Summary: The old officials who have always been powerful in front of the common people do not hesitate to use slaves to practice themselves, just because they are afraid that their jobs will be lost.

Zhao Taishou rushed to the regimental training yamen, but it turned out to be for his son.

During the meal season, the old officials refused to step into the dining hall to death, from ancient times to the present, how many thousands of such people?

After reading this chapter, you can't help but sigh: people who are officials are sometimes really pitiful!

Zeng Guofan's sedan car and Peng Yulin's blue sedan chair slowly walked through the city gate and walked straight to the regimental training yamen. The county seat was not big, and it was when there were many people, and the people suddenly saw two or three hundred Hunan bravely rushing into the city, thinking that there was another military intelligence bandit police, and they couldn't help but avoid it one after another, and their eyes were full of panic and uneasiness. Since the Hong Xiuquan incident, the people of Li in the Huguang area have been enduring the torment of soldiers. As soon as a large group of soldiers appeared on the streets, their hearts beat faster and they were terrified.

Xiao Fu Siguan carried a loaded personal soldier, surrounded the cars and sedan chairs of Zeng Guofan and Peng Yulin, and finally passed through the downtown area. As soon as he saw the gate of the regimental training yamen, Liu Changyou, who was looking anxiously at the head of the door, walked up quickly with more than a dozen errand officers.

Before he arrived in front of the sedan chair, Liu Changyou shouted loudly: "Is it Lord Zeng?" ”

Xiao Fusi, who was riding in front of the horse to lead the way, heard this, and while dismounting, he replied angrily: "You still ask with a big face!" It's not Lord Zeng, who dares to let me follow! Unless he eats the bear's heart and leopard gall! It's been a long time since you entered the city, and you've been wandering around like this, you dare to treat me as a food! ”

The car and sedan car stopped, and Zeng Guofan and Peng Yulin were helped out of the car and sedan one after another. When Liu Changyou and the others saw it, they hurriedly performed the big gift, which was actually making amends to Zeng Guofan.

Zeng Guofan smiled and helped everyone up one by one, and said, "Zimo, I've worked hard for you!" You and Xueqin have made a great contribution to my Xiangyong! It has also made a great contribution to my Hunan! I can't forget you! ”

Zeng Guofan's few words directly called what Liu Changyou said "false award", but his heart was overjoyed.

When Zeng Guofan helped him to the back, he found that the person at the back was the errand officer who refused to take him to the shipyard, but also pointed in the direction of the shipyard by mistake, and deliberately played tricks on himself.

When the old official saw Zeng Guofan coming over with a smile, he blushed with shame, and he couldn't wait to hide from his head in the ground.

Zeng Guofan helped him with both hands and said: "It's not easy to be on an errand, it's not easy to be an errand!" You're in for a good time! The student was so tired that he ran away from the boss for a while! Rare! Rare! It's really rare! ”

When the old official saw Zeng Guofan's sarcastic words, he didn't dare to get up easily, so he lowered his head and said: "The slave has no eyes, and the slave should die!" "Lying on the ground, he refused to get up.

Zeng Guofan said with a smile: "Your brother is an official of the imperial court, how did he become a slave?" Hurry up. ”

Liu Changyou didn't know what to do, and said to the old official: "You person, let's get up quickly." After walking for so long, Zeng was already hungry! Master Zeng has to go in and take a breath. ”

When the old official heard this, he became more and more embarrassed, and even fell to the ground and began to cry with a whimper.

Liu Changyou had no choice but to say to Zeng Guofan: "My lord, let's go inside and rest." He's an old fool and he's useless. I didn't say anything about him, he was so wronged! ”

Zeng Guofan smiled, had no choice but to give up, and walked into the yamen with everyone.

When Peng Yulin passed by the old official, the old official suddenly bowed up, like a lion awakened from sleep, and pounced forward with both hands, just hugging one of Peng Yulin's legs.

