Chapter 63 No one sleeps tonight
The old servant was very skilled, with bright ears and eyes. Hu Qingfeng and his group were crowded with steps. He noticed it before he got close. He hurriedly pulled Wang He to hide in the dark alley, holding his breath and waiting. When they approached, they first saw Butcher Ye's bearded face, holding two pig-killing knives, shining with cold light; others were hoes, axes, or sticks, and some were holding kitchen knives and spatulas, holding their heads, and running with murderous intent.
Wang He was surprised and hurriedly showed up to greet "Uncle Ye."
Butcher Ye was overjoyed when he saw them - he had seen this master and servant skills, and he could be a helper, and God helped me. He asked, "Why didn't you run away?"
Wang He asked him to borrow a step to speak in the alley.
Butcher Ye then went in with him.
Hu Qingfeng asked everyone to wait for a while, and he followed him in.
In the alley, Butcher Ye told Wang He's master and servant about the collusion between officials and businessmen and the disaster victims, and invited them to help and punish the dog officials.
Seeing that the situation was about to break out and there was no turning around, Wang He quickly made a decision after weighing the pros and cons. He asked, "How do you plan to deal with the aftermath?" He asked Butcher Ye, but his eyes were staring at Hu Qingfeng. He remembered this fresh and unconventional cattle dealer. These mobs were acting in unison, which showed that someone was planning and commanding behind the scenes. He did not think of this person as Butcher Ye, but was afraid of being a cow dealer.
Hu Qingfeng also heard Butcher Ye tell the skill of selling peach masters and servants, and wanted to pull them into the group. He did not hide it at the moment and said his plans; and he clasped his fists and said, "I would like to ask the girl and sister-in-law to help me and help the disaster victims!"
The old servant who was cursed by Wang He as a "sister-in-law" again: "..."
Wang He said, "Okay, I will help you! However, I am a little worried: If you kill him after you catch the dog official, the crime will be very serious; if you don't kill him, I'm afraid that when the court sent someone to investigate, he would bite him back and say that you led the victims to rebel and rob grain. What's the use of forcing him to write a confession?"
Hu Qingfeng and Butcher Ye were stunned when they heard this.
Butcher Ye said, "Bah, it's obvious that the officials are forcing the people to rebel!"
Hu Qingfeng raised his hand and told him not to be impulsive, and solemnly asked Wang He: "It's not unreasonable for the girl to worry. What about the girl's opinion?"
Wang He said: "According to the opinions of my younger generation, we must find a witness."
Hu Qingfeng said: "Who can be a witness?"
Butcher Ye said, "I have so many people, but I can't testify?"
Hu Qingfeng said angrily: "We are all in the same group."
Wang He thought to himself that the cattle dealer was indeed a little wise, unlike the butcher's rash. He offered a suggestion: "The county magistrate Hu can testify."
Hu Qingfeng said: "Mr. Hu is a timid and cowardly person. Although he is not harmful to others, he does nothing. How can he testify for us?"
Wang He said: "It's better to be cowardly! If the reselling of official grain by Liu's prefecture is not exposed, he will definitely avoid it and pretend to be confused. Now a riot is right in front of him. As the magistrate of Qinghua County, how can he get rid of the relationship? We are divided into two groups: our younger generation and Uncle Ye are here to capture the magistrate Liu, open the warehouse and release the grain; the uncle takes people to the county government to report the case and force the magistrate Hu to join forces with us. This is also a great opportunity for him to be promoted."
Hu Qingfeng said: "What if he doesn't agree?"
Wang He said decisively: "Look for county magistrate Pan Yue!"
This is the key to the overall situation!
Hu Qingfeng's eyes lit up and understood Wang He's plan: Pan Yue is a local snake and has some skills. Can he let such a great opportunity for promotion? He did not participate in reselling official grain. If he concealed it for the prefect of Liu, he became an accomplice. How could he take the blame? Besides, he doesn't have to stand up. He will expose and capture Prefect Liu. He just needs to report it truthfully when the court sends people to investigate, and then he can pick up a ready-made advantage, put aside the relationship and promote it, kill two birds with one stone!
Hu Qingfeng smiled and said, "If you convince County Magistrate Hu, you will have County Magistrate Lao Pan."
Wang He smiled and said, "Uncle is brilliant!"
