The sun sets.
When the sky is illuminated by the setting sun, it looks like weeping blood.
The people in Huangjia Town didn't even last a night before they were brought to a successful end by the extremely skilled officials of Jingzhao Mansion with the force of thunder.
Chencang County Government Office.
Xu Yi sat at the table, constantly flipping through the account books submitted by the household.
On desk one, several piles of files were piled high.
Waves of decay emanated from the file.
One can imagine how long these files were squeezed.
At the same time, Jingzhao government officials kept walking into the lobby.
"Big, twenty-seven river channels have been completed."
"It's a great revelation. The ninety-three river channels in A have been completed."
"It's a great warning. Three thousand victims have arrived at the T-shaped river. It is expected to be completed within two days."
One good news after another kept popping up from the mouths of Jingzhao Mansion officials.
Without any need for Xu Yifen, the official on the side, Kai Yuan, handled the matter in an orderly manner on his own.
It doesn't take a while.
Xu Yi put down the last account book and immediately looked at Kaiyuan: "Zhang Mansion, please take a look at these account books."
Said, Xu Yi handed Zhao Shou a thick stack of account books.
Zhao Shou handed it to Kaiyuan in the hall.
He himself picked up several files from the side and looked at them carefully again.
Zhang Yuanyuan took the account and became more and more frightened.
It is easy to see from the account books that the Huang family in Huangjia Town controls more than 30% of the fertile land in Chencang County.
, this is only what has been found so far.
According to the seizure experience of other counties, the Huang family in Huangjia Town will have at least more than 30% of their hidden fields.
In this way...
Doesn't it mean that the Huang family occupies at least more than 70% of the land in Chencang County?
What is this concept?
This is tantamount to the Huang family controlling 70% of the say in Chencang County!
And Mr. Huang is not much different from the emperor to a certain extent.
If this trend continues, the people in Chencang County may only know Huang Lao but not the emperor.
This... this is simply too outrageous, too lawless!
During the three months of working as a charity, Kai Yuan saw too many powerful and ugly faces of aristocratic families.
But no powerful family can be as ugly as Mr. Huang.
Think of this.
Zhang Kaiyuan couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "No wonder Mr. Huang dared to kill a fifth-rank official in the imperial court."
Those who are accustomed to lawlessness will always forget that the sky is high and the earth is high.
Mr. Huang is undoubtedly the most obvious example.
Zhang Yuanyuan made up his mind and continued to look down.
The second half of the account book records the Huang family's property.
If Kaiyuan hadn't been mentally defensive about having a field, the second half of the account book alone would have been enough to make him take in countless breaths of air.
Nothing else.
Too much.
For a moment, Kaiyuan put away the account books and calmed down.
Then he looked up at Xu Yi and asked, "What do you plan to do with Chencang County?"
Mr. Huang and Magistrate Liu who helped the tiger will definitely die this time.
As soon as County Magistrate Liu is appointed, the position of County Magistrate Chencang will be vacant.
Due to the geographical location of Chencang County, we must win the county magistrate position no matter what! ….

The biggest question now is who will serve as the Chencang County Magistrate!
Hearing this, Xu Yi put down the scroll in his hand and glanced at Zhao Shou.
Zhao Shou immediately understood and walked quickly out of the lobby, carefully closing the door completely.
Without Xu Yi's order, no one could even get ten steps closer to the county government hall.
See the door is closed.
Xu Yi stood up and stepped down from the top position.
As he walked, he asked, "What do you think of Mr. Zhang, Fang Zhong?"
"Fang Zhong, Kaiyuan murmured in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young figure in soap clothes could not help but appear in Kaiyuan's mind.
Xu Yi completely takes over Jingzhao Mansion (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 174: Letter of Voting
At that time, with the help of bribes, he directly took down two bookkeepers.
The position of the post official's master register was soon taken over by the official's first official.
However, Xiang Zhong, who was originally the most promising person to take over as the prison chief, never took over.
To this day, the location of the execution chamber's register is still vacant.
Zhang Kaiyuan originally thought Xu Yi wanted to give Xiang Zhong more tests.
Only then will the position of the criminal master register remain empty, and the burden on Xiang Zhong will continue to increase.
Looking at it now, the test is real, but it is not a test for the sake of a mere criminal.
It's very possible that Xu Yi has been planning for today since then.
Thinking about it, Kaiyuan couldn't help but break out a layer of cold sweat on his back.
If that's true, it would be a bit too scary.
Well, Kaiyuan Yuan and Xu Yi have never been enemies.
Thinking of this, Kaiyuan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He forced himself to calm down and think about Xu Yi's question seriously.
