Chapter Twenty-Six: The County Order is Pleased
"In recent years, there have been many people who have moved to Ailing, and many of them are women with children, most of whom are from Wu State. As soon as the people of Wu learned that Yue Guo was going to crusade against Wu Guo, they immediately moved out of Wu State, and there were indeed many people who came to Ailing, I don't know who Mr. asked specifically, is there a name? An old man said to me, "If you have a name, it's better to find some." ”
"Her name is He Sui'er, but I don't know if she has changed her surname or incognito." I shook my head helplessly.
The old man patted me lightly on the shoulder, smiled and said, "We will meet by fate!" ”
I searched again but to no avail, and by this time my stomach was already rumbling, so I went to a nearby wine shop called "Guangxing", ready to fill my stomach first.
After a while, a group of people came to the wine shop, looking at their clothes, it should be some people from the county office, and the young man immediately went over to entertain: "What are you going to eat today?" ”
"All the good wine and food are up, don't you see a group of us?" They said in a gruff voice.
"These scoundrels!" A man at the table next to me scolded softly, "Pickled! ”
The yamen were about to leave after eating, and I was still drinking slowly. "Ladies and gentlemen." I saw the young man in the wine shop hurriedly running over.
"What? We're going back to the Yamen to handle business, you dare to stop us? ”
The shopkeeper walked out, "Ladies and gentlemen, we are also a small business, we really can't stand you eating and drinking like this, you have already paid the account on credit eleven times, how much shellfish coins will be given today." The shopkeeper pleaded, "I beg you!" ”
The gang simply ignored it and said angrily, "Noise! It's not that we don't give you money on credit, we work very hard all day long, what's wrong with eating a few meals from you? If it weren't for our security, would you still be able to keep this liquor store open? I don't know who smashed and robbed it, but you are embarrassed to ask us for money? Then they went out.
"Without you scoundrels, our lives would be much better than they are now!" The man at the table next to me suddenly erupted.
The gang turned back and walked up to him, "What did you just say?" We didn't hear it. ”
The man stood up and said slowly: "I said, you are ruffians, scoundrels, and wastes, you know how to loot the people's money and do nothing, and you know that you are tyrannical, filthy, and despicable people in the name of the government!" ”
"Well said!" The people next to him all stopped eating and echoed in unison.
I don't know who led the group of people in the yamen, and swung a fist at the man who stood up, and then they all followed him, and the man was powerless to parry, and was instantly knocked to the ground.
"Why are you still beating people?" The people on the side accused.
"Because he insulted us!" The gang of hooligans replied.
"Smack!" I don't know who threw the bowl, and it smashed directly on the head of a person in the yamen, and the bowl was torn apart, and that person's head was also smashed to the point of blood, and he fainted on the ground.
They took out their sticks one after another and said sharply, "Are you fat in your guts?" Don't even think about running today. With that, they came menacingly.
"You have to be merciful and forgiving!" I spoke slowly, not loud, but they could hear it clearly.
For a while, they all came around, "Look at you are a foreigner, what kind of knight do you wear a mask?" As he spoke, one of them reached out and tried to remove the mask from my face.
With a backhand wave, I grabbed his wrist and twisted it vigorously, "Ah! It hurts, it hurts! Let go! He screamed in pain.
The sticks rained down on me, and I jerked them so hard that the man blocked them all for me, "Ah! He let out a scream.
I stood up, made a way out of the encirclement with lightning speed, picked up a stick and fought them. Anyway, I have also honed on the battlefield, and it is more than enough to beat these people, and after a while, they will fall and run.
"Well played!" The people on the side cheered for me, and rushed up and kicked the group of people who fell to the ground a few times, kicking and saying, "You can endure!" ”
I took out all the shell coins from them in turn and handed them to the shopkeeper, "This is the money they owe you for a dozen meals, it should be about the same." I took out a dozen punshell coins from my bosom and handed them to him, "This is the money for my meal and the smashed tables and chairs." ”
The shopkeeper said that he would not accept my compensation money, "It's too late to thank Mr. for today's incident, how can I ask you to lose money?" The shopkeeper suddenly grabbed my arm, "Hero! I have something to ask for! He hesitated.
"Say anything."
"These bastards will definitely not give up, I am afraid that they will come back to make trouble and smash my liquor store, so I want to ask the hero to stay, I can pay you a certain amount of shellfish."
"I can stay, I don't want your money, you just need to take care of my daily meal."
"Okay! No problem! The shopkeeper happily replied.
I walked up to the people who were still slumped on the ground, kicked them, and said coldly, "Go back and tell your Lord that I am waiting for him here." ”
"Get out! Get out! The people on the side coaxed.
They struggled to their feet and helped each other out of the liquor store.
