Fortunate Young Gentleman

Ping'an County Government.

Tang Ning was alone in the back office, and asked Peng Chen to arrange for the government officials to collect evidence one by one. It would be good to have a capable sister. In the future, she should be nicer to Su Huhu and hug her tightly. There is no chance that she will be asked to marry her in the future. place.

In the front office, the files of several cases were stacked on top of each other, and Zhong Mingli was sorting through them one by one, seemingly in a hurry.

The government officials were not idle either, running around in and out of the hall.

County Magistrate's Office, County Magistrate Zhao looked at a police officer and asked, "You said Zhong Mingli found out the clues. Which case did he find out?"

The policeman said: "It was Secretary Xu's case last year."

"Xu Shuli's case?" Zhao Xiancheng thought for a while and said, "Then let him investigate. For a case that even the Ministry of Punishment can't find out, he really thinks he is Master Qingtian."

In August last year, a murder case occurred in the capital. The deceased was a minor official from Ping'an County Government. He was burned to death at home. At that time, more than a dozen houses were affected, and several civilians died. In the capital, The impact is not small.

The Ministry of Punishment has not yet concluded whether Secretary Xu's death was an accident or a murder. How could Zhong Mingli get to the bottom of this case just by relying on some files?

He used the title of county magistrate to guarantee that this time, Zhong Mingli would only become a joke to the entire county government.

He glanced at County Captain Zheng and said, "Master Zheng, it's your turn."

At the same time that Zheng County Lieutenant made his move, several figures walked to the gate of the county government office.

If anyone pays attention, they can see that on the street in front of the county government office, there are many more pedestrians than usual, forming a siege around the county government office gate.

A young man stepped forward and said a few words to the yamen servant at the gate of the county government office. The yamen servant swayed, then immediately stood up straight and allowed those people to walk in.

The middle-aged man at the front stood in the courtyard of the Yamen and looked around, with a slightly surprised expression on his face.

For a small government office like Ping'an County Government, the people working under the cadre make people feel better than expected.

Not to mention that their clothes were cleaner and neater than most of the government offices he had been to, and their spirits were better. They walked with their heads held high, and they didn't seem to be lazy. Busy.

A government official discovered them, walked over and asked, "Are you..."

Ling Yun showed a waist card and said, "You are busy with your business, we will take a look at the county government office."

"What is this?" The yamen officer glanced at his waistband and said, "Where are you serving as a county yamen? You can take a look if you want..."

Ling Yun: "..."

The young administrator was about to ask again, when someone unexpectedly kicked him in the butt. An older government official stepped forward and said with a smile: "Please don't blame the new guy for being ignorant. I will inform the county magistrate right away..."

"No need." Ling Yun waved to him and said, "We are just taking a look at the county government office, and you stay with us."

In the front office, Zhong Mingli was looking at the files at his desk. Hearing the voice coming from outside the door, he looked up and asked, "Who are you?"

…

Tangning walked out from behind and saw several figures standing in the hall. She was startled and was about to speak. Zhong Mingli looked at him and said, "Let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Zhao from the Criminal Department."

Tang Ning looked at Chen Huang, who was wearing casual clothes, and Zhao Man, who was standing behind Chen Huang and winking at him, dressed in men's clothing, and wondered which song they were singing...

Wei Jian winked at him, and Tang Ning immediately came back to her senses, cupped her hands and said, "Mr. Zhao."

Zhong Mingli looked at him and said, "I still have some files to sort out. You can take Mr. Zhao to the side room to sit down first."

Tangning stretched out her hand and said, "Mr. Zhao, please."

As soon as he walked out of the Yamen, Zhao Man looked at him and asked, "Didn't you say you were sick? Why are you here?"

"Cough, cough!" Tang Ning coughed heavily, cupped her hands to Emperor Chen, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, although I am sick, I really can't stay idle at home. As the county government has been busy recently, Your Majesty also Knowing that Magistrate Zhong is my father-in-law, I thought of coming to the county government office to see if there was anything I could do to help."

