Chapter 101: The Trouble of Wine and Rice Rolled Away

The man pointed to the rice jar, speechless in astonishment. The shopkeeper impatiently locked the silver and walked out from behind the counter to look at it.

The rice jar was very large, containing 200 catties of rice, but in fact, there was no business or treachery, and he mixed a lot of stones into it. There is this rice shop in Taming Dragon Town, and if the people don't buy it, they won't have a place to buy rice. And ordinary people don't have the leisure to pick out the sand and gravel little by little.

However, when he looked inside the rice bowl, he was stunned.

The rice was covered with a layer of sand and gravel, neatly and neatly, as if it had been gathered together by some force. There are still some rice left in the bucket next to it, white flowers, and there are no stones at all.

"This..."The shopkeeper's face turned pale, and then his heart tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Hurry up and contact Elder Shi and ask him to come over and see what is going on." ”

"Yes." The man answered, and hurriedly ran out.

Outside the rice shop, Liang Yue watched the guy run out, and said in a low voice: "I'll follow him, you go back first." ”

The emperor casually gave the rice to the beggar lying next to the alley, and frowned: "What am I going to do when I go back?" ”

After that, he took a step ahead of Liang Yue and chased in the direction that the guy ran. Liang Yue was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed, and said urgently: "It's too wasteful for two people to follow." What happens to you..."

"Gu Liangyue." Xuanyuan Zili said with a dark face: "I don't want you to worry yet." Two people are better than one, when will you also mother-in-law and mother-in-law get up. ”

Liang Yue pursed her lips, sighed, and stopped talking. The two followed the rice shop all the way to a house on the south side of the town.

The fellow knocked on the door three times, and a butler's voice came from inside: "Who?" ”

"Yongde Mi shop." The man spoke, and the door opened, and the man dodged in.

Liang Yue raised her eyebrows, noted the location of this mansion, and said to the emperor: "It should be a place for communication, you can come and see it at night." ”

The emperor looked at the door and said lightly: "Your actions in the rice shop today have shocked them, and the precautions in all aspects will be tighter." If they have a lot of power here, it is not impossible to find out who has entered the town today. It's better to act faster, it's no good to be slow. ”

"Hmm." Liang Yue answered, and the two walked back together, and by the way, they informed the two secret guards to pay more attention to the movement of the mansion.

When they returned to the inn, Duguchen and Bu Yao had not returned. Liang Yue and the emperor were about to go upstairs, when they saw Peony hurriedly running down, walked to the emperor's ear and whispered: "Master, Lord Dugu and Lord Bu were taken away by the people of the Yamen. ”

Yamen? Liang Yue's eyes widened, and she looked at Peony and asked strangely, "How could they be captured by the Yamen?" Did you get into trouble? ”

Peony nodded, and said helplessly: "I heard that Lord Dugu was drunk and smashed all the wine in a wine shop." Then the restaurant reported to the official and sent Lord Dugu and Master Bu into the yamen together. ”

Drunk? Xuanyuan Zili laughed in a low voice: "Although Qi Yu is used to being unruly, he is not a person who will hang his son at this time. Aunt Peony doesn't have to worry about him. He should have his own ideas when he did this, so let's just go and see. ”

It happened to be a wine shop, and Duguchen was much bolder than them. Liang Yue smiled, nodded and said, "Let's go to the yamen to have a look, Aunt Peony, you and the stars will continue to guard, don't leave." ”

Peony nodded.

There were many people in the inn, and they all changed into civilian clothes, trying not to be eye-catching. And I haven't been out of the door, so I don't think I'll get into any trouble.

Liang Yue and the emperor rushed to the yamen again. Qing Jue was waiting at the door of the yamen, and when she saw them coming, she greeted them and said, "Master, Bai Yu and they are all inside." ”

Xuanyuan Zili nodded and glanced at the plaque hanging on the yamen: Yamen of Dragon Taming Town. Two steps further, there is a purple wood plaque that reads: Zhengda Guangming.

The town of how to train your dragon is not big, and the yamen is naturally not big, but it is too far away from the county seat, and the yamen is set up for the convenience of management. It is estimated that it will also develop into a county in the future.

Liang Yue walked into the yamen and saw that there were already many people around. There was a head-hunting man sitting in the lobby, frowning and looking down at the hall.

Duguchen didn't look very sober, Bu Yao was supporting him, the two were standing, and next to him was a person who knelt like a shopkeeper.

"Where did you come from, don't you know how to do it?" The catcher next to him roared and glared at the two staggering people.

Bu Yao glanced at the head catcher in the hall and sneered: "I don't even have an official rank, why do I have to kneel?" This is just a place for temporary trial of disputes, and it is not a real yamen. Are we just here to solve the problem, and can we solve it on our knees? ”

"You..." The head catcher on the seat was a little annoyed, his face was red, and he looked at Bu Yao speechless for a long time.

That's right, he does not have an official rank, but is only in charge of this side temporarily. But these two people are arrogant in their behavior and arrogant in their speech, can't he be cured?

