Chapter 90

County Office.

"My lord, something big happened outside." The housekeeper rushed in.

"What's the matter, what's the matter with the sound of gongs and drums?" Yang Xingchang hurriedly stood up, and Yang Yuehua's mother and daughter stretched out their ears.

"Master Zhifu came to make an inspection today, and found that our county has increased the corvee without permission, making the people's livelihood difficult. Some young lads actually sued the officials. When Master Su was sitting in court, he sued Master Su for embezzling water management funds and increasing corvee without permission. Unfortunately, The most important thing is that the magistrate is sitting on the sidelines and listening, so it’s okay now? The magistrate was furious, so he asked where the water treatment funds went, and the investigation found that all the water treatment funds had disappeared.”

Yang Yuehua hurried to the door with a few steps. "And then? What happened?"

Speaking of this, the butler was beaming with joy, gesticulating with his hands and feet. "Master Su was naturally furious. He followed the clues and found out that the money was moved to a private house that night. The government officials took to the street with knives. With such an aura, they ransacked the house directly according to the clues. It was unexpected. The house copied is the private house bought by the county magistrate outside."

"But the one in the west of the city?" Yang Xingchang asked.

"That's right, you don't know, that family is so arrogant, the gatekeeper directly tells the people who came to search the house to go away, and self-declared that his master is the county magistrate, that would be ridiculous, the officials directly took people to search the private house. It was searched, and I heard that someone from the county magistrate's family said that the Dianshifu and the Zhubufu were also involved. The trucks pulling soil at the construction site were transferred to pull money, and they lined up for a whole street."

Yang Xingchang's face darkened when he heard that Su Huan was under investigation. "I told that kid a long time ago not to do this, don't do this, now that it's all over, I'll just act as an official temporarily, and I'll be killed directly, and there is no chance of becoming a full-time official."

"How is it now?" Yang Yuehua asked.

"Miss, when I came back, the three of them were being interrogated in court. Mr. Xu denied life and death before, but after the evidence was presented, he fainted from fright. Now he has been detained and awaits the court's punishment."

Yang Xingchang sighed, he didn't expect such a big thing to happen.

The butler looked excited: "My lord, I'm currently reviewing the history of the classics, sir. When the history of the classics and the master book are all locked up, the master will be able to sit back in his original position. The county can't be left alone for a day."

Sure enough, Yang Xingchang had a happy expression on his face: "Come in and explain clearly."

Only then did everyone realize that the housekeeper was still standing at the entrance of the hall.

After a while, several government officials knocked on the door, and the gatekeeper let him go.

"My lord, the magistrate Meng lord has said that starting tomorrow, your lord will temporarily manage all government affairs in the county. The other three lords will all be locked up. Everything is waiting for the arrangement of the court."

"Congratulations, my lord, congratulations to my lord." The faces of several government officials were all smiles.

Yang Xingchang was a little dazed, there were too many government affairs in the county, and with the arrest of the accountant, the county was extremely short of people, and the court needed to quickly appoint new people.

So, all three of the county magistrate and Dian Shi have been imprisoned?
After everyone left the mansion, Yang Xingchang was in high spirits. "Housekeeper, make something delicious tonight."

"Good."

Yang Xingchang sat down, very excited, took a cup of tea, his eyes were full of yearning for a better life tomorrow.

Yang Yuehua suddenly said coldly: "Father, could it be that Su Huan did it on purpose."

"Hahaha, how is that possible? If it was intentional, he couldn't let himself fall into it." Yang Xingchang laughed. "You don't understand this. This time, you have violated a big taboo by increasing the corvee and breaking into the official house."

"The kid surnamed Su is still too young." Yang Xingchang sighed.

"I remember Mr. Su said that if he can save him, he will definitely save father."

Yang Xingchang looked at Yang Yuehua fiercely: "The kid didn't say that when he came to our house last time."

"I said Master Su meant that." Yang Yuehua said.

"Really? I don't feel like it." Yang Xingchang held a skeptical attitude.

Yuehua's mother felt relieved. "You bad old man, you have no conscience, your daughter..."

"mother!"

"Don't interrupt... Your daughter went to that kid's house to ask him to save you for you."

Yang Xingchang was speechless, could it be true?Isn't this official Hong Fu Qi Tian?Fortune is coming?
But it's not like that kid's style. Breaking into an official's house without official documents, breaking such a big taboo, even a fourth-rank official, will make the whole court officials dare not go out, or even dismissed, what's the matter?He is a brat, how can the imperial court spare him?
Yang Xingchang still doesn't understand, if it's true what Yuehua said, then this kid has made a big sacrifice, using his future official career in exchange for Yang's reinstatement.

Regardless, it's a must see.

"Yuehua, get ready, let's go outside and have a look." This was Yang Xingchang's first time going out since his suspension.

Outside, a bunch of ordinary people gathered on the street, talking about the great events that happened at noon.

As soon as Yang Xingchang walked out of the mansion, he was recognized by the people. A large number of people rushed over, frightening Yang Xingchang, thinking that the people thought he was a corrupt official and wanted to beat him up. "Run."

"grown ups!"

"Run!" Yang Xingchang held Yang Yuehua's hand, and he saw someone with a hoe in his hand, and someone with a sickle in his hand.

People came running from all directions, and Yang Xingchang was surrounded. There was only one word in his mind, and that was over.

Could it be that this group of unscrupulous people think that if other corrupt officials are sentenced, then no one in the county will be a good official?

Push these people away later and let Yuehua run away, and I will explain to them carefully.

Just when Yang Xingchang was about to have a good talk with the crowd, the people in front suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop. "My lord, please save me, my lord."

Along the street, one after another knelt on the ground, and only Yang Xingchang and his friends stood in the audience.

"My lord, we are all voluntary corvee workers, and have nothing to do with the Lord Registrar." The common people knelt on the ground.

Those who are persecuted by corrupt officials are actually the most shrewd. After some discussion, they are greedy for the small profits they get from hard labor. It is better to save a good official who really cares about the local people. In the future, the people in the county will have a good life. up.

"I beg my lord to save the savior, my lord, and plead with the imperial court."

After Yang Xingchang learned about it, he finally learned what happened.

He can't do anything, don't look at him as an official, this involves, but the private increase of corvee is not allowed by the court, he is a seventh-rank sesame official in one place, what is the point of talking?
Yang Xingchang could only perfunctory for a while, and walked to the county government office.

Yang Xingchang lived behind the county government office, and it was only 500 meters away from the front hall.
