Daming talker

Chapter 122 Stop Pretending, I'm the Magistrate
Seeing that Deng Zhixian's face was not very good-looking, Mr. Zheng, the criminal name who accompanied Deng Zhixian on the trip, quickly comforted him and said:

"The proprietor travels in modest clothes, and outsiders don't know about it, so he doesn't know how to be courteous. It's not worth getting angry about it."

Deng Zhixian said angrily: "My name is Weifu private visit, but I don't believe it, with Lin Tailai's eyes and ears, how can I not know?
I'm afraid it's just him pretending not to know, pretending to collide! "

The yamen servant standing at the door of the cabin curled his lips. It seems that this new grand master is also a lover of formalism.

Even this private interview on Weibo is very formal.

Said it was a micro-service, but for the sake of safety, he took the official boat and called the government servant; but after sitting on the official boat, he refused to show the magistrate's honor guard, which was quite cowardly.

If it's a fake micro-service private visit, should others pretend to know, or pretend not to know?

Master Zheng also felt awkward, so he could only persuade him: "As the saying goes, seeing is believing, this shows that Lin Tailai's arrogance is rampant, and there is a way to die!"

From the big wharf outside Xumen, along the Xujiang River to the west, the boat sailed for ten miles, and then arrived at the node of the middle and lower reaches of the Xujiang River, Hengtang Town.

Master Zheng asked: "Does the proprietor want to go ashore to have a look?"

Through the window, Deng Zhixian looked at a wharf with prosperous boats and smelled the smell of fish blowing by the wind. He said, "That's probably where the Hengtang Fish Market is."

Master Zheng replied: "Yes, this is where Lin Tailai came from."

Deng Zhixian ordered: "Go to Mudu Town first today, and go to Hengtang Town on the way back."

Master Zheng understood that Dengzhi County wanted to see the strength of the third hall in Mudu Town first, so that he could make a decision on the next step.

So the official boat continued westward along the Xu River, and after another dozen miles of waterway, Mudu, the largest town in the west of Wu County, appeared in the sight of Dengzhi County.

Mudu Town and Hengtang Town are similar in that they are both at the junction of two important rivers and are a transportation hub.

However, unlike Hengtang Town, which is too close to Suzhou City and unable to grow, Mudu Town is relatively far from Suzhou City, which has an advantage.

Now Mudu Town has developed into the core of the region, the central town on the east bank of Taihu Lake, somewhat similar to the status of Hushu Town in Changzhou County.

If the ships coming from the direction of the northern canal want to enter Suzhou City, most of them have to pass through Hushu Pass.
Then ships coming from the direction of Taihu Lake must first pass through Mudu Town before going to Suzhou City.

Therefore, only one town in Mudu can accommodate three dining halls.

Now the port pier in Mudu Town has been cleared out for a private visit from the new county magistrate.

It is true that Deng Zhixian did not wear official robes, but only casual clothes when he disembarked from the boat and landed.

All the big leaders of the three halls in Mudu Town were on the pier, and Deng Zhixian, who was visiting privately in his micro-service, still greeted them with big gifts, and he really did not judge people by their clothes.

Master Zheng introduced each to Deng Zhi County: "This is Yang Zhen, Qin Yan, and Qiao Jingchuan, the leaders of the righteous men in Mudu Town!"

The organizational form of the three halls in Mudu Town is actually slightly different from that of Anletang, a traditional rural hall, and they all appear in the form of "business names".

It's just that these "firms" are not doing any serious business, such as smuggling, and the customs of the Jianghu still call these "firms" "tangkou".

After accepting the gift, Deng Zhixian didn't pay attention to the three leaders Yang, Qin, and Qiao, but looked behind the three leaders.

San Tang probably also knew what Dengzhi County wanted to see, so he directly organized hundreds of people to welcome Deng Zhixian at the pier.

Those who are not good in image are not allowed to come, only those who are of decent height are selected.

Deng Zhixian's eyes kept scanning the guys, as if he was assessing something.

