Kuai Chuan's face-slapping gold finger

Chapter 63

On this day, a group of villagers came to the gate of the county yamen. Some of them were pushing carts, some were carrying baskets on their backs, most of which were food, and some clothes and bedding.

The head of the old man is about five or sixty years old, with gray hair, rough face, and a simple manner that is unique to rural people. Your Excellency is collecting food. Although our village is not rich, we can still raise some supplies. These things are saved by every family in the village. When everyone hears that they are needed by Mr. Nie, even the most stingy households are rare and generous. Once, although there are few things, it is more or less a wish, please tell the elder brother of the officer to tell Mr. Nie."

"Yes, Master Nie helped us get rid of one evil in the village. Now that His Excellency has ordered us, why should we respond?" A thick-chested and round-armed man interjected, attracting the support of many villagers behind him.

This large group of people gathered around the door, and many passing people gathered around.

Not far away, more than a dozen people came over with their hands. They used brute force to squeeze the people away. Some people wanted to complain, but when they saw these faces, they turned their heads in awe. Immediately cheered up, several pairs of eyes fixed on them like catching thieves.

It was Wang Gouzi and a group of his subordinates who came here. He snorted coldly and said, "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a great hero? Don't look at me, I know a few words, and I know how to show gratitude." report." Wang Gouzi said with his nostrils turned to the sky, "Look at the counties that were hit by the disaster, it's so miserable, tsk tsk... We feel sad just hearing it, if Master Nie hadn't saved Xingyang County for us, we are now How can we be so carefree? Even though we have no money, we still have strength, as long as Master Nie gives orders, let him go in and out of water, and we will go there as a bachelor without saying a word, fearing that it will be an egg!"

A vulgar remark made everyone at the scene blush with embarrassment. Many of them were displeased with Nie Shan'en for helping the disaster victims in other counties with the material resources of this county. Generally, no one to depend on, no home to return to.

At this time, a young man in a blue official robe came out of the yamen, and everyone bowed down when they saw him: "See Mr. Nie."

Yang Zhao looked at a group of innocent people in front of him, they may be just traffickers, or just gangsters, but at this moment they are full of vigor and soul, enough to be proud of Shuangxue!
He suppressed the agitation in his chest, bowed deeply, and said sincerely: "What kind of virtue and ability is there for Zihui, you are so righteous that you will never forget it."

The crowd gave way one after another, and said anxiously: "Master Nie, you can't do it!"

Yang Zhao bowed three times stubbornly, and said solemnly, "Why can't it be done? Zihui bowed three times, one for the people of Li, two for Hongguo, and three for the righteousness of heaven and earth!"

As soon as these words were uttered, there was a resounding sound, and the officials behind Yang Zhao were all moved. They saluted three times like Mr. Nie, and bowed their backs for the first time facing these ordinary people.

Just when Xingyang County was united and united, several carriages slowly drove into the capital city of Huzhou. The imperial envoy, and a group of accompanying officials who have done a lot of research on water control.

This imperial envoy has always been of a strong character, and the prefect of Huzhou wanted to hold a banquet to welcome the wind, but he reprimanded him: "Nowadays, the people of Huzhou are suffering from floods. You can't empathize with the king's heart, and you can't comfort the people, so you still want to hold a banquet? If you are so leisurely, please go, I don't have the time!"

All the officials in Huzhou turned pale and angry, and they were afraid that he was a close minister of the emperor who could not be offended, so he had to apologize.

The imperial envoy convened people to sort out the disaster situation in Huzhou overnight. Now the torrential rain in the upper reaches has continued, and the flood peaks have come in waves.When he was looking through the file, he noticed that Xingyang County, which suffered frequent floods in previous years, was safe and sound this time. After several inquiries, he learned from the secretive report of the governor that the magistrate of Xingyang County had already warned about the flood, but Not being taken seriously, he was furious, and immediately ordered: "Since you are incompetent, if you don't let the capable ones live here, immediately order Xingyang County Magistrate Nie Qian'en to come to Fucheng to preside over the flood response in Huzhou!"

When Nie Huen received the appointment, Xingyang County withstood the flood again, and the people in the county breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Nie Huen was no longer just a county parent in their hearts, but a gift to them. The savior of the world, even Mrs. Lin appreciated this young county magistrate who was not afraid in the face of adversity and was decisive in adversity, which aroused Shen Xiangwen's jealousy.

That night, Nie Shan'en talked with Zui Miaojun until late at night, and the next day, he ordered a few cronies and went to Fucheng with light packs.

With the silver moon in front of the head and the stars dotted, Xingyang County is quiet, and every family has fallen asleep.

In the darkness, hundreds of figures gathered on the outskirts of the South Gate of Xingyang County, and the leader said in a low voice, "Remember, you only need to give Nie's house in Huawen Lane a word, and don't care about the rest. Just go for it, and someone will take care of everything. Also, make a quick decision!"

"Yes!"

