Chapter 15 Chapter 15 and Capture the Thief

Chun Tao's eyes were quick, and she quickly stepped forward, hugged Miss Yuxiang, and said with relief: "Miss, please rest assured, the old man has his own natural appearance, and he will be fine!"

"But ......"

Before Bi Yuxiang continued to speak, she saw the county commander Bi Tianhe, supported by two officials, limping back to the house, Bi Yuxiang suddenly felt pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly ran forward, grabbed her father's arm, and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

The county magistrate waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, my daughter can rest assured, the father is just careless and sprained his foot, it's not a big deal!"

Biyuxiang nodded happily and said, "Oh! I thought it was ......."

"Oh, Miss! I said that the master will be fine, right? It's all because this dog is talking nonsense, so that Miss you have a false alarm!" Chun Tao shouted angrily at the servant who reported the news: "Xiao Fangzi, if you dare to report the news indiscriminately in the future, be careful Sister Chun Tao and me, directly break your dog's legs, do you hear it?"

"Yes...... I'll get out! I'll get out!" Xiao Fangzi was terrified, and hurriedly walked out of the house, and ran away with a puff of smoke.

Biyuxiang was much more relieved at this time, smiled comfortably, and still sat back in her place. Bi Tianhe couldn't help but smile, turned his head, and said to Chu Ping: "Chu Shaoxia, in other places, this county has already made arrangements, but only I am not very confident about the safety of my baby daughter, so this county wants to ask Chu Shaoxia to work hard to protect my daughter, I don't know if Chu Shaoxia is willing to do it for me?"

Chu Ping clasped his hands into fists and said, "Since the county magistrate has already opened the honor, then you should do your best!"

"Okay, good! With Chu Shaoxia's help, the official will be much more at ease!" After that, the county commander Bi Tianhe looked down at Miss Yuxiang, but when he saw that her face was faintly flushed, she just lowered her head and laughed shyly, and immediately understood in her heart, her eyebrows were slightly stretched, she stroked her beard with her hand, laughed secretly, and sighed secretly: "Cough! I, as a father, am really a bit derelict in my duty!" Not only did she fail to protect her daughter, causing her to be bullied by thieves, but she also failed to think about her life's events, but now that Xiang'er is in her prime, it is time to consider finding a good husband for her! I see this Chu Shaoxia, not only has a good character and martial arts, but also looks upright, if he can really become my son-in-law, it will be a beautiful thing! I just don't know, is he married now?"

Just as the four of them were waiting to sit here, they saw two officials, escorting a figure who looked like a squad leader to come here, and said to the county commander: "Lord Qiyu, the subordinates and others were ordered by the adults to inspect around, and found that this Huang San actually wanted to leave the county government with his personal belongings, and what is even more suspicious is that the subordinates actually found three hundred taels of silver from Huang San's baggage, and there is also a flame token from the Mawangzhai of Huolong Mountain, please take a look!"

"Bring it on!"

"Yes!"

Bixian Ling took it over, carefully inspected it, and saw that it was indeed something from the bandit's nest, and suddenly felt anger surging in his heart, and shouted angrily: "Okay, you bold Huang San, I can't imagine that you dare to fornicate with thieves and commit such a bad thing, how can this county spare you! Come on! Temporarily put Huang San in prison, and after taking the thief tonight, behead him and all the thieves together." Hold on!"

"Yes!" the two officials took Huang San down, no matter how he shouted for mercy, it was too late. Bixian Ling faced Chu Ping and said ashamedly: "If Chu Shaoxia hadn't come to tell me in time, I'm afraid that my Bifu would really be harmed by this thief!"

Chu Ping said: "Fortunately, the county commander is wise and wise, and his subordinates have done their best, so they can't let this thief succeed!"

Let's say that the four of them are waiting quietly here, but there are dozens of officials outside, patrolling and searching back and forth, carefully checking the people who enter and exit, and there are also Wang Chun and Geng Jian, two heads, leading dozens of officials to surround the residence of Bixian Ling, patrolling strictly before and after, everyone holds a sword in their hands, supports each other, if there is any movement, everyone informs, and they do it together. After arriving at the third watch, there was still no movement, only to see the patrol outside, the lights were bright, shining on the wall. Bixian Ling kept looking and watching inside the house, without the slightest sleep, Chu Ping also sat quietly in the same place and waited patiently, while the two girls of Biyuxiang and Chun Tao had already fallen asleep on the table.

At the time of the fourth watch, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "The thieves are coming!" Only this sound, everyone was in good spirits, and they were ready to fight, and the people who patrolled outside also stopped, and looked at the high place with the lantern in their hands, and saw that there were people everywhere, and I really don't know how many thieves came. Seeing the arrival of the thieves, everyone shouted in unison, each holding a sword in his hand, ready to start a fight with the group of thieves at any time. Unexpectedly, I heard the thief shouting: "Brothers, don't panic, they are just bluffing, we have already come here, we are bound to rescue the second master, kill Bi Tianhe, the dog official, and avenge the brothers who died under the hands of the dog official!"

