Chapter 27 The twenty-fifth round of officials handling cases vigorously and swiftly, courtiers praised and criticized others

Li Hao, a cadre, judged the case without favoritism, acted vigorously and was loved by the people under his rule.At this time, there were rumors in the capital that the Meng family in northern Xinjiang had a different intention, which aroused the suspicion of the first emperor; the court report was distributed to various borders, and Meng Tian was suspected by all parties.Although Li Hao has a decent style and strict self-discipline, in the face of an infatuated woman... Meng Tian holds a special wedding ceremony for Li Hao, a relegated literati, and Naren Molan, a Hu girl. On the third day after taking Chimu, Beihe County issued a notice that the new county magistrate would focus on handling the case. As soon as the big news came out, the whole Nalinnao was in a state of flux.Those who have grievances hold hope even more, and gather in the county government early, waiting for promotion.There is an endless stream of people who come to watch the excitement, and its momentum is unprecedented.In order to punish everyone and be fair and honest, Li Hao ordered the court to be set up at the intersection of Yamen Street, so that the public can watch the case.

Under the cowhide canopy, Li Hao was sitting high-end. The golden sculpture on the desk was dazzling in the sun, and the onlookers felt that the golden sculpture was outstanding.The geese lined up, and the soap officials held water and fire sticks and waited solemnly. "Bring the criminal Chimu to the court!" Because it was not in the county government hall, the order was still sent far away in the form of three-level and nine-level delivery.After a while, Chi Mu, wearing a heavy shackle, was escorted to the Yamen at the intersection of the street. He was already haggard, pale, half-stupid, half-stupid, and he didn't have the previous air and domineering. He knelt obediently in front of the Yamen and waited.The people opened their eyes wide and half closed their mouths, unable to believe the facts in front of them.Is this Chimu who can be called a prince?Is this the Chimu who occupies the grassland, dominates the farmland, and bullies the women of the people?Who would believe that he also has today.There was a lot of discussion.

Li Hao shouted again: "Witness witnesses!" Hundreds of people flocked, among them were Naren Molan and her father Mutu, all of whom had a close relationship with Chimu.Seeing that the witnesses are all present, Li Hao pronounced the sentence in court: the villain is listening to the sentence, and now the government has found out that Chimu occupied the grassland, fertile land, beautiful houses, livestock, and committed many crimes such as human trafficking, disregarding human life, causing the victim His family was broken and his family was destroyed, and he left his hometown.Today, the laws of the country cannot be tolerated, and the grievances of the people are hard to suppress. Only by bringing the criminal Akagi to justice can the laws of our country and the grievances of the common people be affirmed.The grassland, fertile land, beautiful houses, population, livestock, etc. occupied by Chimu were all returned to the family, and the people were outraged!Push it down and make a decision.

The crowd cheered and cheered.The onlookers couldn't help but applaud, and finally brought this mighty stalwart to justice.The hundred or ten victims all knelt down to the new county magistrate Li Hao, thanking him for his great kindness.Li Hao left his seat and helped the old people in front of him: "Everyone, don't do this, don't do this. I am a commoner, and now I am entrusted by the court, and it is my duty. How can I thank you!" When he saw Na Ren Molan, Mo Lan kowtowed heavily to him, in addition to gratitude, there was also a sense of admiration in her eyes, which made Li Hao at a loss, and said repeatedly: "Get up, get up quickly, my official!" The trial must continue!"

Only then did everyone get up and retreat to the side.Followed by a young woman crying and appealing her grievances: She was originally a servant girl of a small landlord, but the small landlord had many wives and concubines but failed to give birth to a son, which became a heart disease for others in middle age.One day when he was drunk, the small landlord Liu Qi, on a whim, forced him to have a good relationship with this woman, claiming that if he could bear a son for him, his value would soar and he would become his wife.This woman cried a lot, but she had no choice but to take his words seriously and pin her hopes on her very competitive stomach.She knew clearly in her heart that if she gave birth to a woman, she would definitely be kicked out.But after the woman became pregnant, it aroused the jealousy and rejection of other wives and concubines, and forced the little landlord to drive the pregnant girl out of the house.At that time, the little landlord also regretted his behavior with this girl after drinking.After the girl was kicked out of the mansion, no one took her in, so she randomly found a broken kiln to live in. She was deeply saddened by her tragic ending, but there was nothing she could do.I wanted to find a way to die, but the fetus in my womb was getting bigger and bigger day by day, pulling the compassionate heart of a first-time mother, so I made up my mind to give birth to the child no matter how hard or tired I was, and went digging wild vegetables with a big belly , chat to get by.In the early winter, there was a sudden sound of crying babies in the cold kiln, which alarmed the neighbors of the whole town.She gave birth to a boy, and this woman is determined to live on strong, and bring up her son so that in the future, the mother will be more expensive than her son.

