The sky was hazy, and there was a thick fog outside.

Tian Musa and Ma Benqing always felt that the atmosphere outside was not quite right, and it seemed that there was a slight change somewhere. There was not a single figure outside, and there was no sound at all, except for the occasional birdsong above the treetops and the constant crash of the waves crashing against the shore. The pavilion is located on three sides of the water. Tian Muzuo casually pressed the handle of the knife and was about to go out to take a look. Ma Benqing stopped him, shook his head, and cautiously grabbed the teacup on the table and ejected out of the door.

The crisp sound of "clang" was particularly alarming, but the courtyard was still quiet, and there was no sound at all.

The two glanced at each other, and the sweat on their faces came down. The courtyard outside the gate was guarded by local officers, and his men were only scattered throughout the house at critical moments. The officers should not have heard a sound without the slightest reaction. The two of them each got up and sneaked out of the door back to back, and it was quiet outside, and there was no one there, and then the door to the front yard was closed at some point. The two of them searched the yard carefully, but they didn't see any danger, and the hanging heart was a little lighter.

Tian Muzuo wiped his forehead and said, "Master Ma, what do you think, do you want to report to our master?"

Ma Benqing hesitated for a moment and said, "The situation is not good, it is estimated that we are besieging others." But let's see that these people are a rabble, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Ma Benqing looked up at the sky and said, "It's too early, our family and his wife may not have gotten up yet, and it's not time to disturb him!"

Tian Muzuo nodded and said, "Yes." If it's just the officials and the officers and soldiers, we don't need to be afraid, but we have few people, and the horses and chariots are not around, so our lords and girls must not have the slightest mistake!

Ma Benqing smiled slyly and said, "Brother, do you dare to break through with my brother?"

Tian Muzuo was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Ma Ye means that you and I will dissolve this rabble for our master?"

Ma Benqing said: "Exactly." Why not! Brother Tian, do you dare?"

Tian Muzuo pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Why don't you dare? If your brother Ma dares to do it, our brother will never say a word, don't forget that we are the second superintendent army left and right!"

Ma Benqing shook the knife in his hand and said with a smile: "Then let's prepare to do it?"

Tian Mu pulled out his long knife with a sigh and nodded knowingly.

Ren Zhi and Ren Yong rushed over, and when they saw these two long knives in their hands, they were shocked, and each pulled out a single knife and ran forward.

Ma Benqing stopped the two of them, and said in a low voice: "Don't make a sound, we have already besieged others, and our family and his wife don't know yet!"

Zhu Hu Yong is the master possessed by the Heavenly Evil Star. Ren Zhi and Ren Yong were furious when they heard this, and the evil was born from the guts and wanted to break out.

Ma Benqing stretched out his arm to stop him, and said, "Two of you, our old brother Ma and Tian have already agreed that we will all cover the work for today, and you two brothers can't interfere!"

Ren Yongyi frowned thickly, and said with a smile: "Master Ma, I'm afraid this is not appropriate! We can't distinguish between thick and thin, right and far, why do we brothers say that they are also our personal guards, you Ma Ye can't let my brothers not raise their heads in front of all the brothers!"

Ren Zhi smiled: "That's it." Although there are not many people in the pavilion, there are not a few, so let's not be careless if we are trapped here. Safety is the first priority, and it is necessary to do it quickly!"

Tian Musa is in a dilemma.

Ma Benqing stiffened his neck and said: "No, our old horse has already agreed with Brother Tian that he will fight alone, and no matter how much you two interfere, you two will not be able to show where our responsibilities lie! No, you two will take care of our master in the courtyard!"

Ma Benqing Qing Tian Muzuo made his eyes look at it, and flew out of the blue sky with his feet. Tian Muzuo turned his head to Ren Zhi and Ren Yong with a grimace, and rolled to the back of the courtyard gate on the spot.

Ren Zhi and Ren Yong are not willing to be idle, the two of them have a pair of eyes, and they roll to the wall on both sides, and they each fly on the wall and fly out.

Xiao San came out in a daze, but he didn't see a person go in in a daze.

