The framed housekeeper immediately retorted: "Xiao Zhu, don't talk nonsense! I have been in the Wei Mansion for 30 years, how can I allow you to slander casually? ”

Knowing that he couldn't say it, he changed the topic and talked to the woman about Wei Gongzi lying on the ground, and asked him to explain what was going on?

The housekeeper, who couldn't answer the situation for a while, had to reply, "The old man just heard the son's cry, and as soon as he came out, he saw the son and the woman lying on the ground. ”

Everyone doesn't believe this explanation, firstly, because it is the night fasting time, secondly, because Wuqing County has been ordered by the Liukou Shunjun to be strictly defended, and it is impossible for any martial arts masters to come in, and thirdly, Wei Mansion is also a well-known family in the county, and the family members are all trained, and it is impossible not to find anything unusual, so everyone thinks that the housekeeper murdered the son and wants to arrest him and report to the official.

The next day, there were people beating gongs and drums in the streets, shouting, "Oh! Come and take a look, there are good treasures; The Hetian jade of Hamiwei in the Western Regions, the cicada catching map of the Tang Dynasty circulated by the Shaanxi Chengxuan Political Envoy, and the various jade artifacts that are prevalent in Gyeonggi, in short, our store has everything! ”

With the clamor of the few people on the street began to gather, two middle-aged men who were dressed fairly well pointed with fans in their hands, and the treasures of the store written on the signboard were all there, and said, "I said you really have everything?" It can't be a lie, right? ”

The seller replied, "Look, is that still a fake?" There is no charge for fakes! ”

With the mentality of giving it a try, the man led a few people in to see the treasure, and sure enough, after selection, he found that the treasure looked like the real thing? Even the former Wuqing County retirement show praised after watching it: "This is a rare treasure!" ”

attracted onlookers, rich children bought one after another.

The soldiers of the Yang Village Inspection Division at the gate of the city here inspect the passers according to the usual practice, and those who are neatly dressed and quiet will be given passage as long as they show (road guides), and the five big and three rough people and the swordsmen of the rivers and lakes must be checked, especially those who suffer from cough and the old, weak, sick and disabled are almost directly stopped by the soldiers and are not allowed to enter the city, strictly preventing death checks for fear of bringing the epidemic into the city.

Among them, there were many poor people with face towels on their heads, and they walked towards the city gate with baskets on their wrists, and they were immediately stopped by the soldiers of the Inspection Department and asked, "Where are you from the untouchables?" This road is not passable and goes elsewhere! ”

As he spoke, he also asked the soldiers to step forward and push down a few old men, just so that Ma Wei, who was riding a horse galloping behind and pulling the reins, saw this scene, and when he saw a soldier wearing Ming costumes, he calmed down, dismounted and stepped forward to help an old man on the ground, and said to the officials, "How can this be!" Anyway, they are also the people of the Ming Dynasty. ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers of the Yang Village Inspection Division at the gate of the city laughed and said, "Oh, then who are you?" ”

I saw Ma Wei get up and take out the token on his waist and said, "I am the general flag of the left guard of Qingzhou in the Ming Dynasty: Ma Wei, let it go quickly!" Otherwise, don't blame the official for being polite. ”

As soon as the words fell, they saw Wu Junzhen, Liu Ruilin, and Yao Qiuyue, and the three of them took the soldiers to escort the county lord Zhu Youlan in the carriage to arrive, and Wu Junzhen also greeted Ma Wei What is the situation? Seeing this, Ma Wei directly moved His Royal Highness the county lord out, and said, "Everyone have listened carefully, the people sitting in the carriage are not ordinary people!" It is His Royal Highness the county lord who is the daughter of the king of Tai'an County, and he still does not kneel down and bow. ”

Who knew that the soldiers of the Inspection Division ignored it after hearing this, and the leading inspection envoy of Mingyang Village: Qiu Sheng, was about to step forward to stop him, but he saw the soldiers behind him muttering in a low voice, "Lord Zuo Shouyu Qianhu is here!" ”

Everyone immediately turned around and saluted their superiors, and Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu, who walked in front of Ma Wei, glanced at him, then looked at the carriage and asked, "Who is sitting here?" ”

