Text Chapter 7 Havoc in the prefect's yamen

Master Zhang took the greeting post to the mansion of the Duke of E, and was led by a small servant through more than a dozen corridors in front and back. When he came to a side room, a middle-aged man in charge came out and asked, "You are Master Zhang in the mansion of Master Liu in Fengzhou, right?"

Master Zhang smiled: "It is here, dare to ask Your Excellency what to call it?"

The middle-aged man said: "You and I happen to be in the same clan, and I am Zhang Kui, the steward of the uncle's room." ”

Master Zhang smiled: "It turned out to be the elder brother of the family, I don't know where the ancestor of the old brother lives?"

Zhang Kui said: "The ancestor is the father of Yingchuan City, the ancestor Zhang Liang, who has come to me for exactly the eighteenth generation." ”

Master Zhang said: "Oh! It turns out that you and I are brothers of the same generation. The eldest brother is now doing things in the Guogong Mansion, and I hope to bring the younger brother more in the future!"

Zhang Kui said: "I miss you and my ancestors from staying in Zhang Liang to this day, people have always been relatively thin, and they should support each other. Now that you and I are brothers in our own family, there is something I have to ask. ”

Master Zhang was puzzled: "Big brother has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Zhang Kui said: "Have you ever heard of the Heavenly Master Sect?"

Master Zhang said: "What the eldest brother is talking about is the Heavenly Master Sect who is now in charge of the Qin Heavenly Prison and is responsible for supervising the temples in the world?"

Zhang Kui said with a smile: "Exactly, but the founding patriarch Zhang Tianshi once left a canon, and the sect leaders of the past generations must pass on the descendants of my Zhang family." Now today, the master of the teacher is an ancestor of my Zhang family. The deputy sect advocates that Mu Ren is a rare genius in a hundred years, and his other identity is that I am the supervisor of the Qin Heavenly Prison. ”

Master Zhang said: "There are such characters in this family, it would be good if I could recognize a clan relative." ”

Zhang Kui said with a smile: "Brother Xian, don't hide it, one of my clan brothers in my hometown happens to be working in the Heavenly Master Sect. Not long ago, under his recommendation, I was able to recognize my clan. ”

Master Zhang looked left and right and saw that there was no one around, took out a pair of jade horses from his cuffs, handed them to Zhang Kui, and said, "Big brother, this is what the younger brother recently spent a lot of effort to get from the merchants of the Western Regions. Today is a good time to make a meeting gift with my eldest brother. ”

Zhang Kui returned the jade horse and shirked: "No merit is not rewarded, this gift of virtuous brother is too valuable, how can I bear it, eldest brother." ”

Master Zhang hurriedly stuffed the jade horse back into Zhang Kui's hand and said, "If the eldest brother doesn't accept the younger brother's meeting gift, he won't recognize me, my own brother." If the eldest brother really wants to bring the younger brother with him, can he let the younger brother go to the Heavenly Master Sect to recognize a clansman?"

Zhang Kui took the jade horse into his arms and said, "This matter is wrapped up in Brother Wei." There is only one thing that needs to be reminded of the virtuous brother, now that Qin Tianjian is in charge of the temples in the world, it is the time to employ people, and all the children of the family surnamed Zhang who have made meritorious contributions can be promoted to take charge of the affairs of one party. ”

Master Zhang said excitedly: "It's really a blessing to meet the eldest brother today!"

While the two were talking, the guests in the inner room had already said goodbye and left. Zhang Kui introduced Master Zhang into the room. handed the letter to Governor Liu's eldest cousin, Wei Chi Mingze.

Wei Chi Mingze didn't ask questions, and directly opened the letter. Master Zhang saw that Yu Chi Mingze was a burly figure, and a pair of tiger eyes made people dare not look directly. Master Zhang secretly said in his heart: "The prince of this country's mansion is really not an ordinary person. ”

After reading the letter, Yu Chi Mingze asked, "Master Zhang, my cousin said in the letter that there was a demon in Fengzhou City who poisoned the people. Where did this demon come from?"