How do you view Fang Zhong?
After a while.
Zhang Kaiyuan looked at Xu Yi and replied: "Think carefully, advance and retreat in a measured way."
Before Xu Yi arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, although Xiang Zhong was a prisoner, his presence in the prison was extremely low.
This is not to say that Xiangzhong's abilities are ordinary.
If his ability is mediocre, Xu Yi will not entrust him with important tasks several times in the future.
It can only be said that this person is careful and good at hiding his weaknesses and judging the situation.
Xu Yi nodded slightly when he heard the words, and then asked: "Master Zhang, do you think this person can serve as the magistrate of Chencang County?"
There is no doubt that Xiang Zhong has this ability.
, there are too many people with this ability.
What Xu Yi needs is loyalty, not ability.
Zhang Kaiyuan naturally understands this.
As soon as Xu Yi finished speaking, Kai Yuan fell into deep thought again.
Whether it is in Chang'an City or on the road of providing work-for-relief.
Xiang Zhong was always placed next to Kai Yuan by Xu Yi.
If you ask who in Jingzhao Mansion has spent the longest time with Fang Zhong.
It is undoubtedly Kaiyuan.
For a moment, every moment of getting along with Fang Zhong flashed through Kaiyuan's mind.
After a while.
Zhang Kaiyuan confirmed: "Based on what my official has seen, Xiang Zhong is completely qualified for the post of Chencang County Magistrate."
Xu Yi nodded slightly when he heard this and said: "Since that's the case, let's let the matter be settled like this for the time being."
...
...
At night.
In the study room of the Chencang County government office.
Xu Yi sat in the Taishi chair, constantly flipping through the accounts in his hands. ….

Since the relief work was carried out, all 160,000 victims around Chang'an City were brought out by Xu Yi.
There have been increases and decreases along the way, and now there are only a few thousand victims left.
After the victims here and the thousands of victims are properly resettled.
Xu Yi will return to Chang'an and step down from his posts as Jing Zhaoyin and the commander-in-chief of disaster relief.
Once you get there, it won't take long for someone to force you and he will become a vassal.
Precisely because of this, Xu Yi had to completely lay down some foreshadowing before returning to Chang'an City.
Waiting for the feudal lord to return.
Just as Xu Yi was busy counting the remaining supplies and gold and silver from the work-for-relief program.
Suddenly there was a sound of light footsteps outside the study.
Immediately following was Fang Zhong's call for permission.
Xu Yi slightly shook the account book in his hand, then put it aside and said calmly: "Come in."
The words are over.
There was an extremely low creaking sound from the door.
Xiang Zhong walked into the book and then gently closed the door again.
After the door is closed again.
Fang Zhong stepped forward and bowed with utmost respect, "My subordinate, Fang Zhong, pays homage to His Highness the Sixth Prince."
The title changed from Mr. Jing Zhaoyin to Sixth Prince Dian. It was obvious that Fang Zhong knew his position very well.
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly and said, "No need to be polite."
The words are over.
Xu Yi (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 174: Letter of Voting
He pointed at the chair in front of him and said, "Sit down."
Xiang Zhong saluted solemnly and thanked him again, and then moved slowly.
He sat opposite Xu Yi with his butt half pulled up in the air.
"Do you know why I'm calling you here?" Xu Yi asked calmly, without any emotion in his voice, as if he was a cold machine.
Xiang Zhong didn't think about it, lowered his head and replied directly: "His Highness summoning his subordinates should be related to today's incident in Huangjia Town."
Yes and no, no and no.
Xu Yi smiled when he heard this and said: "In front of me, there is no need to do this."
The words trailed off.
Fang Zhong then stood up quickly, saluted solemnly and said, "I obey your order."
"Sit down." Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then continued: "In two or three days, all the rivers in Chencang County will be dredged."
"When we get there, I will lead a group of officials and scholars back to Chang'an City."
Xu Yi paused and did not continue. Instead, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
The moment he heard Xu Yi's words, Xiang Zhong already understood Xu Yi's purpose of calling him here.
A group of officials, a group of officials, obviously the group of officials Xu Yi mentioned did not include his Xiang Zhong.
And just because the river is dredged doesn’t mean everything is over.
How will the victims be resettled after the river is dredged?
If the victims want the wages to buy land, who should they turn to?
Who should carry out the interrogation and execution of Mr. Huang and County Magistrate Liu.
Obviously, this is a chance, a pie-in-the-sky opportunity.
Thinking about it, Xiang Zhong's breathing couldn't help but quicken.
Xu Yi didn't wait for more words.
