The first thousand five hundred and ninety-six chapters

The yamen servant was about to push Guo Binchang again with his hand. He paused for a moment, pulled it back in a sly manner, and softened his tone, saying: "Don't embarrass me. He's just a listener. As for you, it's best."

Move out of the Yamen honestly, the knife handle of the Tiger Flag doesn't care whether you are the county magistrate of the imperial court or not."

"The Ming Dynasty was ruined by you villains." Guo Binchang snorted coldly.

The yamen servant did not argue with him, but just said: "The matter of Jiangshan is too big. I don't understand it, and I can't get involved. I know that if you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude."

"It's so shameless to ask for glory on your back." Guo Binchang scolded the Yamen servant in front of him. He was worried that the Yamen servant in front of him would really take action, so he simply waved his sleeves and left the Houyamen.

It had already darkened, but the yamen was brightly lit, and lanterns were hung all along the corridor.

"Where are you going, Magistrate Guo?" The Yamen servant stopped Guo Binchang who was about to go to the backyard and said immediately, "The carriage is ready, just outside the Yamen."

Guo Binchang said with dissatisfaction: "I go back to get my things, and you want to stop me?"

"Afraid of trouble, I have moved all my things to the carriage, got on the carriage, and left directly." The yamen servant said calmly.

Guo Binchang snorted, turned around and walked out of the Yamen.

There were not many people left in the yamen, and when they walked to the stone lion outside the yamen, they saw a few servants coming to greet them.

Guo Binchang got into the carriage with the help of his servants.

When he lifted the curtain, he saw that the carriage was filled with wooden boxes and bamboo boxes and could not accommodate one more person. Guo Binchang had to step back and said to the government servant next to the carriage: "Why is there only one carriage? Go and prepare a big one."

The car is coming."

"The staff in the yamen is tight, and there are not enough animals. These are the animals and carts that were squeezed out with great difficulty. You can make do with them. It's not far anyway. We will be there in a while." The yamen servant refused Guo Binchang's request for another carriage.

Require.

Guo Binchang also saw that the government officials below did not care about him as the county magistrate. If he continued to argue, he would lose him as the county magistrate.

Thinking of this, he retreated into the car and told the driver: "Let's go!"

The driver drove the carriage slowly forward.

Several servants who came to Lingqiu with Guo Binchang to take office were also with the carriage. In addition to these people, there was also the government servant.

The reason why this government official wanted to follow him was just to see with his own eyes that Guo Binchang had arrived so that he could feel relieved.

The Yamen is located on the main street of Lingqiu City. There are several less important streets in the city connected to this main street, and the courtyard assigned to Guo Binchang is on one of the streets connected to the main street.

The small courtyard is not close to Taiyuan from the Yamen, and the carriage quickly arrived at the place.

The driver pulled the reins and stopped the carriage, and then said to Guo Binchang in the car: "Sir, we are here."

Guo Binchang turned his head and glanced at the courtyard gate where the carriage was parked.

The door is not big and looks very new. The walls on both sides are taller than one person. It looks like the residence of a wealthy family.

This made him feel better. At least Huziqi did not mistreat him. Even if he was kicked out of the county government, he was given a courtyard of a wealthy family for him to live in.

"This used to be Li Dongzhu's house. Because he colluded with Zheng Shoubei and the Tiger Banner as an enemy, the Tiger Banner army ransacked his home when they came." The Yamen servant introduced the origin of the yard to Guo Binchang.

Guo Binchang raised his head and glanced at the door plaque above, and it was indeed written with the two characters "Li Zhai".

The Li family used to be one of the largest families in Lingqiu. Even if their house was not as good as the county government, it was not much different.

"County Magistrate Guo, don't be stunned, go in!" the Yamen servant urged.

Guo Binchang was helped out of the carriage by his servants and walked towards the door of Li's house in front of him.

A servant ran up the stone steps first and pushed open the wooden door in front.

Guo Binchang, who was walking under the door, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the Yamen servant who was following him, and said, "What did you do with Master Jia before?"

The yamen servant did not answer the question.

"Even if you don't tell me, I will know it soon," Guo Binchang said.

The officer hesitated for a moment, then said: "Master Jia was summoned to the garrison mansion by the new county magistrate."

"Haha, wow, they are really a bunch of villains. Seeing that my officer was in trouble, they all went their separate ways." Guo Binchang laughed sadly and walked into the yard with his head raised.

Several servants carried the things they had taken from the carriage and gave chase.

"Bah, if you don't have the ability, don't blame others for defecting to the Ming Dynasty." The Yamen servant spat on the stone steps of Li's house, then left the door of Li's house and rushed to the garrison to ask for credit.

The garrison mansion did not light too many lanterns, but there were several torches in the courtyard, lighting up the entire courtyard.

Master Jia stood respectfully in the back office of the garrison mansion.

This was not his first time coming to the garrison, but he had never been so respectful.

"Master Jia, stop standing, sit down!" Huang Shi'an raised his finger and pointed to the empty seat beside him.

Master Jia said respectfully: "In the presence of the county magistrate, there are no seats for students. Students can just stand."

"Forget it, if you don't want to sit down, I won't force you, just stand!" Seeing Master Jia's cautious look, Huang Shi'an stopped trying to persuade him.

"Thank you for your consideration, Mr. Jia." Mr. Jia bowed his hand in a flattering manner.

Huang Shian smiled and said, "Do you know why I sent someone to find you?"

"Since the county magistrate asked, let the student make a bold guess." Mr. Jia secretly glanced at Huang Shi'an in his seat, and then said, "The county magistrate wants the student to stay in the Yamen and continue to work as an official."

"Haha, you're not confused." Huang Shi'an laughed with his beard in his hands.

Master Jia laughed a few times beside him.

"How about it? Are you willing to stay and work for the Tiger Flag?" Huang Shi'an put away the smile on his face and asked solemnly.

Master Jia hurriedly saluted and said at the same time: "The student is very willing."

"Okay, tomorrow you go to the Yamen and continue to be your master. If you do a good job, you may not be able to become an official. I, Tiger Character Flag, don't have so many things to pay attention to. As long as someone has the ability and is willing to do things for Tiger Character Flag, he will be able to do it in the future.

Become an official." Huang Shian promised.

Master Jia's face became a little more joyful as he said, "Student, I would like to thank the county magistrate in advance."

As for whether he is willing to be an official of the Tiger Flag, I am afraid only he himself knows.

"I am going to redistribute all the land in Lingqiu so that the tenants can have their own land. You have been a master in Lingqiu for many years. What do you think should be done?" Huang Shi'an asked straight to the point.

Master Jia's expression finally changed after hearing this.

When others rebelled, they tried every means to gain more land for themselves, but they never expected that the Tiger Flag would want to divide the land.
