Chapter 8 Invite to Fun
The hearts of the officials who are concerned with the people's livelihood are so painful that the people gathered outside the door don't know why the people who are talking about the troublemakers have not been beaten out, and a car is pushed out first.
Seeing that the car was full of wine jars and meat, the people were very happy: "Is Mrs. Wu worried that we are too tired to watch the excitement and want to give us food and drink?" ”
The crowd was surging, ready to wait for an order, and rejoiced in front of the yamen.
"Don't move, it's my thing."
A voice came from inside the yamen, and then someone came out, and the lights of the yamen and the street were bright, pouring out on this person.
There was instant silence in the room.
The young man in the brocade robe was handsome, a sword decorated with gems at his waist shone brightly, reflecting the dazzling colored glass of his angular features, and a blooming flower in his sideburns softened his face.
This beauty is .....
"Xiang Ling! How did you get out of here, a thief? Someone shouted.
Xiang Qiu's originally cold face changed suddenly, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at the person who shouted: "Don't call me Xiang Ling, I'm Xiang Qiu." The hand was withdrawn and stroked the flower on the sideburns, with a proud expression, "And I am not a thief, Mrs. Wu has invited me to be a guest, and these are the gifts she gave me." ”
He pointed to the car in front of the door and raised the golden sword in both hands.
The quiet crowd became noisy again, and this man was the thief who had been escorted in!
The deeds of the thieves have been spread by the bitter masters of the military camp who came with them.
The thief was not driven out of Dou County, but became a guest of Mrs. Wu Shao? And gave so many treasures.
"Why?" Countless people asked.
Xiang Qi was arrogant: "Of course, it's because I have a strong kung fu skill. ”
Isn't it because of the face? Quite a few people have flashed this thought.
"You're a liar." The fellow barracks who had dealt with him and knew him shouted angrily, "You must have coaxed Young Lady Wu." ”
Xiang Qiu now flew up to the branches, and he was no longer angry when he was accused by these birds, and laughed: "I was in the hall at the right time, fighting with the messenger guards, and seeing that I was extraordinary, Mrs. Wu gave the hero a treasure sword on the spot and asked me to be her guard." ”
Is that so? Everyone's eyes looked at the officers who followed them, and the officers didn't look good, but they didn't refute Xiang Qiu's words.
The messengers of the cart threw the cart down: "It's sent out of the yamen, please take it." ”
Mrs. Wu only said that she would send it out, but she didn't say that it would be sent home.
Xiang Qiu didn't talk about the defeat of his subordinates, put the treasure knife back on his waist and looked at everyone: "Whoever helps me push the cart, I will give him a jar of wine and invite him to eat meat together." ”
Although not as generous as Mrs. Wu Shao, but eating and drinking for nothing is always not disgusted, a group of people rushed forward, there were too many people, the car was not pushed but was carried up, and walked along the street towards the bearded man in the crowd of people, and the laughter resounded through half the street.
Many people in front of the yamen dispersed.
Wu Ya'er pulled down her hat: "You can start." ”
Lao Han, who had been in a hurry to leave, did not move, and Wu Ya'er turned his head and saw him staring at him.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome." Lao Han stretched out his hand and pinched Wu Ya'er's hat, and looked at the face covered by the dust and dust of his beard, "You are much more handsome than this kid, go in and play a set of kung fu, won't you see the young lady?" ”
Wu Ya'er flicked his hand away: "Get out." ”
The front side of the county office is brightly lit, and the back house is a little dim, and two alleys pass by it.
"When she's not in the back office, it's not necessarily when the precautions are not strict." Wu Ya'er said in a low voice, lowering her hat three steps and two steps into the dim alley.
Old Han didn't follow closely behind, and went in the other direction, his rough body was not as clumsy as the mountain stone in the dimness, and he disappeared in a flexible flash.
Li Minglou passed through the front office and the back house, Fang Er, who was following closely behind, raised his hand to signal, and the figure in the dim courtyard swayed and retreated.
"This Xiang Ling's skills are indeed good." Motoyoshi said.
"Is it called Xiang Ling?" Li Minglou said with a smile.
Yuan Ji has already gotten Xiang Qiu's information, which shows that he came with a few fellow villagers, and when he logged in, he reported that his name was Xiang Qiu, but the fellow who was separated from the registration in another place said that his name was Xiang Ling.
