Chapter 31 Victim of Adultery

When the carriage arrived in Xincheng, it was already ugly, the streets were sparsely populated, and many shops had closed, but the grain and oil store on Zhonghe Street that had been designated to receive darts was still brightly lit.

There were nine bags of rice in this trip, of which six bags of rice belonged to this grain and oil store, and three bags of soybeans belonged to another. After Wei Darttou finished the rice, he had to catch up with a family!

"Woo......" Wei Dart shouted, letting the horse stop at the door of the grain and oil store.

"Is it Jingliu's Wei dart head? Hurry up and drive the carriage to the backyard, the shopkeeper has been waiting for a long time. After picking up your truckload, we closed, and we haven't eaten dinner yet, and our stomachs are hungry. "A shopkeeper dressed in black.

"I'm sorry! It was past noon when I received the dart, and it was late, which affected everyone to close. I'll drive the wagon to the backyard and take the goods. Wei Dangtou said with a smile and drove the carriage to the backyard.

The shopkeeper of the grain and oil store is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a fat head and big ears, and mung bean eyes, who is sitting under the eaves in the backyard drinking tea. After Wei Dangtou drove the carriage to the backyard, he didn't even raise his head to call a few of his subordinates to order the goods.

Wei Bangtou felt that the shopkeeper was dissatisfied with the late arrival of the goods, so he asked Wei Shihao and the clerk to order the goods, and walked to the shopkeeper to explain the reason and say good things.

The shopkeeper just said "um, um" twice, and ignored him.

"The shopkeeper, the big number is right, a total of six bags of rice." The clerk came over and said.

"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and count! The shopkeeper said with a straight face.

The clerk answered, and the other two came to the carriage with lanterns, poured the bags of rice into a wooden barrel, and counted them. The barrel has a volume of three buckets, and a bag of rice is just enough.

"Big shopkeeper, when I received the dart, I said that it was calculated according to the whole package, and if it was not opened, it would be counted if it was not damaged, so why should it be counted? I'm going to get rid of the next one! Wei Bangtou felt that what the shopkeeper of Jingliu Grain and Oil Store had explained was different from what he was doing, so he reminded him in a hurry.

"Too much money, too much rice, how do I know if the other party has done something, or if there is something else missing?" The shopkeeper said coldly.

The shopkeeper was right.

Wei Darttou visually inspected six bags of rice, a total of about eighteen buckets, it should not be much worse, so he stood in place and watched them count.

After the first bag of rice was poured out, there were exactly three buckets of rice.

"What is this? It's soybeans! When the clerk poured the second bag, he suddenly screamed.

The shopkeeper, who was sitting under the eaves, bounced up from his chair, walked over and patted the clerk on the head, and scolded: "You daredevil, our goods are rice, what do you think you measured?" ”

"Huh? I made a mistake and measured soybeans. With the help of the light, the clerk saw that the container was filled with soybeans, and immediately put it in the bag and put it back into the bag.

"Oh, the bag clearly has the name of the store written on it, why didn't you read it clearly?" It's so late, and the wrong thing is ordered, Wei Darttou was a little anxious, and he also rushed over and said.

After the clerk apologized repeatedly, he continued to load the soybeans back.

"Ah...... What is it? When the clerk was reloading the soybeans, he found a few sheets of paper with words written on them in the container, and suddenly exclaimed.

The shopkeeper mung bean's eyes narrowed, asked the clerk to put the lantern closer, and when he took it in his hand, the old face suddenly darkened, and then his eyes widened, and his hands kept shaking.

"You...... You...... What's in your cargo? The shopkeeper said in astonishment.

"What?" Wei Shihao, who was standing on the side, felt that it was not good, these pieces of paper were indeed mixed with soybeans, and after seeing the change in the shopkeeper's expression, he was also surprised, and immediately grabbed it in his hand to check.

On this piece of paper is the propaganda slogan of the remnants of the former dynasty against the imperial court.

"Dachau, what's written on it?" Wei Dangtou hurriedly asked.

Beads of sweat had soaked out of Wei Shihao's forehead, and he turned to Abba and said, "This is anti-imperial propaganda material...... There's something wrong with this. ”

As soon as the words "anti-court" came out, everyone present was shocked, and they were guilty of killing their heads by propagating anti-court ideology for the remnants of the previous dynasty.

"How is that possible?" Wei Dangtou couldn't believe it, snatched the paper and put it under the lantern to see, this was indeed anti-imperial court information, his limbs immediately weakened, and he almost didn't sit on the ground.

A bad omen loomed over the heads of the father and son.

"Wei Darthead, Wei Darthead, I can't imagine that you would dare to do such a thing? Someone, hurry up and report to the official! The shopkeeper shouted.

"Shopkeeper, don't spew blood, we will never do such a thing, there is a misunderstanding!" Wei Shihao said, and immediately helped his father.

"I'm spurting blood, this is obviously dirty, what do you want to say, I'll tell the official later!" The shopkeeper said coldly.

While speaking, twenty or thirty men dressed in black suddenly rushed out from all directions, all holding cold white blades, surrounding Wei Shihao's father and son.

At this point, Wei Shihao has understood that they have been framed, and the twenty or thirty heavily armed men seem to have been ambushed nearby in advance, and perhaps this grain and oil store is the real murderer. But why did he frame them? But he didn't know.

