The affairs officer and his entourage snatched Wang Fuzi out of the backyard of the prefect's yamen, and they came on the street to attract the attention of the surrounding people.

After all, it is really a relatively new thing for them to rush out of the prefect's yamen with weapons in hand.

In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, generally speaking, no one dared to do this.

"Why, your wife and children have also been arrested?"

Master Wang's words made the clerk who was supporting him pause, and then the expression on his face became solemn.

If it is really as Wang Fuzi said, then things will not be easy to do.

It's still okay for a prince to be saved, but it's hard to say about his family.

And they snatched away Wang Fuzi, then those people will definitely vent their anger on Wang Fuzi's family, and it is even very likely that Wang Fuzi's family will die.

"Where's the cell?"

The clerk hurriedly asked.

"We don't have enough manpower, the cell is on the side of the yamen, but there are more than 30 officials over there, and there are more than a dozen soldiers." , Wang Fuzi is very excited now, but fortunately, he forced himself to stay calm, and he was able to quickly analyze some problems, so as not to let his brain faint.

When Master Wang saw these people dressed in the costumes of the Song Empire, he knew that this must be His Highness coming from Nagasaki.

After all, Wang Fuzi knew Zhao Hongyu's intentions.

And if you want to save his family, it is not enough to rely on these people now.

Only when His Royal Highness nods his head and agrees, can his family have a glimmer of life.

The crown prince of a country opened his mouth, how can his family save his life.

Wang Fuzi thought to himself.

At this time, Wang Fuzi just thought that Zhao Hongyu could come forward to solve this problem.

He never thought of using force to force the Yangzhou prefect to release him.

It was something he couldn't even think of.

Because even if the crown prince is tough, the military is very strong.

But you can't always have those troops with you, can you?

What's more, this is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, not a small and dilapidated country like the Wa Kingdom.

Want. When the crown prince arrives in Yangzhou, there will definitely not be many guards around him.

Once there is a real armed conflict, Wang Fuzi is really not optimistic about the outcome.

Therefore, it would be best if we could solve this problem in the form of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

It's just that what Master Wang doesn't know is that the official who has been supporting him thinks about how to use force to rescue his family.

If Wang Fuzi knew the thoughts of the affairs officer, he would definitely be scared to death.

"I've already asked someone to inform His Highness, so you can rest assured now. But you're right, it's impossible for us to save your family. If we do, we'll all have to get stuck in it. ”

The clerk supported Mr. Wang and trotted all the way down the street.

At this time, the prefect's yamen was also noisy and chaotic, and many officials armed with sticks, knives and guns rushed out.

Well, needless to say, it must have been the prefect's yamen who reacted and began to send people out to chase them.

"That's not a solution, we can't run away."

The clerks supported a prince who was temporarily incapacitated. So the speed of running is not fast.

If you continue to run like this, you will inevitably be caught up by the people behind you.

At that point, you can become very passive.

After all, there are few of them, and they will definitely not be able to do the officials who are chasing after them.

Besides. They weren't masters like Hattori Chizuru, otherwise they wouldn't be so passive.

As it happened, they passed by a tavern, which did not have many customers. I don't know if the business of the tavern is not good. Or something, it looks empty inside.

However, the layout of this tavern is not bad, if you hide in it. I can still hold on to the officials who are chasing after me for a while.

Thinking of this, the clerk made up his mind.

"Everybody come with me!"

After the clerk had made a decision, he immediately greeted his companions, and then ran into the tavern with Wang Fuzi in his arms.

Immediately afterward, they drove the owner of the tavern and the men out of the city.

The tables, chairs and benches in the tavern were quickly stacked at the door, setting up a simple barrier.

With the obstacle of this suggestion, it is enough to resist for a while.

As long as His Highness on the other side of Caoyun Wharf gets the news, then he will definitely send troops to come.

If there is any problem, let's talk about it then.

"Capture the pirates! Get out of the way! ”

When the barriers were set up, there were bursts of shouts outside.

By this time the officials had caught up and surrounded the tavern.

However, the officials did not attack immediately, but only surrounded the tavern.

These people are not stupid, they saw the obstacle at the door, and if they broke in, they would definitely have to pay some price. After all, they were not chasing ordinary people, but Haikou who dared to break into the prefect's yamen.

