Zhang Chengqian said: "If you win a little money, you will talk nonsense, people are afraid that this woman's mouth will know something, and the world will talk nonsense!" Brother Wang, don't laugh, don't laugh. ”

"It's a good thing to have money, Brother Zhang, it's not right for you to hide it, it seems that Brother Zhang has his own skills in gambling money, I have to ask Brother Zhang for advice when I have time."

"Where? Brother Wang's wealth is one of the best in Terry, but I want to ask you for advice. ”

Wang Laohu snorted twice and said, "Brother Zhang, I have something to do now, and I want to ask you for advice." Without waiting for Zhang Chengqian to reply, Wang Laohu immediately asked: "Brother Zhang is also often in the Juxiang Gambling House, and on that night, Liu Erzi, who often plays there, was killed, and his body was found in the alley, has Brother Zhang ever heard of it?" ”

There was a murder in the small county town, such a big thing must have spread throughout the county, who else doesn't know now?

"I heard about it, but I don't know Liu Erzi well." Zhang Cheng said.

"Have you ever played at a table?" Wang Laohu asked.

Zhang Chengqian thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem to be." ”

"Brother Zhang really has a good memory!" Wang Laohu said, "I heard that Brother Zhang has been playing in Juxiang Gambling House for a while, and Liu Er was stunned there for a day. ”

"Brother Wang, what do you mean by that?"

"It's not interesting. Just casually asked, I heard that Brother Zhang happened to be in Juxiang Casino, I think you will know more things, so ......" Wang Laohu deliberately extended his voice, but did not continue.

"Yes, yes, but unfortunately I'm not a nosy person. Brother Wang, why are you taking care of this idle matter? Zhang Chengqian asked rhetorically.

"This is not an ordinary case, this is a homicide, our county has always been safe, and there are very few homicides." Wang Laohu said.

"People die every day in this world, if Brother Wang takes care of everything, can he still manage it?" Zhang Cheng said.

"But this case is very strange." Wang Laohu said mysteriously.

"What's the matter? Didn't you die by slashing your throat with a knife! ”

"It seems that Brother Zhang doesn't care, and he also knows that Liu Erzi was cut by someone?"

Zhang Chengqian smiled and said, "This matter is so big, I just heard about it, and I heard about it." ”

"What else did Brother Zhang hear?"

"There's nothing left, and I don't care about it every day!" Zhang Cheng said.

Wang Laohu knew that he couldn't ask anything in front of Zhang Chengqian, and Wang Laohu didn't expect to ask anything in him: "Brother Mu, Brother Guo and I miss you very much, when will the four of us brothers get together for a drink." ”

"This, it's very convenient, we can invite when we have time."

That evening, the palace compound.

Wang Laohu and the old lady were eating.

I only heard the family Ding come forward to report, "Old lady, son, there are a lot of officials outside, and they say they want to see the son." ”

"Official?" The old lady looked confused. "Hu'er, this official is so late, I don't know why I came to the house?"

"We'll find out when we meet." Wang Laohu turned to Jia Ding again and said, "Let them in." Wang Laohu said to the old lady again: "Mother, you eat first, and I will go to the hall to meet the guests." ”

The old lady said, "I'll wait for you to come back." ”

Wang Laohu waited in the hall. A large number of officials poured in. They were armed with torches or weapons. The leader of the official service, Li Zhukuai, rushed into the hall with four small catchers. Wang Biao hurriedly raised his knife to block in front of Wang Laohu.

Wang Laohu ordered Wang Biao to put away the knife and said to Li Zhukuai: "Li Zhukuai, is it a business trip tonight, or a private matter?" ”

"Prince Wang, tonight I am on the orders of Lord Zhu to arrest you." Li Zhu replied quickly.

"Oh, Lord Zhu ordered me to be arrested? Can you tell me what I have sinned? Wang Laohu said.

"Prince Wang, you know in your heart what you have committed. I was just ordered to arrest and ask Wang Gongzi to come with us. ”

"If you want to take me away, give me a reason. Otherwise......"

"Prince Wang, please don't embarrass us, I'm just acting on orders."

"I don't want to embarrass Li Chukuai, it's just that if you take me away, you have to give me a reason."

