Chapter 260: Capture the Seal
The county office was not brightly lit, but just hung a few more lanterns, which turned out to be a little warm.
Lu Linghao was very considerate, and when he learned that Xue Bai was going to bring farmers to talk about the problem of the fields, he instructed his subordinates to cook mutton noodle soup overnight, and set it up at the street outside the county office.
A row of five large clay pots was laid out, and the flames below were blazing, becoming the most conspicuous presence in the night, and the smoke rose from the mouth of the kettle, overflowing the aroma of mutton soup and arousing people's slander.
At the steps of the gate of the county office, a clerk shouted: "You are all people in the county, the county magistrate knows that you are frightened, each of you will first receive a bowl of mutton noodle soup to fill your stomach, and wait for the county magistrate and the county lieutenant to discuss the matter of your field clearly." ”
The peasants looked at Xue Bai one after another, and a grunting sound sounded in their stomachs, they were hungry, and they had to endure waiting for the county lieutenant to arrange it.
Xue Bai knew that it was impossible for Lu Linghao to poison him, and he didn't have the amount of medicine that could poison more than a hundred big men, so he said, "Eat it." ”
Someone put the hoe aside and went over to get a bowl of noodle soup, Jiang Hai was furious, stepped forward and kicked it, and scolded: "The guy who ate lost it first, you deserve to be a starving ghost." ”
This kind of trivial thing has to be learned by experience, and it cannot be learned overnight.
The peasants in front of the queue then squatted on the side of the street squatting on the side of the street with hoes in one hand and bowls in the other, not afraid of being hot.
Lu Linghao only came out at this time, followed by a few guards in armor, and said loudly: Tonight, there was a matter of villagers grabbing the land, and this county has wronged you, and there is no place for you to sit, but your field, I and Xue County Lieutenant will definitely keep it for you.
Everyone's reaction was sparse, in short, Lu Linghao saw that the farmers' grievances were greatly dissipated, and he consciously calculated it, and invited Xue Bai to return to the office to talk in detail......
Remember the URL
"Xue Lang has been sick for a few days, and there has been such a thing in the county, but fortunately, Xue Lang recovered from his illness and was dealt with in time."
"If you see that I am a sick cat, there are people in the county who want to occupy the newly cultivated land."
"No, how can there be so many conspiracies? The county assures you that the fields are theirs, so good? ”
"That's good."
"Now that the matter is settled, let these farmers go back with enough to eat, and there will be nothing to do in the world." Lu Linghao laughed heartily and yawned, "I'm old, let's go back to sleep, sit back and relax." ”
Xue Bai didn't mean to disperse, and asked, "The county order doesn't investigate me for killing Guo Sanwulang?" ”
"What?" Lu Linghao pretended to be surprised, "Guo Thirty-five Lang is dead?"
Of course, he wanted to pursue it, but he planned to wait for two days to send those peasant households back, buy and divide a group, and wait for the noble and high-ranking officials in Luoyang to come back. At that time, Xue Bai will inevitably be endlessly investigated for unauthorized killing.
Guo Thirty-five Lang is a township tribute, and Lu Linghao personally ordered it three years ago.
"I killed it." Xue Bai said: "Don't you ask this matter tonight?" ”
"Oh, you're ...... Missed? Lu Linghao stood up, rubbed his hands, and showed great concern for Xue Bai, "This matter must be resolved, I have to appease Mrs. Guo for you, and I have to ask those in the know not to talk about it everywhere..."
He babbled in his mouth, and finally said, "Don't worry, I'll solve it for you, go back and sleep well." ”
Xue Bai said: "Don't pursue it? ”
"You stay alive, with me, you should be able to suppress this matter."
"Okay, the county order doesn't pursue me, but I have a few things I want to ask the county order." Xue Bai didn't bother to look at Lu Hao's pretend, and asked first: "Tonight, how to deal with the farmers and tribes who were killed?" ”
"Is there one? Didn't you? They are all villagers, how can they kill people? ”
"My men killed three parts.
"This matter will be reported to the master's family........
"How to deal with the occupation of acres and concealment of slaves?"
"How can this ........?"
