Chapter 59

It was cold and there were few pedestrians.On the official road outside the capital, there is such a team walking: the front, back, left, and right are sturdy cavalry on tall horses, with bright armor; in the middle are several prisoners, all of whom are weak and weak, They were all handcuffed and handcuffed.

A dilapidated bullock cart approached.The driver was a poor middle-aged man. Seeing this, he hurriedly drove the ox cart to the side of the road and gave way to him with a wink.Even so, the middle-aged man was whipped across the head and face, "You have no eyes!" A young cavalryman cursed.In the midst of this winter, it's unlucky to be sent on such an errand due to bad luck, and to meet this broken ox cart!

"It must be a heinous person." The middle-aged man nodded and bowed to the officers and soldiers with smiling faces, thinking in his heart.The one I passed by was just whipped, and it was already painful.The person who was escorted in the middle was whipped a lot.Although he is a heinous person, he is pitiful, really pitiful.The middle-aged man looked at the prisoners who were surrounded and driven by the cavalry, and he was very sympathetic.

"It ended with them?" Liu Fengyi and Li Fengshou, the two leading cavalrymen, glanced at each other, tacit understanding.When they took the job, they also half-truthfully complained to Shangfeng, "In this weather, maybe brothers can freeze to death on the road." Shangfeng laughed, "If you want to freeze to death, you must freeze those gangs to death first." Poor civil servants!" If they froze to death, wouldn't you return to Beijing to answer your orders?

"It's only seven or eight miles out of the city, it's too close. We'll make a decision after we have a good rest at Baihuapo, which is ten miles away." The two of them leaned closer and whispered a few words, making up their minds.There is a small inn in Baihuapo, just right for you to rest, enjoy the fire, and drink a cup of hot tea...

The crisp sound of horseshoes came, and the two listened intently.Riding alone?This horse is coming so fast!A pure black horse galloped towards it, and immediately sat an officer in armor and armor, with a flying leopard embroidered on his red official uniform, sharp and keen as if he was about to catch prey.

This officer is Yue Ting.He looked at the arrogant and domineering Jin Yiwei immediately, and the panic-stricken civil servants on the ground, his anger rose.Fortunately, I didn't worry about chasing over to take a look, otherwise, these civil servants would die if they really left Beijing!Ma Heng clearly promised to take care of Mr. An, but he didn't keep his word!How dare you talk casually at me?good very good.

Liu Fengyi bowed his hands politely, "Commander Yue." He was a small leader in Jinyiwei, and he recognized that this was the commander of the Beijing camp, Yue Ting, who was born in Jingninghou's residence and was the second son of Yue Pei, the governor of the left army.Jin Yiwei usually wouldn't easily provoke the children of the Duke's House in the capital.They are not ordinary people, nor are they powerless civil servants who can be bullied by Jin Yiwei.

The young cavalryman who just beat the middle-aged man driving the car had a very bad temper. At this time, he whipped the whip at the two prisoners lying on the ground, and shouted, "Hugh lying on the ground and pretending to be dead! Hurry up and get up!" , then stop pretending to be dead.

The whip reached mid-air, but it couldn't fall: Yue Ting swung out the whip and entangled his whip, making him unable to move.The young cavalry blushed, neither angry nor not angry.Yue Ting smiled and said, "Your Excellency has such a temper." These civil servants are all middle-aged, and even two of them are almost old people. This young Jin Yiwei is so ruthless.

Liu Fengyi made a quick calculation in his mind.Jingning Hou's Mansion has always had a good reputation in the capital, and Yue Ting has a good reputation as well. It seems that he is indeed kind-hearted and soft-hearted, and he doesn't want to see people suffer.Yue Ting can't go with us, can he?Why offend him for no reason, there is still a long way to go.

Liu Fengyi first laughed and praised Yue Ting, "Commander Yue's skill is so handsome!" Then he pointed at the young cavalryman and yelled, "Irregular things! Why don't you apologize to Commander Yue?" That young cavalryman dared not Getting angry at passers-by, dare to get angry at prisoners, but he has no temper at all when facing his superiors, and immediately apologized with a flattering face, "Commander Yue, I know I was wrong."

"Since you know you've made a mistake, please correct it." Yue Ting looked at the dilapidated ox cart not far away, and pointed it to Liu Fengyi, "How about letting them ride in this ox cart? Seeing that they can't move anymore. "Liu Fengyi, a good man, did his best to the end, and agreed with a big smile, "Commander Yue is really a kind-hearted man."

The middle-aged man driving the car was still staring blankly not far away. He was so pitiful, even more pitiful than me.I only received one whip, and they received many whips...Suddenly I saw a cavalry galloping over. The middle-aged man was so frightened that he turned around and drove away, "Oh, man! Stop!" People have caught up.

"You! Drive over there and transport these prisoners to Baihuapo!" the cavalry Da Lala ordered.The middle-aged man didn't dare to say anything, and drove over with a disheveled face, groaning in his heart, "What do you say? He obviously couldn't stay at home and wanted to go to the city to sell some dry firewood, but he was arrested by an official!" It's over.

Yue Ting casually threw a piece of silver to the middle-aged man, "Thank you for your hard work, I should treat you to tea." The middle-aged man was ecstatic, silver?silver!He opened his mouth and bit it, is it really money?I can't believe how lucky I am!Today I really went out and met a nobleman, he saluted Yue Ting again and again, thanking him again and again.

