Chapter 124: In Zhu's house, Zhu Yong wants to run away
Jiang Yang's heart skipped a beat.
After such a long time, why did I suddenly forget about this matter?
His identity is false.
Is it possible that the county guard in front of me also knows the old man of Li You's family?
How to answer this question?
"Brother Li? What's wrong?" the county guard looked up at Jiang Yang and asked.
"The official is scared." Jiang Yang hurriedly lowered his head and said: "I have been studying abroad for several years and have not returned home. After receiving the emperor's favor, I came directly to Xiami County and have not returned home. The old lady is in poor health."
At this point, Jiang Yang sighed and said with regret in his eyes: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in dilemma. I am willing to learn from you and shed the last drop of blood for the people."
"Hahaha, you kid." The county guard waved his robe and said, "According to seniority, it's not too much for you to call me uncle, but since we are officials in the same court, I have the final say. You call me big brother."
"I know what's going on in Xiami County. Let's cut the tax in half this year. If there's anything missing, just ask someone to bring money to the county to buy it. I'll let the people below handle it as appropriate."
"So thank you for beating me."
Jiang Yang felt that the trip was worthwhile.
Is it normal for my county to be short of iron? Not only can I buy it at Changdong Commercial Bank, but I can also buy another one from Junchen.
I believe that in a short time, the problem of iron deficiency will not occur.
"Brother Li, I heard from people below that the public security in Mi County is not very good. People often turn into bandits. I heard that you have had a few fights with them?"
Getting back to the topic, the county guard looked at Jiang Yang suspiciously and said, "I didn't expect Brother Li to be a genius with both civil and military skills."
"Sir, you are joking. The people below are just exaggerating. How can there be people in Beihai County who fall into the trap of bandits when you have adults here?" Jiang Yang said hurriedly.
How do you say this? I really started crying here, ah, yes, yes, we are in misery in Mi County.
The Wang family often sends horse bandits to harass us. Lord Sheriff, you need to help us.
Very good, after receiving the transfer order, the black man Zhenwei Colonel will be stationed in Xiami County in an open and honest manner.
At that time, it will be easier to invite God than to send Him away.
"Really, I'll tell you." The county guard laughed and said, "If it's really like what they said, the people of Mi County can still give me gifts spontaneously? I'm just going to slap them in the face."
"The official is just telling the truth."
Both of them were considered foxes, so they couldn't get any better. After testing each other's words for a long time,
"Oops, I forgot something. I need to have a good chat with Brother Li."
…
In Xiami County, in the Zhu family's house, Zhu Yong ordered people to quickly clean up the belongings.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Zhu Gongzi had just come back from drinking some wine with some classmates and looked at the messy home, feeling a little confused.
"Run away, what else can you do?" Zhu Yong puffed his beard and said with a glare: "It seems like everything is calm these days, but in fact the county magistrate can't spare any time."
"I found out that the county magistrate has gone to the county seat, and the county magistrate and several people already want to deal with us. If we don't run away now, how long will it take?"
Mr. Zhu was confused and said, "Dad, there's no need for this. I helped them repel the enemy! Why are you running away?"
Zhu Yong sighed. He had thought that his son's defection would be rewarded by the county magistrate's forgiveness, but there had been no summons from the county magistrate in the past few days, and the officials in Xiami County seemed to think that he did not exist.
But his informant suddenly said that the people over there had finished distributing the land and were planning to clear out the Zhu family, which made Zhu Yong's last hope disappear.
After leaving Xiami County, his advisor, Mr. Zhu's teacher, also followed Colonel Zhenwei to the county seat.
I don’t even have anyone to discuss with me, and now the county government’s butcher’s knife has been waved high. Why don’t I run away and wait to die?
"Dad, I think the county magistrate is not an unreasonable person. It will be fine if we go and admit our mistake." Mr. Zhu was quite ideal.
In the past few days, when eating and drinking at the Yuelai Hotel, I often saw big shots from the county government.
They all treated him kindly and showed no sign of wanting to raise a butcher's knife.
"My son, what do you know? Did he tell me openly that I was going to kill you? Let you run away? They must have done it secretly." Zhu Yonghong couldn't remember.
He turned around and looked at it in horror: "Don't move that mahogany table. It's too heavy to take with you. I bought it and exchanged it for money."
"My son, go and clean up your clothes quickly and then leave with your father." Zhu Yong didn't know what to say, so he could only urge.
"Dad, where can we go? Our land and property are all in Xiami County." Mr. Zhu still refused to give up and said: "Let's go and admit our mistakes to the county magistrate. We haven't committed any serious crimes."
, not to the extent.”
Didn't commit any serious crime?
Haha, your father and I colluded with Wang Yuanwai to have an affair with the horse bandits. Look at Wang Yuanwai, the grass on Wang Yuanwai's grave is now two meters high.
And you didn't expect that your father and I not only colluded with the king, but also called the black man, the captain.
How should I put it? Isn’t your father very good? He put Xiami County into crisis twice, isn’t it great?
"Sell it, sell it, sell it. Go away quickly. My son, money is an external possession. I will earn it for you when we go to another place and establish a foothold." Zhu Yong was very anxious.
But this Mr. Zhu is like a bastard who eats weights and refuses to listen no matter what he says.
In the end, Zhu Yong had no choice but to have someone knock him out and take him away.
At this time, in the county government office, Li You was drinking tea relaxedly.
A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Speaking of the Zhu family, Jiang Yang himself had no intention of going to war, nor did he intend to commit any tragedy or wipe out the family.
After all, Mr. Zhu also contributed a lot behind the scenes.
It's just that this old guy doesn't know how to count and hasn't handed over his property for several days.
Isn't this just teasing me?
So Li You called Wen Guan and sent out news that the county government was going to deal with the Zhu family, so as to scare them away.
The fields and property they sold were all bought at low prices by Li Youjian, who pretended to be a businessman.
These are legal.
"Then, do you want to inform Chen Zhiyong and wait for them..." Wen Guan asked in a low voice.
"No, don't chase the poor bandits. The Zhu family can't afford to cause any trouble." Li You waved his hand and said, "I heard that your Excellency has been to the county town in the past few days. We must quickly arrange the things at hand."
"Okay, these days I have dug out all the old cases in the county and looked at them carefully. I have also dealt with all the small things these days."
"Okay, don't live up to the adults' expectations of you."
....
Back in Beihai County, Jiang Yang and the county magistrate chatted all afternoon. Both of them were very happy. When they left the gate of the magistrate's mansion, the sun had already set.
"Brother Li, I won't send you away. I will take you around Beihai County when I have time."
