Volume 1 Chapter 122 Knocking the bone and sucking the marrow

Hearing the name of the former county lord, the officials of the county government immediately shrank back.

Li Xiaozi was visibly frozen in front of the door, at a loss.

Xu He said: "My teacher obviously said in the notice that those who died in the war will receive a pension of eight taels, why is there only two taels in this Zhang family, and said, where is the rest of the money?" Is it ink by you? ”

When Li Xiaozi heard this, the expression on his face kept changing.

Xu He continued: "This was my teacher's compassion for the heroes who died in the battle for Hailing City, and the compensation was specially raised, but I didn't expect a good governance, but in the end it was defeated in the hands of the people and thieves, you try it today, if you don't give these eight taels to the Zhang family, will our neighbors let you out of Shisheng Street!" ”

After saying that, he turned to the people and said loudly, "Neighbors, you say, can they get out of this street?" ”

Everyone thought of Li Xiaozi's arrogance just now, and thought of the scene where Zhang Wang's family was struggling to live with his children, and their eyes were all red.

Xu He continued: "If we let them go today, and your wives and children become bullied like Zhang Wang's in the future, are you willing? ”

"No!"

"I don't want to!"

"Even if Lao Tzu is dead, he will take these people away as a ghost!"

"Made, bullying our people is so arrogant, but the thieves came and became shrunken turtles one by one!"

"Yes, Gongzi Xu is right, today is not his Zhang family's business, but the business of all the people in Hailing City!"

The onlookers were all excited, clenching their fists tightly, and looking at Li Xiaozi as if they were looking at the enemy who killed his father.

On weekdays, Li Xiaozi relied on the support of the third-in-command of the county government behind him, Ma Chief, and was used to showing off his power among the people.

In his mind, these people are all quails, and they don't move when they are scared, even if they hate him afterwards, they dare to pop out a fart?

But today......

Today was different, and everyone looked at them as if they were going to eat them.

"You guys, what do you want to do?" Seeing this, Li Xiaozi was frightened and retreated.

Xu He said: "What are you doing?" We made it very clear, leave the money and fuck off! ”

Li Xiaozi almost collapsed when he heard this, he came out this time, and he only brought four taels of silver from the yamen, two of which he was going to take out and share with the brothers, and finally left two taels for Zhang Wang's family.

But Xu He told him to drop the eight taels and get out, he wanted to get out, but he didn't have so much money on him.

Seeing him hesitate, everyone forced two steps forward with red eyes.

Li Xiaozi was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly said: "Fellow villagers, all neighbors, the money given to me by the yamen is less than eight taels!" I...... I can't ...... either."

Xu He said: "Then you go to the yamen to ask for eight taels of silver, otherwise you won't be able to leave today!" ”

"Yes!" The neighbors shouted in unison: "If you don't give Zhang Wang's bereavement pension, you won't be able to leave today." ”

Seeing that everyone was so united, Li Xiaozi was completely panicked this time, and he hurriedly summoned a thin man to bow his head and whisper a few words.

The thin man got the letter, looked cautiously at the crowd, and after squeezing out of the crowd tremblingly, he ran away.

The two sides were at a stalemate for about a stick of incense, and suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves of "clucking" and "clucking" from the bluestone slab at the corner of the street.

A guy in a blue official uniform came on horseback, and the thin man had just led the horse with the reins in front of his head.

Xu He fixed his eyes and saw who it was if it wasn't the horse owner.

When the owner of the horse Bo Xing approached, he turned over and dismounted in full view of everyone, and when he saw Xu He, he smiled and said: "Master Xu, I heard that your house has won the case, congratulations!" ”

The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Xu He did not be tough, but bowed and said: "The horse owner is thin!" ”

Xu He greeted him, but his expression was cold, and Master Ma saw him saluting and not bowing, obviously not putting himself in the eyes of the third county government, and he couldn't help but be annoyed, and his face was cold.

I saw him pretend to walk up to everyone and ask, "What's the matter?" ”

Seeing that the main backbone was coming, Li Xiaozi hurriedly ran out of the courtyard, pushing the onlookers away as he ran, and regained the arrogance he had just had.

"Third master, I followed the will of the county government and issued a bereavement pension to the families who died in the war a few days ago, but who knew that these people stopped me and didn't let me go!"

A wicked man sued first, and all the neighbors were angry.

But for thousands of years, the fear of officials buried in their bones has attacked, and no one dares to speak out, so they can only stare at Li Xiaozi hatefully and not speak.

Ma Mingqiu glanced around, whipped Li Xiaozi in front of Xu He, and scolded: "Bastards, it must be you guys who are greedy for mercy!" ”

Li Xiaozi was caught off guard and was whipped, and immediately hugged his head and shouted.

