In the fourth year of Yonghui (653 AD), on the third day of the second month, in the evening.

In the backyard study of Jinhua Avenue Judicial Participation Mansion, Wu Kang was sitting in danger, checking the results of yesterday's cleaning, and gradually smiled, and opened the memory mode outside the world.

Yesterday, I cleaned the street of the gambling house and learned that the nurse who involved Princess Gaoyang was overjoyed. Listening to Du Mei's shouting again, he let himself be cut all over the house, and his heart was even more excited. first beat him with a stick, and when he was dying, he was put into the Wuzhou prison and locked up with the perverted criminal.

The money collected by the ten gambling houses gathered in the main hall of the Golden Hook Gambling House and piled up into a small mountain, causing a strong visual shock. The clerk of the judicial yamen, who can write and calculate among the three guards, set up a temporary audit team, with Lao Su, the head of the dog-headed army, as the team leader, and counted the amount of stolen money in detail.

Select henchmen from the three guards, plus thirteen bodyguards, and set up an inspection team, with Xiucai as the captain. Enter the treasury to be on duty, closely monitor the audit, and put an end to corruption in the audit team. The bad handsome Jiang Da Niu, the militia leader Yu Qi, led people to set up a patrol, and those who were close to the treasury were killed.

Cheng Jiulian, the head of the Yawei team, led his law enforcement team to deal with the gamblers involved in the case and the casino staff in accordance with the law. Thirty-eight of them had gambling money of more than 2 per capita and were all escorted to the judicial yamen and placed in judicial prison.

No more than two or five, and the specific situation will be treated on a case-by-case basis. Those who have no eyes, because of violent resistance to the law, have already been beaten unconscious, if they knock on a hundred boards again, they will have to die. Therefore, these people all left Dongming Avenue and notified their families to claim it.

Those who are able to breathe are assessed for physical condition. Those who are in good health and in good spirits stand in a line and wait, and a hundred boards are indispensable; Those who are not in good health and are mentally depressed, ranging from 20 to 50. The screening work was completed, and the law enforcement team escorted them, lined up in a long snake formation. The hands of the people in the back are on the shoulders of the people in front, like an eagle grabbing a chicken.

Wu Kang specially explained that he respects human rights and privacy, and shows his ass in public, which is immoral. Therefore, it was particularly gracious, the gamblers were dressed and punished, and the board went down, and the roar resounded throughout Wuzhou City. After the law enforcement is completed, all Dongming Avenue will be abandoned.

The propaganda group was dispatched, beating gongs and drums to walk the streets and alleys, and read out the advertising slogan: In order to protect the peace of Wuzhou, save the gambler's family, and return Wuzhou to a prosperous future. Qingtian Thorn Shi Cui Gong approved, and Wu Gong led the team to eradicate the Dujia Hutong gambling house. Ladies and gentlemen, see if the man is at home, go to the south gate to look for it, and hurry home. If the curfew is not pulled, it will be punished by 20 boards...

The transport brigade scraped the floor, tables, chairs, porcelain, toilets, urinals, etc., and pulled away everything that could be pulled, as if locusts were crossing the border. On the school field in front of Wuzhou Yaqian, the auction team is divided into categories. Dice cards and other gambling equipment will be destroyed in person on the spot; Tables and chairs, etc., jumping prices are auctioned.

Ten texts for a large square table, five for a long chair, three for a toilet, two for a large porcelain bowl... Good guys, they were snatched up by the masses in an instant. The common people applauded, praised Cui Gong Qingtian, praised Wu Gong Qingguan, and the show effect was quite good.

After the money pile was counted, everyone including Wu Kang was stunned. More than 3,700 guan, which can be used for a family of ten and save money for 3,000 years. Wu Kang estimated that this was the savings of the Ten Gambling Houses for many years, and it was served by himself.

