Huang Bingwen and others returned to Nanjing from Songjiang Mansion overnight, and it was already noon when they arrived at their residence. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

The group was all tired enough, and just as they were about to go to bed, a small worker came to report that the workers of the Tang Kee Weaving Workshop were racing dragon boats at Mochou Lake, and Huang Bingwen suddenly came to his senses again, and decided to take advantage of Hai Rui's absence in Nanjing to arrest all the people who should be arrested.

So, Huang Bingwen immediately made arrangements to send Tie Niu to find out the news of Wu Xiang and the two Japanese merchants, and at the same time, he also sent many people to Qixia Temple, Mochou Lake and Tangfu to wait for an opportunity to arrest people.

After stopping all the arrangements and reading the joint petition brought back by Tie Niu, Huang Bingwen couldn't help but be proud, if he could arrest all the witnesses he wanted today, he would definitely be able to pull Hai Rui off the horse.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Tang Jing was "compassionate" and organized workers to race dragon boats in Mochou Lake, Song He, Jingkong and Jingming were responsible for guards, leaving Han Xiaoyu to watch the house, Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian were also making noise, Han Xiaoyu was worried about their safety, so they asked them to stay and accompany Yue'er's mother to make zongzi.

The workers who played for a day were very happy, coming out of Mochou Lake, Tang Jing invited everyone to the big restaurant for a meal, Song He was not interested in eating, and said goodbye to Tang Jing on the grounds of worrying about the safety of Tang Mansion, and went home to tell Wanxi a story.

Through the eyes of the Yamen, I learned that Wu Xiang and the two Japanese merchants were secretly detained, except for Shi Shiyong, I didn't know where, but the scoundrel who was ambushed near Tangfu secretly followed Zhu Hui to find this secret detention point.

Not long after Shi Shiyong led Zhu Hui and Song He to set off, Tie Niu formulated a set of arrest plans......

At the same time, the well-fed workers returned to the Tang Ji Weaving Workshop, only to see strings of red lanterns hanging high in the factory area, a square table outside the workshop door, Han Xiaoyu and Yue'er's mother accompanied Tang Jing to give red envelopes and zongzi to the workers......

At the end, when he found that there were two people missing, Tang Jing said angrily: "Why can't you prepare a few more, it's not good if you don't have anyone." ”

"I suspect someone is impersonating a worker." As she spoke, Han Xiaoyu suddenly became very nervous.

The old lady was quite embarrassed, and said with emotion: "Alas, too, in this world, the rich die and the poor die, maybe there are really people who can't live anymore, get in and get a red envelope, and make up for it with my monthly money, it's useless for my old woman to ask for money, save some if you can for the big officials." ”

"Godmother, the person who got in may not be to cheat a few small money, but must have a bigger Y scheme. Tang Daguan, the two Taoist chiefs of Jingkong and Jingming, please go to the dormitory area to gather everyone for roll call. Han Xiaoyu said, and everyone immediately split up and started to act.

Due to the special status of Yue'er's mother, Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian, the three of them lived in the back garden of the weaving workshop with Han Xiaoyu, and the dormitories of the workers were isolated.

Han Xiaoyu accompanied the old man back to his residence, and found that Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian were embroidering, everything was normal, and after a few words of advice to the three of them, he went to the dormitory area to help.

Not long after Han Xiaoyu left, six big men suddenly popped out, working in groups of two, and put knives on their necks.

Someone said to the old lady: "Don't make a noise, for the sake of Brother Tie Niu's face, it will definitely not hurt you, quickly find a way to send us out, if we have a good one, your son Tie Niu will not survive!" ”

At this time, the old lady was very calm and asked unhurriedly, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Stop talking nonsense, find a way to get us out." A big man replied viciously.

So, the group of people hijacked them into the factory, the old lady hoped to meet the patrol, and slowly led them forward, Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian were so frightened that they couldn't walk, and were dragged forward, at this moment, the factory was pitch black, and there was not even a figure.

