Yinzi was escorted back to Beijing by the Imperial Forest Army, so many boxes and the robbers following behind attracted countless attentions.
The box was delivered to the palace. The emperor looked at the jewels and utensils in front of him, as well as the ledger on the top. Before the Imperial Forest Army could even speak, she almost guessed what was going on.
The servant came over with the account book and Shi Qing's paper, and handed it to the emperor with both hands.
"She only left Beijing for a day or two, and the entire mountain was wiped out."
The emperor looked through the booklet.
Shi Qing explained his handling of the matter in detail, including giving certain methods for dealing with the aftermath, which can basically be implemented.
She didn't leave after suppressing the bandits, but made all the arrangements properly.
Shi Qing also remembered the details of how much stolen money was confiscated, and there was a lot of money.
If anyone dared to say that she was corrupt and broke the law, the account book would be thrown in the face of the other party immediately.
At the same time, Shiqing also referred to the local county magistrate Qian Kaitai in the zhezi, saying that she had done nothing and allowed the bandits to do harm.
The emperor was quite surprised, "Shi Qing didn't follow the official path?"
Then he thought that this person was Shi Qing, and felt that it was reasonable for her not to follow the official path.
"If she goes down now, some of the officials below may not be able to sit still."
The emperor closed the booklet and asked people to collect the gold and silver and other items into the treasury, "Remember first, when she returns to Beijing on business, she will be rewarded together."
As for Qian Kaitai...
The emperor asked her to properly arrange the male relatives on the mountain according to the method given by Shi Qing.
This can be regarded as the last chance for Qian Kaitai. As for whether she is willing to cherish it or not, it all depends on her luck.
The Qian family has restrained a lot recently, if they suppress it too much, it will appear too deliberate and chill the hearts of the courtiers.
But if Qian Kaitai himself is guilty of the crime, then this matter is wrong.
Shi Qing's suppression of bandits is too popular this time, and many people may feel dissatisfied. The first one is the local county magistrate—
Qian Kaitai.
After all, within her jurisdiction, bandits have been infested for many years, and it seems like an old disease that recurs repeatedly, and everyone thinks it is intractable.
As a result, an unreasonable doctor suddenly came one day, and cured the disease, even pulling out the root of the disease!
At this time, everyone can imagine what Qian Kaitai, the original doctor, thought.
As for Qian Kaitai, Shi Qing not only slapped her in the face but also cut off her financial resources.
Without bandits, how can we apply to the Ministry of Households for money to suppress bandits in the future
If you can't suppress the bandits, where can you get the oil and water
Shi Qing didn't show any face to her as the county magistrate at all, and didn't even notify the local yamen, and directly let the imperial forest army escort her back to Beijing.
In the county government office, Qian Kaitai's expression turned ugly.
She was almost the last to know what happened on her side.
Everyone is an official in the same dynasty, why is Shi Qing so fond of showing off
After Shi Qing grabbed the limelight and slapped her in the face, she turned around and asked her to deal with the aftermath. She, Qian Kaitai, had never suffered such a loss.
"Isn't she capable? Then let her deal with the aftermath by herself. The county magistrate is incompetent, not as good as her."
The acidity in the words is soaring.
The yamen servant next to her whispered, "But my lord, at that time, she was already heading towards the county yamen. Are you really not going to greet her?"
Qian Kaitai is in his early thirties this year, calling Qian's mother his cousin, and calling Qian Guijun in the palace his cousin. If there is no such relationship, how could he be assigned to the edge of the capital as a county magistrate.
Although she is a sixth-rank official, which adult around would be rude to her
Qian Kaitai's face darkened, "I am of the same sixth rank as her, why should I go out to meet her?"
The yamen servant's voice became lower and lower, "Just take it as a face for her..."
It's okay not to mention this matter, but Qian Kaitai gets angry when it is mentioned.
"Has she ever saved face for this official?"
Qian Kaitai snorted coldly, "She doesn't respect me, so I'll show her some color."
Outside, Shi Qing's carriage had already stopped at the gate of the county government office.
Qian Kaitai didn't go out to greet her, and the yamen servants under her didn't dare to make their own decisions, so they could only watch Shiqing walk in by himself.
Shi Qing walked in front, and Yun Zhi walked beside him holding his sword.
Qian Kaitai was sitting on the chair behind the county office bill case, saw Shi Qing coming in, stood up lazily and walked over, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know when my lord came here, it's really disappointing."
Shi Qing pulled out the chair and sat down by himself, with a completely indifferent tone, "It's okay, you still have time to greet me now."
Qian Kaitai choked for a moment, not knowing how to respond.
Shi Qing didn't fight her in the slightest in an official tone.
Shi Qing was here today to rest his feet and supervise the affairs of the men's family after the aftermath, and then he had to continue on his way. It was impossible to waste money with Qian Kaitai, so he talked straight to the point.
"I heard that bandits are infested here. I helped you suppress them when I came here. You don't have to thank me. There are still some things on the mountain that you need to deal with. Do you think so?"
Shi Qing looked at Qian Kaitai and spoke politely.
Qian Kaitai thought I would like to thank your family!
Sitting next to Shi Qing, she was full of bureaucracy, "This matter needs to be discussed in the long run, there is no rush."
Qian Kaitai picked up the teacup and said, "Isn't money needed to resettle the men's family members? It also needs money to arrange new identities for them, right? Including other things you can't think of, you need money. There is not so much spare money in the county government now, so There is no rush."
Like her, Shi Qing picked up the teacup and asked, "Then give me some time, when can this matter be done?"
"As soon as the end of the year." Qian Kaitai looked at Shi Qing, "I wonder if Mr. Shi has time to wait here?"
