Chen Tang's words are to ask Gou Shen, what to do in this situation.

Gou Shen smiled and asked, "Did the county lieutenant have dinner in the evening?" ”

Chen Tang didn't know why Gou Shen asked him if he had eaten at this time, so he nodded, and Gou Shen smiled again: "It is said that the county lieutenant handles the case, although Gou Shen is a county order, it is not easy to talk nonsense, but the official feels that this Chu family seems to have the intention of letting the Yingshui County Ya move to his Chu family to work, what does Brother Zi think?" ”

When Chen Tang heard this, he stood up and bowed down and said, "County order, Tang, understand." ”

Chen Tang immediately understood what Gou Shen meant, in fact, when he waited for Gou Shen to come back, he just asked Gou Shen to express his position and see how to deal with the Chu family's rhetoric.

Chen Tang was about to leave, but Gou Shen smiled and said: "Brother Zi is not busy, there is still something to tell you about in this county, so I will ask Brother Zi to gather all the county officials." ”

The county order was convened, and after a while, the people of Yingshui County and the county government gathered together.

The county lieutenant Chen Tang and the county Cheng Kou Dehai came down to be the chief of the county government, the chief bookkeeper of the officials, the chief bookkeeper of the main bookkeeper and the chief bookkeeper of the documents, the main financial Shaofu, the door of the thief Cao, the household Cao, the door of the senator Cao, the door of the Peng Shi, the Lu Shi, the county Zuo, the county history and the servants of Cao stood in a courtyard.

When everyone arrived, someone invited Gou Shen to come out.

Gou Shen will be dressed neatly, see everyone, do not speak, but he paced to the ring stone and stood for a while, looking at the words written on it, "Gongsheng is bright, partial is dark", Kou Dehai thought that Gou Shen was going to send some emotion, so he was ready to go over to greet him, Gou Shen went up the steps, and said to everyone: "Everyone, this official announces one thing, from today onwards, the officials, subordinates, and servants who are directly handed over to the people in the county government will be doubled in salary to support their integrity." ”

"Alright, everyone disperse."

Gou Shen called everyone together and only talked about it?

Everyone is inexplicable, but a salary increase is a good thing, who doesn't like to pay more?

After Gou Shen finished speaking, he went back to the back hall, and only Chen Tang understood what Gou Shen was doing.

If you want the horse to run, you have to let the horse eat enough, and the salary increase was originally an edict of the emperor.

Gou Shen's attitude was clear, and Chen Tang had no scruples in his heart, so he counted the manpower, took the lead and went straight to the Chu family.

Chen Tang took the servants to the door of the Chu family, stood on the horse, looked at the subordinates and was silent, and waited for these people to stand quietly and wait for him to speak, before saying: "Just now the county order doubled your salaries in the county office, that is the grace of the county order, and it is the compassion of the Son of Heaven." ”

"Now, the official has taken everyone to the Chu family to ask about the case, if anyone feels that they are in the way, or if they have other ideas, they can leave now, and the official will not blame."

After Chen Tang finished speaking, he looked at these waiters condescendingly, and the waiters looked at each other, and they all said, "We are willing to obey the dispatch of the county lieutenant." ”

"Good! Under the whole world, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister! This official is grateful for the county's order to raise love, adhering to the Yingshui County public security and theft, and now he is going to Chu's house to take Chu Heng to ask about the case, if the Chu family cooperates, then it's okay, if you obstruct and find an excuse, do you know what to do? ”

The attendants said, "Oh! "Yes.

Chen Tang said in a muffled voice, "Call the door!" ”

After Chen Tang said this, he rode on his horse and watched the officials act.

At this time, it was a little dark, and the Chu family had already closed the door, and when they heard the commotion outside, they opened the door to see.

But as soon as the door was opened, it was pushed open by a swarm of attendants, and the gate was opened round, leaving two standing guards, and the rest of the people bypassed the wall and entered the compound.

The Chu family was eating, and suddenly a group of errands came to the courtyard, noisy and shouting, Chu Xinping, the second young master of the Chu family, asked what was going on in the hall, and someone replied that the people from Yingshui County had come to make trouble again.

A waiter with the tip of his ear shouted loudly: "What a trouble!" Again? Are we robbers! ”

"I waited for the order of the county magistrate of Yingshui County, and came to take Chu Heng to the county office, if I have something to ask him, quickly call him out to be happy."

Chu Xinping was angry: "Just come here again, call your county lieutenant who is in charge of the thief!" ”

"You're all going to get out of the house!"

The waiter who answered just now was a stunned young man, and he didn't know Chu Xinping, so he said, "Get out of your mother!" Are you Chu Heng? ”

Chu Xinping replied: "How? ”

"Take it!"

Chu Xinping was furious: "Take you bird!" It's your grandfather Chu. ”

"Your mother!"

This waiter Cao is usually arrogant, just now the county order gave a salary increase, inspirational to perform, here was Chu Xinping's words and insults, scolded a sentence and took the whistle stick and rushed to the hall, was stopped by the Chu family.

At this time, Chen Tang walked in from outside, opened his mouth and asked, "Did Chu Heng get it?" ”

Chu Xinping saw that Chen Tang was wearing official clothes, so he came over and said, "This master, dare to ask what happened?" ”

Chen Tang said: "There is a case in the county that wants Chu Heng to go back for questioning, earlier the official sent someone to come, your Chu family said that you want to let the official come to the Chu family for questioning, the official is here, I don't know Chu Heng, where is it?" ”

The housekeeper Chu Heng has been hiding behind people since he saw the official entering the mansion, and when he saw the second young master and the county lieutenant talking together, he walked out with a reliance in his heart.

Chu Xinping saw that the county lieutenant was really here, but he was not ruthless, and pointed at Chu Heng and said: "This is Chu Heng, if you want to ask anything, please do it." ”

Chen Tang looked at Chu Heng's fat growth, and asked, "Are you Chu Heng?" ”

Chu Heng replied, "Yes." ”

"Tie up!"

When Chu Heng arrived, he was tied up by the officials, and Chu Heng struggled and kept shouting: "I am wronged, I am wronged." ”

Chu Xinping was angry: "Why do you take people for no reason, and is there any royal law?" ”

Chen Tang didn't look at it, turned around and left, as soon as the waiter Cao took Chu Heng to follow behind, the waiter Cao who scolded Chu Xinping just now squinted his eyes and spit on the ground, Chu Xinping saw it and shouted: "Stop it!" What kind of place do you think the Chu family is, come when you say you, and leave when you say you go! ”

More than a dozen subordinates of the Chu family blocked the door, and one by one, Chen Tang said, "Have you figured it out?" ”

The Chu family naturally listened to the young master's orders, and no one left the gate, so Chen Tang shouted in a low voice: "Take them all!" ”

These servants are usually accustomed to seeing the scene of fighting, as soon as they saw the county lieutenant speak, they sold their strength on the spot, took the whistle stick, the ruler and the iron shackles, rushed up and hit, and immediately heard only the fists, feet and sticks intertwined with each other, and for a time the gate of the Chu Mansion was noisy and shouting, and the chatter was so lively.

Chen Tang's face was as usual, and when his subordinates tied up the dozen or so servants, he walked out.

Chu Xinping was furious and shouted: "You dog official, you are going to die!" "Friends! Rob Referral Tickets! Hand them all over! 】
