Chapter 63: Military Order
Yanggu County Ya, Inner Hall, Mao Shi.
Zhixian stretched his waist and said softly: "I slept so well this night, I haven't tried it so sweet for a long time." ”
He stretched out his hand to pick the heart of the candle lightly, the room was lit up, and when he lifted the quilt, the pink copper body of his wife came into view, and he couldn't help but rejoice: "Haha, the day before yesterday, the imperial doctor Gao also said that my kidney water was insufficient and I needed to recuperate, but I was exhausted from serving Yu Linglong yesterday, and I was able to go to Yunyu with my wife last night, where did it come from, but my memory is really bad, when did I arouse my interest, but I have no impression." ”
Zhixian smiled and admired Mrs. Lady's body, although Mrs. is over thirty, but her skin is firm and pink, and she is indeed not inferior to a girl, but she is dignified by nature, and she is not coquettish with a woman outside, so she is less close.
At this time, because he got up in the morning, he was slightly enthusiastic, and he felt a little guilty about his wife, mainly because he had forgotten what happened last night, so why not take advantage of the time to make sure again, he has not tasted his wife for a long time.
He greedily stroked his wife's body, and kissed her softly on the face, and Mrs. felt a warm ambiguity, like a long rain and nectar, and cried with joy, and responded very warmly, his eyes were blurred, and he saw that Zhixian was wearing his own dirty clothes, and she couldn't help but be angry when she read the sage book since she was a child, and pushed Zhixian away, and said coldly:
"My husband must have been fascinated by the women outside, and I learned such a despicable bad habit, I am the daughter of a legitimate family, and I don't understand your style. ”
The fire in the county was like pouring out ice water, and he looked at his wife's eyes very puzzled, and couldn't help but be shocked: "Madam, how can I ..... How to wear your ......"
"Then I have to ask ......" Mrs. was about to say sarcastically, when she suddenly exclaimed: "Husband, when you went to bed last night, your beard was still there, why did you shave it off at this moment?"
As soon as the magistrate touched his chin, he was also so panicked that he had no master, and muttered in a low voice: "It is rumored that there are some ghosts shaving their heads, is it .....?"
"Husband, look!"
Before he could react, Mrs. suddenly hugged him in shock, pointed to the wall, he looked at the wall, trembling in panic, only to see ten big characters written on the wall: "Leopard Head Mountain Sai Tai Sui, please come to visit"!
"Ah-----" Zhixian's panic all turned into anger, and the two rows of teeth gritted "gurgling", and he said fiercely: "Bold dog thief, dare to insult this official to such a world, if you don't destroy you, how can you be a human being!"
Besides, Wu Song, when he arrived at the county office, joked with Wang Erniu and others casually, and waited for the county to be promoted.
When it was approaching, Wang Erniu stood next to the public case, Wu Song stood in the first place, "Dong Dong Dong", suddenly the big drum outside the door was beaten, Wang Erniu and Wu Song hurriedly walked out.
I saw a thin and short man, beating a big drum outside, Wang Erniu shouted: "Okay, okay, I heard it, if you have something, let's talk here first." ”
The so-called "before the official, first hit fifty", is two meanings, one is when the prisoner is tried, first beat and then say, to dispel his arrogance, so as to recruit from the truth, the second is now Wang Erniu's practice, all the people who come to complain, are outside the county government to beat the drum first, then Wang Erniu came out to ask, if it is a high-ranking official and noble, he will intimidate, persuade him to stop, if it is an ordinary case, easy to try, please give some hard money first, he has to go in to report, if it is a trivial matter, it is also immediately sent away.
Wang Erniu looked at the person who came, not like the rich, his tone was very indifferent, the person who came was Su Quan, he was instructed by Wu Song to complain, I saw him on his face, and cried: "The villain is the leopard head mountain for the rich man to herd sheep, yesterday in the sheep, to the thieves on the mountain robbed the sheep, the owner wants the villain to compensate, how can the villain have the ability, so come to sue, please know the county minister to uphold justice, send the arrester to catch the thief, snatch the sheep back." ”
When Wang Erniu heard this, he sneered in his heart: "Don't say that your sheep was robbed, even if your wife robbed it, the county magistrate didn't dare to send troops, and he didn't have any money to look at, so just send him away." ”
"Xianggong is about to ascend to the court, you go in, Xianggong has always been peaceful like a son, and he will definitely make decisions for you. Wu Song comforted.
When Wang Erniu heard this, he cried out in his heart: "Oh, your brother is really, why don't you let me speak, let this man in, it must be embarrassing to Xianggong, this is originally my business, you are good, come out and say a casual word, it is estimated that Xianggong will scold me later." ”
But he was also helpless, Wu Song had already let the man in, what could he do.
The magistrate was promoted to the hall, and everyone was very surprised to see that his originally very majestic beard was shaved off, only Wu Song and Su Quan, who was kneeling under the hall, snickered in their hearts.
"Who's kneeling down there?" asked the magistrate.
