Chapter 145: Ming Xiu Plank Road

Road pavilion, embroidered clothes on the right place.

A ride in the dust, galloping outside the gate of the upper right, turning over and dismounting.

The gatekeeper immediately pressed the knife and asked, but before the words came out, the person who came took out a wrong silver waist plate engraved with the words "Beizhen Fusi" from his waist and shook it in front of the gatekeeper.

The gatekeeper immediately waved his hands and saluted: "Meet your lordship." ”

The person who came put away the waist card: "Where is Lord Fang Kefang?" ”

Gatekeeper: "Back to my lord, Lord Fang is on duty right now." ”

The person who came immediately strode towards the door: "Quickly lead a certain family to meet Lord Fang, a certain family has 100,000 urgent matters that need to be reported to Lord Fang immediately......"

The gatekeeper caught up with the man: "Please be humble and ...... your lordship"

The person who came gasped and said, "It's about your Lord Yang." ”

The gatekeeper immediately turned around and dragged the healthy horse who was still panting at the foot of the steps: "Quick, my lord, get on the horse quickly, and I will lead you to see Lord Fang!" ”

Come:......

The goalkeeper slapped his thigh: "What are you still doing in a daze, get on the horse, we don't have so many rules!" ”

Come: 'You're lying, you just had to report it first!' ’

He was still hesitating, but the goalkeeper had already dragged the stirrup and pushed the man directly to the horse.

The comer had no choice but to reluctantly step on the horse, and the gatekeeper pulled the reins and galloped into the gate.

"Da Da Da ......"

In the lobby of the deputy Qianhu public house, Fang Ke, who was immersed in official business, raised his head, looked out of the door suspiciously, and said secretly: "Which bastard is so unruly, ride the horse to the public house......

"Fang, Lord Fang."

The gatekeeper ran into the public hall panting, waved his hands and said: "Home, home, here, someone, saying that there are 100,000 urgent things related to Lord Yang to report to you!" ”

Fang Ke immediately put down the brush in his hand, got up and grabbed the gilded oxtail knife on the weapon rack, and walked down the public hall quickly: "Immediately go and notify the first and second companies to assemble, change into civilian clothes, and prepare the horses...... Come to life! ”

"Whoa!"

The gatekeeper turned around and ran, passing by the Beizhen Mansion Si Baihu who had tied his horse and entered the door.

Beizhen Mansion Si Baihu glanced at his back in confusion, and turned his head to salute Fang Ke under the hall...... The prisoner cow suit and the gilded oxtail knife are too easy to identify.

"Your own brothers, don't be polite!"

Fang Ke waved his hand to stop the salute of the comer, and strode to the gate with the oxtail knife: "Time is urgent, let's talk while walking!" ”

Come:???

Fang Ke didn't give him a chance to ask, and continued: "Let me guess, Lord Shen will let Ling come over in advance, indicating that the work of arresting my Lord Yang this time is definitely not our embroidery guard, since it is not our embroidery guard, it is definitely not the West Factory, this kind of thing, the official family will definitely not let outsiders take the lead...... That can only be the East Factory! ”

The person who came looked at Fang Ke with a ghost-like expression.

Fang Ke glanced at him and suddenly realized, "Oh? More than that? And add the three divisions? That's right, after all, Lord Yang is the fake thousand households of our embroidered guards, and he can't let the people from the six doors come to run errands, and he can't stop the mouths of the big people in the court who are too idle to do anything...... What are you doing stunned? Speak! ”

The person who came touched his face, with a look of suspicion: "My lord asked the subordinate to tell Lord Fang that this action to arrest the criminal Yang Erlang will be personally ordered by Huang Gonggong, the governor of Dongchang, to mention the Xichang, embroidered clothes, the Criminal Department, the Inspectorate, and Dali Temple, and send capable officials to arrest Yang Erlang and bring him to justice, and within three months, he will see Yang Erlang's people alive and Yang Erlang's corpse if he dies...... The fan of the East Factory should be behind the lower official, and it will be there in a moment! ”

Fang Ke twisted his brows, rubbed the handle of the knife in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "What did you just say?" Repeat! ”

The person who came cleared his throat and repeated the words that his own commander had ordered him to convey to Fang Ke one by one.