Yes, until now, they still think that the affairs officials who robbed the prince are also the same as the princes.

But when you think about it, you can't blame them for thinking so.

After all, if someone like Wang Fuzi was not a Haikou like him, then who would risk saving him?

Come to think of it, there are only those who are pirates with him.

And the affairs officer's approach misled the prefect and the master's thoughts.

In their opinion, the identity of Master Wang is definitely not low among the Haikou. Otherwise, there would be no one of his accomplices who would have ventured to save him.

At least, you have to be a leader, otherwise how could there be such a group of people under your command who are willing to work hard.

It can be seen that this guy Wang Fuzi has never told the truth, and he must still have a lot of wealth in his hands.

Hum!

How could a pirate leader only have more than 1,000 taels of silver?

After a short period of panic, both the prefect and the master thought of this question.

And the prefect of Yangzhou, after thinking that Master Wang still had a lot of silver in his hands, his fear suddenly disappeared.

At this moment, in his consciousness, he wanted to catch Master Wang. He was then tortured even more severely to ask him about the whereabouts of his wealth.

I have to say that this prefect of Yangzhou has a very strong desire for wealth.

But think about it, there is a popular saying in the officialdom of this era, 'Thousands of miles of officials are only for money', and in order to seek the position of prefect in Yangzhou, a flowery land, he also called for a lot of silver.

So, after he became an official, how could he not make a lot of money?

Loot the land!

Exploit the local people!

He used all the means he could, but that alone was not enough.

In order to make money, he didn't even let go of the Jiangyang thief.

But anyone who can make money. He's going to have to get involved.

Invisibly, he can be regarded as a bad thing and a good thing, although Yangzhou has given him a disaster, but the public security has increased a lot.

But all those little gangsters and green skins don't dare to cause trouble anymore.

Because everyone knows the Tao, but if it falls into the hands of the prefect, it is definitely worse than death.

Because he's going to drain your possessions and kill you.

Therefore, such a person thinks that the prefect is the lord. When I thought that Master Wang might be a pirate leader with a lot of wealth, how could I let him go.

Originally, he just thought that Wang Fuzi was just an inconsequential little person in the sea, but this time he didn't think so.

Get him!

To live!

This is before the prefect sent the officials to chase him out. A command shouted to the officials.

It was precisely because of the attitude of the prefect that the officials who caught up with him just surrounded the tavern and did not rush in immediately.

Of course, this is only one of the reasons.

More often than not, these officials have taken personal safety into account.

The tavern looked like the pirates to them. Even the prefect's yamen dared to rush in and rob people, thinking that they were all outlaws.

Once such a person is matched, they will dare to scare their hands to death.

It's not the same as the thugs and greenskins they usually deal with.

And these officials are actually just ordinary people. It's okay to let them deal with the gangsters and the green skins, or to bully the ordinary people, but let them deal with those who dare to fight hard, they can't.

Isn't it, the dozens of officials who surrounded the tavern, their expressions were very solemn and nervous, watching the movement of the tavern, once there was any noise in the tavern, they jumped back like rabbits, and the look made people really laugh after seeing it.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on? Didn't you come back to pick up your family? How did it fall into the hands of the government? ”

Seeing that the officials outside the tavern did not dare to step forward, the affairs officer knew that the other party would not dare to launch an attack in a short time, so they still had a little free time.

The four genetic soldiers he brought with him drew their machetes and short-handled firearms at their waists to guard the windows, as well as the gates where the obstacles were stacked.

With just four short-handled firearms, they were able to knock down four people and make the other party stunned.

Therefore, at this time, they are not so nervous.

Besides, everyone knows that if His Highness gets the news, he will definitely send troops to reinforce him.

So, when they have the bottom in their hearts, what do they have to worry about?

Wang Fuzi had met this affairs officer, and they had met several times when they were on Zhao Hongyu's flagship.

But they were all nodding acquaintances, and they weren't very familiar with each other.

Wang Fuzi couldn't have imagined that today, it was this person who was just a nodding friend who dared to rush into the prefect's yamen in Yangzhou to save him.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Fuzi's heart was very grateful.

However, this was not the time to be grateful, and the clerk had already begun to ask questions. (To be continued......)
