The fifth and third round: a pair of mandarin ducks are trying to make money, and three dirty officials are seeking a family business
1
In his letter to Li Fengqiong, Liu Jia only wrote the poem that Li Fengqiong wrote herself:
The flood of Jiuchuan flows down the sky and enters my deep mountains to wash my sorrows.
Persuade the gentleman to climb Qiongya as soon as possible, and not lose the phoenix and show the sycamore.
Li Fengqiong returned to the nobleman's nest Zhongle Building, got into the room, hurriedly went to the bed to untie the pillow, took out the cloth bag and tore it, and took a look at the paper inside, there was also a poem on it, but it was not the one she made, but:
Zhong Kui is richer than Lu Junyi, and Jiuchuan is comparable to Li Gu's rape.
persuade the concubine to learn from the Jia family and turn the unicorn into the western sky.
What about your own poems? How did it get dropped? Li Fengqiong pondered for a while, and sent someone to rush to the flavor restaurant to pass the word to Li Sande, to inquire about the name of Hefei Sande, Li Sande saw that his sister had an order, and did not dare to slack off, and immediately found the surrounding neighbors to inquire, and learned that there were three original owners of the flavor restaurant: Liujia, Zhang Chuan, and Qiuguang.
Li Fengqiong finally understood, it turned out that she and her younger brother had fallen into the trap of Hefei's three frauds.
The girls in the spring building and the merry geniuses sing poems and songs abound, such as Hefei Sanshou sent his poems to Hei Zhong Kui, and then added salt and vinegar to agitate, the consequences are unimaginable.
Li Fengqiong knows that although the poem she wrote has a vague meaning, it is not enough as proof that she loves Meng Jiuchuan, but the underworld is different from the white way, the underworld does not talk about evidence, only about suspicion, her husband Hei Zhongkui is cruel, as long as he suspects that he is having an affair with Meng Jiuchuan, he will definitely kill himself and Meng Jiuchuan.
"I've met a ghost, I've met a ghost," Li Fengqiong paced back and forth in the room, muttering to herself angrily. Regarding Liu Jia's blackmailing of Li Sande, Li Fengqiong can still deal with it calmly and clearly, but now that it is her turn, she no longer has the calmness she had before. At this moment, Li Fengqiong was holding the blackmail poem in her hand and was panicked, looking helpless.
Li Fengqiong suddenly thought that there was the word "Jiuchuan" in the poem, after all, this matter was related to him Meng Jiuchuan, once the matter failed, he couldn't stay out of it, yes, find him to come over and discuss.
When Meng Jiuchuan heard the reason, he was also shocked, he had arrested a prisoner all his life, and there were still prisoners who dared to threaten him? After pondering for a while, Meng Jiuchuan showed murderous anger on his face, and said fiercely: "You really ate the gall of a leopard, dare to blackmail me?" In this life, only me, Meng Jiuchuan, rectifies others, and others don't want to rectify me Meng Jiuchuan! ”
Li Fengqiong said: "Brother, do you know the meaning of the poem?" ”
Meng Jiuchuan is familiar with history books, how can he not know the reason, and said: "Needless to say, in "Water Margin", the wife of the jade unicorn Lu Junyi, Jia Shi, hooked up with the housekeeper Li Gu and became an adulterer, and the adulterer ** jointly framed Lu Junyi, seized his family property, and put him on death row to be beheaded. Now, they compare 'Black Zhongkui' Li Ping to Lu Junyi, me to the housekeeper Li Gu, and you to Jia's family, and persuade you to "turn the Qilin into the Western Heavens", isn't this an obvious attempt to get rid of Li Ping? But how can I, Meng Jiuchuan, be at the mercy of others, sister, don't worry, you tell me the ins and outs of this matter from the beginning, I will definitely capture these three little ghosts and bring them to justice one by one. ”
Li Fengqiong then blackmailed Li Sande by Liujia, Zhang Chuan, and Qiuguang, Liping made a big fuss about the flavor villa, and forcibly occupied the hotel, and then Qiuguang designed to take his own love poems, and Liujia three-person inn caught rape and extorted Li Sande 1,000 taels of silver and other things in detail with Meng Jiuchuan.
