And Xu is not an official, but only a "professional service" and is regarded as a "cheap service".

Tan Bantou belongs to Xu, the lowest official family member in the government office.The subordinate staff had no political future, and almost had no hope of career promotion for life.

He is in his early forties this year, and he has been a subordinate official in Chang'an City for half his life. He dreams of becoming a Liu Neiguan.

But he has neither money nor power, so if he wants to change from a petty official to a domestic official, it is simply a dream.

Today, he was leading a group of yamen servants drinking bad wine for fun in a wine shop, but he was found by accident, and he was ordered to guard the entrance of Xuandu Temple, waiting to catch a young man.

Going to the gate of Xuandu Temple to arrest people, the head of Tan Tan naturally dare not, even if he is drunk, he knows how much he weighs.

But the visitor promised him that he would be recommended as an internal official after his work was completed, which made Bantou Tan's heart flutter.

You must know that the person who asked him to do things was the trilogy of the Wang family in Taiyuan. As an old fritter in Wannian County of Chang'an City, Bantou Tan naturally knew this trilogy of the Wang family.

Not only did he know this part of the Wang family, but he also knew that this person was the confidant of Prince Qiao, the son of the Wang family.In other words, the person who really asked him to do things was Prince Qiao, the direct son of Taiyuan Wang's family.

With Taiyuan Wang's promise, Bantou Tan didn't care about whether to watch Xuandu or not, and directly led his servants who were dizzy from drinking to block the entrance of Xuandu Temple, waiting for Li to forget worry out.

In his eyes, it couldn't be easier to put the young man in the county government prison on any crime and clean him up.

Tan Bantou seemed to have seen himself wearing an official robe, and couldn't help laughing.

"Brothers, go to me, and arrest this little thief who stole other people's property!"

He turned his head and saw the gold-plated Taoist statue in Niu Wu's hand, and immediately shouted: "Do you see it, this is stolen goods!"

The abbot of Xuanduguan almost got his nose crooked, this Tan Bantou is going crazy!

Seeing that Niu Wu was still gripping the squad leader's arm tightly, the group of yamen servants, who were so drunk, simply pulled out the horizontal knife from their waists, planning to move him if there was any disagreement.

When Niu Wu saw that they had drawn their swords, he was afraid of hurting Li Wangyou, so he pushed Tan Bantou hard, protecting Li Wangyou behind him.

He didn't bring a knife with him today, so he just held the gilded statue of Daozu and confronted the group of servants.

The abbot of Xuanduguan also became nervous. It was obvious that the yamen servants had drunk too much. If someone misfired and caused them to hurt Li Wangyou, it would be a big deal.

"Stop, put down the knife! Put it down quickly!" Abbot Xuan Duguan rushed to the yamen servants in a panic, trying to snatch the horizontal knife from their hands...

210 A Good Show

Not far from Xuandu Guan, in the elegant room on the second floor of a restaurant, Wang Ziqiao was sitting by the window facing the street, drinking wine leisurely.

"Brother Ziqiao, why did you think of drinking with us today? Why did you choose this dilapidated restaurant? Let's go to Pingkangfang Painting Building for a drink."

The door of the elegant room was pushed open from the outside, and it was Cui Daogu, Cui Hong and Lu Siyang who came in.

"Haha, I invite you to watch a good show."

"Huh? What a good show?" Lu Siyang asked puzzled.

Wang Ziqiao pointed out the window triumphantly: "Isn't that a good show?"

Several people leaned over to the window and looked in the direction of Wang Ziqiao's finger, just in time to see the scene where Li Wangyou and Niu Wu were surrounded by yamen servants.

"Haha, brother Zi Qiao, your hobby is really special. It's just a farmer who needs someone to clean up, and you have to watch it with your own eyes." Cui Daogu laughed and said, "Why did that kid fall into your hands?"

It's good that he didn't mention it, but Wang Ziqiao was very angry when he mentioned it.

"Hmph, I'm in a good mood today, and I wanted to find a few scholars to accompany me to Xuandu to watch the flowers and relax, but in the end, unexpectedly, I bumped into this farm slave in the Xuandu temple."

