Li Ri knew: "That small village is not badly built, it can be seen that it is a lot of effort!" ”

He really wondered in his heart, the horses did not move their belongings, but they were not afraid to make great efforts to build a village for the emperor and empress to rest, was this to please the emperor and empress?

Robbers please the emperor, this is really unheard of, if the robbers have loyalty, then why be a robber, theoretically speaking, this doesn't make sense!

Wang Erhao took Li Rizhi to a post house more than three miles outside the city, this post station was built alone on the side of the road, the area is not small, because there is a purpose to prevent thieves, so the wall is relatively high, there is only one gate in and out, and a small door is dug out of the inside of the gate, and there are small windows above the small door, at this time the doors and windows are closed, and there are no pedestrians around.

Wang Erhao pointed to the post station and said, "Those family members are locked up here." ”

Looking at the surrounding environment, Li Rizhi believed that the officials' families were locked up here, but he believed it, how could he get in, there were only two of them, and they couldn't rush in to save people!

Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves on the side of the avenue, Li Rizhi and Wang Erhao hurriedly hid behind a tree on the side of the road, and saw a man in the clothes of a servant galloping past on horseback until he reached the door of the post house, and this man jumped off his horse and slammed the door.

The small window opened, and someone inside poked his head out and shouted, "What's the matter, what's wrong?" ”

The man outside said a few words, then got on his horse and returned the way he came.

In a short time, the gate of the post house opened, and five or six people rushed out of it, all dressed in the clothes of the officials, and galloped out on horseback, each carrying a package on his horseback.

After going out, one of them wanted to close the gate again, but was stopped by the other person, and the gate was not closed, but half opened, and several people galloped away.

Seeing those people leaving, Li Rizhi came out from behind the tree and said, "It is estimated that this gang of ringing horses is going to escape, this is the beginning of the evacuation, but this is okay, we can go in and save people!" ”

Wang Erhao trotted to the door of the post house and said, "These ringing horses don't even close the door, aren't they afraid that someone will go in, won't they save everyone!" ”

Li Rizhi snorted and said: "They just want to let others go in to save people, if no one goes in to save people, then in case the people inside are starved to death, or if something happens, the government will not let them go even if they chase them to the ends of the earth, but if no one is killed, then there will always be the possibility of covering up the past!" ”

Wang Erhao is also a person who begs for a living in the county yamen, although he is just a servant, but at least he has a little knowledge, and after listening to it, he nodded again and again, so far, there is really no death in the yamen of Bocheng County, as for whether the real county order was killed, he doesn't know.

After entering the post house, they saw that the yard was very clean, there was no mess, the two walked through the front yard, and after arriving at the backyard, they saw that several main houses in the backyard were locked, and the house was quiet, and I don't know if there was anyone.

Li Rizhi stepped forward and patted the window and asked, "Is there anyone inside?" ”

There was no one in the room to answer, not a sound at all.

Li Rizhi pushed the window, but didn't open it, he said again: "Xiangma escaped, this official was sent by Chang'an to rescue you, you are the family members of the officials of Bocheng County, right?" ”

Someone whispered in the room, and after a while, the voice became louder, and then there was crying, and then someone shouted for help, and someone banged on the door and window!

Wang Erhao hurriedly found a stone in the courtyard, smashed the door lock, the house was dark, there were many people inside, after the sun shone in, these people all blocked their eyes with their hands and exclaimed.

Li Rizhi also saw clearly that the people in the house were all women and children, there were about a dozen people, judging from the clothes, they were all quite neat, and they didn't seem to be abused.

Li Rizhi shouted at the house: "Are you all the family members of the officials of Bocheng County? Who isn't? ”

None of the women and children inside answered this sentence, if the current situation is tacit, then it means that they are all family members of Bocheng County officials.

Then Li Rizhi asked again: "Then which of you is the family member of the officials of Bocheng County?" ”

This was answered immediately, and all the women in the room burst into tears at the same time, and when the children saw the woman crying, they began to cry along!

Li Rizhi took a cursory glance at the expressions of the women in the room, and found that the expressions of all the women were true feelings, and they were by no means fake, so he relieved himself.

Li Rizhi asked the women to come out with the children, and then said to Wang Erhao: "You go to the kitchen to find some hot water, let everyone wash their faces and wipe their hands, and if there is hot soup or food, you can also bring it!" ”

Wang Erhao had the heart to persuade Li Rizhi to leave here quickly, after all, this is still a dangerous place, and it may be dangerous to stay here, in case the horses go and return, wouldn't it be bad, they can be blocked in the post station directly, and they can't escape if they want to.

However, Li Rizhi didn't give him this opportunity, just waved his hand and asked Wang Erhao to do things immediately, Wang Erhao had no choice but to go to the water to find food.

Li Rizhi asked the women to bring the children to the courtyard, and when they stood in the courtyard, the space became larger, and the fear in the hearts of the women and children was alleviated, and their emotions slowly returned to normal.

Li Rizhi frowned and asked, "Since you are all family members of the officials of Bocheng County, how can you be locked up here together, what is going on?" You tell me, I am a supervision envoy sent by Chang'an Zhongshu Province, my surname is Li, you can tell me if you have any grievances, I can make decisions for you! ”

He said this in a big way, but listening to the ears of the women greatly relieved them.

So the women began to talk about what had happened, and they had all experienced terrible things themselves, so of course it was very bitter to talk about it, almost to the point that they would cry when they said a word.

Li Rizhi didn't interject, basically whatever the women said, he just listened silently, only humming a few times occasionally, which means that he was still listening, and he was sympathetic to the women's suffering.

In fact, if the bitter part of what the women said is removed, then these women can be regarded as pitiful and hateful, but their actions have affected their own children, but the children are innocent, and they are unlucky with them.

The husbands of these women are all officials in Bocheng County, and they are all officials with relatively high positions, and what these officials have in common is that they all got a good deal from Wu Penghui's hands.
