In the next two days, accompanied by Lu Dabao, Wu Zhixian and others, I visited the scenery of Dongping County with Meng Heitan. Although Dongping County is not big, the scenery is as beautiful as a picture. After serving it, Meng Heitan was also in a happy mood.

I often talked about martial arts with Song Qiufeng. The Huashan School has its own strengths and has benefited a lot in the past few days.

Meng Yue asked me when I would go back to Beijing. I said I would be going back to Beijing these two days to report. Meng Yue said it would be better to go back to the city together, and there would be a response on the road. I beat me up. It was Captain Meng who took care of me. But after I left, please ask Brother Song to take care of my family. Song Qiufeng would not refuse.

Two days later, Meng Yue and I set out on the road back to Beijing. Lu Dabao and others prepared local specialties. Meng Yue was really good. It was inconvenient to hold these things, so it would be better to convert them into silver notes.

Just as he was about to set off, County Magistrate Wu asked, Brother Qin, your cousin Wu De is still in prison, you see?

I slapped my forehead, and I forgot my memory. As I said this, I explained it like this and this.

When he returned to the county jail, Wu Deser shrank and squatted behind a prison bully to massage his back. When I saw that he had a yellow face and thin skin over a few days, he suffered a lot. It seemed that the magistrate Wu was quite taking care of him.

Seeing the arrival, Wu De rushed over as if he had seen his own father. Big cousin, come and save me!

I sighed deeply, brother, I did my best! Wu De's face turned gray, as if he had lost his soul. Today I started a surgery and asked for it. I asked for some connections before I came to deliver you a meal.

The prison bar said, "Boy, you have a last meal. It's useless to eat it, and you'll go on your way."

The silenced rice, also known as the Eight Bowls, was originally a rule set by Zhao Kuangyin when he was the emperor, and he gave humane care to death row prisoners. However, most death row prisoners could not eat it. In addition, the prisoner deducted rice, which was later reduced to four large bowls, and then it was just a meat and a vegetable, but no matter what, wine was essential.

Wu De said, cousin, I did something wrong before, I have really changed my past few days. I really didn’t kill anyone. Can you help me beg me for the mercy of the master!

I said with a decisive look. Today we are brothers, and we will still be good brothers in the next life! Come on, this is your favorite mutton with fried shrimp and fried shrimp. I remember that when you were a child, you could eat three big bowls of rice every time you saw these dishes.

Wu De looked at me with tears in his eyes, unable to speak.

I comforted me and said, "Eat, eat, and if you don't eat, you won't have a chance to eat."

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) As he said this, he handed it over. Wu De picked up the chopsticks and shed tears. When he saw the food, it turned out to be boiled rapeseed in white water. He said, "Cousin, it's too vegetarian to eat!"

It's okay, then have a drink!

Wu De picked up the wine bowl, drank a big sip, and sprayed all over the floor! Brother, the wine was mixed with a lot of water!

I told the prison chief that you have deducted food too much. The prison chief repeatedly compensated me, blame me, blame me!

The prison head said that the time was coming, and the two of them dragged Wu De out of the prison, walked to the door of the prison, shouted at the executioner, handed over it!

The executioner grabbed Wu De and shouted: I've collected it!

There is also knowledge here. This kind of delivery must be clarified. If the prisoner says that the prisoner has handed over, the executioner has confiscated it and the prisoner is hit and killed on the wall, then the responsibility is the prisoner. Therefore, whenever the prisoner is executed, the prisoner must shout these two words.

Wu De's feet were dragged out by the executioner. Wu De was so scared that he didn't dare to let out a sip. He had long been as limp as mud, and came out of the White Tiger Gate to the execution ground.

Wu De looked at me and said, "Brother, why don't you come to a robbery?" I said it's okay if I robbery the robbery, and our relatives and neighbors all suffered disasters, so you can bear it."

Wu De said, then you might as well give me some fun.

