At this time, the originally dark corridor was lit up with torches, and listening to the footsteps, there were at least thirty or forty people.

The leader was a pot-bellied, richly dressed greasy man, and he walked up to the shopkeeper, and the two of them didn't know what they were muttering.

"This person is the prefect of Ningchuan!" Meng Li looked at the movement below, his fists clenched angrily, and he couldn't wait to rush down immediately and flatten this court moth.

Meng Qiqi nodded, she was also angry.

In such a city of Ningchuan, where the people are poorly clothed and hungry, the prefect eats a big belly, you can imagine how much people's meat he ate and how much people's blood he drank!

The thirty or forty people, as soon as they entered the courtyard, dismantled the goods brought by Meng Qiqi and them very violently: "My lord, it's opened!" ”

The shopkeeper of the inn said on the side: "Lord Prefect, this group of people will directly charter the store as soon as they come, and drag more than a dozen cargo boxes, the grass people know that these people are coming from an extraordinary way, and after inquiring about it, they know that they are actually from Beijing, and they want to go to Xiao to trade, and they must have brought a lot of treasures, so the grass people quickly sent someone to report, and asked the adults to laugh, and continue to take care of the small shop in the future!" ”

The prefect nodded, raised his head slightly, like a proud fat rooster, and walked towards the goods surrounded by his subordinates.

"Take it out and show it to the official!"

A man dressed as a soldier climbed into one of the carriages transporting goods, stretched out his hand and dug it for a long time, but the more he dig, the more confused he became.

"What's wrong? It's hard to take a thing, can't you lift this thing by yourself? Come on, go a few more! The prefect said in his heart that it was nothing like gold, silver and jade, so one person couldn't lift it, and he beckoned a few people to go up to help.

The three people next to him hurriedly climbed up to help together.

As a result, the four lifted a quilt and looked at each other. The prefect's face had changed, and the shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "Big, my lord, maybe something good is hidden underneath, you wait." ”

As a result, one-bed, two-bed, three-bed...... I moved eight quilts, and I didn't see anything of value.

The prefect's face was already as black as the bottom of a pot: "Rummage through the other boxes!" ”

A quarter of an hour later, all the boxes were toppled to the floor, and what came out were a pile of useless bedding and pots and pans, and the most infuriating thing was that there were many broken stones inside.

The prefect turned his head and looked at the shopkeeper coldly: "Okay, Zhang San, you look at Meng Me, and say, did you hide everything!" ”

The shopkeeper was so frightened that his legs were weak, how dare he! Hurriedly explained: "This,,This, Lord Prefect, I don't know what's going on, but when they came to the store, it was a large ticket of 1,000 taels of silver, and the guards guarding the door also received 50 taels. ”

The prefect snorted coldly, remembering the one thousand taels of silver tickets handed over by the shopkeeper, shook his hand, and asked the shopkeeper to take him to the room.

On weekdays, in addition to the guards who make a car guard, the other guards will be guarding the door of Meng Li and Meng Qiqi, tonight Meng Qiqi deliberately let everyone go to rest, and the only two guards at the door also pretended to be sleepy, leaning against the door and falling asleep.

The shopkeeper couldn't help but have doubts, and wanted to say something, but was scolded by the prefect: "What are you doing slowly, people are already stunned, hurry up!" ”

The shopkeeper's heart was nervous, and he forgot to close everything he wanted to say, and the first thing he pushed open was Meng Qiqi's door.

A group went in and rummaged through the cabinets for a long time, but nothing was found.

The prefect was already so angry that he vomited blood at this time, snatched a knife from the hand of the person next to him and walked in the direction of the bed, he used the knife to pick open the quilt, but he never expected that there was actually a pillow under the quilt.

"Oops, it's a trick!" Although the prefect eats fat meat and big ears, his brain has not degenerated, and he reacted the moment he saw the pillow, and he hurriedly beckoned people to go out.

But will Meng Qiqi let him go? Obviously not!

The soldier who had been unconscious just now had no idea when he woke up, and surrounded the entire room with a knife, and those who were guarding the door were also subdued in an instant.

Meng Qiqi, Meng Li, and Yan Fei walked over leisurely.

"Lord Prefect, since you're here, why are you in a hurry to leave?" Meng Qiqi looked at the prefect coldly, but he was quite calm, and the shopkeeper next to him was already paralyzed, and the prefect was still facing the three of them fearlessly.

"Bold bandits, dare to kidnap their parents, do you know that this is a capital crime, if you are interested, let people put down their knives and arrest them, otherwise this official will desperately ask for an order and kill you!" The corners of the prefect's mouth sneered, calm and composed, and his eyes were as sharp as poisonous snakes.

Meng Qiqi chuckled, no wonder this prefect has been able to do evil in Ningchuan for so long, and he is safe and sound, this ability to fight a rake is really the pinnacle!

Meng Liqi's chest rose and fell violently, and he wanted to smash the prefect's pig's head with a stick, he pointed at the prefect and scolded angrily: "You are a dignified prefect, Ningchuan's parents and officials, you actually colluded with bandits and harmed the people, people like you should be cut with a thousand knives!" ”

Hearing the word "a thousand cuts", Meng Qiqi's breath was stagnant, her face became pale, and the cold sweat on her forehead began to come out non-stop, she thought that if she lived again, she could forget all kinds of things in her previous life, but these four words seemed to take her back to her previous life, to the day of a thousand cuts.

Her whole body hurts, even her breathing hurts.

The feeling of suffocation made her dizzy, her legs weakened, and the whole person stumbled.

Yan Fei sensed that something was wrong with Meng Qiqi, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her, seeing that her face was pale like a ghost, a strong worry rose in his heart, and he asked in Meng Qiqi's ear in a deep voice: "Seventh Princess, what's wrong, is it uncomfortable?" ”

Meng Qiqi came to his senses, and when he saw Yan Fei looking at him worriedly, he reluctantly pulled out a smile and shook his head: "It's okay, maybe I haven't rested well." ”

Even Meng Qiqi himself was weak in what he said, and Yan Fei didn't believe it anymore.

"Okay, you little thief, you dare to slander the court officials, and the crime is added to the first degree! If you put down the butcher's knife today, the official can still take a light sentence on you for the sake of you being lost, otherwise, you will wait to be exterminated! The prefect put his hands behind his back, full of confidence that made Yan Fei suspicious.

Yan Fei pulled Meng Li behind him, frowned and looked at the prefect, and after a while, he suddenly snatched a knife, flew towards the prefect, put the knife on his neck, and said coldly: "Don't think I don't know your tricks, if you want to get out alive, it's best to stuff those thoughts back into your stomach!" ”
