"The Zhang family is finished." Zhang Yuanlong watched the fire in the Zhang family's house burn bigger and bigger outside, and couldn't help but kneel and sob, although his family was a small sect and was not welcomed, but after all, this was the ancestral house of the Zhang family, seeing that a fire was burned clean, his heart was really sad and unbearable.

Liu Ximing and the others sighed in their hearts when they saw the fire, and comforted Zhang Yuanlong for a while, Liu Ximing quickly arranged for some people to go to the township to see if they could save some people, and asked people to find some water to clean Zhou Liangcai.

"Ahem, cough, cough"

After working for a long time, a group of people finally woke up Zhou Liangcai, and the first thing he said when he woke up was: "Is this place a hell?" ”

Liu Ximing and the others were amused all of a sudden, and Xu Wei next to him smiled and said: "Sir, this place is still in Zhengyuan Township, and tonight I saw that the township was invaded by thieves, and Brother Ximing specially brought someone to rescue Mr. ”

Immediately, his voice became low and said, "It's just that the students and others are incompetent, and I haven't seen my wife and others." ”

"Ahem, cough, it's okay, today is a monthly holiday, and a few of them went back to my house."

Zhou Liangcai coughed while struggling to stand up, seeing that the countryside was full of ruins, his eyes were full of shock, he turned his head to look at Liu Ximing and other people, and saw that they were covered with stains, and there were still a lot of blood stains on many people, he asked Liu Ximing in disbelief: "Is it really that you are waiting to rescue me?" What about this thief in the country? ”

Liu Ximing and the others were relieved when they heard him say that his wife had returned to his hometown, and Xu Wei hurriedly replied for Liu Ximing: "It is indeed Brother Ximing who saved ......Mr.

Liu Ximing saw that Xu Wei told the details of tonight in detail, and attributed all the credit to himself, and was very satisfied with Xu Wei in his heart, now the effect is much better than saying it himself, and he just said modestly on the side: "Thanks to everyone's help tonight, I really don't dare to take credit alone." ”

Zhou Liangcai listened to Xu Wei with an incredulous face after saying how Liu Ximing and others used torches and other things to outsmart the thieves, and turned his head to Liu Ximing with admiration and said: "Because of the enemy's strategy, he is brave and strategic, and this famous general is also a talent, and he doesn't want the old man to be old, so he can teach this beautiful jade." ”

Liu Ximing buckled his head embarrassedly, and suddenly remembered that he was framed by Zhang Yuqing in collusion with the officials today, and hurriedly took this opportunity to tell Zhou Liangcai again.

Zhou Liangcai said angrily when he heard this: "It's lawless, you can rest assured, now that you have retreated from the enemy, plus you have saved everyone in the township, I will report to the county on behalf of you, now that the Zhang family has become a white land, no one will dare to do anything again." ”

Liu Ximing relieved himself, this was about the same as he had estimated before, otherwise why would he have to kill Zhang Yuqing.

Seeing that Zhou Liangcai was indeed fine, Liu Ximing hurriedly beckoned someone to take care of him, and he and others went to the ruins to look for the injured.

But he said that here in Fucheng, Li Yong and other officials suffered a loss here in Liu Ximing, and a group of people felt that it was really a shame, which miscellaneous person dared to treat the old man like this when he usually went to the countryside.

A few helpers urged the boatman to row back to the city, and they all wanted to quickly transfer troops to kill them, and the group only took two-thirds of the time on weekdays to return to the city.

In the previous battle, Li Yong and the others' clothes were torn in many places, and when they arrived at the dock, everyone on the shore saw the usual majestic official with such a gray face, and they kept laughing on the side.

Li Yong and the others lost their former majesty, and they all pulled their clothes to cover their faces, and they were even more angry in their hearts.

"Li Bantou, you are waiting for this to be like that, could it be that you can't sing today?"

The seven of them trotted all the way back to the county office with strange eyes all the way, and the two helpers at the door laughed when they saw this.

Li Yong was held all the way, and at this time it was the time when he was angry, and he slapped him and said, "Enter your mother's dog, don't you want an errand?" ”

Seeing that those idlers dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, he was a little angry in his heart, and turned his head to ask the other one: "Can the county be in the yazhong?" ”

"Yes, yes, the county is above the main hall."

Another gang saw that his companion was slapped in the face, and how dare he smile, and hurriedly replied.

