Chapter 136: Trouble in the Yamen (Part II)
After all, Zou Xiurong has the experience of studying in the West, and he is not as conservative as the women of Jinguo nowadays, and he is ashamed to talk about being transferred, remembering this person's verbal offense several times, and even using his hands and feet. nodded, "It's him, he is the history here, with him in the way, I won't be able to see your second brother." ”
"Oh, that's good, let's take this breath first!" As soon as the words fell, the classic historian didn't know well, but before he could leave, he saw an official boot coming at him, gradually enlarging in front of his eyes until he covered the entire field of vision.
The jailers in the prison are certainly afraid of a fourth-grade official, but the canons are their direct superiors, and the county officials are not as good as the current management, and their superiors have been beaten, but they can't be indifferent. At that moment, someone shouted, "Someone is going to rob someone, brothers, copy guys!" And he took up his club and rushed forward.
Zou Xiurong didn't expect that Zhao Guanhou would be so impulsive, say a word, and then start beating people. Seeing so many people surrounding him, he shouted, "Fourth, run quickly." ”
"Second sister-in-law, don't be afraid, I want to see who dares to do it!" Zhao Guanhou snorted coldly, and a sleek waist knife was already in his hand. Stepping on the back of the pawn, the spine of the knife gently patted on his head, and his expression was very leisurely, but the more leisurely it was, the more frightening it became.
This is a jailer, and he deals with a lot of criminals who kill people and set fires on weekdays, and he knows that the more such people are, the more he dares to kill them, and if he is really persecuted, he is afraid that he will really cut off the head of the fourth master.
Everyone was on an errand and couldn't fight to the death, and at that time, even the old army lacked the courage to fight hard, let alone these government guards and jailers. was swept over by Zhao Guanhou's blade-like gaze, only to feel a chill in his neck, and couldn't help but retreat.
Even though there are a few shotguns in the prison, but everyone's accuracy is well known, who dares to guarantee that a shot will go out, and it will hit the master with the knife, instead of opening the fourth master? Besides, who will bear the responsibility of beating a fourth-grade military attache with a shotgun.
At this moment, someone in the cell suddenly shouted: "Which yamen is here, so presumptuous, do you still want to rob people?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a civil official fifty miles away walked out unhurriedly. The official uniform on his body is a four-grade uniform color, and he is generally Nirvana blue with Zhao Guanhou. However, the civil and military nobles are cheap, and the four grades of civil officials are not comparable to the four grades of a military general.
As soon as Zou Xiurong saw someone coming, he whispered to Zhao Guanhou: "He is that Song Liangtai." I heard that his official position is also a fourth grade, and he is very powerful in the governor's yamen. Siyuan was arrested by him when he was reasoning with him. ”
When she saw Song Lian, Song Lian also saw her, with a sneer on her face, "Mrs. Meng? I said, what kind of person is so bold that he dares to rob prison in broad daylight. Only rich businessmen like you dare to be so presumptuous and not take the royal law of the court in your eyes. The first few times you went to the governor's yamen to make trouble, I read that you are a woman, and I don't know you in general, but this time, Mrs. Meng, you seem to have gone too far, right? The helper you're looking for is ......"
He was about to say something, but Zhao Guanhou had already abandoned the fourth old man and rushed directly towards this Song Liangtai, blocking back his words. Song Liangtai saw him rushing directly towards him, and he knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly shouted to the left and right: "Stop him!" ”
But as soon as he finished speaking, a revolver was already on his head. Before the jailers could react, they saw the pistol, screamed in fright, and scattered in all directions, not even daring to take the shotgun.
"Song Liangtai, the two of us haven't seen each other for a while, but Master Xiao Tongxiao, the general office of Liangtai under Zhong Shuai, I have eaten at the same table with him and eaten Yipin's wings together. Jinmen runs a power plant, and Lord Xiao went to it twice, and I also received it, so you can know when you go back and ask. When I ate wings with Zhong Shuai, I didn't even have a mouthful of soup for you, and even a small grain table like you, who was not even qualified to serve on the table, dared to shout in front of me? Even if you rely on you, you dare to arrest my second brother? Okay, let's reason in front of Zhong Shuai, if you want to use force, I'll fight with you today! ”
Seeing him speak, he pulled down the hammer of the revolver, obviously about to be launched in the next moment, and Song Lian was also frightened. He dared to move Meng Siyuan, mainly because he knew that although this businessman had a net worth, he had no backing.
