Chapter 293: Sima Shi had a big bag bulging out of his head
Zhang He and the others were surprised, followed behind them, and came to the guest house that had been prepared for a long time, set up a banquet, and washed the dust for them.
At the banquet, Sima Shi respectfully let Zhang Xuan to the top, and he sat with him, and said to a cadre: "Lord Zhang, as a general of carefree, is a first-class minister, and I am only a second-rank magistrate, but in fact, Lord Zhang's subordinate. Although I am the governor of the party in charge, as long as Master Zhang is here, then everything must be decided by him! ”
Zhang Xuan glared at him and said, "What are you doing so fakely?" I'm here, although it's related to official business, most of it is for private affairs, and I don't interfere in all the affairs here, you can handle it. ”
"Oh?" When Zhang He heard this, he said, "My lord came here to do private business, could it be that there are any relatives and friends?" ”
"Well, so to speak!" Zhang Xuan responded, "You may know that there is a famous troupe here, and the one who sings the female role is named Ye Ling, who is my sister-in-law. Some time ago, I invited them to Zhangjia Village to sing operas, and today I sent them back, by the way, to inspect your official business, but I didn't expect to sing a play of water rushing to the Dragon King Temple on the way. ”
These words blinded Sima Shi, Zhang He and others.
The city lord Siping died violently, and the city officials collected all the suspicious clues, focusing on matters related to Ye Ling and reporting them to the Lu Mansion, which was all carried out under the auspices of Zhang He. And the reason why Sima Shi came to Kuancheng in person was also because he felt that Siping's death was strange, and planned to follow those suspicious clues to investigate the cause of Siping's death, and the person he focused on was also Ye Ling.
At this moment, I heard Zhang Xuan say that Ye Ling is his sister-in-law, how can I check this? If Ye Ling is really related to Siping's death, then this case may be investigated and investigated by Zhang Xuan.
Isn't it a joke to investigate a carefree general and a horse master for the sake of a city lord who died inexplicably? Who has that guts?
The most important thing is that this horse master is not an ordinary horse master, but a horse master who has the ability to destroy the world, and he can kill whoever he wants, and he can be ruthless and ruthless. Let's ask, what bold guy would dare to openly oppose such a person?
Those present asked themselves, and none of them dared to dare. Rao is Sima Shi, who is the governor, and he definitely does not have the guts.
After being stunned for a while, Sima Shi smiled awkwardly and said, "No wonder! Master Zhang sent the troupe back, if we don't coincidentally stage such a play when we enter the city, it won't be a complete end, haha! ”
"I don't care much about whether I stop it or not, what I care about is the personal safety of Ye Ling, that is, my righteous sister." Zhang Xuan responded with a cold face, "That Siping, who died violently, because he coveted Ye Ling's beauty, actually fabricated a series of trumped-up charges against her and put him in prison, which is really hateful!" When I came back this time, I originally wanted to check his official reputation, and to find out what other evil deeds he had committed in disregard for human life and the flesh of the people, and since you are here, I will trouble you to check it for me. If the evil deeds are heinous, even if you die, you might as well dig up the corpse from the grave and whip the corpse! ”
After saying this, Sima Shi, Zhang He and others were even more difficult to say anything. As everyone knows, officialdom has always been protected by officials and officials, if there is no Zhang Xuan to stir up harmony, even if Siping did a lot of evil during his lifetime, he will not have any notoriety after death, and the government may force him to give him some good reputation. But since Zhang Xuan has such a bad evaluation of Siping, then the government has to consider Zhang Xuan's feelings, at least it can't give Siping any good name.
As a result, Sima Shi immediately changed his mind and decided not to investigate the cause of Siping's death, but to investigate Siping's faults instead, and to evaluate Siping's merits and demerits.
After the banquet, Sima Shi Weifu came to the room where Zhang Xuan lived, but found that Zhang Xuan was not in the room, so he went outside to look for it.
looked around and found that Zhang Xuan was constantly beating a big tree in a no-man's corner, and there was a slim woman beside him.
But I heard the woman say: "Zhang Xuan, you said that this tree may bleed or moan, is it true?" ”
Sima Shi could hear that this seemed to be Baguio's voice, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Seventh sister, are you here too?" ”
Baguio turned around and said happily, "Big brother, are you here too?" ”
Sima Shi smiled: "I didn't expect our brothers and sisters to meet here!" Seventh sister, I couldn't attend the wedding when you got married, and I apologize for holding a make-up banquet for you here, how about it? ”
"Big brother, you're too polite!" Baguio responded, "However, I can't be the master of this matter, you have to ask Zhang Xuan." ”
When Sima Shi heard this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said in his heart: Hmph, what kind of spell did Zhang Xuan, this damn guy, cast to make a dignified princess obey? Lao Tzu is a dignified royal child, and the fucking mother-in-law at home often throws her face, people are really angry compared to people!
After thinking about it for a while, seeing that Zhang Xuan ignored him and only cared about beating the big tree, Sima Shi said with a smile: "Brother-in-law is playing games and having fun, I still won't bother him." ”
Baguio smiled: "Big brother, you misunderstood, he is not playing a game, but killing demons." ”
"Huh!" Sima Shi said, "Seventh sister, you have always been serious, but now you have learned to joke from time to time. I saw that my brother-in-law was obviously playing a game, or practicing some kind of kung fu such as iron sand palms, how could it be demon slayer? Although I have never seen a demon, I also know that a demon is not a tree, and I will not hide in a tree and obediently wait for others to destroy it. If I might be confused in other things, I don't deny it, but I won't be confused in this matter anyway! ”
At this time, Zhang Xuan spoke.
"Boss, where did you get this mysterious confidence from?" Zhang Xuan said while beating the big tree, "The demon is not out of reach, but close at hand, otherwise how did the big bag on your head come from?" ”
Zhang Xuan saw the big bag bulging on Sima Shi's head from the moment he took off his helmet, and expected that the reason why Sima Shi was wearing a helmet was to cover up his ugliness. And there was a hidden demon hidden in that big bag, Sima Shi didn't know it, but Zhang Xuan could see it.
Baguio also saw the big bag on Sima Shi's head, but out of respect for his brother, although he felt strange in his heart, he didn't ask questions.
Sima Shi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Zhang Xuan say this.
He had a big bag bulging up on his head for no reason, and at first he was scared enough, thinking that he was suffering from some serious disease, so he hurriedly asked the local famous doctors to diagnose and treat him.
Sima Shi was very distressed by this, and his wife often made fun of him, which made him more and more anxious. Siping, the lord of Kuancheng, died violently for no reason, and he, who was the governor, did not need to come forward to deal with the matter in person, but in order to go out to relax, he came with a few retinues.
The entourage was angry at every turn because of him during this time, for fear of being beaten and scolded if he accidentally did something wrong, so they were extra careful in front of him, following him and currying favor with him without principles and bottom lines in everything, and taking not letting him get angry as the highest principle. When he met Zhang Xuan outside the city, if he hadn't had such thoughts, his entourage might not have been so rude.
Sima Shi, who had been anxious for a long time for the inexplicable bulging big bag on his head, heard Zhang Xuan say that his big bag was related to demons at this moment, he couldn't believe it, but he didn't dare not believe it, and his mind turned very quickly for a while.
Monsters grow in human bodies, such a thing sounds ridiculous, and so far, he has not felt any signs of monster activity in the large bag on his head. The big bag was like an ordinary sarcoma, just ugly, affecting the view, but it didn't cause him substantial pain.
Because of this, he didn't quite believe that there was a demon in the big bag on his head.
