A knife in love

Chapter 2075
The more Wang Xiaoyu heard it, the happier he became, and he said, "If it were me, I would definitely beat up the dog official magistrate first. After he handed over the money, he would be killed with a single knife, and then the things he searched for would be killed. Wouldn't it be nice to distribute all the people's fat and people's ointment to the poor people in Wangqi County?"

The shopkeeper sighed, shook his head, and continued: "Uncle Ji led a group of men to trap the magistrate, a group of officials, and wealthy households in the lobby of the magistrate's yamen, and he was very happy to see his men keep taking the money back. When all the money was in hand, Uncle Ji forced the county magistrate to write a note, and his subordinates took it out, and handed it over to the police officers outside, asking them to find more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages and forty horses. He brought the horse into the yamen for use. Then, in the name of the county magistrate, he drove all the policemen guarding the yamen out of the yamen. Then he put all the silver in the hall into boxes and loaded them into the carriage.

"Uncle Ji ordered his subordinates to tie up the magistrate's group tightly, stuffed cloth balls into their mouths, and piled them up in the lobby. Before he left, he told the magistrate and others with a smile that he was nothing at all. Shang, but a hero of the green forest. I heard that the magistrate was raging land in Wangqi County, so he brought his brothers here to fight for justice. Today, he punished slightly and took the ill-gotten gains of the magistrate and others, but Inadvertently hurt their lives. If this matter spreads, the magistrate and others will definitely become a laughing stock. Even if the magistrate of Dongyang Prefecture does not punish him, the governor’s yamen, the court officials’ department, and the censor will definitely be impeached and the head of the magistrate will be picked off. Wu Shamao. If the county magistrate is more sensible and tries to cover up this matter, he may be able to serve as an official for a few more years."

Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help but startled when the shopkeeper said this, thinking that Mr. Storyteller told about the heroes in Wagang Village who fought for justice and would never let corrupt officials go.Not only do they have to plunder the gold and silver treasures collected by corrupt officials and distribute them to the poor, but they also have to kill corrupt officials as an example to others.The magistrate of Wangqi County is greedy by nature, harms the people, and has his own way of death.This hero surnamed Ji has captured the county magistrate's group and got the money, so he should kill all these dog officials.Otherwise, after these heroes leave, the county magistrate will find ways to retaliate.I think the hero surnamed Ji said this on purpose so that the Zhixian gang would not fight desperately. When these people were negligent, they would kill all these villains.

When Wang Xiaoyu was thinking about it, he only heard the shopkeeper continue to say: "The magistrate and the others were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders were torn apart, how dare they say no? Besides, these officials are like mirrors in their hearts. A lot of silver taels have been paid, but as long as the black yarn cap is still there, the silver can be earned back. If the black yarn hat is lost, it will be more difficult to earn back the silver. Therefore, this matter must not be let the court censor and officials Know, otherwise the official position will not be guaranteed. The county magistrate and others were originally worried that the group surnamed Ji would not only rob the money, but also take their lives, but after hearing what the surname Ji said, they knew that this person did not dare to kill officials, but Threatening everyone not to spread the matter, lest the imperial court send a large army to kill. Both sides have their own fears, so it is best not to say anything about it.

"After Uncle Ji finished speaking, he led a group of people out of the lobby. Those who rode horses rode horses, and those who drove carts drove all the way out of the magistrate's yamen. After Uncle Ji went out, he called the leader of the police stationed outside the yamen and told them The magistrate and others are fighting crickets in the lobby, and outsiders are absolutely not allowed to come in to disturb them. If anyone dares to disobey the order, not only will they be beaten eighty times, but they will also be imprisoned. After three days, they will be sent in with food and drinks.

"The chief catcher heard what Uncle Ji said, although he was puzzled, but he knew that the county magistrate, master, book office, chief catcher and others were all greedy. Maybe after winning Uncle Ji's 1000 taels of silver, he was very interested in gambling. It is not unusual to continue gambling with other officials and wealthy businessmen without outsiders being disturbed. Therefore, he agreed without hesitation, and ordered his police officers not to enter the lobby, so as not to disturb the magistrate's gambling.

"Since Uncle Ji brought people into the yamen, more than a dozen hours have passed. Most of the people waiting outside the yamen to watch the excitement have dispersed, but there are still hundreds of idlers standing on the street outside the yamen, wanting to know about the gamble. Who wins and who loses."

When the shopkeeper said this, Wang Xiaoyu suddenly smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, I don't know if your old man is among the hundreds of idlers?"

After Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, the shopkeeper was a little embarrassed.He coughed dryly twice, forced a smile on his face, and said, "I was busy with business in the restaurant at that time, how could I have time to go outside the yamen to watch the excitement?"

When he said this, he paused for a while, and couldn't help turning his head to look at the short fat man.The short fat man snorted, and said: "I was standing among those hundreds of idlers. But at that time, I got impatient and was about to turn around and leave when I saw a group of people surnamed Ji riding horses and driving carts, coming from the yamen. Walked out. Someone whispered, when this group of people entered the Yamen, they only carried four or five large wooden boxes, how come they drove a carriage and rode tall horses when they came out? Could it be that the magistrate lost the fight with crickets and searched him out? I lost all the gold and silver treasures to the surname Ji?"

When the short fat man said this, the shopkeeper said: "After the group of people surnamed Ji walked away, the tolerance officers in the yamen thought that the county magistrate would not allow them to enter the lobby, so they guarded outside the yamen, and no one dared to go to the lobby. I went to investigate. It wasn't until three days later that the head of the police went to the lobby to ask the magistrate for instructions. Only then did he realize that the magistrate's group was tightly tied up and thrown in the lobby. These people did not eat or drink for three days, and their bodies were The rope was tied so tightly that they could only defecate in their pants. In addition, there were two corpses in the lobby, so after opening the door, the smell in the lobby was so bad that people in the lobby wanted to vomit.

"Tolerance officers rushed into the lobby and rescued the magistrate and others. After the magistrate was rescued, he strictly ordered that this matter must not be spread. It's just that there are many people and mixed opinions, and this matter was finally known to the people. Naturally, everyone is gloating. Thinking of the embarrassment of Zhixian's group, many people couldn't help laughing out loud.

"But within a few days, the magistrate's office found all kinds of excuses to pay more taxes. Even my small restaurant, the tax was increased by 35%, and I had to pay an extra [-] taels of silver every year. Only then did everyone understand that the dog official of the magistrate He was robbed of a lot of money by Uncle Ji. He didn't dare to settle accounts with the gang named Ji, but wanted to seize the money back from the common people. During those days, Wangqi County was in chaos, and the Tolerance police were everywhere. People, forcing the people to pay money. If someone refuses to pay, they will be arrested and tortured in the yamen. Unless the family members take money to redeem the person, they will be put in prison and suffer endless suffering."

When the shopkeeper said this, Wang Xiaoyu couldn't bear it anymore, and said loudly: "Is there any law for this?! Even the green forest robbers are not as vicious as these dog officials! And the group of people surnamed Ji are nothing. I originally thought that they were heroes who robbed the money from the county magistrate and distributed it to the poor people. But after they took the money and left, the people in Wangqi County suffered a lot. It seems that this person He is not a good person either, he is the same as Zhixian and his group, they should all be damned!"