A group of people groped their way to the south gate, and the leader nodded to a short man beside him. The man imitated the cuckoo call to the city gate, and after three consecutive cuckoo calls, he stopped and waited silently.

For a long while, there was no movement.

"The head of the family, didn't you say that the arrangements are made..."

The bandit leader was also wondering, but he thought of the identity of the informant, and also thought that there is no county magistrate in Xingyang County, so he felt relieved again: "Don't worry, wait a little longer."

While speaking, the city gate slowly opened a crack.

He lifted his spirits and waved his hands: "Follow me!"

A group of people quietly entered the city gate one by one, and looked around, but there was no guard, and it was exactly as the man said.The bandit leader laughed loudly and said, "Brothers, the money and food women in Xingyang County are all waiting to honor us, hahaha..."

The laughter didn't stop, only the sound of gongs and drums sounded in an instant, and the sound of dong dong spread throughout the county.

The bandit leader was taken aback for a moment, and immediately felt chills all over his body, as if he had been immersed in the icy water of February Day, he had been tricked!

In just a few breaths, the county is already brightly lit. Many men are holding sticks and weapons, and women are carrying pots, pans, knives and shovels. They are waiting for this group of uninvited visitors. However, the floods outside the city have not subsided, and there are bandits who intend to destroy their homes!
On the tower, Zui Miaojun bowed to the man in the silk shirt beside him: "Thank you for the righteous man today."

The man in the silk shirt hurriedly backed away: "Ma'am, I'm serious. I, Gui Qi, have known Mr. Nie for a long time, and this Xingyang County is the place where I was born and raised. How can I let them burn, kill and loot? If something happens, You can't spare me when the dog comes back."

This person is none other than Gui Qi who partnered with Nie Huen back then to scheme against Nie Dafu. A few days ago, Wang Gouzi had followed Nie Huen to Fucheng. Protect the lady.

Not long ago, a brother came to him and said with a happy face that he had made a fortune and asked him to take a look. It turned out that a mysterious person had thrown a package at his home, which contained a hundred taels of silver and a note. , but he was illiterate, so he had to turn to Guiqi for help.

"June [-]th, when you are ugly, hear cuckoo three times, open the city gate, and you will be paid a lot afterwards."

The note also stated that if he agreed, he could go to the corner of the city gate and draw a signal.

Gui Qi knew something was wrong when he saw it. Thinking of Wang Gouzi's explanation, he hurriedly went to Yu Miaojun to report the matter, and the other party asked him to follow his plan, and today's matter happened.

But he never expected that it would be a gangster!There are many mountain bandits and water bandits in Huzhou, who have done evil things for many years. Xingyang County was looted more than ten years ago. At that time, he was still very young. He hid under the wooden bed and told him not to come out no matter what. He hid obediently, only to see pairs of strange shoes passing by the bed, screams and the sound of weapons colliding from outside. , He was trembling with fright, as if his bones were rattling.

When everything calmed down, he plucked up the courage to get out from under the bed. He saw blood all over the walls and the floor. There was a big hole in his mother's chest, and the blood was still gushing out. His eyes were wide open. He was breathless, his father was crushing on his mother, the only connection between the neck and the head was only a layer of skin...

He became an orphan, he became a bastard, and then he grew up to this size.

The night wind from the city tower was blowing, with a strong sense of tide, making the robes rattle.

In the sound of the wind, I only heard Zui Miaojun say: "If they dare to come, then let them stay."

Stay and comfort the souls of the past.

It was when the night was dark and the wind was high, Xingyang County was already in battle, the government servants rushed to the front, the commoners were behind, and the robbers tried their best to escape for their lives. For a while, the sound of killing was endless.

Zui Miaojun went into battle in person, stood on top of the city tower, steadily drew his long bow, and pierced the bandit leader's right eye with an arrow, so startled that Gui Qi's eyes almost twinkled with stars.

Heroine!
Please take my knees!
After such a night, more than 100 robbers mostly died in the anger of the people, and the remaining [-] or so were captured one after another. Because of Nie Shan'en's absence, the county magistrate temporarily took his position and took them into custody with gritted teeth. Just a little bit close to losing his head!If he finds out that he is instigating behind the scenes, he will definitely not make it easier for the other party!

After repelling the robbers, the people of Xingyang County rejoiced. Although the shadow of the flood has not faded away, many people have already slaughtered pigs and sheep to celebrate. After all, they hate man-made disasters more than natural disasters.

At this time, a room in Nie's house was in a mess, and the butler knelt on the ground trembling. He thought that if he was confessed by the bandit leader, what awaited him would be more than a thousand cuts to pieces!

Nie Xiangwen kicked the housekeeper fiercely, and said angrily, "You did a good job!"

He is more afraid than the butler, even if he has space, he can hide in at any time, but his glorious life that has not yet begun must not end like this!

If all this comes to light...

Thinking of the truth Ma told him, Nie Xiangwen couldn't help but shudder.

"The small, small ones should be dealt with immediately." The butler replied tremblingly.

What answered him was a cold voice: "Clean it up, and leave no one behind!"
