Chapter 995: Farce

Although Quanliu City is located in the territory of Mengzhou, but in fact it is very close to the mountainous area in Yuezhou, Yuequan Creek from the Yuezhou Mountains down, after going out of the mountainous area, it surrounds the outside of Quanliu City, and finally converges into Jingquan Lake in the southwest of the city, which is a famous spot in Quanliu City.

In addition to the courtyards of famous families around Jingquan Lake, there are many ancient Taoist temples, which is a summer resort in Quanliu City, and also a holy place for autumn hunting, because from here, it is closest to the Yuezhou Mountains, and many towns and villages between the Jingquan Lake and the Yuezhou Mountains are prosperous because of the fur and mountain products.

Among them, the largest town of Shanhu has become a leader.

Shanhu Town is located in Shantao County, the current county commander is a widower who is nearly forty years old, surnamed Tang Mingjieren, Tang Lord and Yuecheng's Lord Wei are the same year, and Lord Wei is different, Lord Tang's children are stronger than Lord Wei, and Lord Wei has no children until now!

Tang Lord's eldest son Tang Borui has become his own son, the young couple is waiting for the second child, Tang Lord's wife gave birth to two children, a boy and a girl, the youngest daughter Tang Shuhui just reached this year, it is said that the little girl should be the most favored in the family, but in fact, the most favored is not her, nor her eldest nephew, but the little aunt who is two years older than her, the younger sister of Dr. Tang.

This Miss Tang San, Tang Xiangshu, is the old daughter of Lord Tang's parents, and she was born the most favored.

Even her eldest nephew, Tang Borui, who is expected to become a showman, is not as good as her face in front of Old Lady Tang and the old lady.

Lord Tang went to Beijing to report on his work, while the Tang family stayed in Shantao County to wait for news to see if he would stay in his original post or be promoted to another post.

After the year, the news was transmitted back to Shantao County, and Lord Tang was promoted.

Although he was promoted to the county magistrate of Liuquan County, although he was very close to Shantao County, the level of Liuquan County and Shantao County was very different, one was a first-class county, and the other was only a third-class county.

Liuquan County is in Liuquan City, which is the leading city in the vicinity, although it is not as good as Yuecheng and Xiangcheng, but it is located in the place where the official road must pass, and the prosperity of Liuquan City can be seen.

The seat of the county government in Shantao County is only a slightly larger Shanhu Town, so can this not be a big difference? Even if Shanhu Town is now famous because it is a concentration of mountain products and furs, it is still not as good as Liuquan City.

When Li Qianqian and his entourage came to the Liuquan City Post Station, the officials in charge of the post station stood outside and waited for each other.

"What's going on?"

It turned out that the family of the county magistrate of Liuquan County was still waiting for news from him, so Lai Zai did not leave, and Tang Jieren was still in Beijing and had not returned, so the Tang family naturally did not want to drive people away.

But the new county magistrate of Shantao County has arrived, and they can't go back, think about it, it's just a month or two, it's not cost-effective to rent a house for this, and the guest house is too expensive, so Mrs. Tang waved his hand, let's live in a post station.

The post chief of the post station knew that they were the family members of the new county order of Liuquan County, and did not dare to slack off, so he arranged the best yard for them to live temporarily, originally thought that they only needed to live for more than ten or twenty days, but who knows, they lived for nearly three months, and even the New Year was spent here.

However, the former county magistrate of Liuquan County has still not heard from him until now, which makes people have to wonder whether this person was involved, or whether he committed some crime and was taken into custody, otherwise why has there been no news at all from the past year to the present?

But looking at the appearance of his family, it doesn't look like a bad thing, he still bowed a year ago, and held a banquet a year later, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

This also made Old Lady Tang dare not send someone to drive the other party away.

In the same way, the postmaster did not dare to drive them away.

Because when they passed by before, Cai Neiguan and none of them lived in the post station, so they didn't know that there were people living in the Liuquan City Post Station for a long time, and the good yards were occupied.

What's going on? Can you not let them lose face in front of the Li Sect Master and the Third Young Master Li?

The post chief is also very embarrassed! After the official who came to announce the decree returned to the palace, he had to report to the emperor, and if he talked about this incident on the road, then he would definitely have to eat and hang, but I was afraid that Lord Tang's family would not be able to escape being accused.

But even so, the embarrassment is now! The post station is repaired every year, but there will always be something that cannot be caught, and at the end of last year, because there was a family of Tang Daren here, all the repairs had to be close to their family.

Originally, they were going to repair those empty yards, but Old Lady Tang said that there was no one to live in anyway, so what should they repair? The yards where they lived were all inhabited, and if they were not repaired, the snow would freeze them, whose fault would it be?

Therefore, all the repair expenses were diverted to repair the courtyard where the Tang family lived, and the empty yard was not repaired in time, and the roof tiles fell and the furniture was soaked in water, and the damp walls of the house became damp and moldy.

