Dare to Live Up to the Country and Live Up to Your Honor Ⅰ

"I think this corpse can no longer be put away, why don't we deal with it first?" Ponce looked at his shoes in disgust. It seemed that he would definitely not be able to wear them after he went back.

Gongsun Mingyue did not speak. He silently covered the corpse with a white cloth, then turned around and walked out of the mortuary, and ordered the yamen servant outside the door: "Bury the county magistrate's corpse in his family's ancestral grave. I will go and see it when I have time."

"Yes."

Pang Ce followed closely and walked out of the morgue. He could understand Gongsun Mingyue's thoughts at this time. After all, they were his relatives. Although they didn't have deep feelings, they were relatives after all.

Gongsun Mingyue thought differently from Pang Ce's. Now that his uncle's head had not been found, it was impossible for him to regard him as an uncle based on a headless corpse.All along, no matter what happened to him, he had to figure it out. This was true for others, especially for his relatives. Every day he didn't see his uncle's head, he couldn't believe that they were dead.

When Gongsun Mingyue and Pang Ce returned to the county yamen, there was a large crowd of people surrounding the yamen, and the noisy crowd was being driven away by the yamen servants.

Gongsun Mingyue walked forward quickly, only then did she clearly see that it turned out to be a group of beggars, making a noise around the yamen servants.

"Call out your magistrate, the beggar is not a human anymore?"

"That is, do you want to drive us all to death?"

"Yep."

Gongsun Mingyue walked up to the yamen servant without knowing why, and said, "What's going on?"

The yamen servant immediately pulled Gongsun Mingyue aside, and said quietly: "They came to report that their boss is missing."

"Missing?" Gongsun Mingyue asked curiously, will the beggar still disappear?

"You are the county magistrate, right? You want to be the master for us?" Suddenly a man jumped out from the crowd of beggars, ran in front of Gongsun Mingyue, knelt down and kowtowed.

When did Gongsun Mingyue see such a situation? He hurriedly pulled the man up and said awkwardly: "Being the master of the people is what Gongsun Mingyue should do. Please get up."

The man stood up slowly, and only then did Gongsun Mingyue see clearly that he was not ugly in his 20s, but his face was covered with dust and mud, which covered up his original handsome face and handsome thick eyebrows. , the crescent-like eye tips, the high nose bridge, and the slightly trembling lips at this time all make people feel that if they are tidied up properly, this person will definitely be a handsome man.

"What's your name?" Gongsun Mingyue asked softly.

"Huang Xiaobei." The man said shyly.

Gongsun Mingyue saw that this person was quite smart, so she turned her head and said to the group of beggars below: "Go back first, blocking the gate is not a serious matter after all, I think this brother Huang should stay and explain the matter clearly. If it is indeed missing, I will definitely help you find it."

The beggars in front of the gate dispersed in a rush, and disappeared immediately. Gongsun Mingyue invited Huang Xiaobei into the yamen, and asked Xiaorong to prepare meals for him. Presumably, he should be starving by now.

Pang Ce looked at the voracious Huang Xiaobei in front of him, and couldn't help wondering why he had never seen this person in Tianshui Town, could it be that he was negligent?Judging from the temperament of this person is completely different from those beggars, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a disciple of the beggar gang.Thinking about this, he felt the need to clarify.

Gongsun Mingyue looked at Huang Xiaobei in a completely different mood. He had to beg along the street to support himself at a young age. He couldn't help but sympathize with him. Seeing that his conversation was decent, he must have studied for a few years. can help him.

"Xiaobei, have you ever studied?" Gongsun Mingyue asked lightly.

Huang Xiaobei suddenly put down the chicken leg in his hand, and said with some embarrassment: "I used to study for a few years when I was in my hometown, but then my hometown was hit by a flood, and my family members died, so I had to become a beggar."

"Then why don't you stay in the yamen to help, anyway, I also need someone who has studied to help read the file. What do you think?" Gongsun Mingyue has a good impression of this Huang Xiaobei, and she can't help but hope that he can stay in the yamen. Help yourself in the Yamen.

"My lord." Pang Ce suddenly said loudly from the side, trying to remind Gongsun Mingyue to be cautious, but Gongsun Mingyue rolled his eyes and said angrily, "I know what I'm doing."

Huang Xiaobei also raised his head and looked at Pang Ce curiously. This person actually wanted to influence Lord Gongsun's decision, which was beyond his imagination.

In this way, Huang Xiaobei stayed on logically. Although Pang Ce was not happy with one thousand and ten thousand, but Gongsun Mingyue was happy, he had no choice.

From Huang Xiaobei's narration, Gongsun Mingyue and the others probably knew the ins and outs of the matter.

Qiu Chenghu is the boss of the group of beggars in Tianshui Town. Because he is upright and takes good care of his brothers, everyone respects him very much.Qiu Chenghu has a habit of gathering everyone before dark every day, and everyone reports on the begging situation of the day. The better people will consciously give some benefits to the worse people. There is no situation where anyone will go hungry.But since three days ago, Qiu Chenghu hasn't shown up again. At first, everyone thought he was delayed because of temporary errands, but he didn't show up for three days in a row. Everyone couldn't help but start to worry. It was Huang Xiaobei who suggested that everyone come to the yamen to report the case , he felt that they might not be able to find results if they searched by themselves, it might as well let the people from the government search together, maybe there will be news soon.

