At noon, the county government of Panlong County.

In the flower hall, Wuxin and Mei Niang sat in the hall drinking tea, and Yu Zhutou bowed down and said: "After the strict interrogation of the lowly officials in the past few days, according to the clues of their confessions, the lowly officials have sent capable forces to arrest them, and at present, more than ten criminals hiding in other counties have been arrested."

Mei Niang was dissatisfied: "Why are there only a dozen?"

Yu Zhutou was startled, and hurriedly said, "My lord, please listen to the explanation of the humble position."

Mei Niang was dissatisfied: "There are only a few people, what is there to explain?"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said: "My lord, as far as I know, eight or nine out of ten of the prisoners who were previously imprisoned in the prison were arrested from other counties and temporarily imprisoned in Panlong County, and there are only more than ten local household registrations."

Mei Niang was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said: "The lowly position means that those prisoners from other places must have fled from Panlong County a long time ago, and the lowly duty is under the jurisdiction of Panlong County, and they must be arrested...... That was beyond the reach of the whip, and the locals, who have now been tortured by me, have been arrested except for one who is a fugitive."

Mei Niang was surprised: "In that case, you have made a great contribution."

Yu Zhutou smiled and said, "Don't dare, it's all your good leadership."

Wuxin said: "Yu Zhutou is right, according to the news sent back by the eldest brother, they have also caught a lot of them, plus these caught by Yu Zhutou, I think there are very few fish that have slipped through the net."

Mei Niang nodded and said, "Well, you're right, but, in addition to this, we have a very important task at the moment."

Wuxin wondered, "You mean the prisoners?"

Mei Niang nodded and said, "Yes, the eldest brother said that it was a man and two women who robbed the prison, and the national teacher strictly ordered that they must be arrested and returned to Beijing, and we can't delay it any longer."

Yu Catcher hurriedly said: "I will do my best to investigate and strive to arrest the robbers as soon as possible."

Mei Niang approvingly: "Yes, it's really clever enough, Yu Catcher, as long as you catch them, it will be a great achievement, and when the time comes, the official will help you speak well in front of the national teacher, *** Houlu, at your fingertips."

Yu Zhutou was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Xie."

At noon, in front of the county yamen of Panlong County.

The four officials stood on duty in front of the yamen, yawning boredly, looking a little sleepy.

Suddenly, I saw a faint voice coming from the street in the distance: "The government is unscrupulous, and the good people have been wronged......

The officials were almost startled, looked at each other, and hurriedly looked into the street, but after a while, they saw a large group of people coming out of the corner, holding hands in a row, shouting slogans, "The government is unscrupulous, and good people have been wronged...... Release the innocent people and return me to the bachelor......" strode towards this side, shocked.

An official came back to his senses and said urgently, "You keep watch, and I will go in and tell you." Hurriedly turned around and ran inside.

Tianbao, Aixue, and Meiren led everyone to the yamen, surrounded the door, waved their arms and shouted, "The government is unscrupulous, and good people have been wronged...... Release the innocent people and return my bachelor's ......" sonic roof tiles.

The three officials were shocked, hurriedly drew their knives out of their sheaths, and blocked the yamen, their faces grim, and cold sweat broke out.

At noon, Panlong County Yahou Hall.

In the flower hall, Mei Niang, Wuxin, and Yu Zhutou are still talking about something.

Mei Niang asked Yu Zhutou, "What are you worried about?"

Yu Zhutou said cautiously: "Lord Hui, these robbers can actually rescue so many prisoners in a well-guarded prison, I am afraid that they are very rare masters, and the soldiers and officials of our government are just ordinary people, in case they collide, I am afraid that there is no way to take them, and it will be difficult to arrest them......

Mei Niang smiled: "The official still thinks that you are worried about something, but it turns out that you are worried about this, you don't have to worry about this, you just need to find out who they are and where they are, and notify us, I don't care what kind of person they are, and they can't escape from my mountain."

Yu Zhutou was startled, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Excellency is wise."

