Chapter 51
Because the killer fed aconitum poison on the arrow, not only the militiaman who was shot in the right rib by the back arrow and the Daxing Tingting soldier who was hit by the arrow in the vest were not rescued, but the other low-ranking militiaman who was hit by the arrow in the thigh was almost sent away. Life.Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and there is no poison purification technology in this era. The amount of poison carried by the poisonous arrow is not very large. In addition, Xiang Kang spent a lot of money to hire a good doctor to rescue him. Pulling the militiaman named Liu Zhu back from the death line also somewhat restored some of Xiang Kang's prestige among the low-ranking militiamen-there are not many bosses in this era who value the lives of their soldiers as much as Xiang Kang.

On the other hand, as Xiang Kang guessed, after he failed to trap and kill himself, the group of mysterious Ling County bandits really left the mountain climbing area quickly and fled to the east of Ling County, which is sparsely populated in this era. It was an unsolved case, and the bandits were charged with all the crimes, but Xiang Kang, Feng Zhong and others didn't even know how many of them there were and who the boss was, so it would be extremely difficult to continue to investigate.

Fortunately, Feng Zhong managed to retrieve the dead body of a bandit, and at the same time, the militia under Xiang Kang's command actually helped the officials of the lower minister to drive out the bandits, and he had an explanation to the officials and the people of the lower minister, so Even though he felt ashamed, Xiang Kang still had the cheek to claim that he had successfully defended the safety of the lives and property of the people in Daxingting, and called on the wealthy landlords of the pavilions in Xiaxiangdong Township to continue to contribute money and food to help him support the establishment of the Xiaxiang who did not have much time. militia.

Two days later, after confirming that the mysterious bandit had escaped and could not be pursued further, Xiang Kang and Feng Zhong led the lower minister's militia team and the Xiang family's children back to Shiling Pavilion dejectedly. At the first time, I took the body and pension of the sacrificed militiaman to his home to condolences, and witnessed a scene of human tragedy where the white-haired man cried to send the black-haired man away. I felt extremely uncomfortable, but I was helpless.

Then, Feng Zhong kindly proposed to invite Xiang Kang to eat and drink at his home, but Xiang Kang, who felt uncomfortable, was not in the mood, so he made an excuse, and then went straight back to his dilapidated courtyard.However, when Xiang Kang was surprised and moved, his fiancée Yu Miaoge had been guarding the gate of the small courtyard waiting for him to come back, and asked with concern as soon as they met: "Are you okay? I heard that you are going to Daxing this time." Ting had a fight with the bandits, and someone died, so you were not injured, right?"

"It's okay, I'm not hurt." Xiang Kang forced a smile on his face, quickly opened the courtyard door with the key, and greeted Yu Miaoge, who had been waiting for him for a long time, to come in and take a seat. chance to get along.

After entering the room, Yu Miaoge asked Xiang Kang about the details of the matter, but Xiang Kang was afraid that Yu Miaoge would be worried, so he deliberately concealed that this group of bandits was actually targeting his own situation, and gave a vague introduction to the matter.But even so, Yu Miaoge was still apprehensive. As soon as Xiang Kang finished speaking, he said: "In the future, you must be careful. When you encounter danger, don't rush to the front like last time. You must learn to take care of yourself."

"Of course." Xiang Kang forced a smile, and said casually, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. We're going to get married soon, and I'm definitely reluctant to die."

A blush immediately appeared on Yu Miaoge's fair and tender cheeks, he lowered his head and spat: "You, people care about you, and you still talk naughty things."

"It's not naughty words, it's from the heart."

Xiang Kang's answer made Yu Miaoge even more shy, fearing that Xiang Kang would continue to tease him, Yu Miaoge could only quickly change the subject and said, "I originally asked my little sister to come, but she refused, but I can see Come out, in fact, she is also concerned about you, but she is shy, so she dare not come."

"I'm afraid it's not just as simple as being shy." Xiang Kang muttered shamelessly in his heart, but said on his mouth: "Take a message for me for her, just say that I have nothing to do, thank her for caring about me."

Yu Miaoge hummed and agreed, blushing and said nothing more, Xiang Kang was moved by her shyness, and simply left the table and sat next to her, reaching out his hand to embrace her, Yu Miaoge's whole body shook, subconsciously He wanted to resist, but unfortunately Xiang Kang moved too fast, and before Yu Miaoge could struggle, he had already grabbed her slender waist, Yu Miaoge was ashamed, and struggled quickly: "No, I can't do it now, we'll talk about it later. "

"It's only been two months, what are you afraid of?" Xiang Kang said with a smile, "Come on, let me take a closer look at how beautiful my lady is."

