Li Wenyuan and Zong Luohu also looked at each other when they heard the words of the county order, and this was really the first time they had encountered someone who took corruption for granted. Li Wenyuan looked at the dead soldier who came over later, the dead soldier had already recorded everything described in the county order, and after letting the county order confirm that it was correct, he took Zhu Ni and let the county order press his hand.

Li Wenyuan put away the document that recorded the confession of the county order and said to him: "Do you know where Li Mao lives in the city? ”

The county magistrate nodded and said, "Li Mao's residence was arranged by me, and he lived in the post house in the city where the post envoy rested. ”

Li Wenyuan asked a few of his subordinates to strictly guard the county order, and sent another subordinate to inform Zhang Juntai to lead the troops back to Yongdeng County, intercept Li Mao's convoy to transport money and bring it back along the way, and then went to the post house mentioned in the county order with Zong Luohu.

This post house has just been renovated during the opening of the emperor's reign, and there is not much sense of dilapidation, but after a long time, it is definitely not how luxurious and conspicuous. As soon as Li Wenyuan and Zong Luohu entered the post house, they were stopped: "Eh, this is where the officials live, you want to rest, go to the inn at the corner of the street, the food is good, and the store is clean." ”

Li Wenyuan waved his hand: "We are not ordinary people, we are ordered to investigate some things secretly, and we have nothing to do with you, so we have to meddle in our affairs." ”

The guy wanted to say a few more words of obstruction, Li Wenyuan's face suddenly sank, and he was a little angry: "I have made it clear to you, the stakes are very high, are you in league with those thieves for stopping us repeatedly?" As he spoke, he handed Zong Luohu a look. Zong Luohu understood and made a posture to catch people. At that time, the man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said tremblingly:

"A few officials, the villain is really an honest person, but there are rules in this post house, and civilians are not allowed to enter, so they collided with the two officials, don't blame the officials."

Li Wenyuan said: "Let me ask you, is there a person from Wuwei County living here in the post house?" It was a person who was arranged by the prefectural order. ”

"If you go back to the official master, there is such a person, who lives in the Tianzi number upstairs." The young man replied on his knees, not even daring to raise his head.

"What's that man's name?" Li Wenyuan asked.

"Back to the official, his name is Li Mao."

"And he's in the room?"

"Yes, I just ordered food, this should be almost finished."

Li Wenyuan nodded, stretched out his hand to pull up the kneeling guy, and said, "You go, get a pot of hot water and follow me upstairs." ”

The young man didn't dare to be disobedient, nodded and went to the back kitchen to boil water.

Zong Luohu looked at Li Wenyuan and said with a smile: "General, you are really very prestigious." ”

"What kind of official authority is nothing more than human nature. Nine times out of ten in this world, they are bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and the slightest intimidation will reveal their true form. Li Wenyuan said with a smile.

Not long after, Li Wenyuan saw that the guy came out with a pot of hot water, so he took the guy to the door of Tianzihao. Li Wenyuan has already explained this way, and the young man knocked on the door and said, "Master, the little one brought you hot water." ”

A scolding came from the door: "Get out, you don't need it now, I'll come back later." ”

Li Wenyuan listened sincerely, and nodded at Zong Luohu, this voice was the voice of Li Mao that he heard that day. Under Li Wenyuan's signal, the young man answered the house, and then went downstairs directly.

Seeing that Li Wenyuan gave him a look, Zong Luohu nodded immediately, took a half step back, raised his foot and kicked the door open, and then Zong Luohu also followed.

Li Mao in the room was eating heartily, and suddenly there was a loud noise at the door, so he didn't have time to chew the food in his mouth, so he swallowed it together, and he couldn't go up and down.

Zong Luohu guarded the only window, and Li Wenyuan followed in and locked the door, so he came to help Li Maoshun choke on food. Li Mao was about to choke and roll his eyes, where did he still have the intention of escaping? With the help of Li Wenyuan, Li Mao finally swallowed the lump of food, and then gasped for breath and said, "Who are you?" Don't knock before entering? Nearly didn't kill me. ”

Li Wenyuan smiled: "Li Mao, Li Liang's brother, why did I come to you, you don't have any points in your heart?" ”

Li Mao finally reacted at this time: "You are the group that captured Hulu." ”

Li Wenyuan nodded: "That's right, it's just us." ”

Li Mao looked back at Zong Luohu who was guarding the window behind him, and Li Wenyuan, who was guarding the door, and finally gave up the idea of escaping and said, "What are you doing with me?" ”

Li Wenyuan tied up Li Mao, who was very cooperative, and said, "We already know about the fact that you came here to supervise the transportation of money, and if you want to suffer less crimes, give me an honest explanation." ”

Li Mao twisted his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”

Li Wenyuan took out a short knife, glanced at Li Mao with a smile, and then pressed it against Li Mao's waist and abdomen, and then slashed lightly. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew on Li Mao's waist, causing a layer of goosebumps on the skin on Li Mao's waist. But what Li Mao felt even more uneasy was the smiling look on Li Wenyuan's face now.

Li Wenyuan saw that there was no clothes on Li Mao's waist to get in the way, so he put down the knife. Then he stood up and kicked Li Mao to the ground with a fierce kick. Just when Li Mao was mentally preparing to be tortured, Li Wenyuan rode on Li Mao in Zong Luohu's surprised eyes, and scraped Li Mao's ribs with his arched fingers. Every time I scrape, I ask Li Mao again. Scrape until Li Mao's saliva flowed all over the ground, and when his eyes were about to roll, a basin of cold water splashed Li Mao awake, and then continued to scrape. In the end, Li Mao was so painful and itchy, and when he was a little out of breath, he finally nodded with the last bit of self-control, and said hysterically: "I said, you fucking stop, I said, I'll say it." ”

Li Wenyuan withdrew his hand, stood aside, clasped his hands to his chest and said, "Li Mao, do you remember?" Speak up, I'll listen. ”

"I just came to supervise the transportation of Yongdeng County's money on my brother's orders, and I don't know anything else." Li Mao said while panting, and then saw Li Wenyuan squatting down again, stretched out his hand to his waist, and hurriedly said with tears in his eyes: "Ah! And also! Also, talk to Hulu about the matter of being self-reliant and being crowned Duluo Khan, I know so much, I'm just a messenger, you spare me, I really don't know anything. ”

Li Wenyuan saw Li Mao crying on the ground, and he didn't seem to be hiding it, so he said to Zong Luohu: "It seems that we still have to go to Wuwei County to have a definite result." ”

Zong Luohu nodded, looked at Li Mao, who was crying and crying on the ground, and looked at Li Wenyuan with a strange expression. In response to him, Li Wenyuan shrugged helplessly.
