Chapter 54

Fan Li was shocked, he didn't expect that a delicate little lady in Mantuo would have such martial arts. What should I do if I can't beat it? Do you still want to report to the police and arrest people? They are officials, and Ma Zhanguo is also an official. In desperation, he immediately made a decision, knelt down in front of Ma Zhanguo, and burst into tears, hoping that Ma Zhanguo would do him a favor for the sake of acquaintance, if he returned in vain, Pei Xianzun would punish him heavily, and begged Ma Zhanguo to leave one person, and he would go back to the errand.

Ma Zhanguo is in the public gate, and he knows that it is not easy to be on an errand, and after all, he is in the city at this time, and it is really going to make a big fuss, and Pei Shuozhang is also troublesome when he participates in Xia County. After a little thought, he left Zhuang Feifei. Compared with Yan Sun and Dong Li, although Zhuang Feifei is also a key person, he is not the most important witness.

Fan Li took Zhuang Feifei away and hurried back. I didn't go far, but I met the deputy commander of the forbidden army in the station, Lieutenant Chi Zhi. Wei Chizhi led more than 100 heavily armed forbidden cavalry to meet Fan Li and his party head-on.

The forbidden army of Zhending Prefecture has a total of 200,000 soldiers and horses, 100,000 stationed in Zhending County, and 100,000 stationed in Shile County. Because Shile County is a large grain-producing county, the forbidden army lives in the grain chase, which is also called the grain forbidden army. The commander of the forbidden army of Zhending Prefecture made Wu Yidong directly under the jurisdiction of Cui Xiang, and the deputy commander of the forbidden army of Shile County, Wei Chizhi, was under the jurisdiction of Wu Yidong and Pei Shuo, and had to obey Cui Xiang's orders.

Of course, his direct boss is Wu Yidong, Cui Xiang's orders must be listened to, Wu Yidong's orders must be listened to, and Pei Shuozhang's orders must also be listened to, so Wei Chizhi is an angry bag who can be controlled everywhere and can point fingers at him.

After receiving Pei Shuozhang's order to send troops, he originally wanted to ask Wu Yidong for instructions before dispatching troops, but the person who gave the order showed his waist card, and he was immediately frightened into a cold sweat, which turned out to be the gold medal of the Star King's Mansion.

That's right, the person who gave the order was Gao Jianyuan.

After Gao Jianyuan sent Fan Li to intercept Ma Zhanguo and the others after Pei Shuozhang sent them, he learned that there was a delicate lady accompanying him, and he immediately remembered Mantuo. Mantuo's martial arts are strong, how can a few officials be her opponents? Thinking about this section, he immediately asked Pei Shuozhang to write a handwritten letter, and rode a horse with the letter to the Wangxiang Mountain Forbidden Army garrison in the east of Shile County.

Only by dispatching the forbidden army can they stop Manta!

After Gao Jianyuan arrived at the forbidden army and conveyed the order, he immediately returned to the county office. He is a personal soldier of the Star King's Mansion, and his identity is special, so he is not suitable to show his face.

With both Pei Shuozhang's edict and the gold medal of the Star King, although Wei Chizhi was not very willing to send troops, he had to cheer up and order a hundred people, and rode a horse to meet Fan Li. When Fan Li saw that the forbidden army had dispatched a large group of men, he immediately lifted his spirits, and hurriedly asked Wei Chizhi to chase after Ma Zhanguo and the others, and be sure to escort Yan Sun and Dong Li back to Shile County.

Wei Chi directly led the troops to chase after him, and half an hour later, he caught up with Ma Zhanguo and his party in Zhending County. Wei Chi immediately crossed the knife and asked Ma Zhanguo to leave Yan Sun and Dong Li's family, otherwise they would meet each other. Ma Zhanguo is unwilling, now he is in the territory of Zhending, although Wei Chizhi is the forbidden army of Zhending Mansion, but it is also the food ban army in Shile County, and he has no jurisdiction over the affairs in Zhending, he is angry because Zhuang Feifei was snatched away, and he was forced by Wei Chizhi, and immediately attacked, waved the knife in his hand, and shouted "Give it to me", and a group of arresters surrounded Wei Chizhi in the middle.

Wei Chizhi laughed, it was okay to catch fast and scare the people with the officials, but in front of the forbidden army, they were a rabble, and fighting with the forbidden army was simply hitting a stone with an egg, and Ma Zhanguo's move was in his arms. He is the leader of the forbidden army, but he has no right to interfere in local affairs, not to mention that he is in the territory of Zhending, Ma Zhanguo turns a blind eye to him, and if he just moves forward, he really doesn't dare to take down Yan Sun and Dong Li. Even if there is a gold medal from the Star King, it is not good, he is a smart person, if things get bigger, the Star King will definitely not admit that there is a gold medal, he can only swallow his anger and carry the black cauldron.

