Zheng Haizhu thought that most of the people in front of him were simple-minded peasants, who were easy to be instigated and intimidated.

Unexpectedly, her master, Miss Han, who looked gentle and actually a little sassy, heard Weng Yuansheng squeeze Gu Shouqian, and was already angry, and just caught the other party telling a lie that he could falsify, and immediately decided to stand up and make it clear.

Han Ximeng faced everyone: "On the day of Qixi Festival, my maid and I were in Hanshan Temple, and saw Dong Erye and several scribes, accompanied by the presiding officer of the temple, and appreciating the poems and tablets in the temple, how could he bully the villagers in his own house more than 100 miles away?" ”

Dong Zu often heard this, let go of Weng Yuansheng, turned sideways and said: "Thank you Miss Han for clarifying, I did meet friends in Gusu City that day, and I didn't know that Miss Han was also a Range Rover there." ”

Weng Yuansheng heard the word "Han", but he turned the eyes of the two mice, stared at Han Ximeng and said, "This, but the eldest lady of the Han Mansion in Qingshui Lane?" Why is it that Di is also in the Dong family today? ”

Han Ximeng disdains to deal with this kind of rat generation who is a fly camp dog.

Although Zheng Shoukuan on the side is young, he understands the taboos of the world under the influence of Zheng Haizhu, so he coldly replied on behalf of the hostess: "My young lady is just passing by this street today, and I don't want to meet those green-skinned people coming around, of course we can only enter the Dong Mansion with female dependents to avoid trouble." ”

Weng Yuansheng heard that the other party did not deny that it was the eldest lady of the Han family, so he laughed sly, pulled his throat and said: "I also remember, little official, more than half a month ago, Master Han secretly came to our Wu Governor's Mansion and said that her nephew's daughter, well, that is, this Miss Han, left a book to learn embroidery, so she left home without permission and begged our government to find someone." Just a few days ago, news came from the Weitang Inspection Department of the neighboring county, saying that a young lady surnamed Han and a maid surnamed Zheng took a night boat to go down in Suzhou, but they were taken away by bandits. Oops, isn't it...... Hey, it's not right, if it's really Miss Han who suffers, why did you come back again? ”

Weng Yuansheng was already in a vicious state of jumping over the wall in a hurry, and his words were full of obscene hints.

When Han Ximeng heard this, he was indeed shocked, and his heart jumped suddenly.

The celebrity lady of Songjiang Mansion loves to go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to enter the incense, and she originally thought that her appearance in Hanshan Temple would not cause people to think too much.

Unexpectedly, this thief-eyed scribe knew so much.

But when I thought about it, at this point, I was so secretive and even cowardly that I was speechless, but instead fueled the arrogance of this bad seed and ignited future gossip.

Han Ximeng simply stared at Weng Yuansheng without dodging, and said loudly: "You don't have to be yin and yang, the three of our master and servant were robbed by the bandits that day. Fortunately, as soon as he entered the bandit village, he met this general Ma, who was leading the imperial army to clear the thieves' den. By the way, this maid of my family did not let her eyebrows, and she also helped General Ma to help the bandit leader. You are a filthy bad person, when you hear that the bandits have kidnapped the woman of a good family, you only think about the innocence of the filthy person, where will you understand, Lang Lang Qiankun has its own righteousness, there is the court as the master, there are strong generals like General Ma to lead the elite soldiers, what kind of lake bandits and bandits, what are we people afraid of them? ”

As soon as Han Ximeng's courage came up, he spoke heartily and solemnly, and he heard that the neighbors who surrounded Dong's house all showed a look of approval.

Ma Xianglin stood with his sleeves back, listened to Han Ximeng's eloquent talk, caught a glimpse of Zheng Haizhu's somewhat nervous gaze, and immediately had a plan.

