As soon as Zhang Zhen walked out of Wu Xiaoran's courtyard, someone informed him to go to the second hall in the backyard of the county government, saying that Wu County ordered him to see him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Zhen rushed all the way to the second hall, and there were already many people waiting in the hall. Wu Yanpeng, the commander of Tongyu County, sat on the top, and on the left sat a sick old man, his body was dozing off on the chair, and the corners of his slightly open mouth were still drooling. A middle-aged man on the right with a big face and a plate was pacing back and forth, looking very impatient.

When Zhang Zhen entered the second hall, several people looked at him, all of them a little curious.

Wu Xian Ling cleared his throat and said, "Zhang Zhen, you come forward." ”

When Zhang Zhen heard this, he walked to the center of the second hall, and as soon as Wu Xianling waved his hand, a servant immediately walked up with an official robe, waist knife and waist card. Wu Zhixian motioned for Zhang Zhen to take it over, and said loudly: "Change this clothes in a while, from today on, you will be the new head catcher of our Tongyu County." ”

Zhang Zhen saluted and said: "Xiaomin Xie Wu is promoted, and he will be loyal to his duties and serve the court in the future." ”

Wu Xianling said with a smile: "Now that you have become a head catcher, you can no longer call yourself a small people." ”

Zhang Zhen was just about to speak, but the middle-aged man next to him, who had been looking at Zhang Zhen's big face with cold eyes, suddenly stood up, and asked in a cold tone towards Wu County Ling, "What is this kid doing?" What did Xing Jianxun make wrong? Why did you remove him? ”

Wu Xian Ling beckoned to the middle-aged man and motioned for him to come over, but the middle-aged man stood there and ignored it. Wu Xianling was helpless, so he had to get up, walked to the middle-aged man's side, and whispered a few words in his ear.

The middle-aged man glanced at Wu Xian Ling, and said suspiciously: "Really? ”

Wu County ordered: "This official can still lie to you." ”

The middle-aged man glanced at Zhang Zhen a few more times, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Okay, it's okay to let him hold it for two days first, I'll go and make peace with Fan Meng." Then he said in a weird manner: "Lord Wu, if there is such a matter of dismissal and replacement of personnel in the future, you had better discuss it with me first, no matter how much you are the leader of a county, you can't dictate it-"

Wu Xian Ling smiled and said, "Certainly, definitely." The middle-aged man snorted and sat down in his seat.

Wu County Ling also returned to the top, and before he sat down, he saw Zhang Zhen's suspicious face, so he stretched out his hand to compare with the middle-aged man, and said: "This is our Kong County Lieutenant of Tongyu County, and also your direct boss, you should have more dealings with Kong County Lieutenant in the future and listen to his instructions." ”

Then he gestured to the old man who was dozing off in his seat, and said, "This is Liang Xiancheng." ”

When the old man heard someone calling him, he suddenly woke up, stretched out his hand and wiped a handful on the corner of his mouth, and looked around in a daze with a pair of old eyes, and said, "Huh? Is it over? Oh. As he spoke, he stood up and arched his hand, turned around and was about to walk out, when he passed by Zhang Zhen's side, the old man looked at Zhang Zhen curiously.

"Hey! Ay! Liang County Cheng! Wu Xian Ling hurriedly stopped, Liang Lao Xian Cheng stopped, looked back at Wu Xian Ling blankly, and said, "What else does Lord Wu command?" ”

Wu Xian Ling stretched out his hand to Zhang Zhen and said, "This young man is the new head catcher of our Tongyu County, and Liang County Cheng will have to carry more in the future." ”

Liang Laoxian turned around slowly, looked at Zhang Zhen's eyes, patted him on the shoulder happily, and said, "Oh, this is our new head catcher, okay!" Good! Young heroes, materials that can be made! Young man, do a good job, the future is limitless. ”

Although they were all official tones with little nutrition, Zhang Zhen still bowed down to show respect and listen to the teachings.

