"Are you the Qipin County Commander? No way? 6 Haoshan, who wanted to walk with his legs up, stopped all of a sudden, and said with a puzzled face: "You are an official, why don't you stay at the post station, and come here to stay in a small inn, and still live in this kind of place?" ”

The post station is specially set up for the public officials of the imperial court, and this impoverished scholar in front of him is really a county order, how can he not live in a cheap and comfortable post station, and run to sleep in this broken inn in the firewood room? Isn't this looking for abuse yourself? 6 Haoshan's first feeling is that this person is a liar, in desperation, ready to deceive himself, these years, for a mouthful of food, daughters-in-law can be sold, children can be cannibalized, what else can not be done?

The scholar saw that 6 Haoshan didn't believe it, gritted his teeth, groped out a small brocade bag from under the pillow, and handed it to 6 Haoshan with a little trembling, as soon as he took the brocade bag, his eyes showed a look of pride, and there was a hint of brilliance on his pale face, and he said while handing it over: "This is the official document and official seal given to me by the ministry, brother Tai doesn't believe it, you can check one or two." ”

It won't be to meet peers, 6 Haoshan muttered while taking the brocade bag, as soon as he took it, he felt his hand sinking, opened it, and suddenly appeared solemn on his face, only to see that there was a letter in the brocade bag and a bronze seal, open the document and see, 6 Haoshan can immediately confirm that this is indeed from the ministry of office documents, in the document stated, send 6 Wenhua to Jiangyou County, Long'an Prefecture to serve as a county order, limited to October before the appointment, in addition, there is a copper seal used in the county order.

According to the official system of the Ming Dynasty, it is a product of official silver, three sets. The second product, from the second grade are printed silver, two Taiwan. Positive three officials, in addition to Shuntian, Yingtian two house seal silver, the rest are copper seals, no Taiwan, is a product of the official seal side of the length of three inches and four minutes, the following according to the official product decrease. The small official seal that has not entered the stream below the nine products is called "Article Record", the last word of the seal is "Record", the seal body is rectangular, the general side length is 8 cm long, 4 cm wide, the official seal in the hand of 6 Haoshan is cast by brass, exquisite, generous, rigorous layout, the four words "Jiangyou County Order" are engraved with Yin text on it, the whole official seal is integrated, and there is a kind of indescribable aura faintly exuded under the candlelight, which is definitely the pinnacle of copper products in this era.

Judging from the appointment documents and official seals, the guy named 6 Wenhua in front of him is the new county magistrate of Jiangyou County, Long'an Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, who has not yet taken office.

"It turned out to be 6 adults, the late Liang Yuangao, the ancestral home of Guangzhou Mansion, by the way, I don't know why the adults ended up here?" 6 Haoshan couldn't help but ask.

As soon as he mentioned this, 6 Wenhua's face turned gloomy, and he turned to say with some anger: "Those who are officials are unclean and self-loving, and those who are officials see the wind and steer, and there are only two words of money and silver in the eyes of the people. ”

6 Haoshan hurriedly said good words and comforted, and when he told the truth, he understood that the down-and-out county official in front of him accepted the appointment documents and official seals of the Ministry of Officials, and took leave in advance, extended to the term of office, and was ready to go to Yangzhou to see it and then take office, he calculated that he could borrow it from a friend after the entanglement was used up, but he didn't expect that the friend went out of the house, and he didn't know when he would be able to come back, and other people who knew him heard that he went to the remote and barren Shaanxi to serve, and refused to lend him money, in order to raise travel expenses, 6 Wenhua sold everything that could be sold, including the scholar maid, but as soon as he came out of Yangzhou, he was sick, living in Luo Huayi, there was no serious illness, just raise it for two days, but he lived well and met a royal history with his family to join the post, the room was not enough, the post Cheng in order to please the imperial history, directly lived in Luo Huayi, the lowest official rank of him swept out, 6 Wenhua complained that there was no way, and he was afraid of being ridiculed, so he concealed his identity and stayed in this Changfeng Inn.

was angry with the snobbish postman, his illness worsened, and in order to prepare for the passage and reduce expenses, he sold all the maidservants, and no one took care of him, so he couldn't get up when he got sick, and finally the money ran out and he was driven to the firewood house, and it became what he is now.

6 Haoshan said curiously: "Didn't the shopkeeper just now say that the adult wrote a letter home and sent someone to send money?" How"

"How can there be any family" 6 Wenhua shook his head and said: "6 There is no eldest relative, no wife room, no children under his knees, he has always been alone, writing a letter is just an expedient measure, not to hide it from his brother, this angina is an ancestral inheritance, my grandfather has it, my father also has it, since 6 has not seen a long-lived person for more than three generations, I am afraid that it will be the turn of the official now." ”

6 Haoshan finally understood, why the unappointed magistrate in front of him was so down, and wanted to borrow money, but his best friend was not there, and he didn't know if he was really absent or deliberately avoided him, and other people he knew refused to lend him money, which sounded a bit incredible, a person who was an official wanted to borrow money and couldn't borrow it, the fact is that the Ming Dynasty was notoriously low, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the ancestor who was born in cattle herding, said that he wanted to be an official and wanted to be majestic, and he had to make a large amount of money, which was a dream, so he made a big move in terms of Yulu, The Ming Dynasty officials' Yulu is the lowest in all dynasties, and the officials do not reimburse the road expenses when they take office, so that there are not a few officials who want to borrow money to go on the road, a seven-pin county order, but the monthly Yulu is only seven stones and five buckets, but this seven stones and five buckets still have to eat, drink and Lazar, just like a generation of Qing officials Hai Rui, because there is no gray income, he cut two catties of meat on his mother's birthday, which caused a sensation in the officialdom and can be the plight of Ming Dynasty officials.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was a strange situation, when officials were sent to serve in wealthy places, they would feast guests, and everyone would be happy for him, and if they were sent to poor places to be officials, relatives and friends sighed, as if they were not worth it for him.

