The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

Candles were flickering, palace lanterns were circulating, and when all the lights in the Fugui Building were lit, Wang Chao, Ma Han, Zhang Long and others standing in the hall on the first floor were all in a state of semi-dementia. Such a place of caves and Buddhas.Visit download txt novel www

Standing at the bottom of the hall, Su Jin cupped his hands in the shape of a trumpet and shouted upstairs: "Miss Bai Mudan, you are up there. Su Jin has not broken his promise, and has come to rescue you from this prison."

A moment later, the brocade curtain in the innermost room on the second floor opened slightly, revealing half of a pretty face like a frightened bunny, and quickly shrank back.

Su Jin was wondering, when suddenly the curtain was raised high, and a group of women staggered and swarmed out of it, one by one like a bird out of a cage, with tears and smiles on their faces, rushing out.

Before Su Jin opened his mouth, a gust of fragrant wind came, and Bai Mudan ran down the stairs and threw herself into Su Jin's arms, her arms tightly wrapped around Su Jin's neck, crying: "Your Excellency is indeed a trustworthy person. It can be regarded as really finding the right person.”

Dynasty Mahan Zhang Long opened his mouth wide and looked at the women running down the stairs wearing flowers and butterflies in front of him. He was so big, and he had seen many beauties, but he saw so many beautiful little ladies all at once, and all of them were well dressed. Thin, with a charming demeanor, why don't you surprise the three big foodies; although Yan Dong's family and Rou Niang Huan Niang and others are often seen, these women are not worth mentioning when it comes to looks, but they are the son of the master, as servants They didn't dare to look directly at them for a while, but the women in front of them could feast on their beauty unscrupulously. In comparison, they felt that these women were even more amazing, because they had an incomparable aura on their bodies. The breath, it is a feminine itchy breath with a seductive provocation.

Su Jin wanted to push Bai Mudan away, but Bai Mudan clung to him tightly like an octopus, buried her head in his neck and wept, tears made half of Su Jin's neck wet.

Su Jin is helpless, he can also understand Bai Mudan's feelings, just like Mi Hua, in the midst of misery and torment, suddenly the joy of seeing the sun again, it can't be expressed with a smile alone, you have to cry, cry so much, you have to .

Bai Mudan finally stopped her grief, stepped back slowly, looked at the dozen or so tearful women behind her, and said softly: "Sisters, this is Master Su Jinsu that my family told you about, and my family entrusted him Come to rescue us, Master Su really did it, I thought he was just coaxing people."

All the girls hurriedly bowed down, and Yingying said in unison, "Thank you, sir, for saving me from the sea of ​​suffering. There is nothing I can do to repay you, but I pray that you will be safe and happy, and have a long life."

Su Jin was dazzled by the prostrating flowers in front of him, and said at a loss: "Hurry up... Hurry up and pass on the clothes. I'll take you out of here. The whole street will be cleaned up at dawn. Go there It’s time to go away.”

All the girls naturally understand that if they seduce an official into the water, they are considered accomplices. Although they are forced to do so, the government will not talk about favors with you when they are held accountable. This Mr. Su wants to get rid of the bottom line and bring them all before the interrogation begins. Go hide.

Su Jin also had a headache. Originally, he wanted to save Bai Mudan, but how to deal with so many women at once was a difficult problem. When the women went back to their rooms to change their clothes, Su Jin coughed and turned around and asked: "That... where should they be placed?"

Dynasty Ma Han Zhang Long looked at Su Jin as if he was looking at a broken shoe. No wonder the son-in-law stayed in the Fugui Building for a long time that day. When he came out, his hair was still wet and his body smelled of fragrance. There are so many beautiful women here, among other things, the one named Bai Mudan must have something to do with the son-in-law. When he comes up, he is hugged like a gourd silk wrapped in ivy. It's hard to understand that a peerless beauty like Yan Dong's family is still stealing food outside.

"Tell me, I want to ask you something." Su Jin was so ashamed that he was stared at by the three of them.

"Send it to Yuelai Inn, that's the only place where people can hide in the city." Ma Hanwen said in a low voice.

"Bah! What a bad idea, send all the good friends of the master to the Yuelai Inn? Do you want Dong Yan's family and Rou Niang to hang themselves and wipe their necks?" Zhang Long scolded.

Su Jin hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Don't talk nonsense, it's not a good friend, it's just a poor woman imprisoned by Feng Huhu..."

"Isn't it so familiar? You can't hold it with iron pliers..." Wang Chao muttered.

"Yeah, it's not a big deal, don't worry, my three brothers won't talk nonsense." Zhang Long said.

Su Jin was about to go berserk, and opened his mouth to defend, Wang Chao smacked his lips and said, "Forget it, let's just count it as a relationship, anyway, it has nothing to do with our brothers, and I don't need to explain to us, I should spend some time thinking about how to tell Yan The boss and the others explained, wow... so many, tsk tsk..."

Su Jin closed her mouth consciously, and had nothing to say to these three-headed bastards, and there would be no result if her lips were worn out.

"Just send it to Yuelai Inn, Zhang Long, you are responsible for sending it." Su Jin gritted his teeth.

Zhang Long hurriedly waved his hands and said, "That's not going to work. If I want to send you to someone else, I can't bear to be interrogated."

Su Jin looked at Wang Chao Ma Han, Wang Chao hurriedly turned his head to look at the rotating palace lantern, Ma Han hurriedly lowered his head and began to study the cashmere carpet, as if avoiding it.

"Okay, hello, you guys! I sent it by myself. I have no loyalty. I didn't expect Su Jin to be surrounded by people with no loyalty!" Su Jin beat his chest and stamped his feet.

