Chapter 9: Imperial Power Lower County

Sheng Qinghe couldn't help but tremble when he got out of the carriage. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info at this moment, he was sore, unspeakably uncomfortable, and couldn't help but be sleepy.

After traveling for several days, he finally arrived at Wanping County, west of Beijing, on October 23.

didn't rest in the county seat, Sheng Qinghe hurried to Shengjiazhuang by the Lugou Bridge.

Sheng Yinian grew up here. At that time, he was just a descendant of a poor tenant farmer, but now he has become a pivotal figure in Tianjin Wei, and he can talk and laugh with the magistrate when he returns to his hometown.

After making a fortune, Sheng Yinian did not forget to buy land on the side of Lugou Bridge. The fields of Shengjiazhuang, which flows by the Lugou River, are fertile and expensive, and it is said that in order to buy land, Sheng Yinian invested almost half of the family money he had saved.

But this is not without effect, and the fullness of returning home is enough to offset the pain of silver dual-use. The change of ownership of the fifteenth hectare grange of Shengjiazhuang made Shengjiazhuang the Shengjiazhuang of Shengyinian.

Returning to the village, Shengqinghe can finally relax a little.

But such a thought only lasted for half an hour before Sheng Qinghe had to cheer up. Liuli on the side said in a low voice: "Young Master, Mr. Meng is here." ”

Sheng Qinghe stood up: "Please." ”

Mr. Meng's full name is Meng Yudan, although it is a name that looks quite motherly, he is actually a big man. Moreover, he is still a showman, and he is Mr. Xixi of Sheng Yinian. Although it is named Xixi, considering that Meng Yudan follows Sheng Yinian at any time, and teaches not only the children of the Sheng family but also the Sheng family's tent, it can naturally be seen that this Meng Yudan is actually Sheng Yinian's staff, of course, only one of them.

Compared with Sheng Qinghe's arrival, Meng Yudan came earlier, he went to Wanping County to investigate the news first.

Not long after, the two met in the flower hall.

Meng Yudan is a thin man, neat and neat, wearing a Confucian shirt but with a bit of recklessness.

After seeing the gift, Sheng Qinghe saw some joy on Meng Yudan's face. When asked, as expected, Meng Yudan's actions were quite smooth.

"The Zhending Liang family really didn't mad us, they did contact a lot of people. This time, the gentry of Wanping County and Daxing County are ready. Meng Yudan said with a smile: "We are not acting alone, we must be united more than ever before." Damn, a Wanping County Yadu has a big temper, this time it can be regarded as a chance to vent his evil anger! ”

"That's a good thing." Sheng Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief: "Liyuanzhuang, what about Nanlu Village?" ”

"I've asked them all." Meng Yudan knows the situation of these two families, these are the two big Zhuangzi near Shengjiazhuang, and the family members are all famous, especially the son of Lu Fang in Nanlu Village has also been promoted, and the future is immeasurable.

"How?" Sheng Qinghe asked again.

Meng Yudan slowed down and said, "Everyone has no objection to the original plan. However, Lu Fang meant to delay it first, and he was not in a hurry to go down to the county government first. ”

"They have confidence." Sheng Qinghe didn't say much.

People have a big business, and it is normal for them to be afraid of the county government.

"It's okay to drag it first. The government does not go down to the county, this is a thousand-year-old rule. Without the maintenance of our squire, this can be solved by a decree issued by the county government? Wu Yingke's thinking this time was too simple. Meng Yudan said with a smile.

Sheng Qinghe nodded, but this time he had a bad premonition: "I always feel ...... I'm afraid this time will be a little different. ”

"I really want to come to a few officials who are not afraid of death...... Just hit it out. Meng Yudan was a little unimpressed.

This is, a scholar ran over.

said he was a scholar, but he was actually a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy. Sheng Qinghe also recognized that this was a distant nephew who was working behind Meng Yudan, but he didn't remember his name.

As soon as the scholar came in, he shouted, and was a little frightened: "It's not good, it's not good...... A large group of people came to the Lugou Bridge, and I heard that there were hundreds of them. ”

"A whole bunch of people? Hundreds? Where did it come from, where did it come from, and what identity? It's a mess, there's no meditation at all! Meng Yudan reprimanded, and then he figured it out from the scholar's mouth.

The county government has arrived, but the scale is hundreds, which is really unprecedented, unheard of, enough for the two to overturn their previous relaxed mentality.