Sure enough, the next day they came to the liquor store again, and I was ready to fight, but they didn't seem to have the momentum to make trouble. The leader walked in front of me with an angry expression on his face, "The county order is please!" Please also ask my husband to come with us to the county office. ”
"Why should I go with you?" I vetoed it outright.
"It's a good thing for the county order to invite you to go, not for you to be punished."
"I don't care if he has any good things, if I don't go, I won't go."
"Let's tell the truth, the purpose of the county order to let us come this time is to be sure to invite Mr. to the yamen, if we don't bring Mr. over, the county order will blame us and we won't have a good life." The tone of their speech suddenly softened, "Yesterday's incident was our fault, we were at fault first, Mr. beat us back, we admit it, but now I implore Mr. to go with us to the Yamen and gradually order the county." ”
I said in a vague way, "I can go with you, but I have one request. ”
"Sir, please."
"If I don't stay here in the future, don't take credit when you eat in this wine shop, and serve the people well, instead of bullying and oppressing them, I will go with you if you promise."
"Okay, we promised, we will serve the people well."
"Alright, I'll go with you." I followed them.
After walking some distance, we arrived at the Ailing County Ya, and the official said to me respectfully: "Sir, please come in, the county magistrate has been waiting in the lobby for a long time." ”
I walked into the lobby, and a bloated man sat on the Taishi chair, presumably he was the county magistrate. It's really strange, the county order of Han County and the county order of Ailing are so bloated, it makes me feel that the body of the county order in the world is the same, it's really funny.
"Sir is here!"
"Well, is there something the county commander is looking for me today?"
"Sir, please be seated first." The county magistrate pointed to the seat in front of him, "Mr. Listen to the accent is not from Ailing, I don't know where Mr. is from, and what should he call him?" ”
"The contemptible person's surname is He, from Wu Guohan County."
"Oh, Mr. Ho. By the way, Wu was annexed by Yue a while ago, is it because of this, or for some other reason? The prefectural magistrate asked.
I smiled politely, "Find someone." Probably in the place of Ailing. ”
"Traveled thousands of miles from Han County of Wu State to Ailing of Qi State to look for someone, presumably this person is particularly important to Mr. He."
"It's really important." I said unabashedly, "Although she doesn't want to see me, I just want to see how she is doing now, so that I can have a bottom in my heart." ”
"Mr. He, our yamen needs a martial artist like you as a soldier." The county order directly stated, "That's what I asked you for today, and I hope Mr. He will consider this position." ”
I didn't think about it, I was straightforward: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested." ”
"We can help you find someone." The prefectural magistrate said, "But yesterday I heard that Mr. knocked down one of my subordinates by himself, and I wanted to ......."
"Yesterday I was heavy, I'm here to say sorry, I'm sorry."
"No, no, no, I don't want you to apologize, but I hope you can be the soldier of the Yamen, and I will mobilize the entire Yamen and even the entire Ailing people to help you find it."
"No need, thank you for the kindness of the county order, I believe I can find it."
The county commander shook his head lightly and said, "The strength of the people is definitely stronger than the strength of the individual, think about it, as long as I mobilize the entire Ailing people, wouldn't it be easy to find the person you are looking for?" And I can help you with any difficulties you encounter in Ailing in the future, as long as you promise me to be a soldier. ”
I was a little tempted by what he said, and I asked, "What is the position of Bingcao?" ”
"It is the official who manages the military affairs of the Yamen."
"Do you count? As long as I promise to be a soldier, you will help me find someone. ”
"Of course!"
"Good! Then I promise you. I said eagerly, "Trouble the county order to help me find someone now, and quickly mobilize personnel." ”
"But there's one more thing for you." The county order is selling guanzi.
"What else?"
"Our county government already has a soldier, I ......"
I couldn't help but interrupt him again: "I can be his deputy." ”
"How can someone like you be a deputy?" The county magistrate said, "I want you to take his place, Zhao Bingcao is already old, and he is not suitable for wielding guns and sticks all day long, so naturally he is not suitable to continue to serve as Bing Cao." ”
"I obey the arrangement of the county order, as long as the county order is willing to help me find someone as soon as possible."
"I just appreciate a hearty person like Mr. He, okay, I'll send someone to tell Zhao Bingcao now, let him give way, and you will go to the second hall immediately to take over all Zhao Bingcao's duties." The prefectural commander stood up happily, the fat on his body swaying, and the horizontal flesh on his face compacted together because of laughter.
"Lao Li." The prefectural magistrate shouted loudly.
The man who called Lao Li ran over and asked with a pant, "What do you have to say?" ”
"Take Mr. He to the second hall to take over the position of Zhao Li's soldier, and in addition, you send someone to Zhao Li's house to tell him that he will not use the yamen in the future, saying that I have found a suitable person to replace him." After the prefectural order was finished, he walked away slowly.