Wang Ziqiao drank a glass of wine in one gulp: "Of course I couldn't just let him go like this, so I asked my family to find the Wannian County Yamen servant and prepare to deal with this bastard."

Cui Daogu clapped his hands and applauded: "Haha, that's really self-inflicted, it's unlucky for this kid!"

Wang Ziqiao spat: "Bah, it's my son who is even more unlucky! Today, I met Lu Kuan and Kong Yingda, two old fellows in Xuandu Temple. Several scholars who valued my family this year Chunwei offended him by mistake. Two old things. This young master can only give up those trash in one heart, it is really a waste of my hard work!"

What he said made Cui Daogu and the three of them look at each other, and they couldn't help laughing: "Haha, brother Ziqiao, then you are really unlucky today. But it's okay, take care of that kid, it will be considered as an outlet for you."

The yamen servant who blocked Li Wangyou was naturally the one Wang Ziqiao ordered his family to find. As for the recommendation he promised, it was just a matter of a word.

With Wang Ziqiao's face, it is easier to find an official position under the ninth rank for that group leader than to drink water.

He asked his family to go to the yamen servant to clean up Li Wangyou, and he didn't forget to let people inform those aristocratic dandies to come and watch the play together.

He was humiliated by Li Wangyou in Pingkang Square that day, and he also lost face in front of a few dandies, and he asked them to watch the show today to save his own face.

A few dandies were sitting on the restaurant laughing and laughing, drinking fine wine while watching the excitement at the entrance of Xuandu Temple.

In front of the gate of Xuandu Guan, the abbot rushed up to snatch the horizontal knives from the servants, but was kicked aside by the servants who were too drunk, and fell to the ground.

The little Taoist priests of the Taoist temple hurried forward, helped the abbot up, and glared at these lawless yamen servants.

"Both of them, lock them up for me! Take them back to the yamen!" Bantou Tan, who was so drunk, waved the horizontal knife in his hand and shouted at the yamen servants under him.

He feels very good now, as if he is not wearing a soap-colored official uniform, but a blue official uniform.

"Lang Jun, what should we do now?" Niu Wu was a little nervous, looking at the servants beside him who were wielding horizontal knives and rattling iron chains, he lost his mind for a while.

He was not afraid of these yamen servants, but worried that his husband would be injured.Even if he can overthrow a few yamen servants, it will be difficult for him to protect Li Wangyou comprehensively.

Li Wangyou knew that there was no reason to talk to these drunk people, even if he took out the goldfish amulet now, I am afraid that these government servants who were dizzy from drinking would not admit their identity.

It would be a bit wronged if they cut him down like this.

"Niu Wu, put down the statue, don't break it, I still have use for this statue. Let them lock it, don't resist. Hmph, I want to see, now that we are locked, how will they take it off later? !"

Niu Wu nodded, and gently put the statue of the Taoist ancestor aside, without any resistance, he let the yamen servants lock him with iron chains.

Seeing that the one-eyed strong man did not resist, all the yamen servants were relieved.

This burly man was so big that he was about to make a fuss, and they were also worried that they would be beaten up by this burly man.

"Haha, lock that kid up for me too! Take that god statue away too, this is evidence!" Seeing that Bantou Tan had controlled the situation, he laughed triumphantly.

Abbot Xuanduguan glared at Bantou Tan viciously with an angry expression on his face.

He could also tell that this guy was so drunk now that he even dared to beat and scold him, so it was useless to say anything now, let's take revenge later.

"Xiao Lang, I will go with you to the Wannian county government office. The poor Taoist of Lu Ming Mansion also knows him. The poor Taoist wants to seek justice from him. The poor Taoist has nothing to do with them today! A small team leader, How dare you be so rampant!"

His face was so angry that he turned purple, and he turned his head and told the little Taoist priest to go to the Wannian county government office to find Lu Mingfu now.

The farce at the gate of Xuandu Temple attracted many passers-by in Chongren Square to watch. The crowd blocked the road in front of Xuandu Temple, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

"Give way, give way to the ones in front, what are you doing blocking here?" There was a shout from outside the crowd, and then several strong men pushed aside the crowd of onlookers and squeezed in.

"Hey, you are from the Wannian County Government? Why are you arresting people in front of the Xuandu Guanmen?" the visitor asked.
