270 Dusk Drum Morning Bell

Wang Bodang and Xia Ziteng quickly trotted back to Su You's side, Su You looked at them with some joy on their faces, and asked anxiously, "What news do you think you have?" Say it. ”

Wang Bodang nodded, and then said, "Just now, five or six hundred people did rush to the dock and smashed the transfer station belonging to the Zhangjia Boat Company on the dock. ”

Xia Ziteng immediately added, "There are not many people left at the dock by the boat company, and they ran into the city as soon as they saw the menacing people, and they don't know if there were casualties." ”

"Into town." Su You said these two words categorically, and then walked towards the city of Qixian County, half a mile away.

At this time, the sun had not yet set, and the gate of Qi County was not closed, and when Su You and the others arrived at the gate of the city, when they looked into the city from the hole in the city gate, they didn't feel that there had been a chase of hundreds of people inside.

"Please show me first." When the soldiers guarding the gate saw Su You and the others looking into the city in a ghostly manner, they naturally stretched out their hands to stop them, looking like they were facing a great enemy.

Su You naturally knew their office procedures, and after showing the appearance, he checked the road guide and paid the city gate tax.

"This official is the new Imperial Doctor and Southeast Economic Envoy, this is my insider, this is my subordinate." Su You was worried at this time, and he didn't care about revealing his identity, even if he showed his life thorn and waist card to the two soldiers who came up to collect taxes.

Where have the two of them ever seen such a big high-ranking official? Even if you are a little scared, you don't know whether it is better to stand or kneel.

Su You grabbed them and asked in a deep voice, "I heard that hundreds of people rushed into the city just now, where did they go?" What's going on now? ”

"That was half an hour ago, and the little one hadn't changed shifts yet," replied one of the guards, trembling, but the first thing to do was to clear up his own relationship.

"Well, I'm not holding you responsible, I'm asking where they went? Do you know? Su You immediately interrupted his self-defense, if they didn't know about it, Su You didn't want to waste more time.

"Yes, yes. I heard that it was because the people of the Zhang family boat line were killed, and the bitter master found someone to take revenge. The people of the Zhang family boat line ran into the county government after getting the news, and those people "The guard nodded busily as he spoke just now, and then chattered endlessly.

"Come on, what are you supposed to do?" After Su You learned that those people had gone to the county office, he patted the guard on the shoulder and turned to leave.

The county government is easy to find. It is generally in the north of the city, and the place where the house is built highest and covers the largest area is the place.

When Su You turned around and went to the county office, Lu Zhongsu also arrived at the city gate with more than a hundred people.

Before the two guards could understand what the situation was, Lu Zhongsu had already entered the city gate, and then asked him, "Has Su Yushi entered the city?" We are his retinue. ”

"He went to the yamen." When the guard heard that Lu Zhongsu and the others were Su You's people, his tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and then said.

"Thank you." Lu Zhongsu nodded, waved his big hand, and led a hundred or so people to quickly go to the yamen.

The two guards were like a dream, and after feeling that something was wrong with this, Lu Zhongsu had already gone far away.

When Su You arrived at the county office, he found that the gate of the county government was tightly closed, and at a glance he knew that this place had suffered from war.

"What should I do, sir?" Wang Bodang obviously didn't expect that it would be such a situation, the sun hasn't gotten off work yet!

"Let's beat the drums." Su You said helplessly.

"I'll come." Xia Ziwei obviously never thought that she would one day sound the drum of grievances, how could she easily miss such a good life experience? So after saying that, when she volunteered to finish these two words, she picked up the drumstick without waiting for Su You to answer.

In an instant, the earth-shattering sound of "dong dong" sounded, and this sound spread rapidly, and it was also transmitted to the second hall of the yamen very fairly.

The county commander Mu Shi has not yet recovered from the panic of those Diao people storming the yamen just now, and when he heard the sound of the drums, he almost spilled the tea in his hand, so he said angrily, "Come on, go and see which one is not long-eyed at this time." ”

The two officials answered the "whoosh" and opened the door of the county government with depressed faces.

When the two officials saw Xia Ziwei who was still playing the drum, their eyes couldn't help but light up, although Xia Ziwei was wearing a gauze at this time, but looking at her sideways, you could feel that she was a young and beautiful woman.

In normal times, such a woman is obviously not something they can talk to as a servant, but now it is obviously an opportunity.

So one of them immediately picked up the official tone and asked, "Who beats the drum and voices grievances?" Bring the paper. ”

As she spoke, the two officials walked towards Xia Ziwei in unison, they obviously wanted to snatch the drumstick in her hand, but in fact they wanted to take the opportunity to eat tofu, and one of them and a salty pig hand obviously attacked Xia Ziwei's chest.

Wang Bodang was by Xia Ziwei's side, how could he let go of this opportunity to protect the flowers? When even stretched out his hand, grabbed the collar of one with one hand, and immediately threw the two of them to the ground.

After the two fell to the ground, they found that Xia Ziwei had several other people around him, and the most fierce was Wang Bodang, who had put them on the ground just now, and the damnful thing was that he was still carrying a bow and arrow.