Even if you eat his inheritance openly, you will not cause any trouble. Even his lovely Western-style wife can also get close to Xiangze. Seeing that a curtain tailoring was about to turn into a lion building, he hurriedly said: "Don't do it, you have something to say!" ”
Zou Xiurong also hurriedly said in the back: "Fourth, don't come nonsense!" ”
Just when the two were at a stalemate, outside the prison, several fast horses flew up, and one of them shouted "Stop!" on the horse. Stop it all! Then the horses rushed into the courtyard, whips rattling over the heads of the crowd, driving the jailers out of all directions.
The fourth old man had just struggled to get up, but when he saw these people rushing in, all of them were wearing bright blue tops, horse coats and waist knives, it was Goshha beside the governor, and he was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground, not daring to move.
Song Lian also recognized the identities of several people, and hurriedly greeted, "A few good brothers, you are here, hurry up and save your life, I don't know where the bandits came from, they want to rob the prison." ”
The leader of Goshha jumped down from the horse and arched his hand in front of Zhao Guanhou, "Lord Zhao, brother is asking you for a favor, shall we put the guy away?" They are all officials, holding knives and guns, which makes people laugh. If you have anything to say, wouldn't it be better to go to the governor's yamen and talk to the marshal. ”
Zhao Guanhou's hand moved, and several people couldn't even see the movement clearly, the revolver had been stuffed under his clothes, and he beckoned Zou Xiurong again.
"This is my second sister-in-law, my second brother is in prison, she wants to come and see, these people not only don't let me see, but they don't talk to people. If this matter is put on a few people, will it not be recognized? Let my second sister-in-law meet with my second brother, and then we will go to the governor's yamen to talk, otherwise, I am afraid that this matter will not be finished today. ”
The Goshha was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and said, "Call that canonical history over and let him explain things clearly." Lord Zhao's second brother, why was he imprisoned? We're all good friends, how did we get things like this? ”
These Goshha have a three-grade future on their heads, and they are naturally just subordinates in front of Han Rong, but in the county yamen, they are much tougher than the eldest lord. An unpopular classic history is not in their eyes, Song Lian hurriedly pulled Goshha aside and muttered a few words in his ear. The Goshha nodded, "Oh...... Is that so? Can't you help but meet people? This is ...... I don't understand, let the big boss be the referee. ”
He glanced at Zou Xiurong a few more times, "Old Song, you have made a mistake again, and it is really not unjust to say that people are cleaning you up." Anyway, I understand it, and then you provoked this master? The foreign people are good-looking, and now they are in the governor's yamen, as long as they say a word, it will not be difficult to pick your top. I don't mix with this, you can do it yourself, anyway, you have to let people watch the offender first. It's not a capital crime, no prison visits are allowed, is there such a rule in Dajinguo? ”
The famous historian glanced at Song Lian a few times, but Zhao Guanhou had already held the handle of the knife in his hand, and the angry Goshha kicked him on the waist, "What is the ink?" I don't have so much effort to play with you, lead other people's wives to see my masters, if you can't do it, I'll do it. ”
Zou Xiurong followed the four old men into the old prison, and a jailer moved a few chairs out of it and brought tea. Zhao Guanhou sat there, drank all the tea, and looked at a few people who came, "A few, are you with me?" What's the matter, I've entered Baoding, and the handsome is still afraid that I'll get lost? ”
"Misunderstanding...... Misunderstanding. Our brothers saw Brother Zhao drinking tea outside, and then left, I was afraid that something was wrong, so I quietly followed, but I didn't expect you to see it. I didn't say it, they are wrong about this today, and when we get to Dashuai, our brothers should also testify to you. ”
After about half an hour, Zou Xiurong walked out of the cell with tears on his face, grabbed Zhao Guanhou's arm again, but he couldn't cry.
"They...... They have punished your second brother...... And put him in a jail with some felons......"
After only saying these two words, Zhao Guanhou knew that Meng Siyuan's situation was not very optimistic, he first comforted Zou Xiurong a few words, and then looked at the Goshha, "Friend, how can you say this?" ”
Seeing that the situation was not good, the four old men took off their hats and lay on the ground and said, "A few adults, this is not to blame the small ones, there is really no place in the cell, so they can only lock people up." As for the torture, the little one didn't torture him, it must have been done by the rabbits in the cell, I ...... I will definitely rectify it when I turn around, and I will definitely rectify it! ”
"Turn back! You're fucking going back! "That Goshha is also an old man, and he knows that he must do enough at this time, otherwise he is afraid that even he will be hated by Zhao Guanhou, as long as the foreign appearance says a few words, his future will be ruined. The waist knife was sheathed out, and it was being drawn in the face of this famous historian, and in a miserable scream, the person had already rolled out, and his teeth and blood were spitting out far away.
