Master Xu reached out his hand.
That kind look didn't look like he was here to seek justice for the beaten government officials, but instead he came to greet Ning Wuyan.
This confused Zhuang Shicheng and others who were originally ready to take action.
It also left the monk Ning Wushuang, who was two feet tall, confused.
Who are you?
Looks so familiar?
In order to prevent the other party from deliberately getting closer, Ning Wuhuang also smiled but did not extend his hand.
He could see that the veins in the arms of the chief clerk were bulging due to the reins being tightened all the way, but his breath was even and his chassis was very stable. He looked like a practicing master at first glance.
If a gentleman does not set up a dangerous wall, he must beware of Huang County Magistrate sending an insignificant county clerk to interfere with his judgment, and he must not underestimate the enemy.
"Is the Registrar here to ask for someone from me?"
Ning Wuyang gestured to the dozen or so government servants beside the bonfire and smiled helplessly.
"They were indeed injured by the martyrs I recruited, but there was a reason for it, and this matter was done by knights and knights, so I couldn't get involved. Lord Registrar, you might as well wait until they have calmed down and then ask them what they need. Can we all sit down and have a good talk again?”
How bold was Ning Wuyan when he wanted to hit someone before.
At this time, he used the word "drag" very slowly.
Juxiang hasn't heard any news about Governor Han yet. As long as the people in Pingxian County do not take drastic actions, he still doesn't want to make things difficult for Governor Han and must preserve the dignity that the people in the government deserve.
Xu took a deep look at the bunched-up Ping County government officials, smiled playfully, and introduced himself: "Mr. Ning, I am not an official of Ping County. I am the Chief Secretary of Shang County. My surname is Xu. The Poet is from my clan." uncle."
ah? oh!
When Ning Wuyang suddenly realized this, he quickly reached out and grabbed Master Xu's hand that was about to retract, and shook it hard twice, with a smile on his face.
"Master Xu, I just said that you are very kind-hearted. It turns out that you are the nephew of Brother Xu."
The title "Brother Xu" made Master Xu's mouth twitch violently.
Facing the sixteen-year-old boy in front of him, who was a generation older than himself, Master Xu suddenly felt like he was inferior.
But he knew that his world-famous uncle from the Shiwang clan made friends regardless of age. As a result, he could no longer act like an elder, and the kindness on his face had lost a bit.
"Mr. Ning, I was helping Magistrate Huang to search and kidnap the eldest young master of the Zhang family, Zhang Zhida, the most talented man in Luohe. On the way, I heard that something happened here where a government servant was injured, so I came here to ask about the whole story. .”
in advance?
Ning Wuyan stopped chatting with Master Xu and told him what happened just now in an impartial manner.
By the time he finished speaking, Master Xu was extremely surprised.
He knew that the county government in Ping County was rotten, but he didn't expect that it was rotten to the core.
"How dare you want to seize a car of Ning's perfume in front of everyone and take it back to Ping County County Office for review, and then leave without telling when it will be returned?"
Chief Xu looked at the government officials.
Zhao Yamen and others, who had been eagerly waiting for someone from the county government to rescue them, would have retorted if their mouths had not been blocked.
But their mouths were stuffed with dirty rags and they couldn't say a word. In addition, the person who came was the chief registrar of Shang County, not one of their own.
At this time, they all drooped their heads like wilted autumn eggplants, avoiding Master Xu's sight.
With such a guilty conscience, no one could figure out what was going on.
Chief Xu snorted coldly and bowed to Zhuang Shicheng, who was standing in front of all the government officials: "Heroes, what these government officials have done is indeed outrageous and resentful, but this is something that the government needs to deal with, and it has nothing to do with the heroes. Relations, I want to take these government officials who have committed crimes back to Shang County County Government to deal with them. As long as the evidence is conclusive, they will be brought to justice!"
"No."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Wuyan spoke calmly and retorted.
Master Xu looked at Ning Wuyan, who was the first to speak, in surprise, and then at the honest knights and knights, thinking that some time ago, the Ning family's recruitment of people was widely spread.
I still don’t understand.
What these wanderers do depends entirely on Ning Wuyan's instructions.
In other words, the one who beat and kidnapped people was Ning Wuchang, and the one who stopped him now was also Ning Wuchang. If he couldn't pass Ning Wuchang's test, the thirteen Ping County officials would have to be tied up here today.
Chief Xu thought of Huang Nanming who was about to follow him, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Ning, don't you believe me?"
"Even if I don't believe you, I still believe in Mr. Xu's character. However, this case is not only about these government officials trying to rob a truck of perfume, but also involves a major case of top-down exploitation of passing merchants in Ping County!"
Ning Wuyan pointed at the merchants who had gathered around after hearing the news, and announced loudly to the shocked Master Xu.
"I not only want to seek an explanation for what happened tonight, but I also want to seek justice for the visitors and a better tomorrow for the people of Ping County!"
"Luohe Road is located in the Central Plains and has fertile terrain. Especially since the Yellow River changed its course in the past few years, there is a fertile river to the north of Ping County. Before I came here, I wanted to take a boat from Ping County to enjoy the scenery of my motherland. Beijing, who would have thought that the convoy leader had no plans to pass through Ping County, and was stationed not far outside the county tonight."
"Even those of us who don't often travel to Luohe Road know to avoid Ping County. I didn't know the reason at first, but I understand now. Ping County is occupied by officials who are plundering the flesh and blood of merchants. Who dares to come? These officials and servants are so fat that they have never thought about the plight of the people when Ping County is in disrepute."
Ning Wuyan's words made Master Xu fall into deep thought.
In fact, he had already heard about Ping County.
But no one expected it to be so serious.
No wonder the taxes in Ping County have been decreasing every year since Huang Nanming took office. According to Huang Nanming, it was because after the Yellow River changed its course, many people were worried that their fertile fields would be flooded, so everyone abandoned their fields and moved there.
Someone was sent to review it, and the result was the same.
Now it seems that it is Huang Nanming who deliberately made excuses to disguise his real purpose of eating and taking cards.
"Mr. Ning, I can understand your feelings, but after I take over this matter, your charge of beating a Yamen servant will be treated lightly. You know, beating a Yamen servant for no reason will result in a fine of five taels of silver and fifty canes. In serious cases, The offender will also be detained in jail for ten days."
Master Xu is by no means a timid person.
But he knew that Ning Wuyan's trip to the capital was more important. He didn't know how long it would take to investigate the matter in Ping County, report it to the authorities, and then impose penalties.
He could only appease Ning Wuhuang and continue heading north and west, and he would take care of the rest.
"I know that Master Xu is a person who is eager for justice and loves justice, and I thank you for your support, but I cannot do what you want in this matter."
Ning Wuyan bowed his hands. Hearing the movement in front of him, he raised his head and looked towards the lit torch, his eyes extremely determined.
"Whether it's a fine of silver, a cane, or imprisonment, I accept it. But since I'm in charge of this matter in Ping County, I can't let it go half way."
Some things need to be slowed down.
But there are some things, that is, a one-shot deal. The longer it is delayed, the more forces are involved. In the end, after weighing the pros and cons, the outcome of the matter loses its original intention.
His needs are simple.
