Gambling on this kind of thing can be big or small, if the new inspector escorts Chen Jingjun to the state government on official business, the old man of Zhizhou may really sentence Chen Jingjun to 100 rods and 3,000 miles according to the "Laws of the Qing Dynasty". And if the county officials of such a case are to be decided, from the Yangzhou prefect Yamen to the Huaiyang Dao Yamen, and then to the Jiangsu Provincial Judge, they will generally not be dismissed.

After all, there are dead people, and the people are too angry.

Chen Youdao was so anxious that he hurriedly went to discuss with Dean Gu of Fengshan Academy. As a result, Dean Gu had a distant relative living in the countryside and two brothers split up their family, and went to the countryside early in the morning to help divide the family property. Chen Youdao could only let his eldest son go to Dean Gu, and he ran to the yamen of the inspection department by himself, but the new inspector went out to get people again with the soap Li archers, and one of the archers and a white servant who stayed behind didn't even let him in.

Thinking that the Zhong family brother who opened the oil mill was Su Jueming's uncle who ran back from Yizhen, Chen Youdao rushed to the doctor and went to find Zhong Da Zhong Er. As soon as the new inspector took office, he took people everywhere, and several notices were posted, Zhong Da Zhong Er, who was not very bold, didn't dare to agree to help him find Su Jueming, and asked Su Jueming to help him intercede with the inspector.

But for Chen Youdao, this is the only way in front of him, and he begged for tears and snot in the oil mill for most of the day, until the boss of his family invited Dean Gu back from the countryside, and then stumbled to the pawnshop not far from the Yamen of the Inspection Division, and told Dean Gu who had just sat down about the third child of his family.

On the way back from the countryside, Dean Gu had already asked Chen Da about the ins and outs of the matter, and saw that the two supervisors in the town, the horse shopkeeper of Renhe Mixing, the shopkeeper Feng of Buzhuang, and He Yuanbao, a large landowner of Hejiazhuang who had a talented family at home, had all arrived, so he put down the teacup and said, "Brother Chen, this matter is not easy to do!" Early in the morning, Master Han led the Soap Li archers to your house to lock and take Jing Jun first, this is to take your Jing Jun Liwei. ”

"I met him in Pingshui, I didn't provoke him, I didn't offend him, why did he focus on my Jingjun!" The more Chen Youdao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he burst into tears as he spoke.

"Dean Chen, don't be upset, you can't blame others for coming to this point, you can only blame you for being too doting. I don't read books well, and I don't go to learn a craft, I am idle all day long, and I gamble with a few splashes in Lujia Lane. If he keeps to himself, can this inspector who just came to embarrass him? ”

"Shopkeeper, what's the use of talking about this now!" Shopkeeper Feng hurriedly said.

The rich man He also saw that the third child of the Chen family was not pleasing to the eye, but he didn't want to put salt on Chen Youdao's wound, so he looked at the inspection department yamen diagonally opposite, and muttered: "Everyone, you tell me that Master Han just arrived yesterday, how did he know that Jing Jun set up a gamble as soon as he arrived?" ”

"Lao He, this inspection master is prepared, before the others arrive, they will first send their family and the nephew of the Zhong family brothers, Su Jueming, to quietly come to us for an unannounced visit, I dare to conclude that Jing Jun's matter was told to Master Han after Su Jueming heard about it!"

"That little son of Dean Su?"

"Who else but him?"

"Dean Chen, why are you still sitting here since you have this relationship, hurry up and find Zhong Da Zhong Er!"

"I looked for it, Zhong Da Zhong Er didn't help, saying that his nephew hired a boat to go to Fu'an early in the morning, and he didn't know when he would come back."

"Did you go at all?"

"It seems to be going to Fuan."

"What did he do in Fuan......"

