Xue Shuiwu's almond eyes shot fire, glared at Huang Yuanwai and said, "Aren't you afraid of the king's law if you kidnap the women of the people?"
Member Huang spread out his hands and said with a smile: "If the people don't raise their hands, the officials won't be held accountable. Who would report on this official for such a trivial matter? When you and I become a real husband and wife, are you willing to send me to jail? Little lady , You still follow me.
As for the love between men and women, it’s fun only if you love me, so I don’t want to force you, but if you don’t want to drink a toast, hehe, I have no choice but to force it. In my family, you are screaming that the sky should not respond, the earth is not working, and no one will pay attention to you if you break your throat. "
Xue Shuiwu was completely desperate, and she thought of Ye Xiaotian unexpectedly. She knew that Ye Xiaotian was still protecting her in secret, and that he had saved her from danger many times along the way, but after all, he was alone and did not Not an omnipotent god, will he appear in time this time
Thinking that this is Huang Yuanwai's home, and Huang Yuanwai is the local emperor of the whole village, Ye Xiaotian is just an ordinary person, not a knight-errant who can go high and low, he will never break into Huang's mansion no matter what, his eyes are sharp Dim down.
Huang Yuanwai smiled triumphantly when he saw this scene, and was about to say something more when Zhang Fei and Yeke rushed over and whispered a few words into his ear. Huang Yuanwai was slightly stunned, and gave Xue Shuiwu a glance and said: "Little lady, you'd better think about the situation now, don't toast or eat fine wine!"
After Huang Yuanwai finished speaking, he quickly walked out of the room and told the servants outside: "Let me watch them."
As Huang Yuanwai walked, he asked Ye Ke: "Where did the police come from? From the county? Are they going to conscript husbands or send servants? It's still time to collect taxes, right?"
Ye Ke scratched his head and said: "The little one can't hear it clearly, it seems... It seems that the arrester of some kind of crime is mentioned, and the little one can't understand it."
Huang Yuanwai suddenly stopped in his tracks, and said anxiously, "What department? The procuratorial department for punishment?"
Ye Ke quickly nodded: "Yes, yes, this is the secretary, master, do you know?"
Huang Yuanwai's face changed slightly. How could he not know about such a big yamen? But the people in the government he has dealt with are limited to the county government. When did he have the qualifications to have a relationship with the inspector? Why did the provincial government suddenly send personnel here, and without going through the prefecture or county, directly find him, a little Baozheng
In the living room, Ye Xiaotian crossed his legs, holding a teacup, squinting his eyes to appreciate the picture of a lady fluttering a butterfly on the screen, when he heard a rush of footsteps, he turned his head and saw a member with a rolling stomach rushing in quickly, Before the legs stepped into the hall, the stomach poked in first.
Ye Xiaotian took a sip of his tea, sat there sloppily, didn't get up, just pointed to the opposite side, and said slowly: "Sit!"
Huang Yuanwai had already raised his hands, and seeing Ye Xiaotian sitting so well, he hurriedly sat on the opposite side, as if Ye Xiaotian was the owner of this room, and asked anxiously: "I am a local protector, I don't know if there is a big business trip Come here, what can I teach you?"
Originally, Huang Yuanwai was considered a local gentry, a person who could talk in front of the county magistrate, so he didn't have to be so polite to a small yamen servant. However, the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's gate, with the same tolerance, the officials of the procuratorate and the county officials are naturally different.
Ye Xiaotian coughed and said flatly: "Master Huang..."
Member Huang hurriedly bowed, flattered and said: "I don't dare to call me Huang Baozheng if I don't dare to be called by my superior."
Ye Xiaotian nodded, and said with a smile: "Huang Baozheng, my surname is Ye, Ye Xiaotian, I'm going to step up to the third class of the procuratorate. In your village, have any foreigners come or passed by here these days?"
Huang Yuanwai still hadn't figured out what Ye Xiaotian was on a business trip, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he hurriedly replied: "No... no outsiders passed by, er... I don't know why the mission asked about it?"
Ye Xiaotian glared at him and said, "There are some things you can ask?"
Huang Yuanwai quickly responded: "Yes, yes, this old man is reckless."
Ye Xiaotian swayed Erlang's legs and pondered for a while, and said: "Huang Baozheng, remember, if someone in your village takes in a little woman with a child, or if you see such two people passing by your village, you must Report to the police immediately."
Ye Xiaotian stretched his waist, sighed wearily, and said: "All the members of the procuratorate have been dispatched to various places. Ye Mou just arrived in your place and just notified the local county government. This person brought a girl My little lady is a very important criminal..."
He held his palm like a knife, slashed down slightly, stared into Huang Baozheng's eyes, and said solemnly: "Whoever dares to take them in, or refuses to report the knowledge, will be beheaded!"
The fat all over Huang Yuanwai's body trembled, and he asked frightenedly: "Is this... so serious, how can a little woman commit such a big crime?"
Ye Xiaotian chuckled, stared at him and said, "Conspiracy is a serious crime, do you think it's a big crime?"