Master Zhang bowed and said, "Back to the world, this demon seems to have appeared out of thin air, and the demon law is too powerful." Now the entire Fengzhou people are making a living. And there was no one in the city who could cure him, and he did not find out what the source was. That's why my lord sent me to the Shizi's mansion to move the rescuers. I also hope that the prince will save my master's life for the sake of the old lady. ”

Wei Chi Mingze said: "Even if it is a nameless monster, it must not be able to make any big trouble." Zhang Kui, you take my prayer post to the Spirit Ape Mountain and ask the Spirit Ape Ancestor to arrange a few powerful apprentices to help my cousin catch demons. ”

Wei Chi Mingze's arrangement has been decided, and Master Zhang thanked him again.

It is said that Song Xiaoxiao and his gang, under the urging of Old Man Hou, completed the procurement of items in Yiying in half a day. Old man Hou then urged: "Now that the matter is done, let's hurry up and go back." ”

Hou Er bothered: "Boss, we finally came out. Wouldn't it be a loss to rush back so early?"

Song Xiaoxiao also followed: "Yes, yes, I still have a lot to eat." How can you go back so quickly?"

Zhang Wu also said: "Boss, you are in such a hurry to go back so early, it can't be that you are afraid of those officials, right?"

Zhao Liu also said: "What is there to be afraid of in this Fengzhou City. A few errand martial arts are very ordinary. With our little master here, I don't think it's a problem to borrow the county lord's yamen to live for a few days. ”

After hearing this, Song Xiaoxiao asked with a smile: "What kind of official is this county master? Let's go to live in his house, let him eat and drink, will he do it?"

Old man Hou hurriedly replied: "Little master, this is not to go. There are also a lot of talented people in the yamen, how can you be born if you meet a powerful person?"

Hou Er said: "None of you are right, I have inquired about it." This Fengzhou is also a big place, and the yamen is the prefect's yamen, which is one level higher than the county lord's. Usually, this yamen does some things for the people, but if the little lord really occupies this yamen, it will really be the way for heaven. ”

Song Xiaoxiao said excitedly: "Old man Hou, you stay and watch the luggage." Hou Er and Hou San hurriedly packed up, and we will go to the prefect's yamen now to do the way for the sky. ”

Old man Hou couldn't stop everyone, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Finally, he pulled Zhao Liu aside and whispered: "We don't know what trouble we will cause on this trip, wouldn't it hurt the little master." In my opinion, you should first go back and notify the Taoist who was with the little master, so that there is a way back. Zhao Liu listened to Old Man Hou's arrangement, and went back to watch it directly, without mentioning it.

Song Xiaoxiao and a group of more than a dozen people went directly to the yamen. One of the two gatekeepers had seen Song Xiaoxiao's power yesterday and recognized Song Xiaoxiao at a glance.

He was so frightened that his mouth trembled, and he rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom! ”

Another said: "Brother, you resist first, and I'll go and report to the master." Before he finished speaking, he ran towards the yamen.

The guards who stayed behind trembled with their legs, and they wanted to run but couldn't move.

Song Xiaoxiao came over and said directly: "Where is your prefect?"

The official trembled and said, "Old... Master, you are in the back office. ”

Song Xiaoxiao said: "You, lead the way." We have to borrow a house from the prefect. ”

The official was trembling again when he heard this. Don't dare to disobey Song Xiaoxiao's intentions. Directly take Song Xiaoxiao and his gang to the backyard.

The official who had gone in earlier to report had rushed all the way and shouted: "The old man is not good! ”

Governor Liu listened to the seven souls and lost the six souls. When the people in the yamen heard the shouts of the officials, they were so frightened that they packed up and rushed to run. Some things that were too late to pack were scattered all over the place. Governor Liu pulled his wife and ran to the back door. happened to bump into the housekeeper and led Liu Zhutou to wait for a group of officials to come in.

