The people who gathered outside the door did not know how sad the officials who were concerned about the people's livelihood were. Just when they were discussing why Minzhuang, who was causing trouble, had not been beaten out, a car was pushed out first.
Seeing the carts piled with wine jars and meat, the people were very happy: "Mrs. Wu, are you worried that we are too tired from watching the fun? Do you want to give us something to eat and drink?"
Crowds of people gathered in front of the Yamen, ready to wait for the order.
"Don't move, this is my thing."
There was a sound coming from inside the yamen, and then someone came out. The lights from the yamen and the street were bright, shining on this person.
The whole place fell silent for a moment.
The young man wearing a brocade robe has a handsome figure. A sword studded with precious stones shines in his waist, reflecting the dazzling colors of his angular features. A delicate flower blooming on the temples beside his ears makes his face look even more beautiful.
soft.
This beauty is...
"Xiang Ling! Why did you, a thief, escape?" someone shouted.
Xiang Qiubeard's originally cold expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at the person calling out: "Don't call me Xiang Ling, I am Xiang Qiubeard." He took his hand back and stroked the flowers on his temples, with an arrogant look on his face, "And I'm not a thief either.
Mrs. Wu has invited me to be her guest, and these are her gifts to me."
Xiang Qiu pointed to the car in front of the door and raised the golden sword with both hands.
The quiet crowd became noisy again, this person was the thief who was escorted in!
The deeds of the thieves had just been spread among the victims of the military camp who followed.
The thieves were not driven out of Dou County. Instead, they became Mrs. Wu's servants and gave them so many treasures.
"Why?" countless people asked.
Xiang Qiu beard is arrogant: "Of course it's because I have special skills and strong kung fu."
Isn’t it because of the face? Many people have had this thought.
"You are a liar." A fellow soldier in the military camp who had dealt with him shouted angrily, "You must have deceived Mrs. Wu."
Xiang Qiu's beard is now flying on the branch. He is no longer angry at being criticized by these sparrows. He puts his hands on his hips and laughs: "I was in the hall just now, fighting with the guards. Seeing my extraordinary skills, Mrs. Wu gave the hero a sword on the spot.
Ask me to be her escort."
Is this so? Everyone looked at the guards who followed him. The guards looked unhappy, but they did not refute Xiang Qiubeard's words.
The officers pushing the cart threw it down: "We've sent it out of the Yamen, please do as you please."
Mrs. Wu only said that she would send it out, but did not say that it would be delivered to her home.
Xiang Qiubeard did not argue with his defeated generals. He put the sword back on his waist and looked at everyone: "Whoever helps me push the cart, I will give him a jar of wine and invite him to eat meat together."
Although not as generous as Mrs. Wu, she still doesn't mind eating and drinking for free. A group of people rushed forward. There were too many people and the car was not pushed but lifted up. Xiang Qiu bearded walked along the street surrounded by people.
Go, the laughter echoes throughout half the street.
Many people dispersed in front of the Yamen.
Wu Ya'er pulled down his hat: "It's time to start."
Lao Han, who had been in a hurry to leave, didn't move. Wu Ya'er turned around and saw him staring at her.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome." Old Han stretched out his hand and pinched Wu Ya'er's hat, looking at the face covered with dust and unkempt beard, "You are much more handsome than this kid. If you go in and do some kung fu, you will see the young lady."
Already?"
Wu Ya'er flicked his hand away: "Get out."
The front of the county government office is brightly lit, while the back house is a little dim. There are two alleys passing by.
"When she is not in the back office, it does not necessarily mean that the defense is not tight." Wu Ya'er whispered, lowering his hat, taking three steps and two steps into the dark alley.
Lao Han did not follow closely, but went in another direction. His rough body was not as clumsy as the rocks in the dim light, and he disappeared in a flexible leap.
Li Minglou walked through the road between the front office and the back house. Fang Er, who was following closely, raised his hand to signal, and the figure shook and retreated in the dim courtyard.
"This Xiang Ling's skills are indeed good." Yuanji said.
"So her name is Xiang Ling?" Li Minglou said with a smile.
Yuanji has already obtained Xiang Qiubeard's information, which shows that he came with several fellow villagers. When he logged in, he reported his name as Xiang Qiubeard, but the fellow who was separated and logged in at another place said his name was Xiang Ling.