Traditionally, the money weighed seven catties and 25,000 catties of copper, and more than a dozen ox carts had to be sent to pull it, and it was impossible to hide people's eyes and ears, and it was even more impossible to embezzle all of them. Eating alone is not his style, so after careful consideration, he decided that the audience should be evenly drenched in rain and dew.

Gather all the team members and start the spoils sharing meeting. Those who participate in the action will be rewarded with two benefits per person; The subordinates who did not participate in the three guards were rewarded consistently; The military advisor Lao Su, the bad marshal, the head of the guard team, the prison guard and the leader of the civilian team, each with 20 runs.

The scene was thunderous, and the team members smiled and saluted. Sitting in a row to divide the fruits, Wu Kang smiled, handed the wrapped copper coins to the team members one by one, and said a few words of encouragement. At the end of the small distribution, his face stiffened with laughter.

Send everyone to collect the team, keep forty henchmen, and wait for the curfew to come, and then divide the remaining 3,000. Confessed to Jiang Daniu, sent someone to the Ministry of Environmental Sanitation, set up ten ox carts, brushed twenty dung buckets, and acted as a temporary cash truck.

Cui Yixuan is the number one and must send five hundred; Lu Lu, who is a military veteran, is about to retire, so send 200 pensions; The commander made the old enough to be interesting, and also sent two hundred; Two records, three in the military, and Hua Rong, a medical doctor, each with a hundred.

At about eleven o'clock in the evening, all the above people were delivered, and the remaining one thousand and a half, thinking about how to divide them. The three hundred were counted first, and as the seized stolen money, they were temporarily sent to the judicial yamen, and tomorrow, together with the action report, they were handed over to the Sihu yamen for confiscation.

Then count out two hundred and send them to the old Wei Mansion where the priest joined the army. Although Lao Wei is not a thing, his son Wei Qinghua is interesting enough, and he made a special trip to inform him: The backstage of the Du family is Princess Gaoyang.

There are still a thousand or two runs left, all of them pulling their own homes? Still unrealistic! The six major military members are on an equal footing, and they really can't be offended. Even if he is promoted to the rank of secretary and join the military, his work depends on their support. The more Wu Kang thought about it, the more depressed he became, the old foxes teamed up to trap me and gave them money, which was too aggrieved.

Two hundred per person, send them to their own homes first, and take care of them for a few days. Arrange for the seals to be opened and sealed, and the ten gambling houses are sealed. The seal was sixty minutes long and fifteen wide, and was crossed over the door seam. One book: Wuzhou Judicial Yamen Seal; One book: the second day of the second month of the fourth year of Yonghui.

At three o'clock in the morning, I went back to sleep, and went back to work in the yamen at dawn, and soon felt the pressure.

Sihu joined the army and Lao Sun took the lead, the clerk slammed the desk, and complained in a loud voice: The top ten gambling houses were cleaned, 300 gambling funds were seized, and the two fools were cheated? Erlang, you are not kind, you can fill your own pockets, but you can't be too ugly to eat. Don't say anything, spit out a few hundred more times, don't make it difficult for Uncle Sun.

Wu Kang smiled and complained secretly: Originally, according to the procedure, the household and the judiciary acted together, the legal office was responsible for arresting people, and the household office was responsible for statistics. But you, an old horseman, don't dare to offend the Du family, and don't dare to participate in the action. There's nothing to say, the stolen money is three hundred, love it or not!

This confrontation ended in Wukang's failure, and Lao Sun didn't want his face, and threatened not to leave without giving money. Wu Kang was so helpless that he took out the bill and confessed the whereabouts of the copper money. The meaning is obvious, if you are not satisfied, let's divide it again.

Knowing that he was divided into 200, Lao Sun smiled and immediately said: The seizure of 300 stolen money is completely reasonable, and the owner of the gambling house is not stupid and will not put too much money. In front of Wu Kang, he took out the big seal of the household office and stamped it on the seized documents. In the end, I strongly demanded that I go to withdraw the money in the afternoon, and I reached an agreement.

