Chapter 22: Simple and Crude
Master Wang went home to wait for Xu Boyi's news, and he didn't panic in his heart. With Hua Qingfeng's usual character, even if he wants to make a difference, he will not be so fast, he always has to knock on the side first, and then show his mouth a little, and then carefully test, once he encounters a strong backlash, he will stop fighting, this time should be no exception, even if it is instigated by Ye Xiaotian.
But he didn't expect that Ye Xiaotian had already seen through Hua Qingfeng's character, so this time Ye Xiaotian simply tied Hua Qingfeng to his chariot, dragged and dragged him, forcing him to rush in front with him, but Hua Qingfeng actually drove Xu Boyi back to the county office, and what he got was not a news, but a result.
This time, Wang Ning couldn't sit still, he immediately dressed up neatly, and went straight to the county office, Wang Zhushu strode forward, and just walked to the ring stone in front of the main hall of the county government that read "Erfeng Erlu, the people's fat and the people's ointment", Ye Xiaotian happened to walk quickly from the other side.
As soon as he saw the king's book, Ye Xiaotian immediately arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Ouch! Isn't this Lord Wang, the lower officials heard that Lord Wang is seriously ill and bedridden, why did he come to the government? The lower official was planning to visit the lord after the release of the government. ”
"Ahh It turned out to be Ye Dian Shi! Long time gone, long time gone! ”
Wang Ning said, his upright chest collapsed little by little, and after saying a word, he had become a look of leaning his waist, bending his legs slightly, and his face was half dead, he coughed weakly, and said: "The old man is old, cough cough, his health is not good, but now the county magistrates have personally gone on the post road, and the old man, as a second official, can't help but follow the power of dogs and horses......"
Wang Ning pointed to the stone inscription of the ring that was written by Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, and has been standing all over the world since then, and said: "Erfeng Erlu, the people's fat and the people's ointment." The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive! If I wait for the court to eat, I should do my best, and then die! ”
Ye Xiaotian said with admiration on his face: "Master Wang is really a model for my juniors!" Admire! Admire! ”
Wang Ning said pretendedly: "Don't dare, don't dare!" The old man has been recuperating for a while. There is a large backlog of official documents, and the old man will deal with it first, and then get close to Ye Dianshi when he is free. ”
Ye Xiaotian said: "Okay, good, Lord Wang, please!" Wang Zhushu nodded slightly, walked away, he looked sideways at Ye Xiaotian's movements, and when he saw Ye Xiaotian's figure disappearing at the gate of the courtyard, he immediately quickened his pace and went straight to Xu Boyi's signing room.
Ye Xiaotian returned to his signing room, and there was already a scribe waiting at the door. As soon as he saw him coming, he stepped forward and reported: "My lord, there is a scholar who has been waiting in your room for a long time, saying that he is your old friend. ”
Ye Xiaotian secretly wondered: "Scholar's old friend? Could it be that Tang Xianzu is here? ”
Although Ye Xiaotian was born in a lift, he never went to a county school or a government school, and he rarely dealt with scholars, neither classmates nor Shilin friends, but there were some in the same year that he was lifted together, but he has never had any contacts.
It's like a string of sugar gourds in the room. A small room at the door, where the servants lived, followed by a large open room with seven or eight tables. This is the office of a group of officials, and the innermost set of rooms is Ye Xiaotian's room.
Ye Xiaotian walked into the room and saw a white-shirted scholar get up. Ye Xiaotian looked at the man and couldn't help but be surprised. Almost screaming, he quickly closed the door and hurried forward. Whispered, "Madam?" You...... What are you doing here? ”
It turned out that the white-shirted scholar sitting there was Su Ya, Su Ya was wearing men's clothes this time differently from the last time, the last time she visited Ye Xiaotian on a rainy night, she wore men's clothes to facilitate walking, and she didn't really hide it, so it was easy to see that it was a woman, and this time she was seriously dressed up.
Rao is like this, as long as you look carefully, you can still see that she is a woman, at least a man who is a man with the extreme appearance of a boy and a girl, no wonder the official is full of warmth and ambiguity. It's just that although this Mrs. Ya has lived in the county government for more than five years, there are very few people who know her in the front office, so the official would never have thought that she was actually the county lady of the county.