"My lord, stop making trouble. Why do you feel uncomfortable? What's the point of a man messing with women? You insist on sending yourself to the Yuelai Inn to find trouble for yourself. Tell me, just book an inn and settle them down first. The little ladies compete with each other for their beauty, and if others can't grab it, you can have fun secretly." Wang Chao said.

"Alright, Zuo Jin found an inn for them to settle in first. Once the incident is over, I will send them away, that's all. Ma Han found an inn on North Street, and said it was expropriated by the government, and all the guests inside were driven away. Zhang Long is in charge of bringing them to the inn to settle down, and then he leads people to guard there, if officers and soldiers search the inn, they will say that I ordered them, and they are not allowed to enter the inn to search for them."

Just as Ma Han and Zhang Long wanted to speak, Su Jin stared and said, "Don't disobey orders, or you won't be polite."

Su Jin kicked his feet and left, Wang Chao winked and said enviously: "You two brothers, this is lucky, maybe some young lady will take a fancy to it and keep it for a night." After saying that, he laughed and followed He left behind Su Jin's ass.

Ma Han and Zhang Long peeked at each other, Zhang Long jumped and pointed at Wang Chao's back and cursed: "Wang Haozi, you are proud of yourself, you have no virtue in your mouth, and your feet are full of garlic. Be careful that you will fall like a dog and eat shit when you go out."

Chao Chao swaggered out of the Fugui Building, thinking: This is also considered a threat.

Suddenly, I felt something different under my feet. The threshold of the Fugui Building was too high, and I didn’t pay attention when I walked away. I was stumbled outside the door with an "oops" by the threshold, and I really fell down and gnawed on the mud; Rolling his eyes, he got up and followed Su Jin in a hurry.

……

Wind lanterns were hung high in Yangzhou government office square, and dozens of bonfires were lit, illuminating the square as if it were daytime; the prisoners who were originally planned to be sent to the prison had to temporarily settle in the square because of the overcrowding of the state capital prison.

Originally, the prison in the state capital could only accommodate more than a hundred people. After the bandits captured by Bagong Mountain were taken to Yangzhou City, except for the young men who were guarded in the barracks, dozens of small leaders were imprisoned in the prison waiting for the court to send people. The sentence was pronounced, and Panjiang arrested more than a dozen officials tonight and put them all in the prison. There is no room left in the prison.

In order to avoid extra problems, some sneaky prisoners in the big prison got lucky. Under Su Jin's suggestion, Song Xiang also learned to be flexible and told them all to go home and serve their sentences. Su Jin called it "serving sentences outside the prison." ', during this period, if the offense is repeated, the penalty will be doubled.

These people almost didn't want to die happily, so that more than a dozen cells were vacated in the prison, and all the leaders of the Yangzhou case were placed in them.

Su Jin and Song Xiang went through the cell carefully, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so they both heaved a sigh of relief.

Pan Jiang followed them and reported: "My lords, the number of people has been counted. The officials arrested 18 people, 16 people, 280 person was seriously injured, and [-] people are at large; [-] people were captured in the Sanli Hutong of Beikou. The bandit leader Feng Jingyao and his [-] people None of the direct disciples of the Famous Dragon and Tiger Clan escaped, except for the second disciple, third disciple and fifth disciple who died."

Su Jin smiled and said: "Commander Pan has worked hard, the two fugitive officials must be in the city, and there is another person who must be arrested when searching the city tomorrow, and that is Long Zhen, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard Horse Army."

Song Xiang asked in surprise, "Dragon really ran away?"

Su Jin nodded and said: "At the beginning of the operation last night, I went to get him, but he has already escaped, but we can find clues about this matter from Mr. Shen, the criminal secretary. I'm not busy right now. I just need to seal the city gate. Don't be afraid." He escaped."

After finishing speaking, he asked Pan Jiangdao: "Is there any statistics on the death toll?"

Pan Jiang said: "The statistics are complete. Thirty-one officers and soldiers were killed in battle, including nine from the imperial army and horse soldiers, 31 and seven from Longhumen, and three from ordinary people. They were all involved by mistake."

Su Jin nodded and said: "Let's do this first, it's very late at night, and I will be doing pension claims and burial in the morning. At present, I need to focus on a few things first. I discussed it with the prefect of Song, and you will be fully responsible."

Pan Jiang clasped his fists and said, "I will die for a humble job."

Su Jin smiled and said: "What are you talking about? A big fortune is already on top of you. The first thing to do is this government prison. Here are all serious and important criminals. They must be strictly guarded, and all criminals must be tied up. We must be firm, there must be no escape or suicide, of course, their lives are theirs, and we can’t control them if they don’t want to hit the wall and commit suicide.”

Song Xiang rolled his eyes and said to himself: You want them all to die. If it wasn't for the full attention of everyone, you might stab each of them with a knife.

However, Song Xiang himself had the same idea. If these people were alive, a big secret would be revealed. Su Jin discusses and discusses.

"Secondly, Feng Huhu's many shops in the four cities must be sealed up immediately. There was no manpower just now. Now that manpower is available, we must not let any of them go. There are also remnants of the Dragon and Tiger Gate in these shops, so don't let them run away. gone."

"Understandable."

"Thirdly, it is strictly forbidden for officers and soldiers to break into Feng Laohu's shop and loot it. All the finances of the Feng family will be confiscated and confiscated. I will lead someone to handle this matter tomorrow. You just need to restrain your subordinates."

Pan Jiang thought in his heart: "Of course you are the one to do this fat job, but I am not greedy for money. This envoy has lost a lot for Yangzhou, so it is understandable to take some secretly."