When they arrived near the outer gate of the weaving workshop, the big man who held the old lady hostage threatened: "Tell the doorman, just say that you have received a notice from Mrs. He, let us go back to Tangfu to help, dare to give birth to any tricks, kill these two women, don't even think about your son." ”

At this time, the doorman stopped them and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

The old man was very anxious at the moment, looking around and hoping that Han Xiaoyu, Jingkong and Jingming and others would come out quickly.

After waiting for a moment, the guards realized that the momentum was not right, and they all drew their sabers; So, the gangsters left Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian, rushed forward and started with the doorman......

The old lady was quick with her hands and eyes, pushed away the two big men beside her, helped Zhang Min'er and Wu Lian, who were slumped on the ground, pulled them and ran back, shouting loudly: "Come on, come on, come on......"

Everyone heard the shouting, and Jingkong and Jingming led the patrol to chase them out, and when they reached the outer gate, they saw that the four guards had fallen in a pool of blood......

Han Xiaoyu hurriedly came out to deal with the aftermath, sent Jingkong and Jingming brothers to strengthen vigilance, and hurried to the governor's yamen to report the case, but Tang Jing chased in the direction of Cuihualou alone.

At the same time, with the low sound of "silence" and "might", a large sedan chair carried by eight came to the secret guard point, and a three-rank civil official walked out of the sedan chair and ordered the messenger to knock on the door.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the courtyard gate opened, and the burly Liu Dart Master asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

The messenger replied very arrogantly: "Master Li, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, is here from Jingshi, and I ask Shi Shiyong, the head of the steward's team, to speak." ”

"Shi Bantou went out to handle the case, and he may not be able to come back tonight."

"Bold! In front of Lord Shiro, you dare to speak like this, who are you? ”

Liu Dart Master was dumbfounded, hurriedly opened the door and bowed, and asked, "I wonder why Lord Shilang came here late at night?" ”

"Lord Lang of the Ministry of Rites arrived in Nanjing today, unexpectedly Lord Hai went out to inspect the river affairs, because the cabinet of the senior urged us to return to Beijing as soon as possible, it is urgent to screen whether these two people are widows, and invite the scholar who wrote the "Golden Vase Plum" to enter the Hanlin Academy, so come to pick up people late at night, please don't misunderstand." The officer explained.

According to Shi Shiyong's instructions, no one could open the door, so Liu Dart ignored them and immediately closed the courtyard door, and the messengers suddenly swarmed in, squeezing the door out of a gap.

"Daredevil, who are you? How dare you be so rude to Lord Squire! The officer said, took out an envelope, and said sternly: "This is an official letter issued by Master Wu of the Governor Yamen, let Shi Shi use it to answer." ”

So, Master Li walked in with square steps, and said with a smile: "This official has traveled thousands of miles to Nanjing to handle the case, Hai Rui is not at home and waiting, and even you little servants are so arrogant, but this official does not blame you. ”

At this time, both Liu Dart and Ma Dart did not dare to receive the official letter, they seemed at a loss, and the messenger was impatient, and shouted: "No matter whether Shi Shiyong is at home or not, Lord Li, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, must take people away tonight, and set off from Xiaguan Wharf to return to Beijing in the early morning of tomorrow, and cannot miss the major affairs of the imperial court." ”

The two dart masters didn't dare to make a mistake, and invited Master Li into the house to drink tea, hoping that Shi Shiyong would come back soon, just when they were in trouble, Wu Xiang suddenly ran out of the back room and asked, "Two brothers, what happened?" ”

The messenger shook the official letter in front of Wu Xiang's eyes, and asked with a smile: "May I ask this Wu Gongzi who is talented, rich, and famous?" ”

Wu Xiangzhi, who was stunned, nodded, and the messenger replied with a smile: "Congratulations to Wu Gongzi, come and take a look at this official letter." ”

So, Wu Xiang, who was full of suspicion, took the envelope, looked at it carefully under the lantern, and looked at him with a smile......

