Juvenile county officials in ancient ghost stories

"Xue Jing, are you ready? Antong and others are coming to pick you up. " Mother closed the door and urged. There was a man who was admitted to Jinshi in his teens, when he was just eighteen. As soon as the gold medal was announced, it was awarded to the eldest daughter and asked, "What's going on?" The youngest daughter said nervously, "Dad knocked at the door last night and said he didn't feel comfortable coming to see me. At that time, I was in a fog, so I let him go! It's dark. Where the hell did he go? " Say that finish, the little daughter cried. He works for a county.

Although it is said that the imperial court is interested in seeking talents, it is not a good task. His father was very worried about him and asked his son to take him with him.

When he was appointed, the paperwork was handled by the county butcher's father himself. The county butcher just sat in the hall and made a show.

In his spare time, my father taught the magistrate the truth of governing the people by officials and stated the disadvantages of national politics. My father is also an old Confucian scholar and is good at these things. He has a point.

The county magistrate is very clever. After his father's guidance, he gradually learned the method of governing the country. After a year in power, he became very political. Officials below Zhong Cheng dare not think that the county magistrate is young and look down upon him.

One day, when I was out of town on business, I happened to meet a dead man from a big family who was carrying him for burial. About hundreds of people attended the funeral, and the colorful flags fluttered and the gongs and drums were loud all the way, which was very huge and grand.

According to local customs, even officials should be allowed to pass by the roadside when they encounter major events such as weddings, funerals and weddings.

The county magistrate heard the road and waited for the funeral procession to pass first.

When the coffin passed by, it was followed by the filial family's car. I heard crying in the car. It sounded like a woman crying.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew and the curtains around the car floated. The woman was sitting in the car and was seen by people outside.

The magistrate looked at the woman. Besides mourning, she also wore red clothes, which made the color more vivid.

The county magistrate was puzzled and surprised, so he asked the police officer who was crying in the car, but it was still the wife of the deceased.

County slaughter more suspicious, know that there must be different, called the officers, stopped the coffin, let them park the coffin in a temple, waiting for inspection, also didn't say why to examine the dead.

More than half of the dead were local tycoons, a little less than civilians. They were all surprised by the magistrate's order and immediately came to see the magistrate and begged him to let the dead be buried. No matter what they said, the county magistrate refused, only solemnly said, "gentlemen and the deceased seem to be relatives, can't they let him die?" If you don't listen to me, I'd rather go home and swear not to come here as a county butcher. "

For the time being, everyone only listened to him, but they all talked privately: "When we didn't sign it, we would be sarcastic and see what face this smelly little county official has."

County slaughter has left the coffin and immediately went back to tell his father.

Father cocked his head and thought for a while, then said, "I'm glad you can observe such a subtle thing." But they are the home of giant gentry, not ordinary people. This is a joke. If no scars can be detected, it will be difficult to clean up. It is necessary to find out the cause of the matter and obtain conclusive evidence. Then I realized that the county magistrate was biased and thought he could do it well, so he didn't want to bother his father. He said, "Don't bother my father about it. I think I can find out the truth. " "

My father smiled and said, "Although I was not appointed by the imperial court, I was an official. However, contributing to the people is also a promotion to the country, not a family matter. What are you stopping me from doing? "

So, my father dressed up to see him. The private meeting on the balcony is both nerve-racking and joyful. He held me in his arms, wide and comfortable. The clear spring seeps into my heart, and I am no longer fidgety and anxious, and I am no longer fidgeting. I closed my eyes with satisfaction. It happened so suddenly that we met for the first time. The word "love" is meaningless. I met a fortune teller and told the county magistrate his brilliant plan, and warned him, "This matter involves boudoir. Don't bring disaster because of that smiling clue. We must investigate it clearly." "

The magistrate understood his father's intention and accepted his words respectfully.

Father left the office quietly.

The next day, the county magistrate pretended that he was very ill and it was not convenient to go out to deal with business.

You are very happy when you hear this. They think that when it comes to Xiaomei, everyone is very impressed with her. She used to be an active participant in the ghost story beside the bed, giving everyone the impression of a carefree girl who loves to talk and laugh, but I don't know why. In the morning, everyone found that she had cut the vein of her wrist with a knife and the bedding was dyed red with blood. The county slaughter was a joke to stop the funeral, but now I regret it, so I hide in the yamen and don't go out. It's really a trick that children should not do.