When Su Ya saw Ye Xiaotian, she hurriedly said, "Ye Dianshi, the concubine has an important matter to tell you." ”
Ye Xiaotian said: "In any case, Madame shouldn't venture to the front office, once she is recognized, how can she get it." ”
Su Ya was angry and said, "What's the matter? I'm not afraid of a woman's family, what are you afraid of? ”
Ye Xiaotian could only smile bitterly, why does this sound so warm, I have no personal relationship with you, and besides, I, Ye Xiaotian, have never been a gentleman, and I am not afraid of people's irresponsible opinions, isn't this for your sake? Ye Xiaotian said helplessly: "Isn't the lower official worried about affecting the reputation of his wife?" ”
Su Ya said angrily: "Okay, okay, don't talk about these useless things." Mrs. Ben just got an urgent news, but there is no one available around her, although Cui'er's girl is hearted, she is not a person who can explain big things, she can't even understand the words, Mrs. Ben has to go out in person. ”
Su Ya's back house is full of ordinary maids-in-law, how can anyone help her pass on the news and handle things, originally her brother Su Xuntian could freely enter and leave the inner house, but after Hua Qingfeng got on the post road, Su Xuntian, as his brother-in-law, naturally had to accompany him to help his brother-in-law, and Su Ya had no one available.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian heard what she said so urgently, he became cautious unconsciously, and hurriedly invited Su Ya to sit down, and he also sat down opposite, and asked anxiously, "I don't know what is important for Madame?" ”
Su Ya said: "Xu Boyi wants to do something on the post road and force the humble husband to ask him back." The clumsy husband has always been square, and he doesn't understand this trick at all, but he is afraid that he will suffer a big loss. Master Dianshi is alert and discerning, Xu Boyi wants to calculate that it is not easy for you, and he also asked Master Dianshi to return to the post road to preside over the overall situation. ”
Ye Xiaotian was slightly stunned, his eyes flickered, and he said, "Xu Boyi wants to do something on the post road?" Hey! It's really dizzy! For his own selfish desires, he actually wants to ignore the court and Li Shu! ”
Su Ya said: "Such a villain, what else can you expect from him?" After Mrs. Ben learned the news, she was really anxious, Ye Dianshi, do you have a countermeasure! ”
Ye Xiaotian said thoughtfully: "Xu Boyi must be very cautious and cautious if he wants to do something, how did Madam know?" Could it be ...... Is that the news that Mrs. heard in the inner room buried next to Xu Boyi? ”
Su Ya said vigilantly: "What? Do you still want to get to the bottom of me? Ye Dianshi, the news I got is true, you just have to be careful, you and I are in the same boat. Can't you trust me? ”
His own hole cards, of course, can't tell others, otherwise how can there be the capital to cooperate, although Su Ya is a woman, but this shrewdness is still there. Ye Xiaotian smiled and said, "Xiaguan is just curious, since Madame doesn't want to say, Xiaguan doesn't ask!" ”
Su Ya hurriedly said: "How can Ye Dianshi still sit so steadily, go back to the post road quickly!" ”
Ye Xiaotian winked at her and said, "If the lower official is on the post road." Even if Xu Boyi wants to do tricks, the means will inevitably be more secretive, and it will be more difficult to find out when the time comes. The lower official is not there, so that Xu Boyi can boldly jump out! ”
Su Ya was originally an extremely smart woman, and when she heard Ye Xiaotian's words, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then stood up in surprise, and said, "You already knew that he must have the means, didn't you?" Do you already have a plan in place? ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled slightly, and also stood up with her. said: "Madam, Xu Boyi has suffered a big loss, of course he won't give up lightly, this matter can be thought of without deep thought." The lower official is now waiting for him to make a move. If not, how can you help the county magistrate to establish his authority?
Madame, don't worry, go back to the back house early, Xiaguan is full of people here. There is a lot of inconvenience, if someone really recognizes the identity of the lady, I am afraid that there will be a lot of ugly words coming out. Although it doesn't matter to the lower officials, it is a great harm to you, Mrs. ”
Su Ya heard him mention this matter again and again, and said angrily: "Since you have been prepared, why don't you sue me?" If it weren't for Madame Ben's urgency, who needed to remind you to take precautions as soon as possible, how could she have ventured to come? ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled bitterly: "Madam, everyone has their own secrets, where did Madam get this news, didn't she never tell me?" If Madame lets Na Neima contact the subordinate directly, won't Madame come forward directly? ”
Su Yaden said: "This ...... I ......"
