Chapter 122: Fighting Gentry

When I walked out of the house, I found that it was already dark, a soldier carrying a lantern to lead the way in front, and the houses on both sides of the road were full of shadows, as if there were many soldiers hiding in the shadows with weapons, Wu Jinshen's anger suddenly disappeared, and then he realized that the person he was about to face was extraordinary, but a powerful person who defeated the Manchurian Tartars and recovered Fangshan County, and could not be treated as an ordinary inspection.

When they entered the second hall and looked at the young and cold faces sitting behind the table under the flickering candlelight, the three of them couldn't help but bend down and bow.

"I've seen the inspector!"

Chen Yue looked at the three people below coldly, was silent for a while, and said, "This official is busy with official business, but he has neglected a few people, please forgive me." ”

As he spoke, he invited the three of them to sit down and let someone bring tea.

"I don't know why the three of you came to see this official?" After snubbing them for a long time, the dismount had already been given, Chen Yue didn't want to ink anymore, so he got straight to the point.

After listening to Chen Yue's questioning, the three looked at each other, and Wu Jinshen spoke on behalf of the three of them.

"Back to my lordship, I have come to ask for my lordship, in order to ask for our family's belongings." Wu Jinshen was sitting precariously and said with a serious expression.

"Oh?" Chen Yue put down the teacup, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, and replied easily, "The official wants to ask, why do you ask the official for your things?" ”

Yes! Wu Jinshen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at the other two, he thought that Chen Yue would shirk it, and he also made a plan to give some blood, but he didn't expect Chen Yue to completely deny it, this is obviously to rely on all his own belongings. Thinking of the property worth nearly 10,000 taels, Wu Jinshen's heart was dripping blood, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden.

"My lord, are you kidding?" Wu Jinshen's voice cooled down, he was from a dignified background, how could he let others tease!

"Are you kidding? Hehe, the official is very busy, but he is not in the mood to play with you! Chen Yue put away his smile, and told Wu Jinshen and the others with a serious face that he was serious, how could he spit out what he ate in his mouth!

"My lord, I'll be straight down, some time ago, Fangshan was looted by the Manchu Tartars, and our wealth was robbed by the Mantars. Your Excellency has driven away the Mantars, recaptured the wealth, and please return the things to their rightful owners! We will keep in mind the kindness of adults, and we will definitely not let adults work in vain. Wu Jinshen stopped going around in circles, put forward his requirements straightforwardly, and then stared at Chen Yue with blazing eyes, he wanted to see how bold this little inspection was!

"Yes, my lord, all the goods and silver in my mountain store have been robbed by Mantar, and now not only can I not open the door to do business, but I can't even eat, please be kind to my lord, and give me back the reward." is also begging for money, and the tone of the shopkeeper Song is much more gentle.

"Well, I kind of get it. You are playing with the loot I have taken from the Mantars. Chen Yue looked at the three of them with a smile and said: "Maybe some of them are your family's property, but in the final analysis, I took it from the hands of Mantar and has become the property of the imperial court. ”

Seeing Chen Yue's appearance of pushing three, five or six, Wu Jinshen was annoyed all of a sudden, the loss of property, and the shame of being left out for a long time suddenly came to his heart, and he no longer cared about Chen Yue's identity, and the words rushed out of his mouth.

"You are just a small inspection, from the top of the nine sesame seeds, how qualified are you to represent the imperial court and represent the government? It's okay to return my things quickly, otherwise I will repair the book to the same year in the capital, and you will be exempted from this inspection, which is a matter of one sentence! ”

As Wu Jinshen, he is a pivotal figure in Fangshan, and he has always been friends with the magistrate of the county and county, and he was a big official in the same year in the capital, how could Chen Yue's small inspection be placed in his eyes.

Listening to Wu Jinshen's words, Chen Yue's face suddenly turned cold.

"I have a little patrol, don't forget, when you were captured by the Manchu Tartars, who led the army to defeat the Manchus, and saving them is equal to fire and water?

It's my little patrol! Now that you speak like this to the benefactor who saved your life, have you read all your books to the belly of a dog? ungrateful, you really disgrace the reader, do you have a little shame in your heart? ”

Chen Yue's words were like a heavy sledgehammer, hitting Wu Jinshen's heart fiercely, and he scolded him with a red face and annoyance.

"Vulgar, rude, you are a martial artist, you dare to insult the people of the court!" Wu Jinshen stood up and pointed at Chen Yue, his lips trembling.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Shopkeeper Song hurriedly stepped forward, pulled Wu Jinshen behind him, and said to Chen Yue with a smile, "Master Wu is a little unsecretive, please forgive me, I will retire and come to visit another day." As he spoke, he dragged Wu Jinshen away.

"You are just a small inspection from the ninth grade, you wait for me, wait for me to repair a book, and give it to Master Zhang Shilang of the Beijing Military Department, you must be removed as a dog official!" Wu Jinshen struggled, pointing at Chen Yue and scolding.

"Come on, take them down for me!" Chen Yue's face sank and he ordered.

Several guards rushed out from under the hall and held Wu Jinshen tightly, even with the shopkeeper Song and Hong Jinshen, who didn't talk much.

"Do you know who I am? I am a dignified man, and you dare to take me? "Wu Jinshen is going crazy, how can he ever be treated like this.

"Are you a dignified person? No, I suspect that you are a traitor of the Manchu Tartars, and you have long surrendered to the Mantars and become a traitor! Chen Yue said and walked down the hall, lifted the melon skin hat on Wu Jinshen's head, and the shaved forehead and the money rattail braid on the back of his head immediately came into everyone's eyes.

"With such a haircut, you dare to say that you are a person in the imperial court!" Chen Yue said contemptuously, he kept looking at Wu Jinshen a little strange, because he didn't even have a little sideburns under his hat, and now he picked up his hat, which really confirmed his guess.

The hat was taken off, revealing an ugly money braid, Wu Jinshen wilted all of a sudden, and explained with a pale face, "This was forced to be shaved by the Mantars, not my original intention." ”

"Aren't scholars particular about integrity? What about your integrity, did you become a traitor when the Tartars forced you? Chen Yue asked contemptuously.

"I'm not a traitor, I'm not a traitor." Wu Jinshen's legs were weak, and he collapsed to the ground, muttering with tears on his face.

Chen Yue took off the hats of Shopkeeper Song and Hong Jinshen again, revealing the shaved blue head, but the braid on the back of the head was missing.

"It's not too stupid to know that you cut your braids, but that doesn't change the fact that you shaved your hair. Come on, lock these three people up for me and ask them slowly to see if they are full of Tartar spies. ”

Chen Yue gave an order, and several guards rushed over, grabbed a few people who were crying and begging, and dragged them out.
