At this time, the county government can be said to have become Pang Xiude's nightmare, and in the face of the thunderous Chu Xuewen, he didn't know how to explain himself.

"Pang Xiude, this is what you did?" Chu Xuewen knocked it with the startling wood as a brick.

"Your Excellency, this is pure accident, accident!" In the face of this young boss, Pang Xiude didn't dare to let go of a fart. This is the iron law of officialdom, and officials crush people to death at the first level.

In fact, Chu Xuewen felt that he was the most wronged, just to return King Ning's favor, he had just taken office, and he offended the godson of the Marquis of Yumen. Originally, if the case was decided, it was okay, and no one had anything to say. But now the case has not been decided, and people have been offended. After getting the most outrageous, the chicken flies and the eggs are beaten, and the two heads are not pleased. This makes him not angry!

"Tell me, what are you going to do with this!" After taking a sip of herbal tea to calm down, Chu Xuewen regained his composure.

As soon as he heard this, Pang Xiude suddenly remembered his three thousand taels of silver, which was thirty percent of his belongings! It's so cheap, Li Mingyuan's little bastard, he doesn't accept it!

"My lord, please rest assured, over there at the hot pot restaurant, the lower officials have already been appeased!" Pang Xiude said respectfully.

"Huh? Did you really appease that Li Mingyuan? Chu Xuewen said in disbelief. He has learned Li Mingyuan's methods, and he is definitely not a master who is easy to get along with.

"How dare the lower officials deceive the adults!" When he said this, Pang Xiude was already dripping blood in distress.

After seeing that Pang Xiude was not lying, Chu Xuewen also breathed a sigh of relief. He's also not a trouble-loving person. Since Pang Xiude was able to take care of Li Mingyuan's side, it would make him too lazy to bother anymore.

"What are you going to do with those three plaintiffs? I've put them in jail! Chu Xuewen said with a headache.

"It's bad for these guys. Please also hand over these people to the subordinate officials to deal with! Pang Xiude bent down and said respectfully.

"Okay, you can do it, but I warn you, this official doesn't want to have rumors about today's incident in the county in the future, understand?" Chu Xuewen stared at Pang Xiude and said coldly.

"Please rest assured, what should I do!" Pang Xiude bowed his head very simply

Cangsong County, Pang Xiude's mansion, there was a muffled bang, accompanied by a scream that was trying to suppress it. The next moment. A crisp cracking sound came from Pang Xiude's study.

Liu Wen, the man lying in the coffin and pretending to be dead, covered his head with his hands, and the skin on his forehead that emerged from his fingers was dark and blue. As soon as he let go, he could see that a large lump had just grown on his forehead. Under his feet. It is a stone fragment of a place. The stone fragments only look at the warmth of the sè bruising. And the sleek phoenix eye on one of the fragments. It can be seen that the predecessor of this stone fragment must be a rare high-grade inkstone. Now that he is crushed on the ground, it is a pity to look at it.

Someone smashed his head with an inkstone. For an old Jianghu like Liu Wen, it is really faceless, but in front of Pang Xiude, he doesn't even dare to cry out in pain. Only press the sore spot, and stand honestly. But the blow on his head was heavy enough, and although there was no blood, Venus was shining in front of him, and his head was buzzing, like a thousand shining flies circling around him.

The one who took the inkstone worth a thousand gold and threw it at Liu Wen's head, looking at Liu Wen's painful appearance that he couldn't stand steadily, Pang Xiude approached the very concerned Hush Han and asked warmly: "Liu Wen, does it hurt?" ”

As soon as Pang Xiude said it in his ear, Liu Wen trembled, hurriedly put down his hand, and stood solemnly with his head down. Just looking at the way he bared his teeth, it must have hurt a lot.

In addition to Liu Wen, Zhao Kang, Gao Dahai and others also stood aside obediently. Waiting to be reprimanded by Pang Xiude.

After smashing a valuable inkstone, Pang Xiude's anger subsided slightly, and he didn't care about being distressed, he said again, "Say, how to deal with this matter!" ”

Zhao Kang, who had been silent, stood up and proposed, "My lord, the background of this hot pot restaurant is too strong, we can't cure him, in my opinion, let's lower our heads and be soft!" "Zhao Kang is also a figure with a face in the county, after all, there are still relatively few people who know autopsy techniques in these years, most of them are passed down from generation to generation, so Zhao Kang can also be regarded as a technical talent, and he still has some status in the county government.

Gao Dahai on the side also nodded again and again, "That's right, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge." Now that the opponent is sharp, I think we should have less touches! ”

For a while, except for Pang Xiude who had a stinky face in the study, the rest of the people suggested reconciliation with him, but this made Pang Xiude even more upset. Because in a sense, he and Li Mingyuan have been temporarily reconciled. Moreover, as the losing party, he also signed an unequal treaty and had to pay 3,000 taels of silver.

"Alright, alright, shut up! I shouldn't have expected you to come up with ideas, bunch of shit! Pang Xiude, who was noisy by several people, waved his hand and said weakly.

