Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Wu Sheng tucked the silver notes into his chest, and nervously followed the yamen runner all the way to the Taoyuan County Yamen.

At this time, many yamen runners stood upright on both sides of the hall.

Seeing this, Wu Sheng panicked even more... Were they going to interrogate him? Did they need such a big show?

Fang Zheng Yi couldn't help but find his appearance amusing. In the end, Emperor Jing himself had found Taoyuan County, and Wu Sheng was just unlucky.

However, he even had the guts to move to Taoyuan County, he was a talent!

Then, Fang Zheng Yi vigorously slammed the gavel, and then smiled: "Master Wu... we haven't seen each other for a long time, this official is very happy to see you."

Wu Sheng shuddered all over when he saw Fang Zheng Yi's smiling face.

It was that smile... that devil... who forced him to say those lewd and shameful words in front of the phonograph!

Wu Sheng did not answer, and the bad things that had happened in the past began to churn in his heart.

Out of shame and anger, Wu Sheng knelt down in the hall with a thud, and shouted: "The commoner Wu Sheng, kowtows to Master Fang!"

This operation stunned Fang Zheng Yi: "Commoner? You, Wu Sheng, were this official's superior before, why do you call yourself a commoner?"

Wu Sheng did not raise his head: "His Majesty has demoted the commoner, now I am just a commoner, the past is like a floating cloud, Wu Sheng... has long forgotten."

Wu Sheng was so honest, which was somewhat beyond Fang Zheng Yi's expectations.

He had originally planned to listen to his sophistry and then take advantage of him... but now it was not easy to do it.

This grandson has become cunning!

"Wu Sheng... this official has repeatedly ordered you not to reveal Taoyuan County, but this official does not blame you, after all, His Majesty has discerning eyes, it is impossible to hide it. This official now only wants to ask you, what did you say to His Majesty?"

Wu Sheng answered honestly one by one.

Fang Zheng Yi thought for a long time but could not find fault.

However, when he thought that this guy was taking his money to eat and drink for free in Taoyuan County, he felt a little unhappy, and then slowly said: "Okay, this official will not embarrass you, since you have settled in Taoyuan County, then live in peace."

Hearing this, Wu Sheng's hanging heart fell, and at the same time, he was overjoyed, it seemed that his money was still saved.

"We have dealt with each other several times, you used to inspect various counties... I'm afraid you have made a lot of money, right? This official, as the Junior Tutor of the Zhan Shi Fu, is responsible for teaching the Crown Prince, and cannot tolerate such filth in the world! You truthfully..."

"Reporting to the master, all the illegal gains I have made as an official over the years are all here, a total of seven thousand six hundred taels! There are also five hundred taels here that the master gave to me, please investigate!"

Before Fang Zheng Yi could finish speaking, Wu Sheng took out the thick stack of silver notes from his arms and placed them neatly on the ground.

He couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Damn it, I really couldn't save it! Fang Zheng Yi, don't I know what kind of person you are? A character who plucks feathers from a passing goose!"

"............"

Fang Zheng Yi awkwardly touched his nose, the dog thing had learned to answer first!

Then he waved his hand, and the yamen runner presented the silver notes.

Fang Zheng Yi picked up a five-hundred-tael note and threw it back: "This money is the settlement fee this official gave you, don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, yes, yes, I took the wrong one..." Wu Sheng had a cheap smile on his face, looking like he had seen through you a long time ago.

Fang Zheng Yi squinted his eyes and smiled: "What are you doing for a living now?"

With the crisis resolved, Wu Sheng regained his confidence and smiled: "Thank you for your concern, Master Fang. I am just living a poor life, drinking and writing poetry every day, that's all."

Fang Zheng Yi shook his head: "No... this county does not support idlers. You used to be this official's superior, wouldn't such talent be wasted? Moreover, this little money of yours is not enough to support a large family. This official will help you find a job, go to the county yamen prison to help interrogate prisoners."

Wu Sheng's heart was raised again, and he said in a panic: "Master, I... I don't know how?"

"It's nothing, just singing, it's very simple!"

"Aba Aba! Aba! Aba!"

As soon as Fang Zheng Yi finished speaking, a burst of Aba Aba sounds came from the side, and everyone turned their eyes to look at the same time.

Between them, an honest middle-aged man was shouting excitedly.

Fang Zheng Yi frowned and pointed at the man: "Why haven't I seen this person in the county yamen before? Why did you find a mute to be on duty?"

Lu Fa, who was not far from him, quickly came out and said: "Master! He is the owner of the milk tea shop, Old Liu!"

"His voice was ruined by singing, and he hasn't recovered yet!"

Wu Sheng shuddered all over when he looked at Old Liu, and then looked at Fang Zheng Yi in shock and anger.

Damn it, this Fang Zheng Yi still doesn't want to let me go... Singing can turn you into a mute!

"Oh, since he can't speak anymore, how can the milk tea shop still open?"

"It closed down a long time ago, so the county arranged a position for him as compensation."

Fang Zheng Yi cast a sympathetic look at Old Liu and sighed: "Old Liu, you have worked hard. In the future, this kind of secret weapon cannot be used easily!"

"Aba! Aba Aba!"

"What is he saying?"

Lu Fa said: "He said he is very happy to be appreciated by the master. Just now he also said that if Wu Sheng doesn't know how to sing, he can teach him."

Hiss~! Fang Zheng Yi's gaze turned urgently to Lu Fa.

Such a language genius has not been discovered by himself... This is really a dereliction of duty....

Fang Zheng Yi stared at Lu Fa: "Can you understand what he is saying?"

Lu Fa touched his head and smiled shyly: "I can probably understand... Master, you don't know, I can guess the general meaning by listening to the voice and looking at the eyes. I can also understand a little of the calls of cats and dogs that I see on weekdays."

"This is what we have learned since childhood!"

"Is this true?"

"It's true! Last month, the county's Liu Laohan ruined his family's sheep, and I handled this case."

Fang Zheng Yi took a deep breath, this was a special ability! Such a talent must be taken away!

Those foreign merchants from overseas accidentally came to Jiangling Port, and the languages they speak are also incomprehensible. Wouldn't it be much easier to handle things if there were talents like Lu Fa?

Then he thought that he had learned English for more than ten years, and the most familiar thing he remembered was abandon, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

There really are people who are born with foreign languages... and it's still cross-species.

"Lu Fa, you are a talent! Are you willing to go to Beijing with this official? I have important things for you to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the yamen runners in the county yamen cast envious glances at Lu Fa.

Lu Fa was overjoyed and knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times: "Thank you, master! I am willing, I am willing!"

"Okay! Since that's the case, you can come directly after this official sets off in a few days. What kind of people are there in your family, this official can help you settle them."

Lu Fa's face turned slightly red, and he murmured: "Thank you, master, but my parents have already passed away, and I have no children these years, so there is only one wife in the family."

"It's okay for me to go with the master alone, I don't want my wife...."

"I know, take your wife with you."

".............."

Wu Sheng knelt on the ground and said timidly: "Master... um, can I not go..."

"What do you think?"

Wu Sheng伏 was lying on the ground, sweating profusely, and when he thought of singing in the dark prison, he felt like his heart was dead.

He really couldn't escape Fang Zheng Yi's clutches.

Wait! Prison?

Hiss~ It seems that no one has written about such a subject before.......