"Xu officials go to the countryside, chickens fly and dogs jump, if hundreds of people come, it will be really ......" Sheng Qinghe was stunned.

Meng Yudan felt a little uncomfortable, and he wanted to pat his mouth: it was really a crow's mouth.

Of course, they are not afraid to deal with the county government, but no one likes trouble.

Seeing Meng Yudan walking out with a straight face, Sheng Qinghe thought a little and called Zhuangzi's official family and said, "Call all the nursing homes at home." Wait, the reliable banker also called over, let the banker watch from the side of the road, and be ready to go if something is wrong. Then let a team pick out some souvenirs and prepare, and then watch my gestures. ”

The butler whispered yes and hurried to prepare.

Shengjiazhuang also jumped up with a piece of chickens and dogs. The Lugou Bridge in the upper reaches of Shengjiazhuang is the only way to and from Beijing nearby, which is quite prosperous, because this traffic artery, there is also a town around the Lugou Bridge, and the name is Lugouqiao Town.

Today's Lugouqiao Town is quite lively, and many people from the county seat of Wanping County have come to Lugouqiao Town.

To the great surprise of the people in the vicinity, these county officials were rarely in good order, and they swarmed into a famous Hengxin Hotel and then did not come out.

Hengxin Hotel is an industry under the Hengxin Commercial Bank series, which can be said to be the largest building complex in Lugouqiao Town. There are 100 houses and several courtyards inside, and the most rare thing is that they are all built with new materials, which are simple and generous, sturdy and durable.

When Meng Yudan strode here, he happened to see a few guys hanging a plaque on the door, which read: The county magistrate's office is stationed in the Lugouqiao Town Office.

Meng Yudan didn't pay attention to this, because as soon as he turned his head, he saw that the two of them were also coming with a group of people.

It was an acquaintance who came.

There are two groups of people, one in front of the other, one large and one small.

The one with a little more people is Lu Fang, and the one with a smaller number is Liu Tong from Liyuanzhuang.

The two of them are one after the other, there are a lot of people and a lot of things. Of course, looking at so many sturdy nursing homes, it is obvious that these people are not just here with gifts.

Meng Yudan was a little surprised when he saw this, he was a little out of shape this time.

Lu Fang and Liu Tong stepped forward to greet Meng Yudan, and Liu Tong smiled and said, "Mr. Meng is also here to see the county government this time. ”

On the side, Lu Fang looked at Meng Yudan empty-handed, revealing a subtle smile.

"Yes, yes......" At this time, Sheng Qinghe also walked over, and behind him was a team of people carrying gifts of all sizes.

Lu Fang snorted lightly in his heart and did not speak. I heard that hundreds of people came to the county office, and everyone came to find out the truth.

The four of them were polite, and then walked towards the dispatch office.

It's just that as soon as I approached the door, I found that there were two upright guards inside. This guard is full of energy and a strong spirit. The most important thing, of course, is that both guards are armed with ZTE rifles with bayonets attached. As soon as he saw a large number of people coming, he immediately became vigilant.

The so-called vigilance is to meet the enemy with a gun, with a vigilant face, staring at a group of visitors, as if a picture of how to kill and commit murder has been predetermined in his mind.

In this way, it is full of the spirit of a hundred battles.

Seeing this, the four of them all raised a question: "Where did this group of officials come from with such a big face, and there are still such heroic guards?" Could it be that Wu Yingke of Wanping Zhi County came here in person? ”

As soon as they thought of this, the four of them suddenly became serious.

In the end, the four of them elected Lu Fang as the leader, stepped forward and said to the two guards with a smile: "I am waiting here to see Lord Wu of Zhixian County." ”

"Zhixian?" The two guards glanced at each other and shook their heads: "There is no county here, please go back." ”

Lu Fang was shocked again, these two little soldiers were obviously not playing with their hearts, so Wu Yingke was really not in it. This made him more cautious, and said in a low voice: "In this case, please also spread the word, in Lu Fang, Xiannan Lu Village, this time I came to ask to see the secretary of the household fee." ”

"Fei Shuban?" The expressions of the two guards moved.

Lu Fang's heart relaxed for a while.

But instead, the two guards shook their heads in unison: "There is no such person here." Guys, please come back. ”

As he spoke, the door slammed shut.

After eating the closed door, several people were a little stunned at this time.

"What's going on?" Meng Yudan didn't understand.

