An alpha's ancient life record

In the morning of the next day, Shen Qingshu formally changed into his official robe, accompanied by a seal, and went to see a group of subordinate officials.

Speaking of this official robe, it was made with money given by the emperor, and it was made of high-quality silk, but the color was turquoise, so it didn't look so good to wear. Fortunately, the hat was still black, so it didn't look so funny.

They called Master Zhou again, and when they arrived at the lobby, they saw Master Zhang and three men waiting respectfully, Shen Qingshu quickly walked a few steps, and said politely: "I'm late, I asked my colleagues to wait for a long time."

"Your Excellency, you are welcome. We are here to pay your respects." After several people returned their salutes, Master Zhang smiled and said, "I am here to introduce you to Your Excellency. This is..."

After some introductions and greetings, Shen Qingshu almost knew the identities of these people.

They are, Xu Xiancheng, Zheng Bapin, assisting the county magistrate in charge of a county's affairs, similar to the deputy county magistrate, the second in command.

The master Zhang who greeted her yesterday, from the ninth grade, is in charge of the household registration documents and is the third in command.

Wang Dianli, who is not popular, is in charge of arrests, public security, and prisoners, similar to the chief of the public security bureau, the fourth in command.

Guo Jiaoyu, the eighth rank, is in charge of the county student students, not an assistant officer, similar to the director of the education bureau.

In addition to Shen Qingshu, among the hundreds of people in the entire county government, only these positions can be regarded as officials, and they can be promoted step by step.

In addition, there are three classes of yamen servants, Zaoban, Zhuangban and Kuaiban. Become an official.

After the introduction, Master Zhang laughed again: "Yesterday it was getting late, and I had no choice but to neglect my lord. Tonight, my colleagues will hold a banquet to cleanse my lord. I don't know what your lord will think?"

"Excuse me, Master Zhang, to make arrangements." Shen Qingshu nodded in response, which was what it should have meant. In addition to expressing welcome to the new county magistrate, the reception banquet also allowed her to show her face in front of other people, which was equivalent to sending a group notice that the new county magistrate was coming. Well, well, it looks like this.

After chatting for a few more words, after they left, Shen Qingshu turned around and asked Master Zhou, "What do you think of these people, Mister?"

"Don't dare to address me like that when an adult, just call me Lao Zhou." Master Zhou stroked his beard, "What do you think, my lord?"

Shen Qingshu thought for a while and said, "I think these people will look down on me when they see me as young and inexperienced, but because I have a lot of background and can't figure out my background, they all pretend to be respectful for the time being."

Master Zhou agreed: "That's right. These people are big locals. They have been entrenched in this county for decades, and their relationships are intricate. If you want to manage the place well, you can't do without these people, but you can't be completely led by them. Let’s go, so we must first convince these people, and you must grasp the speed of this.”

"What do you think I should do?"

"Your Excellency is new here, and the two sides don't know each other. Don't act rashly. You should be familiar with the affairs of the county and understand the nature of these people. After everything is clear, you can talk about curing the ills and developing people's livelihood."

Shen Qingshu nodded. She thought so too. Although she had the title of county magistrate, she was alone. When she was in an unfamiliar environment, she couldn't take it for granted. She must be familiar with the situation before she could do things.

In the evening, Shen Qingshu went to the banquet on time. It was a big restaurant in the county town. Apart from the county government officials, many wealthy businessmen and celebrities also came, and it was very lively.

Shen Qingshu sat in the main seat and made some polite opening remarks, just eat and drink, she counted carefully, there were nearly twenty dishes at her table, which was even more exaggerated than Chengyi's house.

After decades of recuperation, the Yan Dynasty has recovered from the war, is in the process of rapid development, and is about to reach the peak of national power.

But the common people work hard every day, but they can barely eat. That's it, they won't starve to death or freeze to death, they don't have to sell their sons and daughters, and they can eat by changing their sons. In later generations, they can still be called the rule of prosperity .

Shen Qingshu tilted his head and asked Master Zhang next to him, "Is the expense of the welcome banquet paid out during business trips?"

Director Zhang was taken aback, he didn't expect that she would ask this. Could it be that the county magistrate is a penny-pinching master, he thought about it and said, "No, don't worry, my lord, our county government doesn't need to pay for it."

Shen Qingshu frowned, "Then who will do it, is it free to eat and drink?"

Master Zhang quickly explained: "My lord, I misunderstood. The restaurants in the city are rushing to hold the banquet, and the owner of the restaurant voluntarily gave the county government free of charge."

