On the second day, as soon as Ye Sanlang got up, he sat on the grand master's chair in the county government office, covering his mouth and yawning.
"Master Yushi! Master Yushi!" A government servant ran in. In fact, except for the county magistrate, county magistrate, and county captain's family who fled yesterday, the other people were actually just hiding in their own homes. After realizing it was a misunderstanding, everyone started working normally.
"Why are you so panicked?"
"The county magistrate and his family are back. Magistrate Yang and his family's carriages are outside the county government office."
"Oh." Ye Sanlang suddenly became interested. He really wanted to meet the county magistrate whose family fled.
Outside the door, County Magistrate Yang was very anxious at the moment. He was rummaging through boxes and cabinets in his luggage to find something. His heart was full of resentment towards the county magistrate. His official career was not going well to begin with, and this guy even spread false news to deceive him, causing him to become... laughing stock. What made him at a loss was the new censor Ye Sanlang. He was now a popular figure in front of the emperor. How could he appear in a small county government?
At this time, a policeman who was close to him quietly approached the carriage. Magistrate Yang understood what was going on and put his ear to his mouth.
"Sir, that censor seems to have come from the sea. He defeated Nishimoto and his gang of water bandits and was just brought to our county."
Magistrate Yang's eyes lit up. It turns out that's the case. No wonder the whole city thought that Nishimoto was attacking. It turned out that he was wiped out by this guy. If I make him happy and take the credit for wiping out the water bandits, isn't promotion just around the corner? These days, what kind of cats are there?
Thinking of this, he planned to spend a lot of money, and took out a shiny green jade Ruyi, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf.
He stuffed Yu Ruyi in his sleeve and walked out of the carriage with a smile on his face.
At this time, a young-looking man walked out. He was not very old, but full of heroic spirit. This man must be Ye Sanlang. He stepped forward and saluted and said: "I am lowering my official rank to Jiangyin County Magistrate Yang Shunkai, and I am here to meet the Supervisory Censor, Mr. Ye."
Ye Sanlang nodded and said: "No gift, no gift, you are too polite."
The other party looked him up and down and asked: "Are you the County Magistrate Yang who abandoned the people of the county and fled with his whole family when he heard the slightest news?"
His heart suddenly thumped. Why didn't this guy follow the rules of the officialdom? If an ordinary guy wants to be greedy for something, he should be polite to him, why would he talk like this. Could it be that this guy is really that kind of cat? No, he didn't believe it. He had been in the officialdom for many years. When had he ever seen a so-called honest official? Those guys said "no, no, no", but they were itching in their hearts. This guy must think that he doesn't have much to gain, and he will get more benefits by signing himself up. No, we can't let him feel this way.
He smiled and started a new topic: "Master Yushi, you must have stayed at my house last night, right? How did you feel?"
"good."
"Please let me take you to my bedroom. There is good oolong tea here in the lower office. I hit it off with the censor. I wonder if you would like to chat with me for a while?"
Of course Ye Sanlang understood what he meant, but he also had his own plans.
He nodded and said, "I've always wanted to try the oolong tea from Jiangnan. If I still do, I'll bother Magistrate Yang."
Of course Magistrate Yang didn't believe that he was here to drink tea, but of course he was doing it for fun, so he took Ye Sanlang to his bedroom while saluting. He stretched out his head and looked around, and when he saw no one, he closed the door with confidence. .
Not long after, the tea his wife had made was brought in by a servant, and they began to talk.
"I just heard that Yushi Ye led a merchant ship to annihilate that group of notorious water bandits. What a hero!"
"I won't win, it's just a coincidence."
"It's no coincidence. My lord, you have already become famous in the world. No one knows about it. It's not like me. I only got a county magistrate when I was very old. I have been working for many years and still can't get promoted." This, he sighed.
Here it comes, here it comes, this guy is going to make the point, Ye Sanlang thought to himself.
