20. Squirrels
Dong Yu, the gatekeeper, rushed to the Hongyong Mansion prison with four or five soldiers guarding the city with goose-headed knives in hand, and broke into the prison when he saw the door, and the jailer outside the prison door thought that the old doorman was going to rob the prison, so he hurriedly entered the hospital to inform the prison master.
When the prison officer Xu Ning heard that it was still available, he hurriedly gathered the prison guards to stand in front of the prison door with their swords unsheathed, and saw the old doorman enter the courtyard and shouted: "Presumptuous old thing, dare to rob the prison?"
Dong Yu, who had just entered the hospital, was stunned when he heard this, looked up and saw that there were many swords in the courtyard, and he was shocked and scolded: "Lao Tzu robbed your grandmother's leg, surnamed Xu, take a good look at people, and Lao Tzu is not finished with you if you have a hair missing." ”
After that, the old doorman Dong Yu carefully sent the injured Tuoba Yan to the prison officer Xu Ning, and opened the clothes in front of the wolf head.
The warden Xu Ning's eyes widened, and he grinned: "Brother Dong will bring me a sentence when he hands over the government." ”
Dong Yu pushed Tuoba Yan and whispered: "Take a good look at people, you are indispensable." ”
"Eh, please okay with you. The warden Xu Ning took Tuoba Yan's face full of smiles, and captured alive the merits of the nobles of the northern region who had not been done for many years, Xu Ning was overjoyed, turned around and slapped the jailer who reported the news in the face, and scolded: "There are miscellaneous pieces with eyes and no beads, and I will talk about it next time I see it clearly." ”
Tuoba Yan, who was handed over by a group of officials of the Southern Dynasty, didn't even have the strength to be angry, and was extremely depressed, he originally slaughtered a village and caught a rare beauty in the world, and he didn't have time to be happy, I don't know where two boys from the Southern Dynasty who didn't know the depths came out, and killed all the soldiers who brought to spy on the military situation, not to mention, even the guards sent by his father couldn't beat them, and it was tragic enough to be captured alive. Even slashed twice thanks to Lao Tzu's urgency to dodge, otherwise he would go to the west with those few waste guards, these two bastards didn't even bandage the wound and tied Lao Tzu to the horse and ran with the horse, more than ten miles, almost not tired to death, finally didn't run away and fucking met a group of small officials of the Southern Dynasty who asked for merit by themselves, and Tuoba Yan, a soldier of this rank on weekdays, said to kill and kill, but now it has become a persimmon in their hands, let it be kneaded.
Under the push and shoving of a group of jailers, Tuoba Yan was sent to the prison, and some soldiers took off the rags that were blocked in their mouths and fed them with saliva, so no one cared about them, Tuoba Yan was angry and shouted: "Give Lao Tzu medicine, eat, if you starve Lao Tzu to death, you won't find out any news, the people of the Southern Dynasty of the dog day." ”

Yin Yamen, Hongyong Mansion.
Fu Yin Lu Zhen sat in the study, holding a letter and reading it repeatedly, Fu Yin has been worried recently, the war outside Tianmen Pass has been drunk for two months, the two sides have been deadlocked in two months, Qin Guan Army Division Fang Bochang sent three military intelligence orders, hoping that the counties and counties will send troops to aid the north, Xiongzhou Jinglu Yamen also issued a military order, from the city defenders of the city to allocate a total of more than 20,000 soldiers and equipment to help Tianmen Pass, so that the military situation at Tianmen Pass has been delayed, originally this news is a good thing for the people of Xiongzhou, but Lu Zhen is worried。
Xiongzhou and the north of the mountain and look at it, Tianmen Pass as the northern gateway of the Qianyuan Dynasty always experience the chaos of war, between the two countries is a vast mountain range, the people of the Qianyuan Dynasty call it the mountain, almost all are cliffs, impassable at all, a snow on the winter mountain over the knees, one step into the air is to fall into the abyss, but there are always a small group of wolves and tigers in the north who risk death to turn over the mountains into the land of Qianyuan, wandering in all kinds of deserted villages and villages to slaughter the people, this situation happens every year, but this year is particularly serious, especially in recent days, connected to the news that three or four mountain villages were slaughtered。
For those people who were slaughtered, Governor Lu didn't care, in his feeling that birth, old age, sickness and death were human nature, and those mountain and wild villagers deserved their lives if they died, and they couldn't complain about others, and if they weren't slaughtered by the people, they might also suffer some kind of misfortune.
