Chapter 53 Fighting for a Wife III
Liu Tingxuan never expected that he would hand in the hole cards with all his heart, but he ended up with such a result, and he was stunned and forgot to keep up. This is why he is a big man after all, and compared with Zhang Jiayin, a Jinshi from a science and armor, he is a little less confident after all.
A eunuch like Gong Huaien, who guards the town, is indeed in a high position and power, like an overseas emperor. But after all, this is Henan, not far from Beijing, Zhang Jiayin has a two-list, and the magistrate with a hard waist can completely meet the eunuchs. No matter how good Gong Huaien is, he can't be the emperor Liu Jin, but Liu Jin is not the same as being solved by the ministers?
If he was removed from the seal and seized of office because of his evil Gong Huaien, it was not a bad thing for Zhang Jiayin, on the contrary, it greatly increased his prestige. In the clear stream of Shilin, his reputation can soar, and he has a good reputation for not being afraid of eunuchs. Gong Huaien can't really do anything to him, kill the seven-rank civil official, he doesn't have that authority yet, and it is suitable to use it as the object of prestige.
Besides, he glanced at the letter, originally wanted to keep it as evidence, but found that the letter was very cleverly written, and there was no trace of Gong Huaien at all, not even a signature or private seal. The only thing that can prove that the letter came from the eunuch's house is the oral statement of the sender, which loses its value and cannot be kept as evidence.
But in this way, it also gives him more room to maneuver, even if Gong Huaien is powerful in the future, he can say How do I know that the letter was written by you, not Liu Tingxuan's forgery.
Therefore, his move not only maintained his dignity of Qingliu, but also left room for him to make peace with Gong Huaien in the future, saying that he advanced and retreated freely, and was at ease, worthy of being a model for civil officials in the country.
Liu Tingxuan's letter was not handed over to Zhang Jiayin at the first time, and it was also an important reason why he was completely defeated in this struggle, since you got Gonggong's letter, you should find the county order to discuss it as soon as possible, and form a consensus between the first and second leaders, so that everyone can have a good caliber and a pace. What does it mean that you have hidden the letter and then taken it out at this time? Don't you still think that you will do this by yourself, sell it to Eunuch Gong, and sell the county order?
He committed several taboos of the second official, so that Zhang Jiayin concluded that he had the intention of usurping his county throne, and he was not polite to him. When he returned to the court, his face became more and more unsightly
"I heard that Liu Hu just injured Yang Baizai with a stick, a public man, he actually dared to beat the imperial court horseman, what kind of system is this? He didn't want to do this official anymore, he would be pulled later, beaten forty, and put in a flail outside the yamen for three days to set an example. ”
Liu Tingxuan had already come out at this time, and after hearing this judgment, he hurriedly said: "County Zun, although Liu Hu is a little negligent, it is also out of kindness. He injured Yang Baizai, it was purely a misunderstanding, he wanted to fight the Tie clan at that time......"
"He's a big man, and he beats a weak woman, does it still make sense? Come on, splash Liu Hu with cold water to wake him up, and after he brought it, he beat me hard, and after the beating, he was pulled outside and flailed, never to be used. ”
The county order is in the government, and he can decide to go with a word, no matter how decent Liu Tingxuan, the second master, is, he can't say anything at this time, so he can only let it go. That Liu Hu was really pustuated a little, he was frightened by a stick and fainted, and he still hasn't woken up, and after waking up with cold water, he saw a few newly acquainted colleagues carrying himself to the lobby, and asked: "A few brothers, what is this going to do, you guys take it lightly, I'm still a patient." ”
When he arrived in the hall and listened to the verdict, he couldn't help shouting, "Wronged, wronged." I gave Jiao Hushu a letter, and I wanted to give the little lady a little color to see, so I hit it harder. He said that as long as I fight hard, the position of the head of the squad will be my ......"
As soon as he said this, Liu Tingxuan shouted, "Shut up!" Left and right, if you don't pull him down and beat him, how can you let him talk nonsense here. ”
From the perspective of the system, all the officials are at the same level, and there is no question of who is bigger than whom. However, in the actual errand envoys, there must be a few brains, otherwise these servants and helpers will not be easy to manage.
The position of the head of the squad is such an earth-made product, which is not found in official documents, and is usually held by the confidants of the county order. Whoever controls the head of the squad will master the county's official service, that is, he will grasp the armed forces directly under the county.
Don't look at the identity of the squad leader, but the appointment of the squad leader must be approved by the county order, which can mean that he has grasped the county's armed forces. Jiao Rong and Liu Tingxuan's private promise to the head of the team is tantamount to openly invading Zhang Jiayin's sphere of influence, and it is no wonder that he is in a good mood.
Zhang Jiayin laughed angrily, "Okay, so that's what happened." Jiao Hushu has a lot of ability, and he can decide on the head of the team, and it seems that I was a little slow in the past with such a talent, and I should reuse it. What are you waiting for, that you will not torture me? ”
Among the several officials in charge, two of them were also in the position of Zhongying, so the bamboo board was extremely hard, and the forty boards were not discounted at all, and Liu Hu screamed again and again, crying for his father and mother.
Just after beating the board, Wang Tietou and others over there had already rushed over and dragged him out, Wang Tietou said as he walked, "Where is the flail for death row prisoners in the yamen?" Isn't it a flail for three days, just use that, and I'll find a few more stones to fall on later, so as to ensure that there is weight. ”
The torture instruments had just been used here, and Zhao Jiuxiong and other righteous people over there escorted Zhong Asi to the county office. Zhang Jiayin couldn't help but secretly admire, Henan is really fierce and martial arts, and this righteous people are several times stronger than the execution ability of the officials.
Zhong Ah Si was originally a prankster, and he often came and went in the yamen, and he was used to rolling in the hall. He also knows that he can't just kill him in the yamen, and he hasn't committed a major crime, what can you do to me? Therefore, in the past, when he came to Yamen, he was also a hippie smile, and he did not have any fear of officials.
But the problem is that there is still Zhao Jiuxiong's ruthless person outside today, compared with the supreme pranky skin of others who have developed to the identity of the village sage, it is really not a little worse, if it falls into the hands of the other party, it is a proper death or life. For fear of letting him out of the yamen, he couldn't help but mourn: "Lord grace, master is gracious, please lock me up for a few more days." ”
Zhang Jiayin snorted coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, the official asks you, what's going on with this marriage book?" And what is the situation of your marriage contract with the Tie family, and you haven't recruited it from the official? If there is half a word that is not true, let you know the power of the official law. ”
Liu Tingxuan said on the side: "Yes, today there is the county master and the official who are in charge for you, you just have to rest assured, no one can harm you, as long as you tell the truth, I will protect you with justice." ”
