When Lord Han returned to the county office, it was already dark, and the lights were still on in the yamen.

Seeing him come back, everyone hurriedly picked him up.

"My lord, did you catch the little lady?" They asked.

Lord Han's face was slightly embarrassed.

"Found it," he said, as he digressed and asked how things were going in the city.

“… The monks have been arrested... It's just that the ruffians who colluded with Monk Ningde before took the opportunity to make trouble..."The county Cheng said.

This is indeed a problem.

Han Xianling nodded.

"This is a short time, and I am afraid that the people will be uneasy as the days go by." Another official said.

“… Yes, that little lady just shook her hands and left, but it was hard to clean up the mess..."

“… Those people insisted that Master Ningde had meritorious work before, and he was robbed by this little lady..."

"....Today, someone privately set up a puja to worship Ningde, but fortunately, we went and dispersed it in time..."

There was a lot of discussion in the official hall.

Lord Han couldn't help but reach out and hold his sleeve.

"Everyone has worked hard, it's not early today, let's go rest first, we'll discuss it tomorrow." He said.

Everyone nodded, packed up their things and left.

"My lord, did you catch the lady yet?" The county man walked at the end, and when everyone was gone, he asked.

Lord Han sighed and shook his head.

"Our affairs, how can we entangle others." He said.

"My lord, but she killed Ningde." Xian Cheng said, frowning, "Didn't we say okay, please....that lady comes back, after all, she killed someone." It's not an exaggeration to go through the motions. ”

In fact, the most convenient and best way to deal with the aftermath of this matter is to push it on this little lady. They don't have to come forward to solve it. Watch from the sidelines, and then take the opportunity to calm down and guide the people, rather than them heading head-on.

Lord Han shook his head, reached out and pinched the cuffs again.

That's right, he said that he would do it at the time, but when he saw the lady, he didn't think it was good to do it.

"Since we have characterized it as a demon monk disaster, then this lady's murder is hoeing and driving away evil. Improper punishment, I asked and asked her to draw a charge, so it has nothing to do with her. Lord Han said.

"My lord, then we have a relationship!" Prefectural Cheng Express Road.

"It's not wrong that we have a relationship, it's a disaster caused by my majesty's laxity, if it was the lady who killed someone, the knife was also handed by me." Lord Han said, "Don't involve others in this matter, the official will solve it himself, at least that lady killed Ningde." The biggest problem has been solved. ”

Lord Han is good at everything, but he is obviously a literati but his martial spirit is too heavy.

The county shook his head.

"Yes." He bowed and bowed.

Walked out the door and stopped thinking of something. Sure enough, I saw Lord Han reaching out and pinching his sleeve again.

It's weird, what's in it?

The county man frowned and walked away.

Lord Han almost didn't sleep all night, and he had to lie down when it was almost dawn, and he came outside to report that someone had come to the house.

"I've heard that Suzhou knows about such a big thing." Mrs. Han said as soon as she entered the door, stretching out her hand to pat her heart, "What's the matter?" ”

"What did you say?" Lord Han didn't answer, but asked.

"There are all kinds of things to say, some people say that your government did it, and they also say that it is for profit." Mrs. Han said.

"It's ridiculous." Lord Han shook his sleeves and said.

"Of course I know it's ridiculous, but sir." Mrs. Han turned around and said hurriedly, "The three of them have become tigers." ”

Asked again, did the murderer catch it?

Master Han pinched his cuffs again, not wanting to answer this.

"Don't worry, I've got you covered." He said.

"How to deal with it?" Mrs. Han asked uneasily.

Lord Han didn't want to talk about this, so he changed the topic and asked the people in the family.

