Chapter 247
It turned out that a soldier had misheard the command in a panic and pulled the trigger of the gun in a panic. He also knew that he had done something wrong, and his little face suddenly turned pale.
But the common people don't care who shoots first, anyway, there are soldiers who fire at the defenseless victims, so there is nothing to say. So everyone was excited, and the dock became a mess.
The team officer is also a little nervous, if the people really rebel, I'm afraid that the first one to lose their heads is themselves! By this time, it was no longer possible to get the sergeants not to shoot. He gritted his teeth and yelled: "Don't move!" There is no mercy for those who trespass! β
This roar was immediately drowned in the vast ocean of the people. Seeing that the sergeants brought in were a little uneasy, the team officer decided to let go, snatched the fire gun of the sergeant next to him, and fired a shot into the air.
That's what keeps everyone in check.
"Whether this person is guilty or not, we don't count! Then I learned that the master of the house has the final say! But now he has to go back with us for an investigation! Whoever dares to stop it is a rebellion! In a hurry, the officer's voice was particularly loud.
The people were silent again. The people do not fight with the officials, this is an ancient precept for many years.
"If you're not guilty, why do you want to take people away?" Qin Mi stood up and said unhurriedly to the team officer.
"You...... You Diaomin, it seems that you are determined to rebel? Come! The officer's eyes bulged out, this person is too bold!
"Who dares?!" Qin Mi glared angrily at the sergeants who were pressing up, and slowly took out the official seal from his armsβthe official seal of Chun'an Zhi County. The sergeants were dumbfounded, and one of them took it stupidly and handed it to the officer.
The team officer was also stunned when he saw it. What is it now, even the county officials have taken the lead in rebellion? He took the official seal suspiciously, and then looked at Qin Mi carefully, and after confirming that the person in front of him was indeed the county magistrate of Chun'an, he became bold again: Isn't it just a small magistrate, this is Hangzhou! It's not the place for you to go wild!
He cleared his throat and said, "If you have anything to say, go to the government office and say it to the prefect!" Now you are stirring up trouble among the people, what do you mean?! β
Qin Mi still said unhurriedly: "In broad daylight, you directly arrest people without enough evidence, this is a deliberate attempt to undermine the stability of Hangzhou; When you arrived at the wharf, you didn't directly say the crime, is it possible that the yamen in Hangzhou can arrest the people at will on trumped-up charges? Chun'an suffered a catastrophe, and it is understandable that the people spontaneously went to the grain market to buy grain, but you want to say that they are anti-people, are they starving to death to be good citizens?! β
The team officer who said these words was sweating like rain, but he couldn't say a word.
"Since this person is a victim of the disaster in my Chun'an, it is naturally handed over to me, the county of Chun'an, to deal with it, and it is also a dereliction of duty on my part of the county to deal with the local disaster victims, not to mention that the county should deal with the local disaster victims. Do you have any comments? Qin Mi spoke again, now all the sergeants are not confident, you look at me, I look at you, and looked up at the team officer.
The team officer is difficult to ride a tiger at this time. But this order is under the Yamen of the Division, if you don't arrest the person back, he can't pay the difference, look at the people around him, and then look at Qin Mi with a smile on his face, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and pulled out his waist knife: "No matter who you are, the officers of this team only listen to the Yamen!" If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when you get to the Yamen! Take people away! β
"It turns out that the soldiers of my prefect's yamen are so courageous, it seems that you are really condescending in my small temple!" A cold voice came from behind the crowd, and everyone turned their heads to see that it was a delicate and elegant middle-aged man, not very old, but his every move looked graceful and luxurious.
The ones who came were Yu Xinwu and Sun Jin.
Out of the gate of the weaving bureau, the two of them discussed going to the grain market to have a look, and by the way, asked how much the current grain price was. But as soon as he arrived at the Caoyun Wharf, he saw a commotion, so he hurriedly stepped forward to check, and just happened to see the team officer boldly draw out his waist knife, and his face immediately turned green. Before he officially took office, the people below panicked to make trouble for themselves, and then looked at Sun Jin on the side with an expressionless face, Yu Xinwu immediately felt that his face was lost by these ruffians.
"You...... Who are you? Looking at the scholar approaching, the team officer only felt that his heart was sinking continuously. He just wanted to carry out the orders of the Yamen, but how could everyone from the common people to the officials treat him like this?
"This mansion is the new prefect of Hangzhou......" Before Yu Xinwu finished speaking, the team officer knelt down with a plop: "My lord! The subordinates just followed the instructions of the Yamen, saying that they must take the Diao people who bought and sold grain on the dock without authorization today, who would have thought that such a thing would happen? Adults have to be the masters of their subordinates, wow......" After that, he knelt on the ground and only kowtowed.
