After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Mr. Zhou's expression turned serious and he said sternly to Xu Bo'an: "You bastard, why don't you get out of the way when you see Mr. Yan!"

Seeing that this guy was getting more and more arrogant, Xu Bo'an immediately replied displeasedly: "What does it have to do with you whether I avoid you or not?"

Mr. Zhou's eyes were cold, and he was uncharacteristically not angry because of Xu Bo'an's retort. Instead, he said with a proud smile of a successful conspiracy: "Dajing's regulations, anyone who meets an official must be neatly dressed, and those who are disheveled must be dressed neatly." You must get out of the way. You look so slovenly, shouldn’t you get out of the way? You are indeed an uneducated country bumpkin who doesn’t even know this!”

Only then did Xu Boan realize that there was such a rule in this place, and he also knew that he had been deceived by Mr. Zhou, who was digging a hole for him to jump out of.

No way, I have suffered the loss of not being familiar with the place I was born in.

However, before Xu Bo'an could respond, Yan Shouyi waved his hand disapprovingly and said magnanimously: "That's all, it's not a formal occasion. I'm just passing by. I feel it's inappropriate to disturb the people this time. Such small things are not that important.”

As soon as Yan Shouyi's words came out, they aroused praise from the crowd present. You and I praised Yan Shouyi's wisdom, prowess, kindness and kindness.

"Master Yan is so considerate of ordinary people like us. He is indeed a good official with both ability and political integrity!"

"Yes, such a good official, it's a pity that he has to go to another place to take up his post. I really can't bear to see Mr. Yan leave."

"You guys, don't be too selfish and foolish. If Lord Yan goes to work in Qingmu Banner, he will be promoted. You can't delay Lord Yan's future."

"Screw you, you are thinking too narrowly about anything that has no future. Mr. Yan is just doing things for more people and doing more things for the great scenery!"

Yan Shouyi listened to all these words of the people, and felt very comfortable in his heart.

For those who are serving as officials, hearing praise from the public is definitely one of the manifestations of high emotional value.

Unexpectedly, while Yan Shouyi was enjoying the compliments of the people here, he suddenly heard a discordant sound coming into his ears.

"Your Majesty's remarks may be slightly inappropriate." However, Mr. Zhou felt very unhappy when he saw that the trap he dug for Xu Bo'an did not work, so he pretended to be righteous and stern to continue his argument.

Yan Shouyi frowned slightly, but soon returned to his normal smile and said: "Oh? It's true that a hero comes from a young age. When I was as old as you, I was not so courageous. Tell me, I What’s wrong with that?”

Mr. Zhou thought this was a compliment to himself, so he immediately raised his head proudly and said loudly with a conceited expression on his face: "Master Yan said that this is a trivial matter and a matter of 'paying attention', but Xiaomin disagrees! Xiaomin thinks , this is not a trivial matter, nor is it what adults call 'fine-tasting'! This is not a trivial matter.

It is a major event that is clearly stipulated in the laws of Dajing. It is also a serious matter that the royal family of Dajing personally chops with swords, axes, chisels and stains with ink, and declares it to the world stroke by stroke on the stone pillars of the law! Please take back the order, Mr. Yan, press Rules of practice!"

Yan Shouyi was originally in a very good mood, but when he heard this inappropriate sound, he suddenly felt very dissatisfied. Originally, he thought that this kid was going to make a reversal and praise himself again, but he didn't expect that this kid actually came to cause trouble at the wrong time!

Who wouldn't be angry if this kind of thing happened?
After all, it’s like the feeling a person feels when he suddenly eats half a worm while he’s feasting on a big meal; it’s like the feeling of a person walking on a green lawn and suddenly sees a pile of dog poop!

Such unsightly things will definitely affect your mood!
Moreover, there is a saying that the Dajing Dynasty was originally an institutional dynasty with serious official-oriented thinking.

Yan Shouyi has been an official for many years, and he still has the authority and aura he deserves.

Although he is kind-hearted, he still feels that he is superior to others deep down.

Now that I heard that Young Master Zhou actually dared to refute me so shamelessly, and also used such high-sounding words to suppress me, I naturally felt very unhappy.

Yan Shouyi immediately looked at Mr. Zhou with stern eyes, and just snorted softly. Then a follower beside him asked Mr. Zhou first: "Who are you, Mr. Yan? How can you distort the remarks of our Lord Yan?" , malicious judgment?”

