Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

"Get up quickly to greet Magistrate Zhang." Tan Yue winked at everyone and went up to greet him.

"I see you, Magistrate Zhang. I'm really ashamed to disturb your rest late at night."

When I looked up, I almost lost my temper. I saw everyone standing, except Fan Xin, who was sitting alone, slowly sipping tea.

"It's really rotten wood that can't be carved. If you don't even have this bit of vision, how can you become such a big deal!" Tan Yue cursed secretly and shouted.

"Fan Xin, why don't you get up quickly and greet me when the Ming Dynasty in this county arrives!"

"Forget it, sit down without being polite." Magistrate Zhang glanced at Fan Xin, who was sitting on the main seat, and looked at Tan Yue.

"Old Tan, what business do you have with this county in the middle of the night?"

Seeing his father-in-law and the others looking at him, Tan Yue took a deep breath and said bravely.

"To be honest, I am here to beg for mercy from you. Can you show your noble hand and help the people of Wang Village?"

After speaking, he looked at Magistrate Zhang cautiously. The case in Dawang Village involved the governor's office. He was afraid that asking for mercy at this time would anger Magistrate Zhang.

Fan Zhonghua and Tie Quan also had nervous expressions on their faces. Whether the nine people in Dawang Village could survive tonight all depended on a word from Magistrate Zhang.

Under the gaze of everyone, Magistrate Zhang said with a smile.

"That's it. I thought it was a big case."

"Don't worry, I will send a car to take the folks from Dawang Village back to the village early tomorrow morning. I guarantee that lunch will not be missed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, especially Tan Yue, who couldn't believe it.

As a county lieutenant, no one knows the complexity of the case better than him.

It is almost impossible to rescue people under the eyes of the governor's office.

He was even prepared to be scolded, but he never expected that Magistrate Zhang would let him go without saying anything for his own sake.

He also personally sent a carriage to take people back to Dawang Village.

This face!

This affection!

This kind of respect, I have to say, makes people feel like a scholar would die for his confidant.

Thinking of this, his voice trembled and he said: "County Magistrate Zhang, are you saying that you won't kill the people of Dawang Village anymore?"

"I won't kill him." Magistrate Zhang said with emotion: "The weight is here, I can't help but give him face."

"The governor's office can only find a way to deal with it!"

Hearing this, Tan Yue couldn't bear it anymore. The dignified county official even went to the trouble of offending the governor's office in order to save his face.

How can this not move people?

"This official from the Ming Dynasty admires the kindness of the Ming Dynasty. I will do my best to resign one day!"

After saying that, he took Fan Xin, his son and Tie Quan out of the hall. He believed that as magistrate Zhang, he would not be able to deceive him.

Since it is said that they will be released, they will definitely be sent to Dawang Village safely.

Looking at the backs of several people, Magistrate Zhang looked at Chang Sui with an inexplicable expression.

"I chose to let him go in order to curry favor with Cheng Xiaonan's brother. Why is he so excited?"

"Lieutenant Tan may be a temperamental person, and he was moved by your selfless act."

"Forget it, leave him alone. I have to accompany my god sister to enjoy the banquet at Tai Feng Tower."

"Remember, I will give each person two hundred copper coins later to express my feelings."

On the other side, after coming out of the county government office, Tan Yue straightened his sleeves in high spirits and said proudly.

"Fan Xin, did you see that this is the weight of a ninth-grade county captain!"

"As long as I say no matter how complicated the case is, Magistrate Zhang will have to let me go!"

"Learn from your brother-in-law in the future. If you are too advanced, I dare not say that I can still protect you as a ninth-grade official in twenty years!"

"Yes, Erlang, your brother-in-law is so capable. He saved nine lives in our village with just a casual word. This is not something that can be done by reading a few books." Tie Quan said with emotion.

"Why don't you thank your brother-in-law for the promotion?" Fan Zhonghua poked his son.

Fan Xin gave a wry smile and raised his hand to the arrogant Tan Yuegong.

"So thank you brother-in-law for your support."

"Well, if you are still sensible, come to the Yamen for work in two days, starting as a tax collector."

With that said, he stepped on the carriage and drove away, never letting the father and son stay at his house for a night.

Fan Zhonghua didn't care and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go back to the village."

On the way back, the luxurious carriage appeared again and drove the father and son towards Xiaolianzi Village.

Looking at the dark mountains and forests, Fan Zhonghua spoke earnestly.

"Xin'er, Dad knows that you feel uncomfortable. You have been reduced from a seventh-grade county magistrate to a commoner, and you can't accept it for a while."

"To be honest, being a father is not what it feels like, but people have to look forward. When the official position is gone, it will be gone. It's better to start as a tax collector."

"When things stabilize in two years, then we can marry a wife and give birth to some fat grandchildren. Then our family will have no regrets."

"Your brother-in-law is a sarcastic, snobbish, and sometimes harsh person, so I just tolerated being a servant under him."

"Did you hear that?"

Fan Xin smiled and nodded: "I know dad, I know what to do."

It was already early in the morning when they got home. When Zhou and Fan Xiaolan heard that Tan Yue had saved nine lives with just one sentence, they both had complicated expressions.

However, they did not dare to say anything in front of Fan Xin, for fear of irritating Fan Xin.

Before going to bed, Fan Xin went to the latrine and heard Mrs. Zhou sighing as he passed by the window.

"His dad, why don't you sell the nanmu coffin at home and raise some money for Xin'er to take the imperial examination again."

"His brother-in-law is mean by nature, and working for him is not a long-term solution."

"Okay, I'll go to the market tomorrow to find a buyer. Don't tell Xin'er first. I'm afraid he won't be able to accept it because of his strong temper."

"I know, go to sleep."

Fan Xianxin looked at the sky and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes before returning to the house.

After a while, I hurried to the toilet again, clutching my stomach...

……

Luoyang, Royal Road.

As soon as the guards guarding the city gate opened the city gate, they saw dozens of cavalry running in the distance. They were so frightened that they quickly formed a formation to meet the enemy.

It wasn't until they saw the red feather flag on the back of the cavalry that they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Quick! Get out of the way, there is an urgent message from Youzhou 800 miles away!"

The words fell to the ground.

Dozens of cavalry rushed through the city gate toward the inner city with a whoosh.

Arriving in front of the palace gate, dozens of red-feathered cavalrymen suddenly pulled their reins, and their front hooves rose into the air.

The leader pointed at his subordinates.

"You go to Feng Pavilion!"

"You go to Luantai!"

"You go to the palace!"

"You go to the Ministry of War!"

"Go to the main hall of Shangyang Palace and tell the Queen Mother, the Six Ministries, the Nine Ministers and the Twenty-four Si Yamen that Fan Xin has been found!"

Dozens of red-feathered cavalry clasped their fists: "General, I will obey your orders!"

next moment.

Dozens of war horses went in their respective directions.

drive!

drive!

All the way to the main hall of Shangyang Palace, the red feather messenger jumped off his horse and ran towards the main hall.

The loud voice resounded over the main hall of Shangyang Palace for a long time.

"Report! Urgent in Youzhou 800 Miles, Fan Xin has been found!
