Bai Xian bowed to Du Zhongxiao and said, "Mr., the case has been concluded. I will go to a foreign land to seek refuge in relatives and friends. Thank you, I have accepted my complaint and returned to Ye County for retrial. Although there are many unsatisfactory things, it will eventually be an ending."

Du Zhongxiao looked at Bai Xian and wore a new dress today, with a calm temperament. After thinking for a while, he said, "In the end, it was just Jian Guanwai who colluded with Zhang Guanwai to secretly change the loan note, forcing someone to die, without the death penalty. Your father was still considered to have died of suicide, and he was a little sorry."

Bai Xian said: "It has been a long time since the matter has passed, and I can only do my best and leave it to fate. Although I feel unwilling to accept it, I can only accept it. The Jian family has lost a lot of money, and the matter has passed. Alas, for a moment, I really don't know what to say."

Du Zhongxiao was speechless for a moment. The Bai family's case had been tried, and Bai Zhengran's body had rotted and nothing could be found. In the end, he could only close the case by hanging himself. Jian Jian was sentenced to heavy sentence and was sent to the northwest to reclaim the land, and there was no death penalty. This result obviously cannot satisfy Bai Xian, but what else can I do? There are many unsatisfactory things in the world. Du Zhongxiao is the censor, and can only supervise and cannot personally examine the case. This is the only way.

After seeing Bai Xian off, Du Zhongxiao returned to the inn and felt a little upset. He picked up the case trial records sent by Bao Ke in the past two days and watched them casually.

Most of the people arrested these days are powerful people who control various markets and have asked many cases. They are just small cases, no lawsuits, and no cases involving a wide range of cases. In many places, this is something that happens every day, and many trial officials have headaches.

After searching through the case files, Du Zhongxiao put it aside and closed his eyes to ponder. A place like Ye County, facing a large amount of wealth, no lawsuits or major cases are too strange. Du Zhongxiao thought that if every person occupying a market, if there is no life, a large number of fights are indispensable.

After thinking for a long time, Du Zhongxiao said to the soldiers on the side: "Go and invite Bao Tixing and Wu Zhijian to come, I have something to say to them."

How long did it take? The two of them arrived and each sat down. Du Zhongxiao ordered tea.

After using tea, Du Zhongxiao said, "Today, Miss Bai came to say goodbye to me, saying that the case had ended, and she went to join relatives in another country. The case was entangled for more than half a year, and it was not until I came to the censorate and I came in person, and the result was achieved."

Bao Ke hurriedly bowed: "It's all the officials who are incompetent, and they have implicated the Chief Executive."

Du Zhongxiao said: "There are many things in the world that are not helpless. It is not that I don't want to do it, but that I can't do it. Although Miss Bai is not very satisfied with the result of the case, the trial has ended and she doesn't say much."

Bao Ke and Wu Junyong bowed and said that they were yes and did not dare to explain. Those who knew about the Bai family understood that Bai Zhengran's death was probably the action of Jian Jian. However, there was no one to prove it, so it would be best not to ask.

Looking at the two, Du Zhongxiao said, "Actually, the people don't ask for much, just give a result. There is no way, and we don't force everything to be clear. We should understand this as an official and govern. We should not say much about the past. We naturally sent papers we received from Ye County, and transferred many officials from neighboring prefectures and counties to help with the trial. How do you two think the trial is?"

Bao Ke looked at Wu Junyong and bowed, "The officials in the past few days have almost been day and night, and they have been tried in detail. Although there are inevitably unsatisfactory areas, their intentions have always come. Knowing that Zhongcheng has not stayed in Ye County for too long, he will definitely try it out as soon as possible."

Du Zhongxiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The trial is clear? I don't think it's clear. I've arrested so many powerful people in the area for a while, but the ground in Ye County is as calm as before. Do you know why?"

Bao Ke bowed: "I wish to listen to the teachings of the Chief Executive!"

Du Zhongxiao said: "Because the arrested people know that their subordinates knew that they did not arrest them, and that they did not have any serious crimes. They were just imprisoned for a few days. The powerful people still took care of the local area when they went out. There were not many days, and the subordinates outside tolerated each other and waited for it first. No matter what, they were just waiting for these people to go out and then slowly figured out a solution. Procurement of the case. Is it really good for the local area to try the case?"

Bao Ke was silent for a while and said, "Zhongcheng, these local tyrants were killed because they had abolished the guild. They only needed to maintain local order, and they did not need to fight, kill, and did not commit serious crimes."

"Isn't it really not?" Du Zhongxiao's tone suddenly became heavier. "Is it because of fighting and killing, fighting and fighting, it's up to you! I've read the sham paper and the aphorisms you tried. I always avoid the important things and just want to escape like this?"

Bao Ke didn't say anything. In fact, in his heart, he felt that what Du Zhongxiao said made sense, but he couldn't say what he was wrong.

