Daxianguan

Chapter 478

Tu Zhe said with a natural expression, "No, lower officials have always been strict with themselves, and lower officials will not do such things."

"But you know, don't you?" Chu Xian asked immediately.

Tu Zhe was stunned, he had no way to refute this time, he did know, after all, as a government order, some things happened right under his nose, how could he not know.

Let’s just talk about Xie Sanhe, who came here more than once with a lot of money to give him a gift, but was rejected by him every time. I knew about this, but it was rumored that he took the money. Tu Zhe didn’t bother with such things. explain.

His principle is very simple, that is, do nothing wrong, but don't care about it. In simple terms, it is doing nothing.

"The lower officials have heard about it, but these things in the city are the responsibility of the chief scribe. The lower officials really don't know about the details." Tu Zhe took it for granted.

Chu Xian slapped the table directly, making the other party tremble.

"Tu Zhe, do you know that compared to these two corrupt officials who are corrupt and pervert the law, this official thinks that you, a government order who is not corrupt, are even more hateful. You are in the position of the government order, but you do nothing and let your subordinates do nothing." Do you think that you are not guilty if you don’t participate in them? Do you think that you are different from them? But in fact, you are the same as them.”

After finishing speaking, Chu Xian didn't bother to say any more, and directly put spiritual shackles on the other party.

Tu Zhe was in a hurry, and was obviously dissatisfied.

"Lord Inspector, even if the subordinate official made a mistake, it is only a crime of not being investigated. According to the law of the Holy Dynasty..."

Before Tu Zhe finished speaking, Chu Xian said angrily: "You still have the face to talk about the laws of the Holy Dynasty? Well, according to the laws of the Holy Dynasty, the State Governor and the Ministry of Officials are entitled to dismiss the subordinate officials of the state at any time. The governor will dismiss you today and investigate your crime of dereliction of duty."

Tu Zhe still wanted to speak, but Chu Xian already blocked his mouth with magic.

What the other party said, Chu Xian didn't want to hear it now.

In short, since Chu Xian intends to use the Wacheng knife, the knife must be cut deeply and painfully, otherwise there is no way to deter all the officials in Liangzhou.

Therefore, it is necessary to win the government order of Wacheng.

Not only the government order, but all the officials in Wacheng, as long as they colluded with the Deruixiang Chamber of Commerce, Chu Xian planned to win them all, no matter how powerful the other party's background or seniority was.

This time, there were also some low-level officials who followed Tu Zhe and others, who were too scared to speak out at this moment. When Chu Xian walked out, hundreds of red gold troops also retreated one after another.

After all, Chu Xian's official position is too strong.

Chu Xian looked at the hundreds of red gold troops, and said directly: "I am Chu Xian, the governor of Liangzhou, and this is my official amulet."

After finishing speaking, Chu Xian urged the official technique, and the governor's official talisman flew up directly, emitting golden lights in mid-air.

This is the most direct proof. Many red gold soldiers reacted and saluted immediately.

"Where is the lieutenant?" Chu Xian called out.

Soon, a person from the Red Gold Army stepped forward to salute, Chu Xian stared at him for a while, and said, "I take over your command in the name of the governor, do you have any objections?"

The lieutenant was sweating profusely from Chu Xian's official position, and since everyone knew that this was the governor of Liangzhou, how could he dare to disobey orders, so he hastily bowed down and accepted orders.

Not only him, but also the soldiers of the Red Gold Army around him.

That's what Shangguan is good at. One word to dismiss the official, one word to respond, and another official to take over the control of these soldiers, it is impossible to even think about it.

Now that he has military power, it will be much easier for Chu Xian to do anything.

At that moment, Chu Xian ordered that all Deruixiang's shops in Wacheng be sealed up, and all Deruixiang's people, no matter the shopkeeper, accountant, or clerk, be controlled.

In addition, all the accounts of De Ruixiang's shops were confiscated and sealed.Moreover, Chu Xian also issued an assassination order to mobilize two hundred elite red gold troops from Shacheng.

Now even the dullest people know that something big is going to happen.

Governor Shi Liji also rushed to Wacheng for the first time, only to find out after arriving that Chu Xian had completely controlled the situation.

The city mansion is full of elites of the Red Gold Army. Li Ji's face is also ugly when he sees the various problems of Wa city listed.

Chu Xian next to him had no expression on his face. After Li Ji finished reading, he asked, "Li Changshi, let me ask you, do you know about this?"

Li Ji sighed: "Tax evasion has happened in every state and every place. I know some things, but I didn't expect the problem to be so serious."

Chu Xian looked at Li Ji.

The latter also felt tremendous pressure under Chu Xian's gaze. You must know that Li Ji is also a figure who has been immersed in the officialdom for decades. A powerful person, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel the cold sweat on his back.

It took a long time before Chu Xian looked back.

"I believe you."

In a word, Li Ji has passed the test.

