Daoist Lin sister [Red House]

Chapter 87 On Official Authority

Besides, Daiyu and the others had just sat down in the main room of the guest courtyard, and before they had time to look around or even discuss their next actions, someone knocked on the closed door of the guest courtyard.

Daiyu and Yongyu looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Who is coming?

Yang Yi volunteered to open the door.

The door opened, and standing behind it was a 30-year-old woman with a long face and willow eyebrows, who suddenly looked very demure and gentle.

The woman was surprised when she saw Yang Yi, who was so young and looked like a literati, and asked, "May I ask you, Mr. Yang, the steward of Mr. Meng's family who came to live here?"

"Exactly, do you dare to ask the girl's first and last name?" Fang asked after Yang Yi saluted.

The woman hurriedly bowed to return the salute, and said politely: "The slave's family is the personal maid of the wife of the mansion, her name is Bihe. Our wife heard that there are guests coming, so I specially ordered the slave's family to come and see, is there any place where the house is not well received? .Your guest, just speak up."

"It's easy to talk about, madam! I'll take the liberty to bother you, and I'm very grateful to the master for not giving up. I also invite Miss Bihe to sit in the room. Our girls are also here, so we can meet each other." Yang Yi invited .

That Bihe also seemed to have something to say, and followed into the door, but immediately turned around and locked the courtyard door again, and then followed Yang Yi into the main room.

At that time, Daiyu and Yongyu had already listened to their conversations.

"This lady is a warm-hearted person!" Daiyu said.

"But, I think, just now, the servant girl had a strange look in her eyes when she caught sight of Mr. Yong Yu." Yongyu said.

Daiyu nodded, "That's right. Look at her words and actions, she seems to be behind someone's back. Everything in this city is very weird, maybe I can find the crux of it from this maid."

The two were discussing, but they saw Bi He turned around and closed the courtyard door again, followed Yang Yi straight to the main room, stopped talking, and sat waiting for someone to enter the door.

"Is it Sister Bihe?" As soon as Bihe opened the curtain and entered the main room, Zijuan greeted her and asked with a smile.

"My younger sister just heard my elder sister talking by the window. If you dare to teach her to know, this is my girl." Zi Juan walked up to Daiyu with Bihe on her arm, pointed at Daiyu and said.

After the two of them met, Zijuan remembered, and forgot about Yongyu, stuck out her tongue quickly, and added: "This is my son, and now he is a scholar!"

Yongyu is a scholar?But it was to pretend to be the son of Mr. Meng's family in Jinling, and fabricated his identity.Now when he suddenly heard it, Yongyu was still quite uncomfortable, scratched his head, imitating the normal behavior of a bookworm, and made a bow to the Bihe girl.

Bi He was overwhelmed by the flattery, hurriedly dodged, and said in return: "Young master, you will be a slave! You will be a slave!"

Daiyu watched from the side and nodded secretly.This Bihe girl treats people well, speaks and acts with reason, and her attitude is amiable but does not make people feel humble. It seems that she should come from a wealthy family, and the background of this lady coming to the house may not be simple.

Sure enough, several people sat down to talk, and after a few words, Bihe said that her wife was originally from a famous family named Ke in the south, and her father was originally a high official in the frontier.It's a pity that the brothers are not up to date.After his father passed away, no one could inherit his mantle, but after three or five years, he became an ordinary official.

After hearing this, Daiyu felt that this lady's experience was very similar to that of Rongguo Mansion.The same famous family members, the same no successors, the same reduced speechless.

Yongyu heard this, but asked: "Could it be that the wife of your family is from the former governor of Yunnan, Ke Zhuo's family?"

Bi He's eyes widened, she quickly stood up, saluted Yong Yu again, and said, "Could it be that the young master has an old relationship with the master of the slave family? Bi He has eyes but no pearls, and treats the young master slowly!"

Yongyu hastily signaled Zijuan to help her up, rubbed her nose and said: "Ahem, Miss Bihe, I am young, but I have no chance to see General Ke's past demeanor. But General Ke's name is like thunder, and we children also I've heard of it before. It's a pity that the tiger father and son—"

Yong Yu accidentally said what was in his heart, and seeing the embarrassed look on Bi He's face, he quickly changed his words and asked, "Then why did Mrs. Ke marry far away in Ping'an Prefecture?"

Bi He lowered her eyes and said: "It's a long story. Our uncle was originally the youngest son of a young general under the master's command. My uncle's father died in an accident while guarding the border. Since then, my uncle has been taken into the house by the master. He has been raised for more than 20 years. When I was young, the master sent my uncle to the capital to study and take the exam. My uncle was so proud that he took the title of the gold list and got a Jinshi. When he came back, he proposed marriage to my girl. The master was happy that there was a successor in the old department, so he agreed to this marriage. Over the years, my uncle He was an official everywhere, and the girl followed him all the time. Speaking of which, it was more than 20 years ago."

When this Bihe mentioned the old affairs of the Ke Mansion in the past, the corners of her brows and eyes were full of pride; but when she talked about her uncle, she was always untrue, secretive, and quite difficult to explain.

After hearing this, Yongyu clapped his hands and sighed, "No wonder! No wonder!"

But he was feeling that it was no wonder that the magistrate was so fearless and daring.His father-in-law's family is so powerful!It's a pity that it's gone tomorrow.What's more, if the magistrate is really involved in the weird incident in Ping'an Prefecture, it's really embarrassing that the daughter of Ke Zhuo, the majestic Zhennan General, married such a man with a beastly face and a wolf heart!

"Boy Jiumu Ke's name, I wonder if I can go inside with my sister to visit Mrs. Ke?" Yong Yu asked.

