The ghost king and princess of Feng Qingtian

Chapter 326
Walking on the road one night, Yun Yuhong looked at the deserted streets, and the people who occasionally passed by and saw them evading quickly, but was very interested in the magistrate, who was in charge of the government office, and looked at Duanmu Tianzi's fat servant, Yun Yuhong asked: "I don't know what the prefect's surname is, can he be very fierce?"

The fat yamen servant said with a smile: "Don't worry, our prefect Liu is not at all vicious. He is an adult from Moyun. He is serious about his work. You can go back when someone from your family confirms your identity and pays a deposit. .”

"Security deposit? What is that, do you want to accept a gift?" Duanmu Tianzi asked.

The fat yamen servant was dissatisfied and said: "What kind of gift is it? It's a deposit. I guarantee that you will have no problems. If you don't provoke trouble after a month, it will still be returned to you. Our lord is an upright official, so we don't accept any gift money. "

Yun Yuhong smiled and said: "But one of us is a weak woman and the other is a pregnant woman. We checked in the city and nothing happened. We have already confirmed that there is no trouble. Why do we have to pay a security deposit?"

The fat yamen servant sneered and said, "Women? The ghost king is also a woman, can that be underestimated? Besides, if you don't make trouble today, maybe you just come to pick some, and you will make trouble in two days. Only you know about it." , we dare not be careless."

"Then you can guarantee that we will not cause trouble by collecting the deposit? What can the deposit guarantee?"

"If you make trouble, we will confiscate the security deposit. I think no one will have trouble with money."

After talking, a few people came to the front of the government yamen, and the fat yamen servant led them inside and explained to them before leaving. Yun Yuhong saw a row of people standing at the entrance of the lobby, and there were tables and chairs on the left. The master of the government office, many people pay money there, and then get a list, and they can leave.

I walked up and took a look. The receipt was a receipt, which said that I received a deposit of one tael from someone. If there is no violation of the law, it can be refunded after ten days. all.Yun Yuhong raised her eyebrows and finally understood what the security deposit was all about.

An old man next to him who had just paid the money sighed and walked out the door. Yun Yuhong asked, "Old man, what's the matter with you? Why are you sighing? Will the money be returned in a few days?"

The old man glanced at Yun Yuhong, and said in a low voice: "I haven't returned what I paid last time, so I paid it again this time. I'm just doing a small business, and I have to come out every day. If I don't come out, how can I support the whole family?" Everyone, that's good, every time I come out, I have to pay one tael of silver, so I can't live my life."

A person on the side also came up and said: "Don't expect to go back after you pay the money, as long as you come out, you have to pay, but if you don't get the money after three days, you won't go back, so, just treat it as a purchase." A lesson, go back and stay honest, try not to go out, and hide from people in the yamen when you go out."

"Then if I don't have money, what should I do if I can't pay the deposit?" Duanmu Tianzi asked.

"There are two choices. One is to stay in the prison, and the other is to be dragged to the quarry to work as a coolie. You can only leave after earning enough money."

"But we are women, and there is a pregnant woman, what should we do if we can't do coolies?"

"Don't worry, they don't arrest ordinary women. They probably came to you because you have some money in your family. Alas, the world in this Moyun country is too dark, and we don't know how we will live in the future."

Yun Yuhong sneered and nodded. Not only did these officials not repent, but they were also dissatisfied, and then they changed the law to make things happen, so that they could maintain law and order and prevent problems. They must do it, and they did it really well. You guys I will do the order, but I will not let the people think you are good, you have to be stable, I will not only give you stability, but I will also give you peace.I am not corrupt, but I will not give up searching for the people. I will not take the money.

Yun Yuhong was tired from walking, and looked at the master, who was actually very unpleasant, walked over and pulled someone up from the chair and threw it to the entrance of the hall, sat on the chair by herself, and said to the few yamen servants who were about to rush over : "Go and invite your prefect Liu out, let him come to see me, and say that the ghost king has arrived."

The yamen servants didn't believe it, how could the ghost king come here, how could the ghost king look so weak like her, who would believe it, they still rushed up to grab someone, but they haven't touched Yun Yuhong yet On the body of Yun Yuhong, the laughing grass behind Yun Yuhong knocked these people down in a few strokes. People looked at Yun Yuhong and the others in amazement, and they all opened their mouths in surprise. Looking at this posture, is this really the King of Ghosts?

Xiaocao didn't expect those yamen servants to report the letter anymore, she walked into the lobby by herself, and after a while, she brought out a white, fat and wide adult in official clothes.

This Mr. Liu really came from the capital, and when he saw Yun Yuhong, he exclaimed: "Ghost king, ghost king, spare your life, ghost king, spare your life!"

