What happened in Xia County is not yet known to Pei Xiaoer. He has been searching in Shangwangzhuang for three days, and there has been no news for these three days. Whether it is using money to encourage each other to report, or ordering to hide Wang Zhuang.

The Wang family and his son were executed for the same crime. He even pulled out all the people in Shangwangzhuang and searched every house, but there was still no trace. It was as if the Wang family and his son had disappeared from the world.

At the same time, the daily life of the people in Xiawangzhuang was greatly affected, and the public grievances became deeper and deeper. In the end, Pei Xiaoer had no choice but to order the village gate to be opened daily, so that people could come in and out at will, and at the same time secretly asked the gatekeepers to pay close attention to the entrance and exit.

personnel.

The sun was shining brightly on this day, but the autumn tiger was still reluctantly emitting the residual heat. Three donkey carts filled with manure and water slowly drove from the village towards the gate. The stench along the way was so offensive that anyone who smelled it would cover their noses and stay away.

Before they even reached the door, the soldier guarding the door stepped forward and asked, "What are you loading in this car?"

"Back to Jun Ye, it's the excrement in the huts on the farm. Now there's too much, so I have to dump it outside and let the fertilizer go out, and then spread it on the crops next year, so that next year's crops can be harvested." The person who pulls the dung is

An old man in his fifties and his two sons looked timid and looked like they had never seen the world.

After hearing this, the officer guarding the gate looked at the big barrel on the carriage with disgust. This barrel was really big and could accommodate three or four people. The officer instinctively wanted to stay away, but he thought of the hateful military judges in the army.

Face, shrinking neck.

"Open everything for routine inspection"

"Master, it's all excrement. It smells very bad. I'm afraid it will irritate Master, so let's forget it."

Hearing what he said, the officer who had no suspicion at first became suspicious. He pulled out his saber and said, "Open it, otherwise you will not be shot."

The old man had no choice but to obey the order and open the lids of the three buckets one by one. Suddenly a stench hit his nostrils. The officer was also loyal to his duty and went to the toilet to check despite the stench.

The bucket was full of black and yellow stuff, which was disgusting. The officer was still uneasy and ordered people to grow branches. He roughly calculated the height of the bucket in his mind and then used the branch to poke it down to the bottom of the bucket.

, and stirred a few times along the edge.

After confirming that there was indeed no one hiding inside, he didn't even take out the branches, and jumped aside. He said to the old man beside him with a low eyebrow, "Gungun, get rid of it quickly."

"Okay, Master, let's go now," the old man said, closing the lid and gently whipping the donkey with the whip in his hand. After receiving the message, the donkey rang the bell and walked towards the outside of the village.

Behind him, the officer spat and cursed, then ignored him.

The donkey cart left the village gate and walked forward on the official road for an hour, and finally stopped in a remote corner. The old man who drove the cart dumped the excrement and water on the cart, and then the three of them worked together to clear the cart.

The big bucket was lifted down, and then he walked to the car and removed a wooden board on the car, revealing a hidden box.

This box is extremely narrow, with only room for one person to curl up and lie on his side in it, unable to even raise his head. And if it’s not Wang Yuanwai, which one is hidden in the box?

At this time, Wang Yuanwai looked extremely embarrassed. He was dressed in tattered linen clothes, which were even dripping with excrement that had seeped through. His whole person looked smelly and dirty.

While the king was arranging his clothes outside, the father and son had already brought out Mrs. Pei and Wang Silang. All three of them were filthy and could not be seen.

Fortunately, the old man actually hid some clean clothes here. After changing them for the three of them, they finally got rid of the ugly appearance just now.

Wang Yuanwai cupped his hands towards the old man and said, "Thank your master for me. I will ask him to come to Anyi to collect the remaining silver when I get there."

The old man smiled honestly, replied, "Okay", then got on the donkey cart, whipped lightly, and the donkey cart slowly walked away along the official road.

Wang Yuanwai watched the donkey cart go away and sighed, "Let's go too." He said and walked towards Anyi.

Unexpectedly, not long after walking, as soon as I turned a corner, there was a man riding this horse leading hundreds of soldiers who had been waiting for a long time.

"Uncle Wang, I have an invitation from General Pei, why are you running away?" It was Li Chang.

Going to Wangzhuang, Pei Xiaoer quietly watched the man in front of him talking in front of him without being humble or arrogant, "So, it was you who planned the escape of Wang and his son by hiding in the secret compartment of the donkey cart?"

"You can say that"

"Let the military judge see who is guarding the gate today. Take off his hat and twenty sticks," Pei Xiaoer said without even replying.

"Yes", a soldier beside him took the order and left.

"Then why did you come to me to report Wang and his son?" Pei Xiaoer was a little confused.

"That's because," the visitor said with a rare self-deprecation, "because the calligraphy and painting that he gave me to buy my life was fake."

"Fake?" Pei Xiaoer couldn't believe it and repeated it again.

"Yes, it's fake." The visitor felt helpless and said again.

Haha, Pei Xiaoer couldn't help laughing anymore. He never thought that the king could fake such things? Maybe he never knew since he bought it that this so-called authentic work of Yan Zhenqing is actually

It's fake, it's a fake. It's really sad and deplorable.

The visitor felt helpless when he heard Pei Xiaoer laughing so wildly. He has never been so embarrassed since he was a child. However, he never expected that a person would even fake the money he paid for his life. So.

He was careless for a moment and found out that the Wangs and his son had already gone out. In a rage, he told Pei Xiaoer that the Wangs and his son had escaped.

"I've finished my business. I'll take my leave." The visitor didn't say much, turned around and left.

Pei Xiaoer stepped forward to stop him and said, "Are you leaving now?"

The visitor's whole body tensed up instantly, as if facing a formidable enemy, "Why do you still want to stop me?"

Pei Xiaoer looked at the other person's nervous expression this time and smiled, "Don't be nervous, I won't do anything to you. On the contrary, you are a talent, and I admire you very much. If one day you stay somewhere else,

If you can’t go down anymore, you are welcome to come to my place.”

The visitor looked at Pei Xiaoer's eyes and said for a long time: "Okay, if one day I can't stay any longer, I will come back and join you."

"Okay, then let's make an agreement," Pei Xiaoer said, extending his fist and saying, "A gentleman's words."

The man was stunned for a moment, then he also extended his fist and bumped into Pei Xiaoer, "It's hard to catch up with a horse."

"Take care" the man turned around and left.