"You officials and gentry collude, hide fields and evade taxes, forge books, collect harsh taxes without authorization, embezzle public money, steal righteous treasury, bully men and women, force good people to be slaves, and so on, how to deal with it?!"
Lu Linghao was stunned for a while, and then turned his head to look outside the county office, almost thinking that Xue Bai had invited the saint from Chang'an...... Otherwise, what's the use of saying that there are some and no ones?
"Xue Lang, I'm afraid that your illness hasn't recovered yet, and you're talking nonsense, so let's go back and recuperate."
"If I have to say that I am sick, I am seeing a doctor by Lu County Ling, or is Datang sick?"
"You rule?" Lu Linghao felt that Xue Bai was too ridiculous, "No matter how good Datang is, it will not be the turn of a petty official like us." ”
"The petty official doesn't care, Lu County Ling is a big official, do you care?"
"You're really sick."
Ken moved, and asked, "What does Xue Lang want?"
Lu Linghao glanced out of the door again, but he didn't see Xue Bai's people rushing in, thinking that as long as he didn't do anything, it would be easy to say.
Of course, he is not afraid to do it. Most of Xue Bai's guys who could fight were sent to Luoyang, and the rest were guarding the weaving workshop with Xue Xin.
At this time, he didn't want to say more, seeing that Xue Bai and the two fierce guards around him were not "simple". Xue Bai said: "Clear the acres of land and household registration, and let each family hand over the hidden fields and hidden households, that's all."
In fact, he can also do not do this, and be promoted with qualifications in peace and stability, but decentralization is really a rare opportunity to accumulate strength, and to quickly accumulate strength, it is impossible to avoid the field and population, and the population of the field represents power.
It is necessary to train henchmen, accumulate food, train subordinates, make utensils, and open money banks...... Xue Bai also needed a large population of fields, as well as power.
Of course, smart people can also make their stalls bigger and share them with the local clans, but the land of a county is so big, and Xue Bai's ambition is too big, he really can't share it with these narrow and greedy vested interests, if he reluctantly colludes with their interests and does not involve the root of the Tang Dynasty's maladministration, then, where is the meaning of ambition?
To put it more simply, for such a major event as rebellion, the foundation of strength must be in your own hands, and you can't wait until you want to win the title and then ask Song Mian to borrow some money and food.
The word "Qingzhang" is easy to say, but in fact, officials are appointed to control the fields, population, and taxes of a county, and Xue Baizhen has done it, and he will completely control Yanshi County, and then Lu Linghao will be equivalent to a puppet.
All the interests and power are handed over, and of course it is impossible for Lu Linghao to agree to make concessions...... It should be said that it is impossible to agree in his heart, but he hesitated on his face, stroked his beard and sighed.
Why don't I want to lighten the burden on the people? To tell you the truth, when I first took office, I was full of enthusiasm like you, but this matter is difficult! You go back first, and we'll take a long view.......
Xue Bai said: "How about opening a hall to solve this problem at dawn?" ”
Lu Linghao squinted, holding back his anger.
Xue Bai didn't wait for him to answer, and shouted directly: "Prepare to open the hall!" ”
Lao Liang and Jiang Hai immediately stepped forward and said, "Please open the county order!" ”
"It's so presumptuous!"
The clay man also has three points of anger, Lu Linghao persuaded him all night, and finally got angry, took a few steps back, hid in the protection of the guards, and shouted angrily: "If you are aggressive again, this county will punish you!" ”
What answered him was the sound of "bang" drawing a knife, Jiang Hai grinned and said, "Please sit in the hall with the county order!" ”
"You! This is the ..... of the county office."
Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded, Lao Liang circled his two fingers into a ring, put it in his mouth and blew a long whistle, and the outside of the county office suddenly boiled, and the farmers had already eaten mutton noodle soup and rushed in with hoes.
"Please raise the county order!"
"Ascension!"
Zhao Yuliang was not sleepy at all at this time, and after the two bowls of noodle soup fell into his stomach, he dissipated all the previous nervousness and panic, and only felt excited.
Although they are all entering the county office for the first time, they are in an orderly manner, because they are often led in line and stabbing throughout the winter, and they have no experience when they are raided for the first time.
Although Lao Liang had never been a general, he could easily command this small scene, arranging for them to guard the front and back doors of the county office and surround Lu Linghao's people.
