Faced with this chaotic situation, Song Zhixian had to send someone to invite Li Xin to discuss the solution. Li Xin said: "Now the only way to do this is to immediately publicize to the common people that due to the drought and locust plague, the collection of money and grain and three salaries will be suspended. Immediately persuade the rich room to produce rice, and sell it by the government at the price of ordinary years. It is estimated that it will be able to quell the occurrence of radical things among the common people. "The magistrate immediately went to the gate of the county government to announce that the collection of money and grain would be suspended. The county government will also go to the rich rooms to persuade the rich rooms to produce rice. The prefectural government will sell in limited quantities at the price of a normal year. After the announcement of the magistrate, the common people said: "We will listen to the advice of the magistrate now and go home." If there is no low-priced rice to sell, we have to come to the county office. After speaking, they left the county government one after another.

Song Zhixian listened to the words of the people, if there is no rice to sell, he will come again. If corn is not sent to the market and sold at a low price, it may provoke a rebellion among the common people. What if the rice is sold out and the people come again? sent someone to send a report to the judge: "Raise Li Xinmou to be wrongdoer, scatter his family wealth privately, and buy the hearts of the people in an attempt to make a big move." Bad and insulting officials are not allowed to be compared. Fearing that the spread will be accurate, and the misfortune will be unpredictable, begging for caress and pressing, and to rape and appease the place. After receiving the report, Fu Zhao immediately instructed: "The county government should secretly take Li Xin and imprison him, and he should not be indulged." Song Zhixian received instructions, and that night, he quietly arrested Li Xin and put him in prison. The arrest of Li Xin was still seen by the people nearby, and the officials also came out and quietly told the outside. When the hungry people heard the news, they gathered at the gate of the county government and cried out for Li Yan.

So when Song Youliang's envoy came to Qixian with Song Youliang's official documents and Bi Maokang's letters, Li Xin had already been imprisoned.

On this day, Song Zhixian was drinking and having fun at the home of the local wealthy Hou Zhengzong, who was a tyrant in Qi County, bullying men and women, and doing all kinds of evil. This time Li Xin was imprisoned, and he also played a key role in it.

Why? For women. This woman is the famous heroine of the late Ming Dynasty - the Red Lady

The red lady is an artist who makes a living by making rope skills, once to Kaifeng, was invited by the people of the Fu Wangfu to perform rope tricks in the palace, and was favored by the palace housekeeper, and wanted to marry her as a concubine The red lady did not obey, and injured the head of the palace with a knife, and fled to Qi County. Hou Zhengzong of Qi County, ordered the Red Lady to perform in the garden, and also took a fancy to the beauty of the Red Lady, and wanted to force her as a concubine, and happened to meet the murderer sent by King Fu to arrest the head of the knife wound, and the Red Lady killed the messenger sent by King Fu, and Hou Zhengzong was also injured by her. The soldiers of Qi County attacked everywhere to search for the Red Lady, and the Red Lady panicked and hid in Li Xin's mansion. Later, after Hou Zhengzong learned about this, he held a grudge against Li Xin from then on, but he couldn't find evidence.

Hou Zhengzong twisted a handful of beard on the mole on the left side of the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Li Xin, this kid is really not a lift, he actually ruined the adult's plan to make a fortune, and now a bucket of wheat is sold for a tael of silver, why bother to give it to those bitter people for nothing haha?" ”

Song Zhixian took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Yes, but it's a pity that the red lady, such a delicate beauty, ran to the nearby mountains and fell into the grass, what a pity!" ”

"Sooner or later, such anti-people will end up dead without a place to be buried." Hou Zhengzong also smiled, feeling sorry for not being able to get the red lady

Song Zhixian raised his chopsticks, just about to clip a piece of dried meat, and was about to send it to his mouth

A servant hurriedly ran over, "My lord~~Jinyiwei~Jinyiwei!" This startled Song Zhixian, his hand shook, and the dried meat fell to the ground

"What is the matter with Jinyiwei?" Song Zhixian only felt that a cold air penetrated his chest from his back, and Jin Yiwei found him, what good thing could he do? Do you want to blame yourself?

