Xiaojing Lake is located thirty miles outside Xinyang City, and is a well-known freshwater lake. Because the water area is bordered by the Yangtze River, the fishery resources here are also very rich. Fishermen's homes built by the lake can also be found everywhere here.

Compared with these fishermen, who have built their houses near mountains and rivers, Ruan Xingzhu, who is looking for on this trip, is to avoid being disturbed by the world. Lives alone in the upper reaches of Lake Ozai, in a valley that is rarely visited.

It was not suitable for horseback riding, and it was too far on foot, so the best way to do it was to rent a fishing boat. Therefore, Zhao Xiaoxi and others, who rushed here, handed over the horses they were riding to the guards who were waiting here for safekeeping.

Sitting on the two fishing boats rented by Wu Wei, the group was under the boatman's support. Started along the mirror-like small mirror lake of the lake, all the way to the place where Ruan Xingzhu lived. Although there are not many people there, fishing boats pass by from time to time.

Looking at Ah Zhu, who was slightly expectant and nervous, Qiao Feng, who was standing beside her, had been a little bolder recently. shook one of her hands and comforted: "Zhu'er, don't be too nervous, Brother Yun has already sent someone to inquire, your mother should be at home today." ”

Perhaps feeling Qiao Feng's comfort, Ah Zhu put down his nervousness a little, squeezed out a smile and said, "Thank you, Brother Qiao, I'm much better now." It's just that when I think of my mother's parents living in this kind of place all these years, I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. ”

Oh, yes! Although the two sisters were sent away since childhood, their lives have been bumpy many times. But no matter what, they have lived well until now, and they are finally disease-free.

But what about this mother?

Sending away two close relatives, but not being able to enter the door of a beloved's house. This kind of lonely and miserable appearance makes Azhu occasionally think about it, and he will feel that his mother is really pitiful. So what kind of hatred could there be?

When they were heading upstream in parallel, they saw two large fishing boats suddenly speeding up and rushing forward. From the clothes of those people on the boat, ordinary people can know it at a glance. It was the dress of a man in the official family.

Zhao Xiaoxi, who was curious, said to the boatman with a frightened look on his face: "Uncle, the people on these two boats look like people from the public gate. When did the yamen also go down to the lake to fish? ”

The boatman said hatefully to Zhao Xiaoxi's inquiry: "They are here to fish." It's almost as if they came to beat people. These people, every time they run rampant in the fishing market, they don't say anything, but they also do some things to bully men and women.

Looking at the appearance of these yacha on the ship, I am afraid that it is the dog's leg of the county order again, and he is going to harm someone. Fortunately, we were far away from them, otherwise we would have been in front of them, and we would have been knocked into a boat and capsized.

These people really do all kinds of evil, and the court doesn't know how. I will appoint such an official as a prefectural magistrate. Let such an official be the county order, where it is the shepherd and the guardian side, it is completely the scourge party! ”

While speaking, Zhao Xiaoxi said again: "Oh, listen to the uncle, your county commander is an official who does all kinds of evil?" Then no one went up there to sue him? Could it be that the officials above can't cure him either? ”

Upon hearing this, the boatman suddenly laughed and said, "Little brother, look at your appearance. I guess I just came out to walk the rivers and lakes! Haven't you heard that there is a saying in these years that 'the government and the yamen are open.' If you have no money, don't come in'.

These officials all say good things, and they want to be the masters of the blue sky. But in the final analysis, how many real Bao Qingtian does our Da Song have? We are all ordinary fishermen, who work hard all day just to get enough food and clothing, so what do we have the money to go to court? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoxi saw that Zhao Yu was about to speak with hatred. Immediately glared at her. I'm afraid that this little sister will say something that reveals her identity, so she won't be scared by the boatman.

Continue to follow the boatman's words: "Yes! Those who have been in power in these years have said that they sit in office for thousands of miles only for money. It's just that they are so rampant in the township that they are not afraid that the officials above will know? ”

The boatman may have heard Cho Hyo-seok finally say something clear. also sighed slightly: "The little brother also said, that is a big official, such a big official, how can we ordinary people see it."

And I heard that the younger sister of this Wang County Order is the concubine of the criminal officer of Xinyang Prefecture. It is precisely because of the people above that this Wang Tianba dares to be so arrogant and not take the people of this county seriously. The people don't talk about fish and meat, and they often rob people's daughters.

As far as he is concerned, there are no less than twenty concubines in the knowledge of those of us. We, the people, also often say that this king really thinks that he is the emperor of the soil, and he has married as many wives as the emperor. People who are almost fifty are ashamed! ”

Twenty wives! This county order is really old and strong! Through continuous inquiry, the two fishing boats saw the official boats leaving, so they slightly accelerated their speed and went to the parade, for fear of colliding with the two official boats!

Just after the two ships were sailing for a while, Zhao Xiaoxi and others soon saw that the two official ships stopped at the dock. Directly around a woman said something, because the distance was too far Zhao Xiaoxi and the others couldn't hear clearly, and asked the boatman to move forward a little closer.

It's just that the boatman refused to move on, and it wasn't until Zhao Xiaoxi handed over two pieces of broken silver that the two boatmen pushed the boat closer again. Soon, I saw that several yacha with knives were surrounding a woman with a charming voice and a beautiful face.

