Nightwatcher Chapter 193: This is the government office
Passing through two states and three counties, the governor team finally arrived at the main city of Yunzhou-Baidi City.
There is a historical allusion to the origin of the name of Baidi City, which is a matter of the previous dynasty. About 1,300 years ago, Yunzhou suffered a severe drought and thousands of miles of red land.
The common people have no income, and their lives are lost.
This year, a strange beast came from overseas. Its body was like a deer, covered with snow-white scales, and it had a pair of horns, horseshoes, and snake tail.
Where it passes, there are dense clouds and continuous rainstorms. This beast has been in Yunzhou for more than a month, filling all reservoirs in Yunzhou, nourishing dry rivers and lakes, and solving the drought in Yunzhou.
The imperial court considered it to be an auspicious beast and named it the White Emperor.
Xu Qi'an looked at the towering outline of Baidi City and asked with a smile: "Then is this legend true or not?"
The governor Zhang, who raised the curtain and looked at Baidi City in the distance, talked about this allusion and nodded:
"It should be true, otherwise it will not be recorded in history books. Droughts and floods are common occurrences, and historians will not fabricate history for this. However, since then, no one has ever seen Rui Beast Bai Di ."
People are obviously overseas monsters, or even sea beasts. Maybe they came to Kyushu just to travel. Seeing the drought in Yunzhou, I didn’t like it, so I took action to change the environment... Xu Qi'an "analyzed from a scientific point of view." Said:
"Adults' opinion."
After finishing speaking, he continued to look at the city wall, and a poem emerged in his heart: Among the colorful clouds of Emperor Baidi, the thousand miles of Jiangling returned in one day, the sound of the apes on both sides of the strait could not be heard, and the light boat had passed the Wanzhong Mountain.
"Thousands of miles of Jiangling will be paid back in one day...it's so extravagant. If it's me, it will be today and tomorrow, January 31st, and I will be willing to pay it back." Xu Qi'an said.
He couldn't help but think of the travel advertisement he had seen before, and encouraged senior white-collar workers to fly directly to Thailand after get off work on Friday, and return home on Sunday.
Everyone is a modern Li Taibai.
The gatekeeper of Baidi City stopped everyone, and after reading the documents issued by the court, he respectfully let go.
After entering the city, Xu Qi'an looked around, and saw many passers-by with hanging swords and swords in the bustling crowd.
Dafeng's control over weapons is very strict, from the state capital to the counties and counties, and no swords are allowed in the city. Unless it is a special profession, such as a dart master.
But even a dartist can only be equipped with weapons when he is on a mission.
"Is this a characteristic of Yunzhou?" Xu Qi'an muttered.
At this time, Governor Zhang raised the curtains again and said to Xu Qi'an: "Ning Yan, you can send these merchants home. Don't return the goods. Let the merchants take the account books and come to the station tomorrow to check and retrieve the goods."
Xu Qi'an moved in his heart, "What about Zhao Long's goods?"
Governor Zhang said: "Naturally, it was sent back to others. Then Zhao Long and the **** were all killed, and the escort's family must be compensated. Now that Zhao Long is dead, sending the goods back is also considered to make up for the loss of others. Up."
Xu Qi'an gave a thumbs up: "My lord is really a good eel."
Governor Zhang frowned upon hearing this: "Why did you say this?"
"Nothing, nothing." Xu Qi'an turned to find Song Tingfeng, told him the matter, and told him to do it.
"Why let me run errands." Song Tingfeng was not convinced: "As if I were your subordinate, we are obviously equal."
Xu Qi'an turned his head and shouted: "My lord governor, Song Tingfeng shirks and buckles him."
Song Tingfeng said hurriedly: "I will go."
Turning around, I went to Zhu Guangxiao, told him about the matter, and told him to do it.
Zhu Guangxiao said depressed: "Didn't Ning Yan let you do it."
Song Tingfeng said: "Xu Ning banquet, Zhu Guangxiao prevaricates and shamelessly."
"..." Zhu Guangxiao turned his horse's head in a dull voice, called several Hu Benwei, and went to work.
Two **** got together and said with emotion:
"Gwanghyo is really an honest man who is working hard."
"Yes, yes, whether in bed or official business."
.....
All commanders.
Yang Chuannan is in his early forties this year. He is a calm and peaceful scholar. He also has an identity, a fifth-grade martial artist.
Yang Chuannan was born in a family of military commanders and is talented. He likes to study martial arts and even read books. In Yuanjing's 12th year, he was a scholar of the ranks.
