Snow covers the sky and the earth, the distant hazy trees, the villages with smoke drifting from the cooker, all covered in the sky and snow.
Boundless cold, there is a team of people braving the wind and snow difficult to move forward, at the head of a carriage, followed by a few people. Inside the carriage were Huang Zhendian and the shift workers, followed by the magistrates and the controlled Yang Dacheng and Zhu Pingan, and at the end was the mistress and the children she was leading.
“I’m sorry little brother, I’ve dragged you into this. When we get to the county court, I will make it clear and you can leave then. It’s just that, pity my wife and child.” Yang Dacheng limped on the snowy ground and apologetically said to Zhu Pingan.
Yang Dacheng had his hands tied with ropes by the magistrates, and looked at his wife and son who were following him with some heartache, and sighed.
Yang Dacheng and Zhu Pingan were ordered to be taken away by Huang Zhendian, Yang Dacheng’s daughter-in-law took the initiative to follow, not worried about Yang Dacheng, and followed him to the magistrate’s office, so he could also testify to help her husband say a few words. As for the bear child, also voluntarily want to follow, the hostess also agreed to follow, also good to take care of.
“Woe is me, don’t be too upset, Brother Yang.” Zhu Pingan advised.
“Alas.” Yang Dacheng just sighed.
For Zhu Pingan’s comfort, Yang Dacheng was grateful but did not put much on his mind. With his judgement, this time, he is afraid that it is not good, this weasel is the most ruthless, alas, he just hates himself for not being able to pull him into a cushion, and he pities his own wife and children, if something happens to him, what should they do ah.
All the way to the wind and snow.
Yang Dacheng their village from the county is not too far, in the snow and wind in the snow about an hour or so it, into the county.
“Tongcheng County.”
Three words engraved on the wall of the county town were the name of this county, Tongcheng County. Tongcheng County and Huaining County belonged to the same Anqing Prefecture, only Tongcheng County was a bit further north. Tongcheng has a long history, prosperous literary style, the Ming Dynasty since the opening of this Xi’an, the number of jinshi, lifts, and the same belongs to the Anqing Prefecture of Waining, Qianshan, Taihu Lake, Susong, Wangjiang and other five counties jinshi and lifts compared to the sum, but also beyond more than double.
So. When Tongcheng Xia Luoming and other talents will be so arrogant.
After entering the county town, Zhu Pingan and Yang Dacheng were directly led in the direction of the county office by Huang Zaodan and the police.
The county government office was located on the north side of the county town, and once they arrived in front of the county government office, Huang Zhendian and the police officers became even more imposing.
The specification of the county government office was quite big. In front of the door a “Xuanhua” arching very imposing, the front of the plaque is “Tongcheng ancient rule” four words, meaning that Tongcheng County has a long history, good governance. “Xuanhua” means propaganda to educate the people. In the old days, the governor had to preach a bull under Xuanhua Square on every first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. The contents were generally about filial piety and respect for parents, unity with the township, law-abiding and tax-paying. Law-abiding and tax-paying, etc. Outside the county office gate on the left side, there are two stone monuments. The inscriptions are not clear.
The county yamen gate is three wide, the east side of the front half of the set “shouting drum” a drum for the people to hit the drum and set up.
Walked to the door, Yang Dacheng suddenly born a force, regardless of being tied hands, will go to the “shouting drum” that go to beat the drums of injustice.
“Damn, Yang cripple, you don’t want to drink wine, but to eat a penalty wine.” An officer grabbed Yang Dacheng’s arm and scolded fiercely.
“I’m going to beat the drum to call for justice. Please ask the county master to do justice.” Yang Dacheng shouted loudly.
“You think the county master is something you can see just because you want to see him, the county master has a lot of work to do, how can he have the time to see you, directly bring them into the prison.” Huang Zhendian stroked his eight-beard and instructed a few officers.
“Good le.” An officer answered, thought about it, and pulled out a dirty rag from his pocket, and stuffed it into Yang Dacheng’s mouth, and then pulled it inside the county office.
Most of the ancient prisons were located in the southwest of the county yamen, mostly inside the county yamen. Because the prison was located in the southwest of the lobby, it was called the South Prison.
“Dacheng.”
The mistress was heartbroken and wanted to follow her in, but she was blocked by the errand boy.
“This is not a place you can enter. Oh, if you want your husband and brother to come out sooner, go beg our Master Huang and you’ll be guaranteed a chance.”