Of course, this matter cannot be hidden from the little landlord. He regretted it and sighed all day long, hating his original decision.Naturally, at home, he would not show good looks to his wives and concubines.Therefore, the wives and concubines made another plan to let the little landlord take his son back.Of course the little landlord wanted a son, but he couldn't bear to take it away. He first discussed with the woman and planned to give her a pension.Unexpectedly, the woman was very assertive, and she refused straight away: "Even if you take the whole family property, I will not exchange it!" This remark angered the little landlord, who happened to be a famous teacher, so the little landlord was furious, Without any explanation, he took away his son.

Things in the world are like this, not afraid of reasonable gentlemen, only afraid of unreasonable villains.The woman was so sad that she wanted to die, but a neighbor who sympathized with her persuaded her to sue the government.It's easier said than done, when I ran into Liang Shijiu, a foolish official, the more I complained, the more I felt wronged, and later I thought the woman was annoying, so I simply sent someone to drive her away. Li Hao considered this matter carefully, and then looked at the young woman in front of him, she was really beautiful, but she was wearing men's clothes, her face was haggard and sad, she was crying helpless.Thinking that she pinned her life's hope on her son, but now his son was taken away alive, how could she not feel sad and sad?Li Hao looked at the past sentences again, all of them were based on the reason of the lonely girl, and the small landlord was sentenced to pay the money to settle the matter.However, this woman doesn't care about money, she just wants to get her son back.Li Hao believes that this wind must not grow, otherwise many women will be left alone and no one will show mercy.Moreover, people have no family relationship, mother and child are separated, the morality of the world is degraded, and human affection and righteousness do not exist. How can this great and peaceful world survive?With the sound of the golden eagle's order, Li Hao shouted loudly: "Let the little landlord Liu Qi go to court!"

The little landlord Liu Qiyuan was not as tough as Chimu, so he got out of the carriage all the way, walked to the front of the hall tremblingly, and knelt down: "The little man Liu Qi salutes the lord." Li Hao wanted to test this person first, saying: "Liu Qi, can you Do you know the woman next to you?" "I recognize...ah, no, I don't. I have never seen this girl before." Liu Qi spoke incoherently, and his sophistry was so poor that it made people laugh.Li Hao was already very annoyed at this cunning little landlord.The woman next to her said anxiously: "You, you don't recognize me? But I know you, and I will recognize you even when it is burned to ashes! You give me back my son, give me back my son..." The woman rushed forward, grabbed Liu Qi and wouldn't let go. shouted hoarsely.

An official stepped forward to grab the woman, and Li Hao also advised her not to get excited, and continued to ask Liu Qi: "Liu Qi, do you know this woman? This is the last time I ask you, don't blame me." I didn't warn you!" "I know it, I know it, the villain knows it!" Liu Qi didn't dare to deny it when he heard this. "Is she your former maid?" "Yes Yes Yes……" "You can see clearly that she was occupied by you and became pregnant, and then you kicked her out of the house?" "Yes, yes..." Liu Qi sounded awkward, but he dared not admit it, for fear of saying the wrong thing again.

Li Hao continued to ask: "The son she gave birth was forcibly taken back to the mansion by you, is there such a thing?" "Yes, yes. Oh, no. The son is mine... my blood and blood!" "The son is your flesh and blood. How did it come out of her belly? Tell me!" This question is not difficult to answer, but Liu Qi doesn't know how to answer it. "Because...she...Master, the conscience of heaven and earth is indeed my son..." Li Hao's voice was stern: "Of course I know it well. It's your son. Why do you only have a son and no mother? Come on, let this insatiable, selfish, Self-interested, rich and unkind villains give me 40 boards of heavy responsibility."

"To order—" the soap officials pounded the ground with water and fire sticks, and stopped drinking in unison.The left and right water and fire sticks clamped Liu Qi, pushed him to the ground, and the soap official with a big board came up and beat him with a swing.Liu Qi shouted: "...My lord, please forgive me...I am really wronged. It's all, it's all good things done by those girls...Ah, ah..." The soap official was ordered, ping-ping-pong-pong was the forty big board The little landlord Liu Qi kept yelling and screaming. He had never been beaten like this since he was born. Li Hao felt amused in his heart: "Liu Qi, why did you suffer forty boards, do you understand?" "Aiyo! I don't know, I don't know! I know..." "Know what? Come and listen to me!" "Little one, the little one robbed my son..." "Whose son?" Li Hao asked this cunning guy contemptuously. "Mine is my son." "You bastard, you have already kicked people out of the house and treated them like nothing. It was you who first acted inhumanely and refused to accept his wife and son. How could it be your son? It is clear that you are ignorant and selfish. In her When you gave birth