Yuan Jing was assigned to Yunzhou in 16 years. Because of his merits in suppressing bandits, he rose to the position of commander. Become one of the three most powerful people in Yunzhou.
Yang Chuannan, who was sitting in the hall dealing with official duties, suddenly raised his head. A few seconds later, there was the sound of footsteps, and a woman in light armor strode forward, but no officials stopped him along the way.
She is tall, with a saber hanging from her waist and a silver gun on her back. There is a sharp face with melon seeds, and the features are delicate and beautiful, but the woman is not weak, but heroic.
Besides, she wore a tall ponytail, showing her beautiful forehead.
"The governor has entered the city." The first sentence she entered the door pointed at the core of the problem, simply.
Yang Chuannan paused, nodding slightly, "I see."
"Emperor Yuan Jing, who suffered a thousand swords, became immortal. The emperor of the world still wants to live forever. It is wishful thinking." She opened her smallpox: "##*...."
"Miaozhen!" Yang Chuannan frowned.
Li Miaozhen sneered, "I don't eat royal food."
She leaned the silver gun against the wall, sat cross-legged on the coffee table in the reception area, took off the saber and lay it on her knees, and asked:
"If the governor is there, you have to hand over the right to send troops. This is a great rule. What do you plan to do."
"Since it is a rule, of course I can only do it." Yang Chuan said.
Li Miaozhen nodded: "I will help you."
Yang Chuannan glanced at her and shook his head helplessly: "So many people on the rivers and lakes are willing to serve you, and they are not wronged. Feiyan heroine, this official accepts your favor, but pay attention to proportion. There are golden gongs in the accompanying team. With a dignified Four-Rank, out of the rivers and lakes, you are a hero."
Li Miaozhen didn't care: "What are you afraid of? If you are less than the third rank, you can't beat the crowd tactics."
....
"The food in Yunzhou is a bit numb, a bit spicy, and I like to put spices. I don't like the dishes here....I often eat spicy food, will I not get hemorrhoids?"
In the inn, Xu Qi'an spit out while eating hot meals.
The lobby was crowded with fighters and Hu Benwei, and a table sat eight people, barely enough to accommodate.
There are four post stations in Baidi City. This is the largest one, with a courtyard and two three-story buildings next to each other. There is one postman and seven postmen.
For safety's sake, Yang Yingying also had to stop at the inn. She sat at a table by herself and quietly bowed her head to eat.
The young woman's figure is plump and attractive. When sitting, her dress clings to her hips, drawing a plump curve.
Xu Qi'an found Song Tingfeng staring at someone's ass, and kicked him under the table: "What are you looking at?"
After scolding, he glanced at it himself.
"Look what's wrong, everyone else is watching." Song Tingfeng whispered.
That's the way men are. When they see beautiful women, they will always look more unconsciously, unable to control their gazes. Unless the daughter-in-law is by her side, she can resist it with great perseverance.
"It's uncomfortable if I don't look at it or not." Song Tingfeng muttered.
Governor Zhang has just issued an order that during the Yunzhou period, he is not allowed to go to Jiaofangsi or leave the post unless he has a mission.
Xu Qi'an raised his hand and shook it hard.
"What are you doing?" Song Tingfeng said blankly.
"This is called Indestructible Grip, you can learn it in private."
After the meal, Governor Zhang invited Xu Qi'an and Jiang Luzhong to discuss matters in the room. The governor of Yushi background looked at the two experienced golden gongs and said:
"Yunzhou has cancelled the knife ban due to banditry. Therefore, it is safer at night compared to daytime because the curfew is particularly strict.
"Jiang Jinluo needs to protect the official all the time. The investigation will be given to Ning Yan for the time being. You can dispatch the better players in the inn at your will."
...Yes, it's really a tool man. Xu Qi'an looked at Governor Zhang without speaking.
The governor-sama explained: "In the first few days, the official had to socialize more. I also need to feel the bottom of the Yunzhou officialdom."
Well...Xu Qi'an accepted this reason: "I see, it's a humble job to do my best."
Governor Zhang nodded in satisfaction and asked: "How are you going to proceed with the case?"
"Go to the government office first to ask for Zhou Min's posthumous relics, and then visit his house." Xu Qi'an said.
"No need to dig a grave for an autopsy?" Governor Zhang frowned.
