Chapter 20 Shanyang County Lieutenant
"All retreat, all retreat!" After a burst of scolding, the county yamen runners walked in.
The yamen runners came in and met with about a dozen people. The leader was a yamen official dressed in dark blue uniform. He was pointing at the drunkard watching the fun in the hall and scolding.
"Your Highness, you are from the Shanyang County Government." Seeing more than a dozen county corpses wearing county corpses enter the door, Xi Jun bought Li Ke and said.
Li Ke nodded when he heard this.
The person who came was wearing a dark blue official robe, obviously he was an eighth-rank official. Among the eighth-rank officials, the matter of arresting theft was Shanyang County Magistrate. It was probably the case that this person looked like.
However, the county magistrate is in charge of the security of the county and assists the county magistrate in charge of the party. The fighting in the downtown area is indeed within his responsibilities. However, in Li Ke's opinion, the county magistrate is not a good official position, but it is also a person in the local area and has people who are responsible for the affairs. Such a person actually takes the person himself. It is really a strange thing for Li Ke. Could it be that this county magistrate is actually a good official who does everything?
However, Li Ke obviously had a mistake, because just a moment later, the leader of the Yanxingxing came forward and got close to the county magistrate.
"It turns out that the lieutenant is here. The villain Yan Zhangli Yue pays homage to the lieutenant." The man who led the Yan Xing was named Li Yue and went forward to worship the county lieutenant.
After hearing Li Yue's words, Li Ke looked at each other with Wang Xuance beside him, and a sneer appeared on his face.
The so-called "supervisor" is the position of supervising the military and political affairs of one party, the supervision of all officials, and the supervision of the border government. How can an eighth-rank official in his county magistrate afford the word "supervisor"?
However, the county magistrate was very helpful to the title of Li Yue. He looked at Li Yue forward and asked Li Yue in a slight manner, "Why is it your salt business again?"
Li Yue seemed to be very familiar with the county lieutenant and replied with a smile: "The villain is not doing properly, so he will be troublesome to the lieutenant."
The county magistrate said: "You salt business, you earn a lot of money every day. Move back the mountains of gold and silver. But I will help you with some trouble every day. My legs are almost broken."
When Li Yue heard this, he immediately smiled and replied with a pity: "Don't worry, the little people remember the great kindness of the Wei Governor. When they look back, they will definitely report to the master and will not forget the great kindness of the Wei Governor."
When the county magistrate heard this, he showed an unconcealed smile in his eyes and said, "How dare you bother Mr. Chen in a trivial matter?"
Listening to the county magistrate's meaning, the one he said, Mr. Chen must be the master who Li Yue said, and the head of Chuzhou Yanxing.
Li Ke heard Li Yue's words and immediately understood that the county lieutenant was not here to do business, and it was clearly taking advantage of the opportunity to please Yanxing. However, Li Ke did not expect that the county lieutenant of a county would also call Yanxing the chief official, which shows how powerful Yanxing is.
Seeing this, Li Ke stepped forward and asked the county magistrate: "Since you are a county magistrate, since the people have conflicts, you should ask things impartially. After you come here, you are only close to the salt industry and don't ask the victim. What's the reason?"
"Who are you?" The county magistrate has always been arbitrary in Shanyang City. Except for the chief officials of the two prefectures and counties, he has never been afraid of anyone. He did not expect that there would be someone who dared to talk to him like this.
Li Yue hurriedly said, "Just just now, the villain was following the rules of my salt business, and he obstructed him, which attracted the commander-in-chief."
When the county magistrate heard this, he looked at Li Ke in front of him. The county magistrate was very knowledgeable. Seeing Li Ke in luxurious clothes, the several household slaves standing behind him were all very capable, which was very different from what he had seen before. He knew that the young man in front of him might be very unfair and would not be willing to commit crimes easily.
The county magistrate said: "Seeing that the young master is not from Shanyang, it is better to be careful, so as not to be in the court, whether it is good or bad, it will be a problem."
The county magistrate didn't know how profound Li Ke was. Most of his words were testing Li Ke and using the court to intimidate him, hoping that Li Ke would give up when he was in trouble.
But Li Ke was a prince, and the Taiji Hall where all officials met was just his main hall. How could he be afraid of the small Shanyang County Government?
Li Ke said: "County government office? I have never been to Shanyang County office. I have a rare opportunity today, how could I miss it?"
Li Ke didn't take the county government hall seriously, but instead felt it was very novel.
The more Li Ke was like this, the county magistrate became more and more unsure. Shanyang Nai Canal is in need, and there are countless merchants and travelers from all over the country who come and rest every day. How could he know what Li Ke's identity is? What if he really kicked the iron plate and got into trouble and got into trouble, and he would not be able to mess with people he shouldn't be provoked, but he could not afford it?
The county magistrate asked, "After all, this county government is also the government's place. It is not something that ordinary people can enter as soon as they want. I haven't asked who the young master is? He is a relative of Wu Liu, why should he help him talk?"
Li Ke naturally knew the meaning of the county magistrate, so he deliberately replied: "I have the surname Chu, and the third child in my family. Everyone calls me Sanlang. Wu Liu and I are not relatives, but I went south to manage the family's industries and travel here according to my father's order. As for talking to Wu Liu, it's just a dissatisfaction."
"I said who it is? It turns out that it is a rich family with some industries in the family." After hearing Li Ke's words, the county magistrate thought to himself, and immediately felt much more relieved.
If Li Ke is a child of a powerful family, even if he is a noble family, the county magistrate would not dare to commit crimes easily, but if he is just a wealthy businessman with wealth in his family, it would be nothing in the eyes of the county magistrate.
Even if his family is rich, as long as there is no one in the officialdom, it will be just a fat meat to the county magistrate.
The county magistrate said: "Seeing injustice on the road? If you really see injustice on the road, you should go to the county government to tell me, rather than fight privately. Today you fell into my hands and dared to make trouble. I am really bold."
Li Ke heard this and said with a smile: "I'm just telling a fair word for Wu Liu. Why do you think of a fight? The county magistrate's words are arbitrary."
The county magistrate said: "It's too early to say whether it's arbitrary or not. If you want to go to the county government, please follow me. If you get there, you will make a statement."
In public, the county magistrate should have some careful influence, so as not to be chewed and it would be bad to spread. Once he returns to the county government, that is his territory. How to interrogate Li Ke is naturally his business.
The county magistrate waved his hand and ordered his subordinate yamen runners to come forward to get the people.
But what a person Li Ke is? Not to mention a county lieutenant, even the left and right servants of the heads of all officials must perform the etiquette of ministers when they see him. How could he easily offend him? The yamen runners of the Shanyang County Yamen were about to step forward, but they were blocked by Li Ke's royal guards.
"My son has not committed any crime, and there is no evidence of confession. It is probably inappropriate for you to arrest him." Wang Xuance stepped forward and said to the county magistrate.
Although the county magistrate thought that Li Ke was a child of a merchant, he still felt a little nervous when he saw Li Ke and Wang Xuance being fearless.
The left and right were not afraid of Li Ke running away, so he didn't have to rush to attack this moment, so he ordered the yamen runners to retreat and said to Li Ke: "Since that's the case, then you can go with me."
Li Ke said: "The county government is naturally going to go, but before that, I still need to ask the servant to bring a message to my home, and ask the county magistrate to wait a moment."
When the county magistrate saw Li Ke's young, he thought he was worried when he entered the county magistrate, so he sent a letter to his home and asked them to use money to protect him. This was what the county magistrate wanted to see.
The county magistrate immediately said, "It's so fast, just talk quickly."
"Thank you."