Hu Qingfeng said: "It's a girl who is very insightful!"
Butcher Ye looked confused, looked at this and then at that, "What did you say?"
Wang He told him the reason, and this way, but Ye nodded. Wang He said to Hu Qingfeng again: "We are all mobs here, and there are local imperial guards in the abundant grain store. In order to avoid casualties, capture the thief first, capture the king. Mom goes in and captures the dog official. Uncle Ye and I are outside, and we should cooperate inside and outside."
The two of them hurriedly agreed and went out of the alley to inform the victims of the disaster.
Wang He whispered to the old servant for a while, and the old servant turned around and disappeared at the end of the alley.
Here, Wang He and Butcher Ye asked the victims to light the torches and took them to the gate of the Fengsheng Grain Store. Thousands of people blocked the long street where the Grain Store was located, and the fire shone on the sky. Butcher Ye stood in front of the team, waving a pig-killing knife, shouting, "Dog official resells official grain! Capture dog officials alive, open warehouses and release grain!"
"Catch the dog official alive!"
"Open the warehouse and release grain!"
Hundreds of people followed him.
The sound of the mountain collapse and tsunami alarmed Qinghua City in the sleeping state. For a moment, children cried and dogs barked one after another. Then they opened the door and drank, and each family got up to check and asked the neighbors for the reason.
Everyone was confused, for some reason.
There is a tile shed in front of the Fengsheng Grain Store. Four pillars are supported to protect the sun and block the rain. Wang He picked up more than a dozen strong men, demolished the shed, and put down the four pillars. Then each four people carried a pillar, shouted, and rushed to the gate of the Fengsheng Grain Store; the others picked up tiles and prepared to smash them for use.
The gate was shaking as four pillars hit.
The old servant sneaked into the yard with this momentum.
Unexpectedly, so many disaster victims came, and were discovered by the night patrol officers before they could be launched, and hurriedly reported to the prefect Liu. When the old servant entered, the imperial guards were waiting for the battle, and the upper room where the prefect Liu was located in the backyard was guarded by layers of imperial guards.
The old servant rushed straight into the room, as if he had entered a no-man.
A captain of the imperial army stood under the corridor and shouted, "Shoot! Shoot!"
Suddenly, the arrows were raining continuously.
These local imperial guards do not fight or train on weekdays, so they have no skills. They are just scheming. They look at the lively shooting, but they are not accurate. How could the old servant take them seriously? He immediately threw out a pebbles as a hidden weapon and hit the throat of the imperial guard captain, and the man fell to the ground.
The imperial guards panicked and shouted.
When Master Liu saw it in the window, he was frightened.
A few days ago, his son was broken by a peach-selling girl, and he was cut off his hair in a mess. However, the murderer didn't even see anyone, so he was really depressed. Later, he accepted Miss Tan San as his aunt. Miss Tan San had a round face, white skin, gentle and rich appearance, which was very suitable for him. He stayed in Aunt Tan's room every night, trying hard to make a son. Aunt Tan also hoped to be pregnant, and it was calculated that it would take twenty days to enter the mansion. This morning, he said that he was uncomfortable and called the doctor to ask for the Ping'an meridian. As a result, the number one meridian came out, but the life was still shallow and he could not be very sure. The doctor said that he would take another meridian after a few days. Even so, the prefect Liu was overjoyed. In addition, the business of abundant grain business was good and his daily income was worth gold. Liu decided that Aunt Tan was the one who was prosperous and his children would be prosperous. From then on, he would have a prosperous official career and his descendants would be prosperous, so he took Aunt Tan to take care of him.
In the evening, Tan Dong's family sent people to report on the situation of selling grain.
Aunt Tan was curious and asked a few questions.
The more Liu Zhifu looked at her, the more he loved her. He was impulsive and asked to take her to the grain shop to see the hot money scene. He would be refreshed and happy. Only when he was in a good mood could he give birth to a healthy and intelligent fat boy for him.
Aunt Tan was happy and got ready.
After dinner, the two left the house in a carriage.
When they arrived at the Successful Grain Store, not only did the people who worked in the Grain Store respect Aunt Tan, but even the Tan Dong family flattered and loved her daughter in various ways.
Aunt Tan is highly favored and very decent.
Unexpectedly, the victims came and they were panicked.
