Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 150 Xu Qing Lost Insanity

Speaking of having no money, Xu Qing became even more angry, and put aside the evidence collected by the underground river in his hand and said loudly:

"You falsely reported the farm cattle as sick cattle to be slaughtered and fed to dogs, how much money do you want to give away?"

"How much did you pay for the hundred dog houses built privately in the north of Hejian City?"

"Also, every dog ​​hires a dog slave to eat, drink and feed. How much is the silver?"

As soon as Xu Qing said a few words, the whole hall changed color.Many government officials know about these things.Liu Mo loves dogs like his life, so the officials below serve these dogs better than humans in order to curry favor with him.But everyone knew these things from the bottom of their hearts, but no one dared to say a word in front of Liu Mo.

Liu Mo said angrily: "Xu Qing, what are you talking about, these fighting dogs are raised by the official to guard against thieves."

The master at the side also smiled apologetically: "Xu Cishi, you misunderstood, these dogs are indeed for preventing thieves."

Xu Qing sneered and said, "Keeping a dog as a police dog? Only a thick-skinned person can say such things. Liu Mo, I advise you, don't think that you can cover the sky with one hand if you can live here in southern Hebei."

After hearing Xu Qing's words, Liu Mo became silent, afraid to respond, thinking to himself, what kind of confidence does Xu Qing have to be so rampant in my territory?By the way, this is my territory!Liu Mo clenched his fists, but Xu Qing looked at the other officials present and said, "You guys help the tyrant to do evil, do everything right, and do more evil. In the future, the court will investigate, and you will also wear this prison cell together."

The officials were also guilty from the bottom of their hearts, and Xu Qing was speechless.

As for Liu Mo, he shouted with a ferocious expression: "Come on, come on, this Xu Qing has lost his mind and is insane, talking nonsense, take him down."

All the yamen servants and Zaoli rushed into the hall together. Xu Qing was originally a man who had been in the army, and his tiger eyes were even more frightening. Then he reprimanded: "Which one dares to move?"

Seeing Xu Qing's majesty, Zaoli, the servants of the yamen, did not dare to step forward and took three steps back.

Xu Qing walked up to Liu Mo and said, "Now that the matter has come to an end, I would like to advise you to report your matter to the chief executive very early, and ask for it."

Hearing this, Liu Mo looked Lin Yanchao up and down, and laughed suddenly: "I just kept a few dogs, what is it a crime? But you are roaring in the court today, and you don't pay attention to me as a superior. Please refer to me and see who it is Usha is not guaranteed."

Xu Qing was silent, Liu Mo then reprimanded:
"Hmph, you are a young child, and you are being arrogant. Do you think you can bring down this official with a few words of quarrel? Do you think it is your imperial envoy? You have the flag of the king's order, so you can kill this official?"

At this moment, a yamen servant shouted: "Liu Zan, the chief executive of Southern Hebei, is back!"

Are there visitors outside?
Liu Mo's heart trembled. How could it be possible? Didn't Liu Zan go to Youzhou?No matter how you say it, it will come.Could it be the energy of the kid in front of him?How is it possible for Xindao... Everyone was also surprised, and they also asked Xu Qing what ability he had to invite Liu Zan back.If he really has this energy, then he has to think about who to help today.

In any case, Liu Mo wanted to cut through the mess quickly, took out the document that had already been written, stamped it with a seal, and quickly said: "The order from the supervisor, Xu Qing was frightened into hysteria, and all his errands will be spared, and he will be escorted first. Please treat the doctor well."

Xu Qing finally saw Liu Mo's ability to turn things around, and he thought it was really beyond compare.

At this time, Liu Mo said selflessly: "Inspector Xu, you are yelling at the court, contradicting the superior, and bullying your subordinates. I will report to the court. If it is really the cause of madness, I will intercede for you and will not let you suffer." Innocent."

A honest and loud voice sounded outside the door:

"Who wants to punish Governor Xu?"

Everyone looked towards the door, and at this moment, a senior official in a scarlet robe and gold belt came to the front of the main hall.This person is Liu Zan, the Chief of Ji Nan Zhengyin who rushed back from Youzhou.

Liu Zan glanced at Xu Qing who was also wearing the scarlet robe, nodded, then looked at the stage, and asked knowingly, "Who wants to punish Governor Xu?"

Facing the Zhengyin official, Liu Mo could only put aside his previous domineering attitude for the time being, stood up, and invited Liu Zan to take his seat: "My lord, please, I don't know why you suddenly returned to southern Hebei?"

"I'm going back to Jinan, should I tell you that it won't work?" Liu Zan said while sitting in the main hall, frowning.

"Um, the officials talk too much..." Liu Mo lowered his head, very honest.

"Just now I heard outside the door that Governor Xu suffered from hysteria. Governor Xu, is it true?" Liu Zan asked Xu Qing, leaving Liu Mo aside.

But Liu Mo rushed to reply: "Exactly, this Inspector Xu was roaring in the hall like crazy just now, and he almost beat Bie Jia to death a few days ago!"

"Did I ask you?" Liu Zan asked unwillingly.

"Here..." Liu Mo stepped aside and let Xu Qing speak.

Xu Qinglang said in a loud voice: "Director, I am impeaching Liu Mo, the deputy director of Jinan Road, for three major crimes..."

Xu Qing uttered a word immediately, and everyone in the room was shocked!It is rare for officials to stand up and slap each other in the face when they participate in impeachment.

Liu Mo was startled and angry. After a while, he turned his head to look at Xu Qing, but Xu Qing said loudly.