"Oh, that's how it is." After being a sponsor for a long time, Shen Qingshu thought about it, and the exemption was only once every three years. With so many high-spending groups in the county, the advertising effect is good, and the merchants are not losing money.

Okay, the restaurant owner is also a genius, I didn't expect the magistrate to have a star effect.

Seeing her face softening, Mr. Zhang next to him smiled on his face and secretly groaned in his heart. Judging from just now, the new magistrate seems to be a stunned young man who can't tolerate sand in his eyes.

They are not afraid of the magistrate being well-behaved, mediocre and incompetent, but what they are most afraid of is the kind who don't understand anything and love to mess around.

Now the court's prestige is still very strong, like Shen Qingshu, a 20-year-old Jinshi, has a bright future at first glance, they still hope that there will be no conflicts, and they will try not to happen.

The status of officials and merchants in this era is like a world of difference. During the banquet, people kept coming to toast. If Shen Qingshu touched her lips slightly, or simply replaced wine with tea, everyone knew that she didn't like drinking, and they all brought tea to toast. up.

Shen Qingshu couldn't help feeling that the so-called wine table culture doesn't necessarily mean how delicious the wine is. Maybe it's because it's a symbol of power. You can enjoy the dominance of the superior over the inferior. You don't drink.

Power is indeed easy to get lost, she secretly reminded herself not to be too drifting.

A few days after the banquet, Shen Qingshu officially took over the affairs of the county, and Master Zhang and the others were actually very cooperative, and there was no intention of shirking.

She was so busy that she kept her feet on the ground, and Lin Weizhi in the back house gradually bought all the things. When they left Beijing, it was a bit inconvenient to carry them, and they needed to buy them now. Old Liu was afraid that they would not remember, so he made a list of purchases for them. list.

She couldn't see clearly, so she dictated it. Lin Weizhi wrote it on behalf of her. It covered every aspect and was very detailed. It's like parents sending their children to college in the future. They are always worried that their children won't take good care of themselves. exhort.

Every time Shen Qingshu saw it, the tip of his nose turned sore, so he handed it over to Lin Weizhi to take care of it, and took the saddle with him to run errands outside. Now that they have fewer people, it's easy to manage, and nothing went wrong.

This morning, Shen Qingshu was reading the documents, when a case suddenly came, and some people handed over the pleadings.

"Hurry up!"

This was the first case in her career as an official, Shen Qingshu was inexplicably a little excited, she quickly straightened her official robes, and straightened her hat seriously.

Soon the yamen servant brought a man in and knelt under the hall, Shen Qingshu patted the gavel, "Successful!"

The yamen servants on both sides held killing power sticks and shouted "mighty" in unison. Under the plaque of "Gongshengming", a sense of sacredness emerged spontaneously.

Shen Qingshu made the opening remarks according to the usual practice, "Who is in the hall, and what is the complaint?"

"Little man Zhang San, knock on my lord. When the villain wakes up in the morning, he finds that a thief has entered the house. He wants to sue Chen Wu next door for stealing two thousand coins from me and three fat chickens!"

"..."

Good guy, the corners of Shen Qingshu's mouth twitched twice, his expression almost tensed, she was just imagining what kind of bizarre case would be to start the first chapter of her detective career, and she was just stealing for a long time?

Shen Qingshu said: "For this kind of case, you should first seek the Chief Jiabao and the Chief Baobao. Why did you sue the county government?"

"Back to my lord, the chief protector is partial to Chen Wu, and the villain refuses to accept it, so I beg your lord to uphold justice."

Well, a small case is also a case, Shen Qingshu collected his emotions and cheered up, "Pass to the defendant."

The defendant brought in, a young man, Shen Qingshu said slowly: "Chen Wu, Zhang San said you stole his chicken, what do you say?" He already guessed his answer in his heart.

Sure enough, Chen Wu yelled out the classic line, "My lord, I am wronged. That chicken was originally my chicken. I raised ten chickens, and everyone in the neighbors knew about it. Zhang San lost his own chicken, so he came here." Blackmail me and say I stole his money, how do I know where his money is."

Zhang San was furious, "Nonsense, the chicken's feather pattern is obviously my chicken, even if you stole it, you still don't admit it!"

"The chickens all look alike. If it's really yours, what about my chicken? Where did my chicken go?"

"Who knows, you are slippery yourself, and you may not be sure if you eat it secretly!"

