Since leaving the capital, the fancy currying favour of local officials from all over the world had spoiled Eunuch Qian beyond recognition.
Before it was heaven, now it’s hell.
Falling from heaven to hell all of a sudden, such a huge difference, Eunuch Qian couldn’t accept it, and Eunuch Qian was now very angry.
Seeing that Eunuch Qian was so angry that he was about to lose control, Master Yao stepped forward, with a smile on his face, he went up to dislike the stagecoach pawn, and without a trace, he added another fire to Eunuch Qian, ”Do you know who is standing in front of you? Eunuch Qian is an imperial messenger, why don’t you quickly open the gate of the post station and pack the best room inside to welcome Eunuch Qian.”
Although Master Yao was a superior official, the stagecoach pawns knew that he had already been impeached by the county honours for running away from the battlefield. I heard that this was a serious offence, which could result in the loss of one’s official position if it was minor, or the loss of one’s life if it was serious. Therefore, Yao’s words didn’t carry much weight for the postman at the moment, and since the new military official Liu was in the post house and had just reiterated the rules, the postman didn’t dare to make a mistake at this juncture.
In addition, he was acting according to Liu Dianliang’s orders, even if something went wrong, Liu Dianliang would take the blame.
Therefore, after Master Yao finished speaking, the postman still insisted on showing the official document and verifying it before entering.
Rubbish!
Eunuch Qian has long been unable to hold back, suddenly rubbing a fire, orchid finger a pinch, pointing at the door of the post station, gloomy a black face, pointed voice, “Today miscellaneous family still want to stay in the post house is not!”
“This ……”
The post house gatekeeper was at a loss for words.
“Get out of the way!”
The sword guards behind Eunuch Qian took a step forward, impatiently grabbed the collar of the post house guard with one hand and threw him to the ground like a chicken, then kicked the post house door away and bowed down to invite Eunuch Qian and the others to enter.
The postman only felt that his vision changed drastically, first he was lifted up high, then the sky turned upside down, when he reacted, he had already rolled on the ground several times like a rolling gourd, and what caught his eyes was Eunuch Qian’s feet.
Eunuch Qian grunted, with his hands behind his back, he raised his feet and crossed over from the head of the pawns of the post house, and slowly stepped into the post house, and Zhang County Minister and others followed behind Eunuch Qian, and raised their feet and crossed over from the head of the pawns of the post house in turn.
“Bah! Give your face no face!”
“Toast the wine and eat the penalty wine! You’re really a cheap bastard!”
A cadre of officials also neatly raised their feet to cross over from the head of the stagecoach pawn, there are a few unsuspecting, but also stepped on the stagecoach pawn a few times, not only that, one by one, they also sneered, a few people even spit a mouthful of spit.
Behind the stagecoach pawns were messy on the ground, with several more shoe prints on their faces and dirty bodies.
“What’s going on!”
Liu Jie Liu Dian official who was familiarising himself with the work inside the post house heard the noisy commotion outside, frowned and walked out quickly, then he saw the post house in a mess, the post house guard pawns were lying on the ground ouching and screaming miserably, the gate was smashed off, and there was an additional group of people who came from a bad place, clustering around a feminine eunuch inside the post house.
Eh? It’s Zhang Magistrate and the others.
Although Liu Jie did not cross paths with County Minister Zhang and the others, but County Minister Zhang and the others were the leaders of the county office after all, and Liu Jie still knew them.
“County Procurator Zhang, Chief Minister Yao, Dignitary Li, may I ask what your intentions are? Why did you break into my post house? Tearing down the gate of my post house? Beating up my postmen?!”Liu Jie took a step forward, arched his hand and asked in a deep voice.
“Are you the new Military Room Warden Liu Jie? Why don’t you quickly step forward and kneel down to welcome Eunuch Qian.”Li Dian Shi took a step forward, swept Liu Jie with disdain, stretched out a finger to empty his nostrils, flicked it in Liu Jie’s direction, and did not pay attention to Liu Jie’s questioning, but instead ordered Liu Jie.
“Eunuch, please take a seat.”Seeing the master of the house come out, a small eunuch took the initiative to come behind Eunuch Qian, kneeling on the ground, his hands residing, in the shape of a sitting stool, inviting Eunuch Qian to sit on him.
Eunuch Qian was not polite, and sat on the little eunuch with one buttock, reached out and lifted the hem of his coat, and crossed his legs.
He was just like a big brother image.
“Eunuch Qian?!”Liu Jie sniffed and glanced at Eunuch Qian, slightly shook his head and asked again, “May I ask Li Dian Shi, why did you break into my post house? Tearing down my post house’s gate? Beating up my postman?!”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see Eunuch Qian’s grand entrance? Your stagehands were so blind as to turn away Eunuch Qian, we taught him a lesson for you!”Li Dian Shi spat a mouthful of spit and impatiently returned.
Liu Jie turned his gaze to the stagehand who fell to the ground, the stagehand scrambled to his feet and said with a crying face, “Lord Liu, I didn’t turn them away, I just strictly followed your instructions and asked them to present their official documents for verification. But I did not expect that they, they beat up the little one without a word, and kicked the gate …….”
“Lord Li, is that what happened?”Liu Jie sniffed and turned his gaze towards Li Dian Shi, arching his hand and asking.
“What are you bothering to say! Can’t you see that the sun is so high now! Why don’t you quickly pack up the best room in the post house for Eunuch Qian, have good wine and food ready, and invite Eunuch Qian inside.”
Li Dianshi spat disdainfully and ordered Liu Jie in a commanding manner.
“If you want to stay in the post house, please also ask Eunuch Qian to present the official document and verify that it is correct before you can stay in the post house.”
Liu Jie faintly replied back.
Again, you have to show the official document! Where does the miscellaneous family have any official documents!
Eunuch Qian’s fire again miso a nest up, sitting on the back of the little eunuch, crossing his legs, pinching the orchid finger pointing at pointing at Liu, pointedly and grimly said, “If the miscellaneous family does not show the official document?!”
“I’m sorry, according to the laws and regulations of Daming, to stay in a post house, you must be an official who is in charge of military affairs, present the official document, and check that it is correct before you can stay in the post house. Please cooperate with the eunuch. Otherwise, please forgive this post house for not being able to receive you.”
Liu Jie looked at Eunuch Qian and returned with a serious face.
“Forgive me for not being able to receive?!”
When Eunuch Qian heard this, his face instantly turned black as a pot, his neck was angry with veins showing, and he gritted his teeth and said.
“Forgive me!”Liu Jie nodded.
“I’m telling you, this post house, I’m still staying today!”Eunuch Qian glared at Liu Jie and said word for word.
“I’m sorry. Men, send the guests away!”Liu Jie shouted to the postman.
“How dare you!”Eunuch Qian huffed and waved his hand, barking orders in a grim voice, “Give me a good lesson on this cheap slave who doesn’t know how to behave!”
At Eunuch Qian’s command, four guards wearing swords, several small eunuchs, and a group of people such as County Minister Zhang resolutely followed through. Although Liu Jie has a few hands, but two fists can’t beat four hands, two stagehands are equivalent to a waste of time, very soon, Liu Jie was knocked to the ground, and then was tied up and hung on a tree.
A whipping!
A meal of verbal abuse!
