On a June night, the moonlight is bright.

In Xiangyang City, on the streets, the people who come and go are already sparse.

Wheels!

A horse-drawn carriage, speeding along the empty street, stopped outside the gate of the Xiangyang County Ya.

The curtain of the carriage door was rolled up, and a servant came down first and stood respectfully aside.

Then, a gorgeously dressed young man, wearing a virtuous crown, with a sword eyebrow and a majestic appearance, stepped down from the carriage. The little servant hurriedly reached into the carriage again, took out a sandalwood box one foot long and half a foot high, and followed the young man to the gate of the county government.

"Bang!

There was a knock on the door, one after another.

After a short time, the concierge of the county government opened the door and poked his head out to look at the person knocking on the door.

The young man smiled and said: "In Xia Huangxiao, a native of Yicheng in Nanjun, he is a student of Ma Yin. If you have something to ask for the prefectural order, please pass it on your behalf. ”

As soon as he heard that it was Ma Yin's student, the porter cheered up and didn't dare to slack off.

The matter of Ma Yin has already been spread all over the county government, from the small officials of the county lieutenant to the concierge of the government, all know that Pang Tong killed Ma Yin.

The county magistrate even issued repeated orders, strictly prohibiting the people below from accepting bribes, which also showed that before Pang Tong was arraigned, no one from the Pang family was seen, and no one related to the Pang family was seen.

Now there is a friend of Ma Yin, and the porter hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, the little one will go and report immediately." ”

Huang Xiao nodded and waited quietly.

After a short time, the door opened again, and the porter poked his head out and said with a smile: "Childe, my lord will see you in the living room in the backyard, come with me." ”

Huang Xiao bowed slightly, took out a string of five baht coins, and handed it to the porter.

At this moment, the porter smiled.

The porter's eyes rolled, and he said, "Don't hide it from the son, as long as the Pang family comes now, the adults will not be seen." Especially the adult has been pondering the matter of the horse print, it may be a little angry, and after the son sees the adult, try to be careful. ”

Huang Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you!"

A group of three people soon came to the living room in the backyard.

After Ma Yuan saw the visitor, he secretly praised him, he was a handsome young man, and at the same time he was examining Huang Xiao.

Facing Ma Yuan, Huang Xiao was neither humble nor arrogant: "Yicheng Huang Xiao Huang Xue Village, I have seen adults. ”

"Sit!"

When Ma Yuan heard that Huang Xiao was from Yicheng, a smile appeared on his face.

Ma Yuan came from the Ma family in Yicheng, although he was an official in Xiangyang County, his roots were in Yicheng, and he had a natural good impression of Yicheng people.

Huang Xiao sat down and arched his hand: "Thank you, my lord." ”

Ma Yuan asked, "Snow Village came to visit late at night, is there something important?"

Huang Xiao replied: "I heard that Ma Yin came to Xiangyang to study, but was beaten to death by the bully Pang Tong. After knowing this, I also have a relationship in the next place. Because when he came to Xiangyang in the early days, he was also troubled by Pang Tong. ”

"Oh, are you too?"

Hearing that Huang Xiao had a similar experience, a smile appeared on Ma Yuan's face.

In this way, Pang Tong's crime was confirmed.

Huang Xiao said solemnly: "Pang Tong is unforgiving, he thinks he is a member of the Pang family, arrogant and domineering, this is a well-known thing. Now that Pang Tong has been arrested, the students in Yicheng all applauded. ”

Ma Yuan laughed loudly, with a hint of smugness on his face.

Huang Xiaodao: "It's a pity that Ma Yin can't survive, it's a pity." ”

When Ma Yuan heard this, his mood was also extremely heavy.

Huang Xiao continued: "My lord, arresting Pang Tong does not mean that Pang Tong can be ruled guilty. I came down to visit for this purpose. ”

Ma Yuan's eyes narrowed and asked, "What do you mean by Snow Village?"

Huang Xiaodao: "Could it be that the county magistrate doesn't know the Pang family's energy in Xiangyang?"