"Yes, the eldest brother is right, we want to avenge those brothers who died at the hands of the dog official Bitianhe!" all the thieves shouted in unison, and jumped off the wall one after another, and the two sides fought immediately, only to hear the "clanging" of the blades, and the screams of those who were killed before they died, which continued to reach their ears, frightening the two girls, Jade Xiang and Chun Tao, hugged each other tightly, and their bodies trembled like chaff.

The fight lasted for a while, and somehow, suddenly a thief broke into the house, and shouted at the county commander Bitianhe with a knife: "Dog official, Uncle Ben took your dog's life today!" Saying that, he pounced on Bixian Ling with a knife, Chu Ping quickly stepped forward, kicked the thief out with one kick, and hurriedly drew his sword in his hand and rushed out of the house, guarding the door, fighting with all the thieves, once a thief rushed forward, he immediately died under his sword. Wang and Geng, the two head catchers and the officials were greatly encouraged when they saw Chu Ping so brave, and they came to the momentum, wielding their knives and slashing the thieves, killing the thieves dizzy, crying for their fathers and mothers.

When the rooster crowed and the sun dew in the east, the sound of the fight finally stopped, Wang Chun and Geng Jian caught the head, entered the house, and reported to the county commander Bitian Heyu: "Lord Qiyu, now the lowly people have completely controlled the thieves, a total of 73 thieves have been killed, six have been captured alive, and no one has escaped the net, please make a decision!"

"Okay, very good!" Bixian Ling smiled excitedly, and then asked the two catchers: "Wang and Geng, the two catchers, I don't know what are the casualties of our personnel?"

Seeing that the county magistrate asked about this, Wang and Geng burst into tears and choked up: "Lord Hui, my county brother Ya, a total of 12 people were killed, 20 people were injured to varying degrees, and as for the others, it was not a big problem. ”

Hearing this, the county commander Bi Tianhe's heart suddenly felt sad, and he sighed with tears: "Pity my twelve good brothers, they are in the prime of life, but unfortunately they died tragically in the hands of these thieves, which really makes the county so sad!" Seeing this, Bi Yuxiang hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "Dad, the matter has come to this, don't be sad for you first, according to my daughter, Dad still hurriedly sent down the six captured thieves to avenge the twelve eldest brothers who died tragically!"

"Right...... , my daughter said it very much!" Bi Tianhe rolled up his sleeves and wiped his eyes, and ordered the third class of officials to serve and ascend to the hall, and immediately sent down the thief, Chu Ping also went to the county hall to listen together, leaving only the two girls of Jasper Xiang and Chun Tao, who were still waiting quietly in the back office.

When he came to the county hall, Bixian ordered the main seat, ordered someone to place a seat on the side for Chu Ping, and then issued an order to bring all the six thieves who were captured to the hall.

The work was not large, only to see the officials bring the six thieves who were tied up in turn to the hall, and beat them to their knees in front of the hall, Bixian Ling Tiger eyes widened, and he slapped the shocked wood and shouted: "Bold thief, you wait for the usual days to block the road and rob, burn, kill and rob, and do all kinds of evil, but now you have the audacity to gather a crowd to break into the county government at night and try to rob the death row prisoner Yu Bike, which is even more of a crime! You even have the audacity to plot to assassinate the court officials for the map, which is even more of a crime, and the crime is unforgivable! Now that the matter has been defeated and captured, I don't know if you still have something to say?"

The thief at the head raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "Dog officer, since we have fallen into your hands, we have nothing to say, I only hate the sky and have no eyes, and I can't bless us to achieve this great thing, but I am unwilling." Dog officer, if you want to kill or chop, come on, your Uncle You If I frown, I won't be a good man!"

Bixian Ling realized the identity of this person at this time, and shouted angrily: "Okay, you bold thief You Bicheng, it turns out that all this is from your mastermind! The purpose of your gathering of people here must be to rescue your second brother Yu Bike, right?

"Quick move, quick move!" said the official Qi knocking on the stick.

You Bicheng raised his head and laughed three times, glared at him, and shouted viciously: "Phew, Dog Officer, you fucking want to find out the whereabouts of my third brother from my grandfather's mouth, but you are delusional and daydreaming! Although I You Mou was defeated and captured, I still have a back hand, and they will definitely come to kill you again in the future to avenge me!"

Bixian Ling was angry, trembling more than once, slammed the startled wood, and shouted angrily: "Okay, you bold bandit leader You Bicheng, in fact, you don't say it, this county also knows that your third brother You Bixiao is now staying in the old nest Mawangzhai where you are waiting, and the county also clearly knows that now Namawangzhai is already an empty village, and the people left behind are no more than 20 people, do you say that this county is right?"

When You Bicheng heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and said in amazement: "You, how do you know?"

Bixian Ling laughed and said: "What's so difficult about this! Your Mawangzhai originally had less than 100 people, but now there are nearly 80 people here, how many people can be left there?"

"And what do you want to do?" asked You Bicheng in shock.

Bixian Ling smiled and said: "What do you ask me to do? What do you say? This county knows very well the truth that cutting grass does not eradicate the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, so how can it not take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the bandits forever!"

