The whole hall of the county government office was cleared. Officers holding killing clubs stood in two rows on both sides of the hall, staring nervously at the old man in official uniform in the high hall.
Sitting next to the old man in official uniform was a young girl.
The girl held the teacup in her hand, took a sip, and said slowly: "Master Gan, now that we have cleared up the matter, we have a chance to make meritorious deeds. We have just escaped from the gate of hell, so it is better to be wiser."
The old man sitting on the main seat is Gan Die who saved his life from Li Shang last night.
"Master Xianjia, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling to hand over the files, it's just that the files have always been in the hands of the chief registrar. In the early years, there were regulations in the official family. Local officials performed their duties and did not interfere with each other. After a few days, the household
The Ministry's examiner is about to come to the city to check the files. At this time in Kaifeng, both the subordinate officials and the chief clerk will lose their heads."
Gan Diao was sweating profusely and explained: "It's not that it can't be opened, it's that it can't be opened at this time. The government has regulations. The files are sealed every ten years. On the fifth day of the next year, officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs will come to collect and archive the files.
After sending it to Jinling to be stamped, you can read it at will."
Lin Yanli frowned slightly, put the tea back on the table, and said with a strange expression: "Is it really such a coincidence?"
Gan Diao wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand and said with a smile: "What a coincidence!"
Lin Yanli rubbed her cheeks and arched her eyebrows, "But I want to see it, what should I do?"
Gan Diao felt that the little girl in front of him was smiling evilly, and his heart suddenly beat, and he said tremblingly: "Master Immortal, you really can't look at it!"
Lin Yanli raised the corner of his mouth slightly, stretched out his index finger, tapped the edge of the table, and made a "click, click" sound. However, he didn't say anything, and just looked at him with a half-smile.
Gan Diao was stared at by her, and he felt even more frightened. He was sweating more and more on his forehead, his whole body was trembling, his teeth were chattering, and his breathing was a little faster.
"Master Immortal, please forgive me! I really can't make the final decision on this matter. If it's from ten years ago, it can be dismantled at will, but it has been sealed for nearly ten years. If you open it, you will lose a lot of heads!"
After a while, Gan Diao finally couldn't bear the pressure and fell to his knees on the ground to beg for mercy.
"Call me miss!"
"If Miss really wants to check the files, she can go to the Jinling Household Department to get them. The lower officials have serious faults and will die when they die, but the chief registrar, county magistrate, and district chief, these people have no faults!"
Lin Yanli held up her chin, let out a sigh of relief, and said with a hint of helplessness: "Okay, I will check after I arrive in Jinling for the past ten years, and you can bring over all the files related to the Qin Mansion from ten years ago."
Gan Diao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called the county government officials to go to Jiaku to retrieve the files.
By the time the officer brought the files, three cups of tea had been exchanged. During this period, Lin Yanli and the county magistrate had been chatting about daily life and everything, as if the two had known each other for many years.
The county magistrate, who had been waiting beside him, was sweating profusely. The wind occasionally blew in from the door and shivered from time to time, which made Li Zhujiu in the distance laugh.
After chatting about home affairs, Lin Yanli lazily glanced at the files on the table and said in a lower voice: "It seems that Mr. Gan really regards us as playful little girls. The Qin family started from Emperor Taizong of the Rouge Kingdom.
It has been standing in Yongzhou for more than eighty years, and you came here with thirty files to deceive us who are not familiar with the world?"
"Master Immortal..."
"Call me miss!"
"Miss, I don't know. Before Xiaguan took office, Jiaku passed through the water and most of the files had been burned. The thirty files on the table now are all records after Xiaguan took office."
Gan Diao explained with a wry smile.
"It's interesting. The Qin family is very clever!"
Lin Yanli praised him and opened the files one by one.
"Liu Er, a villager in Liuhua Village, sued the Qin family for appropriating land."
"Lu San from the east of the city sued the Qin family's servants for being a bad guy in the restaurant and not giving them any silver."
"Queen Cuihua of the People's Republic of China informed the Qin family's servant Zhang Shun that it is not polite to the daughter of the people."
"Lin from Hualiu Street sued Qin Jiao for having sex for free..."
I took a few casual glances and found that although most of them were trivial things, when people gather together, small things become big things.
In particular, there were several cases of manslaughter, all of which were caused by thieves who broke into the Qin Mansion and were eventually killed by the guards of the Qin Mansion. But the strange thing is that the intruders were all young women.
Why did these women break into the Qin Mansion without incident? It is quite interesting whether they are 'breaking into the Qin Mansion' or 'being snatched into the Qin Mansion'.
More than thirty volumes in five years, these are all on the surface, but how many are secretly unknown?
Lin Yanli put down the file with a smile and said with a smile: "Aristocratic families in the secular world live more elegantly than the immortal families in the mountains!"
Gan Diao looked at Lin Yanli's smiling face, and sweat soaked his back unknowingly.
Worldly news is transmitted slowly, and in recent years, he has heard a lot of rumors, especially when Lin Yanli took out the official family genealogy of the Thousand Demons Sect, which made him even more panic-stricken.
I'm afraid not only Yongzhou but also Jinling will change!
Qin Kunyu walked alone on the street, hot air coming out of his nose as he walked.
Apart from him, there was no other pedestrian on this street.
"Young lady will really give me a hard time. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. How can any wine shop be open for business on the first day of the Lunar New Year?"
He had no choice but to use the method Lin Yanli taught him, shouting and knocking on the door.
The street was deserted, and whenever someone yelled, the sound would become louder.
He followed the sign on the eaves to a wine shop and patted the door hard.
Soon, the door opened a crack, and a voice came from inside: "Who are you looking for? What's the matter?"
Qin Kunyu showed an honest smile and cupped his hands inward, "This is a wine shop, right? I'm here to buy wine."
"This year is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so the wine shop will not be open."
When the door closed, Qin Kunyu was confused and couldn't help complaining: "Look, I just said that no one sells bars on New Year's Day!"
Complaints are complaints, but you still have to buy drinks.
Qin Kunyu knocked on the door with all his strength and shouted: "I can add money!"
After a while, a cursing voice came from behind the door.
"Where did you come from? You are crazy about drinking. You are crazy about drinking. If you like drinking so much, why don't you prepare it before the beginning of the year? Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to buy wine on the first day of the new year?"
"Oh, Dad, if you don't sell it to others, don't scold them!"
The crack in the door widened, and a girl in a red cotton-padded jacket stretched out half of her body from behind the door, apologizing, "Brother, I'm sorry, my father is like this."
Qin Kunyu bent down slightly and whispered something in the girl's ear. The girl suddenly raised her head and said in surprise: "Brother, are you serious about what you said?"
Qin Kunyu nodded and said: "It's absolutely true, it goes against the will of heaven and strikes with thunder!"
"Brother, don't leave at the door. I'm going to help you carry the drinks!" The girl was filled with joy, closed the door and hurried to the warehouse.
Qin Kunyu pushed aside the snowflakes at the door and sat on the spot. Soon he heard another voice coming from behind the door.
"Girl, why are you carrying so much wine?"
"Dad, I want to sell wine!"
“We won’t open on New Year’s Day!”
"I want to open a business, and the extra silver I earn will be my lucky money!"
Qin Kunyu raised the corners of his mouth, turned his palm over, and a silver ingot fell into his palm.
The reason why the girl agreed was that Qin Kunyu paid an extra two taels of silver for each jar of wine as lucky money for the little girl.
It is said that money can make the devil push the millstone. Today, he also used money to push the little girl.
