Chapter 45 The hard-working Chen officials

Chen Yu thought clearly at home early in the morning, and he could find a way to buy Uncle He Jiu and the neighbors on Qingyang Street, or tie up their interests together. In this way, after Wu Song comes back, naturally no one will go to Wu Song to talk more, and there will be no key people to provide evidence for Wu Song. There is no evidence, why did Wu Song come to him for revenge? This is the first countermeasure against Wu Song, deception.

Of course, there is no such thing as an airtight wall. The matter between himself and Pan Jinlian is hard to guarantee that Wu Song will not know. Na Wu Song is also a master who likes to draw a knife to solve problems, so he has to prepare countermeasures.

Therefore, Chen Yu thought about it, and wanted to use the time when Wu Song did not come back to recruit troops and horses to recruit some lone heroes on the rivers and lakes. There are many people and great strength, as long as they can find a few more people with strong martial arts, Chen Yu doesn't believe that he can't fight that Wu Song. Of course, he may not have to fight and kill Wu Song, and there is a suitable scapegoat Ximenqing.

At this moment, Chen Yu went to the gambling house in the north of the city to find someone who could protect him.

In the Song Dynasty, gambling was prevalent, from the emperor to the ordinary people, all of whom were keen on gambling, and the people of Qinghe were no exception. Just in the north of Qinghe County, there is a gambling house next to the Goulan Washe on Sweet Water Street, which is a place where people in the county often go to gamble. This place is also the favorite gathering place for the pranksters in Yanggu County.

Chen Yu walked all the way through the streets and alleys and came to the outside of the gambling house. The idle guy leaning at the door of the gambling house saw that it was Chen Yu from a distance, and hurriedly came forward and sang a fat song: "The big officials are rich, and they haven't seen each other for a long time!" The villain is polite here, what can the official pay? ”

Chen Yu also recognized this little guy, he waved his hand, and said to this little guy: "Li Er, let me ask you, can Lu Xiaoyi be in this gambling house?" I have something for him to do, call him out for me. ”

"Big official, Lu Xiaoyi is playing gambling and throwing money inside. The villain went to him. The big official waits for a while, and the villain returns in a moment. Li Er turned around and rushed into the gambling house.

After a while, I saw a young man wearing a black cotton robe, a hairpin on his head, a short beard and a white face, and an eight-foot tall man walking out of the gambling house quickly behind Li Er. This big man is the famous "flower arm" Lu Xiaoyi in Qinghe.

"Flower arm" Lu Xiaoyi's two arms are tattooed with a ball of peony embroidery, so the people in this county call him "flower arm". This Lu Xiaoyi will also make some guns and sticks, and there are more than 20 splashes under him, often splashing and bumping in the county, and from time to time he will do some things to kill cattle and gamble. Make a living from it. In this Qingyang County, the "flower arm" Lu Xiaoyi is also a little bully, and ordinary people refuse to provoke him.

However, since Wu Song returned to Qinghe County, became the head of the capital, and cleaned up a few troublemakers on the street, Lu Xiaoyi has one more person who dare not provoke. In these days with Wu Song, Lu Xiaoyi has stabilized a lot, and he doesn't go to the street to spill and make trouble, and he fights in this gambling house all day long, and his life is not as good as before.

Lu Xiaoyi smiled all over his face. Walking in front of Chen Yu in a few steps, he sang a song, and Shi Li asked, "Hello official!" But what is there for the villain to do? ”

Chen Yu stepped forward and took Lu Xiaoyi's hand and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaoyi, my brother has something serious for you to do." Let's go with my brother to my lion building, and I'll eat and talk with you. ”

Coming to the Lion Bridge Restaurant, Chen Yu took Lu Xiaoyi up to the third floor, ordered a table of delicious fish and meat, and sifted a few pots of good wine. Chen Yu didn't say anything about finding Lu Xiaoyi, just chatted with Lu Xiaoyi, and unconsciously realized that an hour had passed between the cups and plates.

That Lu Xiaoyi is also an upright person, and he and Chen Yu eat and drink well, and they have already opened their minds and called each other brothers.