Set up more than three registration clerks at the inspection place, and they did not hesitate to let the government take care of food, drink, and pay high wages to recruit many idle people who can write. Not only the people from Dou County, but also Mrs. Wu Shaoxin
I sympathize with everyone's hard work in order to have enough manpower to log in information.
Anyone who comes together will register separately and ask for information separately. The purpose is not only to record what you say about yourself, but also what others say about you.
"His father gave birth to Xiang Ling, and he gave birth to Xiang Qiu beard by himself." Yuan Ji said, "His father was not engaged in childbirth, so he took him around to make friends and hang out with nothing to do. He got drunk and fell into the lake and drowned, leaving him alone.
, his heroic actions in his hometown caused a lot of lawsuits and he couldn't stay any longer, and there was a drought in the area, so he followed a few fellow villagers out to find a living and went all the way to Dou County."
Li Minglou walked slowly down the dim corridor with a smile in his voice: "Do they stay in each place for a long time?"
Yuan Ji nodded in agreement and asked again: "Xiang Ling, does the lady want to spend thousands of gold to buy horse bones?"
Although Mrs. Wu's name spread, people in Dou County still came to Li Minglou for military camps or looking for a livelihood supported by the prestige of the government.
Xiang Qiu’s move tonight will definitely give many people new ideas.
After all, not everyone is suitable to be a Minzhuang.
Li Minglou stepped over the threshold, and Jin Jue took her cloak.
"It would be nice if it could be like this." She answered Yuanji's question, because it involved how Yuanji would deal with this matter next. People are always scarce, and she was willing to have more and more people join her. "It's just this matter.
I think Xiang Qiubeard is also very interesting."
Interesting?
Yuan Ji was about to follow him across the threshold, but Fang Er suddenly appeared again: "When the young lady went to the front, there were several people here who were approaching and wanted to come in. Two people were already taken alive. One of them escaped and had to be shot."
"It's not surprising, Ande Zhong will definitely want to investigate us carefully." Li Minglou turned around in the room and didn't care, "We should let him see it, let him see it, let him see it, we shouldn't let him see it.
, he can’t see, how far west Zhejiang is, he doesn’t dare to be too distracted by us now, just drag him.”
Yuan Ji and Fang Er responded yes.
Li Minglou continued to say to Xiang Qiubeard: "He really wants to be a ranger, not for fame and fortune, but just to do the work of a ranger. It is very interesting to live such a simple life. For me, it can help him escape from depression and live an interesting life.
Very interesting.”
Xiang Qiubeard didn't care how Yuanji lived, he just smiled and the lady was happy.
"Moreover, Xiang Qiubeard looks weird, so he must be a good person." Li Minglou continued, "Everyone was uneasy all the way because of him, but those villagers followed him all the time, which shows that they trust him."
The lady was really happy, like a child seeing a new toy. Yuanji's face softened a bit. The lady was still a child.
"Yes." He nodded, "When he was arrested in the military camp, his fellow villagers did not speak for him, but they all ran to express their intention to follow Xiang Qiubeard if he was driven away."
Li Minglou smiled, then looked at the wall: "Where is Mingyu now?"
Yuanji stretched out his hand and pulled open the covered painting, revealing the map behind it. Jinju lit two lamps and placed them in front of him before stepping away.
The room became brighter and people's figures shone out.
Wu Ya'er hangs upside down on the eaves. There seem to be a lot of people and a lot of female voices.
"Madam, let's go burn some chestnuts to eat."
"OK."
A clear female voice asked happily, and a gentle female voice answered, which together with the sound of footsteps penetrated the thick brocade curtain.
Wu Yaer's hair stood on end.
At the moment when his body tensed up, he instinctively shook his head, and there was a clang, and fire splashed on the eaves tiles.
A female voice exclaimed, and the door curtain that was about to be lifted fell, and the room fell silent for an instant.
In the dim night, there were strong winds blowing from all directions, and Wu Ya'er flew through it and climbed onto the roof. At the same time, there was the sound of rapid footsteps on the roof, interspersed with the sharp whistling of hidden weapons in the air.
Yuan Ji blocked Li Minglou behind him, Li Minglou held the woman's hand, and Jin Ju squeezed in front of them.
The young lady needs more guards. There are more and more people coming to harm the young lady. Jin Jue raised his ears and held his breath to listen to what was going on outside.