So, everyone intended to make a fool of him, so * * * urged him to go out for inspection.

County slaughter also pretended not to ask.

A few days later, he wrote to urge again, and the county slaughter was even more indifferent.

The coffin was parked there and could not be buried, and the pit was dug there and could not be buried. Everyone was indignant. Even the officials in the official office and the civilians in the alley blame the county slaughter. Said he played a kid's trick to stop people's funerals.

When the satrap knew about it, he couldn't bear to investigate it severely, so he wrote a letter asking the county magistrate to apologize to all the squires. What puzzles her is that there are no students in the locker room today. Calm down.

County slaughter still doesn't think he is wrong, but only tells him that human life is important. When he is buried, he might as well do something. He is willing to take ten as the time limit and go out for inspection immediately when he is well. If he can't find out the cause of death of the deceased, he is willing to accept punishment.

Language is honest and heroic, and the satrap understands his thoughts. However, he is always worried about him, afraid that he can't give the squires an explanation.

County slaughter's father walked for a few days, no one said that the deceased died unjustly, and his heart was also uneasy.

One night, a person went to the suburbs to visit information, and there was no place to live, so he went to the grass house in Tanaka to rest.

After a while, someone asked, my father stood up, saluted the man, and lied that he was floating from other places and lived by divination. It was dark and he couldn't move forward, so he settled there.

The man believed him and generously asked him to stay. I was just worried that the place was too narrow for two people to sleep, and the man was invited by the landowner to guard the field, so he didn't dare to sleep, so he sat and talked with the father of the county slaughter and sent away the long night.

Now the net's father came out to inquire about people, and maybe he can get useful information. He slowly poked his head and said, "The seedlings in the field look like that person this year and suddenly sighed." Don't talk about it, it makes me sad. In recent years, the local area has been abused by fierce officials every year. Although the county magistrate is young now, he can sympathize with people like us and live a good life. I went to the city yesterday and heard that he would leave soon. I'm afraid future generations can't continue his style of being close to the people! "

My father was very happy and asked him specially.

The man said, "I hear that your accent is a bit like it is now, so I dare not tell you."

My father pretended not to know and said, "One is a senior official of the imperial court, and the other is a lowly civilian. How can you talk about fellow villagers? " ? I want to visit him, isn't it better than going to heaven? How can the county magistrate hear me when I say it "

The gifted scholar said, "We are all savages. Let's talk about it. One of my former students, that is, my tenant, is very strong. When I heard that he died suddenly, I felt very confused. I went to the funeral and asked about the cause of his death. None of my family knows about it. Only one child knew this clearly and told me the story in private. It turns out that the former student's wife has been having an affair with her cousin. His cousin has just died, and the wife wants to kill her husband so that she can marry her cousin. Good things are done. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate became suspicious about this matter, leaving the body waiting for inspection and not letting it be buried immediately. People at home, looking at his family's property, are embarrassed to be with the county magistrate. It was really heard by the officials above. Can't this be exempted from the official? "

My father was very happy and sighed deliberately: "What ordinary people! What a blessing! It' s just that the actions of the county slaughter are inevitably too rash. "

The man said loudly, "This is where you are wrong." In my opinion, the county magistrate should make a decisive decision and there should be no doubt. If he is so hesitant, he will be timid. If you are a little more reckless and decisively break the coffin, just go to him and check, and everything will be understood. "

Father deliberately asked, "Oh, what do you mean?"

The man lowered his voice and told his father in detail. His father didn't clap his hands, which made him feel ridiculous, so he stopped asking.

At dawn, he left the man who told him not to tell.

Father, uh-huh, repeatedly promised to return to the official directly. This may be because he drank too much water. After lying down for a while, Aunt Wang got up and went out to go to the toilet. When she walked back conveniently, she suddenly heard loud footsteps outside the gate, as if someone was walking around the door. Yes

At that time, the county magistrate was braving the moon and stars frost to visit for his father. The case was fruitless and bored.

As soon as his father came in, he smiled and said to him, "What are you worried about when you are waiting to be a big official?" I told him all the news I found.

The county magistrate got his father's advice, and the next day, he immediately went to the guild hall to handle affairs. It was not until nearly noon that a delicate servant was called to check it and said, "If I tell you to look, you should look at it at once, and be careful not to make any mistakes." The officers immediately agreed.