He nodded at the right time and said, "Yes, that lake bandit is exactly what the general has suppressed, Miss Han is a good servant, and this Miss Zheng is very brave." The court will reward itself. By the way, your parents in Songjiang Mansion, Master Huang, also witnessed the situation at that time, Master Huang, if you can't see your Wu Governor's Mansion this time, you have to bring the words, and Songjiang Mansion should praise the righteous and courageous deeds of the Han family's nephews and servants. ”

Huang Zunsu glanced at Weng Yuansheng obliquely, bowed his hand to Ma Xianglin, and preached with deep meaning: "This official understands that it is necessary to let the men of the three counties of one government also introspect themselves, and they should do something and not do something. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden commotion around the crowd, and two men in official uniforms squeezed in with panic on their faces.

The color of their robes is the same as that of Huang Zunsu, all of them are blue-blue, but on the complement on their chests, one is embroidered with a white pheasant and the other is embroidered with a heron, which are the Tongzhi of the fifth grade and the general judgment of the sixth grade.

"Oh, I don't know if the Beijing master is coming, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome."

These two old oilmen of officialdom are much more naturally knowledgeable than the people around them, and they know that the flying fish suit is a gift, not only for the brocade guards in the weaving, so they did not recklessly shout "angel" to Ma Xianglin.

But those who can put on the flying fish suit and bring so many cavalry to kill must have some background, and they must not be taken lightly.

They had just learned from the informant that they had only half a claw, and they quickly realized that Huang Zunsu had found strong reinforcements, and the situation had taken a turn for the worse, and this time the blow to the Dong Mansion could only be lost.

The two of them then took up their official authority, first shouted and cheered the officials and villagers they brought, dispersed the green-skinned hooligans and the peasants who followed the coaxing, and then took a few leading men in Fanjiazhuang, patted Ma Xianglin's chest and promised that they would be severely punished.

When Tongzhi and Tongju were pretending, they saw that the ebony door of the Dong Mansion was completely opened by the domestic servants, and an old man wearing a mesh Tang scarf hat and a brown mountain-patterned Taoist robe, accompanied by his disciple Gu Shouqian, stepped down the steps.

"Father was frightened." Dong Zu often stepped forward busily.

Dong Qichang, who was over the age of six, bowed his hand to Ma Xianglin, Huang Zunsu and others: "Several, the situation suddenly got out of control, I heard that the villagers were preparing to burn the house with fuel, and the old man was anxious to move the family's collection of calligraphy and paintings from the previous dynasty to the cellar, so he came out late. ”

After a few words of greeting, Dong Qichang came to the men of Fanjiazhuang who had been shackled, pointed at them, and said to the Tongzhi and Tongzhi of Songjiang Mansion: "The two parents are embarrassed by them, are they pretending to be confused?" They are just simple and righteous villagers, and they are in danger of causing a catastrophe today, all because they were deceived by Weng Yuansheng. General Ma and the neighbors from the imperial court are invited to witness that as long as the old man corrects Weng Yuansheng, who slandered and bewitched the people, he will never be angry with Fan Chang's bereaved family and the villagers of Fanjiazhuang. ”

Ma Xianglin also walked up and said lightly: "Okay, I will return to Beijing to resume my life, and when I pass by Yingtianfu, I will also inform the Futai and the Procuratorate of this matter." ”

The Tongzhi of Songjiang Mansion had no choice, so he had to order the people of Fanjiazhuang to be released in full view of everyone, and Weng Yuansheng, who was already as pale as earth, was taken away.

After the country men thanked Dong Shichang with a look of shame and left together, Tongzhi and Tongju smiled politely, and wanted to arrange a hall for Ma Xianglin and his sergeants and set up a banquet to catch the wind.

Gu Shouqian stepped forward at this time and said, "General Ma, Miss Han has already made a marriage contract with Zaixia, and I am grateful for my lord's previous rescue actions." My family has a academy in the city, which recruits children from various counties in Songjiang to study and take examinations. These days are the time for late rice planting, and they have all gone back to help the family with farm work. Please adults and athletes, go to the academy to rest, and let me do my best to meet the friendship of the landlord. ”

Ma Xianglin smiled: "Okay, I'll go to your house." ”

He said lightly to the Tongzhi of Songjiang Mansion: "You guys should also go back, I will clear the bandits for days, and I am very tired, and it is enough to have Huang Guanren to accompany me to drink a few glasses of thin wine and talk about friendship." ”
