Chapter 33 The owner of Qi Zhuang who disarmed and returned to the field
Wang Ping'an was put into a sack, his heart panicked beyond words, he had never encountered this kind of thing in modern times, this was the first time in the Tang Dynasty, there was no experience to find, he had to beg for words in the sack, the hero does not suffer the immediate loss, at this time, if you pretend to be hard, it is easy to eat sticks, it is too unwise.
He said: "Two heroes, Xiaosheng really has no money, just passing by, it's useless for you to tie me up, I have neither wealth nor color, and I won't get any benefit if I rob me!" ”
A strong man picked him up, patted his buttocks through the sack, and said with a smile: "Who said that whoever takes a stick in the middle of the night must be a robber, and he must tie up your ticket?" We are the people who put the horses, serious people, not robbers! ”
"Not a robber, what are you going to do with a sack for me?" Wang Ping'an is so aggrieved, he wants to struggle, and he is afraid of suffering losses in front of him.
Another strong man said: "You send him back first, don't hurt him, otherwise it will be difficult to talk in the yamen, I will wait here to see if there is anyone to find again." ”
With a sigh, the big man with Wang Ping'an on his back threw off his stride and trotted all the way, no matter how Wang Ping'an asked him on the way, he didn't answer!
After a long period of bumps, the strong man stopped, and seemed to have come to a place where there were people, Wang Ping'an was through the sack, although he couldn't see it, but he heard a lot of people talking, and the voices were all men. Wang Ping'an cried out in his heart, this is coming to the robber's den, fatal, fatal!
Someone asked: "He Laosan, why did you bring back this one after being ambushed for most of the day, didn't the people from Wuli Village come to look for it, and let these people stay in our village?" ”
The strong man carrying Wang Ping'an on his back said: "Where do I know what the people in Wuli Village think, it's not even midnight, I guess I didn't expect us to be able to detain people!" He put down the sack and released Wang Ping'an.
Wang Ping'an only felt that the fire in front of him was dazzling, and he got used to it, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he was in a large courtyard, and in front of him was a vast hall, which seemed to be an ancestral hall. In the courtyard stood two groups of strong men, both holding torches in their hands, their waists straight, judging from their standing postures, they all seemed to be well-trained, quite the temperament of army soldiers, but not like mountain bandits.
"Ping'an, Ping'an, why are you also arrested!" Suddenly, someone shouted.
Wang Ping'an was stunned, isn't this his father's voice! He looked into the ancestral hall and saw that there were several rows of tablets on the top of the hall, and there was a big man sitting under the side of the tablet table, and next to the big man sat his father Wang Youcai, and there were five or six people squatting next to Wang Youcai, all of whom were villagers of Wuli Village. Not far behind them, there stood five or six strong men, all of them tall and straight, like nails.
Before Wang Ping'an could answer, the big man in the hall said: "Where did Master Wang say this, how can he say that he was arrested, and he still has to say that he was 'also' arrested?" We put the horse village is a place for the imperial court to recuperate and recuperate, abide by the law, and never arrest people indiscriminately! Master Wang came to us, we are staying guests, this little boy is here, we are invited! ”
Wang Youcai was in the mood to reason with the big man, he stood up and said, "Son, how did you come here, there is something at home, go home quickly!" As he spoke, he wanted to come over, but a big man behind him pressed Wang Youcai back into the chair with a big hand.
The strong man named He Laosan pushed Wang Ping'an and pushed him into the hall. Wang Ping'an was pushed into the house, and he was so surprised in his heart, it turned out that this was not a robber's den, but a rest house for the government soldiers? How did my father get into trouble with the people in the army, and what the hell is going on?
After he came to Wang Youcai, he took his father's hand and said, "Dad, what's the matter, our family hasn't paid enough taxes?" ”
Wang Youcai clenched his son's hand, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If this matter is not solved today, then you will really not be able to pay taxes in the future!" ”
The big man snorted and said, "Master Wang said that we are laughing, we don't want to occupy all the river water, why do you say it so miserably, as if we are bullying you!" ”
Wang Youcai thought to himself: "Isn't it just bullying, detaining me, and arresting my son, isn't it bullying, is it still not possible to serve people?" I was dissatisfied, but I didn't dare to say it.