Although the two officials are not good at skill, they still have vision, and they know that they can't take advantage of their fists and feet, so they play tricks and say, "What do you want to do?" Believe it or not, I sued you for assaulting the officials? ”

"Yo, you're quite legally conscious." Su You smiled and grabbed one of them by the collar and pulled him up, handed over a name thorn and said, "Tell you the county order, let him get out of here to meet us." ”

"You are?" After all, the situation is not as strong as the people, and the official who was pulled up by Su You asked in a low voice.

"This official is the third-grade imperial historian and the southeast economic envoy of the current dynasty, why don't you go soon?" Su You slapped him in the face, and then made the little prince Su You, who never slapped his face, suddenly discover a new pursuit in life.

This slap was for them who wanted to eat Xia Ziwei's tofu just now, and because he was bullied by unscrupulous officials when he first came to Dasui. - Su You was almost arrested by them that night, but fortunately, they only sent him equipment.

The two officials stumbled into the yamen, and then Mu Xianling stumbled out.

Mu Shi fell to the ground and saluted Su in a decent manner, "Xiaguan Mu Shi greeted the late, look at Su Yu Shi Haihan." ”

Mu was nearly fifty years old, and his hair was already gray, because he already had some sequelae at this time, or maybe because he was wearing too little, he still sniffed from time to time, anyway, he looked like he was about to die.

When Su You watched him salute him, he couldn't help but be a little reluctant, and then remembered the words he just said to let him get out to greet him, and he couldn't help blushing a little, so he hurriedly helped him and said in a deep voice, "This official is also a private visit, and those who don't know are not guilty." ”

Hearing about Su You's private visit, Mu Shi was silent on the surface, but there was a drum in his heart, which official is not afraid of being investigated?

Although people in this era still pay attention to "governing the country and leveling the world" to win "fame before and after", more people have discovered the benefits of power, so they have turned their reputation into benefits, and the people who are greedy for ink have a tendency to rise.

"Su Yushi is invited in, but the yamen is too small, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please" Mu Shi solemnly saluted Su Yu again, and then waved his hand to invite Su You in, but he glanced at it, but saw a hundred and ten people crowded at the corner of the street and hurried here.

Mu Shi rubbed his old eyes, looked at Lu Zhongsu and the others who were hurrying in disbelief, but thought sadly in his heart, "Have these thugs gone and returned?" ”

"How?" Su You saw him waving his hand to invite him in, but he was stunned, so he subconsciously turned his head, but met Lu Zhongsu's eyes.

"Su Yushi is about to enter the house, and the lower officials are here to resist for a while." Mu Shi has some consciousness of being a subordinate, and he also knows "let the leader go first" at the critical moment.

He turned sideways to let Su You go, and then opened his hands to stop Lu Zhongsu and the others, and hurriedly let the two accompanying officials hold the door.

Lu Zhongsu did not attack the yamen as Mu Shi imagined, but stood with his fists clenched, but looked at Su You with his eyes very sincerely.

Su You looked at Mu Xianling, who was like a frightened bird, although he didn't know what happened before he came here, but he was more or less clear.

"Mu County, don't panic, he's my person." After Su You said this, he walked to Lu Zhongsu's side.

Mu Shi listened to Su You's words, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't stop Su You, he just kept patting his chest, looking like he was almost scared to death by you, as funny as he could be, but how could Su You care about this old guy at the moment?

"Something?" Su You asked in a low voice.

Lu Zhongsu nodded, and then said to Su You, "I heard that they killed more than 30 people just now, and then they broke into pieces and went to the south gate.

"More than thirty dead?" Su You was stunned at the time, and in this era, I don't know if there is a statement that he will be demoted and transferred if the number of accident deaths exceeds 35

"If you really can't do it, you won't dare to embarrass Mr." Lu Zhongsu saw Su You's hesitation, and he also knew that this important matter of human life could not be ended by Su You's words.

"Don't go yet." Su You grabbed Lu Zhongsu, who was about to leave, and asked in a low voice, "Is this what you mean, or is someone else asking you to find me?" ”

Lu Zhongsu said as a matter of course, "Naturally, I mean, how can I tell others about your whereabouts?" ”

Su You nodded and said, "Since they have all entered the city, let's rest here for a while, I don't want you to have anything to do with them." ”

Lu Zhongsu nodded, and agreed to Su You, and then said, "Let's go to the inn to sharpen, I hope to hear your good news as soon as possible." ”

Su You waved his hand and let them go.

Seeing Lu Zhongsu retreat like a tide with a group of subordinates, Mu Xianling asked with some puzzlement, "Who are they?" ”

Su You replied as a matter of course, "Didn't the county order just now say that the yamen was too small?" I'll let them go to the inn, and I'll ask you about this afternoon, and I'll go back to the inn later." ”

Mu County Commander guided Su You into the inner hall of the county government, and after the two of them sat down, Wang Bodang and others from Yanbei stood behind Su You.

Only then did Mu Xianling tearfully talk about what happened in the afternoon