to your children, you still didn't want to repent, and you still let them live in a broken kiln in the mountains. When you robbed your sons, you didn't care about the bond between mother and child. People like you are vicious and reckless. It is not too much for the official to cut off your head, do you understand?" "Ah! My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life..." Liu Qi was already as limp as mud, and kept kowtowing. "Do you know what to do now?" Li Hao asked in a slow tone. "I will, take her home so that I can have a baby..." "It doesn't matter what you say, it depends on whether people are willing or not." Li Hao immediately asked: "Lady in the hall, are you willing?" The woman did not want to look at Liu Qi more contemptuously, and said: "Bah! It's not rare, I My son, I will raise him." The words were so blunt that Liu Qi looked at Li Hao anxiously and said, "My lord, look at her, she..." Li Hao pretended not to see him, and slapped the golden eagle Order, loudly shouted: "Everyone listen to the sentence!" Li Hao waved his hand and walked up to an old woman who was holding a child. The woman was eager to rush, but was stopped by the official, who just glanced at Li Hao as if asking for help, and called out. "Son..." Li Hao said patiently: "Oh! Don't be too busy. I asked you what your maiden name is called?" The woman was puzzled and asked, "My maiden name is Gan. I don't know why your lord is asking?" "Gan's sentence, erase your status as a maidservant, respect you as the county's first wife, and take care of your own children." When the woman heard this, she was extremely excited and kowtowed several times to Li Hao, then took the child handed over by the old mother, and wept uncontrollably.The onlookers knew what was going on, and a good man would be rewarded with good things. The praise was everywhere, and they praised the good officials excitedly.Li Hao looked at Liu Qi contemptuously again: "Liu Qi listened to the sentence and ordered you to allocate 50 acres of paddy and dry land to each of them, 20 cows, and 500 sheep, and to be responsible for their mother and child Xiuzhen in the allocated land. Mansion. From now on, you have nothing to do with their mother and child. Just wait until the son grows up and recognizes you as the father. He will naturally belong to the same family. If you don’t recognize it, it is also reasonable. No more pestering." That Liu Qi opened his mouth wide in shock and was speechless for a long time.But then I thought: Since their mother and son have not gone far away, they are the blood of my Liu family, and the future will be long. This may be the glimmer of life this adult gave me Liu Qi... Next, I heard Li Hao talk with eloquence: "When I first arrived in Beihe County, because the Chimu case was too involved, it was beyond my expectation and severely damaged the folk customs of Beihe County. It has reached a heinous level. Many people especially emulate Chimu is proud and shameless. Therefore, I have to take Chimu first, clean up local bad habits, and severely crack down on evil forces such as Chimu. From today onwards, those who occupy neighbors' land, livestock, houses, population, and children, Regardless of size, they are all returned to the family within ten days. Those who fail to return within the time limit will be punished on the spot, and this official will not tolerate it. From now on, people, regardless of high or low, will be protected by the national law. This official is determined to establish a moral village in Beihe County The regulations advocate filial piety and integrity, respect the old and love the young, curb the vulgar and bullying the weak; promote mutual love and trust among neighbors, and curb masters from bullying slaves and maidservants, and big households from bullying small households. Not long ago, Beihe County issued moral township regulations, and posted a list of all townships. You must earnestly understand it, and earnestly abide by it in order to...the next case!" In less than half a day, Li Hao completed the trial of all Liang Shijiu's backlog of cases, and no one refused to accept it, and no one was not grateful.Afterwards, Li Hao personally led people into the villages, disbanded the military camps, elected the prestige chiefs and elders of each township, and temporarily stationed a small number of officials to manage some necessary affairs.The Qin law was preached by the staff. So far, tens of thousands of farmers in the Chimu territory with a radius of hundreds of miles have bathed in the sunshine of the Great Qin for the first time.When the golden autumn harvest season comes, Lee Ho holds an autumn fair at the riverside in due course. Farmers from all walks of life gather at the autumn fair with joyous songs and laughter, and present various products produced by themselves on the market.Buyers and sellers compete fairly and benefit from each other.In addition, the herdsmen of Beihe and Nanhe bought them carefully, and absolutely did not bully or dominate the market.In the street market, people are bustling to and fro, greeting each other.All kinds of juggling, rap, lantern shadows, and martial arts are competing to stage wonderful repertoires to attract tourists to watch. Accompanied by his subordinates, Li Hao walked around the market with great interest.Suddenly, a beautiful woman in front of him made a deep bow to him, and said