On this night, Wang Daoyun and Wu did not return from the governor's yamen, Wang Daokun ordered someone to send a letter, saying that it was a rare reunion, leaving them to stay in the governor's yamen for one night. Wang Fulin didn't care much about this, however, not long after he slept at night, he was woken up by the sound of crying, he thought it was a nightmare, but he woke up in a daze for a while, but he could always catch a faint cry in his ears, and now he felt a little hairy.

He himself had experienced the strangest things in the world, so he didn't dare to disbelieve the ghosts and gods, so he pulled his shoes and got out of bed, went to the door, listened for a moment, and then looked out through the crack in the door.

In the middle of the courtyard, there is a girl in white who is burning paper! What is this playing, A Chinese Ghost Story?

After carefully looking at it for a while, Wang Fulin was still not sure if it was a ghost or a real person, so he quietly retreated, went to the floor on the other side, and directly woke up the dart master who was sleeping here at night. He didn't have so many enemies, but he was afraid of death, so even if he had a sword wrapped in the quilt around him, there was still someone left in the house to act as a guard. When the two of them went to the door together and looked at it again through the crack in the door for a while, the sturdy man that Yang Wen had carefully selected for Wang Fulin was completely sleepy, and then whispered with certainty: "It's not a ghost, it's a person, there is a shadow." ”

Of course, Wang Fulin also saw the shadow of the other party, but he always felt unsteady, so he glanced at the dart master next to him. Seeing that the person suddenly opened the door with a bang, and then rushed out of the door with an arrow, shouting who it was, and the woman in white got up in a panic to escape, he couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness. This kind of drama is really too much like chatting about strange things. Fortunately, this is not the kind of abrupt inn in the barren mountains and mountains. It is the most lively place in the whole Hankou Town, Xin'an Street. He's not a lone scholar! Sure enough, the woman in white staggered when she ran away, and was stopped after a few steps.

"What are you burning paper for in the yard?"

Seeing that on the other side of the hall, a young man in a white middle coat walked directly towards him, and as soon as he said this, the girl who was also wearing white couldn't help but take a step back, and then knelt down with a plop, and pleaded with a cry: "Little official." Please, do well, help my family! My eldest brother was killed on the Xin'an Wharf today, but the culprit is at large, although the boss gave me fifty taels of silver to burn and bury at home, but fifty taels of human life, what should my mother and I do? Not only my family, but at least a dozen families on Xin'an Street have either lost their fathers, or their husbands, or their brothers and sons! ”

Although it was reported in the afternoon that there was a big brawl at Xin'an Pier. But Wang Fulin didn't plan to be nosy, so he didn't go out to see. But now, the woman in white who was burning paper in the yard in the middle of the night suddenly revealed such a death and injury, and he suddenly felt a sigh in his heart. This kind of thing is a group fight, and in the future generations, people will die if they are a little bad, not to mention the rush to grab the dock with a park knife in these years? At this moment, before he could speak, the people sleeping in the east and west wings were all alarmed by the loud drink just now and the voice of the girl, and with the sound of human footsteps, it didn't take long for someone to come out with a lamp, and when they saw such a scene in the courtyard, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Wang Fulin raised his eyebrows, and then ordered: "Go find the innkeeper, when will the top inn on Xin'an Street casually let people come in in the middle of the night to burn paper and disturb the guests!" ”

The girl in white didn't expect Wang Fulin not to ask about her reason, but to investigate the inn first, and she was a little flustered, but before she could stop her, the person had already left. She had to kowtow twice and said: "Little officials, one person does things and one person is responsible, it's none of anyone else's business." Several of our families died because of their heartaches, but the wealthy merchants in charge of the dock wanted to suppress the matter and settle the matter, and each family only gave fifty taels of buried silver. It happened that someone sent a message that the nephew of Wang Buyuan, the governor of Huguang, lived in this inn, and I was publicly pushed out to beg the petty officials for mercy. ”

Wang Fulin is very sure that Ma Liang and Liu Qian came here yesterday to inquire about themselves, but the shopkeepers are still not convinced, but today the two of them followed him to the governor's yamen to confirm the matter, and Ma Liang came again, and it is not surprising that Yuer publicized it. However, who would point the victim to come to him after such a big brawl at Xin'an Wharf, this is a very debatable question.

"Who told you that I am the nephew of Wang Buyuan, the governor of Huguang?"

"I ......"

The girl straightened up, not knowing how to speak. She was born with a beautiful appearance, plus she wants to be pretty, she is filial, and her white clothes are even more moving. She didn't expect that everything was completely different from the scripts and dramas she read, even if it was a little difficult to climb the high branches, but when those noble sons saw the people in distress, wouldn't they all be indignant and lend a helping hand, and clean up those domineering officials and bullies? She bit her red lip, her eyes were already full of mist, but when she saw that Wang Fulin was turning her head and saying something to the people around her, she didn't look at herself at all, and she suddenly became a little angry.

Why is this son so indifferent, didn't those disciples in the past give their souls when they saw themselves?