Emperor Chen glanced at him and said, "Since you are sick, you should take a good rest at home. Local officials should take care of the county government affairs."

Zhao Man walked up to him, looked at him carefully, and said, "I think you look very good. Are you pretending to be sick?"

"Cough, cough!" Tangning coughed heavily into her face twice more and said weakly, "The doctor said my disease is contagious, so Princess, please stay away from me."

"You're spitting all over my face!" Zhao Man glared at him and immediately hid away.

Chen Huang looked at the police officers and police officers coming and going in the courtyard and asked, "Is the county government very busy recently?"

Tang Ning nodded and said, "The Ministry of Punishment issued an official document instructing the county government to close several backlogged cases from last year as soon as possible. In recent days, everyone in the county government has been busy with this matter. I couldn't stay idle at home, so I came to take a look. "

Emperor Chen nodded and said, "Since you are here, show me around. This is my first time here at Ping'an County Government."

Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "I will take your Majesty to the county magistrate's office first."

Within the county government office, in addition to the county magistrate's office, there are also the county government office, the county chief office, and the county official office, which are where other officials work.

The county magistrate, Zheng County Lieutenant, took a sip of tea and said: "This time Zhong Mingli will replace all of you and me. If nothing is found, we can jointly impeach him as the county magistrate for acting arbitrarily and excluding Alien, when the time comes, if your Excellency asks the people above to exert some force, he, the county magistrate, may have to move to another place before his butt gets hot."

County Lieutenant Zhao had a calm expression and said calmly: "Although I don't know what kind of luck he had, a county magistrate from another state could be promoted several levels in a row and sit in the position of Ping An County Magistrate, but this position is not so easy to sit in. , even Magistrate Chang, who has a strong background, was defeated. He has no background in Beijing, how can he stand up? Could it be that he relies on his son-in-law who is in the Hanlin Academy? "

Tangning walked into the county magistrate's office and saw Magistrate Zhao and Lieutenant Zheng playing chess leisurely, just as the yamen servant reported.

He walked into the hall, looked at the two of them, and said unexpectedly: "The county government is so busy, two adults actually have the time to play chess?"

Zhao Xiancheng knew him, so he stood up and said calmly: "Tang Hanlin is not in the Hanlin Academy, why did he come to our county government?"

Although Tang Ning is the number one scholar, he is the chief official in this county's government office, and the Hanlin Academy's hand cannot reach this far.

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Master Zhao, do you mean that I am meddling in other people's business?"

Zhao Xiancheng shook his head and said, "If Tang Hanlin thinks so, I can't do anything about it."

Chen Huang was originally in a good mood. Everyone from the Ping An County Yamen to the county magistrate and down to the servants was not slacking off, but he did not expect that there was such a big difference between the former Yamen and the county magistrate. The county magistrate did everything himself. I can't spare any time, but this county magistrate still has the heart to play chess and drink tea?

He stepped forward and asked in a deep voice: "Do you get the imperial salary just because you come to the county government office to drink tea and play chess?"

Lieutenant Zheng stood up, pointed at him, and asked: "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"

Wei Jian took a step forward and said angrily: "How presumptuous!"

Zheng County Lieutenant stood up and said: "You are so arrogant, you are talking about men and women, this is the county magistrate's office, who let you in!"

Tang Jing quietly stepped aside. He was originally thinking about how to reveal Zhao Xian Cheng's bribery and favoritism without leaving any trace. Now it seems that even this step has been omitted.

Chen Huang looked at the two of them and his expression gradually darkened.

There are many lazy officials in major county governments. When he is in a good mood, he will at least give a few verbal reprimands.

As for the Ping An County Government, the county magistrate is so busy that he has no time to spare. The county magistrate is not only interested in playing chess, but he is also so arrogant and domineering. As the emperor, how can he not know the fishiness of this?

He looked back at Ling Yun and said, "Take them both down!"
