Chapter 0053 Then it's ten thousand taels
Gu Yun leaned towards Gu Feng's side, Mu Cheng's people didn't dare to snatch the letter, only to see that Mu Cheng's face was even more ugly. The letter was addressed to Ma Santai, signed by Mu Cheng, and the content stated that Gu Feng had told the county magistrate about the loss of military horses in Mujia Village. Gu Feng escorted Mu Cheng and the six people, and went to find the county magistrate with the letter.
The county magistrate completely believed that Mu Cheng was not a good scholar as Gu Feng said. The next day, I went to the barracks, and after the mediation of the county commander, I found Ding Tong and Wang Shun and asked about the loss of military horses.
Mr. Ma Qian did not admit that he had lost the military horse at first, but the county commander lit up the two military horses brought by Mu Cheng, and Mr. Ma Qian had nothing to say.
At this time, the county commander went to say again that he was just investigating the case on the order of the prefect, and when he replied to the official document, he would say that there was no such thing, and then, the lost horses of Lord Qianzong would be replaced by Mu Cheng's money. As for the property found in the Hou Mansion, as well as the master's family property, they can all be used as funds for the purchase of military horses.
Where did Mr. Ma Qian stop the county magistrate from interrogating Ding Tong and Wang Shun? After asking Ma Santai about the loss of his military horse as a bad neighbor, the county commander left the barracks. Just when the county magistrate returned to the government and turned his face to report the crimes of Ma Santai's father and son to the prefect, Ma Qian also woke up and hurriedly led troops to the county government to ask for money, but as soon as he arrived outside the county, he found that the gate of the county was closed and had been blocked by arms, and he sent people to the other three gates to see, and it was the same, no one was allowed to enter or leave.
It turned out that as soon as the county commander came out of the barracks, he decided what he wanted to do, and when he entered the county office, he sent someone to send a letter to the prefect of the prefecture. Ma Qian never dared to attack the county government, knowing that the general trend had gone, and the disaster that his son brought to himself this time was about to inevitably come. Those acts of colluding with village officials to sell grain are also criminal acts of entrapping the people and harming the people.
Soon after Ma Qianzong withdrew his troops, he was arrested by the prefect and some low-level officials in the barracks, along with the assistance of the army. In the county government of Guantang County, Mu Cheng was dismissed from his fame, he looked at the county magistrate and wanted to defend himself, but the county magistrate told him in a loud voice: "Your virtue is also in vain to participate in the township examination!" Mu Cheng saw that he couldn't intercede, so he immediately changed his face and said, "Then the adult wants me to recruit Xiucai's pen fee is too expensive, right?" 10,000 taels of silver sold to me for a year? ”
The county magistrate was stunned by him, and replied to him casually: "What about your first place?" ”
"First place? I got it for five hundred stone of grain. Mu Cheng's voice was raised very high, but it did not frighten the county order, but made him return to his seat as if relieved, and leisurely touched his chin and said something that made Mu Cheng stunned.
"Mu Cheng! I originally wanted to let you go home like this, so that you can save your life and farm and do business without showing off your talents, and maybe you can live a good life as a rich man, but you are talking nonsense here and framing me for embezzling your money, how can the innocence of this official be casually framed by you, a yellow-haired boy, with red lips and white teeth? Then you have only one way to die, after your death, the prefect of the official Shangsu, you are in a gang with Ma Santai, and when you were arrested, you tried to resist and were mistakenly killed by the officials. Hehehe......"
When Gu Feng heard this, a cold breath rose from his back spine, and at the same time, his mouth also spewed out resentment. Gu Yun grabbed one of his younger brother's arms with his hand, and only stood quietly in place. Mu Cheng, who was surprised and showed a look of regret, continued to perform, knelt in front of the county magistrate with a "plop", and said with tears in his nose: "Teacher, teacher!" It's the students who are confused for a while, and they say those bastard words, which are all nonsense, and the students are confused for a while, want to save their lives, and talk nonsense. You don't remember the villain, you let me go like a fart, right? I will send you another five thousand taels of silver at once. ”
"Really?" The prefectural magistrate said with a smile, and inadvertently slashed Mu Cheng's neck with a knife from a government official, oozing blood.
"Really...... It's true! ”
"Then 10,000 taels! You take your own money to buy your own life! ”
Mu Cheng temporarily lived in the county government and asked his subordinates to go home and get money. At this time, although Gu Feng really wanted to help others clean up this county magistrate, he really didn't have a proper way for a while, so he had to decide to leave here. So Gu Feng said goodbye to the county magistrate, saying that he was going to Fucheng to find a famous person to study. The county magistrate also pretended to leave the ancient style, and they served as officials for him here to protect his safety. I especially want to stay with Shi Gaocai, Ah Si, Qin Dui, and Xia Kun, so where is this possibility? Even Ah Si is unwilling to stay, even if he is a head catcher.
Gu Feng and his party went out of the city, and Gu Yun felt that there were always people staring and following them. Gu Feng decided not to go to Fucheng, so he went back to the county seat to find Miss Huafuhua and ask about her parents. As soon as I entered Huajiazhuang, a small urban village, I heard the sound of crying and firecrackers, and then saw the smoke of burning paper money.
It turned out that her parents, Huaxian Cheng and his wife returned home after treatment from the pharmacy, and their condition was not light, but it was getting worse and worse. In other words, Huaxian Cheng and his wife just went home to see their only daughter for the last time and passed away one after another. It turned out that Gu Feng and the others had seen with their own eyes the capriciousness of the Lord of Guantang County, and Gu Feng realized his dangerous situation at this time, could it be that just because a few of them knew about the transaction between the Lord of the County Order and Mu Cheng, they would kill people?
Although Gu Feng is not afraid of the defeat of the few remnants of the county order, the county commander has the privilege of asking the troops to help in the future, and it is not a wise move for Gu Feng and a few of them to fight with the government after all, and they can't take advantage of it. Gu Feng wanted to meet Hua Xiancheng, and also to see if Xiaoyu and the three girls could live in Hua Ruyi's house for a long time, and also to see if they could find a way out of Huafu, so they saw this situation.
Thinking about this Miss Hua Ruyi, there are no brothers and sisters, no brothers and sisters, how will a lonely and weak woman live? I've cried and fainted a few times in the past two days. Even Xiaoyu and the others, who temporarily lived in Huafu, were sad and wept for the great change in Miss Hua's fate. Now that they are both hard-working women, I really don't know what to do. Fortunately, Gu Feng and they went and returned, and when they saw Gu Feng and Gu Yun, Hua Ruyi was the first to pounce into Gu Yun's arms. Everyone else was startled, their eyes widened in surprise, and they all wondered, is this Miss Hua too sad and stupid? Throw yourself into the arms of a strange boy? Of course, people who know know that Gu Yun is Gu Feng's sister and Gu Feng's newly married wife, and she is a woman. There are still many people who don't know! The neighbors of Huafu and Huajiazhuang don't know.
In this way, under the auspices of Gu Feng, the Hua County Cheng couple were successfully buried, because it was a funeral sent by a distant nephew of the Hua family, and the old housekeeper has done his best to the Hua family for many years, Miss Hua generously gave a large part of the property to the old housekeeper's family, and gave most of the land to the brother of the same clan. Then he sold the rest of his possessions into cash, distributed them to the servants in the house, and exchanged them for silver tickets to carry with him. This surprised everyone, including Gu Feng, "What is Miss Hua doing?" ”