Ma Zhanguo made a move first, it is much easier to say, he can escort people back on the grounds of attacking the forbidden army, Wei Chizhi immediately shouted, and when he was about to make a move, suddenly a figure flashed, and a graceful lady blocked in front of Ma Zhanguo.

It is the Manta.

Although Mantuo is a son and daughter of the rivers and lakes, he grew up in the family of the official eunuch since he was a child, and he has seen a lot of officialdom and calculations, and he knows very well that based on the current situation, once he does it, he will definitely not be pleased. She stopped Ma Zhanguo and whispered to Ma Zhanguo that Wei Chizhi was a local forbidden army and had no right to interfere in local affairs.

Ma Zhanguo was angry for a while, so he wanted to make a move, and when he woke up through the mantle, he suddenly realized, quickly put away his weapons, and led the team to turn around and leave.

The forbidden troops under Wei Chizhi looked at each other, waiting for Wei Chizhi to give the order to do it, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Wei Chizhi talking, and when he looked back, he saw that Wei Chizhi was drooling when he looked at the back of Mantuo.

Wei Chizhi wanted to wait for Ma Zhanguo and the others to go far, and then turn around and go back to the errand, so he prevaricated on the grounds that he didn't catch up, so he didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He didn't want to catch a glimpse of the mantra to make him salivate, he had never seen such a beautiful and sassy lady, for a moment he was fascinated, and he couldn't help but drive the horse forward and follow behind the mantra.

The forbidden soldiers did not know what to do, and they also followed behind Wei Chizhi. After walking for about half a mile, I came to a wood. Suddenly, a few frightened birds flew out of the forest, and Mantuo stopped, came to the middle of the forbidden army, borrowed a bow from the archer, bent the bow and set up an arrow, and an arrow was shot, and the birds in the air screamed and fell straight down.

Just when everyone was shocked by the magic skill of Mantuo, after the birds landed, everyone found that it was actually two birds that were shot in the neck by an arrow, killing two birds with one stone, and the legendary archers were nothing more than that, the forbidden army was stunned at first, and then broke out with an earth-shattering shout.

Mantuo returned the bow to the archer, drew his sword, picked up the two birds from the tip of the sword, handed it to Wei Chizhi's eyes, and said, "The commander has worked hard, and it is not a tribute to give a pair of birds." ”

Wei Chizhi knew that the little lady in front of him was not only as beautiful as a flower, but also very skilled in swordsmanship, and was a rare master. ”

Then he turned around and waved his hand, shouting: "Back to the camp!" ”

The forbidden army responded in unison, and the cavalry of more than 100 people turned around and galloped away, stirring up boundless dust.

As soon as Mantuo and his entourage returned to Zhending County, Xia Xiang was passed to Zhending Mansion by Cui Xiang. Cui Xiang first talked earnestly about his enthusiasm and passion when he first entered the officialdom, and later experienced more things and realized that sometimes retreating is not incompetent and cowardly, nor is it not for the people, but for the sake of taking into account the overall situation, for the way of a gentleman who is righteous and peaceful.

Subsequently, Cui Xiang bluntly asked Xia Xiang to suspend the trial of Dong Xian's case, and directly sentenced Fu Ke to be executed and reported to the government office, which will report to Dali Temple and the Criminal Department for approval, and once the approval is issued, the execution will be carried out immediately.

Xia Xiang knew that Cui Xiang was anxious to execute Fu Ke, and he must have been under pressure from behind. It is said that Cui Xiang, as the prefect, although he is his immediate boss, has no authority to decide on the duties of questioning in Zhending County. He did not reject Cui Xiang in one go, but claimed that Dong Xian's case had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people on the grounds that he had salvaged Dong Xian's body in the Hutuo River with great fanfare, and if the case was hastily concluded, he was afraid that it would cause dissatisfaction among the people. The people's hearts have always been like weighing public opinion like a mirror, and since Cui Fuzun was really designated as an official, he has had a lot of fame and official reputation, and he must not be ruined because of Dong Xian's case.

Xia Xiang first gave Cui Xiang a top hat to wear, and then changed his tone, saying that he had found definite evidence to prove that the real culprit behind Dong Xian's case did not involve the officials and nobles, but only caused by business disputes. In less than seven days, he will be able to find out all the truth, successfully close the case, and then report the case to Cui Fuzun.

Cui Xiang wanted to say something more, but Xia Xiang hurriedly said goodbye and left on the grounds that he still had something to do, and no longer gave Cui Xiang a chance to continue. Although Xia Xiang also knew that if Cui Xiang really wanted to force pressure on him, he would also be very embarrassed. The most important thing at the moment is to find out the real culprit as soon as possible and let the truth be revealed to the world.

