The total area of ​​the Qianshan County Yamen is close to 8,000 square meters. It is entered through the gate. In the middle is a corridor about ten meters long. On both sides are the Yinbin room, the third class (yamen servant) room, the prison cell, and the dining room.

After walking along the corridor, you are facing the Yimen. After passing the Yimen is the lobby, which is where the county magistrate usually goes to court to hear cases. Behind the lobby is the second hall, and on both sides of the second hall are the county magistrate's office and the main office.

In other words, this is where the second-in-command and the third-in-command work.

There is a third hall behind the second hall. The third hall is connected to the West Flower Hall and the East Flower Hall, as well as the back garden. They are all the places where the magistrate lives and eats. The magistrate's family members all live here.

At this time, heart-wrenching cries were heard in the third hall of the county government. The body of Wu Linguang, the county magistrate, was placed on a stretcher in the middle of the hall. The blood on his face had been wiped clean, and his family members were kneeling around and crying.

You have to shout at the sky and grab the earth.

Xu Jin led a group of civil and military officials to comfort him by saying a few words of comfort. They were nothing more than saying that people cannot be resurrected, so please forgive him and submit to him.

Wu Linguang's first wife, Jiang, was in her forties, and she was old and beautiful. She lay on her husband's body and cried until she burst into tears. After all, they had been married for decades, and now the yin and yang are separated, which is bragging.

!

Wu Lin Guangxina's concubine was only eighteen years old, but she was quite pretty, with fair skin. She knelt there silently, with her body showing alluring curves. The generals behind Xu Jin couldn't help but look at her more.

A few glances.

This concubine was taken in by Wu Linguang at the end of last year. For an eighteen-year-old girl to marry an old man in his forties, there was naturally no emotion at all, so the concubine did not cry while kneeling, and there was no sadness on her face.

color.

Jiang, who was crying loudly, suddenly raised his hand and slapped his concubine, and cursed: "Shameless bitch, broom star, I have never had a peaceful life since I took you in, and now you are killing me."

The concubine covered her cheek and said aggrievedly: "Madam, how can this matter be blamed on this concubine? It's not my concubine who asked the master to go to the city."

Wu Linguang took a concubine in and stayed in her room almost every night. Jiang had already accumulated a lot of resentment. When he saw that this "bitch" dared to talk back, he suddenly exploded and grabbed her.

The concubine raised her hand and gave her two big slaps on the front of her clothes, while yelling: "Wild dog~ Japanese bitch, you still dare to talk back, right? I will kill you today!"

The concubine was obviously not a fuel-efficient person. After being slapped, she couldn't bear it anymore. She pinched Jiang's neck with one hand and pulled her hair with the other, screaming: "Old Yu Granny, if I fight you, I'll die at worst!"

As a result, the two women started fighting in front of everyone, and the concubine's clothes were torn apart.

Yu Linsheng, Xiong Bai, Wang Duo, Qiu Man, Luo Hong and other generals were all dumbfounded. This was... too hot!

"This is unreasonable, it is really insulting to gentlemen!" Mengxian Cheng turned away with a flick of his sleeves.

Disciples of saints, don’t look at anything inappropriate!

Xu Jin frowned and drank several times to stop, but the two women were fighting like crazy. Even if you are the emperor, you can't stop them.

At first, several of Jiang's children gathered around to break up the fight, but when they saw that their mother was getting the upper hand by the concubine, the fight turned into a group fight. The family held down the concubine, and then allowed Jiang to beat her.

Xu Jin saw that the commotion was getting more and more outrageous, so he ordered his generals to step forward and force the fighting parties to separate. Luo Hong took a step forward and helped the concubine up. He took some of the concubine's hands intentionally or unintentionally, and felt secretly happy.

After finally persuading both parties, Xu Jin left the back hall after saying some words, not wanting to stay for a moment longer. As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs, and he was too lazy to take care of such nonsense, as he still had a lot of official duties, etc.

Let him handle it.

The group left the back hall, and Xu Jin looked back at the master, Bo Fang Tianlu, who was last. He was fat and had difficulty walking. His face was pale and he looked distracted. He probably hadn't escaped death yet.

Come back to your senses.

Xu Jin said calmly: "Master Fang Bo, you don't need to follow me anymore. You can be responsible for handling the funeral affairs of Wuzhi County."

