The soldiers surrounded the carriage of the two angels, and Chen Lu dismounted and walked over, seeing that it was a woman in her forties. She was disheveled, kneeling in the muddy water, wailing.

Chen Lu said, "That woman, if you have anything to tell me, you stand up first." ”

But the woman would not stand up and say, "Poor woman, my daughter is dying." "Incoherent.

Chen Lu said: "Don't worry, say slowly, what's wrong with your daughter, she is going to die, how can we help you?"

Ke Shi still cried, just one word, crying, crying until the sky was dark, the sun was dark, and he cried and fainted in the muddy water.

Chen Lu asked the bystanders if they knew this woman, and everyone nodded. Chen Lu asked her why she was crying so much, what happened to her daughter, and the people were silent.

At this time, an elderly man walked out, saluted Chen Lu, and said, "Master of the Heavenly Empire, the little old man knows a little. ”

Chen Lu saw that everyone knew these two people, and he was relieved and knew that nothing would happen, but this was not a solution. Ordered Han Liu'er to bring both of them back to the station. When he arrived at the conference hall, Li Da gave up his seat, he heard it clearly in the car just now, and let the old man sit. Xizi served tea, Ke Shi had already woken up, still kneeling.

Li Da saw that the old man was trembling, knowing that he was very nervous, and said, "Old man, Gui Geng?"

"Seventy-two. ”

"Are you Han?"

"Xiao Lao'er doesn't know what a Han person is, Xiao Lao'er is a Khitan (Han Chinese). ”

The three envoys glanced at each other, the Khitans were from the Celestial Empire, the title of the Great Liao State, and they were actually Han people. Li Da just wanted him to relax and said, "Your surname?"

"The compound surname is Wei Chi, and the single name is a dragon character. ”

"Ao, this is the surname of the Central Plains, how did you get here?"

"Back to the official master, our ancestors have been here with Emperor Dezong for more than 200 years, and half of the ten miles and eight villages are like this. ”

Chen Lu understood that this was the relocation of people from the Central Plains when Yelu Dashi of Liao Dezong established the Western Liao Kingdom here. The capital of Western Liao was still far from here, and it was destroyed by the previous dynasty.

Li Da asked: "Then you are also from the Celestial Empire?"

"Yes. ”

"What's going on with this Keshi?"

"Back to the official, her daughter is indeed going to die. Then he talked about it.

The customs of Liaodong and Jianzhou are also popular here, and everyone believes in Manchu religion. Ke's husband's family name is Sun, and his daughter's name is Suizi, and she was promised to the son of Imam Wuji.

The parents on both sides disagreed, but Wuji's son didn't do it, he wanted to die or live, and if he didn't marry Sun Suizi, Wuji had no choice, so he used to say that he would go to the woman's house to propose marriage, and almost stepped through the threshold, and the woman agreed. The two families got married and got engaged.

The Khitan people pay attention to the engagement ceremony, and the Wuji family does a lot of work, and the ceremony is relatively successful, but it rains lightly that day, and the man's family feels unlucky, and they are relieved to see nothing. The woman's man went back the same day.

In the early morning of the next day, more than a dozen people went to Wuji's house, arrested Suizi, and told Ke that his uncle was dead, and there were no one at the third watch. The imam saw it and said that Sun's Suizi was a husband, Kefu, and this is called Maimen. The woman's family was dumbfounded at the time, and before they could react, the person had already been escorted away.

In fact, there is also this evil custom in the Central Plains, everyone is far away from this woman, and no one dares to marry her in his life, so he has to accompany the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for a lifetime. There is no most ruthless, only more ruthless, it is this Manchu religion, such a woman is a demon, a witch, she must be killed and hanged, otherwise it will bring disaster to the two clansmen, this is the consensus of all Manchu religions, even the government and the institute do not ask too much.

Li Da had heard of it, and it seemed that there was also such a custom in Jiangnan, but he hadn't heard of killing people, treating human life as a mustard, as an envoy of the Celestial Empire, he couldn't ignore it, and asked: "When will the execution be carried out." ”

Yu Chilong said: "Shuo Ri or Wangri, which day is close to use." ”

Li Da thought, today is 30, tomorrow is the first day of the first month of March, Shuo Ri, said: "That means tomorrow?"

Ke Shi was in a semi-comatose state, and when he heard this, he suddenly shouted: "My Suizi, save my Suizi, she is not a demon barrier, Lord Qingtian." ”

Li Da waved his hand and looked at Chen Lu. Chen Lu knew that this matter was more difficult, and if he didn't get it right, he would be burned. However, if you don't save yourself from this situation, how can you say it? If you bring it up yourself, what will others think of you, so you have to bite the bullet and say, "Your Excellency, I'll deal with this matter." ”

Li Da is overjoyed, just waiting for you Chen Zicheng to say this! In fact, Li Da saw it from the beginning that Chen Lu was not very enthusiastic about this matter. But except for Chen Lu, no one else can control this matter at all, and others do not understand their customs and habits, and the language is not so fluent.

Chen Lu asked Ke Shi to stand up and said, "Don't worry, the Celestial Empire is in charge of you." Yu Chilong, are you related to Sun Ke's family?"

"Nope. ”

"Then why are you helping her?"

Xiao Lao'er didn't want to help her, for fear of getting burned. At that time, at the East Gate, so many people who watched the excitement were reluctant to stretch out their hands, in fact, they all knew that this was not necessarily a magic barrier. The little old man was angry, so he came over to help. ”

Chen Lu said: "You are an upright person, I will not let you run for nothing." Sixth son, give him consistent money. ”

Han Liu'er went out for a while, walked in with the copper coins that were always yellow and clear, handed them to Yu Chilong, he accepted them after a while, and left.

Chen Lu said: "Leave the address, and ask for advice when needed." Then he asked, "What about your man, why didn't he come to us?"

"He's sick and can't move. ”

"Have you ever approached the Counseling Office?"

"I looked for it, but they couldn't do anything, and said that I should beg my in-laws. My lord, you are officials of the Celestial Empire, and those who ask questions must listen to you, so please make us the masters. I am also from the Celestial Empire, and my grandfather has only been here from Xinzhou for more than 40 years. ”

Everyone glanced at Li Xian, this is the township party, pure. Li Xian had already heard the accent, and he still had the taste of Xinzhou, and nodded at Chen Lu.

Chen Lu said: "Don't go back first, I'll check it, and I'll ask you when I go back." After speaking, he took Han Liu'er and a few personal soldiers and went straight to the Institute.

The officers of the Counsellor's Office were just about to go home, when they saw the officials of the Celestial Empire coming, they hurried into the detention room, and the counsellor came over to give a salute.

Chen Lu got straight to the point and asked again, and Li Wen said in Mongolian: "Sun Keshi has looked for us several times, this is a matter of teaching, and it is difficult for Li Wen to interfere." The humble post also sent someone to tell Wuji, don't be reckless, and deal with it properly. If we provoke a popular uprising, we will do what he is doing, and he agrees very well. ”

Chen Lu was very angry, why did you even say that it was handled properly, and you were about to kill someone, but it was still appropriate! So he asked coldly: "My old man doesn't understand, killing people is considered to be properly handled? What do you mean by this is Wang Fa?"

Li Wen saw that this messenger was angry, and said carefully: "The messenger is angry, and we can't help it." annoyed the Manchurian religion and dared to end our little yamen. ”
