Thinking that this high-ranking official from the capital has arrived in Yu'an City, how can he not go to greet him?
An official asked worriedly: "Prefect Cen, isn't it good for us to be like this? He is a high-ranking official. If we treat him better, he might even help us."
After hearing what the official said, several officials around him agreed.
"yes."
"How about we go and greet him, Magistrate Cen."
After listening to the words of the officials in front of him, the prefect Cen Yongchang who was sitting on the chair sighed. After thinking for a moment, he stood up, looked at these officials, and said: "Then. I’ll listen to you. Put down what you’re doing and go to the yamen gate to greet me.”
After listening to the words of the prefect Cen Yongchang, these officials walked out one after another.
After a while, I saw that almost all the officials from the government office were standing at the entrance of the government office.
This face given to me is already enough.
However, I haven't seen the carriage or people of Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, for a long time. Pedestrians passing by the gate of Fuyamen always glance at the officials of Fuyamen and then leave.
Looking at the high official who had not been seen for a long time under such a strong sun, some officials began to become suspicious.
"Prefect Cen, it's been so long and I still haven't seen anyone. Could this news be wrong?" an official asked.
How could the prefect Cen Yongchang know that his master had been ordered by him to send his family to a hidden place? He had no one he trusted to inquire about the information. As for whether the information was accurate or not, he certainly didn't know.
Looking at these officials, thinking that the news came from General Judge Li Da, Magistrate Cen looked at him.
"Li Tongpan, I remember that you were the one who told me this news. Where is this person?" Magistrate Cen asked.
Looking at the look from Magistrate Cen and the figure he hadn't seen for a long time, Tongjian Li Da had already begun to doubt whether the news was accurate.
But the prefect Cen Yongchang had to answer what he said. The general judge Li Da replied: "Prefect Cen, I listened to the housekeeper at home, and what he said is not false. Maybe the censor of Zuodu has What's the delay?"
After listening to his words, these government officials waited with him.
Waiting and waiting, in a blink of an eye, the morning has passed. The legs and feet of the officials standing in front of the government office were a little numb.
Looking at the already not very bright sun, the prefect Cen Yongchang was already a little bit uninterested in waiting.
"What time is it now?" Magistrate Shun Yongchang asked.
The official who was sure of the time came back: "Go back to the prefect, it should be the time of application now."
As soon as they heard Shen Shi, the officials standing in front of the government office suddenly felt hungry.
If the official hadn't said this, they probably wouldn't have known that it had been a long time since dinner time.
An official lost confidence, and he was not the official involved in using the maritime ban to make profits. Seeing this, he said impatiently: "Li Tongpan, could your news be wrong? It has been so long and there is no trace of this person. Isn't this delaying our efforts?"
As soon as the official said this, several officials on the side expressed their opinions.
"That's right. How come you are the only one who knows about this government office, and why don't the others know about it? What a waste of time." After saying that, regardless of what the prefect Cen Yongchang thought, he saw the official turning towards the government office. Went in.
As soon as he left, several officials followed him.
Okay, now, the official standing outside the government office can be said to be the criminal in this case. Such a big thing happened and alarmed the court. These were the only officials who could listen to the words of the prefect Cen Yongchang. Those officials who left were such good officials.
"Shen Tongzhi." Magistrate Cen Yongchang called out.
"The official is here." The person who replied was Shen Tongzhi.
He is about the same age as the prefect Cen Yongchang, but he is a few years younger than the prefect Cen Yongchang. He is slightly fat, has some white hair on his hair, and has a lot of wrinkles on his face. There is also a mole, wearing this purple official uniform, looking at the prefect Cen Yongchang with an unknown face.
Shen Tongzhi's name is Shen Jizhi.
"Do you think we have to wait or not?" Magistrate Shun Yongchang asked.
After thinking for a moment, looking at the sky and the passers-by outside, fellow acquaintance Shen Jizhi replied: "Prefect Cen, I think it's better not to wait until I see you. I don't know how long we can wait. Let's go back and take care of things." The official duties of the yamen are also good."
After hearing these words and looking at the agreement in the eyes of these officials, Magistrate Cen said: "Okay. Then we won't wait any longer. Let's all go back to handle official business."
"good."
These officials ended up waiting alone.
After returning to the yamen, Magistrate Cen sat on a chair, looking at the pile of things in front of him, thinking: Since Zuodu Yushi has not yet come, it is better to deal with some official business, so that by chance, he can see him It's good to look busy.
Thinking about this, I saw that Magistrate Cen was working hard on the official duties in front of him.
However, none of them knew that Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu from the imperial court, was far away in front of them, in the prison of the Yamen.
At this time, it was the time when the prisoners in the prison were finishing their meals.
At the beginning of the corridor in the prison, I saw a dining car parked on this corridor.
This dining cart has two round wooden sticks, and behind it is a large and thick handle. The main body of the grain cart is a large rectangular groove. It is said to be a groove, but it actually looks a bit like a large ink wood. The remodeled bathtub is generally made.
The rectangular groove is full of gruel, and the porridge is mixed with enough water. Only the basket of steamed buns on the side is considered reasonable. As for whether the steamed buns are mixed with anything, I don’t know. Got it.
Several prison guards were busy around the dining car.
Standing among the jailers, the one who is neither fat nor thin is the prison leader in this prison.
His surname is Cen and his given name is Guan. Looking at his appearance, he is about thirty years old now.
Seeing that everything was ready, the cell leader Cen Guan called out: "It's time to eat! It's time to eat! Please be quiet!"
I saw a jailer pushing the dining cart, one jailer holding a spoon in his hand, another jailer holding a basket of steamed buns, and the prison head Cen Guan was touching the scabbard on his waist with his right hand, following behind the three of them.
Everywhere they went, the dining car stopped. A jailer took a ladle from the dining cart and poured it into the ditch set in front of the cell, while another jailer poured the steamed buns into the ditch. The slot was put away.
Speaking of the trench that was placed, I have to say that this person is quite smart.
There are about six or seven trenches in each cell. Each of the six or seven trenches is divided into two. One of them is currently used to store porridge, and the other trench is used to store steamed buns. of.
As soon as the food was put into the trench, the food rolled down, shuttled into the cell, and reached the trench at the bottom. The prisoners inside drank from this trench.
This design is quite humane. It not only makes the prisoners who feed them less tired, but also makes the prisoners inside know a truth. This truth can only be understood after living there for a long time.
Everywhere he went, he stopped to put a place. In this way, he soon reached the cell at the back.
Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and his steward Yin Xing were locked in the cell at the back. At this time, the two of them still had a piece of cloth stuffed in their mouths and their hands were still tied.
Seeing the food coming here, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and Yin Xing, the steward, hurried forward. They couldn't speak, so they stretched out their hands from the gap in the fence. Keep waving.
This scene happened to be seen by the cell leader Cen Guan.
While the two guards were feeding into the trench, the cell leader came up, took out a bundle of keys from his body, stood in front of the cell door, and searched for the cell key. After finding it, he held it with one hand. He held the iron lock of the cell door tightly and opened it. After some manipulation, the door opened.
Seeing such a person walking in, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, showed a happy smile on his face, and the steward Yin Xing on the side was also a little happy.
Several prisoners in the same cell were busy eating late.
The cell leader, Cen Guan, took a step forward, took off the cloth that was stuffed in the mouths of the two men with one hand, pulled up the knife in the scabbard at his waist and broke the tied rope with a few clicks.
