It was said that the new captain and the deputy captain, two high-ranking officials, had a real fight in the street. They exchanged punches and kicks, and in the end, not only were their hair buns messed up, their robes torn, their shoes flying, but they were also both injured.
The new captain had two black circles under his eyes and a crooked nose that was bleeding profusely, soaking his collar. The deputy captain had lost two teeth, half his face was bruised, and one of his eyes was so swollen he couldn't open it.
The two men's men were also busy fighting.
When the gang finally tired themselves out and stopped beating, they discovered that, in addition to those with bruised faces, injured arms and legs, and even broken limbs, there were actually several people who had been pinned down or trampled on...
Because Li Gan had gone to other places in Bohai County before, by the time he heard about these things, the new captain and deputy captain had already received the best medicine and were almost recovered.
But Li Gan could clearly see the awkwardness and hostility between the two people.
He sent people to investigate, and what they uncovered was such a ridiculous farce.
These two people are so competitive. I wonder if they will take the opportunity to harm each other when something big happens, or will they be able to put aside their grudges and put national affairs first?
No matter how Li Gan thought about it, he felt that these two guys didn't seem like the kind of people with broad minds.
Li Gan has been feeling a little irritated these days.
Most of the people under his command were scattered, and even if there were a few who came back to report, they were still stretched to the limit and there was not enough for them no matter how they were arranged.
People are rarely useful until they are needed!
However, just based on the people in Jinyiyunqi now, many court officials are dissatisfied and have repeatedly submitted memorials to admonish the emperor.
So, for the time being, these Jinyiyunqi people really can only make do with it...
Li Gan had two original purposes for coming to Beiguan Town.
First, he accompanied his superiors to conduct random inspections of the various outposts under him, to see if anyone was slacking off, or if anyone was corrupt and abusing the law. Second, he was investigating the strange things that had happened in Beiguan Town before—for example, the strange things that had stopped the enemy under the banner of the Beiguan Town Qianhu Suo...
However, like Xiao Lubuhua, his thoughts strayed to the Mohist school.
I always feel that some of the Mohist disciples are lurking at the border, so they couldn't help but take action to warn.
He never expected that he could not find out the origin of those things, nor the trace of Mohist disciples, but he discovered some remarkable things from several places in Bohai County.
It has almost become commonplace for Qianhu Suo to collect salaries without working, send caravans to engage in smuggling, and engage in robbery among robbers.
He couldn't do anything about it at the moment, but he had to collect evidence. The more and more complete the better.
It’s a pity that there is a shortage of manpower, things are very busy, and we can’t just let go.
Li Gan couldn't help but feel a little angry.
This surge of anger came up, perhaps due to a bit of unfamiliarity with the local climate, and half of my teeth started to ache.
When the tooth hurts, the face also swells up.
His whole appearance became mediocre, and there was no trace of his former handsomeness and brilliance.
When Xia Daohua accompanied Zhou to Beiguan Town to visit her aunt Xia Yujiao, she met Li Gan and almost didn't recognize him.
It was only when Li Gan smiled and greeted Xia Daohua that she recognized him. She couldn't help but blurt out, "Have you changed your appearance again?"
Li Gan's expression changed in an instant, and then he smiled again, but the smile was a little crooked, and his voice was a little cold: "I have a toothache and my face is swollen."
When Xia Daohua was in modern times, she had wisdom teeth that grew crookedly, so she had experienced the essence of toothache. Although she knew in her heart that she shouldn't gloat over other people's misfortune, she couldn't help but find Li Gan's appearance a little funny.
She secretly bit her cheeks twice to hold back her smile, and a few tears squeezed out of her eyes:
"I have a medicine that's very effective for toothaches. I'll bring it to you later."
Li Gan clearly saw a smile on Xia Daohua's face, but then he saw tears in her eyes. Then, when he heard that she was going to send him medicine, his initial annoyance disappeared in an instant:
"I've already seen a doctor, but my toothache is caused by internal heat. The fire in my heart is too strong, and no medicine can suppress it."
After saying this, Li Gan almost bit his tongue.
There's something weird about this girl!
I am not the kind of person who opens up to others easily!
Why do I feel relieved when I see her?
Li Gan was feeling annoyed when Zhou had already finished paying her respects to him and called Xia Daohua forward without any politeness.
Although Xia Daohua is still a teenager, Li Gan is an official after all. How many good officials are there? This silly girl, why doesn't she know how to be afraid?
How dare you even mention her medicine! The medicine she made herself is useless if given to others. How can people trust it?
Besides, if something goes wrong with the family, wouldn’t that be another disaster?
Zhou knew that Li Gan had greatly helped the Xia family by rescuing Xia Yujiao, but he had been holding her captive and refusing to release her, which made Zhou feel uneasy.
She had previously attempted to assassinate Jin Yong and caught a cold. While she was in bed recuperating, she felt relieved, but she kept thinking about what had happened at home over the past year.
I always feel like my family seems to have offended Tai Sui, or has run into something?
Otherwise, why would things keep happening one after another, without any peace at all! And none of these things are good things...
Seeing that Zhou had already walked some distance away, Xia Daohua quickly greeted Li Gan and hurriedly chased after her.
Li Gan smiled and shook his head.
Unexpectedly, that night, Li Gan received the medicine sent by Xia Daohua.
Xia Daohua gave him a very delicate transparent glass bottle filled with white medicine powder, and explained that it was specially used to treat toothaches and was enough for ten doses.
This medicine powder is actually the most common bezoar metronidazole.
Xia Daohua simply crushed the original tablets, rolled them into powder with a rolling pin, and put them into the glass bottle that originally contained the small fragrance beads.
This "packaging" suddenly seems a bit mysterious and very valuable.
Li Gan is worthy of his name.
I received the medicine that Xia Daohua personally delivered to me, but I didn't even ask anyone to test it or anything. I just took it once according to the dosage Xia Daohua said.
This medicine is amazingly effective in curing toothaches.
Li Gan was pleasantly surprised to find that his toothache, which was originally unbearable, could now be easily endured.
I simply took it again before going to bed, and that night I slept soundly for half the night.
The reason why it was half a night was because something big happened in Beiguan Town in the second half of the night.
The county government office in Beiguan Town caught fire.
