"Let's see who dares!" This is what Xu He said, a bit stern and shy!
"Who dares!" This is what County Magistrate Li said. He is eager to save the students!
"Stop!" The person who spoke was wearing regular clothes, but had a pair of official boots on his feet. He was obviously an official.
"Bold!" There was another person, wearing a straight jacket, following behind the man wearing official boots. It was after Hu Baihu saw him that his expression changed drastically and he became frightened.
When Xu Dai saw everyone, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Although he had served as an eighth-rank official like Teruma, he was still highly respected in his hometown and clan.
But after all, he only became a minor official because of his father's influence. In front of a second-ranked Jinshi like County Magistrate Li, his momentum was naturally weaker.
But he also felt that he had an older brother who had stepped down from the position of minister, and he didn't want to be too humble in front of a seventh-grade county magistrate.
So the whole person is the same as the fat man just now, neither advancing nor retreating. In short, it is very embarrassing.
After finally regaining his composure, he stepped forward and said to the junior Li Zhijie, "Your Excellency, County Li!"
Just three words, nothing more to say after saying hello.
Xu He was embarrassed for him.
Fortunately, Li Zhijie didn't take it seriously. Instead, he was very polite to him for Xu Song's sake: "It turns out it's Duke Taiqiu. I'm so polite to you!"
After saying that, he no longer looked at Xu Dai. Instead, he turned to look at Xu He and said, "What's going on? I just asked you to study at home and stop running around. Why did you cause trouble again!"
Anyone can see that our magistrate is scolding his disciples on the surface, but his words are full of protection.
When Xu Luan saw this, he felt extremely sad. He was a boy who had passed the Taoist examination, but the county magistrate had never even looked at him. How virtuous and capable was this little eldest son? How could he win the favor of the county magistrate?
The more he thought about it, the more bitter he became, and finally he took a step forward, passed Xu He, came to the crowd and said to County Magistrate Li: "Your Excellency, my uncle Xu Song and my father Xu Dai have met their old parents!"
Although Li Zhijie was only a seventh-grade county magistrate, giving face to the Xu family did not mean that he had to give in to a junior. Faced with Xu Luan's self-introduction, he was a little confused. He just nodded lightly, asked a few words and then went through it. .
Xu Luan originally thought that as the legitimate son of the eldest son of the Xu family, Li Zhijie would definitely be more affectionate towards him than towards Xu He. Who would have thought...
Seeing that they had finished speaking, Xu He told the whole story about Hu Baihu.
Li Zhijie nodded while listening, then turned to look at the man with official boots next to him, cupped his hands and said: "Brother Zhang, this is beyond the control of a small county. It just so happens that you are also responsible for organizing and preparing troops. Look..."
As soon as these words came out, all the officials and gentry present looked at the man in official boots in surprise.
Organizing and preparing the military is a part-time job in the country. There are many officials with this kind of part-time job, but based on the recent news that Zhang Bingxian of Haiphong Road is about to take office, the person in front of him should be Zhang Jingxian and Zhang Bingxian.
The so-called Haiphong Road was actually just a kind of dispatch in the Wei Dynasty. For example, the Zhang Jingxian in front of him was appointed as the Inspector General, and he had the rank of fifth rank.
Zhang Jingxian was also divided into the Huaiyang Coastal Defense Road, and his headquarters was in Hailing.
However, the power of Haiphong Road is not controlled by the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard is just a matter of affiliation, and they have the right to independently submit reports and go directly to Tianting.
So what exactly does Haiphong Road control?
He manages coastal defense, trains land and sea officers and soldiers, and prepares food and pay. All piers, forts, ships, and equipment are under his supervision.
If an officer or soldier of the guard station commits adultery and commits crimes while in office, he will be punished by constitutional order...
The responsibilities of Haiphong Road alone can cover a whole wall, but only the above one is enough.
Zhang Bingxian, who had just taken office, had not even gone to the Yamen when he encountered hundreds of households in the guard station under his rule doing this.
Of the so-called three things a new official takes office, this is the first one.
