As for the commander Zhao Fengchun, he had already left Fan County with 2,000 people yesterday morning and returned to Shouzhang County to continue escorting grain.

The laborers who participated in the disturbance, under the intimidation of the swords and guns of the 1,000 guards, obediently squatted in place and did not dare to move.

Xiao Huai, as a messenger of the imperial court, was tied up and threatened by refugees today, losing face, and Zou Zhubo was forced to die, so he was angry in his chest, but he still fulfilled Xu Jin's promise and did not hold these refugees accountable. However, the face of the imperial court could not be ignored, so all the laborers who participated in the disturbance were deducted from their remuneration as punishment, while the laborers who did not participate in the disturbance were truthfully distributed food.

After Xiao Huai dealt with the troublesome laborers, he angrily led people back to the city and went straight to the granary in the county.

When Xu Jin and others appeared on the streets of Fan County, the entire small county town was boiling, and the news that Lord Qincha had arrested the county order and released it spread far and wide, and the people in the city all applauded and ran to see the excitement, and the streets were crowded with people on both sides.

"Hey, I heard that Lord Qincha is now going to inspect the granary, there is a good show, there is a grain business in the city, who doesn't know the surname Gou steals and sells official grain."

"God has eyes, I finally caught and let go of this Guancang Shuo mouse!"

The people on both sides of the street were talking excitedly and loudly, seeing the magistrate who was being escorted by the Jinyi guard, and some people even took out rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and threw them at him, which shows that this guy is not usually very popular.

Zhao Quan mingled with the onlookers, his expression was extremely gloomy, one hand clamped down like an eagle's claw on the thin monkey Qiu Fu who wanted to pounce out, and the mixed-race girl Xue Bingxin pressed Qiu Fu's other shoulder.

"Let go, I want to save the second child!" Qiu Fu's expression was furious, and a beastly roar came out of his throat.

Zhao Quan said in a calm voice: "Thin monkey, if you rush out now, not only will you not be able to save people, but in the end, you will even be able to take yourself, and it will also expose all of us." ”

Qiu Fu's emotions calmed down a little when he heard this, and he stared anxiously at the injured laborer who was being carried on a stretcher by the Jinyi guard.

Xue Bingxin patted Qiu Fu's shoulder and whispered, "Senior Brother Qiu, don't worry, we will find a way to rescue Qiu Er." ”

Qiu Fu reluctantly let go of his clenched fists, saying that the "thorn in the head" who was shattered by Xu Jin was Qiu Fu's own brother, named Qiu Gui, who was also an official disciple of the White Lotus Sect, but the time of joining the sect was a few years later than that of Qiu Fu.

"Do you know what happened to those guys who were caught by the brocade guards?"

"I don't know, I heard that the workers on the embankment made trouble today, these are probably the troublemakers who were arrested!"

"Tsk, these guys are really cowardly, they dare to make trouble knowing that Qin Cha is present, but when it comes to Jinyiwei's hands, they have to shed their skin if they don't die."

Several people nearby were talking in a low voice, and suddenly a person who knew something inside interjected: "It is said that these guys took the lead in making trouble and forced Zou Zhubo to die by disembowelment, and now he deserves to be arrested by Jinyiwei, hey, the guy on the stretcher is the most unlucky, and he dared to resist when he was caught by Jinyiwei, ah, as a result, the youngest Xu Qin almost exploded, and lost half his life on the spot." ”

Qiu Fu grabbed the common man by the collar with his hand, and asked in a fierce voice: "Was the surname Xu Na sour beating?" ”

The man was stunned and said, "You...... What do you want? ”

Zhao Quan's complexion changed slightly, and he hurriedly poked Qiu Fu's waist, and the latter suddenly half of his body was numb, Zhao Quan took the opportunity to put the ordinary man down, and said with a smile: "This old brother, I'm sorry, my companion is drunk and drunk, this is twenty yuan, and I am apologizing to my brother for my companion." ”

The common man took the copper coin and ran away without looking back, as for whether the fierce thin man was drunk or not, he didn't dare to investigate, the guys with such big hands are all practitioners, these people in the rivers and lakes are not easy to mess with!

Zhao Quan glared at Qiu Fu coldly, and dragged him off the street without saying anything, so as not to be killed by this impulsive guy. Xue Bingxin hesitated, and followed the flow of people in the direction of the granary, Zhao Quan glanced back at Xue Bingxin's back, his sharp eyebrows furrowed, but he didn't stop it, Senior Sister Xue was calm and careful, and her martial arts were not weaker than herself, so he wasn't too worried.

Fan County's Chang Ping is in the county office, at this time the granary is already full of onlookers, Xiao Huai obviously intends to inspect the warehouse in full view, so he did not let people drive away the onlookers.