The official panted and said, "Two Jinyi guards came, saying that they wanted to bring Li Xin to Shandong." ”

Song Zhixian hurriedly dressed up, ran out of the Hou family compound, got into a sedan chair and went straight to the county yamen. When I arrived at the court, I saw two brocade guards with tigers on their backs waiting for a long time

"The contemptible person is the magistrate of Qixian County. I don't know why the two adults came? Song Zhixian asked cautiously

"I am the Jinyi Guard, the Hundred Households Situ Bow~" A Jinyi guard took out the Jinyi Guard's waist card and shook it in front of Song Zhixian, "I was ordered to come and mention a prisoner, named Li Xin." ”

Li Xin instigated the mob to make trouble, and the county has already arrested him, and it was agreed that he would be beheaded after the autumn. I don't know what crime he committed in Shandong again? Song Zhixian asked

"Huh?" Situ Gong's face was ordinary, and he shouted loudly: "The case handled by Jinyi Wei is also something that you can ask as a little magistrate?" ”

Song Zhixian was bored with himself, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that the two adults have official documents?" ”

"Bastard thing!" Situ Gong stepped forward and slapped him twice, "The documents of Jinyiwei's case are also worthy of you to read?" ”

Song Zhixian covered his cheeks and said with a sad face: "Yes, yes, the lower official is guilty." Come on, immediately bring Li Xin out and hand it over to the two adults. ”

Li Xin, who had been imprisoned for many days, was described as haggard, his belly was full of resentment, and he was also unpleasant when he saw Situ Gong and others. Knowing that Situ Gong sent Song Youliang's documents and Bi Maokang's letters, he was overjoyed.

"It's rare that Lord Song and Meng Hougong value it so much, I, Li Xin, will definitely have all my ambitions, show them to the fullest, and die with all my might." Li Xin's eyes were red with joy

Situ Gong said: "Then Gongzi Li will set off today, don't let my family wait for a long time." ”

"Wait~" Li Xin said: "I can't just go to see Lord Song and Mr. Meng Hou, I have to prepare a meeting gift." ”

Situ Gong smiled: "My family is rich and rich, so you don't need a meeting gift, right?" ”

Li Xin said with a smile: "It's not gold and silver property, but a few heroes and heroes." ”

On the top of Songshan Mountain in Dengfeng County, a woman wearing a red dress and carrying a steel knife at her waist is standing on a boulder and looking into the distance, this person is the red lady. The direction she looked at was Qixian, "Li Gongzi~!" Seeing the idiot, the red lady couldn't help but murmur

It was a sunny morning, on this day, the team of the red lady came to Henan County, in a vacant lot in the downtown of the county to start the scene, after a burst of passionate and compact gongs and drums, the field was quickly surrounded by citizens who came to see the excitement, all raised their heads to wait and see, waiting for the show to play. Because it is the first performance in the local area, it must be a good start to calm the audience, the red lady slightly put on makeup, and she was the first to appear, her specialty is rope skills, two high poles have already been erected on the field, and a chopstick-thick wire rope is held on the head of the pole one foot high from the ground, which shines in the sun. I saw that the red lady was wearing a bright red short backrest, a silver wide belt was tightly tied around the waist, her thin waist and breasts, and her slender and toned figure were outlined vividly and movingly.

After the red lady appeared, a swallow turned over suddenly, and then gently and skillfully jumped on the wire rope more than a foot high, and stood on it with one foot and swayed leisurely; Then, I saw her willow waist swinging lightly, walking back and forth on the tightrope, her hands dancing gracefully with her empty hands; After a moment's pause, he suddenly went upward, flipped a beautiful somersault in the air, and landed steadily on the tightrope; Next is a string of cranes independent, milk swallows spread their wings, dragons out of the water, Caifeng Chaoyang's skill movements, provoked the audience below to exclaim for a while, at this time, a gust of wind blew in the clearing, blowing the wire rope at the height of the rope, as if to swing the red lady down, but her series of somersaults, sometimes looking about to fall down, but always able to stabilize just right, the audience can't help but applaud loudly. It was another thrilling action, and the red lady heard a frightened cry from the outer circle of the audience, which was incompatible with the cheers around her.

After standing away for a while, she looked down at the place where the cry was called, and it turned out to be a young Gongyu, who was looking at herself with wide eyes and horror, and saw him standing a little far from the audience circle, holding a white horse in his hand, as if he had just arrived. Just when the red lady looked down and looked at each other, she couldn't help but feel a palpitation in her heart, like an electric shock, why did she suddenly be distracted by her experienced performance? Just because the child's eyes showed a look of sincere concern and worry, which she rarely saw, not to mention that this was from a handsome and elegant young man, how could it not make her heart flutter!

This person is Li Xin
