The word calculation has two meanings, and the derogatory meaning is to design and plot against others to the detriment of the interests of others in order to achieve one's own goals; Praise has the meaning of strategizing and winning thousands of miles away. As for which one applies, success or failure is a matter of hero. Three days later, the promotion of the court to ask the case was the key, the county government was busy, Jiang Anyi and Zhang Keji were not idle, this disgraceful discussion was carried out until the second watch, and then they dispersed. Night, return to silence.

The next day, Shi and Huang Dongquan took their servants out to inquire about the news, to see if the people of the official notice knew about the trade of medicinal herbs, and looked for the people who were killed by the Xu Mansion to complain. In the evening, Shi and others came back one after another to give feedback to Jiang Anyi and Zhang Keji.

Wang Xiancheng asked people to post the notice, and the county lieutenant of Qin asked the officials to go to the countryside to publicize it, and then the county magistrate, the master bookkeeper, and the county lieutenant had nothing to do with themselves, and they were ready to watch the excitement, and the old and new county orders were in full swing to prepare for the ascension to the hall three days later.

Jiang Anyi's eyes basically returned to normal the next day, remembering the few wooden boxes that Xu Mingyuan transported from the back door of the county government that night, but he didn't see them when he searched them, and Jiang Anyi came to explore the treasure in his busy time. Changchunguan still remembers vividly, no windfall is not made, Jiang Anyi searched inside and out, and really found the secret room in the room where Xu Mingyuan lived, uncovered the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, there was a small door behind, inside the small door was a secret room, there were a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings on the wooden shelf, and a few good swords.

There are wooden boxes stacked in the corner, and the eight boxes of Yan County's order are among them. When the box was opened, the white was silver, the yellow was gold, and the colorful was silk, and Jiang Anyi estimated that the property in the more than 20 boxes alone was no less than 200,000 taels. No one has too much money, Jiang Anyi covered up the secret, took the sword and gave it to the stone, the stone has been learning art with him for a few years, and his kung fu has improved, this time he came to Fuluo County with himself, he took the initiative to do things, and he wanted to praise and encourage.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and on the evening before the ascension, Jiang Anyi ordered a few tables of banquets, and everyone ate and talked in the courtyard. Huang Dongquan has experienced things, he is much more stable, he has an orderly speech, wipes the oil and water on his mouth with his sleeve, and says: "Cousin, in the past few days, I have run to three townships, and the stone has also run to three townships, plus others, and the eleven townships in Fuluo County have been all run. ”

"Yes, Dongquan, you have worked hard, I will toast you."

Huang Dongquan was not afraid of his parents but afraid of his cousin, seeing Jiang Anyi thanking himself, his bones were three points lighter, he took a cup and drank it all, and boasted: "Cousin, when I go to a place, I will tell the local people that the new county lord has driven away the bully Xu Mingyuan, and from now on the medicinal materials can be bought and sold spontaneously, and if anyone has grievances, they can appeal to the lobby in three days." ”

"What do the people say?" Jiang Anyi asked.

Huang Dongquan said hesitantly: "Those ordinary people said yes, and then they dispersed." ”

Jiang Anyi shook his head slightly, and said with a stone: "In the three places I visited, there were already pharmacists buying medicinal materials, and it turned out that the green skin in the village to see the goods also ran away, and everyone said that Gongzi was a good official." ”

The other servants also recounted what they had seen and heard, and Zhang Keji asked, "Have you ever seen the government officials preach proclamations in the village?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, and Shi thought for a while and said, "I saw two officials sitting in the village restaurant, drinking, as if they were talking to the villagers. ”

The seats are all acquaintances, Zhang Keji took off his mask, and everyone has seen it more often, so he naturally gets used to it. Zhang Keji muttered: "My lord, I am afraid that there will be an open and secret battle in the hall tomorrow, Xu Mingyuan can run rampant for many years, and it is not unrelated to the collusion with the officials and officials in the county, I heard that the county lieutenant of Qin wanted to compete with Xu Mingyuan when he first came, but he must have lost, and now he is accompanied by wine every day." This time, the adults drove Xu Mingyuan away, but they might as well communicate with Qin County Lieutenant more, and as for Wang Xiancheng and Liu Zhushu, they might as well spend more time to understand. ”

Nothing was said all night. Fuluo County announced on the third and seventh that Jiang Anyi rode from Xufu to the county office, and saw many people along the way, and the front of the county government was even more crowded, and the newly arrived county order was promoted to the court for the first time to ask about the case, and everyone was not allowed to come to see the excitement, and even some traders closed the shop to see the excitement.