"The Yuan Dynasty went to his father-in-law." Mrs. Han said, "Next year is going to enter Beijing again, and I want to tell him, if I am afraid that our Yuan Dynasty will regret marriage, why not get married earlier, and have to delay." ”

"He is for the good of the Yuan Dynasty, the newlywed Yan'er, how to read good books." Lord Han said, "This is a reassurance of our Han family's conduct, even if we win, we will not regret the marriage." ”

"Our Yuan Dynasty is so good." Mrs. Han said, "The dividends of half a year in the capital have been sent again, and it is also said that Miss Banqin has prepared a place to live, and she will live directly when the Yuan Dynasty enters Beijing to prepare for the exam..."

"Half celery!" Lord Han shouted violently, interrupting Mrs. Han's words.

Mrs. Han was taken aback.

"It turned out to be half celery." Lord Han paced back and forth, looking excited, and stood up suddenly, "Is it a person?" Yes, yes, it's possible, everyone was born and went to the capital again...."

Mrs. Han was confused by what he muttered, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to ask, Lord Han thought about it and said the matter, and Mrs. Han was also startled when she heard it.

"How is this possible? Master, it's just a duplicate name, right? She said.

"It's possible." Lord Han said, "But you know what? The lady looked at me, and the first thing she said to me was the adult's surname Han? Where are they? ”

No one asks this sentence for no reason, and the purpose of asking is to confirm something.

Mrs. Han was also stunned.

"And after I said Suzhou, the girl named Banqin was surprised." Lord Han continued, looking at his wife and nodding.

"No, it won't." Mrs. Han didn't know what to say, so she just repeated.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"If that's the case, then the lady will give me this and it's not a random thing, then I'm going to give it a try." Lord Han said, his hand on the cuff, as if he had made up his mind.

"Try what?" Mrs. Han asked.

Lord Han didn't speak, and took out a stack of square paper from his sleeve.

"I know when the eclipse is." He said slowly.

"My lord! What are you talking about? ”

The officials and officials seated in the official hall all sat up in surprise and looked at Lord Han who was sitting down.

"That's right, I said I know when there's a solar eclipse." Master Han said, "This is our opportunity to use this to convince the people of our government." In one fell swoop, eliminate the hidden dangers left by the demon monks. ”

"Adults can deduce the calendar?" The county asked.

"I just look at the Wuyin calendar. As for deduction. I don't have that ability. Master Han shook his head and said, pushing the paper in his hand forward, "Someone else told me." ”

This thing was so sudden that everyone in the official hall was stunned.

"My lord, is that the lady?" Xian Cheng asked, his gaze couldn't help but fall on Lord Han's cuffs.

So that's what you put in your sleeve when you came back yesterday?

So the lady used this to exchange the adult for not being held accountable?

Lord Han nodded.

"Yes, she told me." "He said," she said. Give us another chance. ”

If that's true, it's a great opportunity to do it well.

But adults are too easy to deceive....

The people present couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"What if not?" The county Cheng asked solemnly.

That would become a big joke, and it would most likely be an opportunity for the remnants of Monk Ningde.

The risk is too great.

"Your Excellency came this time, did you just make a special trip to thank you?"

"Sure enough, it's surnamed Han."

"In that case, I'll give you a chance."

She won't hurt herself! She won't lie to herself!

Lord Han took a deep breath and raised his head.

"Absolutely." He said, "Announce to the public, and the whole city will prepare for the rescue ceremony." ”

The people in the official hall all looked at him with solemn and hesitant expressions.

"My lord, think twice." Xiancheng said.

"Yes, sir. In fact, even if you do nothing, it's nothing. Another official hesitated.

He left office a few years later. How does this Panjiang County have anything to do with him, but if this decision is made at this time, in case there is no solar eclipse, it will become a big joke, and the official career will be over.

If he was a little hesitant before, when he thought of this, Lord Han smiled instead.

"How dare you sacrifice your life for the sake of national affairs." He said, shaking the paper in his hand, "Okay, this matter is decided, an announcement will be issued in my name, the whole city will prepare for the rescue ceremony, and I will be responsible for the accident." ”

When the sky was slightly bright, the Yamen of Panjiang County opened, and a few errand officers came out, holding paper in their hands.