The post chief waited for Lord Tang to take office, and after allocating the repair funds, he would fix these problems for a while.

I haven't had time to start construction yet! I didn't expect a big man to come.

O angel of the decree!

Both sides can't be offended, now, what should I do?

After Li Qianqian listened to Liu Er's report, he couldn't help laughing!

What kind of luck did she have! But why was it so hard to spend the night? But it was impossible for them, a large crowd, to tell them to back down.

"Then let's talk about the grade!" Li Qianqian said to Liu Er, "Lord Tang is the county magistrate of Liuquan County, how many grades is that? What kind of grade is the Lord Cai who announced the decree? ”

"Lord Cai is the father-in-law of the fifth grade, and Lord Tang is the county commander of the seventh grade. Besides, if there are people who live here, are there people who are not official dependents?"

"Since Lord Tang brought his parents to take office with him, maybe there are some clansmen who are good at stammering with his parents?" Saying that, Li Qianqian flew up to the treetops next to the carriage, Liu Er flew up, Li Qianqian pointed to the roof that was obviously newly repaired, and said, "Look, that piece of house, there are more than two or three yards, and if you count it, there are about nearly twenty! If Lord Tang can give birth again, how many children can he have? How many yards can he occupy?"

Liu Er nodded thoughtfully, and Li Qianqian continued, "Our group, plus the Angel of the Decree and the Imperial Guard, will probably need three courtyards, and this is because we can't neglect the Angels and the Imperial Guards, so we need three courtyards, if we are all our own people, two courtyards are enough!"

Squeeze it and get through, besides, there are still people on duty at night!

But the Tang family occupies nearly 20 courtyards in the post station? Of course, these courtyards are large and small, the big ones have four entrances, and the small ones also have one entrance; if we say that there is a family living in one courtyard, then there are at least a dozen families attached to the family of Lord Tang?

The only people who really have the status of official dependents are the children, parents, brothers and sisters of Lord Tang, strictly speaking, they do not have the status of official dependents, let alone the Tang clan people who are attached to him!

Liu Er responded with a smile, turned around and left, Li Qianqian stood on the treetops, watching him recruit a few pigeon guards, and soon, the pigeon guards scattered after receiving the order.

Li Qianqian slowly got off the tree, and Chunjiang and the others planned to go to see the excitement.

Someone has come to the post station, and they may be driven out of the family?

When Mrs. Tang heard this, she could still sit still, and she came out holding the hand of the eldest grandson.

If he can enter the post station, and it is possible to drive them out, he must also be an official, and he plans to be more than the official rank, so he will use his own age to suppress people.

But who knows, there is an old man on the other side who is older than him, and Zhang Lao walked over slowly with the support of Jinyi.

Who is afraid of whom?

Well, everyone didn't want him to get out of the car, and he didn't bother to take care of these people. If you want him to say it, go directly to the city and buy a house to live in, saving trouble and time.

It's this wealthy style that makes everyone want him to get off the bus, and if this style provokes the other party, what should he do? I heard that the male master of his family is the county magistrate of Liuquan County! What if a day later, he will trouble them because of this matter, or attempt to encroach on their real estate in Liuquan City?

You must know that far water can't save near fire!

If you can not deal with evil, that is the best.

However, looking at the other party's style, it seems that I don't want to be friends!

Seeing Old Lady Tang come out, the post chief's face was not very good-looking, he glared at the senior post guard who followed behind Old Lady Tang viciously, this guy has been against him since he entered the post station to do things, and now it's good, he actually went directly to Old Lady Tang! Otherwise, how could the Tang family come out so quickly?

Mrs. Tang usually likes to sell the old the most, and she walks as slowly as a turtle.

The post chief was quite dissatisfied with the Tang family, although it was customary for officials to live in the post station in the past, but they had to pay for room and board, otherwise they would rely on the appropriation from above, it was not enough to support the operation of the post station, they had to entertain the officials and relatives passing by, the most important thing was the messengers, and the horses for them to use and replace, the Liuquan post station was a land post station, only need to raise horses, unlike some post stations that are both land and water, in addition to raising horses, you also have to maintain ships.

Every year, the head of the post will use the money allocated from the top of the year to make sure that each yard is inhabitable and not dilapidated to the point of becoming uninhabitable.

However, because of the Tang family's stay, he could only cling to their family, and the repair of the yard was deviated, resulting in the empty yard now almost uninhabitable, and even if it was, Mrs. Tang also asked him for a bribe in private, and bluntly said that when his son came back, he would ask his son to help the post chief transfer an easy errand.

The post chief's father has been here for more than 40 years, he has also been here for more than 20 years, and his son has also been here for a few years, almost the root of his family, and it is really a little unaccustomed to asking them to move their nests.