Fang Ke heard three "Yang Erlang" in a row, and his brows suddenly relaxed: "This is Lord Shen's original words?" Not a word has changed? ”

The person who came nodded: "Not a word has been changed!" ”

Fang Ke couldn't help but pick the corners of his lips, and stretched out his hand to summon a wrestler: "Everything else on our upper right is not as good as at home, but this food is a little better...... It's been hard all the way, eat more, and I'll pick you up when I get back. ”

After speaking, he pressed the oxtail knife through a moon gate.

In the next second, a large number of fierce figures dressed in various messy clothes poured out from both sides, drowning Fang Ke's back in the blink of an eye.

When the visitor looked at this scene, goosebumps inexplicably appeared on his body.

He rubbed his neck vigorously, and said in a low voice: "This is the right ...... It's a bit of an evil one! ’

……

Honest meal, Yuelai Inn is full of guests as usual.

Liu Mang sat in the corner of the front hall, and shouted loudly with a mouth full of oil: "Erniu, let's have two catties of pig's head meat again, and it will be recorded in your new owner's account." ”

Some regular customers heard his shout, and joked happily: "No wonder the little brother refuses to show his head, with such a way of eating, this inn will have to be returned to your old Liu family sooner or later." ”

"Hahaha......"

The diners burst out laughing in unison.

"What's wrong with eating him?"

Liu Mang angrily knocked on the bowl with chopsticks and shouted: "That guy bought an inn, and he followed Zhang Mazi and Zhang Daxia out to have a good time, our family of three ran the inn for him and didn't even have a salary, eat a few catties of pig's head meat, and cheapen him!" ”

Speaking of the back, he himself couldn't help but laugh.

The diners in the front hall also laughed even louder.

The old shopkeeper, who was standing behind the counter, glared at him and laughed himself when he looked down......

The front hall was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

That's the lag of information.

When Jiangsu, Zhejiang and the imperial court were already surging for Yang Erlang's assassination of King Ning.

Lu Ting is still running and cheering for the fierce achievements in the Battle of Nansha Bay......

Everyone knows that Zhang Mazi is Yang Erlang, and Yang Erlang is Zhang Mazi.

It's just that in Luting, everyone still prefers to call Yang Erlang Zhang Mazi.

And Yang Ge, the deity, was tacitly accepted by the people of Luting County as Zhang Mazi and Zhang Daxia's little brother, and some people even jokingly called him Yang Sanlang.

At the beginning, the fisherman's old man came out in front of the spirit, although it was useless for people with high enough status and good enough information, but for ordinary people, it was enough.

Of course, this may also be because people don't want to believe that a top-notch person who is famous in the north and south of the country and the rivers and lakes of the imperial court will condescend to serve dishes in an ordinary inn......

Liu Mang took advantage of this wind to release the news that Yang Ge had bought Yuelai Inn.

When the people of Luting heard the news, they felt that it was more reasonable...... One person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven, what kind of character is that Zhang Daxia? How can his little brother continue to serve dishes to others?

Since the news came out, the Yuelai Inn will be full of guests as long as it welcomes guests at noon or night.

The old shopkeeper is not sore, his legs are not painful, and he is full of energy every day standing behind the counter, happy to see his teeth and eyes......

When the house was lively, Fang Ke, who was dressed like a rich man, entered the house, and after he refused the old shopkeeper and Zhang Erniu who came up to greet the guests, he went straight to Liu Mang in the corner.

Liu Mang stared at him suspiciously for two seconds, and quickly recognized him: "You are Fang, Fang Da......"

The two of them had been busy with the funeral of the fisherman and the old man for several days, and he naturally recognized Fang Ke, but only later learned from Yang Ge that Fang Ke was the deputy of the upper right office.