Soon, dozens of bales of grain in the warehouse were moved out, and Jin Yiwei swung his knife to cut open the sacks, and the sediment inside was left out, and dozens of bales of grain were all sand and stones, which was shocking.

The people watching around shouted in amazement, scolded one after another, and shouted for the execution of the official cangshuo rat. Xiao Huai's face was pale, these local officials and thieves had the audacity to engage in deception under the nose of Qin Cha.

The evidence was conclusive, and Gou Zhixian fell to his knees as soon as his feet were weak. The county Cheng Lai read the scriptures and knelt down tremblingly, looking like a mourning filial piety, and secretly scolded the lord Bo Zou Qian in his heart, this damn tuberculosis ghost, obviously there is a new shipment of good grain, why send the bad grain to the laborers, isn't this relying on harm? This incident could have been covered up smoothly!

In fact, Zou Qian did not deliberately distribute the spoiled grain to the laborers, although he himself was honest (he was good alone), but he adhered to the Confucian golden mean, and turned a blind eye to the theft and sale of official grain by Gou Zhixian and others, and did not participate in it or report it. It is precisely because of this that Gou Zhixian tolerated him to continue to sit in the position of the main body.

The spoiled grain was actually distributed to the laborers by the officials under Zou Zhubo's own initiative, thinking that these mud-legged people would not dare to do anything, but who knew that something had happened. This is probably called self-destruction if you do too much injustice!

Eunuch Huang Jin looked at the mud and sand all over the ground, his face was red and white, the warehouse was personally inspected by him, if this happened today, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face!

"Bastard, you dare to deceive our family!" Huang Jin rushed forward and kicked Lai Xiancheng in the face, and the latter fell to the ground screaming on the spot, his lips burst, and his mouth was full of blood.

Despite this, Huang Jin was still angry, and continued to step on Lai Xiancheng's head and face until Xu Jin stepped forward to pull him away.

"Master Xu, our family is so angry, we let this bastard use these dirty tricks to deceive him, and our family's face is lost to grandma's house." Huang Jin scolded angrily, but his heart was a little empty.

Huang Jin did inspect the warehouse that day, and let people pass the scales, but he only stayed for half an hour before leaving with Lai Xiancheng, found a restaurant to drink, and collected ten taels of gold during the banquet.

After the eunuch was castrated, he had no interest in that aspect, and the thoughts of this life were money and power, so most eunuchs liked yellow and white things, and Huang Jin was naturally no exception, but this kid had just started from the dragon, and he was not bold and greedy, and he did not refuse a small amount of gold and silver.

Xiao Huai said in a deep voice: "Gonggong Huang, this official ordered you to inspect the granary, and you dealt with it in a hurry, and now that this incident has happened, this official will definitely report truthfully after returning to the court, and a dereliction of duty cannot be escaped." ”

Huang Jin suddenly looked at Xu Jin pitifully like an eggplant.

Lao Xiao is angry now, Xu Jin naturally won't touch his head at this time, just as he didn't see it, he turned his head to the other side casually, and suddenly saw a familiar face among the onlookers, it was the mixed-race girl Xue Bingxin.

When Xue Bingxin saw Xu Jin coming, he immediately turned around and disappeared into the crowd, Xu Jin frowned imperceptibly, just now he sensitively caught a hostile look from the other party's eyes.

Xu Jin is a little inexplicable, he has only met twice with this woman, but there is nothing to offend her, this woman also helped me in the broken temple.

Xiao Huai acted vigorously and resolutely, and immediately tried the case in the county Yasheng Hall, and there were all human and material evidence, and there was no room for Gou Zhi County and Lai County to deny it.

Soon, the facts of the case became clear, and Gou Zhixian and Lai Xiancheng took the initiative to confess to stealing and selling 6,000 stone of official grain, making a profit of nearly 7,000 taels. Immediately afterwards, many people at the scene came out to report other crimes in Gou Zhi County, such as encroaching on people's land, taking advantage of birthday banquets to obtain money, and some relatives bullying land and bullying women, forcing good people to become prostitutes, etc......

Xiao Huai ordered on the spot to deprive Gou Zhixian and Lai Xiancheng of their fame, and to take them into custody, and wait for the approval of the Criminal Department to behead them. Jinyiwei immediately dispatched and went to the house to raid the house, which is what they are best at!

After dealing with the first and second leaders of Fan County, followed by the small officials who were in the same stream below, the result was that in the end, the entire county government was almost cleaned, and the head of the team was arrested, and the officials caught nearly seventy percent, so to speak, the entire yamen was rotten to the bones, and it was simply a corruption in the way of collapse.
