The county magistrate, Shen Panhong, saw that the grain cart he had lost before appeared at the door of Hu Yuanwai's house, and he was furious.

Shen Pan Hongxin said: The last two times the grain was lost, Hu Erhu must have colluded with the thieves, and Hu Erhu deliberately gave the grain to the thieves. This time, the grain truck appeared at the door of Hu Erhu's house, and it must have been given to Hu Erhu by thieves in order to thank Hu Erhu. The appearance of the grain truck in Hu Erhu this time, or what agreement was reached between the thief and Hu Erhu, if Hu Erhu deliberately threw the grain to the thief, the thief would give Hu Erhu as much grain.

When Shen Panhong saw this, he became angry.

Shen Pan Hongxin said: Hu Erhu, I can let you play hard!

At this time, there was another person next to him muttering quietly.

Maybe that person wanted to slap Shen Pan Hong's whiskers.

The man muttered there in a low voice: "I said that after Hu Erhu lost his grain for the first time, when the adults wanted to kill him, his father was able to take out so much grain at once." I was still wondering at the time. If the county's tax grain is lost for a year, how can he afford it alone? Now I understand. ”

At this time, Shen Panhong asked the old man who reported the news: "Old man, have you ever seen such a thing before?" ”

Shen Panhong thought to himself: This grain may have been given to Hu Erhu by the thieves in order to thank Hu Erhu after Hu Erhu lost the grain for the second time. It is also possible that Hu Erhu's third grain was also lost. After the thief got Hu Erhu's food for the third time, the thief gave Hu Erhu to thank Hu Erhu. Thieves for the first time. Or after getting Hu Erhu's food for the second time, did the thieves thank Hu Erhu so much?

The old man said, "This ......? It's really hard to say. Because the sound was very small at that time. Adult, think about it, do thieves have a loud voice? I was just in time to come out to relieve myself when I heard the voice. If I was sleeping, I wouldn't have heard it. ”

Shen Panhong said, "Okay. ”

Shen Panhong rewarded the old man with a few taels of silver, and he sent the old man away.

******

At this time, Shen Panhong ordered: "Give me a raid!" ”

Shen Panhong commanded. His servants rushed forward like wolves.

So they smashed open the door outside Hu Yuan.

After a while, the door outside Hu Yuanwai was smashed by them.

Then. There were also a few soldiers outside the Hu Yuan who heard the voice and came out.

Several family soldiers saw that it was the county master who smashed the door, and they hurriedly went up to salute: "The villain has seen the county master." ”

Shen Panhong said: "What about your family members? ”

Several family soldiers said: "If you go back to the county master, what about our family members sleeping outside?" ”

Shen Panhong said: "What sleep? Let him out! ”

"Yes!"

A few of the soldiers agreed, and they told them to go out.

Shen Panhong is quite conscious. He hadn't made it to the inner courtyard yet.

Because the inner courtyard is where Hu Yuanwai's wives and concubines live, don't look at Shen Panhong as the county magistrate, he really doesn't want to get close to women casually.

******

After a while, Hu Yuan went out.

As soon as Hu Yuanwai saw Shen Panhong, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "The villain has seen the county master." ”

Shen Panhong said: "Master, I've been here with you for so long, why did you come out?" ”

Hu Yuanwai said: "Back to the villain just now he was sleeping. The villain really didn't know that the county master would arrive late at night. ”

Shen Panhong said, "What? Were you sleeping just now? Is it? It's true that you didn't know that I was going to drive late at night, but it's not true that you were sleeping just now, right? ”

Hu Yuanwai said: "Master, are you kidding? Who doesn't sleep at night? ”

Shen Panhong said: "Less nonsense! There are people who don't sleep at night. Say it? Where did you put the food that the thief gave you just now? Master Ben asks you again, how did your son Hu Erhu collude with thieves? ”…

Hu Yuanwai said: "Master." You're kidding, aren't you? Where did you come from? ”

Shen Panhong said, "What did you say? You say, sir, I'm joking with you? Sir, I'll stay asleep in the middle of the night, come to you to joke? ”

"...... this?"

Hu Yuanwai was in trouble.

Because Hu Yuanwai really doesn't know about the grain truck!

Shen Panhong said: "Hu Yuanwai, don't pretend to be confused with me. Come out with me and have a look! ”

Shen Panhong led Hu Yuan out.

*******

Hu Yuanwai followed Shen Panhong out to have a look. He was stupid at the time, and he saw that the county magistrate had lost a few grain trucks parked in front of his house.

Shen Panhong said: "Hu Yuanwai, what else do you have to say?" Don't you say quickly, where did you unload the grain in the car? ”

Hu Yuanwai said: "Master, I was wronged! I really don't know what the hell is going on with the grain truck! ”

Shen Panhong said, "What? Are you still wronged? I've been wronged! I've made it so hard for you father and son to deceive! Now that you have all the stolen goods, you still say that you were wronged? ”

Hu Yuanwai said: "Master." I was wronged! ”

Shen Panhong said: "It seems that Master Ben asked you so, you won't tell the truth?" Looks like I'm going to have to take you to the lobby, sir. After Master Ben has the torture instrument, will you tell the truth? ”

Shen Panhong instructed his subordinates: "Tie up Hu Yuanwai for me!" ”

As soon as Shen Panhong gave the order, his subordinates tied up Hu Yuanwai.

******

Then, Shen Panhong asked Hu Er, the chief manager of Hu Mansion: "Hu Er, now everyone has stolen money." Where did you say you put the food just now? ”

Hu Er said: "Master, we adults have been wronged!" We were really asleep just now! We really didn't see any food outside of the staff just now! ”

Shen Panhong said, "You said, you adults were sleeping just now. You said, you didn't see any food outside the staff just now. What about you? ”

Hu Er said: "I was also sleeping just now!" I didn't see any grain just now! ”

Shen Panhong said: "It seems that you didn't tell the truth until you went to the lobby?" ”

Shen Panhong ordered his subordinates to order: "Tie up Hu Er for me too!" ”

Shen Panhong gave an order, and Hu Er was also tied up.

******

Then, Shen Panhong ordered someone to search.

The women of the inner house were also called.

The inner house was also searched.

As a result, no food was found.

As a result, only a little food was found.

Those grains may have been temporarily used by everyone up and down in Hu Yuanwai's mansion.

******

Of course, Shen Panhong would not let Hu Yuanwai go because he couldn't find food.

Shen Panhong instructed his subordinates: "Take Hu Yuanwai and Hu Er to the county government for me, and I will interrogate them strictly." ”

Shen Panhong left a few more people behind and asked them to watch Hu Yuanwai's family here to prevent anyone from escaping.

Because if the evidence is conclusive, Hu Yuanwai really colluded with thieves to defraud the government of food, and Hu Yuanwai's family will be wiped out.

******

After Shen Panhong made arrangements, he escorted Hu Yuanwai and Hu Er, and he took a few people, and he rushed to the direction of the county office.

By this time, it was already dawn.

******

Just when Shen Pan Hong's escort Hu Yuanwai and Hu Er walked back, something happened again.

At this time, Shen Panhong was escorting Hu Yuanwai and Hu Er to walk back with a few people, and he suddenly saw a young man in front of him blocking his way.

Shen Pan turned red and saw that the young man blocking the road was holding a steel knife with a murderous face.

Shen Panhong also saw that the young man who was blocking the road had red eyes, as if he had a blood feud with someone.

Shen Panhong saw that someone was blocking his way, and he stopped.

At this time, the young man who blocked the road shouted at Shen Panhong: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, I want to come out from here, leave my head!"