Wang Jiansheng secretly thought that Chen Jingjun should have been brought to justice a long time ago, so he raised his head coldly and said: "Everyone, this matter is not so simple, in the afternoon, the archers in the yamen struck two gongs along the street, and asked all those who went to Lujiaxiang to gamble to come to the yamen to surrender, and Master Han will be lightly punished." If you don't turn yourself in, you will be severely investigated when the soap archers lock people up and take them to the yamen. Whoever dares to run will send a sea fishing official document, and the chief of Baozheng will be sat down. ”

"Has anyone turned themselves in?" The rich man asked curiously.

"Yes, there were three of them." The shopkeeper Xie put down the teacup, looked at Chen Youdao with sympathetic eyes, and said, "Not only have people turned themselves in, but even the Chen family in Jiaogang has come." ”

"Coming to complain?"

"It should be."

"What about Master Han, has Master Han returned to the Yamen?"

"I'm back, Master Gu came back to the yamen before he came, and he took three more people, all wearing handcuffs and shackles." Shopkeeper Xie paused, and then said: "Since I arrived here in the morning, I have taken more than a dozen locks before and after, and Chu Chenggui's mother-in-law is borrowing the pot stove of Old Man Yang's house to help cook prison rice. ”

The new inspection is to lock people everywhere, but the locks are all scoundrels!

Dean Gu felt that this was not a bad thing, and he really didn't want to care about it, but he was the most prestigious gentry in the town, and he had been friends with Chen Youdao for many years, so he couldn't stand by and watch, touched his chin and asked, "Brother Chen, how did Jing Jun's rice go?" ”

"I asked my second child to send it."

"Confused!"

"What's wrong?" Chen Youdao asked subconsciously.

"There are more than a dozen people in the yamen at this time, and everyone else eats the food cooked by Chu Chenggui's wife, and Jing Jun eats the food sent by the family, even if Chu Chenggui doesn't say anything to you face, what will the other soap Li archers in the yamen think?"

"Dean Gu, it's not that I, Chen Youdao, am stingy, it's that the surname Han doesn't eat hard and soft, and puts on an honest and honest posture......"

"I'm talking to you about those little ghosts below, why are you pulling it on Master Han again? Master Han doesn't accept your money, and the soap archers in the yamen don't accept it either? They don't take this opportunity to make money, how can they support their families with that little bit of food and money? ”

"Yes, yes, Dean Gu is right."

"Chu Chenggui's mother-in-law will definitely not cook well, I'm worried that Jing Jun won't be able to eat well in it."

is still so spoiled when it comes to this, Dean Gu scolded secretly, and said coldly: "Brother Chen, it's not just your Jingjun who is closed in the yamen at this time, there are more than a dozen of them besides your Jingjun." Those people eat bran vegetables, and when you see that your family Jingjun has white rice and even meat, what do you think about them, don't forget who they are! ”

"Yes, yes, Dean Gu is right, Dean Chen, if you send food to Jing Jun again, you will harm Jing Jun, and if you send food again, he will definitely be bullied by those scoundrels."

Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people died in the Yamen's room. Chen Youdao didn't dare to joke with his youngest son's life, so he quickly stood up: "Okay, I'll go find Chu Chenggui." ”

"There's no rush for a moment." Dean Gu motioned for him to sit down, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go and see Master Han later, and help you with Master Han's tone first." Brother Chen, it's okay to say that the Chen family in Jiaogang is not coming, but now that the Chen family is here, you don't need to ask you to know that they are planning to ask Master Han to call the shots, and Chen Youchun, who committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, is fair, this matter is not easy to do, you have to be prepared. ”

"Dean Chen, hurry up and raise money." He couldn't help but say.

Without waiting for Chen Youdao to speak, Dean Gu said again: "Then there is the Chen family in Jiaogang, the Chen family's anger is not gone, and even if Master Han wants to raise his noble hand, he will not be able to do it." ”

"I went to kowtow to the Chen family at night to make amends, asking for money to compensate them."

"People are ruined, how can they be so easy to speak." Dean Gu stared at him and said meaningfully, "Brother Chen, now that the matter is over, I think you should quit the dean's errand." ”
