Changsheng did not sit down from his official position, but stood up and walked to the stage, leaning on the desk behind him to count the people. There were more than 70 officials present, large and small, not too many, but not too few either.
After counting the number of people, he began to speak, "My lords, you must already know that I am the newly appointed censor. From now on, I have the final say in the censorship. Remember it all. I am the superior, and you are the boss." Subordinates, I can be arrogant on weekdays, but you can’t be arrogant."
The officer lectured, and the people below could only listen. Naturally, no one would answer. After a short pause, Changsheng said again, "How did I become the imperial censor? You don't need to worry about it. You shouldn't worry about it. Don't." Talking in private, I don’t like others talking about me in private. You just need to remember that you have to work with me in the future. I don’t care whose people you were before. From now on, you are all my people. As long as you are loyal to the Lord, Do your job with all your heart, and I can't treat you badly. If anyone dares to rip you off and turn your elbows outward, it will not be a matter of losing your official position. I will directly cause your wife to be separated and your family to be destroyed."
Everyone in the hall was a civil servant. They had never seen such an arrogant officer, and had never heard such harsh words. They were frightened and shuddered in their hearts.
Seeing that everyone was scared and pale, Changsheng was quite satisfied. This was the effect he wanted. The best way to prevent betrayal was to increase the price of betrayal to a level that the betrayer could not bear.
"I've already said all my ugly words. If you all knowingly committed the crime, don't blame me for being cruel," Changsheng said coldly, "Don't come crying and begging me when the time comes. It's useless to beg. I won't correct it for you. Opportunity. Don’t eat food in the nest and lay eggs outside, that is courting death, and you will definitely die."
"Some of you should have heard of me," Changsheng left the desk and walked slowly down the hall, "I am the top scholar of Nkowu, and I am a warrior. I hate the intrigues between civil servants and the evil people who pretend to be noble. Trouble, from now on there will be no internal strife and arguments like roosters, dogs and thieves in the Yushitai. There can only be one voice in the Yushitai, and that is my voice."
There was bleeding from the corner of the mouth of the man who had been beaten before. When he raised his hand to wipe the blood, Changsheng saw it and walked straight over. "No matter your superiority or inferiority, I will give you a light slap. How many people's legs have been broken by the Ni family's martial arts competition?" I can’t even remember it myself.”
After Changsheng finished speaking, he turned around and left. This person was already shaking with fear. If he continued to raise his eyebrows and glare, the other person might be frightened and pee.
Speaking of Cao Cao Cao Cao's arrival. As soon as he mentioned the Ni family, a messenger came outside the door and announced, "Your Majesty Xiantai, there is someone in the Ni family who wants to see you."
"Who is it?" Changsheng asked casually.
The officer knew that Chang Sheng was the son-in-law of the Ni family, and he did not dare to offend the Ni family, so he made an exception and brought the visitor in. When Chang Sheng asked a question, someone outside the door responded loudly, "Sir, I am Ni Tai. I know that you are in charge. Shi Tai, feeling very honored, specially ordered me to send you ten thousand taels of silver as a reward for the adults to spend. The silver taels have already arrived, and the carriage is parked outside the mansion."
Hearing Ni Tai's words, everyone in the hall looked at each other. The Ni family was indeed the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, with a casual salary of ten thousand taels. You must know that the salary of a seventh-grade official in office at this time was only twenty-five taels a year.
"Oh, just wait a moment," Chang Sheng turned around and looked around, "Who is in charge of money and food in Yushitai?"
"My lord, I am a lower official." Someone said, it was an old official in his sixties.
"Is our Yushitai short of money?" Changsheng asked.
The old official felt embarrassed when he heard this, "Que."
"How much is missing?" Changsheng asked again.
"The national treasury has not been very full in the past few years. We have not received any salary for more than two years," the old official said. "The money allocated by the Ministry of Revenue every year can only barely sustain..."
Before the old official could finish speaking, Changsheng waved his hand and interrupted him, "Okay, you go out and collect the money, sort out the salary owed by the imperial court to the officials of the headquarters, and all will be repaid later."
Everyone was scared to death one moment, and then they were overjoyed and got the money right away.
The old official responded respectfully and went out to accept the money. Ni Tai's voice came from outside the door again, "Sir, Miss asked you whether you will come back for dinner tonight?"
The atmosphere in the hall was originally very tense, but Ni Tai's shout made it less serious. Changsheng knew that the Ni family had something to discuss with him, so he said casually, "Go back and eat. Hey, get something for people to eat. Let's have a banquet." I can’t get used to things like that in the guest house.”
Ni Tai responded happily and took the old official to move the money.
Chang Sheng frowned and scolded, "We, the Yushitai Inspector Baiguan, and these guys from the Household Department dare to deduct our money and food. We must find an opportunity to show them some shame."
Being interrupted by Ni Tai, Changsheng couldn't regain his previous emotions and forgot where he was talking, so he turned to look at Datou, who understood and pointed to his leg.
Changsheng didn't understand Datou's meaning, so he simply restarted the conversation, "I'm young, and I won't pretend to be mature with you, but you can't be disrespectful just because I'm young, and I don't need you to be groveling to me, but you must be polite when talking to me. Be polite. Also, I don’t believe in the idea that good medicine tastes bitter and good advice offends the ears. If you find any fault on my part, you can remind me tactfully, but please don’t say unpleasant things to me. Even if you are right, I don’t like it. listen."
Hearing Chang Sheng's words, everyone in the hall nodded. What Chang Sheng said was human nature, and almost everyone had the same thoughts. The difference was that Chang Sheng dared to say it directly.
