Chapter 126 Scare Away
An official errand came to the door? Li Dang was startled, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. 35xs He thought of what Qin Bai had done with him, among which there were really a lot of people who violated the king's law, and there were countless bloody murders. In particular, the last time the government asked for a handover, although it was vague in the end, it also offended the government. Could it be that this official is here to arrest the second brother?
Li Dangzheng hesitated, but the subordinates behind him were a little impatient: "The brothers surnamed Qin? Not at all? Bad man, you're not mistaken, right? ”
"Shouldn't it?" Zhang Tao was also completely confused, could it be that the first chief gave a fake address? "Originally, they lived outside the South City, just behind the Yunlai Inn?"
Li Dang hurriedly interrupted his subordinates, but first asked the official about the purpose of the errand: "Poor master!" Do you have something to do with them? ”
"The yamen signed the ticket and let them serve."
"What, service?" Li Dang was taken aback.
And a splash behind Zhang Tao explained: "It's that the eldest master wants to dig the river and build the road, and all the townships and villages in the county are levy and send conscription." ”
When Li dared to hear it, he couldn't cry or laugh, it turned out that he was scared of himself. But then he was nervous, and he suddenly noticed a big problem.
If it was at other times, Li Dang could have agreed to come down first and wait for Qin Bai to come back before dealing with it. Anyway, it's not like I'm going to report tomorrow, and the list has no time to be revised. Flashing Dance can spend money to go to the Yamen Tongmen, or pay money to hire someone to serve as a servant. Even if it is very strict, the yamen refuses to be accommodating, and can also eat and sleep on the construction site every day, and the work to be done by others is nothing more than a matter of spending money. As long as the work assigned to them can be completed, the government has no control over how it is done. Or rather, which overseer would dare to take charge? Is he tired of living?
Therefore, the judgment of the scribe Bao Huiji at that time was correct. Letting the Qin Bai brothers serve as conscripts is basically letting them go on vacation, and for individuals, there is no loss. Therefore, the contradictions will not intensify all at once, and there will always be a process of slow buffering and slowly fermenting.
However, the situation is a little different now. There is no need for this delaying tactic. Otherwise, what should I say? Say "Qin Bai is not here"? So how can it be kept secret?
In a hurry, Li Dang thought of another way to scare them away!
So he immediately showed an evil appearance, leaned out of the counter, and grabbed Zhang Tao's chest clothes: "Bastard!" Who do you let do the coolies? ”
Li Dang's face changed suddenly, and he really scared Zhang Tao and them, and he looked forward to Ai Ai: "I'm ...... I don't? This man ......"
Li Dang's sudden move not only scared Zhang Tao and them half to death, but also surprised the subordinates in the house. They all stood up, and someone asked suspiciously, "Brother Dare, you?" ”
"! The people this bastard is talking about are Second Brother Bai and Gaozi! ”
"......,!"
"Bang la", the crowd was angry, and they all showed the guys in their hands. Bypassing the counter, a group of people surrounded Zhang Tao and them: "To be honest, who is holding back the bad water?" ”
"Dare to let us be coolies in the big cabinet? Is your coffin ready? Would you like to reunite your family? ”
"Do you want us to come over? Thousands of knives working for you? ”
"! Who instructed it? Hurry up and say, Lao Tzu will abolish his tricks today! ”
“……”
Zhang Tao was about to pee, he finally understood, and inexplicably stabbed the hornet's nest: "Good man, there is really no small one." The little one is an errand runner. Dare to ask that Qin Bai ......? ”
"Smack!" I don't know who gave Zhang Tao a slap: "! Can you say the name of our big cabinet casually, you bastard? ”
Covering his face, Zhang Tao was already about to cry: "No, no, it's Qin Ye Qin Ye ......"
Li Dang let go of his hand and motioned to his subordinates to get out of the way: "He is our brave cabinet, you can go to Jingjiazhuang and inquire casually." This poor master, I don't embarrass you. You should have been yin by someone else to do this kind of death-seeking thing. Take a word back and let the person who gave you the name listen. Obediently changed the name, and today's business is over. Also, go back and keep your mouth shut, you didn't come today! Such a person can live a long time. Got it? ”
"Understood! Understand! Zhang Tao nodded again and again, "May I ask who you are?" ”
"Your family dares to master!"
After Li Dang let them go, Zhang Tao still didn't give up, and quietly sent a splash into Jingjiazhuang to inquire. But after the splash came back to tell him, Zhang Tao's face was already pale with fright, and he scolded: "The old immortal of the Zhang family dares to harm Lao Tzu?" ”
"Master Zhang, what should I do next?" Splashy asked.
"What to do? Run away! We must flee into the city before dark, and we are not afraid that they will do us outside? So several people began to run wildly, desperately fleeing towards Laizhou City.
While escaping, Zhang Tao wanted to cry. How could I be so unlucky, I can meet a Hades if I earn some extra money. But when you think of that chief, don't you have the energy to be that chief? I'm really not afraid of my own helper. If it's a pit, it's a pit. can only go to his boss, that is, Xie Dahu, the official of the Zhuang class, and let him support himself......
……
At noon the next day, a restaurant outside the north gate of Pingdu Prefecture City. The entire restaurant has been cleared, and Lin Hao accompanied several guests to sit around a banquet on the second floor.
Lin Hao glanced out the window, and the road into the city was bustling. A few dozen steps away is the North City Gate, where more than a dozen soldiers are busy collecting entrance fees.
Turning around, Lin Hao smiled and asked, "Mr. Li, Qiu Zhutou, do you want to call Xiaoqu?" Looking for a few more girls to drink with? ”
That Mr. Li is the scribe of the Pingdu Prefecture Yamen Torture Room, and Qiu Zhutou is the head of the Zhuang class. The reason why I came to Lin Hao today was because of a big case that happened in a nearby village. They weren't in the mood for anything at all. Scribe Li shook his head and declined politely: "Master Hao, let's get down to business first." There were more than 60 dead and wounded in Sunjia Village, of which 37 died tragically, and then 89 houses were burned down, and the loss of livestock and property was incalculable. Master Hao, can you give me any explanation here? ”
Lin Hao remained silent: "Master Li, you shouldn't ask me about this, right?" ”
The head of the hill on the side said, "Then my brothers found that there were insects and the corpse of another of your subordinates. You won't drive the corpse away, will you? ”
Seeing that Lin Hao still wanted to quibble. Scribe Li raised his hand to stop: "Master Hao, we are here today to talk about a charter, not to embarrass you." You must know that if this case is reported, the lord will not end well, the yamen will not fall well, and you will not be able to do well here. Let's figure out how to get around. Can't you rule that bandits are rampant, and the eldest lord loses his official position? Let's talk about it first, who did this case? ”
