Chapter 407
When the people saw this scene, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.
It turns out that the person living in Zhang Laoer’s house is really a big shot!
Although they didn't know who the person holding the governor's order was, they knew from the reaction of these two people that his status was definitely not low.
Zhang Shuitong's eyes brightened even more. Although the entrance to the backyard was temporarily empty, she seemed to see glory and wealth from that entrance.
Although these people did not know what the governor's order meant, the two officers and soldiers knew it clearly. The governor is the highest official like a local governor. He is usually sent directly by the central court and has administrative, military, supervisory and judicial powers for the entire region. , they are all directly appointed by the emperor. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the emperor's eyes and mouth outside.
Which ordinary governor is not a close confidant of the emperor!
When they came out of this trip, they originally thought that they would finally be able to go out to the army and enjoy two days of light activities, but they didn't know that they would meet the governor at Zhang Lao'er's house. If they had known earlier, they would have given this job to others no matter what.
Zhang Laoer's family looked at this scene and were stunned. They did not expect that the person they received at their home was really a big shot. The idea of asking the governor for help flashed through their minds, but they soon became dejected.
The governor must have important things to do and had to conceal his identity, but unexpectedly, he was forced to reveal his identity because of their family's affairs. They had caused such a big trouble to others, so how could they have the nerve to ask the governor for help.
But just when Mrs. Zhang was despairing, she heard Zhejing say again: "The governor is asking about Mr. Zhang's desertion. You two should tell us everything in detail."
The two soldiers were completely dumbfounded. They knew that they had hit a brick wall, but they dared not to obey. They could only tell everything they knew with a grimace.
In fact, what the two of them knew was not specific. They only knew that a warning whistle was blown in the military camp that night, saying that there was a deserter. When they saw the person, the person had fallen down the hillside and was bitten half to death by the army's hounds. , when he was finally brought back, he had less air in and more air out. Then he was paraded as a deserter and beaten to death.
"Sir, that's all we know. No matter how much more, we really don't know. In the army, even Zhang Laoer's fellow villagers and a man sleeping in the camp said that he ran away secretly in the middle of the night. It's really not us. I have wronged him." The two of them were completely bitter at this moment.
"There is no way my dad could be a deserter! The wooden swords my dad promised to make for us are ready, and he will bring them to us in two days. How could he be a deserter? He was wrongly accused!" Xiaohua caught Holding two small wooden swords, he ran forward and held them up for everyone to see, wanting to prove his father's innocence.
The two soldiers were suddenly under great pressure. They had gone through Zhang Laoer's bag and took away the money inside. Naturally, they also saw the two wooden swords. They didn't touch them because they were worthless. Who knew they would encounter this? One crop.
How do they know whether Zhang Laoer was wronged? They were just following orders.
But now think about it carefully, this second son's family is full of old, weak, women and children, and these people can't escape. How can he be a deserter, and his holiday will be in two days, wouldn't it be more convenient for him to escape by then?
The two of them felt unlucky in their hearts. They could have gone to the town for a happy day after finishing their errands, but now they were in trouble. The errands were not done well, and they had offended a big shot. They might be punished even more if they went back.
As soon as Zhejing stretched out his hand, Xiaohua immediately handed over the wooden sword.
He looked at it for a moment, then looked at the scattered packages on the ground, picked up the half-polished wax block, asked everyone to wait, and then returned to the backyard.
"Sir, this wooden sword is extremely delicately made, but there is still the last bit of wax left."
Zhejing returned to the backyard and showed the things to Xie Yuan and Su Youyue.
"My subordinates speculate that there is something fishy about Zhang Lao Er. If the original date of return is to be followed, the two wooden swords should have been waxed."
Su Youyue also received a small wooden sword.
That wooden sword is indeed well made.
She also played with them when she was a child, some were made by her father, and some were made by the most exquisite carpenter in Yanjing City, but the two in front of her were not inferior to those in the slightest.
Just by looking at it, you can tell how much care Zhang Laoer put into making wooden swords for his two children.
How could such a person suddenly and unreasonably become a deserter?
When there was a commotion in the front yard, the secret guards had already explained everything to them, and many people in the front yard were making loud noises, and they could hear it clearly.Knowing the whole story, Su Youyue couldn't help but recall how happy Xiaohua and Agou were when they mentioned their father was coming back a few days ago.
But she didn't know Xie Yuan's plan, so she didn't speak.
Now they are still in King Rong's territory, so if they want to do things, they will naturally have all kinds of inconveniences.
When they return to the capital, they can send someone to solve the matter. However, Zhang Laoer's family may have to suffer for a while, or at least be subject to rumors.
Xie Yuan's face was cold: "Send a message for them to conduct a thorough investigation again."
Zhejing immediately took the order and went out.
Su Youyue couldn't help but feel relieved.
In fact, Xie Yuan was never the savage beast she imagined in her previous life. His methods were extreme, but he was also tolerant to those who committed great evil and to civilians.
It's just that he won't argue with those people, which makes those reputations spread more and more.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the small wooden sword in her hand, but her mood sank again.
Regardless of whether this dick is a deserter or not, there is no doubt that the sky has fallen in this family...
In the coming days, the cold moon and warm sun will only fry one's life.
In the front yard, everyone was anxiously waiting. Only Zhang Laoer's family was still sobbing. Everyone felt empty in their hearts, as if a large piece had been taken away.
"The governor has an order to re-investigate Zhang Laoer's desertion." Zhe Jing ordered coldly.
The two officers and soldiers complained in their hearts, but they quickly nodded and bowed their heads and agreed, and quickly gave Wu Xiaolian the monthly salary they had taken away from Zhang Laoer's bag.
"We forgot earlier that Zhang Pongfa received a salary, here it is for you!"
After the two of them finished speaking, they wanted to run away, but one of them suddenly remembered something, turned around, and asked bitterly: "Brother, what is the governor's last name? It would be bad if we brothers can't even pronounce him by his first name when we go back." Explain."
Zhejing's face was calm: "The governor's trip this time is to carry out secret official duties. You only need to go back and report. In half a month, someone from above will come over and ask how the matter is."
The two of them didn't dare to ask any more questions after hearing this, so they quickly nodded and bowed, and ran out without looking back.
When the villagers from Xiaohe Village outside saw it, they all changed their tune instantly.
"It seems that this trousers may have been wronged, otherwise how could the governor make the decision for him!"
"What kind of official is this governor?"
"He must be a powerful official. Didn't you see that the two officials were frightened! The Zhang Laoer family has really met a noble man!"
Listening to this, Zhang Laoer's family finally had some hope in their despairing faces.
The second child must have been unjustly accused. He has been a soldier for ten years. Even if he dies, he cannot be unjustly accused of being a deserter. Otherwise, how could he close his eyes in this hell!