The official letter wrote: The reason why the Ministry of Rites has not sent people south to Jinling for a long time is because the two strange books have caused great controversy, under the auspices of the first assistant of the cabinet, the six ministries and nine secretaries reviewed together, and finally came to the conclusion that not only do these two books have no problems, but their authors should go directly to the Hanlin Academy, preside over the compilation of the national history canon, and give the treatment of the five products.

As for the two Japanese merchants, the Ministry of Rites accepted the testimony of Xu Ling'er, a thousand households of Jinyi Wei, and reported it to the imperial cabinet, and obtained the following approval: In view of the fact that the two Mr. Matsuura were friends of Fanbang, but they were wronged in Nanjing, the imperial court was very unhappy, and in order to show the prestige of China's grace and the four seas, let them enter Beijing to accept the reward.

Wu Xiang, who was dizzy, was overjoyed and immediately ran into the room to pack his luggage and prepare to enter Beijing.

At this time, Liu Dart Master came over and asked, "Wu Gongzi, what are you going to do?" ”

"Hehe, my son is going to Beijing to become an official, come with me." Wu Xiang replied excitedly.

When Matsuura Nobuyama and Matsuura Nobumori learned that the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Rites were coming and wanted to come to see the official letter, they were so excited that they screamed, and despite the obstruction of these two dart masters, they ran out to give a salute to "Master Li".

Master Li looked at them carefully and said reservedly: "Report your place of origin and name. ”

"In Shimomatsunura Nobumasa, this is my brother Matsuura Nobumori, from the Hirado Domain in Japan, doing business in Yuegang, Zhangzhou, Fujian, and going to Nanjing to ...... during the Spring Festival."

"Okay, no more." Master Li interrupted him and said with a smile: "The official has prepared a carriage for you, get on the carriage quickly." ”

At this time, Wu Xiang had already packed his luggage and ran out to reply: "Master Li is above, Wu Xiang is below, and the people of She County, Huizhou Prefecture, are the eldest brother of Zhu Hui, the chief flag officer of the Fusi Department of Beizhen. ”

Liu and Ma also tried to stop them, but they were blocked by the officials, and they had to watch them get into the carriage.

After the group left, the more the two dart masters thought about it, the more wrong it became, and they hurriedly locked the courtyard gate and went to the governor's yamen to find Master Wu.

At this time, Shi Shiyong took Zhu Hui and Song He across Lion Rock, came to Waijinchuanmen Street, and stopped outside a courtyard under the city wall.

"Shi Bantou, are you sure Huang Bingwen lives here?" Zhu Hui asked.

"Yes, this is the place that Liu Bao helped them rent, and Huang Bingwen has been living here since he left Yang Ji Qianzhuang." Shi Shiyong replied.

At this time, Song He said anxiously: "Two brothers, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get in! ”

"Don't worry, let me go in first." As Shi Shiyong spoke, he took out a rope and threw it at the high wall, grabbed it, and climbed up along the rope, only to see that the room was brightly lit, and someone seemed to be talking in a low voice.

Shi Shiyong lay on the wall and gestured downward, so Zhu Hui and Song He also climbed up along the rope, and the three of them carefully observed for a moment and found that there was no one in the yard, so Song He performed light skills and jumped down silently.

Zhu Hui and Shi Shiyong were worried, so they jumped down directly and the movement was too big, and the two climbed down the rope, and suddenly, dozens of black-clothed people ran out of the west wing, all holding long knives, and killed them.

"Two brothers, don't worry, I'll talk about it when I clean up this bunch of crumbles." Song He said, waved his arms and soared into the air, like an eight-armed Nezha, knocking down the enemy in an instant......

This group of people knew how powerful Song He was, so they rearranged the formation to deal with him.

Zhu Hui thought to himself, this brother followed him to Nanjing, but he really helped, maybe his parents still don't know where their son went, and they must not let him have any accidents, so he teamed up with Shi Shiyong to help Song He break the siege.