Mr. Zhou thought this was a test of himself. After all, Master Yan had praised himself just now. It seems that the upright image I created really suits Master Yan’s taste!
Mr. Zhou immediately cupped his hands and said like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers: "I am from the Zhou family! I happened to have learned the content of Dajing's regulations not long ago, and when I heard the adults mention it, I wanted to remind you."

Yan Shou took the words, slightly wary, and said: "Oh? Zhou family! Which Zhou family! Is it the Zhou family from Qingyun Road, or the branch of the Zhou family in Qingmu Mansion?"

Mr. Zhou blushed slightly when he heard this. In Xishan Market Town, people mention Zhou Yuan's wife's family, which is somewhat famous, but within the scope of Qingmu Mansion and even Qingyun Road, their family is really inconspicuous. Even in Shanyang County, there are many people who are better than his family.

Hearing Yan Shou mention the two big families, Mr. Zhou lowered his tone and said with some confidence: "Well, it's neither, it's our Zhou family in Shanyang County."

Yan Shou thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "Oh, the Zhou family in Shanyang County? I haven't heard that there are branches of the Zhou family here in Shanyang County."

Hearing this, Mr. Zhou blushed even more and explained again: "It's not that Zhou family, it's our family whose surname is Zhou. My uncle used to be the head of the prison in our Shanyang County government prison. Now he has retired and returned to his hometown in Xishan. People in this town call me Zhou Yuanwai."

Yan Shou listened one by one, and his frown suddenly relaxed, and the faint trace of worry on his face disappeared.

He originally thought that this young man had a great background, but after hearing this, he realized that he had scared him.

A shabby householder in a county is just hiding in the countryside and wreaking havoc. There is nothing to be afraid of!
Yan Shou's face immediately became more dignified, and he said: "Prison leader? Prison leader named Zhou! Haha, you are talking about the prisoner Zhou who was dismissed from his post for embezzlement and bribery of prisoners' money more than ten years ago. head?"

Mr. Zhou was embarrassed when he heard Yan Shou mention this. After all, these things done by elders are not honorable at all! Mr. Zhou suddenly felt even more embarrassed. He hurriedly defended himself and said: "Well, my father has already come out, and there was a misunderstanding about the situation at that time. My father has already clarified it." Yan Shou showed a smile. With a hint of contempt, he said: "Haha, misunderstanding? Why didn't I hear about it?

It is a coincidence that due to the corruption case involving the collapse of the county government prison in Shanyang County, the county government did not have enough government servants available. In order to handle the case smoothly, the brothers from Shanyang Order were urgently coordinated to help the county government take over the prison.

I happened to be the junior corps commander in the Shanyang Order that year, and I happened to be responsible for guarding the prison leader Zhou. It was the kind of guard that was done day and night, whether he was eating, drinking, sleeping, or being arraigned in court for questioning. , I was always watching over it, so I couldn’t be more familiar with that case.

I remember it very clearly. That case was an ironclad case with solid evidence. How could it be a misunderstanding? Are you sure your father himself said such outrageous things? If that were the case, it would be an ironclad case of criticism and the crime would be punishable by imprisonment! "

When Mr. Zhou heard this, he was dumbfounded. When he thought that he had almost cheated his father unintentionally, he hurriedly said: "I can't remember these things about Chen Guzi and rotten sesame seeds. The focus of our matter today is not here. After all, it doesn’t matter who the common people are, what matters is that as people of Da Jing, we should all uphold the seriousness of Da Jing’s laws.”

Yan Shouyi said calmly: "Okay, that's good. Then how do you think we should maintain it?"

Mr. Zhou looked at Xu Bo'an fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "Your Excellency, this boy is dressed in rags, but he doesn't know how to avoid you in front of you regardless of the laws of the Great Scenery. According to the laws of the Great Scenery, five to ten blows with the cane are the punishment." ”

Yan Shouyi chuckled lightly and said: "I have a different opinion. This young man is not easy at first glance. It must be a sudden change in his family, most likely because of the war during this period. Such a person, How dare I beat him?"

