"Sir, Magistrate Naluo has sent an invitation."

"He said that tonight, he will hold a banquet at home, and then he will report something illegal to you."

Zhao Zheng and Zheng Zhi, who had just returned to the small courtyard, were discussing the prosperity of Qianshu City together.

The Jin Yiwei at the door came in and conveyed a message to them.

"Mr. Zhao, Magistrate Luo is not a good person. He will report any illegal things."

"I don't believe he has such courage when I saw him in such a humble manner before."

"You must not go, otherwise he will have many tricks up his sleeve."

Zheng Zhi was afraid that Zhao Zheng would be deceived, so he expressed his concerns directly.

"rest assured."

"Zheng Zhi, do you know? Being an official is different from being a human being."

"Haven't you always wanted to know what it's like to be admitted to the Inspectorate?"

"Just go with me tonight."

"Let's see another face of this magistrate of Luo County who manages Qianshu City in an orderly manner."

Zhao Zheng patted Zheng Zhi on the shoulder and wanted to go back to the room to rest and recharge his batteries.

But Zheng Zhi's name contains "Zhi", which means that he can't listen to what Zhao Zheng said just now.

"Master Zhao, you don't know Luo Pan's methods."

"Even if an honest official can stick to his true intentions, as long as he is dragged into his home, he will turn into a corrupt official when he comes out."

"He is not just a simple, small county magistrate, Mr. Zhao!"

If Zheng Zhi said these words to others, he would probably break his face immediately.

But Zhao Zheng has died so many times, no one has seen him.

For a person like Zheng Zhi, his dream is to enter the Inspectorate and become a censor to bring justice to the world.

But for a dreamer like him, once he enters the Inspectorate, he may be executed by the emperor the next day.

If you are too straight, you will not be an official.

"Just watch it."

"If an honest official enters his house, he can't get out, right?"

"Then what if I never want to be an upright official?"

The corners of Zhao Zheng's mouth raised, leaving Zheng Zhi with a smile.

"What do you mean? Master Zhao?"

Zheng Zhi really didn't understand, but Zhao Zheng had already entered the room. Although he was straightforward, he also knew his status.

So he obediently sat in the courtyard and waited.

After almost two sticks of incense had passed, two paper balls were thrown out of Zhao Zheng's small room.

Zheng Zhi quickly picked it up and opened it.

Then his worldview collapsed.

"What is this? A letter of recommendation?"

"As long as I have this thing, I can directly become the censor of the Inspectorate!"

Zheng Zhi opened the first paper ball, and his eyes widened. He did not expect that his lifelong dream was just a small crumpled paper ball.

He never thought that this small paper ball was fake.

Because it is stamped with the seal of Zhao Zheng's Inspector Zuo Shi.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao! Thank you, Mr. Zhao!"

Zheng Zhi quickly thanked the room. He was almost moved to tears. It was not until he finished thanking that he opened the second paper ball.

Then his first ball of paper fell to the ground.

Because the contents written on the second paper ball were the illegal things Zhao Zheng had committed after becoming the left historian of the Inspectorate.

Or in other words, Zhao Zheng took advantage of the momentum of the Holy Palace and did something that did not follow the rules and regulations.

"This this……"

Zheng Zhi looked at the charges listed on the two paper balls.

He didn't know what to say.

His mouth opened, and he subconsciously wanted to refute Zhao Zheng.

But it was just a slap in the face, because Zhao Zheng also listed his crimes at the end of the charges.

"As the Zuo Shi of the Inspectorate, I privately mobilized military service..."

"This is a crime of overstepping one's position and seizing power for personal gain."

"On the pretext of punishing illegal activities, we collected 3000 taels of banknotes from corrupt officials and then used them for private matters..."

"The law of the sun and the moon states that anyone who is an official and embezzles more than 50 taels will be stripped of his skin and stuffed with grass."

"..."

Looking at the crimes listed one by one, I thought that Zhao Zheng and the Holy Palace would definitely not do this.

The seeds of contradiction took root and sprouted in Zheng Zhi's heart, and then they rushed across the sky.

At this moment, he really didn't know what he should think at this time.

"Then is Mr. Zhao still a good official?"

"In comparison, Luo Pan manages his subordinates in such an orderly manner. Is he a bad official?"

The person he had hated for three years now seemed to be a good official, and Zheng Zhi felt very conflicted.

The person I have admired for most of my life.

But there are so many crimes listed.

He seems to be a heinous and corrupt official.

Zheng Zhi's mind was already a mess.

But in fact, he was doubting his persistence in the past three years.

For the past three years, I have been crawling on the streets without understanding.

He just sat there blankly in the yard for a long time.

Until Zhao Zheng left the room, he remained motionless.

"Hey, let's go!"

"Master Luo is treating us tonight, have you forgotten?"

Zhao Zheng looked at Zheng Zhi and knew that the two paper balls he had thrown before worked.

Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi.

If you can figure it out, then I can have another right-hand man in the court.

Don't let me down. I locked myself in the room and rested for an afternoon.

Does Zhao Zheng need to rest?

Although his puppet body is not considered young, he is still middle-aged and elderly.

And the products produced by the system are all healthy.

Just get a good night's sleep every day as normal.

So this afternoon, he actually traveled back to the Zhao Mansion in the capital.

Go and investigate what kind of big fish will be around Dongshan Mansion.

"Let's go!"

"Yes!"

……

Luo Pan's personal residence.

Zhao Zheng and Zheng Zhi had just appeared at the other end of the street, and Luo Pan greeted them directly without thinking.

It was not dark yet, there were no curfew rules in a small county, and there were still many people walking on the street.

"Oh, my dear Mr. Zhao, you are finally here to reward me."

Luo Pan's voice was very loud, for fear that the people around him would not be able to see or hear him.

So his move naturally worked.

"What? Master Zhao?"

"Is it Mr. Zhao from the Holy Palace?"

"Then there is another Mr. Zhao who can make our Mr. Qingtian so respected?"

"Our Lord Qingtian is also very kind to us. Now that he has been recognized by the Holy Palace, it is even better!"

Zheng Zhi heard such reactions from the villagers around him, and he wanted to refute.

But Zhao Zheng reminded him when he left the yard and asked him to pretend to be his book boy. Without his instructions, he could not talk nonsense.

Everything just depends on his operation.

So he could only grit his teeth and look sideways at his toes.

"Oh, the folks are ignorant, Mr. Zhao, please don't be offended."

"If you want to blame it, blame it on the official. He always talks about the glory of the Holy Palace, tells them about it, and sets an example for the government officials."

Luo Pan said this, and his face turned red in response.

So Zhao Zheng shook his head when he saw it, saying that he was not surprised.

I became curious, is it possible that some people are born to be bad seeds?

This kind of ability is really strong. A grown man in his 40s or [-]s can blush whenever he says he blushes.

"Master Zhao, please!"
