Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and then saw that one of Guo Shouguang's eyes had become a panda eye, which was obviously caused by being beaten.

Hu Xiaotian walked back to the dining table like no one else, pretending to be seven points drunk: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people, my lords, if you believe him, go over and stand on his side, if you believe me, stand on my side." "This guy is clearly asking everyone to stand in line.

Although most people are looking towards Guo Shouguang in their hearts, but now that Guo Shouguang is stinky, naturally no one wants to come to him.

Hu Xiaotian said: "I'll just say, the eyes of the masses are bright, I want to deal with a small master bookkeeper, why use such violent means, Guo Shouguang, you accuse me of innocence, this matter must not stop there, take out human and material evidence, as long as it can be proved that I beat you, I Hu Xiaotian is willing to be punished." He bowed his hand to Xu Qinglian and said, "Please let Master Xu know." ”

The muscles on Xu Qinglian's thin cheeks trembled twice in succession, judging from the scene, it must be Guo Shouguang who suffered, emotionally he and Guo Shouguang were of course very close, but this turmoil was not expected by him at all, Hu Xiaotian actually shot and beat someone, this guy is really too rampant, but there is no evidence, if you want to say that this Guo Shouguang is also cheap, he pees, what are you going to do? You also brought on yourself to be beaten. On an occasion like tonight, it is not suitable to be investigated in public, Xu Qinglian coughed dryly and said: "Hurry up and send Lord Guo back to change clothes, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

After this turmoil, everyone's interest was naturally greatly affected, although Guo Shouguang's beating was unconfirmed, it caused a psychological shadow to everyone after all. Next, no one dared to take the initiative to toast Hu Xiaotian, and they all saw it. This guy is a black-hearted and black-handed master, and if he offends him, there is no good fruit to eat.

No one is looking for Hu Xiaotian to drink, this guy actually took the initiative to attack against the guest, except for Xu Qinglian, all of them are his subordinates, this thing is a shallow taste when drinking with people, but others have to drink dry, Xu Qinglian saw Hu Xiaotian's high spirits, and his heart was like overturning the five-flavor bottle. It was extremely complicated, and it didn't take long to take the initiative to end this banquet.

Hu Xiaotian was a little unsatisfied, and finally took the initiative to hold a glass to Xu Qinglian: "Lord Xu, I toast you." ”

Xu Qinglian said: "Everything has a degree, and it is not good to drink too much." "He's talking like that now.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Lord Xu is old, take care of your body, you take a sip." I did it! He cocked his neck and drank the glass of wine clean.

Xu Qinglian looked at Hu Xiaotian with a sneer and said: "Although I am old, I can't even drink a glass of wine, Lord Hu is very kind, how can I bear to refuse." He also drank the glass of wine, reached out and patted Hu Xiaotian on the shoulder and said, "Xiaotian, you wait before leaving." ”

Hu Xiaotian heard him call so kindly. I guess there must be no good thing for this old guy, and I don't know what idea to come up with to toss himself.

Everyone left one after another, and in addition to the miscellaneous servants who were responsible for cleaning up in the garden, there were only Xu Qinglian and Hu Xiaotian.

Xu Qinglian said: "Xiaotian, how is the inspection situation today?" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Qingyun Bridge is broken. The passage of the people was blocked. ”

"This Qingyun Bridge is related to the travel of the people in the city, and it must be repaired as much as possible."

Although Hu Xiaotian showed some abnormalities, he did not sue Xu for being honest. He thought that Xu Qingqing, as a magistrate, should know more than him, nodded and said, "I think so too." ”

Xu Qinglian said: "I am ready to leave the matter of repairing the Qingyun Bridge to you." ”

Hu Xiaotian immediately raised the most important question: "How much money do you plan to allocate to me?" ”

Xu Qinglian sighed and said: "Xiaotian, you have also seen that our treasury is empty, and we don't even have the money to repair the county government, so do we still have the money to repair the Qingyun Bridge?" ”

"It's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and without funds, I can't afford to build this Qingyun Bridge."

Xu Qinglian said with a smile: "Xiaotian, although we haven't known each other for a long time, but I can see that you are a very capable person, I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to others, but I can rest assured that I will hand it over to you, I will help you come up with an idea, you can move the people of Qingyun County to pledge, so many households in Qingyun County, as long as one household pays five taels of silver, this Qingyun Bridge has also been repaired." ”

Hu Xiaotian scolded in his heart, Xu Qinglian, Xu Qinglian, you are cheating me, there is no more rancid idea than this. If I go door-to-door to ask for silver, won't I offend all the people in Qingyun County? Within a few days of being an official, he had already fallen into infamy, and he simply set a trap for me to drill. Hu Xiaotian said: "My lord, in the past two years, Qingyun has been plagued by natural disasters, and the people have difficulty in escalating, even the landlord's family has no surplus grain, and the people may not be able to take out five taels of silver per household." ”

Xu Qinglian said: "If you think about it, you must come up with a way, I have confidence in you." After saying this, he patted Hu Xiaotian on the shoulder again, got up and went back to his mansion to rest.