At this moment, there was already a mutiny in the pavilion. The officers and officers seized the county commander Zhou Xunqian and the master. It turned out that the officials and the officials and soldiers saw that Ren Tianqi and his entourage had only a dozen or so people, and when they thought that the Xuzhou soldiers were raising troops to seize Tongyang Erzhou and helping the emperor of the Dajin Kingdom to quell the civil strife, the anger in their stomachs was nowhere to be expressed; these people were all busy fighting the flood on the embankment of the Huai River, but now they were going to send manpower to Qintongguan Post Station to set up a sentry, and an evil fire was born. Everyone heard that Ren Tianqi was drunk, so they wanted to catch Ren Tianqi and the others. The county commander Zhou Xunqian disagreed, and as a result, the officials and officials locked Zhou Xunqian in a house. However, the officials and the officials and soldiers did not reach an agreement in private, whether to take down everyone or kill them to go to Lin'an to invite merit, or to besiege Ren Tianqi and ask for clarification. The people only locked the gate of the courtyard, hid all the horses and carts, and blocked the way out, and were debating in the front yard what to do with the matter.

After all, it is the officials and the officials and soldiers who are too far apart. Ma Benqing and the four of them didn't have to toss to solve the sergeants who guarded the courtyard, guarded the horses, and guarded the county commander Zhou Xunqian. When the four saw that the mutinous officers and soldiers were fighting there, they wanted to go forward and kill them. Zhou Xunqian hurriedly intervened and interceded for the officials and officials. The four of them dared to kill people and set fires, but everyone did not dare to make private claims about the mutiny of the sergeants, so they led Zhou Xunqian to the courtyard to see Ren Tianqi.

Xiao San was anxious that he couldn't see everyone, and when he looked up, he saw that everyone was carrying Zhou Xunqian in, and he was startled, and he was so busy that he came forward and was about to speak.

Ma Benqing hurriedly said: "Third master, has our master gotten up?

Xiao San wondered, "What's wrong?"

Ma Benqing said: "The officials and sergeants outside have mutinied! They are planning a rebellion in front!"

Zhou Xun said anxiously: "Generals, generals, officials and sergeants have not rebelled, there has been no rebellion!

Xiao San said coldly: "Lord Zhou, our Xiao San is not a bodhisattva like our master! This military law is ruthless, whether you rebel or not, you will be killed for offending the main general!"

Xiao San turned around and took his long sword and said to Ren Zhi: "You go and report the second lady or Xia He." He said to Ren Yong: "You must take care of our horses with a few people, especially the treasure chariot of the county lord, and you must not fall into the hands of the enemy!" The two flew away.

Xiao San laughed wildly, drew his sword out of the sheath, glanced at Zhou Xunqian and said: "The adult's surname Xiao San does not dare to make a conclusion, he has his own general's fate; As for your subordinates, it is impossible to escape the death penalty!" Xiao San made a move to seal several key points of Zhou Xunqian, and Ma Tian and Ma Tian were about to be discharged from the hospital.

The mutinous sergeants and servants outside had also noticed the change, and they all rushed over with swords and guns to surround the courtyard gate, and several sergeants had climbed up to the treetops to prepare to draw their bows and arrows. Xiao Sangong Ming Who are they, a group of masters who killed people without blinking in the past, how could they allow these rabble to make a move. Xiao San flew up a handful of plum blossom needles and shot down those people. Ma Benqing had already flown up and was ready to dive.

Although Zhou Xunqian's body can't move, his mouth and eyes can still move. He knew that Xuzhou Bing's killing surname was unacceptable, and he was not willing to bear the charge of conniving at the mutiny, let alone his subordinates to make inaction. Zhou Xunqian then opened his throat and shouted: "Brothers, don't get into trouble, hurry up and rein in the precipice, turn back to the shore, we have something to say! Generals, be merciful, please think twice! General, general, come quickly, I, Zhou Xunqian, have something important to report!"

Tian Muzuo raised his hand to knock down Zhou Xunqian, sealed Zhou Xunqian's mouth again, and kicked Zhou Xunqian into the door and rolled into the hall.

The sergeants and officials outside saw that Zhou Xunqian had been arrested, and out of respect for Zhou Xunqian's as an official, they threw a rat and hesitated.

