Chapter 62 Township Aspirations
The next day, as we approached the middle of May, the weather was getting hotter, and the villagers were busy packing up the dried wheat and storing it. And this month-long wheat rush has officially come to an end.
And Zhu Yong's case was reported to the county, and the county magistrate quickly responded and sent someone to accept the case, and it was none other than Liu Li, the county lieutenant who arrested the Lin family that day.
Today, Liu Li, the county lieutenant, dressed in an official robe, wearing a yellow award, riding a tall horse, led two teams of county guards, and rushed to Shahe Township early.
"County Lieutenant Liu came in person? The lower officials have never greeted him from afar, I hope to forgive me! Wen Chou led a group of villagers out of the Deguan Temple to worship and said.
"Haha, the last time I came, Jun was white, this is just over a month, Jun is the ruler of a township and the lord of an army, it is really terrifying!" Liu Li didn't dare to accept Wen Chou's worship, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and laughed loudly. If Wen Chou only has the rank of Shahe Township, then it is natural for him to be worshiped by Wen Chou, but Wen Chou is still the captain of Taolin, and he is the general of the county court, but he is in the same position as the county lieutenant! How dare he be worshiped by Wen Chou?
Wen Chou knew what he meant, and he didn't bow down, and said with a compliment: "It's not as good as Liu County's lieutenant in charge of a county's pawn, to ensure the safety of the county and township, and to be praised by the head of Qian." β
"Hehe, if you want to protect the territory and the people, I still have to rely on you, the captain of Taolin! Wanwang helps one or two! Liu Li arched his hand and said.
"Liu Jun, what does the county gentleman have to say about the case of Zhu Yong in Zhukouting?" Wen Chou asked while stretching out his hand to signal Liu Li to enter the official temple.
"I came today, it is for this matter, the county gentleman said when I came, 'Shahe Township is the largest township in this county, and it is also the location of the Taolin School Captain's Department, which is the top priority!'" Don't take it lightly! βγ When Liu Li heard this, he said meaningfully.
Everyone entered the Deguan Temple and sat according to this, Wen Chou sat in the hall for the mainstay, and Yan Liang and Wen Ba stood on their left and right. Liu Li is a guest and is in the first place. He was followed by Liu Zhong, Wang Chong and other village officials.
"Oh, the county gentleman has the heart to pay this attention, it is really a blessing for the villagers!" Wen Scandal said with a smile. I thought: "What does the county gentleman mean by this, is he eyeing me?" Indeed, if I have a township with a third of the population of the county, and there is an army stationed there, I am not at ease. Wen Chou smiled bitterly.
Liu Li saw that Wen Wu's face did not change, and he talked and laughed freely, so he couldn't help but nod and said: "In Zhu Yong's case, did Wen Jun torture his guests?" β
"No, but I want to be the county gentleman." As he spoke, Wen Chou took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Lidao.
Liu Li took it, opened it and looked at it for a while, but he was shocked, and said with plastic surgery: "These are all what the people themselves say?" β
"Exactly, they are all said by the people in the township, Zhu Yong has done evil all these years, and he is heinous! Yesterday, he was even arrested, intending to kill us and others! Wen Chou also said strictly.
"So, you killed me? It's okay like this, it's just scum, it's just that he has no parents and brothers, and most of his wives and concubines are forcibly married, and he is also a sufferer! But it is also necessary to arrest the county and let the county magistrate personally interrogate him. Liu Li decided.
"Then, the people of Sanhe are mostly oppressed by Zhu Yong, and I ask the county magistrate to sentence Zhu Yong to compensate for part of his family assets." Wen Chou proposed.
When Liu Li heard this, he pondered for a moment and said: "Wenjun, please rest assured, this is common sense, and I will report it to the county king." β
"In this way, there will be the county lieutenant of Laoliu!" Wen Chou laughed.
"Wenjun, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" Liu Li said worriedly.
"Oh, what advice does Liu Jun have, even if he comes, I will listen to it!" Wen Chou said in a loud ear.
"Today, less than two months after you took office, you have broken two rich people, and the county is deeply worried! Be yourself. Liu Li said with plastic surgery.
Wen Scandal said, thought for a while, and said: "Thank you Liu Jun for reminding me, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future." "Although Wen Chou thinks that he is not strict in government, and he is not cruel to the people, but that is his own feeling, what others think he can't control, and the county Jun is far away in the county, I don't know the details, I only know that Wen Chou first provoked the first to kill the Lin family, and then punished Wen Ji's family, and now he has killed Zhu Yong, before and after more than a month, there have been three incidents of Weizhen County and Township! I think that the ugliness is more than cruel, and the benevolence is insufficient.
