Volume 1 Chapter 65 Meritorious Service and Reward (2)
Li Yong and the others felt bad when they were scolded by Xie Chengzhou just now, yesterday in the county office, this county Cheng Ke said good things for Liu Ximing and others, and when he heard Zhou Liangcai say that Zhang Yuqing's family was all killed, he chuckled in his heart.
Now that he heard Zhou Liangcai say that Liu Ximing was like a young talent who is rare in a hundred years, Li Yong was even more depressed in his heart, and peeked at the expressions of Xie Chengzhou and the others, and suddenly felt that his hope of revenge was a little lower.
Xie Chengzhou was in a trance for a while before he came back to his senses, what did he hear just now?
Liu Ximing killed more than a dozen thieves with only a dozen teenagers, not to mention, knowing that there were hundreds of thieves in the township, he dared to return to save the teacher, and even scared hundreds of thieves back with just this little manpower, and killed dozens of people, is this a teenager doing it?
He looked at Liu Ximing incredulously and asked, "Is what your master said true?" ”
Liu Ximing immediately bowed and saluted: "Don't dare to deceive the county, what Mr. said is true, except for the township, the rest of the thieves' corpses are still in Zhangjiawan Village, and there is another prisoner, but this matter is not my work alone, if there is no classmate Xu Wei, Zhang Yuanlong and the rest of the teenagers, the later students will not dare to do this act." ”
"Hahaha, the last time I saw you, I only felt that you were brilliant, but I didn't know that you were a talent who could write and martial arts, I was in Shunqing, and I haven't seen such a person for a long time."
Xie Chengzhou got his confirmation, and his heart was even more shocked, originally the county was robbed by thieves, and the officials in the county had to receive some punishment, but now Liu Xi's life has sprung up, and it is easy to report to the governor's yamen and the political envoy to the yamen, and he immediately praised excitedly.
"Come on, bring some people and horses, and quickly go to Zhangjiawan Village to bring the corpses and prisoners, and the official will personally ask for credit for everyone."
Liu Ximing and everyone heard Xie Chengzhou say this, and suddenly became excited, Liu Ximing hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I really don't dare to call it both civil and military, if it weren't for Xie Xiancheng leading the army to come this time, I am afraid that we will be harmed by the thieves, and the small merit is also thanks to the authority of Xie County's commander." ”
Zhou Liangcai glanced at Liu Ximing with some surprise, this disciple is smarter than he imagined, seeing that Xie Chengzhou also showed a satisfied look, he was even more happy in his heart, as the saying goes, "The teacher has something, and the disciple obeys it", the smarter the student, the more the teacher will benefit.
Liu Ximing saw that everyone looked happy, he glanced at Li Yong, and asked Xie Chengzhou when he saw the opportunity: "It's just that Li Bantou said about beating the official......
Xie Chengzhou heard the song and knew what it meant, and immediately turned his head and asked Li Yong: "Li Bantou, what did you just say?" It seems to mean that Liu Ximing and others beat you and others? ”
Li Yong suddenly sat on the wax, fuck you, you all hooked up together, what else can Lao Tzu say.
In addition, the Zhang family is dead again, and there is no backer, how dare he have a hard top with Liu Ximing, a guy who is about to become a man of the hour, so he had to hold back a stinky face and laugh forcibly: "Er Yin heard the mistake, the little ones all accidentally fell by themselves, and only broke some clothes." ”
Xie Chengzhou continued to ask, "Oh, is that really the case? It's a bit too careless, but what did you say to the county yesterday? ”
"Little nonsense, I will go to the county to ask for guilt", Li Yong was about to cry, this is too bad.
Xie Chengzhou showed a look that counted as your acquaintance, and saw that the people in Zhengyuan Township looked miserable, so he hurriedly asked the accompanying doctor and others to come forward to treat their injuries, and he also stepped forward to offer condolences one by one.
When Xie Chengzhou sent people to Zhangjiawan Village to bring back more than a dozen corpses and the captive, everyone was in a stir again, and they all stepped forward to see the excitement.
Li Yong and the others saw that the dozen or so corpses were all poked into a blur of flesh and blood, and one of them even had his head cut off, and his heart was even colder.
Most of these corpses in the countryside were smoky and burned before, and some of them couldn't see their wounds, although Li Yong and others didn't do some black work before, but they were generally strangled in prison or directly sunk into the river, which was like this with real knives and guns, and I couldn't help but be a little glad that Liu Ximing and others didn't kill yesterday.
Xie Chengzhou saw that the corpse was brought, and several other townships did not plan to inspect, so he sent a few scribes to inspect instead of him, and he directly took Liu Ximing and others back to Fucheng to report their merits.
The group rushed back to the city without stopping, and when they entered the city, a group of soldiers dragged several carts of corpses to the city, which looked spectacular.
Xie Chengzhou sent two people to the county government and the government office early to report, and asked these two people to shout along the street, and on the way he discussed with Liu Ximing that he wanted to make this matter as big as possible, after all, there was still his own leadership in it.
"Good news, Xie County Cheng and Zhengyuan Township Liu Ximing and others killed dozens of thieves and repelled countless people."
