Chapter 539 Big fish eat small fish

Zhao Dongting sneered at the corner of his mouth, "I chose a good official."

The first batch of officials in the Song Dynasty were all selected from recommendation books submitted by Lu Xiufu and others. However, he had no impression of who the county magistrate of Cenxi County was.

Finally, a detective came out of the room on the left, "What are you doing?"

Zhao Dongting turned his head and looked over. From the room where he came out, there was a noisy sound.

It seems that someone is shouting betting or something.

gamble?

Zhao Dongting turned around and walked towards the constable, "In broad daylight, you are not working on the job with the court's salary, and you are actually gathering here to gamble?"

The constable is happy and unscrupulous, "Do you dare to care about my affairs?"

Zhao Dongting's clothes were already quite sloppy because he was rushing to travel, and he looked no different from refugees. He would never be taken seriously by this constable.

"hehe."

Zhao Dongting said: "There is nothing in this world that I dare not care about."

As he said that, he took out a golden gold medal from his sleeve and raised it in front of the detective.

The detective stared at the gold medal, his eyes gradually widened, and deep fear emerged.

In ancient times, gold medals were divided into several types, the most famous one was undoubtedly the death-free gold medal. The rest were such as the "Inspection on my behalf..." held by the imperial envoy, the Dragon Order, the Phoenix Order held by the royal family, etc. These gold medals were divided into levels, and the inspection on my behalf was divided into third ranks, while the Dragon and Phoenix Order was divided into ninth ranks. Above these gold medals, there was also the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Order, which represented Zhao Dongting's identity.

This kind of token is never given, and it has always been personally controlled by the emperor.

The Nine Dragon Order only carved nine three-clawed dragons.

What Zhao Dongting held at this time was not the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Order, but also the Nine Dragon Order.

This represents the highest imperial envoy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the emperor is here in person. How can this constable not be shocked? How can he not be afraid?

After swallowing, the constable was about to kneel down immediately.

However, he was stopped by Zhao Dongting and said, "Take me to see your master!"

Humph, he doesn't want to disturb the "happiness" of the yamen officials now."

"Master, he..."

The constable was a little hesitant.

Zhao Dongting pulled Zhanlu out from his waist, "Don't take it, kill it immediately!"

The middle-aged detective had no blood on his face, so he hurriedly walked towards the cobblestone road on the left side, "Please follow me, Lord of the Imperial College."

He was extremely flattering, afraid that he knew that he would not be able to get a good job this time, and he wanted to find a way out.

Zhao Dongting didn't say anything, just followed him inside.

After passing the county magistrate’s main hall, the county magistrate’s residence was behind. In the yamen, only the county magistrate was given a house in the government office.

Others, such as county senatorial prosecution, supervision and other ministers, have other yamen, but they do not work here.

After turning around, there were small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, towers, rockery green plants, and it was even more luxurious by Mr. Ma’s house.

Zhao Dongting couldn't help but snorted softly again.

In just two months after arriving in Cenxi, the county magistrate actually got money and arranged the government office like this, which is also his ability.

This is simply a wealthy courtyard.

After walking along the smooth and round cobblestone path for several minutes, I finally arrived at the residence behind me.

Red walls and green tiles, and clusters of pear trees.

As soon as I walked to the house, I heard a faint laugh from inside.

"old……"

The constable was about to shout, but Zhao Dongting covered his mouth and said, "Don't say anything."

Then he walked towards the house step by step.

When they arrived at the door, they saw two people sitting in the lobby. These two people were about fifty years old, but there were still young women sitting on their legs, dressed in sexy and exposed clothes.

The constable followed Zhao Dongting, not daring to speak out.

When Zhao Dongting saw two old guys drinking and having fun, he said quietly: "The two sirs are so elegant!"

The two old guys then discovered him and frowned and said, "Who are you? How dare you go straight into the backyard?"

The other one stared at the constable, "Why are you going to the leader behind you?"

The constable's face was bitter and stammered, "Old, master, this is... the imperial envoy..."

"Qin...the imperial envoy?"

The two old men changed color instantly.

Although the imperial envoy is of grade, even the lowest-level imperial envoy is definitely not something that the little county magistrate can afford.

The third-grade imperial envoy has the right to dismiss an official below the third-grade official.

What real power is this?

Zhao Dongting took out his token again.

The two old men saw clearly the four words "Dai Zhen" on the gold medal, and the words "Golden" on it, and they almost fell to the ground.

At that moment, the two hurriedly pushed the woman away and knelt on the ground, "The emperor asked to see the imperial envoy."

The imperial envoy was the third rank, with gold as the best, silver as the second, and copper as the lowest.

A person who holds the gold medal of the first-grade imperial envoy can be dismissed from an official below the first-grade official. For a county magistrate, he is simply a high-ranking official who can't even think about it.

Zhao Dongting walked to the main seat in the middle of the hall, sat down with a big golden sword, and did not let the two of them get up. He asked calmly: "What are the official positions of you two?"

The old man with a goatee on the right said, "The lower official is He Xiang Temple, the inspector of Cenxi County."

The old man on the left followed closely and said, "Mr. Cenxi County Magistrate Mo Xitong."

"He Xiang Temple, Mo Xitong."

Zhao Dongting was talking about these two names, but he had a little impression of it.

In Lu Xiufu's recommendation book, these two are both famous old masters in Xuwen County, Leizhou.

Zhao Dongting really didn't expect that such two people with prestige would be like this when they became officials in Cenxi.

He did not rush to cure the two of them, but said, "Both are famous and knowledgeable people in Xuwen. They read the books of sages. The emperor asked you to come to Cenxi to be your parents. Why did you two let the minor officials gamble outside? Are you even drinking and having fun here?"

As he said that, he looked at He Xiang Temple, "Mr. He came to Master Mo's mansion. Is there no errands to do in the Supervision Office?"

The supervisor is the function of supervising all officials. Now, He Xiangsi and Mo Xi are in a sympathy. This has made Zhao Dongting extremely angry.

But he just suppressed his anger.

Hexiang Temple, Mo Xi and the two kowtowed quickly, "Give up your life, and Give up your life."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, "Although I was ordered by the emperor, I was not here to inspect all the officials, but just passed by Cenxi. You two don't need to do this. I was just curious and had no intention of punishing you."

He Xiangsi and Mo Xitong exchanged their eyes, which were both lucky.

Of course they would not doubt Zhao Dongting's words. If this imperial envoy really came to inspect them, they would be able to kill them on the spot if they had just drunk and had fun.

Comrade Mo Xi: "Secretary...Secretary..."