Yu Xinwu shook his head lightly and said: "These people are all victims of the disaster in Chun'an, and it is understandable to buy some food to survive, since they want to buy it, how can we not save it?" Let's let it go first, all the blame will be borne by this government! β
The team officer had no choice, what he was waiting for was this, as soon as he heard Yu Xinwu say this, he hurriedly waved his hand to let all the victims who had been tied up be released: this order was issued by his new prefect, of course he had to obey the orders of his superiors, and in the end he would be unlucky, and he would have to be unlucky with him.
Sun Jin still looked at the scene in front of him expressionlessly, and made up his mind that he must take down this Yu Xinwu in a short time, otherwise it would be really impossible to change rice to mulberry.
"This scholar is really bold!" Listening to the report of the subordinates, He Jinxian slapped the table hard. He never thought that Yu Xinwu would openly oppose him, a small prefect, who openly resisted the order of the envoy and governor. This made him feel extremely angry, and even more humiliated, in the whole Zhejiang, there has never been such a thing! In the past, it was just a Qian Ning, but now there is one more Yu Xinwu and one Qin Mi!
It occurred to him that he had neglected someone.
"Who's coming to me? I have already said that no one will come, and they will say that I am sick. "* Lying lazily on the recliner, eating the fruit handed over by Ning Niang, you are very good.
"Godfather...... It's not that the sons don't stop him, but they can't stop him at all, Wow, according to the inspector Lord He, desperately rushed in, and the sons wasted a lot of strength to stop him outside the door...... "A fat little eunuch knelt on the ground trembling all over, sweating profusely.
"Then I have a disease that spreads everywhere, and it is inconvenient to see customers!" *'s eyes suddenly opened, staring at the fat eunuch kneeling below.
"This ...... Yes, my son got it! The fat eunuch scrambled to his feet, turned and stumbled towards the door.
But before he could run outside the door, a burly figure crashed in: "Father-in-law Yang, it's really burning eyebrows now!" If you don't show up again, the day will really fall! He Jinxian strode in, followed by several pale little eunuchs.
"Lord Ho, I am indeed sick. When I came back from Jingshi, I suffered from the wind and cold along the way, and I haven't gotten better yet! If you have anything to do, just say it......"* deliberately leaned down on the recliner and made a weak appearance.
"Father-in-law Yang, the matter has already been released...... He Jinxian sat down in the chair unceremoniously and recounted what happened today. In fact, he already knew that although he didn't go out, he knew the situation in Hangzhou clearly through his godsons. When he was still in Beijing, the ancestor told him that he should not interfere in the affairs of Zhejiang, this is not something that he can supervise too much of a weaving bureau, not only should he not interfere again, but also find a way to choose himself cleanly. Zhejiang is a muddy water, if you can, you can't go, and the magistrate's affairs are still to let them fight by themselves.
"Lord He, what do you want to do now?" * asked nonchalantly.
He Jinxian's face turned red all of a sudden: "I can't let that Yu Xinwu investigate anymore!" If you can let him go back to Beijing, you can find a way to get him away! Otherwise, there will be no peace in Zhejiang! β
Ning Niang's eyebrows jumped suddenly.
"Then have you thought about it, Yu Xinwu is Lord Chen's person, Lord Chen doesn't speak, how can he go?" * Still unhurried.
"If it really doesn't work, then find a good reason to kill him!" He Jinxian made a gesture to wipe his neck. Let such a person stay in Hangzhou, there is another Qin Mi in Chun'an County below, plus the toothless tiger Qian Ning next to him...... He really didn't dare to think about it.
*'s eyes suddenly flashed with a fine light: "Lord He, don't worry, the hurricane is the only one who survives." Since they must do it, let them do it. Yu Xinwu is just a scholar, admitting death, this is his strength, but also his weakness. How to get Ma Yuan down, just get him down. That Qin Mi is not worth mentioning, how can his arms be twisted over his thighs? He's just a magistrate, and he's not of much use. The key is Channing! Don't let him mess with it! β
"Channing is no longer worried!" He Jinxian waved his sleeves violently and sneered, "Lord Chen has already turned his face with him, but he can't find his handle." He is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect himself, and he still wants to protect Yu Xinwu? Don't even think about it! β
"You listen to me......" * felt a headache, "Then Yu Xinwu doesn't like poetry and rhythm, and he will definitely have some emotion in the face of the current situation in Zhejiang." Find a way to get him to say or make some poems that express his counter-meaning, and then ......"
He Jinxian's eyes suddenly lit up, but Ning Niang's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