"It was when Master Yama of Hanyang County came over today, and he made a move on this inn guy, and I happened to have no way to ask for help, and when I heard the news from the guy's mouth, I wanted to try my luck." Speaking of this, the girl suddenly fell to the ground again, and cried bitterly, "My mother only has one son, the eldest brother, and he died like this, what will my mother do for the rest of her life?" ”

Or is it the ghost that Master Ma is messing with? As soon as this thought appeared, Wang Fulin immediately cut it off, Ma Liang had waited for him for so long before, so he couldn't be angry at mentioning his relationship with Wang Daokun to others, it was normal, maybe there was also a bit of an attempt to create momentum, but to say that to incite the bitter master to come to him to make trouble, it would be simply blind to the mind of the famous master. A case of fighting with weapons killed a lot of people, and it caused trouble to the county government, this is a big case that shook Hanyang Mansion and even the entire Huguang, for Zhou Xianzun, who has to collect more taxes and less people to get the best evaluation, what is the benefit of this?

Although it was the middle of the night, there was such an incident, and the shopkeeper and two young men soon arrived. I learned what happened. His face turned pale. glanced at the white-clothed girl on the ground with a vicious gaze. Seeing that people were lying on the ground and not getting up, he was helpless, and hurriedly asked the young man to call his mother-in-law, so as to save men and women from kissing and making a name problem. In response to Wang Fulin's questioning, he said that he would invite people aside, and then bowed and said, "Little official, Master Ma mentioned your identity in the afternoon. I don't know which guy passed it on, the villain ......"

Woke up in the middle of the night, watching such a monkey show, Wang Fulin knew that it would be difficult to find out who was the news at this time, so he immediately signaled to the shopkeeper not to continue to explain, but asked bluntly: "What happened to the fight at Xin'an Wharf?" ”

"This ......" The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and thought that everyone had complained to Wang Fulin, and he finally decided to tell the truth. Petty official, here's the thing. Our Xin'an Wharf occupies the best port in Hankou Town, the Dongting Merchant Gang and the Jiangxi Gang have always been unconvinced, for the dock berthing, often fighting, this time the Dongting Gang hired a large group of men from Baoqing Mansion, and suddenly made an appointment to fight our Hui Gang, so there was the previous gambling wharf fight. If you win, you can move the boundary of the dock to the losing side for two miles, and several wealthy merchants on Xin'an Street naturally desperately recruited those who could fight, so they ......"

The shopkeeper thought of Wang Fulin's "deep" background, coupled with the fact that his inn was at fault first, and he actually let such a person come in in the middle of the night to disturb the guests' sleep, so he didn't dare to be sloppy, and explained in great detail to the organization of this fight. Knowing that the Hui Gang is in charge of Xin'an Wharf is mainly the Hui Chamber of Commerce, and in the Hui Chamber of Commerce, the share is mainly the Bao family, the Huang family, and the Xu family, he can't help but remember that when he went to see the old lady Xu, the old man explained to him in detail the pattern of Hui merchants in Hankou Town, and at the same time, there was also the famous thorn that blocked a lot of trouble along the way.

Therefore, when he caught a glimpse of a woman coming, he said that he had taken away the girl who was like a ghost in white, and he was relieved, so he ordered the shopkeeper to take good care of the woman and comfort her, and he sent someone to add a new lock to the courtyard door, and then returned to the room. However, he couldn't talk about drowsiness at all, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this weapon fight was strange. Remembering the chatter he had heard in Tianxing Tower before, he suddenly rolled over on the bed and sat up.

Wouldn't it be that this time it was actually who was calculating Wang Daokun through the battle between the Hui Gang and the Dongting Shang Gang, and then he unfortunately happened to coincide with the meeting, right? If this is really the case, Wang Daokun, you are a disaster star, and you are embarrassed to talk about other people's disaster stars, it is too much!

Although the "female ghost burned paper" in the middle of the night, the next morning, Wang Fulin still rushed to the gap between the morning hall and the afternoon hall and came to the Hanyang County Ya. This time, he naturally received a high courtesy, Ma Liang and Liu Qian greeted him together, and when he arrived at the door of the study, the smiling Zhou Xianzun was already standing at the door, obviously just because of the majesty of the lord of a county, it was not good to flatter him too much to meet him at the door.

Wang Fulin was still very respectful to Zhou County in person, and he was polite, but as soon as the door of the study was closed, he was not so polite, and said to Ma Liang bluntly: "Master Ma, you went to the inn to see me yesterday, and told the guy that I am the nephew of Wang Buyuan, the governor of Huguang, and the result is good. I didn't promise, I didn't agree, so I took advantage of today to come to Zhou Xianzun to thank and apologize, I can only ask you, what should I do? ”

Seeing Zhou Xianzun's face suddenly froze, while Liu Qian first gloated, and then looked at himself with some sympathy, Ma Liang couldn't wait to give himself a mouthful. He made it clear to his buddy that Wang Fulin's identity was not only for people to serve him well, but also for another meaning, to let people see how Wang Fulin relied on Wang Daokun's power to treat him, the person around the lord of a county, but he never thought that he would cause such trouble.

Wang Fulin saw that Ma Liang was speechless, so he continued: "It is said that the Hui Gang has killed at least a few people this time, and they are dissatisfied with the hard pressure from above, and they give little money for burning and burying. Looking at this posture, I am afraid that someone will run to the county office to complain. ”

Zhou Xianzun was so angry at this time that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and the dead people who fought were also dead, and it was not one who died, but it was likely to die more than a dozen, such a thing made a fuss, how could he, the county commander, want to be promoted in the future? It was easy for him to brush up on the achievement of being the first in tax collection for two consecutive years, there were only theft cases and no theft cases in the local area, only injuries were not killed, and the case was judged fairly, is this the end of this time?

PS: I haven't been sick in the past few years, and this time I finally gave the color to see, and last time I joked about the lazy cat, retribution... (To be continued......)
