Song Yi

Chapter 517 Count to three, you will be thrown out
Du Wenhao said: "If the bad things you have done before have not touched my bottom line, I can turn a blind eye and close one eye. I just need to stop in the future, be an official honestly, be a clean person, and benefit the people. You can let the past go. But if you don’t listen to the greeting, don’t blame me for being ruthless, Hezhi County is your example.”

A group of officials kowtowed again: "The ministers must restrain themselves and serve the public, and benefit the people of Liming. They dare not make mistakes, let alone do things that violate the king's law."

Ruan Zuhui, the magistrate of Hangzhou, knelt and climbed two steps trembling, kowtowed and said: "The minister is guilty, how do you know that the county is corrupt, bent the law, practiced favoritism, disregarded human life, and harmed the people, and the minister did not find out. It is really dereliction of duty. Please come down."

Du Wenhao waved his hand and said: "These days I heard that the people in Hangzhou have a good reputation for you. You have done a lot of things that benefit the people, which is worthy of praise. But it is also a crime to employ people without supervision. You don't have a deep understanding, so I can record this matter first, and if I find that you have other crimes that violate my bottom line, or even new crimes appear, then I will settle the old and old accounts together."

Ruan Zuhui was both happy and frightened, and hastily kowtowed and said: "I must obey the orders of the prince, be an official honestly, be a clean person, benefit the people of Li, and dare not do anything against the king's law."

"That's good! By the way, the magistrate of Qiantang County, Hangzhou, should be filled by Yulong Xuanwu of Qiantang County. The post of county captain should be determined by Long Xuanwu himself. You don't have to report to me. Whoever he likes to choose is up to him. Just decide."

Ruan Zuhui quickly agreed.

Du Wenhao waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go back after seeing this. I'll go to the front too. Remember, I'm just a doctor when I come out of this door. identity, be careful."

A group of officials hurriedly said they didn't dare, and bowed their hands in salute.

Du Wenhao returned to the inner hall and changed back to his clothes, and returned to the front hall under the escort of several guards.

When he appeared in the arena, the hanging stone of Su Changkong's family finally fell to the ground. In fact, no one came to harass them just now, but they always felt uneasy. After all, it was Du Wenhao who brought them in without the invitation.

After Du Wenhao sat down now, Wu Zhen said very dissatisfied: "What's the matter with you, we've been scared to death for so long."

Du Wenhao smiled and said: "It's convenient for me to go, and by the way, I met with my guard friend to express my thanks. He greeted us well and let us in, so we can't just say no thanks."

Su Changsheng nodded repeatedly, and said, "That's true."

Speaking of this, I saw a few people on the stage, but they were Eunuch Ning, the comforter, and Hangzhou Zhizhou. The three of them arrived on the stage, and the surroundings became quiet.

The appeasement envoy looked at the hundreds of guests attending the ceremony below and said, "Please read the imperial decree, Eunuch Ning."

Eunuch Ning read out the imperial decree, which was for the officials and people of Liangzhe Road. Naturally, it was a compliment to the local area, and then he announced that he would be the King of Hangzhou to show his respect for Liangzhe Road, especially Hangzhou. , benefit the common people, and stabilize the border security.

Everyone's blood boiled.

In the crowd, Su Changsheng whispered: "Why didn't you say the last name of King Hang?"

Wu Zhen said in a low voice: "How can ordinary people like you and me know the surnames of the royal relatives?"

"That's true."

After reading the imperial decree, the appeasement envoy went on to say: "Due to some reasons, King Hang could not come to see you. King Hang thanked everyone on his behalf and thanked everyone for participating in this canonization ceremony. The prince will work together with everyone Take good care of our Hangzhou and Liangzhe Road, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Well, the ceremony is over, please come to the side to participate in the celebration banquet."

There were all famous figures in Hangzhou and Liangzhe Road in the field. I didn't expect that they didn't even have the right to see King Hang, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay.They all felt that the king of Hang was unpredictable, and that the dragon could see the beginning but not the end.

Everyone filed out to eat in the adjacent lobby.

On the contrary, Su Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, this can be regarded as having gone through the canonization ceremony, even though King Hang could not see it.But so many high-ranking officials and dignitaries couldn't see it, so it would be great for him to be able to participate, so he was very satisfied.Just focus on this point, and you can blow it out when you go out.

Above the lobby, there are dozens of tables of banquets in the banquet hall, with numbers on them, and you can sit at the banquet according to their numbers.

There is also a high platform next to it, on which there are opera troupes singing, which is very lively, and they are all plays such as commanding and sealing generals.

There are dozens of tables of banquets, and each table is served by maids of honor.

Du Wenhao still led them to a banquet in the middle, and no one bothered them.

Today, a stage is set up, and the stage is the most respected, so the front row is the most prestigious position. The banquet in the middle is actually not very conspicuous, but it feels like the stars are holding the moon.

Su Changsheng was very anxious. The banquet hadn't started yet, and many people were looking for seats.

At this time, the person who came over to their table was Guan Shaoxian, the son of Guan Shangxiong, a householder in Hangzhou who joined the army.

Hufang joins the army from the eighth rank, and he is considered a not small official in the local area, so he is eligible to participate in this canonization ceremony and can bring one relative, so he chose to bring his son Guan Shaoxian.

Guan Shangxiong sat in the front row, Guan Shaoxian saw Su Wanrou, he had been coveting Su Wanrou for a long time, so he immediately left the seat and came over to greet her.

Guan Shaoxian looked at Du Wenhao, a little strange: "What qualifications do you have to come in?"

Du Wenhao smiled lightly: "Why can't I come in, this grand ceremony can't be held without me, don't you know?"