The two of them didn't care about this, gritted their teeth and broke out.

Winter Snow and Summer Lotus appeared in the courtyard in time.

Dong Xue said angrily: "What kind of system is this noisy and shouting! General Gong, General Ma, stop it! What has happened to kill his own military and horse servants!"

Gong Ming and Ma Benqing hurriedly flew back when they heard this, but they didn't see Ren Tianqi. Xiao San said in a low voice: "What about our grandfather? Why didn't our grandfather come out?"

Dong Xue said coldly: "What's the matter, can't Mrs. Ben speak? Look at what you are waiting for, why don't you quickly unlock the acupoint for Lord Zhou!"

Tian Muzuo hurriedly untied Zhou Xunqian's acupoint and helped him up. Xiao San and Ma Benqing did not make a sound. The sergeants and servants rushed into the courtyard with shouts, looking nervously in front of them, killing or retreating.

Zhou Xunqian hurriedly came forward to thank Dongxue, and said: "My subordinate Zhou Xunqian thanked his wife for not killing her." The subordinates are willing to vouch for their subordinates with the head of the item. The officials and sergeants have no intention of mutiny!" Zhou Xunqian took off his official hat and knelt on the ground.

Dongxue smiled slightly and stepped forward. Xiao San and the others hurriedly stepped forward to protect them. Winter Snow shook his hand to block it.

Dong Xue said with a smile: "Of course, the general and Mrs. Ben believe that you, Lord Zhou, are self-reliant and diligent in serving the people, but this does not mean that your subordinates will not be suspicious of different intentions, and even have evil intentions! Who is the general, is it that you and other dozens of people can be stumped? I believe everyone has heard of the legend of the Ghost Thirteen Horsemen, and the 300,000 elite rebels of the Dajin Kingdom cannot embarrass the general, how can the general care about your small Haihe County? Have you seen this warrior who killed wolves and leopards with his bare hands, and hunted thirty horse thieves on his own horse? "Dongxue looks back a little, Ren Zhi Ren Yong.

Ren Zhi and Ren Yong flew forward, grinning and holding knives to seal the portal.

The officers and sergeants twitched and stepped back uneasily, pushing and shoving each other.

Dong Xue raised her hand to stop Ren Zhi and Ren Yong, and said, "But that's it, I'll come back again." Since the general is the lord of Tongyang, the officials and sergeants of Haizhou are not outsiders, and the general can't bear to kill you from the bottom of his heart, although you are guilty of rebellion and rebellion......!

The sergeants shouted, "We don't have the intention of mutiny!"

"If the villains really had bad intentions, they would have attacked at night, at least they would have set fire to the pavilion!"

"We don't accept it, let's admit it when we kill the villains, but this matter has nothing to do with Lord Zhou Xunqian!"

Dong Xue said with a smile: "Okay, soldiers, don't you think that you are suspected of rebellion, but why do you have to hold a weapon in front of your boss? This is not a rebellion? Lord Zhou is a good official, of course Mrs. Ben knows." Even if Lord Zhou is not suspected of rebellion, this crime of improper employment should still not be escaped, right?"

The words did not fall. The sergeants had already abandoned the instruments in their hands, let go of the courtyard gate, and separated into two strategies.

Dong Xue smiled, and ordered Xiao San and the others to put away the guys as well.

Accompanied by the girls, Dongxue slowly walked to the middle of the sergeants and officials. All the sergeants and servants hung their heads and were silent.

Dongxue walked back and forth, returned to the front, and said: "Soldiers, officials, Mrs. Ben can see that everyone has been running around to strengthen the river embankment recently, and the water traces on your body have not yet gone, and the mud has not yet dried. is worthy of being the descendants of Haihe, and the reputation of 'loyal and righteous people, the army of the community' can still be afforded. Lord Zhou said yesterday that he had already reported your hard work to the general, and for this reason the general was drafting an order to build and strengthen the river embankment. But Mrs. Ben has something to say first, and the rewards and punishments that have always been paid attention to in this army cannot be ignored by you today!"

The officers and sergeants fell to their knees in unison.

