Chapter 324 There must be a private transaction
Inside the county government office, in the rooms where the government officials live.
As more and more family members come to Beishan County, fewer and fewer people live here. There are only a few people left in the originally crowded rooms.
"Tou Song, how are you? Is it true to what I said as a matchmaker?" Sun Tzu couldn't wait to ask as soon as he returned to the room.
Song Xiyu nodded, "It's okay, you have your heart."
Sun Zixiao took out a bag of money from his arms and stuffed it into Song Xiyu's hand, "This little money is an advance gift from me. I don't dare to have any big ideas. I just want to follow you in the future."
Song Xiyu smiled and accepted the bag of money, "Okay, I remember."
Across the door, Zuo Datou's face was livid. From this tone, he knew that there was something wrong with the two people inside, but the content of the conversation could not capture substantial evidence.
He finally understood what the adults meant.
Thinking of the adults' behavior in the past, he did not immediately open the door to question the two people, but turned to look for Meng Changqing.
In the study room, after Meng Changqing listened to Zuo Datou's retelling, the doubts that had always existed in his heart were solved.
"These two people must have a private deal. With Song Xiyu's current power, the benefits he can grant to his grandson can only be related to the construction of official roads.
It would be too laborious to point it out to them and then press for the reason.
Now, we are only aware of problems with these two people. Are there problems with other soldiers as well? No one dares to conclude that if he is investigated in a big way, other people with evil intentions will definitely hide their hands and feet. Meng Changqing said to Zuo Datou: "Check secretly to see why they colluded together." ”
Zuo Datou responded: "Yes."
Meng Changqing asked him again, "How do you plan to investigate?"
"Find people I trust and ask around them to see what they have been doing recently and whether there is anything unusual about them."
Meng Changqing said, "Not only the people around them, but also the people working under them should ask."
"I understand." "Thank you, if we remove people like this from the team earlier, we can feel more at ease."
"Song Xiyu is the person I chose. My subordinates are blind and dare not talk about hard work."
Meng Changqing stepped forward and patted his shoulder, "Go ahead."
After Song Xiyu left, Meng Changqing immediately opened the book box, dug out the soldier roster, and found Song Xiyu and Sun Zixiao. He saw that they were from different places of origin and had been in the army at different times.
She knew in her heart that no matter whether the two people's mistakes were big or small, she would not keep them, so she simply crossed them out with charcoal.
After Zhang Yuan left, she reorganized the soldiers around her into different classes. This was originally to facilitate management and education, but people's hearts are hard to change, and no amount of teaching would work on people with bad nature.
Under the dark night, in the wilderness, Zheng Xidong heard the voices of her parents in the distance.
They were calling her name.
The more they shouted, the farther Zheng Xidong walked.
Not knowing how she got around or how long she had been walking, Zheng Xidong suddenly saw a firelight in front of her. Upon closer inspection, she actually walked near the official road. The firelight came from the tent where the government officials were guarding the tools and livestock.
When he thought of the yamen servants, he couldn't help but think of those two people, so Zheng Xidong immediately changed his direction.
She was tired and hungry, and wanted to stop, but she didn't know where she could stop. She only knew that she couldn't stop here or there.
After walking, she arrived at the county town, which was wealthier than Anxi Village. There were still houses with lights on at night. To avoid the government officials who were patrolling at night, she ducked into an unlocked house nearby.
When I walked in and touched the neatly arranged tables and benches, I realized that I was entering a school.
She was also curious, why didn't the school door lock? But she no longer had the energy to think about it at the moment. She found her way to the spot where she had been sitting before, where she lay down and fell asleep.