After returning to his seat and sitting down, Pang Xiude began to think about how to resolve the current deadlock. He lost today's contest completely. Although he had promised to compensate Li Mingyuan with 3,000 taels, he believed that this was far from enough. If silver can solve the problem, it is not a problem. On the county side, Chu County ordered him to have an explanation, and on the hot pot restaurant side, in order to prevent Yuxin's mother-in-law from pursuing it, he also had to find a way to block these leisurely mouths, these are all problems.

"This time we planted it!" Pang Xiude seemed to be talking to himself.

"Nowadays, on the ground in Liangzhou, there are people with heads and faces, and we have offended a lot. King Liang, Marquis of Yumen, Tiger Benjun, these are not things we can deal with. With the touch of their fingers, they can easily crush us, and we will never be able to live forever! ”

Pang Xiude's words made Zhao Kang and the other five people shudder. They are just the lowest level of ordinary people, and it is okay to fight hard, but if they really fight with those high-ranking officials and magnates, they will not even have a chance to fight back.

"My lord, what do you think we should do now?" Zhao Kang said with a shocked face.

"You ask me, who do I ask? Now we can't hide, we can't fight, and we're in a very dangerous situation! Pang Xiude said with a headache.

"Are you just waiting to die?" Gao Dahai said with some eyes.

After Pang Xiude looked at Liu Wen deeply, he took a deep breath and said, "If you want to solve this problem, there are still ways, but!" Pang Xiude paused slightly, finally shook his head, let out a long sigh, and said to Liu Wen: "Brother Liu...... You go back first. ”

Liu Wen was stunned, how could he not understand what Pang Xiude's intention was to let him go back first. He exclaimed, "...... My lord! ”

Not only Liu Wen panicked, but Gao Dahai and the others, who had done him all the way, were also in a hurry, but Zhao Kang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, walked to Liu Wen's side seriously, held his shoulder, and said softly: "Brother Liu, you go back and rest first, today is enough for you to be tired." ”

Liu Wen's face was as white as lime powder, glowing with iron blue.

"You said lightly, go back, where are you going? We are in this together, and we want to go back together! "Liu Qi is the one who has the best relationship with Liu Wen among the four. He guessed that Pang Xiude wanted to use Liu Wen as a substitute for the dead ghost, so he jumped out to oppose it at the moment.

"Brother Liu Qi, you have to understand the hardships of adults!" Zhao Kang was on the sidelines to be humane.

"Hmph, I don't care. You were the ones who asked us to do this job. It's also you who pat your chests to make sure it's easy! It's good now, the work was not done, and I put my brother's shoulder in, and now I want to use my brother as a scapegoat, I tell you, I Liu Qi will not agree! In the study, Liu Qi's voice was loud.

Pang Xiude, who has always been used to being arrogant, was slapped by someone who was so faceless, and he had the heart to kill. But now is not the time for him to be ruthless, so he has to suppress his anger and say, "Liu Qi, you have to make trouble, and this official is also suffering from doing this!" ”

Gao Dahai on the side also stopped Liu Qi, "Old Seven, shut up and listen to what the huge man has to say!" ”

"That's it, since Liu Qi is against it, this official has nothing to say!" Pang Xiude snorted coldly and said unpleasantly.

The tall man on the side also glanced at Ma Liu, the two of them nodded understandingly, and while Liu Qi was not paying attention, Ma Liu knocked him on the back of the head, Liu Qi didn't snort, and fell to the ground softly.

"Old Seven!" Liu Wen on the side was also excited when he saw Liu Qi falling.

"It's okay, it's just that I fainted, and I'll wake up naturally later!" Gao Dahai said calmly.

At this time, Liu Wen also knew that he was in a catastrophe, and looked at Pang Xiude in despair, and then looked at Gao Dahai, Liu Wen fell to the ground with a plop, grabbed Pang Xiude's boots, and cried: "My lord, for the sake of my best for you, leave me a way to live!" ”

"Liu Wen, what are you doing, you are Gao Dahai's brother, that is, the brother of this official, how can you not be left alive?!" Pang Xiude said expressionlessly, took a step back, and motioned to the other two cronies standing at the door with his eyes: "Don't help Brother Liu Wen out of the house!" ”

The two nodded knowingly, this was to let them keep an eye on Huang Liuwen in case he did something in despair. They covered Liu Wen's mouth with one hand, lifted him up from both sides, and forced Liu Wen, who was constantly struggling, out of the study.

"Dahai, you go to catch up with Liu Wen later, tell him that this official will ensure that his wife and children are safe and stable for a lifetime, let him go with confidence!" Pang Xiude rarely restrained the disguised smile on his face, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.

Gao Dahai nodded, signaling that he had heard. Pang Xiude turned around and looked straight in the direction of the hot pot restaurant through the half-open window. No one saw his expression, and it was only after a long time that he heard the three words that burst out of his teeth: "Li Mingyuan!" ”

In the distance, in the Four Seasons hot pot restaurant, Li Mingyuan, who was having an in-depth communication with Yuxin, suddenly sneezed. "Damn, someone must be thinking about Lao Tzu!" Li Mingyuan muttered unhappily. (To be continued......)