Seeing this, Yang Zhen, the leader of the three alliances, beckoned to the guys.

Hundreds of guys who had been trained in advance shouted at Deng Zhixian: "I wish to do my best!"

The sound was like thunder, as if it could shake mountains and mountains, and even the Xujiang River was shaken by it.

Deng Zhixian nodded in satisfaction. It seems that the spirit of these community members in Mudu Town is very good.

Master Zheng said next to him: "If there were such an elite warrior, Lin Tailai would really have defeated Xu Jiang and made him unified."

Until now, Dengzhi County has made up his final determination.

First, if Lin Tailai is executed, Wang Shizhen and Wang Xijue will definitely be able to get along well; if Lin Tailai is not executed, Wang Shizhen will definitely hate herself.

Second, the Shen government may not care much about Lin Tailai.

Could it be that Shen Shoufu could turn against the two old kings for such a person he had never met before?

In Deng Zhixian's heart, there is no problem that cannot be solved.

As long as he thought about it, could it be that a Bailihou can't do anything to a stick leader?
The only concern is that after the destruction of Lin Tailai's evil forces, the order may be temporarily chaotic, which will affect the collection of money and food this year, so there are still problems of aftermath and stability.

If the three halls in Mudu Town have enough strength, they can use them as much as possible.

Yang Zhen took the opportunity to invite and said: "The villain built a small garden by the river, and in the garden there is a river pavilion, the scenery is quite impressive.

Now it's time to eat, the villain set up a banquet at the Wangjiang Pavilion to honor Mr. Deng, and boldly asked Mr. Deng to move to the Wangjiang Pavilion. "

Deng Zhixian accepted the invitation gladly, and went to Wangjiang Pavilion with Mr. Zheng and the three leaders.

After drinking for three rounds and eating a few mouthfuls of food, Master Zheng deliberately asked: "Since the last retreat, has Lin Tailai's men and horses come to Mudu again?"

Yang Zhen replied proudly: "Then Lin Tailai is afraid that we will work together and be strong, so how dare he come to Mudu again!"

Master Zheng asked again: "You three halls have outstanding strength and occupy a favorable position upstream, why don't you take the initiative to attack?"

This time Yang Zhen said winkingly again: "Our three halls have always followed the orders of the government. How dare we overstep without the permission of the government?"

Master Zheng asked again: "What if I let you go to Hengtang Town and fight with An Le Tang?"

Yang Zhen immediately expressed his determination on behalf of Santang: "As long as Master Deng gives an order, we will definitely use all our troops to wait for Mudu Santang to go down the river and point our sword at Hengtang!"

Master Zheng offered a glass of wine to the three leaders and praised:
"Okay! If there is no thunder, how can the county people know the meaning of the county lord's enlightenment!"

Yang Zhen patted his chest, "Don't worry, gentlemen! Others may be afraid, but we, Santang, are definitely not afraid of Lin Tailai!"

Before the words were finished, a man standing guard outside Wangjiang Pavilion suddenly shouted: "Isn't that Lin Tailai!"

Immediately, other guys asked, "Where? Where?"

The people in the pavilion only saw a small boat appearing in their field of vision.

This is not a strange thing at all. Since it is called Wangjiang Pavilion, it must be able to see the river view. It is normal for there to be boats on the river.

But the boat gradually sailed towards the Wangjiang Pavilion, and when it got closer, everyone could see it clearly.

I saw that the boat was very small, like a flat boat on the surface of the Xu River.

Except for the rowing boatman, there were only three people on board.

The first person was more than a head taller than the others, with a strong physique, on the bow of the boat, wearing a green shirt with fluttering sleeves.

There was another person, leaning on a big gun, standing behind the big man in blue.

"It's really Lin Tailai!" The guy standing guard by the river screamed again!

Everyone in the pavilion was stunned and speechless. Isn't your image of Lin Tailai Xiao Fengxian, and occasionally the teacher Lin, what the hell is it today?

And they couldn't understand why Lin Tailai suddenly appeared alone.
The boat docked casually, and Professor Lin threw off his two 1.2-meter-long legs, and jumped onto the shore with one stride.

