Chapter 7: Hunted in the middle of the night

Raise your eyes and look around.The house here is not big.The front yard is two rows of wings.Facing the main hall.At this time, in the dead of night.But I saw that the left wing room was still lit.The light was revealed by the lattice window.Yes.Master Ma did not return late at night.The family must be waiting for the lights.So the lights have not been turned off.

The study is in the backyard.So you need to pass through the main hall.Da Kui doesn't dare to walk blatantly.The left courtyard wall is connected with the wing room, but it is just right to pass the main hall.

Da Kui cats rushed straight to the left courtyard wall, reached the root of the wall and stretched out his feet on the wall a little, with the help of the upper vertical stretched out his hand to grab the side eaves of the wing house, the figure 'swinged' on the wall, and then jumped up to the roof of the wing house.

Although it is a fast movement, it does not make the slightest sound, along the surface of the room lightly over the ridge of the hall house, looking at the backyard is already clear at a glance, facing a 'fine' to the attic, the courtyard in the green bamboo rockery is also very elegant, the right side of the wall two wings, presumably is where the study is located.

Da Kui jumped down, his feet fell to the ground, and he wiped out to the right side of the room, reached the root of the window, reached out and lifted the window sash, and his body entered vertically.

How do you know that as soon as Da Kui's feet hit the ground, "Meow~~." A scream, Da Kui jumped up in a hurry, stretched out his hand to hook the beam, turned over, and looked down at the beam, a small gray-black 'colored' figure flashed and disappeared.

Da Kui couldn't help but curse secretly: 'Unload the young girl, there is a cat in the study.' This change made Da Kui break out in a cold sweat, but he stepped on the cat's tail when he came in.

Da Kui was not sure if the cat's scream could attract people, and he didn't dare to delay at the moment, and he jumped off the beam of the house and raised his eyes to look again.

There is a desk in the inner room, and the four treasures of the study room are complete, and there is a carved chair of the Taishi behind the table, and there are four pairs of banners and calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall behind the chair.

Da Kui looked to the left again.A pair of bookshelves against the wall are full of books and classics.Presumably Master Ma is also a person who reads a lot of books on weekdays.

Da Kui took three steps and made two steps to the bookshelf, stretched out his hand to count the second grid and counted the third book, immediately took it down casually, and immediately stuffed it into his arms.

Just about to walk away.' Someone approached the study with a lantern. Da Kui dodged behind the 'flower' shelf and watched the changes.

Two people came in at the opening of the room, but they were all dressed as subordinates.

"Brother Hei, how can someone be in the study so late, don't be surprised, isn't it just a cat."

"The master's 'flower' cats all sleep in the study, and there must be something going on in the study when they run out in the rain tonight."

"It doesn't mean that someone has come to the study."

"You're blind.' If you don't come and check it, I'll lose my hair when the master comes back."

The two of them didn't say anything more, holding the lantern and began to look around.

Da Kui's mind couldn't help but turn sharply.In desperation, he could only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor.He took off the black scarf on his face.Stretched out his hands and hooked the corners of his mouth with his thumbs.The index finger grabbed the eyelids under his eyes and stretched out his tongue as much as he could.He actually made a grimace.I remember that when I was young, it was quite effective to frighten people like this.Especially if you make a grimace in the light in the dark night.The effect is especially great.

Da Kui was just getting ready, the light was already shining, and Da Kui stuck his head out through the light.

Under the light, a head stretched out from behind the 'flower' frame.The eyes were whiter and less black and bloodshot.With a bloody mouth, the tongue stretched out from the elder.Like a powerful ghost who 'wants' to choose people and devour.At this moment, it is the middle of the night, who is not afraid.

"Gross~." One of the housekeepers fainted in fright, and the other was very bold, and the water was dripping down the 'trousers' pipe.

The last of the housekeepers fainted in horror as they let out a low chuckle in their throats.

Da Kui grimaced and walked out of the 'flower' shelf, flashed and walked out of the study, went around to the side of the room, kicked the wall, and crossed the courtyard wall in a flash.

Huang Ying has been pacing in the room nervously since she went back to the room to change her clothes and go out of the 'door'. She is worried about Da Kui's safety. Even if she knows that Da Kui has a peerless martial arts, she is also nervous in her heart.

When I was feeling uneasy, a figure flashed into the opening of the room' door.Huang Ying was startled.Then I was overjoyed.The person who came in was not Da Kui, but the one who came in.At this time, Da Kui was soaked and looked embarrassed.But his face was happy'.

Huang Ying hurriedly asked, "How are things going?"

Da Kui laughed and said, "It's such a trivial matter." As he spoke, he took out the account book from his bosom and handed it to Huang Ying.

Huang Ying casually put the ledger on the table and said, "There is hot water in the room, quickly change the wet clothes, so as not to catch a cold."

Da Kui was cold and hungry, but his heart was full of warmth, he went into the inner room, took a shower, changed into his official clothes, and then came out and picked up the account book on the table and opened it to read. Huang Ying put away the clothes that Da Kui had changed, walked out and asked with a smile: "You don't know much. As he spoke, he folded his clothes and put them on the round stool beside him, and then rubbed his hands on his body and took the ledger.