At this time, he could hear the noise outside, and Yu Zhutou was surprised, "What's going on? So noisy?"

Mei Niang was dissatisfied: "You go and see what's going on outside, the noise makes me upset."

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said, "It's my lord." I wanted to turn around and look, but I saw the official running away

（M.. COM）

came in and said in a panic, "My lord, it's not good, it's not good."

Yu Zhutou wondered, "What's wrong?"

The official hurriedly said, "My lord, there are a lot of students from Panlong Academy gathered outside, as well as the people, you want to ......."

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said, "What do you want?"

The official hurriedly said, "You want us to release the innocent people, as well as the academy's Master Zhang."

Wuxin wondered, "Master Zhang? Who?"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said: "Lord Hui, he is a bachelor of Panlong Academy, and he was arrested and imprisoned yesterday on suspicion of harboring fugitives, and because he is still being interrogated, he has not yet had time to report to you, my lord."

Mei Niang nodded and said, "Did you ask anything?"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said: "Because he is a bachelor of the academy, he has a meritorious reputation, and he is also quite influential in Panlong Town, we don't dare to use the punishment, and we haven't asked anything, but according to the report below, I said that I saw a little girl hiding in his carriage at that time, very similar to the one who escaped, but the strange thing is that when he was arrested, he couldn't find it."

Mei Niang nodded and said, "If you say so, then you are suspicious, and this person must not be released."

Yu Zhutou was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "It's an adult, an adult, it's better to go out and have a look, I think these students must be impulsive, I'll persuade them, it should be fine."

Mei Niang waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, but remember, this Master Zhang must not be released."

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said, "It's my lord." He turned to the official and said, "Let's go." He walked out with the official in a hurry.

Yu Zhutou scolded as he walked: "These nerds, they don't read books, but they come here to make trouble, they really eat the gall of the leopard, you go and call all the people and horses in the yamen."

The official was stunned for a moment, and said carefully: "My lord, you forgot, you sent them out of the city early this morning, and now there are not a few people left in the yamen and the city, and the remaining few are at the gate."

Yu Zhutou suddenly realized: "How did I forget this matter, it's bad, how many people are coming?"

The official hurriedly said, "There are a lot, and the whole street of the Yamen is occupied."

Yu Zhutou was surprised, "So many? Go, come with me." Hurry out with the officer.

At noon, at the entrance of the county government of Panlong County.

Seven or eight officials in front of the door guarded the entrance of the yamen, all of them with solemn expressions, as if they were facing a great enemy, Aixue shouted loudly: "Call you adults out, we want to see you adults."

Lux also said, "Yes, let you adults come out."

The crowd echoed and shouted, "Come out, come out......"

The officials looked very grim, their steps trembled, and they were huddled at the door, not saying a word, and did not dare to act rashly.

Guo Shimei and his gang stood from the back and watched from the wall, Guo Shimei said disdainfully: "Let you be arrogant, and the officers and soldiers will know that they look good when they come out."

At this time, he saw the sound of footsteps in the yamen, Du Cong was startled, and hurriedly said, "The officers and soldiers are out, they are out."

Guo Shimei said proudly: "Well, there is a good show to watch."

Everyone looked at the entrance of the yamen, only to see Yu Zhutou with two officials coming out separately, and everyone was shocked when they saw people coming out.

To Chung wondered, "Hey, why are there only three?" There was a wave of confusion.

Ai Xue saw Yu Zhutou come out, and said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you? What about you, adults?"

Yu Zhutou looked at everyone, and hurriedly smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient, there are so many of you gathered here? What are you trying to do?"

Ai Xue scolded, "What are you doing? You knowingly ask, we are not looking for you, we are looking for you, tell him to come out, if he doesn't come out, we will rush in."

The crowd chimed in, "Yes, yes, if we don't come out, we're going to rush in."

"yes, rush in, rush in......

Yu Zhutou was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm really sorry, my predecessor is Lord Linghu

After being dismissed due to an incident, the imperial court has not yet appointed a new county order, so it is temporarily under the responsibility of Zaixia."