The people who came and went in the city were all alarmed, and they all gathered on the road to watch.
"This Xie County Cheng is really powerful, but who is this Liu Ximing?"
"Yo, why are these all hairy boys?"
……
Liu Ximing and the others followed the team and heard the crowd discussing themselves, and they raised their heads one by one proudly.
When the team was about to arrive at the gate of the county office, a man who looked like a small official ran over from afar and shouted:
"Xie Xiancheng, the government has an order, please move to the government to Xugong."
Xie Chengzhou's face suddenly turned a little bad, and Liu Ximing saw that his expression was different, so he leaned up and asked, "Duke Ming, why did you ask me to wait to go to the palace to report my work?" ”
"Hmph, some people are red-eyed and want to grab some credit. It doesn't matter, this is a competition between the government and the county, but it has nothing to do with us, and will act with me for a while. Xie Chengzhou replied.
Of course, Liu Ximing agreed, and the entire Shunqing Mansion knew Xie Chengzhou himself, seeing that he had some kindness to him, who else could he expect if he didn't keep pace with him?
Everyone turned around and walked towards the prefect's yamen, and when they entered the main hall, Liu Ximing saw more than a dozen officials wearing green robes and green robes sitting in the hall, only one of them was wearing a four-grade Yunyan scarlet robe, with a thin face, it should be the prefect Zhang Licheng.
Xie Chengzhou led people into the hall, stepped forward and bowed and saluted: "Your Excellency, the lower officials were ordered to go to the countryside to protect the people and expel the thieves, and now they are back in the city to restore their lives." ”
Liu Ximing ordered a few white-bodied people to kneel down and salute, the feudal society of the dog's day, Liu Ximing scolded wildly in his heart, and his mother's group of cute fans also said that the big Meng Dynasty didn't need to kneel.
Zhang Licheng stood up suddenly, bypassed the public case, walked quickly in front of Xie Chengzhou, and said with both hands: "Hahaha, no courtesy, no courtesy, Xie County is very capable, I heard that you led your troops to fight with the thieves several times on this trip, beheaded dozens of levels, and expelled hundreds of thieves, which is really a Confucian general in this mansion." ”
Xie Chengzhou and Zhou Liangcai heard it, but their faces changed, before Xie Chengzhou had sent someone back to report the news, although the details were too late to say, but it was definitely said that it was Liu Ximing and others who fought the main battle, and now Zhang Licheng came up and deducted the credit on Xie Chengzhou and others, this is to take all the credit from the government and the county government.
Zhou Liangcai couldn't help but feel a little chilled, he usually only knew that these officials were deceitful and intrigued, but he didn't expect to use it on himself and others so soon, but at this time, he couldn't speak first, so he had to see what Xie Chengzhou said.
Fortunately, Xie Chengzhou didn't know whether he was ashamed to break his promise or what, he immediately corrected Zhang Licheng and said: "Fuzun misunderstood, this battle is not the work of the official alone. Last night, hundreds of thieves invaded Zhengyuan Township and the surrounding villages, and Liu Xi, a young man from Zhangjiawan Village, led 11 young people in his family to kill the enemies one by one with the advantage of being familiar with the terrain. ”
The officials in the hall exclaimed.
Later, seeing the fire in the township, Liu Xi ordered to save his division, not afraid of danger, galloping in the starry night, placing torches on the car, pretending to be an official army attacking, and holding firecrackers and other things in the township to ambush, and finally scared the thief army away and saved his division. When the lower official led the troops, he killed more than a dozen Yu Kou, and he did not dare to live alone in this feat, so he specially reported to the Fuzun that he knew. Zhou Liangcai, a member of the county middle school in his division, can be a witness. ”
Xie Chengzhou was afraid that Zhang Licheng would not even have the face to lose, so he specially pointed out Zhou Liangcai's identity as a Xiucai, intending to warn Zhang Licheng and other officials that Xiucai was involved in this matter, and if he really wanted to take the credit alone, he was afraid of being ridiculed by Shilin.
Zhou Liangcai's eyes lit up when he heard this, Xie Xiancheng is a particular person, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Zhou Liangcai, a student member of the county, visited the government and all the officials, and the students testified, what Xie Xiancheng said was true, Liu Xi's life was light and righteous, and he killed dozens of thieves with a weak crown, and he used clever tricks to retreat from the thieves, he is really a young hero, and I also ask you to praise the righteous deeds and deify the villagers." ”
Liu Ximing saw Xie Chengzhou and Zhou Liangcai scrambling to take the credit on himself, and suddenly realized what Zhang Licheng meant just now, and scolded in his heart, fuck your mother's gang of corrupt officials, Lao Tzu thought that you were polite and polite at the beginning, but I didn't know that I wanted to take all the credit from the government, and seeing that the faces of all the officials in the hall were still a little tangled, I knew that I had to do something.
Thinking that these officials are not monolithic, especially that there is a certain conflict of interest between the prefect yamen and the prefect and the county yamen, Liu Xi's inspiration is flashing, and now the prefectural and county levels want to snatch credit from themselves, and the best way to get out is to sow discord, as long as the prefect and the county yamen have a conflict of interest, then they naturally can't take care of themselves.