Ye Xiaotian flicked his sleeves in a dashing manner and made a gesture to send off the guest: "Madame, let's go, don't send it!" ”
"You ......"
Su Ya stomped her feet hatefully, and walked past Ye Xiaotian angrily, because her feet were too hard, and her chest suddenly had a turbulent wave.
On the post road, something soon went wrong.
First is a section of the cliff, next to the abyss, the post road is opened in the middle of the cliff, the strange rocks on the top are craggy, very steep, a few days ago heavy rain, some chaotic stones fell to the ground, after being cleared in time, it can be passed, but the rocks on the top are not stable, if there is just a vehicle to pass through the guò when the collapse, the car will inevitably be destroyed and people will die, so take advantage of the fact that there is no convoy dense traffic guò today, the county government began to organize manpower to repair.
As a result, some foremen cut corners, and when supporting and reinforcing the cliff part, the wood and stone used were more than half of the required amount, and as a result, the cliff collapsed during the construction process, and the two servants, who had no time to escape, broke their legs and broke their heads.
Hua Qingfeng was shocked when he heard the news, and hurried to the accident site, this mountain road is difficult, he can't sit in a sedan chair, and it is too dangerous to ride a horse, he rushed all the way on foot, and when he got there, he was sweating and panting.
Responsible for this lot are two contractors, the two shirk each other's responsibilities, the public said that the public is reasonable, the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law is reasonable, the noise made Hua Qingfeng, the angry little daughter-in-law dizzy, followed by Zhou Bantou and hurriedly came to report, Zhang Shiyun, the businessman in charge of quarrying, there was a situation there, and the stone supply was not available.
Originally, most of the mountain roads could be repaired with local materials, but there are always some sections that either do not have large stones, or are themselves roads carved into the cliffs, and the surrounding stones can no longer be mined to prevent the road from collapsing, which requires the stones to be transported from other places.
And Xu Boyi contracted road construction, quarrying, wood quarrying and other affairs to several people, so that each has its own responsibilities, is clearly organized, and the efficiency is far higher than a group of servants who can take care of everything, but the premise is that these people can't pull back, and now Zhang Shiyun has found all kinds of reasons, and would rather breach the contract to compensate a large amount of money, but also insist that he can't mine enough stones, or can't transport it to the designated road section in time, no matter how Hua Qingfeng knows the righteousness, he just refuses to be accommodating.
"Why did so many problems arise as soon as I took office?"
Hua Qingfeng is not stupid, knowing that there must be something strange in it, he suppressed his anger, so as to say that those foremen and businessmen just don't give face, Hua Qingfeng was so angry that he trembled, and said angrily: "Whether the post road is smooth or not is related to the safety of the front-line soldiers, wait ...... Are you not afraid of delaying military planes by doing this? ”
Zhang Shiyun was not afraid of the big hat that Hua Qingfeng had buckled, and shouted: "Big lord, you can't say that, Xiaomin has tried his best, if you can't finish it, you can't finish it, big lord, you can't use your power to suppress people, if you don't believe it, you can organize people to try it yourself." ”
Before the words were finished, a person suddenly appeared in the fast catching class, the steel knife in his hand flashed, only to see a snow practice flashing, "poof" sounded, a red blood light rushed straight into the sky, Zhang Shiyun's body was still standing there straight, one hand still maintained a gesture posture, and his head had already rolled down to the dust.
This change only shocked Hua Qingfeng like a chicken, and before he could react, the steel knife in his hand flashed twice, and the two foremen who cut corners were caught off guard, and the two heads also landed one after another, no one expected that such a thing would happen, and for a while, hundreds of people on the post road were all stunned, only the mountain wind was howling.
Killed! Really killed!
The three good heads rolled to the ground, and the three bloody corpses fell into the dust, no one thought that the county master would really dare to kill and kill? That has to be approved by the emperor's imperial pen and Zhu, what's more, do the three of them have a way to die? This kills?!
The three heads and three canopies of blood frightened Hua Qingfeng, he took three steps back in a row, and almost fell off the cliff with one foot, and fell to pieces.