something thankful: "Benefactor, I am here to invite you to my house as a guest, please honor Mrs. Li!" Li Hao watched carefully , Seems familiar, but I'm not sure where I've seen it.Then he tentatively asked: "You are..." Unexpectedly, the girl said generously: "My lord, the little girl is Naren Molan who was rescued by you..." "Oh——" Li Hao suddenly realized, and couldn't help nodding: "It's been three days since I left you, and I've seen you with admiration. The girl is naturally beautiful, and I don't even dare to recognize this old man. How are your parents?" He was a little bit shy in his compliments, and motioned towards the street entrance and said, "That's not it, father and mother are here to invite you together..." Before they finished speaking, Mutu and his wife came up and bowed to Li Hao respectively: "Great kindness!" It’s hard to repay, benefactor, you must go to my Mutu’s house today. Otherwise, I will make the world laugh..." Li Hao supported the two of them, and said: "Beihe County is busy with affairs, and it is always impossible to escape. Cleaning up local officials is really like waiting for a lot of waste, and starting from scratch. I accept your wishes, and I will definitely visit you someday... Naren Molan stepped forward without any scruples and put her arms on Li Hao's, almost tying each other: "Master Li, I have been observing you for several days. If there is something important, I, Naren Molan, would not dare Make up whatever you want. You better go, or else my father and mother will be so disappointed!" Saying this, he forcefully dragged Li Hao into the carriage... Back at the Hunhuai Zong Camp, Meng Tian seized the time to read the recent Wenhan that came from the court.Since the Qin Dynasty ruled the world, some important news and important ceremonies that happened in all counties have to be reported to the imperial court, and the first emperor, the three princes, and the upper ministers read them, make decisions and distribute them to each counties and counties.In this way, it will have the effect of telling the whole country and everyone is familiar with it.Shu County's proclamation said that a baby girl could speak as soon as she was born, and it was all about what happened to her in her previous life. Meng Tian laughed and put it aside.There was another report that the battlements on the bend of the river were about to collapse down the river, the soldiers and civilians fought hard to rescue the emergency, and the county magistrate supervised the repairs day and night, and died in the line of duty...Meng Tian praised the county magistrate for his outstanding achievements.It caused the outside staff to probe, thinking that he was calling for someone. Suddenly, a line of eye-catching questions jumped into Meng Tian's eyes, which shocked him.But I saw that the clerk wrote: "Cha Mengtian arbitrarily used exiled border criminals to endanger the state system." Here it comes again!Meng Tian was upset when he saw it, didn't the emperor suppress it already?Although these people were unknown people, since Li Hao and his group were appointed in the form of candidates for the examination, the emperor obviously supported them.But it was because the emperor didn't issue a definite edict, which gave the ministers in the court an absolute excuse. All of a sudden, they accused, agreed, slandered, praised, punished... all of them had different opinions, and all of them poured down on Meng Tian's head and face.It is said that he has given face to the world's great scholars and scholars, but it is not an exaggeration for some people to curse him to death thousands of times.Later, the supporters of the exiled border cultural figures that Meng Tian used were also terrified, afraid to respond, and could only wait and see what happened. To be honest, there was a shortage of literary officials in all counties and counties in Qin Dynasty, and the shortage of practicing officials and senior officials was even more extreme.Meng Tian used the officials of the old country to make up for the lack of officials. This move can not but be said to be a pioneering work, which is a good thing.But everyone is clear in their hearts, those people are not only the trainees who are familiar with the road, but also the obstinate ministers of the old six countries. Let them control some important positions in the county government in the new Qin Dynasty, which is not bad!In this way, they continued to slander and criticize one after another. The first emperor did not say a word and let the wind from southeast to northwest, he only read it but did not approve it, and the original was sent to all counties.When Meng Tian saw the talisman wax paint, he understood that Shi Huang had read every memorial... During those days, dozens of original memorials arrived in the army every ten days and a half months, and Meng Tian sent them to the copywriters one by one, in order to let them know what they knew.Especially those who have just been activated and still have lingering fears, are once again worried and cautious.Several people including Meng Tian and Jiang Ion analyzed the current situation: the first emperor ordered Meng Tian, ​​and it is not impossible to seize the seal and commit a crime; at the same time, they also think that the chance of this is very small, because Ying Zheng is an emperor who has a long-term vision and plans for the overall