At this time, Cui Xiang had not yet received a letter from the capital, asking him to do his best to stop Xia Xiang's trial.

After learning about what happened to Mantuo and his party in Shile, Xia Xiang concluded that there must be a lot of hidden circumstances behind Dong Xian's death, and even the forbidden army was dispatched, it can be seen that Pei Shuozhang only understood after receiving instructions that he wanted to leave Yan Sun and Dong Li at all costs, but fortunately, Mantuo and Ma Zhanguo were witty and adapted, and finally brought back Yan Sun and Dong Li.

Xia Xiang's mind was uncertain, and after thinking about everything, he walked along the river with Xiao Wu, Mantuo, Ma Zhanguo, and Ding Ke for a long time.

It's late autumn, and the autumn breeze is blowing, and there is a deep coolness. Xia Xiang and his entourage came to a cake shop, the name of the cake shop is Yang Mazi Flatbread, the faΓ§ade is not large, it is a two-story small building. There was a tall poplar tree in front of the door, and at this time the leaves had fallen away, leaving only bare branches.

The style of the building is quite Tang Yun, and there is a couplet at the door, which is also quite tasteful.

Uplink: Although the production is complicated, we will not dare to save labor, and the downlink: although the taste is expensive, we will not dare to reduce material resources. Although the couplet is not neat, it is also in line with the way of business. After a few people entered the door, there was another couplet on the pillar. Uplink: No one sees the repair, and the downlink: God knows what to do. Xia Xiang nodded secretly, this business is so prosperous, it is not accidental, the store must be extraordinary.

When I got upstairs, I chose a good place to sit down, but I didn't see Xiao Er come to greet him, and when Xiao Wu was about to call someone, he saw the shopkeeper hurriedly come up, came to Xia Xiang, and said honestly: "The villain Tian is not satisfied with seeing the county respect." ”

Xia Xiang was stunned for a moment, looked down, that's right, he was wearing a green coat and a small hat, he looked like a scholar, and couldn't help but wonder: "The shopkeeper is a scholar below, not a county honor." ”

Tian Wei grinned: "The county is an official of the imperial court, and the villain will not be mistaken." ”

"Have you seen me?" Xia Xiang remembered that when he salvaged Dong Xian's body, he had appeared on a boat in the river. However, it is far from the shore, and there are not many people who know who he is.

"The villain has never seen the county honor." Tian was dissatisfied with his respectful expression, and there was a hint of pride, "When Fang Cai Xianzun went upstairs, he looked left and right in the narrow part of the corridor, for fear of touching the long wings of the black gauze hat. If you don't always wear a winged official hat, how can this be? In the Zhending County Ya, the people who wear the long-winged official hat are only the county zun and the county cheng, and the villain of Xu Xiancheng knows it, so your Excellency will not be anyone else except Xia Xianzun. ”

Xia Xiangle said that he didn't wear the long-winged official hat too much, but he didn't think that he had already developed the habit of avoiding it left and right, and couldn't help laughing, people have many habits that become natural behaviors, but they don't feel anything when they are used to it, but in the eyes of people with hearts, it has become a significant feature.

Tian is not yet over fifty years old, and his thin face has a pair of surprisingly large eyes, the eyes are shining, and between the movement of the eyeballs, he is quite smart and clever. With a pair of big provocative ears, sparse eyebrows, and thin lips, it can be judged from his appearance that he is a shrewd, witty, and observant person.

Xia Xiang's mind moved, and he asked with a smile: "Tian is dissatisfied, your name is quite interesting, is it to take 'never be complacent' to warn yourself from time to time?" ”

Tian was dissatisfied with the counter downstairs to settle the accounts, inadvertently glanced, saw Xia Xiang and his party go upstairs, originally didn't care too much, suddenly thought of something, hurriedly put down the brush in his hand, came to the stairs and stared at Xia Xiang's back intently, and when he saw Xia Xiang looking left and right in the corridor, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he concluded that this person was the newly appointed Xia Xianzun.

I had the courage to come up and wait for Xia Xianzun in person, I wanted to leave a good impression, so that Xia Xianzun remembered him, I didn't want to see him, Xia Xianzun was not only approachable, there was no official tone and shelf, his courage was a little bigger: "Back to Xia Xianzun, the villain's family was poor when he was a child, and he always couldn't eat enough, plus the villain's food was amazing, and the villain's parents disliked the villain for eating too much, so they named the villain and were dissatisfied, which means that they couldn't fill the ......."