Daiyu also hurriedly nodded in agreement.She had also heard about Ke Zhuo's deeds.Before General Yue guarded the southwest, Ke Zhuo guarded the twelve checkpoints in the southwest with a single silver gun, and no barbarians dared to enter.It is said that even those unwitted savages in the Hundred Thousand Mountains ran away when they heard Ke Zhuo's name.It can be seen that the prestige of the Ke family army.

It's a pity that 18 years ago, Ke Zhuo died unexpectedly and the Southwest fell. Even the former emperor had a headache for a long time.It wasn't until General Yue suddenly emerged and took over Ke Zhuo's silver spear that the Southwest became stable again.

A hero is easy to grow old, let alone a hero is dead.After Ke Zhuo left, his sons took over the military power, but they couldn't convince the crowd. After losing several battles, they were forced to step down by their subordinates.Since then, there has been no Ke family army, and no one has heard of General Ke's children.

Even before Daiyu and the others set off, they checked the origins of the officials in Pingan Prefecture many times, but they didn't find out that the prefect Liu was actually Ke Zhuo's son-in-law!

Seeing Yongyu and others begging to see her, Bihe said in a difficult way: "My wife wanted to see you all in person, but it's a pity that it's inconvenient and inconvenient to move around, so I ordered my servants to come."

What is the reason for this?

Yongyu and Daiyu looked at each other in blank dismay.

It was Yang Yi who interjected: "Miss Bihe is here, but what do you want me to tell you to wait?"

After listening to Yang Yi for a long time, apart from feeling the same fate as Daiyu, he also discovered something strange in the prefect's backyard.

From Bi He taking the initiative to lock the door after entering the house, to self-reporting the house, even telling strangers about everything about her natal family, to the fact that the head mother is inconvenient to walk around to meet guests, everything shows that there is something strange in this house!

Sure enough, upon hearing the words, Bi He got up and walked to the window, broke the paper on the window, and after confirming that there was no one around, Fang said: "Everyone, you'd better leave this Ping'an State as soon as possible, set off overnight, and don't come back again!"

...............

The story is divided into two parts, let's talk about Lin Ruhai coaxing and deceiving Yu Li.First, he frightened Na Yuli and forced him to ask many secrets about Ping'an Prefecture; then he pretended to be crazy and acted foolishly, giving full play to the "five poisons" of corruption and greed, and found a lot of "people's fat and people's ointment" from Yuli. Thinking it wasn't enough, before leaving, he also knocked on a set of Tang Bohu's "Spring, Palace, and Picture" by Yu Li!

This is another interesting story, so I won't show it at this time.

Lin Ruhai left Zhushan County, took off the tiger skin of his imperial envoy again, and headed for Ping'an Prefecture with drums and gongs.

Coincidentally, God is also beautiful.For the past few days, there has been no wind or rain. The journey was originally planned for three days, but within a day and a half, Lin Ruhai finished the journey.

Lin Ruhai was sitting in the official sedan chair, and a clerk raised the curtain of the sedan chair and said to him, "My lord, the city of Ping'an Prefecture has arrived. The magistrate of Ping'an Prefecture and all the prefects and county magistrates are here to welcome you at the gate of the city!"

"Oh?" Lin Ruhai raised his eyelids, glanced into the distance, and asked knowingly, "Why can't he wait ten miles, but just stand there?"

Acting needs to be full of acting. Since you want to play the role of official authority, how can you give up halfway?

Hearing Lin Ruhai's words, the clerk showed embarrassment on his face, but he didn't dare to answer. He ran to the opposite side of the ranks of officials from Ping'an Prefecture, panting, and conveyed Lin Ruhai's original words.

Tu Guangwen, the magistrate of Pingan Prefecture, heard the words, took off his official hat, tucked the back of his official uniform into his belt, and did not ride a horse, so he trotted all the way to the place where Lin Ruhai was stationed in a sedan chair.

Behind them, a large group of officials, big and small, looked at each other, followed the same pattern, took off their official hats, picked up their backs, ignored their appearance, and ran one after another, out of breath, to meet Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai sat in the official sedan chair, supported himself with one hand, and watched the excitement with cold eyes.

What an ecological map of officialdom!

snort!A group of wolves, tigers and leopards in Ping'an Prefecture eat people without spitting out their bones, domineering, and roam the state for many years.And judging from the letters that Daiyu and the others sent him along the way, these officials heard that he was coming, but they were not afraid at all.

But, now, seeing him coming, in front of him, each one is better at acting than the other!This running appearance is like burning his butt, he is in a hurry, and he is more dedicated than the clowns and actors on stage!It would be a great loss for Liyuanxing to let them be parents' officials!

The lower their current posture, the greater the conspiracy and power behind them!

If Lin Ruhai is fascinated by illusions, once he takes it lightly and underestimates these people, he will definitely die without knowing how!

"This Ping'an Prefecture is really a dragon's pond and a tiger's den!" Lin Ruhai whispered.

Beside the sedan door, the clerk who had rushed to report the letter just now had just rushed back. Hearing Lin Ruhai's whisper, he thought he had some orders, so he hurriedly listened to him and asked, "No, I don't know, sir. Do you have any orders?"

Lin Ruhai waved his hand to signal the scribe to step back, but suddenly kicked on his official boots, kicking a brand new official boot onto the muddy ground.

Coincidentally, the place where Lin Ruhai parked his sedan chair was under the sun, and there were people walking back and forth, and a lot of thin ice was trampled to pieces.As the sun shines, the crushed ice melts and mixes with the soil, forming a muddy land.

Unfortunately, by coincidence, Lin Ruhai kicked his boots onto the muddy ground just as Tu Guangwen, the magistrate, arrived in front of him!

An official boot flew obliquely in front of Tu Guangwen, right between him and Lin Ruhai.

Official boots, mud.