After greeting each other, Jiang An Yisheng sat under the plaque of "Mirror Hanging", and set up seats on both sides, so that Yan Kaichen, Wang Xiancheng, Liu Zhubo and Qin County Lieutenant could sit down.

As soon as he knocked on the startling wood, the officials on both sides knocked on the ground with water and fire sticks in their hands, and the sound of "mighty" sounded. Jiang Anyi's expression was in a trance, this feeling was different from sitting alone in the official hall of the Ministry of Rites, they all said that the county order was a hundred miles of marquis, and the feeling of power in hand was intoxicating.

"Ascend to the hall", the door of the yamen opened, the crowd poured in, standing under the platform in front of the lobby to watch the excitement, Jiang Anyi saw a black girl outside the door in the lobby, someone looked inside, and the officials maintained order.

A servant shouted in front of the lobby: "The lord is promoted, and there are wronged people who come to the court." He shouted several times, but no one came to the court.

Jiang Anyi was stunned for a moment, what was going on, he ascended to the court with great fanfare, but no one complained. Glancing down the hall, he saw that Yan Kaichen and the others were like bodhisattvas, sitting silent, the officials on both sides showed a sarcastic smile, and the little officials in the corner looked at themselves proudly and laughed.

I don't know where the problem is, Jiang Anyi turned his head slightly and signaled to the stone on the back side, the stone was clever and quietly slipped out of the lobby from behind. There was silence in the lobby, everyone was waiting to see the good show of Jiang County's order, Jiang Anyi's eyes rolled, knowing that he couldn't wait, so he said: "Today's promotion, this county will try Xu Mingyuan's case of bullying and dominating the market, and the fish and meat township." Xu Mingyuan escaped, but many of his subordinates were captured and brought to court. ”

There was a commotion in the crowd, and in the midst of the heated discussions, the official mentioned Xu Mingyuan's subordinates from the prison, and there were more than a dozen women, and the hall was full of kneeling people. Jiang Anyi said coldly: "Xu Mingyuan has done a lot of evil, you and others are helping his subordinates to abuse, and the crime is unforgivable." Today, this county will let you make meritorious service to atone for your sins, who can expose Xu Mingyuan's sins, and he will be punished lightly. ”

These people have already been greeted by the officials, they can't admit their guilt, and they will find a way to get them out, Jiang Anyi's question was expected, and everyone shouted injustice, only saying that they were the servants hired by Xu Mingyuan, and they were confused for a while before obeying the lord's order to besiege the lord, and ask the lord to forgive him.

Yan Kaichen squinted at Jiang Anyi, Jiang Anyi's face turned blue with anger, and he was secretly proud in his heart, even if you are the champion of Sanyuan and the first, you are not played by a group of small people. Qin County Lieutenant sighed secretly in his heart, this Lord Jiang was still too tender, so he didn't go to find him.

Jiang Anyi said with a smile: "You still dare to shout injustice, but you are hard-mouthed. Come and bring Zhang Putian. ”

The sound of shackles, Zhang Putian moved step by step to the court, his assassination of the county order is a capital crime, so he is on the torture instrument. Jiang An ordered the torture equipment to be removed and asked, "Zhang Putian, are you guilty?" ”

"Adult, villain is wronged." Zhang Putian knew that he couldn't escape, so he simply relied on it to the end, and argued: "That day, the villain got a report, saying that someone had committed a murder in Xufu, and when the villain arrived, he saw casualties in one place, and the villain was anxious for his life, so he ordered archery." ”

"This official has already shown his body, why do you still shoot arrows, Xu Mingyuan promised you five thousand taels of silver, and then bought your life?" Jiang Anyi said angrily.