As if feeling the strong coercion, the young men of Santang in Mudu Town, who were standing guard by the river, took a few steps back one after another, only then did they get rid of the imposing attack from Xiao Fengxian, the Iron Fist and Golden Whip.

Deng Zhixian looked at Yang Zhen with dissatisfaction. The guys at the entrance of Guitang chanted slogans that shook the sky just now, but they just met the real Lin Tailai like this?

Leader Yang also felt that he didn't look good, so he secretly instructed to call all the people who can be called;
Standing up, he shouted at Lin Tailai: "What are you doing!"

Lin Tailai didn't bother to answer, and proudly walked towards Wangjiang Pavilion.

Yang Zhen hurriedly commanded his men, "Stop him!"

All the minions reluctantly gathered towards the entrance of the pavilion, blocking Lin Tailai's front.

But Deng Zhixian in the pavilion said at this moment, "Let him in! Let's see what he dares to do!"

So all the minions outside the pavilion seemed to be pardoned, thinking that the county magistrate was still considerate, and hurriedly gave way to the passage.

Lin Tailai walked into the pavilion in a big way, ignored the most respected Magistrate Deng, but first said to Yang Zhen:
"You are Yang, the person in charge of the Three Churches Alliance in Mudu Town?"

As the saying goes, the master is worried about the humiliation of his ministers, Master Zheng scolded angrily: "Zhu Zi'an dare to be rude!"

According to the normal rules of etiquette, after Lin Tailai came in, he should first salute the highest-ranking magistrate of Deng County, and then talk about things.

But Lin Tailai's performance is clearly that he has no one in his eyes, and he has no magistrate in his eyes.

No matter what kind of professor you are or Imabu, no matter how arrogant and domineering the leader of the club, no one dares to be so rude in front of parents and officials!

Such a person counts as one, and they are all lunatics!And all have no happy ending!

Even a few guards and yamen servants drew their knives, waiting for the magistrate's order.

Lin Tailai responded blankly, "What's your impoliteness? Could it be that you accidentally offended some noble person?"

Master Zheng: "."

Lin Tailai, why are you pretending to be stupid!Have you never seen Dengzhi County?

Just as Master Zheng was about to say a few words, he remembered that the magistrate of Deng County was visiting privately in name only.

So he looked at Deng Zhixian and asked with his eyes if he wanted to reveal his identity publicly.

At this moment, suddenly everyone in the pavilion heard Lin Tailai muttering loudly: "A private visit in a micro-service should look like a private visit in a micro-service."

Deng Zhixian is no longer angry, because in his eyes, Lin Tailai is already a dead person, there is no need to be angry with a dead person.

"Sit down first!" Deng Zhixian said to Master Zheng.

Yang Zhen, the head of the Three Church Alliance in Mudu Town, quickly took over the conversation for Mr. Zheng, and asked Lin Tailai:

"It's Yang Zhen down here. I don't know why Lin Zuozuo found this place."

Lin Tailai said casually: "I heard that you told people everywhere that I, Lin Tailai, dare not go to Mudu Town again? So I came here."

Yang Zhen glanced at Dengzhi County, then at the outside of the pavilion, laughed and said, "Since you're here, don't leave!"

At this time, nearly a hundred staff members had gathered outside the pavilion, as well as government servants brought by Dengzhi County. Everyone had weapons.

Even if Lu Bu was alive, Lin Tailai would never want to leave!

And the great god of Dengzhi County is sitting in town, he doesn't believe that Lin Tailai really dares to kill officials and rebel!

Deng Zhixian glanced at Yang Zhen appreciatively, he was indeed a sensible person!
It's too troublesome to go through procedural punishments to deal with certain black and evil forces who have no laws, so it's better to kill them directly here to save worry!
But Professor Lin, who was in a dangerous situation, took his time and fumbled in his sleeves.

