Chapter 31: The Flower Thief (7)
After Cai Songpo finished saying that he wanted to search himself first, he stretched out his arms and waited for someone to search, Lin Zhutou walked to him with two catches, and grabbed Cai Songpo's arms on both sides, Lin Zhutou reached out and groped on him, and soon searched for incense and blowpipes. Lin Zhutou took the incense and the blowpipe and said in surprise: "My lord, I found the incense and the blowpipe on Cai Songpo's body. Governor Yao also said happily: "Hurry up and present it." Lin Zhutou sent incense and blowpipes to the court case, and Governor Yao looked at the evidence and said, "Cai Songpo, what else do you have to say." Cai Songpo was very surprised and said: "Impossible, this is impossible, I have obviously put it on him Hongxia, how can it come to me again." Governor Yao said: "Cai Songpo, you said that you put this incense and blowpipe on Hong Xia." Cai Songpo suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed his words: "It's not like this, I mean I saw Hong Xia put this incense and blowpipe on himself." ’
Zhang Lingyu said: "I can prove that Hong Xia is definitely not a flower thief. Governor Yao said: "Zhang Lingyu, you can quickly come up with evidence, so that he can be convinced." Zhang Lingyu said: "This friend of mine is a daughter's family, how can he be a flower thief." Governor Yao asked the maid to take Hong Xia to the side hall for an examination, and soon returned to the lobby, and the maid said: "Lord Hui, this Hongxia warrior is really a daughter." Governor Yao said: "Come on, handcuff this flower thief." ’
Cai Songpo suddenly laughed and said, "I am a flower thief, what can you do to me." Before the handcuffs and shackles could be brought in, the two catchers who were holding his arms were shaken to the ground by his two arms. Lin Zhutou took a few catchers and surrounded him, and Cai Songpo jumped up to the beam of the lobby, and said with a smile: "Lord Prefect, Cai is leaving, and there will be no time in the future." The figure jumped towards the entrance of the lobby. Hong Xia jumped over to block it, and waved her hand to point at Cai Songpo's coercion. The two fought together again, and Lin Zhutou and the catchers couldn't get close at all, and they couldn't help at all. Zhang Lingyu watched him fight for a while, and it seemed that he couldn't tell the difference between victory and defeat for a while, so he walked over and took the sheathed sword and tapped Cai Songpo's thigh, only to see his body crooked. Hong Xia kicked him in the chest again and fell to the ground on the spot, and Hong Xia stepped on his back again to make him unable to move. Lin Zhutou rushed over with the handcuffs and shackles that had been prepared a long time ago, and locked Cai Songpo firmly. Cai Songpo looked at Zhang Lingyu and Hong Xia with resentful eyes and said, "What sect are you going to be?" Zhang Lingyu pointed at Hong Xia and said, "It's no imitation to tell you, this is the eldest lady of Hongjiabao, Shandong, Miss Hong Xia." Cai Songpo said hatefully: "It turned out to be a woman who pierced the clouds and Yanhong." ’
Lin Zhutou and Yizhu quickly dragged Cai Songpo to the front of the hall and threw him on the ground, and Yao Zhifu said: "Everyone stand up." After a pause, he said: "Cai Songpo, you lewd thief is not good at picking, you have to come to my Longyang Mansion to pick, I don't know how many times I have been scolded by the above." What else do you have to say now. Cai Song ramped: "I am now a prisoner, and I have nothing to say. Yao Zhifu said: "Since there is nothing to say, let's sign and draw a pledge, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin again." Master Zhou brought the transcript to Cai Songpo and said, "Draw it quickly." Lin Zhutou pulled him up and knelt down and said, "Hurry up and sign and draw the charge." Cai Songpo hesitated slightly, and there was a catch on his buttocks with a stick and said: "Now you dare to say that you are wronged, do you want to taste how many kinds of torture instruments there are in our yamen." At this time, Cai Songpo was not the same arrogance, now he was just a water dog, a crow with folded wings, and he was stunned when he heard the word torture instrument. Obediently drew a charge.
Governor Yao looked at him and said, "Cai Songpo, didn't you also issue a reward notice." said that whoever wants to catch you, you will give him five thousand taels of silver, and I think you can take it out now to this Hong Nuxia and Zhang Shaoxia. Cai Songpo sneered: "I'm only writing half of it, and the other half is to catch it, and if I can release it, I'll give him 5,000 taels." Hong Xia said: "The beauty you think, who is rare for your five thousand taels." Even if you give 50,000 taels, I can't let you go. Governor Yao said: "What Hong Nuxia said is good, this lewd thief wants to cheat, search his body to see if there is any silver." The two catchers quickly went up and rummaged through the flower thief, and turned over the silver and silver bills for a few hundred taels and presented them to the court. Yao Zhifu said: "You said that it was five thousand taels, but this is only a few hundred taels, which is too far away." But something is better than nothing, and it's all for the two of them. After a pause, he said, "Lin Zhutou, give them this silver." Lin Zhutou was just about to walk over.
