Not to mention Dali Temple, but also other government offices, when someone comes, they must report it first.
But when the prince came, the officials of Dali Temple had to line up to greet him.
This means that now Changxian has changed his temper. Before, he didn't even have to come over specially. He sent a guard to inform him, and Tao Shaozhang rushed over to see the prince.
The chief minister of Dali Temple was not there, so Tao Shaozhang walked out quickly with a group of officials, stood up and saluted according to their rank.
Chu Qing has been unable to figure out one thing.
Regardless of whether it is ancient times or later generations, as long as the leader comes, even if the mother is due to give birth, she has to run out to greet her. After a lot of tossing, half an hour if it is faster, half an hour if it is slower, and half a day will pass. I don’t know if the leader is idle. When subordinates are in a panic, subordinates are in a panic, as if their legs are filled with lead when no one greets the leader.
Tao Shaozhang saluted and saw Chu Qing standing behind Changxian with a look of surprise on his face.
Chu Qing smiled slightly.
It can be seen that Xiao Tao still cares about him. He is probably like Qiu Wanshan, thinking that he is dead in the palace.
On behalf of his father, Chang Xian greeted the officials of Dali Temple who seemed to be working hard but were actually sleeping in the squad room with a friendly and practical expression.
The atmosphere between the two parties was very friendly, serious yet lively. Changxian not only reflected the nobility of the imperial power, but also the closeness and down-to-earthness of the Tian family. The officials of Dali Temple were neither arrogant nor humble, which not only showed that they were lickers but also reflected their The arrogance of civil servants shows that they are a group of proud licking dogs.
Changxian, who was no taller than Chu Qing's neck, stood there and kept smiling and nodding.
It took him enough time to burn a stick of incense before Tao Shaozhang led Chang Xian and Chu Qing to the main hall, while secretly guessing how the two people got involved.
Chu Qing didn't want to go to the main hall, where there were too many people, so he casually said to go to Tao Shaozhang's cell to talk about things.
Tao Shaozhang, who was leading the way, was slightly startled, and quickly gave Chu Qing a wink. The general meaning was that no matter how big or small, King Langya, a little kid, was still here.
Chang Xian was so smart and said with a smile: "Then go to Tao Shaoqing's class room. Master Chu will take charge of everything."
"Pestle corpse?" Tao Shaozhang was confused: "Who is pestle corpse?"
Chu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and pointed at himself.
Tao Shaozhang asked subconsciously: "Why does His Highness the Second Prince call you master?"
Changxian coughed lightly, and Tao Shaozhang blushed: "I am presumptuous and have lost my identity. Your Highness, please don't blame me."
Saying this, Tao Shaozhang became even more curious.
When they arrived at the class room, Tao Shaozhang made tea and gave Chang Xian the seat of honor. His eyes were rolling, and he couldn't figure out why Chang's second son was so respectful to Chu Qing.
Chu Qing waved his hand to tell Tao Shaozhang to stop working in vain, and said with a smile: "His Majesty has ordered His Royal Highness King Langya to be responsible for the tax inspection, starting with Xiao County."
"Is this true?!" Tao Shaozhang was so excited: "Is it really possible to investigate, a big investigation, a bad investigation, an honest investigation?"
"Then why should I take it seriously?" Chu Qing said angrily: "Do you think I'm talking nonsense to you, or do you think His Majesty is talking nonsense?"
"you."
Chu Qing: "..."
Changxian looked at Chu Qing and said with a smile, "Master Chu and Tao Shaoqing are old acquaintances?"
Chu Qing nodded.
Changxian asked again: "Best friend?"
Chu Qing hesitated for a moment. He couldn't tell whether he would hand it over or not. Anyway, he was currently engaged in business cooperation with his eldest maid.
Tao Shaozhang came to his senses and nodded quickly: "Xiaguan and Mr. Chu are close friends, deep friends, friends in adversity, friends of life and death, friends who help each other!"
"Since Tao Shaoqing is a close friend of Master Chu, I feel at ease." Chang Xian nodded slightly: "I don't know much about arithmetic, let alone auditing. My father just wanted me to have a name, and do tax inspections. We still need to rely on Master Chu and Tao Shaoqing to help."
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's your job as a lower official."
