King Qin's eyes widened: "Ten taels of silver? Is the county order a beggar who asks for food, so easy to pass? Zhang Yi smiled: "These ten taels of silver are used by Weichen to live in the store and eat, and as for the county order, he doesn't need to give him a penny." ”

King Qin was a little unconvinced, although he knew the eight words "Su Qin's mouth, Zhang Yi's tongue", but such a big event, how could he do it without giving a penny of gifts? He still couldn't believe it: "Sir, this is a matter of success or failure, and it's child's play." ”

Zhang Yi didn't care: "Don't worry, the king can rest assured, Zhang Yi will succeed if he goes." Just wait for the good news. After saying that, he gave a salute and left.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yi took a sergeant to make a retinue and swaggered into Huayin City. He asked the sergeant to ask where the county office was, but he didn't go to the county office, and took the sergeant to wander around.

The sergeant was puzzled: "Sir, let's not go to the county office, what are we looking for in this city?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Naturally, we are looking for an inn, let's stay first and inquire about the situation." ”

But after passing a few inns in a row, Zhang Yi just looked at it, but didn't go to live. As he was walking, he suddenly heard a commotion on the side of the road, someone screaming in pain, and then there was a thud, obviously someone was being beaten.

When Zhang Yi looked at it separately from the crowd, there was an inn inside, and the signboard read: Wu's old store. At this time, there were two people beating one in front of the store, and the brocade dress who was beaten looked like a rich man, and the beaters were all dressed up as shop guys, but Zhang Yi could see that these two people had two strokes, and they had the frame of a martial artist.

The two guys kicked and beat each other, the brocade-clothed man screamed again and again, and most of the people watching on the side covered their mouths and laughed, and none of them stepped forward to dissuade them, as if they were very happy to see it.

At this time, I only heard a coquettish voice: "Okay, don't fight." The sound is delicate and crisp, like a freshly ripe pear, with a sweet taste. The two guys split up in two, and threw in a burden and smashed it on the face of the brocade man.

When everyone watched, a blue figure stood delicately on the ground.

Of course, this is a woman, who looks like she is about twenty-six or seventeen years old, with a pretty face tightly taut, apricot eyes, and peach cheeks with hatred, but when she is angry, she looks so beautiful.

She was wearing a blue flower jacket and a blue cloth robe, which looked like a blue lilac flower, elegant and pretty.

At this time, the beaten man on the ground got up with a hum, picked up the thrown burden from the ground, stroked his waist with one hand, and pointed at the woman with the other hand and scolded: "What a vicious mother-in-law, Lao Tzu...... Lao Tzu tore your mouth! ”

Saying that he was about to fight, the two guys were just about to stretch out their hands, and the woman in blue waved her hand: "No need, I'll come by myself." Seeing the brocade-clothed man pounce, she waved her left hand, clasped his wrist, and pointed outward, and then raised her right hand and snapped it...... Slapped the guy four times in a flash of lightning.

The woman in blue looked weak, but the strength in her hand was not small, and the guy was dizzy, and he sat back on the ground after a fall, and he didn't dare to scream anymore. The woman in blue clapped her hands: "You are a disciple, relying on two stinky money, bullying women, the old lady is not a girl in the green building, don't get out of ...... quickly"

The two guys also shouted: "Get out of here, or I'll break your hand, and see if you dare to be cowardly......"

The brocade-clothed man hurriedly struggled to get up, and ran away with the top handle.

Everyone laughed, and someone said: "Dare to bully our nine girls, it's really blind...... and some people echoed: "That's it, this Huayin ground, the county master can provoke it, and our nine girls can't be provoked......"

The nine girls glared: "You old men, you don't work properly, what are you doing idlely!" Get out of here......"

The crowd was not angry, but all laughed and walked away.

Zhang Yi looked at the sergeant who was in a daze: "Boy, see it, let's live here today." ”

The two of them shook their arms and walked to the store, the two guys finished beating people, and were about to go back, when they suddenly saw two people, the first one was as white as jade, a weak scholar, and the one followed by seemed to be Suicong, five big and three thick, with a fierce face. Two guys hurriedly came to greet them: "Two, stay in a hotel or eat?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Stay in the hotel." Then he swaggered in, and when he looked up, the woman in blue was standing behind the counter and counting the bills. He came to the counter, put five taels of silver on the woman's account book, and said, "Put it on the counter first." He said with two eyes staring straight at her.

