The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

Wang Chao worriedly said to the others: "It seems that he was really stained with something dirty. You can see that the young master's lips are black and purple, and his expression is agitated, which is very different from usual; what's more, he was stained with something dirty People who are naked will never admit it; to sum up all the above, I’m afraid it’s not good.)

While looking at Su Jin's face, Ma Han nodded and said, "As expected, what should we do?"

"I've been knocked out, there's nothing else I can do." Wang Chao said sadly.

Su Jin was taken aback. These guys can really talk nonsense. They really thought that they were possessed. Seeing a few guys eagerly moving up, Su Jin quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't...don't move."

"No matter where you are from, you are willing to go all out for your son. Although you are afraid of ghosts, you can't ignore my son's whereabouts. Everyone is happy to leave my son's body. In the upper body, your soul will fly away, and your practice will be ruined instead." Wang Chao leaned forward and muttered in his mouth.

Su Jinyu cried without tears, and scolded: "Few stupid things, I was just happy when I was possessed by a ghost."

"Don't fool us, your lips are black and purple, and you still don't admit it." Ma Han said.

"Idiot, which one of you don't have dark lips?" Su Jin cursed while stepping back.

When everyone looked at each other, they were startled. They all jumped aside and gestured to each other with knives: "It turns out that you are also possessed."

"You have just been possessed, stay away from me."

"Both of you are possessed...your lips are black."

Su Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shouted: "Stop making trouble, tossing around in the cold wind for half the night, anyone's lips will be black and purple from the cold, and I will be pissed to death by you."

Heh ha, the four generals were suspicious, Su Jin stepped forward and used the tip of the knife to poke away the wild dog's fur and said, "Look, this is not a ghost, it's clearly a sharp wound."

Everyone looked forward and saw that a wound on the dog's neck was bubbling blood, and the wound was turned outwards. It was a wound formed by a dagger or a short knife. When they were puzzled, Su Jin stretched out his knife and patted the tombstone and shouted: "You can hold your breath, it's a shame you found such a good place to hide, come out quickly."

Zhao Hu said: "Master, who are you talking to?"

Su Jin scolded: "This guy is actually hiding in this tomb, disturbing the peace of the people who entered the soil. He is really wicked. Just now, the wild dog was chased by us in a panic. It sneaked into the grass and burrowed into the hole behind the tombstone. This guy is here A knife inside killed a wild dog, now I understand."

Everyone was dumbfounded. If this was the case, Long Zhen was really ruthless, and he didn't shy away from sleeping with the dead. But this is indeed a good way, and he would never think that he would get into the grave to take shelter.

There was no sound in the tomb. It seemed that the people in the tomb were going to carry it to the end. Su Jin scolded: "It's this time, you are still hiding, the young master told you to hide; Chao Mahan, cut off the dead branches and piled them on the ground. Dongkou, fume this to death."

The fire was lit, and Long Zhen couldn't stay in it anymore. Although the tomb was a little open, the smell inside was filthy. Long Zhen usually sat outside in a daze, and was afraid of being outside when he was sleeping. Only when he died of freezing did he drag a few piles of hay into it to make a nest; fortunately, the coffin inside was a sarcophagus and hadn't decayed, otherwise it would be enough for him.

At this moment, the thick smoke was fanned in, and Long Zhen covered his mouth and nose with his clothes and couldn't stand it any longer. He coughed and shouted: "Forgive Special Envoy Su, I'm coming out."

Su Jin sneered and said, "Don't cry if you don't see the coffin, throw out the knife first."

Long Zhen hurriedly pushed the dagger out of the hole, Wang Chao pulled the dagger out with a flick of the knife, and then removed the fire at the hole, and then, Long Zhen crawled out from the hole unkempt, still wearing clothes. A woman's flowered padded jacket, and a pair of stolen old cotton trousers with bloated lower body, she looks neither human nor ghost.

Su Jin stared at him for a long time, then smiled and said, "Is this Commander Long? This shape is very unique."

Long Zhen was so ashamed that he wanted to die, and said in a low voice: "It's a humble job, and it's just to make you spare my life."

Su Jin said: "Although you ran away and lost your food, you didn't run away without saying hello? Even if you escape, you have to find a good place to sleep on this barren mountain with the bones of a dead person. Are you crazy? ? Do you know how hard it was for the envoy to find you?"

Long Zhen knelt down and kowtowed: "Damn the humble job, the humble job was confused for a while."

Su Jin said: "Confused for a moment? Where are you planning to escape to? Why do you want to escape?"

Long Zhen faltered and said: "Humble job... Humble job didn't plan to escape anywhere, just planned to hide for a while, and then...then..."

"Then go to the stables and sue the envoy for using the rations?" Su Jin's voice was three points colder than Night Breeze's.

"How dare you, I don't know about the special envoy, and all one of them was imprisoned in Xiaoshiqiao's compound by that Shen Xun..."

"Is that called imprisonment? I think you are enjoying the blessings, but you are still dishonest. You know that I have the idea of ​​​​running away after using the military rations. You are trying to put me to death; do you know that the court has come?"

"Humble job doesn't know."

Su Jin said: "There is an imperial envoy here, Ouyang Xiu, Yushi Zhongcheng, do you know him?"

Long Zhenxin was overjoyed, Ouyang Xiu, Yushi Zhongcheng? The biting mad dog of Yushitai was afraid that he was here to trouble Su Jin this time, so he tried his best to suppress the joy in his heart, and said in a mournful voice: "I don't know him in my humble position, I am guilty of my humble position. It's better to envoy your lord to transfer the humble position to Mr. Zhong Cheng for trial and sentence, and the humble position will definitely bow his head and plead guilty."