The errand boy’s words made the mistress spit, and then led the child to the shouting drum, picking up the hammer and about to beat it.
“Ai ai ai. Stay away, this is not something you can touch.”
A duty officer who was looking at the gate of the county office went forward and stopped the hostess, then rudely drove her far away, not allowing her to touch the drum.
Hahaha.
The few servants who escorted Yang Dacheng laughed at this, really from the countryside, really think that the government office is vegetarian.
“Alright, take them to the dungeon and lock them up for now, we’ll report back to the county master when he has time.”
Huang Saving Point looked at Yang Dacheng with disdain and waved his hand, ordering the errand boys to quickly send Yang Dacheng and Zhu Pingan to the county court’s dungeon, then turning his head, he added to his mistress, “Sibling ah, if there’s anything you need to do, just come and find me, they all know where I am, just ask whoever you want. It’s not easy for you guys either, if I can help, I will naturally give a hand.”
“Go!”
The errand boy pushed and shoved Yang Dacheng towards the inside of the county courthouse, the other errand boy wanted to push Zhu Pingan yet, Zhu Pingan took the initiative to take two steps forward, and took the initiative to walk to the entrance of the county courthouse.
“Yohe, this nerd is full of obedience.”
The officer who wanted to push Zhu Ping An laughed at the situation, the other officers also made fun of Zhu Ping An, this nerd is afraid that he doesn’t know the power of the prison yet, when he enters the prison, there will be a time for him to cry.
“I want to see the county magistrate.”
In the eyes of the crowd, Zhu Pingan walked to the door and said to the official servant on duty at the door.
I want to see the county eunuch.
The crowd heard, laughed, this nerd still do not understand what just ah, this shouting drums are not you say knocking on the knock, but also said to see the county magistrate, really reading stupid brain.
Yang Dacheng is also a little helpless to look at Zhu Pingan, just now my daughter-in-law and I have tried, can not. Mistress holding the child far away from watching, Zhu Pingan’s behaviour is also the same is not good, and also a little worried, this little brother is really reading too much, do not know the reality of how dark.
“The county magistrate is something you say you can see, honestly go to your jail and stay there!”
The officer on duty at the door was familiar with Huang and the other officers, and as soon as Zhu Pingan’s words left his mouth, the officer on duty scoffed.
“I’m sorry huh, Liu Tou.” Huang Zaodan smiled and said, “When we put them in jail, I’ll buy you a drink.”
“Heh heh heh, that’s what you said.” The duty officer laughed.
The entrance to the yamen was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
“I want to see the county magistrate.”
However, there was still someone who did not know how to spoil the harmonious atmosphere, repeating what he had just said at this moment.
You’re so stupid.
The duty officer looked sideways
Yellow save point face a black
The officer in charge of Zhu Pingan hurriedly went up to clean up Zhu Pingan, broken socks are ready, planning to go up and stuff the broken socks into Zhu Pingan’s mouth first, and then give him three or two kicks to let him know what it means for the entrance of the Yamen to open to the south, this nerd, not to beat up not to be able to.
“I want to see the county magistrate.”
Zhu Pingan repeated again.
“You damn it,” the duty officer’s face went black and he opened his mouth to curse, but his words knotted in mid-sentence, as if he had swallowed a mouthful of Shang.
Because Zhu Pingan was holding a voucher stamped with the Guanfang Official Defence Seal as well as various official seals in front of the officer on duty, and then looked at him with a smile on his face.
“What the hell is wrong with me?”
Zhu Pingan hooked his lips and asked with a peaceful smile on his face.
The duty mandarins a face like swallowing Xiang, this change came too suddenly, all without a hint of defence, face twitching hard from sulking to squeeze out a flower.
“You f*cking stupid ah.”
This change is so fast that the errand boy in charge of Zhu Pingan did not have a hint of awareness, Zhu Pingan’s words just fell, this dude picked up the words and cursed, this is a good time to get close to Liu Tou, haha, I did it.
After saying that, this mate took the stinky socks and came up, looking to stuff into Zhu Pingan’s mouth.
“You’re the one who’s stupid.”
Only to see that at this moment, the duty officer whooshed and scurried to the front of the officer who came up, cursed loudly, and then immediately went up to a big mouth, the old loud.
This
What’s going on here?
The officer with the smelly socks was dumbfounded by the duty officer’s slap in the mouth and the scolding from the head.
Also dumbfounded were Huang Zhendian and the following officers, and of course, even more dumbfounded were Yang Dacheng’s family.
