Chapter Twenty-Nine: Arrested
The little school guarding the door was not in a hurry, and after asking the reason, he sent someone to inform the other three doors, and said that the time for today's closing door has come, and he can only enter and exit after a quarter of an hour, but he also calmed down the complaints.
Immediately, Professor Hu led the scalper and others to the official office, asked a few errands on the way, and learned that now the lord Bo and Lord Zhizhou were discussing important matters with the master of the Wan family in the flower hall of the back hall, so he hurriedly went to the back hall.
When I entered the porch of the back hall, I heard a familiar voice from the flower hall: "Master, now without further ado, since there is Lord Zhizhou and Lord Bo as a guarantee, the old servant will go back and quickly sort out the title deed, and if it is too late, I am afraid that the thief will harm the life of the young master." ”
Another old voice said: "What Steward Wan said is that now the thieves are powerful, and it is important to save people, and this official has already gone to believe in the Wuwei Army, and when the official army comes, he will exterminate this gang of thieves, and he will definitely give you an explanation for the Wanjia family." ”
At this time, the scalper and the others had already walked to the door of the flower hall, and before Professor Hu could go in to report, Wan Jinbao rushed in, crossed his waist and pointed at the housekeeper Wan Fu in the hall and shouted: "Good dog thief, look who the young master is?" ”
Wan Jinbao's shout actually made the words in the flower hall stop, and when the scalper stepped into the flower hall, he saw his uncle and Lord Cao, the governor of Huangzhou, and a middle-aged man who had never seen it, but his eyebrows were eight points similar to Wan Jinbao, and Wan Fu, the old man of Luo Guo who had been seen on the passenger boat, was standing next to the middle-aged man at this time. Seeing the surprise on his face, the scalper also keenly noticed that this Wang Guinian quietly took a step back in astonishment, supported his waist with one hand, but took the corner of his eye to look at Cao Zhizhou who was sitting in the middle hall.
"Senior brother!" In a hurry, the scalper immediately shouted, Gongsun Zheng had been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he also saw the problem, so he heard a low roar in his mouth, and the loose sword on his back flew up, and he didn't know what means he used, and the scabbard flew towards Wanfu like a sharp arrow.
Wanfu's hands and feet were not slow, and he saw that he took out a weapon from his waist and opened the scabbard, and then the whole person rushed towards Cao Zhizhou like a jumping rabbit, but although he was very fast, his senior brother Gongsun Zheng was faster, and he was one step ahead of Cao Zhizhou, and the sword in his hand blocked Wanfu's way with a stroke.
Then I heard a few dings, and the weapons in the hands of the two of them touched together like popping beans, and then I heard Wang Guinian snort and took two steps back, and his left hand supported his right shoulder and said: "Good swordsmanship!" ”
At this time, everyone also saw that the weapon in his hand was actually an iron ruler with scales, and they wanted him to hide the iron ruler in his belt, but he was afraid that this iron ruler was made of soft steel.
Gongsun Zheng was hiding the sword on his back, and said with a smile: "It is said that the fist is afraid of being young and strong, and the predecessors are just old and weak, so they have conceded!" ”
"This ...... What kind of accident was this? Cao Zhizhou, who was blocked by Gongsun Zheng, came back to his senses, hurriedly jumped up from the chair, and pointed to Wan Fu, who was stained with blood on his shoulder, and said, "Steward Wan, how are you going?" ”
After looking at the scalper, his uncle Yao Zheng, who was surprised, also had a plan in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Don't panic, my lord, the lower official saw that the little young master who should have been in the Wan family just now exposed the housekeeper Wanfu, so Wanfu wanted to take the adult as a hostage first." ”
"Ahh Cao Zhizhou listened, and then he screamed, and jumped to Yao Zheng's side in two steps, but looked at Gongsun Zhengdao: "That...... Who is this strong man? ”
Yao Zheng turned his head to look at the scalper, and the scalper could only step forward and said: "I've seen Lord Cao, I am Huang Jie, the nephew of the master Bo, and this Taoist leader is my fellow senior brother." ”
"Oops! Thanks to this strong man! Cao Zhizhou read a few words before he remembered the scalper, and then said: "You are Huang Jie, not to mention that you were also captured by Huang Huadang's thieves?" And you, but Wan Jinbao and Wan Siniang, how did they come back? ”
The scalper said in his heart that Cao Zhizhou didn't know if the reflex arc was too long, why was he still frightened and confused until this moment...... Wait, what the hell is a reflection arc?
He could only explain: "It was with my senior brother who came to the rescue, and I was able to come back, and on the thief's boat, I heard the trick of this ten thousand housekeepers with my own ears, and I wanted to report it to the adults, but I didn't know that they ran into each other and caught the thief." ”
"I see? Someone! Come on, take down this 10,000 housekeeper and this official! Cao Zhizhou finally came back to his senses and drank loudly. Soon there were officials with iron chains and shackles to lock, Wanfu did not resist, let the officials knock off the iron ruler in their hands, lock a strong, Gongsun Zheng found the scabbard, saw that his shoulder was still bleeding, so he stepped forward for him and took out a silver needle on his shoulder and stabbed him a few times, and the bleeding stopped.
Later, Cao Zhizhou and Yao Zheng changed their official uniforms, and notified the heads of the various offices, asking them to light torches and light bright candles, and they had to try the case overnight. When it came to Wan Nianqing, he took Wan Chunnu and Wan Jinbao to the side room for questioning, and when he said goodbye, he looked at the scalper with a different gaze than before.
At the beginning of the shift, everything was ready, and in the mighty shouts of the third class of officials, Wan Fu, who was stripped of his robe and only wearing a profane clothes, was escorted into the lobby of the Huangzhou Mansion.
"Smack!" With a shocking shot, Cao Zhizhou was wearing a scarlet official robe, wearing a five-grade official hat, and his ear wings were a foot long and swaying, looking like there was an indescribable majesty.
Cao Zhizhou looked left and right, and after signaling to his colleagues such as the same acquaintance, the main officer, and the general judge who asked about the case together, as well as the Huainan Road criminal officer who happened to be handling the Wanjia extermination case in Huangzhou, he sat down and asked, "Who is in the hall?" Get your name in! Whatever is done, come through the passage! ”
"Hahahaha!" Wan Fu, who was wearing heavy shackles and shackles in the hall, first raised his head and laughed a few times when he heard this, and then swept away the people in the hall: "The old man Wang Guinian is originally from Shouzhou. Because he committed a major crime 20 years ago, he joined Huangzhou Wanjia as a housekeeper and changed his name to Wanfu. ”
Seeing him speak, everyone in the hall did not urge, and waited for him to tell the story: "The case that the old man committed today is also very simple, first colluded with the heroes of Baihu Village, Bagong Mountain, Shouzhou, to rob ten thousand grain ships, and then killed and injured Bai Niu'er, the second son of the big boss of Huanghuadang Chilong Village, who took care of the grain boats, and sent it to Qi County, and then on the way, Bai Niu'er who was escorted to Jiangling Mansion was shot with one arrow, and then he made someone kidnap Wan Nianqing's daughter, and colluded with the seven masters of Huanghuadang Chilong Village to kill a pair of children of Wan Jia, how about it? ”
"Huh?" Cao Zhizhou listened to him tell him about this incident, but he was stunned and couldn't figure it out, so he could only look at his colleagues left and right, and finally it was the criminal officer on Huainan Road who coughed lightly, and Cao Zhizhou hurriedly said: "This case is not the director of this official, the thief is unruly and doesn't know what to say, Zhao Tixing might as well act." ”
