Tongchuan Mansion, government office. The main hall is hung "Mirror Hanging".

Under the plaque, on the official chair, Governor Zhang sat there, his face was so cloudy that it seemed to be dripping.

As a result, the three classes of officials were all upright, and they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.

was shocked, and Governor Zhang was waiting for his official prestige. Suddenly, there was a noise in the back hall, and a noble lady in her forties rushed straight to the little Taoist priest, and without saying a word, she stretched out her hand to scratch it.

The drunken Taoist hurriedly blocked it, he was so tall that the woman couldn't scratch it when she jumped up, and immediately cried: "Zhang Yi, it was these two killings that hurt my son." Pity my son since he was a child, how have he ever been touched by half a finger. Today, he was carried back alive. My mother's heart, it hurts! ”

She turned around and pointed at Governor Zhang's mansion angrily, and shouted: "These two killers are standing here in a dignified manner, why don't you hurry up and kill them, throw them away to feed the dogs, why are you sitting here stupidly?" You are the lord of a house, and you are so incompetent? Do you have to ask me, a woman, to stab these two people with a knife! ”

Governor Zhang smiled bitterly: "Madam, above the court, how can you talk about the law of the country." If you come up, you will be killed directly, but your husband is an official, not a bandit. ”

The woman sneered, "The law of the land? Don't you know that there are still few filthy things in this court? With this one more, will it be possible to dirty this land? ”

She suddenly pointed at her halberd and said angrily: "I see, it's you Zhang whose wings are stiff and have a black heart." Hmph, you've done a good job! Let someone else kill my son, and then sadly kill me as a mother, just as you want. Without my yellow-faced woman, you can accept ten rooms and eight concubines, and you will have ten or eight more children, and you will live freely from now on, yes or no? ”

Governor Zhang was furious: "You, you woman, how can you say such nonsense without nose and eyes." ”

The woman cried, "Okay, you have one! If it weren't for my father's list to catch a son-in-law, I would have been a famous lady, how could I marry you as a poor man who herds cattle in Sanjia Village. Now with the power of my mother's family, you are developed, and you dislike me. Okay, okay, I'll take my son back to my mother's house, I want to see how long you can be proud! ”

Above the mansion, the dignified prefect was pointed at his nose and scolded so angrily, and Governor Zhang's face was blue and white for a while. He wanted to get up and slapped the woman in the face to cheer up the "husband". But after struggling for a while, he sat down on the official chair.

Governor Zhang swallowed his anger and explained: "Madam, what you said is unreasonable. I'm so old that even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to have children. You have always known that my family has two generations of single inheritance, and my son is the only root of my Zhang family. Even if I am stupid to the sky, I dare not let people hurt my son! If this only root goes wrong, my Zhang family will be dead. In that case, after I die, how can I have the face to meet the ancestors of the Zhang family! ”

Hearing that he softened, the woman said proudly: "Zhang Yiyi, even if you still have a little brain, you haven't been hooked by the fox spirit outside." Let me tell you this clearly, your son has woken up, crying and making a fuss in the room, clamoring to kill these two killers quickly. You can do it yourself. Otherwise, be careful that you become Zhang Wuhou! ”

The woman left triumphantly, and the faceless Governor Zhang sat on the official chair and couldn't stop sighing.

This farce made the little Taoist priest stunned. When I first met Governor Zhang, I only thought that he was so powerful. But looking at it at the moment, I only think that he is such a poor man!

Hey, he was ridden on the face and by his wife, and his husband did it, he was really ashamed of the one under his crotch.

Wait, if I really marry that wicked woman, will it be like this? Thinking of this, the little Taoist priest shuddered and quickly stopped this ominous thought.

After a long while, Governor Zhang finally swallowed this evil breath, and he was shocked, and the "good official authority" that had just disappeared instantly returned to his body. And, after enough rest, the shaking is even worse.

As soon as there was a startling sound, they had been standing like clay sculptures, deaf, and blind in the third class of officials, and their bodies shook together, and they all came back to life.

Governor Zhang said coldly: "Li Caoguan, tell me about the top and bottom of the mansion, what are the big and important cases recently?" ”

Li Caoguan naturally understood what his boss meant, and immediately responded: "At the beginning of the year, three thieves entered the county's Zuo Zhangyuanwai house at night and defiled two women, including Zhang Siniang, who has not yet left the cabinet, and this case is unknown. ”

Governor Zhang high-fived: "This is okay." ”

"In the middle of the year, there were masked gangsters in Lijia Village, outside Yanting County, who committed armed assault, injured seven people and robbed three ploughing cattle, and the case was unsolved."

Governor Zhang asked: "Is it done by outsiders?" ”

Li Caoguan replied: "Listening to the accent, it should be done by the people of this house." ”

Governor Zhang sighed: "This is no." ”

……

If there was no one beside these two people, between asking and answering, they put six or seven major sins on the little Taoist priest and the drunken Taoist priest, and they were all capital crimes of "asking and beheading after the autumn".

The little Taoist priest was dumbfounded, speechless, and couldn't believe his ears: This kind of child's play can break such a big case and take the life of the person he wants?

Sure enough, the county order that broke the family, and the order Yin who destroyed the door!

The drunken Taoist had an expression of "as expected", he was also single, but he just looked up at the "mirror hanging" hanging high in the main hall, and he didn't even say a word.

