Chapter 18: Bandits in the Lake

Before the meeting, Xu Qing rescued an old boatman who was boiling in the water, and learned from him that there were often bandits in this lake. For this kind of dark matter, Xu Qing is most willing to inquire, you must know that the things and property in a bandit village may be worth several small landlords. Therefore, after Xu Qing returned home, a member of the Dark River came to report immediately.

The news is that big households raise bandits, bandits bully outsiders, the government is powerless, it is difficult to shake the bandits, the governor has come here, and the good people are guilty.

Oh? Xu Qing asked, like Cangzhou, those big families raise their own private soldiers?

No, unlike Cangzhou, the bandits here are not raised by a family, but are inherently there. Those big ones are just paying money on a monthly basis.

It turned out that this was the case, Xu Qing remembered that almost all the big households in Qiantang were in business, and it was common to cross the lake and river to transport goods, and the bandits did not have that ability, so a parasitic and mutualistic relationship was formed. The local merchants gave the lake bandits a monthly payment, and the lake bandits reduced the number of foreign competitors to the local merchants, and both sides made their own fortunes.

That is the case, that is to say, if the Cangzhou Chamber of Commerce wants to step in, it still needs to break this protective film?

After a short rest, Xun Xueer and the others came back, and they laughed constantly when they entered the door, holding gorgeous Hangzhou silk, West Lake tea, West Lake lotus root powder, Jingshan tea, West Lake silk umbrella, Xiaoshan dried radish, and Lin'an pecans.

He pulled Xu Qing to talk non-stop, and he was happy to share everything he saw on the street, even if it was brick and tile.

There is little gossip, there is a way that two flowers bloom, each with a branch, saying that after Chen Yili returned to the county office, he was still restless and uneasy. Take the West Lake travel book written by Xu Qing, rhyme with the verses, and recite it over and over again.

The more I read, the more I felt that my hand couldn't wipe the scroll, and I remembered Luonan Xu Gong, Cangzhou Xu Gong, Luonan Xu Chuliu, these things, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, could it be that this Xu Chuliu is Cangzhou Thorn History, Wenzong Xu Qing?!

No, it's impossible, Cangzhou is thousands of miles away, how can it ......

But in today's world, who can write such an article, alas, as far as I know, there should be no one else, right?

No, you have to figure it out, Chen Yili thought to himself, yes, Shangguanyi, isn't he Xu Chuliu's friend? Ask him about it!

rushed to Shangguanyi's residence overnight.

"You Shao, there is a sentence that I have been holding in my heart for a long time," Chen Yili affectionately grabbed Shangguan Yi's hand and said: "The moon is full today, the weather is just right, take this good day, I want to talk to you in detail." ”

"Ah......" Shangguan Yi took a step back, and seemed to be a little flustered in his heart: "Chen, Chen County Order, you have something to say." ”

"That's right," Chen Yili paused: "You Shao, let me ask you a question, and you have to answer me truthfully." ”

"Okay, as long as it's not that ......" Shangguan Yi suppressed the heart that was about to jump out.

"You Shao, Xu Chuliu, is it the history of Cangzhou Thorn, Wenzong Xu Qing?"

"Ah, you ask this......" Shangguan Yi let out a sigh: "Hahaha, since Chen County Order found out, then I won't hide it." Yes, the Xu Chuliu I saw during the day is the history of Cangzhou Thorn, the first person in today's literary world, Xu Qing is also! ”

"I don't believe ......" After Chen Yili learned the truth, he didn't believe it, so he wanted someone to ask the doctor if I had a neuropathy, and the doctor said that you did, and that person would reply, and you would have a neuropathy.

"Hahaha, Chen County Ling doesn't know, Xu Qing had a common name before he entered the center, named Xu Chuliu." Shangguan Yi said with a smile: "Last month, Xu Tingshi resigned and went around the sea route from Cangzhou to Qiantang. That's why Xu Gong went to the Wenhui......"

"Woohoo! Ignore the name of Yi, listen to the name of Xi, Bo Zhi can not be called Wei, now the road to the side, I am "Yi, Xi, Wei" three share, is the world's first fool is also! ”

"Chen Gong is modest, uh, no, Chen Gong, Chen Gong......" Shangguan Yi didn't expect Chen Yili to be so excited, and it was difficult to prevaricate for a while.

"You Shao!" Chen Yili grabbed Shangguan Yi's shoulder, looked him in the eye and asked, "What kind of person am I in your heart?!" ”

"Also... Shi Yiyou, I don't know what Chen Gong means by asking this question? ”

"You Shao, can you let me see Xu Gong again?" Chen Yili almost pleaded.

Shangguan Yi sighed and said, "Okay, I'll visit Xu Qing tomorrow, will you come with me?" ”

"Good brother! Hahahaha......" Chen Yili laughed.

But Sun Youcai couldn't laugh.

Not only couldn't he laugh, he was almost crying, if it weren't for some of his wives and concubines next to him, he might have to secretly wipe his tears.

And now, he can only cover his bottom and scream in pain, his side hurts, and it hurts when he lies flat. What happened down there, no one dared to open it to see, but they just found ice water outside and slowly applied it to Sun Youcai.

"Get out!" Sun Youcai scolded: "Get out! Women all get out of here! ”

Sun Youcai is in the liver and intestines, even if it hurts so much below, when he sees a woman, he should still be big. So only one out of sight came and drove out all the women.

