Chen Aliang then snorted his teeth, and showed his smile that was more awkward than crying, and said to the young man: "You just said that the leading lake bandit is a one-eyed dragon?" We, the Inspection Division, have never heard of such a bandit here. In this way, you will sleep in our yamen tonight, and in the next few days, we will go to the inspection department to take a look and ask. If you can't find a trace, I'll send an archer to your family. ”

Of course, Zheng Shoukuan heard that the official in front of him was perfunctory, and he became anxious for a while, glaring and arguing: "Master Jun, you have to send someone now, otherwise my aunt will be humiliated!" Great officials, this ingots can buy several stones of rice! ”

"Ouch," Chen Aliang raised his voice and said in an exaggerated tone, "Brothers, this is a doll, this is clearly a county master who pays us!" Only then did he send a small five taels of silver, just like driving a donkey to pull the mill, and in the middle of the night, the third watch drove us out to work hard for his aunt. ”

When the archers were neutral, someone followed the interest of the official and teased the poor young man in front of him: "Master Xiaoxian, even if we rush there now, I'm afraid that your aunt will already enter the cave room with the bandit boss." Are you in a hurry to be the eldest nephew of the village? ”

"Ho-ho, haha......" The crowd laughed more and more unscrupulously.

Zheng Shoukuan bit the socket of his back teeth.

According to my aunt's advice when she was in a hurry, don't tell the identity of the young lady unless you have to.

But now it seems that if you want these Qiu Ba to save people, you can only give the truth.

Zheng Shoukuan then raised his voice and said loudly: "Master Jun, I was robbed by the water bandits with my aunt, and the eldest lady of the gentleman's family she served. My aunt's name is Zheng Haizhu, and the eldest lady is the eldest daughter of the Han family in Songjiang Mansion, and she has been married to the famous Gu family. Although this place is under the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture, the military master should also know that the gentry of Suzhou and Songjiang are not separated from each other. ”

When Chen Aliang heard this, his face changed firmly.

He scolded in his heart: Damn, you are really a person with a background, Qiu Wanliang, you are a killer, you don't rob the many yellow flower girls in this town, you have to go to the eldest lady of the gentleman's house.

Chen Aliang looked at the time, but he was afraid that the eldest lady had ruined Qiu Wanliang.

If you lead the troops to ask for someone at this time, I'm sorry for the silver sent by the bandit nest every month, the key is that Miss Han returned to Songjiang and cried, and the Han and Gu families came to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and the Suzhou Mansion still wanted to ask about the Qiandun Inspection Division?

Just don't do it, kill the little ghost in front of you, find a secluded place to bury it, and then go back and inform the water bandit boss Qiu Wanliang, and ask him to cover Miss Han tightly, and everything will be fine.

Chen Aliang had made up his mind, and quickly gave the thin man at the table a look.

The thin man is a veteran of the Inspection Division, and he has always known that Shangguan and the water bandit are one family, and he immediately understood what Shangguan meant.

The thin soldier was about to pounce on Zheng Shoukuan's mouth, but outside the door, there was a sudden movement of footsteps accompanied by the sound of metal.

With a rough and majestic "Come and ask this doll", a middle-aged man with tall and long arms walked into the house.

……

Zheng Shoukuan turned his head to look, but saw that the middle-aged man was wearing a knee-length short-sleeved robe, with a long knife with a curved eggplant handle hanging from his waist.

The lion nose and eagle eyes have rough skin, deep Sichuan character lines carved between the eyebrows, and distinct horizontal flesh around the cheekbones.

This murderous appearance made him look quite terrifying in the dim light.

"Why did you come here? Cough! I think it's the noisy people that disturb the adults. ”

Chen Aliang respectfully saluted the man, pointed at Zheng Shoukuan, and sharply ordered his subordinates: "Quickly take this Diao people out, and blast far!" ”

The middle-aged man waved his hand, walked up to Zheng Shoukuan, slightly restrained the coldness in his eyes, and asked, "Are you from Longxi, Zhangzhou Mansion?" Your aunt's name is Zheng Haizhu? ”

Zheng Shoukuan nodded, and when he plucked up the courage to look at the man, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes in addition to the cowardice.

"How old is your aunt?" The middle-aged man continued.

"Lord Hui, my aunt was born in the twenty-fourth year of Wanli and is twenty years old this year."

"How did you get from Zhangzhou to Songjiang to the Han family as a servant?"

Zheng Shoukuan calmed down a little, and said eloquently: "My lord, the Zhangrong and yarn silk of our Zhangzhou Mansion are as famous as the Wu Shu brocade in Jiangnan and Sichuan. In my family, in addition to the velvet, I also have some skills in dyeing silk. After my father and mother died, my aunt and I were the only ones left in the house. The clansmen bullied us and wanted to marry my aunt to a foreign country, so my aunt combed herself in the county, sold her house, and took me to Jiangnan to find a way to live. When we arrived in Songjiang, we heard that Miss Han's embroidery was very famous, so we went to the door and Miss Han was kind enough to take it in. ”

The middle-aged man interrupted him: "Jiangnan Jingentry family, the most important family rules, Miss Han is a daughter in the boudoir, how can she go out and run around like this?" ”

"No, it's not running around. This spring, Miss Han heard that there was an embroidery senior in Suzhou who opened an account to accept apprentices, and wanted to ask for embroidery workers in Songjiang, but it was more difficult for the senior to ask for help than Zhuge Kongming, so Miss Han hid from the old lady of the Han family and brought my aunt and me to Suzhou Mansion. ”

After Zheng Shoukuan finished answering, he lowered his head, and his gaze fell on the middle-aged man's feet.

It was a pair of leather boots, very old and with sporadic holes, but the upper had a "guarded foot".

In this hot season, how can a civil official wear such boots.

According to the insight and experience gained by his aunt in taking him on the adventure, Zheng Shoukuan guessed that the "adult" in front of him was a military general.

I only heard the rough voice above my head sound again: "Okay, I will take people and let the inspection department also send a few brothers to lead the way and go to the bandits' den to beg for people." ”

As soon as he said this, Zheng Shoukuan was overjoyed and surprised, and Chen Aliang of the Inspection Department felt even more incredulous.

Did you hear that right?

Doesn't it mean that the farther north you go, the more lazy the officers and men become?

This general from the Northland, who came to eat and drink all night, what does he do with such idle things?

The man sneered, stared at Chen Aliang and said, "What? Think Lao Tzu is a passing general, he can't control the bad things in your Qiandun Town, and can't catch the bad people in your Qiandun Town? ”

Chen Aliang hurriedly shook his hands and said in a stacked voice: "No, no, the adults misunderstood, the small ones are here, order all the people, and listen to the adults." ”

The man simply had a showdown with him: "Deputy Secretary Chen, this doll's father is the old man who Ben Jiang befriended many years ago. Fang Cai was in the courtyard, listening to this doll say his aunt's maiden name, and now looking at the appearance of this doll, it should not be mistaken. ”

After he finished speaking, he leaned over slightly, his eagle-like sharp gaze covered Zheng Shoukuan, and he showed Qi Rong after a moment: "When you were separated from Brother Zheng, you had just landed. When I see it today, it's like, it's really like your father. ”

Zheng Shoukuan stared at the face in front of him that had never appeared in his memory, surprised, puzzled, and happy, all kinds of thoughts were intertwined, making him stammer, "Much, thank you, uncle", and then knelt down to kowtow to the man.

Chen Aliang, the head of the inspection department, secretly scolded in his heart, "It's really fucking clever", and immediately began to think that he had to secretly find a clever subordinate and take a shortcut to report to Qiu Da's family.
