Chapter 367: Luo Jian scolded the official
Boss Liu saw that Luo Jian was talking lightly, stared at Luo Jian a few times, and was a little unsure of what Luo Jian and the others were doing. Although he also knew that Hangzhou Mansion was now called Hangzhou City, and the Lord of Futai had also changed his name to the mayor, he still habitually thought that it was Hangzhou Mansion and Lord Futai.
There was no fierce fight in the shop, and a few swingers and a few housekeepers who had been hollowed out by the wine did not need the guards of the Grand Governor to use real skills, and in less than three minutes, the store was lying on the ground, except for a few dusty women, all the men in the group were lying on the ground.
Suozhu found a rope from the store, tied up Young Master Gong, who was lying on the ground and was still shouting, and threw it aside, and said to the other sons: "You go to Haiqing County to inform Gong Ci and ask him to go to Hangzhou tomorrow to find the mayor of Mao Bijiang." ”
Several family members struggled to get up from the ground, stepped forward to help a few sons and brothers to escape.
"You're yelling and gagging again!" The lock pillar yelled at Young Master Gong, who was thrown in the corner, so frightened that Young Master Gong didn't dare to say anything anymore.
"Hurry up and eat, the food is going to be cold." Luo Jian said at the lock post.
Seeing that Luo Jian and the others already knew that Young Master Gong was the young master of the Taiye family in Haiqing County, Boss Liu dared to do this, and looked at Luo Jian and the others with even more doubtful eyes.
"Boss Liu, this matter has nothing to do with you, if there is still someone looking for trouble for you, you will go to Hangzhou to find Mayor Mao." Luo Jian saw Boss Liu's scared look and said to him.
"Ouch, this old man, the little one doesn't dare. I don't know how many guest officers..."
"Don't ask us what we do, don't worry, no one will trouble you." Luo Jian said with a smile at Boss Liu.
There was no drinking, and several people quickly finished eating. Zhang Long carried Young Master Gong back to the inn like a chicken, only to look at Boss Liu who was standing at the door dumbfounded.
"The shopkeeper, this Gong Ci was an official of Nanming in the past, and he was also directly changed from a county official to a county magistrate." Out of the door, Huang Zongxi introduced Luo Jian.
"My son is like this, it seems that this Gong Ci is not a good thing!" The lock pillar said angrily beside him.
Luo Jian woke up on time at six o'clock in the morning, and wanted to lie down for a while. But there was a sound of soft footsteps outside the room, Luo Jian thought for a while, simply got dressed, opened the door and saw that the innkeeper was pacing around the door, with a very anxious look on his face.
"This lord, you are up, Master Gong of Haiqing County has been kneeling downstairs for an hour." The innkeeper bowed to Luo Jian and said with a fist salute.
"Oh? Hehe, I'm not a master. Master Gong? But Gong Cigong, the county magistrate of Haiqing County? Luo Jian asked strangely.
"Exactly, exactly, he arrived before dawn, and he didn't dare to disturb the nobleman's rest, so he knelt in front of the small shop and waited." The innkeeper saw that Luo Jian didn't like the title of the master, so he changed it to a nobleman, which made Luo Jian a little crying and laughing.
After a while, Huang Zongxi and Suozhu also walked out of the room and saw the innkeeper talking to Luo Jian. They all came forward.
"Hehe, I said let them go to Hangzhou today to get people. As a result, they arrived overnight, and are now kneeling downstairs, let's go, let's go down and have a look? Luo Jianchong said with a smile.
A few people walked out of the door of the inn and saw that there were really three or four people kneeling at the door, and the middle one looked to be about fifty years old. Staring anxiously at the door of the inn, there was a sedan chair in the distance, and a woman standing next to the sedan chair was hiding her face and crying.
"The Metropolitan Governor, the dog didn't know that the Metropolitan Governor was coming, and he collided with the Metropolitan Governor. I hope the Metropolitan Governor will forgive your sins! The middle person watched Luo Jian and the others come out, looked carefully, knelt and moved a few steps forward, and said while kowtowing to Luo Jian.
"You are Gong Ci? You stand up for me! When Luo Jian saw this scene, the fire hit straight up, pointed at Gong Ci and roared in a low voice.
Gong Ci trembled and got up from the ground, moved to Luo Jian and stood with his head down.
"As a government official, the head of a county, don't you know the rules? Do you still have the face to kneel here? Do the people of Haiqing County have to kneel down when they see you, the county master? Luo Jian said coldly.
Gong Ci's face was already in cold sweat, and his legs began to tremble.
The woman in the distance saw Luo Jian and the others walking out of the door, and also ran over to this side, and was about to kneel down in front of Luo Jian, but was stopped by Gong Ci who was standing aside.
The woman ran to Luo Jian and made a compilation vigorously, and said in her mouth: "Dadudu, Xiao'er is young and ignorant, and he collided with Dadudu, I hope Dadudu will let Xiao'er go this time." ”
"County Magistrate Gong Cigong, this is your wife, right? One by one, your sons have collided with the Governor, and the Governor will not be able to withstand the collision? I'm afraid that the people of Qingxi Town know what kind of character your young master of the Gong family is, right? But if the two of you discipline more strictly on weekdays, how can you let him be what he is today? Kicking out all the guests in the restaurant after a meal? If you don't go out, you beat and scold? ”
Luo Jian saw that Gong Ci and his wife both said that their son had collided with the metropolitan governor and begged for forgiveness, so he couldn't help it anymore and scolded the two of them.
