Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 4 Angry palms the villain
Jia Ying frowned, and gave Xi'er a look.

Xi'er flipped over the wall with a light body, and she could clearly see the situation outside in the blink of an eye.

Looking at Jia Ying, he said, "Second Lord, there are officers and soldiers outside!"

Hearing this, Jia Ying couldn't help turning her eyes to the uninvited guest kneeling on the ground, then looked at the coffin that had been pried open, connected with the series of actions of the Yueyang government during the day, and instantly understood.

The two people who co-authored him used Jia as a wall ladder.

Secretly said: "Unlucky!"

Jia Ying looked at the stable again, Xi'er immediately understood, and lifted Qi Sixian out of the stable.

Qi Sixian had just been hit by Jia Ying, and felt his internal organs twitch, and his head and eyes dimmed for a while. He just recovered and noticed the situation outside.

I couldn't help lamenting that she and Tiekou couldn't escape in the end.

"Wow!" Under the depression of heart, but another mouthful of blood spit out.

When she was brought in front of Jia Ying, Xu Shi was unwilling to fall into the hands of thieves and wanted to make a final fight, but suddenly she had a plan in mind, enduring the pain, she folded her arms and secretly reached into her arms.

Xi'er naturally noticed her small movements, but she just sneered in her heart, not afraid that she would cause any disturbances, and just threw people at Jia Ying's feet.

But Jia Ying was thinking about how to deal with the two people in front of him.

Prying someone's coffin is no different from digging someone's grave. Even if he beats them to death immediately and apologizes before the spirit of his parents, he can't be said to be at fault when he gets to the government. .

But after thinking about it, the Huguang Yamen and the Yueyang Zhizhou Yamen were able to go to war for the mere two white bandits. I am afraid that these two people still have a lot to do with them. If there are some secrets that he does not know, then Once it comes, it will inevitably cause trouble for yourself.

"If we simply hand over the two of them to the government, we won't be afraid that they will survive!" Jia Ying thought to himself.

Just as he was about to explain, Qi Sixian, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, suddenly took out a package from his arms and handed it over.

Jia Ying subconsciously scanned the past, there were two thick books like ledgers, and there was another thing.
When Jia Ying saw her, her heart froze, her eyes turned away, and she waved her sleeve to knock aside the package that Qi Sixian handed over.

No more hesitation at the moment: "Xi'er, take these two to the government!"

Before Xi'er could make a move, Qi Sixian quickly said in a crisp and clear voice:
"These are the criminal evidences of Huguang officials' corruption and breaking the law. Among them are Zhong Shanlang, the procurator of Huguang, and Bao Siyu, the magistrate of Yuezhou. They disregarded human life and framed Zhongliang. Anyone who has seen these criminal evidences will be silenced by the two of them."

Before she could finish speaking, Jia Ying yelled, "What a thief, An dares to lie, and Xi'er won't even get a diplomat!"

At this moment, I could vaguely hear the voice of the manager from the front yard of the inn greeting the officials.

Xi'er didn't stop to strike, mentioned Qi Sixian and went to the front yard, Zhou Siwu on the other side did the same.

Qi Sixian was even more desperate. He was held in Xi'er's hand and said sadly: "I am the daughter of Qi Benzhong, the former governor of Huguang. My family, since you are a scholar, you should know that one of the items in the package is an official memorial, and if you hand us over, don't you worry about being held accountable by the court afterwards?"

On the other side, the iron button held by Zhou Siwu turned his head to look at Qi Sixian in astonishment, and exclaimed: "Brother Qi, you"

Jia Ying was upset, stepped forward a few steps and slapped Tiekou, and said angrily: "Brother Qi, don't you see that she is a woman?"

For a moment, Tie Kou didn't know whether it was Jia Ying who beat him or whether he was shocked by "Brother Qi", he just felt dizzy for a while.

Jia Ying lamented helplessly, and said: "Xi'er, take the two of you into custody, don't let anyone find out, Uncle Wu, come with me to meet the people in the Yuezhou Yamen and the Chancha Yamen!"

Zhou Siwu was still worried, he hesitated and said, "Second Master."

Jia Ying looked resolute, waved his hands and said: "Don't say too much, let's deal with the matter before us first!"