"The first team to the middle hall!
Zhao Yuliang was the leader in this team, and when he rushed into the courtyard of the middle hall, he felt that he had entered a new world, and the whole person was inexplicably excited.
There are six guards guarding in front of the middle hall, wearing armor and holding long knives, waiting for the battle.
But through the gate, you can see that inside, the county lieutenant is sitting on the side, handsome and majestic, like a fairy figure; The county commander shrank behind the four guards, looking a little sneaky, and raised his hand to point, his face full of horror.
"You ...... Are you going to rebel? Take it all for me! Take! Lu Linghao shouted.
There are ten armored guards here, and there are ten more outside, and there are more than twenty people in the Lu family's subordinates and retinue, some of whom are still extraordinary knights, although the number is not much, but it is far from being comparable to these mud legs under Xue Bai's hands.
Lu Linghao dared to let Xue Bai bring these mud legs, because he knew that as soon as the guards drank it, they could scare them into scattering.
"Retreat!" The guards shouted.
Zhao Yuliang was so frightened that he hurriedly raised the hoe diagonally, but unexpectedly felt that the guards on the opposite side were also a little nervous.
"Don't ask the county order to ascend to the hall yet!" Lao Liang shouted.
Zhao Yuliang took two steps forward, and the hoes and shovels in the hands of dozens of farmers around him also waved forward.
With the long-term peace in the Tang Dynasty, the military system of Juntian and the government was completely destroyed, and the folk atmosphere also changed. As for Lu Linghao's guards, they all look burly, but they are used to living a good life of big fish and big meat, and they are used to bullying civilians on weekdays, and they have seen such battles when they have seen such battles.
The sharp shovel waved in front of him, and the six guards retreated one after another, exclaiming.
"You're going to retreat! Retreat!"
Zhao Yuliang took in their panic, and couldn't help but be surprised, for the first time in his life, he felt that he was not inferior to others.
So he forgot his fear, and brandished his hoe with all the more vigor.
"Ascension! Ascension!"
When the fight really started, I really didn't know who would win and who would lose, and the conflict was about to break out, but it hadn't happened yet, because the guards took another step back and waited for the orders of the county order.
In other words, Gao Chong, I am afraid that he has already killed and injured Xue Bai, and Lu Linghao is still thinking about it.
One of the guards retreated to the wall, raised his long knife and roared, "If you don't retreat, I'll kill you!" ”
Cold sweat broke out on Lu Linghao's forehead, and he licked his dry lips...... It's just a promotion, so why is there any need to fight each other?
"Ascension!"
He finally shouted out and didn't let the guards slaughter the unarmed people.
"The ascension of this county is..."
If Gao Chong and Lu Linghao are An Lushan's officials and Tang Dynasty officials respectively, their reactions also have the common characteristics of both sides, on the one hand, they dare to think and do things, and they are unscrupulous; On the one hand, he is trapped in singing and dancing for fear of a little change, so he is stubborn and weak.
Therefore, in the end, there was no fight, Xue Bai was a little disappointed, but not surprised.
"Prepare to ascend to the court, seal off the treasury, and take out all the tax books when Mr. Yin arrives."
"Whoa."
"Call Xue Xin to come back and bring the women in the weaving workshop who are called fugitive slaves, and the case will be tried together.
"Whoa."
"The weapons are all unloaded, and there is no need for knives and guns in the county office. Oh, just take the farm tools, the farmer just has this little belongings, don't lose them. ”
Here...... You guys, still don't put down the knife?! ”
At this point, Lu Linghao's momentum has been discharged, and it is impossible to really fight, it is nothing more than cooperating with Xue Bai, but he can be safe and sound, and in the future, he will repay his grievances with the relationship in the palace, so he waved his hand helplessly and asked people to put down their weapons.
Xue Bai was really a lot kinder, and said, "Is it good for the county order to borrow the seal for me?" ”
Lu Linghao was in a dilemma, his staff member Yuan Yiheng rolled his eyes, and made a decision in this moment.
"County order, I'll go and get the seal and give it to the county lieutenant, okay?"
Yuan Yiheng's small move not only sold Xue Bai well, but also alleviated Lu Linghao's embarrassment.
