Chapter 171 Bet
On the Yangtze River, in a large ship, Yu Hui, who had retired from serving as the peace envoy of Sichuan, was drinking in the cabin.

"Kill Wang Weizhong unjustly? If you don't kill him, how can the old man let go of things?"

As Yu Hui spoke, holding his cup and sighing, he said again: "Wang Weizhong is domineering and domineering. He holds power and disregards orders. Moreover, the people of Shu are fierce and often disobey orders. If we are foreign officials, it is absolutely difficult to implement administrative orders without extraordinary means... ...Again, the old man can only kill Wang Weizhong, otherwise he will be ostracized and expelled by him."

"Yes, others call it a 'personal grievance', but in fact, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty was fiercely contested between parties, from the court to the village. Where is there not to fight for power? The atmosphere dictates that Alang has no choice."

Yu Hui spat: "Shu people scolded me badly, I have had enough of being an official here in Sichuan and Shu! I have worked so hard all my life, and I am notorious in history!"

As he spoke, he felt really wronged, and tears flowed down his eyes. He picked up his brush and ink and wrote a poem on the cabin wall.

"A man has all kinds of loyal things, where is his name not like this?

Today, the boat returns home with Fu, and my heart is like the autumn moon printing on the river. "

The staff who accompanied the wine looked at this poem and recalled the experience in Sichuan, and their hearts were also sad.

He understood Yu Hui's helplessness, but thought: "The court didn't hold A Lang accountable for killing Wang Weizhong. The problem is, you killed people and seized power, and you kept losing battles! Even if you win one game, it's not like that..."

~~
"General Wang has learned from the past, officials in Shu must not repeat the same mistakes."

Jiang Yan said, and then said: "In the battle of Langzhou back then, if Yu Hui hadn't instructed him improperly, how could he have been defeated? In the end, he falsely accused the general of the king as collaborating with the enemy; after that, Zijin Mountain and Kuzhu Pass were defeated one after another, and the situation in western Sichuan was in a state of confusion. , All of them are obscuring and misleading the country!
Although a county is small, the truth is the same.Now in this Qingfu County, you are like a general king, and Li Xia is a child, even worse than Yu Hui, so he must be resolutely driven away! "

Fang Yankai had some concerns in his eyes, and let out a long sigh.

"The position of the master is higher than that of the county lieutenant, and all the soldiers and civilians in the county are interested in Dong Weng. Now, Dong Weng's situation is better than that of General Wang, so why worry?"

Fang Yankai said: "I thought that more than a dozen archers would make him unable to get down. Unexpectedly, he is actually quite brave..."

Jiang Yan said: "Don't worry, Dong Weng, Hu Manzi has already dispatched dozens of archers and brought bows and knives. No matter how brave Li Xia is, how many people can he fight?"

"I'm only worried if I hug Manzi over there." Fang Yankai said worriedly: "Wu Ang is a rational person, so I left this matter to him, but Huu Manzi is a reckless one. .”

"Wu Bantou is still there, so he can hold back Hu Manzi."

"More than a dozen people are still fighting privately, and dozens of people surrounded the county lieutenant, but it is a rebellion."

"No, it can be said that it is the will of the people, not to mention that Shi Zhizhou can suppress it." Jiang Yan said: "It is only today to drive Li Xia away."

"I'm afraid of killing people."

"Team Wu has a sense of propriety and won't kill Li Xia. As long as he knows what's going on, he's willing to take a step back."

Fang Yankai no longer had any interest in business, so he took a few steps in the public room and said, "Then...will you go to save the place later?"

"Exactly, it's time for Li Xia to learn enough lessons."

~~
On the long street, cold sweat was streaming down Wu Ang's forehead.

He glanced in the direction of the county government office, and saw that the owner of the house hadn't come yet, and became more and more anxious.

"Hug the tiger! Put down the knife for me!"

"Let him let my brother go!" Huohu shouted.

He doesn't look like a Han Chinese, and he doesn't speak Chinese very well, which can only be barely understood.

"Calm down! Motherfuckers, calm down!" Wu Ang turned to the archers who were holding their knives, and shouted, "Take the knives away!"

After yelling, he looked at Li Xia again, and said, "Li Xianwei, please let him go too. If you have something to say, everyone doesn't want to cause death."

Li Xia held Jiang Fan in his hand, and a dagger was also pressed against Jiang Fan's neck.

Things suddenly developed to such an extent that no one expected it.

Li Xia didn't expect the Sichuan and Shu men to be so fierce, perhaps because of the grievances accumulated over the years.

