Chapter 254 Thunder (Part 2)
Update time: 2012-12-20
The rumbling sound of the car woke up every sleeping people. The lights lit up in every household and then quickly went out.
The city was a convoy of officials, with hundreds of people in a vast and powerful way. Ordinary people took a look and did not dare to meddle in other people's business. They were still comfortable in bed. They were curious and wanted to know, but by the morning of tomorrow, I believe that news would inevitably be circulating among the neighbors.
This county has always been like this.
Horses, torches, and carriages entered the county government office, in a dark alley, a beggar curled up on the ground, silently staring at everything.
I don’t know who was pretending to be the county magistrate instead of being very arrogant, but he acted bravely and violently. In the evening, he came to the county with the hospitality of local wealthy people. Then hundreds of people left in a daze. They knew that there was something important, but they didn’t know that they thought they were going to fight.
Compared to when we left, there were much fewer people coming back, and those who were missing were the rich gentry in the county, etc. After all, this was a funeral at Lord Guo’s family, so it was enough to leave the rest of the matter with the representatives. After a day of hard work, these men with rich clothes and food were already tired.
Thinking about the mountain trails stained with blood, these men wanted to vomit. The smell was bad at the scene and it made people dizzy, but due to the affection, they insisted on holding on, and now they are even more uncomfortable.
Those who can represent the people of this county must be the best in the county. Who else can be the Shangguan family?
Shangguanwei followed the convoy into the county government office, but the beggar recognized it. The beggar had long recognized the owner of the mansion without a plaque, and even learned all the information about the Shangguan family, and even sent the information about the Shangguan family out of the county town because the beggar was dressed by Liang Fa.
The news of Guo Ran's death is difficult to stop. The county must have had some shock. It is obviously inappropriate to stay in a hotel at this time. It is obviously impossible for the murderer to stay in a hotel after killing people heartlessly. The investigation of the guests from the office is an important part of investigating and investigating the murderer.
Liang Fa is a very high-level figure in Hu Leique, so he cannot reveal his identity. If someone is interested, it may be even more difficult to do so.
Half an hour later, the upper official took his servants out of the county government and headed for his mansion, but the county government frequently sent people to his hands.
"Well... it seems that the county is going to be in chaos..."
Even if it is a blind man, he can see that the official who replaced Guo Ran to attract everyone's attention is definitely not a kind man and a trustworthy woman. Such a big battle is obviously going to do a big fight. If this person is Guo Ran's family, he will definitely dig the ground three feet away. If he is a friend, he will definitely investigate it clearly.
What's more, brothers...
The reason why Shangguan Mansion has no plaque is very simple, and it is also one of the local stories. In the past, the Shangguan family was in business. At that time, although there was some wealth in their hands, it was not as large as it is now.
The county has a suitable climate and occupies a more territorial area. It is a large agricultural county in Sichuan with a strong output. Everyone is proud of farming and ashamed of business.
But the Shangguan family has been a businessman for generations, and among the increasingly powerful local farmers, it is difficult to walk. Many times I want to migrate, I can't bear to leave this foundation passed down from my ancestors, so I can only grit my teeth and stand firm.
It is easy to say that he was bullied, but he was bullied by people whose living standards were obviously inferior to his own, and his face was even more dull. Therefore, the Shangguan family once fought with local farmers through the family's financial resources, and there was a lot of friction, and even the plaque was smashed to pieces.
Now, time has proved that the Shangguan family is powerful, and the plaque is deliberately not replaced, expressing nostalgia for the past and commending one's persistence.
"Wei Shun is just a rude person, how could he put forward such conditions?"
In Shangguan Mansion, a middle-aged man in good health saw that Han Kan returned without success, not only wanted to give Wei Shun the property in the car, but was even threatened by Wei Shun, and he couldn't help but feel strange.
Han Kan's face looked extremely ugly. His narration just now caused dissatisfaction from his master. Now this man in a strong costume is attacking again, it is really a slaughter...
"This person has taken the lead in his actions, which makes me unable to start. Now I think I am despising him..."
Han Kan shook his head slightly. After dealing with Wei Shun for so many years, he didn't expect that this person was so cunning that he fell into a big fall without any precaution.
"Do you know who is in charge of the county government?" Shangguan Xiong, a man in a high-end and gorgeous dress, finally spoke, still with a gloomy face.
