Turbulent Times Chapter 892: Suddenly turned my face
"What your lord said is very true. You will not disappoint your lord when you come to Fanyang County." Chang Ren said with a smile. At this moment, his whole body was relaxed, and the last trace of tension deep in his heart was completely gone.
Wang Junlin nodded, but his eyes had already passed them: "These are the other officials, nobles and nobles in Changxiang County, right?"
Chang Youcai, the county magistrate of Chang Township, quickly introduced them one by one. , with a dark complexion, looked up and down from the eighth-rank officer with a resolute look, and said with a smile: "I heard that you used to be the personal soldier of General You Yiwei who came to protect your son, because you are the only son in the family, and a younger sister was killed by a thief. You were killed and had to go back to your hometown, and you couldn’t stay with General Lai all the time, so the General arranged for you to go back to your hometown, Changxiang County, Fanyang County, and become the leader of the Youdu regiment.”
"Xiaguan was indeed a soldier of General Lai." When Feng Xiaoyong said this, his expression was full of guilt and gratitude. Obviously, he had always felt guilty for not being able to continue serving by Lai Huer's side. Hu'er is grateful for arranging for him to return to his hometown to become an official.
"The so-called filial piety comes first, and you can give up your bright future for your parents, which shows that your virtue must be very good." Wang Junlin boasted casually.
"Thank you for your praise, sir." Feng Xiaoyong looked a little excited, and his face turned red. All along, he gave up his bright future and went back to his hometown to become the leader of the 500th regiment who was hard to get promoted. Many people ridiculed him for being short-sighted. At that time, I felt that Wang Junlin's words of "filial piety first" all of a sudden came to my heart.
After two seemingly casual conversations, Wang Junlin ignored Feng Xiaoyong and signaled the county magistrate Chang Youcai to continue introducing others.
After meeting and exchanging greetings, the crowd surrounded Wang Junlin and entered the county seat of Changxiang, and then followed the rules of the officialdom to clean up the dust.
Just halfway through the banquet, Wang Junlin received a scroll from Shan Xiongxin, and after reading it, his expression became gloomy.
Everyone's attention was always on Wang Junlin, and the audience was suddenly silent. Liu Ziming waved his hand to let the singer and dancer go down.
"Master Chang, the thirteen-year-old twin sisters in your house are very fun to play with!" Wang Junlin said suddenly with a cold face.
Chang Youcai was taken aback for a moment, thinking that it is a pity that the prefect fell in love with the pair of stunning sisters, but since the prefect opened his mouth, he had no choice but to reluctantly give up, so he said with a smile: "My lord If you like it, Xiaguan will send the pair of sisters to the adult room tonight."
"In order to get the daughter of the people's family, you used your power to rob and force the other party to lose their property, and you took the initiative to send a pair of daughters to you. Afterwards, in order to have no worries, you sent people pretending to be thieves to kill the seven members of the woman's family. I don’t dare to take the woman who came here.” Wang Junlin said coldly.
When Chang Youcai heard the words, he was so excited that he completely sobered up, knelt down with a thump, and said, "Your Excellency wronged me, and I have never done such a thing. The lower officials are concubines, as for the killing of their family members, it was really the work of thieves, not the lower officials, please be careful."
Wang Junlin sneered, pointed to the scroll, and said: "Let's not talk about this matter for now. Three years ago you arrested the Wu family for the crime of theft, and used half a year to empty out the Wu family's money." , Wu's 300 mu of fertile land also belonged to your name, and Wu's family also died of illness in prison, so you are also wronged in this matter?"
Chang Youcai's face suddenly turned pale, and his body was sweating profusely. He said bravely, "My lord, this... this matter is also wronged..."
Not waiting for Chang Youcai to finish speaking, Wang Junlin snorted coldly, interrupted him, and said, "Your son raped a woman surnamed Feng to death, and you asked someone to pretend to be a flower picker and kidnap the other family's family." Killing the family and planting the spoils on the flower pickers, is it true that you are wronged in this matter. Hmph! Here are five other things that you murdered for money or took away your wife and daughter. Do you want me to read it to you one by one? Of course you will too. Said he was wronged."
"My lord, please forgive me!" Chang Youcai had already collapsed to the ground, kowtowing to Wang Junlin.
"You bastard, my sister was killed by your son, and my brother-in-law's family was also killed by you. I will kill you." Feng Xiaoyong suddenly exploded and kicked Chang Youcai, the county magistrate with one foot, and was about to step on Chang Youcai's head with the second kick. Feng Xiaoyong was able to become the personal soldier of General Lai Hu'er, and he had the strength in the foundation period. If he stepped on the second foot with anger, often talented people would undoubtedly die.
But he didn't step on the second foot, so Shan Xiong grabbed him and threw him aside.
"My lord is here, how can I allow you to act wildly." Shan Xiongxin shouted coldly.
Feng Xiaoyong regained his composure after being hit by this fall, knelt down in front of Wang Junlin with a thud, and said with red eyes, "My lord, please make the decision and let the subordinate kill the thief Chang Youcai."
"You step aside first, and I will make the decision for you." Wang Junlin said meaningfully.
"Thank you, sir." Feng Xiaoyong saluted Wang Junlin, got up and stood aside, staring at Chang Youcai who was injured by his kick, got up again and continued to beg Wang Junlin for mercy.
"You are often talented, you should be convicted." Wang Junlin said coldly.
Chang Youcai stopped kowtowing and begging for mercy, glanced at Feng Xiaoyong, then at Wang Junlin, and suddenly said to Lu Jiandong, the next county magistrate, "Lord Lu, I have done a lot for your Lu family in recent years. The Lu family can't ignore death..."
"Master Chang, don't talk nonsense in front of the prefect. How can our Lu family ask you to do things for us?" Being able to speak to Chang Youcai, and he knew in his heart that speaking to Chang Youcai at this time would probably cause him to burn himself.
Wang Junlin glanced at Lu Jiandong, and suddenly said to Zhai Tianlin, the captain of Changxiang County, who was standing to one side with an unsteady face and faint sweat oozing from his forehead: "Chang Youcai committed the other five heinous things. I won't read them all. , but here are a few things about Captain Zhai Tianlin, I would like to tell everyone."
Zhai Tianlin's complexion changed drastically, he suppressed the fear in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Excellency, don't wrongfully dismiss the official, otherwise even a thousand county soldiers in the city will not agree."
Wang Junlin seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous, and said: "You little captains of the county soldiers dare to threaten me. You really want to die. If this official is not the prefect of Fanyang County, you are already dead at this time. Yes. But now that I have become a county parent official, killing people must follow the rules, and killing court officials also requires damning evidence."
