"Your magistrate has an order: Although Hu County is not a battlefield in the battle between Yun and Burma, it is the key to the transportation of military resources. Therefore, all affairs in our county will be managed during the war until the end of the Yun and Burma war. Zhang Shiyun and Qiu Tianci , Xiao Hanxiang, delayed the military plane, killed without mercy!"
The person who brought out the knife raised the bloody long knife and announced sharply that the blood slowly flowed down the blade, flowed through the gauntlet, and fell on his hand, which immediately turned into a bloody hand.
Hua Qingfeng looked at the man who saw the knife, but he didn't recognize him. He was not tall, nor was he burly. He had a thin body, but he had a beard. Hua Qingfeng hadn't seen a murder before, so she was terrified by this scene: "This... who is this person?"
Su Xuntian's face was also a little pale. Although he knew that there must be such a moment, seeing the head fall to the ground with his own eyes, and the person who was talking just now suddenly decapitated and turned into a dead person, the excitement was still quite strong. of. He swallowed with difficulty, and said to Hua Qingfeng: "Lord County Lord, he... His name is Hua Mengzi, and he is a fast catcher in this county!"
Hua Qingfeng stammered: "Really? It seems that this county... seems to have never seen him..."
Su Xuntian said: "He is a helper hired by a humble job, not an active police officer in this county."
There are a total of more than ten arresters with quotas in the county. A county has a population of at least tens of thousands, and they live scattered in various valleys. Of course, it is impossible to manage it with a dozen arresters, so each county has A large number of helpers are called catchers, but the imperial court does not recognize them, and they are supported by local self-raised funds.
When Hua Qingfeng heard that he wasn't an active police officer, he thought to himself: "This man is also fierce. He chopped off three heads in one go without blinking his eyes. He is clearly a desperado!"
At this time, the people next to him were frightened by the ruthless three swords of the arrester. Hua Zhixian really dared to kill people. He had already killed three people. Look at the pools of blood on the ground. Zhang Shiyun's body is still there. It twitched once and for all, it was terrible, it was terrible!
There were still some foremen in the crowd who were ready to add fuel to the flames and show Hua Qingfeng some color. At this time, his knees softened, and "Pu Tong" knelt down, and he took the lead in expressing his loyalty: "Xiaomin, wait for me!" Guarantee the repair project, and never dare to make any mistakes, please rest assured, the county magistrate!"
joke! People are using knives, can it be done if they are not soft? money? The money is collected, and at worst, it will be returned, even if it is doubled according to the rules, if you want to have money, you have to live to enjoy it! As soon as they knelt, the others also reacted, and immediately knelt down one after another, kowtowing like garlic.
Seeing that this trick really calmed down these people, Hua Zhixian was a little happy, but...killing people...will it work? Huazhi County is not sure. Although he has the right to judge, the final judgment rests with the emperor.
Of course, the centralization of power by the imperial court will not be inflexible, and it is still willing to delegate power under some special circumstances, such as wartime, troubled times, and when the emperor temporarily authorizes. After all, under such special circumstances, if one waits for the imperial court's reply blindly, it is very likely that the cucumber dishes will become cold every time the official documents come and go, so the local officials must be granted arbitrary power.
Just... wartime? The battlefield is still far away from Huxian County. If Huxian County is insisted on being classified as a war zone and killing people as a special case, will the court approve it? This matter must be reported to the court.
Zhou Ban took a step forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, although our Hu County is not a war zone, our place is closely related to the war in the war zone. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a war zone. I believe the court can understand."
At this moment, Huazhi County was in a state of disarray, and he just wanted to hear a word of affirmation. Hearing Bantou Zhou's words, his heart calmed down a little.
He is a majestic county magistrate, he was bullied by unruly people like merchants and servants, so he was not angry, but he suffered from the fact that there was no way to punish him. If he wanted to show his prestige, beating the board would not have much effect. The majesty has been swept away, and the only way to make these people obediently obey orders is to use more powerful means.
Will the imperial court really recognize Huxian as a war zone? How could Bantou Zhou have this certainty, and Ye Xiaotian didn't have the ability to be sure, but very people do extraordinary things, especially in such an extraordinary period, Ye Xiaotian has no time to divide, disintegrate, win over, and attack little by little. It is inevitable that the county post road will be affected.
If that's the case, even if they finally won this contest, they would still be defeated. Once the post road transportation is really affected, they will definitely be dismissed from office. Put the blame on logistical support.
In the end, all the conflicts will be concentrated in Huxian County. At that time, Huazhi County was not as simple as being dismissed from office. Using his head to explain the reason for the defeat of the war to the world, I am afraid that the military and civilian groups are the most respectable and most respectable. For the right reasons.
"Work! Come on, work! The road under the cliff must be repaired and reinforced today, otherwise you won't have dinner!" Several second and third foremen stared at the murderous bearded faces, Immediately jumped up and howled loudly, scaring a group of servants to pick up their tools and run away.
Originally, they were exhausted from working, but the shovel shoveled off a layer of floating soil on the ground, and the pickaxe couldn't nail it three inches deep. This time, they showed all their energy. Just kidding, the county magistrate Really dare to move a knife! Three headless corpses were still lying in a pool of blood.
