In the middle of the autumn night, the cold wind was blowing, and Su Duchen wrapped his robe tightly. I drank a little late today, so I had to walk through the back door through the alley.

I walked into the alley, and suddenly, I felt a pain in the back of my neck and a black eye...... Su Duchen was packed and carried away by two masked strong men......

"Are you two blind! Catch someone and his grandmother's mistake! ”

"Slap-smack-" slap.

"Don't fight, don't fight, let's change, this time I promise to catch the right one."

"Your fucking grandma's fart, people will be there waiting for you to catch it!"

"What about that...... You said, wearing clothes of this color, the location is also correct. ”

The conversation in his ears made Su Duchen feel so noisy. As soon as his body moved, his neck ached, and he subconsciously reached out to touch it, only to find that he seemed to be tied up. His hands and feet were tied, his mouth was stuffed with a cloth, and his eyes were covered!

"Woo-" Su Duchen's whole body shook. He wants to curse, which second cargo caught him!!

"him, take off the eyecloth."

"Huh."

In a dilapidated room, two sturdy men bowed their heads in resignation, and Su Duchen turned his gaze to the other people.

Hey! A little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, Su Duchen frowned and pondered.

Among the servants, the obese man walked up to Su Duchen and rudely tore off the cloth that was stuffed in his mouth.

"Second brother, what should I do with this person." The fat man asked the bearded old man sitting in the chair.

"Kill it." The scar man sitting in another chair spoke, indifferently.

Thinking of who they were, Su Duchen sighed in his heart, what an ape dung! The beard, the scar, and the fat man were the bandits he had encountered on his first day here.

"How long have you been doing this? Is silver easy to earn? Su Duchen turned on the chat mode. It's best to knock them out

The three mountain bandits are a little confused? The plot development is not right! So calm?

Su Duchen was stunned by his words, and continued: "It seems that you haven't made any money. It's a dilapidated house, tsk - it's hard for you to be able to do it. With a disgusted face, he shook his head as he spoke.

It's a little interesting, the long-bearded mountain bandit who is called the second brother touched his beard and smiled. None of the people they have been arrested are crying and chirping, trembling with fear. Only this man is not afraid of them.

"It's not easy to make money, that's why I want you to donate some money. As for this house, it's all rough people who don't pay attention to these things. "The Bandit Road of the Long Whisker Mountain. Since you want to talk, let's talk about it.

"For us, raw meat is silver, even if we catch the wrong person, as long as the money comes, everything is easy to say." The scar man directly singled out, and the threat was full of meaning. No amount of nonsense is better than silver.

"The northern slope of Yinshan Mountain is indeed a good place, although the mountain is not high but steep. Strange rocks stand in the middle of the mountain to build a village, advance can be attacked and retreated, can be defended. Good place, old man. Su Duchen was threatened by the scar, but his face still did not change.

The place was Su Duchen's guess - there was no place near Changping County that could be their den except Yin Mountain, combined with the direction they fled from that day...... This should be Hu Biao in Yinshanzhai, the second in the family, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called: Hu Erye.

"Hahaha, you're kind of interesting in this afterlife. Then tell me how to make more money, and how to make my place comfortable. Hu Biao moved the chair to Su Duchen and chatted with him face-to-face.

Su Duchen smiled and didn't speak, glanced at Hu Biao, and then looked down at the rope that tied him. The meaning is obvious, people are still tied, and they can't talk.

"Untie the rope and let this little brother loosen his muscles." Hu Biao pointed to the rope and said.

Su Duchen stood up and moved a few times, pinching his wrists and walking around the room. He was trying to say that among the servants, the scar man was the most difficult to deal with. And he can't be here for too long, Su Shi won't be able to find him in a hurry.

Su Duchen thought for a while and said, "Old man, what you do the most in this cottage is to kidnap people and steal money?" ”

"This is our second master, you kid call me again!" The fat man pointed at Su Duchen and shouted. The cottage has the rules of the cottage, and Hu Erye is the largest.

"Fat Fortune." Hu Biao shouted, and his eyes motioned to Fat Fu to stand aside: "Our Yin Cottage is the most moral, and those who block the road and rob the road are also divided into people." As for those who take money from people, this kind of meat is bought and sold, and if someone gives money, we will work. ”

Su Duchen touched his chin and said, "Yin Shanzhai was included in the list of clean-up by the government, and you must have done a trembling job of making a living, and occasionally a few orders of business can sustain a few expenses......"

"You're from the government?" The scar man interrupted Su Duchen's words, and at the same time pulled the knife from his waist and put it on Su Duchen's neck.

"Old man, before I finished speaking, your subordinates threatened with knives. It seems that your second master Hu is not strict under the rule, and your prestige is not high. Su Duchen said angrily. He glared at Scar Man, ignoring the knife around his neck, and turned back to sit back in his chair.