Yun Zhi sat beside him, frowning slightly, his thin lips pursed.
end of the year
When the weather became cold, those men had no ability to make a living, and were all trapped on the mountain, how could they survive the winter
This county magistrate clearly does not take human life seriously.
Qian Kaitai relies on a single word to do things.
Don't do it when things are delayed.
You can't say she didn't do it, she just did it slowly.
What's more, she didn't like it when she saw it in her heart, and she wanted to make things difficult for her and show her face, how could it be so easy to do things according to her request.
Qian Kaitai slowly sipped his tea, and said with a sneer, "Your Majesty is so capable, you must wait for the arrangement of the official, or you can do it yourself."
Shi Qing smiled, "Didn't you ask me if I have time?"
Qian Kaitai looked at her.
Shi Qing said: "Look at your burial time, I have plenty of time!"
"You're still waiting until the end of the year. What are you going to do during this time? Are you weaving a rope for yourself to hang yourself?"
"It only takes half a day for the coffin from my house in the capital to be transported to you. If I don't see your attitude in doing things during this half day, then tomorrow will be the time for you to be buried."
Qian Kaitai's face darkened, and he knocked the teacup on the table heavily, "Shi Qing, can you see whose county government office this is! Look who I am!"
Shi Qing sneered, and threw the teacup directly at Qian Kaitai's feet, with a "pop", Qian Kaitai's eyelids trembled in fright.
Shi Qing asked, "What's the matter, do you still want to attack the imperial envoy?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the Imperial Forest Army outside had surrounded the yamen servants who were about to rush in after hearing Qian Kaitai's voice.
Qian Kaitai's face turned pale, and his arrogance suddenly became less arrogant than before.
Shi Qing sat on the chair and looked up at Qian Kaitai, "What does who you have to do with me?"
"I ordered you to run a business. What kind of authority are you playing with me here? Don't you just hate me for suppressing the bandits?"
"If you can't handle this errand today, you will live in the same room with those robbers. Don't you have a good relationship? How about you go ahead of her when Qiuhou asks to be killed?"
Qian Kaitai's expression turned ugly, "I didn't say no to it, I just said that the yamen's money is not enough, so we have to delay it."
"Since you mentioned silver, I have to ask you."
Shi Qing was curious, "Where did the money from the imperial court to suppress the bandits go? Could it be that this money can't be used to settle the men on the mountain?"
"Or is it that you swallowed all the money in private?"
Shi Qing smiled, "If this is the case, the robbers will really have to walk behind you."
"You—" Qian Kaitai was about to speak when Shi Qing took out the imperial decree.
Qian Kaitai reluctantly bowed his head and knelt down to accept the order.
"...All the male relatives will be resettled within half a month within a limited amount of money. If one person is not properly resettled, he will be dismissed and investigated."
Shi Qing lifted up his clothes and squatted in front of Qian Kaitai, rolled up the imperial decree and patted her on the cheek, "Let's do it."
Qian Kaitai stared at Shi Qing, "Although your mother is a censor, my aunt is Master Qian. Shi Qing, don't be too arrogant, be careful that you don't know how you will die."
Shi Qing was speechless, "It's useless to threaten me."
She stood up and looked down at Qian Kaitai who was kneeling at her feet, "If I don't survive tomorrow, I will find someone to take you away tonight."
She has been arrogant from the plot activation to now, who is she afraid of
Before Shi Qing left Qian Kaitai's county office, he remembered something and said, "I know the exact amount of money for disaster relief better than you. If there is one piece missing—"
She laughed, stretched out her hand and flicked Yunzhi's sword hilt, "I'll cut your flesh and make it up!"
"..."
The flesh on Qian Kaitai's thigh immediately tightened.
Looking at the silver from Shiqing, Qian Kaitai didn't dare to touch it.
If it was normal, she would have to delay sending the money for half a month, but now she couldn't delay any longer.
Qian Kaitai was unwilling to do both sending money and relocating male relatives, and he felt angry in his heart.
When Shi Qing left, she entered Beijing to meet Lord Qian.
It was getting late, Mother Qian was meeting guests in the study, and when she heard that Qian Kaitai was coming, she asked her to stand at the door and talk.
"It's time again."
Compared with Shiju, her daughter Shiqing is obviously more troublesome.
She is like a flexible fish, she has to be involved in everything.
Now that the Qian family is restrained to this point, she can still catch Qian Kaitai.
Mother of Qian rubbed the teacup in her hand, her eyes darkened, "If you don't get rid of this person, it will be bad for you and me in the end."
After dealing with Qian Kaitai, Mother Qian looked at the chair diagonally opposite.
There was no lamp in the room, and a guest in a cloak was sitting on a chair with no fingers visible in the dim light.
Qian's mother said, "Qian Kaitai can't keep it. The moment Shiqing handed over the paper, the emperor didn't intend to keep her in the vicinity of Gyeonggi to continue serving as an official. The emperor is always on guard against the Qian family."
After Sun Qiran fell down, he allowed the eldest prince to act secretly, cutting off the branches and leaves that the Qian family wanted to spread out, forcing her to act in a low-key manner.
Looking at the meaning of the emperor now, it feels like supporting the Shi family to check and balance with her.
This is Shi Qing's second errand involving money.
If she is allowed to return to Beijing alive, it is really uncertain whether the vacancy in the household department belongs to her or Qian Huanhuan.
The man on the chair spoke slowly, "If you want to get rid of Shi Qing, you have to get rid of Yun Zhi beside her first."
If there is a change in things, erase the change and get everything back on track.
Mother Qian pondered for a moment, "I understand."
