Chapter 743 Dealing with the Prefect

Chapter 743 Dealing with the Prefect
"Stop!" Xiao Ke immediately grabbed his collar.

"My lord, I really don't know, please let me go." The man actually knelt down and begged for mercy.

Ye Yan noticed that the man had a lot of bruises on his hands, and motioned for Xiao Ke to grab him.

"Don't worry, I don't eat people, if I ask you anything, just answer honestly." Ye Yan suppressed the anger in his heart.

"In this yamen of yours, I saw the two of you up and down, and the one who reported it has run away, so don't expect to run away." Chang Qing's tone was threatening.

"Tell me about the bruise on your hand first." Ye Yan asked sharply.

It stands to reason that it is normal for these servants to have injuries on their bodies.

But this person's wound is not right, and his physical condition doesn't look like an injury from a mission.

"It was the little one who fell and injured himself." The man replied stammeringly.

Ye Yan glanced at him impatiently, people who open their eyes and talk nonsense are what Ye Yan hates the most.

"You have told a lie once, you should know who I am, presumably that person has told you just now."

The people kneeling on the ground felt guilty in an instant. Just now they knew that the person who came was Nanli Wang, so they thought of packing up and running away.

He didn't expect to bump into Ye Yan right after he came out, he could only admit that he was unlucky.

"My lord, I was wrong, and I will never lie to you again." The officer looked panic-stricken.

Everyone knows that Nanli city lord has clear rewards and punishments, and those who oppose him will not end well.

"By the way, where have all the people in your yamen gone?" Ye Yan's patience was about to be exhausted.

Changqing was sweating for the man kneeling on the ground, and he dared to play tricks.

Seeing that he was still dawdling and afraid to speak, Ye Yan didn't lose his temper immediately.

"But it's okay, what are you afraid of in front of me?" Ye Yan looked at him panicked, and there was nothing he could do.

The man sighed heavily: "Sir, the injuries on my body were caused by the prefect. There is no one in this yamen because I was sent out by the prefect to collect grain and hunt game."

Ye Yan frowned instantly, and his face suddenly became uglier.

"Get up and continue." Ye Yan laughed a little.

Xiao Ke and Chang Qing knew Ye Yan, and this was his extremely angry reaction.

The man stood up tremblingly: "My lord, I don't dare to say too much, the magistrate is in the mansion, how about you."

Ye Yan understands that the officials dare not say anything more, because they are afraid that the officials will protect each other and offend both sides.

"Changqing, search." Ye Yan said to Changqing.

Logically speaking, he should have waited for the notification from his subordinates and let the magistrate come out to see Ye Yan.

In the current scene, there is no regard for etiquette, Ye Yan feels that this place has been corrupted to the root.

Xiao Ke followed Chang Qing to find someone, and the prefect was found in his room.

Changqing smelled a strong smell of wine from a long distance away. This mellow aroma is like old wine, and the price is not cheap.

Pushing open the door, there were two men and a woman inside, and the two women were cuddling next to the man.

"Oh, who is it?" A woman woke up with a very impatient tone.

The woman rubbed her eyes, looked at the door, and cursed: "Bold, who let you break in."

The woman's voice was very harsh, and Chang Qing was extremely disgusted.

Chang Qing glanced at the people around him, and the guards around him immediately stepped forward.

The moment the two guards approached the man, they subconsciously covered their mouths and noses. The man was as drunk as a dead dog.

"Master, what are you doing?" Another woman also woke up.

"You bastards, how dare you come and mess around in the magistrate's mansion." The woman continued to curse
"It's too noisy, shut their mouths!" Chang Qing just felt noisy.

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ke stepped forward to pick up the rag on the table and blocked the woman's mouth.

"Woooooo~" The two women were forcibly dragged out.

The man was completely unconscious, and he was holding on to the pillar next to him. He was so fat that the two guards couldn't hold him back.

"Go and call Ye Yan." Chang Qing said to Xiao Ke.

Ye Yan got the summons and rushed over in a short while.

Looking at the mess all over the place, the table is full of delicious dishes, and there is meat everywhere, so happy.

