The shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Although this person is dressed in cloth clothes, he acts unreasonably, so he should not be a bandit who is a 'traitor' and a criminal." Da Kui saw that his expression was uncertain, so he smiled and said: "Today's little money is a little heart, I came to Shunyuan to join my family, and I saw that your small shop was doing well, so I wanted to make a living." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled and said: "You are really knowledgeable, my small business has always been good, so it's okay, I'll go to Shunyuan Inn with you." As he spoke, he turned around and shouted into the storefront, "Son, I'll go with this guest officer to talk about something, and I'll be back in a few moments." A 'woman' in the store who was greeting customers turned her head and scolded: "I can't see that I'm busy, come back early." The shopkeeper agreed, and walked towards the Shunyuan Inn with Da Kui.

Walking all the way, Da Kui asked, "I don't know what the store is called?" The shopkeeper smiled: "My surname is Luo, my name is Luo Shicheng, and the neighbors call me Luo Xiangmi." Da Kui laughed and said, "No wonder you can meet me, the relationship has a name for a successful thing." Hehehe.... ”

The two chatted while walking, and arrived at the Shunyuan Inn in a short time.

Da Kui took this Luo Shicheng back to the upper room, and Tian Feng was already standing in front of the 'door' waiting. Da Kui turned back to Luo Shicheng and smiled: "Please wait here, I'll go change my clothes." Luo Shicheng complained again: "No need, let's talk about it." Da Kui ignored it, smiled and pushed the 'door' into the room, and closed the 'door' casually.

Luo Shicheng muttered: "Why are you so eventful, you have to change your clothes to talk about a deal." Tian Feng said coldly when he heard this: "Hugh is rude, if you dare to say more, you will slap your mouth." Luo Shicheng saw that Tian Feng was dressed in silk and Luo was carrying a waist knife, and hurriedly silenced. I couldn't help beating the drum in my heart: "The owner of this asking shop must not be an ordinary person, so forget it." Thinking of this, he turned around to leave, but he didn't want to turn around and bumped into a person.

The person standing behind Luo Shicheng was Yang Xiaohu, at this time Yang Xiaohu was also dressed as a 'waiter' and wearing a waist knife on his waist, seeing that Luo Shicheng was leaving, he stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "How can this place be where you say you will come, and you will leave if you want to go?" Luo Shicheng saw this posture and couldn't help but weaken his legs and begged: "The villain is here to discuss the store with that master, don't be embarrassed." Yang Xiaohu said with a straight face: "Come to talk about business, you might as well leave after talking." ”

Luo Shicheng knew that he had fled south, so he had to stand in front of the 'door' and wait. After a long while, a voice came from the 'door': "Come in." Tian Feng and Yang Xiaohu stretched out their hands to push open the 'door' of the room, and said to Luo Shicheng: "Go in!" As he spoke, one grabbed Luo Shicheng by the shoulder, lifted him into the room, and closed the 'door' with his hand.

Da Kui was dressed in a scarlet official robe, sitting at the table, sipping tea slowly and ignoring Luo Shicheng. When Luo Shicheng saw that Da Kui was actually a big official, he hurriedly knelt down on his knees and kowtowed like pounding garlic: "The adults and the small ones have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, so they are offended." Please be magnanimous and spare the little ones. ”

Da Kui raised his eyes and looked at Luo Shicheng and said: "This official really wants to talk to you about some business, if I ask you something, what you answer, this official will not embarrass you, and will give you twenty taels of silver." If you don't from.... Speaking of this, Da Kui stopped talking, and picked up the teacup and tasted the fragrant tea.

Tian Feng took over the conversation: "If you don't move, you will cut your 'meat' and feed it to the dog." As he spoke, he pulled out his waist knife and put it on Luo Shicheng's shoulder.

Luo Shicheng was so shocked that he was at a loss and said: "There is no 'woman' in the villain's family who remarries, and there is no illegal man in the room." Why should adults be embarrassed?" Da Kui nodded and said, "You don't say that?" Tian Feng shook his wrist behind Luo Shicheng, and the knife of 'Huh' actually picked the bun on Luo Shicheng's head, and suddenly the wisps of green silk fell.

