Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

After the disaster, after the emperor roared, the speed became faster.After uncovering the post-disaster arrangements, the two groups of people who cleared the accounts each sent back a statement, which clearly listed the details of the county magistrate's corruption. In addition, they also received news from the guards who accompanied them. The reputation of the officials in the two counties is extremely bad. That’s right, these guards who protect and investigate the officials have another job, which is to investigate the reputation of the local officials in the local area. Just like the question asked by Wang Xiujin, corrupt officials are not necessarily evil. People, some people are greedy because they are afraid of being slapped by others after becoming a different kind, or even pushed out to be a scapegoat.

As the Metropolitan Procuratorate began to clear accounts, the Ministry of Criminal Justice also began to investigate unjust and wrongly decided cases. No matter where it is, as long as it is a case, there will be records. From the records, if any abnormalities are found, it will be tried again.The officials of the Ministry of Punishment felt bitter, how difficult it is to retry the old case, it is absolutely impossible to think about it.But the minister of the Ministry of punishment said that they could not fall behind the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they could only grit their teeth and work.In fact, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice had no idea, but he found that the emperor was proud of the hardworking people, not the flattering ones. If he wanted not to be rejected by the emperor, he had to do something sloppy.

Of course, it will not be so smooth for Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to investigate the old cases consciously. There will always be some guilty officials who jump out and shout for opposition.The emperor didn't say a word, and he didn't want to talk to some officials who didn't come out in the name of objecting to show their presence. He just secretly made a note in his heart and waited to deal with it later.The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs was not afraid of people's opposition. After going out, he saluted the emperor, and then said, in the case of X, X, X, X, X, the younger brother of the concubine's concubine of a certain adult was very seriously suspected.The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice was afraid that someone would jump out and jump around, so he deliberately revealed the relationship between some ministers in the DPRK and the Central Committee, and then checked to see if it was involved in the case. "You, are you guilty?"

The adults who jumped out to object were overwhelmed, and immediately refuted. The two started arguing back and forth in the court hall, and after the argument, they simply started fighting.The ministers watching from the side were a little confused. Since the establishment of the dynasty, Daliang had never seen such a thing. I heard that this kind of thing was always discovered in the court hall of the previous dynasty. Now that I saw it, they all couldn't react.After reacting, they all took a step back in unison.As for the military officers, they were the first to react, but they didn't step forward to stop them. They wished to watch the excitement for a while. It was very interesting to watch the civil servants fight. They were scratching, picking, and pulling their hair. The picture was very joyful. .

The emperor never stopped, leaning on the imperial chair and watching the two people tearing apart, accompanied by his personal attendants to bring tea, it would be even better if he brought some food, he still kept applauding for Minister of Punishment in his heart.

In the farce in the court hall, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice finally won with a higher force value. After realizing that they were in the court hall, both of them broke out in cold sweat.The prince did not punish Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, but the other one was not so cheap. Not to mention losing, the emperor charged him with the crime of disrespect in front of the imperial court and gave him ten sticks.Anyone with a brain in the court should have noticed that now, the emperor is more and more pragmatic, and it is impossible to climb up by slapping horses if you want to mess around casually, but if you just see clearly, you will still Some of the mentality of stealing the opportunity, maybe the emperor's mind has changed again!

After Wang Xiujin heard about the fights in the court, he would not feel any surprises. Some people really wanted to get people to go up and beat them when they said something, "Father, why don't you practice it too, so as not to be disturbed by someone in the court?" In a verbal dispute with dad, if you can't talk to dad, let's start again."

Mr. Wang thought about it very seriously, and finally shook his head and refused. He has old arms and legs, so he can't stand the toss. He just needs to pay more attention when going to court in the future, and try not to conflict with others.

After being rejected by his father, Wang Xiujin went to find Li Sushan to complain. He was very worried about the danger of his father going to court. It may not be able to defeat the opponent.

"Don't worry, if someone really does something, my father and grandfather will also participate in the big and small court meetings, and my uncle will definitely not be injured." After hearing the reason for Wang Xiujin's worry, Li Sushan patted him on the shoulder, "The emperor will not allow the court meeting Similar things happen again." Wang Xiujin felt that there would be more civil servants tearing each other apart in the future.

Li Sushan never imagined that in the future, civil servants would tear each other up almost every day. The reason was that after the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment finished tearing up people, not only was he not punished, but he was also rewarded.The emperor even sent the fourth prince to personally go to Shangshu's mansion and delivered the wound medicine, what an honor it is.

The matter of the Minister of Criminal Affairs opened the door to a new world for officials. It has become a daily routine for civil officials to tear each other, and civil and military affairs. play.And the emperor in the high position is very calm, if there is a reason to tear it up, he will stand on the side he thinks the idea is good, if there is no reason to tear each other up, then I am sorry, each stick twenty, it is a show in court Table, can you play casually?

