Chapter 52: Unpredictable

Leng Yi smiled and said to Cheng Luojie: "I can't see it, you are quite fierce." ”

Cheng Luojie immediately changed her smiling face, smiled sweeter than honey, and said in a greasy voice: "The old man is laughing at others!" ”

"No, as a head catcher, he should have been a little more powerful, so he didn't lead soldiers!"

"I don't want to lead soldiers, and I don't want to be a head catcher, what's so good about being fierce, in fact, I envy the eldest master, to be able to recuperate in this quiet place away from the world, this is actually a kind of enjoyment."

"Isn't it a place of exile for poor mountains and bad waters? Also enjoyed? ”

"That's what he said!" Cheng Luojie said, "I don't think so, the beautiful mountains and rivers here are also simple, how good, to be the guardian of the big man, and to live in such a good place with the big man, it's really my blessing!" ”

Leng Yi smiled: "You can really talk." ”

"The old man is false!" Cheng Luojie's silver bell-like laughter pasted Leng Yi's delicate body to Leng Yi's body, the fragrant wind fluttered, the long eyelashes like butterfly wings fluttered, and the spring water-like rippling eye waves flowed, skillfully giving Leng Yi a wink.

Leng Yi also smiled, but he chuckled in his heart, good guy, the beauty plan has also come out, what kind of treasure do these people want to find in themselves? Even the beauty trick was used.

At this time, the man brought the horse, and the two turned over and rode to the prefect's yamen.

When they came to the entrance of the yamen, the porter seemed to have been greeted, and quickly let them in. Governor Liao had just cleaned up, glanced at Leng Yi, and saw that he was empty-handed, and frowned: "What about the things you want to bring?" ”

Leng Yi spread his hands: "It's not a secret, except for the more than 20 taels of silver on the body, there is nothing else of value on the lowly position, by the way, there is still some silver money in the inn, but it is ready to return the debt, otherwise, the lowly job will go back and get it, and I will honor Lord Huang first, right?" ”

Liao Zhifu couldn't cry or laugh, waved his hand and said, "Forget it!" Let's go! Lord Huang is afraid that he is already in a hurry! He shook the sleeves of his robe and got into the official sedan chair. The front walked.

Leng Yi and Cheng Luojie followed. Cheng Luojie giggled, and asked Leng Yi in a low voice: "I said sir, do you really have no money, or are you reluctant to pay?" ”

Leng Yi smiled: "Do you think I look like a rich man?" ”

Cheng Luojie smiled and looked him up and down. Pursed his lips and smiled: "It really doesn't look like it." ”

The wealthy merchant surnamed Liu who accepted the transfer envoy was surnamed Liu, and his mansion was near the prefect's yamen, and it didn't take long to arrive.

Liu Fushang had already gotten the news, waited at the gate of the mansion, welcomed them in, and went straight to the back garden.

Liao Zhifu asked Leng Yi to wait at the door, and went in first, Liao Zhifu entered the back garden, came to the hall, and saw Huang Zhuanfu sitting in the warm pavilion in the lobby to enjoy a middle-aged woman playing the pipa. The woman's piano skills were good, and he shook his head when he heard it, and he was really drunk.

Liao Zhifu didn't dare to disturb, stood with his hands down, and waited until the end of the song, when the transfer envoy applauded, and then dared to step forward and bow: "Lord Huang, Leng Yi, the magistrate of Yinling County, is here, waiting outside!" ”

The transfer envoy immediately became interested, waved his hand to let the woman who played the pipa retreat, and asked the Liao prefect, "He came alone?" ”

"No, it's not, take the head catcher Cheng Luojie."

"The official didn't ask this, the official asked him ......, this ......, well, is he, um......, this," the transfer envoy saw that Liao Zhifu was still at a loss, and he was so anxious that he blew his beard and said: "You know!" ”

Governor Liao suddenly said: "I understand that Leng Zhixian came empty-handed. Didn't bring anything. ”

"What?" The transfer envoy was furious, "The official is a member of the fifth grade, summoning him to be an eight-rank sesame official, and he actually came to see the official empty-handed?" - Don't think that they will be safe and sound after paying all their taxes! The official wants him to be horizontal, but he doesn't expect to be vertical! He hasn't figured out the toilet murder case yet! ”

Liao coughed and said, "Lord Huang, the case has been solved, and the two criminals have confessed......

