Zhou Yu's attitude towards the vassals in Luohe Road is not to say that he is a son of a noble family, but he is a little arrogant.
But I really look down on those people who are greedy for petty gains.
I heard that the officials who belong to the father's faction in Luohe Road like to work for the higher ranks and make money privately, but not many are handed over to the father.
Unlike those vassals of Jiangnan Dao, who like to play it safe and rely on their abilities to gain wealth.
However, Luohe Road is close to the Guannai Road. In addition, my father has been favored for a long time. The positions of familiar officials in the capital have changed or new disciples have joined. Most of them choose this Taoist government near the capital so that they can be promoted back to the capital. Therefore, the number of vassals in Luohe Road is , more than Jiangnan Road.
After opening the letter, Zhou Yu took a look at the signature again.
"Letter from Pingxian County Magistrate Huang Nanming."
A neither big nor small figure.
No wonder this letter reached him.
This is his first contact with Luohe Road affairs. For such a moderate person, there should be no big deal.
Zhou Yu thought this, and after reading the main text of the letter, his pupils shrank suddenly and his breathing became irregular.
Father is confused!
You can wait until Ning Wuhuang comes to the capital, and then instigate a few local talents to find out about Ning Wuhuang's true identity. Based on the idea that literature is not the first and martial arts is not the second, there are many talents in the capital who are dissatisfied with this Jinling poetry fairy. .
In addition, he is a guest from afar, and the guest does as he pleases. When the talent in the capital wants to challenge him, Ning Wuyou will never refuse to compete in order to protect his reputation.
At most, Grandpa Huang was worried that the Jinling Poet Immortal would run out of inspiration and might try to curb him after a few competitions. But it was precisely because of this that Ning Wuchang had to show off his true abilities.
This was done too hastily!
Moreover, Huang Nanming was just a small county magistrate in the lower county of Luohe Road. He teamed up with a well-known and famous talent in Luohe Road to challenge him, and used his reputation to question his reputation to force Ning Wuhuang to take action.
Endless troubles!
"Your Majesty, is there anything written in the letter that needs to be dealt with?"
"none."
Zhou Yu rubbed his forehead, which was throbbing with worry, and forced himself to calm down.
This matter has been dealt with several times, and even if the executor knows that it was his father who ordered it, there is still room for change.
It would be fine if Huang Nanming handled the aftermath well. If he didn't handle it well and the emperor learned about it, the more he did, the more mistakes he would make. What he can do now is to discuss with his staff in advance what kind of reasons he should give to come. Deal with Grandpa Huang’s attacks and questioning.
My father cannot take the blame.
This is an opportunity for him to show off.
"I have read the letter and told the messenger to stop acting rashly and let Ning Wuyan and the others reach the capital safely."
Don't make any more trouble and let Prince Jin's Mansion wipe your ass.
After the guard who delivered the letter resigned, Zhou Yu rubbed his sore eyes and saw Zhou Ruqing coming back with a sympathetic look on his face, without asking carefully about his mother and concubine's condition.
"Go and tell the kitchen to make a bowl of refreshing soup, and then ask Mr. Su to discuss the matter."
"yes."
…
On the open ground.
Thirteen Ping County government officials were tied tightly like rice dumplings and gathered into a pile near the bonfire.
Their noses were bruised and their faces were bruised, and they all looked very embarrassed. They still looked as arrogant and domineering as they did when they were about to conduct a search.
But there are still a few people who hold on to hope.
"You dare to resist the officials. When the county magistrate comes, you will all be put in jail!"
"Come on, Ping County's prison can't accommodate you. You can still go to the surrounding county offices and let the entire Luohe Road know why your Ping County government officials were beaten up because of what caused public outrage."
Wearing the uniform of a government official, he has the status of an official.
Ordinary people really don't dare to do anything to them.
But Zhuang Shicheng and Shang Shan who were used this time were from the martial arts world, and those who surrounded the government officials were students or talents who had at least passed the scholar examination.
People in the world have always used force to break the ban, but the scholar who passed the exam did not have to kowtow and kneel before the official. Ning Wuyan was not worried that Magistrate Huang would use this as a threat when he came.
on the contrary.