Lu Linghao didn't miss his affection, and sneered as an answer, thinking about this matter, and seeing if the imperial court could tolerate the rebellion that dared to seize the Shangguan seal by force, it must be known that Gao Xianzhi had already committed a big taboo just by overstepping the level to report his merits.
After a while, the seal was held by Yuan Yiheng with both hands and handed to Xue Bai.
Everyone was preparing enthusiastically, and by the time it was almost dawn, Xue Bai had completely controlled the county office.
"Invite all families to come, those who wish to come, those who do not want to come...... At one's own risk. ”
"Whoa."
"Beat the drums and gather the people."
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The sound of drums broke the early morning in the county seat.
"Is the drum sounding?"
"The drums sounded, and the county order summoned everyone to the county office."
Soon, many people were crowded on the street of the county office, and those crowded in the rear could only listen to the people in front of them tell the situation in the court.
In the public court, Lu Linghao sat on the main seat, his eyelids were so heavy that he had to fall asleep from time to time, and his head fell down. The plain and majestic county order, because he didn't sleep all night, immediately showed his old state and mediocrity.
Xue Bai rested peacefully for a while before the opening of the hall, and sat next to him at this time, his body was straight, tall and majestic, and Lu Linghao looked like an adjutant.
Jingtangmu was also held in Xue Bai's hand, and when it arrived, there was a sound of "popping".
"Today's trial of Yanshi County's case of concealing the household registration of acres of land and unfair taxation can be reported to anyone who has grievances related to land and taxes."
Cui Zhai.
When Xue Bai and Gao Chong clashed before, Cui Zhai temporarily sheltered Xue Bai, but now the situation has changed, which is embarrassing.
Zheng Wei was admitted to the hospital, and when he looked around, he saw that the courtyards were crowded with the families of all major households.
In the lobby, the hall was full of gorgeous clothes, and all the princes gathered.
"What's going on?"
"As soon as Xue Bai came back, Lu Linghao was frightened, and he had to measure the acres again."
"What do you rely on? So arrogant?"
"Over and over again, get rid of ........"
"Gao Langjun is here!"
Everyone couldn't help but wonder and turned their heads to look.
I could only hear the neighing of horses outside, and then the noble man of the wind and dust strode with Tian Qianzhen and Kang Bu, just looking at the calm and unhurried pace was reassuring.
"Why did Gao Langjun come back so soon?"
Gao Shang was not in a hurry to answer, but first let them talk about what happened in Yanshi County.
After hearing this, he thought about it carefully, and there was a slight doubt in his eyes.
After looking around, he beckoned Song Mian and asked, "Fan Jiao said that Xue Bai was in his hands, why did he get to the county office again?"
Song Mian said: "I don't know yet, either Fan Gao lied at the beginning, or Xue Bai escaped." ”
Gao Shang said: "Trick, fortunately, we didn't hit the plan." ”
He stood up, raised his voice a little, and said, "Don't worry, what Xue Bai's plan is, I have already guessed."
The big families talked a few more words, and gradually quieted down.
"He bribed the peasant households, trained them, temporarily seized the power of the county office, and then in the name of asking for the people's life, he squeezed benefits from you by checking the household registration of the acres of land, these are very clear, the key is....why is he?"
Cui instigated and sighed: "Yes, why is he? ”
"When I got the news of Lu County's order, I was already on my way back to Yanshi from Luoyang. Because his hind hand is now on the Luo River. ”
"What is it?"
Don't worry, I'll tell you one by one. ”
Gao Shang smiled first, and there was a small gesture of waving his hand gently, saying that he would stabilize his morale first.
"Xue Bai went to Yuncheng first and recruited a group of smugglers, the other party was my old acquaintance, named Fan Gao. Of course, Fan Jiao could not help him, nor did he have the ability, but detained him. ”
Song Mian thought about it for a while, and then understood, and said, "How dare smugglers fight with the government?" Fan Gao is nothing more than selling us a good, in fact, he doesn't dare to really take Xue Bai seriously, and when the time comes, he only says that the person has run away, and he can not offend both ends. ”
"This is exactly what Xue Bai's cleverness is, Fan Gao was originally close to us, and Xue Bai went to woo him, so that he at least did not help each other, and even leaned towards him. At the same time, this is a trick to hide his true backhand.....
