Borrow the day to change the day

I saw Dian Shi (the county lieutenant was abolished in the Ming Dynasty and changed to Dian Shi, the previous article was wrong and has been revised) straightened his clothes, regardless of the fact that the patriarch surnamed Wu was being slapped, took two steps forward, and knelt down on the ground , kowtowed and said: "The official history of Zhuji County kowtowed to the lord, the official came late, let the people from the country bump into the lord, the official is guilty."

The patriarch surnamed Wu was originally threatened to slap his mouth. Although the corner of his mouth was bleeding, he still gritted his teeth and waited for Dian Shi to rescue him.

Unexpectedly, seeing this scene out of the corner of his eye, his hope was cut short, and the other party was an official who was about to kneel in Dian Shi, and he was immediately frightened out of his wits.

You must know that the adults who made Dianshi take the initiative to kneel down to plead guilty must be at least officials of the third rank or above.

When the tea shop owner saw it, he was relieved, it was finally the best ending he had expected.

But he was still a little strange, although it seemed that the young man should be a high-ranking official, but he was very kind to the people like himself, which is really rare!

Although Zhong Jinwei has been in charge of the army for many years, many people died in front of him with one order.But he didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately. Seeing that the patriarch's mouth was covered with blood, he waved his hand and let the patriarch release the patriarch Wu.

The servant got the order, took the knife away from the patriarch's neck, inserted it back into the scabbard, turned around and walked back to his place.

The patriarch surnamed Wu's legs softened and he knelt down on the ground.His mouth was full of blood, while his son's mouth was full of mud, kneeling there one after the other, shocking all the villagers.

The patriarch, who was usually aloof, unexpectedly ended up like this.

Zhong Jinwei looked at the canon and saw his panicked face, knowing that he probably guessed Dongchang's identity.

Zhong Jinwei didn't say anything, but just said to the Dianshi: "These murderers committed crimes on the side of this concrete road with people coming and going, and smashed their tea shop. I happened to bump into them."

Having said that, he turned his head and pointed to Wu Moquan's family who was sitting with him, let Dianshi see the sufferer, and then continued: "Since you are the county's Dianshi, you will be dealt with according to the law! I hope you will take care of it in the future. Take care of the law and order in your county, and don't let this kind of thing that disrupts order in broad daylight happen again."

Dian Shi took a look at Wu Moquan's family, he recognized the people from Wujia Village, knew that this person took the lead in disobedience to the patriarch, and forced his son to go to primary school.

He didn't know what the relationship between Wu Moquan and this lord was, but he didn't have time to figure it out, so he hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, yes, I must take good care of the law and order in this county."

Zhong Jinwei glanced at the patriarch surnamed Wu, and then ordered: "I heard that some clans force their own people not to go to elementary school. You must investigate this matter strictly. Going to free elementary school is the grace of the court and the emperor's gift." Grand Master En. If you don’t want to go to elementary school, forget it, but whoever dares to force others not to go to elementary school must be punished!”

"The lower official understands, the lower official must investigate strictly." Dian Shi didn't dare to raise his head, so he could only agree repeatedly.

From Zhong Jinwei's tone of voice, he has already judged that this person's identity may be greater than he imagined.

"Get up, let me ask you another question." Zhong Jinwei saw that he was still very good, so he asked him to get up and talk.

When Dian Shi heard this, he kowtowed again to thank him, and then stood up, standing in a well-behaved manner.

Among the villagers not far behind, there are some clever people who have come to their senses by this time.They threw away the utensils in their hands one after another, so as not to cause trouble to their upper body.

In this way, it led other people to quickly throw away their fighting tools, and the movement became even bigger.

Zhong Jinwei glanced at it, but didn't care about it.It is enough to deal with the leaders, there is no need to care about these low-level people.

He looked at Dian Shi and asked, "Do you know where the teacher of the primary school lives?"

"Your official knows." Dian Shi lowered his head and replied respectfully.

"Okay, take me to meet him, I have something to ask him." After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he stood up.

When Wu Moquan's family saw it, they also stood up quickly.After knowing that Zhong Jinwei was an official older than Dian Shi, he became a lot more cautious.

Zhong Jinwei turned around to look at their family, and then said to Chang Jian: "Give them a tael."

With a promise, Yu Changjian took out the Jiusibao note from his bosom, counted out ten taels, and handed it to Wu Moquan.

"No, no, no, the grassroots dare not accept it." Wu Moquan still had the guts to accept Zhong Jinwei's money, and it was still as much as twelve taels.

Zhong Jinwei smiled at him, looked at the little guy, and said: "With a little capital, you can start a small business without relying on the clan to live. Support your son to go to school, a very ambitious child, maybe he will have a future Not necessarily."

Hearing what Zhong Jinwei said, for the sake of his son, Wu Moquan mustered up the courage to take it.

Then he brought his wife and son, knelt down on the ground together, kowtowed to Zhong Jinwei, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. I don't know which lord it is? The grass people went home and set up a longevity tablet to enshrine your benefactor."

Zhong Jinwei smiled at the child, ignored Wu Moquan, and went out.

Dian Shi really wanted to hear, what kind of god is this lord?But he didn't hear Zhong Jinwei's answer, so he was a little disappointed.

He glanced at the few people kneeling on the ground, and then shouted to his subordinates: "Take them all to the county government prison." Then he hurried to serve Zhong Jinwei.

Along the way, Dian Shi carefully explained to Zhong Jinwei beside Zhong Jinwei's horse's head: "My lord, the lower officials are only with the patriarch because of tax collection and security inspections. My lord, you also know that this place is We still have to rely on these squires to maintain..."

Zhong Jinwei waved his hand, interrupting Dian Shi's speech.He knew that Dianshi's explanation in this way was to clear up his relationship with the patriarch, so as not to implicate him if he pursued it.

Zhong Jinwei looked down at Dian Shi and said: "In the local situation, you must distinguish between good and bad squires. Otherwise, this place will be handed over to such a bad squire, which will ruin the prestige of the court. Do you know?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the lower officials must pay attention." Seeing that Zhong Jinwei didn't intend to pursue it, Dian Shi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and responded repeatedly to Zhong Jinwei.

But because Dianshi said this, Zhong Jinwei remembered the clan again.

In this rural village, the government of the Ming Dynasty is entrusted to the local gentry to manage it.And the local gentry are often the patriarchs of the same clan.They manipulate the big and small affairs of the village, and in a sense, they can be regarded as a local emperor.

In order to implement various policies of the Ming Dynasty and ensure long-term peace and stability in the countryside, the power of the local emperor must be disintegrated.

But Zhong Jinwei knew that it would be too difficult to disintegrate the cohesion of the clan and destroy the foundation of the Tu Emperor.
