Age of Empires: Beginning Reincarnation as Prince of Qin

Chapter 220
Since Zhang Ran came to Xiapi County as the county magistrate, it can be said that he has no real power at all.

In Xiapi City, the big families are connected with each other. Whether it is the county magistrate, the county lieutenant, or the sixth house owner Bo, they are all members of the local big family. They united together and made Zhang Ran empty .

Zhang Ran became the parent official of Xiapi City, but he didn't make decisions for the people, so he felt very guilty.

Therefore, Zhang Ran wanted to try his best to make up for the people in Xiapi City.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Ran's monthly salary, food and payment, except for the necessary expenses, are all donated to the nursing home in the city.

Zhang Ran, it can be said that he acts upright and acts straight, and he is not afraid of the shadow slanting when he is upright!

After Zhang Ran finished speaking, he looked at Xiang Yu with his head held high and his chest held high, his aura was not weak at all.

As the saying goes, if a scholar is angry, if the scholar loses his temper, no one will be afraid of him!
Xiang Yu originally heard Zhang Ran say that he donated his salary and food to the nursing home.Xiang Yu was still thinking in his heart, this kid is a man, and his killing intent towards Zhang Ran has also been reduced a bit.

At this time, if Zhang Ran can be subdued and speak softly, Xiang Yu will not care about Zhang Ran scolding him.

However, if Zhang Ran was subdued by Xiang Yu, the rebel, then he would not be Zhang Ran anymore.

Xiang Yu turned his head and saw Zhang Ran's seven dissatisfied and eight dissatisfied expressions, and immediately became angry.

Xiang Yu thought to himself, good Zhang Ran, you really think I dare not kill you!

"Come on" Xiang Yu waved his hand and shouted.

Then, before Xiang Yu finished speaking, he heard Li You say from the side: "Overlord, don't forget the agreement between you and me!"

As soon as Li You said this, if Xiang Yu wanted to pull Zhang Ran out and behead him, he wouldn't be able to say it!
Xiang Yu and Li You had their words first, if Zhang Ran was a corrupt official, then Xiang Yu could kill him whatever he wanted.

It doesn't matter whether he cut off his head with a single knife, cut him into pieces, or cooked him in a big pot, anyway, regardless of how Xiang Yu killed him, Li You would never interfere.

However, if Zhang Ran was an upright official, then Xiang Yu would not be able to kill him. Li You would have saved this man.

Xiang Yu got angry for a while and wanted to kill Zhang Ran, but after Li You's reminder, Xiang Yu's words came to his lips, but he couldn't say any more.

Although Xiang Yu was not smart, he was not stupid either. He knew that he could not break his promise to Li You no matter what.

Killing Zhang Ran is a small thing, but breaking Li You's trust is a big deal.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yu quickly changed his words: "Come here, come to the Nursing Home and ask if this Zhang Ran really sent his salary to the Nursing Home!"

Xiang Yu thought to himself, I have to ask now, although I can't kill you, but if you criticize Zhang Ran for bragging, then I have to humiliate you.

"Decree!" One of Xiang Yu's confidantes bowed his hands and took the order to leave.

However, for Xiang Yu today, it was destined to be a slap in the face.

Obviously, Xiang Yu was about to be slapped in the face again!
After a while, the people sent by Xiang Yu came back.

Not only did the person come back, he also brought the accounts of the nursing home and the old director in charge of the nursing home.

"Reporting to Overlord, County Magistrate Zhang will indeed donate a sum of money to the nursing home every month, no matter whether it is cold or hot!"

"Here are the accounts of the Nursing Home, and the donations from County Magistrate Zhang are all clearly recorded!"

"Please take a look at the overlord!" The old dean said, handing the account to Xiang Yu with trembling hands.

The reason why the old dean trembled was not because he was afraid of Xiang Yu, but mainly because he would inevitably tremble when he got older.

Anyway, it is a bit similar to the symptoms of elderly Parkinson's.

After hearing these words, Xiang Yu wished he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in. This face slap is really serious.It's just "crack, crack, crack"!

Xiang Yu thought to himself, damn it, this is really embarrassing.

Xiang Yu felt ashamed and humiliated, but the old director of the nursing home had no vision.

He held up this account in front of Xiang Yu, which meant that Xiang Yu had to take a look at it.

However, Xiang Yu is not willing to look at these things.