Hearing this, Fang Tianlu felt like he was receiving an amnesty, so he followed Xu Jin all morning. This fellow was already so tired that his knees hurt. What's more, he almost went to hell this time. Even if he was killed, he would not dare to follow Xu Jin to the top of the city to supervise the battle.

He quickly said: "I will obey my orders and I will handle the affairs of the county magistrate properly."

The reason why Xu Jin didn't let Fang Tianlu follow him was not out of pity for him, but because this guy walked slowly and would be a burden to follow, so he found an excuse to leave him alone. It couldn't help him much anyway.

Xu Jin nodded, and asked Fang Tianlu to take care of the daily affairs of the county government, and then led the generals to the county government.

Luo Hong turned around and glanced at the back office, licking his lips as if aftertaste. This scene naturally fell into the eyes of Fang Tianlu behind him, and he couldn't help but reveal a hint of contempt at the corner of his mouth, and said secretly: "Hey, these big-headed soldiers look like they have never seen women before.

of!"

It was almost noon when Xu Jin led the crowd back to the Tongpan Yamen. As soon as they entered the gate, they saw several girls waiting there with anxious expressions.

"Ms. Xie Xiaowan!" When Xie Xiaowan saw Xu Jin, she immediately ran over, with the beautiful maid Yue'er following closely behind.

Fei Ruyi also trotted over with her skirt in hand, her pretty face full of worry.

Xu Jin couldn't help but be a little surprised, why did everyone run out?

Xie Xiaowan nervously "checked" Xu Jin up and down and found that he was not injured. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with lingering fear: "Ms. sir, I heard that you were pinned down by bricks and stones, which scared people."

Xu Jin couldn't help but suddenly realized that some talkative soldier must have informed Xiaowan about his distress in the morning. No wonder the little girl ran to the front yard to wait nervously.

Xu Jin smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, isn't your husband a good person? Come in, we will be busy now."

Fei Ruyi looked at Xu Jin who was covered in dust and his face was dirty. His heart felt like being pricked by needles. She subconsciously took out her handkerchief to wipe Xu Jin's face and said softly: "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. Now,

It’s already past lunch time, so I’d better go in to eat first and change my clothes while I’m at it, you’re dirty!”

The military commander behind Xu Jin looked at each other ambiguously. There are rumors that Master Tongpan and Miss Fei San... Hehe, it seems to be true. Miss Fei San is really beautiful, and Master Tongpan is very blessed!

A group of generals had just seen the concubine from Wuzhi County and thought she was very pretty. Now when compared with Fei Ruyi in front of them, they were immediately overshadowed and turned into scum. It is precisely because there is no harm without comparison!

Fei Ruyi wiped Xu Jin's face completely subconsciously. After she finished doing it, she realized that it seemed to have transcended her identity. She suddenly became pretty, her face turned red, and she lowered her head shyly.

Xu Jin turned around to face the generals, coughed lightly and said: "Um...I'm going to change and wash myself first. You all should go to eat first, and we'll go to the council hall in a few minutes to discuss matters."

Yu Linsheng chuckled and said: "Haha, Sir Tongpan, if you please, I won't delay you!"

The generals dispersed with ambiguous expressions on their faces, without delaying the blessing of Lord Tongpan.

…

Xu Jin and the girls returned to the backyard and got cleaned up under the service of Xie Xiaowan and Yue'er.

"Sir, if a gentleman doesn't stand behind a dangerous wall, he can just leave the fighting and killing to those warriors in the future. There is no need to go to such a dangerous place at the top of the city. Today is the day when the master is auspicious. If something bad happens, let Madam

What will we do with Yue'er in the future? You don't know that when Dabao came back and told us that the magistrate was crushed to death, we were almost scared to death."

The beautiful maid Yue'er wiped the plaster on the back of Xu Jin's neck with a handkerchief, while pouting her little lips and complaining.

Xu Jin hugged Xie Xiaowan in front of him and said apologetically: "Madam, I'm sorry for making you worry."

Xie Xiaowan's eyes softened and she said gently: "My husband, please don't say that. You shoulder a heavy responsibility, which is related to the life and death of the people in the city. How could Xiaowan not understand that it is just because my husband has such a heavy responsibility that he should pay more attention to his own safety."