"You go over there, we'll go over here." The leader stretched out his hand and said.

And they all went their own way.

"What's it posting?"

"Are you talking ill of Master Ningde again?"

"I don't know what to say this time!"

The surrounding people followed the chatter, watching the servants post announcements on the street and rushed up.

"What did you write quickly?"

Soon the literate was pushed over, standing in front of the announcement and reading it out word by word.

The solar eclipse was postponed at noon on June 18, when the whole city was rescued.

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar.

"Another solar eclipse? Isn't it already in the past? ”

"Isn't Master Ningde accurate?"

"What is the government doing? Who said that? ”

"Is what the government said accurate?"

With the posting of the announcement, the noise spread all over the city.

"Han Wenzhong!"

In the official hall, the officials of Panjiang County stood with their hands bowed, and they could feel the anger of the upper-peak official in front of them without looking up.

"I don't know about this government, it turns out that you have become the master of Si Tiantai, and it is really rude to be a lower official."

The official's face was pale, he gritted his teeth and said, and he really gave a salute.

Lord Han hurriedly bowed his head and saluted.

"The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare." He said again and again, "Lord Dafu said with a smile. ”

"I'm kidding? Is it me joking, or is it joking! The official shouted, shaking a bulletin in his hand, "A quarter of the solar eclipse at noon on June 18, is this what the government said or what you said?" ”

"My lord, this is not a joke, according to the deduction calendar, there is indeed a solar eclipse." Lord Han said.

Before his words fell, he was smashed on the body by officials with an announcement.

"What if not?" The official shouted, "You don't chase down the murderer and appease the people, but instead do something to replace him, Han Wenzhong, Master Ningde is dead, are you planning to become a second master to replace him?" ”

"My lord, the lower officials dare not and will not confuse the public with evil words, this is deduced according to the calendar, not some god or Buddha prophecy, the lower officials remember the teachings of the saints, and do not say anything strange and confusing." Lord Han said, "It is precisely through this matter that the lower officials want the people to know and understand, so as not to be confused by the demon monks again." ”

Solar eclipses have always been deduced by the calendar. It's not unusual. It's not amazing to figure it out.

But. Compared with deducing the calendar, Lord Dafu cares more about the present.

"Then this house asks you, Master Ningde said yes, but he was beheaded in the name of a demon monk in front of everyone, you now say that there is a solar eclipse, if there is no solar eclipse, what are you going to do? Do you also use the name of a demon to apologize to the people by dying? Lord Ofu asked.

Lord Han, who had been scolding with his head down, raised his head at this moment.

"Okay." He said.

The official was stunned.

"Good what?" He asked.

"If there is no eclipse, I will die on the spot to apologize." Lord Han said.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.

"Your Excellency. My lord, be cautious..."

"My lord, why bother... If you have something to say..."

Immediately, a voice of consolation sounded in the hall, and the official's face turned blue with anger and nodded.

"Okay, okay, Han Wenzhong, you remember what you said." He said, throwing off his sleeves and striding away.

"Lord Han, why are you doing this..."

The other people in the official hall stomped their feet, complaining and helpless, and turned around to chase the official.

In the blink of an eye, Han Wenzhong was the only one left in the hall, Han Wenzhong straightened his clothes and looked outside and stood up straight.

Recently, Panjiang County has become very famous. First, Master Ningde was beheaded in public on the day of the solar eclipse, and then Panjiang County let go of the murderer. Instead, he began to inquire about Master Ningde's fallacies to confuse the public, and before the people could straighten out the relationship between these two things, the Panjiang County government threw out another shocking news.

The county ordered Han Wenzhong to perform the moment of the solar eclipse, and made an oath to apologize for his sins on the spot if he was false.

When Han Wenzhong entered the back house, Mrs. Han cried and greeted him.

