"Bengong sits behind that screen," Shen Changan pointed to the plain fish and bird screen on the side, and said slowly, "How to ask, how to say, adults know it." ”"This palace now believes in you, not that you are innocent.Even if you have not embezzled the money of the court or the people, it is your sin to be careless and neglect your subordinates in your office.It's just that although you have been derelict in your duties, you have not committed an unforgivable sin, and this palace is now willing to give you this opportunity to atone for your sin, and I hope that you will know how to cherish it. ”Taibao replied resignedly, with sincerity between his eyebrows and eyes, and said, "Yes, the lower officials dare not disappoint the trust of His Highness." ”Shen Changan slowly walked behind the plain fish and bird screen, and let the Taibao send guards to deliver the county order.Taibao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said cautiously, "The county magistrate is very busy, and the lower official is going to invite him at this time, but I don't know if he can come ......"
A sneer escaped from Shen Changan's lips, and said, "You said that it was a matter of taxation, and he would definitely not dare not come." ”Taibao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and the central people went as Shen Changan said.Sure enough, as Shen Changan expected, the summoned person had only half a pillar of incense, and a person wearing a python blue official uniform slowly walked into the inner hall.The man was in his early forties, and his eyes were shrewd.The demeanor of the body is not angry and self-assured, which makes people faintly feel that they dare not look directly.The man entered the hall and went straight to the main seat, and after picking up the tea that the Taibao had already prepared, a pair of sharp eyes swept over the Taibao who was trembling and kneeling in the lower seat.He said slowly, "You have someone to spread the word that you want to ask the official about something related to taxation, what is the matter?"
”The Taibao was obviously afraid of this county order, so he wiped the sweat on his forehead before slowly speaking, "My lord, the imperial court recently issued an approval document, saying that Heyang County had leaked 30,000 taels of tax silver, do you know?"
”The county magistrate snorted coldly and said, "This is because you are not doing things well, and you can't even collect taxes, so what's the use of coming to this official now?"
”"My lord, the lower officials were originally suspicious, the amount of taxes paid by the imperial court was not very high, how could the people not be able to pay, and after thinking about it, they still couldn't come up with an answer, after all, in this county government, only the authority of the adults is higher than that of the lower officials, so I still want to ask the meaning of the adults."
The Taibao said respectfully.The county commander sneered, and looked at Taibao's gaze a little more coldly."
What do you mean by that?
According to you, isn't it the official's?
”"No, no, no, the lower official didn't mean that, but the lower official secretly sent someone to inquire about the people, and found that the amount of taxes that the people asked to pay before was not issued by the prefect stipulated by the imperial court, so I came to ask the lord if he knew about it."
The Taibao said with difficulty, as if such a questioning of the prefect had never been done before.Shen Changan looked at this person's almost pedantic respect for the county order, and sighed secretly.You should really have respect for your superiors, but as respectful and submissive as he is, he gives thieves the opportunity to exploit loopholes.It's a tribute that will be used by others.The county commander really had a cold anger between his eyebrows.What do you mean by that......
Suspicious of the officer?
”The county commander slowly raised his eyes and looked at Taibao, with a sneer in his eyes, revealing a little inaudible fierceness.After being reborn, I became Shousuke's favorite