Just listening, Xiang Yu said angrily: "This king is illiterate, let the military adviser come and see!"

"This Zhang Ran will be handled by the military division!"

After suffering a loss from Zhang Ran, the county magistrate of Xiapi, then naturally he has to find a way to find compensation. Where can he find compensation? Naturally, he should seek compensation from the county magistrate and county captain.

Xiang Yu angrily came to the county magistrate and the county magistrate, and said in a deep voice: "That's been searched, it's the turn of these two people, if this king finds out something, I will definitely peel your skin!"

Seeing Xiang Yu's appearance, the two of them secretly complained in their hearts.Come on, if the things in their mansion were searched by Xiang Yu, they would have ten heads, which would not be enough to lose.

After Xiang Yu said this, he immediately took a team of people to search the homes of the county magistrate and magistrate himself.

Here, after Xiang Yu left, Li You came to Zhang Ran and untied him from the rope!

"My king is a warrior, so his temper is unavoidably rude!"

"Magistrate Zhang, please, don't be offended!" Li You apologized to Zhang Ran on behalf of Xiang Yu while untying Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran took a look at Li You, and felt that he was not only a scholar, but also a great sage.

At this time, Zhang Ran also muttered in his heart, such a great sage, why did he become a thief?
After Li You untied Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran couldn't bear it anymore, and asked Li You, "Mr. Wu Guan is also a scholar, and his knowledge is ten times and a hundred times better than that of Ran!"

"Ran knows how to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, why would you be a thief?"

Hearing Zhang Ran's words, Li You couldn't help but smile in his heart, Li You thought, you Zhang Ran knows that you are loyal to the emperor and serve the country.How can I, Li You, not know, to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country.

It's just that you, Zhang Ran, are loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and you are loyal to the Emperor of Han, and you are loyal to the great man!And I, Li Yuzhong, serve the country, and I am loyal to the Qin State, and I serve the Great Qin.

What I, Li You, do now is to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. I am now working hard for the great cause of Emperor Qin's unification of the seven kingdoms and the establishment of a unified dynasty.

Li You certainly felt that Zhang Ran was a talented person, but after all, the two had just met, and they were not friends who supported him, so naturally they couldn't talk to him about it.

Li Youbao took Zhang Ran down because he felt that he was a talent and wanted to develop his own team.After this day, after Li You felt that Zhang Ran was credible, he would not tell Qin Huang's great ambitions and persuade him to be loyal to Qin Huang.

Before that, Li You would never reveal a word to him.

Li You smiled slightly, and said a nonsense: "Magistrate Zhang knows that now the seven kings of the Han Dynasty are rebelling, and my king's rebellion is just to make more trouble for the Han."

"In this great Han world, the King of Han is clearly not sitting still. Since others can rebel, why can't my king rebel?"

After Li You finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Ran closely, wanting to see how he would answer.What Li You said now is actually taking this opportunity to test the school and make a fuss.

There is no doubt that the character of the county magistrate Zhang in front of him is undisputed, but Li You still has to try whether he is a person with real talents and real learning.

Hearing what Li said, Zhang Ran looked indignant, and only heard him answer angrily: "The world is in trouble, and we, the scholars, should help the country and the country, and help the Han Dynasty."

"Is there any reason for me to rebel when others rebel?"

After Zhang Ran finished speaking, Li You immediately retorted: "If it is not desperate, who is willing to rebel?"

"The great man has been rotten to the root. All the seven countries in the world implement the system of prefectures and counties, but only the Han Emperor implements the enfeoffment system. The reason why the great man is rotten is because he is rotten in this enfeoffment system."

"Isn't the reason for the current chaos in the Han Dynasty precisely because the Emperor of Han wants to abolish the enfeoffment system?"

"It's a pity, what can I do, the Emperor of Han is powerless now!"

"The great man will be in chaos, and the great man will perish. Of course, if the Emperor of Han urgently needs to maintain the enfeoffment system, and does not move these many kings of the opposite sex, then the great man may still be able to survive for a while!"

"However, if that's the case, what's the point of existence for this big man!"

"Only when the great man dies and a new regime is born, will the common people have hope!"

Li You's words really left Zhang Ran speechless.

Li You was right. The reason why the great Han died was because of the enfeoffment system.

It is precisely because of the enfeoffment system that the power of these princes and kings of the Han Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, while the power of the central government is getting weaker and weaker.

