The light snow that had fallen for several days finally stopped on the twenty-eighth afternoon of the twelfth lunar month. The gray clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing dazzling but not much warm sunlight.
The county magistrate Jia finally gave out all the things that could be given, and he also asked a few bribed government servants to help send them to some distant places. He really didn't have the mood to do this.
Those government officials who gave things would naturally not say that they were given by the county magistrate, but to the people who got the things they said they belonged to the Zhangjiazhuangzi. That’s not wrong, they are indeed from the Zhangjiazhuangzi, and they can receive the things. What the people think is given to them by the Zhang family.
"Come here, go out with the officer." The county magistrate Jia, who was restless, put on plain clothes and carried a package. He didn't know what was in it, facing the yamen guarding the yamen. Shouted.
Song Yang brought two bribed government servants to wait here today. It has already been arranged. When the county magistrate Jia returned from Tuqiao Village, someone sent a letter to him, except for himself. None of the other officials knew what was written in the letter.
After reading the letter, county magistrate Jia became even more excited and nervous, until he saw the letter turned into ashes and dust again, he looked at the servants outside the car vigilantly.
Today is the time for him to do it. To be precise, it is tomorrow. He has to go to a place today, at the junction of Huayuan County and Sanshui County. Someone found a helper for him. He was in Yamen yesterday. He did something, secretly did it, he didn't even tell his family.
"My lord, where are you going?" Song Yang asked respectfully when his car was ready.
The county magistrate Jia didn't tell Song Yang where to go. He looked around and asked Song Yang, "Have you arranged the things you arranged?"
"Don't worry, your lord, the arrangements have been made. Brothers are all waiting on the road, but which road do you want to go?" Song Yang replied.
County magistrate Jia smiled unpredictably, "You'll know then, let's go."
After speaking, the county magistrate Jia stepped into the car, went out under the escort of Songyang's three government officials, and walked along a small road to the location of Tuqiao Village.
The cart was not moving fast. In order to be able to rush more, the cart was replaced by a donkey. Now there is no need to worry about the horse freezing in the middle of the road.
After walking out for an hour, the county magistrate Jia picked up the curtain of the car and told an officer outside: "You go back now and stay outside the office. When someone asks about the official, they say that the official is out to visit the people."
The Ya Ya agreed and turned and left.
The car moved forward again, and after waiting for another half an hour, the county magistrate Jia once again ordered the other government officials, "You also go back now, and gather all the government officials, not just the twenty of you, but also elsewhere. Yes, let people use fast horses to report to the yamen in Tuqiao Village.
Waiting for everyone to arrive, it’s almost midnight. Go to Xiaoluoshui Wharf and surround the wharf with the officer. Something happened over there. Then the officer will be there to wait for you. From now on, Sanshui County The days are different. "
As soon as the government officer was about to leave, Song Yang persuaded him from the side: "My lord, there will only be small and grown-ups left here. The grown-ups should go back first and find more staff."
"En? Song Yang, you have to believe that Sanshui County is stable and that no one will hurt the officer. Go." County magistrate Jia looked at Song Yang in the car, and waved his hand. Let the servant leave.
After doing this, the county magistrate Jia continued to let Song Yang drive the car forward. This time he urged the speed to be faster. The magistrate Jia stopped the car again at a place with a big tree.
This time he got out of the car and looked at Song Yang with a puzzled face and asked with a smile: "Song Yang, tell me, can I trust you?"
"My lord, what do you mean? The little one is loyal to the adults. As long as the adults give instructions, the little ones dare to break through." Song Yang had a firm expression on his face and patted his chest to assure.
The county magistrate Jia’s smile on his face was even greater, he took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Song Yang, and said to Song Yang: “In that case, you immediately take this letter to Tuqiao Village, the one between Shuiyun The Han family stayed in the yard, handed the letter to him, and then obeyed his arrangements. Hurry up. Whether the official can stand in Sanshui County depends on this."
Song Yang took the letter, looked around, then looked at the county magistrate Jia, and said, "My lord, it's not possible. You let the younger one go, what should I do here?"
"The officer drove the car back by himself, don't worry, the officer brought something out specially, you see." County magistrate Jia took out a hat and a large hemp garment from his big parcel. It's a little shabby.
"The officer puts on this clothes and drove the car back slowly. You have to go there quickly. Unfortunately, there is no horse. You can see where there is a horse around. You can find and use it first. You are strong when you walk, and when you finish this matter, the officer will never treat you badly, go quickly."
