Chapter 71 Ginger is old and spicy (2)

"Is he really saying that?" Wei Liang, who had a little joy on his face, turned his face solemn again after hearing Li Ling's remarks. Seeing that Li Ling was also nodding seriously, he rubbed his forehead with his hands and fell into deep thought again.

Li Ling was not very surprised, and stood aside with his hands down, waiting for the magistrate of Wei to think clearly. He could understand the other party's reaction. He even thought about it in the middle of the night after listening to Wang He's words, and it was hard to make a conclusion, let alone this matter was more important to Wei Liang.

However, Wei Liang's silence had been a bit too long and he didn't speak for a long time, which made Li Ling a little impatient. While his mental activities were in a state of mind, he even began to guess why he looked in a good mood today. You know, he saw that the magistrate of Wei had a confused look on his face. Obviously, he hadn't made up his mind after one night. Did he make him make up his mind after one night?

This confusion was quickly answered. The door of the void was gently pushed open, and a familiar figure walked in. It was Cao Jin and Master Cao. Li Ling was stunned for a moment: "When did Mr. Cao come back?" It was obvious that Wei Liang was in a better mood because of Cao Jin's return.

"Oh, I'm the county government that I returned last night." Cao Jin smiled and saw Wei Magistrate who frowned and looked up: "Have you encountered any difficulties again?"

Wei Liang had no intention of hiding it in front of these two confidants. He immediately told what Li Ling had just mentioned, and then frowned and said, "I really can't confirm whether he should believe his words. In addition, Mr. Cao, do you think the most appropriate way to deal with the Zhuang Hong case?"

"Didn't the boss make up his mind yesterday?" Cao Jin said with a smile, "The reason why there is no turning back is the reason for the arrow to be fired, the boss should be very clear, right? After all, can he be let go? Then, what prestige does the boss have in the county?"

Wei Liang was speechless after a series of questions, and he exhaled for a while: "But how should we deal with the matter of donating jute?"

"If the boss asks me, then the original answer will be the answer. I will report it truthfully, and there is no need to worry about it."

"But this matter involves several senior officials in the court. Once it is revealed, they will offend them all to death. Before I came here to take office, the teacher always taught me to be stable first and not to make enemies with others..."

"Have you not figured it out yet? Things are priorities. In the officialdom, you don't say you can't offend others. Sometimes, for your own future and your ideals, you don't have to look forward to others. In this way, you can achieve success and be valued by the court!"

Cao Jin sighed and looked at Wei Liang who was still hesitating and said, "Boss, why did I not return until yesterday?"

"Isn't it because I need to rest for a rest when I get sick at home?" Wei Zhixian said a little strangely, why did he suddenly break the topic?

"I dare not hide it from my boss. In fact, I returned to Jiangcheng County as early as the Spring Festival, just asking my family to let them reply in this way. And I myself have been staying in the inn..."

"This... Mr. Cao, where are you singing?" Wei Liang looked surprised. He and his helper thought tank, who had been waiting for many days, was watching the show not far away? Even Li Ling was surprised and couldn't understand what the old man was selling.

Cao Jin smiled bitterly: "Because I am waiting for you to make a decision, if you don't force you, you will never take this step. In fact, before the Chinese New Year, I had urged you several times to completely judge the Zhuang Hong case..."

"You have also seen the situation in the yamen at that time. Those people are obstructing them in every way. I can't understand the case." Wei Liang's grievance was exchanged for Cao Jin's decisive shaking his head: "No, this is just an excuse for the boss to be unintentional to retrial. With the identity of the boss and the momentum that he was at the forefront of the people at that time, if you really insist on judging this, they would not dare to refuse! But the boss missed such a good opportunity in vain."

Wei Liang thought about it carefully and his face turned red. What the other party said was really reasonable. Then he sighed and said, "So you are reluctant to come back for a long time. I am excluded from the county government and my prestige is gradually losing?"

"The boss is forgiven for his crime. The situation is urgent. You must use strong medicine to make up your mind. Of course, thanks to Li Ling's assistance, he finally really grasped the power of the county government. That's why the boss dared to retrial Zhuang Hong yesterday, and I also chose to return yesterday."

Li Ling was stunned when he heard this, good guy, he said, "Good guy," as an aide, Cao Jin is too brave. This means to set the boss on fire. According to his words, if Wei Liang did not interrogate Zhuang Hong again yesterday, he would not have planned to show up.