"Master, why do you bother! This thing has been done, and it is not the time you said, if there is a mistake at that time, even if it is detrimental to your reputation, it is still a shirk, you throw out this kind of thing now, how can it end! She cried.

"Father."

There was also a young man in the room who shouted, a little surprised.

"When did my father get the calendar?"

Looking at him, Han Wenzhong smiled.

"I didn't deduce it, I was told by others." He said.

"Oh yes, that person, that person may be from the Banqin family in your capital, and your father believes them so much." Mrs. Han thought of something and hurriedly pulled her son to wipe away her tears and said.

Half celery?

Han Wonchao was stunned.

Lord Han described to him the description of the woman that day.

"Father, I haven't seen Banqin's family, so I don't recognize what you said." Han Yuanchao said with a wry smile.

"What about this half-celery?" Mrs. Han hurriedly said, urging Lord Han to describe it again.

Han Yuanchao's face was a little complicated when he heard this.

"Speaking of which, it's a bit similar, I can't even remember." He said, laughing again and nodding at his mother, "The age and accent are very similar. ”

Mrs. Han immediately breathed a sigh of relief, put her hands together and chanted the Buddha, and Lord Han also nodded and exhaled.

"You're tired too, go and rest, I'll have a few words with the Yuan Dynasty." He said.

Mrs. Han was really tired of being frightened these days, so she was supported by the maidservant.

Only the father and son were left in the room, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

"Yuan Dynasty, this half-celery is not the half-celery you recognize, right?" Lord Han spoke first.

Han Wonchao bowed his head.

"Father, the child just can't remember, I haven't seen it a few times... So...," he said.

Lord Han didn't speak, just looked at him.

After a moment of silence.

"Yes, according to my father's description, this half-celery is not the half-celery I recognize in the capital." Han Yuanchao raised his head and said.

Therefore, it is a stranger who is not acquainted, not a person who treats him special because of his acquaintance.

So this prediction ....

Lord Han's expression changed slightly, so this time it was a gamble...

"Father, do you regret it?" Han Wonchao asked as he stepped forward.

Lord Han turned his head to look at him and smiled.

"Where righteousness is, although tens of millions of people go to me." He said.

…………………………………

Whether it is someone who is anxious to pull the moon and push the sun, or someone who recites the Buddha and asks God to wait for time to stand still, June 18 is still unhurried and comes in their own steps.

In front of the city gate of Panjiang County, there are many people and the sea is impassable.

This time no one restricts the passage of people, but no one wants to pass.

Standing from morning to noon, under the June sun. The people were sweating profusely.

"That's it. Is it like a solar eclipse? ”

"In the end, it is Master Ningde's immeasurable merits. Whether the government's words are accurate depends on today. ”

"If there is really a solar eclipse, I will believe whatever the government says in the future."

"If they fool us, they will be the murderers who killed Master Ningde!"

This kind of discussion is like the wind rustling through the bamboo forest.

Han Wenzhong stood in the middle of the city gate, his official uniform was neat, and he described it solemnly, I don't know if it was because it was too hot, and the officials and officials around him were standing a little far away from him. From a distance, he was alone and conspicuous.

“… I'm afraid that you will have to worry about it when the time comes. ”

Several officials under the pergola on the city wall were laughing at a seated official, and pointed to the maid next to him to fan quickly.

The seated official sneered and looked at the people under the city gate.

"The credibility of the government has been ruined, and I am just doing my best, as for the result, whether the people will believe me, I am not sure." He said lightly, "I can play around with the top, but I can deceive and be unpopular." ”

"It's hard work for adults." The officials nodded.

"How about not working hard? Could it be that the government of Panjiang County was set on fire by the people. Is there any brilliance on the face of this house? Lord Ofu said angrily.

Officials were again in a flurry of yes, yes.

"What is he doing?" Dafu said suddenly, leaning forward.