These trivial matters Lu Zhifu is not worried, but worried about how to report these trivial matters to the superior yamen, these cheap orders he does not value, but those who are too guarded by the history of assassination, if the table is not handled well, it is inevitable to cause trouble for himself at the superior master, and then there is a sad future, the people who have recently committed the border are more unscrupulous than in previous years, half a month ago, there were actually people who sneaked into the palace Yin Yamen late at night and sent a letter.
The letter probably means that the people of the Bi people found a passable path under the Fenbi Mountain, and intended to march to Xiongzhou, if they can offer the city to meet each other, they can cross the Tianmen Pass in three days to take the entire Xiongzhou, and then slowly gnaw more than 100,000 Qin Guan troops, if they agree to dedicate the city for a month, the reply will be placed in the mountain temple outside the city, if they do not agree, they will wait for the northern tiger and wolf army to come to Hongyong Mansion, and the people of Bi also promised that if the city is dedicated, the official hat of the Yin official can be replaced with the six-beam crown of the second-grade master, and Lu Zhen moved his mind when he mentioned the official position。
Born in the imperial capital, he was ranked 34th in the imperial examination of the imperial capital, and he ordered a county order in Yehua County, in Yehua County for six years, he finally collected enough property to promote such a Hongyong Mansion Yin, this Mansion Yin said that it was a five-grade official, but only he knew how tired it was, and the buying and selling shops in the Hongyong Mansion City were almost the same, no matter the size as long as it was walking around the market, it had to pay the silver to the lord, there were three counties under the house, and the counties and counties were poor ghosts all year round, a little oil and water card could not be noted, not to mention that they had to allocate silver from the treasury to them, the mansion Yin bought by the lord with real money, the treasury was Lao Tzu's private treasury, and the silver was taken from Lao Tzu's private treasuryThinking beautifully, it is good to have slaughtered these counties by the people of Beibei.
In recent years, there are not no shops in the city who can't stand the looting and want to go to the county town to complain, they have all been forcibly pressed by the Lu Governor's Mansion, and they have died in a foreign country according to some charges of exile and confiscation, and the people in Hongyong Mansion dare not speak out, so they can only scold a big mouse in private, and these scoldings are nothing to do when they reach the ears of the Lu Governor's Mansion, this Lu Governor's Mansion doesn't care about these scoldings at all, this scolding is not worth mentioning compared to mosquito bites.
With a bang, the door of Fu Yin Lu Zhen's study was pushed open, and Master Ji Ziming forgot to knock on the door and rushed into the study with a happy face, shouting as he entered: "Master Gao Sheng." ”
Lu Zhen, who was holding the letter from Beibei, was struck by lightning, the letter in his hand was suddenly pressed, he stretched out his hand to cover the letter, forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and scolded: "Waste things, what is the panic and there is no etiquette?"
"The old man was promoted, and the doorman Dong Yu came to report and captured alive Tuoba Yan, the son of Tuoba Liu, the general of the Northern Expedition to the South. "Master Ji Ziming told the happy events in his heart and captured the nobles of the northern region, which is a rare great achievement.
"Beibi noble?" Fu Yin Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment, the strength in his hand loosened a little and raised some gaps slightly, Ji Ziming vaguely looked at the Beibi wolf head on the letterhead, a little stunned but very well disguised, just returned to normal in an instant.
Ji Ziming suppressed the fluctuation of his heart, and said with no change in his expression: "Exactly, Dong Yu and the two righteous men are waiting for the master in the second hall." ”

Chen Changge, Liu Yuanshan and the two girls were taken to the second hall of the Yamen of the Mansion by the official Dong Yu, the Yamen is divided into the lobby, the second hall and the inner hall, the lobby is the public court, the case is tried in the middle on weekdays, the second hall is also called the Yin Hall, most of them are the place where the Mingqin Zhiyuan Council guests, but it is also mostly used to try some indecent weathering cases, and the inner hall is the residence of officials and their families. Today's affairs are not suitable for the lobby and the inner hall, and the master Ji Zi Ming ordered Dong Yu to take a few people to the second hall, and he went to the back hall to invite the master.