"Luoyang?"
"Yes." Gao Shang said: "Du Youlin's two daughters are the principals of Yang's firm in Henan Mansion, and they are extremely close to Xue Bai, and they also participated in the previous fake Zhang Sanniang case. Xue Bai's staff and thugs were all following the orders of the Du family sisters, and at this time, they had already taken Du Youlin's official boat down the river, and then there were Cao Gong who were going to follow Xue Bai to do something. ”
"It's a ploy."
"Not only that, but on this official ship, there are also the daughters of the Prime Minister's Mansion and a team of Jin Wuwei ....."
Everyone was taken aback and asked, "Is this time real?" ”
Gao Shang smiled and responded, "This time it's true. ”
The weakness of the vested interests was once again reflected at this moment, and some people thought that it was a big deal to let Xue Bai measure his own fields, and pay more taxes in the past few years, so as not to hurt the fundamentals.
Xue Bai recruited them to go to the county office to open a court, and they were responsible for the consequences of not going, and they didn't know what the consequences were? The atmosphere quieted down, and Gao Shang only felt funny, and said unhurriedly: "Fortunately, local official affairs are not up to the prime minister's daughter." Yang joined the army, who led Jin Wuwei to the army this time, with an extraordinary status and a hearty person.
Linghu Shaoyin had already taken me to meet him, and we had a very happy conversation. ”
"We had a great conversation."
These four words have been heard, and many people have raised their eyebrows.
Gao Shang said all this, and he did not force these gentry to do so, anyway, Xue Bai wanted their benefits, and it had nothing to do with him.
"This is the case, if anyone wants to go to the county office, I won't stop it, and the princes will .......... for themselves."
At this time, Cui instigated a message, beckoned, and whispered to Gao Shang: "Fan Jiao is on the dock, I want to give Gao Langjun an explanation." ”
"Is it really here? It's too honest. ”
Gao Shang seemed to be amused, and then sighed slightly and went to see it in person. Cui instigated for his safety and sent a team of family members to protect him.
At this time, most of the people in the city had gathered at the county office, and the streets and alleys were much deserted. Gao Shang went all the way out of the city gate, and saw the wharf workers gathered in front of him, and no longer moved forward, so that Kangbu went to summon Fan Jiao to come over.
Fan Gao also brought four people, but did not include the Diao brothers, which made Gao Shang a little disappointed.
"Mr. Gao."
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've had a lot of vicissitudes." Gao Shang looked at the white hair on Fan Gao's sideburns and said, "Have you had a hard time?"
"It's not bitter, it's rich." Fan Gao laughed.
Gao Shang shook his head and said, "Those few broken money are not worthy of you.... Let's get down to business, I have to avenge my brother's revenge, can you understand?
"Gao Chong was not killed by my people."
"Who's that?"
"When a man is dead, he should have thought about the consequences if he dared to smuggle iron weapons. If I die, I don't want my brothers to avenge me, for that's what human life like ours ........
"You're still like this, too rigid, you know?" Gao Shang said: "If it wasn't killed by the Diao brothers, or Xue Bai killed it, it's nothing more than these two possibilities." You said that you were going to hand over Xue Bai to me. ”
"I did detain Xue Bai, but he was rescued.
Gao Shang apparently did not believe it and asked, "Who saved it?" ”
"Aunt Gongsun and her disciples."
"We've been friends for many years, and that's what you told me?"
Fan Gao's face turned bitter, and he said: "The Song family sent a steward to me, and Xue Bai persuaded me to do things with him at that time. Without saying a word, let people hack the Song family steward to death, and I will take Xue Bai down and want to repay the kindness you gave me back then. But that night, Aunt Gongsun came up the mountain and rescued Xue Bai...... Do you believe it? ”
Gao Shang asked rhetorically, "What do you want me to do?" ”
"If I say I did my best, you won't trouble the Diao brothers again, okay?"
"It's the Diao brothers again, when they resisted taxes and killed the servants, I will let you kill them for meritorious service. Look at you now...... A pariah like me is already an official of the imperial court, what about you? Poor people, you are not even a household, hiding in the mountains like a mouse. If I listen to you and let them go, what will you become in the future? Beggar? Do you know how bitter beggars are? I did, you didn't. It's too much, kill them, and I'll give you a future. ”
"Why can't they be spared? They didn't kill Gao Chong. ”
"They took my brother's head and received the reward in public, and this is my face."
