Water Margin people

Chapter 80 Shijie Village

"Gao Taiwei, Instructor Zhang is the Instructor of the Forbidden Army, and he is your subordinate. If you want to punish this, Gao Taiwei should go in person. It is not suitable for me to intervene."

Seeing that Gao Qiu was still messing around, Tengfu Yin was a little annoyed. Gao Qiu's temperament as a rascal on the street has not changed.

"This is a murder case, of course it belongs to Tengfu Yin."

Gao Qiu patted the table and said, killing an instructor is easy, but it is cumbersome to deal with, and it is even more troublesome to do it yourself. Instructor Zhang is still an old instructor in the Forbidden Army, and he has a good reputation among the Forbidden Army. He already has a lot of opinions. If he still attacks Instructor Zhang this time, it will be difficult for him to be a captain. Although he is a captain and still in charge of the Imperial Army, after all, he has a shallow foundation and a rogue background who doesn't know anything about military affairs. Many things still depend on the soldiers of the Imperial Army.

"Gao Taiwei, it's hard to put it bluntly. The city has already been full of uproar. Now that the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple have come in, His Majesty will definitely intervene in the court tomorrow. Now there are many rumors of Gao Ya's past actions among the people. Shi Tai will not sit idly by, I advise Gao Taiwei not to make the matter worse, the murderer has already been found, if Gao Taiwei is afraid of being slow, he can send someone to chase the murderer himself."

Tengfu Yin pushed Sun Lei's portrait to Gao Qiu. This matter has been investigated clearly, so it should follow the procedure, instead of following Gao Qiu's mischief. Kaifeng Mansion is not Gao Qiu's White Tiger Festival Hall.

"Then thank you Tengfu Yin."

Gao Qiu had no choice but to take the portrait and leave. He originally wanted to pester Tengfu Yin to arrest him as soon as possible, but when Tengfu Yin said that the matter had become serious and he was already at the emperor's place, he finally came to his senses. If the things his son did spread, he would inevitably be scolded and criticized by those civil servants. What the civil officials in the court like most is to stare at them, military officials, and participate in the performance.

Back at Taiwei's mansion, Gao Qiu sighed, his son was killed, let alone the murderer was not caught, he still doesn't know what to do when he goes to court tomorrow.

"Or just pretend to be sick, say that your son is dead, and become sick from depression."

In the end, Gao Li thought of such a common method of rogues. Now he wants to pretend to be pitiful, so as not to be criticized, and he will think about revenge after the incident is over.

"Come on, isn't Lin Chong already escorted to Cangzhou? Tell Lu Qian to kill him. As long as you bring Lin Chong's head, I'll mention him as the envoy of the Palace Commander's Mansion."

Gao Qiu called the boss to tell him that if Sun Lei and Mrs. Zhang can't be caught for the time being, then he can only kill Lin Chong first to vent his anger.

……

Sun Lei went all the way to Jeju. He deliberately avoided big cities, took small roads, and settled in some villages and towns, but he was not chased by officers and soldiers.

This ancient method of arresting criminals is very stupid. Tokyo must first send arrest warrants to various districts, then to the state capital, and finally from the state capital to the county. As for the arrest warrants below the county level, we can only listen.The towns and villages are too scattered, and arrest warrants cannot be posted. There are no official officials below the county level. It is only managed by some non-staff personnel from the county government. It is impossible to count on arresting criminals. Take the police to patrol around to search and arrest, but a county is so big and the roads are difficult to walk. Larger counties may not be able to patrol in a month. It is nonsense to rely on them to patrol and arrest people. There were so many wanted criminals all over the world that they couldn't catch them.

Seeing the place, Sun Lei drove a carriage to find an inn in the village and stayed there.

"Sister-in-law, we're here."

Sun Lei got off the carriage and said to Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang lifted the curtain of the car and looked timidly at unfamiliar places. She has been in Tokyo and has never traveled far. The strange accent on the street made her very nervous, especially knowing that she was also wanted, she did not dare to look up. Said to Sun Lei in a low voice.

"Uncle, why don't you find a place to live where no one is around, and the slave's house is just in the carriage."

Ever since she knew that she was also wanted, Mrs. Zhang was very afraid of seeing people, worried about being recognized by others, and kept hiding in the carriage.

