Chapter 171: Finding the Door Without Opening Your Eyes
Just when the stalemate was at a standoff, Lang Zhong had been invited.
After Lang Zhong looked at the burned part of the child, he said: "It's very serious, the old man prescribes a prescription and applies it to the affected area, you can't wear clothes during these days, and you have to be careful when you sleep." ”
Without waiting for the man to say, Xiao Jing took out the copper plate from his body and paid the consultation fee.
After Langzhong left, the man still didn't have the heart to give up, and faced the question of asking for compensation to Emperor Hongzhi.
"Three hundred taels... Not even one copper plate is missing..."
......
The stove in Xie Zhi's study in the county government was burning warm, and Xie Zhi was bored reading the classics inside.
Menzi led the rather stout man in.
"Zhixian, this brother said he was looking for you."
Xie Zhi put down the book, glanced at the person, made sure that there was no memory of this person in his memory, and asked, "Your Excellency?" ”
The man didn't speak, but just took out a waist card from his body and lit it up in front of Xie Zhi.
I've never seen pork, but I've seen pigs run, and this is something that only royal officials can afford.
Xie Zhi got up and walked to the man's side, and after seeing the words Jin Wuwei on it, he laughed and said with a smile: "It's hard work, I don't know what to call it?" ”
The man replied, "Wu Meng." ”
Jin Wuwei was directly guarding the emperor, and Wu Meng appeared here, so it can be seen that Emperor Hongzhi was also nearby.
Xie Zhi asked bluntly, "Your Majesty has arrived?" ”
Xu was because he had been on an errand in the palace for a long time, Wu Meng had no other superfluous expression on his face, and replied: "Your Majesty has encountered some trouble in the tea shop in the south of the city, and Xie Zhixian will bring the official to go over immediately." ”
It is not easy for Xie Zhi to achieve the current situation of being generally clean and upright, which is not open-eyed, dare to smear him.
If he knew, he would have beaten him so much that he didn't even know his mother.
When Xie Zhi was surprised, he was a little anxious and called Li Jia outside.
He Sanyou works in Yunzhongwei, and Li Jia is in charge of the yamen here.
Li Jia is more reckless, and he can do everything he hands over.
As soon as Li Jia entered the door, he asked urgently: "Zhixian, what are your orders?" ”
Since Emperor Hongzhi came to him to make a move, it can be seen that he did not bring a guard of honor, and since this is the case, he does not want to be known.
Naturally, Xie Zhi did not strictly understand the identity of Emperor Hongzhi to Li Jia, but only ordered, "Gather the brothers and go to the south of the city with this county." ”
Due to the existence of pottery workshops in the south of the city, there are many homeless people and merchants, and fights and brawls are common, and Li Jia must often go to the south of the city to solve these things.
When Xie Zhi ordered this matter, Li Jia didn't think much about it, and after answering, he went out to gather people.
When Li Jia gathered the manpower, Xie Zhi had already put on a coat and walked out of the study.
Just came out of the study, He Liang hurried over and asked worriedly, "Young master, what's wrong?" ”
When Emperor Hongzhi came, it was necessary to inform Zhu Houzhao that there was no control, and if he let himself go too far, the image that he had built up with great difficulty would be all in vain.
Xie Zhi was by He Liang's side, and whispered to him to inform Zhu Houzhao in advance to be relieved.
Hurrying all the way, when Xie Zhi rushed to the tea shop in the south of the city with the officials, the man was still in a stalemate with Emperor Hongzhi.
Li Jia opened the way, and Xie Zhi then strolled in.
As soon as I entered the tea shop, after seeing Emperor Hongzhi and Xie Qian sitting at the door, I was about to salute subconsciously, but was stopped by a look from Emperor Hongzhi.
Since there is no need to see a courtesy, then Xie Zhi will also be official.
"What's going on? What about the shopkeeper? Xie Zhi asked aloud.
The man took a step forward from the side and said, "The villain is exact, I have seen the county master." ”
Xie Zhi raised his hand and said with a smile: "What is the shopkeeper, is the business good?" ”
The man pulled up a smile, and replied with a smile: "Tuozhi County's blessing, well, the child's mother should also be well, she can also help the villain run this tea shop, and the villain is ready to send the child to the school." ”
When he said this, the man's face was full of happiness.
This man's name is He Er, who came here with his wife and children to escape the famine, and the eldest son died on the road, leaving only the younger son and his sick wife.
When Xie Zhi went to the pottery workshop, he happened to meet He Er's family, who had just come.
Xie Zhi also saw that his wife was sick and his son was young, and he went to the pottery workshop to talk to the woman, at the beginning, he could only be an apprentice, and he was only in charge of three meals, and he had no money to earn, and his wife had no money to get medicine, so he borrowed his silver to build this tea shop.