The crying women left, leaving a room of dumbfounded men, the so-called rabbit dead fox sorrow, they saw Sun Youcai rolling in pain under him, and couldn't help but shrink the meatballs.

"Turn around, turn around......" Sun Youcai said in a trembling voice, and everyone turned their heads honestly. Sun Youcai opened the hem of his clothes by the candlelight of this bean-sized candle, and the clothes of the Tang Dynasty were not inside. As soon as the pants were said, except for Xu Qing, who was crooked one day, the other men were all hanging in the neutral gear.

The hem of the garment gradually lifted, gradually revealing a handful of grass, but it was ...... It's hard to describe, I only heard Sun Youcai shouting:

"Me! I'm going to kill those sluts! Ahhh ”

"Someone! Go to the lake and invite the water ghosts to come up, I will make those widows want to die, they can't live!" ”

Everyone trembled when they heard the word "water ghost", but they hurried out of the oppressive room.

What happened to Sun Youcaiqi? Let's look at the house where Xu Qing lives temporarily:

"Giggles, Brother Xu, look at this bracelet, look at this string of pearls. I heard that this bead is sold from the South China Sea, and there is also Qiantang, and the beads in Cangzhou are all shorter. He and Huang Shimei couldn't keep their mouths together, and their bodies trembled

"Oh, Xu Lang, you don't know, if I hadn't followed Shimei around Qiantang like this, I really didn't know that the rich lady's life was so good." Xun Xue'er sighed with emotion, shaking the sleeping Xu Wen in her hand, Xu Wen squeaked in her sleep, and everyone whispered.

Xiaoyue is also a peasant girl, and later she unintentionally entered the palace, but she was not particularly interested in pearls and gems, and took out a neatly written note. Quietly talk to Xu Qing about "Zhuangzi", "House" and other things.

If you want to say that the three daughters are the most like the landlord's wife, it must be Xiaoyue.

Xu Qi was tinkering with a lot of kites, small lanterns and the like next to him, and occasionally interjected when everyone was talking. She knew that this was Xu Qing and the third daughter's time, and she couldn't accompany her, and she couldn't bother until Xu Qing was on business.

Of course, this gave Xu Qing a headache, but what gave Xu Qing a headache was Xu Qi's faint words.

"Actually, the most interesting thing today is to beat a hooligan!"

"Huh?" The three women's faces sank, and their eyes seemed to be about to penetrate Xu Qi, Xu Xuqi seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "Tong, Tong Yan is unscrupulous, the big wind blows away!" ”

Where can the wind blow away, Xu Qing had already heard it, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" Why don't you tell me about something so unimportant? ”

To say that Xu Qing safely let the four girls go shopping on the street by themselves, it is actually more reassuring. After all, with the strength of the dark river, pulling out a finger is not something that those thieves can provoke. With the dark river by the side of the four women, the safety of the four women can be completely guaranteed, but the four women encountered hooligans, which still made the male hormones in Xu Qing's body move.

"Xu Xuqing, don't blame the sisters, they are all afraid that you will worry......" Xu Qi bowed his head and said, obviously wanting to entertain himself and make up for the mistake of not keeping his mouth firm just now.

"Okay, I won't blame them, but I won't let go of that hooligan!" Xu Qingdao. He remembered that when he didn't have the strength before, he had to take Xun Xue'er to hide in Tibet, and when he encountered hooligans, he could only fight but not kill.

"We ate breakfast from the Zhouji Cake Shop, went to the fish farm to buy a goldfish, and then went to Sun's satin shop......" Xu Qi talked endlessly, listened to it for a long time, and had nothing to do with the hooligans.

Huang Shimei grabbed the words and said: "Let me say, it's like this, it's not early after we finished shopping, and when we were about to go home, a few people surrounded us." ”

"Those people were angry and said they wanted to invite us to tea, and if we didn't agree, they would pull us. At this time, Dark River made a move, and they didn't get close within five steps, so they all fell down. ”

Xiao Yue continued: "They were beaten down and still didn't accept it, and they found the person behind them, what is the name of that person, and what is Sun here." ”

"Sun Mu!"

Xu Qing was shocked, not that he was surprised that this Sun Mu had any skills, but that he was surprised by the name Sun Mu and the elegant Sun Youcai.

So fateful?

It is a small world! If it was this acquaintance, Xu Qing would have to pinch him even more.

"Yes, call Sun Mu to come, it's useless for him to come, he was still beaten down by the dark river with three times and five divided by two. It's just that he said wildly, and Sister Xun hugged the child and said that his words polluted Wenwen's ears. Shimei couldn't help it, and took a big vase she had just bought, sixteen pounds. ”

"Nineteen pounds!" Huang Shimei corrected.

"Okay, nineteen catties, it doesn't matter how heavy it is, anyway, Shimei took the vase and smashed it ......"

"What smashing?" Xu Qing asked: "I hit my head and died, it's not good, I can't take revenge?" Could it be a whipping corpse? Raid his ancestral grave? ”

"No, it's not dead yet, it's just ......" Xiao Yue lowered her head, and Huang Shimei couldn't help but grab the words and said: "It just hit his life!" ”

Xu Qing laughed, smashed well, smashed well. But the fourth girl worriedly explained to Xu Qing that Sun Mu had something to do with the county government.

County office? What's that? Xu Qing pointed to the sky and said to the four women, in this world, anyone who dares to disturb my woman's shopping, below the emperor, will pay the price of his life. Even if it's an old man Li Yuan, if I can't beat him, I have to tear off his skin!