"What a confession!" The transporter said angrily, "Those two are dead! He pushed the case onto two dead people, how cunning he was! Do you think this official doesn't know? You tell him it's not over! ”

Governor Liao frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "My lord, are you still summoning him today?" ”

"Nope! Missing! The transfer envoy said angrily: "He, a sesame petty official, doesn't know how to lift, what does this official do when he sees him!" ”

Liao Zhifu shook his head secretly, thinking that seeing was also what you said, and not seeing was also what you said, what are you going to do, just because people didn't bring you a meeting gift, so you changed your mouth and said no, are you seeing people or money?

Liao Zhifu turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered the matter of the guards, don't regret this matter when the time comes, the person has already gone to Yinling County, and it will be troublesome to call it back. Then he said: "Then which nine guards are equipped for this Leng Zhi County, are they still worthy of him?" ”

"Here! How not to give. The envoy blew his beard and said, "Is this official a person who goes back on his word?" ”

Liao Zhifu almost laughed out loud, and said in his heart, you still haven't backtracked? Hurriedly coughed and said, "It's good to have a guard for him, he was almost killed before, it's better to have a guard." With that, he turned and left.

"Stop!" The transporter shouted, "What did you say?" He was almost killed? ”

"yes!" Liao Zhifu said: "He took his wife and master to go shopping before, bought a maid, the maid was sick, and sent to the pharmacy to see a doctor, but it happened to be a drunk ruffian, who killed his companion with a knife, and then committed suicide, Leng Zhixian was present at the time, and was almost injured by mistake and was scared half to death!" When he went to investigate, he was still trembling! ”

The expression of the transfer made the anger suddenly freeze, he stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said, "What about the three of them?" ”

"Yes! One followed, and two should be in the inn. ”

"I didn't ask this! The officer asked where were the three guards when that happened? ”

"At the inn!"

The transporter said angrily: "What the hell! Why not go along? Didn't the official say it? Close-fitting guards, close-guards! Why don't they listen! Who's in charge except for things?! ”

Liao Zhifu was stunned, the transfer envoy was so angry that he didn't bring a gift to Leng Zhixian before, why did he suddenly care so much about him now? It's a bit inexplicable. Hurriedly bowed down and said, "It should be that when they went to the inn, they had already gone out in Leng Zhi County......"

"You should look for it when you go out! Ask them, what do you do with long legs?! ”

Governor Liao didn't dare to say any more, and bowed his head and stood up.

The transporter slapped the armrest of the chair loudly and said, "If you tell the three of them, just say that the official said it,—— and don't take it as an example!" If there is another incident of leaving the post without a personal guard, the official will dismiss them from their posts and investigate them! ”

"Yes!"

"And! Tell them that if before they find something, Leng Zhi County has three long and two short, let the three of them wipe their necks by themselves! ”

"Yes! Humble duty must be a warning to them. ”

After scolding, the transporter patted the handrail and shouted, "Okay! Get out and get out! ”

Liao Zhifu hurriedly said goodbye, wiped the cold sweat on his head, and thought to himself, this transfer made the adult really difficult to figure out, saying that he was good to Leng Yi, and he blatantly asked him for a bribe, and if he couldn't achieve his goal, he blew his beard and glared at him. said that it was not good for him, and specially equipped him with guards, and was furious because the guards were not in place in time.

When he came to the flower hall, Liu Fushang was talking with Leng Yi. Governor Liao came in, smiled reluctantly, and said to Leng Yi: "Let's go back first." The transfer made the adults no longer visitor. I have something to say about the inn with you. ”

Leng Yi seemed to have expected it, a smug smile was hidden at the corner of his mouth, but a look of panic and disappointment appeared on his face. followed Governor Liao's mansion and left, and went straight back to the Yinling Inn.

When he arrived at the living room of the inn and sat down, Liao Zhifu said with a gloomy face: "You! I told you to prepare a gift, but the messenger refused to see you because you didn't have any gifts and felt that you despised him! I was also scolded by him! ”

"I'm so embarrassed!" Leng Yi smiled apprehensively: "It's a big deal, it's just that I can't get a gift for my humble position, and I still owe a lot of debts that haven't been paid off!" ”

"Okay, okay," Governor Liao waved his hand impatiently, "The matter has passed, don't mention it again, it is estimated that the transfer envoy will not want to see you again!" - Go and call Yin Vulture and the three of them, this mansion has something to command! ”
