In fact, Hu San only had to use a little force to climb up the wall, and then go down the wall. As long as he crossed the wall, he would have the world, and all the big things would become nothing. But he is a scholar after all, and he can climb up like this.
The tall trees were all split from the sky and the ground for the first time. When I was just trying to find a step to get down the slope, I unexpectedly ran into Wen Shichang and his group who were patrolling at night.
As mentioned earlier, Wen Shichang and his "Capture and Supervision Administration" are not an official organization. They just rented a place and put up this sign based on Wang Shugui's verbal instructions. Such a unit that is neither an enterprise nor a public institution has no
The higher-level departments did not allocate income, and over time, funding became a problem. Wen Shichang found Prime Minister Wang, but Lao Wang was also at a loss. He wanted to cancel it, but he did not give up. The little eunuch was a big problem for him, and he would not get rid of it for a day.
How can I give up and give up when my back is stabbed? Prime Minister Wang thought about it for a long time and finally came up with a plan and said:
"Xiao Wen, your people are idle when they are idle. Why don't you sleep during the day and go out to find some livelihood at night?"
Wen Shichang was puzzled and asked: "En Xiang, if you can't find anything to do during the day, what can you do for a living at night?"
Wang Shugui pointed out the puzzle and said: "The capital is such a large area. If you just search and dig, you can eat. How can a living person die of urination? There are civilized and military people among you. Send out a small team to patrol the night. If you catch a few
A lawless lunatic, even if he is beaten and punished, won’t he have something to eat?”
Wen Shichang was still a little confused. He was afraid that the prime minister would be angry if he asked too many questions. With the attitude of deepening his understanding during the implementation, he pretended to suddenly understand and said:
"The Prime Minister is a wise man, but in his humble position, just do as he is told."
Wang Shugui also explained some precautions and urged: "Don't conflict with the city defense troops, and avoid the imperial guards. If you encounter one, say that you are sent by the prime minister to watch the night to help maintain social order. You have the responsibility to report to me."
Even if I push it on my head, I hope they won’t dare to cause trouble for me.”
Wen Shichang nodded in praise.
The team made a success on the first day. They won the first battle and captured two smugglers of salt. Before they were sentenced, the two men shouted that they were willing to pay a certain amount of fines in order to reduce their crimes. What Wen Shichang wanted was money, and he ignored everything else.
Q. The two of them paid a large sum of money and left happily. Wen Shichang couldn't help but secretly give his thumbs up. After all, Jiang Lao was the boss, and he had to admire the old prime minister's clever move and scheming.
Hu San was taken to a deep courtyard. There was no plaque hanging at the door, but there was a signboard on the wall of the courtyard with the four characters "Capture and Supervision Office" written on it. He understood in his heart that he had encountered something he couldn't find. It turned out that this was the place where arrests were made.
Take the center of Big Brother. So he secretly made up his mind that the first step after going out was to destroy this illegal organization. At the same time, he also understood that he must not expose his true identity. Once this group of people knew who he was, his life would be in danger.
It's over.
"What's your name?" Wen Shichang asked.
"My name is Zhu San, sir." Hu San kneeled on the ground and answered sincerely.
"What for?" Wen Shichang asked again.
"I am a failed graduate. I have no money to go home and have been living in the capital." Hu San has seen the world, and of course he is also a first-rate lier.
Wen Shichang frowned, wondering why he was so unlucky that he caught a poor man. It seemed that he couldn't squeeze much money out of him. He wanted to let go, but he was unwilling to do so. He couldn't work for a long time in vain. He thought about it.
I want to ask again:
"Do you have any relatives or friends here?"
"No, not a single one. If there was any way, I, a scholar, would never steal anything."
"Then you have to pay some money, I can't let you go out for nothing." Wen Shichang said the truth.
"Let me go, and I'll send you ten taels of silver within three days." Hu San had already found out Wen Shichang's size, and wondered why Prime Minister Wang used such a rice bucket to do things.
"No, at least twenty taels." Wen Shichang bargained.
"Fifteen taels, maybe. I don't have much. It's not easy to save some money, and I can't give it all to you." Hu San played hard to get.
"Okay, I'll send someone to pick it up with you now. It's a joke to let you go out. You are a stranger. Where can we find you if you run away?" Wen Shichang is not easy to fool around with.
Hu San pondered for a moment, then came up with a good idea and said: "Behind the wall where you arrested me is a garden. I buried twenty taels of silver in the garden, and took it out to honor you with fifteen taels. I myself
Leave five taels to pay for your expenses and go home, what do you think, sir?"
"Then let's do it at night. During the day, we have bigger goals." Wen Shichang said.
He also thought about it. Fifteen taels of silver was not very cost-effective. Fortunately, he was just passing by. Anyway, he had to move every night, and flies had to live in vain. Once he got the money, he would throw the unlucky guy into that courtyard and help him.
Shout out a few times. A government office as big as Dali Temple is so vigilant. People can easily come in and out. I heard that a new person named Hu has been appointed as the chief minister. Let that fool solve this silly case.
Go for it!
Hu San spent a day squatting in the "Capture and Supervision Bureau". Wen Shichang showed mercy and even bought him some clothes to wear.
With the help of several people, Hu San climbed trees and walls much more smoothly.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement. Just as Lord Wen was about to ask a question, the soldier climbing on the tree shouted in a low voice:
"My lord, that bastard didn't dig any money at all. He just ran away as soon as he climbed over the wall!"
Wen Shichang wondered: I have seen bold thieves, but I have never seen such a bold one! How can there be any reason for a mouse to jump into a cat's nest?
After Hu San returned to the Yamen, he immediately became complacent. He was originally a villain who succeeded, but what was different from ordinary villains was that in addition to his mental skills, this person was not very bad, and he also had some abilities. In addition, he still had some sense of justice.
Hu San hurriedly got into the bedroom without washing, and began to fall asleep with his head covered.
The soldiers at Dali Temple heard the noise outside the courtyard and shouted to catch the thief. Someone on duty asked what happened and what was the safety of the adults. The soldier replied:
"My lord has just gone to the toilet and has fallen asleep."
Early the next morning, Hu San ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair and went straight to the small hotel.
The owner of the tavern thought that a big buyer had arrived, so he hurried out to greet him. He looked up and saw that the gentleman coming out of the sedan looked very familiar. He couldn't remember it for a long time, and it was inconvenient to ask, so he had to smile and invite the guests in for dinner.
Hu San said with a straight face: "Store, if you are not busy with dining, please settle the bill for the day first."
The shop owner was surprised and said: "What's the bill today? Your Majesty came to my shop and sat down. It's so radiant. We are really lucky for the rest of our lives. How dare we ask you to spend money?"
"I drank a bottle of wine from your shop and ate two dishes. It cost me ten ounces of money at most, right? I forgot to bring any money with me at that time, and I talked to you kindly for a long time, but you refused and rewarded me with a mouthful of phlegm.
He beat me and even took off my clothes, is this a big deal?"
The shopkeeper's face turned from red to yellow, from yellow to green, then from green to sallow and pale. He muttered repeatedly, unable to speak, so he had to make a plop and knelt down on the ground.
