In this ancient time, the concept of respect and inferiority was extremely strict, and even if it was a nephew, it could not be so presumptuous. Obviously, Liu Weimin took it for granted.

He didn't take such a detail to heart, and began to cry to Tao Gao: "Lord Tao! You have to call the shots for your subordinates this time! There is a group of extremely powerful bandits of unknown origin in our county, and they are wantonly doing things in our county. They not only beat up the officials in our county office, but also wounded and ran away the officers and men stationed there who went to maintain law and order. Tao Zhifu, you go and ask the Xu County Guard to send troops, immediately exterminate this group of young people, and return me to the people of the hopeless county to have a bright future! ”

After listening to Liu Weimin's words, Tao Gao did not speak, but only glanced at Luo Yunxiao slightly. The implication is that it's up to you to decide! Who made you our superior?

Luo Yunxiao showed a free and detached expression at this moment, and said very casually: "Oh! You are the Liu County Commander of Hopeless County, right? I heard that Liu County's 50th birthday is approaching, I don't know how you plan to arrange your birthday? ”

Liu Weimin looked at Luo Yunxiao and was not sure what his identity was, so he asked politely, "Excuse me, ...... Your Excellency?" ”

Before he finished asking, Tao Gao was about to announce the correct answer, but Nangong Yimeng, who was sitting next to him, gave him a vicious look, which immediately frightened him into a thrill, and swallowed the answer he wanted to say back into his stomach.

Luo Yunxiao said unhurriedly: "Liu County Order, don't ask if you shouldn't ask." Leave me alone for now, and answer the question I just asked you! As for who I am, when you should know, you will know. ”

Liu Weimin is also a very scheming person, he can see at a glance that Luo Yunxiao has a temperament that makes him quite depressed and irresistible; Seeing the old man sitting next to the prefect again, he actually cast a vicious look at the prefect, not only did Tao Gao not attack, but even lowered his head. It can be seen that this young man's background is not small!

So he pretended to be very honest and said: "This son, to tell you the truth, as an official of the imperial court, we must first be self-denying, honest and self-disciplined, high-spirited, and maintain good conduct." For personal matters, it is better to keep it simple. Therefore, the official will not go out of his way, as long as he is casual. These words are really selfless and high-sounding! If you don't know who he is, you have to take him as a model among officials and a leader among people.

Luo Yunxiao sneered and said: "It seems that Lord Liu is really a person as his name suggests, but a good official who is dedicated to the people and shares weal and woe with the people!" ”

Liu Weimin said triumphantly: "Yes, yes, this is the duty of an official, and it is also the wish of the people in this life!" ”

Luo Yunxiao listened to his words, just like eating a lot of flies, mosquitoes, bed bugs, fleas and other evil insects, he had a feeling of wanting to vomit. This guy surnamed Liu is really disgusting. While being a corrupt official, he is still flaunting his holiness, what is the difference between those strange and extremely huge greed in the future time and space, it seems that this is also a kind of inheritance! Its vitality is too strong.

So, Luo Yunxiao couldn't hold back any longer, and he suddenly said in a cold voice: "Liu Weimin, your so-called honesty and self-discipline, and maintaining discipline is to apportionment 12 taels of silver to every family in Hopeless County?" Is it to force thousands or even thousands of taels of silver from those big families? Is it to ask for 50 taels of congratulatory money from all the strangers who come and go to the hopeless county? Hum! Is this what you call your duty, your desire, your way of being an official? ”

For Luo Yunxiao's aggressive questioning, Liu Weimin was already stunned. What the hell is going on? How did he know about himself? And the door is clear, this is too bizarre! But in order not to fall into his own momentum, he said stiffly: "This son, please don't talk about hearsay, make something out of nothing!" All of these phenomena you mentioned are absurd and nonexistent, and there is absolutely no such thing as what you said in our Hopeless County. ”

Luo Yunxiao didn't pay attention to him, just made a gesture to the door, and in a few moments, more than 10 people came in from outside. Among them, two people, Liu Weimin, know each other. One is his deputy, the county Chenglu Shilian, and the other is the richest man in their county, Bian Zhixiong, the big treasurer of Daxing Grain Bank. Hey? How did they get here? For such a sudden change, Liu Weimin was extremely worried for a while.

How did Cheng Lu Shilian and the richest man Bian Zhixiong come to Lujiang Mansion? This is naturally all the credit of Ye Yunjing. He inquired that although the county order and the county were both greedy, one was a small fight, and the other was loud and high-profile!

