"Let's send it off." With a cold word, Wen Zhong drove the two burly men to walk in front of Chen Tongpao.

"I have one more thing for you as a parting gift." As he spoke, he went to his arms and touched it a few times, took out a piece of exquisite jade pendant, and put it on the table.

Wen Zhong picked it up and looked at it, but it was a piece of jade jade, polished extremely smooth, and it also exuded a silvery-white light.

"It's not worth much, you can just wear it and play with it." Chen Tongpao said with a smile.

Wen Zhong flipped it over and over, and knew that this jade was an expensive thing, so he laughed: "Wen thank Lord Chen for his kindness...... You'll have a nice ride. ”

After hearing this, the two big men grabbed the elbow of Comrade Chen, walked out of the dark room, and sent it to the door.

"Let me investigate the origin of this county, and see what the relationship between him and the Lu family is, I must find out." Wen Zhong was still standing in the house, throwing the jade aside, and instructed the man.

The matter of repaying the debt was not disclosed to the Lu family in time, causing Lu Zhengfu to send people to tell Wen Zhong not to come to the door to collect debts again, begging them to breathe. As a result, the next person came back and said that a man named Chen Tongpao had returned it for his family.

Master Lu was eating lunch, but he couldn't stop him from putting down his chopsticks, his heart was full of joy, thank God, grateful to his comrades for still thinking of his affection; While looking at his precious son again, he couldn't help complaining: "The good things you did, taught me to toss for a long time, and in the end, I still made others kind to pay it back." It's good, I owe a favor for no reason......"

Lu Jishou was still sulking about Leng Ping's incident, and he felt that Chen Tongpao had robbed his concubine, and when he heard that his father praised him, he became jealous. He didn't dare to argue with his father openly, so he ate a few bites of food hastily and said, "My son is full." ”

He walked out sullenly, called a steward, and gritted his teeth and said to him: "That comrade Chen is really disgusting!" not only harbored the prisoner, but also made our master grateful to him, how to swallow this breath! My father still thinks that I can't do big things, so I'll do something big! ”

He immediately instructed the servant: "Isn't Comrade Chen still in Jiangdu?" You just took this opportunity to go to Taizhou, arrested the woman in his house, and dismissed his county magistrate by the way! ”

"Oh master," the steward was busy covering his mouth, "this thing must not be willful! No matter what the Lu family says, they are also ordinary people, and they are moved to know the county, isn't it ......"

Lu Jishou pushed him away disdainfully: "What a fuss!" You just need to discuss it with the county, get me a diploma, and then put some money in the province, and say that it is a normal official handover, then you will be dumb and eat coptis, and you can't tell if you have any hardships? He patted his head, "You have to think about it!" ”

The steward didn't dare to contradict him, said yes, kowtowed, and said: "The villain will go to Taizhou according to your arrangement, and he will definitely catch that girl back!" ”

"You can do it well, let me have a little light in front of the master!" Lu Jishou sighed and said.

"Spread the disputant in—" The official shouted at the foot of the Taizhou County Ya Hall, tearing his throat open.

In the hall, Mei Xiancheng sat down, and he took a piece of cloth and wiped the blade of the dagger of his comrade Chen.

"County Cheng...... No, Lord Zhixian, I think that the matter of civil litigation can only be handed over to the governor for disposal, so why ......"

Before the county master finished speaking, Mei Xiancheng was not happy: "I finally became the magistrate of the county for a few days, and I can't enjoy it?" If you have this opportunity, don't you still want to take care of all the affairs of the county? Buzzing like a fly next to me, be careful that the master tells you to get into the room! ”

Although the master was ashamed to bow his head like this, when he saw that the dagger was still in his hand, he cowered and retreated.

Meixian Cheng put away the dagger and brought two people in outside, both of whom were about forty men, one with a large beard and the other with a hunched back.

"Adult, the little one is called Zhao San, and his name is Mei Liu." Said with a beard.

"Mei Liu?" Mei Xiancheng listened, pointed to the hunchback and smiled: "You and I are still our family, and the master is also surnamed Mei!" ”

Mei Liu hurriedly stammered: "What a coincidence! It is an honor for a pariah to have the same surname as the magistrate! ”

"Okay, without gossiping, let's talk about the reason for your dispute." Mei Xiancheng was very proud, but he still had to pretend to be calm and calm.

Zhao San glanced at Mei Liu, then kowtowed: "Lord Mei, the two of us are the people of the same village, and the two families have always been in harmony and have no quarrels, but he has encroached on a piece of land in my ancestral tomb because of his own selfish interests. The villain's ancestral tomb is obviously eighty steps wide, but he has to say that it is only sixty steps, and he will not admit his guilt. I asked the lieutenant chief to check the field book, but there was no response for half a day, and the party made a dispute with the yamen. ”

"This matter ......," Meixian Cheng frowned.

"You just need to send someone to the chief to ask for a Honda book, and everything will be solved." The master bookkeeper gave his opinion on the side.

"You know what!" Meixian Cheng woke up the wood, then turned his head and said to Zhao San: "You are so unreasonable, what do you have to do with me for an ancestral grave to make a noise in court!" Throw them all down, and don't fight anymore in the future. ”

After that, he saw that the officials still refused to move, so he hurriedly took out the dagger and shook it vigorously in front of the public: "I am the acting county governor appointed by Lord Chen himself...... Who would dare not obey my orders?! ”

The officials hurriedly put the two of them down, Zhao San was still shouting and shouting, and one of the officials slapped him in the mouth: "The county lord is angry, don't tremble, go down!" ”

Mei Xiancheng was quite proud when he saw this scene, he clenched the dagger tightly, smiled, and commanded loudly: "Spread it again-"

"My lord, someone from the Lu family is here, saying that they have something important to see you." A servant came in from outside the lobby and said with his fists clenched.

Meixian Cheng stopped for a moment, and put the dagger into the sheath: "Let him follow me to the second hall to discuss." He had a serious face and immediately withdrew.

"Let's get straight to the point." The county gentleman brushed the dust off the table and looked up at the Lu family steward.

"Master Mei, the young master of our family wants to trouble you to go to the Chen Mansion to arrest Zhuo Lengping, the woman with the pseudonym Zhu Qiuguang, and work together to arrest her."

"Go back and tell your young master that Master Chen took her to Jiangdu, how can you catch her?"

"Oh......" the steward smiled, "But Young Master Lu is really shrewd, and he expected this step a long time ago." ”

Meixian Cheng saw that he would not give up, so he was less afraid.

"We would like to ask you to take this opportunity to get a fake diploma and ask Young Master Lu to come here to be the magistrate of the county, and directly replace Comrade Chen in order to catch that female prisoner. But you don't have to worry, the province will naturally send someone to make sure that no one knows. How? ”

The flesh on Mei Xiancheng's face twitched a few times, and he looked at him with a pair of worried eyes, not knowing how to respond.
