Chapter 198 I am an officer of the Ming Dynasty (second update)
Li Shuchu, deputy envoy of the Shanxi Inspection Department, just entered Pingyao County in a sedan chair.

Although grandpa is a famous doctor Li Shizhen, he doesn't know what's going on, and he tends to vomit easily when riding in a carriage.

So I can only go on the road in a sedan chair.

"Ji Gui, how far is it to Pingyao County?"

Li Shuchu opened the curtain of the sedan chair window and asked.

"Go back to the boss, there are still two miles."

"Ah."

Ji Gui lowered the curtains on the carriage.

He is a native of Shanxi, he is almost 40 years old, and he is still a Juren.

After repeated misses, he gradually became disheartened.

The expectation of the imperial examination has changed from a young age to an old disappointment!

How many people have passed the exam from teenagers to Baishou, but they may not be able to pass.

Although juren can also be an official, unless the ancestors smoked green smoke or were willing to spend money, the highest can be a county magistrate.

But there are too many candidates waiting for the real shortage!

Even if you spend money, you may not be able to beat others, and wait for the court to allocate it. Maybe when you die, you will not be in the queue yet.

Therefore, a large part of these people choose to be aides of senior officials.

In order to expect to be appreciated by senior officials, so as to enter the officialdom.

Ji Gui is now Li Shuchu's staff.

He heard that the officers and soldiers won successive victories, beheaded the hammer bandit leader He Jinzhao, and captured the hammer bandit He Jinzhao alive.

Ji Gui wanted to follow Li Shuchu over to have a look at the quality of this gang of hammer bandits.

The military exploits reported and compiled by the Ming army, or the military exploits robbed, are normal.

At this moment, the sound of horseshoes sounded.

Ji Gui lifted the curtain of the carriage to look in doubt.

Hu Dawei, a participating general of the Ming army, occupied Jiexiu County. Whether He Jinzhao was really beheaded or He Jinzhao was captured by Ningwu, he won the battle.

With them blocking in front of Pingyao, there will naturally be no bandits here, and they are also holding our Ming flag.

"The messenger asked, what's going on?

Shouting and yelling, he actually let the dignified fourth-rank officials out of the way, how courageous it is! "

Hearing Ji Gui's order, a little servant went to intercept the cavalry.

Although juren is of little importance in the court, it is not light in the local area. I don't know how many people rushed to contribute first, just to avoid paying taxes.

The boy was used to being rampant, so he stood in the middle of the road, pointing at the officer's nose and cursing.

"Let me tell you, sitting in the sedan chair in front is the former magistrate of Datong in the Ming Dynasty, and now the deputy envoy of the Shanxi Inspection Department, Mr. Li, is a fourth-rank official, assigned to Xunkou North Road, and awarded Doctor Zhongshun, and a fourth-rank Sanjie!"

Listening to the young servant's numerous treasures and self-reporting of his family, he looked proud.

With a smile on his face, He Jinchao asked in disbelief:
"Do you mean that sitting in the sedan chair in front is Li Shuchu, deputy envoy of the fourth-rank Shanxi inspection department of the Ming Dynasty?"

"You bastard, you dare to call the deputy's name directly, you really don't know how to live or die."

Snapped.

Before He Jinzhao could answer, Gao Yigong flicked his horsewhip, and the whipped boy lay on the ground and howled.

"If you dare to speak nonsense again, I will pull out your tongue."

Hearing Gao Yigong's threat, the servant gritted his teeth and sat up:
"I have never seen such a rampant Ming army in my life."

"Hey." Gao Yigong spat at him, "Hey, you saw it today."

He Jinzhao ignored a bullying dog and waved his hand casually: "We will escort Mr. Li into the city."

"Yes."

The soldiers under his command responded loudly, and they rode their horses to control Li Shuchu's chariot and bearers.

Immediately, someone went to Pingyao County to report that Mr. Li had arrived in person, and within a quarter of an hour all the officials would go outside the city to greet him.

Gao Yigong tied the servant and tied him behind the horse, and dragged him away. Do you really think that you can be easily spared by insulting the captain?
I have to teach you a lesson today.

Life is like a big fight.

Whether you accept it or not, it will always give you a hard time.

For example, Li Shuchu is rather confused at the moment.

He had never seen such an arrogant soldier before him.

Seeing him as a dignified senior official of the fourth rank, he was not polite, but pretended to kidnap him.

When Li Shuchu saw the house slave being dragged behind, he was a little annoyed, and motioned for the bearer to stop, stepped out, and looked up at the Ming army who took the lead:
"Who are you, what position are you, and report them one by one."

He Jinzhao rode on the horse, and said with a condescending smile, "But the deputy envoy is here?"

"Yes, it is the official."

Li Shuchu became more and more annoyed, this son was crazy to the extreme.

How dare those officers and soldiers stand and speak in front of this old man?
Even though I don't need you to kneel down and talk, it's because I'm magnanimous, not because you are so rude.

"That's fine."

He Jinzhao knocked on the horse's belly lightly, and walked forward.

"You idiot."

Ji Gui, an aide at the side, hurriedly grabbed Li Shuchu who was about to get angry: "My lord, don't get angry, I don't think these people are like officers and soldiers."

"Huh?" Li Shuchu turned from anger to astonishment: "What do you mean?"

"Looking at the entire Xuanda army, I've never heard of any commander-in-chief who has an army with one man and two horses under his command."

After Ji Gui finished speaking, Li Shuchu's face suddenly turned pale.

If this group of people were really thieves, no matter if they were high-ranking thieves or He thieves, they would certainly be able to afford such outfits by robbing wealthy households.

If they appeared here, wouldn't Jiexiu's Hu Dawei and others have been wiped out?
So what's the point of coming here this time to find out whether He Jinzhao was beheaded or captured alive?
Li Shuchu was helped to move forward step by step.

He looked back and forth, left and right, and all the cavalry around him were "guarding" him, the old man.

But Li Shuchu couldn't feel protected at all, and the meaning of being held hostage was even more obvious.

Ji Gui's mood was even more complicated. He originally planned to follow Li Shuchu to make a splash this time, but he didn't expect that the Ming army would pull his hips like this.

Let the thieves attack Pingyao like a broken bamboo, so will they be far behind when they attack Taiyuan?

Are these people He Jinzhao's generals?
When the magistrate of Pingyao County heard that Mr. Li was coming, he hurriedly gathered around and went outside the city to greet him in person.

Either way it couldn't have gone wrong.

When he arrived outside the city with the clerks and gentry, he saw groups of cavalry rushing into the city first, guarding the gates everywhere.

"Your Majesty Li is quite airy this time." The magistrate muttered softly.

"All the athletes from Ming Dynasty came here." The magistrate of Pingyao County said happily:

"In this way, you and I can save our lives. How can we save Pingyao by relying on those rural folks alone?"

"My lord is right."

When He Jinchao stepped forward on his horse, he immediately saw the green-robed official with the pattern of 鸂鶒 tattooed on his chest.

"You are the magistrate of Pingyao County?"

The county magistrate of the seventh rank is also the emperor of the soil. Seeing that a warrior didn't get off his horse to ask him, he was naturally annoyed.

But since he is a fourth-rank senior official Li Shuchu, he said coldly: "I am the official, what are you going to do?"

He Jinzhao pointed with his horsewhip: "Left and right, capture this dog official for me."
