strayed into fairy mountain

Chapter 34 [The drum in front of Yamen, there is another grievance]

At this time, Yicheng.

When the sky was faintly bright, Zhang Jingxu finally led the servants back.

Since the gate of the city had not yet been opened, they waited at the gate for a while, and at this time they could see the difference, the ancients were more disciplined than the later generations.

Obviously they are members of the yamen, and now they are returning from investigating the case. Not to mention the hard work all night, the key is that they have made a lot of credit.

Under such circumstances, it is said that they can enjoy some special treatment, such as shouting to open the city gate in advance, and entering the city early to hand over errands.

However, Zhang Jingxu and the others did not do this, but obediently waited at the gate of the city, not only not impatient, but very easy-going.

If this was changed to a game in later generations, I'm afraid they would have started talking and shouting, even if they didn't show off their power, they would inevitably curse from the bottom of their hearts.

It can be seen from this that the style of the ancients is really better than that of the later generations.

When they were waiting at the gate of the city, they even thought about chatting with the guards. The two sides chatted about the daily life through the thick gate.

As for the return of their group, the city gate guards were obviously surprised. As for the reason, it was also very simple. These guards still clearly remembered the scene when they left the city last night.

At that time, Zhang Jingxu was 'drunk' and kept clamoring to go home, but the yamen servants were apprehensive, and mustered up the courage to send their catcher home.

At first, I thought it was to send the drunk boss home.

When I wanted to return, the situation suddenly changed.

These yamen servants actually solved a case of considerable influence overnight. Not only did they solve the danger of serial deaths in Tofu Sunjiazhuang, but they also unearthed an old case three years ago.

This is a meritorious service!

I'm afraid there will be no shortage of rewards!
The city gate guards were very envious, and couldn't help but teased the servants, some said: "Li San, don't you forget, I treated you to a drink half a year ago. Please ask me back..."

"Liu Dangdang, you bastard is now in a bad mood. Good luck, with a good head catcher, you can gain merits just by beating his hands..."

"If you solve a murder case, you can be rewarded with two hundred dollars according to the law. If the murderer can be arrested and brought to justice, the person in charge will be rewarded with an additional amount of money."

"Good guy, make a fortune. You have a total of eleven yamen servants, and all of you have made a fortune this trip."

The yamen servants all seemed proud of the teasing of the city gate guards, but everyone knew that the ultimate goal of these guards was to flatter Zhang Butou.

Sure enough, only hearing the tone of the guards change, they began to get close to Zhang Jingxu, saying: "Is this the new head catcher? Your old man is really alive. He was obviously drunk last night, but he was drunk In addition, I solved the case smoothly, and when the news spreads in the city, the people in the city will all give a thumbs up..."

"Catcher Zhang, your reward will definitely not be less."

"When you went out of the city last night, we sent them out a few steps, and even because we were worried, we were going to visit your house after we were on business."

Zhang Jingxu laughed, but he understood the thoughts of these guards in his heart.

So he pretended to be bold, and sent out the invitation skillfully: "You brats don't need to make trouble, I am not a stingy person, if I get a reward from the yamen for solving the case, I will let Li San and the others be a Dong... find a decent restaurant, please make a big meal."

He paused slightly while talking, and his tone hinted: "If the headhunter is not busy at that time, I will go and sit with him. Everyone is lively and lively, and the wine and meat will definitely be full."

The guards were overjoyed and thanked each other across the city gate.

And amidst the chattering, it was finally time to open the city gate, and the guards all worked hard, deliberately yelled and shouted, pushed open the heavy city gate, and let Zhang Jingxu and his team enter the city.

After entering the city, they chatted for a few more words, and then excused themselves to rush back to work, Zhang Jingxu led the yamen servants and guards to leave.

Along the main street in the city, they went straight to the county government. Since it was early morning and there were few pedestrians on the street, they did not attract much attention, but after all, some vendors who got up early and opened their doors saw them.

The ancients were naturally curious about watching the excitement, so they all hid at the door of the shop, whispering with their heads probed.

Zhang Jing knew that this was inevitable, so he could only urge the yamen servants to quicken their pace, and he walked the fastest with the package on his back, trying to avoid arousing more people's curiosity.

After all, as the head catcher of the Yicheng County Government, he personally carried a package on his back after investigating the case. As long as he thought about this situation for a while, it was easy to guess that there was something special in the package.

But regarding the matter of the little scholar, Zhang Jingxu didn't want to attract too much attention, because he pityed the little scholar's past, and at the same time, he didn't want the Divine Family to notice...

……

Speeding up all the way, he finally rushed back to the county government office, first escorting the four villagers into the front yard, while Zhang Jingxu went straight to the back house of the county government office.

Since he is now the head of the county government office and is a figure highly relied on by the county magistrate, there is no need to notify him, and he directly enters the back house.

After entering the back house, I realized that the county magistrate got up very early and was boxing in the yard at this time, and the fists and feet were very powerful.

Zhang Jingxu couldn't help feeling weird.

Obviously the county magistrate should be a scholarly scholar, but the one in front of him looks reckless like a military general. If he hadn't already known that he was the county magistrate of Yicheng, Zhang Jingxu would even think he was a general.

As a county magistrate, he has no official status.