Liu Tong was also puzzled: "Fei Ding is not here?" The county government has such a big deal this time, and Fei Ding can't come forward. Even if you don't come, at least there will be a character who is a disciple and a grandson. In the old days, I would have sat at home and waited for them to come to their door. Now I'm waiting for all of us to come here, and I actually ......"

"Eat the closed door!" Lu Fang gritted his teeth with hatred: "Doesn't this Fei Ding plan to work in Wanping County in the future?" ”

Obviously, Lu Fang was annoyed.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves behind him.

One of them got off the horse and led everyone to stride towards the four of them, and said with a hearty smile: "I see you everywhere, and I see closed doors everywhere, and I am begging a few people to leave." I never thought everyone was here! ”

Lu Fang and the other four turned around and looked, all with ghostly expressions on their faces.

"Fetin? The people of the house? ”

"You're not inside the door?"

"It's ...... here"

……

Fei Ding looked at the four of them blankly and said, "I'm not here, can I be there?" I've just come from the county seat, and with such a look, isn't something wrong? ”

Looking at the police office where the gate was closed and he couldn't even see the sign, Lu Fang held his breath and said, "This is not the place to speak, it's all my house......"

……

The group came in a big way, and they went home in despair.

At this time, in the Hengxin Hotel, Xi Bin was a little excited and nervous: "Just stopped? ”

"Or else? What did Brother Xi think would happen, he rushed out and fought without success? At this time, a man with extraordinary bearing walked out and said with a smile.

"It turned out to be Director Liang." Xi Bin shook his head, but it was a pity: "I really hope that they will rush in, hurt people again, and the crime of storming the government will come out, and this errand is expected to end early." ”

"You......" This person is naturally Liang Yixin, a talented person from the county school, and at the moment he is the director of this dispatch office: "How can it be so simple." ”

"Then Director Liang is determined to ignore it, so he is not afraid that they will get involved?" Xi Bin pointed over there, and Lu Fang, Fei Ding and the others returned to Nanlu Village side by side.

"Dogs can't change ****...... Where are the habits of these old bureaucrats so easy to change? Haha, say something nice. Since they think they smell the same thing, we can't stop it. Liang Yixin understands that these officials rarely have the courage and courage to join the reform, and they also have the greed and stupidity to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

"Then why don't you see the gentry?" Xi Bin still didn't quite understand: "Maybe some of the gentry will support it?" ”

"One ......" Liang Yixin pointed to the noisy talents behind him, and said helplessly: "Our team has not been built yet, and if we want to let the gentry see the reality in a hurry, it is inevitable that people will take advantage of it." ”

"Both...... Who is our enemy and who is our friend must always be carefully watched. ”

"Finally...... What we have to do is never to be reluctant, not to steal peace, not to get by. When we stand here this time and bring out such a team, we are destined to become a part of history. The era when the empire could not govern the county...... It's over! Liang Yixin looked at it from afar, and Xi Bin saw the spark that he had seriously burst out.

……

In the courtyard of the Lu family in Nanlu Village, the four of them entered the main topic after sitting down.

"Say, don't say that you are in the county government and don't know what the identity of the person who went to the countryside this time is?" Lu Fang was very impatient.

Fei Ding's expression relaxed: "Of course I know the identities of these people. The name of the person in charge this time must be as familiar to you. ”

"Oh?" Lu Fang frowned.

"This person is Liang Yixin." Ferdin's didn't sell much.

couldn't hook the day, and the four of them changed color all of a sudden. The one they have been familiar with recently with the Liang family is Liang Qingbiao.

"Of course, it's Liang Menglong's Liang family." Fei Ding continued: "However, it is not the Liang family that is on the same side as Liang Qingbiao. This man was thirty years old, and was hailed as a genius when he was young, and a talent at the age of sixteen. It's a pity that almost 20 years have passed now, and he is still a showman. Therefore, the Liang family is ashamed of him. ”

"No matter how shameful it is, he is also a person who understands the situation in the township...... Just as he was about to ask him to come to clear the fields, we would have a hard time then......" Sheng Qinghe said in a deep voice.

"Fei Ding, if you think of using the method of self-respect, I'm afraid you've found the wrong place......" Lu Fang snorted coldly.

"Haha, Lu Yuanwai is too worried." Fei Ding smiled slightly embarrassed, and soon said with a relaxed face: "This matter is okay." Even if a scholar is familiar with his hometown, how many people can make him successful? I have a way, as long as you do what you say tomorrow, you will let this imperial power go to the countryside will disappear in an instant! (To be continued.) )
