Chapter 175: Robbed
"She said that the spices were too smoky, so I found a few kinds of tea leaves that I like to drink, and put them in this sachet."
"My sister-in-law is really an elegant person, and she is very compatible with Brother Li, and even embroidering a sachet is so good, she must be everyone's best girl."
"Hehe, you're really right, her family is a big family." Li Chongyan smiled and said: "You just don't want to go back to the imperial capital with me, or let your sister-in-law find a family for you, you will not be disappointed." ”
"I'm a rough person, where can I match what everyone is beautiful. A few days ago, Liu Dajia at the head of the village also said that if I practice martial arts every day, I will have to find a female butcher in the future, and the two of them will dance knives and guns together to live the best life. ”
"Liu Dajiao's dog's mouth, do you listen too? Isn't he still beating a bachelor himself? ”
The two of them were about to part, and they deliberately did not mention those sad ones, Cao Xiwen only picked out some interesting stories about the scoundrels in the market, and Li Chongyan also listened to them with relish. These are all things that can't be heard in the palace, and it must be good to turn around and change it into a joke to tease Zhu Zhijie.
In this way, a table of wine and a table of dishes were eaten from noon to evening, and both of them were already seven or eight points drunk. Li Chongyan stood up, pointed at Cao Xiwen and said dizzily:
"You kid, you're too stubborn, if you're ...... If you follow me back to the imperial capital, you will still be worried...... Still worried...... No future? You...... Do you know what I, I, I am? ”
Cao Xiwen and him have been together for a few days, but they actually guessed a few points. Although this young county master has a good temperament, but the habits of the gentlemen were really a lot at first, at the beginning of drinking a tea and eating a meal, there can be a bunch of exquisite, looking at it is an official eunuch's son, about how many generations of the family has been cultivated by officials to make such a tone between gestures.
"Okay, okay, you have a background, you have a great background, and you don't forget to blow it after drinking like this. Come, I'll help you. ”
Li Chongyan pushed Cao Xiwen away and muttered unconvinced:
"I blow? Do I still need to blow it? Don't you see how rich this Xinyang County has been since I came? Twice as much disaster relief money as anywhere else! You...... You know why? That's me, I went to the imperial capital to ask for it in person! As he spoke, he stumbled into the grape trellis and shook off a few leaves.
Cao Xiwen laughed when he heard this, and said in his heart, I know that there must be someone in your family who is an official in the court, otherwise you can be a county commander at such a young age? Eighty percent of them are also donated by family members.
Since ancient times, it has been common for all dynasties to buy and sell officials in private, and the Cangwu Kingdom has been peaceful for a hundred years, and it is the time when the hearts of the people are in high spirits, how can it be an exception.
However, Cao Xiwen felt that even if he was an official based on his family background, he could be regarded as a good official for the people. On the contrary, there are some people who are born poor and have gained fame, just because they have been poor since childhood, and once they are sent to the local area, they will let go of their hands and feet to scavenge the people's fat, which is called real hate.
Cao Xiwen helped Li Chongyan up and said with a smile: "Come on, my county master." It doesn't matter who you ask for the money, if you protect the people, I will recognize you. ”
Li Chongyan was unconvinced: "Hey, I really don't believe you when you listen to this, don't you?" You...... You're eye-catching. ”
"Hey, you're scolding me."
Li Chongyan was already very drunk, and as soon as he got up, he picked up another glass of wine on the table and poured it, and lowered his voice and sneered: "You...... You know, who is my father? ”
Cao Xiwen couldn't cry or laugh.
Father? There is only one person in this Cangwu country who can be called the emperor, who else do you ask? Then you are still a prince?
"Don't talk nonsense, be heard carefully, your head will not be safe
。 ”
Li Chongyan snorted.
"You don't believe it? Hmph, there is always a time when you will be convinced. If you don't go back to the imperial capital with me, I can find a way to get you over, you wait for me. ”
"Okay, you get me over, you can't walk anymore, I'll send you back to the yamen."
"Who says I can't walk? Don't follow me, aren't you going back to the imperial capital with me? Then don't follow me. ”
"Don't talk so much nonsense! I'll send you! After speaking, Cao Xiwen picked up a knife and pinned it to his waist by leaning against the chair. He is a person who practices martial arts, and he is used to not leaving his body, even if he is a little drunk, he will not forget it.
Li Chongyan became impatient: "You don't want to go back with me...... Go back to the imperial capital, don't follow me. Otherwise, you will send me all the way to the imperial capital. ”
Cao Xiwen is also a stubborn donkey temper, and after drinking, he hurriedly came up and said: "If you don't send it, you won't send it, anyway, I won't go to the imperial capital." ”
Li Chongyan was used to being cautious and arrogant, drunk and vigorous, and when he saw him like this, he turned his head and walked out. Before he could take a few steps, the voice of Mrs. Cao came from behind his head.
"Why did Master Li leave? Hey, why don't you send Master Li to Xi Wen? ”
"He has feet, what to give?"
As soon as he heard this, Li Chongyan became more and more angry, and stumbled out of the courtyard and walked away.
