169 True and False Prefectural Orders
After Xiong Wei untied the county order, he looked at him from top to bottom and said, "What do you use to prove that you are the true county order?" ”
The prefectural order activity said: "I am the prefectural order, what proof do I need." The people of Texas City know it. ”
"But when we came, there was already a county order to receive us, and that person was obviously not you. Xiong Wei looked at him strangely.
"Okay! I'll prove it to you. Come with me. ”
He took Xiong Wei and Xia Yun to the hall in the backyard, walked through the hall, and entered the study. He took out the seal of the prefectural ordinance and the official document appointed as the prefectural magistrate at that time, and said, "You believe that." ”
Xiong Wei didn't understand these things, so he gave Xia Yun a look.
Xia Yun picked it up, looked at it carefully, and said, "These are indeed real seals and official documents. He found it easily, and it can also prove that he is the county magistrate of this county. ”
"Then how did you get tied behind the rockery?" Xiong Wei held his right hand with his left hand and his chin with his right hand, looked at the county order with a puzzled face, and said, "If you are the county order, then what happened to the people who greeted us before?"
"Half a month ago, a group of guys suddenly came. I slept until midnight before I was arrested and tied up in a rockery, and there was a man watching me and bringing me food every day. No one has brought me food since the day before yesterday, and my guards are gone. I slowly crawled out. ”
"You have been tied up for half a month, and the other brothers in the county government haven't found out about such a big thing?" Xiong Wei looked at the county order, his face full of doubts.
"Other brothers?" the county commander suddenly remembered something, "After I was arrested, the other brothers didn't know." ”
"What about King Fu, and what about the soldiers we brought with us from Jingshi, where have they gone? Xiong asked strangely.
"Hurry up and look for it in the county office first. If there are no clues, something is really wrong. We just have to wait for the other party to send us a message. Xia Yun said coldly. She sighed in her heart: I hope they didn't kill the Lucky King.
"I guess there is nothing big about those brothers, and we haven't seen a drop of blood since we came in. Xiong Wei looked up at the sky and sighed, "I have a feeling they must be locked up somewhere." ”
He shrugged his nose and smelled a large puff of alcohol. "yes, where did this smell come from? Let's find out first. ”
As he spoke, Xiong Wei followed the direction where the smell of wine came and came to the west wing of the county office. As soon as the door was opened, the soldiers collapsed into pieces, and the bottles fell to the ground. Some of the soldiers still had wine bottles in their hands.
Xiong Wei walked in and patted them on the face and said, "What's going on?"
The soldier was so drunk that he saw Xiong Wei coming, and he didn't know who it was. He took the bottle and said to Xiong Wei, "Come, drink!"
Xiong Wei grabbed a man's collar again and said, "Why are you drunk like this, where has King Fu gone?"
The man was also drunk and unconscious, and said, "Drink!"
The bear shook him off, and the soldier fell on top of another soldier.
Xia Yun glanced around and said, "It seems that they are already drunk, and if they want to ask something, I'm afraid they won't be able to ask." ”
"Let's go to the place where King Fu lives. Xiong Wei ran to King Fu's room again.
King Fu's room also smelled of alcohol, and the curtain on his bed was closed. Xiong Wei was afraid of some ambush, and his steps were very light.
"Huhuhu......" came from the curtain with bursts of snoring, like thunder.
Xiong Wei used "Feifei" to pick up the curtain. I saw King Fu sleeping on the bed like a dead pig. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately, King Fu was not killed. Otherwise, I really don't know how to explain to the emperor.
"Yun'er, we have to find a way to wake those guys up. Otherwise, we don't know what will happen after we leave. ”
Xia Yun nodded.
"For now, though, there's no one to help me. Except for him. Xiong Wei pointed his sword at the county order and said.
They left all the doors and windows of the room open to allow air to circulate and help to dissipate the smell of alcohol. Then, he went to the street to find some people to help, boiled a large pot of decanting soup, and poured it down for the soldiers.