While speaking, County Majesty Jia put on the hat and the clothes outside, reaching the place where the car was driven, and walking forward with the car, not forgetting to look back at Song Yang.
Song Yang stood there for a moment, and shouted at the car that did not go back: "Don't worry, adults, the younger ones must send the letter as quickly as possible, and the adults take care."
After saying this, Song Yang looked around, choosing a road with no road and wading through the snow.
After dozens of breaths of time, the donkey cart stopped, and county magistrate Jia jumped out of the car, watching Song Yang's departure from the direction motionless, staring at it until Song Yang's figure was no longer visible. Sit back in the car, open the package, and put away the hat and the large clothes.
Then he took out a piece of fine linen clothes, shattered his hair, and changed his head shape again. After all this, the magistrate Jia opened the curtain of the car, looked at the place where Song Yang had left, and turned his head again. Reach out, look back, then push the car door, then close it, and then push the switch.
This was repeated five times, and the cold wind continued to pour into the car, and the county magistrate Jia stopped and waited.
After a short while, four figures appeared on the hillside, three stood there looking around, one ran over quickly, reached the front of the car, opened the door and got in.
"My lord, get down quickly and hand it over to the younger one here." The man got into the car and said to the county magistrate Jia. At the same time, he took the hat and clothes from the county magistrate Jia and put it on quickly. , His figure is almost the same as that of county magistrate Jia.
County magistrate Jia nodded without talking, got out of the car, glanced around, trot up the small slope, joined the three guards, and went down from the other side.
The people in the car also came out, sat in the driving position, and drove forward. The wheels of the car left deep marks in the snow. After several tens of feet, the donkey pulling the car felt that the car seemed a little lighter. Walking faster, a gust of wind swept past, and there were two traces of snow that seemed to have been deliberately messed up by others.
County magistrate Jia went down from the slope and immediately got into another car. There were three identical cars parked here. Even if the horse pulling the cart is not close, you can’t see clearly if you look closely. One of the cars was caught. Hurrying to the direction of Yamen, the other car turned around, first went uphill, and then left with the car that Jia County Order drove by himself.
The car in which County Majesty Jia was riding waited for a while and got on another small road. The people who drove the car seemed a little anxious.
…
Song Yang, who had left, walked to a farmhouse, and saw that there was no livestock that could be ridden, so he ran to another place and ran to the side of a house. Song Yang looked around. There was no one. Take out the letter in Chinese, open it and look at it carefully.
I saw it said, "The waterway is impassable, people should bypass Xinping County. The county government has been sent to Xiaoluoshui by me. I will do it in two days and come here quickly."
Song Yang was shocked when he saw these words. Depending on the situation, the county magistrate Jia was ready to find someone from outside to deal with Xiao Luoshui. After thinking about it, Song Yang couldn’t make up his mind. He knew that there was a small village in front of him, and there was seventy in it. There are many people, there are horses, Song Yang has a good faith, and ran toward there desperately.
…
"My lord, have you done the things in the yamen? You know, if you don't have that thing, you will have less support when you act tomorrow."
When county magistrate Jia was in the car and drove out of Erli Road, a person who had been waiting for a long time got into the car and said to county magistrate Jia.
County magistrate Jia knew that this was the person sent by the Yuan family, and nodded: “Don’t worry, it’s been done last night. Let the kid from my family take it with him. Nothing will go wrong. This time, I see him Zhang’s Zhuangzi pays back. What can I say?"
"That's all right, sir, can all the yamen really gather at Xiao Luoshui? And then be transferred together?" This person also relaxed a little when he heard the words of the county magistrate Jia, and asked about the yamen again.
The county magistrate Jia smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether they gather or not. Even if I don't let them gather, some people will help them. Then they will go to Xinping County to take care of them together.
"My lord is great. My lord only said that he would let an adult help to transfer the yaman away, but he didn't expect the adult to come up with such an unpredictable strategy. After the adult succeeded at this time, we will be a family." This person is next to him. Flattery.
County magistrate Jia was truly relieved at this moment, opened the package, took out his official uniform and official seal from it, and after putting it on, said to the person: "How are things done on your side?"
"My lord, it's almost healed, it's just that the house owner of the Zhang family's family house is building a house there. I don't know why?" This person said, frowning.
