Zhang Xian saw the fifth uncle running in from a distance, and hurriedly walked towards the fifth uncle, asking:

"Fifth uncle, what happened to Nianxin?" Zhang Xian's heart was also tight, and he asked eagerly.

"My lord, Mrs. Nianxin heard that the second elder was kidnapped by my shameless eldest brother, that is, my uncle, in order to blackmail the adult to go to the court, saying that he found that the adult was raising private soldiers, intending to rebel, and there were also county officials Ding returned to the county office, accused the adult of gangsters and brutalized them, the county official and several eldest brothers wanted to arrest the adult and send him to prison for questioning, but they were worried that the adult's subordinate family Ding really rebelled, so he tied up the adult's father and mother, and wanted to beat people to confess their guilt and lay down the law. As a result, they were all arrested. The fifth uncle wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and talked about what happened.

Everyone saw that Zhang Xian's face was getting heavier and heavier, stood for a while, and said to Wang Fu: "It seems that this official is still too kind to the clan uncles, if you don't completely solve the affairs in the family this time, I'm afraid that this official will not be at peace, let alone show his ambitions outside in the future." ”

After Zhang Xian finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back, closed his eyes, thought quietly for a while, and then turned around and called Niu Dameng back, whispered, Niu Dameng listened, and ran out with a few family members, Zhang Xian looked at Niu Dameng's departing figure, staring into the distance with his eyes like torches, and said softly: "There is a head of the King of Labor to go with this official, and let's see the evil of human nature in this world together." ”

Wang Fu looked at Zhang Xian and wanted to say something, but seeing Zhang Xian's slightly angry expression, he suppressed the conversation and left the valley with Zhang Xian.

.

Zhangjia ancestral hall, hundreds of people on both sides of the road outside the ancestral hall are densely packed with family members newly recruited by the clan uncle, dressed in a purple suit, all five big and three thick, with a horizontal face, oozing a fierce and evil appearance, near the entrance of the ancestral hall There are also two teams of twenty county government sergeants wearing bright light armor.

In the ancestral hall, Zhang Xian's parents and concubine Nian Xin Ben were tied to the pillar in the middle of the ancestral hall. Zhang Xian's father was shouting at the person sitting on the chair of the ancestral hall with angry eyes:

"I used to ask you to wait for a brother, after all, we have the same father, the same mother and the same blood, even if you don't miss family affection, try every possible way to empty the family property, occupy the position of the patriarch, I have never asked you any questions, I can't imagine that you are now losing your conscience, and this court dog official wants to put our family to death, from now on, I will no longer have such a brother who is inferior to such a beast. The sky has eyes, my son not only did not die, but also inherited the position of the patriarch, and did not dishonor the emperor's order, paid the emperor's errand, and waited for thousands of calculations, after all, it was a smile and generosity, and you thought that if you caught our family, my son would obediently tie his hands and arrest him. ”

Zhang Xian's father splattered and scolded, the person on the Taishi chair was the county order, and there was a gorgeously dressed middle-aged man wearing a Confucian shirt standing under the Taishi chair, but this man's facial features looked upright, but a wicked spirit oozed from his eyes, and the left and right sides were naturally Zhang Xian's three uncles, and below were Zhang Xian's uncles' sons, and there was a layer of thugs in purple clothes around him.

After the gang was counted down by Zhang Xian's father, Zhang Xian's uncles turned pale, and the county commander frowned, a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said:

"In front of this official, how can you allow you to quibble? Not to mention that your son Zhang Xian killed the soldiers who escorted grain and grass in this county, even if he raised soldiers privately, he also had a major crime of rebellion, any crime is enough for you to raid your house and destroy the door, to this day, you old Diao people are still so dishonest, and when you go to the court, the official will definitely let you taste the power of the county government's torture tools. After the county official finished speaking, he smiled at the middle-aged man next to him, revealing a flattering expression, and the middle-aged man also smiled at the county order, seemingly very satisfied.

"Dog officer, what kind of murder soldiers, raising soldiers, that's all your dog officer's words, the old body has long known that you and my Zhang family's white-eyed wolf uncles are in collusion, hollowing out the family property of my Zhang family, you don't want to repay the emperor's favor as an official, but you take advantage of it, for the disaster party, the heavens are clear, you are not afraid of retribution?" When Zhang Xian's mother heard that the county order charged her son with murder and rebellion, the licking of the calf instantly made her angry, and she cried and scolded the county official.

"You, you, you....... You old shrew, insult the official in front of the court, come, give me a slap. After speaking, the two servants rushed towards Zhang Xian's mother.

"Slow, whoever dares to beat my mother-in-law, the little woman will fight with whoever she wants today, the big deal is that she will hit the wall and die today, let my mother-in-law go, and the little woman will be killed by you." Nianxin looked at the county official who rushed over, with a fierce look on his face, thinking that if this official really slapped his mother-in-law, not to mention whether his mother-in-law could still live if he was so humiliated, even if he lived, how could he have the face to face his father-in-law? That's a father-in-law who has always been in love with himself, for the sake of his mother-in-law and father-in-law, and for his father-in-law, and now he has to suffer on behalf of his mother-in-law.

"Hmph, you are in front of the vegetable market? Can you bargain? Since you, a woman, want to suffer for others, then you will be beaten by this official, and the family members of the rebels and thieves are innocent, where is the left and right? Unless you knock out the teeth of these two women, you are not allowed to stop. ”

"Dog official, even if you kill the old body, you are also a corrupt official, you have the ability to go to the street to listen, what ordinary people don't say that you are a corrupt official who destroys the family and destroys the door?"