"The objects that are appreciated are very important to the people in the mountains, and we need so many fabrics....."
Gao Shang said: "I treat you as a hero, and I only interceded for you back then." You're only talking about fabrics now? I'm still busy, so I took the time to come here because you said you would give me Xue Bai's head. ”
Fan Gao still had a lot to say, his throat rolled, and he swallowed.
"Back then, I also stood with us as you, but now it seems that I am not a hero, and you only care about yourself...... I won't make friends, if you want to set foot on Erlang Mountain, come here. ”
Gao Shang looked at the back of this old acquaintance, a little disappointed.
But he didn't look at it for long, and quickly looked away, because there were already ships coming from the upper reaches of the Luo River, it was Xue Bai's forces, and there was a kind of momentum that wanted to enter the Yanshi.
It's a pity that Yanshi still belongs to Henan Mansion and belongs to the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty......
The big boat went down the Luo River.
On the deck, two little ladies were holding hands and looking in the direction of Yanshi Wharf.
"Will he come and pick us up?"
"Definitely not."
Li Tengkong replied with great certainty, but his voice was very small, and he glanced back, hoping that no one would hear.
Everywhere his eyes fell, Du Shizheng, who was wearing a robe and was imposing, walked over.
"Actually, we really shouldn't have come to Yanshi, so that people think we are coming to see him." Li Tengkong then said to Li Jilan: "It's my brother-in-law who wants to investigate Zhang Sanniang's case." ”
The brother-in-law she said was Yang Qixuan, Li Shiniang's husband, and the couple also came this time, because there were too many things going on with Yanshi, Li Linfu also had to confirm the truth, so he asked them to take a look.
After completing this errand, Yang Qixuan will be promoted to supervise the imperial history.
"I know your brother-in-law asked you to come."
As he spoke, Du Shi had already walked over and sighed slightly: "But Xue Bai really doesn't want you to come at this time." ”
What she said was the truth, in Xue Bai's plan, it was enough to have Yang Qixuan, which could make the Yanshi officials and gentry jealous and despise the enemy. As for whether these two little ladies come or not, it doesn't really matter.
Bidu Shi still expressed Xue Bai's concern for Li Tengkong, and said softly: "He is afraid that you are in danger." ”
Li Tengkong couldn't stand such a tone, turned his head slightly, and said lightly: "Traveling all over the world, I will meet old friends, what's the danger?" ”
The big ship is smooth sailing and ready to dock.
They stopped talking and turned back to the cabin.
When the boat stopped on the shore, it was Du Youlin, Yang Qixuan and other officials who went down first, and the women waited later.
This situation is very similar to when Xue Bai was wooing Caogong, so all the big families were very vigilant, and when they saw Du Youlin with Jin Wuwei behind him, they were worried.
Until the noble arrives, calmly meet it.
"Brother Yang."
"Senior brother." Yang Qixuan hurriedly went up and pulled Gao Shang, turned his head and said, "Duke Du knows the senior brother?" It was General Wu who introduced me to the great talent. ”
"Don't dare to be the word 'great talent', don't dare, come, I will introduce Brother Yang to Yanshi County."
"Brother Yang." Song Mian saluted and said, "Brother Yang came from afar, but the county officials greeted him in the future, and it was really lost" I didn't tell others, the sage and the right minister asked me to inspect, naturally it is not appropriate to make a big fanfare, you must not be commensurate with your official position. ”
is not commensurate with his official position, so he naturally snubbed Du Youlin.
This is the consequence of Du Youlin's last time he sang and harmonized with Xue Bai and used the county's money to pay the Cao workers, and he was disliked.
Gao Shang and Yang Qixuan talked happily with the children of the gentry of Yanshi.
"By the way, Linghu Shaoyin can be on the boat?"
"Nope." Yang Qi preached: "But Linghu Shaoyin is also here, on a boat behind. The county magistrate can't afford to slack off, and there is still an hour to prepare for it. ”
At this point, the top officials from Chang'an have stood on the side of the gentry, and the high-ranking officials from Luoyang have also come.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and relieved their hearts.
