Although it was already night fast, a mule cart walked through the night, picking those small alleys without wooden fences, and it was quite safe. None of the two men on horseback and carriage were too talkative, and one of them was accompanied by an empty mount with the reins, and only the cold wind rustled in this snowy night. And the man who drove the car was the one who claimed to Wang Fulin that he had beaten the Japanese in Fujian, and now he was wearing a hat and pursing his lips, but he was a little more dignified than the previous hippie smile.

In the mule cart, Shuai Jiamo, who was covered with a thick quilt, was half leaning against the wall, and after the effect of the hemp boiling powder had passed, the pain in the wound on his body and the bumps of the mule cart made his facial features twitch together. Despite this, with a pale face, he still stared at Wang Fulin who was sitting on the side, as if only this young man sitting beside him could give him a feeling of peace of mind. I don't know how long it took before he opened his mouth and asked in a low voice, "When did Wang Xiaoguan enter Beijing?" ”

"Today." Wang Fulin spit out two words concisely, and seeing that Shuai Jiamo was stunned for a while, he spread his hands helplessly and said, "Don't think I'm talking nonsense with you, an injured person, to have fun." I had just returned to She County after I was busy with Nanjing, and my uncle, Mr. Zhongyan, rushed over from the capital on fire, saying that you were in the capital, and there was a lot of turmoil, so that I, who had caused trouble, hurried to clean up the mess. So I only stayed at home for a few days, and I didn't care that the Huaiyang section of the canal was still blocked, and the north of the Shandong section had been frozen, so I came directly from Beijing by land. As a result, as soon as I arrived today, I encountered this incident. ”

Although he was in the class room of She County, he was closely protected by Zhao Wuye and other officials. Shuai Jiamo didn't hear anything outside the window. I don't know much about Wang Fulin. But he later jumped out of the circle of right and wrong in the six counties of Huizhou, and single-mindedly wanted to uncover the black hole of She County's many years of servitude in front of higher-level bigwigs, but he heard a lot of things from the mouths of others.

Legend has it that this little Xiucai from Songming Mountain in She County stood up with the then Hangzhou prefect Yan Yuan in the rebellion of Beixinguan in Hangzhou and quelled the riots; Legend has it that Wang Fulin was in the town of Hankou, where the Hui merchants had the absolute upper hand. Insight into a conspiracy to provoke the contradictions between the Hui merchants and the Dongting merchants, so that the two sides can temporarily bridge the contradictions; Legend has it that Wang Fulin was a giant thief in Huizhou and sent Ye Junyao, the commander of She County, to the position of the new Huining Dao; Legend has it that this person was coerced back to Zhenjiang Dantu by Shao Fang, the mastermind behind the scenes, and then easily escaped, and led a good show of Wang's change of ownership in Yangzhou......

As for the things that Wang Fulin tossed on the ground in the six counties of Huizhou, he also knew a lot. Therefore, he did not doubt Wang Fulin's position. As an outstanding young talent among the people, how can he not want to reduce the burden of his fellow villagers? So. He chose to believe the other party after being seriously injured and left the hospital.

At this moment. Realizing that he was in the capital, Wang Daokun, the squire of the military department, knew everything about it, and Shuai Jiamo couldn't help but ask again: "Since Mr. Nanming knew that I was in the capital, why did he turn me away before, and refused to come forward to say a word when I was running to ask for help?" ”

Wang Daokun refused to come forward to say a word, according to the meaning that Wang Daoguan had relayed before, it was clear that he wanted to continue to press the matter, and wait for Yin Zhengmao to be transferred back first and sit firmly in the position of the head of the household! It is related to the interests of the party in the township, in contrast, it doesn't matter if Xia Shui Sijuan's matter is delayed for two years, just like what he thought at the beginning, in the case that Shuai Jiamo has no news at all, it is not a procrastination?

Wang Fulin did not break through this layer of joints, but pulled the quilt for Shuai Jiamo, who was now haggard like an old man, and saw that his exposed hands were skinny, he remembered that he had persuaded him to leave Huizhou to go to Nanjing and even Beijing to seek a complaint, and he couldn't help but want to ask what was going on. But now that the other party has fallen into this, he doesn't know how to speak. Maybe it was because he saw his hesitation, or maybe he hadn't been able to meet someone who could spit out in the past few years, Shuai Jiamo actually talked to himself.

"Three years ago, you persuaded me to leave Huizhou to file a complaint, so I left with my family. In addition to the one hundred taels of silver you sent, the leaders of the Zhuang class Zhao and the other leaders also made up fifty taels of coils for me. You must know that in the home of ordinary people, a dozen taels of silver is enough for a year, but this one hundred and fifty taels is all spent in more than a year! Food, clothing, housing and transportation, I dare to say that these four things are carefully calculated, and not a penny has been wasted, but more of them are used to deal with those insatiable officials, and there is ......"

Shuai Jiamo lifted the quilt all of a sudden, revealing his legs. The leg covered with bloody bandages can still be seen to be unnaturally bent, and in those places where there are no bandages, they are not complete pieces of good meat, and there are traces of old wounds in many places. Seeing that Wang Fulin's face was full of shock and anger, Shuai Jiamo, who was no longer young, laughed in a voice that was worse than crying.