"Oh...... It turned out to be the three of them! Meng Jiuchuan said remorsefully: "Three years ago, someone reported these three people to me, accusing them of blackmailing past merchants, but I didn't care, I thought about what kind of climate the three splashes could become, so I didn't bother to care, I never thought that it would knock on my head." ”
Li Fengqiong said: "My brother is an official of the imperial court, how dare these three little ghosts provoke?" It's just that Li Ping and Sande forcibly occupied their restaurant, and now people are looking for revenge, but they know that their brother is powerful and want to ask their brother to get rid of Li Ping and vent their anger for them. ”
Meng Jiuchuan sneered lightly and said, "Hmph, dignified Meng Jiuchuan, how can you be at the mercy of three scoundrels?" ”
"So what do I do? Once Li Ping sees the poem I wrote by himself, he will definitely kill me, and when the time comes, I am afraid that you will also be suspicious of him," Li Fengqiong took Meng Jiuchuan's hand and begged.
Meng Jiuchuan snorted and said, "Although your husband is ruthless and doesn't recognize his six relatives, I am an official of the imperial court, what can he do to me?" ”
Li Fengqiong was sure to pull Meng Jiuchuan into the water, and said coldly: "Of course, he is afraid of your official uniform and does not dare to openly ask you for a theory, but with his personality, he can't do it openly, can he let you go secretly?" Li Fengqiong's reminder, Meng Jiuchuan seemed to have an understanding, and couldn't help but ponder. Li Fengqiong said again: "Does he know that you have less business?" Even if you don't send a killer to take your life and secretly report you for being corrupt and perverting the law...... In short, once the matter between us is known to him, my brother and him will inevitably be incompatible. ”
Meng Jiuchuan sighed and said: "What my sister said is very true, he Hei Zhong Kui can sleep with other people's ladies in his arms, but he will never allow others to take a second look at his maiden, I know him too well." ”
Li Fengqiong was overjoyed, and begged with a soft attitude: "Brother, if you want to find a way, you should save your sister." ”
Meng Jiuchuan said: "Now there are only two ways, the first is to find a way to catch all these three people, search for the poems you wrote, and burn them with fire." The second is to kill Li Ping, so that the poems in their hands will become a piece of waste paper. ”
Li Fengqiong said worriedly: "Of course it would be best if you could catch them all in one net, if you miss one or two, wouldn't it be a big deal?" But it's not okay to kill Li Ping, he is good at martial arts, and he has many brothers, how easy is it to get rid of him? ”
Meng Jiuchuan picked up the wine jug on the table, poured himself a glass, drank it all, and then said hatefully: "I am an official, he is a bandit, it is not easy for an official to suppress bandits?" It's just that I'm unwilling, Meng Jiuchuan has been a judge all his life, and no one has ever dared to point fingers at me, but now I am at the mercy of three Xiao juniors, how can I swallow this evil breath. ”
Li Fengqiong saw her lover's murderous face, she was secretly happy in her heart, and instigated: "First get rid of Li Ping to relieve your worries, and then kill three ghosts out of this evil spirit in your heart." ”
Meng Jiuchuan nodded and said, "What my sister said is that what he has done recently, you say come and listen, I can design to get rid of him." ”
Li Fengqiong said: "Last year they beat a Yunnan man and cut off one of his legs; This year, they often beat each other with An An of the Luzhou Overlord Dart Bureau, and I heard that An An was beaten to the point that he couldn't get out of bed for three months......"
Meng Jiuchuan cut off the topic and said: "I know all these things, and I also calmed them down for him in front of Lord Luzhou, and said something that has nothing to do with me." ”
Li Fengqiong thought for a while and said: "They are all evil, murder and arson, rape and robbery are commonplace, but unfortunately I don't know the details, how to do it?" ”
Meng Jiuchuan raised his head to look at the gorgeously decorated Zhongle Building, and when he heard the bursts of laughter of men and women, he suddenly realized something and asked, "All the girls here came voluntarily?"