"Is this the magistrate?" Ye Yan asked the person beside him.

"Yes, City Lord Ye." The man still looked guilty and nodded.

The two women next to her broke into a cold sweat when they heard Ye Yan's address.

Ye Yan almost laughed out loud, the drunk man in front of him was the prefect.

"Give me his clothes off." Ye Yan wrote lightly.

"Xiao Ke, go fetch water."

After Ye Yan gave his orders, the people around him acted immediately.

Xiao Ke brought in four or five buckets of water, all of which had just been pumped from the well.

"Splash it on me!" Ye Yan said.

The subordinate picked up the bucket and poured it on the magistrate's head.

As soon as he was stimulated by the cold water, the magistrate immediately reacted, and his obese body shivered.

"Splash again." Ye Yan said easily.

Immediately afterwards, another bucket of ice water was poured on it.

The magistrate was completely frozen awake, and the first thing he said after waking up was: "It's raining!"

Ye Yan suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at the jumping clown in front of him.

"Are you awake?" Ye Yan asked sharply.

The magistrate only felt cold, why his clothes were gone, and rubbed his eyes before he realized it.

"Who are you!" The magistrate thought that bandits had entered the Yamen.

"Are you the magistrate of this yamen?" Ye Yan looked at him coldly.

"That's right, who are you, dare to enter my mansion and cause trouble." The magistrate sobered up a little bit, and spoke loudly.

"Open your eyes wide and see who it is!" Xiao Ke flashed Ye Yan's city lord token in front of his eyes.

"Ye... City Lord!" The prefect knelt down with a plop.

"Bring them all to the hall!" Ye Yan said.

The smell here was disgusting, Ye Yan couldn't stand it.

Ye Yan examined it carefully, and at the same time called back all the officials sent out.

It has to be said that the efficiency of the officials in this yamen is extremely fast, and they all returned to the yamen soon.

Ye Yan was fortunate that, except for the magistrate, everyone in this yamen was still a legitimate person.

In a short period of time, Ye Yan got to know the whole yamen well, and all the subordinates dared not speak out against the magistrate.

Apart from suppressing the common people, this magistrate does nothing serious.

Ye Yan personally opened the granary to release grain, and first solved the problem of food and clothing for the common people.

Right now, this magistrate is useless, Ye Yan decided to promote a new magistrate.

Ye Yan listened to the recommendations of other people in the yamen and quickly selected a new prefect.

Due to the special situation in this place, Ye Yan has the right to directly decide. As long as everyone has no objection, Ye Yan will directly promote.

The new prefect was the leader of the official mission at that time, and was imprisoned by the old prefect before being promoted by Ye Yan.

The reason is because this young man accused the prefect of being a bastard and inaction in front of everyone.

With the killing of chickens and monkeys this time, the subordinates did not dare to speak too much, and could only act for him against their conscience.

The local people's original life is flat, and it is not a problem to meet the daily food and clothing.

But later the magistrate's enjoyment intensified, so he searched for people's fat everywhere, in order to make himself refreshed for a while.

Ye Yan opened a warehouse to release grain, and asked every household to come to collect money and rice noodles.

For a while, the lives of the people were no longer concerned, and Ye Yan finally stabilized the situation temporarily.

Ye Yan stayed here for the time being, the magistrate's mansion was full of smoke, so Changqing and others found Ye Yan a residence in the town.

The owner of the residence knew that it was the Lord Nanli who came to visit, and he received him very warmly. He also knew that Mr. Ye had solved a serious problem for the town.

This place was run into a mess by the old magistrate, and Ye Yan was furious just thinking about it.

"Changqing, we have to settle the situation here before going back," Ye Yan said.

Changqing nodded: "That's right, it's not easy for the people here."

"And that dog official, we can't spare him!" Xiao Ke clenched his fists on the side.

"Of course we can't let it go." Ye Yan hated those who oppressed the common people the most.

Of course, in addition to this, Ye Yan has to investigate him carefully to see if there is any collusion behind him.

How did a guy like this become this official?