The second hall of Hongyong Mansion is almost the same as the second hall of the ordinary yamen, a public desk, there is a black wooden stick holder on the public case, the pine crane is hung after the public case, four or five cranes live under the pine tree and live towards the sun, most of the officials are in order to take the noble meaning, if the prisoner is interrogated on weekdays, the table, chair and stool will be removed, today is a guest, there are officials to move the table and chairs, several people sit down in turn, waiting for the master Yin of Hongyong Mansion to come.
Outside the door, Master Ji Ziming shouted in a loud voice: "Master Fu Yin has arrived." ”
Chen Changge and a few people got up and bowed their hands, if they were not prisoners, they naturally didn't have to kneel and worship, Yin Luzhen of Hongyong Mansion walked in steps, sat behind the public case, and his voice was extremely solemn: "Young heroes are exempt from courtesy, sit down." ”
Fu Yin Lu Zhen was dressed in a five-grade white pheasant official uniform, not confused by his age and thin figure, with a thin beard at the corners of his mouth, his face was pale and his face was reduced, his cheeks were high and his eyes were deep, his face was thin and thin, and his face was slightly gloomy, and he said slowly: "Is it these four young heroes who captured the thief in the north?"
Liu Yuanshan stood up and said, "Lord Hui, my two brothers passed by the mountain temple outside the city and saw a group of people making trouble, captured their leader alive, and rescued the two girls. ”
Fu Yin Lu Zhen applauded, and asked the master next to him again: "Sure enough, the hero came out of the boy and transported the corpse of the man back?"
"The third class of the fast soap brought back the corpses, a total of ten corpses, nine men and one woman. ”
Fu Yin sighed slightly: "The two young heroes are really brave, but they can't receive the reward in the city, and the two of them have to go to Tianmen Pass and Qin Pass to receive the silver reward." ”
Chen Changge arched his hand and said: "The main reason for coming here is to send the two girls, the two girls were plundered by the people yesterday, and the two of us have something to do, so I can't escort them, and I bother the adults to send the girls home." ”
"Oh?" Fu Yin Lu Zhen raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on the cold and glamorous woman in the farthest distance, his face was shocked, and he suddenly felt thirsty in his heart, since ancient times, wealth and lust have not been separated, it is reasonable for Lu Zhifu to be so greedy for money and lustful, and his eyes were blazing and asked: "The two girls are Hongyong people?"
The girl nodded in response, "My uncle's family lives in Hongyong Mansion. ”
The cold woman cherishes words like gold: "Qiongzhou." ”
Listening to the cold voice, Governor Lu felt like a cat catching a deer in his heart, and subconsciously said: "Qiongzhou, it's okay, the girl can stay in the back hall, and the Japanese official will arrange a carriage and horse to send the girl to Qiongzhou." ”
For a while, everyone in the second hall looked at each other, how could there be such a rude official, even if he lived, he had to live in the pavilion, how could there be a reason for a woman to live in the back hall, they were all from Xiongzhou, and the reputation of Fu Yin Luzhen had long been publicized.
Chen Changge saw that Fu Yin's heart was uplifted, and he said sonorously: "It's just a trivial matter, so don't bother the adults, my brothers and I just happened to be on the way to Qiongzhou, so I can escort this girl there." ”
Governor Lu just reacted that his words were wrong, and for a while he said a little: "Ah... Ah, well, it's safe to have a young man escorting the girl. ”
Although the words were like this, a chill flashed in Fu Yin Lu Zhen's eyes.
'Good boy dares to do bad things to the master?'
For a while, Lu Zhen's mind was flying, this matter was in an uproar, if it was inappropriate to stay strongly, these two people were martial artists, and the soldiers in the house were afraid that it was not enough to resist, Tianmen Pass, thinking of Tianmen Pass, Lu Zhen was secretly happy in his heart.
"I won't keep a few more, and I'll write a letter to receive the reward later, and the young man can go to the military and political yamen to receive the reward. After saying that, Governor Lu wrote down a letter to receive the reward, and after stamping it with the prefect's seal, he took out a small seal from his bosom and stamped it on the letter, and a trace of hideous joy flashed between his eyebrows.