Xiang Zhong quickly stood up, knelt on his knees, and with his forehead touching the ground, he said very solemnly: "Your Highness, please let me go. I would rather die than live up to Your Highness's trust."
It is better to die than to live up to one's fate. ….

When Xu Yi heard this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Then he looked in the direction where he kept kowtowing and said calmly: "Get up."
Sometimes it's so easy to talk to smart people.
"I obey the order!" Fang Zhong promised and then stood up slowly, but this time he would not sit down no matter what.
Xu Yi got straight to the point: "Before I leave, I will appoint you as acting magistrate of Chencang County in the name of the commander-in-chief of Guanzhong disaster relief."
"When I leave, I will leave all the final matters of Chencang County's work-for-relief project to you."
Fang Zhong hurriedly raised his hands and saluted, "Follow the order."
The words are over.
Xiang Zhong asked in a low voice: "May I ask, how should Mr. Huang and Magistrate Liu be dealt with?"
Xu Yi paused, and then said calmly: "Master Huang and County Magistrate Liu have been proven guilty, so naturally they must serve as a warning to others."
"When everything is over, summon the entire county to hear this matter in public. Everything will be carried out in accordance with the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhong hurriedly raised his hands and saluted again: "Follow the order!"
In fact, Xiang Zhong wished he could handle it this way.
After all, this way he can gain a foothold in Chencang County as quickly as possible.
As for the generation before the county magistrate, there is Xu Yi. Fang Zhong has never worried about whether this generation can go or when.
suddenly.
Xiang Zhong suddenly realized something, if it was carried out according to the Da Zhou Law.
Then County Magistrate Liu and others will definitely be sentenced to be executed by the Queen of Autumn.
But when I think about what I saw today at the entrance of Huangjia Town, and Xu Yi and Zhou Hongxi's attitude towards the people of Huangjia Town.
Xiang Zhong instantly realized that the matter was not as simple as he thought.
Xu Yi wants to give Zhou Hongxi a hand, and Zhou Hongxi will definitely not be able to bear the fact that Mr. Huang and others live for half a year longer.
If this is the case, doesn't it mean that during the trial, Mr. Huang and Magistrate Liu must disappear from this world as quickly as possible.
But if that's the case, wouldn't it be inconsistent with what Xu Yi just said about executing it in accordance with the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Just when Xiang Zhong couldn't turn his thoughts away for a while.
Xu Yi coughed lightly and then picked up the tea cup.
Upon seeing this, Fang Zhong hurriedly put aside his thoughts, bowed his hands and left.
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 174: Letter of Voting
The moment he walked out of the room, Fang Zhong happened to meet Zhou Hongxi who was walking towards him.
Xiang Zhong hurriedly saluted and asked, and after a few simple greetings, the two of them passed by each other.
Fang Zhong walked a few steps forward and quietly turned his head to look, only to see Zhou Hongxi walking straight into the study where Xu Yi was.
Looking at the study door that was closed again.
Fang Zhong couldn't help but a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Sign up!" Xiang Zhong murmured in a low voice, and then quickly returned to his building with a relaxed smile on his face.
Mr. Huang and Magistrate Liu must die at the hands of Fang Zhong.
The key to being able to remove the code in front of the county magistrate is that he can understand this and submit the so-called "voting certificate" to Xu Yi.
Xiang Zhong naturally felt relaxed when he understood this.
If you want to have a backer and move up, but don’t want to pay a certain price,
How could there be such a good thing in this world?
...
...
In the study room.
As soon as Zhou Hongxi walked into the book, he kowtowed to Xu Yi without saying a word.
"No, Zhou Da, you absolutely can't do it." Xu Yi was stunned when he saw this, and then quickly stood up and helped Zhou Hongxi up.
Why, when Zhou Hongxi was pushed, he didn't move at all.
Zhou Hongxi said with a sad face: "This is what I paid for the dozens of colleagues who were killed. Your Highness deserves it."
The words are over.
Zhou Hongxi bowed again and said sadly: "This bow is to express my gratitude to Your Majesty. Your Majesty's actions will be seen in my eyes and remembered by this official. If Your Highness succeeds in the future, I will definitely not disappoint you even if I lose my fortune."
While supporting Zhou Hong, Xu Yi said: "My colleagues from the Dushui Qingli Department met for disaster relief. It is only natural for me to avenge them. Lord Zhou does not need to do this."
Having said that, Xu Yi did too much after all.
How could Zhou Hongxi, who had just returned from the county jail, not understand what Xu Yi had done for him and how much he had paid?
Clearly, this was beyond the normal scope of duties.
And Zhou Hongxi himself is very emotional, so how could he not reciprocate the favor? .
