Chapter 24: Making a big deal (Part 2)

Confucius said: "The people can be used to it, but not to know it." No matter what the original meaning of this statement is, since he was tricked by Lord Dong Zhongshu into the state religion, thousands of emperors and officials have all agreed that it is better for the people to be stupid.

Why? Because being foolish is easy to fool, being foolish is easy to satisfy, being foolish is easy to control, and being foolish is easy to control. How comfortable it is to help the people...

But now, some people are very unhappy! They dare to incite the emotions of the people of Hexian County, making them feel overwhelmed and excited to write a letter, and they are very likely to not give up until they achieve their goals. His grandmother, isn’t this putting our Lixian Zun on the stove? That sentence is so good, ‘Who is the world of Shaoxing today?’

The angry county lord finally broke out. He slapped the table and said, "Come here, please change my clothes for me, I want to go to the court!"

The servant quickly searched for the master's official uniform. He took it out and saw that it had grown a lot of green hair. It turned out that on plum rain, the county master had not been working all month long. After being put on the silk official uniform for a long time, it had turned into a fur cloak and could be used as a winter clothing.

The county master had to go to the hall in casual clothes and sat angrily behind the big case. He didn't like anyone else, so he scolded his subordinates from the county magistrate, chief clerk, clerk, clerk to the inspector, and the squad leader.

After scolding, he had to assign tasks, throw down a big red fire sign, and ordered Ma Dianshi, who was in charge of public security and arrest, "Investigate it for me, no matter who it is, I will give me a shackle!" Dianshi did not dare to say much, so he picked up the fire sign and led the head of the inspection team to go down to investigate the case and arrest people.

As soon as these rough people left, in the lobby where the "clear mirror was hanging high", there were the county magistrate, the chief clerk, the six-room clerk and other literati. The county magistrate was negligent for a long time, and he relied on these people to manage a large and upper-class county. The county magistrate Li naturally relied on them very much. He looked frowning and said, "Everyone, if this matter is not handled well, we will be in great trouble. We have to make a long-term plan."

Everyone nodded, then turned their eyes to the second-in-command county magistrate, waiting for him to make a high opinion. The county magistrate was surnamed Zhang, and he was from a juren, and his education was second only to that of the county magistrate, and his qualifications were much older. He coughed lightly and said slightly reservedly: "Sir, according to his subordinates, it would be useless to capture the perpetrator at this time."

County Magistrate Li narrowed his eyes and said, "Why do you say this?"

"The criminal instigated the two counties just to expand the momentum and arouse public anger. Now it seems that he has done it." The county magistrate said calmly: "Our arrest of him now will only make the people more excited. If you do something extraordinary, it will be difficult for you to explain to the prefect." In fact, in terms of his ability to handle things, he is much better than the county magistrate who does not do serious business.

County Magistrate Li thought that this was indeed the case and couldn't help but say angrily: "Since that's the case, why didn't you stop me just now?"

"Stop being angry, Bei Zhi feels that it's better to let them make a big fuss. It should be able to shock the unruly people and suppress their arrogance." County Chief Zhang quickly smiled and said with apologies: "That's what Bei Zhi means when it acts without being true."

"Well..." County Magistrate Li nodded slowly and said, "You are a mature saying, and I have to listen. But who is trying on it behind the scenes is still to find out. I can't spare him when I gossip!"

"Sir, wise." The officials said in unison.

After the county magistrate finished speaking, it was time for the third leader Chen Zhubu to speak. He first looked at the county magistrate, then looked at the Lord Tang Zun, and finally said with a frown: "Sir, will Wang Erhu still be released?" Wang Erhu was the black man caught the day before yesterday, the elder Wang Laohu, the eldest son of the Shanyin Hutou Club.

In order to redeem the stupid brother, Wang Erhu asked someone to find Zhang County Magistrate and gave him twenty taels of silver. Twenty taels of silver was the salary of Zhang County Magistrate Zhang's one year. He felt that it was not a big deal, so he agreed immediately. The prophet would say the history of the prison and ask the boys not to torture Wang Erhu and then plead with the county magistrate.

County Magistrate Li didn't care about civil affairs all day long, so he didn't care about so much. He agreed without asking clearly. Unexpectedly, the tiger head would be very rampant. He actually came to the county again to do evil and arrested Yao's eldest son who saved the people that day. This led to the right and wrong behind it.

"You're not going to be a fart!" The county magistrate who regarded himself as elegant actually swears: "Closing me well, no one is allowed to visit me."

The county magistrate sighed silently and cursed in his heart: "Wang Laohu, Wang Laohu, why are you so arrogant? My brother dared to make trouble again before he was released. Isn't it okay to ask for trouble?"

"What should I do now?" Seeing the two Shangguans getting angry and angry, Chen Zhubu had to bite the bullet and asked.

County Magistrate Li also looked at County Magistrate Zhang and snorted, "Aren't you familiar with them? Go and get the eldest son and short son back."

County Magistrate Zhang had no choice but to take the order and leave unhappily.

Two flowers bloomed, each with one branch. Besides, Ma Dianshi took the errand to arrest people, and the first person to doubt Shen He's family. So he took a group of men to the straw hut by the river, and then he realized that they would not live here long ago.

After a lot of inquiries, they found the Shen family's courtyard. When they saw the two Jinshi and the No. 1 flags standing in front of the house, they immediately became three points shorter.

Ma Dianshi secretly called out bad luck, so he had to let his subordinates wait in the distance. He handed over the licence issued by the county magistrate to the door and said, "Mr. County Master has an order to investigate the rumor-mongers. Please ask this brother to come in and report, and ask Shen to follow us to the county government to confront each other."

The doorzi immediately refused and pointed to the flag at the door and shouted: "Our Shen family is a scholarly family. There is no illegal man or a daughter who remarries within three generations. Why do you suspect us?" As he said that, he also threatened: "Be careful that our two masters will write to the Censorate, and we will be involved in your provocation and disturbance!"

Ma Dianshi had already grown a horse face, and when he heard this, his face stretched longer, he said softly: "We just invite Mr. Shen out, and there is no other intention."

The disciple was about to pursue the victory, but a serious voice sounded behind him: "What's the matter?"
