Chapter 402, Taoyuan Inn

Tang Jiusheng killed the woman with a sword and let the man with the green hat ride on his horse and escape, completely unaware that he had fallen into a catastrophe. Seeing that the danger had been lifted, Li Fugui of the Horse Gang thanked Tang Jiusheng and the three of them, said goodbye to the three, took the horse team on the road, and galloped away in the direction of the county town.

The fat man and Xiahou Lingyu dismounted and checked the things on the three killers, and in addition to the silver tickets and other items, they also accidentally found the waist card of the Great Xia Ting Mansion on the red hat woman. Xiahou Lingyu didn't know anything about the affairs in the rivers and lakes and temples, handed the ebony waist card to Tang Jiusheng, and saw that there were no outsiders around, so he asked curiously: "Brother Tang, what is the Courtyard Mansion?"

Tang Jiusheng was holding the ebony waist card of the Tingfu in his hand, his face was gloomy, the reason why he let go of the green hat man just now was to use him to fish, but he didn't expect him to be from the Tingfu. Tang Jiusheng said expressionlessly: "The court mansion of Great Xia is equivalent to the Dongwei of our Great Shang Kingdom, and it is an intelligence and killer agency. It's just that I don't understand why the people from the court mansion came to Jiannan Road to intercept and kill me, isn't this self-defeating?"

The fat man sneered, "it, the soldiers will cover the water and the earth, who is afraid of whom?"

Tang Jiusheng glanced at the fat man, stretched out his hand and flicked a chestnut on his head, "Fat brother, what do you want to say about you, you know how to fight and kill all day long! Don't you think there is a problem here? Dongwei should have been incompatible with the Tingfu, but recently, the people of the Tingfu have been frequently engaged in big business activities, but Dongwei has been sitting idly by, what does this mean? Either Dongwei is casting a long line to catch big fish, or there are people in Dongwei who are colluding with Tingfu!"

The fat man snorted and said stupidly: "Fat man, I am a sincere person, but I don't have the twists and turns in the stomachs of you scholars, and I have to think about everything in detail! The fat man only knows that if they provoke the fat man, the fat man will have to fight back! If you are in a hurry, you will die in a hurry!"

Tang Jiusheng suddenly smiled bitterly, "I didn't want to kill anyone, but suddenly I had anger on my body, and I felt a little better after killing two people! ”

Xiahou Lingyu looked at Tang Jiusheng, her eyebrows and eyes were full of admiration, "Brother Tang, your martial arts are so high! The woman wearing the red hat is not low, she is standing on the threshold of the first-grade martial arts realm, but you easily snatched her sword with just one move, and stabbed her to death!"

Tang Jiusheng shook his head and frowned: "I turned on the Energy Storage Pill is just Wu Xuan, it's not really that much taller than her, I'm very confused, when I had anger just now, I just wanted to kill people, and at that moment, my strength doubled, if I fought normally, how could I defeat and kill her after five moves." Another thing I wonder is why the people of the Big Horse Gang have the strength to fight, but why do they want to retreat?"

The fat man laughed, "Old Tang, you don't know that you are suspicious all day long, if I were Li Fugui, I would also go back, Li Fugui just brought a group of brothers out to beg for food, and there is no deep hatred, why do you want to live and die against each other? Even if you rush up and kill four people wearing hats, you will inevitably lose more than half of yourself, which is completely unnecessary!"

Tang Jiusheng didn't bother to think about it anymore, and turned around and said, "Let's dig a pit and bury the three of them, this corpse wilderness is not very good, yes."

When people see a corpse, they must report it to the magistrate, how can you ask the magistrate to investigate this kind of headless case?"

So Tang Jiusheng and Xiahou Lingyu dug a big pit on the side of the road, and the fat man carried the people, and quickly disposed of the bodies of these three people. Tang Jiusheng picked up the sword of the woman with the red hat and took a closer look, this was an ancient sword, the hilt of the sword was inlaid with a red gem, and the sword body was engraved with a looming seal character, Tang Jiusheng looked at it for a long time, and finally saw it clearly, it was the word Honghuang.

Tang Jiusheng put away the sword, turned over on his horse, and said with a smile: "Let's go!" But I suddenly remembered one thing, more than half a year ago when I first arrived in Jiannan Road, I met a Fushun Dart Bureau, their general number is in Jianzhou, they have a boss named Yu Desheng, this Yu Desheng turned out to be the housekeeper of the little junior sister's family, and deceived many people of money under the banner of the Shui family, the Shui family returned the money on his behalf, looking for him everywhere, and later learned that he fled to Jianzhou to be the boss of the dart game, I wanted to clean him up, but I have been busy taking care of him, and I have to make up for him when I come back!"

Xiahou Lingyu said disdainfully: "What's the big deal about a dart bureau boss? You are such a big prince, you directly send someone to confiscate his family property, and then slaughter him! If it's inconvenient, I'll do it with the dead fat man, and promise to leave no chickens and dogs killed by their family!" The fat man claimed yes on the side.

Tang Jiusheng looked at Xiahou Lingyu and the fat man, and said with a smile and a smile: "If you two don't get together as a family, it's a pity!

Xiahou Lingyu and the fat man glanced at each other, and said in unison: "It's better for us to be brothers!" Tang Jiusheng smiled slightly, these were two men and women who looked down on each other.

