Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 8 It’s almost noon!
In three days, neither fast nor slow, Song Jinshu had sorted out all the accounts.
It must be said that Shi Zhubu was a talented person and his accounts were kept perfectly. If she were a novice, she would definitely not be able to see the problems.
Unfortunately, she wasn't! She had even passed the most difficult CPA exam, so how could he have kept it a secret from her?
There were so many loopholes in the accounts that she couldn't help but feel fortunate that the original owner had embezzled money privately.
Apart from the amount that was accused by Shi Zhubu, the amount of public funds that was recorded as her embezzlement was only twenty or thirty taels.
As long as it doesn't exceed one hundred taels, she can make up the money herself. If the people above come to check, he can cry poor and use excuses to withdraw his salary in advance.
The money was paid, and the people from above couldn't blame her. At most, she would have a black record on her record in the Ministry of Revenue, and her future official career would be more difficult.
As long as she can save her life, she is willing to be a county magistrate for the rest of her life!
Therefore, after finding out Shi Zhubu's weakness, Song Jinshu sent someone to his house to call for help.
Considering that he had been the chief clerk for so long, he was willing to give him a chance to make up for the silver he had embezzled.
Shi Zhubu walked into the hall nervously, and when he looked up at Song Jinshu who was smiling, he felt even more uneasy.
He bowed and greeted: "Master, why did you call me down...?"
"Ahem... Xiao Shi! How many years have you been working at the county government office?"
When Shi Zhubu heard this nickname, his face twisted. Why did this name sound so harsh?
"In reply to your Excellency, I have been serving as the Chief Clerk in Jingyang County for three years."
When Shi Zhubu talked about this, he felt a sense of superiority. In Jingyang County, his background was even deeper than Song Jinshu and Lu Ruoyu.
Unfortunately, he was unlucky, old, and had no connections, so his career path had no limit.
I am destined to spend my whole life grinding around as a chief clerk.
But...if that happens, maybe he can change it against the will of heaven.
"Oh? Is that so? Then you should know the most about our affairs in the yamen, and you should also be clear about your responsibilities... But why..."
Her smiling eyes suddenly became sharp, which frightened Shi Zhubu so much that his legs cramped.
What does Lord Song mean?
Shi Zhubu reviewed his recent actions in his mind and felt that he had done nothing wrong.
He trembled and bowed, "I don't know what I have done wrong. Please enlighten me, sir!"
Song Jinshu sneered and threw out his newly marked account book. There were problems with the marked places.
Shi Zhubu picked it up and looked through it quickly. He was shocked. He had clearly made the account book so perfect that even if someone from above came, they would not be able to find out.
How...how could Song Jinshu, a lazy bum, find all the loopholes in the account books?
This is impossible!
There must be someone behind her directing her! Could it be that Lu Ruoyu?
Shi Zhubu began to secretly resent Lu Ruoyu, as all his painstaking efforts in planning were so easily seen through by him.
How abominable!
This person has such a gloomy mind, but he pretends to be good in front of him and actually looks down on him!
Song Jinshu didn't know that the loophole in the account book that he had worked hard for three days to find was just pinned on Lu Ruoyu by Shi Zhubu.
"Have you finished reading it? Don't try to cheat me. You wrote this down yourself, stroke by stroke. Even if you handed it to His Majesty, it's still your fault!
"Master Shi! You are truly capable, daring to frame me for this! Do you look down on me? Do you think I am at your mercy?"
Shi Zhubu had already fallen to his knees in fear. He had never been so brave before. This was because he had been following two corrupt officials and had been slowly nurtured!
Under the influence of the previous Lord Yang, he followed his example and secretly made a fortune.
Later, Lord Yang was investigated and exiled to the far north. He was afraid and restrained himself a lot.
But in the past two months, 'Song Jinshu' has been even more aggressive than Lord Yang. He has been well-behaved for half a year, but is now ready to make some moves again.
I never thought that I would be pecked in the eye by an eagle!
"Sir, please spare my life! I really don't dare to do it again! I also ask that since you also embezzled public funds, please spare my life. I am willing to make up for the amount you embezzled!"
Yo! This is threatening her!
But it must be said that he really grasped her lifeline!
Song Jinshu smiled awkwardly and helped Shi Zhubu up. "Xiao Shi, look at you, what are you saying? I didn't say I would definitely convict you, did I?"
"We've been colleagues for several months, and we have a deep bond. How could I bear to send you to jail? I'm not an unreasonable person. How about this? If you return all the money you embezzled, I'll let bygones be bygones, and you can still live your life in comfort..."
Upon hearing this, Shi Zhubu looked up at her eyes, which were dark and his true emotions could not be seen. He felt insecure.
But there was no other way. She had already dug up the debt, and if he didn't pay it back, he would go to jail!
Never mind! He hadn't embezzled much in the past six months, so the money he had saved was enough for him.
Besides, he had received a letter from the other side. In that case, he might as well do it cleanly, pay off the debt and leave this poor county as soon as possible.
Having made up his mind, Shi Zhubu relaxed his frown and bowed to Song Jinshu gratefully, saying, "Thank you very much, sir. I will definitely make up for the shortfall."
Song Jinshu smiled slightly bitterly. Xiao Shi agreed so quickly, he must have made a lot of money!
She thought the two of them were going to argue for a while!
Shi Zhubu said goodbye and prepared to go home to pack his things. After paying back the money, he would take his family to Guangrao County.
Household registration and travel permits also have to be prepared in advance, and time is running out. Shi Zhubu said he didn't want to waste time here with Song Jinshu, the magistrate of a poor county.
Song Jinshu looked up at the sky. The sun was very bright today. It must be noon time, right?
On the square of East Street in the county town.
The people stood in an orderly manner on both sides of the road, holding rotten vegetable leaves and pig and cow dung, waiting for the prison van of Master Li Sanye to arrive.
Considering the current living standards of the people in Jingyang County, eggs are meat dishes and are very precious. No one would be stupid enough to throw eggs at others.
Lu Ruoyu rode a horse and escorted Mr. Li Sanye and his gang to East Street.
He still remembered that he went to look for Song Jinshu in the morning, but he didn't even see her.
She only sent a servant to tell him to do his job well and not to waste her trust.
Thinking of how she had begged him three days ago, Lu Ruoyu's lips curled up slightly. On ordinary days, she seemed to be fearless, corrupt and lawless, and even robbed young prostitutes...
He would actually be beheaded?
Does she realize that what she has done is enough to get her head chopped off?
If she were to fall one day in the future, I wonder if she would be scared to death?
When Lu Ruoyu thought of the scene at that time, she frowned slightly and turned to look at Mr. Li San who was in a mess.
He frowned and sped up the prison van, and soon arrived at the East Street Square.
This is where serious criminals are dealt with, and it hasn't been used for a long time.
This is the first time in recent years!
The people around rushed forward and shouted angrily at Mr. Li San to vent their anger.
