Chapter Seventy-Four: Children

"Yuan Gongzi, please, Guo Li is grieving in the house, and where the etiquette is not careful, I hope Gongzi will not blame him!" Guo Yuanwai bowed down and gave a salute and let Yuan Mai into the courtyard.

Yuan bought into the yard and swept around. The He family's family is not bad, there are four brick tile houses for living, in addition to three adobe houses stacked with sundries, there are cattle and sheep and other livestock in the yard, the courtyard is clean, and it can be seen that the housewife is a diligent person.

But the discord is that the body of a young man in his twenties is now lying across the courtyard, blood splattered all over the patio, has solidified and dried up, and the man is dead.

There was only an old man sitting helplessly next to the corpse and guarding, and a big yellow dog squatting in front of the door, wagging his tail, and there was a sad look in his eyes.

"It's really a tragedy in the world, there is no way to buy and lead soldiers, please forgive me!"

Yuan Mai bowed to the corpse again, and said loudly: "Outsiders and fellow villagers, please rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation today, killing people to pay for your lives, and paying debts and money is justified." ”

"Childe, please be the master of the slave family, my husband died so unjustly!"

Hearing that an official had entered the house, He Lishi, who was carried by a neighbor to lie on the kang, suddenly struggled to sit up, broke free from the obstruction of several women, and staggered out, disheveled, and knelt in front of Yuan Mai, crying bitterly and begging.

"Mother, don't cry...... When I grow up, kill that dog official and avenge my father! ”

Before Yuan Mai could take a look at He Li's appearance, he was attracted by a childish voice. When his eyes swept away, he saw a little boy who looked to be about six or seven years old, with a tiger's head and a tiger's brain, thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding on to the door to comfort his mother.

"This kid is ambitious, and it's surprising that a little child can say such a proud word!"

Yuan Mai couldn't help but look at the child a few more times, only to see that although the child was small, his eyes were not ignorant, and his pupils were full of unyielding and stubbornness.

This made Yuan Mai like it more and more, and secretly praised in his heart: "This son may become a big thing in the future!" ”

"Ping'er, there are big officials here, don't talk nonsense, you have to ask the son to be your mother's master!" A woman came out of the house to pull the child into the house.

"I don't, I don't, I don't need anyone to be my mother's decision, I will be my mother's decision when I grow up!" The child stubbornly grabbed the threshold and refused to let the woman drag him into the house.

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, childlike words, let the child be here, presumably this son also wants to see his father a few more times!" Yuan Maiwan smiled, reassuring the woman that she didn't have to be nervous, she admired this child very much!

However, a large number of people in the courtyard watched him handle the case, and Yuan Mai was not allowed to have the leisure to think about it. Bent down to help He Li's and said softly: "He Li's please, the weather is still cold, and wearing such a thin dress is not good for your health to kneel on the ground." Your husband is in trouble, please mourn and be careful, protect your body, and raise your children. Under Yuan Mai, he is the son of today's Jizhou Mu, surnamed Yuan Xianyong, the official residence 'General Fenwu', is the supervisor of the army, and I am also responsible for Yuan Mai, please accept my wife's worship! ”

As Yuan Mai spoke, he bent down and made a deep bow to He Li, who was kneeling on the ground, and bowed to the ground in his robe.

In this era of fire, human life is as cheap as mustard, how can we say that dignity comes from? In the hearts of the people, there is no concept of killing people to pay for their lives and repaying debts in the legal era of later generations. Wars, plagues, famines, robbers and other factors of death come knocking on the door at any time, and the hearts of the people have become numb, although they are not willing to die, but they can only accept their fate when they encounter it!

is how the Li family is like this, her husband died tragically, and she was insulted, but she was only sad and sad, and she couldn't think of any way to avenge her husband. It was only when I heard from others that there were big officials who wanted to take care of this matter, so I moved the idea of crying out for injustice.

Yuan Mai is a noble son, the reputation of the Yuan family is like Zhongtian, and Yuan Shao, who is the overlord of the north, is now the emperor on the land of Bingzhou, as the son of the "emperor", he actually bent down and saluted to his own people's women.

Therefore, Yuan Mai's worship was not small for He Li's and the onlookers, He Li's hurriedly got up, and grabbed Yuan Mai with He Yuanwai, "Son, don't do it!" ”

Yuan Mai raised his head, and then saw clearly the appearance of He Li's family, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, fair skin, and indeed quite beautiful, although coarse clothes and rough clothes, but also could not hide the mature charm, if he married a dignitary, he might be able to dress up as a glamorous lady.

There is a saying that "Seong knows whether it is a blessing if he loses his horse, and Seong knows whether it is a disaster if he loses his horse", and it is indeed true! This man on the earth, as an ordinary person, married such a beautiful wife, which can be regarded as a blessing from the ancestors. But because of his wife's beauty, he was killed, isn't it the best interpretation of the phrase "Seong knows whether it is a disaster or not"?

Shameful life, ancient times are like this, let you pull out the mountains and cover the world, as powerful as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, what can you do? Aren't you watching your beloved Yu Ji kill herself with a horizontal sword? Even if I am a human being, I can't prevent this woman's ** being humiliated and her husband from dying, but I can get justice for you!

"He Li, who is your surname, what is your husband's name, and why did he attract death? Let's go into details, I'm going to be in charge with you! Yuan Mai straightened his spine and said loudly.

The woman cried: "The slave's surname is Li Mingjing, and her husband is He Mu." Today, my husband went to the fields to plough the fields, and I and the children were at home, and suddenly broke into a few officials to ask for water to drink, and the slave family scooped water for them to drink...... The slave family is a good person, so naturally he did not obey, and the slave family was forcibly knocked down, and with the help of several soldiers, he took off the slave family's clothes, and forcibly defiled me...... Woohoo......"

Yuan Mai carried his hands behind his back, and his heart was full of anger, it seemed that the people under him did it. A thief is really a thief, and he still doesn't change his heart when he becomes a soldier, so I don't want to clean you up this time, let you know how powerful the fourth master is, what kind of hegemony will you talk about in the future?

"The officer had finished defiling the slave family, and was going to call his wicked servants to spoil the slave family, and at this moment, the slave husband's husband returned, and when he saw this scene, he argued with the official, and was killed with a sword, and went away...... Woo, my husband's death was so unjust, so miserable! Childe is in charge! After Li finished speaking, he cried again and fell to the ground.

"Do you remember which officer looked like?" Yuan Mai suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.

"The officer has a thin face, a few pockmarks on his left cheek, and I heard his wicked men call him Captain Sun......" Li cried.

"Where are Fan Hu and Fan Bao?"

Yuan Mai couldn't hold back his anger, turned around and shouted.

"Little Listen!"

The Fan brothers are also from poor families, and after hearing what happened to the He family at this moment, they are already angry and want to break their steel teeth. I can't wait to eat the flesh of this Sun Mazi raw and drink his blood!

"The two of you immediately lead three hundred guards to the location of the Zhenggu Department, and arrest this Sun Mazi and his evil pawns, as well as Zhenggu, if anyone dares to resist, kill them on the spot, there must be no mistake!" Yuan Mai shook his cloak and shouted loudly.

"No!"

The Fan brothers agreed, strode out of the courtyard gate, and led the three hundred guards straight to the place where the Zhenggu troops stopped.

"He Li, you get up, come with me with all the villagers, and I will show you the rules of the Yuan family army today! Those who oppress the people and do misdeeds will be killed! ”

Yuan Mai picked up the Li family, beckoned the peasant women in the house to come out and support the Li family, and followed him to the outside of the village, and when Sun Mazi and the others were arrested, he would give them an explanation!;