When they got there, the nobles were all there. The magistrate smiled and said, "I work for your family. On the contrary, marching at night is not uncommon. What's more, when there is an urgent notice order, one or two people will be sent to complete the task. My grandfather was also very lucky to win the honor. Treat me like an enemy. Isn't it because of those possessions that they didn't divide immediately? "

Everyone understood the implied meaning of the words of the county slaughter. The story is very clear, and they all change their faces unconsciously.

After the magistrate sat down, he asked someone to open the coffin.

The body is also related to this thing. It belongs to a village hundreds of kilometers away from my hometown. Rotten and inaccessible. When people in the clan saw the dead, many people shed tears, and the resentment against the county slaughter can be imagined.

The county magistrate did not comfort them, but only asked the officers to come up and check according to the agreed method. When the check came down, the county magistrate immediately pointed and said, "Look!"

The officer understood what he meant. He opened the trousers of the deceased with his hand and saw a five-inch-long silver needle, with blood still red, hidden among the deceased.

The crowd began to make a loud noise. They all fell to their knees and thanked the county magistrate. The next of kin of the deceased screamed again, calling out that when I was sleeping soundly, suddenly a body pressed on me and woke me up in my sleep. Shout grievances and ask the county to punish them severely.

"Why did you change from arrogance to respect?" The county magistrate asked. Fortunately, there is no suspense, and I also tracked down the murderer. "

He asked if anyone had come, and someone replied that he had come. Sure enough, he was the woman's cousin among all the people. Seeing his white face, everyone understood.

The county magistrate immediately ordered the officers to catch him, get up and leave the temple immediately, and told everyone to wait for the detailed autopsy results.

When I returned to the office, I immediately ordered the arrest of the child and the wife of the deceased.

As for me, I didn't have a good relationship with my father at that time because he always liked to hit me. Of course, there's nothing wrong with him hitting me, but I'm beaten badly by others and unable to fight back, so I like to play practical jokes on him. In the evening, I brought them all, and the county magistrate tried them in court.

First of all, I plan to torture this child. The child was afraid and told the truth.

It turns out that this child is someone's confidant. Zhang Ling was peeking outside and was found by that woman. She was bored and wanted to slip away, but she turned around and found that the woman had arrived. She grabbed Zhang Ling's hand and said, "As far as age is concerned, you are my younger brother. Since you have come to see my sister, you must come in and sit down for a while. " He said, pulling Zhang Ling into the room. When he entered the room, he felt a strange smell pouncing on Shinohara. He couldn't help regretting that he hadn't listened to the janitor just now. He might as well deal with sleeping at night in the department. Nose, refreshing. The woman took Zhang Ling's hand, and the lotus dance steps were light and varied. After helping Zhang Ling sit down, she seemed to say reproachfully, "Sister has been waiting for you here for several days. Why did you come tonight? " He specially recommended to the deceased to act on his own, and the woman and the child were accomplices.

One day, the deceased came back from drinking outside, as drunk as a fiddler. The child helped him into the house, and the woman told him to tie up her husband with a belt. Then she pulled down the victim's trousers and immediately plunged the needle into the victim's heart, deeply. The deceased was drunk and couldn't resist. He died with a loud cry.

Children and women slowly untied their belts and helped the dead to the floor. It was said to outsiders that the deceased died suddenly and violently, and people did not expect that there was injustice in it.

The children confessed one by one, and the women had nothing to say, and they all confessed.

Now I smile confidently and ask someone to take off that woman's coarse mourning clothes and wear red clothes.

The gentry was in class at that time, and they were very angry when they saw this. The original idea of dividing the family property has long been occupied by immediate anger.

The county magistrate asked the woman again. It turned out that since her husband died, she had a deep sense of foreboding in her heart. She always wears this red dress secretly. She doesn't know what her intention is. Doesn't God have eyes?

County slaughter was furious, and immediately ordered people to torture her, beat her with a stick for a while, and then locked her up with her cousin and children, and then wrote a detailed case document and reported it to the superior. Hearing this, the superior officials felt that the county magistrate was very talented and was ready to commend him.

The county magistrate sighed, "Working hard as an official has exhausted my father. I am not a son yet!" "

He resigned and went home on the grounds that he wanted to support his father.