The housekeeper hurriedly supported Governor Liu and said, "Don't panic, sir, we still have a large team of people rushing over." ”

Governor Liu said: "Butler, hurry up and prepare a sedan chair." This demon girl is too fierce, let's hide first. ”

Liu Zhutou said: "Adults don't need to panic. The last time we couldn't catch the enchantress, it was all because we were too underestimated. This time we were well prepared and brought all the guys with us. ”

Governor Liu hurriedly responded: "Liu Zhutou, quickly, quickly take down the demon girl." ”

Song Xiaoxiao and his gang had just entered the backyard, only to see the sky full of red liquid spilled over. Song Xiaoxiao naturally dodged easily, and the rest of the people were drenched in black dog blood. Then a large net swept over the world. Song Xiaoxiao jumped to the edge of the backyard, and when he saw the big net cover, he turned around and pulled the official who laid the net and threw it out. She was already infinitely powerful, and she shook the big net with the trend, and all the officials turned their backs on their horses. Song Xiaoxiao rushed up with an arrow step, grabbed Liu Zhutou by the collar and lifted it up. walked in front of Governor Liu, and gently broke one of Liu Zhutou's arms like eating a crab. Governor Liu heard this sound, and his legs no longer obeyed. Song Xiaoxiao pinched Liu Zhu's head and shoulders again, and there was another smack. Governor Liu knelt down.

Governor Liu's people who wanted to run away were moved by this housekeeper and head catcher to arrest people. Now seeing Song Xiaoxiao so mighty, he doesn't even have the heart to escape. Immediately begged for mercy to Song Xiaoxiao: "Big... Heroes, heroes, aunts, and spare their lives. ”

Governor Liu then pointed to Liu Zhutou, who was still wailing on the ground, and the officials said, "This Liu Zhutou deserves it." And you are so vulgar and reckless, sir, I am really ashamed to be with you. Look at it, such a pretty, lovely, beautiful young lady has to make you wronged as a goblin. Do you tell me that there is still a royal law in this Fengzhou city? Is there still a heavenly principle? What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you quickly put away your things and make amends to the young lady. ”

Governor Liu's words were full of emotion. The officials are still scratching their heads, they just take the guys indiscriminately, and say good things and say good things.

Governor Liu looked at Song Xiaoxiao, who looked harmless to humans and animals. Seeing that the situation gradually calmed down, I had a better idea in my heart. He smiled again and said, "This young lady, I am the prefect of this Fengzhou City. It was all the fault of the people below who didn't know how to do things. If the girl has any needs and instructions, just say it, and we will do it for the young lady. ”

Song Xiaoxiao saw that he had frightened the prefect, and the next thing was to talk about the conditions. So he pulled his throat and said, "The prefect is cold underground, please get up quickly." Hou Er, let me just say that how can a parent official as reasonable as the prefect be a corrupt official? You have been arguing with me, but now you can see for yourself that you have almost wronged others. ”

Hou Er was a little out of his mind by Song Xiao's novel, and said anxiously: "Little master, don't be deceived by him." How many of the people in this state city have been put into his own pockets, and how many people have been wronged and bullied by this corrupt official. ”

Governor Liu said anxiously: "This strong man, there must be a misunderstanding in the middle. Since Liu took office, he has always been listening to the heavens and listening to the people's feelings, in order to benefit the people on this side. ”

Hou San said: "What you said is very good, who demolished our house some time ago and caused us to leave our hometown? Who is it who is the official in charge of the city who arbitrarily extorts and extorts us?"

Governor Liu pointed to the officials and said, "Okay! You are leading the court's servants one by one, and you are actually doing some things that hurt heaven and reason behind your back. Liu Zhutou, what the hell are you talking about?"

Liu Zhutou hurriedly knelt down and said in a panic: "Master, it's all because of the dereliction of duty of my subordinates." Some time ago, the imperial court issued an order to requisition the construction of the Temple of Marshal Tianpeng, but because we were really short of manpower, we had to hire a group of temporary officials. Who knew that these people actually carried the banner of the imperial court and did everything they could to oppress the people behind their backs. It's all dereliction of duty on the part of his subordinates, and he asks the master to punish him. After speaking, Liu Zhutou lay on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic.

Song Xiaoxiao smiled innocently and said, "Hou San, it seems that we have really wronged the prefect." However, I have a good idea to clear the prefect's innocence. ”

Hou San hurriedly said: "Little master, you won't really believe it!"

Governor Liu hurriedly answered: "This young lady is so well aware of righteousness, and the innocence of this mansion depends entirely on Miss." ”

Song Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "That's it, in order to prove the innocence of the prefect." Miss Ben decided to work with the prefect to handle the case at the entrance of the vegetable market. What are you all doing in a daze? Hurry up and inform the people of the city!"
