Volume 1 Chapter 165 Chen County Order, we meet again
The crowd looked behind them when they heard the sound, and after a while, a stumbling young man was helped in by a road around the human wall.
Everyone looked at it and exclaimed: "Ding Erxiao! ”
Xu He also looked at the visitor in surprise at this time, it turned out that he was the young man they rescued outside Qintong.
When Lao Zheng Tou saw Ding Erxiao, Gujing Bubo's face finally showed a trace of excitement, his lips trembled slightly, and he forcibly held back his joy and said, "Erxiao, you are not dead?" ”
Ding Erxiao hugged Lao Zheng Tou and cried: "Uncle Zheng, the second child is not dead, the second child is not dead!" ”
The young man next to Lao Zheng's head punched Ding Erxiao's chest and said, "Second Brother Ding, when we all saw that you came back and were arrested, we thought that you were killed and buried by Dou Lao Thief!" ”
When Ding Erxiao heard Dou Matong's name, a trace of disdain appeared on his weak but unruly face, and he scolded: "Dog, I still want to kill them, I took advantage of their unpreparedness and escaped with a special mother." ”
"Two small!"
"Brother!"
Suddenly, a young and pretty girl walked into the crowd with a blind mother-in-law.
Ding Erxiao, a man who was in Tibet, cried excitedly after seeing his blind mother-in-law, and immediately broke free from the person who supported him, rushed to his mother-in-law, knelt down and shouted: "Mother! ”
The blind mother-in-law stretched out her thin hands, trembling and touching her son, and two lines of cloudy tears flowed from the cracks in her eyes, which could no longer be opened.
"Mother, forgive my son for being unfilial, I escaped, Dou Lao thief must be trying to find trouble for you!" Ding Erxiao cried and kowtowed.
The young man on the side helped him up and choked up: "Second Brother Ding, Dou Matong arrested the eldest mother and Juan'er sister all into the mansion, if we didn't rebel, Juan'er sister would ......"
Ding Erxiao gritted his teeth when he heard this: "What about Dou Ma Tong?" I'm going to tear him alive! ”
The young man said proudly: "Dead, beaten to death by us!" ”
Ding Er looked at him in surprise, still unable to believe that the news was true.
Lao Zheng nodded and said, "Not only Dou Matong, but also those who bully us on weekdays, all of them have been caught and killed by us!" ”
The young man smiled and said, "Second brother, and that Lu San, do you remember?" He has not been killed by us after being caught, and he will vent his hatred for you when the time comes! ”
Ding Erxiao nodded when he heard this, then turned to look at Xu He and asked everyone, "Why did you kill him?" ”
The young man glared at Xu He fiercely and said, "This guy and Dou Matong are all in the same group!" ”
Xu He was directly speechless, when was his ingredient classified as a salt tyrant?
The young man waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense, this boy saved me on the way, and I almost starved to death at that time, but it was this boy who rescued me on the boat and fed me some food." Otherwise, I wouldn't know which way I fell by now! ”
"And after they rescued me on the boat, I pretended to be unconscious, and I heard him tell his subordinates that he wanted to persuade Zhang Bingxian not to send troops to encircle and suppress us!"
Xu He was stunned and said, "So you were awake when we were talking?" ”
Ding Er nodded: "Because I saw that your entourage was carrying knives in their hands, I thought you were bandits, so I pretended to be unconscious, but I really fell asleep not long after, and if I hadn't been found in the cabin just now, maybe I'd still be asleep now!" ”
Xu He: "......"
Old Zheng Tou frowned when he heard this, and said to Ding Erxiao: "What the hell is going on?" ”
Ding Erxiao then told him how to avoid the salt soldiers sent by Dou Matong after he escaped, how he met Xu He and others by mistake, and heard Xu He mention the tea field in the cabin.
When everyone heard Ding Er's sentence from Xu He that "it was the court that failed them", everyone cried.
Many of them have been drying salt in Zhangcha since their ancestors.
Although the work of drying salt was very hard, they endured it from generation to generation in order to fill their stomachs.
Who really wants to rebel unless it is absolutely necessary?
It's really not that they can't live anymore, who wants to leave their homeland?
But the taxes of the imperial court became heavier and heavier, and the exploitation of officials became more and more ruthless, and finally, the last two cents and a catty of salt became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
This thief, God, don't let them live after all.
is such a group of people, such a group of hard-working people, until now, I thought that it was the officials and the court who oppressed them, not the human emperor who hid in the deep palace and only knew that he was immortal every day.
Xu He was a little sad, a little unworthy for them, but he couldn't tell these miserable people, in fact, the one who really wanted the lives of your people was the one in your hearts who was sacred and could not be violated and blasphemed.
Because of Ding Erxiao's narration, people's hostility towards Xu He was significantly reduced.
Old Zheng Tou drank back a few young people who were holding him, and said in surprise: "Young Master Xu, do you really have a way to save us?" ”
Xu He knew that he couldn't hesitate at this time, so he nodded heavily and said, "Trust me!" ”
"Uncle Zheng......" Just now, the young man excitedly wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Ding Erxiao beside him.
The young man seemed to listen to Ding Erxiao's words very much, and after being stopped, although his face was still indignant, he finally endured it.
Old Zheng Tou glanced at the young man, then turned to Xu He and said, "Young Master Xu, please tell me your method!" ”
Xu He adjusted his thoughts, nodded and said: "First of all, you have to release the Hailing County Order first, he has just taken office, and he has no entanglement with Hailing and various salt farms, and there is no reason for you to arrest him!" ”
Old Zheng Tou frowned and said, "But ......"
Xu He preemptively said: "I know your worries, it's better to be like this, please ask Chen County Commander to come out first, you can send someone to follow him to prevent him from escaping, if you want to break the situation, it will fall on that Chen County Commander after all!" ”
Old Zheng Tou thought for a moment and nodded to a few stoves behind him.
The stoves got the order, so they turned around and rushed into Dou Matong's mansion.
After a while, the unkempt Chen Hua was dragged out by several people.
Xu He almost laughed out loud when he saw him, originally this Chen Hua looked quite like an old farmer, and after such a torture, now it is better, he is not an old farmer, he has become an old tenant!
Chen Hua was tortured by these people miserably, and the stove ladies did not beat or scold him, but they neither gave him food nor water, and threw him in the water prison, only the toes could touch the ground slightly, which made him want to die.
When he was brought up, he thought that the end had come, and he was about to make a generous speech before he resolutely went to die, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a smiling face looking at him.
"Xu, Xu He?" Chen Hua's heart was full of mixed feelings at this time, both puzzled and ashamed, and a little embarrassed.
"Chen County Order, we meet again!" Xu He smiled beautifully, especially behind the two rows of white dangling big teeth exposed!
