At a thriving wonton stall in Xiaocifang, Fucheng, a scholar dressed in a half-new cloth is eating wontons like other guests. He didn't raise his head until a person sat down across from him. Seeing that this young man was the main person he had been waiting for for a long time, he couldn't help but smile proudly, took a sip of soup slowly, took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, as if this was not a roadside stall, but in some exquisite and good restaurant. It wasn't until he tucked the veil back into his sleeve that he opened his mouth.

"How, figured it out?"

"When you saw me yesterday, you were actually seen! Did you know that you almost killed me? Qiu Feng glared at the person in front of him angrily, thinking that the first time the other party tempted him with redemption and Wuyuan Academy, he was even dressed in disguise, and he suddenly became angry, "If I hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and immediately confessed everything, maybe I would have died at this time!" ”

Cheng Wenlie suddenly smiled, he raised his hand and ordered the man to give Qiu Feng a bowl of wontons, and then asked with interest about the past, and then lightly high-fived and exclaimed: "Not bad, yes, make a decision at the critical moment, bet on the trust that Wang Xiaoguan has in you, I really didn't misunderstand you." So, have you figured it out? Your family has received more than 100 taels of silver from me, and if you don't agree, with my ability, I can arrange a charge for them to sit in prison! You must know that your petty official Wang is at most in the county seat, but here in the city, that is my world! ”

"You've got all the handles like this, what else can I do?" Qiu Feng clenched his fist tightly, and after a long while, he took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said, "However, after the matter is completed, in addition to the five hundred taels of silver you promised, I have to leave Huizhou Mansion, and I will go to Chongzheng Academy in Nanjing!" You arrange a household registration for me in Nanzhili, so that the family will only knock on the bone and suck the marrow, I'm fed up! From then on, the bridge returned to the bridge, the road returned to the road, they didn't have my son, and I didn't have these families! ”

If Qiu Feng just opened his mouth to agree, Cheng Wenlie still had to think about it, would this be the other party's counter-plan, but now Qiu Feng directly opened his mouth, and expressed his deep hatred for the family members who were dragging his feet, but he felt that there was a drama in this matter. So, he nodded happily, and then said with a smile: "I can agree to these conditions, but don't you think it's not a good habit to talk in the open mouth?" I've given so much to your family, shouldn't you give it back? ”

After being silent for a moment, Qiu Feng sneered: "Then I'll tell you a piece of news, the household Wu Division, and the Liu Hui who has always been close to the petty officials, now the two of them seem to be upside down, the old subordinates have become the bosses, and the old bosses have become subordinates, and there are some discords in secret, and they both want to get each other down." But that's just a superficial effort! Wu Siyi has long been Ye Xianzun's person, he betrayed Zhao Sicheng at the beginning, he is the biggest hero, and the petty officials have already wooed Wu Siyi, promising to move him to the same rich torture room, but ask him to help do one thing. After the matter was completed, he asked Ye Xianzun to transfer him to the torture room to be in charge of the case! ”

Cheng Wenlie originally thought that Qiu Feng would casually say something to fool him, and he didn't plan to push it too hard at first, but he never thought that it would come out of this little boy's mouth, it turned out to be such a news! He suddenly thought that there was a message from the Yamen of She County today, saying that Zhang Min had been strictly ordered by Ye Junyao to continue to seek justice for the bitter lord of She County on the side of the government and ask for the deceived property, and Zhang Min relied on this reason to say to Chen Liujia that he had handed over the task of forcing Ye Junyao to do his best to implement the matter of equalization to the household Wu Si Official, and even asked him to help watch the affairs of the torture room, he only felt that all the hairs on his body stood up!

If this is really like what Qiu Feng said, it is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain and occupy the dove's nest!

Cheng Wenlie didn't even bother to say anything to Qiu Feng, so he casually dropped a handful of copper and left in a hurry immediately. As soon as he left, Qiu Feng put all the more than ten yuan together, called Xiao Er to ask the price of the two bowls of wontons, counted the ten yuan, and swept the rest into his pocket money bag, and then began to eat the wontons one by one, until he ate them without waste, and even drank the soup in the bowl before he got up and left. Seeing that the person had disappeared, Cheng Wenlie, who had just left in a hurry, appeared from the door of a shop opposite.

At this time, Cheng Wenlie was already very sure that what Qiu Feng said was true! If he lied to him, he hurried back to report to Wang Fulin immediately after he succeeded, how could he wait until now? is that the extra seven or eight dollars have to be pocketed, which is very in line with the experience of this kid from a poor background and being sold into slavery by his parents at a young age.