After the arrangements were made, Governor Zhang directly waved his sleeves and shouted: "Retreat!" ”

From beginning to end, he didn't even look at the little Taoist priest directly, just like this, he made a conclusion!

Sure enough, the mirror hangs high!

The officials standing on both sides shook their heads, and were about to disperse, but they listened, but they heard the little Taoist priest suddenly laugh, and he laughed very happily.

Governor Zhang turned around sharply and said angrily: "What are you laughing at?" When you are dying, you dare to laugh like this. Also, you don't think you're dying fast enough. Okay, very good, I will arrange it, and you are satisfied! ”

The little Taoist priest bent down with a smile, he laughed, pointed at Zhang Zhifu and said with a smile: "I'm laughing at you!" laugh at your beloved son as your life, but you have to be deceived by your beloved son. I laugh at you again, thinking that everything is under control, but I don't know that if you don't ask me, you will become Zhang Wuhou! ”

Governor Zhang was so angry that his beard shook wildly, and blurted out: "You, you fart!" ”

The little Taoist priest sneered: "Lord Futai, I guess you don't know yet, why did your beloved son go to me for trouble?" Those yamen are now in the house, so what's going on, you can ask your lord. ”

He snorted coldly: "The only seedling wants to pass on the incense of the Zhang family, hehe, no one can be humane, I see how to pass on this incense!" ”

The four words "inhumane" were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the thunderbolt made Governor Zhang stumble and almost fall. He stabilized his body and said angrily: "You, you are talking nonsense. ”

After speaking, Governor Zhang didn't care about anything else, and hurried to the back hall to ask what was going on. Before leaving the door, he paused, turned around and said, "Take him to prison first." ”

After a pause, he added: "Tell me to go down, and I will not be treated badly." ”

The cell is one of the darkest places in the world. If there is no "no bad treatment", the little Taoist priest will be worse than death. If you don't do it, even "chastity" will not be guaranteed. But with these four words, it should be the right thing to do, and stay in an inn for one night.

Although the conditions of this inn are too simple. But at least, it's not dirty or smelly, it's still a single room.

"Tall, brother, you're really tall!" The drunken Taoist gave a thumbs up and shouted.

"It's nothing." The little Taoist priest is very modest.

"That's so high!" The drunken Taoist slapped the little Taoist on the shoulder, and the force was so strong that the little Taoist bared his teeth in pain: "Brother, I thought that I had been wandering the rivers and lakes for decades, but now I am completely planted." Unexpectedly, brother, you said it in a few words, what's the matter, there's no. ”

"That's it." The little Taoist priest nodded proudly: "Fortunately, the dog official's wife came to make a fuss, otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to catch his lifeline." ”

"Brother," the drunken Taoist was still a little worried: "The so-called 'two mouths of official words', can we really pass this pass safely?" ”

The little Taoist patted his chest and promised: "Brother put ten thousand hearts." You and I can see at a glance that the yin energy in the body of that Zhang Ya is very strong, and the yang energy, hehe, is like a residual candle in the wind, which will be extinguished at any time. With his body, even if all the beauties in the world stripped naked and stood in front of him, he couldn't think of lifting it again. ”

"His inaction is caused by a female ghost, Ren is the reincarnation of Hua Tuo, and he is afraid that he can't do anything. Therefore he will ask me for this. ”

"You say, with such a big lifeline in my hands, what can the dog officer do to the two of us?"

On the second day, the cell boss opened the cell door and said, "Daochang Zhang, Lord Futai is invited." ”

As soon as he heard the word "please", the little Taoist priest's heart was completely settled.

followed a long history to the study, and Governor Zhang was waiting, playing with a gold ingot in his hand.

"Sit." Governor Zhang said lightly: "In the package of the Taoist chief, there are six gold ingots. Where did these gold ingots come from? ”

When he said the words "where did it come from", his voice suddenly raised, as if he was interrogating.

"Why is this asking?" The little Taoist priest pondered. By the way, the bottom of the gold ingot can be engraved with the word "Chen".

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and the little Taoist priest sat down with Shiran: "Twenty or thirty miles south of Cangzhou Mansion, Chen Daguan." ”

"Oh? Those who can cast this real gold will be a rich and noble family. Near Cangzhou Mansion, I don't remember, who is qualified for this! ”

"More than a month ago, Chen Daguan just resigned from Ying Tianfu and returned to his hometown. Since I went back, I have never lived in seclusion and never seen outsiders, so not many people know about it. ”

Governor Zhang thought for a moment, and suddenly got up and exclaimed: "Actually, it's that Chen Daguan." ”

"Who is Senior Official Chen?" The little Taoist priest also wanted to know, but on the surface, he just replied lightly, "Exactly".

Governor Zhang walked around the study twice and said, "No, you are a little Taoist, how can you have anything to do with that adult?" ”

The little Taoist priest replied: "There is already a lot of friendship between the respected master and the adult. Some time ago, when I went to visit that adult, I happened to meet his only son who had fallen into an evil spirit. The situation this time was very similar to this one, except for the female ghost, the treatment I received was very different. ”

Governor Zhang didn't seem to understand the irony in his words, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Zhang Daoren, between you and me, let's make a deal!" ”