Li Fengqiong smiled bitterly: "How is it possible, whoever is willing to come here to be trampled on by a woman from a good family is mostly robbed by his black Zhong Kui." ”
Meng Jiuchuan smiled secretly: "Great." ”
Li Fengqiong was puzzled and asked, "What is my brother's magic method?" ”
Meng Jiuchuan said: "According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who sets up a strategy to lure a lover will fight a hundred, flow 3,000 miles, and those who hurt others will be hanged." My sister must take care of these girls on weekdays, get close to them, and ask for the details of Hei Zhong Kui's clever deception and robbery, I have my own strategy, once Hei Zhong Kui is excepted, his family wealth is all owned by his sister, and my sister no longer has to suffer from him and Zhao Tiantian's nest. ”

Although Meng Jiuchuan is a judge, he does not dare to be careless about the arrest of a figure like Hei Zhongkui. After returning to the Luzhou Prefecture from Zhongle Building, Meng Jiuchuan went straight to his acquaintance Bai Baoyu to conspire, Bai Baoyu is a fellow villager of Meng Jiuchuan in Fuzhou, resourceful, and the relationship between the two is good. Jiuchuan bluntly told Bai Baoyu about his predicament, and finally said: "Hei Zhongkui is vicious, he doesn't fall, I don't feel down." ”
Bai Baoyu thought about it, and sent someone to recruit Song Jianlai, the three filthy officials, bolted the door, closed the window, and conspired.
Song Jianlai said: "Hei Zhongkui is not simple, he was once a guest on the seat of Lord Zhizhou......"
Meng Jiuchuan was shocked: "If you want to move him like this, Lord Zhizhou will obstruct it?" ”
Bai Baoyu said: "That's not necessarily, he may not have a deep relationship with Lord Zhizhou, you can find something on him first, Song Zhutou arrested him, I will condemn him to death, and then present it to Lord Zhizhou, first cut and then play, at that time, Lord Zhizhou saw that everyone was in prison, what else could he say?" ”
"Wonderful, Lord Bai's clever plan."
Bai Baoyu said: "As long as Li Ping enters the prison, wouldn't it be easy to come back and clean up the three splashes?" ”
Meng Jiuchuan was overjoyed and thanked: "Your Excellency is kind, the lower officials have no teeth and do not forget." ”
Song Jianlai said worriedly: "Hei Zhongkui's martial arts are not bad, and he is protected by thugs on weekdays, if you want to arrest him, you have to transfer at least fifty or sixty to catch him quickly, such a big thing, how to bypass Lord Zhizhou?" ”
Bai Baoyu said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, I can use a little trick to capture him Hei Zhong Kui, and Lord Meng and Song Zhutou will come over with their ears......"
Listening to Bai Baoyu's strategy, Meng Jiuchuan was overjoyed: "In this way, Hei Zhongkui's huge family business will belong to us." ”
The three filthy officials burst out laughing.

After dark, the nobleman's nest is noisy in the music building, at this time it is the time when the fox boys are full of wine and food to have fun, the building sings and laughs, and the lewd pleasure is leisurely.
In the midst of the people coming and going, Li Fengqiong noticed the three young men in their twenties, seeing that they were dressed as the sons of the official family, Li Fengqiong was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted them with a smile and asked, "Do the three little brothers have a familiar girl?" The young man said: "I don't know, just come to three handsome ones." Li Fengqiong smiled: "Of course, the three little brothers come with me." Li Fengqiong led the three of them towards the room, and asked as she walked: "The three little brothers came to us for the first time, what do you do for a living?" The young man at the head was quite conceited, and said arrogantly: "One of my two brothers is the son of the state government inspection department, and the other is the young master of the state government, don't be lazy with my mother." Li Fengqiong hurriedly said: "The three sons are my honored guests, how dare you slack off?" ”
After entering the room, Li Fengqiong settled the three of them and sat down, and then shouted: "Wanchun, quickly call Chun Tao, Xia Ju, and Qiu Ye to come in and accompany the guests." The three teenagers took a look, and the three enchanting girls in front of them were all twenty-eight years old, wearing a scarf with the word "swastika", a light line jacket around the waist, and a green jacket with a bright horn crown.
"What's the matter, you didn't insult the three sons, right?" Li Fengqiong asked with a smile. The young man at the head showed an evil light in his eyes, smiled lewdly, and nodded hurriedly: "No humiliation, no humiliation." Li Fengqiong said with a smile: "Then please have fun with the princess, don't lose this golden autumn night." Li Fengqiong and Wanchun left the room, closed the door, quickly pulled Wanchun to the backyard, and after whispering to her, Wanchun took the order and left.
