Liu Xianglian said with concern: "I don't think a good man looks like a man with a family, so why don't you keep this girl for your own use instead of giving others an advantage?"

Xu talked about the bandit leader's sore leg, his bearded face darkened, and his mood suddenly became depressed, and he frowned: "I think the Feng family gave too much! The brothers objected, so I had to give it up.

She is being sold out, and how can such a lithe and tender girl be willing to sleep in the open air with a rough old man like me? If I take her in, I will turn into a bastard sooner or later!"

Liu Xianglian couldn't help but glance at the bearded man, he was quite self-aware.

"I know Feng Yuan. He has always been a good man. How could he possibly buy a girl? Maybe you have been deceived!"

"nonsense!"

The bearded man retorted: "Since you guessed it, I won't hide it from you. This girl was indeed bought by Feng Yuan, and our brothers know about his masculine style! So this time I showed mercy and liked women.

Only the entire Feng family is willing to pay so much money!"

It's indeed her!

Zhen Yinglian!

Or Xiangling!

Originally, Liu Xianglian didn't have much interest in either Yinglian or Xiangling.

There are many suffering people in the world, and I am not a Bodhisattva who can be saved by the Almighty.

But things are different now. I am injured and even imprisoned. My master and senior sister are missing. I don’t know whether Uncle Yan Qing, who came to me for free medical treatment, is alive or dead. All of this is thanks to the monk Laitou!

Liu Xianglian's philosophy of life has always been to repay kindness with kindness and repay grievance with kindness!

I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will eradicate them!

Instructor Mao taught us that we support whatever the enemy opposes, and we oppose whatever the enemy supports.

The Laitou monk and the lame Taoist devoted themselves to promoting the scene in "A Dream of Red Mansions" in which "the birds that had eaten all their food had thrown themselves into the forest, leaving a vast expanse of white." Although Liu Xianglian didn't know what was fishy in it, she used force to overcome cleverness and twisted them all.

Didn't Xiangling's verdict end in tragedy? It was going to be ruined at the hands of Xue Pan?

Sorry, when I get here, the rules will have to be changed.

Then come and change the process yourself.

"Hero! That fellow Feng Yuan is just the son of a petty official. He must have emptied his family's fortune if he can give out three hundred taels. As the saying goes, good is better than too little, and since that fellow has spent so much money, he will definitely have someone waiting to deal with you.

brother."

The bearded man said with disdain: "How can we be punished? He is a down-and-out boy who can only live with a small income. If he offends us and gives him a knife, he will die in vain. How can he go against our brothers?"

.”

"Don't you know, a good man? Feng Yuan's father spent a lot of money to donate the identity of a Jin Yiwei to Feng Yuan! Jin Yiwei, you have always heard of it, right? Killing or burying, behead first and then show off. If you want to chop that one, chop that one! Although Feng Yuan

It’s a false position, but if your brothers touched him and refuted Jin Yiwei’s face, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be easy for him!?”

"Is there such a thing? Seriously?"

The bearded man murmured in his heart. Although he had no education, he had heard the story about the spring knife embroidered on the flying fish suit. If he really offended the Jin Yiwei, he wouldn't be able to chop off ten heads.

As soon as Liu Xianglian saw the bearded expression, she knew that the illiterate gangster probably believed it.

Don't be surprised. The lives of those high-ranking officials are far away from ordinary people. It has always been like this from ancient times to the present.

I am afraid that in some mountain valleys, it is still unclear whether the emperor or Yongle is the emperor.

How can ordinary people know what departments the imperial court has, who has been newly established, and who has been abolished?

I only know that the ones I have heard of must be very powerful and powerful yamen, such as Kaifeng Mansion, Sansi, Dongchang and Xichang, and of course Jinyiwei.

As soon as the bearded man heard about Jin Yiwei, his courage was innately weakened.

Liu Xianglian struck while the iron was hot: "Hero, is this true? You are a ranger in the green forest and have a wide network of friends. You can know the truth or falsehood of this kind of thing just by asking. How dare I lie in your hands?"

If you don’t believe it, just kill me!

I just saw that this girl is so good-looking, and I couldn’t bear to be tricked by Jin Yiwei’s stall to make money off of her. She got a free advantage, so I reminded you that if you don’t believe it, you can sell this girl to Feng Yuan at will. When the time comes, the talent will be beaten.

It's too late to regret it."

Liu Xianglian was sweating all over his back now. If he couldn't deceive these gangsters, who were either kidnappers or human beings, I'm afraid he would become the most miserable time traveler in history and be killed by a few nameless sidekicks.

As long as they find someone who knows a little about the officialdom to inquire, Liu Xianglian's lie will be exposed immediately.

The bearded man looked in a trance, doubtful, and looked at Liu Xianglian strangely. This was the first time he had seen a person who cared about the kidnapper.

However, Lu Xiu had heard someone say that there must be a monster when things go wrong, so he still said cautiously: "This matter is of great importance. I will wait until I ask my two brothers before I argue! Boy, you are very sensible, as long as what you say is true.

, I guarantee you will live!"

Liu Xianglian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the bandit leader didn't investigate immediately, there would be much more room for maneuver.

It was an unexpected blessing to get the bandit leader's safety guarantee.

"Boss, boss! Good news, good news!"

Just as they were talking, the same suspenseful voice from before came from outside the door. It seemed that there was more than one person at the scene.

