Chapter 578 The county order that walked sideways in Hanoi

Copying the county government?

Hearing this, the farmers in the fields were all shocked. In their eyes, the county order is already the sky above this land, and it is also the biggest official they have ever seen, and the general in front of them actually bluntly said that he was going to copy the county government, and asked people to bring the county order here.

Who is he?

Chen Wei took the order and left, took five hundred wolf horses, and rushed to the county seat.

When he came to the city gate, Chen Wei asked where the county government was, and rushed in.

At the gate of the county government, Chen Wei raised his legs and slid off the horse, signaling the wolf cavalry camp to guard all the entrances and exits of the county government, and no one was allowed to go out.

Then, Chen Wei walked up the steps of the palace and knocked on the iron ring on the gate with his hand.

The people hadn't returned home yet, and the county magistrate had slept quite early.

The gate of the county government opened a foot-wide gap, and a servant's head poked out of it, and he saw that Chen Wei was dressed in a military uniform, and he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and asked respectfully, "Who are you?" ”

Chen Wei didn't have the heart to pay attention to this kind of shrimp character, his arm was raised and waved forward, and dozens of wolf knights behind him directly stepped forward and pushed the door in, while the servant was pushed to a stumbling and fell to the ground.

"Zhao Cheng, you go and take charge of raiding the house."

"Xu Brown, you are responsible for searching for ledger records."

"Xie Dingyi, you take someone to find out the county order for me."

Rushing into the courtyard of the mansion, Chen Wei glanced around and commanded in an orderly manner.

The soldiers of the wolf cavalry battalion behind him received the order and immediately split up to act.

The loud commotion outside woke up the man sleeping in the back room, and he opened his eyes and pushed aside the beautiful woman in his arms, his eyes full of anger and annoyance.

"Old, old...... Master, it's not good, it's not good! The steward hurried to report outside the door, and listened to his voice, full of anxiety.

"What happened?"

The slightly muscular man frowned and sat up from the bed. The woman who was also disturbed and woke up got up, her naked body, catfish up like a water snake, stuck to the man's back, stretched out her scarlet tongue, licked the man's earlobe, and her expression was extremely profligate.

"Back to my lord, a cold eagle-eyed man came outside just now, with a lot of soldiers, and he is raiding our county government at the moment!"

The steward answered truthfully, he had been a steward for so long, and it was the first time he had seen someone dare to come and raid their mansion. To put it bluntly, even Wang Kuang, the county guard of Hanoi who is in charge of Wen County, does not have the guts.

When the man inside heard this, he was really angry, and scolded angrily: "Bastard, my government actually dares to raid!" I want to see what kind of thing that doesn't have long eyes, and dares to go wild here! ”

As he spoke, the man pushed away the woman begging for pleasure behind him, put on a thin coat, and walked straight out.

When I came to the courtyard, the valuable things in the government were constantly being moved to the courtyard from all over the place to be checked and counted.

"Which general's subordinate are you who dare to lead troops to break into the county government late at night?"

Among the soldiers who came and went, the man recognized Chen Weinai as the leader of this team at a glance, and stepped forward to question in a deep voice.

He asked himself that in the nearby states and counties, no one dared to be so arrogant as to be so presumptuous.

Chen Wei glanced at this person, and asked instead of answering: "Who are you?" ”

The man straightened his clothes with disdain, as if he didn't take Chen Wei in his eyes, and replied arrogantly: "Contemptible and lofty, the county order here." ”

Chen Wei heard that this person claimed to be a county order, looked up and down, laughed, and waved his hand: "You are a county order?" That's easy, take it for me! ”

The four or five wolf knights around him immediately surrounded him, don't look at Gao Yuan's body, so he only practiced some flower boxing and embroidered legs. In terms of martial arts fighting, he was not the opponent of the wolf cavalry battalion at all, he almost had no power to resist, so he was grabbed by the arm and recharged.

"Let go of me, do you know who I am! If you dare to do this to me, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around in the future! Gao Yuan, who didn't know the reason, struggled extremely violently and roared loudly.

Chen Wei was indifferent to this, glanced at the county magistrate, and said very indifferently: "Plug his mouth." ”

So the wolf knight next to him didn't know where to find a wet and smelly towel, and stuffed it into Gao Yuan's mouth without saying anything. Then I could not hear the loud intimidation of the county magistrate, only his uncomfortable whimper.

"I've died countless times, and I'm afraid of your little threat. This time, even if the king of heaven comes, it is estimated that he will not be able to save you. ”

Chen Wei sneered, then turned his head and ordered the soldiers in the courtyard: "You continue to investigate, I will take him to see the general first." ”

Under the moonlight, the long line stretched for a long time.

