Chapter 60 Master

"Dad, brother will definitely find it," Gu Xin said, reaching out and hugging Gude.

"Dad is fine, we still have you." Goode wiped his tears, patted Gu Xin on the shoulder and said, "

Gu Xin was so happy to know that he had an older brother. Although he couldn't find it now, it didn't mean he couldn't find it in the future. Even if he left, someone would take care of the Gude and his wife.

Gu Xin himself didn’t know why he adopted these children. It was legal to buy and sell people in ancient times. Maybe it was because he saw the children looking at home!

The ox cart was wandering around and finally arrived at the county town. Gu Xin should have gotten off in the town, but when he thought that the village chief was doing his own business, he told Gu De that he could buy pens and ink everywhere, so he should go to the county with the village chief. Gu De was his daughter and said what he said was. In fact, Gu Xin had never seen the ancient yamen before and found an excuse to go into the yamen.

The ox cart stopped at the entrance of the county government office, and two stone lions sat upright at the entrance of the yamen. There are three gates in the county government office, the eastern Qinglong and the western White Tiger, and there is a middle gate in the middle. The government offices are all covered by north and south, and open to the south Cross Street, so it should be seen from the inside that the left and the right White Tiger is in line with the Feng Shui requirements.

The people usually go to Qinglong Gate. If a superior official comes to inspect the middle gate, the murderer walks through the White Tiger Gate, which is also known as the Killing Gate.

Gu Xin didn't know that there was so much to say when he entered the yamen. When he got off the bus, Gu Xin went straight to the middle gate. Village chief Zhou Jianbo passed by Gu Xin and told Gu Xin, and then led Gu Xin into the Qinglong Gate on the left.

Gu Xin only said that since ancient times, the yamen faced south, and if you have any reason or money, don’t come in. Although it is a rumor, it does not mean it is not true.

As soon as Gu Xin and the others entered the yamen, they then walked in through the middle door with a soft sedan chair.

The yamen is not quiet. At this time, the county magistrate should have sat on the yamen case. But now, except for the chariot hanging on the yamen case, there is no sign of the first person hanging from the chariot, except for the plaque hanging with four large characters hanging high on the mirror.

Gu Xin was curious about the ancient yamen. He looked at the things placed on the table and reached out to touch them, but Gu De pulled them aside and glared at them, meaning that Gu Xin would not touch them randomly.

There are a canopy, a sign and a printing box on the official case. The seal is placed in the seal box. The printing pad is placed on the printing rack. The red and black inkstones have been ground and can be used at any time. A red and ink pen is hung on the pen holder next to the inkstone. There are four signs next to the pen holder, and a word is engraved on each sign. Together, it is the four words "Strict Enforcement" and "Secret" in the four signs. Four red, green, black and white are placed in the four signs. The four signs of red, green, black and white are respectively placed. Gu Xin doesn't know what the signs of red, green, black and white are meant.

"Who are you?" asked a man in his early twenties and wearing head-catching clothes.

"I am Zhou Jianbo, the village chief of Hengshan Village. I have adopted several children in the village and are here to settle down today." Zhou Jianbo said

"It turned out to be the village chief Zhou. Today, a distinguished guest came to the yamen. The county magistrate is in the backyard. I'll call the master to handle it for you." The man said, clasping his fists like Zhou Jianbo and bowed.

From outside the door, footsteps came from far to near, and a man in his forties came in. He had a fair face, two beards, a pair of triangular eyes, and a long silk gown. He coaxed Zhou Jianbo and said, "It turns out he was Zhou Xiucai, and he was in a bad mood."

Although he was polite, he was more like perfunctory. Gu Xin frowned, saying that face was born from the heart. No matter how you look at this person, you look like a sarcastic person.

"Master Mao is polite. I'm here to transfer the children adopted in the village. I'm sorry, Master Mao!" The village chief said as he voluntarily transferred the children, handing them over with the paper with his handprints and fifty taels of silver.

Master Mao took the paper and silver, sat on the small table beside the desk, looked at Zhou Jianbo and said, "There are twelve people who settled in. There are quite a few people, and they all fall into one family. This is a lot of money to buy people. Take this..." Master Mao was so excited that the meaning of the money in his hand was very obvious.

Village chief Zhou Jianbo came forward and was about to take out silver from his sleeve. Gu Xin looked at him and blatantly made money. He stepped forward to press the village chief's sleeve and said to Master Mao: "Old friends do not only have relatives, not only their sons, but also their sons. The elderly have a place to live, the strong have a place to use, the young have a place to grow up, the widows, widows, orphans, orphans, and sick have a place to raise them. We are now the sage of the Dayin Dynasty. We hope that the people of Dayin will have peace and prosperity. We are sharing the worries and problems for the sage, not buying and selling people."

"The child of Huangkou is full of nonsense, and he dares to disturb the county government." Master Mao pointed at Gu Xin and said.

"Are I wrong about what I said? Master Mao, you mean that the emperor today does not want the people to live and work in peace and contentment." Gu Xin said to Master Mao.

"You, when did I say to the Lord that someone would arrest this boy who disturbed the yamen?" Master Mao said angrily

"I didn't see who disturbed the yamen. Master Mao, tell me," said two men, one of them.

He spoke with one of the two men. He was thirty years old and had a elegant face. He was wearing a good blue cloud brocade gown. He blinked at Gu Xin.

The man next to him was just over the age of a young age, with long beards and slightly fat body. He followed the man in blue clothes and was quite respectful.

Gu Xin met the man and saw that it was Mu Xiuyu. When he was on the edge of the cliff, he seemed to be wearing an official robe, but he didn't know how old he was.

"See the Prime Minister" Mr. Qian went to pay a salute. Today, the Prime Minister came to the county government office. He originally wanted to show his feelings in front of the Prime Minister, but he didn't expect that Gu Xin and the others would settle down, which made him lose the opportunity to perform, so he wanted to collect more money from Zhou Jianbo, but he didn't expect that he was caught by Mu Xiuyu in such a back.

Gu Xin is a modern person who does not have the habit of kneeling down. Zhou Jianbo has the reputation of a scholar and can avoid kneeling. Gu De stood there with a serious face, but he did not mean to kneel down.

"I'll see the magistrate boldly and don't pay my respects yet," said the county magistrate.

"Meet the Master of the Palace" Gu Xin bowed to Mu Xiuyu.

"Don't give up the gift, why doesn't Master Mao know when Dayin's law stipulates that the adoption of beggars requires money." Mu Xiuyu said

"Sir, please forgive me, but I will never commit any more if I am confused for a while." Master Mao said on his knees on the ground and said

"Mr. Wu is worthy of praise for meeting such a commoner who can help the emperor solve problems. Are you right?" Mu Xiuyu said to the county magistrate.

"What the lord said is that Master Mao is not going to settle down quickly, and he is allocating 100 taels of silver from the account to Village Chief Zhou." The county magistrate said

"If you are a villain, go and do it now." Master Mao stood up and replied.

Gu Xin and his friends walked out of the county government office and took the settlement documents. They felt a little incredible. The change was too fast, and it really responded to the saying that the senior official was a senior, and when Gu Xin saw Master Mao hunching, he felt relieved.

Uncle Li was sitting on the ox cart waiting for Gu Xin and the others. Gu Xin and the others got on the ox cart. It was just noon. Gu Xin said he would find a place to have dinner first.