β¦β¦
The group discussed some more details until lunchtime, when it was time to finish. Liu Li came from afar, and was personally accompanied by Wen Chou, Wang Chong, Liu Zhong and other village officials to have lunch, and then took Zhu Yong's guests who were imprisoned in prison, and a group of wives and concubines and slaves who were guarding his house, and rushed back to the county. A group of fifty or sixty people, plus the people who were escorted, there were hundreds of people, which disturbed the villagers and many onlookers. Of course, the sound is not big, after all, in this turbulent autumn, that Qianshou is not afraid of officials?
Wen Chou led everyone to send it to the countryside.
Wen Chou looked at Liu Li and his entourage, and escorted the prisoner all the way away, with green mountains and green trees in the distance, and lush grass and flowers nearby, which was so unpleasant. Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, blowing the clothes and waving with the wind, like the battle flag standing in front of the battle array and the camp! Wen Chou thought of Liu Li's words of "doing it for yourself", and couldn't help sighing: "If not, how can it become a big thing?" β
"Big brother, County Lieutenant Liu has gone away, what else are you looking at?" Yan Liang asked.
"Yes, it's all gone, let's go, go home!" Wen Chou said proudly.
"Go back to the house, Wenjun has good ambitions, he should open the door of the mansion for people, and he will be a two-thousand-stone official, so that his protΓ©gΓ©s will be all over the world!" Wang Chong shouted.
"Hehe, yes, the former lieutenant Chen Fan and Chen Zhongju once said, 'The husband should sweep away the world!' Although we don't talk about sweeping the world, only one county guard is not my end! Wen Chou said.
During the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, he did not shy away from fame, even if he was a ruffian in the countryside, and there were many arrogant words.
"The big husband should be a horizontal knife immediately, and he will attack the barbarians and the wolf! Worship the generals, and shadow the descendants. Yan Liang is also arrogant. Wolf Juxu said that the former general Huo Qubing led the army to attack the Xiongnu, went deep into its hinterland Wolf Juxu Mountain, and climbed the Wolf Juxu Mountain to build an altar to worship the sky to achieve success, after this battle, "the Xiongnu escaped, and there was no royal court in Monan." Later, Feng Wolf Juxu became one of the highest honors of the Han people.
"Haha, in this way, I am willing to fight for Ma Fu Bonan, and I will be old and strong, and I don't want to be as short as the champion. Hey. Wen Ba said. This Ma Fubo is Ma Yuan, one of the founding fathers of the dynasty, and made great achievements for the Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu to unify the world. After the unification of the world, although Ma Yuan is old, he still asks Ying to go east to the west, break the Qiang people in the west, and conquer Jiaozhi in the south. His old age and strength, the spirit of the horse leather shroud is even revered by later generations.
"I'm talking about ambition, not wanting to die as early as the champion!" Yan Liang defended when he heard this.
β¦β¦
Wen Chou smiled at Yan Liang and Wen Ba arguing, and saw that Liu Zhong had never said anything on the side, so he smiled and asked, "Zizheng, what is your ambition in this life?" β
"Wen Jun, I don't want to be able to make an inch of progress in the officials, and I have to be recommended by Wen Jun to be able to travel for this township, which is a great luck, I don't dare to say anything ambitious, I just want to be able to follow Wen Jun for a long time." Liu Zhong thought about it, and Gong Jin said.
You Yi is also a hundred stone officials, and he is qualified to wear a seal ribbon, and like a rank Qiangfu, they are all semi-printed and cyanotic ribbons. After Liu Zhong took up this position, he was qualified enough to compete with Wen Chou. However, he has no arrogance and is still very respectful to Wen Chou. And Liu Zhong's Gong Jin and Wen Chou also see it in their eyes and remember it in their hearts.
"Haha, Zizheng's heart, I already know it, but when the husband is alive, he should make contributions and not be confined to the countryside." Wen Scandal said, holding Liu Zhong's hand, said with a long smile.
"What does Wen Jun mean when he said, 'A county guard is not my end'? What are your ambitions? Wang Chong interjected and asked.
Wen Chou saw Wang Chong asking again, facing the gust of wind, looking at the sunset in the distance, muttering for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." I thought, "I have often heard this in the Hereafter, but when I think about it today, it is just right for today's situation." β
The words were closed, Wen Chou took the lead and walked towards the official temple, and everyone saw this and hurriedly followed, but Wen Chou's words still echoed in their hearts, that is, Yan Liang and Wen Ba did not quarrel.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open a peaceful ...... for all generations" Wang Chong was suddenly startled when he heard this, and chanted several times in a row, as if he had a sense of deafening! Xin said: "Wen Jun's good ambition is far beyond our reach!" β
And when Wang Chong came back to his senses from thinking, Wen Chou and the others had already walked a hundred and ten steps away. Hurriedly put down his mind and rushed forward.