Seeing this, the shopkeeper of the restaurant kneeling next to him hurriedly said: "Look, my lord, the villain just asked him to compensate, and this person also has such an arrogant attitude!" The villain is in business, and the store was smashed for no reason, adult, you have to be the villain's master! "

"A business? Bu Yao sneered and said, "If it is really a business, how can the wine taste so light when the vat of wine spills out?" My brother has never been able to drink, so how did he get drunk after drinking three jars of so-called spirits at your place? If you're really in business, of course I'll lose money without saying a word. But you obviously cheating restaurant, why should I pay you money? "

The onlookers were talking. Daoxiang Restaurant has a long history in How to Train Your Dragon, and many people are willing to go to him to drink. However, in recent years, alcohol has often been adulterated, and many people have drunk it, but they have not dared to expose it. Daoxiang Restaurant is said to be very hard in the background...

However, it seems that I have heard that this restaurant has killed people before, and in the end, it was over. Since it was only the poor drunkard who died, no one asked.

"Tell the truth! The wine made by my Daoxiang restaurant is not adulterated, how can it be said that it is a trick? The shopkeeper became excited, and saluted the head catcher again and again: "My lord is clear, you can send someone to the restaurant to check, this is definitely a frame-up!" "

looks so confident, I guess the guy has just been arrested, and the guy behind him has done something? Liang Yue shook her head and asked Qing Jue next to her, "Is there anyone guarding the restaurant?" ”

Qing Jue nodded calmly.

Liang Yue smiled and shouted in the crowd with a suppressed voice: "Won't you know the truth if you go and see?" ”

"That's right." Some people chimed in: "Just go to the restaurant and have a look." ”

The emperor glanced at Liang Yue amusefully and did not speak. Her somewhat eccentric and clever appearance was the first time I saw it, and it was very interesting.

Everyone said to go and see, and the head catcher also agreed, saying, "Escort these two people and go to Daoxiang Restaurant together." ”

It was another lively show, and the people ran to watch it when they had nothing to do. The shopkeeper of the restaurant glanced at Bu Yao, snorted coldly, and went out first. Bu Yao handed the pretending drunk Duguchen to Qing Jue, and then followed them.

"Let's go check it out." The emperor said a word to Liang Yue. Liang Yue nodded, and was about to leave, when the crowd poured out and scattered them.

Xuanyuan Zili frowned, looked at Liang Yue not far away, stretched out his hand to pull her over, protected her in his arms, and then slowly walked out of the yamen. Liang Yue was stunned for a moment, and didn't say anything more.

Daoxiang Restaurant is still in a mess, and the air is full of faint smell of wine. Several of the vasks were shattered, and some of the remnants were still inside.

The guy at the restaurant stood aside, looking at the group of people walking in the distance with some uneasiness. There was an inconspicuous man standing next to them, but it was firmly pressing them so that they could not come forward to clean up.

"Shopkeeper." The man shouted, and stopped talking. The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn't pay attention, waved his hand and said, "You go and get the wine to test, and give me a clean slate." ”

The guy was stunned for a moment, and then said impatiently: "I will go in person to show justice." ”

With that, he walked over to the vat where the wine was still kept, scooped it out, and tasted it.

Everyone looked at him curiously, waiting for what the outcome would be. But the head catcher turned around calmly and said to the people: "If one person speaks unjustly, all of you who will taste the wine will come and taste it, and tell me how the wine is." ”

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and he couldn't understand the look of the head catcher. This wine... Turning his head to look at the guy on the side, the guy shook his head in a panic, and he knew that something was wrong.

Which way did this go? The shopkeeper watched everyone taste the wine, and then frowned. Some say it's mixed with water, while others say it's not pure rice at all. For a while, the people began to accuse the restaurant of adulteration, and the century-old integrity was ruined.

The head catcher looked at the shopkeeper quietly and said: "The merchant is based on trust, and today's confirmation that the shopkeeper must be rectified." Otherwise, this restaurant will not be able to open. ”

Bu Yaoben still appreciated this head catcher a little, frowned when he heard this, and sneered: "What does the head catcher mean, can this restaurant continue to open?" ”

The head catcher turned his head, glanced at Bu Yao, and said: "I don't have the power to order them to close the door, it's just adulterated, the people understand, they won't be fooled in the future, and the shopkeeper should also know to correct it." ”

This is also true, there is no major fault, and naturally the door cannot be closed. Liang Yue sighed, and was about to speak, when she heard an arrogant female voice coming from behind her:

"If you have harmed people's lives, is there still a chance to make amends? The head catcher must be fair, and the certified physical evidence is there, this Daoxiang restaurant is not just closed! ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked. They all looked back, but they saw two people, a man and a woman, holding something, and slowly walked over. The woman was dressed in a strong suit, like a person in the rivers and lakes, and the look on her face was contemptuous. walked straight to the head catcher and said with a smile: "I hope you can read this complaint from a year ago." ”
