Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

The soldiers of the inspection department who detained Zongzhen's fleet had been out for several days, and there was no news until now. Su Mu was also a little anxious, always having a bad premonition.

This feeling is especially strong when I wake up the next day.

I ate breakfast as usual, and read a book in the yard. After I couldn't sit for a while, a young man came in with a post.

Su Mu saw that it was Zongzhen again.

On the post, Zongzhen talked nonsense for a long time in a respectful and humble tone, and finally said that he offended Mrs. Mei yesterday, and he was in a state of anxiety. He set up a banquet in the private room of the inn at noon today to apologize to Mr. Mei.

To be honest, Su Mu already wanted to give Zong Zhen a break, not because he had any good feelings for this salt owl.It's really pitiful for those few lives. After all, the private salt dealers are poor people who can't live on, so they take risks.To put it bluntly, the imperial court is also responsible for their illegal activities.

Six or seven heads, if the law is strictly enforced, will be cut off, and six or seven families will be destroyed in this way.

After all, Su Mu is a modern person, when he thinks that so many people will die by his hands, he still feels a little unbearable in his heart.

Hey, even if I have a moral cleanliness!

After reading the post, Su Mu thought about it, he still needs to talk about it with Zongzhen, he has done such a good thing, no matter what, he has to appreciate it.These desperadoes, try not to turn against them if you can.Otherwise, if a few people like Wu Song are angered and come to a mandarin duck building with snow splashing, wouldn't this official become Zhang Dujian?

If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about it. If you are remembered by the salt lords, my lord will have a hard time.

Besides, Zong Zhen had to make up for the losses of the soldiers on the inspection department's side.

Su Mu didn't want to pay Lei Feng out of his own pocket.

He nodded to the young man: "Okay, I will definitely attend when the time comes."

Hearing Su Mu's promise, the young man happily ran out of the inn. As soon as he went out, Zong Zhen who was there earlier stepped forward and asked anxiously, "How is it?"

The boy said, "If you are a senior official of Huizong, the villain has already taken care of it."

Zongzhen was overjoyed and threw a bunch of money over.

"Thank you, sir, for your reward."

Zong Zhen: "If you continue to serve Master Mei here, if you have any news, report it as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly left to make arrangements.

Su Mu read the book for a long time in the yard, he was busy with something on his mind, finally there was good news, a soldier ran in: "Master, you are back, you are back!"

Su Mu dropped the book: "What's back?"

The soldier said: "The brothers who went out to do errands for a short stay have returned, and even the ship's goods and the criminals have been escorted back to Banbidian."

Su Mu felt relieved: "Why did they come back so late?"

The soldier smiled and said: "After taking the goods, I should have returned to the official office immediately. However, you must know the virtues of these miscellaneous ruffians. There are taverns and private houses all over the salt field, and the prices are half cheaper than those in the city. This time After taking so many stolen goods, the big guy saw that he could get a large bonus, so he simply stayed there for two days, happy, happy."

"This group of rammers!" Su Mu was annoyed, stood up, and shouted, "All go back to the official office with my lord."

He couldn't help but shook his head: I've had a bad premonition these days, presumably it's because I've stayed in Cangzhou for almost two months, and I feel depressed and even nervous.

The group immediately packed up their things and left the inn.

As soon as he walked out of the door, the young man came over hurriedly: "Mr. Mei, where are you going?"

Su Mu: "Go back to the official office."

Boy: "When will the master come back?"

Before Su Mu could speak, a book office next to him yelled loudly: "Master Mei is going to work on his own, it's none of your business, just talk about it."

The little guy was startled, and hurriedly whispered an apologetic smile: "Master Mei, didn't the high official Zong say that he wanted to invite you to drink, the younger ones can also fix the food and drink."

Su Mu has always been kind to ordinary people, and he has no hierarchy in his heart, so he smiled kindly: "Then get ready, be there at noon."

Since traveling to the Ming Dynasty, Su Mu also followed the living habits of the ancients, going to bed early and getting up early.It's about nine o'clock in the morning Beijing time in later generations. From here to Banbidian, it takes up to two hours to go back and forth.

The inspection department's case is also simple, it can be solved in two sentences, and it will be just right to come back when the time comes.

Upon hearing this, the little guy responded happily: "Yes, the villain told the kitchen to get ready to go."

Watching Su Mu and the others leave in the car, and taking a look at Master Mei's quiet yard, the boys rushed out to report to Zongzhen, and naturally reaped a lot of hard-earned money.

When Zong Zhen heard that Su Mu led his men out of the house, he cried out in his heart: Heaven and earth are all working together, no one in Su Mu's yard is just right, I was worrying about why I sent my sister there without anyone noticing, it was so just right.

So he hurriedly invited Libao and other old people, saying that he wanted to invite Mei Inspector to have a drink, and invited the old people from the village to accompany him.

Mr. Mei was originally an official, and Zongzhen was nicknamed Zong Daguan, so he could speak for himself in these streets, so the village chiefs and security chiefs naturally came here happily.

In this way, after working for a long time, a sedan chair sent Zong Xiaomei to the inn, and then pried open the door of Su Mu to let her wait inside.

Poor girl Zong, although she has sacrificed her ego to fulfill her ego, she still feels a burst of sadness when she sits in a lonely room.

Seeing the time go by little by little, it was noon soon, and there was a burst of laughter in front of the inn.

Miss Zong thought to herself: Brother is probably having a drink with Mr. Mei!

Tears came out again, but he gritted his teeth and wiped them away.

Zong Xiaomei guessed wrong, there was no Mr. Mei from the inspection department who was drinking in front.

It turned out that it was strange to say that Su Mu had promised to return at noon, but it was also strange to say that there was no news for a long time after this trip.

The food and drink had already been served on the table. In order to get up early when the time came to catch the adulterer, Zong Zhen deliberately did not choose a private room, but placed the banquet directly in the lobby of the inn.

Accompanying him were two village chiefs and three well-known figures from the two streets.

These people are here to be witnesses.

Zongzhen has thought about all the joints, and when the time comes, once the girl is drunk by Su Mu, she will break her body.He rushed in to catch the rape, and forced him to marry Zong Xiaomei in front of everyone, otherwise he would be taken to the government.

Of course, Zong Zhen didn't intend to break up with Su Mu directly, besides, officials and officials protect each other.When we got to the yamen, how my sister got into Su Mu's room is really unclear.

At that time, as long as Su Mu refuses to agree, Zong Zhen will take the next best thing and let Su Mu accept Zong's younger sister as his concubine.In this way, everyone is happy, and they can be regarded as relatives with Master Mei.

But I stayed there for a long time, waiting for Master Mei not to come, and waiting for Master Mei not to come.

The few people who were invited were also very old, and they couldn't stand the hunger, and they also had identities.

Seeing that noon had come, everyone seemed a little impatient, so Zong Zhen had no choice but to open the table first and wait while eating.

When you come back to Sumu, it won't be too late to open another seat.