"Pavilion Master Liu has a good memory, and it is Fang Da Niu below!"

Fang Ke clenched his fists with a smile on his face, interrupted Liu Mang's words, and said that he sat down next to Liu Mang, and said in a low voice: "It's all my own family, don't be an adult...... I'll cut a long story short, something has happened, and you have to come with me right away! ”

Liu Mang hurriedly put down his chopsticks: "What's wrong?" ”

Fang Keyan replied succinctly: "Lord Yang killed King Ning in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the imperial court assigned Dongchang to lead the yamen to arrest Lord Yang...... When I returned from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Lord Yang repeatedly asked me to take care of you and the old shopkeeper, please believe me, I will properly settle you, and do not let the people of Dongchang find you. ”

Liu Mang was shocked by his words: "Didn't that guy go south to kill the Japanese Kou?" How could you kill a vassal king? ”

Fang Ke replied: "King Ning is the mastermind behind those would-be robbers...... Okay, time is running out, let's hurry up, the people from Dongchang will arrive soon, don't worry, as long as nothing happens to you and the old shopkeeper, those dead eunuchs can't help Lord Yang! ”

"Wait, wait, don't panic, don't panic......"

Liu Mang was in turmoil, trying to calm himself down and grasp the point of the matter.

Fang Ke: "What's the problem?" ”

Liu Mang: "That's right, my daughter-in-law!" ”

Fang Ke: "I have already sent someone to pick up the sister-in-law of the Liu family and the whole family of the Deng butcher." ”

Liu Mang: "By the way, there is also Xiao Huang ......"

Fang Ke: "I also sent someone to pick it up." ”

Liu Mang stood up suddenly: "Then what are you still stunned about, let's go!" ”

Fang Ke raised his chin towards the counter: "You think of a way, don't scare the old man." ”

Liu Mang tightened his belt: "It's easy to say, look at me!" ”

After speaking, he walked to the counter with his head held high under Fang Ke's suspicious gaze.

Then, I saw the old shopkeeper put down the brush, grabbed the broom and chased Liu Mang out.

The corners of Fang Ke's mouth twitched, and he got up and hurried to catch up with the two of them.

After a while, Fang Ke, who was dressed in coarse cloth and short, personally drove a simple ox cart and walked in circles to the East City Gate.

A few figures hid on the eaves on both sides of the street, watching the carriage go away......

The ox cart had just crossed the moat when it was stopped by a group of brocade men.

"Phew."

Fang Ke grabbed the reins and looked at the twenty or so brocade-clothed people with white faces and beards, eyebrows and eyes with a puzzled expression.

"Deputy Fang Qianhu is really loyal."

A handsome eunuch like a woman, with red lips and white face without Adam's apples, a well-fitting black brocade robe, and a few graceful peony flowers embroidered on his chest, slowly came out of the crowd.

He was full of smiles, but his eyes were as cold as ice and snow, and while slowly stepping forward, he took off the deerskin gloves in his hand and gently pressed them on the sword at his waist: "The imperial court has issued a sea fishing document, offering a reward of 100,000 taels of silver for the arrest of the Qin criminal Yang Erlang...... The miscellaneous family is really sweating for your embroidery and family style! ”

Fang Ke furrowed his brows, and the doubts on his face became deeper and deeper: "The rank is ......"

The demonic eunuch looked at the ox cart behind him, and suddenly smiled: "Why do Deputy Fang Qianhu ask knowingly? The miscellaneous family has appeared, and Fang Deputy Qianhu still thinks that he has a chance to escape? ”

"Miscellaneous?"

Fang Ke seemed to have grasped the point, and suddenly realized: "It turned out that it was a few fathers-in-law from the West Factory in front of him, and the officials were clumsy." ”

The demonic eunuch narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled again: "Sowing discord, pretending to be stupid, the current situation of the other party's deputy Qianhu is not helpful." ”

Fang Ke: "The lower officials are ignorant, why did the father-in-law hinder the lower officials from handling the case, please make it clear!" ”

The demonic eunuch sighed softly when he heard this, waved his hand and said, "If you don't see the coffin, you won't cry......"

