Knowing that Magistrate Su was coming, County Magistrate Lin sighed with a headache, but he had to see him.

"Your humble servant greets you, sir." County Magistrate Lin saluted carefully, "I wonder why you came here in person today? If you have anything to say, just pass it on to me."

"What did you do? Did you allow the errand shops to set up stalls at the back doors of the various mansions?" Magistrate Su said coldly.

"Yes." County Magistrate Lin nodded.

"You are so brave, how dare you agree to such a thing? Setting up their registration points at the back doors of various mansions, what a mess!" Magistrate Su said coldly, "You ask them to withdraw immediately!"

"Sir, I dare not." County Magistrate Lin said.

Magistrate Su's expression eased a little, thinking that County Magistrate Lin was afraid because of his reprimand.

Unexpectedly, County Magistrate Lin said again: "It's just that General Shang personally came to tell me to do this matter."

General Shang, his rank is higher than yours!

"And they explained that the errand shop is for the livelihood of the wounded soldiers, so..." County Magistrate Lin said in embarrassment, "I dare not ask, but I also dare to guess that Bi Da's errands must have benefited from the army. Otherwise, how dare I use so many wounded soldiers?"

"Therefore, I dare not disagree." County Magistrate Lin said, "Moreover, I heard today that even the back door of General Li's mansion has a registration point for Bi Da's errands."

The General's Mansion doesn't mind, so why do you mind?

"Does this mean... even the General's Mansion knows about this matter and agrees to it?" County Magistrate Lin said, lowering his head and not daring to look up.

I thought to myself, why don't you go to the General's Mansion to talk about it?

Su Zhifu: "..."

No wonder County Magistrate Lin is so fearless, it turns out that he relies on General Li!

Su Zhifu sneered. Li Huailin will return to the army sooner or later, and he can't stay in Chong'an City forever. County

Magistrate Lin never thought that once Li Huailin left, he would still have to work under him as the prefect.

"Then Li Mumu, the registration point is set up at the back door of your yamen!" Magistrate Su said coldly, "You don't care?"

What's the difference between this and being stepped on and shitted on?

To some extent, County Magistrate Lin is also a capable person who can swallow his pride.

At this time, he bowed again and said, "The yamen runners work hard in the yamen on weekdays, and it's not easy for them to move around freely. It's good to have someone to buy some things for them. They can register when they go out the back door, and they don't need to walk far, which makes it easier to control them."

"Speaking of which, it's really convenient for the errand shop to set up the registration point at the back door." County Magistrate Lin said. Magistrate Su

: "..."

At this time, Butler Sun hurried in, saluted County Magistrate Lin first, and then whispered in Magistrate Su's ear: "Sir, the imperial edict has arrived at the mansion."

"What?" Magistrate Su turned his head and his eyes lit up.

Could it be that the reward came down?

Although the people who pretended to be wounded soldiers that Su Zhier found before were found out.

But he just pretended not to know, after all, his original intention was good.

Someone pretended to be a wounded soldier, and he was also deceived.

He wanted to do something for the wounded soldiers, and the wise people of the time would understand and would not blame him for the crimes of those who pretended to be wounded soldiers.

County Magistrate Lin did not know the inside story, nor did he hear what Butler Sun said.

He just saw that after hearing what Butler Sun said, there was a moment of joy on the face of Prefect Su that he could not hide.

County Magistrate Lin muttered in his heart, what good thing did Prefect Su encounter?

Prefect Su then said to County Magistrate Lin: "I have something important to do, the registration point, let's talk about it later."

Prefect Su and Butler Sun hurriedly left and returned to the Su Mansion.

As soon as he entered the gate of the Su Mansion, he saw the eunuchs sent by the court waiting in the courtyard.

Prefect Su hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I was unable to greet you in the mansion, and kept you waiting for a long time."

Then he scolded Mrs. Su, "Why let you wait in the courtyard? Why don't you invite him in and serve tea and snacks?"

Mrs. Su looked bitter. She did invite him, but he refused to go in.

Seeing that Governor Su was so expectant and not nervous at all, Madam Su couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

Did she think wrong?

Seeing the serious expressions of the eunuchs, who looked like they didn't want to have a good relationship with them, Madam Su thought they were here with bad intentions.

She was afraid that the content of the imperial edict was not good.

But Governor Su... didn't seem to have such worries at all.

Madam Su wanted to tell Governor Su what she was thinking, but the reactions of these eunuchs were really strange.

Not only did they not enter the house, but she secretly stuffed her purse with them, but they didn't accept it. They had a stern face and looked like they were doing business.

How could these eunuchs not be greedy for money?

"No need." The leading eunuch said, "After I announce the edict, I will leave immediately and return to Beijing to report to His Majesty."

"Yes." Governor Su was also a little strange at this time.

The attitude of this eunuch seemed to be wrong.

"Su Guangcheng accepts the edict!" The eunuch opened the imperial edict and said loudly.

Everyone in the yard knelt down together.

The eunuch said, "The prefect of Chong'an, Su Guangcheng, set up a tent to distribute porridge, and asked people to pretend to be wounded soldiers, fabricate achievements, and deceive his superiors and subordinates. He will be fined ten months' salary. This is the imperial decree!"

Su Guangcheng knelt on the ground. It was so cold, but he was sweating all over.

His palms were pressed against the cold ground, and he was still unaware that they were red from the cold. His fingertips were shaking all the time. No matter how cold the weather was, it couldn't be colder than the chill in his heart.

"Lord Su, please accept the imperial decree." The eunuch's sharp voice seemed particularly cold at this moment.

"Your Majesty... accept the imperial decree..." Prefect Su was still kneeling, not daring to raise his head, and raised his hands.

Then, the imperial decree fell into his hands.

Prefect Su dared to get up, his body still shaking.

At this moment, he was still very polite and said, "I will ask someone to clean up the side rooms. The eunuchs must have been very tired on the road. Why don't you rest in the mansion for a day before going back?"

The eunuch still said with a stern face, "No, I have to go back and report."

He knew the saint's evaluation of this prefect.

Although this matter did not cause him to be demoted, this prefect Su had already lost the favor in front of the saint.

In this case, he did not plan to get too close to the prefect. When

Prefect Su saw the eunuch's attitude, he felt cold in his heart, and hurriedly secretly stuffed a purse into the eunuch's hand. It looked very thin.

But the eunuch touched it and found that there were several thin papers inside.

They were all silver bills.

The eunuch quickly hid the purse in his sleeve. Prefect Su was slightly relieved when he saw this, and then he said: "Even if the eunuch is in a hurry to go back and report, let me bring you some special food from Chong'an. It is also good to eat on the way."

The eunuch looked at him for a while before nodding, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, sir." Prefect

Su hurriedly asked people to prepare, and then pulled the eunuch and said: "The eunuchs should go to the hall to rest first. Even if you are in a hurry to go back, you can rest for a while."