The woman in blue raised her eyes and looked at him, and said in her heart that there was a pervert again, how to run away with Fang Cai, and throw the silver first when she entered the store. So he was not angry: "It's unfortunate that the guest master came, they are all full, there is only one firewood room, it is dirty, it can barely sleep, and the guest master can't live it." ”

Zhang Yi smiled: "Of course you have to live, it doesn't matter if it's dirty, as long as you smell the incense." As he spoke, he lifted his nose vigorously: "It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant." ”

The woman in blue glared at him, and the ledger snapped: "Come with me." ”

Saying that, he led the way in front, took Zhang Yi and the others to a side room, pushed the door and took a look, and the sergeant who came frowned, only to see that there were piles of wood and hay in a mess, and there were two beds on the corners, which were quite clean, and there were tables and chairs in the middle, and a layer of dust fell on them, and it seemed that no one had lived in them for a long time.

The woman in blue waved her hand: "Please stop." She calculated, a scholar like Zhang Yi must be a child of a rich family, where can she get used to living in this kind of house, she will have to get out of the house at a glance. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yi nodded again and again: "Not bad, shelter from the wind and rain, shelter from the cold and snow, a good place." ”

As he spoke, he entered the house, lay down on a bed, and stretched: "Comfortable......"

The woman in blue pursed her lips, and there was no way to do it. Zhang Yi pointed to the table: "Please trouble the girl to bring me some wine and dinner in a while." I still have something I want to ask the girl for. The woman in blue ignored him and walked away.

The accompanying sergeant asked, "Sir, we don't go to the county office, but we are messing around here, what are you going to do?" ”

Zhang Yi looked at the back of the woman in blue: "There are some ways for a girl to pass by, inquire about the news, and find her the most suitable." ”

After a while, the woman in blue came back again, holding a red lacquer tray with a pot of wine, four side dishes, and a few steamed buns. She wiped the table and chairs clean, put the wine and food on the table, then hugged the tray in her hand, and asked contemptuously, "What do you want to ask, master?" ”

Zhang Yi suddenly seemed to be a different person at this time, became serious, the gentleman got up, got out of bed and came to the woman in blue, and saluted respectfully: "Fang Cai pretended to be frivolous, the girl is not strange, in the next Zhang Yi, the bow is long, the strange is different, when I came to Huayin County, I have important business to do." ”

The woman in blue was a little uneasy, and bowed: "Childe smiled, you said that you had official business, dare to ask if it was from the government?" ”

Zhang Yi closed the door and pretended to be mysterious: "This matter is important, the girl must be cautious and don't tell others." We are not from the government, but from the people's army that has just been pacified. ”

At this time, the Qin army had already sent multiple detectives to inquire about the news, so Zhang He and Hong Chengchou entered Shaanxi to quell the bandits, and they all knew it.

The woman in blue was shocked: "You are thieves, what are you doing here?" She took two steps back.

Zhang Yi hurriedly smiled: "Girl, don't panic, I used to be a good citizen, and I rebelled because of famine. ”

The girl put a snack.

Zhang Yi asked, "I haven't asked the girl for her name yet...... The woman in blue replied: "My surname is Wu, and my name is Xinlan." She was the youngest girl in the family, the ninth, so they all called me Girl Nine. ”

Zhang Yi nodded: "Okay, Miss Xinlan, I'll tell you the truth, we have already surrendered and been pacified here, but I heard that the county order here is greedy for money and has scraped off the land, I don't know if it is or not." ”

Wu Xinlan glanced at him and added caution: "The county magistrate is very innocent, you said that he was greedy for money and scraped the ground, it was a rumor." ”

Zhang Yi smiled slightly: "A few days ago, I heard that the county commander's house was invaded by thieves, and the family property was looted, presumably so." ”

Wu Xinlan nodded: "There is such a thing, tens of thousands of thieves came from outside the city that day, and thousands of people were mixed in the city, if it weren't for the defenders desperately resisting, the city would have been breached." ”

It turned out that after Bai Qi and the others left, the county commander was injured, and the general was also disgraced, and wanted to report it according to the truth, but when he thought that if the truth was reported, he would definitely lose his position, so he exaggerated the facts, saying that tens of thousands of people had come from outside the city, and hundreds of people were mixed in the city.

In order to cover up their incompetence, the Ming army under his command talked more and more about the thieves, and in the end, they became outnumbered thieves, if it weren't for everyone's desperate fight, Huayin City would have been occupied by the people's army.
