A knife in love

Chapter 950

When Li Qiufeng saw Miaozhu swearing and swearing, he felt amused, so he had to be polite.Miao Zhu waited for Li Qiufeng to drink a glass of wine, and then said with a smile: "Master, take your time, and the villain will have to work in the front yard for a while."

Li Qiufeng said: "Go ahead as long as you are busy, you don't have to stay with me here."

Miao Zhu said: "The yamen sent people early in the morning, saying that a high-ranking official is going to burn incense at the Temple of the City God today. I didn't do anything all morning, and I just cared about packing things."

Li Qiufeng listened to Miaozhu's words, and immediately took his heart, and said, "Senior official? Is it the prefect of Luoyang?"

Miao Zhu shook his head, approached Li Qiufeng somewhat mysteriously, and said in a low voice: "An official who is older than the magistrate. It is said that he is from Kaifeng. He is called 'insert you to death' and is in charge of interrogating prisoners. I heard that we repair Wuxian City has arrested a lot of thieves and robbers, and this 'stab you to death' has rushed over from Kaifeng to interrogate these criminals."

At the beginning Li Qiufeng listened to Miao Zhu's tangled and confused words, and was a little puzzled, but after thinking about it, his mind immediately became clear.What Miao Zhu said "cut you to death" was naturally Liang Huan, the procurator of Henan's criminal procuratorate.It's just that the common people can't distinguish the name of the official, and they heard "according to the inspector" as "throwing you to death".

I only heard Miaozhu Wuzi said in a long-winded manner: "I heard that the land temple also wanted to invite this old man to offer incense, but the yamen refused immediately. In Xiuwu County, the villain would not believe that he would dare to join our Chenghuang Temple." Fight for the right and the short."

Miao Zhu was excited to speak, and I saw him beaming and spitting, blowing the Town God's Temple into the sky.Li Qiufeng thought to himself, if this person went to Gaolianghe in the capital to be a storyteller, he would definitely make a lot of money every day.

At this moment, a sound of footsteps was heard in the courtyard.Miao Zhu didn't know martial arts, so naturally he didn't notice that someone had arrived.Li Qiufeng immediately became alert. Although he didn't put down his chopsticks, he quietly placed the Xiuchun knife on his knee with his left hand.

The sound of footsteps came to the door, and then someone knocked on the door, and the old servant's voice came in: "The tolerance of the yamen has arrived in the front yard, and he said that the old man will be here in a short while, and he wants us to go out to meet him."

Miao Zhu hurriedly cupped his hands at Li Qiufeng, and said in his mouth: "Master, take it slow, and the villain will leave first."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and Miao Zhu left in a hurry.Li Qiufeng put down his chopsticks, pondered for a while, then stood up, untied the Xiuchun knife, and put it under the quilt.After straightening his clothes, he went out and walked straight to the front yard.

But just as he walked to the corner door leading to the front yard, he saw four police officers standing at the door, all of them holding their waist knives tightly and standing upright.When Li Qiufeng walked to the corner gate, a policeman glanced at him and shouted, "Stop! Who are you?!"

Li Qiufeng said: "I live in the Temple of the City God, and now I have to go out to do business."

The arrester's face changed, and he turned to the other three arresters and said, "Damn it, those bastards in Xiuwu County are so stupid! The people have been driven away! It seems that the matter has to be left to us, otherwise something big will happen!"

The three detectives nodded repeatedly.The leading arrester quickly turned his head and shouted at Li Qiufeng, "Kneel down!"

Li Qiufeng was startled, and said, "I'm not a prisoner, why should I kneel down?"

The catcher rolled his eyes and said: "I said you are a prisoner, and you are a prisoner. Why don't you kneel down for me?!"

Li Qiufeng originally just wanted to see what Master Liang Huanliang looked like in the front yard, and didn't want to cause trouble.But at this time, seeing the arrester being so arrogant, he felt annoyed, and immediately sneered, "If I provoke you, if you don't kneel down, what can you do to me?"