"Just wait for the adult to ask," Xu Qi'an laughed: "People have been dead for more than half a month, their rotting skin is swollen, and it breaks with one prick, and the smelly corpse water can be drunk to fullness."
Jiang Luzhong, who had just eaten his meal, turned black, and Governor Zhang retched.
"That humble job retired." Xu Qi'an slipped away.
Leaving the room and going downstairs, he summoned four gongs, including Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao, a familiar silver gong, and six tigers and guards, riding horses to the palace.
Zhou Min was a commissioned official of the imperial court. When the imperial official dies, the government office is responsible for an autopsy and confirm the cause of death. For officials like Zhou Min whose family is not in the local area, the government office has to take care of his belongings, waiting for the family of the deceased or the court to fetch them.
Xu Qi'an controlled the horse speed, and occasionally glanced at the map of Baidi City given by the postmen. After exploring for nearly an hour, he finally saw the gate of the palace.
"According to the rules of the officialdom, 30% of this kind of relics were handled, and even 50% were greedy. I don't know how many relics of Zhou's experience can be kept." Yin Luo, surnamed Tang, said with emotion.
This is the first time Xu Qi'an has heard of such unspoken rules, and his face sinks: "Is there any punishment for such incidents in the Dafeng law?"
"Of course there is," Tang Yinluo said: "Sweeping the court official's inheritance, depending on the value of the property, ranging from fifty court staff to fines for dismissal of the court staff."
Xu Qi'an nodded, and suddenly asked: "The same is true for the gangmen's yamen?"
"How dare it, Wei Gongming ordered it to be forbidden. Moreover, our guards are not the same as these officials. The guards of the same group fight side by side and go to the brothel together. Who dares to steal, be brothers? I don't agree either." Tang Yinluo explained.
Song Tingfeng smiled and nodded: "Right, Ning Yan you sacrificed that day. Who dares to embezzle your pension, I will kill him."
I always feel that something is wrong with what you said... Xu Qi'an didn't bother to complain about this squinted eyes.
After entering the government office and identifying his identity, an official of the seventh grade in a green robe came out to greet him, claiming to be a government experience.
"In order to prevent subordinates from stealing finances, all the things Zhou experienced are in the warehouse of the government office."
This experience in charge of receiving and dispatching, teller, and warehouse, led Xu Qi'an and others to the warehouse, carrying a bunch of heavy keys in his hand, skillfully finding the correct one, and opening the iron door of the warehouse.
Among Zhou Min's relics, there are calligraphy and painting, clothing, antiques, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, etc. Xu Qi'an looked over everything in detail.
After seeing the legacy of only thirty taels of silver, he said in a deep voice: "Experience sir, isn't that right? Zhou experienced a high-ranking sixth grade, worked for more than 20 years, and saved one or two in a year. It's more than that. "
"My lord, that's twenty taels." Fu Shi said with a smile.
You dare to follow me?
Xu Qi'an stared at him, "Swallowing the court official’s inheritance, depending on the value of the property, ranging from fifty court rods to fines for dismissal of court rods."
Zhou Min was the dark child who beat the guards. He died in the line of duty. The family members in his hometown still don't know the bad news. People can't come back from death, Xu Qi'an can't do anything, but he can do it by keeping the other's relics and returning them to his family as much as possible.
Should do too.
It was actually a stunned green....The mansion experience is old fried dough sticks, and he spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Xu was indulged in beauty or other pastimes that week, spending money like water. Anyway, that’s it. Property."
He has a confident posture~IndoMTL.com~ with a playful smile.
Inheritance was the first thing that the government had dealt with. The government said as much as possible, not convinced? Have the ability to make dead ghosts return to their yang.
Xu Qi'an pointed to his waist card: "Yunzhou officials, don't you know how to beat others?"
The government experience said "Heh": "It is natural that this official has heard of it when the guardian is in charge of monitoring a hundred officials."
That's just I heard that you haven't experienced it....You lack the brutal beating to beat people...Xu Qi'an raised his foot and kicked his belly.
Boom...
Fu's fat body flew upside down and hit the wall, and the shocking dust fell "smoggy", painfully shrank into a shrimp shape, and his facial features twisted into a ball. It took a few seconds before he groaned.
Xu Qi'an drew a knife and put it on the back of his neck, looking down from a commanding perspective: "This official followed the governor to Yunzhou to investigate the case. He has the right to act cheaply. Even if he kills you, the governor can take it down for me. Believe it or not. ?"
The government experienced a few breaths, and emphasized in disbelief: "This is the government office."