The current big man is like a patient with terminal cancer.Liu Bang now wants to eradicate these princes and kings, which is like operating on a patient with advanced cancer cells that have spread throughout his body.

Everything Liu Bang is doing now is in vain.

Now, if you don't move him, he can still live on for a while, but if you insist on moving him now, he will die immediately.

"you"

"You can't say that, how can you know that this newly born regime will be better than the Han court?"

"How can you know that the people's life can be better!" Zhang Ran retorted.

Hearing Zhang Ran's words, Li You knew that his bait was almost cast, and it was time for the fish to take the bait.

At this moment, Li You said, "How about I make a bet with County Magistrate Zhang?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ran also became curious, and Zhang Ran asked Li You, "Sir, how do you want to bet?"

"Just bet on whether my king can let the people live and work in peace and contentment after he wins Xiapi County. Let's limit it to three months. After these three months, if everyone in Xiapi County loves and praises my king, the county magistrate will be my family How effective is the king?" Li You asked Zhang Ran.

As we said before, Zhang Ranna is also a stubborn ass, and when he heard that Li You was going to bet with him, he was not afraid at all, but excited.

Zhang Ran thought to himself, bet, bet, bet!I will win this bet!
As for Xiang Yu's appearance, Zhang Ran knew at a glance that he was a reckless man, a martial artist.

Such a person can attack a city and seize territory, and he can do it by fighting and ambush. If you let him manage the people's livelihood, it is undoubtedly letting the blind man do needlework.

In Zhang Ran's opinion, the people under Xiang Yu's subordinates can manage the people's livelihood, and this Mr. Li is the only one in front of him!

Not to mention just three months, Zhang Ran felt that even half a year, Xiang Yu would not be able to win the hearts of the people.

In Zhang Ran's view, if the people were to be afraid of Xiang Yu and Xiang Yu, three days would be enough, let alone three months.

However, if you want the people to love Xiang Yu from the bottom of their hearts and praise Xiang Yu verbally, Zhang Ran thought to himself, not to mention three months, even three years.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's make this bet with the gentleman!" Zhang Ran said, patting his chest.

After Zhang Ran agreed, the two made a high-five oath and made a gentleman's agreement!
"These days, I, Li, will take over the post of county magistrate, and county magistrate Zhang will watch in front of me!"

"Let's see how I, Li You, can make all the people in Xiapi City love my king in just three months!" Li You said to Zhang Ran.

These days, Zhang Ran can barely count as a white body.He also has no specific job responsibilities, just watching how Li You handles government affairs.

"That's great!" Zhang Ran nodded his head.

Although Li Yousuo was impassioned, Zhang Ran was also a little moved.However, Zhang Ran would not rashly follow the thieves before seeing the new deal of this group of thieves!

Zhang Ran is also very happy that he has no specific official duties, let alone idle time, he is not considered a thief now.At most, it was kidnapped and coerced.

"Since that's the case, let's settle this matter like this!"

"Brother Zhang can go back to the mansion to rest first, and I will go to the king's side to take a look, just to see how much money these two corrupt officials have been greedy for!" Li You said to Zhang Ran in a deep voice.

Zhang Ran moved, and immediately replied: "I don't know, can Mr. Li take me there!"

"The county magistrate and the county lieutenant are huge greedy people. I also want to see how much they have been greedy for."

Although Zhang Ran is the county magistrate of Xiapi City, he is not so useless as a county magistrate.Not only has he never held the power of Xiapi County, but he can't even tell how much food and weapons there are in Xiapi City.

Zhang Ran is also very curious about how much money the county magistrate and magistrate spent on ink!
Zhang Ran wanted to follow, Li You naturally readily agreed.

"In that case, brother Zhang will go with me!"

After Zhang Ran finished speaking, he ordered his followers to bring a horse to Zhang Ran.The two stepped onto the saddle bridge, only heard a "crack" of the whip, and the two rushed towards the direction where Xiang Yu left.

Li You and Zhang Ran rode their horses towards the residence of the county magistrate and magistrate.

Xiang Yu is a very rude person, and he is also very rash in his work.Therefore, Li You was actually a little worried when Xiang Yu came to search the mansion of these two greedy people alone.

After all, Xiang Yu has a carefree personality, and it is very likely that when searching, those corners and corners were neglected!