And in front of him, 6 Wenhua can't borrow money and silver in the eyes of 6 Haoshan, it is also reasonable, not his official petty money, but his stubbornness, pedantic, will definitely not be corrupt, with his seven stones and five buckets a month, I don't know when I can pay it back, and there is another point, there is no rain in Shaanxi all year round, and the people who have no way to live are either mobs, or they have turned into grass and become cowards, who knows if this 6 Wenhua still has the life to come back alive, and no one wants their money to be wasted.

There were a lot of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, and they could be the county commander of a county, which was killed from thousands of horses and thousands of troops, which could not help but make people envious, but the 6 Wenhua in front of him could only be said to be a lucky unlucky bastard, who fell ill before taking office, and 6 Haoshan could be seen from his face, but he was afraid that he would not last long, and now he was afraid that he would return to the light.

"6 adults, you don't have to worry, you will be fine soon." 6 Haoshan didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort him.

"No, it's not good" 6 Wenhua's face lost the look just now, and his eyes were a little gloomy and said: "I know my illness, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I can't survive tonight, 6 recklessly called 6 brothers to come, but I can't rest assured that there is something to worry about, just because there is one thing I want to bother 6 brothers." ”

6 Haoshan was a little sympathetic to him, but he didn't respond to it, but just considered it and said, "If there is anything, please tell me." ”

This kind of thing can't be dealt with casually, if you let yourself take care of people who are inconvenient to live or pay off debts for him, it's still good not to get into trouble, 6 Haoshan thinks that he is not a wicked person, but he does not dare to consider himself a good person in his bones.

6 Wenhua pointed to the seal letter in the hand of 6 Haoshan, and said weakly: "Now the official is most at ease, that is, the seal letter of this ministry, I can't do it, this seal letter can't be sent back to the ministry, if the official seal is lost outside and falls into the hands of people with bad intentions, there will be endless troubles, please 6 brothers return it to the ministry on my behalf, by the way, don't hand it over to Luo Huayi's people, they are snobbish." ”

After speaking, he added with great effort: "Those snobs are not trustworthy, just now the 6th brother spoke up righteously and spoke with righteousness, and these important letters can only be relieved if they are handed over to your own official."

At this time, 6 Haoshan noticed that the face of the unappointed Qipin county magistrate in front of him did not have the trace of ruddy just now, his eyes were even darker, and his face was as pale as paper, giving people the feeling that it was like a small flame floating in the wind, flickering and fluttering, and it would be extinguished at any time.

No wonder he called himself in the middle of the night, he felt that he couldn't do it, and before he died, he asked himself to return the letter, he didn't look for the shopkeeper but for himself, it is estimated that the shopkeeper has always been very snobbish, he subconsciously didn't believe him, and when he entered the firewood room just now, he was moved by the move of preventing the shopkeeper from carrying him out, at that time Liu Jinzhu said that he was a lifter, 6 Wenhua heard that he was a lifter, he had a little more good feelings, and heard himself speak for him, so he subconsciously believed in himself and entrusted this matter to himself.

"Okay, I promised." 6 Haoshan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

After agreeing, the 6 Wenhua didn't react for a long time, Liu Jinzhu took a closer look, and said in surprise: "Brother Shan, this person, this person has lost his breath." ”

6 Haoshan nodded and said, "Death is death, what's the fuss?" ”

"But Brother Shan, we have a murder case on our part, and now we send these things to the government, wouldn't that be a self-defeating snare?" Liu Jinzhu said with some worry, as soon as he heard that this person was a county magistrate just now, he was so frightened that his face changed on the spot, although he was just a dying patient, but he was still so frightened that he stepped aside and didn't dare to say a word.

"Who said we were going to give it back to the ministry?" 6 Haoshan's eyes revealed a trace of inexplicable excitement, and he suddenly smiled slightly, turned his head and said meaningfully to Liu Jinzhu: "Jinzhu, haven't you always wanted to be an official?" ”

Liu Jinzhu was startled, and said a little nervously: "Brother Shan, what do you mean?"

6 Haoshan nodded, with a light in his eyes, and said: "No, we can still be confused, not to mention that we have real guys in our hands, being a county official is much more comfortable than fleeing everywhere, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, just do a career." ”

Since Wang Er led hundreds of peasants to revolt, 6 Haoshan knew that it was just the beginning, and it didn't take long for people like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to emerge soon, and then Jin would become more and more rampant.

It's like a big pie falling from the sky.

6 Wenhua, who was lying on the ground without breath, didn't know that he had studied hard for decades, and finally made wedding clothes for others, and he never dreamed that the upright scholar in his eyes, the person he might entrust in his eyes, turned out to be a hypocrite, his bones were not cold, and he had begun to plot misdeeds here.

If he was still aware, he would definitely shake his head and sigh at the words "people's hearts are not solid".