Seeing this, the eunuchs immediately rushed up with their waist knives.

Fang Ke didn't make any superfluous movements.

But as soon as the eunuchs surrounded his ox cart, a large number of heavy and chaotic footsteps came from the hole in the city gate behind the ox cart.

The demonic eunuch frowned his two slender eyebrows, turned his body slightly and looked at the back of the ox cart, and saw hundreds of plainclothes embroidered wrestlers, rushing out of the city gate hole in black pressure, and a bright oxtail knife was so openly and unscrupulously carried in his hand.

At a glance, a fierce, arrogant, and fearless momentum of plagiarism came to his face.

He retracted his head and looked at Fang Ke with his eyes becoming more and more cold: "What do you want to do?" ”

Fang Ke's eyes also turned cold, and he smiled: "It's what you want to do!" ”

The demonic eunuch pinched his palms and waved his hand to the west: "The miscellaneous family is the head of the East Factory should be a hundred miles, and the governor of my family will give an edict, the governor of the factory and the six doors will join forces to arrest the criminal Yang Erlang, and the special miscellaneous family will go first to the pavilion to arrest a person related to Yang Erlang, and I hope that the deputy Qianhu can understand the current affairs, don't push yourself to the end of the road!" ”

As he spoke, the 200 Shangyou Lux who poured out of the hole in the city gate had already surrounded more than 20 eunuchs from Dongchang.

The tooth-aching squeak of the feather arrow when it was twisted into the bow and crossbow string made goosebumps break out all over the eunuch of the East Factory, and the handle of the knife in his hand was soaked with cold sweat for a few breaths, and he could hardly grasp the knife steadily.

"Oh......"

Fang Ke dragged his voice and gave a long response, and then he suddenly burst into a gloomy voice: "You guys will investigate the case, arrest people, what are you doing to obstruct me from handling the case?" Scared away the suspect, are you responsible for the East Factory? ”

Factory guards, factory guards, always the east factory in the front, embroidered clothes and guards in the back, as if the imperial court has a clear law stipulating that the east factory is higher than the embroidery guard, and the embroidery guard is subordinate to the east factory.

But in fact, in the law of the imperial court, there is no obvious distinction between Dongchang and Xiuyiwei, and there is no direct subordination.

Who is higher and who is lower, who is the master and who is subordinate...... It all depends on who is stronger and who is tougher in the two major institutions.

The reason why it will leave the world with the impression that the East Factory is higher than the embroidered clothes and the embroidery guards are subordinate to the East Factory, but it is because several commanders of the embroidery guards worshiped under the great eunuch who was the governor of the East Factory at the time, and gave people a godson.

But this one was the commander of the embroidered guard...... If Shen Fa dared to recognize a eunuch as his godfather, he would have to break all three of his legs at home!

The top boss is not cowardly, and Fang Ke and those who are subordinates can't be cowardly!

"What a rake!"

Ying Baili sneered: "You Fang Ke shielded Yang Erlang......

"Whoosh."

A crossbow arrow that flew past Ying Baili's cheek blocked all the words he hadn't yet spoken, and he instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

These killings......

How dare they!!

Fang Ke was also furious, glancing left and right and shouting, "Which bastard put the arrow?" Tired of being crooked? The father-in-law of the East Factory also dares to shoot? ”

Hu Qiang squeezed out of the crowd with a mouse's eyebrows, nodded and replied: "My lord, the lowly position is slippery for a while, and it is not intentional, I must pay more attention in the future, and I promise that I will never slip again......

As he replied, he quickly reloaded the bow and crossbow in his hand with arrows, and then picked up the crossbow arrows and aimed at Ying Baili.

Ying Baili: ......