situation.But the staff writers were sweating for Meng Tian, ​​and felt sad for themselves.Under the system of high-ranking officials and strict hierarchy, although Qin is no better than other countries, it has also formed a certain high-ranking climate.Most of these literary and ink scholars who came to Mengtian came from humble backgrounds and had no roots.Thinking that if Meng Tian falls, the trees will fall, the monkeys will be scattered, and even they will be affected, everyone is worried.Meng Tian comforted them and said: "Don't act like a dead old woman. Even if you are guilty, I will bear it alone. If you want to blame them, they will not be reconciled! They are all happy, and their enthusiasm for work is the same as before. If people say that, we will also You must listen, after a period of time I will invite you to return to Beijing to report on my work, and I will also tell the emperor what is in my heart, the emperor is still very sensible." Seeing that Meng Tian was still indifferent, everyone felt a little relieved.Having said that, various rumors about the first emperor still occupy people's minds.Meng Tian treats people with generosity and is righteous. Using them, these exiled cultured people, is an absolute trust in them. This alone is enough to make them feel very grateful.Not only for them, but also for those who failed to be hired after taking the exam, their living conditions have been changed, and they have been taken care of in all aspects.This is a well-known fact. Li Hao, Ziyu, Wu Ling, etc., as well as the dispatched officials from various counties, after reading the original documents of the imperial court, a considerable number of them gathered at the gate of the Chinese Army, and had no other choice but to greet Meng Tian.In the end, they simply reached a consensus and sincerely begged Meng Tian. The only way to express their feelings to the first emperor now is to restore their prisoner status as soon as possible, so that Meng Tian can regain the trust of the first emperor. "General Meng, your love for us can be learned from the world, and the scholars of the world will definitely remember it in their hearts. But the current situation is very unfavorable to you, so let's think more about yourself?" Everyone heard Ziyu say this , also interrupted one after another: "That's right! We don't care. People who have passed through the gate of hell once, do they care about the second time? If you want to fall, Qin will be completely over." "It seems that Xiqin is nothing more than that." "Originally, they are governing the country by means of criminal punishments. If the state policy is like this, what else is there for others!" Lu Guang couldn't bear to see everyone annoy Meng Tian, ​​so he diverted the conversation: "Okay, okay, the general didn't want to hear your complaints... " Lu Guang wanted everyone to hear Meng Tian's mood at the moment, everyone understood and immediately kept silent.Meng Tian still looked at ease and said: "I understand your feelings. Seeing that you can do things for the country and the place with peace of mind, I am satisfied, and all the grievances I have suffered will become insignificant. Life is not enough. It’s easy, some setbacks are inevitable, and you don’t have any complaints. The most important thing is to calm down and do your job well. In fact, many things in the world have been perfected in a subtle way. Such a big country can say that there are no mistakes in national policy. That's a lie, but it doesn't matter if you make a mistake, the important thing is how to change it. I firmly believe that by appointing you, you educated people are subtly influencing the emperor. I think the simplest point is that he has realized , cultural people, especially cultural people with experience in government affairs, are important to the country. This is enough, and it is equivalent to a million soldiers guarding the border. The emperor's decisions are made after careful consideration." Jiang Ion Also said: "Exactly. Everyone should do their jobs well, let those stupid people shut up, and use their political achievements to speak. This is considered to be helping the general. I have a word to tell everyone, the heavens promise good things, and the earth is safe. Listen to the brothers. Once, stop complaining indiscriminately, it’s useless. The more you complain, the worse it will be for the general and yourselves.” Just at this time, Zhuzhu walked into the door and said with a smile, "Are you hungry? It's time for dinner, let's eat first!" Then everyone dispersed to eat in embarrassment.Meng Tian opened Ji Fengyi's letter that was just delivered today, and hurriedly read: ...Everything in the world can change its nature after being tempered, and it will be wonderful.The general should do so.You have suffered a lot in your life, so you will naturally gain more insights and a stronger mind.Most of today's slanderers have abandoned Huang Zhong Dalu and only cared about going down. This is the worst policy.As the saying goes, people have no long-term worries, but they must have near-term worries!Just imagine, people can only be trapped in their body and never have a long-term sleepy heart.I understand your feelings, but have you ever thought about it, a person who dares to do everything in the world actually poses a big problem to the emperor.Although the emperor is not so petty, but do