Chapter 262 The Way of Being an Official

"I'm just discussing with you how to become an official." Su Du saluted the magistrate again. The magistrate's cheeks turned red with anger: "You are trying to manipulate me in the way of being an official."

"I don't dare to lower my rank." Su Du was neither humble nor arrogant, but he said to the prefect: "Your Excellency is the parent of this place, and your Excellency is the biggest official in this place."

Wang Shangshu retired to his hometown. Although he had a distinguished status, he no longer had real power. The local officials respected him out of friendship with the same officials. If Wang Shangshu acted tyrannically, local officials in the fish and meat village could naturally punish him.

When the prefect heard this, his expression suddenly became ugly: "You were born into a distinguished family, how could you know the sufferings of people like us?"

"Your Excellency is naturally worried about the disciples of Lord Shangshu, but now you are doing it for the reputation of Lord Shangshu. If Lord Shangshu allows the wealthy slaves to cause trouble, it will be the reputation of Lord Shangshu that will be damaged." Su Du Slowly speaking, these words made the magistrate's expression change. Su Du lowered his eyes, knowing that he had spoken to the magistrate's mind.

After a while, the prefect sighed: "What you said makes sense. In that case, let's arrest the person first." After saying that, the prefect said to Su Du: "It's just that this case must be completed. .”

"You will live up to your destiny!" Su Du saluted to the magistrate. The magistrate looked at Su Du's back without loosening his brows, hoping that this matter would not implicate him.

Manager Wang of the Shangshu Mansion was given a surname by Wang Shangshu. In recent years, he has done many evil things relying on the reputation of the Shangshu Mansion. But he had always served Wang Shangshu carefully, so no one dared to serve Wang Shangshu.

The minister spoke ill of him in front of him, and no one even went to the Yamen to sue him.

He was still at his home that day. He had just finished breakfast and was about to go inside to wait on him when he saw a group of government servants coming in like wolves and tigers. Manager Wang couldn't help but frown, and said to these government officials: "Are you going to the wrong place? Do you know where I am?"

"Of course I do." The government officials knew the identity of Manager Wang, so they did not directly lock him up like others. Instead, they stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists: "This is the ticket."

Card ticket? When other people saw the ticket, they would be so scared that they would pee and give up. When Manager Wang saw the ticket, he reached out and pulled it over and tore it up: "What is this, and it's also delivered to me?"

"Since you are unwilling to follow the government officials with their tickets, I am here and want you to leave. Do you want to leave?" Su Du's voice sounded, and Manager Wang looked at Su Du in official uniform. , only sneered: "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Mr. Su."

"That day, you killed someone by the river, and someone saw it with your own eyes. Follow me back to the Yamen." Su Du's words only made Manager Wang sneer: "What a joke, who are you, you dare to come and get me."

Su Du knew that these wealthy slaves were domineering, but Su Du didn't expect that the wealthy slaves outside were so outrageous compared to the wealthy slaves in the capital. Su Du couldn't help but frowned: "So, you don't want to come with me? "

"Only you, a sixth-grade general judge, go to see our master, and you don't even have a seat, and you dare to come and take me." Manager Wang said, dismissing Su Du's hand contemptuously, Su Du stretched out his hand, and strangled him. He grabbed Manager Wang's neck and said, "Then let's see if I dare." Manager Wang didn't expect Su

Du Hui suddenly changed his face and was choked speechless. Su Du had already shouted: "Here comes someone."

The yamen officer hurriedly stepped forward and locked up Manager Wang. Su Du said coldly: "You escort him and beat the gong on the street, saying that you have arrested the person."

The government officials responded in unison, and Steward Wang's expression immediately changed. He knew that Su Du had come up with such a way to humiliate him because Su Du was not afraid of Wang Shangshu, so Steward Wang shouted loudly: "Don't even think about it. Doesn’t this official want to be an official anymore?”

"It's not up to you whether you want to be my official or not." Su Du only said this. Manager Wang still wanted to shout, but was blocked by the yamen servant. After his mouth was blocked, the yamen servant He said to Su Du: "Mr. Su, we have not liked people for a long time."

Manager Wang wanted to say that they farted, but his mouth was blocked and he couldn't say anything. Manager Wang could only shout, but couldn't say anything else.

The government officials escorted Manager Wang, beating gongs and shouting loudly on the street, and countless people immediately gathered around to watch. But Su Du did not follow the government officials. He turned around and went to Shangshu Mansion.

Mrs. Du's expression did not change when she heard that Manager Wang had been arrested by the Tongpan Yamen: "You just go and take the master's film to pick him up."

Before the housekeeper could respond, a woman ran in. This woman was the wife of the steward Wang, and everyone called her Aunt Wang. Normally, Grandma Wang looked dignified and her every move showed the dignity of a high-ranking housekeeper's wife. However, now she looked panicked and knelt down to Mrs. Du: "Madam, madam, it's not good, it's not good, now. The government officials escorted him,

He beat the gong there and said he had killed someone. "

"What?" Mrs. Du stood up immediately, her expression became very ugly: "Does this Tongpan Yamen want to go against our Shangshu Mansion?"

"Madam, it seems that we can only ask the Minister to come forward." Grandma Wang knelt on the ground. Mrs. Du's hands clenched into fists but then unclenched. She went to ask the Minister to ask for help, but the Minister was most afraid of trouble and disliked others. If I bother you for no reason, I'm afraid Wang Shangshu is still having fun with others in the monastery.

"Madam, madam!" Grandma Wang took two steps on her knees and her tone became sad: "You also know that he is old and has done so many things for you. If he enters the Yamen and cannot survive the punishment, say If you say something you shouldn't say, what's the point?"

Mrs. Du slapped Grandma Wang on the face: "That's nonsense."

"Madam, madam, I'm not doing this for myself, but for your reputation, madam." Grandma Wang didn't dare to say anything after being beaten, she just kowtowed to Mrs. Du and cried bitterly. Mrs. Du let out a long breath: "That's it, that's all. In that case, then go and ask the old minister."

It was not yet noon, and Wang Shangshu wanted to drink tea and burn incense in the morning. Mrs. Du thought about it again and again, changed into plain and elegant clothes, ordered someone to bring the good tea that had just arrived yesterday, and asked Grandma Wang to follow her to the garden. .

As they walked, Mrs. Du told Nanny Wang: "Be careful, and don't show anything that would displease the old minister."

"Yes, I will be very careful." Grandma Wang knew that no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't show any displeasure about this matter.

Mrs. Du sighed: "Tell me, why are there so many people in this house?

What's going on? "