The bearded face smiled slightly with a bloody knife in his hand, but there were no smile lines at the corners of his eyes. He was still very young and his skin was tight. Although the beard on his face made him look ten years older than his actual age, he actually Just eighteen, Hua Yunfei is still very young.
※※※
The work on the post road was in full swing, and the incident that happened on this section of the road quickly spread to other places. No one on the entire post road dared to intentionally cause trouble. Staying in the most difficult place, for fear of any accident, God knows whether Hua Zhixian, who is in a hurry, will continue to operate without asking why.
When the post road was very lively, the courtyard of the Xia family mansion by the Hongfeng Lake was also very lively. Xia Yingying sat on a rosewood armchair with her legs crossed, her hands hugging her knees, and the corners of her mouth curled down, trying her best to look like a picky old lady, but because of her sweet appearance, she was still so cute.
Xiaowei was dressed in men's clothing, with big eyes and a pointed chin, she was sweeter and more beautiful than a woman. Xiaowei clasped her fists to Xia Yingying and said politely: "Madam, my surname is Ye, and my name is Xiaotian. I'm the county magistrate of Hu County, Guizhou..."
When Xia Yingying heard this, she quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, the official is too young."
Xiaowei hurriedly changed her words: "Yes, the boy's surname is Ye, his name is Xiaotian, and he is the magistrate of Tongren, Guizhou..." At this point, she turned her eyes to Xia Yingying. Xia Yingying thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "You're still young, how could Brother Xiaotian be just a little magistrate?"
Xiaowei said: "Then... the boy is the chief envoy of Guizhou..."
Xia Yingying shook her head and said, "No way! The chief envoys are all bearded and wrinkled old men. There are no young people. They are too old, too old."
Xiaolu stood aside like a proud peacock, trying to look up at the sky, as if waiting for a shooting star to pass through the sky.
This is what Xia Yingying taught her. Miss Xia said that a girl should be reserved and proud. She can't act like she is in a hurry to get married, otherwise she will be looked down upon by her husband's family. She must be proud, so Xiaolu's chin is lifted The higher the height, thanks to her very flexible body, her head almost broke her neck.
But looking up like this is obviously very hard work. Hearing that Xiaowei couldn't pass the test again and again, Xiaolu became impatient, walked over and pulled her away, bowed to Xia Yingying, and said slowly: "Old lady, the boy's surname is Ye, His name is Xiaotian, he is the number one scholar in this department, the general of the three armies, since he saw Lingsun Yingying, he fell in love with her at first sight. He was delighted to hear that Yingying was as young as Ji, and she was not yet married, so she took the liberty to come to the house and sincerely ask for a mate. Luan, I am honored."
Xia Yingying smiled and said, "This is good, this is good!"
Xiaowei said unconvinced: "Miss, why don't you do this? Many men in their late teens and 80s who are admitted to the first prize, and those who can be the generals of the armed forces are even old men with a lot of beards."
Xia Yingying narrowed her pretty eyes and said, "Who said that? You see, on the stage, the champions are all young and handsome. Those who become generalissimo are even more chic." Xia Yingying said more and more. The happier you are, the big round eyes gradually turned into a pair of crescent moons: "Just say so!"
Xiaowei coughed and said, "Miss, this word should belong to me, I am Ye Xiaotian!"
Xia Yingying became impatient: "Oh, you two are so troublesome, you can't do this well! Forget it, let's do this part tomorrow, come on, come on, quickly pray to the heavens and the earth, and drink Hebei wine."
Xiaolu said pitifully: "Miss, why don't we just go straight to the bridal chamber, Mrs. Wu is celebrating her birthday today, miss, you still have to drink wedding wine."
"That's it, that's okay, then let's enter the bridal chamber right away!" Yingying stopped pretending to be an old lady, jumped off the chair, ran happily to the bedroom, grabbed a red cloth and covered her head, She doesn't need Xiaolu to play in the bridal chamber.
In the bedroom, Xiao Wei, who has practiced it countless times, raised her hijab, raised Xia Yingying's chin "smilingly", and laughed lewdly: "Little lady, you are so prettier than a sedan chair." It's not easy to be a husband, hey! Hehehe... "
Xiaolu rolled his eyes helplessly, is this the bridegroom? She's clearly a prostitute, forget it, who cares what other people are doing, it's her turn to play right away. Xiaolu took out a black scarf from his sleeve and covered his face, revealing only a pair of beautiful big eyes.
According to Miss Xia, it is not so easy for the bride to marry off. There must be a flower picker to take the bride away, and then the groom will single-handedly enter the lair of the prostitute. The flower picker rescued the lovely bride...
The bride expressed her shyness to the groom by throwing a shy wink, and then hurriedly waved to the side road: "This prostitute is so stupid, I need to be reminded."
Xiaolu opened his arms, made an eagle catch a chick, and shouted loudly: "I am a bold thief! Little lady, you should obediently be my Mrs. Yazhai, wow! …”