To say that this Lu Shilian naturally likes silver very much, but he accepts it whenever he sees it, and he will not be so greedy that he has no bottom line. In his mind, what he likes even more is the yellow flower girl who is very smart. And the concept of silver is that as long as it is enough, so once it reaches a certain amount, he will not hesitate to stop it. It's different for the yellow flower girl, even if you don't eat or drink, you have to find a way to hold the beauty!

On the contrary, it was Liu Weimin, Liu Xiangmin, and the two brothers, who asked for the silver as much as possible, and there was no time to stop it, which caused them to be out of control as soon as they started. In terms of the concept of how to achieve moderation, the prefectural order is completely different from the prefectural practice.

After learning about the respective situations of the chief and deputy of Hopeless County, Ye Yunjing felt that he could make a fuss about this. Although both embezzlement and greed are greedy, they have completely different natures.

Absolutely! Lust is not a good phenomenon either, but it is only a matter of morality. There is a way, 9 out of 10 men are sexual, and 1 is waiting. Sex is the nature of men, and there is no need to go to the upper line.

The nature of greedy money, especially public money, is very different, this is a matter of human nature, and it is a touchstone for the benefit of the people for a single term of office. Therefore, it is necessary to resolutely crack down on this issue of principle.

So Ye Yunjing immediately took Hua Qianchang and Xu Jiayun to the county government and went directly to visit the county Cheng Lu Shilian.

After some moral persuasion that knew the reason and moved with emotion, and told him that he was a special envoy sent by the imperial court, as long as he could make a correct judgment and cooperate well, he could be not guilty of what he had done in the past, and also promised to let him be the county magistrate of this county after overthrowing Liu Weimin, which made Lu Shilian willing to come to Lujiang Mansion as a witness.

In addition, more than 10 people, including the richest man Bian Zhang, are all county residents of Wuwang County, and all of them are here to testify this time.

As soon as Liu Weimin saw these people, his heart began to tremble, and he suddenly felt that his good life was coming to an end, and it was very likely that he would be buried in this life. Now he can only bet the entire treasure on the prefect Tao Gao.

For the Tao prefect, in normal times, he also respects him from time to time, and at this time, he should naturally excuse himself. Because he had already seen that this young man must be an official sent down from above to make a secret visit, otherwise how could he sit on the throne?

He said to Tao Gao with a sad face: "Master Tao, I have been an official for nearly 24 years, and I have always been working hard and doing things diligently. Everyone will do a few foolish things in their lives. I hope that Lord Tao will look at the usual behavior of the lower officials, and quickly ask for a favor for the lower officials, right? ”

Tao Gao just raised his head and glanced at Luo Yunxiao again, but he still didn't speak, and then continued to lower his head, carefully looking at his hands, as if he was silently looking at his eldest aunt and second aunt.

Liu Weimin saw that Tao Gao didn't pay attention to him, and he was really a little anxious now, so he raised his voice and said: "Most of the silver I finally looted has been given to you officials. But at such a critical moment, you refused to even pull me. You don't want to think about it, once I am unlucky, which of you can have a good life? This must be a messenger sent by the imperial court, and the lower officials want to make up for their mistakes, and the lower officials have a lot of evidence in their hands that others have done illegal things. ”

Tao Gao raised his head again all of a sudden, and this time he spoke: "Liu County Order, you'd better be cautious when you speak, don't say anything when you think of something, in that case, then none of us will have a good life in the future." Governor Luo, but then again, in today's world, none of us who have been officials will not be greedy for some money, because this thing is what those high-ranking officials like! In order to have room for upward movement, everyone will try their best to get some oil, water and benefits, so that there will be the cost of upward promotion. This is a fairly reasonable thing to do. Governor Luo thinks what the lower official said is reasonable? ”

Luo Yunxiao sneered: "Among these words you said, only one sentence may still have some truth. That is, some of the so-called Shangguan like yellow and white things. Not only do the officials like it, but in this world, I'm afraid there is no one who doesn't like gold and silver. I like it very much. But have you ever heard such a saying? It is said that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way. And you wantonly exploit the common people, greedy for the money allocated by the court for the benefit of the people, and you are still so calm and so peaceful, don't you feel a little guilty? Don't you feel yourself blushing? By doing so, you have not only ruined yourself, but also ruined the image of the court in the eyes of the people, which can really be described as harming others and yourself! ”