Halfway through the words, Yan Shouyi said to Xu Boan again: "Young man, you must be here for a piece of clothing to cover your body. Although I, Yan Shouyi, will leave my post soon, I am also from Mengyin Shanyang County. My fellow villagers have nurtured me for so many years, and now I can still be regarded as one of the parents of Shanyang County. Come on, young man, just tell me what clothes you need to buy today. I will pay for the clothes. , it can be considered as one more trivial thing I can do for Shanyang County before I leave."

When Xu Boan heard this, he felt very happy. I'm really lucky today, someone wants to give me clothes again. There is a saying, there are benefits to dressing up as a beggar!

He was not polite to Yan Shouyi. After all, as a mountain god, he had helped Yan Shouyi a lot before. It was just a piece of clothing. Xu Boan didn't feel short-handed.

He immediately said with a smile: "Okay, that's very good, then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"

Mr. Zhou became even more depressed when he heard that even Yan Shouyi wanted to buy clothes for Xu Boan. What's going on today? First, Miss Su, whom he wanted to cling to, was stern with him, but showed love to that beggar-like guy. Then, Master Yan actually offered to buy him clothes.

I am the most famous and proud man in Xishan Town, the focus of everyone. Why did this kid steal all my limelight after he appeared!

I can't bear it, I absolutely can't bear it!

Mr. Zhou gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, think twice, this is absolutely impossible."

Yan Shou said: "How can I not do it!"

Mr. Zhou pointed at Xu Bo'an angrily and said: "Dajing Luli asked him to avoid it. It's fine if he doesn't. You also bought him clothes. Isn't this encouraging him in disguise? If this continues, I, Dajing Luli, will Where is the majesty?”

Yan Shouyi said sternly: "It's ridiculous. As a parent official of Shanyang County, what's wrong with me buying some clothes for my children? You kid keeps saying that you want to uphold the laws of Dajing. Are you sure you can learn to understand the laws of Dajing?" Do you really mean it? The regulations mention that you only need to do this during special missions or ceremonies. There are so many troubles when passing by. "

"Is there such a thing?" Mr. Zhou was a little unbelievable, but he couldn't seem to find any reasonable reason to refute it. He hadn't learned the laws for a long time. Originally, his family asked him to learn some laws so that he could have some knowledge. Chance was sent to the Yamen to be an official. After all, in the Jing Dynasty, the status of businessmen was not as high as that of officials.

But Mr. Zhou is really not a good student. He just learned a few things and memorized them, and he used them to scare the people in the fish and meat village. In the past, he could still scare people. Most people didn't even know the words anyway, let alone Don’t say you understand the law! Who would have known that today, unfortunately, he would meet a knowledgeable person.

Yan Shouyi snorted coldly and said: "Since your father was born as a jailor, he is naturally someone who understands the laws and regulations of Da Jing. If you don't know, just go back and ask your father. Don't make noise here and affect other people's business. "

This time, Master Zhou was still able to show his authority in front of ordinary people. In front of the general Yan Shouyi, he naturally did not dare to be disobedient. After hearing Yan Shouyi's words, Master Zhou did not say any more nonsense and bowed his head. After leaving, the few followers didn't have the courage to stay here anymore, and they all left in dejection with their tails between their legs.

The store owner, on the other hand, originally watched Mr. Zhou humiliating Xu Bo'an without saying a word. Now that the matter had calmed down, he turned to Xu Bo'an and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm really sorry for what happened just now. These people They are all kids from rich families in the neighborhood, and they are used to being arrogant, so you don’t need to pay too much attention to them.”

In fact, these words are not to comfort Xu Bo'an, but to tell Xu Bo'an that it's not that I didn't help you just now, but that I didn't dare to help you, and I can't afford to offend those people.

Of course, this was also meant for Yan Shou. Worried that Yan Shouyi would misunderstand that he was not honest.

Xu Bo'an didn't care too much. After all, the store still wanted to do business here. Naturally, he didn't want to offend Mr. Zhou. He couldn't use the standards of a saint to ask others to help him regardless of the consequences.

Xu Bo'an nodded and said disapprovingly: "Thank you, shopkeeper, for your advice. I won't take it to heart."

Yan Shouyi was too lazy to continue this topic. To him, this was simply an insignificant episode. He directly asked the store to cut the red cloth he wanted, told the store to make clothes for Xu Bo'an, and then went out again.

Xu Bo'an glanced at Yan Shouyi's back and smiled meaningfully.

You're going to Tushan Temple, so let's see you later.