Peng Yulin was caught off guard, thinking that the old man suddenly had madness, so he hurriedly pressed his head with his hand, and then asked, "Where are you uncomfortable?" Does it matter? Let's take a look at Langzhong. ”

The old official said with tears in his eyes: "Peng Xianggong save me!" Peng Xianggong save me! ”

Peng Yulin said: "How about you let go of my legs first?" You were fine just now, why did you turn your face and become like this? ”

The old official sent his hands away, kowtowed to Peng Yulin and said, "This old official's life is pinched in the palm of your Peng Xianggong's hand." If you don't help, this official is dead! Pity my nearly 100-year-old mother, who is about to run out of food and clothing! ”

Peng Yulin pulled him up and said, "How about you go inside with me first?" You keep crying like this, how will you run errands in the yamen in the future? ”

Only then did the old official stop crying, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and walked in after Peng Yulin.

As soon as Peng Yulin and the old official walked into the yamen, another blue tweed sedan chair rushed to the gate from a distance and fell.

The pro-soldiers guarding outside were surprised, but when they saw the sedan curtain lifted, they walked down from Zhao Danian, the prefect of Hengzhou.

When Zhao Danian saw Xiao Fusi, he immediately shouted, "Where is Lord Zeng?" Where is Zeng-sama? ”

Xiao Fusi smiled while giving a salute: "Lord Zhao is in a hurry like this now!" Lord Zeng has been shopping around with you for most of the day, and no one in the yamen is willing to come forward! ”

After Xiao Fusi finished speaking, he used his mouth to nude into the gate: "With Lord Liu and Peng Xianggong, go inside to rest." ”

Zhao Danian didn't have time to be polite with Xiao Fusi, so he raised his leg and broke inside; A big man who came with Zhao Danian, carrying a single knife diagonally, with a lofty aura between his eyebrows, followed closely behind Zhao Danian.

Xiao Fusi said with a smile: "Lord Taishou is so good, he actually found a chivalrous man to be a long-term follower!" ”

Zhao Danian's figure disappeared into the yamen, and another blue sedan chair fell outside the gate like an arrow.

Xiao Fusi smiled: "I don't know which way the fairy came to buy it!" ”

As soon as Xiao Fusi's voice fell, Wang Rui, the magistrate of Hengyang, stepped off the sedan chair wearing an official uniform.

Xiao Fusi took a step forward and saluted: "Isn't this the king's parents?" Do you want to have a lawsuit with Peng Xianggong again? ”

Wang Rui took Xiao Fusi's hand and said with a smile: "This county has a temper with people like you. Suddenly, he lowered his voice and said, "In front of Lord Zeng, can you make fun of me!" The county will go to say goodbye to Lord Zeng first, and then invite you to eat and drink when you go back. ”

Xiao Fusi smiled: "I can't be fooled by you." Eat your old wine, and make the silver always me, and it is not worth it. You'd better go and meet the adults. Adults have praised you all the way. ”

Wang Rui walked in with a smile.

Looking at Wang Rui's back, Xiao Fusi said to Li Chendian: "He is really a rare good official in Hunan!" It's just poor. ”

Li Chendian said: "How can there be no poor good officials? ”

As soon as Zeng Guofan and Peng Yulin walked into the yamen, Liu Changyou first introduced Zeng Guofan and his entourage into the official hall and sat down, and some officials quickly came up with tea. After the salute again, Liu Changyou went to arrange the meal.

Zeng Guofan was just about to speak to Liu Changyou, but Zhao Danian had already strode in.

As soon as he saw Zhao Danian rushing in, Zeng Guofan thought that something had happened, and hurriedly stood up, before he could speak, Zhao Danian had already knelt down at Zeng Guofan's feet, and said: "The lower official is late to pick up the sedan chair, I hope your lord will forgive you!" If you want to come to Hengzhou, you should always send a document first! ”

The people in the official hall, when they saw the prefect like this, all got up one after another, waiting to greet Zhao Danian.

Zeng Guofan helped Zhao Danian up and said: "Zhao Taishou, the Issuance and Examination Bureau is building ships and practicing courage in Hengzhou, which has caused you a lot of trouble. Waiting for the water to be practiced is also your boss's great achievement! ”

Zhao Danian stood up and lowered his hand and replied, "Where do you speak?" The adults practice courage in Hengzhou to ensure the safety of the people in Hengzhou. It's too late for the lower officials to be grateful, so why talk about the word trouble! But if there is anything useful for the place, the adults just talk about it!! However, when Xia Guan came this time, he really had something to ask for an adult! ”

The people in the hall all came over to greet Zhao Danian at this time.

