Li Xuedao looked at Xu He's face and saw that he looked indifferent. He thought he was annoyed, so he quickly shouted: "Is Dugante a dead man? Why don't you drive him out?"
Finally, a steward came, and one of them said: "Li Dushi, I'm not just waiting for him to cause trouble. This man is really big and tall, and even a few people can't hold him back!"
"presumptuous!"
Li Du said angrily: "Go and call the soldiers in. If he makes trouble again, seal his mouth!"
The big man heard this and said anxiously: "Shangguan, Shangguan, listen to me. I have been in Panheng in Beijing for half a year. I have run out of money. My wife and children are still waiting for me to go back to collect my salary and buy rice for cooking!"
"The document has been stuck in the Ministry of War for more than three months, and now it is stuck in the Experience Department. I am really desperate. I beg you, sir, to release my appointment document!"
"It's ridiculous. Everything must be done on a first-come, first-served basis. There are so many people in front of you, how can you do it first? It's only been three months, please wait!" Li Xuedao waved his sleeves and stopped looking at him.
The man was anxious. He waved his elbow to push away the people around him. He ran a few steps and came to Xu He. He grabbed Xu He's robe and knelt down on the ground. He kowtowed and said, "Please save me, sir." I am the youngest member of my family!"
Li Xuedao almost laughed because of him. This man was quite shrewd. Xu He was wearing ordinary clothes, but the leather belt was made of silver, the accessories were made of jade, and the ribbon was also made of red brocade with circling and flying carved patterns. At first glance, he looks like a fifth-rank official.
"Hurry and pull him away, don't hit the consort!" Li Xuedao quickly called for soldiers.
Xu He glanced at the big man indifferently, and then said: "Who is your name, where are you from, and why did you stop me!"
Li Xuedao scolded: "Asshole, do you know who this person is in front of you? This is Master Xu, the number one scholar in the dynasty, the emperor's consort, and the bachelor's degree scholar of Hanlin Academy. You dare to collide with him? You will suffer a lot today. I'll save you." Come and pester me!"
Xu He wanted to pretend to be a fool, but it seemed that Li Xuedao was the fool.
As a Shangguan myself, you, a small businessman from the seventh rank, actually interrupt me repeatedly?
However, now is not the time to make a fuss about the new official's appointment. Xu He said calmly: "Li Du, let me ask you something!"
Only then did Li Xuedao realize that something was wrong, and he quickly smiled: "Please, please!"
Xu He smiled at him and turned to look at the big man.
The big man didn't expect that the fifth-rank official he randomly grabbed was Xu He, who had recently become famous in the capital.
This person is amazing, maybe...
The big man hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Consort Xu, I am the Xiangyang guard military household under the Huguang Xingdu Division. My surname is Luo and my given name is Qingxiao!"
"Luo Qingxiao, what a good name, it makes the Qingxiao show off, and the Danqi turns into the Xiaxia. Your family is a scholar, right?"
Luo Qingxiao was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Returning to the Prince Consort, it is right that my family is hereditary to guard Xiangyang. All the men in the family need to study! I also have a name, Zixu!"
No wonder.
The judge is the military judge of the Dusi and Weisuo. All disputes arising in the Dusi and Weisuo are decided by him and finally submitted to the superiors for handling.
To understand the law, one must be literate. No wonder this person's name does not match his temperament.
This person just said that the hereditary position is the Xiangyang Guard of Huguang Xingdusi.
Xiangyang Guard sounds like a person, but it is actually the name of the guard.
There are two guards in Xiangyang City, one is the Xiangyang Guard, and the other is the Xiangyang Guard.
But these two guards belong to the same Dusi.
The Xiangyang Guards belong to the Huguang Dusi, while the Xiangyang Guards belong to the Huguang Xingdusi.
What is the difference between Dusi and Xingdusi?
It can only be said that there is no difference, it is an artificial inconsistency in authority.
Generally, Xingdusi is located in important coastal and border defense areas.
There are a lot of troops here. If so many soldiers and horses are controlled by one team, the court will definitely be worried, so...
The provinces with Xingdusi include Shanxi, Fujian, Huguang, Shaanxi and Sichuan.
Among them, Xiangyang ranks among the best in the world, so of course it must be arranged.
Xu He then asked: "Why are you making such a fuss?"
"Reporting back to Prince Consort, the villain is from a poor family. He finally collected the money to go to Beijing to take up the post. After arriving in the capital, he thought that it would be done in half a year at most. Who knows that half a year has passed, because the villain's money is used by the Ministry of War. It’s all gone, come here…”
"You scoundrel, don't use the Ministry of War's tricks on us. Our experience department will deal with it as soon as it comes. We will never shirk blame or ask for excuses. Don't make random speculations!" Li Xuedao didn't expect that on the first day! The reputation of the Experience Department was ruined in front of Xu He, and his face turned red!
"I didn't lie, you villain. I invited your Shuban Liu to dinner yesterday, and he told me!"
"nonsense!"
"presumptuous!"
"nonsense!"
"Consort, please don't listen to this lunatic!"
…
When the people around heard this, they started to curse.
"I'm not talking nonsense..." Luo Qingxiao argued loudly.
Xu He waved his hand to make everyone stop, and then said with a straight face to Luo Qingxiao: "Don't make random guesses. The Experience Department is the yamen of the imperial court. Such scandals may happen from time to time, but you can't just run into something." You feel that others are harming you and deliberately delaying you!"
"Your Excellency is wise!"
"The prince-in-law's words make sense!"
"He won the top prize after all!"
Li Xuedao also laughed and said: "Consort, there is no need to talk nonsense with him, just beat him out with a soldier's stick!"
At this time, a dozen armored and armed soldiers had already poured into the courtyard.
When Luo Qingxiao heard this, he stood up in great disappointment, looked at Xu He for a while, then shook his head and said: "My dear, I'm sorry for you, I have no ability, no money..."
"Let's go, why are you crying!"
"Get out of here!"
"What bad luck!"
There were shouts and curses from the people in the Experience Department all around, and the soldiers swarmed up, took Luo Qingxiao and dragged him out.
Xu He didn't look at him anymore, but bowed his hands to everyone and said, "Okay, everyone, please go back. If you have time, I'll invite you all to have a gathering!"
"Ouch! Thank you, Prince Consort!"
"Mr. Xu, you're too polite. It's up to us, our subordinates, to invite you!"
Xu He smiled, said goodbye to everyone and got into the carriage.
As soon as he got in the car, he whispered to Ding Ze: "Go and bring Luo Qingxiao to the house in a while... No, bring him to the Luocheng house sent by the King of Shu! Not the place where Tan Zili and the others live!"
Ding Ze surrendered and obeyed.
Here, after Xu He left, Wang Xuedao arrived in front of a courtyard in three steps and two steps at a time. He came to the door and clicked the knocker, and was quickly led in.
After a while, a person appeared from behind the screen in front of Wang Xuedao: "How are you? Are you leaving?"
"gone!"
"What did I ask you?"
"It's just some ordinary questions. He doesn't know anything about our Governor's Mansion! He doesn't even know what the experience department does!"
"By the way, there's more..."
Wang Xuedao told what happened to Luo Qingxiao just now.
The man nodded: "That person named Luo was the one I lured here on purpose!"
"Liu Shuban?"
The man ignored him and said to Wang Xuedao: "Watch him closely from now on. If he wants to see the account book, he will not give it to you! If you can't survive it, you know what to say!"
"As you command!"
"Well, let's get down!"
