Ximenqing, who was covered in pus and blood, was disgusting no matter how he looked at it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But no matter how disgusting, the messenger who escorted him to Salmon Island had to pinch his nose and take him out of prison.

According to the unspoken rules of these poor servants under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, the next step should be to take Ximen Qing to visit his relatives, friends, neighbors, and neighbors, and get a sum of money before he is willing to escort the Ximen officials on the road where there is no return.

But the poor people are not stupid, seeing that the prefects are busy copying Ximenqing's belongings, who will beg for anything at this time without a long eye?

And the messengers sent out to do this are all old fritters who have been mixed in the public gate for many years, and they know what the intention of the prefect's arrangement is-

Escorted to Shamen Island? There is no need to go so far to the subordinates of the living Hades on Shamen Island, and directly report on the way that "the prisoner is impatient to travel long distances and die violently halfway", which can be regarded as the completion of the procedural justice of the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty.

For this arrangement, except for the poor people who have to pay out of their own pockets, everyone is very satisfied.

Chen Wenzhao is very satisfied, after all, he is still a bureaucrat with a bottom line, and he respects the laws of the Great Song Dynasty very much, as long as he is perfect in the officialdom procedures, and Ximenqing is not a pure and innocent white rabbit, then he takes into account his own interests and conscience at the same time.

Wei Ye, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, is very satisfied, after all, Ximen Qing is not Lin Leopard's head, and there is no such thing as Lu Zhishen, a close friend who is in Buddhism but has a deep chivalrous heart, and is willing to perform a legend of "Havoc in the Wild Boar Forest" in the middle of the road.

With his brother who was seriously injured and had not recovered, Wu Song, who came to Dongping Mansion to accuse Ximenqing, was also very satisfied, although his sister-in-law was gone, but Ximenqing, a big dog who bullied his brother, was finished, and he was angry in his heart.

Only Wu Dalang, when he heard the news of his wife's death, he was stunned for a long time, and then said to his brother very seriously: "No matter how the prefects judge the case, I only believe a little, although your sister-in-law is a little hot, she is not that kind of person." ”

Although Wu Song felt a little dissatisfied with his brother's words, he still asked seriously, "What is my brother going to do?"

Wu Dalang thought for a long time with a wooden face, and finally lowered his head and said in a low voice: "When we go back to Qinghe County, I will buy a good piece of land for her." She is my daughter-in-law, and I didn't let her live a good life, so I will accompany her more in the future, otherwise your sister-in-law will be too lonely. ”

Listening to these seemingly ordinary words, Wu Song's face was solemn, but he was speechless.

From Dongping Mansion to Shamen Island, this road goes all the way to the east, which is much closer than going to Lingnan, Qiongzhou and other miasma. There are many cottages and wild shops along the way, and it is not difficult to walk.

After trekking for a few days, two messengers escorted Ximenqing to the north of Mengzhou Road, these days Ximenqing can not only gasp, like a puppet still fiddling with people, carrying a seven-pound wooden flail and following the two messengers to climb mountains and wade through water, without saying a word, even his eyes are stunned. It made these two poor people a little frightened.

In the evening of that day, I walked to a dirt slope, which was next to a mountain stream, and there were more than a dozen thatched houses, and I picked out a curtain of wine.

After a discussion between the two messengers, they simply turned down the dirt slope, bypassed the big tree hugged by several people in front of the grass house, climbed the withered vines on the tree and called the door: "Shopkeeper, we are the prisoners who escort the prisoners, buy some wine and food from you!"

I saw that the door of the wild shop was pushed open, and a stout woman in a red shirt and red dress came out of it, and her face was rubbed with extremely thick fat powder, like the kind of paper-tied virgin set up in the mourning hall.

The woman glanced at the two poor people, and said coquettishly: "It turned out to be two bad brothers, and the slaves are not far away." In our small shop, there is good wine and good meat, fat cake-like yellow beef, chewy buffalo meat, all ready-made. Although the home-brewed village wine is a little muddy, it is also very fragrant. There are even bigger stuffed steamed buns, bite into them, and the two of them will be full of oil!"

When the two messengers heard this, they couldn't help but laugh and said: "This kind of good beef, we can't eat it in Dongping Mansion, but today we took a big advantage." ”

As he spoke, he pushed Ximenqing and sat down in the store excitedly.

The woman went to the kitchen and cleaned up a large plate of meat with black sauce, and took a large barrel of wine, and a basket of meat steamed buns, along with three pairs of chopsticks.

The two poor people were already hungry, and they didn't distinguish between good and bad, they just munched on them.

Ximenqing carried the wooden flail, just sat in a daze, didn't look at the food, and didn't say anything superfluous.

The woman who sold the wine diligently sifted the wine for the two poor people, and asked casually: "Brother Cha, this prisoner is born so handsomely, I don't know which family's son, what kind of lawsuit he has suffered, how did he end up in such a bleak state?"

A poor man chewed the sauce and raised his head, probably a little confused by the stocky white greasy mass on the woman's peach-colored bandeau, he just smiled and said: "Eldest sister, don't underestimate him, this big official was originally a character who trembled three times in his hometown." It's just that he shouldn't harbor the Qin criminals, not only did he lose many delicate beauties in the family, but he also fell to the point of confiscating his family and distributing Salmon Island. If it was in the past, we would have knelt down three times and bowed nine times, and I don't know if this big official would reward us with decency!"

Another messenger drank a bowl of wine, shook his head and said, "Eldest sister, the taste of your village wine is too thin, I don't know what good wine to treat us?"

The woman listened and chuckled: "Yes, there are all, but although my family's good wine is strong, the color is also more muddy, so don't dislike it." ”

The servant took a bite of the meat steamed bun, although he felt that the meat filling was not sour, and there was a strange smell of sourness, he still nodded and said: "It's good to have good wine, the eldest sister just go and get it." It doesn't matter if you're drunk, you just stay overnight at the eldest sister's place at night. ”

As he spoke, the gaze inadvertently circled the woman's chest.

The woman just smiled and told the two messengers some meat jokes, twisted her waist and went into the back kitchen, and in a short time came out with a jar of unfiltered village wine full of floating grains of rice.

She took a coconut scoop and scooped a bowl for each of the two messengers, and without sifting the floating rice, she smiled and said, "My family's good wine has come, and the eldest brother wants to reward me with a decent bowl and fill this bowl." ”

The two poor people were persuaded by her, and they were a little angry, and they couldn't help nodding and saying, "Okay, okay, we're full of drinks." ”

After that, the two poor men took the bowl and drank it all, but they heard the woman on the side cry: "Pour, pour!" Even though the two bad men were alarmed, they could no longer support it, so they fell headlong!
