Xu Yin was woken up halfway through his sleep.

"What time is it?" She asked, rubbing her forehead.

Xiao Man, who was dozing off by the bed, woke up suddenly, went out to take a look, and replied, "Miss, it's almost noon." ”

Xu Yin calculated in his heart, and slept for almost three hours, barely enough.

"Then get up."

"Oh."

There was a lot of noise outside, and when he found Xu Yin going downstairs, Wei Jun immediately ran over: "Third Miss, why don't you sleep for a while?" ”

Xu Yin's face was expressionless: "Noisy like this, do you think I can still fall asleep?" ”

Wei Jun laughed wryly.

He had dark circles on his face, and he must have not slept long in the morning before getting up to deal with things.

For the sake of him being so diligent, Xu Yin's tone softened: "What's the matter?" ”

The inn door was closed, and there was a heavy knock from time to time, accompanied by the shouts of "open the door".

"It's from the county government." Wei Junman didn't care, "He said that he was going to bring the bandits back for interrogation." ”

Xu Yin let out an "oh" and asked him, "Have you identified yourself?" ”

Wei Jun nodded: "They are determined to take the prisoners away." ”

Xu Yin smiled: "There is guts." ”

Knowing that hundreds of bandits were slaughtered by them on one side, they dared to come over to fight for merit - or to put an end to it, it was really bold.

While the two were talking, Yan Ling and Xu Ze came down together.

There were no extra rooms left in the inn, and the two of them slept together.

"Third sister!" Xu Ze called out, turned his head and asked, "What happened?" ”

"The eldest son." Wei Jun gave a salute and said the matter, "...... That's it. ”

Xu Ze was furious: "It's really unreasonable! There are bandits and bandits in the county, it's not that they are incompetent, so they come to the door to ask for people, when we are? ”

Xu Yin agreed, twisting his eyebrows and looking very angry: "Big brother is right." We were invited to be guests, and when we encountered bandits in their jurisdiction, even the king of Dongjiang had to apologize, and a county order was still playing tricks in front of us! ”

Seeing her approval, Xu Ze was very happy and continued: "That is, we didn't blame them, and we dared to come to the door to spread wild, it's really rude!" ”

"That's right!" Xu Yin raised his head, his expression brought out the arrogance of the past, "When are we?" Let them bully the down-and-out family? If you don't teach them a lesson, you won't know whether you live or die! ”

Xu Ze's emotions were stirred, and he was filled with righteous indignation: "It's time to teach them a lesson, otherwise we Nanyuan are soft persimmons that can be kneaded by others, and even the eldest sister is looked down upon!" ”

Xu Yin really didn't expect this reason, since Xu Ze thought about it first, she echoed the situation: "Isn't it?" My sister is a distinguished guest personally invited by the king of Dongjiang, not only was the road robbed by robbers in the middle of the road, but also let a county order call to drink, and when she arrives in Jiangdu, she will definitely be talked about, and I don't know how those people will be arranged! ”

When Xu Ze heard this, the anger immediately came up. As the only male of the Xu family's generation, with three younger sisters below, he naturally has a strong sense of responsibility. I heard that my sister would be made fun of, so I didn't hesitate to express my attitude: "Third sister, how do you teach them?" ”

Xu Yin smiled and motioned for him to come over.

……

Outside the inn, the local county magistrate sat under a tree, fanning the wind while listening to the official call the door.

"This general, it is the duty of our county government to suppress bandits, we have been investigating this Qingfeng Village for a long time, and we also ask the general to give a convenience and hand over the prisoners."

"You worked hard last night, and you must have been very tired from escorting the young master all the way. I heard that the robbers suffered hundreds of casualties, and it is very troublesome to deal with so many corpses, so it is better to hand them over to the lower officials! ”

"General, it's already embarrassing to ask you to be tired and kill bandits, if you have to trouble you even to clean up the mess, the prince will learn about it, and he will punish the lower officials heavily."

The voices were endless, both soft and hard, but the door of the inn was always closed firmly, and there was not even a reply.

The county lieutenant wiped his sweat and came back to report: "My lord, they don't care at all, what should we do?" ”

The county order was already impetuous, and it was clear that the weather was cold, but his forehead was sweating layer by layer.

He replied angrily, "What else can I do?" If you don't come out, keep calling the door! ”

The county lieutenant looked embarrassed and persuaded tactfully: "Adult, small one, to put it mildly, these people are not easy to deal with." There were quite a few bandits who came last night, but you see, hundreds of them were almost all killed. If you really want to do it, you will rely on these people under us, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist it. ”

The county order disagreed: "Do it? You can rest assured, they don't dare! Miss Xu wants to be the princess of the world, and the Xu family is too late to please our prince, how can she do it to us? ”

This sounds reasonable at first glance, but the county lieutenant always feels that something is wrong. If the Xu family really wants to please the prince, why did they shout for so long, but they just didn't open the door?

Seeing him procrastinating, the county magistrate was unhappy and said, "Why don't you understand?" Miss Xu was invited to the banquet, but encountered bandits in our county, if this matter is in front of the prince, in order to appease the Xu family, we will definitely be questioned. But if we take over this case, we will be able to turn against the customer and put the blame on them. ”

The county lieutenant suddenly realized: "So that's the case!" ”

The county commander glared at him: "If you know, don't hurry up and work!" "Slowly, what should I do if things mess up?

The county lieutenant should have returned to the door of the inn, and was just about to continue to knock on the door, when suddenly the door opened. He almost fell in, but he caught the errand in time to gain a foothold.

The door opened, and this time it was not the morning guard standing in the middle, but a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a dignified appearance and a cold expression.

His gaze swept over, fell on the county lieutenant, and asked coldly, "You are the chief official of this place?" ”

Seeing this, the county commander hurriedly got up and came over, and said: "The next official is the local county order, dare to ask but Xu Gongzi?" ”

Xu Ze nodded and said, "Since you are, then let me ask you, what is the matter with the door?" ”

The county commander replied with a smile: "Young Master Xu, I heard that you met bandits last night, and the county was very shocked, so I specially brought someone over to help." ”

However, Xu Ze sneered: "Is it to help, or to destroy the evidence?" ”

The county commander was stunned for a moment, and doubts appeared on his face: "What does Xu Gongzi mean by this?" ”

Xu Ze glanced behind him, and threw a bunch of weapons in front of the county commander.

Xu Ze squinted at him, knocked on the folding fan with his hand, and said, "Bandits? Where would the bandits line up and have such refined weapons? ”

Receiving his eyes, the county commander was taken aback, and his face gradually turned pale: "Young Master Xu, what do you mean ......?"

Xu Ze snorted and said, "Since Your Excellency is here, my son just asked the King of Dongjiang for his uncle." What does it mean that the prince invited his sister to the banquet, but connived at others to pretend to be robbers and kill? Are you going to declare war on me Nanyuan?! ”