As soon as the front foot left, the old grandson of Sicang came on the back foot, the same routine, the same complaint: I said Erlang, the Du family's backstage is hard and ruthless, and it is easy to offend. The head of the family, Du Qiming, came to me and demanded the immediate release of Sun Mei and compensation for the losses of the Du family. He is a big taxpayer, and my uncle can't stand it, so you can watch it.

Wu Kang knew that this was all nonsense, I smashed his field, the pressure was on me, and it was a matter of closing the warehouse? The two of us are at the same level, even if the Du family puts pressure, they will look for Lao Cui Lao Lu, which onion are you? I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, put out the bill for the spoils, and send him away.

I didn't do anything else all morning, dealing with five old foxes, and I was dizzy. The so-called afternoon withdrawal of money is just a perfunctory excuse, not to take care of ten days and a half months, sorry for myself, and sorry for your dirty thoughts.

At work in the afternoon, the atmosphere was much more harmonious, and those colleagues who had arrived in the account came to visit, and a wave of business blew each other, and the beauty went away. In the end, Lao Lu came over and brought interesting news: Du Qiming, together with the nine major households and the families of the gamblers in prison, went to visit Lao Cui's house, and came out with a sad face.

After saying this, Lao Lu also expressed his concern, and the Du family had already sent his subordinates to Chang'an on a fast horse to complain to Aunt Du Mei. Wu Kang was noncommittal, and comforted Lao Lu in turn, saying that everything was under control. It's not me who is unlucky, it's the Du family, let's wait and see.

sent Lao Lu away, and waited until the next office, but he didn't wait for Lao Cui. When I got home, I was going to visit, but I thought about it or forget it. The old fox has a clear stance and stays out of the matter. Wu Kang couldn't help but wonder, the reason why Lao Cui agreed to sweep the gamble was to test Wu Zhaoyi's energy and my weight in Zhaoyi's heart, right?

If the wind and waves are calm, it means that Sister Wu can be a backer. If the court condemns the crime, Lao Cui will also keep me safe and blackmail wine shares at the same time. But old fox, your wishful thinking is destined to fail. I'm a traveler and know the direction of history, so I don't need Sister Wu to make a move this time!

Ending his reverie with a smile, he saw that the hour was time for dinner, and got up and left the study. Stretch in the doorway, shake your head and yawn.

Suddenly, the door opened, and I felt that it was dark in front of me, and then there was a bang, and my face was hit by the door panel. His eyes were full of stars, his steps were staggering, hot water gushed out of his nasal cavity, and he heard Cui Xiaoqing shouting: "Erlang is bleeding, come quickly..."

Lying on the Taishi chair, his face parallel to the roof, his hand patted his forehead, and his tears were sour: "I said Cui Xiaoqing, let's be a lady, what are you doing in a hurry?" What kind of iniquity have I had? Hurry up and look at my nose, is the bridge of the nose crooked? ”

Cui Xiaoqing wiped her nosebleed and blamed herself: "It's all my fault that I'm not good, I shouldn't be angry with you, and I shouldn't ignore you." You too, manly husband, can't you take the initiative to apologize? Naïve man, in order to make me worry, in order to let me take the initiative to find you, as for offending the Du family, as for making such a big noise? ”

"What do you know... No, absolutely not, I'm not so naïve", like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Wu Kang got up and said angrily: "Gambling and drug addiction are both social tumors, both of which will harm the people and must be severely cracked down." ”

"Okay, okay, lie down, you're bleeding again", Cui Xiaoqing broke his head and continued to wipe the blood. The servant came over with a copper basin, Xiaoqing wrung out the hot towel, put it on his forehead, and sighed: "Anyway, it's all my fault." Lu Liuniang's vixen, let's get married immediately, she still has to intervene, shameless! ”

Wu Kang thought that scolding was not good, and he didn't dare to defend himself, so he simply shut up.