"Big! Big big!"
Huang Yuanwai's eyes were almost protruding, he nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and secretly groaned in his heart: "No wonder there is such a handsome and lovely little lady in this kind of place, and she still looks like she is fleeing.
I knew who she was, it turned out to be treason! That's right, that's right, it must be the family members of the rebels, who is the rebel? Ouch, last year the imperial court just quelled the rebellion in the Eighteenth Cave of Lianyun. Could it be that this little woman has something to do with the Eighteenth Cave of Lianyun? "
Huang Yuanwai was thinking wildly in his heart, but Ye Xiaotian drank the tea in one gulp, stretched his waist and said: "Okay, I'll let you know by the way, I have to get on the road quickly, this case is very tense up and down, according to the procuratorate My lord personally supervises the handling, don't dare to be lazy, if we still can't catch people after the deadline, we will be punished."
Huang Yuanwai was afraid, when he heard that he was going to leave, he couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "It's hard work, hard work. I'm on business, and I don't dare to keep this old man. Please also accept the errands with a smile, and drink some tea on the way to moisten your throat."
As Huang Yuanwai said, he took out a small silver ingot weighing five taels from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Ye Xiaotian's hand. Ye Xiaotian picked up the silver ingot, hesitantly said: "This... I'm afraid it's not right, how can Ye let Huang Baozheng spend money?"
Huang Yuanwai nodded and bowed: "It should be, it should be, if it weren't for the hard work of the servants, how could the safety of the place be kept, the old man can't enjoy the peace, right?"
Seeing Ye Xiaotian holding the silver ingot up and down, as if he still thought it was too small, Officer Huang gritted his teeth, took out another ingot of silver ingot and handed it over: "It's hard work, hard work."
Ye Xiaotian changed his smile, and said: "Hehe, since this is the case, then Ye Mou will be disrespectful, and Ye Mou will leave now. In this matter, Huang Yuan, you have to pay attention to it. Farewell, farewell."
Huang Yuanwai sent Ye Xiaotian to the gate, nodded and bowed his head as he watched him go away, suddenly slapped his forehead heavily, and said with a mournful face: "This is bad, why did I find a disaster star to come to the door, what should I do? "
※※※
Huang Yuanwai was pacing up and down the hall uneasily, because of his fat body and wheezing sound, he looked like a fat pig in heat, patrolling his pigsty restlessly.
The housekeeper rushed in, Huang Yuanwai rushed up immediately, and asked anxiously, "Sent away?"
Seeing the butler nodding his head affirmatively, Huang Yuanwai took two steps back, sat down in the armchair, and arched his body hard, stuffing all the fat around his waist into the chair, and then let out a long breath.
The steward hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Master, since you suspect that the young woman is from Lianyun Shibadong, why don't you hand her over to the official? Maybe it's a great achievement."
"Hey, what a great achievement? You must be fooled by lard!"
Member Huang opened a pair of mung bean eyes, stared at him with hatred, and said, "That's the person in charge of criminal punishment, do you know how dark-hearted Wang Huhu is in the criminal justice department? Once I hand him over, The old man turned his back on him and said that I was an accomplice of Lianyun Shibadong, and he was afraid that it would be difficult for me to get rid of it if I scattered all my wealth.
Besides, although Lianyun Eighteenth Cave was defeated, the rest of the troops hid in the mountains, even if there is a million troops, they can't do anything, they can't deal with the government, can't they deal with me? Once I spread the news that their family members were kidnapped and sent to the government, will my life be saved? "
When the member said this, he squeezed out of the chair with great effort, narrowed his eyes, and said with a scheming look: "Just send her away. If she is caught by the government, she will die. Xianxin talked about the miscellaneous things that she was almost molested on the road? If she escapes smoothly, even the people from Yunshibadong will not come to retaliate against me because of it."
Neither of them mentioned killing people to silence them. Not everyone dares to use such a thing, let alone these local gentry who live in one side of the world, how dare they let their hands be killed for no reason. What's more, once someone is killed, these servants who know about it will have the master's handle, so it's hard to say when it will be a big disaster.
The fat man sighed, and told the butler, "Pack up, I'm going to Yangzhou to visit relatives."
The housekeeper was puzzled and said: "Master, does our family have any relatives in Yangzhou?"
The fat man kicked up and shouted angrily: "Get ready, you pig!"
Under the willow tree at the entrance of the village, Xue Shuiwu took Le Wu's little hand, twisted her graceful waist, which was more graceful than the willow branches of the new tree, and looked back at the steward of Yuanwai's family who fled like a bereaved dog. It was as clear as the stream under the willow His eyes were full of doubts.
Because she resolutely refused to join the member, so the member got angry...let her go? This is obviously unlikely, but why...
Xue Shuiwu immediately understood the real reason, she suddenly saw that familiar figure, that figure that always brought her warmth and hope when she was in despair, and made her extremely dependent, Xue Shuiwu burst into tears like rain...
