Views:

Ye Xiaotian didn't expect Hua Qingfeng to be so outrageous now, she was so terrified that it was unimaginable. Asked the girl, but didn't know where the magistrate had gone, Ye Xiaotian couldn't wait here all the time, after thinking about it, he turned around and walked forward.

At this time, the news of Ye Xiaotian's return had spread wildly in the county government. After the initial shock, many people instinctively began to analyze the series of changes that Ye Xiaotian would cause after his return, but except for following Ye Xiaotian wholeheartedly, they were suppressed by Xu Boyi. Those who were excluded were ecstatic, while others felt more of a headache.

If you want to follow a person, you should not only look at the person's ability, but also look at whether his background is deep enough and the background is strong enough. They admire Ye Xiaotian's means and ability, but Xu Boyi is also good in this regard, otherwise he can get the approval of the master Wang, and he can take back the power that Hua Qingfeng has already held in his hands bit by bit

But when it comes to backstage and background, most people tend to favor Xu Boyi. During the days when Ye Xiaotian was not in Hu County, Xu Boyi had quietly leaked his and Ye Xiaotian's backgrounds. Of course, the news he leaked must be inclined to him.

According to the information held by the officials and officials in Hu County, Xu Xiancheng is the disciple of Shui Xitian's family, one of the four heavenly kings of Ansong, Tianyang, and that is his backstage. The eldest lady of the Tian family can't give him more specific help, but it's not too much for him to borrow the momentum and reputation of the Tian family. After all, he is a person who works for the Tian family, how can he let the horse run and let the horse not eat grass.

As for Ye Xiaotian, according to the information revealed by Xu Boyi, he looked like he was out of luck. Because Tongren Mansion urgently needs to make some achievements in culture and education, so the big man was pulled out of the file, and he was designated as a juren. After that, he tried his best to win the favor of Miss Xia of Hongfeng Lake.

But what kind of family is the Xia family in Hongfeng Lake? That family is second only to the Four Heavenly Kings, one of the Eight Great King Kongs, and one of the top Tusi group forces in Guizhou. How could such a family be able to look up to a local turtle like Ye Xiaotian. So the Xia family and Ye Xiaotian made a deal, on the condition of leaving the eldest lady of the Xia family, they helped him arrange an official position in Huxian Dianshi.

In this way, those subordinate officials still don't know how to choose? Being in the public school, they all have a certain level of awareness in the officialdom. Ye Xiaotian and Xu Boyi's backgrounds and backgrounds are in contrast to each other. It is clear that Xu Boyi is superior, and not a small one, but a big one.

Furthermore, now that Xu Boyi has firmly controlled Hu County with the acquiescence and cooperation of Master Wang, so what if Ye Dianshi comes back, can he still turn the tables in this situation? Those subordinates and servants who were involved and had to make choices could easily make judgments after calming down.

Including those who just saw Ye Xiaotian showing his power in front of the Yamen, and moved to change the family, after calming down, they weighed more and leaned more towards Xu Xiancheng's side, because they couldn't think of Ye Xiaotian's possibility of turning defeat into victory under such circumstances. .

Of course, even if it is decided that Ye Dianshi will eventually lose in this contest, this person is not something they can fight against. They might as well serve him well and obediently agree to any orders, otherwise if he puts down his value and sincerely seeks out these officials and officials Xu Xiancheng can't maintain it all the time.

However, this is on the premise that there is no major conflict between Ye Xiaotian and Xu Boyi. If the two adults give orders at the same time, they will naturally obey Xu Xiancheng's orders, and they can only prevaricate Ye Xiaotian. However, under normal circumstances, it is not the turn of these small officials and servants to participate in the fighting of people of this level, and this is where they are lucky.

"You said that person's name is Ye Xiaotian?"

The little maid came back to Mrs. Ya, and casually mentioned that Ye Xiaotian wanted to see the master. Mrs. Ya couldn't help but brows brows when she heard that, and two crimson clouds flew up on her excited cheeks: "He is back indeed! Hurry up! Immediately!" Invite him to the third hall and serve him tea!"

The little girl was stunned, and said in surprise: "Huh? Has the master come back yet?"

Mrs. Ya said angrily: "Master hasn't come back, can such an important person be neglected? Don't be so wordy, please ask him to sit down for a while, I will change my clothes and go see him!"

"Oh! Oh! Okay!" The little girl quickly agreed, and ran to the door of the third hall, where Ye Xiaotian was still there.

Ye Xiaotian heard that the magistrate of Hua was not here, and he didn't know when he would come back. He couldn't wait there all the time, so he turned back and wanted to go to the Dianshi room first. After passing two rows of houses, he ran into Zhou Bantou and Ma Hui. , Xu Haoran hurried over, seeing Ye Xiaotian, Team Leader Zhou choked up excitedly and said: "My lord, you are back!"

Ye Xiaotian frowned when he saw Bantou Zhou's attire, and said in a deep voice, "Old Zhou, have you been transferred to the waiter?"

With tears in his eyes, Banto Zhou said, "Yes! After Mr. Dian Shi was arrested and sent to Nanjing, disaster will happen to our old man!"

Ye Xiaotian sneered and said, "This Xu Boyi still has nothing new in his whole life, he only comes and goes like this?" As he spoke, he looked at Ma Hui and Xu Haoran, and he knew the two of them by their attires. It must be an errand in the delivery room.

Xu Boyi's move is indeed not new, but it is a common method in official circles: let you stand aside.