The big man in the hall picked up two pieces of paper from the coffee table, shook them, and said, "You don't press this contract with your fingerprint, if you don't want to press it, let your son press it." Well, this is your little boy? looks handsome, but his body is thinner! ”
Wang Youcai shook his head like a rattle, and said continuously: "The old man can't press this handprint, your contract is going to cut off the livelihood of our whole village, how can I agree, I don't press the handprint, don't press it!" ”
Some of the big men who were guarding them shouted angrily: "Don't toast, don't eat, and punish wine." Now it's just a matter of sharing some of your river, and if you get the yamen, then even your land will be divided! ”
Don't look at Wang Youcai, who is usually a good gentleman and is very easy to speak, but when he encounters major problems, he is not weak at all, no matter how the big men shout and threaten, they just don't nod and agree. Wang Ping'an couldn't figure out what was going on, and he couldn't say anything to help his father.
At the moment of shouting, suddenly a small man ran into the back hall, and said a few words in the ear of the big man in the hall, the big man's face changed, he stood up and said: "Master Wang, think about it again, if you can't figure it out, then let's go into the city tomorrow to see the official!" As he spoke, he strode into the back hall, looking hurried and not knowing what to do.
Wang Ping'an asked his father in a low voice, who is this person, and what happened to make him an official? Wang Youcai said a few words to him, and Wang Ping'an understood.
It turns out that this Fangmazhuang is different from Wuli Village, which belongs to the place where ordinary people live, and Fangmazhuang is a place for veterans to recuperate.
The old owner of Fangmazhuang is named Boss Qi, who rebelled with Tang Gaozu Li Yuan at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and was a soldier in the army at that time. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the original soldiers were more or less allocated some land, and the land shared by Boss Qi and his soldiers was outside Xuzhou City, which was the most fertile land, in the upper reaches of the Xiaoxigou River. The name of Fangmazhuang is taken from the meaning of Jiejia and returning to the field, and the horse is put on the South Mountain.
The Xiaoxigou River is a tributary of the Yellow River, not too big and not much water, with Fangmazhuang in the upper reaches and Wuli Village in the lower reaches of the river. For the croppers who farm for a living, water is life, and without water, there is no way to irrigate the crops, so they will not be able to harvest, and there will be no food, so the river water in Xiaoxigou is a very important production resource.
During the day today, Wang Ping'an saw Wang Fusheng, and once talked about not drinking river water, Wang Youcai was on his mind, feeling that these days, the water level of the river seems to be indeed a lot lower, so he took the villagers along the river, wanting to see what the reason is.
As a result, I found all the way to Fangmazhuang, and found that the people in Zhuangzi had opened a fork in the river and dug a new small river channel, which led to a lot of river water, which caused the downstream water to decrease! Wang Youcai immediately did not do it, when the horse village was just built, there was a contract with Wuli Village, specifically talking about the problem of river water, at that time the old owner Qi Boss was a newcomer, and he was very talkative, and promised never to fork the river without authorization, so as not to cause the water of the downstream river to be insufficient, affecting the harvest.
But this year, the old owner Qi Boss didn't care about anything, and his son Qi Huan became the new owner of the village, not to mention that he would discuss it with Wang Youcai, so he would fork the river. Wang Youcai came to him to reason, and he even detained Wang Youcai, and insisted that he sign a new contract and clearly promise in writing to redistribute the river water! How can the king agree to this kind of thing, this is a big question about his future life, and there is absolutely no discussion!
Wang Ping'an was one head and two big, and the pain was terrible, he whispered: "Dad, they are government soldiers, and there are naturally people in the government, and we are afraid that we will suffer a loss in a lawsuit!" ”
Wang Youcai sighed: "So, you will definitely be admitted to the imperial examination in the future, don't let your father be so old, and suffer from this kind of wretchedness!" ”