The inspection envoy of Mingyang Village hurriedly came up to his ear and reported that it was His Royal Highness the Lord of Daming County, and learned that it was the daughter of the county king's clan, so that this Lord of the Left Guard Imperial Thousand Households did not dare to be careless! He weighed it in his heart, and immediately saluted: "Wu Qingwei is guarding the thousands of households: Huang Ze, welcome His Royal Highness the county lord into the city, if the discipline of his subordinates is not strict, if there is any neglect, please forgive His Royal Highness the county lord!" ”

At this time, Ma Wei asked him why he forbade the poor people to enter the city. He proposed that it was to prevent the epidemic, and Ma Wei and Wu Junzhen immediately said that they could be cured, and asked Ming Wu Qingwei to guard the left guard of the imperial thousands of households to let the people into the city was approved, and he also asked the county lord Zhu Youlan to go to his house to sit in the guest to fulfill the friendship of the landlord.

But the faces of the soldiers of the inspection department next to them were not very good-looking, and some of the soldiers also reminded them, "Lord Zuo Shouyu Qianhu, how should the chief minister explain it?" ”

I saw that Ming Wu Qingwei Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu didn't speak, but just silently thought about his plan in his heart?

At this moment, there is a Wei family on the street of Caishikou with a housekeeper with five flowers tied up and walking in the direction of Yamen, and on the way it happened to pass by Wu Junzhen and his party, Ma Wei pulled the black and red horses and pointed around the street, and said: "Brother Wu is now in this Wuqing County, if you are moving forward, I believe it will not take long to reach the capital!" ”

Ma Wei, who was patronizing and talking, accidentally bumped into the Wei Mansion family: Xiao Zhu, he glanced at Ma Wei with hateful eyes, and scolded, "You don't have long eyes when you walk?" Didn't see it.... ”

Before the words fell, the soldiers of the Thousand Households Institute stepped forward and pulled out their swords and said, "Dare to be unreasonable to the people, and dare to be unreasonable to the Lord of the General Banner!" Take it down for me. ”

The Wei Mansion housekeeper who was escorted: Ding Jinnan, hurriedly shouted "Adult, the little one is wronged!" It is he, he will frame me. ”

As soon as Wu Junzhen heard that there was an unjust case, he directly asked people to take them to the county government hall, and also used his token of the Ming Tianjin Right Guard to try a hundred households to Mingwu Qingzhi County: Miao Cen, the demonstration and intimidation learned that the county was panicked and was about to stretch out his finger, and the entourage sent by the Ming Wu Qingwei Left Guard Yu Qianhu just now walked to Mingwu Qingzhi County and whispered a few words in his ear.

Subsequently, Mingwu Qingzhi County hurriedly saluted and said: "Xiaguan greets the Lord of the Hundred Households!" I don't know why I didn't notify the hundreds of adults when they came? Let the official be ready! ”

Wu Junzhen didn't want to listen to these polite words, and went directly to the topic to listen to his interrogation of the case, after understanding that the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion was suspected of the murderer after hearing the shouts of Wei Gongzi, and Ma Wei thought it was unlikely, because if the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion was the murderer, he could have escaped the scene after killing Wei Gongzi, looking for a frame-up for the dead ghost instead of crying all the time?

Wu Junzhen thinks that the murderer is very likely to be hiding in the Wei Mansion? Or is it a homicide case perpetrated by Wei officials? It's just that the butler is a substitute for the dead?

But Liu Ruilin wanted to go to the scene and see what clues could be left?

The Ming Wu Qingzhi County above the public court felt that it was actually not so troublesome, and if he wanted to know that the murderer was directly tortured, he immediately asked the officials to bring up the tiger chair, put the housekeeper to sit on it and put a brick under his feet, and the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion felt that it was okay, but his face was sweating!

Then he put another brick and saw that the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion was not very calm, and soon added another brick to directly make the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion cry out in pain, and hurriedly shouted injustice, Wu Junzhen, Ma Wei, and Liu Ruilin on the side were not happy, and asked the magistrate to stop listening to the prisoners with torture.