"Han Kan doesn't know, please tell me clearly."
Han Kan was very respectful to Shangguan Xiong. When the master mentioned this, he knew that it would be related to the future arrangements, so he focused his mind and waited for the master's instructions.
"That person is Guo Meng, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Justice. He is famous in the court and acts decisively and ruthlessly. You have seen what happened today, how do you feel?"
Shangguan Xiong remembered the feeling of seeing Guo Meng for the first time, and his disgust arises from the inside, and he is very unhappy.
"It turns out that he is a senior official of the Ministry of Justice. No wonder he is so arrogant. Seeing that he cut off the county lieutenant's arm with one sword and arranged people to control the power of the county, this person must not be underestimated!"
Han Kan thought about the county magistrate who had been cut off by Guo Meng on the mountain path. When he remembered Guo Meng's words to him, for some reason, a trace of coldness suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart.
The county magistrate is not a county magistrate, but is responsible for protecting the county and maintaining public security. Therefore, although the county magistrate has not been replaced, there is no county magistrate, and the county's government affairs cannot be operated.
Guo Meng is a ruthless person from the Ministry of Justice. Unexpectedly, he was the brother of the deceased Guo Ran. The troubles are getting bigger and bigger. Time is in a hurry and it is difficult to find out the other party’s background. Shangguan Xiong and others are thinking about it, but they can only hold on to their troops.
But if you have something to deal with, Wei Shun!
With Guo Meng's skills and decisive style, Wei Shun will definitely not be able to hide in the ground of this county for long. Moreover, the two sides have an agreement tomorrow that if Wei Shun is not allowed to become his confidant, it is hard to say what Wei Shun will do.
"Before the end of the matter, you are not allowed to leave the mansion. I will arrange personnel to contact Wei Shun, so please step back!"
Shangguan Xiong pondered for a long time, knowing that it is impossible to do everything without taking any risks at the moment. He knew that it was difficult, but he could only take risks.
"As for order!" Han Kan drooped his head and slowly retreated from the hall.
"Brother, the current news is tight. How can Wei Shun enter the city? This move is too dangerous!" The middle-aged man in costume is Shangguan Xiong's younger brother Shangguan Wu. When Han Kan left, he persuaded him.
Shangguan Xiong looked at Shangguan Wu angrily and said, "What can we do if we don't do this? Then Wei Shun is determined to be able to solve it. This is the only way to do it."
"So... what does your brother mean?" Shangguan Wu was not as understanding as Han Kan, but he could also hear that his brother had other arrangements.
Shangguan Xiong slowly stood up, rubbed his hands and said, "Since I entered the door of my Shangguan family, how can I let Xiaotianlang be alone? I agree to the reckless man's request, so that I can catch all in one go! Hahahahaha!"
Seeing that his brother was confident, Shangguan Wufang felt relieved and thought for a while and said, "Then Guo Meng is not a local county magistrate. He acted so ruthlessly. Should he notify the adult to help him?"
Even though Guo Meng was a member of the Ministry of Justice, he still had the final say in the local area. Since the county magistrate was not there, Guo Meng deposed the county magistrate and then took control of the power of the county. At present, Guo Meng's trouble was second only to Wei Shun. Shangguan Wu turned his eyes and began to attack Guo Meng's attention.
Shangguan Xiong smiled and said, "This person has been an official for many years, so how can he not know the rules? He is so eager to take revenge and his methods are really cruel, but it is enough to go to Chengdu for three or four days. As long as we take Wei Shun into the mansion, we can rest assured."
With a happy face, Shangguan Wu followed his brother's wishes: "When the appointment of Chengdu is issued, Guo Meng will not be able to act here, and he will even be taken back to Chengdu for trial for his crime..."
"Yes, Guo Meng acts inconsistent with the rules and is very troublesome. If you change the candidates, everything will be done according to the procedures. What are you and my brothers afraid of? Then, we will be the ones who are Wei Shun and his group, and they can't find any clues if they dig three feet into the ground!"
Speaking of this, the Shangguan brothers looked at each other and laughed happily.
In the county government, Guo Ran's body was put into a coffin. His brother Guo Meng led the crowd to worship and said, "Don't worry, even if you don't want this official position, you will swear to find the murderer for you and avenge your revenge!"
