The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 638

[Chapter 638 The Root of the Problem]

“Your Excellency is so wise!”

The other two people heard this and looked at each other, and they could see surprise in each other’s eyes.

They haven’t thought about this problem.

Before, I just thought that the new Amber was difficult to deal with, but after hearing the prefect’s words, I suddenly felt enlightened.

yes!

No matter who you are, you have your weaknesses.

Although New Amber has no weaknesses, it is not without any solutions. As long as they follow New Amber in everything, wouldn’t the final result be the same?

Even if Xin Anbo had four legs, he wouldn’t be able to run through the entire Central Plains Road and ask every household, right?

Even if the new Amber really finds out some secrets, they can just admit their mistakes when the time comes.

At most, they would be scolded. Is it possible that Xin Amber could dismiss them just because of such a trivial matter?

That would be too childish!

The prefect listened to everyone’s praise, waved his hands, and continued: “What Xin Anbo wants is nothing more than for the policy of unifying the land and the Ding to be implemented in the Central Plains.

Then we will let the policy of unifying the land and the Ding be implemented, but what we have done is Whether it is good or bad, this is a question of whether this policy is reasonable, and it is not something we can control.

Sirs, is what I said still reasonable? “

At this moment, Tongzhi and Tongpan have already expressed their feelings for this trusted prefect. They all bowed to the ground and expressed their admiration: “The magistrate is wise, I have learned from you!”

When the magistrate heard this, he stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, looking very proud of himself.

At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart.

A little new Amber, at most a half-grown child, fighting with him?

Not even close!

As the prefect was thinking this, there was a sudden knock on the door.

“Didn’t I tell you that when we are discussing matters with you adults, please don’t disturb us on even the most important matters!” The prefect

heard the knock on the door and looked outside the door with dissatisfaction and said coldly.

Then

the door was kicked open.

Several guards with swords rushed in and immediately surrounded the three of them in a circle.

The leader was a school captain. He looked at the prefect, smiled, and said, “I wonder what the three adults are discussing here?

It’s so mysterious. Could it be that they are discussing how to deal with the Jiedushi Master?”

Linze Mansion is so big, They looked down and saw each other.

In just a moment, the prefect recognized the captain as one of Li Jing’s men.

His face changed first, and then he forced out a smile and said: “General Liu, what are you talking about? Under the control of Master Jieduzhi, I am a subordinate official. I can only obey. How can I think about dealing with it?”

“No.” That’s good.”

The lieutenant snorted coldly, took out a document from his arms, and read: “From now on, all officials in the Linze Mansion will be dismissed from all positions, and all will be taken into custody until the policy of unifying the land and the Ding is implemented. , and then release it as appropriate!”

The three ‘adults’ were stunned in one sentence, with one word written all over their faces – confusion.

After a while, the prefect finally came to his senses and said hurriedly: “General Liu, what does this mean?

Is there some misunderstanding?”

The captain shook his head and said, “I personally received this document from Lord Jiedushi. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

“No, no, that’s not what I meant.” When

the prefect heard this, he became even more anxious and argued, “What I meant was, I didn’t do anything!

Could it be that the official did not go to greet the Lord Jiedushi?

This can be explained! The government

has recently implemented the policy of integrating land and Ding, and everyone in the government office is too tired to greet him. Master Jiedushi,

please be careful!”

“I just passed on Master Jiedushi’s order. You should go and tell Master Jiedushi these words!”

the captain snorted. Tell the soldiers to push him down.

Seeing this, the prefect had a look of horror on his face and said: “How can I explain to Lord Jiedushi when I get to the dungeon!? General Liu, you and I are also in the same comrades. Please send a message.”

“Take it away

.”

!”

The captain already ignored him, and with a wave of his hand, soldiers came forward immediately.

When the three of them saw this scene, they knew it was serious, and their inner panic reached the extreme.

In particular, the prefect was already broken and said loudly: “I want to see Master Jiedushi, I want to see Master Jiedushi!

We obviously made no mistakes, we didn’t do anything, why did Master Jiedushi treat us like this?” ! ?

We are all officials of the imperial court!

Lord Jieduzhi is so unreasonable. Do you take your majesty into consideration? Do you take the imperial court seriously? Do you care about the law? In the eyes!”

There were screams and roars one after another, but unfortunately they disappeared with a gust of wind before they left the house.

The three prefects never expected this.

They thought hard and discussed the countermeasures, but they were of no use and were stillborn.

Even in the end, they didn’t understand what mistake they had made.

It has to be said that compared to Fang Xiu, these people are just ordinary people, and they only think about conventional means when thinking about problems.

Fang Xiu is different. He knows where the root of the problem is and just uproots it.

Why is this strategy of uniting land and Ding so difficult to implement?

In the final analysis, it lies in the word ‘gentry’.

One scholar and one gentry

hold power, while the other holds wealth.

Power protects wealth, and wealth supports power.

As long as any of the gentry does not fall, it will be difficult to implement the strategy of unifying the land and the Ding.

In this case, let’s just uproot this gentleman and see if anyone can stop him!

As for how to maintain this government office without the gentry?

Fang Xiu naturally has a countermeasure.

First, recruit those knowledgeable people and failed scholars in Linze Mansion, and then hold an examination.

Fang Xiu had already thought about the topics for the exam in the capital.

Why should An Linze

, when the time comes, just choose someone who has no big loopholes in logic and handles various problems appropriately to act as an official and temporarily fill this vacancy?

In this era, a city of Linze Prefecture can only have hundreds of thousands or more than 200,000 people at most. How many things can it do?

Once you have read some books, become more flexible in your mind, and know the etiquette, justice and integrity, you can handle most things.

As for the matters that they couldn’t decide, they would send them to Fang Xiu, and Fang Xiu could handle them by himself.

Again, it’s hard to find a toad with three legs. Isn’t it still hard to find a person with two legs?

“Sir, I have already sent someone to handle your order. What should I do next?”

In the government office, Li Jing stood beside Fang Xiu and asked with an apologetic smile.

During this period of time, he had suffered countless grievances in Linze Mansion, and all of them were released at this moment.

When he saw those civil servants who usually didn’t take him seriously at all, being pushed into the dungeon one by one, he felt extremely happy.

At this moment, I just want to show off more in front of Fang Xiu.
