Chapter 214: Draw the sword
Ximen Qing was about to go to the Inspection Department to take office, when he suddenly saw a small servant in the family hurrying over, and kept shouting: "Big official, big official." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Ximenqing asked: "What's going on, don't be in a hurry to say it slowly." ”
This Xiao Si pressed his chest, gasped for a few breaths, and didn't have time to rest, and said anxiously: "The official is not good." ”
"What a fuss."
"The villain originally went to buy some things outside Dongping Mansion today, and when he returned home, he saw someone making noise on the side of the road, and the villain stepped forward to ask a few words, saying that the people from the Inspection Department were arresting the thief, and the thief said that he was the brother of the official."
Ximen Qing was stunned, "My brother? What does it look like? ”
"This villain has not seen clearly, there are many people around, most of them are dressed as officials, when I asked thousands of questions, I was driven away by a few of them, only to look at it from a distance, only to feel familiar, and then heard that a few people were arrested, saying that they came from other places, and they wanted to defect to the Ximen officials."
Ximen Qing thought for a while, and the little guy said again: "If you talk about appearance, it seems to be the man who came to sell crude drugs in the official's house when he was in Yanggu County before. ”
"Selling crude drugs?" Ximenqing's house is a crude medicine shop, and I don't know how many people come and go every day, and suddenly my heart shook suddenly, and said, "You lead the way in front of your head." ”
Juan was clever, thought for a while, and said suspiciously: "Selling crude drugs, master, isn't it Lu Fang?" ”
Xue Yongdao: "I'm afraid it's possible." ”
Jiao Ting asked: "Since Brother Lu Fang said the name of Brother Ximen, how dare they take people." ”
Juan snorted and said: "What else can it be, seeing that the master has made an inspection envoy, some people are unwilling to make a dismount." ”
Ximen Qing was afraid that it was really Lu Fang, and he suffered a loss at the hands of the Inspection Division, so he didn't have time to talk to everyone, so he hurriedly went out, and wanted to go back and ride a horse, but the little guy said that it was not far from the city gate, and the crowd on the road was bustling at this time, and it was not as fast as walking on horseback.
Ximen Qing hurriedly walked, and soon arrived outside the city gate, the little guy knew that it was powerful, and regardless of the hardship, led Ximen Qing to the side of the road, when he saw the crowd, Ximen Qing ran over, rushed to the front, and could already hear the scolding in his ears, and put aside the people in front of him to see, and it was really his brother Lu Fang in the crowd.
A few people in the crowd had seen Ximenqing and said in a low voice: "He is the new inspector, Ximenqing." I was present when he gave the Han family a face that day. ”
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly flashed a way, and at this time, a kind of inspection department official also saw Ximenqing, and they all looked at Zhang Jue to see how he did things.
The strange man laughed, led the servant, walked over, and took a few looks. He saluted slightly towards Ximen Qing and said, "Presumably, the official is the Ximen inspection envoy." ”
Ximen Qing nodded slightly, and also looked at this person's appearance, with a seven-foot long and short figure, fat and strong, beard, and eyes like copper bells.
"It's the official." Ximen Qing responded and asked, "Don't know what to do?" ”
Before Zhang Jue could speak, the dogleg behind him changed his voice: "This is Inspector Zhang of the Inspection Department." ”
Ju An followed and said coldly: "I only know that there is a Ximen inspection envoy, but I don't hear about any inspection. His words are clearly a slap in the face, which means that you are a deputy envoy What is it?
Zhang Jue's face flashed with a hint of viciousness, but Ximen Qing said: "Jue'an, don't be rude, Zhang Inspector has been working hard in Dongping Mansion for more than ten years, and he is deeply loved by the people, and everyone praises him." I don't know if this is Ximenqing's fake compliment or sincere sarcasm, so he sang to Zhang Jue again: "Zhang Inspection, when I first came here, I have heard of the name for a long time, and he is really a good man, mighty and majestic." ”
Zhang Juepi smiled and said: "Ximen patrol praise, I just do things according to the laws of the imperial court." Then he shouted to the people behind him, "What are you doing here, why don't you hurry up and greet the inspector of the West Gate." ”
After he said this, everyone behind him saluted, Ximenqing's face remained unchanged, and he was still smiling, only a few of them were Ju'an and Xue Yong, with angry faces.
Ximenqing asked again: "I don't know why you are here today to arrest my brother." ”
Zhang Jue pointed at Lu Fang and pretended to be surprised: "Is this thief really the brother of the Ximen Patrol?" I thought it was a fake, but it was really offended, don't blame it. He apologized in his mouth, but there was no apology on his face, but he was a little proud, and his subordinates still surrounded Lu Fang.
Ximenqing frowned slightly, and said: "Brother Lu Fang came to Dongping Mansion today for me, I don't know what he did to ask you to treat it like this." ”
Zhang Juedao: "This thief, I saw that he had a fierce face, thinking that he was a thief from other places, when he went up to interrogate?" This guy was rude, not only insulting us and others, but also not cooperating with us, and after saying a few words, he started to hurt people, and several brothers in our inspection department were injured by him. As he spoke, he beckoned to the back, and two officials walked out of the crowd, with blue noses and swollen faces, and dirty bodies.
"Ximen Inspector, you see, although this guy is your brother, but he hurt the people of the Yamen, the crime is not light, you are a person who knows the laws of the court, and we are our top boss, I don't know what crime the Ximen Inspector thinks this guy should be guilty of, and how to deal with it, although he is your brother, but you don't want to chill the hearts of your brothers."
Ximen Qing sneered in his heart, what a Zhang Jue, he actually used such a method to deal with himself, his words were rude, just jokes, Lu Fang was from other places, and he came to defect to himself, and this Zhang Jue and others had no grievances, they were wearing official uniforms, no grievances, how could Lu Fang insult them, and Lu Fang was not a rude person, it must be this fraud, as for beating people, if they didn't do it in front of them and acted excessively, I think Lu Fang would definitely not provoke officials.
Sure enough, as he expected, after hearing this, Lu Fang was furious, and shouted angrily: "How dare you tell right and wrong in front of my brother, and reverse black and white, if it weren't for you to provoke me for no reason and insult my ancestors, how could I fight back, as for beating people, it is even more nonsense, before you have finished your three sentences, you will take me to prison, and take away my salute and horses." How can I bear this? That's it, I didn't make a heavy hand, a few of you have a wound on your face, but when I struggled, I pretended to fall. ”
Lu Fang is really a little angry, this guy just insulted him, and he was still in front of Brother Ximen, spreading rumors and smearing him, how could he bear it? If it weren't for the scruples of Ximenqing's brother's name, for fear of provoking him to cause trouble, when Lu Fang did it just now, he would never keep his hands, but let himself suffer.
Goodbye Zhang Jue's demeanor, embarrassed Brother Simon everywhere, at this time obviously to use his own matter, to embarrass Brother Simon, thinking of Brother Simon's friendship, but Jue's chest is full of evil spirit, difficult to contain.
He shouted 'Dog thief!' 'Cang Langlang draws his knife in his hand!