Zhang Jingxian looked at Hu Baihu coldly, then turned to the man wearing a straight jacket and said, "Wang Lieqianhu, why don't you take down this scum for me, whose brother died and took in his sister-in-law?"
It turns out that the man wearing a straight jacket is the local Qianhu Wang Lie who guards Qianhu Station.
He looked at his subordinate with a gloomy face, and he wanted to tear him alive. How long had it been? He had repeatedly ordered Zhang Bingxian to come today, so everyone restrained themselves.
But Hu Baihu turned a deaf ear to his words and did such a thing. Didn't this give him the impression of being lax in front of Zhang Bingxian?
"Why are you still standing there? Take this donkey-headed and dog-brained thing away!" When Wang Lie got angry, he even spoke out his hometown dialect.
Hu Baihu was completely panicked now: "Master Qianhu, Master Qianhu, it's unfair, it's unfair!"
"Don't I know whether your mother-in-law is unjust or not? This officer is preparing to... Oh, yes, to collect evidence. You are not afraid of death and jumped out on your own! You are the only one who can blame me for falsely accusing someone of being a bandit, mom. of!"
Wang Lie was really angry. He cursed and waved his hands to get this thing away.
The filthy words spoken by these thousand households [Donkey and Dog Mother] immediately made the scholars around them, such as Zhang Jingxian and Li Zhijie, frown.
When Wang Lie saw this, he realized that this was not the yamen where he guarded thousands of households, but there were some civil servants around him. Thinking of this, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Master Bingxian, Mr. Li County, I'm sorry Ha, Lao Wang, I’m just a rough guy.”
Logically speaking, the Chief of Qianhu in the Great Wei Wei was also a fifth-rank official, on the same level as Zhang Jingxian, let alone a seventh-rank county magistrate. However, since the middle of the dynasty, civil servants have had the power to participate in the military affairs. The generals don't have many battles to fight, so naturally they have less power to speak.
After that, military generals had no choice but to curry favor with civilian officials if they wanted to secure their positions. As time went by, this situation intensified.
Although Zhang Jingxian frowned, he gave Wang Lie some face. He didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Xu He with interest and said, "You are a young gentleman who is familiar with the "Laws of the Great Wei". Do you have any fame?"
Hearing this, Li Zhijie smiled and told the story about Xu He being named as the head of the case just now.
Zhang Jingxian was also born as a Jinshi and was very close to scholars. When he heard that Xu He touched his head on a pillar and died to clarify his ambition, he asked curiously: "It's interesting. You didn't think about it at the time. You only have one life. If you stay alive, you may not know the future." Can you still wash away your grievances?”
Xu He heard the words and said seriously: "Don't be afraid of being shattered into pieces. You must keep your innocence in the world."
As soon as these two sentences were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed.
Zhang Jingxian's entire body turned to stone on the spot, and he chanted repeatedly: "Don't be afraid of being shattered into pieces, you must leave your innocence in the world. You must leave your innocence in the world... You must leave your innocence in the world!"
Li Zhijie was so excited that he couldn't help himself. Looking at his student, the love in his eyes almost melted Xu He.
The fat man named Feng opened his mouth wide, and when he looked at Xu He, his eyes seemed as if he wanted to swallow him whole.
Xu He originally quoted Yu Shaobao's "Song of Lime" casually, but after he said it and looked at everyone's reaction, he suddenly woke up.
Well, it turns out that the Ming Dynasty in time and space no longer exists in this world.
Naturally, there won't be any earthen forts or any changes to seize the door.
Zhang Jingxian looked Xu He up and down with excitement and said, "Does this poem have the first half?"
Xu He nodded and chanted:
Thousands of hammers carved out the mountains,
The fire burns as if it were idle.
Not afraid of being shattered into pieces,
To remain innocent in this world.
"Okay!" Zhang Jingxian took Xu He's hand and said, "I lead the way for the number one scholar, and this poem should make it clear!"
"Wow"...
Everyone was stunned by the words of the new Haiphong Dao Zhang Bingxian.
