Tong Yaoyao and maid Xing'er left in a hurry under the escort of their entourage.
In fact, she really wanted to see the outcome of the matter again, and even wanted to help the young man named Wu Xin.
But it was hard to disobey her father's orders, and something important was at stake, so she had to leave.
The last extra glance contained her worry, nostalgia, helplessness, and a touch of tenderness...
One glance for thousands of years.
Tong Yaoyao sat in the carriage, with that calm and handsome face still flashing in her mind...
Such a beautiful person was missed.
Wu Xin was very upset. She had never seen such a beautiful girl in her past life or this life. At this moment, there was only one question flashing in her mind:
"Whose girl is that?"
Liu Jin was still shouting, which made Wu Xin furious. He raised his arms and shouted: "Dear fellow villagers, what happened today has affected your appetite. I have decided to waive all orders. Everyone, eat well and drink well!"
"Wow!" The crowd chuckled.
"Miao Qing, Miao Hong! Throw the dead person out of the store, don't affect our business."
"yes!"
The cold and charming Miao Qing immediately reached out, picked up the old man on the ground, walked out of the door like a dead dog, and threw him on the street.
"What the hell..."
Liu Jin was dumbfounded and thought to himself: "Things didn't go according to the script. Wasn't it that the boy named Wu was frightened, apologized, and then negotiated compensation terms and contributed his tavern and brewing skills? ?”
This guy obviously doesn't play by the rules!
"Brothers, arrest them quickly!" Liu Jin hurriedly winked at several government officials.
Several government officials looked at me and I looked at you, but they were all indifferent.
One of the leading yamen servants quietly approached Liu Jin and lowered his voice: "Master Liu! If the lord doesn't say anything, we can't just arrest people. In my opinion, that guy is not a vegetarian either. We'd better go to the county government first! ... "
So, Liu Jin shouted angrily: "Come here! Carry someone to the county government office!"
"Go and report to the official..."
The troublemakers left, the crowd dispersed, and the tavern returned to normal.
That night.
It's late at night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.
In a room in the backyard of the county government office, the lights were brightly lit. In the room, two people, one fat and one thin, were drinking from cup to cup.
The fat man was dressed in official uniform and was the magistrate of Nantang County. The thin man was Liu Jin who was making a lot of noise in the tavern during the day. There was a man in black standing outside the window, quietly listening to the conversation in the room.
At this time, the fat and thin people were already eighty percent drunk. They were shaking their heads, their eyes were blurry, and they naturally spoke without any scruples.
"Brother-in-law! That boy named Wu is not good at morality. He didn't follow the script we designed..."
"Yeah?"
The fat man picked at the goo from the corners of his eyes and said, "The main reason is that I was not present today and was summoned by Lord Shangshu for questioning. Otherwise, I would have captured him on the spot and beaten him to the point where he cannot take care of himself..."
"Well!"
The magistrate burped and wiped the eye droppings he picked out on the table leg.
"Yes, yes!"
Liu Jin hurriedly filled up the glass again, "Brother-in-law, tomorrow you will send more people to capture that kid. First, give him a hundred killing blows and make him hand over the tavern and his wine-making skills..."
"Do not worry!"
The magistrate nodded, picked up the wine glass, shook it, and drank it all in one gulp.
"However, you are really capable. In order to seize someone else's hotel, you did not hesitate to take the old housekeeper's life."
"cough!"
Liu Jin coughed dryly and said, "Brother-in-law, you don't know something. The old guy has been seriously ill for a long time. He has only a few days to live. If he is alive, he will suffer. I gave him three hundred taels of silver and promised to take care of his wife at home." Xiao, he would be happy to die..."
"I see!"
"After the work is completed, we will add to the money earned from the business, and each person will take half..." Liu Jin said and filled the wine glass again.
"What a good plan!"
At this moment, a cold, untimely voice floated in from the window, followed by a nimble-looking man in black.
The man in black is holding a long sword with a cold light in his hand. In the candlelight, the shadow of the sword is swaying, and the cold air is biting.
"who?!"
The two of them lost their drunkenness and looked at the man in black who floated in in horror.
The man in black had his face covered, revealing only two glaring eyes, revealing a cold murderous aura.
"You...what do you want to do?"
"I'll kill you!" the man in black said, raising his sword and lowering it in one breath.
"Poof! Poof!"
"Ah! Ah!"
The sword is very fast, and the sword seals the throat.
The blood was very hot and spread all over the wine table.
…
The next day, it was dawn.
Wu Xin slept until about three o'clock in the morning and woke up naturally as usual.
Miao Qing and Miao Hong had already prepared face wash, prepared breakfast, and were waiting on their side.
Mr. Wu gently washed his face. While washing, he thought about yesterday's events again.
"I wonder if the county magistrate will cause trouble today? What kind of face does he have? Damn it! If you piss me off, I will make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, no, make a big fuss in the county government..."
"If a time-traveler cannot walk a few steps sideways in this world, then his trip has been in vain. Doesn't this embarrass the time-traveler?"
"Besides, I have a strong backing behind me, a woman with a big temper, high martial arts skills, and the head of a faction."
"What are you afraid of?"
"I am much better than those poor people who came from the countryside, prisoners in prison, deposed princes, abandoned orphans, etc. With such a background, if I don't stir up the world, it really can't be justified!..."
Wu Xin thought about it intermittently, and her mood suddenly became brighter.
"Master, young master..."
It was Qiao San who ran in furiously again, shouting loudly, "Something big happened again!"
"What's the matter?"
Wu Xin wiped her face, handed the towel to Miao Hong, and asked.
"The county magistrate and his brother-in-law were both killed last night. It was Liu Jin who made trouble in the tavern yesterday. Their heads are hanging on the city gate. They are still dripping with blood..."
Qiao San came to report the news in shock.
"Oh?" Wu Xin was also surprised.
"There is also a notice at the gate of the city. It is written clearly. It says that Liu Jin and his brother-in-law...are the magistrates of Nantang County. How the two planned to frame the young master and seize the tavern and the secret brewing recipe, etc..."
As Qiao San spoke, he swallowed hard and looked really shocked.
"Is there still this matter?"
"Yes! Master." Qiao San nodded desperately.
"It seems that someone is acting on behalf of heaven. He can't stand the collusion between government and businessmen and is making a bad mouthful for us!"
Wu Xin said disapprovingly and started today's breakfast. Qiao San wiped her sweat and went back to the tavern.
Miao Qing and Miao Hong looked at each other and remained silent, as if they had guessed something.
"well!"
Wu Xin sighed softly, "Since you don't have to go to the hall, let's go to the school for a while."
Wu Xin's head suddenly swelled at the thought of going to study again, and even breakfast lost its taste.