Lu Bu got off his horse and sat down beside the road, while Chi Su was beside him, bowing his head and chewing the grass on the edge of the field, and all the soldiers who were trekking behind him stopped and rested on the spot.

The farmers standing in the fields were at a loss, like students who had made a mistake in front of the teacher, and they seemed very reserved.

Da ~ ~ Da ~ Under the quiet moonlight, the sound of hurried hooves sounded in the quiet suburbs, from far and near.

Chen Weile, who rushed here from Wen County, stopped, turned over and dismounted, and dragged Gao Yuan on the horse's back down.

"General, this person is the county magistrate of Wen County." Chen Wei stepped forward and clenched his fists and reported it.

Lu Bu glanced at Gao Yuan, and saw that he was not wearing an official uniform, and he was already a little unhappy in his heart. He ordered the soldiers to let go of Gao Yuan first, and then ordered someone to take the towel from his mouth, and asked: "You are the county commander here?" ”

cough cough cough ~~

Gao Yuan, who took the wet wipes in his mouth, pinched his throat with his hand, knelt on the ground and coughed violently, obviously suffering enough along the way.

Hearing Lu Bu's question, Gao Yuan looked up, he didn't recognize Lu Bu, so he subconsciously asked: "Where did you come from, a general, who dared to trespass into my Hanoi territory!" ”

"Also, you connived at your subordinates to break into the official residence at night and insult the officials of the court. I will definitely go up, dismiss you, and show you your home! ”

Gao Yuan scolded angrily, he dared to speak like this, naturally he had enough capital.

"You donkey grass thing, in front of my family, what kind of arrogance!"

Cao Xing stepped forward with a kick, kicked Gao Yuan to the ground, and gnawed a mouthful of dirt.

Gao Yuan, who fell to the ground, screamed in the sky, pointed at Cao Xing, and his eyes were gloomy: "You dare to beat the court officials!" ”

"Phew, it's light to beat you, believe it or not, Lao Tzu stabbed you and ended you!" As he spoke, Cao Xing pulled out his waist knife and was about to step forward and slash Gao Yuan.

Before the matter was clear, of course Lu Bu would not let Cao Xing kill this person, his sitting body leaned forward slightly for half a minute, and asked the Wen County Commander: "Let me ask you, who made you collect the tax on food in the local area, and it has increased it by more than ten times." ”

"Of course Wen Hou told me."

Gao Yuan didn't think about it, and replied as a matter of course.

Lu Bu frowned, his eyes were a little more gloomy, and he asked in a cold voice: "When did I say this to you?" ”

"When are you ......" Gao Yuan sneered and just wanted to taunt him, but then as if he thought of something, he suddenly stopped, looked at Lu Bu with a shocked face, and shouted for a long time: "You are-Lu Bu!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ji, who came with him, suddenly scolded: "Presumptuous, the little county official dares to call Da Sima's name!" ”

Xiao Ji's words undoubtedly confirmed Lu Bu's identity.

"He, he, he, he......"

In the field, Xiang Laoqi, who learned Lu Bu's identity, said that it was not good, and his face was like earth, if it wasn't for the support of the people next to him, it is estimated that he would have been paralyzed on the ground.

Remembering that he was still scolding loudly in front of Lu Bu just now, the more he thought about it, the more frightened Xiang Lao Qi couldn't help but darken his eyes, leaned back, and fainted on the spot.

The rest of the peasants were also terrified, and they all knelt in the dirt, not daring to raise their heads.

Seeing that he was frightened by these simple farmers, Lu Bu raised his hand: "You don't need to be polite, get up." ”

But the peasants did not dare, and knelt in the fields, trembling with fear.

"If you don't get up, then Lu can only come to help in person." Lu Bu said with a smile, trying to keep his words as gentle as possible.

As soon as the peasants heard this, they didn't dare to let Lu Bu go down to the field to help, so they all hurriedly stood up and stood aside respectfully, not daring to move in the slightest.

After comforting the people, Lu Bu's next thing to do was naturally to punish the local county magistrate.

Knowing that the person in front of him was the great Sima of the dynasty, Gao Yuan was also stunned for a moment, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, his eyes rolled twice, and he had a plan, and said with a smile: "The big Sima is coming to Wen County, why don't you notify the lower officials in advance, and the lower officials should prepare early, and go out of the city to greet them." ”

"Do you still know that you are an official of the imperial court?"

Under the moonlight, Lu Bu added a little frost to his face, and asked loudly: "Then have you ever thought that you woke up from a sleep at home, but these people didn't even return home." Also, I obviously exempted the people of Wen County from eating, why do you still impose taxes? ”

"This ......"