Gongsun Mingyue stood up and walked around the room. After a while, he stopped and asked curiously, "Does this Qiu Chenghu have any special hobbies, such as drinking, smoking or something else?"

After thinking for a while, Huang Xiaobei said: "I really don't think there are any hobbies, but I just like smoking dry tobacco, and I often smoke for a whole day."

"I like to smoke." Gongsun Mingyue repeated, but her eyes glanced at Pon Ce inadvertently, and Pon Ce was also looking at herself in surprise.

Gongsun Mingyue immediately regained her composure, smiled and said to Huang Xiaobei: "How about this, you will sleep in the yamen today, anyway, I don't live here, so you should be watching the night for the yamen."

Huang Xiaobei was so excited that he didn't know what to say, he just kept repeating: "It's really possible, is it really possible?"

"Of course, I will ask Xiao Rong to prepare some clothes for you later. You can take a shower and change out of the dirty clothes." Gongsun Mingyue pointed at his tattered coat.

"Thank you, Lord Gongsun, thank you, Lord Gongsun." Huang Xiaobei suddenly fell to his knees and kowtowed vigorously.

"Okay, don't just kneel down, there is gold under the man's knees." Gongsun Mingyue gently helped him up, then turned to Ponce and said, "Let's go, let's go to the lobby first, let Xiaobei change clothes." Said Finished, walked out with Ponce one after the other.

Pang Ce glanced at Huang Xiaobei out of the corner of his eye, and then walked out behind Gongsun Mingyue. He had to ask him carefully, why did he keep this person named Huang Xiaobei?

"Leave him, why don't you discuss it with me?" Pang Ce asked unhappily behind Gongsun Mingyue after walking away.

"I'm just keeping a child, why should I discuss it with you?" Gongsun Mingyue said without looking back.

Pang Ce was not happy when he heard it, so he quickly walked past Gongsun Mingyue, blocked his way in front of him, and said with a strange expression: "Children? Do you think he looks like a child?"

Gongsun Mingyue looked up to meet his strange eyes, and said curiously: "It doesn't matter if it's a child or not, will this hinder my decision to keep him?"

"You..." Ponce didn't know what to say, yes, since he has already made his decision, who can influence his decision?

Gongsun Mingyue bypassed him and continued to walk forward, saying in a faint voice: "I hope you understand that now I am the master and you are the servant, and you must obey me in everything."

"Master Gongsun, is this point clear? If that's the case, then I won't accompany you." After Pang Ce finished speaking, he turned around and jumped up, gently landed on the edge of the lotus pond three feet away, and then quickly opened the door. He walked out the back door without looking back.

Gongsun Mingyue didn't turn around. He knew that Pang Ce had left, and his heart was boiling like hot water.Hearing that the back door opened and closed, he couldn't help but wryly smiled, and continued to walk forward, meeting Xiao Rong head-on, he told Huang Xiaobei's affairs, and then went straight to the lobby, I don't know how many cases are waiting today Looking at himself, at a time like this, he couldn't be more distracted.

Pang Ce didn't understand why Gongsun Mingyue's attitude towards him had changed so much. He kept wondering if he did something wrong that made him angry?While thinking, he vetoed his own conclusion, and walked to the Yuelai Inn unconsciously.

Niu Dachuan was anxiously dealing with Hongniang Sun at this time, and now he really regrets that he opened the shop opposite her home.

"Brother Dachuan, just accept it. He has been embroidering for many days." Sun Hongniang was holding a purse, and was chatting with Niu Dachuan in front of the counter, but Sun Hongniang was too persistent, and Niu Dachuan disappeared for a while. idea.

When Pang Ce entered the door, Niu Dachuan was dodging Hongniang Sun, and accidentally bumped into Pon Ce. He turned around and said embarrassingly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Seeing someone coming, Sun Hongniang didn't want to be too entangled, so she had no choice but to put the purse on the counter and said, "I put it here for you, I'll go first." After speaking, her waist twisted After leaving Yuelai Inn and walking to the door, he didn't forget to turn his head and wink at Niu Dachuan.

Pang Ce wanted to find a place to sit down. Niu Dachuan picked up a rag and went up to wipe off the seat by the window, and then said to Pon Ce: "Guest officer, are you working at the top or staying in a hotel?"

"Dinner." Ponce sat down politely, looked around and said, "There aren't many people in your store?"

"Guest officer, I usually do road business, but since the death of the previous county magistrate, no one dares to come to Tianshui Town today, so the business is naturally much lighter." Niu Dachuan said embarrassingly, "If this continues, I'm afraid I don't even have to drink water."

Ponce smiled and said, "Cut some beef for me, and add two jugs of wine."

"Okay, guest officer, wait for a while, and I'll be here right away." After Niu Dachuan finished speaking, he turned and ran to the kitchen immediately.