One of the sergeants said in a loud voice: "We don't insist on having a good time with our wife, and we don't want to embarrass the general. It's just that there are some things that everyone hasn't figured out, like a stab in the throat, don't go to the unhappy!"

Dong Xue said with a smile: "Yes, the general's private visit to Weifu is precisely to go deep into the grassroots to investigate the people's situation and solve problems and solve doubts." Since you don't understand something, let's just say it. ”

The man said: "The general relies on the Jin people to get through the Erzhou Division and is unknown!

The man said: "The general wants to use the Jin people to plot against Lin'an, and he has the heart to be called the king, and the people are bound to fall into the misery again!

The man said: "Is the general affecting the world for his own desires, how can the world believe, and why is it complete?"

There was a stirring in the crowd. The officers and sergeants all whispered. Dongxue smiled at everyone, and the jade tree was in the wind, graceful and generous.

Suddenly, a person stood in the crowd. He was a burly and sturdy man, so he saw him clasping his fists and said respectfully: "Mrs. Hui, the actions of the officials and the sergeants today are all encouraged by the villain, and the villain now knows the difficulties and ambitions of the general, and the general is wrongly blamed, and the villain is willing to be dealt with by military law; When the man had finished speaking, he stooped down and picked up a knife to wipe his neck. The sergeants next to him had already rushed forward to snatch the knives in their hands and bowed to the ground one by one.

Zhou Xunqian also came up and knelt in front of Dongxue and begged bitterly.

Dong Xue ordered Zhou Xun to humble himself and said with a smile: "This is a real hero!

Zhou Xunqian burst into tears and said: "Xiaguan's younger brother, Zhou Changguo, the governor of Haizhou County. ”

Dongxue was quite satisfied and happy, and said with a smile: "Soldiers, please get up quickly." How dare the little woman interfere in the major affairs of the army, but from the things that are said today, the little woman can also see the loyalty and righteousness of the soldiers, this heart and this spirit are the luck of the general, and the luck of the people. The little woman doesn't dare to guarantee that the general will be rewarded, but she can guarantee that the soldiers will not be punished!"

The sergeant was thunderous because of the cries of the officials. Dongxue turned around and ordered the girl to go in and ask Ren Tianqi.

Ren Tianqi came out to pardon the reckless behavior of the sergeants and the officials, rewarded Zhou Changguo, the capital of Haizhou, with 2000 silver, and Zhou Xunqian, the county commander, with 2000 silver, and ordered Yangzhou to quickly dispatch 1500 sergeants to Haizhou to strengthen the river embankment. Ren Tianqi and the others drove a treasure car and horses to follow Zhou Xunqian to the river embankment to inspect, and set a trade plan with Zhou Xunqian to sell fish and shrimp.

left the people of Haizhou and continued to move forward, but it was very unquiet along the way.

When the villagers gathered to intercept and inquire about the people's livelihood, Dong Xue tried to pardon the people on the grounds that the law did not punish the people, and promised to pay light taxes and forced labor, with 15 taxes and 1 tax, and the people returned happily; Ren Tianqi was shocked and asked where it came from, Dong Xue smiled and said, "In the past, the Han family used 15 taxes and one system."

When the chivalrous warriors of the rivers and lakes wanted to eliminate harm for the people and assassinate and encircle, Dong Xue and Xia He refuted the pedantic theory of loyalty and filial piety with 'the people's livelihood is greater than the sky, and history is not innovative and out of date', which made the people in the rivers and lakes retreat in shame.

There is an unknown killer who wants to hijack the treasure car, and Dong Xue kills it with the mechanism of the treasure car, and the killers all hold their heads and run around; Ren Tianqi is full of pride.

In the wine shop, there are corrupt scholars who use the past and the present to ridicule Ren Tianqi, and Ren Tianqi is angry and wants to kill him; Dong Xue disdains him with light songs and dances, poems, piano and chess, and says, "Scholars are unbearable and insufficient in ancient and modern times, and they only confuse the public with demons, and since Confucius, they are all hypocrites"; Ren Tianqi laughed loudly and praised the women for not letting them have their eyebrows.
