"No, no, my lord, you must not do this! I am a court official, and I must not be tried on the same stage as a low-class Niu Er." Wang Youfu shook his head like a windmill and said.
"Why not? You have money and you can't spend it. Since money is more important than your life, then you need money and don't be ashamed." Hu San teased.
"I doubt the identities of you guys!" Wang Youfu was still trying to find the right words.
"This is easy to handle. I happen to have the imperial edict issued by the emperor with me." After saying that, Hu San took out a scroll of paper from his arms, unfolded it, and read loudly, "I ordered the emperor's brother Pan You'an to march against the Japanese."
The commander-in-chief, the governor-general of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian, and other matters. He is in charge of the army and the people. If there are corrupt officials, corrupt officials, incompetent officials, or officials who have done nothing, they should be punished on the spot. If there are officials who collaborate with the enemy, they must be interrogated strictly. The crime is heinous.
The offender will be severely punished without mercy, and he will be executed on the spot first and then his head will be displayed to the public..."
While Hu San was reading out the imperial edict, Wang Youfu took a sneak peek at the jade seal the size of a dog's head and signed it. Although he had never seen the jade seal, he had seen the imperial edict, and his appointment letter is still in his study!
The fabric of the imperial edict is exactly the same as this one. It doesn't look like a forgery. Besides, which Chinese people are so full that they can create a fake edict and bring a bunch of people to fight with the Japanese? Thinking about it, his head
Beads of sweat suddenly rolled down like raindrops. He knew that his official career had come to an end and his misfortune was about to begin. In fact, before this, he had vaguely felt that this group was definitely not human. The reason why he insisted on going his own way was...
He is partial to foreign invaders because he has benefited from the Japanese, and it is not because he has the intention to be a traitor. The Japanese are too powerful. Since he cannot eradicate the Japanese invaders, he can only live in peace and not disturb each other. As for the people, he
He couldn't control that much. He ate royal food, and the people didn't give him a tael of silver. He also enjoyed a salary from the Japanese. Although he didn't have a formal position, it was common sense that he had to do things for others when he was paid. He thought
No one will notice what happened to him in his life, and who would have thought that a fake eunuch would appear on the way, and his life will be miserable!
"That's the case, Mr. Hu," Wang Youfu didn't give up and wanted to make a desperate struggle. He said, "I just obey your order. I can't get so much silver. If you go into the cage, go into the cage. But there is one thing, let's
I have to put myself first as a villain and then as a gentleman.”
"Say it!" Hu San didn't even raise his eyelids.
"What kind of equipment is there in the cage, such as the size, whether it is strong or not, how to solve the water and fire problems, etc.? You should think about these carefully, right?" Wang Youfu racked his brains to think of questions and conditions.
Hu San waved his hand and said: "Without General Wang's instructions, the cages are ready-made, just the two iron cages that your General Wang ordered to customize. It is said that there were four pairs, two of them were extremely rusty, and these two are the only ones still in use.
It is vacant in front of your mansion. Of course, since the wood has become the boat and the rice has become the rice, we cannot change the size of the iron cage. You can just make do with it for once. General Wang must be very familiar with the structure of those two cages.
"
"No, no, that's a cage for tigers! The cage is too small. I can't stand up straight, sit up, or stretch. How can I do it? Don't you want to punish me to death?" Wang Youfu roared.
"What are you shouting for? Why can't I wait until now to kill you? Is there ever a tiger in a cage?"
"The tiger has never been locked up."
"What has passed?"
"Those who are lawless and troublesome, resist donations and taxes, and are big thieves."
"Are they human?"
"They are human beings, how can they compare with me? I am a court official."
"Have they ever betrayed the country? Is there any worse scandal than betraying the country?"
Wang Youfu was speechless.
There is a small square in front of the Haicheng Governor's Mansion. It is usually silent here. Passers-by come and go in a hurry and they never dare to make loud noises. There are dozens of soldiers lined up in front of the mansion, holding swords and guns.
, hawks and harriers look at each other, all of them are like tigers and wolves. Who dares to provoke these godsons of the Lord of Hell? What is different is that there is no mascot like a lion in front of the house, but there are two mascots on the left and right.
The iron cage is a treasure of the king's governor. Usually, any robbers or unruly people who refuse to pay the grain will be put into the cage. The robbers will not be killed until they are killed, and the tax resisters will not be allowed to eat until they have collected all the grain and rice.
They could be released. Later, a clause was added: if a Chinese offended a Japanese, and the Japanese complained, the Chinese would be imprisoned in a cage. Only when the Japanese calmed down, forgave the offender and paid a certain fine, could the Chinese be released.
Something strange has happened now, and the person who built the cage has been imprisoned in an iron cage? Who is Niu Er? Almost everyone in Haicheng knows. Who is Mr. Wang? Who in Haicheng doesn't know? The child is going to cry.
