Before anyone could react, Du He pointed at Zou Lujun next to Dou Xianren and said, "Is this the famous Mr. Zou, the magistrate of Dali County?"
Zou Lujun was so drunk that he was drunk. Hearing this, he actually smiled and cupped his hands.
But I heard Du He say: "I heard that Mr. Zou fell into a latrine while walking at night last night, and his limbs were broken. Therefore, he cannot come to welcome me to take office today. Now it seems that everything is fine!"
"you……"
Zou Lujun was furious. He was about to explode, but Dou Xianren shook his head and stopped him.
Dou Xianren stepped forward and said: "Master Marquis, as a special commander of Tongzhou, your duty is to assist the governor in governing Tongzhou. You have no right to interfere with the defense of Tongzhou, let alone to hear the case. Now you are here in Tongzhou.
When the day came, he first hung the city guard on the city tower to make the people laugh, then took the city guard and the officers and soldiers who were guarding the city to the government office without asking any questions and tortured them severely. He also took over the defense of the city gate of Dali County. That's all.
Two, I’m afraid someone with intentions will spread the news to the capital, and if His Majesty finds out, he won’t let you go so easily!”
Du He suddenly stood up and asked: "Are you threatening me?"
"Mr. Hou, as the saying goes, don't do anything absolutely, and leave a hint in everything so that we can meet each other easily in the future. This official is just reminding Mr. Hou." Dou Xianren said coldly.
Snapped.
Du He picked up the desk ruler and slapped it. The desk ruler, which had not been used for many years, actually broke into three pieces.
Everyone was shocked.
I thought Du He was going to get angry again.
Unexpectedly, Du He said with a smile: "Dou Sima, what you said makes sense. In this case, I will listen to you... Let's all disperse. I have already investigated the crimes of Zhang Dana and others.
, I’ll give you an explanation another day!”
Du He waved his hand.
When the people saw this, they hesitated and finally left.
As everyone walked, they murmured in a low voice: "I thought that the new Mr. Du could do justice to everyone, but I never thought that he and the Dou family were the same!"
"Every official in the world is the same. When have you ever seen a white crow?"
"Let's go, all officials are like birds!"
Everyone sighed.
Du He heard this but didn't care at all.
When the officials from the same state saw this, they all looked happy.
It seems that Du He and I are the same thing, so what is there to be afraid of?
I saw officials stepping forward one after another.
"Master Hou, congratulations on taking office!"
"When Lord Marquis comes to my Tongzhou, it really makes the people of Tongzhou resplendent!"
"From now on, we will definitely follow Lord Hou's lead!"
Everyone flattered him one after another and worked hard to please Du He.
Du He said happily: "Let me go to the backyard. Today I take office, I must celebrate it!"
"good!"
Everyone followed Du He to the backyard.
Dou Xianren couldn't help but said: "Master Hou, what happened today is indeed that Dou did something improperly. Dou had the courage to invite Master Hou to Miaoxian Tower so that he could hold a banquet to apologize!"
Du He raised his hand to stop him and said: "No, I have just taken office and I want Dou Sima to treat me. How can I justify it? Don't worry, we will have food today. Let's go to the backyard first. Let's talk and chat. You guys
You might as well introduce the customs and customs of this Tongzhou to me!"
"Yes, yes, what the Marquis said makes sense, there are still many good things in Tongzhou!"
"Yes, Tongzhou Women's Tournament Jiangnan!"
Everyone sat down in the backyard, and Dou Xianren introduced many officials to Du He.
Du He started chatting with everyone.
Everyone just thought he wanted to know about the situation in Tongzhou, but they didn't know that Du He was secretly sizing up the people present.
Soon, Du He discovered that there were two people in the crowd who looked very special.
One is Tongzhou Governor Shi Yangcheng, and the other is Tongzhou Sitian Chen Hongyi.
Although these two people were also very enthusiastic, they didn't want Zou Lujun and others. After their enthusiasm wore off, they fell in love with Duheba to the extreme.
In the eyes of Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi, Du He saw suspicion, distrust, and even a hint of contempt.
Instead of being angry, Du He showed a playful smile.
It was already evening.
Du He stood up, patted his butt and said, "Everyone, I thank you for your enthusiasm, so now I want to treat you to dinner. You must give me this face!"
"That's natural!"
"The Marquis is treating you to a treat, who dares not to go?"
In the crowd, Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi looked at each other and shook their heads in disappointment.
Yang Cheng stood up and said: "Master Hou, please forgive me, but there is an old mother who is seriously ill in the lower official's home. I must rush back to take care of her. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the banquet!"
Du He smiled and waved his hand: "Filial piety comes first among all good deeds. Yang Changshi can be regarded as a role model for our generation. Okay, you can go back. The Japanese official will definitely take time to visit the old man in your house tomorrow."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
Chen Hongyi also stood up and said: "Master Hou, my wife is going to give birth. I have to go back immediately. I can't attend the banquet. Please forgive me, Master Hou!"
Du He nodded: "Okay, okay, the world is huge, and having children is the biggest. Chen Sitian goes back quickly and will visit another day."
Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi quickly left the government office.
Zou Lujun and others gathered around and said one after another: "Master Hou, you don't know something. Although Yang Cheng's old mother is older, she is very strong and not sick at all. There is also Chen Hongyi's wife, who is said to be still alive."
It will take half a month to give birth... Mr. Hou, these two people are like worms in Tongzhou. They are often disrespectful and lawless. Even the governor does not look down on them. It is really a heinous crime. Now they even even Mr. Hou
Even if they don’t give you any face, Lord Marquis, don’t let them off easily.”
"Master Hou, in October last year, Yang Chenggong took bribes and violated the law. If the governor hadn't been lenient, I'm afraid he would be in jail now."
"Chen Hongyi is the most abominable. He often allows his servants to oppress the people!"
Everyone seemed to be discussing it, and they all jumped up to accuse Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi.
Du He smiled and nodded: "I have always been generous, but if you don't give me face, you don't give face to the governor, and you don't give face to your majesty... This kind of thing, after I settle down, I will definitely investigate and get to the bottom of it.
!”
When everyone saw this, they were overjoyed.
Du He, a young boy, was fooled and taken down like this.
Everyone saw that Du He behaved like a fool, and their original defenses were completely lowered.
Just listen to Du He say: "It's getting late, let's go, I have prepared a sumptuous feast of good wine and food for everyone, come with me!"
Everyone followed Du He and walked out.
When they came outside, Du He walked in front, followed by everyone.
As we walked, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
The direction Du He walked turned out to be the west of the city.
The west part of the city is famous for being dirty and messy in Dali County. It is a typical poor gathering area. There are no decent places to eat, not to mention good restaurants.
In the entire Dali County, the most prosperous areas are in the north and south of the city?
Everyone was a little confused, but they didn't dare to ask.