The arrester was a policeman from the Siyamen, the procuratorate of Henan Province.Although he was just a small tolerance in the office of the procuratorate, but when he went out to do business with the procurator, the officials from all over the country dealt with it carefully, which made this small tolerance arrogant.He didn't intend to make things difficult for Li Qiufeng, but he was used to being arrogant and behaved extremely domineeringly.Seeing that Li Qiufeng dared to confront him openly at this time, he was furious and said viciously: "I didn't want to make things difficult for you, but you boy ran into our knife by yourself! You can't blame me for killing yourself. "

After the policeman finished speaking, he was about to pull out his waist knife with his right hand.Unexpectedly, he held the scabbard with his left hand and pulled out the knife with his right hand, but the waist knife did not spin.The catcher was shocked, and looked down, only to see a hand suddenly appeared on the top of the waist knife handle.This hand rested on the hilt of the knife, seemingly very casually, and actually pressed his waist knife firmly into the scabbard.

The policeman suddenly raised his head, only to realize that Li Qiufeng had arrived in front of him at some point, the distance between the two was less than a foot, and Li Qiufeng's eyes were like knives, staring at the policeman eeriely.

The other three officers stood behind this officer, unable to see clearly what happened between them.A catcher said carelessly: "There must be a lot of troublemakers in remote places like Xiuwu County. If these less educated street people don't teach them a lesson, they don't know how much Mawangyan is. An eye!"

Although the leading arrester was rude and rude, but a guy like him who has been in the yamen for many years knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong, and adapt to the wind.He saw Li Qiufeng resting his left hand on the hilt of his saber casually, and he tried his best, but he couldn't pull out the waist saber.Moreover, this person's figure was like electricity, and he quietly arrived in front of him.This ability is many times more powerful than the so-called "god catchers" of the yamen and the robbers captured by the yamen.As the saying goes, a good man doesn't suffer from short-term losses. Although dozens of people from the Inspectorate's Yamen have arrived in the front yard to arrest the police, if he yells, this person will definitely kill him first.At that time, even if he can capture this person, he will die.The imperial court allocates a few taels of pension money, and most of it will be embezzled by the Shangguan, and the wife and children in the family can only beg for food.In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen thoughts had turned in his mind, but he didn't dare to move his body, and said: "You, what do you want to do?"

Li Qiufeng saw that this person neither resisted nor called for help, but he was a sensible person.Immediately sneered, and said: "I just want to go to the front yard to have a look, and I don't intend to embarrass you people."

The arrester saw that Li Qiufeng had no malicious intentions. Although his martial arts were extremely high, he didn't look like an assassin, so he let go of the heart hanging in his throat.He said in a trembling voice: "Master Liang, the inspector of Henan's inspector, is about to arrive. The inside and outside of the Town God's Temple are heavily guarded, and no one else is allowed to approach. We are also on mission, old... I advise you to stay in the backyard obediently, wait After Mr. Liang leaves, you can go wherever you want, why bother to embarrass everyone at this moment?"

The three police officers behind him were surprised when they heard what he said, and thought to themselves that he was still arrogant just now, but why his attitude changed so suddenly, and it was a bit strange to talk to this kid so calmly.

Li Qiufeng said: "Court officials naturally have laws to follow when they travel. It is just an act of cleaning the streets, and it is only limited to official travel. If they are so majestic and harassing the people on weekdays, they will play a book after the censor knows about it. The black gauze on your head, Mr. Liang, is a bit unreliable."

Although the catcher was rude and shoddy, after all, he had been in the yamen for 20 years, and he still understood some rules of the imperial court.According to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, when officials travel on official business, they can indeed discharge the ceremonial staff and clean the street for three miles.However, if you do not go out on official business, it is strictly forbidden to disturb the people, clean the streets and drive people away without authorization.When Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty was in power, because of the arrogance of the county magistrate of Baima County, Shanxi Province, when he went to his father-in-law’s house to celebrate his birthday, he put out a ceremonial stick to clean the street. After the trial, the body was peeled and the grass was peeled, and the body was sent back to Baima County, where it was hung in the Earth Temple next to the magistrate's yamen, as a warning to those who came later.This matter was written in various states and counties all over the world to show an example.Therefore, this matter is known all over the world, and it has been passed down since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, this arrester will not be ignorant.Liang Huan's visit to Xiuwu County was indeed on official business, but his visit to the Town God's Temple was just a private matter.If the censor really wrote a book, and Liang Huan's political opponents made trouble, even if the matter could be settled, it would take a lot of trouble.

Seeing that Li Qiufeng was familiar with the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the arrester was shocked. He didn't know how a boy with ordinary clothes and ordinary face in this remote county could have such knowledge.