"Kuisan, put the knife away. Little brother, you go on. "Hu Biao doesn't care whether Su Duchen is from the government or not. As long as the person is in the village, if something goes wrong, he will be killed, and there is no burden at all.

Su Duchen looked at the interaction between them, sneered in his heart, and said with a non-obvious face: "There is a member of the party in Xiaping Village who has encroached on nearly 100 acres of fertile land for farmers. The encroached farmers had no way to file a lawsuit, so they spontaneously came to the door to claim compensation. It's a pity that the money didn't arrive but cost his life. ”

Among the beggars taken in by Mingweitang, there are three boys under the age of 10, who are the children of the farmers in Xiaping Village, who are forced to come out to beg out of desperation.

Hu Biao frowned, what does this mean? This is what it is. As soon as Hu Biao wanted to ask, Su Duchen continued: "At that time, I was thinking that the backer behind this Fang member is really so powerful. If someone can find out the correspondence between the outsider and the backer, and then send these things to the backer's opponent. What will happen to the backers and outsiders? After Su Duchen finished speaking, he leaned on the back of the chair and looked at Hu Biao, can he know what I'm talking about?

After listening to this, Hu Biao touched his beard and stared at Su Duchen: "Those who inquire about the news, be a spy, and be a meticulous work?" ”

Su Duchen smiled: "Second Master Hu is smart. ”

"Impossible, impossible. Fine work can only be cultivated by the imperial court, and we can't do it. Hu Biao shook his head and said.

The corners of Su Duchen's mouth rose, of course he knew it was difficult. The big officials in the capital, it is estimated that there are some guards at home, secret guards and the like, and ordinary people are ......

But well-Su Duchen is not for this, there is so much foreshadowing in front of him, it is nothing more than digging a pit. He continued: "There are three advantages to being able to find out the news and to be able to shake the news in your hands, one is that the money from them is fast, and they will never dare to publicize it. 2. You can get as much silver as you want. 3. Clean up the troubles before the action, and no one will find out that you did it. ”

Su Duchen is very sure that Hu Biao must have a lot of silver tickets floating in his mind now. There are some things that normal people can only think about, because they are too difficult, so they forget after hearing about them.

But Hu Biao and his two subordinates are different. They are bandits, they like to do business, they know better than Su Duchen, how many such officials there are in Changping County and Nahuaizhou Prefecture.

Su Duchen just played a trick to attack the heart, knowing that the bait was hanging on the hook, but after seeing the fat bait, he would try to see if he could only eat the bait without biting the hook.

Su Duchen looked at the expressions on their faces, and slowly cracked, well, just listen to it. Talking nonsense, talking too much, plus he didn't sleep much, he was tired, he wanted to sleep.

"Hey, why did you kid fall asleep, get up." Fat Fu saw that Su Duchen actually fell asleep and pushed him.

"Little brother, what you said is feasible?" Hu Biao asked.

"If it's too difficult for officials, you can start with those rich businessmen. A wealthy businessman, but a large family that does not pull out a dime. After Su Duchen finished speaking, he opened his eyes, glanced at Hu Biao, and said, "Second Master Hu, I have neither grievance nor enmity with you, you are just tying up the wrong person." Send someone to take me down the mountain. ”

Fat Fu glared: "You're leaving!" ”

"Not so. Fatty, you can't bear me. Su Duchen laughed and said, and threw a wink by the way.

"Fuck off!" Fat Fu's face turned red.

"Little brother, why don't you stay here as a military advisor, and have the silver to spend together." Hu Biao touched his beard and said. This kid has a lot of ideas, and it is estimated that it will be useful to stay in the village.

Su Duchen stood up, dusted off his sleeves and said, "Second Master Hu, I won't tell you, I still have a poor grandmother to take care of at home." As for the position of military advisor, I am not qualified to do it if I am not knowledgeable, thank you for the appreciation of the second master. Su Duchen arched his hand and said, "Besides, this Yin Mountain is close to the county seat, so you can go to the county to find me if you have anything." ”

Hu Biao squinted his eyes, touched his beard, pretended to think deeply, and said with a smile: "Haha-you will be my brother in Yin Shanzhai in the future." Okay, I'll send you down. ”

Su Duan smiled and patted Hu Biao's shoulder: "Second Master Hu is really a happy person, brother, I thank you." Farewells. After Su Duchen finished speaking, he walked out. Only then did he take two steps and turn back, walked up to Hu Biao and stretched out his hand and said, "Second Master Hu, give me some silver taels." ”

Hu Biao's beard trembled obviously, did he hear it right? Versus? frowned and said, "Little brother, you mean to let me give you the silver?" ”

"Uh-huh. You think, I didn't go back for two nights, my grandma must be in a hurry, and I must ask after I go back, I can't say that I was tied up to the cottage, I just said that I went to someone else's house as a guest. If you go back, you must buy something to make her happy, but now that I have no money, you must give me some silver. Su Duchen said as he proved that his pockets were cleaner than his face.