Mrs. Cao was anxious and said: "You kid, every time people send something delicious, you don't even send it when he gets drunk, so you can't even send it." ”
Cao Xiwen couldn't say the bitterness in his heart, it was not that he didn't want to send it, but when he came to say goodbye to his friends, he had to endure reluctance on the way back with him, wouldn't it be uncomfortable. Second, when he thought of his father in the imperial capital, he felt that his head was big, he had nothing to do at the moment, and he didn't want to go to school, so he hid as far away from his father as possible.
When Mrs. Cao saw him sitting there, she didn't move, and knew that she had no temper with him, so she sighed and turned around and went back to the house.
Here, Li Chongyan saw that it was getting late, and the shops on the originally lively street had been closed one after another, and there were few pedestrians on the road, so he thought that he had to go back to the yamen quickly. Unexpectedly, the soles of my feet were soft, and I walked three steps and slipped two steps, and I was helpless. A gust of wind blew in the face, blowing him straight to the core, and his stomach suddenly surged, and before he came back to his senses, he vomited out a large mouthful of yellow soup, and vomited so much that the temple of the five organs turned over.
It's easy to vomit clean, and I can't move my feet like a soft-footed shrimp. Li Chongyan looked up and saw a pine tree with a crooked neck next to him, the trunk was twisted and crooked, and he smiled: "Do you want to help me too?" He stretched out his hand and pushed the pine tree, and shouted, "Go!" ”
As he stumbled, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if something hard was against him. A faint voice came to my ears.
"Hugh will stir and cut off your head carefully."
It's obviously a young woman's delicate voice, but it's creepy to listen to.
Li Chongyan suddenly understood that there was a dagger on the back of his neck, and he was so frightened that he immediately woke up halfway from drinking, and shouted in his mouth: "Don't move, don't move." Don't move! ”
The woman frowned and said, "I can't move, it's up to you to decide." ”
"Yes, yes, that...... The heroine, please take care of herself, I don't move, I don't move. Li Chongyan said, but his legs did not obey the call, and they shook into chaff.
The woman suddenly smelled a sigh of shame, and when she looked at the ground, there was already a turbid current flowing down between Li Chongyan's legs.
She hurriedly ducked sideways, avoiding the earthworm-like trickle, and Rao was still a little stained on the tip of her shoe.
She couldn't help but be furious, and put away the dagger in her hand and slapped Li Chongyan twice in the face, and the shot was extremely fast.
Li Chongyan didn't know what to do, covered his face and cried: "Don't beat the female king, I have some silver if you want it." ”
"Who wants your money?"
"And what do you want?"
"I want to ask you something, and you answer me honestly, and I will let you go."
Li Chong stopped crying and asked, "Is it that simple?" What are you asking? ”
"Let me ask you, what robberies have happened around here lately?"
Li Chongyan looked at the woman in horror and shook his head. Only then did he see that the woman in front of him was dressed in a strange tight-fitting outfit, and even her head and neck were tightly wrapped in cloth, revealing only a pair of eyes.
"To say or not to say? Or do you want me to poke a few holes in you? The woman was ruthless, and her gaze was like frost.
"I really don't know, there shouldn't be one......" Li Chongyan cried with a sad face, thinking that in the past few months, where are the robbers, they have all been driven away by his own notice.
"You are a county magistrate, how can you not know if there is a robbery?!"
Li Chongyan was shocked, how did she know that I was a county magistrate. She knows that I am a county magistrate and still dares to arrest me, is she going to die?
"How do you know I'm a prefectural magistrate?"
"I've been following you since you left the county yamen, I didn't expect you to be able to eat so long in one meal!" The woman could not see her expression, but her eyes were full of disgust.
Li Chongyan thought, since his identity has been recognized, then ...... You have to put it on the score. So he argued: "It's good that I'm the county magistrate here, but there really haven't been any robberies here recently." With a blue sky like me, the people live and work in peace and contentment, where will there be any robbers? If there is one who is also outside the city, ...... with me It has nothing to do with me. ”
"Hmph, is it still the master of the blue sky? I've seen you take things from the people! Do you even say it? When the woman spoke, she didn't know when there was a soft rope in her hand, and a silver bell was tied to the end of the rope, and it smashed at Li Chongyan's head. only heard the sound of "ouch", and a large chunk of Li Chongyan's head immediately bulged.
"Ah, it's painful for me, the female king's subordinates are merciful, I really don't know what the robbery is, what do you want to know?"
"A few days ago, was there a man named Su Xiaochen who was kidnapped nearby? Can someone report to the official? ”
"Su Xiaochen?" Li Chongyan was stunned, forgot the pain in his head for a while, and asked, "You mean...... Ye Zhiqiu's nephew? ”
"You even know Ye Zhiqiu, and you dare to say that you don't know!" The silver bell in the woman's hand was about to smash again, and Li Chongyan was so frightened that he hurriedly picked up his head and shouted: "I...... I really don't know, I just heard that he disappeared when he crossed the Hanjiang River, and I really don't know anything else. He was robbed three months ago, and I have only been here in Xinyang County for more than a month. ”
The woman saw that his words were vague, and she thought that he must have hidden something, so she snorted coldly: "I also said that you vomited all the bad water in your stomach just now, and it seems that I have to help you vomit again." After speaking, the silver bell in his hand was thrown, aiming at Li Chongyan's lower abdomen.