In the beginning, they just hit a one-eyed man who suddenly bumped into him. After that, more than ten people rushed up and were beaten up by him again.

These ten or so people were still measured, they didn't carry weapons, and they didn't strike hard.

But he was hurt by the beating, and someone got angry and ran to call for rescuers, but this time they were armed with swords and bows.

Li Xia knew that he couldn't beat them, so he took advantage of the chaos to hold down the broken-armed Jiang Fan.

"You guys still know that I'm a county lieutenant, can't you rebel?!"

"Don't dare." Wu Ang said hastily: "There is a misunderstanding on this matter. It should be that County Lieutenant Li didn't know the customs of our southern Sichuan, and had a conflict with Brother Bao. I will apologize to the county lieutenant."

Li Xia looked at the team leader named "Huuhu" again, and said, "It doesn't look like he's here to make amends."

"Let brother go!" Lou Hu shouted, "Otherwise I will chop you up regardless of which official you are!"

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"I'm afraid you're a hozen. If I kill the official, I'll go back to the old forest at worst!"

Jiang Fan was held down by Li Xia, but he shouted: "Huu Manzi, get out of here! You don't need to meddle in this matter, get out!"

Li Xia hit the dagger, making Jiang Fan shut up.

On the other side, Bao San stepped forward and hugged Huhu, the two of them struggled and murmured at the same time.

Only then did Wu Ang breathe a sigh of relief, and shouted: "All his mothers put away the weapons! Who dares to draw the sword to the county lieutenant?!"

He wiped the sweat from his brow, and said: "Li Xianwei, we have all taken away the knives now, have you let him go?"

Li Xia didn't let him go, and said, "How about today's matter?"

"People in our area are just so bad-tempered. Li Xianwei doesn't get along, and I have nothing to say, just accept the punishment."

"You're saying it's my fault, but I'm a senior official, there's nothing you can do?"

"Don't dare." Wu Ang said: "Brother Bao was blind in one eye, couldn't see the road clearly in the aisle, and bumped into County Lieutenant Li. I will wait for everyone to apologize to County Lieutenant Li."

"That's right, I'm blind in one eye, so I apologize to County Lieutenant Li!" Bao San shouted, his voice shaking the long street.

"Brother Bao was blind in one eye and hit Li Xianwei. I will wait for everyone to apologize to Li County Lieutenant!" The archers shouted.

The sound was chaotic at first, but gradually became orderly.

"I will apologize to Captain Li and ask Captain Li to let Brother Jiang go!"

"Brother Bao shouldn't have lost one eye and bumped into County Lieutenant Li!"

Many people in the vicinity had seen the fight here, and they had been hiding from a distance before, but now they all gathered around.

Pointing and pointing, what he said was nothing more than saying that the new official bullied others.

Even Han Qiaoer, who was hiding behind, could tell that these people seemed to be apologizing, but they obviously wanted to crowd out Li Xia together.

"..."

Wu Ang finally settled down.

It became.

The landlord's account was finally settled. Anyone surnamed Li who has a little brain should know that Qingfu County does not accept this county lieutenant.

"Li Xianwei, the villains have all apologized, I wonder if you can let Brother Jiang go first?"

Wu Ang raised his hand, stopped the shouting of the archers, and said again: "Brother Jiang broke a hand, and he is not in good health. Li Xianwei wants to punish, but he can punish the villain..."

"You don't want me to be the county lieutenant?" Li Xia asked suddenly.

"Don't dare." Wu Ang said: "How dare little people..."

"Let's just say it." Li Xia said: "You want to drive me away, I understand, but do things more simply."

Wu Ang cupped his fists, but did not answer.

Li Xia said again: "You don't have to come to find fault every time, let's deal with it once and for all, how about it?"

"The villain can't understand what Captain Li is saying." Wu Ang said.

Li Xia said: "It's simple, let's make a bet, if I lose, I'll leave, and I shouldn't be the Qingfu county captain."

Wu Ang and Bao San looked at each other with joy in their eyes.

Luhu was still held in Bao San's arms, and said: "Brothers, I bet with him!"

"Don't talk." Bao San whispered.

Wu Ang clasped his fists and said: "Li Xianwei's words are serious, we are just a bunch of miscellaneous people, how dare..."

"They are all straightforward men, act more openly, and don't talk nonsense."

"Okay!" Wu Ang said, "I don't know how County Lieutenant Li wants to bet?"

"There are 44 of you here." Li Xia swept his eyes and said, "Come on, fight me one by one..."