Fang Ke retracted his gaze, waved his hand to Ying Baili with an apologetic face, and said: "Fang's royal majesty is not strict, so Ying Gonggong is smiling and laughing!" ”

Ying Baili took a deep breath, forced his heart to press his anger and said: "Lord Fang, this matter has been cleared to the sky, the official family Long Yan was furious, and ordered to see people alive and corpses within three months, and said that you want to cover up, even if your Lord Shen commands the envoy to come, he doesn't dare to make a hindrance from it, why do you have to joke with your future and life?" ”

Fang Ke: 'You lied to people, the news was obviously handed to me by our Lord Shen!' ’

He feigned a confused expression: "Is there any misunderstanding here?" Why is it that I can't understand a word when you say what you say is human? ”

Ying Baili couldn't restrain the anger in his heart, raised his voice and shouted: "Lord Fang is still pretending to be stupid? Do you dare to say that the one sitting in the ox cart behind you is not the father and son of the Liu family at the Yuelai Inn? ”

"You say they?"

Fang Ke pointed to the car window curtains behind him, and couldn't help but smile.

Ying Baili: "Isn't it?" ”

Fang Ke spread his hands: "If you want to check my ox cart, you can also take the paperwork, as long as there is it, whether it is the official document of my Beizhen Mansion Division or the official document of your Dongchang, I recognize it!" ”

Ying Baili's angry face froze, and Zuo Gu Yan said: "Come in a hurry......

Fang Ke withdrew his hand: "Then you can't blame me for not giving you a chance, blame you for being too sloppy and useless in handling the case yourself!" ”

As he spoke, he grabbed the whip and whipped it on the old ox that pulled the cart, and was about to drive the cart away.

Ying Baili hurriedly opened his arms but in front of the ox cart: "You can't go!" ”

Fang Ke furrowed his brows: "Are you teaching me to do things?" ”

"Squeak ......"

The tooth-sore sound of the bowstring churning the feather arrows joined together again.

Ying Baili hurriedly said: "The miscellaneous family has already sent someone to pick up the documents, and they will be back soon, and they will be there immediately!" ”

Fang Ke hesitated for a few seconds, then sighed lightly and said, "Okay, then I'll give you this opportunity...... Back to the Yamen. ”

So saying, he turned the head of the ox and went to the cave at the city gate.

Ying Baili hurriedly waved his hand, led a group of eunuchs to catch up, and followed behind the ox cart step by step.

Two hundred wrestlers surrounded them and went back to the city together......

In the midst of the chaos, a small group of people quietly broke away from the team, mingled among the people watching the excitement, and walked towards the dock in a smoke.

On the dock, Wu Eryong and a few henchmen had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the comer, they immediately greeted them: "Lord Gu, the little one has been waiting for a long time." ”

The leader was none other than Gu Tong, who had only been promoted to the rank of 100 households not long ago, and he turned sideways, revealing the old and young behind him: "These are ......"

Wu Eryong: "The little one knows, the old shopkeeper, the owner of Liu, the little Wu Eryong, the manager of the Lianwu Road Pavilion Wharf, you are polite!" ”

The two Liu family members hurriedly returned the salute with their fists.

Gu Tong: "Is it all arranged?" ”

Wu Eryong: "Don't worry, Lord Gu, everything has been arranged, as long as you get to the water, you will be home, no one will want to touch the old shopkeeper and their cold hair!" ”

Gu Tong: "Don't be careless! ”

Wu Eryong: "Don't worry, Lord Gu, the little ones know the severity!" ”

Gu Tong nodded, turned his head and waved his hand at the frightened old shopkeeper: "Don't worry too much, we will solve the problem here as soon as possible, and you will be able to return home soon." ”

The old shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand and returned the salute: "Little Lao'er doesn't matter, it's just that our family is small... Yang, how is Lord Yang's side? ”

Gu Tong held the palm of the old man's hand and said with a smile: "Don't follow me, Lord Yang knows that he is going to beat me, don't worry about him, I have been with him for more than two years, and I have never seen him do anything that he is not sure of...... You see, others are still in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and he doesn't arrange it properly here? ”

The old shopkeeper relaxed a little and followed his chest: "That's good, that's good......"
