Records of the Lost Cases of Helaitang in the Ming Dynasty

"I will not retaliate with kindness, nor will I retaliate with hatred. If the two of them violated the hospital rules, they should be dealt with according to the hospital rules." Wang Heng said calmly.

Mr. Xu reported to Yuan Shan: "For stealing, the first offender will be punished by working in a nursery for one month, and the second offender will be expelled."

Yuan Shanchang nodded and said: "Assistant Xu, go and draw up a punishment notice."

After saying that, he waved everyone to go out, and the steward of Shen Xiaolian's family and the young Jianghu man also took their leave.

Wang Heng felt very uncomfortable when he encountered such an inexplicable thing. He glanced at Master Chu with his peripheral vision. At this time, Master Chu lowered his head and was submissive, which was very different from usual.

There seemed to be traces of Master Pu's jealousy of him. As for Master Chu, he had a generous heart and generous hands. He didn't look like such a small-minded person.

Young Master Chu and Third Young Master Pu lowered their heads and took small steps weakly. They felt that they could not compete with Wang Heng now, so they fell a few steps behind and let Wang Heng walk away first.Mr. Xu is about to write a notice of punishment and paste it on the screen wall of the academy. They will be humiliated and have to work with the servants for a month. What should they do?

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the academy officially opened.

Wang Hengben waited until school started to start, and had a heart-to-heart talk with Mr. Chu about what Mr. Chu's purpose was in stealing the invitation to the Plum Blossom Club.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Chu had lost face and refused to go to the academy, claiming he was ill.

A few days later, word spread in the city that Qu Tongpan's niece Qu San had chosen a good son-in-law, and she had chosen Li Xugu, a student member of Wuxian County.

"Li Xugu? This name sounds familiar." Wang Heng was surprised: "Could it be Brother Yuntai's close friend Li Xiucai?"

"That's Li Xiucai from Mingyuewan Village." Xiaocai said: "This Li Xiucai wrote a plum blossom poem at the Plum Blossom Festival a few days ago, which was very popular with Shen Xiaolian and his wife. The wonderful thing is that this poem has a hidden meaning. Miss Qu San's maiden name was indeed fate. Mrs. Shen called Li Xiucai into the inner hall, assessed his knowledge, and then asked about his family background and county officials. Coincidentally, Li Xiucai, like Miss Qu San, had a registered residence in Dongting Xishan. , both were originally from Wucheng County. Mrs. Shen was extremely satisfied and thought that the Qu family was more willing to marry the township party, so she asked Miss Qu San to pretend to be a male disciple and come out to exchange a few words with Li Xiucai. The man and woman were 10 to each other. Minutes."

Wang Heng said: "How did Li Xiucai write the plum blossom poem?"

Xiaocai glared at Wang Heng and said, "Seventh brother must be stupid. Since Miss Qu San's name is embedded in it, how can it be spread out?"

"It's really a good story." Wang Heng laughed it off. He had no intention of seeking marriage, and naturally he had no jealousy.

The gentle breeze is blowing, flowers are blooming on the streets, swallows are whispering and flying, and peach blossoms are blooming after dipping in the water.

After finally taking a day off, I can't live up to the spring glory.

There was no such attentive host as Master Chu to entertain guests, so Wang Heng and Xiaocai hired a green donkey to go out of the city for an outing to Lingyan Mountain.

The green donkey was tied under the old willow tree at the foot of the mountain, and the two climbed up the stairs.Even though Lingyan Mountain is only over 50 feet high, Wang Heng and Xiaocai spent a lot of time sitting and talking and less time running and jumping. They were exhausted and sweating even before they reached the top of the hill, so they simply sat down and rested for a while, facing south. Looking down at Yijianhe Caixiangjing.

There is a legend of a heroic beauty here. King Wu Fu Chai drew his bow and shot an arrow. According to the direction of the arrow, he mobilized the people to open a river from Lingyan Mountain to Xiangshan Mountain. From then on, King Wu often accompanied Xi Shi on boating to collect fragrant Jing.

The good person also said that Xi Shi Fan Li successfully returned to Yue and escaped through this Caixiangjing River.

"Seventh Young Master, I'm so interested in picking incense and looking at beauties." The visitor is an old scholar, but he turns out to be from Liumo Village with white beard and white eyebrows.

Wang Henggong cupped his hands and said: "You will get stronger when you are old, Mr. Mo, I am ashamed of myself."

After chatting for a few words, it turned out that after Liu Mocun returned to the city, he found a place in Chu's house on Micang Lane to teach a student who didn't want to study hard.

"Chu House in Micang Lane? May I ask if it's Si Zuo, the General Affairs Envoy, who consults with the Chu family?" Wang Heng asked.

A look of shame appeared on Liu Mocun's face and he said: "It's this famous dandy."

Wang Heng looked to both sides, but saw that Mr. Chu was nowhere to be seen, so he said, "Mr. Chu, did you come to climb the mountain today? He and I were classmates in a foreign house last year."

Liu Mocun said: "Chu Sheng was young and walked very fast. He climbed all the way up and thought he had reached the ruins of Guanwa Palace."

Wang Heng and Xiaocai had rested for a while, then got up and walked with Liu Mocun.

The three of them slowly walked up the mountain. Along the way, Wang Heng frowned and was lost in thought. He was so stunned that he couldn't speak.

Liu Mocun smiled and said: "The scenery along the way is superb. Seventh Young Master, don't worry about it. If you miss this day, you will have to wait for next year."

Wang Heng looked around and saw that there were only three people visiting the mountain here. He made up his mind and asked: "Mr. Mo has been in charge of Xianyun Tower in Wanhu Village for nine years. In fact, it was because of his personal relationship with Huang Yongning, right? "

The old man from Liumo Village blushed and laughed at himself as if nothing had happened: "No, that's why Mr. Huang Er was appointed as the president of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce and regarded himself as the owner of Wanhu Village. The old man stopped his business and packed up his bed and returned to his hometown."

Wang Heng stared at Liu Mo Village and said quietly: "That day when we returned to Suzhou City on the same boat, I thought you had found the treasure of the Baitou Army and returned to your hometown to retire. Who would have thought that today we met Mr. Mo unexpectedly? It was only after I went to the Chu family to become a teacher that I realized that I had guessed wrong that day."

Liu Mocun was dejected and sighed deeply, saying: "The old man has done nothing in his life, has no hope of fame, and his family is in decline. When he was middle-aged, he heard about the treasure of the White-headed Army and thought it was a gift from God. He was so absorbed in it that he didn't want to think about it. After wasting decades, the treasures of the Baek Tou Army, no matter how evil the rumors are, are still a mystery to the authorities. In the last years of the previous dynasty, people's livelihood was so difficult. Where did the treasures come from in the Baek Tou Army's stronghold? If there were treasures, they would have been used long ago. .”
