When he arrived on the road, Thirteen Lang said to Second Sister Xie: "The dog said outside, I don't want your money, let you go home." Where is your home? We'll send you back. It's not early, and we still have to hurry. ”

Second Sister Xie said: "How dare I go home? The deed of sale is still in Pan Yuanwai's house, and if you leave, he will definitely come to my house to find someone. ”

Thirteen Lang said: "He has already said just now, let you go home, how can you still go to get people?" ”

Second Sister Xie smiled and said in a low voice: "Brother is so stupid - he was scared of being beaten by you, so he said so." If the matter is reported to the yamen, the yamen will not admit it. Only when he leaves the county and can't find anyone can he get out of the clutches. When the deadline has passed, I will no longer be afraid of him. ”

Seeing that Shisanlang was silent in thought, Chen Shuo on the side couldn't stand it, and said, "In this case, my sister will go back with us and stay with the sister-in-law of the Yao family for a few days." Wouldn't it be nice to wait until there was nothing to do, and then add another family. ”

Thirteen Lang clapped his hands: "That's right!" Why didn't I think of that just now? ”

The rest laughed together. Seeing that it was not early, I was afraid of complications, so I hurriedly went on the road together. Before arriving in Xiangzhou, it was already dark, so he rested at the foot of Lumen Mountain for a night, and the next day until sunset, he returned to the camp and field.

When he arrived at home, Yao's second brother asked his wife to rest for a while, and asked him to call his younger brother Yao Shouxin to go to the town to buy wine and food. Everyone helped him bring his wife back, and he should have set up a wine to thank Shisanlang and a few people.

Under the grape trellis in the courtyard, a pot of charcoal was lit, and everyone sat around, and Yao Shouxin listened to everyone talk about the situation.

After hearing this, Yao Shouxin couldn't help frowning: "Oh, it's not good, you're just afraid of getting into trouble this time!" If I could use it, I would have led someone to knock on the door of Pan Yuanwai's house! He has a contract in his hand, and you have brought it back, will you not suffer a lawsuit? ”

Thirteen Lang said: "Brother, it's okay." When I beat the old dog, the people around me could hear it clearly, and he himself said that he would put everyone in his own house and not need any money. Many witnesses, can he still rely on them? ”

Yao Shouxin smiled bitterly: "Sect leader, you also know that he was beaten to say these words, how can he do it?" When he arrived at the Yamen, he only had to agree to get out as long as he said that he was forced by you, do you think the Yamen would take those words seriously? ”

Thirteen Lang followed Du Zhongxiao's side, although he always felt that these lawsuits were not in line with his own wishes, and he had never been careful, but after all, he had seen a lot in the past few years. As soon as Yao Shouxin said it, he felt reasonable. Beat people by yourself, but I am afraid that the officials will not protect themselves.

After being silent for a while, Shisanlang asked Yao Shouxin: "So, what does my brother have in mind?" ”

Yao Shouxin thought for a while and said, "It's already like this, so I have to make mistakes." If you want to avoid a lawsuit, you have to trouble raising officials. ”

These words are in line with Thirteen Lang's heart, for so many years, he has never seen Du Zhongxiao stumped by something. Hurriedly asked, "What does my brother have in mind?" As long as I can avoid the lawsuit, I will definitely help me! ”

Yao Shouxin said: "If I have an idea, why bother to raise officials? I mean, you can only let Tiju come forward, and he will definitely have a way to keep you from going to court. What is the way, only the lifting officer knows. ”

Thirteen Lang couldn't help but be embarrassed when he heard this: "I can't hold back my temperament this time, I don't fit in with someone, if I tell you to lift, I'm afraid I'll scold me." ”

Yao Shouxin said: "It's all come to this point, are you still afraid of scolding?" If you really want to hide it from the officials, when the incident happens, other yamen will come to the camp to get people, and the promotion will not just scold you! I have a plan for this, you can see whether it will work or not. Leader, you must explain to Tiju tomorrow what is going on and what you did at that time, you must be clear and clear, and you must not hide it in the slightest. I asked my sister-in-law and the second sister Xie to find an opportunity to tell my wife to know. The lady is kind-hearted, and she must not allow the yamen to arrest people back, and the matter will be secured. ”