The merchants who came here to buy porcelain were also served by this tea shop, who did not earn much silver, but they also had a living income, which could help his wife to see a doctor and get medicine.
Look at this, how good the heart is.
Xie Zhi restrained his smile and asked, "What's the matter?" Let's talk about it! ”
He Er immediately spoke, and said with a sad face: "The child accidentally splashed some water on this son, and this son had to let the villain accompany him for three hundred taels, how can there be so many villains..."
Before He Er finished speaking, the man crossed Erlang's legs and said: "You are the county magistrate in the clouds, even if you are the magistrate, it is not easy to make it, three hundred taels, you must pay three hundred taels, otherwise this matter will not be over today..."
Such a benevolent brother has a big enough appetite.
Xie Zhi pulled up the man's clothes and asked, "Splashed water?" ”
I don't know how much water there is, Xie Zhi searched for a long time and didn't find a trace.
He no longer insisted on this topic, but asked He Er, "What about Ling Lang?" ”
This person shouted that he was splashed with water, so the boy from the He family was only five or six years old, at least he had splashed some water, right?
Asked this question, He Er was even more worried, sighed, beat his chest and said: "It's burned, it's all to blame on the villain, if the villain has some ability, he doesn't have to let the child suffer this crime..."
Xie Zhi put his hand on He Er's shoulder and asked, "Is it serious?" ”
He Er didn't speak, nodded and answered.
Xie Zhi no longer asked who it was, but smiled with the person and asked, "I don't know the name of this benevolent brother?" ”
The man was smug and replied, "Have you heard of the Jiangnan Wang family?" Wang Jin. ”
Xie Zhi doesn't worry about business matters, and Xie Zhi doesn't know what the Jiangnan Wang family is.
Regarding Wang Jin's pride, Xie Zhi shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”
Xie Zhi really hadn't heard it, he was telling the truth, Wang Jin was a little deflated, and he no longer showed off his family, and asked, "How are you going to deal with this?" You don't need silver, and you can discount it into porcelain. ”
Don't look at the fact that there are so many merchants gathered in the south of the city, but not everyone can buy porcelain.
Xie Zhi didn't see any anger, and asked with a smile: "You said you want to compensate three hundred taels?" It's not expensive. ”
Wang Jin had excitement on his face, and he didn't wait for him to speak.
Xie Zhi said again: "The boy of the He family was burned, and he didn't ask you much, one thousand taels... This dress is worth three hundred taels, a human life is worth one thousand taels after all, this county sees that you are also from the family, and it is not difficult for you, give you a fold, five hundred taels, He shopkeeper lost your clothes, you have to take two hundred taels, right? ”
Wang Jin originally thought that Xie Zhi was here to call the shots for him, but he didn't expect that the object of decision was replaced by He Er.
Wang Jin was angry, got up and pointed at Xie Zhi, and said, "What a bullshit knows the county, do you know who it is?" ”
This Wang Jin is definitely a veritable straw bag.
Although Xie Zhi's official position is small, it is also appointed by the imperial court, and he dares to insult him in person?
Buckle one to defy the court and kill him on the spot.
Before Xie Zhi could say anything, Li Jia on the side had already slapped him.
I don't know how hard Li Jia used, and with a slap, Wang Jin was knocked to the ground, and the corners of his mouth were also broken by teeth.
His entourage supported his young master, and wanted to accuse Li Jia angrily, but was glared back by Li Jia.
"Two hundred taels, those two hundred taels, you go, otherwise, the county will have to send someone to your house to ask for this money, but in the meantime, you have to go to the yamen for a few days of food, of course, this meal is free..."
Although Xie Zhi didn't know how famous the Jiangnan Wang family was, Wang Jin was dressed in gorgeous clothes and was so arrogant, he must not be a child of an ordinary family.
Wang Jin didn't take action for a long time, and Xie Zhi ordered: "Since this brother doesn't want to take this silver, then bring it back, the sky is getting colder and colder, and there will be no more frozen prisoners to death again." ”
Xie Zhi was completely scaring Wang Jin, and the county government prison had never locked up anyone, so how could anyone freeze to death.
Xie Zhi's intimidation still had some effect after all, Wang Jin quickly took the silver ticket and came out, found two hundred, and handed it to Xie Zhi through gritted teeth.
Xie Zhi accepted the silver ticket, gave it to He Er, and said, "Treat the injury first, and save the rest for emergencies." ”
took the silver ticket, Xie Zhi said again: "Order, my Yunzhong ceramics will no longer be sold to the Jiangnan Wang family, and these two people can also let them leave Yunzhong as soon as possible..."