Ai Xue wondered, "Are you responsible? What can you do, a little head catcher? Call out the two great officials from the capital, and we will see them."

The crowd hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, yes, see them......

（M.. COM）

"Call them out......

Yu Zhutou was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, calm down, the two adults from the capital, they are indeed in the county government, but if they come out to see everyone, I am afraid it will be inconvenient, I don't think you have any requirements, just tell me, I will convey it to the adults on behalf of everyone, and everyone will say that this is good?"

Everyone was shocked, and Lux was puzzled, "You convey, can you do it?" Will they listen to you?"

Yu Zhutou said: "Students, please rest assured, I will help you convey it word for word, if there is anything you are not satisfied with, it will not be too late to invite them to come out and meet with you?"

Ai Xue hesitated, "Tianbao, what should I do?"

Tianbao looked at the few officials around, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said softly: "I see that there are only these few officers and soldiers around, which is a little wrong......

The beauty nodded and said, "But I think he seems to be quite sincere, this time we are here to fight, not to break through, it is better to listen to him."

Ai Xue thought for a moment and said, "Well, that's good." Then he turned around and said, "Okay, then you can help us pass the word to those two adults, and if they don't agree to our request, we will rush in."

Everyone hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, yes, rush in."

"Rush in......"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said, "Yes, this classmate, if you have any requests, I will tell you for you."

Aixue said, "Okay, then you hear clearly, we have three requirements."

Yu Zhutou was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Yes, please say ......."

Ai Xue pondered, "These three requests, the first one is that you want to release Master Zhang."

The crowd hurriedly echoed and shouted, "Let the bachelor go, let the bachelor go......

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said, "Yes, what about the second one?"

Aixue said: "The second one is...... You will release the innocent people you have taken these days."

The crowd shouted, "Free the innocent people, free the innocent people......

Yu Zhuan was startled, and hurriedly said, "What about the third one?"

Aixue muttered, "This third one is to ensure that you will never arrest people indiscriminately from now on."

Yu Zhutou hesitated and said, "Okay, then students, please wait a while, go in and report to the adults in the next place, and I will reply to you in a while." As he spoke, he turned around and went in.

Lux watched Yu Zhutou go in, and said worriedly, "Tianbao, do you say that the lord can agree to our request?"

Tianbao pondered, "I don't think the chance is very big."

"If that doesn't work, we should try to get them to free some of the innocent people."

Ai Xue hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, we can't come in vain."

In the Yamen Flower Hall, Mei Niang, Wuxin and Yu Zhutou discussed something.

Mei Niang said angrily: "Bold, they ate the leopard's gall? How dare you speak to the government in a commanding tone."

Yu Zhutou was startled, and hurriedly said, "Yes, the adults are angry, the adults are angry."

Unintentionally looked in his eyes, and wondered, "Why are you so flustered?"

Yu Zhutou hesitated, and hurriedly said: "Don't hide it, if it is in normal times, such a demonstration, the lowly position can still deal with it, but unfortunately, early this morning, the lowly official sent all the officials and soldiers in the yamen to carry out the search and arrest mission outside the city, and now there are less than ...... left in the yamen Ten people."

Mei Niang was startled, and said unintentionally, "Are you worried that they will break in?"

Yu Zhutou hurriedly said: "Yes, my lord, those scholars are all brainless, they have gathered so many people, and they keep saying that they want to rush in, they want to make a noise, break into the yamen, and disturb the adults, that despicable duty is really true

Sin deserves death."

Wuxin nodded and said, "Everyone is angry, there are only a few people, and it is difficult for you, so in your opinion, what is the best way?"

Yu Zhutou thought for a while and said: "Method, there is no good way to do it at the moment, I can only drag them down, and wait for the officials who went out to come back, and when the time comes, I will copy them inside, and I am not afraid that they will not retreat."

Mei Niang said happily, "Okay, this method is good, and when the time comes, I will arrest them all."

Wuxin thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "This method doesn't work."

Yu Zhutou was surprised, "No?"