But in his heart there is a bitterness to say: "Curiosity really killed Jia Erye. He must have been constantly disturbed by it. He killed the two of them earlier, but there is no such trouble."

But he said that Xi'er hid Tie and Qi according to Jia Ying's instructions, but she couldn't feel relieved, so she stayed in the backyard, firstly to take care of the two, and secondly, in case there was any disagreement , it is good to have a countermeasure.

However, Tie Kou and Qi Sixian didn't resist anymore. Right now, the government is the biggest threat to them. Compared with them, it is much safer to fall into the hands of Jia Ying's master and servant. Besides, this matter is theirs. There are mistakes first.

Furthermore, Tie Kou is still immersed in the huge news that "Brother Qi" is a daughter and the daughter of Qi Benzhong, and has not recovered.

As for Qi Sixian, everything she did just now was just an instinctive act of dying, but she never expected that it would really work. Although Qi Sixian still didn't have much hope for the current situation, everything she experienced tonight was enough to make her feel better. She has been digesting for a long time.

On the other side, Jia Ying brought the old servants to the main hall of the inn. The yamen servants had already started to check the room upstairs and downstairs, but they happened to meet Zhao Xingliang, the chief arrester of Yuezhou, holding a waist knife, and was welcomed into the inn by the shopkeeper almost flatteringly. middle.

Looking at each other, Zhao Xingliang asked the shopkeeper beside him: "Has anyone entered the store recently?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's eyes subconsciously turned to Jia Ying's master and servant.

Zhao Xingliang looked at another yamen servant beside him, and the yamen servant nodded.

Zhao Xingliang chuckled, walked towards Jia Ying and the two, and asked aloud: "You two are strangers, but are you a visitor from a foreign country?"

Jia Ying showed a smile on his face, clasped his fists and said: "Your Excellency, Jia Ying, a late-born Yunnan scholar, went to Beijing to catch the exam. He passed through Yueyang today, and just stayed at this inn!"

That Zhao Xingliang obviously didn't know Jia Ying's identity, his face was stunned, he turned his head and glanced at his servants, then clasped his fists with a happy face and said: "I don't know that my son is a master of juren, I, the chief executive of Yuezhou, arrested Zhao Xingliang, it was so abrupt, I still hope Forgive me, son."

In the current season, there are many people who become officials with fame and fame. Of course, their grades are not too high, and most of them are only low-ranking officials of the eighth or ninth grade. much.

Therefore, after learning of Jia Ying's Juren status, Zhao Xingliang had no choice but to lower his figure.

Of course, if it is the general arrester of a province, it is a different matter. As the saying goes, the third-rank official in front of the prime minister, who can become the chief arrester of a province, is mostly the cronies of the chief envoy. Incomparable.

However, Zhao Xingliang's status is not bad, Yuezhou belongs to Zhili Prefecture, and its rank is the same as that of the government, and the magistrate of Yuezhou is a court official of the fourth rank. Just maintain a certain amount of respect.

Jia Ying also knew the key points, so of course he didn't care about these things, and said immediately: "Where is it! Zhao Butou is responsible for the security of a state, and it is just an ordinary inquiry. How can Jia be an ignorant person. "

He changed his voice and said again: "I just don't know that Zhao Tutou is fighting in the middle of the night, but what kind of urgent business is he doing? Oh, of course, if the matter involves confidentiality, we can only treat Jia as a talker."

Zhao Xingliang laughed and said: "The tolerance is true, and the urgency is true, but it's not a secret. It's just that a few thieves escaped from our government prison recently, and the governor ordered Zhao to arrest them as soon as possible."

Jia Ying's face was stunned: "So that's the case. When I entered the city today, Jia also heard some rumors, but..."

Jia Ying looked around the inside and outside of the inn for a week: "What's wrong with this inn? Could it be?"

Zhao Xingliang waved his hand and said: "It's just because one of the yamen servants reported today that there are strangers haunting the ferry, and inquired about the boat leaving Yueyang. Young Master also knows that now that the land road in Yueyang City has been closed, there is no guarantee that the thief will not plan to use the waterway. People stayed in Tonglai Inn, that's why Zhao brought people here, I didn't expect that this stranger is the young master and his party, and he has nothing to do with the thieves, but it's Zhao who disturbed the young master's rest late at night, very disturbed."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Xingliang summoned one of his servants and scolded him a few words.