, the adults all frightened and said: "Don't cry, cry again, the governor is here!" The child's cry suddenly stopped. The two were celebrities, but their identities were very different. One was the descendant of a prince, general, and minister, and the other was a local ruffian.
How could the two of them be together?
Wang Youfu was the leader and was taken to the cage on the left. The two cows were not in the flow and were put in the cage on the right. Originally, the cages were separated by a distance, but now for the convenience of management, they are simply put together. If nothing happens, they can be
Buddy. There are three warning signs in front of the cage, with the word "DANGER" written on them. The remaining items are:
"First, please do not get close to the iron cage to prevent you from being scratched, bitten, or having dirt sprayed on you from the prisoner's mouth, which will ruin your good mood. Second, please do not throw stones, clods, or bricks.
Blocks, etc., do not irritate the offenders and make everyone unhappy. Third, please do not put food, water, tea, wine, etc., so as not to cause indigestion to the offenders, otherwise you will have to spend money on medical medication."
The font is between the Liu and Wei styles, the writing is strong and vigorous, the writing is sharp, the wording is appropriate, and the grammar is rigorous. There is no need to ask whether this work must have been written by Mr. Hu Sanhu.
Two tigers in Haicheng were locked in a cage, which immediately caused a sensation in the whole city. Suddenly, every house was closed, the streets were deserted, and people were jostling shoulder to shoulder in front of the governor's office. Mr. Hu had foreseen this and sent capable soldiers to maintain order.
Queue up to enter, and you are only allowed to watch but not stay. In this way, the order is orderly, and at least one person in every household of the entire Haicheng City has been able to admire the faces of these two celebrities.
After the sun went down, the visitors were evacuated and the venue was cleaned, and then someone took care of the dirt under the cage.
Niu Er is a casual street gangster, urinating everywhere is commonplace. No matter how many people there are, he will always take off his pants and take out his clothes to make things convenient. Wang Youfu is different. He is a fourth-grade official.
The phoenix has been removed from the shelves, but it is still different from the chicken. A tiger can never associate with a dog, so he cannot do what Niu Er does anyway. He can't hold back his poop, but he can't hold his urine. As the saying goes, a living person can't
He couldn't hold back his urine, so the governor Wang's pants were in trouble. He peed so many times that day, it was watery and smelly. When no one was around, he hurriedly took off his pants, turned his face, and put his hands out.
Squeezing the water, Niu Er teased from the side:
"Brother, why bother? At that point, you just take out the things and scatter them, and that's it. You really want to save face and suffer!"
"Bah! Who is your brother? Shut up, you idiot, I am the court official!" Wang Youfu yelled angrily from across the cage.
As the saying goes, one moment and another moment, how could Niu Er look at Wang Youfu with a broken spine? He cursed disdainfully:
"A dog's ball! You are the court official, and I am the son-in-law of the Jade Emperor! I have given you a huge favor by calling you brother. Who do you think you are now? As an official, you eat royal food. What you did was a shameful thing. Who in the whole sea city doesn’t know about the things you did, including cheating and colluding with the Japanese?"
"Don't dare to talk nonsense!" Wang Youfu turned green with fright after hearing Niu Er's words. He whispered, "Brother, if mountains and rivers don't change, it's okay for us to eat from the same river. Dare to spread the word, the imperial envoy is looking for trouble with me!"
"That's pretty much it. Why don't you call me brother! Let's be even." Niu Er is a man who would suck out half a drop of blood if he catches a flea.
"Why should I call you brother? Look at your virtue!" Wang Youfu forgot what time it was.
"Then I'll shout, the man named Wang is a traitor. Everyone in Haicheng knows it. Come and see!" Niu Er let out his voice and threatened.
"No, no, why don't I call you brother?" Wang Youfu hurriedly waved his hand to stop him in a low voice. He had to compromise even if he encountered such a scoundrel who took advantage of others.
In the wall room, the brothers were drinking. The young eunuch didn't agree with Hu San's tricks and said:
"Brother, do you think Wang Youfu will really explain the major issue of his surrendering to the enemy and treason, or even reveal the home base of the Japanese?"
Hu San picked up a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brother, the former surnamed Wang couldn't part with his huge wealth. Now that we have dried it up, he has become a pauper. What else can he not let go of? He was born in a general's family. , had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, how had he ever received such inhuman treatment? In addition, there were people coming and going in front of the house, and people were pointing, some of whom he knew, and some of whom he did not know. He was originally a decent figure who moved the wind and rain in Haicheng. Now that he has become a caged object, can he afford to throw this person away? If you don’t believe it, just listen to the good news. It’s only been one day, and within three days, Wang Youfu will definitely have some reaction.”