I don't know how long it took, but finally some of the soldiers woke up. They began to touch their heads, stretch their waists, and some even sat up and knocked on their heads.
"Can any of you tell me what's going on?" Bear grabbed one of them, looking almost sober.
As soon as this man saw Xiong Wei, he immediately sobered up a lot: "Lord Xiong! Lord Xiong! ”
"Can you tell me what happened after we left. Xiong Wei stared at the soldier.
On the night after you left, the county magistrate said that we would have a feast. ”
"And then you're drunk like this?"
"This ...... We didn't know what was going on, we felt dizzy after a few drinks, and we didn't know what was going on next. ”
"What about the brothers in the county government?" Xiong Wei saw that these were all people he had brought from Beijing.
The soldier looked at the soldier behind him again and said, "I don't know about this." ”
"Alas, asking is asking in vain. Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun again, "Yun'er, what do you think." ”
"I think the money and food are lost, and they have nothing to do with these people. They kidnapped the prefectural magistrate and made a fake one to trick us. Where's the fake county order?"
"Wake up the brethren until they wake up. You ask them to look around in the county office to see if the brothers from the county government will be locked up in a corner. Xiong Wei said to the soldier who had just answered the question.
"Subordinates obey!" After Xiong Wei finished speaking, the soldiers immediately did what Xiong Wei ordered.
Xiong Wei thought in his heart: Now King Fu is fine. The most important thing at the moment is to find the food as soon as possible. Although the disaster relief money and food in Dezhou and Linqing have arrived, people in other places are also in need of this material.
"Lord Prefectural Order, the thing was lost in the warehouse. Come with me and let's go to the warehouse and have a look. Xiong Wei said to the prefectural order, and walked in the direction of the warehouse after speaking.
The county magistrate followed Xiong Wei to the warehouse, and he suddenly said, "When did this warehouse exist?" ”
Xiong looked at him in surprise. "What did you say?"
"This warehouse didn't have it before. I don't know when it was. It used to be a vacant lot. I loosened the soil and was ready to plant something. ”
"What?" Surprised, Xiong Wei hurriedly crouched down and looked at the dirt on this side of the warehouse, and then at the walls of the warehouse. The walls of the warehouse here are obviously different from the houses over there, and they are very new.
"What's going on with that little warehouse you talked about earlier? After Xiong Wei finished speaking, he felt that it was wrong, and the small warehouse was told to him by the previous county order. He added, "Was there only one warehouse before the county office?"
"Yes, there is only one warehouse. The area of the warehouse is also not large. I vacated the West Wing just because I wanted you to put the silver in the West Wing and the grain in the warehouse when you came. The prefectural magistrate hurriedly explained.
Xiong Wei walked carefully to the warehouse, squatted down, looked at the corner of the warehouse, and looked at the crack in the ground. Xiong Wei found a thick dead branch around, and vigorously dug the soil in the corner of the wall, and found that the warehouse had no foundation, and the wall was piled up with bricks from less than a meter underground.
He instantly felt like he had been tricked.
Xiong Wei walked into the warehouse, and the sunlight shone through the door of the warehouse. He was surprised to find some cracks in the wall facing the gate.
He continued to walk in, and found that some of the walls were different from the others, as if they had only been built for a short time.
"Yun'er, Yun'er, come and see. Xiong Wei said, staring at the wall.
Xia Yun also stared at this wall, which had some spider silk-like cracks.
In addition to this, she also found that the wall not only had spider silk cracks, but also many horizontal cracks. However, if you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.
"Yun'er, haven't you inspected this warehouse before? ”
Xia Yun recalled the situation at that time. "When I came in, the room was empty. I looked at every wall, and it was all in good condition. ”
Xiong Wei looked at the wall now, and it was obvious that part of the wall had been demolished and then replaced. And these spider silk-like cracks are estimated to have been shaken when the wall was demolished.
After demolition, it will be replaced, and the purpose is obvious. It's to hide people's eyes and ears. That's where the thieves come in. But why didn't you see it at the time?