Wu Junyong said: "Zhongcheng, those people are just city foxes and clubs that control the local area. Of course there are mistakes, but there is no big mistake. The government cannot control the local area everywhere, so naturally these people are needed."

Du Zhongxiao said: "Why do you need these people? The court laws govern the local government, either officials or officials! If the guilds are abolished, why should these people manage the local government? When you investigate the case, you will let go of any officials and people, and the focus will be on the conflict between these people and the people. They have already controlled the market and collected regulations. What life and death conflicts with the people? As a result, there are a lot of small cases and no major issues are involved. What's the use of this? It's just a few days to be locked up and put them back!"

Bao Ke said: "Zhongcheng, this is the case, what can we do?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "Is this really the case? Local tyrants do not collude with officials, how can they fish in the village? The Bai family case is not so complicated, and it involves several officials. How can these tyrants who control local areas have no support from the county government? Go back and tell the officials who investigate the case here not to be afraid of being involved in Ye County's public officials! Anyone who is involved, the more officials and the more they are, the more they must investigate it!"

After saying this, the scene became quiet for a moment, and Bao Ke and Wu Junyong didn't speak. After a while, Bao Ke said, "Zhongcheng, if you do this, there will be no one in Ye County."

Du Zhongxiao said: "Can the officers be transferred from the Iron Supervisor, why can't the public be transferred? Are you afraid of local chaos? Ye County has a patrol department. If the troops are not strong enough, I will write to Xuzhou Cao to comfort me and transfer troops from other places. What's the difficulty?"

Empress Cao's younger brother Cao Qi is now the pacifier of Jingxi Road, and the governor of Xuzhou, and in charge of military power of Jingxi Road. With the training of the entire army, the imperial guards began to become field troops, and the pacifiers mainly controlled local forces. As long as there is force to suppress the troops, are they still afraid that the local people will rebel? Of course, Du Zhongxiao did not know that Cao Qi was Cao Guojiu, the legend of the Eight Immortals in the later generations, had always been a good person.

Wu Junyong said: "Zhongcheng, the public has always used local wealthy households. If you make a mistake, make an accident, or lose money, you have a place to find. If you strictly investigate the current officials and replace all the public officials and servants in Ye County, what should you do in the future?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "Using local big households? In the past, they asked large households to take turns to work, but now they have not changed for many years. Releasing sentences and judiciary, those are the methods that the local government has no money, and the government cannot afford to hire people. Can Ye County be the same? If taxes are raised here, how can they not afford to hire people? Isn't the people hired better than local big households? Not to mention that Ye County accounts for the absolute majority of customers and stubbornly use local big households, they will inevitably collude with the powerful and control the local area."

Bao Ke and Wu Junyong did not speak, but they did not dare to agree to Du Zhongxiao.

Du Zhongxiao sighed: "The Censorate has never interfered in local affairs. This time the emperor ordered me to come, which has already shown that the Iron Supervision is different from other places. Why do you still don't understand? If the local tyrants occupy various markets, if they are replaced by government officials, they will collect more money and grain. With money, are you still afraid that no one will work?"

Seeing that Du Zhongxiao was determined, Bao Ke and Wu Junyong had to bow down: "The lower official followed the words of Zhongcheng and went back to give orders."

Du Zhongxiao said: "If you dare to manage officials and people, you will not be just these small cases. In a big county like Ye County, there are countless cases in a year, and they have been suppressed by various means. This case trial, so many people have been transferred and such a big disturbance has been caused. We must be punished in poverty. We must turn the entire Ye County over and start everything again!"

Bao Ke and Wu Junyong said that they were so scared. Looking at Du Zhongxiao's appearance, it didn't seem like investigating a case, but it seemed like he was going to make a comeback.

Du Zhongxiao sighed heavily when he asked the two to leave. Sometimes, he really wanted to put aside these local officials and go to the battlefield in person. Unfortunately, he worked for the Imperial Palace and stayed in Ye County for a short time, so he really couldn't do it.

This time, by taking advantage of the trial of the Bai family case to Ye County, Du Zhongxiao thought of abandoning the old traditions and trying to find a system to develop industrially in Ye County, conducting experiments and waiting for promotion. Unfortunately, these two officials are not familiar with him and are not the candidates for doing things.

Since the establishment of the Iron Supervision Bureau, it has been seven or eight years since the establishment of the Iron Supervision Bureau, and Baiting Supervision has entered a period of rapid development. At this time, the system cannot be changed, and it will become more and more troublesome in the future. In particular, other Iron Supervision Bureaus are all learning from the management of the Iron Supervision Bureau, which is a role model for other places.

For officials, the political structure of the Song Dynasty was that military and financial power were collected from the court, and the local government could only maintain it. Officials held great power, and those who worked in the local government were actually public officials and servants. From the beginning, everything was created, and the local people were rotated by local people. Generally, middle and upper-class households had wealth and took turns to serve as public officials who did specific work, and middle and lower-class households worked hard to serve as servants.