Liang Laoxian Cheng finished his polite words, and then ordered Wu County: "Xiaguan is old and weak, and his energy is low, Lord Wu, if there is nothing in the yamen, Xiaguan will go back first." ”

Wu Xianling nodded and said: "Okay, this time I called everyone over to inform everyone, our county Yaxin has changed the head catcher, and you will be more familiar with each other in the future." There's nothing else to do, let's all disperse. ”

Everyone retreated one after another, and the lieutenant of Kong County also stood up and prepared to leave.

"Knock-knock-knock-"

The drum suddenly sounded three times, thick and loud, and the sound vibrated the roof tiles.

Almost all of them stopped, looking at each other.

Wu Yanpeng was also startled when he heard the sound of the drums, since the Black Tiger Gang started to gain momentum, he, the yamen, did nothing, and the people of Tongyu gradually stopped complaining, and they all knew that it was better to use more money to find the Black Tiger Gang when they were in trouble to find Master Wu.

Today, the drum of injustice is sounding again, and there must be something strange in it.

Wu Yanpeng naturally remembered what Zhang Zhen said about the murder in the Black Tiger Gang compound, his expression moved, he suddenly took a breath of cold air and stroked his forehead with his hand, and said with a painful look: "Hey-this official was infected with a cold yesterday, and he has a terrible headache at this time, so he can't be a director, you go and see who is beating the drum and complaining, and the official will go back to rest first." Sizzle-oops! My head hurts—"

As he spoke, he ignored the reactions of the crowd and walked straight into the back hall, with a smooth step.

Lieutenant Kong looked at Wu Zhixian's actions, his eyes rolled, and then he walked to Liang Laoxiancheng's side, and said with a serious expression: "Is the autumn grain about to be harvested, this year's situation is good, the rain is also smooth, and Tian Fu must at least be harvested eighty percent." Liang Lao County, you have to quickly sort out the household registration book, those gangs are very difficult to deal with, if the tax collectors are in trouble collecting taxes, you can tell me. ”

Liang Laoxian nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Hmm! As for the household registration, the official has already instructed the people of the household to work day and night to clean it up. But just like the county lieutenant Kong said, those people are so difficult to entangle, and the annual tax collection is really a headache for the official, the county lieutenant Kong, why don't we go to the official's house to discuss this matter first? This official has just asked someone to bring back a pound of Longjing before the rain, and he just asked the county lieutenant Kong to taste it. ”

As soon as Lieutenant Kong slapped his face, he stepped forward and grabbed Liang Laoxiancheng's arm and walked out, saying eagerly as he walked: "That's great!" Don't hide it from the old county, those wines and meats, on weekdays, are just for entertainment, I really don't want to see those things, just drink tea, especially Longjing. This Longjing, the higher the temperature, the warmer the day, the worse the tea that comes out, it has to be the tea picked before the rain, and it is called a fragrant drink! Walk! I've got to try it! ”

The drums outside were still ringing, and Zhang Zhen said helplessly: "Two adults, the injustice drums outside ......"

Lieutenant Kong turned around and said: "Zhang Zhutou, I have an important matter to discuss with Liang Lao County Cheng at the moment, go back first, and you can handle it yourself." Who is that, Yang Bantou and Xing Jianxun, the two of you are old and experienced, and you have to do your best to assist Zhang Zhutou, you are all colleagues, ah, you must help each other, be kind and friendly. ”

While speaking, the two of them had already left the second hall, and County Lieutenant Kong waved his hand and said, "Zhang Zhutou, if you don't understand anything, ask the county lord for instructions." Before the words fell, the two had already left the house and disappeared.

Zhang Zhen was stunned for a moment, and secretly sighed that the thickness of the faces of these officials was really breathtaking.

The rest of the officials in the hall all looked at Zhang Zhen, and the Yang Bantou named by the Lieutenant of Kong County was a middle-aged man who looked old and serious, and he walked out and said to Zhang Zhen: "Zhang Zhutou, look at the injustice drum outside......

Zhang Zhen's face was a little unsightly, he came to be the head catcher mainly to deal with Fan Meng and the Black Tiger Gang, and he didn't really come to catch thieves and handle cases, Wu Zhixian was quite calculating, and he immediately became the shopkeeper if he didn't interfere.

He is a new head catcher, and several officials in the yamen are sick and running, this matter is reasonable, and he has to go next, Zhang Zhen gritted his teeth and said: "Go and see!" ”