The matter of repairing the Qingyun Bridge is not a difficult task for Hu Xiaotian, after all, there is Wan Boping behind him, as long as he puts a little pressure on this old guy, Wan Boping will definitely willingly take out this money. It's just that Hu Xiaotian is not so obedient, Xu Qinglian designed to embarrass himself, how can he obey him?

Hu Xiaotian didn't leave immediately, he went to the prison room and asked the officials to bring Zhou Batian to the torture room.

Zhou Batian was obviously a little impatient when he was interrogated late at night, and when he saw that it was the new county magistrate again, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "Lord County Cheng, it's so late, why don't you go to rest, and come to me again?" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "I lost the news outside in the past two days, are you a little worried in my heart?" ”

Zhou Batian looked at Hu Xiaotian coldly and said, "What do you mean, adult?" ”

Hu Xiaotian took out the telescope snatched from Jia Liu's hand from his arms, slowly put it on the table, and said with a smile: "You know this thing, right?" ”

Zhou Batian narrowed his eyes and looked at the telescope: "I don't know, I haven't seen it." ”

"You've always heard the name of the Tiger Head Battalion, right?"

Zhou Batian suddenly got up and rushed over like an angry lion, grabbed Hu Xiaotian's shirt with both hands, and his tiger eyes widened as if he wanted to tear him apart.

Hu Xiaotian was not frightened by his momentum at all, his expression was as unwavering as Gujing, and his eyes looked at Zhou Batian quietly and said, "If you want to talk, sit down!" If you don't want to talk about it, just do it for me, but before you do, think about your brothers out there. ”

Zhou Batian was stunned for a while, but he actually gave in under Hu Xiaotian's gaze, sat down slowly, and said in a low voice: "What do you want?" ”

Hu Xiaotian tidied up his clothes and said softly: "I should ask you this sentence, why are you hiding in Qingyun Prison?" You can get out of here and fly away. ”

Zhou Batian put a pair of big hands on the table, his thick eyebrows were twisted together, and he thought for a while before he said: "I was ordered to go to Tianluo Mountain to suppress bandits, but I didn't expect to be framed, and I was ambushed on the way, and my brothers suffered heavy casualties, and there were two hundred people, and only a dozen escaped in the end." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Are you worried about being dealt with by military law? ”

Zhou Batian shook his head and said: "I'm not afraid of death, but I can't die like this, I have to find out who is behind me." ”

"So you stayed in Qingyun."

Zhou Batian said: "The people who hurt me think I'm dead, I want to come and go, only this is the safest place." ”

Hu Xiaotian nodded, the more dangerous the place, the safer the place, many times this is true, the person who framed Zhou Batian should not have thought that he would honestly squat in Qingyun Prison.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Why don't you go to Xizhou and explain this matter to Lord Li in person." “

The muscles on Zhou Batian's face twitched, obviously asking about his sore spots.

Hu Xiaotian said: "I saw the Qingyun Bridge broken today, along the Tongji River up, and there are traces of damming in the upper reaches of the Tongji River, only to know that the Qingyun Bridge is not broken by a flash flood, but someone deliberately damaged it." ”

Zhou Batian said: "Qingyun Bridge is the shortest way to the east here, after the damage, usually the caravan will choose to go all the way to the south and pass to the Guò Yongji Bridge in Honggu County. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Is it the horse bandits?" They want to rob caravans on the way? ”

Zhou Batian said: "Since the bridge was broken, there has never been a robbery on this road. ”

Hu Xiaotian frowned and said in a low voice, "Isn't the time coming?" ”

Zhou Batian looked at the young man in front of him with admiration, his mind was extremely smart, and he quickly grasped the key to the matter from his few words, Zhou Batian said: "I don't know, I just know that this Qingyun Bridge is broken, and there will be a big event in a few days." ”

Hu Xiaotian fell silent.

Zhou Batian said: "You have just taken office, if there is a shocking case within the scope of Qingyun County, I am afraid that you will not be able to keep the black yarn on your head." ”

Hu Xiaotian heard that Zhou Batian was attacking himself, and said with a faint smile: "It's a big deal that I will go back and continue to be my people, what is there to be afraid of." ”

Zhou Batian laughed and said: "Then it depends on what kind of case, if the case is serious, it's not just that you can't keep your official position, I'm afraid that even your head will fall to the ground!" ”

Hu Xiaotian's heart sank, he knew that Zhou Batian was not alarmist, there was no shortage of such precedents in the history of Dakang, he said in a low voice: "You are hiding here just for this matter?" ”

Zhou Batian said: "I will kill Yan Kui!" His fists were clenched, the knotted muscles of his arms were well-defined, and his demeanor was as fierce as that of a god. Yan Kui was the leader of the horse bandits in Heavenly Wolf Mountain, and it was this person's ambush that caused Zhou Batian to lose more than 100 brothers.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Killing Yan Kui and exterminating the horse bandits in Heavenly Wolf Mountain must be a great achievement." ”

Zhou Batian leaned forward: "I don't want credit, I want Yan Kui's life, if you want, all the credit will be yours." After several mutual temptations, Zhou Batian finally took the initiative to propose cooperation to Hu Xiaotian.

The third more is sent, ask for a monthly pass, double the last day and a half left, everyone points the ticket warehouse, and don't keep the monthly pass!
