Chapter 340

When we arrived outside the county seat, the sun was just right.

A round of red sun shone on her body, making her feel warm.

They were all wearing thick clothes. Although most people in the team were not afraid of the cold, they all changed into cotton clothes in order not to be too unusual.

Even those Taoist soldiers, under his order, wore a few more clothes under the fish scale armor.

Speaking of which, these Dao soldiers are all human races.

It is different from the Taoist soldiers in other places, or the aquarium, or ghosts.

This further supports the conjecture that Jiangbo Guanting was born in the human race.

The gate of the county seat was already wide open, and there were a few yamen servants standing listlessly on guard at the gate.

Seeing this team of carriages and horses driving over, they just dealt with it, and they didn't dare to really investigate strictly.

Small people also have their own way of survival. Seeing so many armored people and so many horses, they will naturally weigh the importance.

The knight who opened the way ahead got off his horse first, and after asking passers-by, he led the team along slowly.

You can ride a horse in the city, but you can't gallop the horse to avoid hurting passers-by.

···········
County government.

It doesn't look that big here, it only covers an area of ​​more than ten acres, and counting the guest houses on the side, it actually looks a bit shabby.

Beichen County is an upper county. According to the specifications, the county government can occupy up to [-] acres of land.

It looked deserted here, and the door was locked.

After asking the passers-by, I found out that today is Xiumu, and none of the officials in the county government is here.

"Is this a slap in the face for the new county magistrate?"

Ding Zhenyuan laughed a little.

Things like Xiu Mu may not be such a coincidence, right?

Who believes?

"Since it's locked, there's no need for a key, not even the door!"

Ding Zhenyuan stood with his hands behind his back, his smile turned cold.

At that moment, a soldier obeyed the order, drew out his saber, and stepped forward to slash.

Dang-

The door lock broke in two and hit the steps with a metallic sound.

Four or five pathfinding soldiers entered first, quickly looking for possible traps and enemies.

After a while, after a few rounds of troubleshooting, they quit and reported back.

"My lord, there is no danger inside."

"go!"

At this time, Ding Zhenyuan waved his hand, and the motorcade slowly drove behind the county office.

Of course, the main hall is not a place for people to live. It is an area for handling government affairs and hearing civil lawsuits.

In fact, there are many vacant rooms in the county government office, which are reserved for the past officials to stay overnight. Of course, the county officials can also live in them.

It's just that these more than 100 people live together, and it suddenly seems a bit crowded.

So, the empty rooms that were originally locked were cleaned up again.

The building of this county government office is a bit outdated, but fortunately, there are no obvious omissions, which shows that the county magistrates in the past did not make too much trouble.

We have been busy from morning to afternoon, and at noon we all have a meal with dry food.

In the evening, someone was late.

What came was a young man who appeared to be 27 or [-] years old. He was wearing casual clothes and smelled of alcohol. He staggered a little while walking, and he was holding a small flagon in his left hand.

Then he was stopped by soldiers at the door.

"My official, Bai Dian, the magistrate of Beichen County, who dares to stop me?"

He shouted loudly, his face flushed, and he looked as if he had drunk a lot.

Hearing the sound, Ding Zhenyuan came out and looked at him coldly.

He entered the city in the morning and entered the county government with great fanfare. How could the local snakes in the county turn a blind eye to such a large team?
When the boss arrives, as an official, don't say that you may not really take a bath, even if you really have a long vacation today, do you really pretend that you didn't see it?

It's nothing more than deliberately hanging it out to kill and prestige!

This is the case with local officials. The county magistrate has never been of the same mind with the county magistrate and the master.

Ding Zhenyuan's method is also a common method.

Presumably, he also saw himself with these soldiers, and felt that he had an extraordinary background, so he didn't dare to hang out for too long, fearing that if he was young and energetic, he would kill people in a fit of anger, and it would not end well.

Otherwise, according to the usual practice, I'm afraid they will really pretend not to see it, and they won't come until tomorrow!

"It seems that some people bullied me when I was young, and they looked down on me!"

Ding Zhenyuan smiled instead of anger.

The guy outside who claimed to be the magistrate of the county should not be a pawn of temptation.

Because when the county magistrate is away, the county magistrate will fill in and act as the county magistrate, so in fact...

"Actually, this guy could have logically succeeded the county magistrate, but I accidentally threw money at him to replace him. Is he out of resentment and purposely drunk?" Just as he was thinking about it, there was a commotion over there.

The soldiers guarding the gate did not allow it, so they would not hurt anyone easily, but just expelled them.

As a result, Bai Dian became more rampant, talking loudly, relying on the scruples of the soldiers, but showing his madness, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.

Ding Zhenyuan smiled coldly.

"Want to save my face and take revenge on me?"

"Exactly, I also lack the chicken to scare the chicken to scare the monkey!"

Ding Zhenyuan ordered the left and right, and cold water was brought from the back office.

At this early winter, the well water was still warm.

"Splash it with water! Until he sobers up!"

··········
"I'm Bai Dian, but I'm an official. I'm the Prime Minister of Bapin County. I have a bright future. How dare you stop me?"

"Let go of your dirty hands, common people!"

"Let go, Lizi! You are attacking the imperial court official, and I want to punish you!"

The Bai Dian was set up by two soldiers on one side, still struggling endlessly.

Afterwards, some people carried a bucket of well water and poured it on their heads.

Covering his head and face, he was all drenched.

Now, he was speechless.

"Cough cough cough cough cough..."

Choked.

"Let him go."

Ding Zhenyuan's voice came.

The two soldiers let go, and the Baidian fell to the ground, coughing frantically.

Water was dripping from his face and head.

The cotton clothes all over his body became heavy and stuck to his body after absorbing moisture.

As soon as the cold wind blew, he was so cold that he shivered.

Now, no matter how drunk you are, you should be a little more sober.

After a while, he raised his head and looked at the young man standing in front of him.

There was still some reluctance on his face, but he still struggled to stand up.

Naturally, he had read the official documents, knew the appearance of the new county magistrate, and even had a portrait.

This is a specially added procedure to prevent incidents of impersonating officials.

Since there was a big case of bandits robbing and killing officials impersonating officials, Daliao has formulated a variety of anti-counterfeiting measures.

This early distribution of portraits is one of them.

Therefore, he can't say that he doesn't know him.

However, when he thought that it was the son of the aristocratic family in front of him, relying on his good background, he forcibly deprived him of the position that should belong to him, a flame of anger burned in Bai Dian's chest.

He opened his mouth, but didn't say a word.

He stood stubbornly in the cold wind, swinging his head, but refused to bow his head first.