Thirteen Lang clapped his hands: "This plan is wonderful!" If a lady comes forward, it will be a big problem, and the officials will inevitably turn big things into small things, and small things will be turned into small things! ”

The discussion stopped, Xie Erlang bought wine and food and came back, and everyone drank wine and ate meat to celebrate the reunion of Second Brother Yao and his wife. It's a big thing, as long as his wife comes forward, Du Zhongxiao can't shirk it, and he can always pass, so why worry about it.

In the Jiaoyue Army, artillery and cavalry are two valuable arms, and the importance in Du Zhongxiao's eyes is that artillery is still above the cavalry. Yao Shouxin had a talent for artillery and artillery command, and he was originally an officer of the Xiang Army, and as an instructor and commander of artillery, he was very highly regarded by Du Zhongxiao. Thirteen Lang is also an instructor and commander of the cavalry, and he has been with Du Zhongxiao for nearly ten years, and he is completely his own person. This time, the two of them were not too worried.

In addition to a countryman, two female envoys, what kind of big deal is it? Shisanlang fought back, what happened to how many punches he punched? What is the status of the superintendent along the way? It's not a trivial matter to put it on the table.

This time, except for the second brother Yao, who was involved, all of them were junior officers of cavalry and artillery, who were superior in the Xiang army, and they were not comparable to ordinary people.

In addition to the commanders and ordinary soldiers, there were also a large number of middle classes in the Song Dynasty army, which were generally divided into two types: envoys and ministers. Needless to say, the envoy has an official position, but for various reasons, he is not an officer, and there is no one under him, so he is only used as an ordinary soldier. The utility is voluntarily charged, and those who serve in the army are both civil and military. They are either brave or have special talents, unlike ordinary soldiers. The utility is generally not tattooed, and the money and food are much higher than those of the soldiers, and they have a special role, which is somewhat similar to the non-commissioned officers after the post.

The military law of the Song Dynasty was strict, but when it was actually implemented, it was rewarded and punished, and if a mistake was made, it would not necessarily be investigated, but it would be rewarded for meritorious service. The consequence of this is that after a few battles, there will be a large number of petty officers in the army, and it will be impossible to assign them positions. After several years of war with the party, there are now a large number of such petty officials without soldiers in the Northwest Forbidden Army, commonly known as envoys. The elite troops that are overflowing to some are all officers, and they are often used as sharp knives or death squads.

In the Legion Army, cavalry and artillery were valuable arms, and with the exception of a few non-combatants, the rest were almost exclusively envoys and utility. There are many envoys in the artillery, and there is a lot of utility in the cavalry, and as an army that has not been in battle, the proportion is frighteningly high.

Yao Shouxin and Shisanlang, who commanded the artillery and cavalry, were superior in the army in peacetime, and their status was higher than that of other infantry commanders. It is a habit formed on a daily basis that the petty officers in the artillery and cavalry think very highly of themselves, and they dare to do what the average officer does not dare to do. If something really happens, Du Zhongxiao will also protect him. These two branches of the army are the nobles of the army in the teaching and reading army. With this status, as soon as Thirteen Lang said it, a group of people followed him. The general teaching and reading army does not have the courage of them.

Yao Shouxin, as the coach and commander of the artillery, was only below a few senior commanders, and everyone else was under him except for Yang Wenguang and Zhao Zi, who led the troops. This kind of thing happened to his family, and many people in the army were not convinced. When he came back this time, except for Yao Shouxin, who felt troublesome, everyone else was elated, consciously did what they had to do, and showed their faces for Xiang Jun.

In Yao Er's courtyard, several people shouted and drank until late at night.

In Yicheng County, Pan Yuanwai returned home to greet Zhuangke, and invited a few people in the township who were rumored to have martial arts, looking for Shisanlang and others everywhere. I searched and searched and couldn't find it, and I heard that I had left the county border, and I filed a complaint with the county office.
