Water Margin people

Chapter 217 Pan Jinlian's Choice
midnight.

Pan Jinlian was awakened by a burst of noise, she put on her clothes and pushed open the door, only to see the fire outside the courtyard, and the door was being knocked on.

With a "click", the door bolt broke, the gate was knocked open, and dozens of county government officials rushed in.

"Search for me!"

The county lieutenant gave an order, and the guards rushed into the room and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets.

"You... this is the head of Wudu!"

Pan Jinlian was stunned by what was happening in front of her, and it took her a long time to speak.

"Lord County Lieutenant, we found a secret letter and armor with the word Liangshan on it!"

Several guards came out with the evidence they had found.

"Hmph, Wu Song colluded with the thieves and locked this woman back!"

The county lieutenant looked at the "evidence" and pointed at Pan Jinlian.

"Master County Captain, this is just a servant girl of the Wu family. I don't think she has any collusion with the thief. It's better to let her live. I'm willing to be a guarantor!"

Ximen Qing said to the county lieutenant with a smile.

"Since the high officials are willing to serve as security, there is no problem, but she is a suspect and must not leave the county."

The county lieutenant looked at Ximen Qing and said.

"Lord County Lieutenant, don't worry, she lives in my house. If you want to ask the Lord County Lieutenant, you only need to send someone to tell me, and I will take her to the county office to answer."

Ximen Qing smiled and cupped his hands at the county captain.

"You woman need to thank the official Ximen!"

The county lieutenant looked at Pan Jinlian and said.

"I... I won't go!"

Pan Jinlian looked at the swords and armors with handwriting and didn't know what happened. She was taking care of the house inside and outside, so she didn't know anything?Now the county lieutenant sings bad face and Ximen Qing sings bad face, she might be involuntary if she goes now.

"Hmph, are you going to jail then?"

The county lieutenant glared at Pan Jinlian viciously.

"My lady, I've been to this big prison during the day, it's not a place where people stay, and there's more torture, can you bear it?"

Seeing that Pan Jinlian still refused to give in, Ximen Qing's eyes flashed a look of sternness. He was a fish and meat for killing Pan Jinlian, but Pan Jinlian couldn't help but be unwilling.

Pan Jinlian was quite frightened by Ximen Qing's threatening words. Ximen Qing was looking at her with a lewd face at this moment, and his purpose was no longer concealed.

"Let's go, little lady, the last thing I, Ximen Qing, would like to do is to be rough."

Ximen Qing looked at Pan Jinlian involuntarily, and took two steps forward, only forcing Pan Jinlian to take a few steps back.

"No, I'm not going!"

Pan Jinlian gritted her teeth and ran directly into the room, closing the door behind her.

"Don't eat and drink a toast!"

Ximen Qing was furious and kicked open the fragile door.

Pan Jinlian was so frightened that she ran to the second floor. Ximen Qing smiled lewdly and also walked to the second floor.

"Whatever you look at, search the yard to see if there is any criminal evidence!"

The county lieutenant knew what Ximenqing was going to do. He had already collected the money today, so he naturally didn't care about it, and shouted at his servants.

"Little lady, don't you know my heart? I, Ximen Qing, am the richest man in Yanggu when it comes to money, and I am comparable to Pan An in terms of appearance, and I know how to be gentle in every way. If you follow me, I promise you to take care of it and you will not regret it!"

Seeing Pan Jinlian closing the door on the second floor, Ximen Qing said with a smile at the door.

"Hurry up, Brother Wu will not let you go when he comes back!"

Pan Jinlian hid in the room and shouted tremblingly, he had encountered this before at Liu Yuanwai's house, and Liu Yuanwai also said the same thing, and even said that he would take her as a concubine, but she is not a stupid woman, what these big families said It's not true, it's just because of her beauty.

"Huh? Wu Song? When he comes back, he'll be just a prisoner. If you don't want to become a prisoner, you'd better follow me wisely, otherwise...huh!"

Seeing that Pan Jinlian only had Wu Song in his heart, Ximen Qing was furious.

"You guys are framing me!"

Pan Jinlian said.

"So what? So what if I framed him? In Yanggu County, I can cover the sky with one hand. If I want him to die, he will die!"

Ximen Qing kicked open the door and shouted.

Pan Jinlian was so frightened that she hid at the window and leaned out half of her body.

"Don't come here!"

Pan Jinlian looked at Ximen Qing and said.

"Want to die? This is the second floor, can you die if you jump down? At most, you will break your arms and legs. I run a pharmacy, and I promise to cure you and make you obedient."

Ximen Qing walked towards the window with a smile. He saw many women and screamed fiercely, but he was very timid. He didn't believe that Pan Jinlian would dare to jump down.

Seeing Ximen Qing approaching, Pan Jinlian's face was full of despair, she finally gritted her teeth and jumped down.

Ximen Qing didn't expect that Pan Jinlian would really dare to jump, so he stepped forward quickly and reached out to pull, but it was still too late.

"Golden lotus!"

Just as Pan Jinlian was closing her eyes and waiting to die, a cry came that reassured him, followed by a strong arm that caught her.

"Brother Wu!"

Pan Jinlian looked at Wu Song who was hugging her in surprise.

"Wusong!"

Ximenqing was startled when he saw Wu Song, and then saw Wu Song surrounded by strong men with weapons in their hands.

"Master County Captain, that thief Wu Song is here!"

Ximen Qing yelled into the courtyard, but no one answered.

"Are you OK?"

Wu Song looked at Pan Jinlian in his arms and said with concern.

"It's okay, they want to frame you, Brother Wu has already been arrested, and he still wants... to force me!"

Pan Jinlian began to cry, the fear and fear of the day disappeared in an instant after seeing Wu Song.

"Don't worry, everything is with me!"

Wu Song comforted Pan Jinlian, and when he looked up at Ximen Qing, his eyes were already full of cold murderous intent.

"You wait here."

Wu Song put down Pan Jinlian, leaped with all his might, put his foot on the courtyard wall, and with all his strength, he jumped more than two feet high and jumped directly to the second floor.

Ximenqing didn't expect Wu Song to jump directly to the second floor, he was startled, and turned around to run.

"Where to run!"

Wu Song had already jumped into the window. Seeing that Ximen Qing was about to run, he kicked a chair towards Ximen Qing.

Hearing the sound of breaking wind, Ximen Qing lowered his head and just avoided the chair, which hit the door frame and was smashed to pieces.

"Ximen Qing, I have no grudges with you in the past! How can I forgive you for your evil deeds today?"

Wu Song stared at Ximenqing firmly and said, Ximenqing was also a tyrant in Yanggu County, but he never provoked him. Now that Ximenqing used this vicious scheme to harm his family, how could he forgive him lightly.

"Wu Song, I have my eyes on Pan Jinlian. As long as you give him to me, you will still be the capital of Yanggu County, and I will give you another thousand guan!"

Ximen Qing looked at Wu Song and said.

"Ha ha!"

Wu Song laughed wildly.

"I, Wu Song, am an upright man, how can I make a deal with pigs like you!"

Wu Song looked at Ximen Qing and said.

"Then go to die!"

Seeing that Wu Song was empty-handed, Ximen Qing took out a sharp dagger from his bosom. With the weapon in his hand, Ximen Qing felt more at ease. He also practiced martial arts for many years. Even if you have a weapon, you are not afraid of Wu Song.
