Chapter 810: Triangle

Ma County ordered the matter of loyalty, and found the old lady of Shuqi to draw up a moral and political inscription, all four or six, nine out of ten are actually the words in the old book.

Fortunately, the tone is sonorous when it reads, and it is good, and it is quite smooth to read, and the battle is also very neat.

Li Deng didn't know what to do, but when he saw it, he couldn't stop praising it, and even said that he had bothered to do it. He also said that in the future, if there is this text in the old master's anthology, it will definitely be immortal and glorious to each other.

The happy Li Deng ordered five copies to be copied on the door, one to be handed over to the county order, and asked him to hire a stonemason to erect a tablet and engrave the inscription, and the remaining four copies were to be brought back to Changsha so that they could be presented to the adults.

Master Zhou privately found two officials and instructed them to prepare to take off their boots for the adults at the city gate.

It has always been the case that the Qing officials have left office, and the people plan to keep their boots, so the people should spontaneously raise money to buy a new pair of official boots first, so that the Qing officials can be replaced, and the adults should not be allowed to walk barefoot.

Although the two officials also received a little favor from Li Deng and were willing to take off their shoes for him, they were absolutely unwilling to ask them to pay for new shoes by themselves, so Li Deng had to pay for the money himself, and Master Zhou sent it down.

Soon everything was properly explained, and on the day of departure, Li Deng deliberately made a fool of himself, put on a full deacon in the yamen, and vigorously sounded the gong to open the way.

The sedan chair walked in front, and what kind of umbrellas for the people, moral and political monuments, etc., were placed on half a street, all of which were bought with his own heartache money. In the meantime, for the sake of face, I can't say anything.

Xu Hao and Wu Jing followed the people to see the excitement, there were really a lot of people watching on both sides, some pointed, some talked and laughed, and some people stood up and protruded, gritted their teeth and cursed loudly.

Wu Jingchuan smiled and said: "It's no wonder that the talents scolded the officials shamelessly, even I am ashamed to be with him, it's really shameless." ”

Xu Hao put his hands behind his back and said, "For the official bones." A year is not as good as a year, even if the kneeling ceremony is canceled, some people's bones are still soft, and fame and fortune make people bend their waists. ”

In the face of the ridicule and ridicule of the people, today's Master Li is magnanimous, pretending not to hear anything, and not to care. After a short time, he walked to the academy, and the grandmaster led a few old first-class students to be sent here.

Li Deng got out of the sedan chair. After a few words of greeting, the grandmaster was going to toast the lamp, but Li Deng insisted on refusing, and all living beings asked together, and sent his parents and officials to leave their posts.

Xu Hao looked at this scene coldly, and saw Li Deng's touched look, as if he had really benefited the people.

Everyone parted with a white paper fan, and wrote a farewell poem with seven words and eight sentences, and the children took it. Hold it in both hands. Li Deng asked the old master Xixi to write it for him in advance, and it should have been the students who took out their fans and respectfully asked the adults to leave the ink treasure.

While he was humble, suddenly there was a commotion in the distance. As soon as Li Deng was about to call someone to inquire, someone had already come to report it, and he shouted: "My lord, the plaque on the ancestral hall is accompanied by the immortal throne. was beaten to pieces by a group of hooligans, and said that he would throw the adult's tablet in the pit. ”

Generally speaking, even if it is a corrupt official leaving office. Basically, it has nothing to do with ordinary people, and no one can make trouble. Even if he is disgusted with the fact that Governor Li opened a donation bureau, after all, the time is still short, and the impact is very small, in addition, the suppression of Huang Hansheng and other troublemakers will not affect many people, and the people will not fight with the officials.

Li Deng also took this in mind, a big mayor was leaving, and he didn't expect that someone would have trouble getting along with him, but he was no longer the prefect, and he couldn't have a seizure, and his face was blue with anger.

The Grandmaster said, "Where are the scoundrels? The academy is a heavy land, and it dares to form a party and run rampant, and there is really no royal law. ”

As he spoke, he walked over, and saw a large group of people waving their arms and fists, pointing fingers and scolding corrupt officials and unconscious officials.

The grandmaster still wanted to open his mouth to scold, but found that there were two people in it who he recognized, they were students who had repeatedly taken the third and fourth class exams in the monthly class, and when he saw him, his eyes were about to breathe fire, and he immediately rushed up and wanted to beat people.

Fortunately, the grandmaster saw the opportunity quickly, shrank back silently, pulled Li Deng to hide in the academy, and said: "My lord, please sit inside for a while, you can't go outside, don't eat the loss, you can't make a mistake." ”

Li Deng said unconvinced: "How much ability do a few children have to dare to destroy the ancestral hall of this mansion?" ”

said that he insisted on going out in person, but he was pulled by the grandmaster and others, and he was not allowed to go out.

It turned out that Ma County Ling was so angry when he heard that the steward Ma Agen exposed that Lai Daquan had hooked up with his daughter, needless to say, interrogating his daughter and telling the truth, the problem is that Lai Daquan is a man with a wife, and he is a gangster with no reputation, and he will not let his daughter make him a child if he kills Ma County, so he has no face to question Li Deng, and said in a bad heart, Don't you want to leave Yongshun in style? I'll tell you to fuck off.

In this way, he sent people to connect with Li Deng's last time to arrest a cadre of talents and friends for no reason, and Yongshun these scholars like nothing to do the most, which can be said to be a hundred responses, among which there are really to take revenge, and there are also those who come to fight grievances, and people from all counties have rushed to hear the news, and the number of people has gathered more and more, as many as hundreds.

