Tong Baihu was knocked to the ground. The other silver-armored guards finally reacted, but before they could come forward, Shen Ao said preemptively, "Tong Baihu and below are guilty and want to threaten my life." , everyone has seen the sneak attack on this officer. He is responsible for his current results. Anyone who dares to help him is an accomplice, so you should think carefully."
The silver-armored guards who were about to step forward to demand justice for the centurion hesitated and stood still, not daring to move.
Everyone saw the scene where Tong Baihu took the initiative to attack Shen Ao just now. Although it is unclear why Tong Baihu was so impulsive, the facts are there and cannot be denied. A centurion took the initiative to attack a subordinate. It is a serious crime for an official in charge to commit murder. Now, if he stands on the side of Baihu, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
Shining Jia and the others did not dare to move rashly, and Shen Ao's expression immediately relaxed. Without even looking at Tong Baihu, who was lying on the ground and foaming at the mouth, he walked past him and came to where he was still standing. There in front of the stupid Yang Xun.
"Shen Ao, you...what are you going to do? Let me tell you, I..." Yang Xun was really frightened. He didn't expect that a sixteen-year-old boy could be so fierce, and he would do it at the drop of a hat. There is no room left for a hundred households.
Looking at the appearance of the fallen boy, I was afraid that even if he could stand up, his body would be fine, and his prestige would be lost. How could he have the dignity to lead hundreds of soldiers?
Such a thing could not happen to him. He did not want to lose his face. When he saw Shen Ao walking towards him, he felt cold in his heart and said with a trembling mouth.
"Bah!"
Before Yang Xun could finish speaking, a loud slap fell on Yang Xun's face. Red marks on his five fingers quickly appeared, and Yang Xun's mouth bled, and two of his teeth fell out.
"When you see a superior official who is not qualified for his official position, call him by his first name. Who taught you this rule? Shouldn't you be beaten?" Shen Ao slapped him with another stern voice. After the loud sound, he slapped him twice. A tooth fell out, but this was symmetrical. At least Yang Xun's face was red at this time.
"You..." After receiving two loud slaps, Yang Xun had already opened his eyes wide. He was dissatisfied and wanted to say something else.
"Bah!"
Another slap rang out, "You? Can the lower official call the upper official by you?"
Under questioning, Shen Ao felt very happy. He found that he seemed to like the feeling of slapping people.
After another slap, Yang Xun finally reacted. Although he was filled with hatred and wished Shen Ao would die, his words became much more honest, "My lord, the right servant is waiting in the wing. Please invite me." Sir, please come here."
After three slaps, Yang Xun became more honest. At least he didn't dare to call Shen Ao by his name, let alone use "you" instead.
"Oh? Is the minister waiting for me? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Shen Ao complained in his mouth, and also quickened his pace, passing Yang Xun and heading towards the main wing of the Jin Department. It gave people the impression that After hearing the call from the minister, I was very eager and respected the superior officer.
Yang Xun, who was left standing there, looked confused. When did Shen Ao respect Jiang Dai so much? Is this obviously acting? But at this time, his face was still burning, and he really didn't dare to do it. What he said was that he just hoped that Jiang Dai would reprimand Shen Ao severely, and it would be best to expel him from the Jin Department, so that he could vent his anger.
Shen Ao walked in front, followed by three students: Ning Feng, Ren An and Su Zhen. They were also shocked. They always thought that the teacher was only talented, but now it seems that he is really an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs. The most important thing is to take action. They always caught the opponent's sore leg, and the beating was in vain. This was what impressed them.
Yang Xun also came over, just behind Shen Ao and his group. He wanted to watch how Shen Ao was scolded by Jiang Dai to relieve his anger. But soon, his face became bitter again, and he When they saw Shen Ao walking out of the treasury compound, many officials from the Ministry of Finance were standing on both sides, respectfully calling the person in charge, and the respect seemed to come from the heart.
With a few slaps and kicks, Shen Ao has established his position in everyone's hearts. The name of the madman is worthy of his name. I am afraid that if Shen Ao can continue to stay in the Jin Ministry from today on, not only will the following officials not be If you find trouble with him, you will only listen to his orders and act based on his face.
This is another reason why Shen Ao took action. As a newbie, he didn't have much time to integrate the forces and people here. A head of the gold department was not what Shen Ao wanted in his heart. If it weren't for his Daqian Bank considered that he might not even accept this job.
If you don't want to spend time and energy to integrate the Jin Department and make everyone obey, the best way is to shock them with thunderous means. Now it seems that the obvious effect is good, at least on the surface, no one dares to disobey orders. , this is already a good result.