"What good news, what all the fuss is about!"

The bearded man sat up and looked around, wondering: "Second brother, why are you and third child back?"

Liu Xianglian went to see the gangster's second son, and found that he looked quite upright. He had a public face and could quickly become invisible when thrown into a crowd!

What a good candidate to be an agent!

Liu Xianglian secretly thought that this was probably the white glove among the three brothers. He had an honest face and was unobtrusive. He was definitely a good player whether it was following the He family or kidnapping.

"Boss, I'm so happy! The prodigal son of the Xue family has also taken a fancy to us Yinglian! He offered five hundred taels, five hundred taels in cash! After doing this, let's go back to our hometown, buy more than ten acres of fertile land, and become a rich family.

Weng Chuo is more than enough!"

The common people of the Great Zhou Dynasty had a characteristic: they liked to go to strange places when they did bad things, and they liked to return home in fine clothes when they became prosperous.

The bearded man said happily: "It's really a good thing, then let's refund the Feng family's money and sell it to the Xue family!"

"Brother, don't rush to make a decision. Let's listen to the second brother's opinion before we talk! The second brother is well-informed and must be reliable!"

As Diao Shaoyan spoke, he took out beef, braised goose, roast chicken, pig's trotters and other meat dishes from his cloth bag, along with four or five jars of fine wine. It was obvious that this meal and drink was really expensive.

What is the most expensive thing these days?

Not sea cucumber, abalone, shark fin, lobster and other seafood, but beef!

The value of this thing is much more valuable than human life!

"Dazhou Law": Slaughtering all kinds of young and middle-aged cattle without permission is the same crime as murder! Anyone who eats it together will be punished as an accomplice!

This is not to say that the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was a fool. Like his neighbor, he believed that cattle were sacred objects and divine species and could not be desecrated.

Just because of the agricultural society, this thing plays a huge role in improving people's livelihood. A cow is even related to the farming issues of a village, so it cannot be ignored.

Every emperor who thinks he is a wise emperor will regard the people's rice bowls as his top priority. Only when the people's rice bowls are securely secured will he not have the time to pick a knife.

"Second brother, why do we need to refund the Feng family's money?"

As soon as the second child opened his mouth, Liu Xianglian knew what the second child was thinking.

Sure enough, greed is human nature in this world.

The bearded man sat down on the ground, tore off a chicken leg and gnawed it, muttering: "I want this, and I want that. We only have one Yinglian, how can we marry two women together?"

"Brother, Feng Yuan has seen Yinglian! The prodigal son of the Xue family has also seen Yinglian. Why do we only have one? These are obviously two Yinglians!"

The bearded man tore off a chicken leg and chewed it with big mouthfuls. His eyes kept changing, and he said after a long time: "This is against the rules."

"Rules? What are rules? I'm not afraid of the law, but I'm afraid of the rules? They are all tricks played by those meat-eating officials to fool ignorant people. Have we ever experienced the slightest benefit of rules since we were young?"

The second child said disdainfully.

"Yes, boss, what the second brother said is right! People die for money, birds die for food! The brave will be killed by starvation, and the timid ones will be starved to death. What we are doing is a business of losing our heads, and we still have to deal with the rules. It's not easy for the second brother.

Once this line is connected, why don’t we make money if we have money?”

The bearded man thought for a long time and still couldn't make up his mind, so he decided to ask his shrewd second brother about Feng Yuan.

"Second brother, have you heard about Mr. Feng Yuan donating an official position to him?"

The second child thought for a moment and then nodded: "Well...that's what happened."

This second-in-command has been hanging out in Jinling all year round. He inquires about every trivial matter, not to mention that his hard work pays off.

After inquiring like this, he really found out a lot of secrets.

Although Feng Yuan's father died young, he was really willing to spend money to pave the way for his son.

At that time, I spent two to three hundred taels of silver to donate a vacant school officer. Although this guy didn't pay his salary on time, his annual salary was only about ten stones.

But Feng Yuan always showed his filial piety to his superiors every year, so the official status he donated should still be there.

The bearded man's face changed: "Since the other party has an official status, how dare you do this!? You must return the Feng family's deposit tomorrow! Do you hear me!"

We are all adults, even if we are brothers, no one will tolerate anyone else's bad temper.

The second child frowned: "Boss, the older you get, the less courage you have! If I don't quit, no one is allowed to quit. If I quit, we will break up! A mere idle official position as big as sesame seeds and mung beans will scare the shit out of you.

Can Lao San and I point to you to protect us with force?"

"Stupid! What kind of officials are as big as sesame seeds and mung beans? There are some high officials in the court, so we don't have to be afraid of them! Some officials are small, but they have great power and authority, so you dare to mess with them!?"

The eldest brother was so immature that he almost got on top of the second eldest son and slapped him awake.

"Cough...cough! Can you two big guys listen to what I have to say?!"

Liu Xianglian knew that it was time for her to appear. This second brother was obviously a lone wolf, greedy and cunning, and he must have some knowledge of Feng Yuan's background.

Even if you don't know much about it, you will never spit out the meat you eat. So if you continue to investigate what is almost a certainty, Liu Xianglian's life will not be good for a few days.

How to snatch the meat out of the mouth of a lone wolf?

Of course, it is to throw him another piece of meat that is fatter and fresher!

If it's poisonous, even better.