"Haha, it's a good field to be dissatisfied." Xia Xiang laughed loudly, remembered the name of the store again, and continued to ask, "Your surname is Tian, why is the name of the store called Yang Mazi Cake Shop?" You don't have pockmarks on your face either. ”

Tian was not satisfied with being able to talk to the county honor, he was already fortunate in his three lives, and he didn't want the county to be interested in him, so he couldn't help but be even happier, and said as if he was busy offering treasures: "Xia county zun doesn't know, the villain used to be in the grain business, but later lost everything, so he changed careers and opened a cake shop." The original owner of the hotel was called Yang Mazi, who was originally from Quanzhou, and because of something at home, he went back to Quanzhou with the storefront. Because Yang Mazi's cake is famous, it is also a small signboard in Zhending County, and after the villain took over, he did not change his name and surname......"

"Shop, if you have any signature dishes, just come up." Mantuo didn't like Tian Xian's too groveling style, and didn't want him to delay Xia Xiang's business any longer, so he wanted to send him away.

"Yes, yes." Tian Wei peeked at Mantuo, but was so frightened by Mantuo's cold eyes that he shrank his neck and was busy stretching things.

After a while, Tian Xian came up again, holding a tray in his hand, with all kinds of snacks, snacks, melons and fruits, as well as signature tofu and flatbread.

After putting it down, Tian was dissatisfied and didn't want to leave, so he stood aside: "Xia Xianzun, if you have something to order, the villain is waiting on the side." ”

"Go down." Manta waved his hand.

Tian was dissatisfied with a look of disappointment, answered, and reluctantly went downstairs. After only going down a few steps, I heard Xia Xiang's voice coming: "The store stays." ”

Tian was dissatisfied with the holy order, and hurriedly returned: "What does Xia Xianzun command?" ”

Mantuo glanced at Xia Xiang puzzled, but Xia Xiang smiled indifferently, unhurriedly picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly: "What kind of grain business did the store do before?" ”

"Villain, villain......" Tian was dissatisfied and stopped, his eyes flickering, "The villain is just a small fight, a matchmaker in the middle, and he is not a big businessman, not as good as Xu Wangshan Xu Yuanwai and Ma Qingyuan Ma Yuanwai." ”

"You're a tooth man?" Xia Xiang is not idle, he has to chat with a shopkeeper to show that he is approachable as a county honor, but he senses that Tian Xian's excellence may be useful, and he can see from his left and right that he is a person with the status of a county honor, and he has been in the market for many years, Tian Xian knows more things than Ma Zhanguo and Ding Ke.

"Exactly, the villain has always been a tooth man before. Although he is not as good as An Lushan, he can speak the language of six countries, and he can speak seven or eight local dialects, and he is not deceived and trades fairly, so when the villain is a tooth man, he is also famous. "Tian is dissatisfied with the experience of being a tooth man in the past, and he moves out of An Lushan at every turn to add glory to the experience of the tooth people, "Although the tooth people are mostly misunderstood, called the tooth people, there are invasion of the fishing people, bullying the market, fraud and coaxing, drilling profits, charging high commissions, and damaging the interests of both parties to the transaction, but the villain has always abided by ethics, never profited from it, and only received the remuneration he deserved." ”

Xia Xiangcai didn't bother to pay attention to the people's evaluation of the tooth people, the tooth people live between the buyers and sellers, and they are matched to obtain commissions, and they are also registered in the government and issue licenses, which is a legitimate occupation that has been licensed, and he only cares about who Tian is dissatisfied with in the grain business: "Tian is not satisfied, this official asks you, since you are a tooth person, who is the grain business you are doing with the tooth?" Isn't it Xu Wangshan and Ma Qingyuan? ”

"No, no." Tian was dissatisfied and waved his hand again and again, "The villain wants to do business with Xu Yuanwai and Ma Yuanwai, but unfortunately Xu Yuanwai and Ma Yuanwai don't look down on the villain." The grain business in Zhending County was all controlled by Xu Yuanwai and Ma Yuanwai, and the villain was later forced to make a living, so he had to run back and forth for the directors of Shile County to earn a little hard-earned money. ”

Originally, Ma Zhanguo and Ding Ke were very puzzled why Xia Xianzun wanted to be dissatisfied with Hetian, and the most important thing at the moment should be to interrogate Yan Sun and Dong Li as soon as possible, Shile County only snatched back Zhuang Feifei, Cui Fuzun put pressure on Xia Xianzun again, maybe it won't be long before even Yan Sun and Dong Li will be forcibly escorted back to Shile. The first priority now is to try out the crucial confessions from the mouths of Yan Sun and Dong Li, so that Cui Fuzun and Pei Shuozhang have nothing to say.