Su Jin laughed and said: "You have a good idea. If you are in the hands of Yushi Zhongcheng, you can survive. By the way, you can also report the matter of this envoy to Mr. Yushi?"

"How dare you be humble, you don't know anything, you swear to the sky, you swear to the gods." Long Zhen hurriedly kowtowed to confess.

"God? You dare to dig into the tomb of the dead, even dare to snatch the territory of the dead, I will believe your lies? This envoy is very embarrassed, Mr. Zhongcheng really wants you from me, this envoy is now in a dilemma, If you can't find you, you go to the stables to play the report, and my head will be cut off to be used as a chicken pot, but it won't be easy if I find you, I will give you to Ouyang Xiu, the censor Zhongcheng, I'm afraid you will still It's just a bite to bite back."

Su Jin is not hypocritical, this Long Zhen has nothing to do with the Yangzhou case, even if the Yangzhou officials can be executed on the spot, Long Zhen is not one of them; The Privy Council came forward to deal with him according to the military law. Even if he was handed over to Ouyang Xiu, Ouyang Xiu would have no way to punish him, so Su Jin was really in a dilemma.

"It will never be like this. My lord, I will have the courage to dare to offend you any more. As long as I forgive you, I will be your encouragement in the future. There is no other way."

Su Jin narrowed his eyes and pinched his chin, which was clean and innocent. He hesitated, and suddenly asked: "How can I trust you? So, tell me why you deliberately delayed the delivery of grain, and deliberately let the grain be intercepted by bandits? I have no grievances with you, there must be someone who ordered you to do this, who is that person?"

Long Zhen rolled his eyes and said: "Master Special Envoy misunderstood, I didn't deliberately delay the delivery of food, when I arrived in Luzhou, I planned to ship it right away, but I couldn't get all the vehicles in the Luzhou mansion for many days , there is no way for a humble job; later the vehicles were assembled, but it was snowing heavily, of course it was even slower; as for the bandit robbing food, the humble job is really cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death, and dare not To fight, so..."

Su Jin said: "You are just like this. You treat everyone in the world as fools. This is supposed to give you a chance, but you don't cherish it."

Long Zhen hurriedly said: "every sentence is true, let me make it clear to you."

Su Jin turned around and walked slowly on the grass, thinking about how to deal with Long Zhen. This person has not told the truth until now, and he has fantasies in his heart. It is conceivable that once this person is out of his control, he will have nothing to do with him. Without hesitation, he took a bite back and exposed all his affairs.

While thinking, Su Jin suddenly heard a scream from behind, Su Jin looked back in horror, and saw Ma Han stepping on Long Zhen's body and pulling out a knife, the knife cut on Long Zhen's neck, almost cutting off half of Long Zhen's head , Long Zhen's eyes were wide open, his mouth was loud, and he pointed at Su Jin, not knowing what to say.

Ma Han's blade was stuck in the spine, pinched tightly, but he couldn't pull it out; annoyed, he flew up and kicked Long Zhen's head, kicking off half of the severed head forcefully, The rolling number rolled down at Su Jin's feet.

Su Jin jumped back in shock, and said in shock, "Why did you kill him?"

Ma Han said: "This kid knows what's wrong with me, it's a disaster to keep him, if I can't do it, the villain will take care of this trouble for me."

Su Jin stomped and said, "Who wants you to be smart? I still need to get the statement from him and find out who is behind the scenes. You...you are too reckless."

Ma Han scratched his head and said: "You didn't say it earlier, we are just worried that this kid will ruin things for you..."

Su Jin sighed: "I know you are doing it for me, but there is no need to kill him at all. Find a secret place and imprison him. It will not be too late to kill him after asking for a confession to bring down his backer. Why are you so anxious?"

Ma Han drooped his head and said, "This... the little one didn't expect it."

Su Jin said sternly: "Forget it this time, let's make up our own mind next time, the Lord will take your skin off."

Wang Chao and others stepped forward to comfort him and said: "Master, the matter has come to an end, we should deal with the aftermath quickly, and don't blame the old horse, he is also kind."

Su Jin snorted and said: "What else can we do to deal with the aftermath? Just put his body in the tomb, and the hole must be tightly blocked. Don't teach the wild dogs to drag it out. If someone discovers it, report it to the police." That's troublesome."

Everyone hurriedly stuffed Long Zhen's corpse into the hole, stabbed it to the deepest point with a thick branch, and just about to fill the hole with soil, Su Jin said: "Don't be too busy, gnaw those dog corpses and that dog until they don't look like it." The dead body was also stuffed in and buried together; the blood on the ground was covered with some soil, and the mouth should be killed like a mouth."

Ma Han laughed aloud, it turned out that the master was so thoughtful, it seemed that he had already planned to kill him, and he just reprimanded himself just for putting on a show.

After they were done, they turned off the torches and went back to the hut quietly. The old couple inside were still snoring loudly. Su Jin didn't intend to disturb them, so he tiptoedly led people down the slope and rode a horse back to the inn.

Poor Long Zhen, he searched and searched to find an excellent hiding place, but was ruined by a few wild dogs and his whereabouts were discovered. At that time, he had no choice. Not barking and biting, he stabbed the dog to death with a dagger in desperation. They really hoped that the dog would die silently, and they would not be able to find themselves, but it still fell short.

And the hiding place he searched painstakingly was a tomb. It cannot but be said that he had some strange premonition about his own destiny, and seeking benevolence and devotion, he finally got his wish and lay on the dead man's bone until the end of time.