"Shopkeeper, you are such a vicious method! Looking at this formation, you have been prepared for a long time, right? Wei Shihao was furious, and immediately pulled out the long sword on his body and pointed at the shopkeeper.

"Hmph, how can this be reasonable, you are a little chaotic party and dare to accuse Lao Tzu of being vicious? What a guts. The shopkeeper scolded.

"Dahao, don't be impulsive, the government will find out about this matter, don't do it." Wei Daotou felt very innocent, but as long as the government investigated the buyers and sellers of the goods, the truth would be revealed immediately, and he couldn't do anything with the shopkeeper.

"Abba, don't you see that someone is deliberately framing us?" Wei Shihao said.

"This Abba knows it!"

The shopkeeper sat down on the chair under the eaves again, took a sip of hot tea, and said with a mocking smile: "Haha...... The old and the young are quite similar! This product is obviously pulled by you to my store, and you keep saying that you were framed? Don't you think it's ridiculous? ”

He slammed the cup on the table and said fiercely: "Lao Tzu was framed by you, kill me!" ”

"Kill ......" After he gave the order, the courtyard shouted and killed, and twenty or thirty weapons with a cold light immediately slashed at Wei's father and son.

"Humph! The fox's tail still leaked out. Wei Shihao snorted coldly, this store must have something to do with this matter.

At this time, Wei Daotou also woke up to the fact that the other party wanted their lives, not to arrest them and send them to the yamen. So, father and son rose up to resist.

As the saying goes, blue is better than blue. The emotional Wei Shihao's swordsmanship was smooth, and he was besieged by more than 20 people without falling behind; Wei Darthead has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and a few rats are not enough to threaten him, and they have the upper hand in only ten rounds.

Wei Darthead focuses on defense, does not want to hurt people, does not stab or slash with the sword, and only uses the sword to slap the opponent's face or body.

"Dachau must not cause any trouble!" Wei Dart head said.

"Yes!" Wei Shihao replied.

Don't want human life, it doesn't mean that you can't hurt the other party, because he didn't attack the other party's vital point, but he is not as merciful as Abba, more than ten rounds later, the other party has been stabbed by him and fell to the ground, holding the blood gushing wound and crying wolf.

The father and son were brave and good at fighting, which shocked the shopkeeper, so he shouted loudly: "It's the opposite, it's the opposite, hurry up and call the officers and soldiers!" ”

As soon as the words fell, four or five more clerks were slashed to the ground by Wei Shihao.

His son's swordsmanship exceeded Wei Dangtou's expectations. He thought to himself that if he could escape this fate, his son would be a great man in the future!

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of officers and soldiers quickly arrived and surrounded Wei's father and son.

"Stop!" After the man in the general's uniform shouted, the fight in the courtyard came to an abrupt end, and then he waved his hand and said, "Take it for me!" ”

"Lord Guancha, our father and son have been wronged......" Wei Daotou immediately explained to the leading official.

However, how can Wei Dart's father and son be allowed to talk? After their weapons were confiscated, they were escorted by two officers and soldiers, and the other two immediately put sharp broadswords on their necks.

"Wronged?" The leading officer and soldier picked up the paper scattered on the ground, and without even looking at it, said, "What is this?" If you are planning to rebel, you will be guilty of a capital crime, so you will be beheaded! ”

Wei Shihao finally figured it out, this is a conspiracy, there is still a distance from the grain and oil store to the Tusi Yamen, but the shopkeeper has just asked people to report to the official, and hundreds of people have come, and the other party doesn't even look at it, he knows what is written on it, doesn't this explain everything?

"This isn't ours." Wei Dangtou explained.

The leading official didn't listen to his explanation at all, and waved his hand again: "Search for me!" ”

Seven or eight officers and soldiers immediately removed the unopened Zaidou from the carriage and searched it.

"Oh, Lord Official, you came in time! Otherwise, the two traitors might have escaped. The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.

The leading official did not take care of the shopkeeper, and stared closely at several officers and soldiers carrying soybeans and pouring them into empty buckets.

"What is this?" After the soybeans were poured out, each bag contained anti-imperial propaganda materials, and the number was much more than that of the first bag, a total of hundreds, and the official still grabbed it in his hand and asked Wei Daotou and his son.

"Alas, it's all anti-court information! It's too bold. The shopkeeper pretended to be nervous and said, "Your Excellency, this soybean is not from our store." ”

"It's not yours and who's it, this matter has nothing to do with you, so take it back to investigate." The official scared.

"Mistaken, mistaken. The goods in our store are marked with the name of the store on the bag, and these soybeans are indeed not from our store. The shopkeeper explained.

After checking the markings on the bag, the two officers and soldiers said: "The soybean bag says 'Lu Ji Grain and Oil Store', not from this store." ”

Before the official could speak, Wei Daotou said: "My lord, this soybean is indeed not from this store, it is from Lu Ji Grain and Oil Store on Zhonghe Street." We were also entrusted by someone to escort the escort to the escort, please check it out. ”

"Oh, the soybeans aren't from your store, so it's none of your business. Then take the two of them back to investigate first! The official ordered Wei Daotou and his son to be escorted back to the Tusi Yamen.

After the father and son were escorted to the yamen, they were first severely tortured until they passed out in a blur of flesh and blood, and then they were put in a cell.
