Everyone in the world knows that Kaifeng Prefecture is a high-end, and everyone in the world knows that Kaifeng Prefecture's errands are the most difficult to handle.

Various forces in Bianliang City have developed for more than a hundred years and are intricate. No one knows who will involve whom they move.

Therefore, most of the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture served as monks and clocks for a day, and after a term of office, they immediately left after getting their qualifications.

Like Bao Zheng, there is indeed nothing in a thousand.

Wang Xiao is still named in Sitianjian, but he doesn’t have to go to work, just get his salary every month.

The emperor doesn’t have to follow him every day for the time being, that job is an extra chance to meet the saints directly.

For Wang Xiao, the most important task now is to be a promoter in Kaifeng Prefecture.

Kaifeng Prefecture is very large and takes charge of all administrative, criminal, people's livelihood, taxes, arrests and other matters in Bianliang City.

This is the largest and most prominent capital in the world.

The boss of this yamen is the prefect of Kaifeng, usually the title of the crown prince. There are also the title of the ministers of the current dynasty.

People like Kou Zhun, Ouyang Xiu, Fan Zhongyan and others have all been famous.

Those who work like Bao Zheng usually have the title of Quan Zhi Kaifeng Prefecture affairs, which is simply a temporary assignment.

Further down, there are judges who assist the prefect in charge of administration, six cadres in charge of taxes and livelihood, some courts in charge of education, some officials in charge of criminal prison arrest, etc.

Zhao Xu has no prince yet. After Lu Dafang left office, he thought about letting Zhang Dun take the title.

But Wang Xiao and Zhang Dun had a dirty trick. Now he has arrived in Kaifeng Prefecture to do business, so the matter has been put on hold.

In other words, there is no prefecture in Kaifeng Prefecture now, and the biggest one is the judge.

This judge was very sensible and had been ill for many years and was experiencing the people's sentiments in three or two houses. He was determined to pass the term of office.

All ministries and cadres are in charge of their own affairs.

The former prosecutor offended the relatives of nobles in the palace while handling the case and was sent to a remote military prefecture.

Wang Xiao came to take over, and many of the constables made private bets about how long this person could be beaten down.

This is also impossible, this location is too dangerous.

On the first day of Wang Xiao's tenure, no one came to beat the drums and complained. He did not call on his subordinates to the top squad to speak, and sat quietly in his room and looked through various files over the years.

When the time comes, Wang Xiao invited everyone from his subordinates to come and gather.

Fortunately, on the first day of the new official's tenure, no one ran away early without giving him face, and those with some identity came to his yard to wait.

"Everyone." Wang Xiao said with a smile, "I'll be familiar with it on the first day of today. I'll set a seat at the Yang Family Restaurant to enjoy the sun and have a few drinks together."

Shangguan treats guests to dinner, this face must be given.

A large group of people came to the Yang family’s wine shop not far from Kaifeng Prefecture. After arriving, they found that Wang Xiao had actually wrapped all the upper and lower floors.

"Sir, really rich."

Everyone was envious. This was not something that could be arranged by a few or dozens of people.

When you drink and drink, the wine and food are fragrant.

Our tradition is the wine table culture. When we drink vigorously, the atmosphere will naturally become warm.

Everyone lined up to toast Wang Xiao, and they blushed their faces and patted their chests, saying that the Promoter had any instructions, and that they would go through fire and water without hesitation.

Wang Xiao was deeply suspicious of their statement, but he had a relaxed smile on his face and would not refuse anyone to toast.

The most direct place to understand people's character is at the wine table.

Wang Xiao was observing while drinking, and joked from time to time. He had a rough understanding of which of these people was a slick, which was a villain, which was depressed and unsuccessful, and which was really trying to do things.

Everyone's impression of Wang Xiao also changed from a Taoist man who was said to be a great master and could peek at the secrets of heaven to a rich man who was generous and spoke nicely.

After the banquet, Wang Xiao instructed the store to give everyone a food box.

It contains wine, drinks, dishes and snacks, and they are asked to take them home to try it out for their families.

The scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty were indeed not short of money, but the past fewer officials who worked as copywriting and administration in the yamen had more money.

Those who are the head of the squad can indeed get a lot of money. But the yamen runners below are divided into three melons and two dates.

The living expenses in Bianliang City are not low, and if the family has a large population, the expenses are also high. It is also very considerate to be able to make a delicious meal of takeaway.

Amid the praises of everyone, this day has passed.