More than an hour later, the three young sons all came out happily, and the leader shouted to settle the bill, Li Fengqiong rushed into the room and responded with a smile: "Eighteen taels of silver." ”
The faces of the three teenagers changed greatly, and they took the lead and said, "Mom, why do you want so much silver?" Li Fengqiong's face sank, and she sneered: "My girl is as beautiful as a flower, and her skills are overwhelming, so she is worth this price."
The young man at the head said angrily: "You dare to blackmail us? The other two teenagers also asked loudly: "Are you a black shop?" "Dare to play prestige in front of this young master and look for death?"
Li Fengqiong slammed the table and scolded: "I don't have money and still come out to play? There is no room for poor ghosts here. ”
"Say we're poor ghosts?" The three young men felt ashamed and humiliated, and jumped up and scolded: ", believe it or not, we smashed your shop." ”
Li Fengqiong had a prodigal and coquettish attitude: "Adulterous mother? Hmph, the women are jealous of Yu Zhi's eyebrows, and the rumor is that Yu is good and promiscuous, hehehehe......"
Seeing Li Fengqiong's situation, the three young men were furious and shouted, "You don't dare me? ”
Li Fengqiong was looking forward to them smashing and making trouble, so she pretended to be contemptuous and provoked: "You have the ability to smash it!" What is not smashed is pickled and poured. ”
The three of them were originally gentlemen, how could they have suffered such humiliation, they immediately picked up a stool and threw it at Li Fengqiong, and when the three girls saw this, they ran out of the door in panic, shouting "Beat someone, beat someone." The five thugs who had been waiting outside the door rushed in and beat the three boys severely, and after a few moments, they beat the man to the ground, unable to move. Seeing this, Li Fengqiong immediately ordered the thugs to pull the three out of the door and throw them on the street.
Zong Jianlai, the head catcher, took a dozen catchers to patrol the streets, and when he saw three teenagers limping on the street, he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you and why do you look like this?" The three teenagers cried, "Adults, hurry up and make decisions for us." Zong Jianlai said: "Let's talk about it in detail." The young man said: "Tell the adults, the father and the adults are in the same family, and the three of us wanted to have fun in Zhongle Building, and we didn't want to be rudely beaten, and we hope that the adults will call the shots." Zong Jianlai asked the reason, only to know that these three people were none other than Wang Sheng, the son of Wang Gui of the Luzhou Inspection Department, Xue Yi, the son of Xue Quan, and Meng De, the son of Meng Han.
Zong Jianlai said: "Don't worry, the three virtuous nephews, wait for me to seek justice for you." Immediately led people to break into the nobleman's nest Zhongle Building, at this time Li Fengqiong was gone, Zong Jian came to search, and ordered people to tie up all the thugs and more than ten prostitutes to the Luzhou Prefecture to await trial.

Li Fengqiong cried and told Li Ping that Zong Jian had come to raid Zhongle Building, Li Ping was furious and shouted: "What kind of thing is Zong Jianlai, he dares to raid my place!" Come on, prepare the horse, I'm going to meet Master Meng. Li Ping rode a fast horse, with ten entourages, angrily came to the Luzhou Mansion, after the menzi reported, Meng Jiuchuan ordered someone to invite Li Ping and the four people to meet.
"Master Meng, today the head of the sect has led people to check my Zhongle Building, arrested my brother, and arrested my girl, what is the reason?" Before Li Ping could sit down, he indignantly reprimanded.