Guan Shaoxian froze for a moment, then laughed.

But seeing the people around him looking at him, he quickly covered his mouth to suppress his laughter, and said, "You can really blow, you can blow such cowhide."

Guan Shaoxian's eyes fell on Su Wanrou's face, and he said with a smile: "Wanrou, you go to our table, I'll let someone over there come and sit in your seat. We can see clearly from the front near the stage."

"No thanks, I'm fine here."

Guan Shaoxian took out another ingot of silver from his pocket, slapped it in front of Du Wenhao and said, "Hey, here's the money for you, you go outside the lobby and give me your seat."

Du Wenhao looked at him: "You want to sit in my seat? You are not qualified yet."

"No qualifications? I'm giving you face by sitting in your seat! Asking your wife to accompany me is also a blessing you have cultivated, understand? You fool, why don't you get out? Are you waiting for me to ask someone to throw you out?"

"It's not me who was thrown out, but you. If I count to three, you will be thrown out. Do you believe it?"

"I don't believe it yet. Let's see who dares to touch me?"

"one two Three!"

Du Wenhao counted very quickly and finished counting in one go.

Guan Shaoxian discovered that several wolf-like guards had appeared behind him, grabbed Guan Shaoxian's hair, twisted his hands, and dragged him out like a dead dog.

Su Changsheng's family was shocked. What's going on?

Su Wanrou asked Du Wenhao: "Did you let someone do it?"

"No, I'm sitting here without moving, how can I call someone?"

"Then why was he dragged away?"

"This is the King of Hang Ceremony. It's a place where rules are followed. How can he mess around? He messed around, so he was thrown out."

Su Changsheng and the others nodded, thinking that this explanation was reasonable.

Guan Shaoxian was dragged outside the banquet hall, and several guards beat and kicked him, causing Guan Shaoxian to collapse on the ground and howl.

After the beating, the guard pointed to him and said, "Sit according to the number, don't you understand the truth? Do you want us to teach you how to sit?"

Why don't you just change your location?As for a beating?

Guan Shaoxian had no place to cry if he wanted to, so he could only watch the guards who beat him turn and walk away, without daring to say a word.

Fortunately, this punch and kick only hit the body, not the face. Although the pain was so painful, he could still see people.

Enduring the pain and limping, Guan Shaoxian was about to enter the lobby when he suddenly saw a group of patrolling soldiers not far away. The leader was Dutou, surnamed Hong, who was in charge of public security inspections from the Hangzhou Army and Horse Division.

Guan Shaoxian likes to make friends, and he also knows this Hongdu head, and has had a drink together.

Seeing him at this moment, he made up his mind, quickly waved his hands to stop him and said, "Hello, Hong Dutou, I'm Guan Shaoxian."

Hong Dutou recognized him, cupped his hands and said, "Young Master Guan, what's the matter?"

Guan Shaoxian pointed to the inside of the big banquet tent, and said: "I suspect that there is someone who sneaked in. He is just a doctor, and he is also the son-in-law who came to the door. He is not qualified to participate in such a banquet. For the safety of King Hang, you It's best to check it out, if he doesn't have an invitation card, arrest him."

Hong Du took a deep breath when he heard it. If someone sneaks in, it will be a big trouble, and it will be a death penalty if it harms the prince's safety. He hurriedly said, "Who is it?"

Guan Shaoxian led him to the entrance of the banquet hall, pointed to Du Wenhao's table in the middle, and said, "Do you know Su Changsheng, the shopkeeper of Changshengtang?"

Changshengtang is still ranked among the medical clinics in Hangzhou, and Hong Dutou is in charge of Hangzhou's security inspections, so he knows quite a few people, and of course he also knows Su Changsheng, so he nodded.

Guan Shaoxian said: "The young man next to Su Changsheng is Su Changsheng's new son-in-law, a charlatan. I suspect he got in. Think about it, how can a son-in-law with the same status as a servant Maybe to participate in a celebration like King Hang, if he doesn't sneak in, you can beat me to death."

Hong Du first heard that this is indeed the truth, nodded again and again, and walked in quickly with a few soldiers.

Guan Shaoxian watched proudly at the door.

Lieutenant Hong led a few soldiers to Du Wenhao's desk.At this moment, several top officials, including the appeasement envoy, the transfer envoy, and the prefect of Hangzhou, quickly came to Du Wenhao's table with wine glasses in their hands, raised their glasses with a smile and said, "Let's toast one by one. "

He especially emphasized the toasts one by one, so that people would not doubt Du Wenhao's identity.

Ruan Zuhui, the magistrate, also smiled and said: "Yes, let's start from the middle and toast to the inside. This is called center blossom."

"well said."

The appeasement envoy raised his glass to Du Wenhao: "Mr. Du, all of you here, some people from the lower ranks are here to toast, please have a toast!"

Hong Du, who had already walked not far from the wine table, stopped for a moment. Of course he knew the comforter and others. Obviously an acquaintance.

Ruan Zuhui, the magistrate, also clinked glasses with Du Wenhao, and said, "Mr. Du has excellent medical skills, we have all heard about it!"

Du Wenhao smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for the compliment!"

Several other high-ranking officials also came to clink their glasses, first with Du Wenhao and then with others.

Hong Du's head almost passed out, his head was buzzing.

Hearing this, the pacifiers and other high-ranking officials are very familiar with Du Wenhao's son-in-law, and they appreciate his medical skills very much. If he went there earlier and beat Du Wenhao out, he would not only blow his black hat, but I'm afraid I will be beaten up and thrown into prison.

Thinking of this, I suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