He wished that County Magistrate Huang would take all the people involved in the incident back to the Pingxian County Government Office along with him, so as to make the matter even bigger and make the whole world aware of it.
Just thinking about it.
There was the sound of rapid horse hooves on the road as they came.
Ning Wuyi leaned against the ground and listened, his face became solemn.
"Everyone, be prepared. There are about forty or fifty people coming. About ten people are riding, and the rest are running. However, the footsteps are heavy and there are crashing sounds while running. They should be armed."
Good guy.
Only then did Ning Wuhao find out that his third brother had the ability to distinguish objects by listening to sounds.
Forty or fifty people, indeed a lot.
He said to the nervous talents: "The unarmed and defenseless people stand back and let the capable people stand in front. I can understand everyone's desire to uphold justice, but we are just passing through Ping County. The goal is to go to the capital to participate in the competition, but don’t lose the big for the small.”
When you want to plan something, the biggest fear is that there is someone in the team who is too passionate and acts impulsively, bringing down the rhythm of the entire plan.
To deal with the local snakes in Ping County, one should not be eager for quick success. It is still necessary to deal with them for a while until a backer arrives, in order to eradicate this cancer.
Without help, just with enthusiasm, even if you stand on the side of justice and justice, you can't deal with Magistrate Huang like you deal with the government officials.
That was the imperial court official.
Only the larger court officials can govern.
The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and the government servants who were tied together struggled to stand up, but were kicked back by Ning Wuhu and fell back down.
Although they fell down hard, they could not hide the excitement on their faces.
"The county magistrate is here, you are dead!"
"If you dare to beat an official, you must be punished by the county magistrate!"
This group of government officials can only talk about howling on wheels, which is annoying to hear.
Ning Wuyang winked at Zhuang Shicheng.
"Shut them up."
"Very well, young master!"
Zhuang Shicheng picked up the hammer and was about to hit them on the head.
The officials were so frightened that they cried for mercy.
Before Ning Wuyan could stop him, Zhuang Shicheng smashed the hammer in front of them, making two holes. Then he found a few dark rags from nowhere and tore them into pieces according to the size of each person's population. Strips of cloth of various sizes were stuffed into the mouths of these government officials.
Um.
After blocking these people's mouths, it will be easier to talk.
Just as Ning Wuyan was thinking this, the cavalry team was getting closer and closer. When he saw clearly the official uniform worn by the leader, he said "Hey".
"Third brother, that doesn't seem to be the official uniform of the county magistrate, right?"
"This is the official uniform of the eighth-grade master register."
Since the embroidery patterns on the chief clerk's official uniform were similar to those on the government official's books, Ning Wuhu recognized them at a glance.
Chief registrar of Ping County?
According to the jurisdiction of Ping County, there are only about fifty government officials in the county.
There are about ten people tied up here, and the county chief registrar brought forty or fifty people with him. What about County Magistrate Huang?
Staying in Shang County alone to find the whereabouts of Zhang Zhida?
"I didn't expect that Magistrate Huang is very dedicated to his job."
Ning Wuyang joked to himself, and the bookkeeper had already reined in his horse and stopped ten feet away.
So far away?
Ning Wuyang really couldn't see that the other party had any anxious attitude, and it seemed like he was taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard. But the more this happened, the more confident the other party was. He quietly asked Zhuang Shicheng to prepare for them, and they could not let these later government servants put him in trouble. These dozen people took the opportunity to kidnap him.
At worst, it would be regarded as a dispute between Jianghu people and the government. After he came to settle it, he directly asked Zhuang Shicheng and the others to kidnap the Yamen servants as well.
Anyway, the government officials have beaten them, and the matter has become a big deal. If you still care about the consequences, just do it!
Everyone in the Ning family stared at Master Xu and his party with eager eyes.
Faced with the sudden tense situation, Mr. Xu, who was in his forties, stepped forward with a quick pace, smiling without saying a word.
"Hahaha, this is the famous Mr. Shi Xianning of Jinling, right? I've admired him for a long time, and I'm glad to meet him!"
