Chapter 40: Asking the National Master to spare his life
"No, this good city gate is destroyed like this."
When the prefect on the side heard these people's discussions, his face turned a little pale.
Such a plaque, even he had to complain a little bit when he saw it, not to mention what kind of expression the national teacher would have when he saw it.
Thinking about it like this, the prefect's forehead also shed a little cold sweat.
Either the national teacher is still in the city and hasn't left, so he hasn't seen this plaque, or the national teacher has already left, and then came to settle accounts after the last autumn.
"My lord, my lord, what now?" The official standing next to him asked loudly, obviously this matter had already caused everyone to complain.
If you don't dispose of this again, you will really have to be clicked off by the National Teacher, maybe you can make up for it now, and it will still work.
"Someone, hurry up and take down this plaque."
The prefect thought about it, and hurriedly raised his voice and said, "What the hell are these?" actually came up with such a thing to fool the official, see how foolish the official is, isn't it? It's just unreasonable, why don't you hurry up and take down this plaque, and then hurry up and have people engrave the font on the city wall, you idiots. I'm really. ”
The prefect shouted angrily at these people.
The officials on the side also hurried to get started, walked to the city wall, and hurriedly called people to come, and after getting this plaque down, the city wall was repaired, otherwise, they would all have to eat and hang up.
"What's going on?"
Not far away, it was parked in a not very inconspicuous place on the side of the road, looking at this movement, Pei Huai asked out loud.
Not to mention, he didn't pay attention to the font on the city wall.
Therefore, there is no need to look at the wall.
Although Nie Chenghui went to convey the order yesterday, he threatened the prefect.
But he really didn't pay special attention to this matter, if Xu Xi and Tang Qianling didn't go to eat greedily, and they hadn't come out yet, maybe they would have left a long time ago, and no one would really turn around and look at the font on the city wall.
I didn't expect that this prefect came to make a fuss like this, but it made Pei Huai and Nie Chenghui pay attention to this matter, and they don't know whether to say that this prefect is a little bit back?
Nie Chenghui heard Pei Huai say this, and after reading it carefully, he also replied: "Master, it's about the change of the font on the city wall. It seems that in order to make the city wall change as soon as possible, the prefect actually engraved a plaque with the word Shuocheng and hung it. When many people saw this, they thought it was a bit nondescript. ”
Indeed, it's ugly to death, and this prefect is really a stupid pig!
Such a simple thing, there is no way to complete it smoothly, and the result is so strong to attract their attention, I have to say, this person who can become a prefect is really "amazing" This is!
This is the same strong as the so-called three hundred taels of silver here!
When Nie Chenghui saw this, he had to admire this prefect.
"There's a plaque on the wall?" Pei Huai really heard of this for the first time, so he lifted the curtain slightly and looked towards the city gate.
The already cold face is also a little colder at the moment.
The prefect was still scolding loudly, and the officials on the city wall were already working hard to take down the plaque.
Up and down the city wall, it can be said that it is extremely panicked, and the people on the side are very lively, one by one there are discussions, but there is also a feeling of being in the city.
"Idiot, hurry up, hurry up and take off the plaque for the official, hurry up, why are you so stupid?" The prefect's voice was quite loud, and there was a smell of anger and ruin.
It's just that now it's clamoring here, what was you doing last night when you came up with this solution?
was able to come up with such a solution, I really don't know, how did this prefect come to be?
At this time, the prefect is angry here, and after a while, even the county lord is here, and there is no way to do it, the prefect is already here, can he, a little nine-pin sesame official, not come?
"My lord, my lord, what's the matter?" As soon as the county magistrate saw it, he knew that there was a plaque hanging on the city wall, and he must be pretending to be confused.
He wouldn't have known about the big movement last night?
It's just that he knows in his heart that he knows, and now that things have gone wrong, he naturally can't catch up and catch up, right?
So, the best trick is naturally to pretend to be confused.
He didn't know about it, and it wouldn't be on him afterwards, right?
The prefect looked at this old fox-like county master, and he was a little angry, he knew that after the national teacher asked people to spread the word yesterday, he shouldn't have done such a thing himself, and he should let the people below toss.