Today, Ma County Ling did not send a few people to maintain order, but even arranged ten people, and Lai Daquan must be beaten to death while he is in chaos, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.

In this way, Li Deng once again understood the temper of Yongshun people, and seeing that there was going to be a lot of trouble outside, the grandmaster persuaded him to copy from the small road to the city gate, and after thinking about it, he agreed.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, away from those troublemakers, Li Deng was about to hold a ceremony to keep his boots, and he rushed out without guarding against hulala, and rushed out, not only did the boots not be kept, but the whole person was pushed down, and the black gauze hat was squeezed away.

In the chaos, Li Deng was only wearing socks and squeezed around in the crowd with his waist bent, but fortunately, his hat was gone, and people could not recognize him as the prefect, so he was not beaten.

However, in an instant, the sedan chair was trampled to the point of not being shaped, the deacon was also washed away, the Wanmin umbrella became garbage, the moral and political monument was broken, and the family members were beaten and frequently knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Li Deng was so frightened that he was helped by Master Zhou to flee into the alley, and on the way, he saw his brother-in-law Lai Daquan lying on the ground dying, as if he was being kicked and beaten by a group of people.

At this moment, Xu Hao, who came with him, showed murderous intentions in his eyes, and planned to go over to solve Li Deng, but was stopped by Li Dong, who had been prepared, and begged: "Young master, by all means." When I came, my grandmother told me that you can't come by your temperament anymore. ”

Wu Jing was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Childe, it is not a pity for Li Deng to die, but after all, he is a member of the fourth grade, and his death in Yongshun will implicate the county commander and the generals, and it will also affect the people of the whole city." Never. ”

"Humph!" Xu Hao stopped, and finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to brutally set up the Jinyi Guard, and asked himself. Is it really good to not be a doctor?

Wu Jing sighed: "Childe's mood can be understood, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, as long as Gongzi reminds the Imperial History, who would dare to go against Gongzi for a faint official?" He will definitely be brought to justice. However, the new prefect is here, and it seems that it will be different from the old one, and everything that the old one did will be overthrown, but because the case has not been cancelled, the name is still in it, and it is a local green-skinned scoundrel. The officials and servants in the yamen can take the opportunity to come to blackmail, and even if they go home, they have to move an inch, and they only hope that the son can help. ”

"I see." Xu Hao sighed. Immediately ordered Li Dong to hold his name post, explain the cancellation of the case by the new prefect, and promise to protect them.

Looking at the chaos outside the city gate, Xu Hao finally felt very relieved. At this point, the matter in Hunan has basically ended, although it has not been satisfactory, but it is not satisfactory. With him supervising the Criminal Department, the lascivious political envoy Wang Babu and Li Deng and others will not have a good time, and even if they do not lose their lives, they will also lose their official positions, and for the officials, this may be a hundred times more uncomfortable than killing them.

After all, Xu Hao also has his own concerns, as a minister, it is impossible to do everything as he wants, otherwise he would not have been hidden in the people from the first day he arrived in Hunan.

The New Year is less than a month away, Xu Hao's heart is like an arrow, but he promised Cuicui that he went to the river ferry at the moment.

As soon as he came over, he found Cuicui looking confused, squatting in the vegetable garden in a daze, and the old man's face was half distressed and half proud.

When I asked, I learned that it was not only the eldest of the Xiang family who dared to have a crush on Cuicui, but also the second child of the Xiang family.

Xiang Chuan asked the matchmaker to tell the eldest son about his relatives and the second son knew about it, and the second son said it angrily, so that the whole family knew what Xiang Tian was thinking.

This pair of brothers and sisters had already fallen in love with the granddaughter of the old man who supported the ferry at the same time a few years ago.

To say that this matter is not uncommon for Xiangxi people, the local saying "fire can be burned everywhere, water can flow everywhere, the sun and the moon can shine everywhere, and love can be reached everywhere." ”

Xiangxi people don't care much about their family background since ancient times, beautiful and capable girls, some are good young men, have hands and feet and good daughters-in-law, and are afraid that they won't make money? Therefore, the rich son of the Xiang family fell in love with a poor daughter who got a ferry, and it couldn't be such rare news. But people know the difficulties here, for whom the brothers should marry the girl as a daughter-in-law, do they have to have a bloody duel according to the rules of the mountain people?

Of course, the two Han brothers in this regard, should not be able to use the knife, there is no such tradition, but they will not give up their beloved, there is no so-called 'brother, friend and brother gong' such cowardly men in the city when faced with love and hatred, cowardly and ridiculous behavior, here is Xiangxi who dares to love and hate.

After listening to the old man's distress, Xu Hao couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, and couldn't help laughing, he wanted to make fun of Cuicui a few words, looking at her with a bitter little face, he couldn't bear it.

After getting along with Cuicui for several days, Xu Hao had already seen that the girl was ignorant and didn't know what love was.

No wonder her reaction was very strange that day, she stood on the ferry boat in a daze, and threw the beans in the water. It seems that she has a little sense that the brothers have a good impression of her, and she herself has a dim and dim affection for the two boys, which is not surprising, the Xiang brothers are rare and good sons, and they have a great attraction to the girl who is just starting to fall in love.

Now, what was originally a good thing for the two lovers has suddenly evolved into a confusing love triangle.

Xu Hao has a headache, he can't help with this matter at all, I'm afraid the kind Cuicui doesn't know what to do, she can't blame her, she has never expressed a good impression of any boy, nor has she passively accepted a little love.

Xu Hao had a hunch that if he couldn't let go of Cuicui, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to go home for a while.

What to do! (To be continued......)