Naturally, Li Ji didn't know that Chu Xian had already read all of De Ruixiang's accounts, and there were many secret contents in them, including the records of bribing officials at all levels.

It can be said to be shocking.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really hard to believe.

Fortunately, none of the core officials of the state capital participated in it. The real core of the state capital is the governor, the long history and Sima.Including the previous governor Guo-in-law, he was also not involved.

In this regard, I have to say that these corrupt officials are smart. In the government documents they report, they are thoughtful, and it is difficult to expose mistakes. It is impossible to assist the assassins and officials in the internal affairs of a state.

But Chu Xian can be sure that Li Ji must have noticed it before, unless he is a mediocre person, but if he is a mediocre person, it is impossible to sit all the way to the official position of Governor Shi.

I noticed that there might be a problem, but I didn't investigate. Li Ji said that he was at fault, but it depends on how you understand it. If you are picky, you can definitely find fault with the egg. Chu Xian chose not to pursue it.

The reason is very simple. If Governor Shi is also implicated in this incident, then the whole Liangzhou will have no place to save face. What's more, Chu Xian has made a very clear plan at the beginning, that is, this fire will only be limited to In Wacheng, what Chu Xian has to do is to solve the problem, not to make a big disturbance in the heavenly palace, to make a mess, and not to mess up Liangzhou.

If he really did that, the high-ranking officials in Jingzhou and the immortal officials in the Shoufu Pavilion would definitely be very disappointed in themselves, even for the people of Liangzhou, it would be nothing short of a disaster.

Being an official is not to distinguish between black and white, but to solve things. Sometimes, black is white, and white is black.Since Chu Xian is an official, he must always have a steelyard and maintain a balance.

Moreover, Chu Xian has a feeling that Li Ji has a kind of "scrupulousness" about this matter. From the very beginning, Chu Xian has seen it, and even when he decided to go to various places for inspection, Li Ji recommended it. Go to Wacheng first.

He didn't realize the problem at the time, but after thinking about it later, Chu Xian guessed that Li Ji probably knew something, but he didn't dare to interfere, didn't dare to take care of it, because he was afraid of certain things, so he let himself, the governor, go.

It can't be said that Li Ji had the intention of harming others from the very beginning. The other party was not harming himself, but felt that the situation in Liangzhou, the deep-rooted chronic disease, he could not solve, and he had to rely on himself to solve it.

But Li Ji wants to solve Liangzhou's problem, but also wants to stay out of it. It's not that easy. Chu Xian doesn't like being calculated like this, so I'm sorry, Li Ji calculated it before, then Chu Xian will definitely calculate it back. This time, Li Ji was directly pulled onto the boat. If the boat sank or capsized, Li Ji would not even think of staying out of it.

Li Ji, the long history, presumably also saw Chu Xian's plan, and now he has a bitter expression on his face.

Chu Xian pretended not to see, and asked him to sort out the situation in Wacheng, and handed it over to Li Ji to catch it, and gave an order that the results must be released within two days.

This is Li Ji being pushed out of the shelves, so it doesn't matter.

So in the past two days, Chu Xian had a leisurely life, and Li Ji was suffering, but it was also because he personally investigated the matter of De Ruixiang colluding with officials in Wacheng and bullying the city, which also allowed him to truly see the essence of this matter.

"It's simply audacious." Li Ji smashed the file in his hand on the desk in the study.

Li Ji is a good official. He was selected as a top student 21 years ago. He was lucky. It is possible to climb all the way to the official position of Governor Shi without a foundation.

As a senior historian, he naturally knew something about Liangzhou, but as he said, he didn't know that the problem was so serious.

"Unexpectedly, I thought these people were just evading some tax money, and the amount would not be too large. This kind of thing happens in every state, and it is not uncommon, so I didn't pay attention to it. This year's tax evasion has actually amounted to 30 taels. That's not counting, bullying the market, monopolizing operations, and even life lawsuits. These people really regard Wacheng as their own private property. I If I had known earlier, I would have been fighting for this official position, and I would have brought these scumbags to justice."

Li Ji was short of breath at the moment.

He really didn't expect the problem to be so big. In this case, what would the governor think of his long history?

Would Lord Inspector think that he was also involved in it, or even shared the benefits.

Thinking of this, Li Ji felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, covered in cold sweat. No wonder the Inspector asked himself if he knew about it before.

This kind of thing, just thinking about it makes people frightened. Li Ji has seen storms before, but at this moment, he is also afraid for a while.

"Fortunately, I didn't know about it, and I didn't participate in it." Li Ji muttered to himself.

Then he laughed again.

"I understand. The governor is helping me by entrusting me with this job. After all, once this kind of thing is reported to the Holy Dynasty, my long-term history will be ineffective in supervision or even dereliction of duty. If someone targets me, just Based on this, my official position as a long history will not be guaranteed, but if I am responsible for investigating this matter, then a bad thing can be turned into a good thing, not only is there no fault, but it is still meritorious, Lord Inspector is helping me."
