Chapter 41
The old man's face turned black and he hurriedly dodged. The monster old man waved his hand. The two men in black who followed him slowly squeezed over, sat beside him, and whispered.
"Sir, we have all inquired. Today, Lord Li invited all the famous foreign wealthy people in the county, as well as the gentry and gentry in the southeast, west and northeast, and the major villages."
It turned out that this strange old man was no one else, but the new prefect Kuang Yuanle, but he has always been rebellious and is a clear-hearted official. For his master, Yan Song, the chief assistant of the dynasty, he repeatedly confronted him.
It is precisely because of this reason that he was transferred to Yulinzhou and took over the mess of the bandits' anti-people. Before leaving, Yan Song asked someone to take care of him. If he couldn't do it well, don't blame him as a ruthless teacher.
Of course, people like him will definitely not go through the ordinary path, and the way of assessing subordinate officials is often different from others. This time, the reason why he drove a ox cart and pretended to be a villager was to find out Li Tiedan's background.
Hearing this result, Kuang Yuanle felt a little annoyed, and couldn't help but stand up and locked his eyes on Li Tiedan not far away. He was wearing a blue seventh-grade leopard refill and a frozen green cloth-topped thousand-layer cloth shoes. He was chatting with an old man at this time.
"Old Mr. Qin, how many people in the first wing have come back these days?"
"Sir, let me tell you that since you sent the notice to the side of the house three days ago, the people hiding in the mountains have returned, but it's still much different."
"Oh, that's right, it seems they still don't believe me, the county magistrate."
"Sir, I can't say that. The bandits in Goulu Mountain are all killing people without blinking. Even if they are in the land, they have to find a few stones. It's good to be able to come back. How can I say that, some things can only be done slowly. As long as the county is ready, they will naturally be willing to come back."
"I want to do it too, just-."
When Kuang Yuanle heard this, a fire suddenly burst out from his mind and said in his heart: As a county's parent official, he doesn't do his best to the people, but makes excuses with an old man. This is too inappropriate.
Thinking of this, he suddenly stood up, trying to show his value and scolded Li Tiedan, but then he thought that Li Tiedan had just taken office for less than seven days and had no foundation.
If he was embarrassed in front of so many people and ruined his prestige, if this kid was furious and quit his burden, wouldn’t this Beiliu County have no hope? He was so calm and said loudly.
"Sir, the old man's surname is Zhong, and he is from Bian Sanli. I want to guess a riddle for him."
Li Tiedan stood up and looked at him. He saw that Kuang Yuanle was seven feet tall. Although he was as thin as dry wood, his face was relatively white. With this, he had no good impression of Kuang Yuanle.
In addition, the door came to report just now that the old man was unreasonable and insisted on saying that a car of cucumbers was a treasure, and why did Li Tiedan open the yamen to do business, and he could not pick pears and dates from the west, and only accept gifts.
When he saw him coming out to find trouble again, Li Tiedan's stomach felt an unknown karma fire, which suddenly burned from his navel to his head. But he was an official, whether he was a troublemaker or a good citizen, he had to give in first.
"Old Zhong, please tell me." Li Tiedan said with a fire.
Kuang Yuanle touched his white beard, "Sir, you can hear it. This is a riddle. The puzzle is the word Lu. The mystery is a kind of person."
"Sir!" Kuang Yuanle said and smiled, a contemptuous look flashed in his eyes, "Guess, who is this person?"
Seeing that Huang Tianci had not arrived for a long time, Li Tiedan felt anxious and was as if he had time to talk nonsense with him, a crazy old man, and hurriedly replied: "Old Zhong, I have been learning the Four Books and Five Classics since I was a child, and I have learned all the studies of various schools of world governance. I have never been involved in this kind of knowledge. I can't answer your mystery."
Kuang Yuan smiled happily, touched his beard, and looked at everyone and said, "Does any of you know?"
These old gentry are not easy to use. As Ying Gu said, they are all people who have lived in the oil. Those are not used to being tragic. When he heard this, Mr. Huang stood up and asked.
"Old Zhong, give me some more tips."
Kuang Yuanle smiled and said, "This kind of person is not a good person. He chews slowly during the day and is very gentle. At night, he is very stingy and doesn't even vomit bones when he eats people. He is very bad."
Mr. Huang thought about it, and a light shone in his eyes: "Oh, I understand. There is a mouth on the top of the word "Lu" and a mouth on the bottom. This kind of person is not another person, but a woman."
Everyone seemed to not understand very well and asked, "Old Huang, where do you start?"
Mr. Huang looked like a woman, pointed at his old mouth, and said in a coquettish voice: "What do you think, I use the cherry stutters on top during the day, what is it that squint? At night, I use the stuttering villain below to stutter. Hehe, although that villain is hard, he has no bones, so of course he can't spit out the bones."
When the old man saw Mr. Huang's funny look, he wanted to laugh. After hearing his explanation, he laughed so hard that he spit out tea and water, which made the harmonious scene that Li Tiedan had finally managed to mess up, and instantly turned the county government courtyard into a vegetable market.
After hearing this, Kuang Yuanle laughed loudly and finally stopped, saying, "The old saying goes, only women and villains in the world are difficult to raise. But according to the old man, this villain hurts people a hundred times, and women hurts people ten times. Although women have two mouthfuls, they can earn their own food, and the people who eat are willing to eat are not bad people."
Everyone laughed and asked, "What kind of person can be considered a bad person?"
Kuang Yuanle smiled but didn't answer, but just looked at Li Tiedan and said, "Sir, the old man is a mountain villager. When he was studying, he always sat on the back of a cow."
"This cow is going all the way, and the old man reads this book so fragrant that it smells like a stinky thing. I remember the fragrant part, but I forgot the smell. I would like to give you a guide: What kind of people in this world can be called bad people, what kind of people can be called a stuttering person, and what kind of people can be called a stuttering person?"
Seeing that although Kuang Yuanle was not in line with the previous words, Li Tiedan said that there were mystery everywhere, both true and false. He immediately regarded him as a character, and couldn't help but think about it. He didn't dare to take it lightly anymore, and thought for a while.
"In my opinion, people who can eat and eat people must be not ordinary people. If they want to eat, they must either have a hoe, rake, and plow the land, or write ink, and write papers. This is something that many people can do."
"But if you want to eat people, it will be difficult. It is important to know that eating people is a violation of national law. If you want to avoid being captured by the court, you have to work hard and rack your brains to think hard."
"Not only that, he also needs to have a knife in his hand, a knife that kills people without blood, and a knife that is in his hand that makes everyone afraid. There is only one kind of person who can meet these conditions."
Everyone turned their heads when Li Tiedan said this, and looked at him and said, "Sir, who is this kind of person?"