I just heard the yamen servant say: "My lord, but my subordinates are confused. They don't know how to judge the master's golden face, and the younger ones will plead guilty to the master."

After saying that, he made a bow.

Just as Jia Ying was about to send him away, the yamen servant said again:

"However, my lord, the strangers who appeared at the ferry today are not only Mr. Jia and his party, but another group of strangers also came to the Tonglai Inn. At that time, they were behind Mr. Jia and his party. The subordinates could clearly see that one of them was a noodle boy. "

After all, the yamen servant secretly took a look at Jia Ying who was standing aside, but Jia Ying's face was calm, so he could see something.

In fact, Jia Ying was already unhappy, and secretly said angrily, "Why is this yamen servant so troublesome!"

"It was only later that the little one was lost."

After Zhao Xingliang listened, he looked over with questioning eyes.

Jia Ying's face was normal, she shook her head and said, "I've never seen this person before."

Zhao Xingliang looked at his servants again, was silent for a while, and said: "Since there is another group of strangers, let's call them to find out."

Then he said to Jia Ying: "My lord, you don't have to worry too much. I think it happened that we met together, but this matter has nothing to do with you."

At this moment, other yamen servants have searched all the guest rooms in the front yard, and they all came to report that there is nothing unusual.

Zhao Xingliang turned to the shopkeeper again and said, "Shopkeeper, do you have another place to go in this inn?"

The innkeeper didn't dare to hide the truth, and of course he couldn't. Zhao Xingliang's question was just because of Jia Ying's presence, so he shouldn't be too presumptuous.

Immediately replied: "If you go back to the master, there is still a backyard."

"Lead the way ahead!"

A group of yamen servants headed for the backyard in a mighty manner.

Jia Ying and the old servant looked at each other and followed silently.

In the backyard, Xi'er was leaning on the carriage, and two carriages were parked at a corner by the wall, behind which was a huge haystack, which happened to be blocked by the carriages.

Seeing someone coming in, Xi'er didn't panic and stood up as if nothing had happened.

Jia Ying introduced to Zhao Xingliang: "This is my bookboy."

Zhao Xingliang nodded slightly, and looked elsewhere. A group of yamen servants were even better at raiding houses. Every corner, including the stables, was turned upside down, but nothing was found.

Zhao Xingliang's face was a little ugly, and he glared at his servant again.

The yamen servant complained in his heart, and was afraid of being blamed by his superiors when he turned around. His eyes rolled sharply, and he was also dazed. He stared at the two carriages, especially the two coffins on the carriage. No matter how they looked, they seemed to be hiding thieves!
Pointing to the carriage with the coffin, he said to a group of yamen servants: "Those two carriages have not been inspected yet."

As soon as the yamen servant finished speaking, Zhou Siwu on the other side kicked the yamen servant to the ground, stepped forward, grabbed the yamen servant by his collar and slapped the servant a few times.

Seeing this, the general yamen servants pulled out their waist knives one after another, aiming at Jia Ying's master and servant.

Zhao Xingliang was even more gloomy, looking at Jia Ying with a gloomy gaze.

Jia Ying remained expressionless and didn't say a word.

Seeing that Zhou Siwu's slaps were still going on, Zhao Xingliang shouted angrily: "Enough!"

Pointing at the miserable yamen servant, he said to Jia Ying, who was silent beside him: "Young Master Jia, your servant beat the arrester in public, even if you are the master of Juren, if you can't explain to Mr. "

Who is Zhou Siwu, if a small policeman falls into his hands, how can he have a good one.

It was only a moment, and the policeman's face was like a pig's head, his mouth was bleeding, and he lost countless teeth.

Jia Ying turned a deaf ear to Zhao Xingliang's dissatisfaction.

The old servant at the side took out a waist card from his arms and threw it towards Zhao Xingliang.

And with a fierce face, he said: "What do you want to explain? My official Yunnan Weizheng has five ranks of thousands of households. Are you qualified enough to give you an explanation!"

Pointing to the two coffins on the carriage, he said: "Under the coffin lids lie my master, the grandson of Ning Guogong (Jia Yan), the nephew and nephew of the first-class Shenwei General of Ningguo Mansion (Jia Daihua), who is the fourth rank of Yunnan Province. Commander Wei, Jia Xiao, and my wife."

"What do you want to explain!"