In Ma Yuan's eyes, a fierce color flashed.

As Huang Xiao said, if the Pang family really made a move, it would indeed not be easy for Ma Yuan to kill Pang Tong. Ma Yuan was just a county order, and he couldn't compete with the Pang family.

Ma Yuan suddenly laughed and said, "Since Snow Village is here, I guess there must be a complete plan. ”

Huang Xiao waved his hand, and the little guy behind him hurriedly put the wooden box on Ma Yuan's desk.

Ma Yuan asked, "What does this mean?"

Huang Xiao waved his hand and said: "The county order can be seen at a glance!"

Ma Yuan opened the wooden box, and in an instant, a burst of jewels shone brightly. In the box, there are pieces of jewelry and jade, each of which is exquisite.

This box of jewelry is absolutely priceless.

At this moment, Ma Yuan's heart was pounding.

Too much money!

So much money, too expensive.

Ma Yuan hurriedly closed the wooden box and asked, "What is your intention?"

From the word Huang Xiao to the word 'Your Excellency', in Ma Yuan's eyes, Huang Xiao's weight is constantly increasing.

Huang Xiao said: "Pang Tong killed Ma Yin, he doesn't occupy reason, he doesn't occupy righteousness, and when it comes to the law, Pang Tong will definitely die." However, once Pang Degong went to Liu Jingzhou in person, as long as Liu Jingzhou gave an order, Pang Tong would be punished at most, and he could not be convicted. ”

Therefore, this possibility must be eliminated at an early stage. ”

"With the prestige of the county order, as well as the power of the Ma family in Xiangyang, it is not comparable to the Pang family. ”

"If you want to take down Pang Tong, you can only use external forces. ”

Huang Xiao's eyes were sharp, and he said solemnly: "This external force is the Cai family." Liu Jingzhou dotes on Cai's family, and everyone knows it. The adults only need to let the Cai family blow the wind in front of Liu Jingzhou, and everything will be in order. ”

"The jewels and jade in the box were given to the Cai family by the adults. ”

"As for Cai, I expected to agree. ”

"First, the Cai family is a woman who loves money and jewelry, and second, the Cai family in Xiangyang, the Pang family, the Huang family, if the Pang family can be weakened, why not the Cai family?"

Huang Xiao said in a sharp tone: "Pang Degong can't see Liu Jingzhou, or if Liu Jingzhou refuses, Pang Tong will have no chance." ”

Ma Yuan said: "At such a big price, the grievances between you and Pang Tong are not simple. ”

"Your Excellency is wrong!"

Huang Xiao shook his head and said: "When I came down to Xiangyang, I was just verbally humiliated by Pang Tong, and the grievances were not big. Moreover, the jewelry and jade in the box were not made up by the next person, but by other Yicheng students who came to Xiangyang to study. It's just that I've been entrusted to meet with adults. ”

After Ma Yuan heard this, the vigilance on his face immediately relaxed.

When it comes to the battle between the students of Xiangyang and Yicheng, Ma Yuan also recognized Huang Xiao's statement.

Ma Yuan nodded and said: "The official has accepted the jewelry and jade, and tomorrow, the official will find someone to give it to Mrs. Zhou Mu." ”

Having said that, Ma Yuan thought in his heart that as long as a small part was intercepted and converted into money, it would be countless money. A box of jewelry and jade, no one can see what is missing.

Huang Xiao arched his hand and said: "Everything is up to the adults, I just hope that this matter can be completed before the arraignment of Pang Tong, and after avoiding the arraignment, Pang Degong found Liu Jingzhou first, which led to Pang Tong being at large." ”

Ma Yuan smiled slightly and said, "You can rest assured of this." ”

Huang Xiao said: "It's late at night, adults should rest early and say goodbye." ”

"Slow down and don't send it!"

Ma Yuan nodded and watched Huang Xiao leave.

After Huang Xiao left the county magistrate's office, he got into the carriage with his entourage, and quickly disappeared into the night
