Chapter 78
The dense leaves above his head blocked the hot sunlight. Xu Ping sat at the stone table under the tree, drinking tea slowly. Lu Fang stood beside him, frowned and helped Xu Ping think about whether there was any missing place. He could not leave Sishui County before he could take people to check for the missing.
When the rain passes, the sun comes out, and the water vapor on the ground steeps, which is even more stuffy than the previous days. On May 28th, Summer Solstice Festival, this rain passes, and the scorching heat is really coming.
In the house next to him, Liu Xiaoyi was packing his luggage. No matter when he left, the matter was done for this trip, so he would not be in a hurry when he was about to leave.
A soldier hurriedly came in from outside the yard, and the messy footsteps suddenly scared the cicadas roaring in the trees.
Xu Ping looked up at the soldiers walking in and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter? I'm so panicked!"
The soldier stopped and saluted with his hands: "Report to the deputy envoy, County Magistrate Zhang just now, the magistrate who came from Henan Prefecture had arrived outside the city. After he brought people to greet him, he came to pay homage to the deputy envoy!"
Xu Ping nodded: "I understand, go and do your business."
The soldier agreed and turned to the outsider.
Xu Ping breathed out a sigh of relief, but he was here. He was anxious to wait in Sishui County these two days. This is the problem of people. When they are busy, they don’t feel it, but they pass by day by day. When they are free, they will think about things, miss home, their wives and children, their fathers and mothers, and they feel that they can’t stay here for a day.
The heavenly king Yan collapsed and was talking nonsense. Zhang Dayou found a doctor in the county and prescribed him a few medicines to calm the mind. Wang Yan was also suspicious that Zhang Dayou wanted to harm him, and he didn't take medicine, but he just made a mess. He also had to treat his heart medicine, and the medicine could only play an auxiliary role. The key was to look at Wang Yan himself. He could wake up, and the medicine would help him recover faster. He couldn't get out of the vicious circle in his heart, and the medicine was useless, so he let him go.
Xu Ping was appointed as the deputy envoy of Yan and Iron with the Longtu Pavilion. He had no reason to go out to greet a local official, so he naturally lived and waited for him. Zhang Dayou brought him to pay homage to him.
Before long, there was a noise outside. The guards came in and reported that the people had arrived.
Zhang Dayou accompanied a middle-aged official into the yard and arrived in front of Xu Ping. The middle-aged official bowed and bowed: "Sun Mian, the left-behind Sitong, has met Xu Waijian."
Xu Ping asked him to give up the gift and ordered his followers to come with tea, and asked Sun Mian to sit at the stone table.
After the guest and host took their seats, Sun Mian said again: "It's rainy on the road and the road is muddy, so let's wait for a long time."
Xu Ping said: "It's going to rain, who can do it? There's nothing wrong with me, and I'll have to wait for a few days."
Sun Mian was a Jinshi in Tianxi for the third year. He has been in office for fifteen years. Now Luoyang is the magistrate of the Xijing Left-behind Sect. Now the two magistrates in Luoyang are one of the magistrates of Henan Prefecture, and the other is Sun Mian, the magistrate of the Xijing Left-behind Sect. They have different responsibilities. Relatively speaking, the magistrate of Henan Prefecture has to manage the civil affairs of a government and has busy affairs. The magistrate of the magistrate is responsible for everything. In fact, with the decline of the status of Luoyang, Xijing, there are not many things to manage, so Sun Mian was sent to try the case.
After saying some gossip, Sun Mian asked, "When I waited for the system, I heard from the magistrate Zhang on the way. Wang Yan, deputy envoy of the Ministry of Revenue, was overworked and was unwell. Now he was a little confused?"
Xu Ping smiled faintly: "What are you overworking? County Magistrate Zhang said it in a tactful way, and he didn't want to break Wang Yan's face. In fact, because Wang Yan was involved in a life lawsuit, everyone outside said that he ate two chickens and forced him to death. Many internal and external officials wrote letters to impeach him. After reading the dibao, he was angry and afraid, and his mind was not clear!"
Xu Ping can say this, but Sun Mian did not dare to agree. What is the difference in status and status?
After hearing Xu Ping's words, Sun Mian said, "When you follow the waiting system, should the officials come over to visit?"
"Of course I have to go! He is the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Revenue of the court and is involved in the case. How can you not see him? But judging from his current situation, I can't figure it out. After you have seen him, you'll still make up your own ideas."
Sun Mian bowed: "The official understands."
Xu Ping said: "Also, Deputy Envoy Wang cannot stay in Sishui County for a long time. Otherwise, if you have three or two shorts in your body, you will not be able to explain clearly. In the past two days, you can make a clue as soon as possible and let a considerable person write a letter and write a letter to the deputy envoy Wang return to Beijing. As long as you explain his matter clearly, you can slowly examine the case."
"The Xiaguan knows, go and do it as soon as possible."
What Xu Ping was most afraid of was that Wang Yan really had a few shortcomings, so he couldn't explain it clearly. He took him out of the capital well and had to take him back all the way. Then the matter after that had nothing to do with him.
As for Wang Yan's threatening to take Xu Ping and what happened in Heyin County, Xu Ping didn't care about it at all. He did everything he did was innocent and was not afraid that others would know it.
Wang Yan felt that he was having such a big unlucky thing when eating two chickens. Xu Ping had to eat two pigs in Heyin County, but he actually broke the case of gambling, which made him unable to turn his mind anyway.
But he didn't expect that Xu Ping would buy pigs to go for fair transactions, and even held the money in his hand, but he didn't rely on his tough buying. Otherwise, if he would have angered the butcher, his wife would have hung her, Xu Ping would be unable to explain clearly.
To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is not just luck, but it is to pay attention to every bit of it and keep alert at all times. Otherwise, officials from all over the place will be filled with stains everywhere they go. There is nothing when the wind is smooth, it is just a small mistake and will not cut off your future. But once you accumulate too much, it is hard to say.
Not to mention others, the judge Sun Tong, who was sitting next to Xu Ping at this time, is like this in history. No matter how much credit you make, you will be detrimental to your bad deeds wherever you go, and end up in a sad ending.
However, at this time, Sun Mian had not yet made a fortune. For the sake of his future, he had to do things honestly. The magistrate of the Xijing Left-behind Department was not as good as the magistrate. He had to have a resume as a magistrate of the state. After he was appointed as a magistrate of the state, he could become a magistrate of the state in a large state, or serve as a magistrate of the sentence and transfer commander. Naturally, he was cautious and dared not make mistakes.
Sun Mian and Zhang Dayou went to visit Wang Yan, but Xu Ping did not follow him. He was upset when he saw Wang Yan now, and Wang Yan was the same when he saw him. He was angry and anxious, and the condition might worsen.
