Heavenly Dao Formula

Shenzhou, Baisha County.

In the hall of the government office, Qian Zhixian, Zhang Zhubo, Fei Zhuang and Tang Yingzhi, the heads of two big local households, were sitting around the hot pot, discussing the recent big and small things that happened in the city.

When they talked about it, they couldn't avoid the term "Affair Bureau".

Now everyone knows that Princess Guangping has set up a general affairs bureau in Jinxia City, taking away most of the functions of the yamen. Of course, everyone disagreed with such an obvious violation of the rules. The court finally sent a new prefect. I thought there would be a confrontation, but I didn't expect this person to be a softie. He knows how to deal with refugees all day long. While disappointing everyone, it also added a lot of jokes.

However, when Jinxia City opened the office branch to Baisha City, Qian Zhixian and the others couldn't help but laugh.

He is an official appointed by the imperial court, so there is no reason to hand over power to others.

If it wasn't for the fact that this "branch" only had four or five people, only rented a small shop as a base, and had no intention of interfering in the county's political affairs for the time being, even if he had a falling out with the princess, he would have had to drive this branch out.

Of course, the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant's nest - as long as he is still the lord of a county, even if the other party does not reveal his intentions, he must take strict precautions.

Qian Zhixian has asked his subordinates to spread the word that no matter what the bureau wants to do, whoever dares to pick up their faults, or has any contact in private, he will make the perpetrators feel overwhelmed!

"I heard that this bureau is collecting the number of residents in the county?" Tang Yingzhi put a piece of cooked meat into the bowl, "It seems to be replaced with salt."

"Master Tang's news is not very well-informed." Mr. Zhang said with a smile, "They have been tossing about for half a month. However, the young people who were in charge had no hair on their mouths. I made a small plan and the matter basically fell through. .”

"Oh? How did Master Zhang do it?"

"Simple, get a group of people together and come to ask for salt every day. As for the resident information, isn't that just fabricated?" The master clerk poured himself a glass of wine, "It's easy for them to see the clues, but so what? As long as they don't give Salt, just make trouble at the door. The people onlookers are not so good at distinguishing the authenticity from the fake. Besides, I don’t need to promote this trick. It can also make do with the winter."

"Good plan!" Tang Yingzhi picked up the wine glass and raised it to Master Zhang, "I toast you!"

"Everyone, don't rush to be happy." Fei Zhuang's face was much calmer, "I just found out about something, and it might be a little troublesome."

"What's up?"

"In the accident at the mine five months ago, Mrs. Pan's family went to the affairs bureau."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze.

This incident can be regarded as an "accident" in the county, and the cause is not complicated: the Fei family is the main miner of the Baisha Mine, and several brothers of the Pan family work as shovel workers in the mine. Fei Zhuang's third son had a rift with the Pan family, and he led someone to beat him to death in a fight, and then pretended to be a mine to solve the problem.

The mine is inherently dangerous, and it is not uncommon for a few people to die occasionally. It is not the first time that the Fei family has done this kind of thing. Even when there are people who need to be dealt with secretly by the county magistrate, they will ask the Fei family to help.

The accident happened to the Pan's family—coincidentally, no one expected that someone among the relatives of the deceased would have worked as a gangster. After receiving the bodies of the brothers, the wife of the Pan family declared that they did not die in the mine accident, but were killed by people. He was beaten to death, and he did not hesitate to make a fuss in the county government. The magistrate of Qian would definitely not expose the old background of the Fei family, not to mention that the other party also offered a large amount of filial money, so naturally the Pan family's mother was sentenced to lose the lawsuit, and she was beaten to death in the name of framing her.

At this point, the case should have been closed—the Pan family is just a white family, not even a poor family, so there is no possibility of causing any disturbances. Therefore, when Fei Zhuang mentioned this matter seriously, everyone showed obvious surprise on their faces.

"Where did you hear that?" Qian Zhixian couldn't help asking.

"Inside the Bureau." Fei Zhuang said in a deep voice.

"Did you buy the eyeliner?"

"Hmph, after all, they are all white men, who have never seen anything in the world." He tapped on the table lightly and said, "I was a bit reserved in the first few contacts, why Jinxia City has official discipline, and I really regard myself as an official I came to see it. When the golden leaf waved, didn’t your eyes stare and you couldn’t speak clearly?”

"Mr. Fei is good at tricks." Master Zhang pondered for a while, "You said that this bureau...does it mean that they want to use the Pan family to intervene in Baisha City?"

"It's hard to say. The main reason is that they have been here for too short a time, and I can't find out the details of each of them. But this matter... It's better not to get Jinxia involved."

"It makes sense." There was a gloomy tone in Qian Zhixian's tone. It's not that he didn't warn the locals not to contact the secretariat in private, but some people just ignored him, so it's no wonder he was merciless. "I heard that if you want to win a group of people, simply giving benefits may not be effective. Sometimes it is the most appropriate method to give kindness and power."

"The magistrate already has an idea?" Fei Zhuang frowned.

"That's right. I'm an official who pays attention to evidence. Since I have doubts, I'd better take the people from the secretariat and Mrs. Pan's family to the mine. Field research is more reliable than verbal confrontation, right?" County Magistrate Qian sighed. "But places like mines are full of dangers."

The corners of Fei Zhuang's mouth could not help but curl up, "In the end, they all died in the mine disaster?"

"Of course not." Qian Zhixian picked up a meatball and put it on the table, "They are sent by the third princess after all. One death is enough at this time."

The other three looked at each other, and it was self-evident who this candidate was.

The magistrate slowly pressed down the chopsticks until the meatballs turned into a puddle of meat paste, "Whoever sees a big living person like this in front of him will feel sincere panic? As long as it is involved in the mine, it is inevitable There will be accidents, this is Wei. After seeing Enwei, they should be more cautious in their next choice."

"In this way, the Pan family can completely shut up." Fei Zhuang said comfortingly, "Jiang is indeed old and hot, I toast my lord!"

"Together, together." Qian Zhixian smiled and raised his glass.

At this moment, a servant came out of the inner hall, "Master Qian, Tang Luming from the Office has a letter to send to you."

He opened the letter and spread it out in front of the table, "Heh... It really is about Mrs. Pan's family. Anyway, since the other party came to the door on its own initiative, I'll trouble Mr. Fei to arrange a reception."

"Where is it, this matter can be settled thanks to the help of adults..." Fei Zhuang was suddenly stunned in the middle of speaking, and he saw Qian Zhixian's face suddenly changed, "What's the matter, is there something wrong with what he wrote later?"

"It's unreasonable—it's unreasonable!" The more Qian Zhixian looked back, the more he felt incredible. He thought it was a "negotiation letter" at the beginning, but later, he found out that it was a "letter of ultimatum"!

I saw the high-sounding words on the letter: "We have obtained all the evidence in the case of the Pan family. We request you to close the government office immediately, take off your official robe, bind your hands, and cooperate with the Bureau of Investigation. This is an ultimatum, and the time limit is The deadline is tomorrow morning. If you don’t follow suit, Jinxia’s arresting troops will launch a strong attack from the north gate. At that time, the sword will have no eyes, and the casualties will be at your own risk.”

"Issued by Jinxia City Affairs Bureau."

What is this stuff?

Qian Zhixian's first reaction was that he was being tricked, let alone the letter's tone was extremely arrogant and its content was nonsense, just the word arrest is nonsense! He is an official appointed by the imperial court, except for the officials, who is qualified to take off his official robe?

Does the other party still want to rebel! ?