The mighty Song River danced with his palms and performed a harrier turn, disrupting the enemy's formation.

Suddenly, the door of the hall opened, and Song He looked up, only to see Huang Bingwen sitting on the Taishi chair drinking tea, and suddenly became angry in his heart, and shouted loudly: "J thief, you dog thing dare to bully my father, take your life quickly!" ”

Huang Bingwen laughed loudly and asked, "Who is your father?" ”

"Eunuch turtle son!" Song He said, rushed to the house, and scolded loudly: "Dog thief, grandpa let you die to understand, my father drove a carriage." ”

Huang Bingwen blinked when he heard this, he couldn't understand who he was, and when he saw Song He stepping over the threshold, he was still calm.

At this time, Song He realized that it was not good, worried that there would be a hidden weapon, so he hurriedly stopped and looked around, and suddenly felt a shaking under his feet, and before he could take a step, he fell into the trap......

In the courtyard, Zhu Hui and Shi Shiyong joined forces to repel round after round of enemy attacks, and finally rushed to the hall, only to find that there was no one inside, and there was a black D mouth underground.

When they returned to the courtyard, all of a sudden the enemy was gone, so Shi Shiyong shouted: "Brother, they are going to release arrows, you quickly dodge." ”

As soon as the words fell, the arrows flew together, Shi Shiyong flew forward and pushed Zhu Hui into the aisle of the gatehouse, but he was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground.

Finding that Zhu Hui was going to come back to save himself, Shi Shiyong, who fell to the ground, shouted loudly: "Good brother, you go quickly, otherwise, neither of us will be able to escape." ”

Zhu Hui killed out of this courtyard and was immediately surrounded by gangsters, and it could be seen that the gangsters only wanted to arrest people, and they didn't dare to come up and play with their lives.

So, Zhu Hui closed his eyes slightly, meditated for a moment, and said in his heart: Shake your waist and shake your arms to mix Yuansheng, Feihong spreads his wings and sets Qianyuan......

Full of anger and having nowhere to vent, Zhu Hui danced the embroidered spring knife to break out of the encirclement, plunged into the moat, and swam into the distance......

Zhu Hui climbed out of the moat, dragged his wet body, touched the darkness and went up the embankment, carefully observing the surrounding movements.

The stars twinkling in the sky, continuing to walk along the moat, saw the Qinhuai River in the sound of oars and lights, and then turned a bend, which is the rolling Yangtze River......

A few days with the wind in the North Sea, back from the Yangtze River; The minister's heart is a magnetic needle, and he refuses to rest without a guide......

Reciting Wen Tianxiang's poem, throwing off his wet coat, Zhu Hui ran to the small peach orchard bare-chested, and was so tired that he couldn't run, so he went down the river embankment and entered the city from Dinghuai Gate.

Walking forward along Dinghuaimen Street, Zhu Hui was very helpless at the moment, but his fighting spirit was not reduced at all, he just wanted to hurry up and find Huang Bingwen desperately, and unconsciously arrived at the intersection of Nanzushi'an.

This is the station of the Nanjing Shenji Battalion, the soldiers on the night patrol stopped him, seeing that he was shirtless and covered with water, even if Zhu Hui showed the waist card of the brocade guard, no matter how it was explained, the soldiers refused to believe this half-grown child.

Zhu Hui couldn't bear it anymore, knocked over a few soldiers who were patrolling the night, and was about to escape, when he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Go and tell Zhang Qianhu that gangsters are coming to the barracks." ”

Zhu Hui knew that a good man was invincible, and he didn't know where to flee in this dark night?

In a trance, he suddenly found that on the street of Nanzushi'an, there were three horses like lightning, coming from north to south, mistaking Zhang Qianhu's men and horses, Zhu Hui hurriedly put out a six-step frame, ready to fight.

Running in front were two mighty men, they roared past Zhu Hui, and the horse behind him stopped beside him, and he heard an old woman shouting: "Childe, get on the horse quickly!" ”