Changsheng said again, "Even if you don't like what I do, don't try to stop me from correcting it. You can only give me suggestions at most, and I may not necessarily adopt them. Don't be smart, think of yourself as a loyal minister, or flatter me by claptrap." Suggesting opinions will not earn my respect, it will only arouse my disgust."
Everyone nodded after hearing this. If other people had thought about these words in their hearts, they would never say them out loud. Chang Sheng dared to say them out, which shows that he has a true youthful heart and passionate temperament.
"By the way, I forgot to introduce you to you, this one's surname is Yang, and this one's surname is Fu," Changsheng pointed to Yang Kai and Da Touchong to introduce to everyone, "Both of them are both Jinshi in the martial arts examinations, and they are also the imperial guards appointed by the emperor. Shi, if you have any comments or suggestions in the future, you can mention them to them. They are not as busy as me and have time to listen."
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, the two of them bowed their hands in front of everyone as a gift, and everyone hurriedly returned the gift.
"I originally wanted to say a few more words, but I guess you don't have the heart to listen anymore. You should all be thinking about receiving your salary," Chang Sheng said with a smile, "As I said before, I am the most loyal person. As long as you are loyal, Fuji, do your job with all your heart, your affairs are my business, whether it is official or private matters, I will give you my full help. If you have evil intentions and turn your elbows outward, then don't blame me for being ruthless and causing harm to my wife and children. "
Chang Sheng spoke straightforwardly, and everyone understood clearly what he valued most and what he hated the most. They all expressed their determination to do their best and assist him loyally.
"Okay, let's get down to business," Changsheng said. "Some of you who arrived late may not understand the situation. Feng Zhongcheng worked too hard. I asked him to go home and rest. I won't be able to see him in the future. Please don't make random suspicions."
Changsheng then pointed at those who were beaten, "You guys, don't cry in despair. Even though Mr. Fu is only three and a half feet tall, he is a martial arts master. If he exerts his full strength, he can kill you with one punch."
Hearing what Changsheng said, the person who was beaten hurriedly responded in embarrassment, and even had to thank Datou for his mercy.
"We've been beaten, and I can only blame you for your lack of vision. Let's do this. We will pay you a salary later, and each of you will receive an extra year of salary." Changsheng said.
The few people who were beaten hurriedly refused in fear. Chang Shengyou's attitude had already set them down, so how could they get any more money.
"Stop being polite, it's settled. Let's take a walk and see how much ten thousand taels is?" Changsheng walked towards the door.
Everyone hurriedly followed behind.
Chang Sheng was in a good mood, but the people behind him had mixed feelings. What was good news was that this guy was a God of Wealth, and he was very loyal. As long as you didn't alienate him, you would definitely not suffer any loss if you followed him honestly. What's worrying is that Chang Sheng was born in martial arts. He was successful at a young age and acted daringly. No one can guess what extraordinary things he will do in the future. If you follow him, you may be implicated.
At this time, most of the officials were present, so Changsheng took the opportunity to ask about the internal affairs of the Yushitai. The Yushitai had everything except money, including a canteen for eating, stables for raising horses, and prisons for people. In addition to more than seventy There are officials, big and small, and more than 300 yamen. Three hundred yamen is not a small number. You must know that at this time, a county government only has about 40 yamen. The most important thing is that the main task of the Yushitai is to supervise all officials. Instead of arresting people to handle the case, three hundred would be enough.
When everyone went to the front yard, the carriage had already arrived. Changsheng thought there were several carriages, but who would have thought that there was only one. Thinking about it carefully, it was ten thousand taels, not ten thousand catties, and ten thousand taels was only about six hundred catties. .
The four boxes were not very big, but the silver was relatively heavy. It was too heavy to lift. Changsheng stepped forward to open the box and saw that it was filled with white silver collars. At this time, most of the official silver was silver. The image of the silver collar is like a rectangle held in the middle. Each silver collar is exactly fifty taels.
Changsheng didn't feel so shocked, but the people behind him were shocked. Seeing this image, Changsheng said with disdain, "The Yushitai, which supervises all officials, is short of silver. Is it because you can't do errands, or is it the civil and military officials?" Can’t do anything?”
As soon as Chang Sheng said these words, everyone's hearts beat faster and their blood surged. Chang Sheng's implication was very obvious. Life with such a commander would definitely be easy in the future.
After accepting the silver, Chang Sheng ordered people to go out to buy things and cook a banquet in the dining hall. Chang Sheng originally did not drink alcohol, but this time he activated his spiritual energy to dissolve the hangover, and had a good time with his subordinates. Drinking has both advantages and disadvantages, and the advantage is that drinking alcohol If you do something bad later, you will have an excuse to explain it. The disadvantage is that after drinking, you will not be clear-headed and will easily do bad things.
Everyone didn't know that he was using his spiritual energy to relieve hangovers. They just thought that he was really intoxicated. After drinking so much, half of the officials in the headquarters were drunk, and the rest just gritted their teeth and held on.
Although he had the power of spiritual energy to dissolve alcohol, Changsheng was still in a daze after drinking too much. Seeing that he could no longer drink, he called the captain of the headquarters and ordered him to urgently summon a hundred yamen servants.
The captain didn't know why and asked in confusion, "Sir, what do you want to do?"
"There is a secret report that Wu Qi, a doctor in the Ministry of Punishment, has accused the enemy of collaborating with the enemy and treason, conspiring to rebel, and is a poor Taoist... I want to arrest him..."