Xu Jin felt a little guilty in his heart. In order to boost his morale these past few days, he had indeed been a little aggressive. At the same time, he had neglected the people who cared about him at home. He said sternly: "My lady is right, my husband has learned a lesson!

"

Seeing that her husband was "obedient", Xie Xiaowan smiled sweetly and said, "Yue'er, go get the hot food from the pot."

After Xu Jin had changed and washed himself, he walked out of the inner room. Fei Ruyi and Ru Hua were waiting outside. When the former saw Xu Jin coming out, a pair of beautiful eyes immediately looked at him eagerly.

The Fei family is a local aristocratic family in Qianxian County, so they naturally own real estate in the city. It happens that the Fei family's house in the city is on the same street as the Tongpan Yamen, only a few dozen meters apart, so Fei Ruyi has to go there almost every day these days.

Come and sometimes even stay for dinner.

Stepmother Zhao's mentality has now changed. Instead of stopping this, she is actually a little happy to see it happen, while Fei Hong and Yuan turned a blind eye and adopted a tacit attitude.

"Mr. Xu, this is the nourishing snow pigeon soup that our girl has stewed for you. Try it!" He brought a cup of stew in front of Xu Jin as if he were offering a treasure in a painting.

"Master, my wife also made you duck soup!"

At this time, Yue'er came back from the kitchen with vegetables, walked quickly to the table, took out a cup of stew from the basket, put it in front of Xu Jin's face, and pushed the snow pigeon soup aside.

After entering the painting, he flattened his mouth and said: "Yue'er, the old duck soup is as delicious as the snow pigeon soup. It's so delicious!"

Yue'er said tit for tat: "You don't know how to stew. The old duck stewed by Madam is not sour. It tastes great. Master, please drink it while it's hot!"

"Mr. Xu, let's drink the snow pigeon soup first. My girl stewed it for a long time. I dare not let it down."

Although Xie Xiaowan and Fei Ruyi have reached a tacit understanding, it does not mean that their girls will not be "jealous" for their master.

Student Xu was in a dilemma now. The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh. It didn’t matter who drank it first. The blessing of being together is really not that easy to enjoy.

Xu Jin hesitated for a moment, but finally reached for the old duck soup. Yue'er raised her chin proudly and pursed her lips as she entered the painting. Although Fei Ruyi looked normal, her eyes darkened obviously and she lowered her head.

"My husband... uh!" Xie Xiaowan was about to ask her husband to drink the snow pigeon first, but she suddenly choked in the middle of her words because someone had already picked up two cups of soup and poured them into the plate at the same time, mixed them together, and then drank them calmly.

Both Yue'er and Ru Hua were dumbfounded. The former said in a dignified manner: "Master, you... why are you drinking like this? It tastes bad!"

Xu Jin said seriously: "No, it tastes good like this!"

Fei Ruyi burst out laughing, and quickly covered her mouth, her pretty face flushed, and giggled, while Xie Xiaowan rolled her eyes at her husband in a funny way.

"Fortunately, brother is smart and brave!"

Xu Jinzheng was secretly rejoicing when he took out a plate of bacon and stir-fried winter bamboo shoots from the food box, while Yue'er also took out a plate of braised pork from the basket.

The two maids looked at Xu Jin with smiles, and Fei Ruyi and Xie Xiaowan also looked at him with beautiful eyes.

Xu Jin couldn't help but secretly sweat. Just when he was hesitating whether to be "tactful and brave" again, Dabao, the servant, walked in hurriedly, sweating profusely and said: "Young master is not good, Qianshan Qianhu and Yiyang Qianhu are in trouble."

The big soldiers are about to start a fight at the county government office. Master, go quickly, the others can't hold them back!"

Xu Jin's expression changed and he stood up quickly: "What's going on?"

Dabao spread his hands and said, "It was Li Ming, the county government's chief catcher, who came to report the news. I don't know exactly why."

Xu Jin did not dare to neglect at the moment, and quickly summoned a group of soldiers, and asked Yu Linsheng to mobilize 300 people. He rushed towards the county government office angrily. Damn, these idle bastards, I can't even eat a meal.

born!

Xu Jin was really furious at this moment. There was a huge enemy outside, and these bastards were actually fighting among themselves.
