Chapter 1244 Zhang Dai has angered the crowd

"I was ordered to open the warehouse!"

As soon as the order was given, a small official listened to the order, took out a large circle of big keys, checked them, and opened the big lock of the first warehouse.

As soon as the door opened, a unique smell of food came from the shop.

There was no stale and corrupt smell as imagined, and it was very dry and clean. Zhang Dai's eyes flickered, but he didn't speak, but just stood at the door and watched.

I saw that in this warehouse, bags of grain were piled up in an orderly manner, and there seemed to be a lot of them.

"Go!"

Zhang Dai glanced at the people beside him, and several people went in immediately, from different directions, inside and outside, randomly opened a bag of grain to check.

It was originally a hot day, but now it was even more silent, and the people outside watched with bated breath. They saw these people checking, estimated the weight, and counted the quantity.

Although others didn't go in, they can roughly know that the amount of grain inside is about the same as the amount of grain that should be stored in this warehouse.

The person who checked it nodded to Zhang Dai at the door after a while, meaning there was no problem.

"Is it?"

When Zhang Dai saw it, his expression didn't change, and he didn't even make a sound. He went straight up and looked through the bags.

All of a sudden, he stopped at any time, and immediately selected a few bags: "Open!"

"Yes!" The accompanying person immediately responded, took out a knife and cut it at it, and the white rice flowed out. Zhang Dai kept his face, stretched his hand in and stirred it. It was indeed genuine rice, and it was not mixed with it. Anything else - a bag full of rice.

Zhang Dai grabbed a small handful and chewed it in his mouth. It was still good grain, not old miscellaneous grain, but new rice.

At this time Zhang Dai looked up and saw Xu Zhiming serving respectfully, but there was a trace of complacency on his face, and the muscles on his cheeks couldn't help twitching.

"Keep turning, keep checking!"

"Yes!"

It took a lot of time to turn the 58 granaries down one by one. As a result, there was no problem with the quantity and quality of the granaries.

Starting in the morning, everyone accompanied them, and even lunch was useless. All 58 warehouses were turned around, and it took a long time to go straight to the axis. When the last one was inspected, everyone was hungry and hungry. Looking up at the sky, they found that it was afternoon The sun began to set westward.

At that moment, the atmosphere became much more relaxed, and the officials all breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know who coughed, and then there was a lot of coughing and discussions.

"Emissary Xu Cang, you really managed well, there were no omissions, and the rice was kept well. It seems that you really put your heart into it." The accompanying Xu Zhifu didn't say a word until now, he was relieved, and looked into Xu Zhiming's eyes Showing satisfaction, open mouth praise.

Hearing this, Xu Zhiming, who was in charge of the granary, showed a complacent and inexplicable expression, but immediately bowed in fear, saying: "The lower officials have received the imperial salary, so naturally they have to work hard. This is the job of the lower officials. I dare not Your Excellency praises you!"

"My lord Zhang, look..." Xu Zhifu deliberately asked Zhang Dai, you are a deputy imperial envoy, so you naturally have the right to check the accounts and give orders, but since you can't find out, naturally you can't continue to show your face. It's just from the fourth grade.

After hearing this, the officials also looked over, but Zhang Dai only glanced at Xu Zhifu indifferently, his eyes fell on Xu Zhiming, and asked: "Your declaration is finished?"

"Responding to your lord's words, the subordinate officials have finished talking." Xu Zhiming was a little nervous from this look, but he still insisted on answering.

"Very good, come here, take off Xu Zhiming's black yarn and official uniform immediately!" No one expected that Zhang Dai would suddenly get angry and shouted directly.

All the people opened their mouths wide in shock, looking like a monster.

"Hmph, I'm an imperial envoy who is ordered to investigate the case, and I've never met him before. If there is a deficit, if I plead guilty, even though I have lost my official integrity, I have not lost my integrity to the monarch and ministers."

Zhang Dai grinned ferociously, and said in the silence: "But you wait, you dare to cheat when you are ordered to check the warehouse. This is not to belittle me, but to bully the emperor-this is nothing more than madness!"

"Come here, strip off his official robe, ask the king to order the flag, and cut it off immediately."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Dai turned his head to stare at a hundred households, and shouted: "Ah, you still don't implement it?"

"Ah—yes!"

Bai Hu understood that the hat was buttoned so big that he was directly deceiving the emperor, if he hesitated again, he would be equally guilty, so he waved his hand without any further hesitation.

The armored soldier responded with a bang, and immediately rushed forward, knocked off Xu Zhiming's black gauze cap with a wave of his hand, and then tore it, tearing the crack. One click and it will be dragged away.

Xu Zhiming was shocked, he reacted, and immediately shouted: "You are wronged, you are wronged! My lord, you are wronged!"

Following Zhang Dai to the prefect Xu's complexion changed, and the silent prefect Sun Dewen even blushed, startled and angry.

Is this Dai too arrogant?If something is wrong, it is normal to dismiss Xu Zhiming immediately, but under the eyes of everyone, the small official in charge of the granary management is right!

Even if there is a mistake, one must pay attention to evidence, how can one kill someone casually?
No matter how low-ranking an official is, he is also an official ordered by the court!

"Master Zhang, what's the reason? Xu Zhiming is an eighth-rank official after all, an official ordered by the imperial court..." Tong Zhi Sun Dewen immediately stood up: "How can you kill if you say so?"

"That's right, Master Zhang, please give me a reason, otherwise, I'll impeach you immediately!" Xu Zhifu also lowered his face, he didn't even call him brother and virtuous brother, and said with a livid face.

Zhang Dai immediately looked at the prefect and fellow prefects coldly.

The three of them faced each other, apparently facing each other.

Not far away were two foxes lying on their stomachs, following them all the way. They were startled when they saw this scene, and hid behind a pillar, not even daring to move.

The two foxes looked at each other, and they both saw panic in their eyes.

The human officials are really terrifying, they turn their faces and are ruthless, and they kill people when they say they kill people.

The two foxes lay there obediently, only peeping, not knowing what to do next.

Zhang Dai glanced contemptuously, and snorted coldly: "I'm an imperial envoy, and I'm carrying an imperial decree to investigate the case, but he dared to deceive the hidden, that's deceiving the emperor, and this imperial envoy has the right to execute on the spot!"

"If you deceive the emperor, maybe you can, but what is the evidence?" Tongzhi Sun Dewen was furious, his face flushed as red as blood: "The warehouse is full of grain, and there is no shortage of a stone. Although your sword is sharp, how can you kill the court officials for nothing?"

"Don't say you killed him, even if you didn't kill him, I will give you a book." Sun Dewen was so angry that he tore his face.

"The lower officials wait for the second proposal."

"The lower officials and others seconded the proposal. I don't know what crime did you kill, Mr. Zhang?"

After waking up from the shock, the county officials couldn't help but change their colors, asking questions one after another, and some of them took a step forward, even blushing.

Obviously, Zhang Dai has provoked the anger of the crowd.
