Country color

Chapter 150

After the book office yelled, no one came out from the gate for a long time, and the other party couldn't help losing face, and urged a few more words in succession, but the several Zhuang Ding at the door were perfunctory, and their attitude was not very respectful, and even They were not asked to go in to shelter from the snow.

At this time, Gong Cao couldn't help showing his old face to show up in person, finally several people came out from the gate of Wubao.Hearing that the person who was being greeted by the other party was not the patriarch, Gong Cao was even more furious, and gave the book office a wink, which obviously meant to make the Zhao family look good.

The place to welcome guests is in the ancestral hall, so the big families in the north all have their clans and their genealogies.

The head of the Zhao family is an old man in his 50s, apparently prone to accidents, and immediately ordered someone to bring buttermilk to Li Chongjiu and the others.The book office was the one who came forward to deal with it, and the book office suffocated, and said: "Party Leader Zhao, you Shangchehe Township, the autumn grain that you should pay this year is 610 five shi in total. It is customary to pay half of it first, and make up the rest before next spring. In addition, the imperial court recruits bravery from the countryside to wipe out the rebels. You have a total of 150 households in Shangchehe Township, and each household recruits one man, a total of [-] people. It must be confiscated immediately, and there must be no mistakes."

Patriarch Zhao's eyes were cold, he stared at the book office for a long time, then suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and said: "Autumn grain, where did the autumn grain come from? Wang Xuba was in a mess. Is there any surplus grain in Shanggu County Manjun County?"

The secretary snorted coldly and said, "Party Leader Zhao, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense. I just saw a cart of food outside. What is it?"

"This is our Zhao family's winter preparation, the hope of the whole clan, what will we eat if we give it to you?" Patriarch Zhao said bluntly.

Hearing this, Li Chongjiu and Gongcao were both surprised, and the other party didn't show any face in person, obviously they were going to tear their faces.Gongcao coughed quickly, signaling that the book office could no longer be strong.Those who hang out in the yamen are all good people. After seeing Gongcao's instructions, the book office immediately said: "The matter of autumn grains should be postponed for a while. Then the courage of the village is a matter of protecting the environment and the people. Patriarch Zhao can't shirk it." Alright."

Patriarch Zhao stretched out his ten fingers and clasped them tightly. At this time, footsteps came out from the corridor next to the ancestral hall, and a woman's voice said, "I can't give you the courage of the township." Turning around to see the woman, she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, although she was made of coarse hairpins, she was quite beautiful, and she was holding a horizontal knife under her hand, she was full of heroic spirit.

"Who are you, how dare you be so presumptuous! Party Leader Zhao, I order you to detain this person and hand him over to the official." The Secretary Office said.

Patriarch Zhao didn't say a word. He glanced at the other party and said unhappily, "Why did you come out?"

The other party clasped his fists and said, "Naturally, I will help third uncle make your next decision."

Hearing what the other party said, the secretary was still at a loss, but Gong Cao sat down on Hu's bed again with a thud.Everyone could hear the indistinct sound of many footsteps around the ancestral hall.Patriarch Zhao said to the woman angrily, "Are you forcing me?"

The woman clasped her fists and said, "Third Uncle, the officials force the people to rebel. If the court is obedient to the people, it will only be worse than one day. Sooner or later, the family will be destroyed. It is better to abandon this broken family and go to Gaojibo with us to replace the sky." walk."

The secretary's legs were weak at the moment, and he pointed at the other party and said, "Gao Jibo! You are Gao Kaidao, the traitor of Dou Jiande's gang!"

"Exactly!" The woman said decisively, "I don't change my family name or surname when I walk in the family, it is Dou Xianniang, the aunt of the Dou family."

Hearing the other party's self-reported identity, everyone changed color. This woman reported Xingzang's name in order to force Patriarch Zhao to choose between the imperial court and the Gaojibo rebels.Dou Xianniang, Li Chongjiu was surprised that there really was such a person.

Gongcao stood up tremblingly, and said: "Party Leader Zhao, your Zhao family is a good citizen who has served the public for generations. If you capture this woman and hand it over to the court, you will not be paid for the food, and you can not be recruited for the bravery of the village. This is a great achievement. !"

When Gongcao said this, Li Chongjiu saw that Patriarch Zhao's face changed, and Dou Xianniang's face showed joy, and he knew something bad at the moment.At that moment Patriarch Zhao stood up and said: "Grand Dou is very kind to me, how can I criticize his daughter, I have no choice but to do what happened today, as for oh, I'm forced to go to Gaojibo."

"Uncle Zhao is right." Dou Xianniang looked happy, but with the palm of her hand, she drew out the horizontal knife and slashed at the book office.Everyone was too late to react, but they all thought that this woman was so ruthless, that patriarch Zhao's obvious intention of rebelling was still not firm, and that the other party's killing of court officials was tantamount to Forcing him to show his ambition, he broke with the court.

Just at this moment, Li Chongjiu moved. He jumped up and threw Dou Xianniang to the ground, holding Dou Xianniang tightly.After Li Chongjiu practiced health-preserving skills, his hands had hundreds of pounds of strength, but this press was like cast iron, how could the opponent break free.Dou Xianniang saw that the other party's strength was far stronger than her own, she snorted coldly, her legs flew up, and she kicked Li Chongjiu's crotch.

"What a sinister mother!" Li Chongjiu pressed his leg against her, and pressed her down with her whole body.Under Li Chongjiu's brutal tactics, Dou Xianniang gasped heavily, but the handle of the knife in her hand fell to the ground.Chongjiu took advantage of the momentum to pick up the knife and put it on the opponent's neck.But when he stood up, he found that dozens of Zhaojiazhuang men had already entered the ancestral hall with sticks.

"Good strength, a hero like you, why are you willing to sacrifice your life for the dog emperor, why not walk with us for the heavens!" Dou Xianniang said with a sharp knife in her neck.

Li Chongjiu secretly smiled inwardly, but pretended to be tongue-tied, and said, "Zhou Shu...does it right...the little one has...great kindness, you don't make things difficult for him."
In Dou Xianniang's heart, this person is probably a fool, and she said: "Whoever makes things difficult for him, as long as you let me go immediately, let you go together, and you will never break your promise."

"Okay!" Li Chongjiu just agreed, when the book office was at the side, Gongcao opened his hands and shouted together, saying: "Hou...no!"

Dou Xianniang stomped her feet, thinking that she had immediately tricked the fool, but was interrupted by the other party.
Hearing their obstruction, Li Chongjiu showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and said: "Girl, how...is this good?"

Patriarch Zhao said at this time: "Since this is the case, the old man has an idea, Zhou Shuban, you go ahead, this little brother, you stay here, and after Zhou Shuban and them go away, how about you let Miss Dou go? "

At the office of the book, the two Gong Cao and Cao nodded together and said, "Party Leader Zhao has a good opinion!"

Li Chongjiu glared at them angrily, the book office, Gongcao quickly changed his words: "No, let's go together!"

"Let them go, even if they don't have the guts to hurt me," Dou Xianniang said loudly.