Even though it was closer, the words that could be heard were mostly intermittent. But the man who was shaking a folding fan said 'Ruan Niangzi', which was heard by Zhao Xiaoxi and Qiao Feng.

After glancing at each other, Zhao Xiaoxi asked Duan Yu to look at these girls, and the two nodded and walked directly. Coming to the riverbank, this sudden appearance made these yacha's faces tense.

Immediately, a yacha stepped forward and said: "Yamen is on an errand, you should retreat as soon as possible!" ”

Looking at it up close, Cho Hyo-seok can quickly confirm the identity of this woman, ignoring the angry glare of this official. He asked the woman, "Xiaosheng Zhao Yun, Xiao Feng, dare to ask Mrs. Duan?" ”

Ruan Xingzhu, who was about to jump into the lake and was about to jump into the lake and slip away by this group of officials, immediately said nervously when he heard this: "Who are you?" How did you find this place, did he send you to find me? And what about himself? ”

Before Zhao Xiaoxi could answer, the master who was shaking the folding fan immediately said, "Are you all wood?" If you miss the county master's business, you are all waiting to be beaten! These two people, at first glance, are not good, and they don't take it yet! ”

Looking at these yacha and immediately drew his knife, Qiao Feng said very calmly: "Brother Yun, you come or I come!" ”

Zhao Xiaoxi smiled bitterly at this: "Let the eldest brother laugh, it's better for such scum or the younger brother to make a move." Isn't it lifting them up by letting you do it yourself? ”

As he spoke, Zhao Xiaoxi stepped forward suddenly, and directly vomited blood and fell to the ground with two yacha who didn't say a word. Passing the long knife in the hand of a yacha, he directly counterattacked the frightened yacha.

As soon as the master saw that the person was so fierce, he immediately ran to the big boat in a panic, and shouted in horror: "Come on, someone has killed an official and rebelled, and he will not be captured and killed quickly!" ”

Faced with this situation, Qiao Feng looked at the people on the boat, ready to shoot arrows with a bow. Jumping directly into the bow of the ship, those archers were frightened, and shouted: "I see which of you dares to do it!" ”

After saying that, in the stunned state of these archers, he jumped down directly and pinched the master's neck. Suddenly, the master who had shouted and shouted to kill immediately said: "Heroes spare their lives, heroes spare their lives!" ”

When Qiao Feng ordered him to order the yacha on the ship to put down his weapons, Zhao Xiaoxi had already beaten all those yacha and vomited blood and fell to the ground. Even if they still have the strength to get up, they would rather lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.

Ignoring these errands who were acting for the tiger, Zhao Xiaoxi came to the woman and said, "Since Mrs. Duan recognizes herself, then Mrs. must be Ruan Xingzhu." I don't know if what Xiaosheng said is right? ”

When Ruan Xingzhu heard this, he suddenly said vigilantly: "Who are you?" You weren't sent by him? And how do you know that I live here? What exactly do you want to do? ”

Looking at Ruan Xingzhu's nervous mood, Zhao Xiaoxi immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Madame, we are not bad people. We are from Dali, as for what we are looking for Mrs. to do, please wait for a while. ”

As he spoke, he shouted to the lake, 'Second brother, you all hurry up!' ’

A moment later, the two boats finally docked on the shore in horror of the boatman. Looking at the men and five women who got off the boat, Ruan Xingzhu didn't understand who these people were.

It's just that what puzzled her was that one of the girls looked at her nervously and didn't know what to say. I only know that tears keep pouring out. What the hell are these people looking for her?

At this moment, Duan Yu stepped forward and said, "Duan Yu, the son of the King of Dali Zhennan, was ordered by his father to take Aunt Ruan back to Dali. And on behalf of my father's mistakes over the years, I said sorry to Aunt Ruan, who has suffered all these years. ”

The yacha who fell to the ground and the master also heard Duan Yu's words, and their faces immediately became tangled. The woman that their county lord wanted to rob turned out to be the woman of the prince of Dali. This is really Tai Sui's head breaking ground!

Even if Dali is a vassal state, the wife of a prince is not something that a county order can touch. Thinking about this truth, the master immediately gave the soft-footed shrimp that had lost its tendons and collapsed in front of Qiao Feng, who looked disgusted.

looked at Duan Yu, who made a big salute, and listened to what he had been wanting to hear all these years. Ruan Xingzhu didn't know what to say for a while. At this moment, Ah Zhu finally couldn't help crying and said, "Mother, I'm Zhu'er!" ”

Mother! This 'mother' directly called Ruan Xingzhu stupid, and said with tears in her eyes: "Girl, what did you call me just now?" ”

Afraid that he would not hear the wrong words, Ruan Xingzhu asked cautiously again. When Ah Zhu put the gold lock plate tightly in his hand, raised his hand and handed it to Ruan Xingzhu, he cried and shouted again: "Mother, I'm Zhu'er!" ”

Holding the gold lock plate with trembling hands, looking at the unforgettable poems on it, Ruan Xingzhu didn't know how to speak. directly hugged Azhu into his arms, and couldn't hold back crying loudly anymore. The crowd who watched this meeting was also full of emotion! (To be continued......)