When the time comes, if he has merit, his prefect will naturally follow, but if there is such a mistake, it will have nothing to do with him at all.
Why wasn't this brain on this line yesterday? It's on the line today, but the county master is not stupid, and he definitely won't carry this black pot on his body.
In short, now that it's like this, someone has to come out and carry the black pot, right?
"What else could it be, look at it, see what hangs on this wall? The official just asked them to change the font on the city wall back in one night, from the border tomb city back to Shuocheng, and it will be easy to accept it this morning, isn't it? But I didn't expect that after this little rain for half a day, the people below came to report, and it became like this.
This is completely fooling the official, don't you say this is angry? The prefect said to the county lord in a hurry.
With such a sudden explanation, I really removed myself completely.
But the question is, who did this?
"Who's paying attention to this?" The county magistrate approached the prefect and asked in a low voice.
"Who else could it be? I don't like to catch heads in the palace. The prefect said.
This head catcher was retired from the army, so he changed his position, from a ten-captain to the current head catcher in the government, and it is not impossible to say that he has been degraded or promoted?
Anyway, this is the one who came up with such a solution yesterday.
"Oh, it turned out to be You Catcher." The county master said, "But this You Zhutou has always done things very neatly, why did he do such a foolish thing this time?" ”
"Who's to say it's not?" The prefect said.
"It's just that I don't know why the words on this wall should be replaced? But a decree was made from above? The county master asked in a low voice.
If there is a decree from above, then this is a blatant confrontation with the national teacher of the current dynasty.
You must know that the name of this town was changed by the National Teacher himself, and I am afraid that even if the Holy Lord wants to change it today, he will have to think about it.
Therefore, the county lord is very curious, where is the wind blowing?
"Not the will of the above." The prefect said, "But it is even more terrifying than the will of the above. ”
"Could it be ......" The county magistrate guessed at once, and then shouted, before he finished speaking, he was covered by the prefect at this time.
In short, this is a fact that you can't say that.
The county master nodded knowingly, knowing that he was a little excited just now.
After the prefect let go of his mouth, the county lord asked in a low voice, "Yesterday, the national teacher came?" ”
"Nope." The prefect said, "It's just that the National Teacher sent someone to say yesterday that if you give this official a night's time, you must change this city wall, don't I just let You Zhutou do it?" I didn't expect that there would be such a thing. Now I just don't know if this national teacher has received the news. ”
Hearing the prefect's words, the county magistrate suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the prefect.
You know, if this is issued by the above, it will be considered a fool to give some money, and then, after the matter is over, just get it right.
However, this national teacher ......
Who doesn't know, the national teacher himself is a person who can't get oil and rice, and the people around him are like this one by one, and no one's face is sold, so this matter has to be done well, otherwise, if this board is knocked down, the county master will feel pain when he thinks about it.
"Where is the person sent by the National Teacher?" The county magistrate asked.
"I don't know." The prefect said very irritably, "If the official knows, can he still stand here and keep people busy?" I have long ago begged for tolerance. ”
As soon as the county magistrate heard this, he immediately sympathized with the prefect even more.
It seems that this board is destined to be beaten, but I don't know if it's heavy?
But don't hit him, otherwise, you will be innocently implicated.
"It's just a change of name, how did you get it like this?" Pei Huai frowned dissatisfied.
Such a big movement is easy for people to know his whereabouts, and I originally wanted to go quietly to investigate, but now it is not suitable to go.
Actually, Nie Chenghui didn't expect it to be like this.
Originally, he thought it would be carried out quietly, and it was precisely because of this that he would say to the prefect that it would be done at night.
In this way, they left quietly in the morning, and by the time everyone knew that the city wall had changed its name, the purpose of their trip would have been achieved long ago.
Besides, no one knows whether it was the order issued by the national teacher or the will from above, so it is up to others to guess, but now, it is obvious that this prefect has messed up the matter.
Nie Chenghui immediately turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee, and said with a plea: "Master, it's all the disciples' ineffective handling of things, which disrupted the master's plan. ”