The six civil servants are all thin and weak people, and the six of them ride half of the ox cart, which is surprisingly generous.In the bullock cart, you lean on me, and I lean on you, so that you can breathe temporarily. "Sweeping the floor gracefully! Sweeping the floor gracefully!" Wei Nianzhong muttered to himself, going to the Northwest Station alive like this would be better than hitting him head-on to death.

Two officials next to him agreed, "It's better to die!" It's really polite.Among the six people, five felt that "it would be better to die", and only An Zan didn't say a word.

"Lord An, are you..." a gray-bearded official beside An Zan asked.Why does Mr. An seem to be very calm, not sad or angry at all?An Heng replied gently, "I promised my family that no matter what, I must live." His wife and children are still there, and Ru Shao is only four years old. As a husband and father, how can he say death so easily.

The car fell silent.They are all family members, and when they think of their white hair, their wives and children, they feel sad.I don't know if I will be able to see my relatives in this life, which is really sad.

"Since Mr. An loves his family so much, he shouldn't have offended His Majesty back then." Wei Nianzhong said with a wry smile.Are there any officials who are wise and safe?Yes, there are many.But in this bullock cart, all of you who are dressed in worn-out clothes and are in a state of embarrassment don't know how to be wise and protect themselves, and are quite loyal and brave.

An Zan said sternly, "It's a matter of being loyal to the emperor. Since I, An Zan, have received this salary, I should do my duty!" What does the censor do?Overseeing the fault of hundreds of officials.The mine supervisor and tax envoy have illegal things and things that disturb the people. Can the censor ignore them and let them harm the people?
The six people were all thinking about this, and each sighed, "Master An's words are very true, exactly." Listen to fate."

Although the ox cart is slow, it is much faster than walking.Another commander of the Beijing camp followed beside him without saying a word, so Jin Yiwei didn't shout or humiliate everyone along the way, and the group went to Baihuapo smoothly.

"I'm going to rest in this inn for one night, how about Commander Yue?" When he arrived at Baihua Inn, Liu Fengyi reined in the horse's head and asked politely.This Yue Ting, he wouldn't really follow him into the inn, would he?This inn is very simple, how can a young man like him live there.Even if you fight against injustice, it's time to fight to the end.

Yue Ting hesitated a little.Looking back, he saw An Zan who had just stepped off the bullock cart, and his steps were very staggering. In an instant, Yue Ting made a decision, "What a coincidence, I also want to rest here for a night." His adoptive father died at the hands of Jin Yiwei.What should I do?It was very difficult on the road.After arriving at the Northwest Station, nothing will happen. Even if it is a bit colder, you can get through the day.

Liu Fengyi was a little startled, "Please go ahead, please go ahead." It's not far from the capital, so it won't take much for you to go back by yourself on horseback?If you are willing to spend the night in this small inn, it's up to you to see if your pampered son can bear this hardship.In this small inn, there are no fancy clothes and delicacies, and there are no maids to serve.

The owner of the inn rushed out to greet everyone, happily welcoming everyone in. Originally, there were few people in the winter, but today's business is booming!Only one distinguished guest brought a young lady and four servants, booked three private rooms, and gave a big reward, no, there was another big group.

"These six people should be accommodated in a Datong bunk!" Liu Fengyi ordered, "The rest should be in private rooms, a total of eighteen rooms." Always keep two guards at night, and the remaining eighteen people should stay in private rooms. Sleep as you sleep.These civil servants are all courageous, and two people are enough to guard them.

"Also, I want a good private room for this lord." After Liu Fengyi gave his orders, he thought it was wrong, there was Yue Ting beside him, so he had to save a room for someone.

The innkeeper was happy, "Okay, gentlemen, please come with me." It's done, it's full.Our store is full today!Although it is the cold winter season, the innkeeper's face is full of spring breeze, "Masters, please come inside! The fire is burning vigorously, just waiting for you."

In a clean and warm guest room in Baihua Inn, there is a young girl sitting upright. This girl has snow-white skin, big black eyes, and is very beautiful.

A black figure flashed in silently, "Don't be afraid, it's me." The girl Huo stood up and asked, "What's the matter?" These damn Jinyiwei, devilish Jinyiwei, who knew they would treat An Zan? Do something.

"I followed quietly all the way, it's okay, don't worry." A handsome young man came in and said comfortingly.Although he suffered some torture, fortunately there was no danger of his life.

The girl bit her lip and said in a low voice, "Big Beard, let's do it tonight." We can't wait any longer, the night is full of dreams.I can't let my father suffer in the hands of Jin Yiwei.

The bearded man nodded, "Yes, let's do it tonight." Although he agreed, he frowned, and Yue Ting followed, which was really bad.He has been serious since he was a child, if he prevents himself from saving others, what should he do?It will take a lot of effort to win him.If you only rely on the ten masters left behind by Shen Mai to deal with the twenty Jinyiwei, you always feel that it is not safe.

When the bearded man was hesitating, there was another noise outside the inn, "Boss, I want ten good rooms!" The boss's heart trembled, ten?Not even one!Business is coming, but the rooms are full!It's really not fair.

When the boss greeted him in the hall, he couldn't say no if he refused: there were no. .In the middle is a young man in brocade clothes and luxurious clothes, with a noble appearance, standing there like Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, which makes people dare not look up.

"All, all are full." The innkeeper, who was originally quite articulate and tactful, said tremblingly.
