Chapter 249: Collective Crushing

Six days later, Wu Lixin and a group of squires from Hailing County came to Tianchang County.

As soon as they met, Wu Lixin enthusiastically pulled Cui Pu to greet him. Then, he smiled and said: "I heard that a few Xiaolangjun in our county came to play, and accidentally offended Cui Xianzun, and now they are directly put in prison?"

"Wu Xianzun, you have used the word 'offended' really well, didn't they just offend this county? First they tried to molest the county's wife, and then they teamed up to beat the county, and their behavior was extremely bad. Look at it, there are still injuries on his body in this county!" Cui Pu said, lifting his sleeve to show them the little bruise the size of a fingernail on his arm.

The corners of Wu Lixin's mouth twitched, and he secretly scolded Cui Pu in his heart for not knowing what to do.

Obviously, he had lowered his posture at the beginning, and he had already taken the initiative to greet him, this guy should also take a step back and save some face for himself if he has a little brain. Unexpectedly, he ignored his overtures at all, and began to accuse them when he came up!

Didn't he lose face in front of these squires?

"Cui Xianzun—" He still wanted to say something, but a squire who was fifty years old couldn't wait, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute Cui Pu, "Cui Xianzun, this matter is indeed Xiao'er's fault." This time, we also brought some medicinal herbs and pressure gifts to apologize to you and your wife. The child is stubborn, does not understand the rules, and if you make a mistake, you can help us punish him, and we are grateful. It's just that although they are naughty, their nature is not bad, so please spare their lives no matter what. ”

Several other squires also nodded in agreement.

Wu Lixin was so angry that he wanted to go crazy.

What did these old men mean? Didn't he tell them again and again on the way here, don't talk after they come, and he will help them get their son back safe and sound? But now, after he has only said a few words, they have preemptively shown weakness! Isn't this his own face sticking out to someone and beating someone?

It doesn't matter if they don't have a face for themselves, but now they are a group, representing the face of Hailing County!

He glared at this group of people angrily, but the squires didn't look at him at all, only staring at Cui Pu with an apologetic look.

Wu Lixin almost vomited blood.

Seeing this, Cui Pu shook his head and sighed in his heart--This Wu Lixin is really a little expert in death! These squires are much more shrewd and obedient than those in Tianchang County! If he hadn't tried his best to coexist peacefully with them from the beginning, these people would have some respect for him. But alas, he missed the opportunity in the first place, and now in the eyes of these people, he is just a joke.

A dignified county order, he is also powerful to do it for him like this.

However, since these people don't deal with Wu Lixin, they are naturally his allies.

Cui Pu smiled slightly: "At that time, there were indeed some misunderstandings. They beat the county, and the people of the county also avenged the county on the spot, and these two things can be offset. Just ......"

The point is just after 'just'!

"Just what?" asked the squires.

"It's just that they shouldn't think about the lady of this county. That's why the county will do it to them. ”

Burst!

Wu Lixin laughed unceremoniously: "Cui Xianzun, your wife should be the one I have seen before, right?

Cui Pu gave him a cold look, then turned his head away.

Wu Lixin didn't let him go: "However, it is said that the eighteenth year of the women's university has changed, and the water and soil in Yangzhou have raised people, you have been here for more than a year, maybe she has really changed a lot." Why don't you invite her out for us to see, so that everyone can understand why you and those little Langjun are fighting because of her?"

He believed in his heart that Cui Pu was deliberately using Mu Jiaojiao as a shield, and he had to find a reason for that incident.

"My lady, not a prostitute who shows her face outside!" Cui Pu shouted dishappily.

Wu Lixin snorted - Speaking of which, it doesn't mean that people can't take it, so they deliberately shirk it?

When the squires heard this, they hurriedly saluted Cui Pu again: "The child is stubborn, I didn't expect to collide with the county lady this time! That is indeed their fault, and I dare not shirk for them again." Now that you have caught them, we will punish them as they should be, and we will not interfere!

"Hey, look at what you guys said, it's not that serious. Cui Pu smiled and waved his hand, "At that time, they were staring at me all the time, and the lady of this county only regarded them as disciples from elsewhere, and they were disgusted, so this county would teach them a lesson." As a result, I later learned their identities, and everyone was also elegant, so naturally they couldn't do anything vulgar, so Mrs. forgave them a long time ago. Now they have spent a few more days in prison, and the sin is over. Today, you have come to the door in person to admit your mistakes, and this sincerity has been felt by the county, so you will bring people back today!"

And so it was?

Wu Lixin didn't believe it.

These squires had also inquired about Cui Pu's temperament before they came, and knew that he was a man who would be revenged. So this time to save their son, they have already made all kinds of preparations. As a result, who knows, now with such a few words, he will actually let go?

Something is wrong!

The squires hurriedly waved their hands: "Then how can we do it? They have made a big mistake and should have been punished, this is absolutely impossible to count! The Son of Heaven has broken the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention the stubborn children of my family? No matter how bad it is, you should let them live in prison for a few more days and beat them a few times!"

