A true mother official should make decisions for the people, instead of retreating, he should bow to the evil forces.
Even if he has no power behind him today, he will fight Wang Haotian to the end even at the cost of his life.
Looking at the furnishings in this hall, Zhang Feimo couldn't tell what was going on.
He could only say that Xu Gaoyuan had done something wrong from the very beginning.
There were no valuables in the main room. There was nothing on the desk except a set of ordinary writing brushes, inkstones, paper and inkstone.
It seems that Xu Gaoyuan practices calligraphy here on weekdays.
"Sir, I have also heard about what happened between you and Wang Haotian. I can only say that if you don't have any power behind you, this move is completely digging your own grave."
Seeing that Zhang Feimo spoke frankly, Xu Gaoyuan did not beat around the bush.
Although he retired, he knew everything that happened in Heshan County.
Knowing that Zhang Feimo was a person who cared about the people, Xu Gaoyuan felt relieved.
Even if Zhang Feimo came to his house today, he would go find him.
"Just because I made the same choice as you? Because I had a conflict with Wang Haotian? Or do you think I'm digging my own grave?"
Zhang Feimo asked back. After all, he was young and full of energy. When he said this, his tone was obviously sarcastic.
In his view, a county that dares to confront evil forces is a qualified county.
Even if he has the people in his heart, he is still qualified.
In addition to caring about the people in the county, the chief official of a county must also ensure that the people have enough food and clothing.
Allow them to live stably in the county, afford taxes, and lead them to a more prosperous life.
Xu Gaoyuan didn't do all of this.
The most important thing is that Xu Gaoyuan even thought he had done it.
"Do you know who Wang Haotian is?" Xu Gaoyuan obviously agreed with Zhang Feimo's words.
"No matter who he is, he is not a good person if he harms the people of Heshan County. As the mother official, I should make the decision for the people."
"But what can you use to fight him?"
"Official! I am the chief official of Heshan County, and he is a commoner. Why should I fight him? I just need to find evidence against him and I can punish him."
In Zhang Feimo's view, all of this is a normal way and requires the use of tricks in secret.
Hearing Zhang Feimo's tone, County Magistrate Xu obviously agreed.
"If Master Zhang came to say these words to me today, I can only say that you are still a little young and hot-tempered."
Hearing what her old man said, Madam Xu couldn't help but pull his sleeves, then apologized to Zhang Feimo:
"Don't mind it, Master Zhang. This old man has become more straightforward since he retired. He is impatient. If he offends you, I will pay for him."
"That's true. Madam Xu is very polite. I am just very disappointed."
Zhang Feimo said calmly, then looked at County Master Xu and continued:
"You make your choice, and I do mine. I came here today to verify something with County Magistrate Xu. I hope you can tell me the truth."
After these words, Zhang Feimo had a general idea of what kind of person Xu Gaoyuan was.
He could not say that he hated this kind of person, he could only say that he was more cowardly than he thought.
"Master Zhang, please tell me. I understand your feelings. When I was first assigned to Heshan County, I had the same idea. I am happy to help you."
Xu Gaoyuan's words were sincere.
"I'm sure County Magistrate Xu is very clear about the disaster relief back then, right?" Zhang Feimo said bluntly.
When he said this, his eyes never left Xu County.
Sure enough, after hearing these words, the expression on Xu Gaoyuan's face changed.
From the initial surprise, to the subsequent hesitation, and then back to surprise...
None of this escaped Zhang Feimo's eyes.
"The imperial court clearly allocated disaster relief funds back then, but where are the relief supplies and funds? Why didn't they reach the people?" Zhang Feimo asked again.
He believed that Xu County had not embezzled the disaster relief funds, otherwise he would not be living like this now.
Therefore, he needed to find out where the disaster relief funds went, or who the disaster relief envoys were.
As long as he has evidence, he will completely disintegrate Wang Haotian's power.
"I advise you not to investigate further." After careful consideration, Xu Gaoyuan uttered these words.
"Sir, just tell me the truth, and don't worry about anything else." Zhang Feimo's tone had become softer.
And no matter whether Xu Gaoyuan's purpose is for his own good or for the good of the people of Heshan County.
But in Zhang Feimo's eyes, this is stubborn and cowardly.
"If County Magistrate Xu wants to say something, I have many ways to find out. I just want to waste time. Of course, I can understand County Magistrate Xu's desire to protect himself. You can say it, but I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. It just takes a little more time."
After getting the answer he wanted, Zhang Feimo began to change his strategy.
He knew that what Xu Xian said was not for self-protection, so he needed to provoke him.
Sure enough, with these words, County Magistrate Xu's face changed drastically.
"In the eyes of County Magistrate Zhang, am I such a coward?"
"Are you afraid? If you were afraid of death, why did you dare to fight Wang Haotian to the end? If you had fought Wang Haotian to the end, why would the people of Heshan County be in dire straits now?
The entire Heshan County is full of unjust cases, and there are people everywhere who have been harmed by Wang Haotian. Have you ever thought about how difficult their lives are? Also, who is the culprit behind this unjust case? If this kind of people are removed, can the people of Heshan County still live a good life? ”
With every word Zhang Feimo said, Xu Gaoyuan's heart felt more lifted.
He opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but didn't know what to say.
Because he knew the truth of what Zhang Feimo said.
Seeing Xu Gaoyuan loosen up, Zhang Feimo continued:
"I know what you want to say. You just made this difficult decision to protect the people of Heshan County. In fact, I can only say that this is a sign of cowardice.
As the head of a county, you actually compromised with a bully. I don't know how such a county can serve the people well. ”
"Your Excellency is wrong. Wang Haotian is not as simple as you think. There are many forces behind him. Once they are mobilized, these people will not be harmed." After a long while, Xu Gaoyuan spoke.
"You're backing down just like that?" Zhang Feimo was even more sarcastic.
"You don't understand at all!" Xu Gaoyuan was excited.