Tao Shaozhang was quite excited. Huang Laosi finally took charge of Xiao County and brought the second prince out of the palace.
But as excited as he was, Tao Shaozhang was still a little awkward.
Is the word "teacher" so worthless now? His father is the prince's young master, and Chu Qing has become a "teacher".
But classmate Xiaotao doesn't care either. He and his father are doing their own thing. It doesn't matter whether they compete with his father for their jobs. He only cares about Xiao County.
In fact, at the very beginning, Tao Shaozhang received a report from an "informant", saying that Xiao County was rotten to the core. The great devil Li Mu of Xiao County was corrupt and perverted the law, and the people were miserable.
As a young minister of Dali Temple, how could Xiao Tao sit idly by and investigate. In this investigation, corruption was discovered. After that, there was no further investigation and evidence collection.
In fact, when things develop to this point, Xiao Tao just handles business affairs without any personal grudges.
Unexpectedly, during the investigation and evidence collection process, Xiao Tao felt so aggrieved.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. When we arrived in Xiao County, the local county boss, Li Mu, the devil king of Xiao County, made Xiaotao's classmate lose face. To put it harshly, it was called being a slave to the enemy. He cooperated with the investigation, but in fact he did not use Tao Shaozhang as a source of food at all. To put it mildly, he was just playing tricks on Tao Shaozhang like a magic pen.
Ask someone to ask, everyone is like hiding from the plague god.
I was staying at an inn and my things were rummaged through.
Have a meal and take laxatives.
The most disgusting thing is that after sleeping, the horse was stolen.
Went to the Xiaoxian County Office and had a few arguments. Li Mufei said that Tao Shaozhang was unreasonable in using his power to suppress people. If he couldn't argue with him, he would beat him.
What is Tao Shaozhang? He is a literati, and he is a reasonable literati. He is no match for an official like Li Mu. He took a young boy and went away in an angry manner, but came back disgraced. This is not the only time. The matter is no longer just a matter of tax inspection, but also mixed with a large degree of personal grudges.
It can be seen from the inside. Li Mu is a small county magistrate. Even the young minister of Dali Temple dares to bully and bully him. You can imagine how he treats the people under his rule. This also shows how rampant the Li family is. You know Xiao County is only half a day's journey from the capital, and it can be considered to be right next to the emperor's feet.
This is where Tao Shaozhang's grievance lies.
After all, he is the young minister of Dali Temple. He went to Xiao County twice and became younger and younger. The first time he went, he was played like a son. The second time he went, he was played like a grandson. The big devil of Xiao County was still there. He said that if he still dares to come for the third time, he will be asked to go back and recreate it.
First there was grievance, and then there was upset.
The accounts have been calculated, but there is no more ironclad evidence. If it were someone else, the accounts alone would be enough to capture the person. However, the Li family is different. More ironclad evidence is needed. Only with a mountain of ironclad evidence can the case be completely confirmed.
Then classmate Xiao Tao became very upset. The emperor kept doing Tai Chi and obviously didn't take it seriously.
After being upset for a while, Tao Shaozhang became angry.
The anger came from the emperor's indifference, and from the fact that he suddenly knew that this situation in Xiao County had become the norm.
Therefore, the angry Tao Shaozhang has already made up his mind to "I will fight with you". He will investigate, just investigate, even if he can't find anything, he won't do anything anyway, just investigate. The emperor doesn't care, right? Oh, yes, I will file a memorial every day. Yelling in the court every day, making your presence felt every day, I'm annoying you to death, it's embarrassing, we are all embarrassed together, I, Tao Shaozhang, am embarrassed, dragging the emperor to lose face, dragging the Li family to lose face, everyone is embarrassed together, of course, followed by others who are embarrassed, and His father Tao Yao.
But now, the aggrieved, upset and angry Tao Shaozhang finally saw the light of day. The faces of the second prince Changxian and Chu Qing exuded the dawn of hope.
Tao Shaozhang wanted to make a living. He didn't want to prove that he was great. He wanted to tell everyone in Xiao County that what he had lost must be taken back with his own hands. Given time, he must go to Xiao County again. He wanted to be a father. He wanted to The most important thing about being a grandfather is that he has to get his horse back.