"Obey!" The officials quickly stepped forward and escorted the six thieves down, together with Yu Bike and Huang San. Unexpectedly, the thief leader You Bicheng still shouted arrogantly: "Dog official, you don't have to be proud, even if we turn into a ghost, we won't let you go, you dog official who deserves to be killed by the sky......" No matter how he abused, Bi Tianhe would never pay attention to him. After the Bitianhe River fell, he slowly walked down the hall, came to Chu Ping, and said, "Chu Shaoxia, I don't know what you think about the punishment of this county?"

Chu Ping clasped his hands into fists and said: "Lord Hui, I think that the county magistrate's punishment is extremely appropriate, not only for the people of Longlai County to remove the worry of banditry, but also effectively maintain the majesty of the court law, the county magistrate's practice is really two birds with one stone!"

Bixian Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "Chu Shaoxia's words are quite pertinent, in this way, the county will be much more at ease." Chu Shaoxia, you have worked hard for this official all night, why don't you go back to the back office with this official and rest well!"

"Thank you for your kindness, there are still important things to do, and you, the county commander, must still have many important matters to deal with, so I won't bother the county commander here, and I will leave here!

Seeing Chu Ping gradually walking away, Bi Tianhe stroked his beard with his hand and sighed: "Oh! Chu Shaoxia is really a chivalrous man with courage and knowledge! He is anxious about what others are anxious about, and what is difficult for others, but in the end he doesn't want to reciprocate, and he doesn't want to add any trouble to others, he is really a rare heroic man of benevolence and righteousness!" As soon as he said this, he suddenly remembered the idea of wanting to recruit him as his son-in-law, but seeing that Chu Ping had left now, he shook his head helplessly, and turned back to the back office.

When I came to Houya, I saw that my daughter was still waiting there, and I really didn't know how to speak. Seeing that her father had returned here alone, Bi Yuxiang hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Dad, why are you the only one who has returned to the back office?" I don't know where is Chu Gongzi now?"

Bi Tianhe saw that his daughter really asked about Chu Ping, and said in a squeaky voice: "Oh......!

Seeing him slurping, Biyuxiang asked a little anxiously: "Dad, tell me quickly, where did Gongzi Chu go?" Dad, if my daughter didn't guess wrong, Gongzi Chu, has he already left the county office?"

Seeing that his daughter had already guessed the truth, Bi Tianhe nodded again and again: "Yes! Chu Shaoxia, he has indeed left." ”

"What, Young Master Chu, is he leaving?" said the Chun Tao girl in astonishment.

Biyuxiang couldn't help but feel a little sad and sad, feeling that her heart was empty, and her big eyes suddenly burst into tears, and she said in a sneering voice: "Chu Gongzi, he really has left, he chose to leave without even saying hello to me......"

Seeing his daughter so sad, Bi Tianhe hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him: "Don't be sad, my daughter, my father will send someone to Wanfu Inn to invite Chu Shaoxia back to you, okay?"

Bi Yuxiang shook her head, and said with a sense of loss: "No need, Dad, since Young Master Chu insists on leaving, why should we force it?

Miss Chun Tao stepped forward and said, "Miss, you wait, Chun Tao, I will go to Wanfu Inn and invite Chu Gongzi back to you!"

Biyuxiang stepped forward quickly, grabbed her cloud sleeve, shook her head slightly and said, "No need, Chun Tao, don't go there to disturb Chu Gongzi." ”

"But Miss, Chun Tao can see that in fact, Miss you like Master Chu, since you like him, why don't you boldly go and show him your heart for him?"

Bi Yuxiang shook her head and said: "Forget it, Chun Tao, can't you see it, the people Chu Gongzi actually have no intention of me, this is just my wishful thinking, so, why should I force it? If you want to complain, you can only complain that Bi Yuxiang is blessed by herself, and it is destined that there is no such fate between me and Chu Gongzi." Chun Tao, after staying up all night, I feel a little sleepy, can you go back to the room with me to rest, okay?"

Miss Chun Tao nodded helplessly, bit her lip, and responded: "Well, Miss, Chun Tao, I'll accompany Miss back to the room to rest!"

Bi Yuxiang turned around and said to her father: "Dad, you have also been tired all night, so hurry up and go back to the room to rest!"

Bi Tianhe nodded again and again: "Okay, daughter, Dad will go back to the room to rest, daughter, you should also go back to the room to rest." Spring pick, take more trouble and take care of Xiang'er for me?"

"You can rest assured, sir, I will definitely take care of Miss Chuntao." Master, you should go back to the room early to rest!" Seeing his daughter return to the room, Bi Tianhe shook his head helplessly, returned to the study alone, and waited for the news of the bandits.

With a turn of the pen, I will talk about Chu Ping again. Let's say that after Chu Ping returned to Wanfu Inn, he took a break. Rest until noon, go downstairs to have some lunch, and the innkeeper will settle the room money and meal money together, and then go back to the room to carry the luggage, walk out of the inn, go straight out of Longlai County, and continue to hurry.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the breakdown below.