Not long after the daily routine of tearing each other started, another person in the Wang family got up for a run in the morning. After Wang Xiujin set off for Wu County, Master Wang took his eldest grandson to run together in the morning. Master Wang felt that even if he couldn’t practice boxing , As for running faster, don't be affected innocently in court.

After Wang Xiujin came out of the first month, he set off for Wu County. This time, there was nothing serious about going back, the main thing was to inspect and then take Wang Zhizhuo to Beijing.Before leaving, Wang Xiujin went to Li's house and asked Li Sushan to take care of the shop if he had time.Li Sushan happily responded and asked Wang Xiujin if he could come back before the coming-of-age ceremony.Wang Xiujin said that he would only be gone for a month or so, and he would go back to Beijing directly. After that, unless Zailing had to travel far, he would stay in the capital forever, so naturally he would not miss the coming-of-age ceremony in June.

When mentioning the coming-of-age ceremony, Wang Xiujin thought of a question, "After you become an adult, if someone crams someone into your room, what should you do?"

"Throw it out." Li Sushan replied without thinking.After listening to this, Wang Xiujin felt relieved.Li Sushan was thinking that it would be cheaper to throw it out, and send it back to whoever sent it.

Leaving the capital at the beginning of February, it took more than a month to arrive in Wu County, which was much later than expected, which caused people who received the letter early to think that something was wrong.It wasn't that something happened, but Wang Xiujin reversed the itinerary. He originally planned to go to the cities along the way to see the situation of his own shops when he returned to Beijing, but on the way, Wang Xiujin suddenly changed his mind and raided a few shops. He wanted to see if anyone had made superficial tricks to fool him. The result of the surprise attack was very satisfactory. There was no such thing as one thing in front of him and another thing in private. He was very satisfied.

When he arrived in Wu County, Wang Xiujin was not free either. After meeting with the stewards of the workshops on both sides, he held a meeting with the storekeepers of the grain shop and several cities around the grain shop. He was so busy that he beat the back of his head. Go back to Wangcun to have a look.

Distribute the gifts brought from the capital to a few families who get along well. After sitting at the village head's house, I went home and walked around. The housekeeper took care of the house and took care of it.After that Mrs. Chun came to the door, Wang Chunshi sent away all the maids she brought with her when she went out.Hearing that my uncle was back, Wang Chunshi couldn't meet people directly, so she asked her second son to go over to say hello.

Wang Zhizhuo and his elder brother have different temperaments, Wang Zhiyuan has scheming and can play tricks, Wang Zhizhuo is also not lacking in scheming, but he is not good at showing.Wang Xiujin likes both nephews, but the boss spends more time with him and pays more attention to him, but it doesn't mean that he will do something partial.Seeing his little nephew, Wang Xiujin picked him up and asked him what he did every day at home, etc., which children could answer.Wang Zhizhuo was lying in his uncle's arms, with a shy smile on his face, and he answered his uncle's questions obediently, and continued until Wang Xiubai came back.

Wang Xiubo knew that his younger brother had been back to Wu County for a few days, because he was busy with the workshop and shop, so he didn't go to worry about it.Seeing someone at home now, the two brothers naturally have a lot to talk about.After Wang Xiubo learned that he had started to clean up the old accounts, he spontaneously began to count the old accounts in the yamen. He found that the accounts of the previous county magistrate were very strange, and the accounts for several years were very detailed.Ordinarily, it should be a good thing to do it carefully, but how does Wang Xiubai feel awkward? The reason is that the balance numbers in the account books for several years are almost the same. The only difference is that the mantissa is different, and the difference is within five figures. .

There are also many problems in the account book. Although Wang Xiubai is not a professional account clearer, he has seen his younger brother keep accounts, and after consulting with Guanshi, Wang Xiubai is more and more suspicious of the account book of the previous county magistrate.Wang Xiubo felt that the previous county magistrate could be regarded as a practical parent official, but the account book made Wang Xiubai feel very complicated, and he didn't believe his own guess, so he wanted to invite his younger brother to help check it.

"Brother, although I have the name of an imperial merchant, I have no qualifications to be involved in politics. After the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate come over, do you want to tell them about this?" Wang Xiujin directly rejected the proposal of the elder brother, "Brother, In the future, don't mention such things again. You should know that the trees in the Wang family are a bit big now, and it is easy to attract evil winds."

"I was reckless." Wang Xiubo also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and he received a letter from the capital a year later, and he also knew that his younger brother was involved in several people because his father was actively doing things after the snow disaster.In the future, you must be more careful in your actions, and you must not hold back your father and younger brother.
