The room was quiet.

Lin Yanchao knew that although he was the county magistrate of Zhe County, Li Zhixian was not able to handle affairs and asked Lin Yanchao to send him a subordinate. Therefore, Li Zhixian obeyed Sun Chengzong's advice and made Sun Chengzong's decision on all matters in the county.

This can be regarded as the first time that Sun Chengzong has done his own business.

Sun Chengzong said: "Now there is a deficit, which has implicated Futai, Magistrate Li, and Sun has really let you down. This deficit is regarded as Sun owing Futai. Sun resigns from his job to Dongweng. When he returns to his hometown in Hebei, he will definitely find a way to return the money to Dongweng."

Lin Yanchao said: "Money matters are still secondary. I will evaluate the project in Zhe County and discuss it with you. You will stay in the mansion to take care of your health during this period."

Sun Chengzong said: "Thank you for your kindness, but Sun really has no face to stay in the mansion. Now Sun has decided to leave, so I beg the mansion to agree to Sun's request."

Lin Yanchao lowered his head and took a sip of tea and thought to himself, could he really use the wrong person?

Let Zhang Liang, who is well-planned and wins thousands of miles away, do Han Xin's work?

After the first month, February is the month.

February is the time for all prefectures, prefectures and counties in Henan Province to develop the river industry again.

The disaster last year was quite serious, and Pan Jisun was in charge of the river channel again. Henan officials did not dare to neglect it and began to build river defense in January and February.

In order to supervise the local area, the new inspector of Henan went to the following governments to supervise the Hegong.

The inspector is only seventh rank, but the local prosecutor is an equal to the governor and reports directly to the emperor. Even the governor has to sit down with him when he sees him.

He succeeded Zeng Qianheng as the new inspector and was also a Jinshi in the fifth year of Wanli. Judging from his name, this person's parents were very foresighted.

Therefore, when he heard that Wang Xunzhang had arrived, Lin Yanchao could not help but faced a great enemy and greeted him in person halfway.

Lin Yanchao first greeted the patrol on the border of the prefecture and accompanied him to inspect.

The first stop of the inspection in Guide was placed in Zhe County, Guide Prefecture.

Lin Yanchao felt that it was very bad about the inspector of the Zhe County, because Zhe County had caused a deficit. Although he had not reported it yet, the inspector might have heard the news.

That's right, Lin Yanchao has money now, but he is in the treasury, but he can't get the place to pay for Zhe County.

The accounts of local prefectures and counties must be reviewed by the Ministry of Revenue and the origin must be clear. Now that Zhe County is in a deficit, Lin Yanchao can calm the accounts without saying a word, but the inspector suddenly came to Zhe County for inspection, which is difficult to hide from his eyes.

After arriving at the local area, County Magistrate Li set up a banquet to welcome them.

Later, Lin Yanchao lived at the inn, and Wang Xunzhang stayed in the procuratorate. Early the next morning, Wang Xunzhang took officials from both prefectures and counties to inspect the river engineering.

So everyone went out of the east gate first and inspected the river embankment east of the city.

The river embankment in the east of the city is built against the mountain, so when everyone inspected the river embankment, they almost had to walk a long way to go.

But County Magistrate Li had already made arrangements, but the embankment was already crowded with people, and the people from several nearby villages had flooded the embankment.

There are gongs and drums on the top and under the dike.

Dongdong!

Dongdong!

The drum sounds deafening.

Wang Xunbang smiled when he saw this scene. Someone handed him a cane and then stepped onto the ramp, while Lin Yanchao followed him closely.

Because it rained a few days ago, the hillside was a little slippery and I walked a muddy and dirt road, but I saw that the dike was full of people.

Lin Yanchao had just sighed, and Magistrate Li saw the people from afar and said, "Lin Qingtian is here!"

"That's right, it's Lin Qingtian."

"I've seen Master Qingtian."

"See the Lord of the Mansion!"

"Meet the Lord of the Mansion!"

With all the calls from afar, Lin Yanchao once again lamented that Li Zhixian had put in a lot of effort.

Wang Xunzhang couldn't help but compliment: "Lin Futai is very popular with the people in Guide."

Lin Yanchao was about to be modest, but he heard that Li Magistrate Li was excited and said to Wang Magistrate: "I reported to the court that the prefecture was the Tongzhi of the Futai, and later the prefecture came to the county for inspection many times, so many people recognized the prefecture."

After hearing this, Lin Yanchao suddenly realized that he thought that Magistrate Li was flattering, but it turned out that it was not.

Lin Yanchao looked at the people on the dike and felt moved and proud.

Even the governor Wang stopped and said to Lin Yanchao: "Lin Futai is so popular with the people, so I should have the wise men. Lin Futai invites me first, and I will attach it to my back!"

Of course, Lin Yanchao refused, so Wang Xunzhang had to forget it, but the people were calling louder along the way.

The prefectures and counties were all happy, and everyone had a bright face.

After finally coming from the people on both sides, Lin Yanchao and Wang Xunzhang arrived on the embankment. Looking around, they saw the river flowing back and the wind was calm.