More than three registration clerks were set up in the place of inspection, and the government did not hesitate to let the government manage food and drink and pay high wages to recruit a lot of idlers who could write, not only that there were many people from Dou County, but also that Mrs. Wu was kind and sympathetic to everyone's hard work, in order to have enough manpower to log in information.
Anyone who comes in a group will register separately and ask for information separately, with the aim of recording not only what you say about you, but also what others say about you.
"Xiang Ling was raised by his father, and Xiang Qi was raised by himself." Yuan Ji said, "His father didn't give birth, took him to make friends everywhere with nothing to do, got drunk and fell into the lake and drowned, leaving him alone, in his hometown righteous heroes caused a lot of lawsuits and couldn't stay, and there was a drought in the local area, so he followed a few villagers out to find a livelihood, all the way to Dou County." ”
Li Minglou walked slowly down the dim corridor, with a smile in his voice: "Are they staying in every place for a short time?" ”
Yuan Ji nodded in response, and asked again: "Xiang Ling, is the young lady going to buy horse bones with a thousand gold?" ”
Although the name of Mrs. Wu Shao spread, people in Dou County still rushed to the military camp, or looked for a livelihood supported by the prestige of the government, and they had not come to Li Minglou yet.
Tonight's move to the beard will inevitably make many people have new ideas.
After all, not everyone is suitable to be a strong people.
Li Minglou crossed the threshold, and Kumquat took her cloak.
"It would be nice if it could." She replied to Yuan Ji's question, because it involves how Yuan Ji will deal with this matter next, people are always scarce, and she is willing to ask for a steady stream of more people to defect, "It's just that this matter is also very interesting to Xiang Qiu's beard." ”
Interesting?
Yuan Ji was about to follow across the threshold, but Fang Er suddenly appeared again: "When the young lady went to the front, there were several people here who approached and wanted to come in, and they had already taken down two live mouths, and one of them escaped and could only be shot." ”
"It's not surprising, An Dezhong will definitely investigate us carefully." Li Minglou turned around in the room, not caring about it, "Let him see, let him see, he shouldn't let him see, he can't see it, Zhexi is far away, he doesn't dare to be too distracted by us now, drag him just that." ”
Yuan Ji and Fang Er responded yes.
Li Minglou continued to say to Xiang Qiu: "He really wants to be a ranger, not for fame and fortune, but for the sake of being a ranger, it's interesting to be able to live like this, and it's also interesting for me to get him out of depression and live an interesting life." ”
Xiang Qiu didn't care how Yuan Ji lived, he smiled slightly, and the young lady was happy.
"Moreover, Xiang Qiu's beard looks weird, and he should be a good person." Li Minglou continued, "This is all because he is not stable, but those villagers have always followed him, which shows that they trust him very much." ”
Miss is really happy, like a child seeing a new toy, Yuanji's face is a little softer, Miss is still a child.
"yes." He nodded, "When he was arrested in the barracks, his fellow villagers didn't speak for him, but they all ran to offer to say that if Xiang Beard was driven away, they wanted to go with him." ”
Li Minglou smiled, and then looked at the wall: "Where has Mingyu gone now?" ”
Motoyoshi reached out and pulled open the covered painting, revealing the picture behind it, and Kumquat lit the two lamps in front of him and stepped back.
The room brightened up and showed human figures.
Wu Ya'er hung upside down on the eaves, there seemed to be a lot of people, and there seemed to be a lot of female voices.
"Madam, let's go burn some chestnuts and eat them."
"Okay."
There are crisp female voices asking happily, and there are gentle female voices answering, and the footsteps penetrate the heavy brocade curtain.
Wu Ya'er's hair stood on end.
At the moment when his body tensed, he instinctively shook his head, and with a clang, a fire splashed on the eaves tiles.
There was a female voice exclaiming, and the curtain to be lifted also fell, and the room was instantly silent.
In the dim night, there was a strong wind in all directions, and Wu Ya'er slashed over the roof, and at the same time, there was a rapid sound of feet stepping on the roof on the other side, mixed with the sharp whistling of hidden weapons.
Yuan Ji blocked Li Minglou behind him, Li Minglou took the woman's hand, and Kumquat squeezed in front of them.
Miss needs more guards, and there are more and more people who are harming Miss, Kumquat pricked up his ears and held his breath to listen to the movement outside.