Wu De was tied up and escorted to the guillotine.

At noon, the executioner shouted that the time was coming! County Magistrate Wu sat on the punishment platform, reached out to pick up the brush, dipped it in cinnabar, waved it, Wu De from the audience, asked to kill today! As he said that, he drew a fork on his name, folded it into a triangle, and inserted it on Wu De's neck.

Wu De, do you have any last words to explain?

Wu De said, Brother Executioner, be gentler later, if it is too troublesome, don’t kill it.

As he said that, he put his head on Wu Demeng. The executioner drank a sip of wine, shouted with a heavy evil spirit, and asked for a blow!

Wu De was so scared that he collapsed on the ground and even peed his pants. I laughed loudly beside me. Wu De took off his hood and saw that the rest of him were looking at him and laughing, am I not dead?

Several relatives said, "You are not dead!" Wu De said angrily at me, "The brotherly love that has been agreed upon is deep, and there is no more basic trust between people!"

The crowd took Wu De back without a detailed statement. That afternoon, Meng Yue and I rode a horse away from Dongping County and set off for Beijing.

My parents sent ten miles all the way, but let Lu Dabao and Wu Magistrate follow him all the way. Liu Bancheng and his son were also released a day ago. Money could make the ghosts beat him, according to Meng Yue's private

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) It is revealed that their family spent at least 50,000 taels of silver. I don’t care about these things. As long as they don’t cause trouble for our family, what will they do if they live or die?

Along the way, I talked to Meng Yue about Lu Dabao and others. Meng Yue did not shy away. The salary of officials in the Ming Dynasty was extremely low. Although the court repeatedly issued three orders and issued three strict and three real and eight regulations, they were all distorted when they were implemented at the grassroots level.

Three years after the Qing Dynasty prefect was 100,000 silver dollars, not to mention these old officials, Liu Bancheng's family was scraped three feet away and collected a small amount of 100,000 taels of silver.

No wonder people in the world want to be an official. No matter how much this businessman can make money, even if Shen Wansi was rich at that time, he would eventually be confiscated and sent to be exiled by Emperor Taizu, and at least he would have escaped. In the dynasty, some wealthy families who offended the government were tortured by a small ninth-rank magistrate. The ancients said that the magistrate who confiscated the family and the magistrate who destroyed the family would not be bullied!

Isn't this the same thing for the escort agency? Since ancient times, collusion between officials and businessmen should be mutual assistance and mutual benefit. Making money with big money is the wonderful way to make money. Didn't the Central Plains escort agency dominate the escort agency industry by escorting the imperial merchants and imperial grain for several years? It was only after the case of Zhao Tianhao, the former chief escort, who lost his escort, gradually declined.

Two days later, we arrived at Dezhou Prefecture. Meng Heitan said he wanted to see a few people and took me to go with him.

Dezhou was the place where King Zhu Kuaibo of Qi was enfeoffed. After the night banquet in the palace, Zhu Kuaibo served as the director of the Tiandihui Committee. He launched a ruthless attack on the Tiandihui in various states in the Central Plains. He could act cheaply in various states, and his power was far above other vassal kings.

Among the 54 playing cards blacklists of Tiandihui, except for the masters including the king Huang Xiaoyu, the rest were arrested or killed. However, just as Tiandihui was eliminated, Manichaeism gained the benefits of fishermen, and took over the various industries of Tiandihui under the name of Tiandihui. Through a series of operations, they registered and issued a business license in the government, which turned into a legal business.

Half a month later, Xiaosheng published the resolutions of the Martial Arts Conference in Jianghu. Of course, the sanctions on the Demon Cult and some unpleasantness that occurred on the top of Taoshan Mountain were not mentioned. For the three words Qin Sanguan, there was no registration at all.

Meng Yue did not go to Dezhou Prefecture, but took me to a silk shop. When the old shopkeeper saw Meng Yue, he hurriedly let him into the inner room.
