The texture of the wooden sign that came out of nowhere was unknown, it was like the hot black iron. It frightened Magistrate Chai so much that he didn't dare to pick it up, but he didn't dare to throw it away. He felt restless while holding it in his hand, pacing around in the room. Round after round.
Xia Shang didn't know what the badge was, so he threw it out and tried it. Unexpectedly, Magistrate Chai County reacted like this, shouting "Head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate".
Could it be that as I thought, this waist badge is a token of "the first seat of the Metropolitan Procuratorate"?
In this case, why did Lu Xun give it to him? He was thinking about the sentence "From now on, you are me..."
Does he mean to pass the first position to me?
Thinking of this, Xia Shang's scalp went numb and he secretly screamed, "What the hell is this treacherous guy doing?"
No, no!
Why did he give me the token before it was too late for him to hate me? Could it be that he was using the token as bait to let the masters of the Metropolitan Procuratorate kill me for revenge?
This is a must-have!
Xia Shang's thoughts were like lightning, and he immediately found a way to get the best of both worlds.
"Master Chai, do you know who you have offended now?"
The firewood manager finally stopped and wiped the sweat from his head: "This, this, this...where did you get this?"
“Wherever it comes from, that’s where it comes from.”
"Could it be...could it be the body of the deceased master? Then that...that master is...is he the head of the Inspectorate?"
When the words came out of his mouth, Chai Guan knew that he was in danger of death.
He howled in despair: "My life is at an end!"
After saying this, he fell to the ground, his legs losing strength!
Only then did Chai Guan realize that the man who died in this county had a very high status. How could such an identity be explained away by just one or two vague words? I thought that the prefect had been hiding his identity and just comforted himself to relax. Come on. I will definitely take care of things, and things will be over soon.
It turns out that you are not helping yourself at all, but fooling you! I am afraid that I have already thought about using myself as a scapegoat to receive the holy wrath!
What is the status of the head of the Inspectorate? Although it is a third-level official position, one person has the responsibility of thousands of people. No matter the prince or general, if the Inspectorate wants you to die, you will not survive for two days. The dignitaries in the capital When he sees the head of the Inspectorate, he will be frightened to death. How can a small county magistrate bear the anger of the Inspectorate?
If there is no satisfactory explanation for the death of the chief inspector, there will definitely be a bloodbath!
"It was you! It was you who killed the First Lord! So I arrested you and took you to task!"
Xia Shang chuckled lightly: "Ha! If you hand me over to me, a useless scholar, do you think the people above are all fools?"
"Then...then where did you get this thing?"
"I only said that the people above me didn't believe it, but I didn't say that I couldn't kill him."
When Chai Guan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then his hair stood on end, and he jumped up from the ground in fright: "Are you really the murderer?"
Xia Shang shrugged, unable to comment.
Chai Guan felt that the young man in front of him was as cold as ice, and a yin energy rushed towards him. He suddenly gasped and could not speak.
The token of the First Lord appears in the hands of this young man. Who else could it be but the murderer?
What kind of devilish tricks does the First Lord have? To die at the hands of this elegant and flowery young man is because he has the ability to scare even the devils! Killing yourself is not a matter of one breath?
Xia Shang found it strange that the head of a county could be so frightened. He looked at his own attire and saw that it was not very strange, so he said:
"What's the use of shouting now? Why don't you think about how to save your wealth and life!"
Save your life?
Who doesn’t want to save his life?
It’s better to keep it alive!
The head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate died in Yulin County. Even if he had ten heads, he wouldn't be able to chop him off! Even if the emperor didn't blame him, the hawks and dogs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate wouldn't be able to spare him!
"I miss my firewood pipe. I passed the exam in the double tenth grade. I entered the palace in the thirty-nine.
I want to benefit one party, but I want to live a peaceful life, but in the end it is a disaster from heaven, and I can't protect my wife and children. This is God's will, what can I do? What can I do!"
"Don't howl!" Xia Shang scolded, took two steps forward, knelt down, and whispered, "I have a way to keep you safe!"
When Chai Guan heard this, he exclaimed: "Is there any way to save my life?"
Xia Shang nodded: "It depends on whether you listen or not!"
"Listen! Speak quickly!" Chai Guanru grabbed the life-saving straw and pulled Xia Shang's sleeve tightly, his old eyes almost bulging out.
"Before that, I have a few questions to ask you, and you must tell them truthfully."
"you say……"
"Is it because of the order of the Yangzhou magistrate to arrest me today?"
Chai Guan was stunned and hesitated.
Xia Shang said angrily: "If you don't say it, then you will be asking for trouble! Even if you don't say it, I know it! The prefect wants you to get rid of me in the name of hiding it, to protect him from the crime of embezzling the Xia family's property!"
"
"I, I, I... I don't know. The magistrate only said that he would convict the young master of the Xia family and find a secluded place to get rid of him. I don't know the details."
"Well, if you want to live, do as I say. In the future, tell the magistrate that Xia Shang is dead, so that he can rest assured. I will teach you how to gain his trust in the future, and then collect his crimes bit by bit, and then
On the day you move to him, I will promise you great benefits."
Chai Guan was frightened when he heard this. This young man had killed the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and wanted to kill the prefect of Yangzhou?
"Although I have no merit or virtue, I am as clear as a mirror. You force me like this...how can I join in the evil with you?"
"Who is the filth? You know it all! The magistrate knew who died but didn't tell you, just to make you a scapegoat! If you don't fight with others, others will harm you everywhere. You deserve to be named on the gold list, but you behave like this
The end result. But you don’t think about your parents’ wishes, your desire to learn, and your past ambitions?
I saw that you are not a bad boy, so I told you a lot. Look at what you look like now. You are not like a human being, and your official is not like an official. Look at the gang of servants under you, all of them are worse than others.
There are so many beggars out there, so shame on them! Are you worthy of me? You were born as a child and did not do any serious work when you were twelve or thirteen years old, playing around all day long. Have you never thought about passing on his legacy so that you can get the top prize in the coming year?
dream?
Today I am kindly telling you that I intend to support you. The opportunity is right in front of you. Whether you want to give it a try in your old age or die in a sleep, it is your choice."
The old chaiguan's face turned red and he was speechless. He only sighed secretly: "I don't know if I can survive the current disaster, and where will the future be? It's a pity that my wife and children have suffered with me for many years. I only hate that I come from a poor family.
, there is no one to rely on in the court, and there is only one ambition, which has been suppressed for twenty years! Is it not too late to fight now? "
Xia Shang pointed to the place outside the window where the red clouds on the mountains were fading: "Is it too late now? Even if the sun sets over the west mountains, tomorrow will still rise in the east. If a man wants to do his career, what does it matter about his age?" (To be continued)