Yu Miaoge objected in a low voice and continued to resist, but Xiang Kang hugged him even tighter, but at this moment, Xiang It's voice suddenly came from outside the door, calling for Xiang Kang to go to his second aunt's house for dinner, Yu Miaoge Received an amnesty, and quickly pushed Xiang Kang away, got up and hid aside.Xiang Kang, on the other hand, quietly cursed his nephew who would pick a time, while agreeing loudly helplessly, and at the same time invited Yu Miaoge to have dinner with him, but Yu Miaoge blushed and shook his head to refuse, and said: "There is one more thing, Today, my servant in Yanjiting brought news that he saw the servants of Shan Youwei's family living in Yanjiting's guest house, and he didn't know what to do. I, Aunt, are worried about this, so you have to be careful. "

"The servants of Shan Youwei's family lived in Yanjiting's guest house?" Xiang Kang rolled his eyes, and he was immediately alert, and said secretly: "It's only more than an hour away from Shiling Pavilion. It seems that I am Be careful, especially find a way to keep an eye on that kid."

After exhorting Xiang Kang, Yu Miaoge hurriedly left with Xiang Ta's malicious smile, and Xiang Kang planned to follow Xiang Ta to the second aunt's house and have dinner with Xiang's children.In the end, when there was no competent man to monitor someone closely, Xiang Kang had an idea, and he really thought of a way to let the Xiang family's children monitor each other. He deliberately put Shan Youwei's people into Yanjiting's guest house during meals. I told the members of the Xiang family all about it, and then told them: "Brothers and brothers, Yan Jiting is too close to here, don't walk around alone these few days, you must watch each other wherever you go, and beware of Shan Youwei. Some people plotted against you with poisoned arrows. Also, if anything happens, please tell me right away.”

The members of the Xiang family agreed carelessly, and Xiang You also nodded in a dignified manner, but Xiang Kang could see that there was still an undisguised panic in his expression, obviously worried about something.At the same time, Xiang Kang thought in his heart: "Doing this will only make it more difficult for this kid to contact that side quietly, but there is only a thousand days to be a thief, not a thousand days to guard against a thief. After a long time, this kid may still have a relationship with that boy." I quietly contacted him and did some deeds that I couldn't guard against. I still have to find a way to quickly get the ironclad evidence of this kid's secret collusion with the other side, what method should I use?"

Playing tricks has always been Xiang Kang's strength, and this time is no exception. Before the meal is finished, Xiang Kang already has a general idea. It is expected that under the mutual surveillance of his own children, someone will never dare to go rashly. Contact with Shan Youwei, you will definitely feel very nervous and worried, and try your best to find opportunities to contact with there.And then, the bold idea of ​​creating this opportunity for someone naturally jumped into Xiang Kang's mind...

The next morning, after returning to the blacksmith shop to preside over the production, Xiang Kang casually found an excuse and asked someone to call Wei Shan, Feng Zhongmen guest who had some fate with him, to the blacksmith shop. Had a conversation with Wei Shan.And when it was time for dinner in the evening, Xiang Kang deliberately counted his belongings in front of his brothers, and soon found that he had lost a piece of gold, and then naturally remembered Wei Shan, who had a criminal record for petty theft today When he went to the blacksmith's shop, he once got close to the clothes that he put aside when he was blacksmithing. He suspected that Wei Shan had done it, and asked his brother to follow him to the pavilion to settle accounts with Wei Shan.

He led the disciples of the Xiang family to the pavilion and found Feng Zhong who was still serving as the head of the Shiling Pavilion. Xiang Kang gave an overview of the situation, but Feng Zhong shook his head and said confidently: " Brother, you must have misunderstood. I know that Wei Shan has done petty theft before, but he has really changed. I can assure you of this. If you don’t believe me, I will call him face to face right now. Let me ask you."

The cruel facts soon hurt Feng Zhong's poor face. After being called in front of Xiang Kang, Feng Zhong had just asked a few questions, and Wei Shan knelt down on Feng Zhong's knees with a plop, and said with a mournful face: "Brother, is it true?" I'm confused, I don't have enough money to marry a wife to buy a house, and I think Mr. Xiang must not remember so much money, so I committed an old problem and couldn't help but secretly took a piece of gold from him. I deserve to die, I deserve to be beaten, I'm not human , I am a beast!"

Slapping his thin face desperately, Wei Shan also took the initiative to take out the gold he stole from Xiang Kang. Feng Zhong was furious when he saw it, of course he kicked Wei Shan to the ground, and roared: "You bastard! Brother Xiang and I are sorry for you, the ten gold we promised you last time, was one gold missing from you, or was you missing one coin? How dare you steal brother Xiang’s money and embarrass me? You say it yourself , how should I deal with you?"

