In the Ming Dynasty, the efficiency of government affairs at the county level seemed not to be very high. Zhao Erniang had been in the sun for a long time without any movement, and the people around her were already talking and whispering.
After a while, I saw two government servants wearing tall hats and soap coats coming out, carrying knives at their waists. They walked straight to the outside of the crowd and shouted loudly: "Disperse! Disperse! The magistrate has ordered, take it."
People go in and confront him."
After driving for a while, the crowd finally moved away and continued to watch. Unexpectedly, Zhao Erniang suddenly grabbed the paper on the ground, lifted up her skirt and ran away like a frightened bird, shouting: "You are wronged, you are wronged, the official arrested you randomly!"
One of the yamen servants scolded her, "Where did you get this cunning woman from?" and another said, "Chase me, I'll take someone to hand me over."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Erniang ran very dexterously and ran very fast. She couldn't even compare with the two government officials. There were many people on the street, and the people's inability to avoid them greatly affected the speed of the two government officials. She really didn't have the strength to run. Zhao Erniang ran away.
She ran away from the government officer in two blocks, but she was still running, shouting "I'm not guilty" and "help" from time to time. Who was going to stop her when she was a woman shouting such words? People paid most attention to what was chasing her.
People. The people chasing her now were no longer government servants, but a few young men in short clothes, chasing after her closely.
Running to the canal near the water gate, Zhao Erniang happened to be blocked at a specific place. She shouted "The government has killed someone" and jumped into the canal. Several young people chasing her ran to the river.
He looked down and then quickly moved away. Zhao Erniang started flopping in the river. People on the riverside shouted for help. Some hurriedly took off their coats and wanted to jump into the river. At this time, a middle-aged scribe didn't move.
He said seductively: "This woman has got into trouble with the government. Are you going to save her and not be afraid of being treated as an adulterer?"
There was a Sanming-tiled boat floating in the center of the river. Zhao Erniang threw herself in the direction of the boat, shouting "Help" from time to time in shock and urgency. After a while, a long oar was finally stretched out from the boat, and Zhao Erniang grabbed it tightly.
She stopped, and then slowly pulled her towards the side of the boat. Two strong men came out of the cabin. They leaned down and each of them lifted one of her arms, and easily lifted Zhao Erniang onto the boat.
"This bitch is falling into the water nearby. It's a sight to behold if she doesn't save her," a voice said.
There was a tall man sitting in the cabin, still wearing a narrow bamboo hat. The bamboo hat covered half of his face, and the lower half of his face was very hairy. He said without raising his head: "Get out of the water gate immediately.
When we leave the city, throw her on the shore."
The burly man wearing a bamboo hat was none other than Peng Tianheng. He came to Yizhen County in person. This was something Zhang Ning and the others did not expect. In fact, no one in Biyuan knew what Peng Tianheng was like. They could only rely on Zhao Erniang to act according to the situation.
This technique is very handy. She has made up her mind and will not let go of the rabbit. Unless she is raped in public or Peng Tianheng's identity is confirmed, she will not commit herself to others easily. Even if she is sure, she will still use tricks to make him
You can see it but you can't eat it... Zhao Erniang knows very well about a man's virtues that what he has not eaten is the best.
At this time, Peng Tianheng stretched out his hand to lift the bamboo hat slightly, and looked at Zhao Erniang. Unexpectedly, after taking one look, he wanted to take a second look.
Zhao Erniang was dripping with water, her floral jacket and underskirt clung to her body, exposing all her lines, especially the pair of breasts on her chest, which were so tightly packed by the wet clothes that she was trembling slightly.
It was so tempting. She folded her arms in front of her chest to block it, and her hands were still holding the big wave, but her posture was like a wave-haired girl touching herself. Peng Tianheng suddenly felt a tremor in his lower abdomen.
It was so hot that my whole body was on fire.
"Who are you?" Peng Tianheng couldn't help but ask.
Zhao Erniang didn't answer, she huddled up in a corner, gently pulled a piece of canvas to cover her, her teeth clicked softly, like a frightened thrush, and all the men on the ship felt love and pity for her when they saw her.
A man next to him said: "This woman's surname is Hu. She is from Dashu'ao Village. I first saw her complaining about injustice at the gate of the county government office."
"Have I asked you?" Peng Tianheng said coldly. Seeing that the man's eyes kept looking at Zhao Erniang, he became angry and said something irritated. Or maybe it was in front of such a beautiful woman,
He couldn't help but show off the majesty of a big man.
When Zhao Erniang heard that someone on the boat had seen her before, she felt that it would be bad to say more. Being unclear would make it more truthful, so she timidly said: "My family... I just want to go home now. Can you please let me
Are you getting off the boat?"
Peng Tianheng put on a kind smile and said nicely: "Where is your home? I will send someone to take you back."
"Dashuao." Zhao Erniang said pitifully, "I have to go back by myself, or my master will beat me if he sees it."
"Mother, what kind of man is beating his own aunt?" Peng Tianheng cursed. He couldn't let this woman go easily now, so he waved his hand, and one of his subordinates came over and whispered, "
Send someone to Dashu'ao to find out if a woman named Hu is missing."
After explaining, Peng Tianheng showed half a smile and asked: "How did you fall into the water, and who is chasing you? Tell me, maybe I can help you."
Zhao Erniang buried her head in silence for a while, then handed out a completely soaked piece of paper from her arms. The paper was torn, let alone the words on it: "Written by a boy in the village." Peng Tianheng took it and held it in his hand in astonishment.
How do you know what to write if it’s all bad?
Peng Tianheng said again: "Mrs. Hu, do you think this will work? What do you mean when you go back like this? Come to my house first, let my wife change you into dry clothes, and then explain the matter clearly, and we will send you home properly.
, I’ll tell you the truth and I won’t embarrass you.”
"I don't know you." Zhao Erniang was still curled up, looking at the hair on his face with fearful eyes.
"I'm a businessman in the salt business. I'm not a bad person. Do you think I look like a bad person?" Peng Tianheng smiled in a self-assured and kind manner, with a look of ill-intentioned but unaware of it.
Zhao Erniang shook her head and said nothing.
At this time, the boat had safely left the city. After docking, Peng Tianheng stopped chatting with Zhao Erniang, got up and left the cabin, turned around and said in a deep voice: "Take her back, and chop her into pieces if anyone dares to touch her!"
"Yes, owner of the village." The person next to him responded, and Zhao Erniang in the cabin heard it clearly.
Peng Tianheng added: "After I find out her details, I will go over there. When I go back, watch the road and pay attention to whether there are any tails."
…
After Zhang Ning got the report, Xie Juan reminded him: "You really don't want to send someone to follow him?"
"No, I'm not someone who can't trust you. Be careful. Those gangsters are also old gangsters. They are not afraid of ten thousand, but they are afraid that if they are discovered, everything will be ruined. Not only did they alert the snake, but how did Zhao Erniang come back?"
Xie Jun sighed: "In this case, Zhao Erniang will have no news at all, and we will not know the success or failure. We are blindfolded and we are really worried."
"Calm down and keep calm." Zhang Ning said calmly, "Leave two people and two fast horses in the inn to stay here; squat over there at Dashu Col. We have already done what we can do, so what else can we do?
It’s all superfluous. Now I’m going back to Yangzhou to wait for the news.”