"Sister-in-law, what's so scary about that? I can't even recognize who those portraits are painted like that, let alone outsiders. Don't worry, I'm here for everything!"

Sun Lei patted his chest and promised.

After a while, Mrs. Zhang got out of the carriage with Jin'er's support, but she covered her face with a silk scarf.

"Miss official, do you want to stay in a hotel or eat?"

Seeing a guest coming, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him and asked enthusiastically.

"Stay in the hotel, open two rooms, my sister is not feeling well, get a quiet room! Bring a table of wine and food!"

Sun Lei took out a piece of two taels of silver and threw it to Xiaoer. Mrs. Zhang was afraid of seeing people, so she could only eat the meal in her room.

"Okay, please come upstairs, guest officer!"

Xiao Er yelled cleverly, there is no title of official lady, Sun Lei's words have already shown that they are a pair of siblings, and Sun Lei looks young, Zhang looks a little older, and is a woman with hair accessories , which is completely in line with the personality of siblings. In this era, men generally do not marry older women.

After staying in the inn for one night, Sun Lei found out the way, and then drove the carriage on the road again.

After leaving the official road, the road became deserted again, and there were few pedestrians on the road. Mrs. Zhang also heaved a sigh of relief, and opened the side curtain to look at the surrounding flowers and trees, with a slightly sad face, wiping tears from time to time.

"Sister-in-law, why do you do this? The body is yours, and my stupid brother can't see it even after crying."

Sun Lei said helplessly, Mrs. Zhang is always like this these days, weeping silently, I am afraid she will become depressed and sick after a long time.

"Uncle, do you think he is okay?"

Mrs. Zhang sobbed for a while and asked Sun Lei in a low voice.

"It's probably very good. With Master Lu around, he will definitely not die. Now he might be able to survive drinking and eating meat in the Cangzhou military camp. Don't worry, he won't starve himself to death at his age."

Sun Lei replied casually.

After listening to Sun Lei's words, Mrs. Zhang was even more sad. Her heart was broken into eight petals after thinking about it day and night, but the man was happy drinking and eating meat.

"So, no matter how sad you are, it's useless. Lin Chong should eat and drink. I advise my sister-in-law to think about something happy. For example, I will take over the mountain and become king. My sister-in-law wants to congratulate me." .”

Sun Lei said with a smile, Mrs. Zhang couldn't laugh or cry when she heard it. Is it worth congratulating on the fact that Kou Zhanshan became king?This is the crime of decapitation, but thinking that she and Sun Lei are both wanted criminals, if they don't fall into the grass, they will be decapitated. The more they think about it, the more Zhang feels sorry for Sun Lei. It won't hurt Sun Lei to become a bandit.

After walking along the path for another two days, I finally arrived at a fishing village. The village is not big, with only dozens of thatched huts, surrounded by lush trees. The village is surrounded by several small rivers, enclosing the village in the middle, with only a few The small road can lead to the village, but fortunately there is a road that is relatively wide and can be used by horse-drawn carriages.

The village is full of fishermen who make a living by fishing. Fishing nets are drying around the village, and dried fish can be seen everywhere, and there is a smell of fish when you approach the village.

"Shijie Village, finally arrived."

Sun Lei looked at the stone tablet at the entrance of the village and knew that he had found the location.

Next to Shijie Village is Shijie Lake connected to Liangshan Po. Most of the villagers live by fishing. The village in front of them is a bit dilapidated, and it seems that it is not that rich. These are the same as what Sun Lei heard.

Just on the other side of the village, there are still many fishing boats parked on the other side of the lake. There seem to be many people bustling on it. When you look closely, it turns out that they are selling fish. There are also a few hotels on the shore with wine sails. People drinking Not too many, it should be Shijie Town.

"drive!"

Sun Lei flicked the reins of the horse, and drove the carriage into Shijie Village.

Horse-drawn carriages are considered the most luxurious means of transportation in this era. Those who can ride in this kind of carriage are either rich or expensive. Shijie Village is just a poor fishing village. Many people have never left the village in their entire lives, and they have never seen such a luxurious carriage.

Many people in the small courtyard of the farmhouse looked at the carriage entering the village, and whispered what the carriage was for. No family in Shijie Village had such rich relatives or friends.