"Fart, I..."

Shen Qingshu felt a headache from hearing this, and slapped the gavel, "Silence!"

The two fell down in fright, and the hall became quiet again, Shen Qingshu said: "Zhang San, you said he stole your chicken, but what other evidence do you have?"

Zhang Sandao: "My lord, that thief was not very careful and left shoe prints in our courtyard, which happened to be exactly the same size as Chen Wu's feet."

Chen Wu made a bitter face, "My lord, I don't know what's going on, but the villain is really wronged. I didn't go out last night and slept at home. My mother-in-law can testify to me."

"Hmph, that's your mother-in-law. You two must have colluded. Can you believe that?"

"Then you go to my house to search. There must be no two thousand coins. I really didn't steal it."

"Then I don't know, you can't tell if you're hiding somewhere else."

Shen Qingshu suddenly remembered the short case-solving stories he had read before, and his heart moved, and he suggested: "How about this, these three chickens will be stewed on the spot today, and the two of you will share the food. No matter whose chicken it is, treat it as an invitation to the neighbors." How about a meal of meat?"

"My lord, no!" The two people below said in unison.

"That's my chicken, why should I take advantage of him for nothing?"

"Hey, you chicken thief, don't try to take advantage of it. Besides the chicken, you have to return my two thousand Wen."

It was agreed who is more precious and distressed, who is the owner, the two reacted the same, Shen Qing was silent for a moment, and the story was really unreliable.

"Silence!" Seeing that the two were quarreling again, Shen Qingshu rubbed his temples, turned his head and said to the catcher: "Let's rest for now, you take two catchers to Zhang San's house to stamp the footprints, and compare them one by one at the surrounding houses. , Bring back the ones that match."

She got up and turned to the lounge behind the courtroom. Lin Weizhi and the two maidservants were also there, apparently eavesdropping behind. It's so broken."

Lin Weizhi propped his chin up, his eyes seemed to be shining with light, and he said with a smile: "I think your husband is very majestic."

"That's right," Sheng Han also said with a laugh, "Young master's aura is very much like a master's."

"Don't make fun of me." The weather was very hot, Shen Qingshu took off his official hat, wiped the sweat from his forehead, sat down beside her, and sighed: "If this first case can't be solved, they may despise me even more."

Lin Weizhi blinked, "What do you think?"

Shen Qingshu thought about it for a while, "I saw that the two of them spoke fiercely, showed no guilty conscience, and neither seemed to be fake. Zhang San did lose the chicken, and Chen Wu did not steal it. It should be just a misunderstanding. The footprints It was left by someone else, Chen Wu was just unlucky, it happened to be the same size as the chicken thief's foot, so I asked the head catcher to check again."

"Well," Lin Weizhi agreed, "If it's a professional thief, after getting a lot of money, why would he take the risk of stealing a living thing? , and found money in the house by the way."

The two looked at each other and smiled, Shen Qingshu said: "Now we will wait for the head arrester to bring the people back."

"For cases like this, if no one can be caught, most of them will be settled with peace and quiet."

"That innocent person is too wronged. Not only does he lose money, but he also bears the notoriety of a thief and is pointed out by his neighbors. I hope he can be caught."

Shen Qingshu has already corrected his mentality. Although the case is small, it is the real life of the people and their immediate interests. He has to investigate clearly and judge the case impartially.

In the afternoon, when the headhunter came back, he picked up a young man, saying that when they went to check the footprints, the young man looked flustered and ran away. He saw something wrong, and they caught him, and the footprints matched.

During Shen Qingshu's first trial, the young man was terrified, and immediately confessed like a bamboo tube pouring beans. It was really a few of them who were greedy for a while, went in to steal chickens, and then got greedy for a while, and stole money from the master.

The chicken had been roasted and eaten, but the money was still kept and did not dare to move it. Shen Qingshu ordered the property to return to the original owner, and confessed to his two accomplices.

Zhang San apologized to Chen Wu. The two children, one and a half, were too hungry to bear it, and it was justifiable, and it was the first crime. The family was willing to compensate Zhang San for a few chickens, and was forgiven by the owner, so Shen Qingshu just parted ways. After playing five boards, they were taught to have a long memory, and their parents were taken back to strictly discipline them.

The five boards of the county government are not light. According to her, these young people will inevitably have a meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots when they go home.

The author has something to say: some historical cases will be used later, which may be familiar to everyone.