Tang Jiusheng clamped the belly of the big white horse between his legs, "Drive!" The big white horse galloped away, Xiahou Lingyu and the fat man followed, and soon, the official road could only see smoke and dust all the way.

After the three of them left, there was about a tea time, and a black-clothed masked man with a sword on his back came to the pit where the three people were buried, looking at the new soil that had just been filled in a silent daze, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "Tang Jiusheng, you bastard! You killed my senior sister and brother, I must go and ask the master to avenge them!"

Walking more than 40 miles forward, it is Taoyin County of Jianzhou County, it is said that this county is good at producing peaches, and the peach trees are shady, so it is named. There are also people in Taoyin County who have sued the county guard, and they must be investigated. Tang Jiusheng slowed down his horse's speed and muttered to himself: "According to the law of great commerce, even if the civil sue official wins, he may be punished, how far do you have to force these grass people to sue the official!"

On the side, Xiahou Lingyu asked puzzledly: "Why? This is too unreasonable, even if you win, you still have to be punished?"

Tang Jiusheng smiled bitterly: "It's unreasonable, but this can curb the people from suing officials to a great extent." Moreover, once the Great Commercial Law confirms the crime of the people's accusations against the officials, the officials will often be even more miserable, and the Taizu of this dynasty has stripped the skin and grass of the abusive officials, and of course, there are not a few who were executed by Ling Chi!"

The fat man stuck out his tongue, shook his head and said: "Fortunately, let's reincarnate well, the fat man really doesn't want to be a farmer who farms! The fat man can't farm, he doesn't like to read, he can only dance with guns and sticks, and he doesn't seem to have any other hobbies except fighting!"

Tang Jiusheng was white and fat

You don't love money, don't you love beautiful women?"

The fat man sneered: "Old Tang, your chatter is very boring! As long as you are a man, who doesn't love money and beauties? Fat man, I heard that even those fathers-in-law in the harem love beautiful women!"

The three of them rode horses on the official road and walked like this, chatting all the way, and found that there were large peach forests on the side of several villages on the roadside, and it was indeed a county town famous for growing peaches. In the afternoon, the three of them finally arrived at Taoyin County. This Taoyin county town is not large, with a population of more than 40,000 and low city walls, and it is not a county in Jianzhou County.

When entering the city, the five guards at the gate of the city saw that the three of them were riding tall horses and carrying weapons, and then looked at the silk clothes they were wearing, they were definitely the sons and daughters of the rich and noble families, and they were very likely to come from the direction of Luye City, so they were afraid to stop them, so they let the three of them enter the city.

Tang Jiusheng looked at the five soldiers, and couldn't help sighing, there is a rule in the Great Commercial Law, civilians are not allowed to carry standard weapons on the street at will, and they can only carry weapons on the street if they have a weapon license at the official government, but the five soldiers at the gate of the city did not dare to ask when they saw three people carrying weapons, which was obviously inaction.

The upper beam is not crooked, Taoyin Zhixian County must be responsible, Jianzhou County Shouye Tengjiao is responsible, and the Jingluo who sits in Luye City is naturally inseparable.

After the three of them entered the city, they found an inn called Taoyuan to stay. Xiao Er diligently led the horses of the three to the stable, and the graceful proprietress of the inn saw the outfit of the three and concluded that the three were definitely children of the family, so she personally came out to entertain them. Although Tang Jiusheng's face was not as good as his own appearance, he was also unusually handsome, and the proprietress who claimed to be Qiu Tao saw Tang Jiusheng's handsome face, and she was even more smiling and carefully serving.

Tang Jiusheng was lying on the counter and flirting with the proprietress Qiu Tao for a while, and inquired about several wealthy families in this county, and knew that the famous Liu Chenli lived in the northeast corner of the county. The reason why I inquired about the situation of Liu Chenli's family was because Liu Chenli's family had sued the county guard many times before, and I heard that Liu Chenli was also retaliated against by the county guard's yamen.

Liu Chenli has a daughter, named Liu Qiongying, sixteen years old, as long as a flower and jade, originally married to Yang Tongwei, the second son of Yang Jianjia, another wealthy family in this county, but Ye Tengjiao heard that Liu Qiongying was beautiful, and sent someone to Taoyin County to forcibly snatch Liu Qiongying back to Jianzhou as a concubine.

When the team came to Liu Chenli's house, Liu Chenli's eldest son Liu Chengqiang was not convinced, and wanted to protect his sister, so he started with the team that came to rob relatives. As a result, the two evil slaves in Ye Tengjiao's family were beaten to death and injured, which caused trouble, and was chased and killed by the people guarding the yamen of the county until there was no way to go to the sky, and there was no way to enter the ground, only to escape to Xicui Mountain to be a mountain bandit, Liu Chenli was frightened, infected in bed, and died half a year ago.

The Liu family now only has the second son Liu Chenggong barely maintaining the door at home, and he was forced to sell two grain stores and a silk village, and lost Ye Tengjiao thousands of taels of silver. The Liu family was not satisfied, and went to the Jingluo Yamen to sue the county guard for robbing the people's daughters, but to no avail, and let people control Beijing, but it was still fruitless. The Liu family has to face harassment from time to time by the county guard yamen, and now it is in the middle of the family, and it has long since lost its former prosperity, and it is almost impossible to sell the house handed down from the ancestors.
