Chapter 234 There is Sima Guang in Nanhua
Sima Guang was thinking about what was on his mind and unconsciously lost his mind. His eyes were bright, as if he had seen the future of the Song Dynasty. What will it look like in the future? Sima Guang describes his own mountains and rivers in his heart.
When Zhao Ze led his army into the north gate of Nanhua County, he found that there was no one there. He felt very strange. According to reason, he should have been found a long time ago. The gate was closed, the suspension bridge was high, and the local military and political officials stood on the top of the city and shouted at him. He never thought it was the opposite.
This abnormal situation only exists in Zhao Ze's memory during war, just like Zhuge Liang's empty city plan.
For the sake of safety, Zhao Zeling Chaofang led a hundred knife platooners to explore the road and trotted into the city. After a sting of incense, Chao Fang came back. Only then did he understand that it turned out that the wind and snow was too big outside, and many people were hiding. Only when he entered the city could he see a few pedestrians scattered on the street.
" No wonder"
Now that his doubts were relieved, Zhao Ze didn't have to worry. He quickly led the remaining 500 people into the city one after another and went to the county government.
The heavy footsteps sounded, waking up the two gatekeepers sleeping behind the city gate. The old officials yawned, slowly got up, and looked out. Suddenly, they were stunned. The recruits didn't know why, and pulled an old official, "It's so cold outside, and the wind is so strong. What are you looking at? Can you see the girl of the workshop?"
The old official did not answer, but turned back in horror and looked desperately. The new soldier thought that the old official was playing with him. He put his head on the old official's stomach and laughed and scolded, "You old man, you actually flirted with your little brother."
The old official changed his face, grabbed the back neck of the new soldier, and cursed in a low voice: "Fant, shut up, the thief has entered the city."
"Ah?" The recruit thought that the old official was scaring him and said, "Sir, don't make fun of me. If the thief entered the city, you would have run away early. How can you accompany the little one to die here?"
"Ah, ah, bad luck, I have to die this time." The old official felt that he should not have slept behind the gate. Now it's good to lead the wolf into the room.
"Dead, the little one hasn't lived enough, and the daughter-in-law hasn't married yet. If you want to die, you can die by yourself." The recruit is still talking crazy.
"I said, did you mean to annoy me?"
The old official stepped on the recruit's head fiercely, then raised his foot and kicked the recruit out.
The recruit fell out from behind the gate and hit Zhao Ze's army, which alarmed the people in the march. They quickly stepped forward and surrounded the recruits in the middle. They raised the gun handle, and the recruits fell into the snow with a scream...
Xingren Mansion, Nanhua County.
From a distance, I saw a group of troops coming towards the county government office. The government official guarding the door was shocked. After rushing out of the house, he stumbled and ran to the back house. On the way, he fell down several times and limped and walked while shouting, "It's not good. Something's wrong, something's wrong..."
The shouts of the yamen shocked the people in the county government, as well as Sima Guang, who was taking a nap.
When the door opened, the government official wrapped in wind and snow rushed in.
With a bang, Sima Guang was shocked. He quickly put on his cotton shoes and walked to the hall.
Seeing that the ward guarding the door covered his knees in pain, he thought he was seriously injured. He walked a few steps to help the man up and asked, "What's the matter shouting and what kind of style?"
"When I went back, I was just resting in the porter's house. Suddenly, I saw many people rushing towards the county government, and the people on the street were scared to death."
"What, make it clear. Where did so many people come from? Why didn't the official guarding the city issue a warning?
"Go back, go back to the adult, the little one is not clear. You'd better go and have a look."
"Cough, what a group of rice buckets"
Sima Guangqi's seven orifices were unprepared because of the unknown situation. He didn't care about putting on a hood or a cloak. He opened the door and ran out.
Along the way, I saw several pen-writing masters and a number of small officials. Everyone was also confused. Seeing Sima Guang coming, they gathered around and asked, "Your Excellency, what's the matter?"
Sima Guang told them as he walked: "The doorkeeper found many unidentified people rushing to the county government office. I'm going out now to have a look."
"Ah!" Everyone was shocked.
Some timid and afraid of things hugged Sima Guang's leg and stopped him: "Your excellency is not allowed. In case the mob wants to rush into the county government in the snowy weather, your life is in danger. It's not a pity for us to die. You can't have an accident."
"Well, don't stop me. Let go. This county must go out and have a look. What a mob. I am not afraid of them if I am dedicated to the country."
"Your excellency, you can't do it"
Once someone starts, there will be someone behind you. Who is not afraid of death? Even if Sima Guang is really full of righteousness and is not afraid of death, those old officials in the county government, old deep-fried dough sticks do not want to die so confusedly, so they quickly urged the servants to close the door and gather the people they can find to guard the county government.
In fact, the old officials of the county government also take one step at a time. If the thief shows weakness, they will take the opportunity to rush out. If the thief shows strength, they can only slow down, and they have to surrender at the worst. If they die, they haven't considered it.
"You? What are you doing?" Sima Guang was pulled by several small officials and couldn't move, and he didn't scold like a rough man. Even at this time, it was useless to oppress them with official pressure, because the gate of the county government office had been closed, and everyone gathered in the courtyard to wait for the arrival of the group of people outside.
In the wind and snow, someone knocked on the door of the county government, and everyone in the courtyard heard it, but no one dared to say anything.
"Come on, open the door." Sima Guang ordered the porter to open the door.
Several officials in charge quickly came forward to dissuade him: "Your Excellency, no, if the person who comes is a mob, as soon as the door is opened, we will die. It's better to inquire behind the door and make plans."
After all, Sima Guang is still the heart of a young man. He just wanted to find a mob theory. He was convinced that evil could not be righteous, and did not consider the seriousness of the situation. It was not until everyone persuaded him that he slowly calmed down, saying that it had to be like this.
The street in front of the county government is full of people, and the heavy gasp broke the tranquility around.
Zhao Ze came forward and knocked on the door again, sounding like a drum, which made the people inside tremble.
"Is there anyone in it? I, Zhao Ze, want to see the lord of Nanhua County!"
Zhao Ze's voice was like a bell. The people in the courtyard had heard it for a long time, but they didn't believe it, so they had to ask Sima Guang to make a decision.
This time, Sima Guang had a few more intentions. As soon as Zhao Ze's words fell, he shouted, "I am Sima Guang, the county magistrate of South China. Who are you? Why did you break into the county? Do you want to rebel?"
