Chapter 2457: Chapter 2457: I’ve Had Enough of Him for a Long Time
Anyway, Brother Qing Ke’s mouth has always been very tight, there’s no harm in letting Brother Qing Ke know about this matter, right?
In short, An Que’s status as a scholar has been stripped, that point is certain, as for the rest, even if he leaks the secret, the County Magistrate won’t say anything about it, right?
Yes, that’s it, he needs to quickly inform Brother Qing Ke.
Thinking so, he acted promptly and hurried off.
And An Que, just as his classmate predicted, had only walked halfway home when he remembered that his classmate might have deceived him, so he turned back again, planning to visit Brother Qing Ke’s house.
Anyway, from An Clan Village to Brother Qing Ke’s house is not far, walking, it would be half an hour to get there.
To be on the safe side, he didn’t mind making the return journey that took an hour; it’s better than being deceived and losing so much grain income every year, right?
Although, he didn’t think anyone would plot against these lands under his name, after all, he hadn’t heard of anyone in the village passing the scholar examination this year.
He was well-informed about An Clan Village; just a few scholars, many wanted to pass the scholar examination but none actually succeeded.
But he was always cautious, needing to understand everything to know what the next step should be.
…
Half an hour later, in another village.
“Brother Qing Ke, did you remember everything I told you?” Ziyu looked intently at his classmate Brother Qing Ke, speaking cautiously.
Afraid that he hadn’t explained clearly yet, An Que would come over, after all, that fellow had unusual scheming.
Otherwise, how in these years he took the most grain tax and no one opposed him, isn’t it because he knows how to behave, managing both above and below?
However, now, no matter how much he wants to manage, it’s useless; this was a direct order from Mr. Shi, what else can he do?
Brother Qing Ke’s eyes turned, somewhat disbelieving his classmate’s words.
“Brother Ziyu, is it really Mr. Shi personally… told you?”
He couldn’t figure out who An Que had offended, to make Mr. Shi strip his scholar status.
Know that the County Magistrate doesn’t have that much authority, directly removing a scholar, this requires managing several areas.
So, who An Que offended wasn’t Magistrate Shi, but rather some higher official behind County Magistrate Shi.
“Yes, Mr. Shi personally told me.”
Ziyu said confidently but still had to caution Brother Qing Ke.
“Brother Qing Ke, although it was Mr. Shi who told me to do this, you must not speak of this to outsiders, An Que doesn’t even know who he offended, in any case, just make sure we have this matter handled, after all, I’ve long been displeased with An Que.”
Indeed, he had long been displeased with An Que’s conduct style, a scholar full of schemes, almost calculated everyone around him.
Hearing this, Brother Qing Ke’s eyes flashed further.
An Clan Village is definitely a special place in the county, even before, knowing clearly that An Que used his scholar status to gather wealth, swindling the people over and over, Mr. Shi just turned a blind eye.
But now, Mr. Shi is so decisive in wanting to take down An Que, and doesn’t even intend to hide it from us scholars, directly letting Brother Ziyu handle this matter.