A "stand aside" is enough to establish prestige and achieve the effect of punishment.

Think about it, Zhou Bantou was originally the head of the arresting team, and in the words of later generations, he was the captain of the criminal investigation team in Hu County, but because he followed Ye Xiaotian and refused to repent, he was transferred to the office by Xu Boyi, and he did not hold any position He is just a handyman who is responsible for moving tables and chairs during meetings, and is responsible for providing tea to officials on weekdays. What future does he have

Putting such a person there, letting others scold and instigate him, is also the best negative teaching material for other officials and officials, and can play the role of killing chickens and monkeys.

As for Ma Hui and Xu Haoran, two excellent arresters in the arresting room, they were transferred to the issuing room to do the internal work, and they were only responsible for receiving and conveying documents every day. For those who are in their prime, they are pointed at, ridiculed and ridiculed on weekdays. If the family members don't understand... how depressing those days are.

Although Ye Xiaotian ridiculed Xu Boyi for not seeing anything new, he also knew that these people must have suffered great grievances. Ye Xiaotian gently put his arms around Ma Hui and Xu Haoran's shoulders, looked at Zhou Bantou and said, "You are all my Ye Xiaotian's." Good brothers, as long as I, Ye Xiaotian, have a day of prosperity, I will never forget you!"

In Ye Xiaotian's words, Zhou Bantou is older and can still control his emotions, but Ma Hui and Xu Haoran are already crying. Ye Xiaotian let them vent, and when they gradually calmed down, he asked them about Hu County's experience during this period.

After listening to Bantou Zhou's introduction, Ye Xiaotian was also speechless. After he was dispatched to Nanjing, he himself did not have the slightest confidence that he could come back safe and sound. Xu Boyi was his boss, but now he also took over his position, mobilizing his people, occupying his territory, and robbing his power , naturally easy.

But before that, he fought against Qi Mu, against Meng County Prime Minister, against Xu Boyi, and secretly wrestled with Master Wang, creating a good situation for Huazhi County, allowing the county magistrate to take back part of the power and cultivate Some confidantes, and those have been lost in the past few months.

Although the county magistrate has been on guard against Xu Xiancheng and Wang Zhubu, but he can't see through their schemes against him, so he is easily teased by the scheming Wang Zhubu and the insidious Xu Xiancheng. The power in his hands is almost given away by his hands, he is simply an idiot who "sold him out, and he happily counted the money for him".

Once the power is lost, the people gathered under his command can't resist Xu Boyi's soft and hard methods, and 80% of the 10% will change their family in this way and take refuge in Xu Boyi.

"Hey! Our county magistrate is really worse than Adou. No wonder those people are desperate for Huazhi County. However, under this situation, there are still 20% of them who are still loyal to him. It seems that our county magistrate is at least here. It’s not a failure in life.”

Bantou Zhou smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, the people who are still attached to Huazhi County are all recruited by Su Xuntian in all likelihood. Although the subordinate officials are lowly servants, there are many loyal people among them. Su Xuntian treats them well." With sincerity, these people will make up their minds to work for him. Xu Xiancheng only wants to seize the power of Huazhi County, but he doesn't have to force Huazhi County to death. No further suppression."

"Oh? It turned out to be Su Xuntian's credit?"

Ye Xiaotian was a little pleased when he heard this, but he didn't expect that Su Xuntian, who had no ambitions, would actually develop skills. Speaking of it, the one that remains the same is always the master Hua Qing Feng Hua.

Bantou Zhou hesitated for a moment, and then said to Ye Xiaotian: "After Xu Xiancheng gained power, many people turned around and joined his sect, including Li Yuncong, who is now Xu Xiancheng's man."

Ye Xiaotian's face darkened, and Bantou Zhou said worriedly: "My lord?"

Ye Xiaotian said slowly: "I've only been away for a few months, but Huxian County has been turned upside down. Pass down the order, eighth class and nine rooms, see you at the front office!"

Bantou Zhou's expression changed, and he said excitedly: "My lord, do you want to..."

Ye Xiaotian smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't think too much, I just came back, just to meet everyone."

Zhou Bantou couldn't believe it, and said excitedly: "Yes! I will pass the order for the humble job!"

Zhou Bantou, Ma Hui, and Xu Haoran acted separately, conveying Ye Xiaotian's orders to various departments and rooms. All the subordinate officials and government servants were whispering to each other in each house and courtyard, speculating about a series of shocks that Ye Xiaotian might cause after returning to Hu County, and suddenly Ye Xiaotian's order was passed down.

"Master Dianshi has an order, eight classes, nine rooms and one cadre, wait in the front hall!"

Not three classes and six rooms, but eight classes and nine rooms. When people mention the county yamen, there are three classes and six offices, three classes of Zao, Kuai, and arrest, and six classes of officials, householders, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers. This is because these are the main parts of a county office. With three Class Liufang can set up a shelf of a county government.

However, in addition to these nine important functional departments in a county government, there are actually some other departments, such as the delivery room, warehouse, and tea room. There is also Zhuang outside, and at the same time, these four shifts are divided into "head" and "second".

Ye Xiaotian's order included all the people in the entire county government office. With one order, everyone left their signing room and gathered in the courtyard of the front hall. What can I do if I don't go? Now the county magistrate, county magistrate, and master master are all gone, there are no tigers in the mountains, and Xiaotian is the overlord, what can we do if we don't go
