The Sword of Six Doors Points at the Rivers and Lakes

Chapter 1073 County Magistrate - Three Provinces of Su!
Ye Xiuwen left the beauty behind and went back to his room to sleep, there was nothing to say this night.When he got up early the next morning, Ye Xiuwen hadn't eaten yet and had just washed his face when someone came to report that Su Sansheng, the county magistrate of Qingshan Town, had arrived and was kneeling in the yard.

"This person still has face. If he can't do things well, he will raise an argument. He said that I am an upright official, and I didn't get a penny of benefits. What's the use of that?" Yue'er said angrily, and wanted to go out to find Su Sansheng. unlucky.

"Forget it, maybe he came to repent, what's more, we are leaving today, don't want side effects."

Ye Xiuwen said, and then left the guest room with Yue'er.

But at this moment, I saw that Su Sansheng was kneeling outside, but when he saw Ye Xiuwen and Yue'er came out, he quickly kowtowed and said: "My lord, I have been hanging on the gate for a whole night, and I finally realized that I was wrong."

"Hey? Where did you go wrong?" Ye Xiuwen asked back.

"Typhoid fever, malaria, and acclimatization are taboos for the army to go out. Once he gets some kind of contagious disease, I'm afraid the army will be defeated before he reaches the battlefield. Therefore, the arrangement of humble positions is indeed inappropriate. Please also The prince punishes the crime."

Su Sansheng knelt on the ground and begged Ye Xiuwen to punish him.But at this time Ye Xiuwen smiled and said: "Su Sansheng? Your name is indeed not in vain, and you have three provinces every day, and you have finally come up with some problems. But you still need three provinces? Think about how many years you have been a What did the county magistrate of Qingshan County do for the people? You just don’t want to be greedy, so everything will be fine? That’s your duty. As an official, you must benefit one side. If you don’t benefit the people, the local government will What is the use of you as an official? Think about it yourself!"

"My lord's lesson is that I should do three provinces a day. In addition, my lord has already prepared breakfast. I also ask my lord to move to the county government office. I will leave for my lord and all the generals to show my repentance." Su Sansheng knelt down again and said.

Ye Xiuwen thought for a while, then waved his hands and said, "You go, I will bring the army, and then I will say."

"It's the lord!"

Su Sansheng responded, bowed back, waited eight steps away, then turned and left.

But at this time, Yue'er said: "What's wrong with him? Yesterday he was yelling, but today he seems to be a different person?"

"Su Sansheng is not a fool, but he just didn't understand for a while why he became an official and what he would do after becoming an official. He needs someone to remind him. Otherwise, if no one reminds him, then he will be in a daze forever.

This kind of official is not as good as those corrupt officials."

"What you said is wrong. Why is this honest official worse than a corrupt one?" Yue'er was puzzled, and interrupted Ye Xiuwen.

"This corrupt official, if he wants to get money, he has to do things, because only by doing things can he get money to be corrupt. But in other words, those honest officials. He doesn't want to be corrupt. He only does his own duty.

And what is the duty?It means sitting in court every day, trying cases if there are cases, and collecting local taxes if there are no cases, and it's over.

But if that's all, what's the use of him?It's better to send a tax collector when the time comes to collect the tax and it's over.

So this is why some honest officials are not as good as corrupt officials.

Of course, it is best to be honest officials. The silver taels allocated by the court can make their lives hundreds of times better than ordinary people.As long as it is not a person who is blinded by profit, it will be spent later.So there is no need for corruption and bribery. "

"Then why are there so many people greedy?" Yue'er was still puzzled.

"I didn't talk about it just now, I'm greedy for profit. How can there be enough or not enough money? I have 100 taels of silver in my hand, and there are ways to spend it. I have 100 taels of silver, and there are ways to spend 1 taels of silver.

So, this person is not content, ha ha! .”

Ye Xiuwen smiled slightly, and together with Yue'er went to find Yuan'er, Cai Die and the others, and then ordered the army to set off to the county government office.

Member Hu didn't know what was going on, and said that it was all ready earlier, so why did he leave?

Ye Xiuwen said that the county magistrate wanted to entertain the army, so he had to give it to him.

But seeing what Ye Xiuwen said, Hu Yuanwai couldn't say anything, so he could only send it off respectfully.

Ye Xiuwen and his party left Hu's house, and when they arrived at the county government office, they found it was busy.There are people inside and outside the courtyard of the county government.But when they saw Ye Xiuwen and his party coming, they knelt on the ground on both sides, and shouted "My lord, thousand years old, thousand years old, thousand years old."

Ye Xiuwen saw that this must have been arranged by the three provinces of Su, otherwise how would the local people understand this?
"Everyone, get up. The army is passing through Qingshan Town. It shouldn't disturb the people. But the army always has to find a place to stay. Please bear with me."

Ye Xiuwen cupped his hands at the people present.

The people got up and said repeatedly: "My lord? The county magistrate has already told us, your lord, is that a good lord? In order to ensure the peace of this side, we will fight everywhere!"

"That's right, my lord, we common people all know about the fact that you forcibly killed the rebel Xiao Lingfeng in Hengyang. Those people in the rivers and lakes treat us like slaves."

"No, those decent families are okay. When collecting taxes, they at least give us a way to survive. But those Jianghu gangsters are different. They often have several small sects competing to collect taxes. Who cares about our lives?"

"That's right, that's right, we'll have a good day when the prince can bring peace to the rivers and lakes, folks, right?"

"Yep!."

Everyone was chattering, saying that Ye Xiuwen's sweeping the rivers and lakes was a great thing to do.

Ye Xiuwen laughed. In fact, at the beginning, he only wanted to survive.But he didn't expect that in the end, he also did a good deed that pleased people's hearts.

"My folks have praised you. As the suzerain of the six doors and an official of the imperial court, these are what I should do.

Don't worry, everyone, if I go to the Southern Sixteen States, I will naturally wipe out the bandits, so that the Ming Dynasty will last forever, thank you! "

Ye Xiuwen clasped his fist again, and all the villagers cheered.King Qingyang is approachable, without the airs of a prince, they are very happy.

But at this time, it was Su Sansheng who ran out, still holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't gather around here anymore, let the prince eat, and the prince is still in a hurry to march!"

When Su Sansheng said this, the people dispersed with a whoosh, and Ye Xiuwen was able to escape, and went to have dinner with Su Sansheng.

Although there are no delicacies in the food, there is meat.

"My lord, here at the humble position is naturally incomparable to members of Hu Yuan's family. But the humble position has tried its best, you see?" Su Sansheng bowed tightly.

"It doesn't matter, marching and fighting actually eat the same food. It's just that I don't want my fighting power to be wasted on this journey. Otherwise, at the normal marching speed, I wouldn't have just reached Qingshan Town." Ye Xiuwen said .

But at this time, Su Sansheng thought for a while but said: "If the humble job is not wrong, the prince is trying to frighten all the sects in the world, right?"