Everyone thought that Wang Xiao was also a mixed term, but they didn't expect that Wang Xiao would gather them again on the morning of the next morning.

"Here." Wang Xiao pointed to the thick copy on the table in front of him, "It is the case file of the person who has not yet been convicted in the prison. I looked through it yesterday and there were many cases with many doubts."

If you want to be qualified to influence the people's livelihood policies of the Song Dynasty, Wang Xiao's current official position is still far from that.

Qualification and age are huge obstacles, but Wang Xiao is ready to take a shortcut.

That is reputation.

When a reputation is high enough, qualifications and age are not a big obstacle.

When I came to Kaifeng Prefecture, what was the fastest way to improve my fame? Of course, I was to take action against the royal relatives and noble ministers.

Resolving neighborhood disputes all day long, looking for pigs and cows, can you have a reputation?

He looked through the file yesterday and started by selecting the right target.

Without the kindness of the banquet last night, Wang Xiao took out a stack of files and took a picture in front of him, "Especially this, the case of Shen Ji fighting someone seriously in Yunliu Lane in the east of the city."

"Shen Ji himself had many fractures on his body, and he couldn't even stand up. Such a person could even injure more than a dozen strong men and rob more than a hundred stagnant of money. Do you all think I'm a fool?"

In the unspeakable silence, someone stepped forward and whispered, "Sir..."

"Didn't have eaten in the morning? Let it be louder! Let everyone hear it!"

The man shuddered and his scalp was numb. But facing Wang Xiao's slightly cold gaze, he had to bite the bullet and say loudly, "Sir, this matter is different!"

"If the inside story is not the inside story, I will naturally check it out clearly. All the people who handle this case will stand up for me."

Several minor officials and the head of the captain walked out carefully.

Wang Xiao waved his hand and said, "Closed them in the class room first. After I investigated the case in detail, I will give you an explanation. If there is really something wronged, I will give you an explanation!"

All the people who are hang out in Kaifeng Mansion are human spirits, so these people still don’t understand that Wang Xiao wants to establish his authority.

Shen Ji's case was obvious at a glance. He couldn't pay it back after borrowing the seal money, and was injured and snatched away his family's wealth. Then he bit him back and injured others.

As for the reason, it is because the person who puts the money can't afford to offend him.

The Song Dynasty allowed the placement of sealed coins. There were special institutions called Jiaoziwu and Huiziwu. The private one was called Qianyinshu.

The reason why Chen Ji's case is called an unjust case is that he was forced to borrow money from seals.

As a result, because he couldn't pay it back, he was beaten seriously injured and threw himself into prison. His house in the city was stolen, and his parents were also angry to death.

That is, he was young and still breathing a sigh of relief in his heart. He kept carrying it and never died, otherwise he would not find a place to seek justice.

Wang Xiao ordered someone to carry Chen Ji over and asked him just one sentence, "Do you want to be wronged?"

Chen Ji, who was breathing a sigh of relief, opened his red eyes and shouted with all his might, "Injustice!"

If someone calls for justice, this matter can continue.

Wang Xiao ordered someone to find a doctor to treat Chen Ji's injuries, and then arranged a captain to go to the Qiangui shop to call someone to come and confront him.

However, when the captain came back, no one brought him here.

"What's going on?"

The headmaster hummed and said, "Sir, the young one has gone. People say the case has been settled and they won't come."

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "If someone can't say you can't come, you're back?"

The headmaster said carefully, "Sir, I'm for your own good. That shop has a very unusual background."

Wang Xiao smiled and nodded, "I'm sorry."

Before the captain could say anything, Wang Xiao had already called out to the left and right, "Take him down and hit twenty boards."

"Sir, I'm so unfair."

It is useless to shout for justice. He is just a minor official and has no power to resist the referee.

The two men stepped forward and made arrangements and started fighting.

After the fight, Wang Xiao said lightly, "He will beat another twenty more, and these two fake fights will be forty each."

Playing fun in front of Wang Xiao is a typical example of showing off.

He didn't know what he had, and it was ridiculous to play such tricks with him.

These two yamen runners looked like they were beaten hard, but in fact they were all flower jobs made by years of experience, which hurt the surface but not the inside.

But I didn't expect that Wang Xiao would see through it at first sight.

No one dares to fake it now.

If you play with vain again, it is not saving people, but harming people by putting yourself in it.

After the actual battle was over, Wang Xiao stood up and left Kaifeng Mansion with dozens of fast-track yamen runners, heading towards Zhangji Qiangui Shop.
