Don’t Be a Scumbag
Chapter 16: Brainless Second Ancestor
◎The scumbag who married a female general who "doesn't follow women's morals" (16)◎
Thinking that these officials were even more trembling, and looking at Pei Ming's honest appearance, several people couldn't help but wonder if they were too greedy in recent years, so the emperor specially sent his nephew to investigate them.
Thinking of this possibility, several officials turned pale. The old officials were better. Although they were apprehensive, their faces were barely calm, and some young officials only felt that their legs were a little weak. They were still young and had never seen any big storms, and they only thought that their career as an official was about to die halfway.
A timid young official immediately knelt down.
The official who knelt down has only been in office for two months. He was originally a concubine in his family. Because his aunt was favored and his ranking in the imperial examinations was not bad, he got a small official position by relying on his family. Since he took office, he felt that he had done nothing to hurt the world.
When his boss was embezzling, he was exposed to a little bit of light, which was not even comparable to a month's salary. Thinking that he would lose the official that his aunt finally asked for him because of this little money, the official could not wait to explain everything he knew right away, asking for a chance to confess and be lenient.
Just as the young officer was about to speak, the old officer behind him directly covered his mouth.
"woohoo"
Xiaoguan stood at the back, because he was too frightened, so he slipped to his knees without making a sound. Pei Ming hadn't seen this little official at first, and only noticed when he was covering his mouth and making a noise.
Pei Ming looked at the little official who was covering his mouth, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you covering his mouth, is he going to expose the report? I see this person as honest, he is definitely not the same as you. dude."
After Pei Ming finished speaking, the little official who was covering his mouth began to nod his head. The official who was covering his mouth couldn't hold it, and finally he could only grit his teeth and say, "Sir, we also have a last resort."
Jiang is still old and hot, and the little official next to him has not started to speak after being released, and the official who pressed his mouth has already complained.
Xiaoguan was stunned and tried to interject, but he couldn't.
"Little Li, this officer knows how difficult it is for you to say that we are, but it's better for my boss to talk about this matter. You only know a little about this matter when you first came here, so I'm definitely better than you. ."
Pei Ming didn't stop people from speaking. When the older official wanted to complain, Pei Ming nodded in agreement, and changed his posture, intending to listen carefully.
Seeing that Pei Ming had no intention of not listening to himself, the old official wiped away his sweat and continued, "Sir, you also know that our northwest is poor and our harvests have been bad year after year, so we have to have some money to spare in case of any natural disaster. of."
"Yes." Pei Ming nodded in cooperation.
Seeing Pei Ming's thoughtful look, the talking official breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his nonsense might be useful. He continued his efforts, sighed and said in a helpless tone: "Although the court will allocate disaster relief silver every time the natural disaster, but the distant thirst can't be quenched, we still have to prepare it in advance."
Pei Ming seemed to have figured out something. He frowned slightly and said, "So, you embezzled this money to help the victims for future emergencies?"
"Yep"
"That's right, Master Zhao and the rest of us think so!"
"My lord is wise, that's it." The official surnamed Zhao saw that Pei Ming's brows loosened, and immediately scolded the little official surnamed Li beside him, "Xiao Li, if you say so, you are the most honest, if you say it, the adults will definitely believe it."
Master Zhao blinked desperately to hint at the official Xiao Li. After Xiao Li received the hint, he calmed down a little, weighed the pros and cons, and found that this excuse was better than his confession and leniency.
Xiao Li swallowed and spit, then said, "Lord Prefect, that's true."
Pei Ming said: "Then why did you give this money as a bribe to this official, doesn't it mean that what you just said was all a lie to this official?"
Speaking of this, several officials vomited blood again in their hearts. How did they know that the brazen person in front of them was actually cheating them, and the skill of cheating them was called unskilled. The most outrageous thing was that they believed it.
Several people have been in the officialdom for a long time and admit that they know a lot about corruption and bribery, but they did not expect to be fooled by a young man in the end. Pei Ming couldn't even find a reason for corruption and bribery. They actually thought that Pei Ming and they were people who wore a pair of pants, which was really a shame for corrupt officials.
In order not to be accused by Pei Ming of corruption and accepting bribes, several officials had to search their stomachs again to find excuses, and finally a middle-aged official stood up.
Said: "The money given to the adults a few days ago was finally saved by the few of us. Those money are not bribes, but we want to hand the money to the prefect for safekeeping. The original prefect also kept it. It's just that after he was promoted, he left it to the adults, and he wanted the adults to keep the money on his behalf. The adults here have the highest official position, and they are also relatives of the royal family. How could they be greedy for the people's money? The trust of adults."
"So that's the case, then you guys are quite discerning. That's right, this official will not be corrupt." Pei Ming's face was a little smug.
Hearing Pei Ming's words, several officials breathed a sigh of relief again. Before the sigh of relief was completely relieved, they heard Pei Ming say: "When will you send the remaining money?"
Everyone: "???"
"Why, you don't have second-hand preparations, right?"
Several officials looked at Pei Ming with the expressions you were talking about, and Pei Ming said with a puzzled look: "This official knows that you are not stupid people, trusting this official is one thing, but in private There must be second-hand preparations, all of you are people who love the people like sons, and you must have thought about the question of what to do if the official is a corrupt official, so there must be another copy of the money in your hand to prepare for the official's corruption, right?"
What Pei Ming said was justified and well-founded. When everyone thought about it, he almost got rounded by him. Although, people who believed in Pei Ming were all made up. Where did they get the other money?
Several officials began to falter, and finally the official who just had to bite the bullet had to come out again, and then said with Pei Ming's fiery eyes: "Sir, there is no other one, this is all the money we have saved for the people. already."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Ming's face was full of disbelief, and he said, "You don't hide the money of the common people, don't you think you lied to me just now? Otherwise, how could you have no second hand? Ready?" Pei Ming asked his soul three times in a row, and finally concluded one sentence: You are joking when you say you have no money, don't lie to this official, this official knows that you are very rich.
After saying this, Pei Ming added the finishing touch and added: "This official is the emperor's nephew. If you lie to me, my uncle will not let you have good fruit to eat."