When Zhang Min worked hard to get rid of the gang of people in the government torture room, and successfully helped the few bitter masters who wanted to die and live to bring back a set of varnish furniture and a family heirloom purple clay pot, he looked at the small ingot in his hand that was less than two taels of silver at most, and his forehead was bruised. But this is a matter of the county's ancestors, he can only press down that grievance, and then comfort himself and say that although mosquitoes are small, they are also meat, so he has such an excuse, he can perfunctory Chen Liujia and continue to take root in the government to engage in the great cause of making money. After all, once this case is over, there will be no store in this village!

"Priest, there's someone looking for you outside!"

Zhang Min casually stuffed the small piece of silver into his arms, and was a little impatient, only to see the door suddenly pushed open, followed by Chen Liujia! He was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand at the white-clothed clerk who followed quickly and loyally protected the lord. After driving people out, he hurriedly stepped forward and closed the door, and then said with a smile: "Chen Ye has something to say, how dare you bother to come over in person?" I can't do anything today, the order of the county lord cannot be violated, and I also asked someone to send a letter to Chen Ye......"

"Well, I don't want to hear that from you!" Chen Liujia's face was full of irritability, and after he stopped Zhang Min's nagging, he said with a gloomy face, "You sent a letter saying that you handed over the things I asked you to do, and you handed them over to the Wu official in the household?" ”

"Yes, Chen Ye doesn't know this guy, he has been a bookkeeper for twenty or thirty years, and now it is easy to sit firmly in the position of the secretary, and he is most afraid of being replaced......"

"Idiot, just because he is most afraid of being replaced, he will hug Ye Xianzun's thick thighs with all his might! This guy is fooling you at all, he and Liu will wear the same pants, and he is also Ye Xianzun's person! You also asked him to help you watch the punishment room, and let him lead the promotion of Junping Xia tax silk, do you know that this is a tiger skin? Chen Liujia said this in one breath, and when he saw Zhang Min dumbfounded, he shouted angrily, "You won't give him the bottom of Old Lady Wang, right?" ”

Seeing that Zhang Min's face suddenly became extremely delicate, Chen Liujia only wanted to kick this guy who had more than enough to do. It's just that before he got Cheng Wenlie's letter, he himself never thought that the old guy who didn't hum or ha, but was just **** luck, could still play such tricks! So, he immediately said with a gloomy face: "In short, even if you can't go back by yourself, immediately send a few safe people back and give me this old guy to watch to death." One Liu Hui is already troublesome enough, plus one him, if the old lady's plan is really in vain, you will come to see you when the time comes! ”

As soon as Chen Liujia left, Zhang Min lost the trembling just now, and his expression suddenly became surprisingly hideous. Hunting geese all day long but being pecked by geese, how can he swallow this breath?

He took a deep breath, but he didn't want to follow Chen Liujia's instructions and send a few confidants back to carry the matter of the torture room, but decided to give Wu Si Officials a surprise! As for Ye Xianzun's order, he has just asked for the things of the bitter masters who made trouble at the gate of the county ya, if Ye Junyao picks bones in the eggs, it will be a big deal, you must know that the personnel changes in the county yali have been so big recently, and there are more people with opinions! When you dare to be angry and dare not speak out, you will become really angry, even if Ye Junyao is a county honor, you don't want to cover the sky with one hand!

So, he summoned all the people he brought to him, and after urgently assigning the task, he took the two white-clothed clerks and hurried out. Here is placed in his outer room, the yellow-faced woman at home knows it, but she doesn't dare to make trouble, now it has long passed the bright road, he often goes here to coil, this time taking the opportunity to go to Fucheng on business, but also regarded this as a comfortable nest, almost happy. At this moment, although this young and beautiful outer room was sent all the way out, full of reluctance and tenderness, he ignored it ruthlessly.

Just when he personally opened the door of this mansion, he was stunned for a moment. I saw dozens of big men standing on the small street outside the door, and a few of them were familiar faces, and when I saw him come out, the person headed by him smiled maliciously and said: "Commander Zhang, I'm sorry, I'm offended!" Brothers, take this guy! ”

Almost as soon as the words fell, a group of fast hands rushed up, and chains tied Zhang Min like zongzi. Someone even stuffed a rag in his mouth to keep him from screaming in panic. Also unlucky were the two bookstores around him, who were also tied up with three times and five divided by two. Seeing that Zhang Min's outer room of the other house was frightened and at a loss, the middle-aged man who had just given the order stepped forward with a smile, and actually touched her face, and then said gloomily: "Who is not good with, but with such a guy who can be your father?" ”

After saying this, he didn't look at this pretty young woman anymore, and commanded sharply: "Master Shu has a life, lock up all the breathing in this house for me, and take it back to the mansion to wait for interrogation!" actually blackmailed the bitter master, turning the sky upside down! ”

When there was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping in front of me, at the back door of this house, a figure slipped out quietly. After passing through the dark alleys and a few streets, he went from Deshengmen to the county seat of Shexian County, and he had the strength to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then ran to the county office in the county front street with a trot.