After listening to the order of the county order, the official saw that the old woman was still hard-mouthed, walked to Zhang Xian's mother with a cruel smile, bit her lip, stared at her eyes, picked up her huge right hand, and was about to fight, Zhang Xian's father hurriedly stood in front and glared at the officer, and Nianxin also hurriedly stood in front of her mother-in-law and father-in-law, closed her eyes, bit her lip, stretched out her face, and prepared to be beaten by the storm for her mother-in-law.

At this critical moment, Nian Xin heard "Ah! With a bang, the strong wind that was about to fall on his face stopped abruptly, and Nianxin hurriedly opened his eyes to see that the official had a flying knife in his hand, his face was hideous in pain, and he curled up on the ground and exhaled in pain. Standing behind his father-in-law was Wang Jiaotou, judging from the gesture of Wang Jiaotou's retraction, this flying knife shot at the official should be shot by Wang Jiaotou, Nian was moved in his heart, his eyes were hot, and tears fell down without obeying the call, so he listened to Zhang Xian who was not in a hurry or slow, and said to the dog officer in front of him with a mocking expression:

"You, a county official, have good skills, do you want to play official power or do you want to bend into a trick?" Zhang Xian stared at the county order, turned his face to look at several clan uncles, and continued:

"Since a few clan uncles have tied up the official's family members with their cousins, they just want to throw themselves into the net before the official, and now that the official is here, I don't know how the clan uncles plan to divide the family property with the county lord?"

Zhang Xian's uncles' expressions were uncertain, but the county order opened his mouth: "What a big thief, I don't even want the etiquette, righteousness and shame of a scholar today?" Dare to ridicule this official, Zhang Xian, you committed a mortal crime, but now you have thrown yourself into the net, and you dare to hurt people, do you think you can still get out of this gate today? Someone's coming, tie up the two thieves for me! After speaking, all the surrounding officials "uproar", all pulled out their waist knives, ready to arrest Zhang Xian, the county order saw that Zhang Xian actually threw himself into the net, it was originally carefully designed, but the trap forced by Zhang Xian's parents could not be used, the young man is a young man, even if he is proud for a while, it will not become a climate after all.

"Slow down, I'll see who dares to be presumptuous in the Zhang Family Ancestral Hall! I said, are you kidding? This is the ancestral hall of the Zhang family, I am the patriarch of the Zhang family, in my own family, I can't go out, it seems that the county respects can't interfere, right? Besides, what crime did the judge commit? Does the county lord want to judge before the trial, ignore the law of my Great Song Dynasty, and despise the law of the country for your greed? If that's all it takes, now, you dare to kidnap my parents, wives and concubines to coerce my officials, and do this, can't you still ridicule you? Zhang Xian's eyes stared coldly at the county order, and the words were like knives when he asked about the county order, and the officials around him also looked at each other.

After all, this county order is also the hob meat that has been rolling in the sea for many years, and was scolded by Zhang Xianshu, and he was a little flustered at first, but after looking at the middle-aged man beside him, he suddenly came to his senses again, and said:

"Good thief, since the official said that you are guilty, it must be conclusive evidence of the crime, the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, you can't allow you to quibble, you are a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect yourself, you still dare to threaten the official, can't you see that all around are your uncle and the officials of this county? Even if I kill you now, it is just to pinch a small ant to death, or not, seeing that you paid the imperial mission for this county, let you die to understand, Daniel Zhang, you can talk about the following things. ”

The county commander squinted his eyes and finished speaking, staring at Daniel Zhang, so Daniel Zhang immediately stood up on his toes and said to Zhang Xian with a smile:

"Zhang Xian, the grain officer of Chaben County, in the process of escorting grain and grass, fornicated with mountain bandits, and after being informed by the soldiers who escorted grain and grass, the suspect Zhang Xian actually moved privately to prevent the matter from being exposed, broke his hamstrings, and let the mountain bandits go; Check again, Zhang Xian in the mountain behind the ancestral hall of the Zhang family, raising thousands of soldiers, intending to rebel, the existing county grain and grass rhyme the confession of the soldiers, there are people of their own clan to see thousands of men enter the back mountain of the confession, the evidence is conclusive, the crime is extremely evil, on the order of the county lord, the suspect Zhang Xian will be detained, to be sentenced in the autumn after the Ming Dynasty. After Daniel Zhang finished speaking, he walked to Zhang Xian without smiling and whispered:

"You fake cousin, now whether you are true or fake, such a heinous crime, your family will not escape death now, you see, the three layers in this ancestral hall and the outer three floors are all cousins and my newly cultivated family members, in terms of strength and strength far better than your fancy fist embroidered legs, you can't escape from the wings. However, cousin, I also have a merciful heart, and the county lord also said, your rhyming food is also considered meritorious, if you want to live, there is a way now, I don't know if you will go, cousin? Zhang Xian whispered and looked at Zhang Xian with his eyes.

Zhang Xian smiled noncommittally at Daniel Zhang, and behind his hands, he said with a light look:

"Oh, I don't know if my cousin is so benevolent and righteous, according to my cousin's meaning, do you want this official to hand over the position of patriarch?"

"It is necessary to hand over the position of the patriarch, and you must hand over the family members who have been trained, which are also the property of my clan, so as to save your family's life." Daniel Zhang turned around and said gloomily, Daniel Zhang knows the power of that gang of family dings, if he has such an elite family ding, even if it is this county order, he can not put it in his eyes at all, so as not to be angry with him all day, thinking of this, Daniel Zhang couldn't help laughing.