"If it's a prodigal son of a local tyrant and a bad gentry, it's just that there is one more ruffian hooligan on the street, but you, Gong Ci, as the head of a county, represent the image of the government, do you know how it feels for the people to be angry and dare not speak? Truth be told, your son's last night wasn't a big deal, but do you know why I have to hold on to it? ”
Seeing that there were more and more onlookers, Luo Jian also calmed down and said to Gong Ci.
"The lowly position knows, the lowly position does not dare to ask the metropolitan governor for forgiveness, please the metropolitan governor to punish the sin of the lowly position!" Gong Ci stepped forward and arched his hand and said.
"Oh? You know? Tell me, why? Luo Jian said coldly.
The cold sweat on Gong Ci's forehead became more and more, and his lips trembled for a long time and he couldn't say a word.
Zhang Long had already slipped Young Master Gong out and threw it next to Gong Ci, Young Master Gong obviously already knew what was happening in front of him, curled up on the ground and secretly looked at Luo Jian with his eyes, he wanted to see who he met last night.
"Can't tell? Or do you simply not know? If you don't say it, I say it! The people have been bullied by the ruffians and hooligans, and they can go to the government to file a complaint, asking you lords to administer justice to them, and if they meet a good official, they may be able to get some justice. But the people have been bullied by you, the young masters of the official family. I'm afraid it's only life, right? ”
The people watching below didn't know who was standing on the steps and scolding Gong Ci, and the discussion began below.
"Hey, buddy, who's this? This can be said to our hearts, we have been bullied by these Tai Sui, where can we find someone to reason? ”
"You don't know who's standing down there? That's the county master of our Haiqing County. ”
"Ouch hey. Dare to scold the county magistrate like a grandson, this person is the master of Hangzhou Mansion, right? But we haven't heard of the people of Hangzhou Mansion having this courage? ”
"Shhhh
"Huh? I just heard last night that the Metropolitan Governor had exterminated all the bandits in Moganshan yesterday, but I didn't expect his old man to live in our town! ”
"The Metropolitan Governor is a private visit to Weifu, right? Why did the young master of the county master's family bump into it? ”
"Alas, I'm usually used to being rampant and domineering, where can I take it, and besides, the governor doesn't even have a guard of honor when he goes out. He didn't recognize it. ”
"County Magistrate Gong, give you half an hour, you think about it, report the situation in Haiqing County to me, make it clear, you write a review to Hangzhou City, and let Hangzhou send someone to investigate your son's affairs, and deal with it as it should be; I can't tell. You can directly submit your resignation report to Nanjing! Mr. Huang, let's eat. Luo Jian didn't want to say more. After finishing speaking, he beckoned Huang Zongxi into the inn.
Seeing that Luo Jian and the others had entered the house, Mrs. Gong stepped forward and helped Young Master Gong up from the ground and patted the dust on his body, "Son, they didn't beat you, did they?" Son, why are you so moldy? Why did you meet it? ”
Young Master Gong was not a fool, he gently pushed Mrs. Gong away, walked to Gong Ci in a few steps and knelt down.
"Dad, my son is wrong, you save your son. If the Hangzhou government sends someone to investigate, the son will be finished! ”
Gong Ci was still thinking about what Luo Jian told him just now, the governor meant to let him report on the situation in Haiqing County, where would he be able to make it clear at this time, ignoring Young Master Gong's words, Gong Ci began to look back for his master, but he rushed to Qingxi Town overnight last night, and only brought a few poor people, so he didn't care about calling his master to come together, Gong Ci was so anxious that he turned around in a circle.
"Master, you should quickly find a way to save your son, right? We're just this one son! Mrs. Gong didn't understand what Luo Jian meant just now, and was still urging Gong Ci to find a way to save her son.
"Save my son? Master, I'm hard to protect myself now! Gong Ci shook his head with a sad face.
Luo Jian calmly faced and Huang Zongxi and a few people went back to the inn to wash up briefly, walked downstairs to go out for breakfast, and saw that Gong Ci's family and a few messengers were still waiting at the door of the inn, Luo Jian ignored them, and walked to a breakfast shop next to the inn to ask for a pot of steamed buns and porridge, and several people ate it.
"Shopkeeper, how does he know that you are the Grand Duke?" Suozhu finished eating in three bites and two bites, and finally asked what he had been holding back all morning.
"Suozhu, let me tell you, there are some officials here, he just doesn't think about things all day long, he specializes in thinking about people. Didn't we go to Haiqing County yesterday? They didn't receive anyone, they must have known that we had passed directly through Haiqing County, calculating the distance, and then thinking about it in Haiqing County, knowing that it was the county grandfather and son, and still daring to do this, then who else could it be? I just didn't expect him to come overnight. Luo Jian shook his head and said.
"I see, I said we didn't reveal our identities." The lock post scratched his head and said.
After eating, when we arrived at the door of the inn, Gong Ci was still standing there, and Luo Jian said as he walked, "You come with me." ”
"What are the advantages of Haiqing County's population, the number of acres of land, this year's grain output, how many people there are, how many factories there are in the county, and the taxes handed over this year? What are the disadvantages? Let's talk about all of this, right? In the guest room of the inn, Luo Jian asked Gong Ci lightly.
"The Governor of the Great Metropolis, I have always remembered my humble duties... It's not good, but the lowly job is extremely rigorous and meticulous on weekdays, please make most of the governors clear... Perceive! Gong Ci's face was covered with beads of sweat and he stammered.
"I don't think I have a bad memory, it's that I forgot to take my master with me in a hurry, right?" Luo Jian said coldly.
"This..."Gong Ci was speechless at all.
"County Magistrate Gong, you know what to do, right? You won't forget this again, will you? Mr. Taichong, we've also eaten, let's go. Luo Jian said a word to Gong Ci, turned his head and said to Huang Zongxi. (To be continued.) )
