said that the eldest brother Zuo Guangji sent Guangdou with tears, telling him to take care of his life on the road, and to see that the emperor should seriously defend himself and not be too upright. There is no need to worry about family affairs, and his brothers take care of them.

At this time, I saw a family member panting and squeezing into the crowd, grabbed Zuo Guangji and said:

"Uncle, it's not good, the old lady is gone!"

Zuo Guangji heard the change in color, squeezed into the crowd again, and said to Guangdou:

"Brother won't send it, you be careful!"

After saying that, he gave money to the knight and asked them to take care of Guangdou along the way, he didn't dare to tell Guangdou the bad news of his father's death, for fear that he would be heartbroken. He hurried out of the crowd and ran home.

The news that Ti rode to Zuofu to arrest people spread, and the county seat was really empty, and they all came to see Guangdou off. At a glance, stretching for more than 20 miles, there are black and oppressive people, kneeling on the side of the street and the roadside, some crying bitterly, some crying out, and some holding incense burners. Some put a basin of water in front of them, and some held a bronze mirror with both hands, which made Zuo Guangdou very moved. The clear water, the mirror is the highest praise given to him by his father and fellow villagers - clear as water, clear as a mirror. There were three or five stout butchers carrying a scarecrow with Wei Zhongxian's name on it. Seeing that Ti rode coming, they took out the pig-killing knife together, and stabbed the scarecrow while spitting at it. When the horsemen saw this, they were furious, but they didn't dare to arrest them. There were also a few old mothers-in-law, each holding a copper basin, and watched Nati ride in, knocking on the slap together, and shouting loudly: "Lord Zuo is wronged! Lord Zuo is wronged—" There was also a group of children, who saw Nati riding in, and threw the muddy and rotten eggs over, making it difficult for Ti Qi to distinguish his face, but he was helpless, just hate.

Walking out of the west gate, Zuo Guangdou saw Xu Congzhi rushing over and said:

"Brother Zuo, let Xu give you a ride. ”

Zuo Guangdou said:

"Lord Xu, you have official business, please don't send it. I'm just careful. ”

An older Tiqi shouted:

"Lord Xu, you are an official of the imperial court, and you dare to protect the Qin criminals, so you are not afraid of dismissal! I will arrest Zuo Guangdou by the holy decree and the order of Gonggong Wei, what are you - go aside!"

When Xu Congzhi heard that there was a warrant from Wei Zhongxian, he hated:

"The eunuch party is tyrannical, and there is no daylight! Brother Zuo has arrived in the capital, you must be careful!"

Zuo Guangdou said:

"The future of this future is uncertain, but the eldest husband is not only a dignified birth, but also a dignified death! You are the official of my hometown parents, so I will take care of the family affairs. ”

Xu Congzhi generously said:

"Brother Zuo, you are so honest and honest, but you are wearing shackles and locks, the emperor is blind and blind, what else do I have to wear in my seven-grade official skin, let's go!"

After saying that, he angrily took off the black yarn, took off his official uniform, and threw it to Ti Qi together, saying:

"You wait to give it to Wei Zhongxian, saying that Tongcheng County has ordered Wei Zhongxian to hang up the official seal. Let him send a godson and a godson. ”

After that, he turned to Zuo Guangdou and said:

"Brother Ren, I hope you will go to turn evil into good fortune and take care of your life. I also packed my luggage, rolled up the bunk and went back to my hometown in Shandong. ”

After speaking, he gave Zuo Guangdou a salute, separated the crowd, and walked away with his head held high.

Seeing Xu Congzhi like this, Tiqi grinded his teeth with hatred, but he didn't dare to go against the anger of the people, and let him go. He took Zuo Guangdou forward and stepped on Xu Congzhi's clothes.

On the West Road, the people of the villages on both sides also rushed to hear the news, knelt down to the side of the road, burned incense and bowed. Zuo Guangdou walked forward, followed by the people, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and the tail end could not be seen. Zuo Guangdou thanked him from time to time, please don't send it to the villagers, how can anyone listen, send it directly to the trailer river, more than 30 miles away from the city, Zuo Guangdou stopped walking, turned around and pleaded again and again, and everyone stopped. Zuo Guangdou was in a flail, unable to kneel and bow, bowed a few times to the villagers, and then walked forward with Tiqi. Seeing that the sun was gradually sinking in the west, Ti Qi urged him to go quickly, saying that he had rushed to Tao Chong Post to rest and sleep.

I had just crossed a mountain ridge with a pine forest in front of me. The official road passed by. Ti rode to the middle, and several big men jumped out of the forest with a pop, and the man at the head was eight feet long, so burly, with a face like a heavy jujube, a full beard, his eyes were round, and he held a bright and dangling broad-faced waist knife. I saw that the big man made a move, and with a roar, two or three hundred strong men jumped out of the forest, each holding a knife, spear, axe and other killing tools. The road was tightly blocked.

The big man stepped forward and said:

"We plant the trees, and we open the roads. If you want to get through this, leave the money to buy the road. Otherwise, don't think about it!"

The four Ti rode forward, sword in hand, and shouted:

"Bold grasshopper, I'll be ordered to arrest the Qin criminal, get out of the way quickly, don't come to find death!"

When the chief man saw that Ti Cai was disrespectful, he crooked his mouth, and seven or eight men came up and stabbed his spear directly at the horse that Na Ti was riding, and the horse was in pain and jumped in the air, so he took off the four Ti horsemen from their horses. Someone led four horses to the side and tied them to a pine tree. The crowd rushed up with swords, spears, clubs, and clubs, and surrounded the four horsemen.

In fact, these four horsemen were carefully selected by Wei Zhongxian's godson Xu Xianchun, and they all had good kung fu, but they couldn't do anything at this time. They softened their tones and said:

"Please give me a convenience, we have a warrant from Gonggong Wei, if we can't catch Zuo Guangdou, we will have to behead all over the house!"

The big man said:

"What Grandpa Wei?"

Ti Qi said:

"Wei Zhongxian is nine thousand years old. ”

"Phew!" said the big man, spitting hard.

"It turned out to be an old eunuch! Since he ordered Lord Zuo to be arrested, brothers, tie up the four of them for me first. ”

A rider was about to attack, and a young man jumped out and struck the sword in the rider's hand with a sword!

When Zuo Guangdou saw it, he was shocked: "Isn't this Gu Mingqiu?"

Seeing this, the four horsemen fell to their knees and kowtowed like pounding garlic. One of the humanitarians:

"We really don't have much silver, just a little bit of entanglement, strong man, go around us this time. ”

The chief man patted the knight on the chest with his blade and said:

"Wei Zhongxian's old gelding swallowed up countless silver taels, and he also specially framed good people, didn't he give 10,000 or 20,000 to your turtle grandsons! Since you can't take out the silver taels, you are also born and raised by your father, and only leave Lord Zuo behind, you wait and lead the dog's life to report to Wei Gelding. ”

The four Ti rode and kowtowed, saying: "Thank you for the grace of not killing." ”

The leader of the big man walked towards Zuo Guangdou and said:

"Lord Zuo, I'm frightened, come with us. ”

After saying that, he asked the knight for the key and was about to open the flail.

I saw Zuo Guangdou say:

"A strong man can't be like this, I am an official of the court, and I should serve the Son of Heaven and let him drive me. This time, I was ordered to arrest me, so why don't you go to face you? Please raise your noble hand and let me wait for me. ”

"Brother Zuo", I walked over.

"Brother Mingqiu, why are you here, how do you get together with this group of green forest strongmen?"

"Big brother, I'm ......"