"Damn me, I really deserve to die!" Wei Shan cried, and hurriedly hugged Xiang Kang's legs, pleading with snot and tears: "Master Xiang, I'm sorry, I'm wrong, I should hit you! I was confused for a while, please, young master, for the sake of my life and death for you last time, please forgive me this time, please forgive me this time."

Xiang Kang kept silent with a stern face, with a heartless and vicious look on his face, and said: "Last time you were meritorious, but I gave it to you, and I didn't lose any money from you. Brother Feng, according to the laws of Daqin, stealing a gold should be How to punish?"

"Brother, isn't it...?" Feng Zhong was hesitant to speak, and said with some embarrassment: "According to the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty, stealing a piece of gold is at least punished as a Chengdan, and if you are unlucky, you may be sent to Mount Li Be a prisoner. Although this Wei Shan deserves to be beaten, he has already pleaded guilty and returned the gold that he stole from you, for the sake of his great efforts to us before, don’t you think…?”

"I'm not going to Lishan Mountain!" Wei Shan shook his head quickly, and begged Xiang Kang's leg again: "Master Xiang, please, please, please let me go this time, please let me go this time, In the future, I will be a cow and a horse, a pig and a dog, and I will definitely repay you."

With a very cruel snort, Xiang Kang said to Feng Zhong: "Brother Feng, for your sake, this matter can be regarded as his self-report (surrender), so that he doesn't have to go to Lishan to be a prisoner." , but he has to be a Chengdan for a few months. Otherwise, he won't have a long memory!"

"Master Xiang, you are merciful!" Wei Shan wailed in despair, and said, "Chengdan's work is so heavy, how can I do it? Also, the corvee is heavy now, and I may become a Chengdan at any time." Sent to the frontier to build the Great Wall!"

"Then are you willing to go to Lishan to be a prisoner for the rest of your life, or go to the frontier to build the Great Wall for a few months?" Xiang Kang asked coldly.

"me……."

Wei Shan couldn't answer anymore, Feng Zhong over there couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly said: "Brother Xiang, don't do this, do me a favor and forgive him. This little Zhuzi didn't lie to you. In order to complete the errand assigned by the county , He sent Chengdan to the frontier to repair the Great Wall at every turn, he can't bear such a crime. I'll ask him to kowtow to you, so please forgive him this time."

Speaking, Feng Zhong really forced Wei Shan to kowtow to Xiang Kang to make amends, but Xiang Kang couldn't hinder Feng Zhong's affection, so he could only snort again, and said to Wei Shan: "I slap myself ten times. Forget about it, and next time, it will be useless even if Brother Feng pleads with you!"

Unable to withstand Xiang Kang's lust, Wei Shan could only raise his hand, and slapped himself ten times until his cheeks became red and swollen, then kowtowed to Xiang Kang again and again, begging Xiang Kang to let go But Xiang Kang didn't even bother to look at him, thanked Feng Zhong, took the gold that Wei Shan gave back to him, and walked away, leaving Feng Zhong in the room to continue to embarrass his old face Wei Shan punched and kicked and scolded angrily.

This was a good scene. Of course, Xiang You, who came here with the Xiang family's children to ask the teacher, saw it clearly, and also sneered at Xiang Kang's viciousness, but Xiang You quickly dismissed this scene. The incident was forgotten, because Xiang You no longer had time to care about such trivial matters - the slips written by himself were held in the hands of Dan Youwei as ironclad evidence, and they were probably sent to contact him People live in Yanji Pavilion not far from Shiling Pavilion, and they may appear in front of me at any time, but the Xiang family brothers are like a group of followers, following by my side at any time. What would happen to me if I happened to be spotted by my brothers?
"I can only pray for God's blessing. Bless the people on Shan Youwei's side who are still very meticulous in their work. They can find out that I have been being watched by others and dare not take the risk of contacting me. Just wait a few more days, wait a few more days, When my brothers forget what Xiang Kang said, I can act alone."

Praying for God's blessing in my heart, I wandered around with the Xiang family's children for two days in fear. On the morning of the third day after the gold theft incident, when Xiang You was wandering around in the pavilion with the Xiang family's children again , Wei Shan, who was severely punished by Xiang Kang two days ago, suddenly reappeared in front of the Xiang family's children, and walked directly in front of Xiang You, who had inadvertently opened a little distance from the Xiang family's children, nodded and bowed Said: "Mr. Xiang, can you take a step to speak? I have something small, and I want to ask you to help me."

"What's the matter?" Xiang You, who always looked down on ordinary people like Wei Shan, asked proudly.

Wei Shan didn't answer, but just showed his left hand to Xiang You, and on the palm of his left hand was clearly written a word - Dan!

 This chapter was written while waiting for the child's infusion, so the number of words is a little less, please understand.