Although today's situation is unexpected, Jiang Anyi is not unprepared, he discussed with Zhang Keji, to start with Zhang Putian, in the past few days, he has collected a large list of bad things about Zhang Putian doing evil, oppressing the people, and disregarding people's lives, and they have been picked up one by one in the court.

Zhang Putian is a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and he knows that he can't be good, so he simply denies it, and he has been beaten several times, but the county order can't find real evidence, and he may be able to escape death.

Seeing Zhang Putian bow his head and be silent, Jiang Anyi sneered: "Lin Qiang, Ma Shaogong, Chen Dongqiang, Huang Mingfa." ”

The four of them were all in the class, and when they heard the county order call their names, they hurriedly stood up and agreed, Jiang Anyi said: "The four of you accompanied Zhang Putian to shoot the official with an arrow that day, and you can be guilty." The four of them had bitter faces, and Chen Dongqiang responded: "My lord, you have forgiven us that day." ”

"Yes, this official did spare you, but it doesn't mean that you are not guilty." Jiang Anyi pointed at Zhang Putian with his hand and said, "I heard that this thief has bullied you a lot on weekdays, and today I will give you a chance to take revenge, pull Zhang Putian down, and give me a heavy beating of forty boards." ”

Adults have lives, don't dare to disobey, Lin Qiang and others came over to set up Zhang Putian, Huang Mingfa was timid, and muttered softly: "Zhang Tou, we are also forced to do it, don't be surprised." ”

Zhang Putian glared at a few people viciously, but did not make a sound. Jiang Anyi said again: "Put Zhang Putian on the platform outside the lobby to execute him, so that the people of Fuluo will be angry." ”

Sure enough, when the crowd watching the excitement saw Zhang Putian being beaten, they didn't dare to applaud because of his obscenity, but they all showed joy. The beating is particular, Lin Qiang and others "split and crack" a beating, it seems that Zhang Putian's buttocks are blurred with flesh and blood, but the injury is not serious.

Lin Qiang and others paid the order, Jiang Anyi was expressionless, and named four more people, and continued to forty boards. After three rounds in a row, one hundred and twenty boards went down, even if he beat lightly, Zhang Putian was a little unbearable. He Qiangren, a servant in the class who was good friends with Zhang Putian, came forward to intercede: "My lord, this has already beaten one hundred and twenty boards, and if you beat it again, you will be killed, I hope your lord will raise his noble hand and spare his life." ”

Jiang Anyi said with a smile: "He Qiangren, when Zhang Putian does bad things, you have a share, and you will fight these forty boards." ”

He Qiangren's face changed, and he said: "My lord, you are difficult for a strong man, the villain will not be a servant, everyone should not do it, this dog official obviously wants Zhang Putian's life." He dealt with Zhang Putian today, and he will deal with us another day, we should not be so bad, we will be angry with this. ”

Seeing that some of the officials had lost their water and fire sticks, it seemed that they were going to respond to He Qiangren's call, Jiang Anyi snorted coldly: "Roar the court, incite dissatisfaction, and take He Qiangren with me." Whoever wants to obey He Qiangren will be punished together. ”

There were already twelve people who had beaten Zhang Putian just now, and they were regarded as offending him, and they were obeying the orders of the new county order, and now some people want to disobey them, that is, they are against them, Lin Qiang and others immediately stepped forward to take He Qiangren down, and the others saw that the situation was not good, and remembered that the people in Xufu were lying on the ground that day, and their group of people was not enough for the county lord to draw a row, shiver, and quickly return to the team.

Jiang Anyi calmly pointed out the names of the four people, and everyone understood that Jiang County's order was to Zhang Putian's life, and this scholar was ruthless enough. Zhang Putian knew that something was wrong, and scolded, Jiang Anyi stood up, came to the outside of the lobby, looked at Zhang Putian and said: "Heaven is evil, you can still do it, people are evil, you can't live, give me a beating." ”