Who knew that Ma Mingqiu still didn't let him go, and he scolded him with a whip: "Say, how much silver did you embezzle?" ”

Li Xiaozi cried and shouted to his mother: "The county government gave four taels, and I took two taels!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar, this Li dwarf was really greedy for the Zhang family's pension silver.

Ma Mingqiu pretended to say, "Why don't you go and give four taels of silver to others?" Even the money of the dead, hum! ”

"Wait!"

Just as they were acting, Xu He looked at Ma Mingqiu indifferently and said: "Master Ma, the notice posted by my teacher before leaving office is written on eight taels of silver, even if it is an old example, the yamen should give each family six taels, why only give this family four taels today?" ”

Ma Mingqiu thought that he had just given face to this former county lord and student, but who knew that this guy still didn't know what to do, and he was pressing step by step.

Thinking about the incident of [Xiaohu Chun] returning a few days ago, he had already inquired that the silver in the post station was earned by Huibin Lou through this Xu He and Lao Hu's way.

Xiaohu Chun promised him forty taels of benefits a year, but who knew that he was disturbed by this kid.

It was Li Zhijie who was in office before, and he didn't dare to do anything with this kid.

But now that Li Zhijie is gone, although he went to the mansion to make a general judgment, he is also a second official after all, what can he do with himself?

As soon as he thought of this, new and old hatreds poured out in Ma Mingqiu's heart, and he shouted at Xu He with a dark face: "The county spent a lot of money because of the bandits disturbing the city this time, and Lord Li was indeed kind at that time, but he was short of money in his heart, so he only approved the people who died in the war, and each household received a pension of four taels!" If you don't know the situation, don't stop the yamen from doing things! ”

After that, he glanced coldly at Xu He, who didn't know what to do.

Xu He was not afraid, and sneered: "Then why did I hear that some people gave out six taels?" ”

After Li County's order left, Bo, the horse owner in charge of military affairs, naturally undertook the matter of distributing pensions to those who died in the war a while ago.

This screening is also exquisite, people with a bit of background or a relationship with the yamen, naturally six taels!

With a deep background, for example, Xu He's clansmen also died, and this kind of nature is paid in full!

And a small family like the Zhang family, which has nothing to do with it, is only four taels.

This time back and forth, he suddenly entered the account with a few hundred taels.

Now Xu He is entangled with him about this account......

Cutting off people's money is like killing their parents, he is a small and nine-grade master, he doesn't want to think about the future, isn't it just to be an official for thousands of miles?

Since you Xu He cut off my financial route, then I don't have to get used to you.

Thinking of this, Ma Zhu Bo sneered: "Master Xu, if I remember correctly, you are now just a child, and it has been rumored that you children are lawless, known as the [Tong Heavenly King], and the reputation of causing trouble has long been spread to the court. ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, covering the cruel color that almost overflowed: "Come on, take Xu Gongzi to the county office, and beat him with twenty canes first!" ”

Li Xiaozi, who was still holding his head and gasping for air just now, suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, only to see him smile and wave his hand, and a few dog-legged white servants surrounded him.

He glanced at everyone and scolded, "Cheap embryos, do you see? Against the Yamen, against our Lord Ma, no matter who you are, this is the end! ”

When the neighbors heard this, they were all frightened and silent; There are indignant people, although there is a look of resentment in their eyes, but the other party has obviously accumulated power for a long time, and can only hide anger in their hearts.

Just as the doglegs cut Xu He's hands back, a yellow-haired boy rushed out of the door, and he rushed to Xu He crying, and stepped forward with both hands to pull away the arms of those white servants.

Crying while pulling: "You are all bad people, you are all bad people, you are not allowed to bully good people!" ”

Seeing this, Li Xiaozi kicked the child to the ground, smacked and scolded: "Dog, get out of the way, don't delay grandpa's errands!" ”

But the boy didn't give up, clutching his kicked chest and struggling to get up, still going to pick the arms of the white servants.

Xu He's eyes were about to crack and scolded: "You are still not human, he is still a child!" ”

Ma Mingqiu raised his left hand, touched the nail of his left hand with his right hand, and said lightly: "A child can obstruct the yamen's errands?" ”

At this time, the woman in the door saw that her son was beaten, and immediately rushed out like crazy, and grabbed Li Xiaozi and scratched it.

Li Xiaozi was furious, took a stick from his hand and wanted to beckon.

At this moment, suddenly, the sound of gongs and drums came from the street corner.

Everyone turned their heads curiously.

I saw that the first thing that appeared in front of everyone was a dozen or so honor guards carrying the honor guard of the Qincha, followed by soldiers wearing bright armor and holding bright spears to open the way.

Ma Mingqiu and the rest of the people were all stupid.