"Wang Gongzi, Lord Zhu ordered me to come and raise people, and I already knew that there would be obstacles, so our county government has already dispatched all of them. But I know that Wang Gongzi will not be embarrassed. ”

"Li Zhukuai, you must take me away?"

After a stalemate like this for a while, Li Zhu said quickly: "Prince Wang, I know that you are good at kung fu, but you have important things to do next, and you are offended." ”

A few small catchers rushed towards Wang Laohu. Wang Biao stood in front of Wang Laohu and shouted, "Who dares to move the son!" Several personal guards rushed out from all corners in response, Chang Yuchun, Huda, and Qishun also rushed out with weapons.

Xiao Yu quickly froze there, not daring to move.

Wang Laohu said: "Li Zhukuai, please tell me, what did I do?" ”

Li Zhu said quickly: "Prince Wang, do you want to resist arrest!" ”

"Li Zhukuai, I know that you are an upright person, I just want to know the crime I committed, and I don't mean to resist arrest." Wang Laohu beckoned to Wang Biao and the others. Wang Biao and the others immediately put away their weapons and took a step back. The personal guards had put away their weapons, but they were still vigilantly watching.

"Prince Wang, please go back with me, Master Zhu will give you an explanation." Li Zhu said quickly.

"Since Li Zhukuai said so, I believe that Li Zhukuai didn't know, okay, I'm willing to go with you." Wang Laohu said.

"Hu'er can't go anywhere!" A stern and loud voice came, and it turned out to be Mrs. Wang.

"Mother." Wang Laohu stepped forward to help the old lady.

Li Chukuai also had more respect for the old lady, and stepped forward and said, "Old lady Wang, Li has something important to do today, so it is inconvenient to say hello." ”

"Li catches quickly, even if Hu'er does something wrong, he has his own Wang family to deal with it, and he doesn't have to worry about the government." The old lady said.

"Old lady, this prince is not an ordinary thing, and what the prince has committed is determined by the government, I was just ordered to come to arrest the prince and ask the old lady to make it convenient."

Wang Laohu said: "Mother, Hu'er has done nothing wrong, I will go with him, and you can wait for me to come back at home." ”

"But,......," said the old lady, swallowing something to say.

"Li Zhu, let's go." Wang Laohu said.

"Prince Wang, please put on shackles, please don't embarrass us." Li Zhu said quickly.

Xiao Yu quickly took the shackles and stepped forward. Wang Biao was about to step forward, but was stopped by Wang Laohu's look. Wang Laohu did not resist and let Xiao Yu quickly be shackled.

Before leaving, Wang Laohu told Steward He to take good care of his mother, and instructed Wang Biao to protect his mother.

After Li Zhu quickly took Wang Laohu away, the old lady said, "Steward He, follow me to the county office." ”

Steward He and the old lady immediately rushed to the county office, and the gate of the county government was closed. Steward He stepped forward and knocked on the door. An old man came to open the door, and Steward He said, "Trouble is spreading, Mrs. Wang asks to see you." The old man said: "Lord Zhu has long expected that Mrs. Wang is coming, Lord Zhu asked me to bring a message to Mrs. Wang, it is inconvenient to see guests today, please go back."

Steward He took out a bag of coins and said, "I'm sorry to spread it again." ”

The old man looked at the money bag and said, "It's not that I'm not for the communication, Lord Zhu is indeed not for the guest, if the old lady is concerned, please ask the old lady to go to the county hall tomorrow to hear the trial, and she will know." ”

With that, the old man closed the door.

Steward Ho is there.

Wang's compound.

Old Madam Wang looked at the empty hall, thinking. She said to Steward He: "Steward He, Hu'er doesn't know what he did today? ”

Steward He said: "Old lady, Hu'er has always been filial and cautious now, and I don't know what he has done?" ”

"If there is no crime, why would the county government come late at night to bring people? What butler, don't you hide anything from me? ”

"Old lady, I really don't know, but that Wang Biao is the right and left wing of the son, I think he will know something..."

"Call Wang Biao quickly," the old lady said eagerly.

Wang Biao soon arrived in the hall.

"Old lady, I don't know what happened when I came?"

"Wang Biao, do you know what your son-in-law is busy with these days?" Wang Laohu asked.

"Back to the old lady, the son has been the same as usual these days, either going to Bian Yifang, or going to Wanchunfang, and don't do anything else."