Meng Jiuchuan pretended not to know, and asked in surprise: "Oh, there is such a thing?" I don't know, there must be some misunderstanding. ”
Li Ping's tone softened slightly, and said: "I heard that there were three guests who were dissatisfied with Clumsy Jing, and there was a bit of a verbal dispute, and then they moved their hands and feet, and Zong Zhutou arrested my person indiscriminately because of this matter. ”
Meng Jiuchuan laughed: "I see, Brother Li must not be angry, just because there have been many fights and brawls in Hefei City recently, Lord Zhizhou ordered a strict investigation, and Zong Jianlai patrolled the street a few more times, I think it must be that the three guests happened to meet Zong Zhutou patrolling after being beaten, so they reported the case, and there was a misunderstanding." ”
Li Ping said: "Even so, he shouldn't arrest my people!" ”
Meng Jiuchuan shook his head and sighed: "Alas, Zong Jianlai is stupid by nature and doesn't know how to be flexible, so he even checked Brother Li's territory, and I will train him well tomorrow and order him to release him." ”
Li Ping arched his hand and said: "Then thank you Lord Meng, Lord Meng is busy with official business, Li Ping said goodbye." ”
Sending away the angry Li Ping, Meng Jiuchuan pinched the teacup in his hand, revealing a gloomy smile, suddenly drank the tea violently, slammed the cup and said: "Hei Zhong Kui, don't blame my brother for being ruthless!." ”

Luzhou Mansion Ya Ertang, Bai Baoshan, Meng Jiuchuan, Zhizhou Yuan Zhi.
Meng Jiuchuan saluted Yuan Zhi and said: "My lord, today there are Wang Sheng, the son of Wang Gui of the Inspection Division, Xue Yi, the son of Xue Quan, and Meng De, the son of Meng Han, who taught Meng Han, because they found that the gangsters abducted the women of the good family and forced the good to become prostitutes, so they felt very unhappy. The lower officials thought that the matter should be thoroughly investigated, and they came to inform the lord to decide. ”
Yuan Zhi was furious when he heard this: "There is such a thing? Even the children of the official family dared to beat it, it was simply lawless. Who is the murderer? ”
Bai Baoyu said: "Lord Yu, Wang Sheng, Xue Yi, and Meng De are seriously injured and difficult to speak, and the name of the murderer has not been said yet, Zong Jianlai only asked intermittently, and the specific details are still to be investigated." It's just that Wang Gui, Zhaomo Xue Quan, and Meng Han of the Inspection Department were grief-stricken and jointly demanded that the murderer be severely punished. Master Meng and I considered that the matter was too big to report. ”
Yuan Zhi said: "Why do you need to tell such a bad thing, the two adults let it go, no matter who the murderer is, this official will definitely punish it according to the law, and will not forgive." ”
Bai Baoshan and Meng Jiuchuan were secretly happy, got up and saluted: "The official respects the order, and the official will do it." ”

Zong Jianlai received the statements of Wang Sheng, Xue Yi, and Meng De, and the three of them all said that their son was about to report to the official because he found out that there was human trafficking in Zhongle Building, but he was killed by Hei Zhongkui's thugs, and fortunately Zong Jianlai was rescued. Six prostitutes' complaints and five thugs' confessions were secretly recorded. Bai Baoshan and Meng Jiuchuan saw that it was enough to convict Li Ping of attempted murder and abduction of a woman from a good family, so they ordered Zong Jianlai to immediately arrest Hei Zhongkui.
Zong Jianlai summoned 70 people to rush to Hei Zhongkui's house overnight, first ordered people to surround the courtyard, and then went to knock on the door in person. When the family who opened the door saw that it was Zong Jianlai, he didn't dare to stop him, so he had to let him break into the house. When Li Fengqiong heard the news, she smiled and said, "Zong Zhutou, what did you do when you came late at night?" Zong Jianlai sneered: "Sister-in-law, the lower official was ordered to visit Brother Li on important matters. Li Fengqiong smiled: "Since that's the case, please come in." ”
More than a dozen guards wanted to prevent Zong Jian from entering the inner room, but when they saw the hostess Li Fengqiong leading the way, they had to disperse. Zong Jianlai took more than a dozen catchers into the house to take a look, Li Ping had already been drunk by Li Fengqiong, so he smiled knowingly, made a look, and everyone quickly understood, and quickly tied up the stout black Zhong Kui with a rope, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, Zong Jianlai asked Li Fengqiong to be tied up again.
When several loyal guards saw that the situation was not right, they forcibly broke into the master's bedroom, saw the master and the hostess being tied up, and shouted: "Zongzhutou, what do you mean by this? When the other guards heard this, they surrounded them with swords and swords.
The catchers outside the house heard the movement, and they all broke into the house and surrounded the guards.
