"Leave Zhongmu County."
These words came out of the chief clerk's mouth.
"This is impossible." After hearing this, the Zhongmu County Magistrate looked disappointed and laughed at himself, "As the magistrate of Zhongmu County, others can leave Zhongmu County, but I cannot leave. Even if I escape from Zhongmu County, the court will I will not let this officer and his family go."
If he could abandon the city and flee, he wanted to abandon the city and flee Zhongmu County as early as the fall of Xingyang.
The chief clerk on the side took a step forward and whispered: "In the past, the Mingfu could not leave Zhongmu County, but it is different now. Governor Yang is in Zhongmu County. The Mingfu can leave with Governor Yang, even if the imperial court Even if I know, I can’t say anything.”
"This," Zhongmu County Magistrate frowned and said, "Although the Governor will not stay in Zhongmu County for a long time, it may not be that easy for me to leave with the Governor."
After hearing this, the chief clerk spread his hands and said: "Then there is no other way. The Mingfu wants to leave Zhongmu County. This is the only chance. Once Governor Yang leaves Zhongmu County, the Mingfu can only stay and deal with what is coming. Rebels in Zhongmu County.”
The Zhongmu County Magistrate looked struggling.
"Ming Mansion, why don't you think about it again? I'll go and prepare a sedan for Governor Yang first." The chief secretary asked.
The Zhongmu County Magistrate waved his hand and motioned for him to get busy.
The chief clerk turned his head and said to Dian Shi beside him: "You stay here with the Ming Mansion."
After saying that, he walked away.
There are sedan chairs in the government office, and there is no shortage of sedan bearers. As for horses, there is no shortage of horses. There are several good horses in the horse stables of the government office.
The things Yang He wanted were quickly prepared and placed in the front office.
After doing all this, the chief clerk returned to Houya alone.
When he came outside the Houyamen, he found that Dian Shi was the only one here, so he asked: "Where is the Ming Mansion? Why aren't I with you?"
"Mingfu went inside to accompany Governor Yang." Dian Shiyang pointed to the back office where the door was closed.
The chief clerk nodded and said: "Everything that Mingfu told me has been taken care of. I'll go in and talk to Mingfu."
With that said, he stretched out his hand to push the door in front of him.
But before he could reach the door, the door in front of him was opened from the inside, and the magistrate of Zhongmu County was about to walk out from inside with a radiant face.
After coming out, he closed the door again with both hands.
He immediately turned around, looked at the chief clerk behind him and asked in a low voice: "Have you completed everything that the supervisor told you?"
"Everything has been prepared. The sedan chair and horses are at the front office, ready for the supervisor's use at any time," the chief clerk said.
Hearing this, the Zhongmu County Magistrate nodded with satisfaction and said: "You did a good job, but don't tell the supervisor yet. I will tell the supervisor personally later."
"Yes." The chief clerk nodded.
The magistrate of Zhongmu County walked past the chief clerk outside the door with square steps. When he reached Dian Shi, he suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at the two people and said, "I am leaving Zhongmu County with the governor to go to Kaifeng." , Zhongmu County will be left to the care of you two for the time being."

When Dianshi heard this, he was about to say something, but the chief clerk on the side stretched out his hand to hold him back.
Seeing the chief secretary, he said humbly: "Even if the Ming Dynasty goes to Kaifeng with the governor, the two lower officials will definitely take good care of Zhongmu County for the Ming Dynasty."
"Very good." The magistrate of Zhongmu County was very satisfied with the chief registrar's answer and promised, "Don't worry, you two. As long as you protect Zhongmu County for me, I will definitely not miss out on the benefits of you two."
"My official will definitely remember what Mingfu said." The chief secretary assured again.
Magistrate Zhongmu nodded with satisfaction and walked away with square steps.
After he walked away, Dianshi who stayed behind couldn't help complaining to the chief clerk beside him: "Why don't you let me say what I said?"
"What can you change by saying it? It will have no effect at all except to make the Ming Mansion evil." The chief clerk said.
Dian Shi said with a stinky face: "The rebels are coming. There are not many soldiers and horses in Zhongmu County. How can we defend Zhongmu County? If you ask me, you shouldn't give him any advice and let him leave Zhongmu County." County opportunity.”
"It's good to go, it's good to go!" The chief clerk smiled and patted Dianshi's upper arm.
When Dian Shi saw that the chief clerk could still laugh, his face darkened and he said: "You can still laugh. As soon as the Ming Dynasty leaves, take our two top bags. If you ask me, you should tell the Ming Dynasty at that time and let him take the lead." Let us both leave together."
Ever since he learned that the rebels were coming to Zhongmu County, he had been thinking about how to leave Zhongmu County.
He was an official in Zhongmu County and was not from a formal imperial examination. Therefore, even if he defended Zhongmu County, there was no possibility of promotion, so he did not want to be buried with Zhongmu County.
"What are you talking about in your sleep in broad daylight?" the chief clerk said, "Who are you and me, and what is the identity of Supervisor Yang? How could we possibly take the two of us away? In the eyes of this Supervisor, we are both worthless." no."
As he spoke, he glanced at the back office where the door was closed.
Dian Shi said unwillingly: "You have the most ideas, but you should think of a way. Do you really want to help the imperial court defend Zhongmu County? Is it worth it?"
"Don't worry, I know what's going on, and I won't trick you." The chief secretary reassured Dian Shi, and then said, "Let's go and see what Ming Mansion has done, and see if we can be of any help."
Dianshi said with an ugly face: "He abandoned Zhongmu County and ran away, and you still want to help him. I really don't understand you."
Although he complained, he still accompanied the chief clerk to find the magistrate of Zhongmu County.
As soon as the two people arrived at the backyard of the Yamen, before entering through the moon gate, they saw servants carrying boxes one by one and carrying them out.
"Hurry up, hurry up, take all these things with you, don't leave anything behind." The voice of the magistrate of Zhongmu County floated out from the yard.
Norihi's face turned darker when he saw the scene in front of him.
On the contrary, the chief clerk next to him showed no change in his expression.
After a few servants carrying things came out of the Moon Gate, he walked into the courtyard.
"Mingfu, you are preparing to move!" The chief secretary saw the Zhongmu County Magistrate in the yard directing people to do things, and walked forward quickly.
When he heard the voice, the Zhongmu County Magistrate turned around and saw the two people and said, "Why are you two here? How is the Superintendent's situation?"
"The supervisor has not left the house since he was in the back office." The chief clerk replied first, then looked at the busy servants around him and said, "Mingfu, you don't want to take away so many things, do you?"
After hearing this, the Zhongmu County Magistrate showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, and defended himself: "I am afraid that the supervisor will need something, so I thought of bringing more."
He blamed Yang He for everything, and he was embarrassed to say that he had no intention of returning to Zhongmu County.
"Even if Governor Yang is in need, Mingfu doesn't need to bring so many things." The chief secretary said, "You have brought so many things in Mingfu. Anyone can guess what you are going to do at a glance. In case the Governor What should I do if I see that Ming Fu has brought so much luggage and suddenly regrets it and doesn’t want to take Ming Fu to Kaifeng?”
Hearing this, the Zhongmu County Magistrate was stunned and asked hesitantly: "Then what do you think we should do?"