This action immediately aroused the horror of everyone in the pavilion!
Everyone knows that Lin Tailai has a trick called "Sleeve Universe"!
Lin Tailai hurriedly said again: "Everyone, don't be afraid! I'm just looking for a file!"

Immediately, a ticket appeared in his hand: "The Hushu Customs Office summoned Yang Zhen, Qin Yan, and Qiao Jingchuan to the court for a hearing!"

Everyone: "."

It was completely unexpected that Lin Tailai did this trick.

No wonder Lin Tailai dared to follow the example of others to go to the meeting alone, because he has a strong support for his affection.

After Yang Zhen came back to his senses, he yelled sharply: "You, Lin Tailai, don't talk about the morals of the world, and you collude with the government to harm your comrades, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed!"

Lin Tailai pointed helplessly at Dengzhi County, and asked, "Is this your Jianghu morality?"

Yang Zhen was speechless, turned to Deng Zhi County, and asked: "Master Deng, please be the master of the villain!"

The Hushuguan Customs Office is also a government office, and the best way to deal with official troubles is to invite official figures to settle them.

Deng Zhixian took the case and shouted: "It's ridiculous! This is Wu County, when will the Hushu Customs Office come to question people?

Don't think that with the power of the customs office, you can run amok in Wu County! "

Deng Zhixian must express his position like this. If he can't even cover people, who will come to seek refuge?
Lin Tailai pointed to Yang Zhen and said, "The three of them are suspected of smuggling. The case is serious. The customs office is going to investigate this matter!"

Deng Zhixian reprimanded: "They are residents of Wuxian County, no matter what, they have nothing to do with the Customs Office! Even if they are involved in the case, Wu County will come to investigate!
As the county magistrate, I will absolutely not allow other government agencies to arrest the citizens of this county at will!

This officer also advises you, don't take outsiders' chicken feathers as arrows! "

When Deng Zhixian scolded him, he even said "I am the magistrate" and "this official" smoothly.

There is a kind of meaning of "I don't pretend anymore, I have a showdown, I am the magistrate".

If the county magistrate wants to cover up a mere smuggling case, he can still cover it up!
Even if the lawsuit goes to the imperial court, the reason is on Wu County's side, and the customs office has no right to go to the local area to arrest people!
If Lin Tailai could pretend to be ignorant of the county before, now he can't.

According to normal logic, after the nobleman's identity is revealed, Professor Lin should accept his head and bow.

But Lin Tailai still didn't panic, looked at the river and said:

"As I said just now, private visits via microservices should look like private visits via microservices.

To show his identity and cover up the suspect is tantamount to asking for trouble. "

Everyone was stunned again, did Lin Tailai really lose his mind?Who are you talking to?

Apart from losing his mind, there is no other answer to explain Lin Tailai's words and deeds!

Deng Zhixian sneered: "If you don't do it, you will die. If you want to die, don't blame me for being rude!"

Suddenly there was a sound of hurried hoofbeats, and another yamen servant galloped along the river, and shouted loudly: "The county yamen urgently reports!"

In the blink of an eye, the yamen servant rolled off his horse, threw himself outside Wangjiang Pavilion, bowed his head and reported:

"There is an imperial edict! In order to curb smuggling and collect tax money, the hubs such as Mudu Port in Wu County and Likou Port in Changzhou County around Suzhou City will be assigned to the Hushu Customs Administration for unified jurisdiction, and separate customs will be set up!"

Everyone: "."

The yamen servant added in horror: "I heard that the tax envoy Wang recommended Lin Tailai to be the chief official of the Mudu port branch!"

Everyone: "."

In the silent Wangjiang Pavilion, only Lin Tailai reprimanded dissatisfiedly: "Who are you talking about when you say you are riding a horse?"

The officer who reported the letter turned pale in an instant, and he kowtowed below to report, but he didn't see who else was in the booth above!

He just felt that if the words "riding horses" were not used, it would not be enough to describe the shock in his heart!
　Dizziness, stuffy nose, various discomforts, wrist still hurts, it would be good if I can keep updating [-] words, let me take it easy today.