Yun Yuhong sneered and said: "You are Mrs. Liu, tell me what you have done, do you want me to spare your life?"

Mr. Liu was stunned for a moment, then quickly calmed down, knelt down and said, "Greetings to the ghost king, I don't know what I did wrong to make the ghost king angry, so I sent someone in to arrest me, and please tell the ghost king."

Yun Yuhong looked at him and smiled: "It's nothing, I was called to pay the deposit today, but I'm not very satisfied with the plan of paying the deposit, I want to ask Master Liu, if the king can't afford it What can I do with the security deposit, is it possible that I will stay in the prison for a few days?"

Master Liu was sweating, and hurriedly replied: "Of course not, how could the ghost king cause trouble. The lower officials dare not accept the ghost king's deposit."

Yun Yuhong shook her head and said, "No, Master Liu should treat everyone equally. You don't accept mine, and you don't accept these ordinary people's, that's only fair. But I'm curious, will you know about the security deposit? Who came up with this idea, you, a magistrate, may not be able to decide."

The sweat on Mr. Liu's head became more violent, so he said that this method is not good, but everyone doesn't want Bai Xiangye and the ghost king to be safe, and they dare not provoke them clearly, so they come secretly, but who knows that they will be caught by the ghost king Right now, now that the ghost king asked, he really didn't know how to answer.

Yun Yuhong looked at the Zeyu people who were watching the excitement, suppressed his anger, and said with a smile: "You don't have to pay the money today, and you will also convey it when you go back. Those who paid the money will come to the yamen to return it. It’s time to give way to the streets, it’s time to do business, and it’s time to live as it was in the past, don’t worry, no one will dare to arrest people again.”

The common people were very happy when they heard it, and thanked them one after another, and then they were sent out of the yamen.

Yun Yuhong asked Master to take charge of refunding the money, and then took Liu Zhifu back to the palace.

Bai Ziyu soon learned of the news, and came to the gate of the palace to meet Yun Yuhong. Yun Yuhong explained the matter, took Bai Ziyu's hand and said, "It's been hard for you these days. I don't care about these government affairs, but what should I do?" I still have to say something about what I said, call all the people transferred from Mo Yun together tomorrow, let me say a few words."

Bai Ziyu nodded. Indeed, although Emperor Qianzong gave him a decree saying that he would handle Zeyu's affairs with full power, he did not send him any capable people, nor did he give him any other support. Some people, some things It's really not something he can handle alone, at least some things are not as clear and straightforward as Yun Yuhong's.

Early the next morning, Yun Yuhong went to the main hall to attend the court meeting, and among those who came were not only Mo Yunlai's ministers, but also representatives of Zeyu's aristocratic family.

After everyone saluted, Yun Yuhong came down from the high place, came to Minister Mo Yun and said, "I know, you are very upset that I transferred you to Zeyu, and you have conflicts in your heart, it's okay, I might let you go back to Mo Yun, However, there are some things I want to make clear. It was my decision to transfer you here, and the reason why I let you come is because I want to give you a chance. You are begging for gifts and forming cliques in Beijing. Going further, but I absolutely do not allow you to be promoted to a higher level just because you are relatives of certain people, or you can be promoted by a gift. If you want to be promoted, you must rely on your ability and political achievements .”

Seeing that everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, Yun Yuhong continued: "But I gave you the opportunity, and the Prime Minister has seen your abilities. To be honest, it's not very good, so I don't plan to use you anymore. Tomorrow I will Go back to Moyun, of course, it's hard to say whether your original positions are suitable for you, so let's wait for them when we go back, and then we will be appointed after we return to Beijing."

All the ministers knelt down as soon as they heard it. Yun Yuhong spoke nicely, but in fact, there was no difference between them and their officials. They all knew the influence of the ghost king in Mo Yun's court and in Qianzong's heart. As long as the ghost king If you don't speak, absolutely no one will dare to use them again.

A minister distinguished: "Ghost King, what did you do wrong? We did our best when we arrived in Zeyu, and we didn't dare to be lazy for a moment."

Yun Yuhong smiled and said: "You have indeed done a lot, and I can't say that you are wrong. I only say that your ability is limited and you have not achieved the results I want. You must be clear in your heart that if you do something wrong, it is not like this. Talk to me, you may have been beheaded a long time ago. Some things are clear to you even if I don’t say them, there are too many petty moves, I don’t like it.”

But the minister didn't want to let it go, he was still arguing: "Ghost King, if you want to dismiss our officials, you must give us an explanation."

Yun Yuhong rubbed his stomach, and said with a smile: "Are you sure you want to listen, you are not afraid that after I finish speaking, you will not even have a way to survive, are you sure you don't want to discuss it with them?"