Everyone was busy looking over. Seeing Han Wenzhong commanding two messengers to stick a bamboo pole on the ground, a shadow was immediately cast on the ground.

"You can watch the hour, a moment at noon, if you are not allowed, the official should apologize." Han Wenzhong said loudly, stretching out his hand and pointing at the bamboo pole. [Note 1]

The audience was in an uproar again, and they all looked at the projection of the bamboo pole, and the projection moved little by little, as if it was about to reach noon in the blink of an eye.

"This..."The big mansion on the city gate turned red and stretched out his finger to point.

"Adults are angry, adults are angry." The people around were busy, fanning and patting.

The official of the great mansion could not be calmed down, pushed away the crowd and walked quickly to the city wall, stretched out his hand and pointed down.

"I'm angry! Han Wenzhong, this guy will really die sooner or later..."He shouted.

Before the words fell, a steep gust of wind struck, causing everyone to panic, and then the bright sky became dark.

"The sun is getting dark! The sun is getting dark! ”

The shouts of countless people came from under the city gate, roaring like thunder, overshadowing the rest of the words of the Lord of the Great Mansion.

And the rest of the words of the lord of the mansion could not be spoken.

He looked up at the sky with a horrified expression, and all his thoughts faded with the black sun that had disappeared one by one.

Solar eclipse! Solar eclipse! Sure enough, the solar eclipse!

"Hurry, hurry, rescue quickly!"

He shouted loudly, grabbing the waist knife of the servant on the side and striking the city wall.

The sky was dark, the city was boiling, and the gongs and drums were ringing in unison.

Mrs. Han, who had been kneeling in the courtyard, leaned over and cried, kowtowing again and again.

"Thank you Bodhisattva for blessing, thank you Bodhisattva for blessing."

Behind her, the servants of the house were already screaming and running, beating the gongs and drums that had been prepared.

The dim sight, full of gongs and drums screaming, Han Yuanchao, who was standing in the crowd, was squeezed around, his eyes fell in front of him through the figures, and he couldn't help grinning when he looked at his father who was standing more and more straight.

At this time, in the capital, looking at the sun that suddenly disappeared from the sky, the whole city vibrate.

From the palace of the Son of Heaven to the small people, they all ran in a panic, shouting, gongs and drums, screams, and crying.

Standing on the second floor of Desheng Building, Qin Shisanlang snapped open the window.

Chun Ling and the others who were lying on the ground behind them screamed even more.

"I don't know if the officials of Si Tiantai will tell the emperor that this is the credit of their prayer to God and Buddha." Qin Shisanlang said with a smile.

The little lady Zhu who came over from the side also smiled and looked up at the sky in this dim darkness.

"They should say that things in heaven are not expected, and it is natural that there are deviations, and then they will ask the Son of Heaven to cultivate himself and cultivate virtue to thank God." She said.

Qin Shisanlang laughed, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter, and people couldn't help but lean out of the window.

"Oh my God," he said.

Everyone looked up at the sky, but he looked down, and Zhu Xiaoniang looked curiously, and her expression couldn't help but be stunned.

In the chaotic street, four lanterns suddenly lit up, and a carriage was slowly moving forward, left and right, and the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and through the lantern, it could be seen that a young woman was sitting inside, and she was like a star in the darkness, and she was so bright that she could not be seen directly.

Whose daughter is this?

"Going out in broad daylight with lanterns, is it possible to anticipate it in advance?" She couldn't help but say.

No one answered her words, and Qin Shisanlang beside him turned around and walked out quickly.

Little Lady Zhu looked back with a little stunned, and saw that Qin Shisanlang, who had always been fluttering and unhurried, had already begun to trot, opened the door, and the sound of footsteps came from the porch.

Little Lady Zhu retracted her gaze and looked downstairs on the street again, looking at the bright color that was slowly moving in the chaotic running and screaming crowd.

"Is this what he said about her?" She smiled and said to herself.