As soon as the steward of the Wei Mansion was put down, a soldier came in outside the public hall and saw Yao Qiuyue, a woman sitting and drinking tea, and the soldiers asked, "What about His Royal Highness the County Lord?" We, the Lord of the Left Guard, have prepared a banquet and invited to dine in the house. ”

Originally, she wanted Zhu Youlan to stay away from Wu Junzhen, so without saying a word, she pointed directly to the cloth and asked the soldiers to take Zhu Youlan away, so Zhu Youlan was invited by the soldiers to have dinner in Huang Qianhu's mansion.

The soldiers also came in to feast on Wu Junzhen and Ma Wei, Wu Junzhen was not interested in this, but Ma Wei was a little hungry! went with the soldiers, leaving only Wu Junzhen, Liu Ruilin and Yao Qiuyue, and even the accompanying guards all followed behind His Royal Highness the county lord to protect.

Soon it was noon, and in a village ten miles away from the military rations of Tuntian, a raging fire was burning in a village outside the city, and everywhere you could see were troops wearing sticky hats and armor, armed with knives and spears, searching from house to house, as if they were robbing food and property.

It's okay for the submissive to say that it's okay to just be kicked away, and the disobedient is basically cut to death!

After the soldiers plundered, the leader stood up, only to see a man wearing a bowl and red tassels, and said, "How many people are there in the West Village?" ”

The man in the dress replied, "My lord, there are still 1,000 people in our department who have not yet gathered!" The East Village has been slaughtered and is basically deserted, dare to ask the head of the department, where is the next? ”

The ruthless Dashun Wuqing Chief: Niu Ba, directly ordered "Burn!" ”

Unexpectedly, two villages were burned to the ground with a fire, and then the Liukou Shun army swaggered away with the Shunzi flag.

At the same time, due to the lack of evidence during the interrogation, the Wei housekeepers were temporarily imprisoned, and the officials in the prison received a secret report of killing the prisoners?

However, the strange thing is that the jailers were just ordered to start, but they were suddenly smoked by a burst of smoke, and the prison was instantly filled with a thick white smoke, and many prisoners were also stunned by this smoke, and the steward of the Wei Mansion was no exception!

But I seem to see a shadow in my misty eyes?

This side was invited into the palace by the Ming Wu Qingwei left guard of the thousand households: Zhu Youlan, protected by Ma Wei and the accompanying guards were also arranged, the scale of the banquet was very large, almost covering the entire hall and even the side hall, invited Wuqing County and Wu Qingwei left and right to guard the five thousand households, Wu Qingwei left and right to guard the five hundred households, the famous chef came to cook in person to make all kinds of delicious dishes, and the maids in the house carried the plates one by one.

Ma Wei, who was sitting during the banquet, was first fascinated by the dancing girls, and later by the food, and the appearance of eating was almost as harmful as a foodie!

In order to welcome the Ming Wu Qingwei Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu who was sitting on the side seat, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip, while Zhu Youlan, who was sitting on the side, thanked him with royal etiquette, and couldn't control his emotions and blurted out, "Thank you Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu for your hospitality!" The lord of this county is grateful, and after entering Beijing, he will definitely ask His Majesty to reward the adults. ”

In fact, everyone knows that the capital fell and His Majesty was martyred!

So as soon as it came to this side seat, the Ming Wu Qing Wei Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu froze, and quickly put down the wine glass and fell into contemplation, and the Ming Wu Qing Wei Cao Yun Baihu next to him: Gu Dasheng stood up and wanted to open the topic and said, "Oh, this time His Royal Highness the county lord has worked hard all the way to the north, and it is better to stay for a few more days when I come to Wuqing County today, so that the Lord Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu can do a little bit of the landlord's etiquette." ”

Who knew that Ming Wu Qingwei left to guard the imperial Qianhu, but signaled the generals to retreat, and explained to himself: "It's not a secret! Right now, Gyeonggi.... ”

Before the words fell, a soldier wearing a felt hat swaggered in without signing up, glanced at the people at the banquet, and made the Ming Wu Qing Guard Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu frightened a little angry, but fortunately, the soldier reacted quickly, clasped his fists with both hands and reported: "Little Qi Yu Zuo Shou Yu Qianhu Lord, according to the Malay report, there are Liukou in the northwest towards our department, Commander Wei asked me to remind you to organize troops to resist as soon as possible." ”