Hearing this, Wu Lixin's eyes were about to pop out of his sockets—it was the first time he had seen someone crying and shouting begging the county magistrate to beat his son's board! Moreover, he begged the county magistrate of another county. But in front of him, why aren't these people so doggy?

Why don't the squires drip blood in their hearts?

It's just that they have already figured out Cui Pu's temperament. If he lets you go now, it means that he must still have a backup move. That's what makes people unguardable. Rather than this, they might as well let him punish him in one breath, as long as he is angry, then his son and their family are really safe!

Ready-made examples stand in front of them - Wu Lixin, they don't dare to be careless.

Cui Pu said a few more words, but the attitude of the squires became more and more resolute. In the end, Cui Pu had to 'reluctantly' and said: "Since you insist on killing your relatives in righteousness, then the county has no choice but to enforce the law impartially." Well, let them stay in prison for another night, and tomorrow they will be dragged out and beaten in public with twenty boards, what do you think?"

"Everything is up to the county master!" the squires breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.

A mouthful of old blood had already gushed into his throat, and Wu Lixin really wanted to die.

Why did he feel so desperate? These people were obviously his people, he had been in Hailing County for more than a year, and he got along with them quite well, and he thought that he was now the county magistrate who could do it. The results are now ...... Why did these people give him a feeling that Cui Pu was the county master they respected, but he was just a dispensable ornament?

This feeling is so embarrassing!

He gritted his teeth secretly: "Sixth Brother Cui, I think those twenty boards will be spared! Everyone is a figure with a head and a face, and I see that they have suffered enough in prison these days, so why should everyone do things too much? Leave a line in everything, so that we can meet in the future!"

"Hey, isn't it true that after beating these twenty boards, you won't pay attention to this county in the future?" Cui Pu hurriedly looked at the squires.

The squires hurriedly shook their heads desperately, and poured out good words one by one. Between the words, the twenty boards are extremely important, and it seems that only he beat them, and that is to give them face. If they don't fight, they will be the first ones to be a father who will not accept it!

Every word these people said, it was like a loud slap in the face of Wu Lixin. By now, his face was swollen.

Why? Why!

Wu Lixin shouted in his heart. Why did these people compliment their surname Cui like this when they first met, but they had never been treated like this!

Obviously, he is the county master of their eight classics, okay?

He subconsciously wanted to help himself get back a little more face. It's just that when the words came to his mouth, he still swallowed them again-he said again, he was afraid that Cui Pu would refuse it again, and then attract this group of people to slap himself in the face, right? Let his people slap his face one after another, this sense of humiliation is simply bursting, he is about to explode!

And this kind of thing can only be done by the person surnamed Cui in front of him.

After more than a year of county ordering, he didn't learn anything else, and the edges and corners of his temperament were still slightly smoothed.

So now, he stopped in time and reluctantly raised a smile: "Since everyone thinks so, let's do it! Seeing that you are all so law-abiding, this county is also deeply grateful." With people like you governing Hailing County together with this county, why worry that our Hailing County will not continue to develop and grow?"

When Cui Pu heard this, he snorted generously.

He turned his head and ordered, "Go and invite all the squires who are now in the county." Tonight, this county wants to have a banquet for the county honors of Hailing County, as well as the squires of Hailing County and our Tianchang County. ”

The squires of Hailing County all bowed their heads suddenly.

No way, shame!

Originally, Hailing County was one of the most famous places in Yangzhou City, and they all had light on their faces when they went out one by one. But now, Tianchang County, which has been impoverished for hundreds of years, has suddenly risen to become a good place famous throughout the country, and the squires here still have official positions on their bodies!

Even if they were richer than the squires of Tianchang County, so what? One official position was enough to make them bow their heads and bend down.

People have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away. Prefectural orders are more prefectural than prefectural ordinances...... They really want to throw Wu Lixin into the Yellow Sea now!

If it was Cui Pu who came to Hailing County to be the county magistrate, then presumably they should be the squires who are now following Cui Pu and arrogantly looking down on the entire Yangzhou City, right?

Therefore, they are even more disgusted with Wu Lixin. A person's incompetence is nothing, but he is incompetent, but he still has to be capable, and he drags others into the water in all kinds of random tosses, that is his fault!

Sensing everyone's disgusted eyes, Wu Lixin's stomach began to bloat again. He's really ...... Why did he end up with Cui Pu, a sworn enemy? I knew that many things would happen later, and he should have beaten this guy to death in Furong's house!

At this time, I heard Cui Pu say loudly: "It's rare for you to come to Tianchang County once, and we don't have anything to entertain you here." In this way, let's make a sweet potato feast in the kitchen tonight, so that you can feast on it!"

Hearing him bite the word 'sweet potato' heavily, these people were stunned, and their faces were a little unnatural.

Wu Lixin also turned around suddenly, and saw Cui Pu grinning at him, and the surface of his white teeth immediately reflected a palpitating chill.