Chen Yu and Lu Xiaoyi went back and forth, and after eating two more pots of wine, Lu Xiaoyi patted the table with a red face and said, "What does my brother have to say!" Brother, I am also a cool person, as long as my brother says a word, my brother will do it for my brother! ”

After eating a few more glasses of wine, Chen Yu took out fifty taels of silver, put it on the table in front of Lu Xiaoyi, and said to Lu Xiaoyi: "Brother Xian, how can my brother let you do that bloody thing?" Brother Wei knows that you have a group of brothers, and I want you to help Brother Wei work hard for a while, and protect me for a while recently.

Is this difficult? This silver. Take it first and divide it among the brothers. After the deed is done, there is still a lot of thanks for my brother! ”

Lu Xiaoyi pushed the silver to Chen Yu, and said: "Brother, these little things, I have done it, brother, why not spend it brother?" I took care of this for my brother, and my brother was waiting for my brother at home. The brother can't ask for this silver, and asks the brother to take it back. ”

Chen Yu lowered his face and said, "Brother Xian, don't shirk!" You don't want money, what do your brothers feed on? Since it is for the brother, how can the brother wronged the brothers? Virtuous brother, virtuous brother, for my brother's family to send this little bit of silver? If the virtuous brother doesn't accept this silver, the skin of the brother will be ugly, so he can only find another helper. ”

Chen Yu's words are on this point. Lu Xiaoyi didn't dare to refuse, so he had to put the fifty taels of silver into his arms. After picking up the silver, Lu Xiaoyi straightened up from his seat, arched his hand and said to Chen Yu: "Brother's business is important, brother, I will arrange it." ”

Chen Yu also stood up, but said to Lu Xiaoyi: "Brother Xian, don't worry! You've had a lot of wine today, so go home and rest. Why don't you come to my house tomorrow and discuss it with you as a brother."

When the brother said so, the brother went back first. Tomorrow my brother will come to visit my brother again! Lu Xiaoyi saluted Chen Yu and walked downstairs leisurely.

Chen Yu stood in front of the window, looking at the back of Lu Xiaoyi who was gradually walking away on the street, and secretly wondered if this Lu Xiaoyi was available, and the clues would be visible tomorrow.

After sending Lu Xiaoyi away, Chen Yu himself was already slightly drunk from drinking. So he also left the Lion Building and walked slowly towards the streets and alleys of Qingyang.

Today, I have preliminarily dealt with Brother Qiao Yun and Lu Xiaoyi, and I have to confirm the tricks played by Uncle He Jiu's old traitor! Hey, why do I, a big official, work so hard!.

said that the princess helped Pan Jinlian in the martial arts family, bought back the coffin, and arranged for a few fire families to bury Wu Da. After the mourning was stopped, two more monks were called to accompany the spirit.

Pan Jinlian was dressed in coarse linen clothes, tied her hair with raw linen, combed it into a mourning bun, and stood in front of Wu Daling, where she kept vigilance.

Wang Po was beside Pan Jinlian and accompanied her to say some small words, and suddenly heard Chen Yu's voice outside the teahouse next door: "Wang Ganniang, what kind of tea do you have?" ”

When Wang Po heard that Chen Yu was coming, she gave Pan Jinlian a look, and hurriedly went out of the martial arts family. That Pan Jinlian also heard Chen Yu's voice, and knelt there and only looked at the door.

When Wang Po returned to the teahouse, she saw that Chen Yu had already sat down under the water curtain and was also looking at the martial arts.

Wang Po said with a smile: "Big official, I haven't seen you for a long time, eat ginger tea from the old woman to warm your body?" ”

Chen Yu said with a smile: "Godmother, I have eaten a lot of wine, and I am a little thirsty, so I should bring the tea up." ”

Wang Po ordered a cup of tea and soup, put it on the table in front of Chen Yu, and smiled at Chen Yu: "The big officials know things directly, and you also come to accompany the spirit of Wuda?" I don't know what good scriptures the officials read? ”

Chen Yu took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said, "Godmother Hugh wants to make fun of it!" Let me ask you, what is wrong with Uncle He Jiu in the martial arts family today? ”

Wang Po patted the table and said, "Isn't the big official with three eyes?" How do you know that Uncle He Jiu has fallen into evil in the martial arts family? After Uncle He Jiu vomited blood and fainted to death, it was the old woman who woke him up with water. ”