Hu Biao thought about it for a long time and felt that what he said was really reasonable and could not refute it. Very reluctant... In slow motion, he pulled out some broken silver. Su Duchen smiled secretly, quickly grabbed the broken silver in his hand, and then waved his hand...... Bye.

Fat Fu: "......"

Kuisan: "......"

After that, a "reputation" praising Hu Biao and Hu Erye emerged in the rivers and lakes. Said - Yin Shanzhai tied the wrong person, felt ashamed, and treated the "guests" with courtesy. Not only that, but also in silver two gifts, personally sent the "guests" down the mountain. Hu Erye is really a chivalrous man......

………………………………

Changping County.

Su Duchen saw his grandmother from afar, standing in front of the store and looking anxiously.

Su Duchen smiled and waved his hand, and Su immediately lowered his face when he saw him, pretending to be serious.

Tsk-pretend, obviously concerned, and pretending to be fierce, Su Duchen smiled in his heart.

"Grandma, you're here to pick me up." Su Duchen smiled, and his tone was full of banter.

"Phew, who's free to pick you up, huh." Su Shi flicked his sleeves into the house.

I haven't seen him for two days, Su Duchen looked at Su's back, as if his back was more hunched, and he seemed to be older. Is it because I'm worried about him, or is something happening in the past two days?

"Grandma, do you have anything to eat? Hungry. Su Duchen trotted to follow, touching his stomach and said pitifully.

"Hmph." Su Shi was angry and didn't speak, but his eyes betrayed her, and his eyes flung into the inner courtyard.

"Nothing happened, if you don't come back in the future, you have to say goodbye to me." When he walked into the inner courtyard, Su couldn't help but say.

"Uh-huh. It's okay, I'm fine, don't worry. I'll go first to put on the incense. After Su Duchen finished speaking, he walked towards the back room.

"Hmm." Su Shi looked at Su Duchen's back, and stopped talking. His hands were clutched, and his bloodshot eyes were full of melancholy.

One afternoon a month ago.

Su Duchen felt that something was wrong, the mourning hall that Su had entered since the morning had not come out in the afternoon. Su Duchen stood in front of the door, hesitated for a long time, and slowly pushed the door open.

Su Shi knelt on the futon, and his thin figure looked even weaker at this time, like a candle in the wind.

"For 20 years, I have nowhere to redress the grievances of the Su family, and I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Su family. I should have died twenty years ago, why did you let me stay until today? Unwilling, unwilling! Su's voice sobbed, hitting Su Duchen's heart every word. Grief, despair, hatred, unwillingness, and torture Su day and night.

Twenty years ago, Su Shiyuan took office in the household department. The embezzlement case of 500,000 taels was sued by a piece of paper in the winter of this year.

Thoroughly investigate the words from the heavens, and for a time the hundreds of officials in the capital were noisy, and the grass and trees were all soldiers. Su Shiyuan is a petty household official with no power and no power, loyal and honest, and this corruption case naturally has nothing to do with him. Besides, the silver two are from the top layer to the bottom, and it will not be his turn to get a piece of the pie.

It's a pity that things are often so cruel, and honest people are easy to be used as targets and cannon fodder.

The Criminal Department began to investigate deeply, and as more and more evidence emerged, the arrow pointed directly at Su Shiyuan and a five-grade official of the household department: Zuo Zhongshu.

A few days later, the Criminal Department came to a conclusion that Zuo Zhongshu was the main offender, his home was raided, and Zuo Zhongshu was immediately executed. Su Shiyuan was an accomplice, his house was raided, and Su Shiyuan was exiled to the Northland. Two days later, the one sitting on the dragon chair changed the verdict, the Zuo family was beheaded, the men were beheaded for public display, and the women were given wine.

The thirty-two members of the Su family were exiled to the Northland. The whole case ended in less than 10 days from the thorough investigation to the final investigation. The one sitting on the dragon chair wanted to kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys, and the high-level of the household department did everything they could, and nearly 100 people from the Zuo Su family became the dead ghosts. The result not only made the emperor comfortable, but also the high-level people also cleaned themselves up, and everyone was happy.

However, the matter did not end, an assassination on the way to escort, and the Su family was full of unjust souls. Su ran away with his grandson, who was less than one year old, and the killer forced Su to the cliff, and the grandson was stabbed to death on the spot, and Su fell off the cliff.

In the past 20 years, every day on this day, the Su family would go to the tablet to meditate for a day, because this day was the death anniversary of the Su family.

On this day, Su Duchen accompanied Su to sit in the mourning hall.

It may be that there is someone to confide in, or it may be that Su's backlog of words for too long is spoken, and the door of his heart is opened. Su Duchen obviously felt that Su's face was better, and the expression on his face was also rich. This is what he is very happy to see, and there is always hope in life.