Hmph, Li Yong heard the words and threw down the two of them and went straight to the main hall of the county government, and when he was about to reach the door of the main hall, he looked at the appearance of everyone, tore a few times to tear out the clothes of himself and a few other people, and slapped himself in the face, his tears immediately fell in pain, and he ran into the main hall with the rest of the people crying.

"County Zun, it's not good, you have to make decisions for the little ones, woo woo."

"Bastard, why is there a lot of noise in the hall? What are you waiting for? ”

"Flutter"

Zeng Shuyao, the magistrate of Nanchong County, was talking about business with Xie Chengzhou, the county magistrate, and several household scribes in the hall, and heard Li Yong and others shouting and ran in, and couldn't help but be angry, but he was only halfway through the words, and when he saw the situation of Li Yong and others, he couldn't help laughing all of a sudden, and several scribes at the bottom also snickered together.

Li Yong didn't dare to lose his temper at this time, so he had to pretend to be pitiful and said: "Big lord, the big thing is not good, the small ones were ordered to go to the township for business, and they didn't want the villagers to resist the order, and they even dared to beat the officials. ”

As soon as Zeng Shuyao heard this, he slapped the shocked wood on the case with all his might, and roared: "Who dares to do this, you will tell the truth as soon as possible." ”

Li Yong hurriedly talked about today's events in Zhangjiawan Village, Xie Chengzhou was just standing aside and listening, but when he heard the head of the team talk about the perpetrators, his heart moved, this is not the Liu Ximing who made "talented people from all generations of the country, and each has led the way for hundreds of years", after he returned to the city, he did not preach it everywhere for him.

After Li Yong finished speaking, Xie Chengzhou said to Zeng Shuyao: "County Zun, this Liu Xi's life is the person who made the 'talented people of the country' before, the previous tour of the county, the lower officials have seen his person, watching his words and deeds, it is not like a lawless person, it is better to summon him to inquire first, and then convict is not too late?" ”

Zeng Shuyao had already received Zhang Yuqing's request, thinking of the money he had received before, how could he let Xie Chengzhou intervene now, and immediately said: "Now that the facts are there, and there is a tragic situation of Li Yong and others, why bother to summon them to inquire again, as the so-called 'prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people', not to mention that this person is just a little talented." came, and ordered the arrest team to go to arrest the criminal. ”

Xie Chengzhou was blocked by him, and at this time, he saw that Zeng Shuyao had already given the order, so he had to keep silent.

Li Yong got the warrant stamped by Zeng Shuyao, and went to find Gao Hu, the head of the capture team.

Both of them were the leaders of the government service team, Gao Hu saw Li Yong's miserable situation, and listened to his words, and immediately became furious, and ordered all the men and horses to go to Zhangjiawan Village to kill.

"Boss Gao, take these thieves this time, let me break a few of their legs first." Li Yong gritted his teeth while walking with Gao Hu and the others.

Gao Hu laughed when he heard this: "Don't worry, even if you go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, brother, I will hold them for you, and you will be at your disposal at that time." Brothers, hurry up. ”

Unexpectedly, when they ran to the city gate, they happened to meet a knight rushing in from outside the city, shouting in a panic: "Urgent, urgent, the thief brigade has passed Pengzhou and is heading towards the city." ”

Li Yong and Gao Hu looked carefully and recognized this person as the patrol officer in the city, they both looked at each other and suddenly hesitated, Gao Hu said directly: "Lao Li, now that the thieves are coming, wouldn't it be a sheep to go out at this time, brother, I can't take these brothers to death, or let's talk about it in a few days." ”

Li Yong scolded in his heart, who the hell just patted his chest and said that he was going to get someone for me, bastard.

But he also knew that it was impossible for Gao Hu and the others to continue to dispatch in this situation, so he had to stomp his feet and said, "Damn, it's really bad luck, just let these puppies bounce for a few more days." ”

After a while, the entire city of Shunqing Mansion was alarmed, and the city was noisy with gongs and drums for a while, and the people were boiling, and the Shunqing Mansion and Nanchong County were all mobilized and sent people everywhere to defend at the city gate.

"By the order of the government, lock the city gates"

"Quick, go and send all the Ding Zhuang in the city, the county inspectors will lead the city wall to garrison, and all the officials of the government and the county government will go to the street, if there is anyone who takes advantage of the chaos, there will be no forgiveness."

At this time, the enemy is at present, how to defend the city can only listen to the prefect Zhang Licheng, Zeng Shuyao and the county government and other officials also went to the prefect's yamen to listen to the arrangement.
