Chapter 1089 Conspiracy behind the scenes
On the first day, the officials of the Jingnan County Government got off work in an atmosphere of tacit understanding, and the work results were infinitely equal to zero.
Work hard at work, and play assault after get off work.
As soon as the yamen was released, all the officials were very active and quick. It didn't work for a minute, and the whole yamen was empty.
The Jingnan County Government Office was empty, but the Hefeng Building not far from the County Government Office was quickly overcrowded. Zhang Changru, the county magistrate, Yao Wenyuan, the head secretary, the sixth house servant of the county government, and even Li Da, the Dianshi who drank too much last night, was at home sick and did not go to work, were all in Hefenglou.
Well, it can be said that except for the county magistrate Zhu Ping'an, the entire Jingnan county government is present.
Hefeng Building was reserved by them, and there was a sign "No reception when closed" outside to ensure that no one would disturb them.
The county magistrate, Zhang Changru, was sitting at the top of the seat just like his master, surrounded by all the stars. The table is full of delicacies, including mountain delicacies, wild game, seafood and aquatic products. Every dish is well-prepared and delicious, and every jar of wine exudes an intoxicating fragrance. Everyone pushed cups and changed cups, and gathered together happily.
"Hahaha, I guess the face of Xiaoxian Zun will be green now." Liu Yunshan, an official at the banquet, smiled while holding a wine glass.
"Hehe, after this meeting, I think his face is already green. Hey, Zhang Danian, didn't Xiaoxian Zun stop you and ask you to send him the backlog of case files? What's the matter? I heard that your torture room didn't even sort out a file in one day. Haha, you didn't see that when Xiao Xianzun came out of your household and transferred to our ceremony room, the face was pulled, it was a little smile nothing."
Household official Wang Bin accepted the words with a smile, and pushed Zhang Danian, the criminal office official sitting next to him, and joked with a smile.
"Oh, Brother Wang, you still have the face to say that Brother Zhang, isn't your house the same? The Xiaoxian asked you to count the owed money, food and taxes in the county. I heard that you couldn't even manage a village in one day Count it. Hehe, how big is the village so that you can count it all in one day?" Xu Zhi, the official of the ceremonial house, squeezed his eyes at Wang Bin, the official of the household house, and said with a narrow smile.
"Ahem, I can't help it. The accumulated cases have been going on for a long time, the cases are complicated, and I have dealt with so many county officials. There are many and complicated files, and the files are still incomplete. Naturally, it is very difficult to sort them out." Zhang Danian, the magistrate of the Ministry of Punishment, coughed with a smile, and shrugged his shoulders with a smile.
"Yeah, yes, yes, our household department is also the same, the situation in the villages below is complicated, there are married couples who live alone, some married daughters, some widows remarried, this situation is very complicated, and it is also difficult for us to count. " Housekeeper Wang Bin followed Zhang Danian's words and shrugged with a smile.
Then, the two looked at each other with a tacit smile on the corners of their mouths.
"Hehe, let's pull you down!" Everyone laughed when they heard this.
"Hahaha, the crow landed on the pig, let's not laugh at each other. Drink, drink." Zhang Danian, the prison official, and Wang Bin, the household official, held up their wine glasses, smiling and respecting the officials around them.
Everyone smiled and clinked glasses, drinking to their heart's content.
"Hehe, to tell you the truth, when our little county lord came to our torture room to press for files, when he learned that we hadn't sorted out any files, he didn't dare to fart, and he said that we worked hard."
Punishment official Zhang Danian put down his wine glass and boasted to everyone with a smile.
"Hehe, what else can he do other than grit his teeth and swallow his blood. He is a foreigner, a young man, what can he do if he leaves us?! After leaving us all, he can't even fart as a naked magistrate."
Dian Shi Lida wiped the wine stains on his beard with his hand, then stretched out his hand and pulled a chicken leg from the plate, went up and tore off a large piece of meat with his mouth, and said disdainfully while chewing.
"What Mr. Li said is that as long as we all hug each other tightly, he is a brat who is still young, and he is not allowed to be manipulated by us." Everyone nodded in agreement, and they were extremely disdainful of Zhu Pingan, the county magistrate.
"The position of the county official should belong to Mr. Zhang. He, Zhu Pingan, is a young boy, how can he have the qualifications and ability to manage our complicated situation in Jingnan County?"
Punisher Zhang Danian picked up his wine glass, got up and came to Zhang Changru who was sitting in the main seat, and offered a glass of wine flatteringly.
"Hey, you can't say that the county magistrate was appointed by the superior, how can he be an incompetent person." The county magistrate Zhang Changru was very pleased with Zhang Danian's words, his eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, but he still spoke in an official tone.
"Hehe, Zhu Ping'an is not an incompetent person, then there will be no incompetent person in the world. He is not only an incompetent person, but also a big fool. He was stupid in reading, and when he was in the capital, he even conspired to impeach Mr. Yan, you Say he's not stupid?! Lifang Dian also came to toast Zhang Xiancheng and slandered Zhu Pingan. He was well-informed and had already found out the reason why Zhu Pingan was relegated.
"Hitting a pebble against a rock and using a mantis' arm as a cart, he is not only stupid, he is so stupid." Everyone burst into laughter.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Zhang, I heard that you met a nobleman in Beijing?" Everyone at the wine table asked curiously.
"Everyone is well-informed. You are all from my own family, so I won't hide it from you. I met Zhang Langzhong from the Ministry of Officials through my wife and uncle in the capital." Zhang Xiancheng leaned back on the chair, slowly Said slowly.
"Master Zhang from the Ministry of Officials! My Lord Zhang, we have to hug your big thick legs. You are already connected to the Ministry of Officials. Your official career will definitely be prosperous in the future. My Lord Zhang, you will be prosperous in the future. Don't forget us poor brothers.
Everyone praised him for a while, and even Zhang Danian, the criminal history official who is used to flattering, really went to hug Zhang Xiancheng's thigh.
Are you so surprised that you can't stand it? !
Zhang Xiancheng squinted his eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, looked narrowly at everyone and asked, "When I was about to leave Beijing, guess who I met again?"
"Who?" Everyone was very curious.
"Yan Shifan, Young Master Yan." Zhang Xiancheng didn't keep everyone waiting, and he couldn't wait to reveal the answer.
"Master Yan Xiao?!"
Everyone at the banquet opened their mouths wide in surprise, the exclamation sounded like thunder, and the atmosphere instantly became high.
"That's right, it's Mr. Yan Xiaoxiang. A few days before I left Beijing, I got to know Mr. Yan's cousin Ouyang Zishi and Mr. Yan's good friend Luo Longwen. It was through them that I was able to meet Mr. Yan. Master." When he said this, Zhang Xiancheng's eyebrows were about to fly up, as if his whole body was glowing.
"Master Zhang is truly a blessing. You met Mr. Yan Xiaoxiang, and it's just a blink of an eye."
People praised Zhang Xiancheng even more.
"To tell you the truth, when I was in the capital, Young Master Yan had already asked Luo Longwen to greet the officials. The next magistrate of Jingnan County is me, Zhang Changru." Zhang Xiancheng squinted his eyes and raised his head to scan the crowd.
"Congratulations to Mr. Zhang, congratulations to Mr. Zhang." Everyone congratulated for a while.
The next magistrate, this is easy to handle, as long as Zhu Ping'an becomes the predecessor, won't he be. Then let's tell Zhu Ping'an to leave quickly, or...everyone present here reached a consensus amidst the wine.
