If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

All the officials in the hall were speechless by Lin Ke.

rebel?

What a nonsense statement.

Too far-fetched!

But everyone knew that Lin Ke's remarks were actually just nonsense.

And they are powerless in the face of this nonsense.

Because sometimes, there are too many reasons for a superior to want to engage a subordinate, and you can find a bunch of reasons at random.

Why the left foot enters the door first, why the first chopstick picks up the meat first, why the wine glass is higher than the other side...

In short, if you want to find faults, you can find faults no matter what.

Seeing that there was nothing he could do, Lord Kang gritted his teeth and scolded a skinny young official: "Master Lin has already told you, why don't you go get some pen and paper?! Are you all just rats?"

Mr. Kang was clever and did not talk about the accounts, but asked someone to bring paper and pen.

"Send the pen and paper to the place where you store the files." Lin Ke said, "Master Kang, could you please lead the way."

Upon seeing this, Mr. Kang also knew that Lin Ke would not give up today, so he had no choice but to act in panic and lead the way.

Lin Ke looked natural, with his hands behind his back and walked along with a smile.

After a while, they came to a warehouse.

There was a fat old man waiting here, with traces of freshly wiped saliva on the corners of his mouth.

It looked like he was the person guarding the warehouse. He had just fallen asleep and was woken up by someone coming.

"My lord..." The old man had a smile on his face and rubbed his hands to think of something to say.

Lin Ke just smiled and nodded, then passed the man and walked in directly.

There are several large rows of shelves in the house, on which various files, information, and account books are neatly arranged in categories.

Lin Ke didn't care about other people, but looked through various information on his own.

The power of change in his body was transformed into literary energy that filled his body, allowing him to read and analyze quickly.

Sometimes I look at the catalog, and sometimes I look at the specific content, specific subjects, and projects.

Some he put down and some he took in his hands.

In less than half an hour, he had dozens of thick books of accounts and files piled up in his hands.

When he came out, Zhuge Li and Pei Qian were already waiting outside.

At the same time, there was a large group of officials waiting there.

When I went out and saw a large group of officials being silent, I was a little shocked.

Lin Ke was stunned for a second, and then said with a smile on his face:
"Thank you for your hard work, you don't have to stay here. I checked the account book and will kill you first. Please leave quickly, otherwise I thought you were going to rebel. If you rebel, I won't be polite."

"Master Lin, Master Lin, wait a minute." Master Kang stood at the front and smiled flatteringly. There were two other people in official uniforms on the left and right.

He should be Yuanwailang from the other two departments.

"Mr. Lin, my subordinate is Wang Jian, the Chief of Staff."

"The lower official is Si Feng Si Zhang Dong."

The two people saluted in turn.

Lin Ke did not return the greeting, but asked with a smile: "What, do the three adults want to rebel?" Master Kang's expression suddenly changed.

Compared with before entering the warehouse, Lin Ke's words now were murderous!
Moreover, the left sentence is rebellion and the right sentence is rebellion, which is even more unkind!
It was obvious that Lin Ke had been looking at the accounts for half an hour, and his anger could no longer be suppressed.

"Master Lin, why do you say this? We are just here to salute you, why are you slandering us as rebels?" Next to Master Kang, the old man from Zhang Dong asked in a deep voice.

Lin Ke was not annoyed when he heard this. He just smiled and glanced at Zhang Dong: "From what I can see so far, you are relatively honest among these people. You have never made false accounts or committed corruption."

"I have been upright and upright throughout my life. I am worthy of your majesty and worthy of the people. How can you, a slanderous brat like you, be allowed to slander me?" Zhang Dong snorted coldly:
"I am from the Wuwei lineage of Taoism. I never pay attention to fame and fortune, and I am not afraid of life and death. If you want to kill me, I will kill you."

The officials did not dare to say anything, and all looked down at their feet.

Lin Ke couldn't be offended, and their boss was also smelly and tough. It was not good to offend anyone.

"Oh? Curing by doing nothing?"

Lin Ke sneered: "I only said that you did not commit corruption or false accounts. When will I say that you are not guilty?"

He casually pulled out a file and said, "From the year 931 of the Holy Emperor Calendar to the present, you have appointed your disciples to power more than [-] times."

"Suppress dissidents. If others don't agree with your concept of inaction, they won't be able to join your office. No matter how young and talented they are, they won't recommend them. Official positions are determined based on a person's birthplace."

"A total of more than 600 people have come and gone, involving more than 200 positions. This is still the case in the Staff Department alone, not counting the other [-] departments."

"Although you are not stealing money from the imperial court, what is the difference between doing so and buying and selling officials? And the motivation is just your personal views and identity."

Lin Ke was merciless, Zhang Dong was cold and hard, and his tone also became cold and hard:
"Do you really think that I don't dare to kill anyone?"

The next moment, Lin Ke chanted "Kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace in a thousand miles", and a short blade appeared in his hand.

As long as this Zhangdong opens his mouth, he can take five steps with blood splattered on the spot!
"This this……"

Zhang Dong's eyes widened and his beard trembled with anger, but he did not dare to speak again.

If he died before Lin Ke said what he had done, he would be a representative of uprightness and breeze.

However, if Lin Ke were to kill him after he said those things, he would be infamy for thousands of years and would be classified as a corrupt official.

Death is also a white death.

"Calm down your anger, calm down your anger." Mr. Kang was waving his hands wildly at this time, with a frightened expression: "Master Lin, a crime does not lead to death, a crime does not lead to death! If Mr. Zhang deserves to die, Xingbu will naturally arrest him and bring him to justice. There is no need to be dirty. It’s Master Lin’s hand!”

"And you." Lin Ke turned his eyes to Master Kang: "Master Kang, you are usually so kind and friendly, but I never thought that you would be such a smiling tiger."

"Boom."

Lin Ke dispersed his literary spirit and short blade, threw the books and things in his hands on the ground, ignored the disbelief in Master Kang's eyes, and said:

"Every year when officials are evaluated, the assets and liabilities of the Examination Department will increase by about [-]%. I don't know how you used it to have such a large network of connections to completely remove yourself from bribery."

"Master Lin, don't make up nonsense."

Mr. Kang originally looked panic-stricken, but after hearing "Ten percent", his expression turned gloomy: "I do things cleanly and conscientiously, and I have never made any mistakes."

"Oh?"

Lin Ke smiled: "Don't you think that the word "Qiao Li Ning" is unique to this dynasty?"

With that said, Lin Ke waved to Pei Qian: "Pei Qian, come up here, draw a balance sheet, and summarize the accounts of last year's Merit Examination Department into the table."

He picked up one of the accounts and handed it over.

"Lord."

Pei Qian walked up, took the account book, picked up paper and pen, started to read, and then wrote and drew on the table that had been prepared nearby. (End of chapter)