"The villain is a descendant of the rich man's family, named Su Er, who is responsible for shepherding sheep, who knows that he robbed thirteen sheep from the thieves of Leopard Head Mountain, so he came to ask the minister to be the master!"
The catchers on both sides looked at Wang Erniu very suspiciously, and they all said in their hearts: "Wang Dutou, you ate pork today, are you blindfolded, how can this kind of person appear in the court, don't you deliberately make it difficult for the county magistrate to step down?"
Wang Erniu naturally knew everyone's voices to catch fast, and he also shook his head and sighed, and couldn't help but glance at Wu Song, but he was helpless, this person was extremely righteous towards himself, even if he scolded the county magistrate for this, he could only bear it dumbly.
He is now worried about Wu Song's temperament, how can he be mixed up in the county government in the future.
"Well, the thief official of Leopard Head Mountain has also heard of it, but this mountain belongs to Yanggu County and Qinghe County, and I don't know whether the thieves' lair is on the mountain side of Yanggu County or the mountain side of Qinghe County.....
Everyone in the hall sneered in their hearts: "The county magistrate is a veteran of officialdom, and the words he says are airtight, and the next thing must be that he must send someone to investigate, what is under the jurisdiction of that side, if it belongs to Qinghe County, Yanggu County will not be able to cross the line, and it seems that he is ready to retire." ”
Wang Erniu looked at this Wu Song, and he was also sad in his heart, Wu Song was a hot intestine in the ancient way, if he poured cold water like Zhixian on his head, it would be a bit of a blow.
"You must know that there is a clear distinction between the two counties, and you can't cross the thunder pond by half a step. Zhixian continued, everyone thought they were going on according to their own intentions, and they were all thinking about where to eat and drink after retreating, Zhixian sighed, and said with a sad face: "But now the thieves have endangered the people of this county, the country is dominated by the people, the first day of the official to Yanggu County, he swore on the same day, he must defend the peace of the people, Su Er, this official must be the master for you, send officers and soldiers, exterminate the thieves, you retreat, I should discuss with the county government quickly." ”
Su Quan immediately kowtowed and retreated, and Wang Erniu and everyone in the hall almost dropped their jaws to the ground in surprise, only Wu Song was in his heart.
"Wang Dutou, what do you think about this?" the magistrate glanced at Wang Erniu.
Wang Erniu couldn't guess the county's thoughts at all, so he had to say: "If there is an order from the public, the subordinates should follow it!"
"Hmm!" Zhixian nodded, looked at this Wu Song and asked, "Wudutou, what do you think?"
"Leopard Head Mountain thieves are rampant, making the people uneasy, and they will definitely send troops to fight!" Wu Song waited to say this sentence all morning.
"Well, this official also agrees with you, but Yanggu County has limited troops, and the security has not been good recently, so it needs manpower, if you transfer troops to the upper officer, I'm afraid it will be ....... Oops, what a headache!"
Wu Song looked at the pretending expression of the magistrate, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Nima! Didn't I tell you earlier, don't you need the official of the county government, oh, by the way, you just want me to say this." ”
"Enxiang, in Yanggu County, you are an official and upright, love the people like a son, and win the hearts of the people, I have heard what the people say, if something happens, as long as you raise your arms, the folk Youyong will come out, I estimate that it only takes two days to gather one or two hundred people!"
"Well, that's very good! I'll leave it to you, and in the county office, you can choose twenty officials to follow. The magistrate was in the middle of it, and when he saw that Wu Song had agreed, he knew that he had fallen into his own calculations.
Although the magistrate resented the humiliation he received last night, he was also worried that if Wu Song couldn't exterminate the thieves in Leopard Head Mountain, he would attack the county government for others, and his own black yarn would be difficult to protect, so there was still a future.
"Thank you!" Wu Song did not doubt him, and immediately agreed.
"This matter is very urgent, how many days will it take for Dutou to catch the thieves of Leopard Head Mountain, is it okay in ten days?"
Wu Song is a gentleman with lofty aspirations, where did he think of so much, anyway, he decided to attack Leopard Head Mountain the day after tomorrow, so he said: "It only takes three days!"
"Well, these three days are too hasty!" the magistrate nodded: "That's it, this official will give you seven days, but all the ancient generals who send troops must make a military order, I don't know what to do?"
"What's so difficult about this, but if the minister writes it down, the villain will draw a charge, and if he can't capture Leopard's Head Mountain within seven days, he should bring the head!"
"Okay, then the official will write a military order for you!"
When the magistrate saw Wu Song's plan, a big stone in his heart really fell, and he hurriedly wrote a military order, which said that within seven days, if Wu Song could not capture Leopard Head Mountain, his head would fall to the ground, and Wu Dalang and his wife would be implicated.
He is protecting himself, but Wu Song is alone, and he feels that it is not enough, and it is bound to involve Wu Dalang and his wife, and Wu Song will do his best.
Wu Song didn't look too much, stepped forward, didn't sign, pressed his left hand on the ink inkstone, and stamped a big handprint on the military order!