you know what to do next? After reading Ji Fengyi's letter, Meng Tian had mixed feelings in his heart.It would be great if this top guy was by his side at this moment, but unfortunately he is still entangled in the matter of Nanyue, to the point where he has to do it.He was still chewing on the letter intriguingly, "In order to seek talent, the ancients had a saying that 'a thousand pieces of gold buys a horse's bone, and a tower starts from the beginning'..." But in the end Ji Fengyi had to remind him that it was obvious that Meng Tian had to write an apology letter to the emperor... Now, those who can be used by me are all frail scholars who want to kill and are unable to carry a knife.Even if they are full of complaints, as long as they pay a little attention to government affairs, they can see great results. Such talents are really hard to find. Therefore, in his apology to the emperor, Meng Tian wrote: ... The minister heard that there was a lot of discussion, and he was called a guilty minister and a border scholar, but in fact he intended to sin against me, Daqin, which is tantamount to another "chasing away" trend.This order is like the order of chasing guests back then, it must be "the husband hits the urn and knocks the hou, plays the zither game, and sings and sings pleasantly, it is the real voice of Qin..." This is definitely not from the emperor's original intention.The sage said: Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.Today's Great Qin extends from east to west, and extends from north to south.The fields are abundant, the land is vast and the resources are abundant, and the only thing that is lacking is all kinds of talents.None of the bureaucrats in the court knew that the culture of the world was controlled by scholars, and those clan regulations would eventually be unable to replace the government of officials, and the government of officials was none other than scholars.Long-term lack of culture is to know the smallness of the world, and the prosperity of culture is to know the size of the world.Today, the land is opened up to the wilderness, and the people are deeply influenced by the barbarians. Who can solve this harm?Only culture!Today, the crimes of ministers are not enough, and the crimes of cultural people on the border are not enough. The construction and governance of the thirty-four counties in the new Qin Dynasty is the great cause of our Great Qin, and we must not slack off.If we can take advantage of the situation, the enlightened people can benefit Shilin, which will actually help the normal and orderly development of the new Qin. The sage said: It is a great festival for border officials to guard the city and guard the border, and it is not appropriate to proceed with the words and deeds of their colleagues;Otherwise, there is no such thing as the ability of Ren Xiao and the stability of Jiuyuan, and it is impossible to have the appearance of Li Si and Feng Jie in the court... Half a month later, the first emperor's edict arrived, and it was clear that he responded to Meng Tian by knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger: ... You are not apologetic, you are clearly defending yourself everywhere.Well, I agree to your request, pardon them for their innocence, and serve the new Qin Dynasty well.However, I remind you that you are a bit arbitrary in this matter, I will remember it for you! Although the matter calmed down like this, how can you peek into the muddy water in the middle of the court?Meng Tian and Jiang Ion have been thinking for a long time about the transmission that has bothered them recently, but they can't figure it out.The two were thinking hard, but they saw Yongxia following Pearl, and the two sisters opened the door to bring in lunch: "Why did you two even forget to eat, come and eat!" Meng Tian and Jiang Ion were really hungry I stopped thinking about other things, and I picked up a piece of steamed bun with chopsticks and ate it with big mouthfuls.While eating, Jiang Ion purposely found a way to get close to Yongxia: "...the general always eats at the same table with his staff, why is no one calling today?" "I haven't called you yet, but I have already called you several times." Yong Xia reproached and said, seeing Jiang Ion gobbled it up, she laughed and said, "Slow down, no one will grab you." Jiang Ion slowed down , finally opened his mouth, and said thick-skinned: "Yongxia, come with me, General Meng's place is too bitter, let's find a quieter place..." "Fuck you!" Yong Xia blushed and cast a sideways glance at Jiang Ion. This also reminded Meng Tian, ​​and Meng Tian said seriously: "That is to say, find a time to go back to Xianyang, tell the old man at home, and quickly settle this matter between you two..." "It's coming again..." Yong Xia didn't want to mention this matter.Jiang Ion and Yongxia's delicate love is well known, but it just blossoms but does not bear fruit. On this day, there was a noise outside the camp of the Hunhuai Zongzhong Army, as if there was a dispute between the guards and a woman.Meng Tian asked loudly: "What happened outside, why is it so noisy..." Before finishing speaking, a guard came in and reported: "General, there is a woman outside the camp who insists on seeing you, look..." Meng Tian put aside what he was doing, followed the sergeant out of the house and headed towards the gate of the camp.When Meng Tian and his