serving sentence

One afternoon, a sheriff in the royal capital was looking at a document.

This short piece was not enough for a piece of paper, and it was watched for half an hour.

During the reading period, the sheriff went out and then came in, smoked and drank water, occasionally chatted with his colleagues, and explained his work to his subordinates.

After finishing the work he should have done, the sheriff put himself in the chair with his stomach straightened, and took out his glasses in the drawer and put them on his ears.

"Xiang Du, tax evasion." The sheriff took a sip of water and looked at the locked young man opposite.

"Young man, think about whether there is anything to do at home. It's not a trivial matter to make up for this tax. You have to be like you, and you start to break the law at a young age, which is difficult for us to do."

When Xiang Du heard the word "illegal" and instinctively twitched, the handcuffs on his body made a series of sounds.

He hurriedly defended: "I didn't break the law."

"No illegal?" the sheriff sneered, "Then how do you explain this?"

He slapped the materials on the table: "I advise you to be honest. The residents of the royal capital are very honest. Anyone who evades taxes will be the ones from other places like you. Could it be that you mean we were wrong?"

"I don't mean that."

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing interesting."

"It seems you don't plan to cooperate."

The sheriff took the materials into his hands and was about to pronounce the sentence when a soldier outside escorted a person passing by.

The sheriff put Xiang Du's question aside and asked the soldier: "Who was he arrested?"

The soldier stopped and reported: "When fighting with someone on the street, the one was injured and hospitalized."

The sheriff looked at the person who was arrested and acted helpless and irritable: "Don't send people to it anymore. I don't know where to put this in my hand. How many people do you want me to review in a day?"

The soldier scratched his head: "Well?"

"If you let go, don't you just fight? Take it out for education." The sheriff waved his hand and turned to Xiang Du and said, "Okay, don't resist stubbornly, it really won't work..."

Before Xiang Du finished hearing this, he suddenly roared: "I didn't resist!"

The sheriff was stunned by the sudden roar, and the soldiers escorting the prisoners were also stunned.

They examined Xiang Du's unyielding spirit, which was clearly a naughty man.

The sheriff did not intend to continue talking nonsense, and stamped Xiang Du's materials and sentenced him: "Escape taxes, serve two months in prison, and after the sentence is over, the tax will be charged within five days. Come! Be imprisoned."

Two soldiers carrying rifles came in outside the door, and they took Xiang Du a trial room.

The man was taken away, and the sheriff shouted in annoyance: "What a bad luck!"

Xiang Du received the punishment he deserved because he did not get all the three Kuluns and began the most painful time for two months.

On the same day, Baymond invited the Chancellor of the Exchequer who was still in his post to have dinner.

After dinner, Becky ran back to the room and began to conceive her movements. The musical talisman was drilled through her head and was portrayed on it through the pen.

Her movement is about to be finished, and she plans to complete it and send it to her teacher.

At the dining table downstairs, servants were cleaning the dining table, and two people in important positions sat opposite each other.

Baymond said the purpose of the meal without any politeness: "Old lady, do you see if the money for this year is time to allocate?"

If he didn't mention it, the Chancellor of the Finance Department would almost forget about this matter. There were a lot of things recently and he had completely left it behind.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer spread his body and determined a very comfortable position. He said with a smile: "His Excellency Baymond, the tax revenue for this month is still counting, and it will take a few days before the end. You should be patient. Judging from the current statistics, tax revenue is probably the first priority in your area."

Baymond smiled dryly: "Who knows, I don't care much about these things. A long time ago, the wife was taking care of the trivial matters."

"Is that so? I would like to congratulate you, you have a virtuous wife, Mrs. Zun is much better than my family and don't care about anything at home."

"Some things are far more important than housework. I still envy you very much. Oh, wait a moment."

Baymond left his seat and went out. When he came back, he was holding a box of tobacco in his hand. He returned to the seat and said, "This is tobacco from Taihui Kingdom, and it was sent by the messenger from Taihui Kingdom. I have tasted it and it tastes good."

The Chancellor of the Finance Department felt uncomfortable when he saw this box of tobacco, but he didn't have it anyway.

He took the box and opened it, his eyes were not placed on the tobacco, and he faced Baymond and said, "I haven't sucked it for a long time, and I can't stand it. I'm almost at the age of retirement. When it comes to retirement, I feel uncomfortable."

“Sorry?”

"Yes, there is no successor. Don't look at my huge family, but there is no one that makes people worry-free." The Chancellor narrowed his eyes slightly, "The most annoying thing is my youngest son, who knows to fiddle with some toys all day long."

Baymond looked at the Chancellor of the Exchequer and recalled who the so-called youngest son was.

"Fortunately, my grandsons are okay, but they are not interested in my work. My eldest grandson also said that he is willing to follow you, Mr. Baymont."

"Is there such a thing?" Baymond was overjoyed, "Of course it can. It happens that I am too busy with work here and I need someone to share the burden. If you are your descendants, you will be a descendant of a famous family and you will never be able to ask for it."

The Chancellor of the Finance Department shook his head: "That's so troublesome. I don't want to care about this matter. Children do whatever they like, and they all have their own ideas."

"Old lady, I still think that sharing your majesty's worries is the most important thing."

"That's natural. I'll ask again when I go back. It's just that I'm too troubled. You arranged a job for my grandson, and I'm smoking your good tobacco, which I can't get away with."

"You can't say that." Baymond was already ecstatic. "I just need talents here, and it's not a problem at all. I want to thank the old lady for your help. It's just a box of tobacco, and I still have it here."

The Chancellor's mouth twitched, and looked at the tobacco in his hand, thinking about it and kicked it.

He suppressed his sadness and rolled the cigarette in detail while chatting about other topics: "His Excellency Baymond, you are busy with your business and may not know some things. I heard from others that the Guards stationed in the valley have achieved fruitful results in recent times and have basically cleared Minba."

"Is that so? That's really good news. Old lady, I also heard that this child is going to get married, right?"

Hearing this, the Minister of Finance was proud from the bottom of his heart. He showed an indifferent look and said: "For children, they can get married if they want to get married. What does it have to do with me, the old man? On the contrary, you have to calculate your life and be a grandpa."

Baymond suddenly felt lost. After thinking for a moment, he asked a question: "Is it so fast?"

At this time, Baymond's wife pushed the door and held the fruit plate in her hand. She put the fruit plate on the table and said with a little reproach: "No, a workaholic like you has a different time than us, and you don't count. When is the two children married? Our daughters were pregnant before they got married."

Bei Meng's face suddenly became gloomy and she turned out all the old accounts: "Don't talk about this, if it weren't for this, our son-in-law would be Mr. Yu Lian."

"Stop! I don't care what you think in your heart, especially in front of the child in the future, I will never say this." Mrs. Bemon was very unhappy, "Besides, what's wrong with Xiao Pu? I think that child is pretty good. Oh, it's time to go to the valley to see it. I must be there on the day my daughter was about to give birth, otherwise I'm afraid that the child will not be able to stand it."

The Minister of Finance looked at the monogamous couple with a smile, and he said, "I should go there. It happened that my youngest son and his family were going to go there too, and there was a company on the way."

This said to Mrs. Bemon's heart, and she quickly talked about the matter with the Chancellor of the Exchequer. She had a very eager chat and completely forgot about the dinner. The day she hurriedly took Becky away in front of the Chancellor.
