Back to the Three Kingdoms and become a python

An Zhong knelt down and said, "This subordinate is guilty."

Lin Bei turned around, looked at the pond, and said calmly, "Do you think Huairen is talented?"

An Zhongzhi didn't speak, and he didn't dare to say it, because Huairen's surname was An.is his son.

"If a person can be like a lotus flower, it will be so difficult to be straight in the middle and outside without spreading or branching. My lord, I don't want aristocratic families to come into my Wanghai. The reason is because these big families have many connections and many marriages. My lord, I also know the selfish ones, such as you. If you make a mistake, my lord will also feel very sad."

"Loyalty has disappointed the adults."

"Well, you really let me down. If An Huairen has talent, I don't mind reusing it. I understand the reason why you don't shy away from relatives, but don't you know what your son is doing? Greedy money More than one hundred thousand, hehe, don’t tell me I’m missing you, my lord, to settle down and eat and drink?”

An Huairen, the eldest son of An Zhongzhi, Ren Wanghai Chengcang, was an official three months ago, embezzled [-] stones of Wanghai City's grain, and more than [-] Dragon God coins. This is the most serious case investigated by the Dragon God Army, and An Zhongzhi was also involved, because An Huairen was An Zhongzhi's son.

An Zhong lay prone on the ground: "My lord, this subordinate is guilty."

"Have you followed me for more than two years?"

"Yes."

"More than two years, not too long but not too short. When I first met you, you were still the head of the pavilion in Xishan Township. Everyone in the village respected you. It seems that people will change. I hope that Haicheng has just started like this. How about you? Loyalty has changed."

"Subordinates are convicted."

"Go back."

"Subordinates retire."

An Zhong knelt down on the ground, slowly retreated outside the courtyard gate, kowtowed three times to Lin Bei, and then got up, but tears were streaming down his face.

...

Three days later, in the Dragon Palace, the discussion resumed.

Lin Bei took the seat. This time, not only the five hundred officials from three days ago, but also nearly a hundred officials who handed in their resignations also came. Many of these people were panic-stricken and very disturbed. They should be disturbed.

"Two years ago, the village was moved from Xishan Township to Wanghai. My lord, I wanted to give everyone a future and give the people who followed me a stable and happy life, but now it seems that I have far underestimated the selfish desires of many people. Perhaps the comfortable life has wiped out the fighting spirit of some people, and these people think that they can sit back and enjoy their success, here, I would like to say sorry to everyone, you think too much."

Lin Bei's voice echoed.

"Bian Ji, where do you get the house you live in, your food and clothing, and your monthly money? Tell me?"

Bian Ji said: "It comes from taxes."

"Xu Shu, Kong Ming, Pang Tong, tell you, where did these come from? Did they fall from the sky?"

All three shook their heads.

Lin Bei continued: "Very well, it seems that you have already realized this point. What are officials? This is a very special group. The common people pay taxes for you to eat and clothes, so that you can get monthly money. From this point of view, officials are like the common people's buddies, and the common people hired you to serve them."

"The common people let you have rights, these rights are higher than the common people, some people even control the life and death of the common people, and it is these rights that make some of you get carried away, and even forget why you have these rights, you take it for granted, here , Let me tell you, without the common people, you are nothing, don’t take the goodness of the common people as capital that can be oppressed at will!!”

"As officials, we should feel humble, not aloof. Think about it, if your guy eats yours and uses yours, and you give him a monthly payment but rides on your head, how would you feel? Do you also take it for granted and get used to it?"

"We officials should be proud. Because the common people trust you, so you are given these rights, including the right to control their life and death. What kind of trust is this? There is great terror between life and death, but the common people dare to You should be proud of the trust that has been entrusted to you."

"The people are the most important thing. The king is not an empty phrase. Looking at the downfall of many dynasties, it is precisely because many officials did not understand this truth, they did not feel humble, and they took their rights for granted."

"It's only been two years since the Dawei Dragon King Sect was built, but now some people have lost their composure. If it takes another 20 years, 200 years, what will happen? Look at the Han Dynasty today, do you want to repeat the same mistakes? Maybe you think that life is just too short A hundred years, but to me, the Foundation of Eternity is just the beginning, so I will never allow this kind of thing to happen here."

"People's hearts are changeable, we can guard against the passing of time, and the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant's nest. Today I will sound the alarm for all of you. I will never be soft on those who get carried away. Xu Shu, Pang Tong, come and tell everyone, the three God found out."

Xu Shu and Pang Tong stood up, with expressionless faces, and began to read out the problems found in the past three days.And it's a roll call.

Lin Bei closed his eyes, listening to the names Xu Shu and Pang Tong read one by one. When they said An Huairen, Xu Shu paused, and Lin Bei opened his eyes.It took a long time before he said in a deep voice: "An Huairen is the eldest son of An Zhongzhi, and the position he has given to him is his appointment for selfishness. According to the law, those who favor selfishness should work hard for three years. I think that when Wanghai City was first built, he worked hard and was exempted from hard labor. As a commoner, his son will be punished according to the crime of corruption."

"Thank you sir." An Zhongzhi kowtowed his head, Lin Bei saw that An Zhongzhi already had gray hair, Lin Bei closed his eyes again.

Many people couldn't bear it, but seeing that even An Zhongzhi was demoted to a commoner, one knew that Lord Dragon King was definitely not favoritism.

"My lord, I've finished reading." An hour later, Xu Shu said to Lin Bei.

"Okay, did everyone hear clearly?" Lin Bei looked at the nearly one hundred officials who handed in their resignations, and said in a deep voice, "Deal with the law."

Sergeants rushed in and dragged these people out, either to the rod or to hard labor.

Looking at the rest of the people, Lin Bei said softly: "You are still a good official, you know the duty of being an official, I hope you will take today as a warning."

Lin Bei said again: "A few days ago, there was a lot of trouble because of the two regulations. Today I will talk to you in detail. Is there any objection to the first way of redressing grievances?"

All the officials dared not speak.

Lin Bei said in a deep voice: "Is there no objection? Could it be that you are all messing around these days?"

Someone finally boldly said: "My lord, we have no objection to the matter of appealing for grievances."

"Oh, that's the second rule. Do not close the account at night. Is this what you think is inappropriate?"

"Of course."

"Then tell me in detail, what's wrong?"

"My lord, now I feel trembling when I take a bath and go to the toilet. I don't want the common people to watch the things in the boudoir, but there are always those who do good things..."

Lin Bei chuckled and said, "When did I say that you need to open the door when you take a bath and go to the toilet? Besides, you also open the door when you are with your wife Dun Lun?"

"what..."

"grown ups..."

The crowd suddenly turned pale.

"I just said that you need to keep your account open at night, but I didn't say that you need to do this when you are doing these things. Are you thinking too much?"

"But some common people..."

"It's because you misunderstood what my lord meant. My lord, I just said that you don't close the door at night, and you don't have to hide any decisions from the common people. If you really deal with political affairs while going to the toilet or taking a bath, then I'm afraid this habit really needs to be changed. "

"Then, my lord, when I'm going to sleep?"

"Are the common people really going to see it?"

"My lord, there really are."

"Not a lot."

"Oh, then you don't want common people to visit?"

"I don't want to."