And has a bad temper, always swearing...

What a weird contrast.

But if you think about it carefully, the county magistrate in front of you is only 17 years old. Although he looks mighty and full of flesh, he is only a teenager after all in terms of age.

It's inevitable for a young mind.

Besides, the family is still a royal family!
Strangeness is not a big deal at all...

……

At this time, the county magistrate also saw Zhang Jingxu, and immediately stopped boxing and practicing martial arts, and rushed to meet him, his expression obviously urgent.

Although it seemed urgent, he understood etiquette, and he called Uncle Zhang as soon as he opened his mouth, just like yesterday.

For this, Zhang Jingxu is not proud.

He is the magistrate of a county, calling uncle is to respect his age, but if he thinks himself right, he will commit a big taboo in the officialdom.

It is estimated that even Xiaobai, who has just entered the officialdom, would not make such superficial mistakes, but Zhang Jingxu spent half his life before crossing, he is an old idiot among old idiots.

Therefore, when facing the county magistrate, he behaved extremely solemnly. First, he bowed his hands in a polite manner, and then began to report formally:
"Reporting to the county lord, Mr. Zhang has returned from investigating the case. It is related to the case you entrusted yesterday. Mr. Zhang has led the servants to successfully investigate..."

"Now there are four murderers who have been arrested by the yamen servants and are currently being detained in the front yard, waiting for interrogation at the County Zunsheng Hall."

This report was rigorous and solemn, but the county magistrate was obviously disappointed, and asked in a low voice: "I heard what you said, and the four murderers were captured. Could it be that the case of the Sun Family Village was about people killing people, and no ghosts were involved?" The presence……"

If there were no ghosts involved, there would be no merit after the resolution. The county magistrate was originally full of hope, but now he was inevitably disappointed.

For this, Zhang Jing knew it well, so a smile appeared on his face.

He also lowered his voice, and said with hints: "Now that the criminal has been brought to justice, the county magistrate should immediately go to court, interrogate and convict, and appease the hearts of the people..."

"As for the interrogation of the human case, let Zhang explain the secrets of the ghost case."

The county magistrate was obviously reluctant to hear him urging him to be promoted, but soon his face was startled, and then turned into great surprise, and asked eagerly: "Uncle Zhang, what are you talking about? What is the secret of the ghost case? Could it be, Could it be..."

With this eager look, why does Zhang Jingxu not know what he is longing for?
Immediately, he reached into his bosom, took out the official seal, and handed it over with a smile: "Yesterday Zhang promised to distribute the seven successes to the county magistrate, and now he has successfully solved the prestige of the Sun Family Village, and he used this method to solve it." The official seal...so when the merits and virtues came down from heaven, Zhang directly used the official seal to receive [-]%."

The county magistrate was visibly excited, and his breathing was short of breath: "Uncle Zhang, can you tell me how much merit you earned last night?"

Regardless of his reckless personality, this guy actually has official knowledge in his speech.

Obviously he was eagerly looking forward to his share, and wanted to know the number of his share.But when he asked Zhang Jingxu how much he earned, he seemed polite and not greedy.

However, as long as Zhang Jingxu was asked how much he earned, he could figure out his share.Sure enough, officialdom is a university question, and the same words can be said to make people feel comfortable.

Zhang Jingxu can still see through the county magistrate's careful thinking.He continued to smile, and pretended to be satisfied in his tone: "Because of the ghosts involved, there are a lot of merits from heaven, and the total number of merits obtained is a full seventy."

Wahaha!

The county magistrate laughed out loud, his face full of excitement.

In one night, seventy merits and virtues, if seventy percent of them are given to him, wouldn't that be his hand49?

Cool!
The county magistrate just felt so cool!
But this guy didn't know at all that the seemingly loyal uncle in front of him was really thick-faced and dark-hearted.

Last night, there were a total of 1270 merit points from the sky. Although 1000 points were used by Zhang Jingxu to lure the magic weapon, the remaining amount was still as much as 270 merit points.

270 merits, directly deduct two hundred.

The reimbursement is only 49, and the account is divided into 21 and [-].The county magistrate started with [-], and Zhang Jingxu kept [-].

It seems that only 21 is kept.

But in fact, 1000 two hundred and 21.

However, even so, the county magistrate was full of excitement. From this, it can be seen how difficult the merits of this world are.Just 49 points of merit can surprise a royal family.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the county must be promoted quickly, interrogate criminals immediately, and send them to death row."

"Uncle Zhang, you have worked hard and worked hard to investigate the case. As the county magistrate, my nephew must help you finish it."

At this moment, the county magistrate was extremely active, dragging Zhang Jingxu with excitement on his face, and he was going to be promoted without saying a word.

However, at this moment, there was a sound coming from outside the county government office, 'dong dong dong dong' several times in succession, the noise was as loud as a drum beating.

That's right, it's really beating the drums.

Zhang Jingxu was slightly taken aback, while the county magistrate frowned slightly. Both of them could clearly distinguish that the sound outside was indeed the beating of drums.

What drum?

Shout out the grievance drum in front of the Yamen!
but.

Early in the morning, the Yaqian Drum was sounded...

How much injustice has occurred?
The Sunjiazhuang case has not yet been raised, could it be that there is a new case?