"The first crime is to coerce the local government and tyrannize the people!"

"The third crime is embezzling public funds and keeping dog slaves!"

"The third crime is turning black and white and framing colleagues!"

Xu Qingxiu took out the memorial from his sleeve, and personally presented it: "The matter reported by the lower official is detailed in the memorial, please take a look at it." Where did Xu Qing have any memorial, but he gave Liu the evidence collected by the dark river. That's all.When he turned around, he looked at Liu Mo for a moment, and then with a flick of his sleeves, the whole room was full of wind!

Blue veins burst out on Liu Mo's forehead and he roared, "Xu Qing, you and I are colleagues, why are you so vicious and want to kill me?"

Xu Qing said solemnly: "I have no enmity or enmity with Mr. Liu, but as an official, we should think of the common people."

Indeed, before the future of Hejian, Xu Qing at most wanted to make Liu Mo suffer, but he hadn't thought of putting him to death.Seeing that the livelihood of the people in Hejian is so difficult, his heart is stronger than Shi Jian for a moment, and he must completely get rid of Liu Mo's evil before he can rest assured.

As the saying goes, a centipede is dead but not stiff, Liu Mo has been in Hejian for such a long time, and he is not afraid of Xu Qing's impeachment for these three crimes, so he sneered: "It is not so easy for you to bring down this official. "

"Then can I bring you down?" Liu Zan also sneered.

"Hmph..." Liu Mo snorted coldly, and he already understood that Xu Qing and Liu Zan were really teaming up to punish him, so he and Liu Zan also broke their faces: "I didn't say it, you are the official of Zhengyin. How? I am a senior member of the fourth rank, and you have the right to dispose of me without an order from the court? Besides, what evidence do you have..."

Liu Zan took out the evidence collected by Xu Qing, and before he could examine it carefully, a general came outside the main hall and said, "General, the general has sealed off all the official warehouses in this mansion. After cross-examination, compare the accounts. , it was found that more than [-] taels of official wealth were resold..."

When Liu Mo heard this, he immediately went limp. It turned out that Xu Qing was arguing with him here just to deceive people and ask the other side to check the warehouse.

Liu Zan said angrily: "I never thought I'd only been out for a few months, and you could make so much money. Hmph, just because of the reselling of official wealth, this official can strip you of your position!"

"Come here!" Liu Zan shouted, "Take off Liu Mo's official uniform, temporarily suspend all seals, and put him in custody!"

Liu Zan is a veteran and authentic chief executive, and no one dared not listen to his words, which meant that the tiger's skin had been pulled off Liu Mo's body.Liu Mo, who used to be majestic and mighty, now looks like a candle in the wind.

People's clothes, tree bark, who would be willing to take off an official uniform, but when he was about to take off Liu Mo's official uniform, he jumped over the wall in a hurry and shouted: "Who dares to do it! If there is no order, I will still act as the temporary governor of Jinan." , who dares to do it!"

Liu Zan was not easy to provoke either, he sneered and said, "You dare to be arrogant in front of me, since you don't want to take off your official uniform, just tie it up with a rope!"

The yamen servant who was going to bind Liu Mo was the soldier Liu Zan brought from Youzhou. He was never afraid of swords, guns and arrows. How could he be afraid of Liu Mo's intimidation, so he looked at Liu Mo and said, "Master Liu, the matter is over, Don't do things in vain, otherwise the hall will be in front of you, and it will not look good."

Liu Mo glared at Liu Zan, then at Xu Qing, but he was powerless to return to the sky, and he could only settle the score after autumn, and said in court: "I won't just forget about today's matter, you two, you just wait and see." Impeach Ben!"

After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves heavily, took off his official uniform and hat, and left proudly.The soldiers behind him rushed up and took him into custody.

Xu Qing recalled the appearance of the master acting as a minion for the tiger, and stepped forward and said: "Master, Liu Mo's master is also a running dog, and he has done all kinds of things that hurt the nature and reason. Please ask the master to question him as well."

Hearing this, the officials present thought to themselves: It's fine if you knock down Liu Mo, but also shoot out this little mosquito, it's a vengeance!
This master offended Xu Qing, and it was just his own master, but now he is punished by Xu Qing, is this revenge?
The master was trembling with anger, pointed at Xu Qing and said: "You are avenging your own private revenge, you have a personal grudge with Master Liu, if you harm him, you will also harm me."

"Nonsense!" Xu Qing said solemnly: "I have never met you before, why do you want to harm you, you spit out blood, slander Shangguan, that is adding to the crime, please be clear."

The master's eyes were reddened at this moment, and he flew towards Lin Yanchao and cursed: "I will hold you back even if I die!" However, he had no strength to restrain the chicken, so Xu Qing stepped back a little, and the yamen guard stopped him.

This official beat people up in the hall, it became a joke.

All the people present covered their faces and said: "This is out of order, out of order."

So far, the matter between Liu Mo and Xu Qing has been settled, at least it has nothing to do with Xu Qing.It's just that, since then, Xu Qing has added another label of "flaws must be reported", and no one in the official circles in southern Hebei dares to provoke Xu Qing anymore.After Liu Zan left, the imperial court sent an upright general manager, who was also a man of the mean, who had no influence on Xu Qing.

When I returned to Cangzhou, I stayed at home and saw that it had snowed heavily for half a month outside the door, and I couldn't get out, and no one else could get in.There is no green vegetables to eat, so I can only eat dates to supplement vitamins every day, and blisters have grown in my mouth.

Suddenly one day, the snow outside the door was cleared out of the way.