In the main wing of the Jin Department, Jiang Dai was still sitting here. He didn't know what happened outside the Jin Department's warehouse. At this time, he was still thinking about how to punish Shen Ao for failing to complete his responsibility of counting the acres, and how to convict the other party.
If Shen Ao knew the situation and took the initiative to hand in his resignation, he would not pursue it. After all, as a prince, it is better not to have any grudges. On the contrary, if Shen Ao does not know how to advance or retreat, then he will inevitably take action. Jinbu must have the power in his hands, so that he can secure his position as the right minister. Otherwise, it will only be an empty shelf, in name only.
Just when he was thinking about what choice Shen Ao would make after he issued the blame, there were footsteps outside the door, and then Shen Ao's figure quickly appeared in front of him. "Oh, I don't know if the minister is here. Please forgive me for not being able to greet you from far away."
Shen Ao lowered his head and spoke respectfully. After saying these words, he did not forget to look back at Yang Xun behind him, as if to tell him, learn from it and see how I treat Shangguan.
At this glance, Yang Xun almost spit out another mouthful of old blood. The last time Shen Ao saw Jiang Dai, he was not so respectful. This was obviously intentional. But he knew what was going on, but couldn't say anything. Could it be that Is it wrong for a subordinate to be more respectful to his superior?
Jiang Dai didn't know this, but he just thought that Shen Ao knew that he had not completed the task well, and this was his attitude of asking for forgiveness. This made him very happy, thinking that he knew how to advance and retreat, and he must have blamed him, and Shen Ao would know how to choose. This saves both parties a lot of trouble.
"Well, I also thought of official business and came suddenly. Chief Shen didn't know how to greet me. It's just that five days have passed, but I don't know what happened to the land statistics? Chief Shen, since we are As an official, you have to share the emperor's worries and serve the court. If you don't do your job well, you have no way to deliver missions and explanations. You said..."
Jiang Dai still wanted to talk endlessly, thinking that it would be better to lead the topic to resigning than to have everyone face each other. But just after he said a few words, Shen Ao's expression changed again and again. Then he took the initiative to interrupt Jiang Daizhi and said: "What? Didn't the Minister of Finance see the statistical results in the Jinbu newspaper?"
"Huh?" Jiang Dai, who was about to continue criticizing Shen Ao, looked stunned when he heard this. He had a premonition that things would not develop as he imagined.
Shen Ao ignored the change in Jiang Dai's expression, but turned around and asked Ning Feng in a stern tone: "Mr. Ning, didn't the statistical results come out yesterday? I told you to send them to the Vice Minister's Yamen early in the morning. , have you sent it?"
Ning Feng looked aggrieved when he was asked, "My lord, as you ordered, I came here early today. There are quite a few accounts, which were placed on the desk of the lord servant. I must have taken a look at the yamen. You can see it.”
"really?"
"really."
As Shen Ao and Ning Feng sang together, Jiang Dai's expression immediately became sad. If everything was as Shen Ao said, he would have seen it as long as he entered the yamen, but because of his I was anxious, because Yang Xun was waiting in front of me, so I didn't go to the Yamen first, but went directly to the Jin Department, and this is how the current oolong incident happened.
Of course Jiang Dai would not think that Shen Ao was lying to him. How could he be deceived by what he said in public? If he really did this, then if he turned around and asked if he was guilty, he would only get an additional penalty. From this point of view, it is I was impatient and didn't understand the situation.
Thinking that this was his responsibility, Jiang Dai also showed embarrassment on his face, and could only explain: "Oh, I am really too impatient. Since Director Shen has already counted the number of acres, This is of course for the best, well, I’ll take my leave.”
Jiang Dai didn't want to stay any longer, and he didn't want to stay too long. The feeling of letting others laugh was really not good. Then he got up, came excitedly with a dark face, and left in despair, leaving behind a heavy look. The four teachers and students stood there, looking at each other in fear at first, and then burst into laughter.
The laughter spread out without concealment. Jiang Dai hadn't completely walked away yet, and he could hear what sounded like laughter, but he had no intention of turning around and caring about it. Why, he had already lost face once, could he? Do you still want to show off your face and let others beat you?
Jiang Dai was in front and Yang Xun was behind. They came to the Hubu Yamen and entered the main room of the Right Minister. As expected, they saw a stack of nearly ten account books, large and small, placed on the table. Just as Ning Feng said It is said that the location is very obvious, and you can clearly see it after you go to the Yamen.
"Did they really do the statistics? How did they do it? Didn't you say they just went to get the land account books sent by the parties two days ago? It was only two days, how could it be possible?" Looking at these account books , Jiang Dai looked unbelieving.