"Ye Yushi, you have a bright future in the future. I think you don't care about your contribution to the extermination of the water bandits. I wonder if you can give this credit to Xiaguan for Xiaguan's sake?" As he said, Swinging his sleeves, he took out a sparkling green jade Ruyi. It was a treasure at first glance.
"This Ruyi is my humble opinion. Please accept it, Your Majesty."
Ye Sanlang took the Ruyi, looked at it, put it on the table, and suddenly asked Yang Shunkai a question that puzzled him: "County Magistrate Yang, do you know what a parent officer is?"
He thought for a while and replied: "A good official who works for the benefit of the people is a parent official."
"Then do you think you are working for the benefit of the people?"
He was stunned. Indeed, he had been in Jiangyin for a few years, but he had not done much good work.
"Then you won't give it to me?"
"Why, I don't want to eat the soft ones, but I want the hard ones?"
"You surnamed Ye, you, a mere supervisory censor of the eighth rank, dare to brag and glare at me, a county magistrate of the seventh rank? If I hadn't called you "sir" for the emperor's sake, how could I have cared about it? You stupid kid?!"
"Hahahaha!" Ye Sanlang laughed loudly, which made Yang Shunkai feel a little flustered. He was just pretending just now. Although the supervisory censor was only an eighth-rank official, he still held supervisory power, which was greater than some officials in the capital.
"Did you hear that clearly? Chief Li?" he said.
"Yes, I heard you clearly. I can testify for you." At this time, another person suddenly walked out of the room. It was Li Song, the only one among the four county magistrates who had not escaped. This person usually served as The people have done a lot of good things, so they are marginalized by the county magistrate, county magistrate and county captain.
"Master Li? What are you doing in my room!"
"In your room?" Chief Li sneered: "This county government house no longer belongs to you!"
"What?!" Magistrate Yang was shocked.
Ye Sanlang took out a shiny object, raised it above his head, and shouted: "Jiangyin County Magistrate Yang Shunkai accepted the order!"
Magistrate Yang was frightened to death. He recognized that thing. It was clearly the gold medal of Emperor Li Longji. It was over, it was over, it was over. He had never thought of this at all, but he could only kneel on the ground immediately and shouted: "Your Majesty Yang Shunkai accepts the order!"
"Now there is Yang Shunkai, the magistrate of Jiangyin County. He has been in office for many years. He does not seek the welfare of the people, but he plunders the people's wealth. He even heard the rumors of the bandit attack and his whole family fled, abandoning the people of the county. Fortunately, Jiangyin County has a chief administrator whose surname is Li Mingsong. , has been in office for many years and has done everything good for the people. Now I am here holding the gold medal to deprive Yang Shunkai of his position as Jiangyin County Magistrate and make him a commoner, while Li Song, the original chief registrar, temporarily takes over the post of County Magistrate. I appreciate this."
Hearing these words, Yang Shunkai rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground. He didn't even have time to say, "I thank you, Lord, for your kindness."
Li Song immediately bowed his head and bowed: "Your Majesty, Li Song, thanks the Lord for your kindness!"
Ye Sanlang leaned down to help him up, glanced at Yang Shunkai with disgust, and said to Li Song: "County Magistrate Li, the people of Jiangyin are now looking forward to you making the decision for them."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Yushi. You got rid of our two major evils as soon as you came. The people will always remember you."
"Oh, by the way, if you didn't mention this, I would have forgotten. Although I escorted a hundred or so people from Nishimoto's group here, there are actually a hundred or so people still staying on Nishimoto's island. This is my hidden secret. Chess. The reason why I tell you to listen is that Nishimoto has been troubled for many years and has accumulated an astonishing wealth. If there is no money for road construction and docks in the future, you can send people to Ghost Island to ask for an audience with their leader Liu Feihu. He I will send someone to bring you the money. In the future, I also hope that you will work hard on these people and conceal the past for me from the court, and I will find a way to deal with your regular appointment."
Li Song prostrated himself to the ground again and said, "I, Li Song, would like to thank Yushi Ye on behalf of my folks in Jiangyin County!"
Ye Sanlang quickly helped him up, feeling really happy. ;