Luo Shicheng was frightened and hurriedly said: "The little one knows everything, and he has no end to it." Da Kui's heart fell, and he nodded at Tian Feng and said, "Take a pen and paper to record it in detail." Tian Feng put away the waist knife and gave up his hand, entered the inner hall, took the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and returned to the table and sat down. Da Kui asked Luo Shicheng with satisfaction: "This official also asks you, how did the Shunyuan Ya's 'gate' drive the refugees out of the city, and how did they distribute grain and rice on weekdays? ”

When Luo Shicheng heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "This villain doesn't dare to say it, once he says it, the villain's family will not escape the doom." Yang Xiaohu said angrily behind Luo Shicheng: "If you don't say it, I will cut you with a thousand knives now." Luo Shicheng had no choice but to beg: "If the villain says it, the adult must not say it to the villain." Da Kui nodded.

Luo Shicheng said it truthfully one by one, it turned out that since Lord Meng was deposed, this Liang Youcai sat in the mansion of Shunyuan City. In order to commend his exploits to the Ming court, he used the city defense soldiers and horses to drive the affected people in the city out of Shunyuan City, but anyone who did not obey was killed.

Since he came to Shunyuan City, all those who came to buy grain had to hold the shopping documents issued by Defu Ji. Large-scale transactions were written documents, and ordinary people only had notes, and the granary supervisor relied on these documents to determine the amount of grain sold. In addition, all the rice and grain shops in Shunyuan were forcibly closed down, and all the rice and grain were closed at low prices.

Luo Shicheng said here: "The villain only knows this, let the villain go." Da Kui said: "Since this is the case, come and draw a confession." Luo Shicheng hurriedly shook his hand and said: "The villain doesn't dare to draw a charge, the villain is just a grass people, I don't want to get involved in officialdom grievances, I beg the adults to let the villain go." ”

Da Kui sighed and said: "Hey, this official has always been kind-hearted, you don't want to draw a sentence and cut off your tongue and don't have to talk more in the future." After that, he motioned to Yang Xiaohu and said, "Don't wait any longer, he won't say it." Yang Xiaohu didn't say a word, stretched out his hand and pulled out the knife, and his left arm circled Luo Shicheng's neck and made a gesture to move.

Luo Shicheng wailed: "The adults spare their lives, and the villains are willing to draw charges." Da Kui joked: "Don't be reluctant." Luo Shicheng's head shook like a 'wave' drum: "Not reluctantly, not reluctantly, the villain is willing to draw a charge." Da Kui nodded and said, "Well, that's good." As soon as he said that, he shook his head at Tian Feng, and Tian Feng understood. Walking to Luo Shicheng's side with the transcript and cinnabar ink, Luo Shicheng did not dare to be disobedient, and pressed his fingerprints one by one according to Tian Feng's instructions.

Da Kui took the documents handed over by Tian Feng and read them one by one and said, "Okay, you don't have to be afraid, there is something to be done for you." Saying that, he said to Tian Feng: "Give him twenty taels of silver and tell him to leave." Tian Feng nodded and agreed, and took twenty taels of silver to Luo Shicheng.

Luo Shicheng took the silver and said with a bitter face: "The villain is afraid that he will have a life to take the money and not to 'spend'." Da Kui was shocked and asked: "Why is this?" Luo Shicheng said: "This Shunyuan City is full of Liang Youcai's eyeliner, once today's incident leaks, the villain's family's 'life' will be difficult to protect." Da Kui said with relief: "Don't be afraid, you can go back to do your business with peace of mind, and come to this official if you have anything." Luo Shicheng looked at Da Kui's heart and said, 'My head fell off, who to go to. Even though he thought so, he never dared to say it.

"The villain retreated", Luo Shicheng took the silver and bowed back, Yang Xiaohu stretched out his hand to give him the 'door', and Luo Shicheng fled out of the 'door'.