"Send someone to invite the county magistrate and the county lieutenant to come, what kind of case are you trying yet?"
"Yes, what other cases are being tried?"
County Office Courts.
"Of course my man refused to let go, and was beaten to death.......
There was a woman in the hall crying, and the scribe was writing a book, and the pleadings were stacked thickly.
Xue Bai glanced at the court and found that none of those high-ranking families had come.
It was past noon, and the various arrangements outside the public hall must have been underway.
Before the accusation was heard, a guy hurried over, attached to Xue Bai's ear, and said, "County Captain, the ship has arrived......
Xue Bai nodded, although some private matters were unexpected by him, they did not affect his plan, only distracted him slightly, and then began to command.
"If you don't come, don't wait, let's do it."
"Whoa."
The guy retreated, Xue Bai gave Jiang Hai a look, and Jiang Hai followed.
Out of the county office, Jiang Hai turned over and got on the horse, followed the guy straight out of the north of the city, ran all the way, and arrived at a farm under Shouyang Mountain, where Hu Laishui greeted him.
"Has the old man come down the mountain?"
"Of course not." Hu Laishui responded.
Jiang Hai said: "They probably think they have won." ”
"Hey."
"Where's the stuff?"
"I moved in overnight, and the horses rested enough........"
Jiang Hai walked towards the farm while listening, and two more people came out, and he couldn't help grinning:
"You two, don't be soft when you kill."
Diao Bing and Diao Geng were very angry, but they were really afraid of a ruthless person like Jiang Hai, so they only dared to return a sentence or two.
"Cover your ugly face, teach people to recognize it, and harm your county lieutenant."
"I remember the phrase 'your county lieutenant'."
Jiang Hai took a sip and strode into the house, only to see a group of big men sleeping, everywhere, I am afraid that there are twenty or thirty people in one room.
Several large boxes were placed on the ground, and they were filled with weapons.
"you fools! Where did this old shield come from? ”
"What was stolen from the Iron Mountain was not a shield, but a steel window."
"Damn, stupid death, there's a ...... with a shield There's a fart. A pack of earth dogs, more trouble than I can fight. ”
Jiang Hai swallowed angrily, and the next moment he picked up a long-handled knife, his eyes lit up.
"Can you still make this? Ha ......."
The afternoon sun shone obliquely, and the blade was shining through the cold, looking very sharp, shining on Jiang Hai's scarred face, which was very terrifying.
"Let's go, go up the hill."
The sun is gradually setting in the western mountains.
On the banks of the Luoshui River, the gentry had gathered on the dock, waiting for the boat of Henan Shaoyin Linghutao.
And the feast is ready, the wine and food, the Mei Ji singing and dancing, the only drawback is that the two county officials are still trying the case at the county office.
Let them be, when Linghu Shaoyin arrives, they will bear the consequences.
"It's coming!"
Finally, the big boat slowly appeared on the Luo River, and everyone raised their eyes, their eyes full of awe.
Diao Bing and Diao Geng also finally climbed Shouyang Mountain.
They looked around and marveled.
Eat dog intestines, this is much better than Erlang Mountain, and that's it for the gods to live, right?
"Who?!"
Ahead is Taniguchi, and a family is coming.
"Who are you? Come to Luhun Villa, can you have an invitation? ”
"Yes!"
Diao Geng said loudly: "Your head of the family invited me to come, and said that Xue Bai's head would be handed over, and Song Tiangui's matter would be forgotten, we let Xue Bai run away, but brought the murderer!" ”
Diao Bing said: "We have been transporting red material to the Song family all year round, and Song Tianshou also knows us!" ”
Someone in the family said to his companion, "Go and ask Steward Song." ”
After a while, Song Tianshou really arrived.
"Steward Song!" Diao Bing shouted: "Your brother was not killed by me, but by Xue Bai's subordinates, and I brought it to you!" ”
"Silence." Song Tianshou said with a straight face: "Only two people are allowed to come in, and they will be escorted over." ”
"Okay."
Before sunset, the Diao brothers escorted Jiang Hai, who was covered with his head and tied up with flowers, into Luhun Mountain.