Gao Yuan's face was embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to say euphemistically: "There are many reasons for this matter, and I also ask Wen Hou to move to the mansion, and the lower officials will slowly gather to you." ”

"What can not be said in front of the people? Today, I want you to be here truthfully, if you can't tell the reason, I will put you in prison and interrogate you strictly, and I will not tolerate it! ”

Lu Bu didn't give Gao Yuan the slightest face, for this kind of person who harmed the people under his banner, he was simply innocent.

Gao Yuan saw that Lu Bu was so unsentimental, so he simply moved out of the backstage, his tone was a little more confident, and his voice also raised by two points: "Da Sima, please also look at the Gao family, don't make things difficult for the officials." ”

"The Gao family? Which Gao family? ”

Lu Bu frowned, his face suspicious, obviously he hadn't heard of it.

At this time, Xiao Ji stepped forward, leaned over and whispered in Lu Bu's ear: "Lord, the Gao family in this person's mouth must be Chen Liu's prestigious family-Gao family." ”

Gao's filial piety for several generations, and the accumulation of the name has become a kind of political capital. enjoys a high reputation in Shilin, and in recent years, he has married the Yuan family in Runan, which can be described as soaring.

Whether it is Yuan Shao, who is entrenched in Jizhou, or Yuan Shu, who runs Huainan, there are many protΓ©gΓ©s of the Gao family under his subordinates.

There are two families of Gao and Yuan, Gao Yuan is in the Hanoi area, and he is naturally a character who walks sideways, and even the county guard Wang Kuang can only be helpless.

"Don't talk to me about these useless things, I just want to know, who made you raise taxes? Also, where did so much grain go with so much collected every year? ”

At the beginning, Lu Bu even dared to detain Chang'an by Yuan Shu, could he still be afraid of the threat of him, a small county official.

If Gao Yuan really sent the collected grain to Chang'an, it might be understandable, but the problem is that so far, Lu Bu has not even seen a grain of grain.

"Da Sima, leave a line in everything, you don't have to do it so badly!" Gao Yuan still had no intention of confessing, and wanted to continue to negotiate with Lu Bu.

Lu Bu lost patience, summoned Xiao Ji behind him, and instructed him: "Yuan Tu, this person will be handed over to you." I'll give you the night, wake up tomorrow morning, and I want to know all the answers. ”

"Don't worry, the lord will be able to make him confess in less than one night."

Xiao Ji bowed down to receive the order, and he had the intention to behave in front of Lu Bu, so as to be reused and favored by the lord. Now that the opportunity has come, I can't let it go.

As for the way to make Gao Yuan confess, there are so many torture methods in prison, and there is always one that will make him honest.

Seeing that Xiao Ji agreed simply, Lu Bu didn't say more, got on his horse, and took advantage of the moonlight to lead the army to continue marching in the direction of Wen County.

After the army left, the farmers in the fields finally breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that they had angered Lu Bu just now because of their words, and they would harm the fish pond.

Fortunately, God willing.

"Is he really Wen Hou? It doesn't seem to be as vicious as rumored, or even ...... Still a little kind? ”

"Nonsense, don't you see the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command behind him!"

"Alas, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that Wen Hou, who was mighty in the world, and Da Sima, who held a heavy army, would actually care about me as an old thing and shout 'old man'."

Just as the farmers were talking endlessly, Xiang Lao Qi, who had fainted, slowly woke up, opened a slit in his eyes, and was greeted by a group of chattering black shadows, and he muttered in confusion: "Where is this, hell?" ”

Then, he fainted again.

Lu Bu's army walked for half an hour and came to the city of Wenxian.

The army did not enter the city, but let Gao Shun lead the army and stationed it outside the city. Lu Bu himself took twenty or thirty horsemen and walked towards the city.

Among these twenty or thirty people, the majority of the scribes were among them, and Xi Ce, Guo Jia and others were among them.

"Boss, are we going to the county government?" After Cao Xing, who was following behind, looked left and right, he asked curiously.

At this time, it was getting late, but people in the city were returning home one after another. After they saw Lu Bu and the others, they all took the initiative to avoid them, and it was not until after Lu Bu and the others left that they dragged their tired bodies and continued to walk in the direction of their homes.

Hearing Cao Xing's question, Lu Bu, who was riding on the back of Chi Su, shook his head slightly, he turned to look at the young man who was in the right position and served as Cang Cao under him, and asked with a smile: "Boda, I heard others mention that your hometown is in Wen County. Why, don't you take me to sit? ”