Zong Jianlai said: "This head catcher was ordered to arrest people, whoever dares to stop it, there will be no mercy." ”
The guards were afraid of Zong Jian's identity as a headhunter, and secondly, they saw that there were many people who were quick to catch him, so they didn't dare to act rashly. When several of the clever guards saw that Zong Jianlai was about to take the master and the hostess away, they shouted, "Master, wake up." ”
Hei Zhongkui heard the call in a daze, opened his eyes, and saw that he and Li Fengqiong were tied up, and said angrily: "Zong Jianlai, you dare to arrest me?" ”
Zong Jianlai said: "Joke, what's wrong with arresting you?" ”
Hei Zhong Kui was furious and roared angrily: "Lao Tzu is not finished with you, I want to see Lord Zhizhou and Lord Meng." ”
Zong Jianlai stepped forward, punched Li Ping in the face, pointed at his nose and scolded: "You are a dog now, do you still need a tiger to go down the mountain to beat a dog?" ”
Li Ping was beaten and shouted, "Where are the guards? ”
All the guards were outlaws, and they were ordered by their masters, shouting to kill them, and the two sides were in a mess in the bedroom. Zong Jianlai was furious, and personally slashed with a knife, but the gangsters couldn't resist it, and after a fight, they were all arrested and quickly subdued.
Just as everyone was scrambling to tie up the guards, they heard a thunderclap that shook the sky and resounded throughout the hall: "Zong Jian, take your life!" ”
Zong Jianlai looked back, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, only to see Hei Zhong Kui dancing with a long knife and slashing like lightning. It turned out that in the scuffle, I don't know which guard used a knife to break the rope on Hei Zhong Kui's body, and Hei Zhong Kui struggled while everyone was busy tying up the guards, shook the rope of his whole body to the ground, touched a long knife, and went straight to Zong Jian with thousands of hatred.
Zong Jianlai hurriedly dodged, Hei Zhong Kui came back and cut down, the two fought fiercely, Zong Jianlai gradually lost his support, a few catchers were about to meet, and they came to help fight, Hei Zhong Kui was not afraid at all, and he fought four or five people with one man, and he still did not fall behind.
Li Fengqiong on the side saw it, she was very anxious, and when she saw Zong Jianlai in distress several times, she couldn't help but be secretly worried, thinking: If Zong Jianlai is killed, won't everyone scatter quickly, and once Hei Zhongkui knows that I brought Zong Jian into the room, how should I justify?
Li Fengqiong is both shrewd and vicious, in order to distract Hei Zhongkui, whenever there is a moment of life and death, Li Fengqiong will cry out "Master be careful", "Beware of the back", or scream for no reason, it seems that she is looking at Hei Zhongkui to win, but in fact she is intent on taking her husband's life.
Hei Zhong Kui was not just a plan, he was repeatedly distracted by his wife, and after being stabbed a few times, he gradually fell into decline. At this time, a few more catchers stepped forward to help in the battle, and Hei Zhongkui was weak after all, and was captured underground by everyone.

Later, all Li Ping's family property was confiscated by Bai Baoshan, Meng Jiuchuan, Zong Jianlai and others, Zhao Tiantian was swept out of the house, Li Fengqiong was imprisoned for making it true, many of Li Ping's subordinates and Li Sande were arrested, and Li Yangchun was also hunted down and fled from Hefei City. Zhizhou Yuan Zhi had the intention to open up to Li Ping, but Li Ping's gang of more than 20 villains, big and small, were all brought to justice, and the witness statements all accused Li Ping of fighting and injuring people, forcing good people to become prostitutes, buying and selling human beings, the circumstances were vile, and the law does not allow forgiveness. Yuan Zhi had no choice but to grit his teeth, make a decision by law, and sentenced Hei Zhongkui to hanging.
It is said that Li Fengqiong and Li Sande, the siblings, were released from prison after three years of exile, but their lives were unsettled. Li Sande couldn't repay his debts after borrowing money everywhere, and he was collected by others and had nowhere to hide. In the end, the sisters and brothers were desperate, so they had to escape into the empty door and take refuge in the Buddha, Li Fengqiong became a monk in Shuiyue Nunnery, and Li Sande was a monk in Wanbao Temple.
Li Ping is known as "Black Zhong Kui", Zhong Kui was originally a god who fights ghosts, but he didn't expect to be entangled to death by the little ghosts because he was annoyed by the three little ghosts, and the famous black Zhong Kui in Hefei City disappeared, which is really embarrassing.
