Chapter 300: The Gravedigger Digs a Pit to Bury Himself
How could the county government's several police officers, government servants, etc. be Nanqiao Maple Leaf's opponents? When the sword flashed, they saw flesh and blood flying across the sky, but the few who were still alive fell to their knees on the ground, shouting for their lives. Nanqiao refused to obey.
, but also to kill these evil servants who have turned against others and turned against others. Pan Youan advised:
"Forget it, Ye'er. After all, they are just trying to make ends meet. Don't make things difficult for these government officials."
Nanqiao Fengye said angrily: "Isn't it difficult? If I were a step late, your life would have been ruined in the hands of these dog slaves!"
Those government officers and police officers who just now wanted to risk their lives to help the master restore the county's officialdom, are now like bereaved dogs. They are still thinking that they may not be able to eat a bowl of rice in the future, but they have not forgotten to kowtow and bow with their hands and feet.
He kept chattering:
"Good man, please forgive me. What if you guys know which one is true and which one is false? If the county master pays us wages and we don't listen to him, which one should we listen to?"
At this time, Pan You'an heard what the Yamen said was not unreasonable, so he waved his hand and motioned Nanqiao to put down the sword in his hand. Pan You'an had already put on his clothes, and the bride Wei Xinmei had also hid in another room.
The county magistrate did not expect that Cheng Yaojin would show up in the middle of the road and ruin his good deeds. It seemed that his life was at risk! So he put on an attitude like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. He held his neck and raised his head.
Put your hands behind your back, as if nothing happened here, look out the window and look elsewhere
At this time, Zhang Baobao, Wang Hengheng, Qi Guangyuan, Lin Rugui and other people all came to Qipan to raise the tent again. The brothers stood in two shifts. The county magistrate Hou Xunchen did not need to be tied or tortured. He was allowed to stand in front of the hall and walk. Qi Guangyuan said with a smile:
"Brother-in-law, it's all my fault that Brother Rugui and I drank a few extra glasses of your wedding wine last night and almost missed the important event again."
Pan You'an said: "This is none of your business. It's all because of this dog officer's renegade, which almost didn't cost my life."
"Needless to say, if you want to kill, you have to scrape. Scholars can be killed but not humiliated!" the county magistrate standing in front of the hall retorted.
"Kill you? I will kill you now!" Qi Guangyuan said, took out a sharp knife from his arms and rushed towards Hou Xunchen
"Kill, if I don't kill you, I won't support you!" Lao Hou stretched his neck and shouted.
Pan You'an suddenly thought, this man is about to die, but his nature is strong! Yesterday, the county magistrate who was crawling on the ground calling his father and mother, how could he suddenly become a hero who is not afraid of death? After thinking about it, he waved at Qi Guangyuan
waved his hand and said:
"Old Qi, forget it, let's not argue with him. Didn't he dig a hole in the back garden yesterday to bury me? Today you take a few people there. The hole is ready, just throw him in and fill it with soil.
"
Hou Xunchen knew that this time he was the King of Heaven and could not save himself, so he acted aggressively and shouted loudly:
"Pan You'an, you dog eunuch! I guarantee that you will die without a burial place. You won't even feed the dogs to eat. Even though I died at your hands, after all, I was still an upright man when I was alive. You have children and grandchildren. You can rely on cocks and dogs to steal.
He is a small-minded person who relies on the Queen Mother and deceives the Emperor. Even though he has numerous wives, is there any one who is being married by a clear matchmaker?"
Pan You'an chuckled and said: "I think you are a foolish and vulgar person who clings to the old rules even when you are about to die. You only need to be happy every day of your life. You want so many statuses for nothing? You said that?
Yes, I only relied on this little skill of crowing and stealing, but I have obtained the wealth and wealth in the world, and I have enjoyed the happiness of the world. I can manage the army and the people. The emperor listens to my orders, and the whole country listens to my command to eliminate bullies and root out bullies.
Corrupt officials, rehabilitating kings, patrolling borders, destroying Japanese pirates, and killing rapists have been a vigorous and bustling life for more than twenty years. What else can a person do if he has such an opportunity? If I die now, I will be able to live up to my ancestors with a smile on my face.
, You are worthy of the common people. You have killed countless people in your life, but you have never killed anyone in vain. You have dealt with all kinds of money in your life, but you have never taken away a penny from the royal family. And you! You are a villain, you read the book of the sages, what do you say?
You may sound grand, but in reality you are full of evil and you buried me alive. You are a seventh-grade county magistrate, enjoying a royal salary. You don’t want to serve the country, but you wantonly plunder people’s fat and money in this barren land. You are in your forties and almost fifty.
You are a married woman, and you want to marry a teenage girl as a concubine. Can you keep her company until she grows old? Killing you is to eliminate harm for the people, what else do you have to say?"
Pan You'an's words made Lao Hou dumbfounded. The sweat beads on his stunned face fell like raindrops. The sweat on his body was soaked through his chest and back. He felt a hair in his heart and lost control of his urine. After a long while, he argued again:
:
"You said you didn't kill anyone in vain, and killing me was in vain. Even if I am not a seventh-grade county magistrate, or an ordinary citizen, I still have to investigate the case and submit it to the court for approval. I have to wait for Qiu Hou to ask you to bury me alive.
What's going on? Aren't you using a high official to bully a low official and looking down on people's lives?"
"Okay, if you bury you alive, I won't count. If I bury you alive, it's a disregard for human life. Let's let the people of Quanliangdang County judge. Nine out of ten people say you deserve to die, but I'll bury you anyway. One out of three people says you don't deserve it."
Damn it, how about I reinstate you to your original position immediately, Laohou, is this fair?"
At this point, Lao Hou had nothing to say, but he still cooked the duck in the boiling water pot. The meat was rotten but not rotten in his mouth. He held his neck and said stubbornly:
"Judgment is all that matters. I know my people well. I have been their official for three years. Are they going to let me go to the guillotine?"
Pan Youan immediately ordered: "Bao Bao, Heng Heng, bring a few people and drag this piece of shit to the street for me to wait for the people to judge."
As soon as I opened the gate of the county house, I saw hundreds of people rushing forward. I don't know who leaked the news that the imperial envoy had arrested the arrogant Hou Bapi. When the two families met, they were extremely jealous. I don't know who it was.
As soon as he shouted, rocks and tiles fell on Hou Xunchen's head and face like raindrops. He walked closer, kicked awls with his hands and feet, spit and blew his nose, cried and cursed, and shouted in unison.
If Zhang Baobao and Wang Hengheng move faster, County Magistrate Hou will have been plucked into a hairless monkey.
"How's it going, buddy? What do the people think of you?" Pan You'an asked with a smile.
Hou Xunchen drooped his head and sighed: "The world is so hot and cold, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be! The two have been the people's power since ancient times, and most of them are adding insult to injury."
"Damn it," Pan You'an scolded, "Since ancient times, you will reap what you sow melons and beans. You have done so much evil yourself, and you blame the people. As we originally agreed, drag the old thief Hou Xunchen to me in the backyard pit.
Bury it!"
Mr. Hou's character cannot be complimented, but his knowledge is real. Hearing that Dashuai Pan ordered him to be dragged away and buried alive, he composed a poem in the hall and chanted loudly:
"The wedding room is filled with flowers and candles to replace a new person, digging a hole will bury oneself instead. God is unfair and it is difficult to blame God. There is no one more unlucky than Hou Xunchen."
