"Damn the official family is secretly doing it..."

Thinking of these bad things, Ma Quan scolded in a low voice, turned to leave, but didn't take a few steps, Yu Wu suddenly came out from behind him, because Ma Quan's mind was gathered, he didn't pay attention, and he was immediately frightened.

In addition to being frightened, Ma Quan held back his anger and breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and glared: "You footless ghost, you walk silently... Scare Lao Tzu so much! ”

"Don't be angry, little grandfather!" Yu Wu looked left and right, and made sure that there was no one, so he approached and whispered: "The master asked me to come!" ”

Hearing this, Ma Quan's heart moved, and he stopped speaking, and after a few words, Yu Wu explained: "Little grandfather, Yue Changfa came here to give an order, and the lord suspected that there was fraud, but Yue Changfa gave the order on behalf of the county guard, and he couldn't disrespect it, so the master ordered you to go and investigate it quickly, and find out the filthy roots of Yue Changfa's secret work, so that we don't be calculated and kept in the dark!" ”

Two miles south of Xialong County, Yue Changfa's little officials and a few officials ate wine in the village entrance wine shop, a few sips of old wine on the lower abdomen, with the marinated roe deer meat, which made the little officials call out for comfort.

"This is called the day!" The little official wiped his mouth and said: "But then again, let's follow the old man all day long, earn a little money, and pour that bowl of thin soup, what are we trying to do?" If you think about it, I'm afraid it's not even as good as a dog! ”

The little official said to himself through the strength of the wine, in the excitement, it was inevitable that he had passed a little bit, and several officials echoed him, one of them said: "The official master, said well, we are living the life of a family dog, your official lord Yue Changfa is a mansion after all, and he is also the first few masters in Lincheng, but when it comes to rewarding money, compared to Ma Xiaogong, it is simply..."

"Simply what?" The little official came back to his senses and quickly changed his words, but the yacha was pushed by the little official, and he couldn't grasp the thoughts of the little official, so he didn't dare to continue, so the little official burped and said: "Don't blame the little master for not reminding you, no matter how good the little master is, he is not your master, if you can't distinguish between inside and outside, your head will grow white!" ”

Hearing the reprimand of the junior official, several officials looked at each other, and in the end, they could only laugh.

A few people ate for a while, and after drying up a jar of old wine, they got up to settle the bill, and the little old man in the wine shop saw that these people were the masters of the official family, so they didn't dare to charge a penny, and the little officials and others were not coquettish, and immediately left with a smile. On the way back to the camp of the army, the little official leaned on the carriage and hummed a song leisurely, but this comfortable appearance did not last long before it was interrupted by the arrival of a group of horsemen

"Stop!"

Under the angry shouting, the little officials stopped the carriage and looked up, and more than ten men with horizontal knives on their waists had blocked the way.

"Who are you waiting for? Open your dog's eyes wide, this is the car of the Lincheng official? Dare to intercept us, tired and white! ”

The little official was arrogant, and he changed to the bandit bully next to him, and when he heard the name of the official, he would definitely give way, but these people in front of him were obviously not bandits, but the leader snorted coldly, signaled slightly, and the rider behind him immediately rushed up. Seeing this, the little official was anxious, but these people didn't give him any nonsense kung fu, and in the blink of an eye, several yacha and the little official were taken down by the rider, and when the horizontal knife fell on the neck, the little official suddenly changed his appearance: "The good man spares his life... Spare your life! ”

"Lord asked you, but the Lincheng official family?"

"Yes, yes... The little Yue He is the personal entourage of Lord Fucheng, and these people are the servants of the government..."

"What are you talking about, shut up for the master, otherwise the master will cut your tongue!" The rider made sure that he had not caught the wrong person, and immediately reprimanded, and the frightened little officials and these children quickly stopped their mouths and shrank their heads, lest the rider man not be able to stop the fire and slash with a knife, then he would be moldy. Subsequently, these inexplicable horsemen escorted the little officials and others out of the village road, turned onto a nearby path, and walked about half a mile, far away, at the fork in the hill, the horses were all leading several horses to wait here.

When the little official saw Ma Quan, he couldn't hold back and opened his mouth to call for help, but the rider next to him didn't care at all, but came in front of Ma Quanquan first: "Little grandfather, it's these people!" ”

Seeing this scene, the little official was stunned, and the horse came to the front of the car and said in a deep voice: "There are some things that you need to explain to me clearly!" ”

"Little grandpa, why are you here, little... The little one didn't offend you! The little official didn't know the reason, and wanted to pull a thing or two to free himself, but Ma Quan had already shot out with one arm, and stuck the neck of the little official: "The little master doesn't have the kung fu to talk to you, saying, whose order did Yue Changfa come from?" The order was written by the county keeper himself? ”

"The little grandfather is angry, the little grandfather is angry, the little one is just Lord Yue's groom, where will I know..."

The little official didn't finish speaking, Ma Quan looked at the pro-soldier sideways, the pro-soldier copied the knife and stepped forward, and cut it as a gesture, the little official's face was pale with fright, and he didn't come up in one breath, and passed out directly, but Ma Quan was prepared early, let go and threw off Yue He, and the pro-soldier poured a water bag on it, followed by two old punches, and the little official quickly sobered up.

"Yue He, don't give the master a sloppy look, if it really kills you, it's like stepping on an ant to death!" Ma Quan said coldly: "You also said before that you are a horseman, so there is no need to fight for an official bastard like Yue Changfa, tell me everything you know, the master will protect you from death, otherwise, this is your resting place!" ”

Ma Quan's words fell, and the soldiers on the left and right slipped up Yue He, took three steps and did two steps, and dragged Yue He to the pit dug in advance.

"Dog offal, go down!"

The soldiers scolded, raised their feet and kicked Yue He down, Yue He rolled to the bottom of the pit with a grunt, looking at the rider who was about to move the shovel, he suddenly became empty: "The little grandfather spares his life... I... I really don't know whose order Lord Yue was ordered..."

Hearing this, Ma Quan turned around, and several horsemen immediately started to fill the pit, Yue He's face was pale, and he was scared to survive, but his own soldiers pressed the blade, there was no way to escape, and he was in a hurry, Yue He suddenly remembered the events of the previous two days, so he said urgently: "Little grandfather, two days before this order came down, the former mansion Yu Hailong had secretly sent someone to see Lord Yue, and the little one sent Lord Yue to the Yu Mansion at that time, and waited until the time of the son, the master returned to the house... Little grandfather, I know so much, please be merciful and spare your little life! ”

"Yu Hailong..."Hearing these three words, Ma Quan's heart suddenly became angry, Yu Hailong was the previous mansion, as a famous squire in Lincheng, he had exclusive power, and he had always been at odds with his own family, if there was this old ghost involved, his father's worries were really on the matter.

"Wait!" Ma Quan stopped the rider who was filling the pit, and after a little thought, Ma Quan motioned left and right to pull Yue He out of the pit, he walked to him, patted the clod of soil on Yue He's shoulder, and said quietly: "It's okay if you say no earlier!" ”
