Chapter 62: The Little Eunuch Enters the Goulan Courtyard
Pan's man was already dying when he was beaten with thirty sticks. Hu Zhixian suddenly remembered something and shouted to stop. He ordered the officials to take the half-dead man to the death row, bathe and change clothes, eat and drink, and feed him first.
Let's talk after we get up. Everyone doesn't know why, but the county magistrate is in charge. He can do whatever he says. If he can't disobey, he must implement it first even if he doesn't understand.
Hu Zhixian returned to the back hall, folded his hands into fists, bowed respectfully, gave a deep salute and said:
"Brother, I have chosen a scapegoat for you. He looks a bit similar, but he is a little older, but that doesn't matter. Who can look at a dead man's head so carefully?"
The little eunuch listened to Lao Hu Luo's question for a long time and didn't understand what was going on. He smiled and said:
"What a scapegoat? It's a dead man's head. Do you think you're just killing people?"
Hu Zhixian explained: "Brother, I don't know. During the day when I was interrogating the case, I got angry when I saw the pair of dogs and men who harmed you, so regardless of the circumstances, I first rewarded each of them with a hundred big boards. Then I sentenced them to death."
One of them was shot dead in court, and the other was shot dead in court. When the government officials were executing the execution, I suddenly had an idea. Guess what?"
"What's the matter?" The little eunuch paused midway through the teacup he picked up.
Hu Zhixian chuckled and said, "Don't I want your head to be worn when writing in Chaoli? I simply cut off that man's head and did some tricks to pass it off as your head. Maybe I can get some reward, but I'm short of money right now."
It’s the same thing.”
"What is it?" The little eunuch put down the tea cup.
"I didn't find anything like the sword given by the emperor in your horse bag."
The little eunuch suddenly remembered and said: "The knife is still in my boot. When the fire broke out that day, I only thought about my life. I'm afraid it would still be in ruins."
"This is easy to handle. I sent someone to find it immediately and send it to the capital together with the evil man's head. After a while of prevarication, by the time they find out the authenticity, you have already arrived in the capital. The head is fake.
, the knife is real, how could they argue so carefully, wouldn’t this matter have the best of both worlds?”
The young eunuch just discovered at this time that this Master Hu Zhixian, who was both good and bad, half clear and half clear, turned out to be a talent, but he couldn't use it for the right ideas. Being an official cannot only focus on character, the key is whether he has it or not.
As a fool, he is honest, but what can he accomplish? So he said:
"Brother, it's all up to you, except for one thing. Don't Ling Chi, that woman. She ended her life with a knife and let her suffer. After all, she had a fight with my nephew."
"Brother, you are so kind-hearted. If you are not a brother, you cannot be a wife if you achieve great things. To treat such evil people, you must use torture. In order to frame her brother, she even killed her own daughter.
Now that I've been taken in, why do you think you have any conscience for such evil people? Brother, you don't have to worry about this. I have my own arrangements. I will parade to the public tomorrow, and then I will tie him to a pillar in front of the county government office and cut him to death with a knife.
It can relieve the hatred in my heart."
The little eunuch suddenly had a thought in his mind: When he returns to the court one day, if he can succeed, he will let this magistrate of Hu County be in charge of the punishment department. He thought so in his heart, but he said:
"What brother said is not unreasonable."
Lao Hu was very proud of being praised and asked with a smile: "If eldest brother returns to the court in the future, what kind of job can he find for his brother?"
"Let you be in charge of the punishment department." The little eunuch came out.
"Fuck, then I will be in Kaifeng Mansion. Then I will also build a big pot and enjoy my addiction to killing people. You still know me, brother, this is my favorite position!" Hu Zhixian shouted happily!
.
"Don't kill innocent people indiscriminately!" the little eunuch warned.
"Which one is guilty and which one is innocent? I want to kill the group of people who want to turn you into a eunuch, brother! They have countless wives that they can't use, but they cut out other people's household items to eat meat. It's so abominable!" Hu Zhixian was indignant!
road.
The young eunuch hurriedly stopped him and said: "Brothers, don't talk nonsense. This is causing rebellion and trying to destroy the nine tribes. Besides, I am not a eunuch at all."
"Brother, I know. Someone told me the day before that you exposed yourself when you emerged from the sea of fire, but I didn't dare to ask you. This is your privacy!" Hu Zhixian said with a sly smile.
The little eunuch thought in his heart: What a ghost! After what he did was exposed that day, he knew that the fire could not be contained in the paper, so he simply stopped hiding it. Unexpectedly, County Magistrate Hu had already figured it out. He said:
"Brother, the things here are over and it's time for me to set off. When do you plan to let me go?"
"Brother, what are you talking about? I hope you can return to the DPRK as soon as possible, and I will follow you to Beijing to have a good time for a few days. But since you have arrived at my brother's place, if you don't enjoy it for a few days, how can I let you go?"
"What can you enjoy in a small place like yours?"
"Brother, I don't know. Although my land is small, there are countless happy places. The dignitaries, wealthy businessmen, and princes in the big cities, in short, all the masters who are willing to spend money and have money to spend, come here because of it.
They’re all countless! If these people don’t make money, they won’t make it in vain.”
"Tell me, what projects are there?" the little eunuch became interested.
"Wine and sex, which one do you choose?"
"Good boy, you have figured out the thoughts of rich people."
"A new stunning beauty has recently arrived in Goulan Courtyard. Her name is Xue Tao. She is still a baby. I will let my eldest brother enjoy this girl."
When the little eunuch heard that there was a beautiful woman waiting for him, he immediately became energetic and asked urgently: "When will I have a look at her?"
Hu Zhixian smiled and said: "Brother is still impatient, but let's start with the ugly words. Since ancient times, people have been prostitutes when they have been poor, so you have to pay for it yourself!"
"How much silver?"
"The first night is entitled to five thousand taels."
"I have plenty of money in my stable."
"Brother, please don't boast. I didn't see many. I sent someone to check and found that there were less than one or two hundred taels left."
"If you don't have enough money, what should you do? You can advance it for me first and I'll lend it to you?"
"I've said it before, I can't borrow this money for gambling, not prostitution," Hu Zhixian said seriously.
"Forget it, I can't break your rules," the little eunuch sighed and shook his head.
"Brother, don't be busy. I looked inside your two pairs of stirrups. One is made of pure gold, and the other is made of iron. For the sake of neatness, it's too eye-catching, so why not replace them both with iron ones? The gold ones are pretty
I sold 10,000 taels of silver and talked about it, I wonder if I can bear it?"
The young eunuch said without hesitation: "What's the harm? Not to mention spending five thousand taels on a beauty and there are still five thousand taels left. Even if all 10,000 taels are spent, it's not a worry."
Hu Zhixian clapped his hands and said: "It seems that the eldest brother is also a man of temperament. If so, let's make it this way."