Song Lian also said: "This ...... This simply makes no sense. I've never said that let them be tortured. I arrested people, just to let him know that the government is powerful, who knows, how to make such a fuss. ”
Zhao Guanhou's tone was gloomy: "Let's see my second brother's injuries first, change rooms, and don't say anything else." Now you are telling us to bring people out, and we can't come out. It's a good businessman, he went to prison for no reason, and he was tortured, I want an explanation for this. Song Liangtai, you come with me, let's go to the governor's yamen first, and make it clear! ”
He grabbed Song Lian by the collar, obviously trying to carry him away, and the Goshha hurriedly persuaded him, "Don't ...... This is a provincial city, which is too ugly to see. Save some face for us officials. Don't worry, with us, he can't run. Your second brother's injury, let's find a way to treat it, this aunt, you can say something. It's important to see a doctor first, not the time to make trouble. ”
Although Zou Xiurong feels sorry for her husband, she is a famous lady after all, not a character who talks about fighting and killing, she also said: "Fourth, let's reason first, your second brother's injury ...... But I don't know if it can be cured. ”
"If it can't be cured, no one in this prison will want to live!" Zhao Guanhou shook off such a sentence and helped Zou Xiurong to get into the rickshaw, but pushed the coachman away, turned his head and said to Goshha: "Call the two people in the prison to come and pull the cart, this is what they should do." I'll put this here, my second brother has a good one, don't say that I don't talk about friendship! ”
When the group arrived at the governor's yamen, these Goshha opened the way, so they didn't need to pass the courtesy, and went directly to the signing room to wait. In the room, Mrs. Jenson sat there, and opposite her was a Jurchen girl of fourteen or fifteen years of age, with two hairs combed and the bottom of a flower pot. The appearance is very pleasing, with a wine glass in his hand, a wine jug and a few pickles on the table, and he is actually drinking wine.
Seeing Zhao Guanhou and Zou Xiurong coming in, Mrs. Jensen got up and said hello, and then pointed to the little girl and said, "This is the daughter of His Excellency the Governor, a smart and lovely girl. She understands Capetian and Albiang and we had a great time communicating. ”
"My name is Fuzi, and you are Zhao Guanhou? I met you last time I negotiated with foreigners. What's going on today, why did you bring a woman to see Amma, she's your wife? ”
Fuzi was not afraid of life, on the contrary, he greeted him very generously, and Zhao Guanhou was also busy with a thousand, "I've seen the eldest lady." This is my second sister-in-law, and my second brother was imprisoned in a cell by the people of the governor's yamen for no reason, and he was also tortured. I came to see Dashuai just to ask for an explanation for my second brother and seek justice. ”
"Execution? Someone actually executed Mr. Meng? Mrs. Jensen was familiar with this kind of thing, and immediately showed a mixture of surprise and anger on her face, and turned to the Goshha: "I must explain to you that His Excellency Meng Siyuan is an important partner of my Warby Bank and a good friend of mine. If he is treated unfairly in your country, Wallabi Bank will definitely not sit idly by. ”
Fuzi put down the wine glass at this time, and asked Zou Xiurong to sit down first, "Don't make trouble first, Ama has a guest, and I will see you in a while." Tell me about this, and I'll cut it off first. If there is really someone in this yamen who frames the innocent, I will definitely let Amma give you justice. ”
On the other side, in the government office of the Governor's Yamen Grain Station, Song Lian, who ran back from the cold man, hurriedly said to the rest of the grain stations: "It's bad, something big has happened this time!" Meng Siyuan has a foundation, and he is the brother who has changed the post with that Zhao Guanhou. He just went to the prison to make a fuss, and almost slaughtered people, and now he is in Dashuai's place, and this matter is afraid to be troublesome. ”
The other small grain stations looked at each other and knew that the matter was serious. One said: "Old Song, the 83,000 silver, although it was proposed by a few of us, not all of them were spent by us." There are 20,000 in it, which is a filial piety to the handsome, and 10,000 is a filial piety to the wife, which are all clear accounts. Even Lord Xiao also made us 5,000, not to mention these, the former of the big marshal bought the ordnance, and the money withdrawn also went from that account. We have less than 20,000 points, so it doesn't hurt to think about it. It's just that you always think about his mother-in-law surnamed Meng, so you provoked the basket, right? This is not enough for us to fill the gaps. ”
"What's the use of saying this now? Everyone is making trouble at the door, hurry up and think about it, or I'm finished, don't think about it anymore? ”
Several co-organizers of the grain station blamed each other, pushed each other's committees, and quarreled fiercely. Suddenly, there was a cough outside the door, and a bright blue-topped third-grade official in his forties came in unhurriedly, it was Xiao Tong, the new chief grain station who came with Han Rongtong. He glanced at everyone and snorted, "Several, you have done a great thing!" Let me tell you, this matter is now a big problem, several adults, ask for more blessings! (To be continued.) )