Zhang Lingyu said: "My lord, slow down, we don't want this silver, at this stage, it is very hard to catch heads and fast in your yamen, you can reward them." Governor Yao accepted it after a few excuses, and said: "Okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey your orders, just listen to Zhang Shaoxia." After a pause, he said, "The three thousand taels of silver will be distributed in public at that time." Zhang Lingyu said: "Don't worry, can we go back?" Yao Zhifu said: "The sky is already bright, today he is all sleepy and tired, so go back to rest first." Then he said: "Come on, put this prostitute on death row with 50 boards, and parade the streets tomorrow to show the public to be beheaded on the spot, because the court has already issued a message saying that if this prostitute is caught, he can correct the law on the spot." Two of the catchers quickly pressed the flower thief to the ground, and the other two caught the big board and beat it, and after the fifty boards were beaten, the skin was already open. The two arresters grabbed him by the arms and dragged him to death row, threw him on the ground, locked the door and left. Before leaving, he said to the cell boss: "Old Wang, this guy is the famous flower thief, he is strong in martial arts, so don't approach him in case you are hurt by him." The old king said: "Yes, yes, this thing that thousands of people hate and scold, he just wants to drink saliva, and I won't give it to him." "Just don't let him die." The old king said, 'I understand.' ’
Zhang Lingyu walked out of the yamen is already the red sun, and Gui Hongbao is a thousand thanks, and they separated after saying goodbye. Zhang Lingyu and Hong Xia went towards the Good Luck Inn, and the two walked on the street and had breakfast by the way when they saw a stall in the morning. After eating breakfast and continuing to walk towards the inn, Hong Xia said as she walked: "Brother Yu, why don't you just knock down that lewd thief, let me go so hard to fight him, do you want to see my jokes." Lingyu smiled and said, "How can you think like this, I want you to make your name famous in the rivers and lakes, and let your Hongjiabao also be loud and powerful." Hong Xia smiled: "I believe you are, Brother Yu, you tell the truth, if you want to fight this flower thief, you have to use a few tricks to catch him." Lingyu smiled: "To be honest, I can beat him with one palm, and the flesh and bones are scattered, Sister Xia, do you believe it or not." Hong Xia looked at him and said with a smile: "I believe it, I believe everything Brother Yu says." ’
The two returned to the guest room of the inn, and just lay down to rest, Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, do you think the flower thief will hide the silver in the guest room. Lingyu said: "This is also possible, he must have silver, and he usually picks flowers and treasures." Hong Xia said: "Let's go and see it in the evening." Lingyu said: "If you want to see it, go and see it now, why wait until the evening." Hong Xia said: "You are not afraid of people seeing it in broad daylight." Lingyu said: "Sister Xia, don't worry, I'll go back when I go." Lingyu walked out of the guest room to the window of the flower thief's room, and when he saw that there was no one around, he shook his body and entered the room of the flower thief, and saw that there was a burden on the bed, and he walked to him and opened it to see a few clothes. Lingyu thought to herself: "No, you are so poor as a flower thief, I don't think it's possible, you have to look for it." Thinking of this, he turned his bed under and off the bed, and everywhere without hesitation. Later, when I thought that this thief was very good, he must have hidden in a high place. Lingyu shook his body and went to the beam of the room, and after a closer look, sure enough, there was a burden hidden in the dark under the ridge, and he took the burden and floated down.
Zhang Lingyu opened the bag and saw that it was a belly pocket worn by many women, all kinds of colors, and some incense, and then there was a bag below, Zhang Lingyu took out the bag and just untied it, and suddenly banged, a pink mist sprayed out from the baggage, Lingyu's reaction was really like lightning, shaking her body to the side, and then waving a palm and a gust of wind flew out of the window with the fog. Lingyu walked back to the bag and saw that there was still residual powder in the bag, and after sniffing it, he knew that it was poisonous powder, but fortunately, he was invulnerable. Lingyu swept the poison powder and saw that there was still a layer of **** inside, so she opened it, and when she opened it, she saw that there were really good things, a few pieces of jewelry and jade and a stack of silver tickets. He stuffed the poisonous **** onto the beams of the house, put the belly pocket and incense into his clothes bag and threw them on the bed, walked to the window with jewelry, jade and silver tickets, looked out and saw that there was no one, and then dodged and jumped out.
Zhang Lingyu returned to the guest room, and Hong Xia was already anxious and said, "Brother Yu, why did you make it for so long, didn't you find it?" Lingyu said: "I found it, this lewd is quite a means, he actually put a hidden weapon in his bag." Hong Xia's face changed and she said worriedly: "How about it, Brother Yu, are you injured, what's going on." Lingyu smiled, "It's okay." So he briefly explained the matter, and Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, have you been poisoned?" Lingyu smiled and said, "No, I am invincible." After saying that, he put the bag on the table and said, "This is the belongings of the flower thief." Hong Xia opened the bag and saw that it was jewelry, jade and silver tickets, she played with the jade pieces and admired them, and said with a smile: "It's really a good thing." Lingyu said: "There are still silver tickets here, I'll see how many there are." He checked it and smiled, "Sister Xia, guess how many." Hong Xia smiled: "I can't guess, it shouldn't be five thousand taels." Lingyu said: "A total of eight thousand taels of silver tickets." Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, should we hand it over to the government." ’
Zhang Lingyu said with a smile: "You are stupid, they have also swallowed it privately by handing it over to the government, and it is better to use it yourself if you give it to them, and it is good to give him a little if you meet someone who needs help." Hong Xia said: "The silver ticket is for you." Lingyu said: "Then how can you do it, as the saying goes, you have a share in wealth, how can you not want it, we are half of us." Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu, why are you so clear with me, do you want to abandon me from the beginning to the end and ignore me." Lingyu hurriedly hugged her fragrant shoulder and smiled: "Sister Xia, how can you think like this, the reason why I want to separate is because I am afraid that you will see me as a greedy ghost, you say that if you don't divide it, you won't divide it, but I have to give you a thousand taels to take with you for urgent use." Hong Xia said: "Then I don't want so much, just give me five hundred taels, and then ask you when I run out." Lingyu said: "That's fine, you can take all these jewels." Hong Xia said: "I'll take two pieces, and keep those for your fragrant sister." Lingyu said: "Sister Xiang has it, Sister Xia, I have to send you a good thing." Hong Xia smiled and said, "Brother Yu, what better thing do you have?" Lingyu took out a bag from her arms, pulled Hong Xia to the bed again, and then put the quilt on the heads of the two of them.