The dams ahead, back and forth firmly tie the river water, but on the other side of the river, there are endless fields. At present, green seedlings are emerging from the fields, and the green and green look is refreshing.

Seeing this scene, Wang Xunzhang couldn't help but say: "There is no more scenery, which is more eye-catching than these endless crops and the undulating rivers. The river outside the embankment and the farming inside the embankment can kill two birds with one stone."

Lin Yanchao winked at Magistrate Li, and Magistrate Li said immediately: "Report to the courtyard, the intersection of the two rivers here points out that in the past, floods often flooded, flooded farmland and destroyed houses, and the people were already suffering from this. Now this dike is three miles long, which can prevent floods and block waves, and can also divert water to irrigate the farmland under the capital, which is a killing of two birds with one stone."

Wang Xunzhang was obviously satisfied and said: "How much money has it been repaired with such a solid embankment?"

However, Li Magistrate Li said with little confidence: "Originally, he used 2,273 taels when he was estimating the government, but later he used nearly 3,000 taels."

Wang Xunzhang obviously understood river engineering, and said immediately: "This three-mile long dike only costs 3,000 taels of silver, and it was replaced by other officials and could not be repaired."

"Lin Futai presided over such a project, so there is no need to say much about his political achievements, but as for Magistrate Li, he is also a capable minister!"

Lin Yanchao smiled without saying a word, while Li Magistrate Li said happily: "You dare not be a subordinate. This is because the government is well-educated on weekdays, and the subordinates are just acting on their own terms."

Later, the inspector Wang inspected several river workers with Lin Yanchao, Li Magistrate and others.

Then Wang Xunzhang and the officials went to the shed on the road to rest.

Wang Xunshou said at this time: "At the beginning of last year, Zhe County reported the estimation of 52,312 taels of silver from the government. After reporting to the vassal department, the government allocated 55,000 taels. At the end of last year, the government issued a 68,869 taels of silver from the government, with a total loss of 16,557 taels of silver, and all of them were recorded in the account."

After Wang Xunshun said that, the officials present looked ugly.

Lin Yanchao didn't say anything at that time.

But Wang Xungong paused and said solemnly: "In the past, although there were deficiencies in various prefectures in river management, there were few deficiencies in them. This matter is not a secret. I received anonymous letters when I was in my first term, which was about the deficit in Zhe County."

"Although this more than 10,000 taels of silver is not much, it is also a wealth of people. How can corrupt officials and corrupt officials be greedy? When I first received the gazette, I was extremely indignant and thought that the affairs of Zhe County should not be tolerated. Once it was found out, it must be severely punished. Therefore, this time, I inspected the various prefectures and came to Zhe County in person to check and check where the more than 10,000 taels were gone? Has the official fed his personal pocket?"

As an inspector, Lord Wang has the power to arrest officials under the sixth rank and below without asking for decree.

So after a few words from Wang Xun, except for Lin Yanchao, the officials present were shuddered.

But at this time, Wang Xunshou slowed down and smiled at everyone, "But I know that this matter needs to be practiced. Fortunately, I came to Zhe County to see it myself and walked around various places. I only realized that the reason why the river engineering in Zhe County was deficient was not that the officials were corrupt, nor that the officials dereliction of duty, but that you took the people as your thoughts and did the river engineering affairs very well."

After hearing this, the officials were overjoyed. This reversal came too suddenly.

"I have visited many prefectures and counties before, but no river worker can match your county. The court gave you ten taels of silver, but you did twenty taels of silver. This is the real result. The river embankment built by the river worker in Zhe County and the farmland that was silted, even if it exceeds the 100,000 taels, it is also necessary. After this, Zhe County can avoid river troubles once and for all, and the people will always be protected from floods. This is a virtue."

"So, the deficit of Zhe County will be reported to the court truthfully, so you don't have to worry."

Wang Xunzhang's words are resounding.

The officials present were all moved to tears. They suffered a lot after building river workers, but in the end the river workers cost overdue, they were all worried and afraid that the court would pursue the matter.

If you say you are wronged, who will be wronged?

But now Wang Xun patted the board and gave them justice.

Wang Xunbing said: "Minister Li, I have never heard of your name before, but it is really a big deal that is not expected. This year, I will write your name in the case of protection and recommend it to the court."

To be honest, Wang Xunzhang looked at the county magistrate Li, but he saw that he was in his fifties and looked mediocre and mediocre. It was hard to believe that such a big project was made by him, but who said he was the county magistrate?

The achievements of the Zhe County River Control are obvious to all, so Wang Xunzhang can only say that one should not behave like a person.

When Li Zhixian heard this, he was almost overjoyed and cried, "I thank you for your kindness in the court for your kindness."

Wang Xunzhang said to Lin Yanchao again: "From the small to see the big one, a Zhe County can tell that Lin's Mansion is in Guide's political achievements."

Lin Yanchao saw Li Zhixian’s excited look and shook his head and said, “It’s too good to be praised by the hospital. What’s the contribution to Lin?”

"Why should Lin Futai be modest? When we arrived in Henan, we have heard many officials praise your achievements in governing the river." Wang Xunwang said with a smile.