Zhao Danian returned the gift one by one.

Zeng Guofan invited Zhao Danian to take a seat, and motioned for the others to sit down. An errand official quickly put a bowl of tea for Zhao Danian.

Zeng Guofan smiled: "Zhao Taishou, you are the master, I am the guest." If you have anything to say, just say it, and you're welcome. ”

Zhao Danian said: "My lord, there is a dog in the lower official, he doesn't like to read since he was a child, and he specializes in dancing guns and sticks, and now he is growing into twenty-seven or eight." has been married and had children for many years, but he still doesn't do his job, and he mixes with some cats and dogs all day long. The adult came to Hengzhou to recruit Shui Yong with Peng Leader, but he was somehow known by the dogs, so he pestered the lower officials several times to come to the camp to talk about favors, and wanted to participate in Shui Yong to kill Changmao. Xia Guan saw that the battalion was practicing day and night on the river, and he tried to disturb him several times, but he was not satisfied. It just so happened that the adults came to Hengzhou to inspect the defense, and the lower officials showed this old face and asked the dog for a favor. ”

Zhao Danian was about to get up and kneel down again after speaking, Zeng Guofan grabbed him and asked, "Did you bring the son?" ”

Zhao Danian said: "Just wait outside the door." ”

Zeng Guofan said: "Spread Zhao Gongzi to come in!" I have a few words to ask him! ”

The son who came with Zhao Danian strode in, and without waiting for Zhao Danian to speak, he knelt down in front of Zeng Guofan, and said, "Late birth to the adults." ”

Zeng Guofan saw that Zhao Gongzi was born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he was born tomorrow's military material, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said: "Zhao Gongzi, you can stand up and talk back!" ”

Zhao Gongzi got up, stood in front of the hall with his hands down, and said, "Late birth Lord Xie lifts." ”

Zeng Guofan asked slowly: "Zhao Gongzi, do you know what you have to do in the army?" ”

Zhao Gongzi said: "Back to the words of adults, I thought that I should not be afraid of death in the army!" Those who are afraid of death must not join the army! ”

Zeng Guofan asked: "Zhao Gongzi, do you know what conditions you need to be my Xiangyong's sentinel?" ”

Zhao Gongzi thought for a while, and replied: "Back to the adult's words, he has never been a sentry commander in his later life, but he thinks that whether it is a battalion officer or a sentry commander, he must not deduct the reward of his brothers, and this is a good official." This is also what adults often say, don't spare your life, don't love money! ”

Peng Yulin knew that Zeng Guofan had the intention of putting this Zhao Gongzi as a sentry, so he glanced at Zeng Guofan.

Zeng Guofan nodded and said to Peng Yulin: "Xueqin, you come to talk to Zhao Gongzi." ”

Zeng Guofan intended to sell this favor to Peng Yulin.

Peng Yulin said: "Zhao Gongzi, you now go to the back hall to find a copywriter and register an account, the camp has decided to hire you exceptionally, and is ready to promote you as the sentry commander." Have you ever heard? ”

Zhao Gongzi was stunned, and then knelt on the ground with a thud and said, "Thank you for your humble duties, Lord Battalion Officer!" The humble position must live up to the expectations of your old man and Lord Zeng, take the lead bravely, and do not disgrace Xiangyong! ”

Peng Yulin got up and helped Zhao Gongzi up and said, "Zhao Gongzi, you don't have to be polite. You go to register first. ”

Zhao Gongzi got up and saluted everyone in the hall one by one, then turned around and walked out of the hall happily and ran to the back hall.

Zhao Danian said happily: "I didn't expect that the regimental camp would lift the dog so much!" Lord Zeng, you are the one who trained the yamen with the regiment, and now you will go to the prefect's yamen. Xiaguan asked the kitchen to stir-fry a few side dishes, how about giving you an old pick-up? (End of chapter)