group arrived, the woman was arguing with the guard: "Why can't I enter the camp of the Chinese army? Tell me!" Moderate..." "What's the rule? Is it wrong for me to come to my husband?" The Hu girl was still imposing and aggressive.After hearing this, Jin Wei wondered, how did she become the general's wife?No way... It seems that this woman is a little crazy, no, let alone let her in.The camp guard's words were even harsher: "Leave here immediately, otherwise..." "Otherwise what should I do?" The woman showed a domineering expression and looked down upon the guards of the camp. The camp gate guard was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, suddenly saw Meng Tian and others approaching, as if seeing a savior: "General, she..." Meng Tian motioned the guard to step aside first, and carefully looked at the woman in front of him.This bearded woman has distinctive physical features. She wears a hood covering her eyes, her eyebrows under the eaves are curved like a crescent moon, her eyes are like a deep pool of unfathomable depths, her nose is pointed and hooked downwards, and her thick lips are simple and cute, just like a penetrating star. Red mountain apricot.The blond hair was braided into small braids and fell loosely on the plump shoulders.Dressed in a bright water-red robe, and tied with an emerald green ribbon around the waist, he showed a tall and slender figure.Meng Tian had already confirmed that she was of mixed race, and she seemed to have known each other, and finally he remembered that he had seen this woman when he rescued Jiaoyang in Chifu. Since the opening of the Northland for more than a year, he has been walking frequently in the village and pavilions, and Meng Tian has some understanding of the customs of the frontier there.The Hu and Qin mixed houses are even more unique. Hu people admire Qin women for being graceful and charming, and Qin people love Hu women as fierce as strong wine. After being drinking friends, the men of Hu and Qin are very speculative, and things happen to exchange wives from time to time. .But things changed over time, and the trouble came to the county government, and it was very troublesome for the officials to deal with such cases.Later, the new Qin Dynasty had to strictly order: it is not allowed to exchange wives at will, and offenders will be charged with crimes, so as to put an end to bad customs, and Hu Qin men are even more proud of being able to marry a mixed-race child in this life.Meng Tian had basically guessed who this woman came for! "Your name is Naren Molan!" Meng Tian bluntly called out Naren Molan's name, which greatly surprised her, and she couldn't help asking, "How do you know my name?" The elegant and handsome general in front of her took the initiative to step forward According to each other, Naren Molan was both happy and surprised.My heart said: It seems that the camp of the Chinese army in the north is indeed hiding dragons and crouching tigers. The man in front of me is suave, unrestrained and heroic, who should he be?Her intuition told her that the person standing in front of her might be Meng Tian.She forced herself to calm down a lot, and then put on an arrogant air, and asked loudly, "Which one are you?" When she said that, she deliberately moved forward and looked directly at Meng Tian, ​​her eyes were like lightning, and she was pretty. With a coquettish.Meng Tian was a little uncomfortable, so he had to correct his military appearance, cast aside his gaze, and replied: "My lord, Meng Tian. Please tell me about this woman in the army camp." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand politely.Naren Molan was very happy in her heart, and she met the Righteous Lord as soon as she came, which made her more confident about this trip.But he also admired Meng Tian's generosity and tolerance in his heart, so he followed Meng Tian into the Chinese army camp. Inside, the soldiers lined up in a row, with a post at three steps and a whistle at five steps, lined up in the aisle.The guards kept their eyes straight, held their heads high, and stood motionless like nails, which made the barracks suddenly solemn and awe-inducing.Naren Molan couldn't help but gasped, completely losing her previous momentum. Several people followed into the living room and sat down.At this time, Pearl brought tea, and she was polite and respectful for a while.Meng Tian said bluntly: "If my subordinates offend Ms. Naren Molan, please tell them bluntly. This general will not tolerate it." Excited.Suddenly, Naren Molan raised her voice and said, "General Meng, you killed Li Hao, the son of a bitch..." Before she could finish speaking, she felt sad and sobbed.Meng Tian comforted and said: "Li Hao holds an important position in Beihe County, if you offend Miss Naren Molan, please tell the truth, this general will definitely make the decision for you." "It's not just an offense. The little girl has already been 'spoiled' by him..." But Naren Molan's grievance and crying did not seem to be insulted, but rather trapped by love.After Meng Tian heard this, he thought to himself: Li Hao has made outstanding achievements in governing Beihe County. I have already transferred him back to the army, and I plan to send him to serve in another county.At present, it has been more than 20 days since I returned to the camp and was on standby for departure.Then, Meng Tian ordered the guards: "Go, call me Li Hao!" It turned out that Naren Molan was a caring woman.Lee Ho tried all the cases on the stage, and she watched them from left to right.What's more, each case has its own characteristics and is not the same, but Lee Ho's methods are also changed according to the needs of the case, and he does not follow the old rules, so that each case can be successfully concluded, satisfying the victim, and frightening those who try the law by themselves.At the same time, it eliminates evil and promotes good, so that the weak in life can suddenly see the light, adding courage to pursue a happy life. In Naren Molan's heart, Li Hao is simply the incarnation of a god, as if he fell from the sky and rescued her from Chimu's claws. What kind of kindness is this?In fact, as early as the moment she was rescued, Naren Molan had already fallen in love with this person. In a hazy moment, whenever she missed him, she would be very excited, and a vivid figure would always dance in front of Molan's eyes.The figure was tall and straight, heroic and elegant, with a brave temperament revealed between the delicate brows.This is Li Hao in Mo Lan's mind.Mo Lan, who has thought about it, is not as lively and happy as before, which makes the old Mutu and his wife, who have just been freed, worry a lot.Is it because the daughter can't bear the blow, or is there something else on her mind?Asked her, Mo Lan just put it lightly and perfunctorily.How did the old couple know that their daughter's heart had been opened by love... One day, Mo Lan happily came over to talk to old Mutu and the others, which made the old couple very happy.Mo Lan suggested going to the county government to invite Li Hao to come to his house as a guest. This is a good idea, but I'm afraid Li Hao won't show his respect.The whole family thought it over and decided to try it first, so there was the incident that Li Hao was invited by the old Mutu's family to Nalinnao as a guest.Nalinnao is more than 20 miles away from the Beihe County Government, lying across the remnants of the Beiyi Mountains that have reached the bottom, the grasslands, wetlands, shrubs, pine forests, and fertile fields under the mountains are beautifully arranged in a patchwork layout.Feng Qingyang is tall and piercing into the sky, guarding around Nalinnao like a guard. The scenery is pleasant and unique. Li Hao was overwhelmed by the scenery as soon as he arrived.Accompanied by old Mutu and his daughter Molan, Li Hao traveled all over Nalinnao, and went boating alone with Molan on the clear Xinghai Lake, and went to Yaer Island to watch birds.In the evening, when relatives and friends left, old Mutu happily sang barefoot, and took Li Hao in a small felt bag to talk about heroes with wine.He ordered his daughter to cut another two catties of meat, and sell another two catties of wine. The two of them were drunk and talking about heroes in the world.Mo Lan stayed around all the time, pouring wine and tea for them. Mu Tujiu lived with the people of Qin, and Qin Yu spoke quite idiomatically. "Fights are everywhere, and human lives are like paper! Brother, you haven't seen the Qin army and the Huns fighting, that's called creepy. The three men of the Qin army shot it with a crossbow, and that guy was fine. He pierced his chest through his back. I've seen it with my own eyes. What a beautiful horse! Just shot it like that." So far he cut a piece of beef and chewed it in his mouth before continuing.Daughter Mo Lan already has a lot of opinions, she doesn't want the person she admires to listen to her father nagging. “匈奴人败得那个惨呀！那可真叫兵败如山倒哇！北归时，那军纪乱哄哄的，那可是见啥抢啥，没有人管束了。那些什么狗屁王、狗屁将军们，跑得比孙子还快，剩下那些当兵的可不就是个抢嘛。女人可就遭殃喽！每过一村一寨，人货必遭打劫……” “人之生也柔弱，其死也坚强，草木之生也柔脆，其死也枯槁，倾巢之下焉有完卵？富贵门里抛出的猎狗还要祸及三门，何况是一场战争！”李镐神情一片肃然。 “兄弟，不想你年纪轻轻已经历了这许多磨难。不过，方今天下，有才者必不会久处囊中，边地若不开这经略之府，老弟也难抒一腔抱负。老实说，当今天下英雄也莫过于蒙恬将军了。” “我看李大哥就可算得上当今英雄……”漠兰倾慕地看着李镐这样说，窘得李镐赶紧道：“漠兰姑娘不可这样过誉……本职虚有其名。”穆图大为不满地瞪着女儿：“你这丫头咋这样呢？我正跟人家论弟兄，你怎么也不能喊恩人为大哥呀……” “他就是我大哥，大哥不比恩人好么？我就叫他大哥！”娜仁漠兰一脸倔强，也使得穆图极为尴尬，从中也将女儿的心思猜到几分，悄悄退出毡包回房休息。顺便跟老婆说到漠兰的心思，老两口一致认为，漠兰若真能嫁给李镐，也是天大的好事，自然是心里喜滋滋的。 穆图知趣地给女儿腾出了地方也腾出了时间。宽畅的空间、轻松愉悦的环境下，两个年轻人温情柔意地又唠起同一个话题：“李大哥，那你说，谁才是天下英雄？是皇帝还是蒙恬？那死了的荆轲算不算英雄？” “所谓英雄，并不以战胜多寡而论。自古胜者为王败者寇，这只是战胜者强加于人的感观。岂不闻，不以成败论英雄，前朝古今有许多失败的人物，无论就其事业而言，还是就其个人品德而论，都是高尚的。他们之中有些人的失败恰恰就在于其人格的光明磊落……” “大哥喝口茶吧！”李镐的慨然之论，更让娜仁漠兰倾慕、诚服，斟满一杯茶递给李镐。此时的李镐还未察觉出漠兰的心思，仍然沉浸在一阵豪气当中，岂知姑娘已经悄然爱上了他。一直到月落乌啼，两个人还是不知疲倦地聊着。 李镐要回县衙，漠兰总是强留，爱情方式如战时纷飞箭矢，野蛮霸道，不容回避。接连几天的情意缠绵，耳鬓厮磨，两个人早已心心相印，私订终身，就剩下向爹娘挑明此事。而两个人正在爱河里难以自拔时，李镐突然接到来自浑怀障的一道飞书，命他速速回中军大营，有要事须速办。此令在手，李镐立马像变了个人似的，走出两个人营造了好几天的爱巢，变成一个严于律己的冷血动物。他只是简明扼要地给漠兰讲了一下，收拾东西马上要动身。漠兰这才意识到原来他俩之间似乎什么都没发生，她的情绪急转直下，连日来培养出的浪漫爱情如镜中花、水中月，竟然被即将的别离击溃。漠兰有点慌神，忐忑不安地恳求道：“我俩的婚事也该给我爹娘说说了吧？” “再说吧……”李镐一边收拾东西，一边回答，一副心不在焉的样子。漠兰扑进他怀里，紧紧抱住他，泣声道：“就这么走……就这么走吗？”李镐岂能无动于衷，他把脸紧紧贴到漠兰鲜嫩火烫的脸颊上，轻声道：“漠兰，你，等我好吗？” 漠兰这才放开他，眼望着他登上马车离去，背影消失在纳林淖的暮霭里，就如同一阵幻影在漠兰眼前瞬间逝去。自那个黄昏之后，漠兰像丢了魂似的，整天没事就往山口跑，双眼巴望远方官道，巴望能在一瞬间看见李镐乘着马车到来。思念之情一日胜似一日，姑娘美丽的容颜消瘦，往日的光泽顿失，爹娘看着心疼。某一日，母亲建议说不如你去找他…… 这便是前面勇闯中军大营的胡女。蒙恬令近卫去把李镐叫来的这个时辰，也对事情的原委有了个大概地了解。听完漠兰的哭诉，蒙恬哈哈大笑：“就这事呀？好办……”漠兰不由得惊讶问：“将军有何良策？” “以欺骗良善民女之罪办了他……” “不……将军，”漠兰情急，赶紧说道：“这样仍不能解决问题……”蒙恬已经听出她的弦外之音，故意问道：“办他不成，不办他更不成，那，你说怎么办？”娜仁漠兰羞赧地低下头，撒娇道：“将军，您明明知道该怎么办，就求您了……” “噢——我明白了，干脆我给你们俩主婚，让你嫁给李镐，这样……” “谢将军大恩大德……”娜仁漠兰听到此话，当即跪地给蒙恬磕头。此时就见中门走进一人，正是刚刚赶回营的李镐。 李镐走进大厅，一眼看到娜仁漠兰，惊讶地说：“漠兰，是你……”娜仁漠兰哪里还能强忍，哭着扑进李镐怀里：“夫君呀，夫君……”蒙恬示以眼色，咏霞、姜离子见状，几人悄悄退出屋门。珍珠不由掩面而笑：“这女人真能笑死人……还口口声声说要杀了李镐……” 三天以后，浑怀障举行了别开生面的婚礼。蒙恬专门为谪边文人李镐和娜仁漠兰主持了婚礼，有情人终成眷属。