Cui Xiaoqing continued to nag: "What to do now, the saint loves Princess Gaoyang very much, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog." My cousin will help you with good words, even if the saint does not condemn the crime, he will reject the recommendation. Our record is in the military, there is absolutely no hope, throwing away a wine stock for nothing, hey..."

Wu Kang was noncommittal, looked at the tangled little face, and comforted: "Xiaoqing don't worry, I can't run away from the military, and the saint will not be disgusted with me, and will pay more attention to me." You don't need my cousin to go out, let's do it ourselves, come here with your ears..."

After a burst of soft words, Jiu Niang was stunned first, then her face flushed, and she said excitedly with her hands on her cheeks: "Great, it's too timely." Erlang withstood the pressure, he couldn't release people in advance, and when the holy decree arrived, we would settle the account with the Du family. Du Mei's toad, and he pestered me, you have to be a daughter-in-law... The daughter-in-law is angry! ”

"That's a must, the toad wants to eat swan meat", Wu Kang swore that he felt that the nosebleed would not flow, sat up straight and said, "However, I don't want to do too much." As a last resort, I don't want to fabricate that crime, the lethality is too great. ”

"O woman's kindness! To deal with the enemy, it is necessary to kill directly. How many times have you said that you just don't listen", Jiuniang rolled her eyes and began to babble again.

The voice became smaller and smaller, and he suddenly smiled playfully: "Erlang, we have been in the cold war for seven days, and people want to... Hurt each other. ”

"Oh, I'm afraid you won't succeed, come to war!"

I don't know how long later, the sky was dark, and hurried footsteps sounded outside, and a voice like smoke came: "Lang Jun is not good... Yikes! Si Cang Sun joined the army, Si Hu Sun joined the army, Si Bing Qin joined the army, and he was driving the car with people, blocking the door of our house. ”

I'm sure I'm here to pull the money, and there's no door. Wu Kang wiped away his saliva and snorted coldly: "A few old foxes, colluding with me, there is a risk of not seeing people, and there is a swarm of bees." Within ten days and a half months, Hugh wanted to take the money, so he said that I was not there and sent them away. ”

Ruyan turned around, first saluted Jiu Niang, and then reported in a low voice: "No, Langjun, the slave said it, but they don't believe it." Qin Senjun said, when you just left the government, he sent someone to follow, knowing that you were at home. ”

Wu Kang was dumbfounded, Lao Qin Te is not a thing, for the sake of two hundred guan, he actually sent someone to follow me.

Jiu Niang put away her messy hair, blinked and said, "Erlang is right, you can't give money easily, it will make them itch for a few days." Otherwise, leave through the back door and take refuge in my house. When the decree arrived, they did not dare to ask for money by borrowing the courage of the two of them. ”

It's a good idea, it can not only avoid debts, but also help me and me. Wu Kang immediately agreed, pulled her away, and before she left the room, Xiaocui hurriedly ran over: "Lang Jun is not good, King Sigong joined the army and blocked the back door of our house." ”

"Lang Jun, I'm very good, don't talk nonsense", Wu Kang glared at her twice, frowning. The four old foxes don't want their faces for money! I know your wishful thinking, in your opinion, I offended Princess Gaoyang, at least lose my official position and resign. When the official letter comes, your money will be wasted.

First, a colleague, I lost my official position and asked for money, which didn't fall into the ground, and my reputation was greatly damaged; Second, even if you are shameless, you can't get any money. I'll hide in the Assassin's Mansion, you don't dare to make trouble with Lao Cui; Third, I think I want to repay the debt, other colleagues gave it, and Lao Wei also gave it, why didn't I give it to you?

Most importantly, 200 is not a small number. The six major military members are under the eight grades, with an annual salary of 18 yuan, 60 yuan of rice, and 7 yuan of servant subsidies, adding up to about 37 yuan. Two hundred times for nearly six years, can make the old fox pull down his face.