However, it can also be seen from this that the relationship between the master and the servants of the Wei, Liang and Cao Jin was somewhat subtle. Obviously, Cao Jin, who was originally a juren and had served as an aide to a high-ranking official, may not take this young county magistrate too seriously, at least he was not afraid of the other party driving him away from him.

Sure enough, after a moment of stunned silence, Wei Liang just smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Sir, why bother? Just say something directly. How can I not listen to it?"

Cao Jin apologized again, but Li Ling felt some profound meanings. Obviously, only by letting Wei Liang suffer can he truly understand Cao Jin's pains and the correctness of his suggestions.

However, Wei Liang's confusion was not yet resolved, and he said: "Will I really convict Zhuang Hong from all means to commit suicide and impose the charge of donating jute on him? But in this way, wouldn't it be a big blow to many people?"

"Don't the boss understand yet? It is impossible for him to really make friends with everyone in the officialdom, and no one can do this. What we can choose is to offend people while gaining more benefits, gain fame and profit, and make him afraid to attack at least for a short time. This is enough.

"Take this case as an example, the boss may indeed offend a few senior officials who are still in office, but hasn't he completely gained a foothold in the county government? Eliminating Zhuang Hong and suppressing everyone in the government government means that he can really hold the benefits in his hands.

"As for the name, in addition to making the boss famous in this county, I thought I could also use this matter to gain a good reputation for the boss who is impartial and not afraid of the powerful! As long as the next judgment is written beautifully, with a high-level idea, and can be handed over to a higher yamen, I would not be afraid of others making interference from it, and naturally this name will be available!

"Last point, if the boss is still worried that the officials will care about it, he actually thinks them too much. Whether it is the doctor of the six ministry or the local governor, they are of great power, and they are far from being able to compete with a small seventh-rank county magistrate of the boss. But as long as the donation of the jute is really implemented, they are still too busy to take revenge, let alone complaints and revenge. Besides, you are not a completely unfounded person. As long as you are upright, they will naturally not be able to do anything to you."

After saying this, not only Wei Liang, but also Li Ling were also motivated, and he was much more courageous. The reason is indeed true. There are so many intrigues in the officialdom. Who can really not make grudges with others? So only looking at interests and not asking about the level of the situation is the correct way to fight.

At this moment, Cao Jin's old figure seemed tall in Li Ling's eyes. He had really underestimated this master before. The same thing, Jiang, it's still so hot.

Feeling the change in Wei Liang's mind, Cao Jin felt more at ease and said, "Actually, I was also a little worried, but I was afraid that the government office might make a slight hindrance and insisted on retrialing the case or suppressing it completely. But now, with Wang He's concern mentioned by Li Ling, even this last bit of worry no longer exists.

"The killing move that can keep Wang He in his hands must be very powerful, at least one life. Once this starts, there will inevitably be a miser in the county town who is willing to stand up and ask the boss to avenge him. As long as such an injustice is true and the number is enough, it will naturally be enough to make Zhuang Hong unable to recover! Don't talk about the government office at that time, even the governor's office, the imperial court will not dare to shelter him anymore.

"With such a serious case, the corresponding jute donation case will inevitably attract more attention. After the court's strict investigation, those senior officials will be unable to protect themselves. Maybe they don't have to borrow someone to take action to eliminate future troubles. Boss, if you really miss such a great opportunity, that is your biggest loss!"

The analysis of the whole story has been summarized clearly. The expression on Wei Liang's face has also changed with this statement. At the end, he was so excited that he was a little red and he nodded and brimmed his head and flew: "You are right. It's because I think it's too complicated. It's really hard to achieve great things! This time, this time, according to you... what you mean, I want to investigate these cases to the end. No matter what power he has behind Zhuang Hong, no matter which senior official he will offend, I, Wei Liang, will bear it on my shoulders and will never regret it!"

"I will definitely help my boss and win this game!"

"I must do my best to help the adults give me justice to the people of Jiangcheng!"

The two of them responded one after another, and then the three of them took a look at each other and burst into laughter.

It was not until this time that the knot of the county magistrate Wei was completely untied, and he could finally give it a try and truly kill the Zhuang Hong case!

After Li Ling walked out of the public housing with encouragement, he was blown by the early spring wind that was still a little cold, and then he quickly calmed down. Then, he sighed in his heart. He had gained some knowledge in the past two days. Those old foxes in the officialdom were really cunning one by one. Compared to them, whether it was himself or the magistrate of Wei, it was still too simple.
