Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 22

Before the ashes are cold, Shandong is in chaos. It is said that the folk customs in Shandong are tough, and it has been a place for thieves since ancient times.Kangxi said this time that he came to inspect the river works, but in the end, he came to appease the people's hearts. No, as soon as the parents and officials in those places sat down, the old man issued an order: the Ding'e Fu in Shandong Province will be exempted for two years.

As soon as the tax exemption edict came out, the people standing in the distance immediately cheered and knelt down in a large group, shouting long live, although those local officials also knelt down to thank the Lord Long En, but in Yinzuo's opinion, this official There is a bit of bitterness in the smile, there is no other, no tax, where is the fire consumption, the people don't have to pay taxes, and they have no way to make money.

Listening to the cheers from the bottom of the heart of the people, Mr. Kangxi was in a particularly comfortable mood. Once he was comfortable, he talked a lot. He chatted with the officials about the customs of Shandong, and asked about the harvests of various places from time to time. , The public security situation is a scene of harmony between the monarch and his ministers.Although Yinzuo has lived for two lifetimes, he has a lot of knowledge, but this is the first time he has heard about these customs, and he listened with great interest. Just as he was listening, he suddenly heard Mr. Kangxi snorting coldly. Said: "what's the matter, sir?"

With a "plop", an official fell to his knees, wearing a plain gold top, four-clawed five-python official robe and a purple mandarin duck mending suit, he seemed to be a seventh-rank official, not tall, a little shabby-looking, thin but But with a face of loyalty.Yin Zuo noticed that this guy was sitting on the bottom restlessly, twisting his body from time to time. He thought that this guy was nervous, but he never thought that this guy was twisting endlessly, and it became more and more intense. It was caught on the spot.

"Your Majesty, I'm in a hurry." This buddy got angry before he finished speaking, and his robes were wet a lot, and all the officials in the audience blushed immediately. Laughed a lot.

A little sesame official actually committed a scandal of urinating his pants in public under his own nose, which immediately pissed off Mr. Kangxi.The little official was honest and honest, but he was not stupid. He knew that he had committed a serious crime of being rude to the king. If he didn't explain it, he might never have to speak in his life. I!"

"Huh?" Grandpa Kangxi inspected the officials below with an ugly face.

"Your Majesty, I just found out that the holy chariot is coming early this morning, so I rushed here, but I drank two bowls of porridge in the morning and waited for more than two hours. I couldn't hold it anymore. They all knew that the holy chariot For the lucky thing, everyone only eats dry food, so they can naturally withstand it, and this humble minister can't help it."

"Resume? Why did they punish you?" Mr. Kangxi's tone softened a bit, but he was still very cold.

The little official's eyes were red and his neck was swollen, and he said loudly: "My minister Liu Siyuan was born as a second-class Jinshi in the 15th year of Kangxi, and he has been the magistrate of Qinghe County in the 20th year of Kangxi. I am poor and have no money to curry favor with my boss. I have never been favored by my boss. , They, they work together to punish the ministers."

He was born as a Jinshi in the 15th year of Kangxi, and now he can be a daoist if he doesn't say much. At worst, he is a fifth-rank magistrate. This buddy has been a county magistrate for eight years, but it is rare. Calling poor in the face of the emperor, the old man Kangxi immediately became interested, and asked after a moment of pondering: "Since you have been the county magistrate of Qinghe for eight years, then I will come to test you. How many households and fields are there in Qinghe?"

Liu Siyuan replied without thinking: "Reporting to the Holy Lord, Qinghe County has a total of 13452 households, 243660 males, 5637 fields, of which 2312 are fertile fields, 457 cattle, and 408 horses."

Although Liu Siyuan answered quickly, Kangxi did not express his opinion immediately, but turned to Qian Yu, governor of Shandong, and asked, "Is it true?" Although Qian Yu was considered a capable official, how could he remember the situation in the county below? In the face of the Holy One, you can't say that you don't know. Doesn't that show that you are incompetent?A charge of dereliction of duty is enough to remove the crown, of course he replied without hesitation: "It is true."

Who is Kangxi?That's a generation of holy ancestors, how can it be so easy to fool, at a glance, you can tell that the old boy Qian Yu is making a mess, he doesn't know it at all, but he doesn't point it out, and said in a cold voice: "I am determined to visit Qinghe .”

If you are lucky, you will be lucky, but it is hard for those officials: Qinghe is not far from Xianxian County, that is, a few tens of miles away, Mr. Kangxi can ride a royal luan, and Yin Zuo can ride a horse even if he is an elder brother. But those local officials didn't have a seat in the sedan chair, so they could only walk there among the guards.Except for a few military officers, most of the opening officials are pampered and pampered. How can they walk so many roads on weekdays? When they reach the ground, all of them are as soft as snakes. If it weren't for the presence of the holy driver, I'm afraid they would have fallen to the ground Fortunately, it was almost dark at this time, and Mr. Kangxi waved his hand, so that the group of officials went to the post station to rest.

When it comes to Qinghe, one cannot fail to mention the Qinghe Cui surname. Qinghe Cui Na was one of the four major surnames in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Although it has declined now, after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. There are also a few officials surnamed Cui, who are considered officials and eunuchs, and they are still much higher than ordinary rich men. This time when Kangxi came, he requisitioned the Cui family's garden.

Yin Zuo has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has never stopped riding and shooting. His small body is well-trained, but he has never ridden a horse for such a long time. After freshening up and planning to take a rest, the old man sent someone to call, and had no choice but to follow the little eunuch to Kangxi's room.As soon as he entered the door, he saw the old man was reading the brochure by the light, he quickly knelt down: "I have seen Huang Ama."

"no."

"Thank you, Huang Ama." Yinzuo stood up straight, peeping, the old man was looking at the account books, presumably because he was worried about his subordinates, he checked the accounts of Qinghe County by himself.

"Xiao Liuer, what do you think about this matter today?"

"Returning to Huang Ama, this magistrate Liu looks like an honest person. If what he said is true, he should be a practical person. It's just that he is too upright and not good at meeting people. What happened today again, son I think, this person may not be able to continue working in this Shandong territory."

"Well." Kangxi nodded noncommittally, stood up, took a few steps, and said slowly: "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. In the morning, when you change your clothes, you will be accompanied by Master Chen." Visit the people."

Weibo private interview, ha, we like this game.As soon as Yinzuo was happy, the fatigue in the daytime disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he replied loudly: "My son obeys orders."