With the heart of a villain, I really want to smoke them. I'm a donkey, and the more fierce I push, the more I won't give it. Jiu Niang is right, when the holy decree arrives, it will be given to you, and you don't dare to ask for it. Now the back door is also blocked, what should I do?

At this time, Wu Lan reported that several soldiers took the lead, and the subordinates did not dare to stop them, and they had already broken in. Wu Kang almost wanted to go wild, look at the high courtyard wall, the ladder at home is not so high.

Jumping to her feet in hatred, Xiaocui said cowardly: "A few days ago, there was a hole in the east wall, and there was always a dog drilling into our house. I asked Erhan to block, he happened to be sick, and he didn't have time, or he didn't drill..."

The atmosphere instantly stiffened, Jiu Niang glared directly, and a murderous aura swept over. Xiao Cui cried in fright, hanging her head and trembling. Wu Kang was also angry, this unlucky Nizi, don't talk if you can't speak. Just say that there is a hole, why do you explain it so clearly?

There is no other way to do it, Jiu Niang gave an order, and the girls were in a hurry to change him into black night clothes. Before coming to the dog hole, the heart was cool and cool, and the dignified eight-grade official, in order to avoid debts, drilled the dog hole, which was too stumbling.

Sigh and grit your teeth, send the waist knife out first, and probe the waist drill. With his hands on his shoulders, he drilled his upper body out, but his butt was stuck. Wu Kang screamed, and the girls were in a hurry, hugging their legs and pushing their buttocks out.

The card is tight, and he can't push it out and pull it back, so Jiu Niang stomped his feet angrily, complaining that he was big. It's a whole thing, and I don't want to be big. In the middle of the struggle, two bodyguards ran over, looking at the situation in front of them and directly stupid, what is the boss doing in the dog hole?

Wu Kang scolded: "Want to be angry? Pull me out! Oops, tap... You two bastards, do you want to hurt me to death? Don't push it inside... You two use knives to pry off the bricks that are stuck in me. Be careful... Don't hurt me. ”

suffered the boss's crime, finally got out of the dog hole, and stepped on dog shit. Quietly poking his head out of the corner, there were several ox carts parked at the gate, and the old fox was nowhere to be seen, so it was estimated that he had broken in. I can't help but look at my face with contempt, as long as you can't see me, you can't do anything. Want money? There are no doors!

Drill alleys away from the avenue and take a detour to the Assassin's Mansion. The goal of the three people is too big, in case their whereabouts are exposed, the old fox with no skin and no face can't say that he can't go to make trouble with Lao Cui. After pondering for a moment, he instructed the bodyguards: "Don't follow me, you give me the hat." ”

The bodyguard did not dare to disobey, obediently took off the hat, and walked quickly out of the alley. Wu Kang hung a horizontal knife on his waist, wore a hat and tied a rope, turned his head to look around, and found nothing abnormal. Cui Xiaoqing was entangled by the old fox, and she couldn't get out for a while, so let's go back to the Shifu first.

I made up my mind to take a step, and at the moment when I was about to leave the alley, a figure flashed in front of me. Seeing that the figure is a woman, it is still very familiar. Quickly searching his mind, his eyes widened, Chen Shuozhen's seven fairies, how did she appear in Wuzhou?

Quickly ran out of the alley, the figure disappeared into another alley, ran over and quietly followed. Half an hour later, I realized that the other party had discovered me and deliberately took me somewhere. Or a good game, lure me into the bait.

There are only two ways, either follow them, or move the rescue troops and start a city-wide search. The brain turned quickly, and it was decided to continue to follow, the cost of moving troops to search the city was high, and it may be nothing.

Wu Kang sneered again and again, I am not a weak scholar, but an ancestor who kills people. Let's see, what tricks you are playing, if you really can't slip away.