Da Kui smiled: "How can you wipe your hands on your body as the wife of the official now, you have to get rid of this 'problem' in the future."

Huang Ying pouted her cherry lips while looking at the account book, and she looked unconcerned, but she exclaimed in an instant: "They send 1,000 quintals of 'private' salt to Raozhou every month, and the dirty silver they get is 1,600 taels." Although Huang Ying was exclaiming, Da Kui couldn't help but be puzzled, only 1,600 taels a month.

The spies reported that Pan Ke had embezzled millions of taels in the past year. In order to seek the truth, Da Kui hurriedly went into the inner room and found a small box from the side of the 'bed'.

Da Kui returned to the outer room and put the box on the table.

It turned out that the signature read: Yin Panke, the governor of Raozhou, sold 'private' salt in one year, although he was more than half a million taels of silver and greedy for ink, and the four words "although he was more than half a year old" on the signature were vague for unknown reasons, especially "although he was more than half a hundred years old", there was no mark.

In this way, Da Kui mistakenly thought that this Raozhou Mansion Yin had embezzled millions of taels in a year.

Seeing this, Huang Ying couldn't help asking, "What's so annoying to you?"

Da Kui has a good habit, no matter how upset he is, he is as soft as ever to Huang Ying.

Huang Ying heard this, pacing back and forth indoors, holding Qianqian's 'jade' finger and carefully calculating for a while, she came to Da Kui and said: "Although this Pan Ke is greedy for ink and has not reported so much, Raozhou is the place where the salt affairs of Jiangxi Province are scattered, and the people of the province have more than two million people, and each person has two dollars of salt per day.

Huang Ying paused for a moment and said: "Raozhou only enters the city 1,000 quintals every month.

Da Kui was dumbfounded when he heard this, and it wasn't until Huang Ying finished saying that Da Kui slapped his big 'leg' and praised: "Oh, my daughter-in-law, you're really clever, why didn't I want to be so detailed."

Huang Ying smiled arrogantly: "You know how powerful Mrs. Ben is." As he spoke, he raised his head.

Da Kui nodded and praised: "Mrs. Lan Xinhuizhi, I Zhang Dakui can't regret it.

Huang Ying smiled when she heard this: "It's beyond reach." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and tapped it lightly on Da Kui's forehead.

Da Kui laughed and said, "I can't reach it, I can't reach it, I still have a learned lady." Da Kui paused before he said, "I'll go and ask about the case, see what progress has been made, and sit down in the room, if there is nothing else, rest early."

Huang Ying nodded obediently, and Fu walked to the 'door' again and picked off the oil-paper umbrella hanging on the wall.

Da Kui walked to the 'door' and took the paper umbrella, smiled at Huang Ying, and then went out of the 'door' to take the umbrella and braved the night rain to go to the front house.

Da Kui came to the front mansion hall, and his subordinates presented the confessions of Li Mazi and Master Ma. Da Kui watched them one by one, and couldn't help but admire Huang Ying even more. The number on the confession was about the same as Huang Ying's calculation.

Da Kui couldn't help laughing after reading the confession: "Come here, take Li Mazi and Master Feng into one place, leave five people to guard, and the rest of the people will change their clothes and follow me to arrest the culprit overnight, and I will wipe them all out tonight."

Everyone around him took the order and turned around and left, and they all went to change their clothes and prepare to go.

When the forty-five relatives came to the hall with their own clothes and knives, Da Kui looked around at everyone and raised his voice: "Everyone, tonight, I will go with me to arrest Yin Panke, the governor of Raozhou, and Fu Tailai, the political envoy of Jiangxi Yan." Da Kui immediately ordered: "Hong Wu listens to the order."

Hong Wu took a step forward and shouted, "The subordinates are here."

Da Kui said: "You take thirty people to capture Fu Tailai, if you resist, don't hesitate to kill."

Hong Wu received the order, ordered all the people, turned around and led the people to hula and run out of the hall.

Da Kui then ordered: "The rest of the people will follow me to arrest Pan Ke and set off." Da Kui gave an order, strode out of the hall first, and was about to run to the big 'door' of the mansion, but saw Huang Ying holding a paper umbrella and carrying a sword from the back house.

"Husband, wait." Huang Ying ran to Da Kui and handed over the Longquan Sword, didn't care about wiping away the rain from his face, and Wen Yan said, "Be careful in everything." The words revealed worry, Da Kui's heart warmed, and then he took the sword and didn't stop again, and led people out of the Wu Mansion all the way to the west of the city in the rain.

There was a thunder and lightning flash in the sky, and the rain poured down like a torrent.

The people of Da Kui rushed forward by the light of thunder and light, and the sound of the wind and rain and the sound of footsteps treading water on the long street became one.

Da Kui waved his hand, and the two rushed up the stone steps to the 'door' porch, and reached out to pat the vermilion lacquer big 'door'. After a while, I heard a human voice coming from inside the door: "Poke Da Mu Niangxi (Jiangxi swear words) ......."

"Open the 'door' and open the 'door'. The two attendants shouted so much.' But there is no meaning of opening the door.

Da Kui shouted, "Get out of the way." After that, he ran two steps and jumped up, and a heart-piercing 'leg' in the air was kicked on the big 'door' of vermilion.