However, in order not to offend Old Lady Tang, he still gave it, but it was not much, so he didn't want to feed the old man's appetite.

But among the postmen, there was no shortage of people who wanted to climb up, and these people gave Old Lady Tang a lot of silver.

In order for their son and husband to get ahead, their family did not bother the Tang family, so the family lived in the post house, not only did not pay half a cent, but also accepted a lot of silver money and all kinds of flattering gifts.

It can be said that there is food and take!

Now they still want to go against the angel who came to announce the decree? Who gave them the courage to do this? Aren't they afraid that the angel will sue them in front of the emperor after returning to Beijing?

Since Mrs. Tang wants to die, then it is not good for him to stop others from dying, thinking so, he quietly withdrew from this Shura field and let Mrs. Tang go up.

Old lady Tang opened his mouth tremblingly, first said that his son was the county magistrate of Liuquan County, and then said that he was old and old, and asked the Ouchi Imperial Guard to retreat.

This Ouchi Imperial Guard is the eldest grandson of Xingguo Gong, and he has been the master of running around with Xingguo Gong since he was a child, his mouth is very powerful, and before he opened his mouth, Liu Er secretly gave him information in his ear, and this old lady Tang in front of him wants to play a scoundrel? That depends on whether he is willing to tolerate it!

After he asked Mrs. Tang to have a good time, he gave a few thoughtful gifts, "Mrs. Tang, I'll ask you a question, who does the official family refer to?"

Old Lady Tang said a lot, and he was panting and puffing to be even-breathed! Hearing this imperial guard's question, he was suddenly a little confused, what does this mean? Intuition told him that there was a trap in this, but he couldn't help but answer, and he didn't know how to answer, so he could only turn his head to look at the eldest grandson.

Tang Borui had only learned this, so he quickly gave an answer to the question of the imperial guard.

The imperial guard nodded, and said to the post chief, "Since the young master Tang said that the official family refers to the family and parents of the official, then ask the post chief to do a favor and drive out the people who are not official relatives in the post station! This is the post station, not the private property of an official, it is a place for the imperial court to rest the night for officials who pass through this place, and the messenger changes horses." ”

Before the post chief could say anything, Young Master Tang had already figured out what was going on, his face was slightly red, but he didn't say anything, Old Master Tang understood at this time.

Are they going to drive away from their people who are attached to him and to his son?

If they are driven away, there will be no one to accompany him to relieve his boredom in the future, and there will be no one to flatter him!

"No, no, no!" Old Lady Tang waved the cane in his hand and was about to hit the imperial guard who said this, but the imperial guard did not dodge, and directly hit a cane, which frightened Young Master Tang!

The imperial guard didn't dodge or dodge, he was beaten with a cane, which also frightened Old Lady Tang, he stupidly asked his grandson to snatch the cane, he didn't expect that the tall man in front of him didn't hide!

"Post chief, you see, this old man is attacking the military generals of the current dynasty in public, come here! Escort him to the yamen and hand him over to the county lieutenant here. ”

Without waiting for Mrs. Tang's grandfather and grandson to react, the guards came over to the two of them, tied up Mrs. Tang, and for the sake of his advanced age, they borrowed a car from the post chief, stuffed people into it, and drove to the county government of Liuquan County.

At this moment, how could Master Tang still stay, and hurriedly sent someone in to tell his grandmother and mother, he called someone to drive his own carriage, but when he was about to go out, he was stopped again.

"Is this your horse?" asked the guard, who had just been beaten, as he stopped the carriage and pointed to the two horses pulling it.

Tang Borui lifted the curtain and kicked at the coachman angrily, "What are you doing?

The coachman fell off the wheels and squatted on his buttocks.

"The eldest young master, the third young lady entered the city early in the morning and used all the horses, you, you are in a hurry to enter the city, and the little one borrowed two horses from the high post guard to travel. The coachman covered his sore buttocks with both hands and replied aggrievedly.

"You can't borrow a horse from a post station, post chief, doesn't the post man they said know the rules?"

"Know, know, he's been on an errand at the post station for nearly ten years, how can he not know this rule. ”

"Oh, then, come on, take down the high post guard, and send them to the yamen together! This horse doesn't need to be unloaded, just use this chariot to send people into the city!"

After speaking, two more guards immediately came over, escorted Gao Yichu into the car, and then one sat on the wheel to catch the car, and one person entered the car and stared at Gao Yipa, Liu Er watched Young Master Tang stupidly watching people get into the car, and they were all about to leave, but he still didn't move, and hurriedly pushed him, "Hurry up and get in the car, your grandfather is still waiting for you!"

Tang Borui got into the car like he had just woken up from a dream.

And this one, the post chief borrowed someone from the commander of the imperial guard, and the commander did not dare to be self-dictated, so he led him to see Lord Cai, and got Lord Cai's permission, so he led the imperial guard and the post guards to drive people away.
