He must have discovered it when he threw the knife to chop him.
"Mr. Li, since we have been wronged, we don't want to hear any gossip in the village from now on."
"It would be easy for us to kill you."
"What to do in the future, I have some ideas!"
Zhang Bao said to Mr. Li.
Then he greeted Lao He and walked out.
Keeping Mr. Li alive is more effective than killing him.
Otherwise, if Mrs. Li dies, the Li family will be in chaos, and Zhang Bao and the others will not be able to control them.
I saw the two murderers Lao He and Zhang Bao leaving.
Old Mrs. Li collapsed on the bed and was about to shout loudly at the visitor.
But after thinking about it, he immediately shut up.
My concubine is still dead here.
This matter must not become a big deal!
Looking at the corpse next to him, Mr. Li wanted to die...
…
Early the next morning.
Lao He himself walked in from the village entrance in a swaggering manner.
He kept saying hello to the villagers.
He openly publicized the fact that he was wronged and then released.
Mrs. Li also stood up and helped Lao He talk.
After I returned home, I didn’t know what kind of madness I had.
He forced the servants of the Li family to beat his concubine to death.
But according to my servants’ private discussions.
When Mrs. Li asked them to fight, they were already dead.
His body was stiff and covered in blood.
But now.
The clan leader in the village has the power to control the sky with one hand and is a rich man, so no one dares to tell anyone about it.
As for Mrs. Li's side.
After beating my concubine to death.
I heard that he was seriously ill and rarely left the house.
Many Li family members in the village took refuge with the Zhang family one after another in order to have enough food to eat, and Old Mrs. Li turned a blind eye.
There was peace in the village.
…
As for Liu Mang.
In Zhang Bao's view, he must be eliminated.
Otherwise, when he quietly returns to the village and sees Lao He and the others in the village, he will probably report it to the official.
In order to avoid future troubles.
Zhang Bao and Hu Dugu planned to find time to go to the county government and make Liu Mang.
Lao He is now a fugitive.
Naturally, we cannot go to the county government easily.
Fortunately, Li Daniu has become familiar with them after following him a few times. Li Daniu is also honest, so there is no problem in selling charcoal for the time being.
Moreover, every household in the village gradually had a surplus of food.
The frequency of opening the kiln does not need to be so high.
Zhang Bao understands the principle of not fishing in the marsh.
If all the trees on the mountain were cut down.
If there's another big disaster next winter, at least there's a way out.
Moreover, making charcoal is not a long-term livelihood. Once spring comes, the demand for charcoal will not be that much.
It is unrealistic to organize so many people to work.
It is necessary to find another livelihood.
…
Within Sanhe County.
On an official road.
Two carriages were moving forward slowly.
Around the carriage, there were more than a dozen people following on horseback.
Look at this posture.
The visitor's status is extraordinary.
"Sir, I didn't expect that Fanzhou Mu would not delegate power and not take the emperor seriously at all."
"I heard that the governors of other states have gained real power. I heard that the governor Wang of Dongzhou directly led troops to occupy half of the counties in Dongzhou."
"By chance, my lord, I met a man named Fan here!"
"He thought he was the previous general!"
A servant was riding a horse next to him, chatting with the people in the carriage.
"Yang Wu, don't be anxious about anything."
"It's mine, and it will be mine sooner or later."
"Although the Palace Governor of Beihai County has not expressed his position on the surface, I believe he will never be indifferent."
"As long as I capture Yanghe County, most of Hezhou will be in my hands."
"When Hezhou is in chaos, we don't have to worry about Fan Hanzhong not delegating power."
A middle-aged man poked his head out of the car.
This man is neither fat nor thin, he is gentle and elegant, and he is shaking his feather fan gently. It is difficult to connect him with the governor who exercises the supervisory function.
Rather, he looks like a weak scholar rushing to take the exam.
It's just that there is a cold and mean nature between his eyebrows.
At this time, he was looking up at the scenery in front of him.
"Isn't the Sanhe County Headquarters just ahead?"
The words just fell.
An arrow grazed the horse's butt and was nailed to the door frame of the carriage.
It startled everyone.
at the same time.
Several people jumped out on the road ahead.
"Robbery!"
!!!
…
In the city of Sanhe County.
The county magistrate has received news that the governor has arrived in Sanhe County and is expected to arrive soon.
In order to welcome the governor's visit.
The county magistrate is very busy.
Early in the morning, I asked the government officials to go out and wander around Erlong Mountain and Qinglong Cave.
Don't let these two gangs of bandits go down the mountain.
Without these two bandits on the mountain, it can be said that everything is safe.
"Right!"
"The ground from the city gate to here should be sprayed with water again. There must be no dust on it."
The county magistrate suddenly remembered something.
He ordered to the person behind him.
This was the county magistrate's sudden idea early this morning.
He had heard a long time ago that the governor does not want to see a speck of dust and loves to be clean.
So to leave a good impression.
Only then did the county magistrate come up with this idea.
"Don't worry, second cousin, I took people to splash it three times this morning, and there's absolutely no dust at all!"
The man behind the county magistrate said.
The county magistrate nodded.
I was about to ask something more.
Suddenly I heard news from the front that the governor had entered the city!
The county magistrate did not dare to delay and immediately took the lead and knelt down.
When the people behind him saw the county magistrate kneeling, they immediately knelt down in unison to welcome the governor's arrival.
The chief clerk also knelt aside.
But as soon as I knelt down, something felt wrong.
Why is it so cold underground?
Still so slippery?
Look up.
In front of you is a bright thoroughfare that extends from the city gate.
The chief bookkeeper was stupid at that time.
Just wanted to give you a reminder.
I saw two carriages and a group of cavalry galloping towards this side.
I don't know if it's an illusion.
The horse's footsteps seemed to be very messy, and it felt like... it couldn't stop.
The chief clerk covered his eyes in despair.
really.
The horse fell heavily to the ground.
The horses and the two carriages fell to the ground and overturned, sliding all the way past the Yamen gate.
The county magistrate raised his head.
I happened to look into the eyes of a huge horse.
The county magistrate was stunned.
Why did the horse lie down?
Then I saw several horses paddling forward with their heads on the ground.
Even the carriage rolled several times.
He rolled into a nearby house.
And in mid-air.
A man wearing a feather fan and a turban and fluttering white clothes also flew over the heads of everyone.
