Chapter 205

Widow Chen then issued a few more orders.

Appoint Huo Wa as the head of the guard, and lead the first, second and third platoons into the county government office for preliminary inspection.

Order the fourth platoon leader to lead more than 20 soldiers to occupy the North City Gate.

Order General Fatty Fang to be in charge of the East City Gate and South City Gate, and maintain law and order in the area east of the North and South Streets.

Order the roe son Cao to summon the former government servants and soldiers in Yizhou City to be responsible for the security of the XC area from the North and South Streets, and to guard the west gate.

As the orders were issued one after another, there were fewer and fewer soldiers around, and the expressions of the onlookers gradually relaxed.

Finally, the widow Chen clasped her fists in both hands, and said with a smile: "Fathers and elders, this king is new here, please bear with me if I am disturbed. Everyone should leave. If you want to leave Yizhou City, please pack your luggage quickly. The four cities of Yizhou City You can come and go as you please. If you want to stay and help me create a better tomorrow, I will thank you in advance. I promise that in the future, your life will be ten times better than now, a hundred times better!"

The onlookers were all indifferent to the application, and did not believe such a promise at all.

Some scholars even showed contempt, thinking that bandits are just good words, but they are not ambiguous at all when they kill people.

The widow Chen didn't want everyone to accept it immediately, so she smiled and pointed to the cowhide drum on the left and said, "Since I am your king, I will be the master for you. From now on, this drum will be renamed the Wrongful Drum. Anyone , as long as you have a grievance, you can come here to beat the drums and express your grievances!"

The audience was still dumbfounded, this drum was originally used in this way, it used to be the magistrate, now it is you.

Compared to the woman on stage, everyone thought that the beheaded county magistrate was more reliable.

"It's all gone, go back and think about it, whether to go or stay, it's up to you!" The widow Chen waved her hand to make the people retreat, then turned around and walked in, and said at the same time: "Prime Minister Cao, General Fang, Follow me into the palace!"

"Minister Zunzhi!" The two immediately followed in a small step with respect and respect.

Although he didn't greet Jiang Xiaobai, Jiang Xiaobai could only give a wry smile and followed him in.

The county office in Yizhou City is a three-entry courtyard. Behind the gate is a courtyard, about 30 meters wide and [-] meters deep. There are wing rooms on both sides, which are the residences of the yamen servant, the anchor, the county magistrate and the master.

Right in front is the lobby, which is square, six or seven meters high, with four corner cornices and dark pillars. Although it looks dilapidated, it is still solemn and solemn.

Behind the lobby is the second courtyard, which should be the living place of the county magistrate.

Behind it is a small garden, although it is only more than 200 square meters, it is also unique and a little fresh.

At this moment, Huowa has completely controlled the entire county government office, and there are people standing on all the commanding heights. The government servants, maids, servants, cooks, and bearers who used to be in the county government office were also gathered in the front courtyard, trembling and kneeling On the ground, some women were still crying.

Huo Wa ran over, touched the ground on one knee, and said, "Master, the county government has searched and found 17 criminals, all brought here."

The widow Chen walked around those people and said to herself: "There are so many people, it's not good to have nothing to do, what should we do? Kill them all?"

As soon as the word "kill" was uttered, Huo Wa pulled out the Chun Jun sword.

"My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!" The seventeen people were scared out of their wits, crying and begging for mercy.

The widow Chen Que smiled and said: "Forget it, there is also a shortage of manpower here. If you still have some skills and are willing to serve me, I can forgive you."

"My lord, we are willing!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This villain is a gardener, and he can work in the garden for your Majesty!"

"The villain is a cook, he can cook all kinds of dishes for the king!"

"Slaves will clean the yard, starch and wash clothes, and sew and mend!"

Everyone scrambled to be the first to introduce their own skills, hoping to get into the widow Chen's eyes and avoid the disaster of killing themselves.

The widow Chen listened with a smile, and suddenly asked, "Who is County Magistrate Liu's wife?"

Everyone bowed their heads.

Even Jiang Xiaobai was also very curious. It is said that when County Magistrate Liu died, her wife should be crying. Why didn't she see such a person?

The roe deer Cao walked over with an embarrassed expression, and said in a low voice: "My lord, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, officials are generally not allowed to bring their wives with them when they take office. Yizhou is a border town, and the county magistrate Liu probably didn't bring his wife."

The widow Chen Yi frowned: "That's not right, Xiu Niang said, he has a wife and a son. His son is lustful and once molested Xiu Niang, I want to avenge Xiu Niang today!"

"Report to Your Majesty." The old gardener knelt down and said, "The county magistrate did not bring any female relatives, but only one son. Because of the chaos outside Yizhou city last night, the county magistrate was worried about his son's safety, so he ordered him to go there early this morning. Baozhou is gone."

"Run away, will daddy's body not be collected?" Widow Chen smiled and stopped asking.

Next, the widow Chen ordered these maids and servants to return to their respective positions, what they did before, and what they are doing now.

Stepping into the lobby of the county government office, the widow Chen Mingren brought a chair, sat side by side with Jiang Xiaobai behind the table, ordered the roe deer Cao to write, and issued three government orders.

The first government decree is the Anmin Announcement, stating that as long as everyone lives in peace and does not commit crimes, everything will be safe.

The second decree is interesting. It basically copied the three major disciplines and eight points of attention. It is mainly to set rules for the troops entering the city. Anyone who dares to take the cards and bully the people will be severely punished.

He also encouraged the people to file a complaint. All the people in Yizhou can come to the county government to file a complaint, and the Lord of Yizhou will definitely uphold justice for them.

This is the widow Chen. When she came to this county office, what she most wanted to do was to imitate Mr. Xiang in movies and TV, pat the gavel, and have a good time.

The clerk of the county government office was still there, and Roe Deer Cao ordered him to copy five copies of each notice, one copy was posted in front of the county government office, and one copy was posted at each of the four city gates.

The widow Chen was eloquent, and the hands of the roe deer Cao and the scribe were sore, which made Jiang Xiaobai look at her with admiration.

It was definitely prepared a long time ago. Maybe the widow Chen started to design such a scene on the first day she gained the ability to travel through.

At around 03:30 in the afternoon, the third government order was issued, and Jiang Xiaobai, widow Chen, roe deer Cao, Fang Dafat, Huowa, and a dozen small bosses who were qualified to participate were left in the lobby.

The widow Chen stretched her waist, and said with a smile: "My dear friends, that's all I can think of. Is there anything else I can add?"

"Taxation and food collection!" Roe deer Cao stepped forward.

"Conscription for war!" Fatty Fang also took a step forward.

The two of them almost talked together, looked at each other, and laughed loudly.

"Heroes see the same thing!" Roe Deer Cao clasped his fists and said, "The general and I want to go together."

Fatty Fang also clasped his fists in salute, and said: "Your Excellency, the Prime Minister has a long-term vision, and Yizhou will surely prosper and prosper."

"Isn't it just money to collect this and that?" The widow Chen Yi curled her lips and said, "How do we get rich?"