"Wang Xiaoguan is afraid that he didn't think about it at that time, that is, he left Huizhou, as long as I am still entangled in the matter of Xia Shui silk, it is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of some people. In the past three years, I have almost lost my life several times, and even caused trouble to my family, and finally had to send them back to my hometown. Every time I ask myself, my ancestral home is not from She County, but because my family once had a military registration in Xin'anwei, I settled down in She County, why is it so thankless? In the fourteenth year of Jiajing, Cheng Peng and Wang Xiang had reported the matter, but they died before they could achieve a result. And more than 100 years ago, Lu Zongyuan, a widower, once sued and died an unknown death! So it's not that there are no discerning people, but this matter is like a lid that has been tightly covered by someone, the officials above are pressed, and the people who benefit are also pressed, only those of us who do not believe in evil hit our heads and bleed! ”

Wang Fulin used to feel that it was not worth making such a storm for the sake of a county's thousands of taels of summer tax silk a year, and he thought he was smart enough to believe that from the founding of the country to the present, the summer tax and autumn grain, which is a regular tax, have long been no longer the main burden of the people, and the real heavy burden lies in all kinds of military expenses and miscellaneous apportionments. After all, as long as the emperor thinks of any expenses, he can pat his head and apportion, even if the ministers persuade again and again, but in the end, they can block the emperor's lion mouth back by a small half, then they can already be regarded as iron-clad ministers. But now in the face of such a person who was covered in injuries and tears, he felt that he was wrong.

Even if it's for fame or profit, it's always respectable to fight for so long. What's more, if the bad debts of thousands of taels of summer tax silk in Huizhou Mansion, are there any other state capitals in the world? How many?

He tried his best not to worry about these things first, and asked calmly: "Mr. Shuai almost lost his life today, do you know if anyone is behind it?" ”

He couldn't manage the things before, but he couldn't stand by and watch the future!

"It's always those who are flies and dogs." Shuai Jiamo sneered indifferently, and said lightly, "One of the big reasons why I can't lift the lid of the Xia tax silk silk of Shexian County's independent faction for so many years is because the houses on the side of the government are controlled by the Wuyuan people all the year round, and the scribes from the priests to the scribes collude with each other. And they naturally don't work in vain, they have their own local eunuchs to flaunt this and win the admiration of the foolish people in the countryside. As for some scholars who are like litigants, they are willing to be eagle dogs on the left and right. ”

Shuai Jiamo's mouth was ruthless, Wang Fulin chewed these words, but he also knew that Shuai Jiamo was angry, and this may not be the case. But at this time, he didn't want to argue with the old man who was too frustrated, so he only covered the quilt again, and then opened the thick cotton curtain and asked someone who was driving: "After turning around in circles for so long, how far do you have to go?" ”

"Petty officials, just because it's a night curfew, it's the best way to get rid of some unidentified guys. We have the master's famous thorn, and there is such an injured person in the car, even if the people of the Dongcheng Terracotta Division really stop the car to check, then don't worry, but those sneaky guys are different, after catching the night after a dozen dozen or thirty small boards, who can stand it? Besides, don't you still have two people to press the formation, even if they use their brains, they have to wonder if they have the strength. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, don't say that they are just little snakes crossing the river, even if they cross the river, they have to coil up! ”

However, just as these confident words were spoken, I saw a few black-clothed people suddenly blocking the way not far away. Rao is man who drove a car once followed Wang Daokun to kill the Japanese in Fujian, but the time has passed for almost ten years, and now he is in the most peaceful imperial capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he only felt that a bucket of ice water was poured from the head, and for the first time he felt that he didn't understand the deep meaning behind such a simple thing. Isn't it just a little thing about Shexian Xia tax silk? Even if there are many people in the other five counties who are dissatisfied with Shuai Jiamo, an eventful person, as for making such a big battle? As for the robbery and murder of the squire's relatives at the feet of the Son of Heaven?

Just when he subconsciously clenched the steel knife on his waist, he only heard Wang Fulin's angry shout from behind him: "As long as someone dares to make the first move, then there will be no forgiveness!" I don't believe that the veterans of the Zhejiang army will lose the battle when they fight! ”

The temporary coachman was taken aback, he was not the Zhejiang army brought out by Qi Jiguang, one beat ten and boasted, and it was already very reluctant to fight two or three, could it be that Wang Fulin said this because he wanted the offender to retreat? But at this moment, he saw two horsemen rushing forward, one left and one right, guarding the carriage, and they had already drawn their swords out of their sheaths. At this moment, he realized that the so-called veteran of the Zhejiang Army in Wang Fulin's mouth was talking about those two people! When he saw those black shadows still rushing forward fiercely, the weapons in his hands reflecting the cold light under the light of the glass lamp next to the carriage, he only felt that his heart was in his throat.

Could it be that you really want to have a fierce battle on a snowy night in this imperial capital of Beijing?
