Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 90 Catch a robber along the way

Early the next morning, Luo Sanmu approached people in his village to discuss the matter, but no one took the initiative to go back.

Both men and women ran to the wasteland as soon as they woke up, and even children were urged by adults to help.

Plant three acres and leave one acre. Normally, a family can plant two acres of land in a day and earn one acre in a day and a half. Where can I find such a good thing?

Besides, if we don’t clear the land now, we’ll have to rush to sow the seeds in a few days. Where will they be planted then?
Luo Sanmu searched every house along the road, but no one wanted to pay attention to him.

There was no other way, Luo Sanmu thought he could only make this trip by himself.

When he returned home, he told Jiang Chan. Jiang Chan didn't agree very much, "It only takes three or four days for you to come and go on the road. Only me and two children are left at home. Even if I work hard, I can't catch up with others." ah."

Luo Sanmu frowned and said: "I made an agreement with the village chief when I came here. If the situation here is good, I will go back and inform them. After all, he is the clan uncle, and I can't leave him there.

When I go to Yangmen County, I will try to rent a donkey cart and I will come back as soon as possible. "

"Who will go back with you?" Jiang Chan asked again, "How can I rest assured if you go back alone?"

"I carry a stick with me," Luo Sanmu said. "I'm big, no one will mess with me."

"I heard that the robbers in Yangmen County have been causing trouble for a long time, and they haven't been caught all yet. I'm really worried."

"Don't worry about it, I'll be back in two days." Luo Sanmu said with care, "You must take good care of Shitou during the two days I'm gone. Don't let him offend anyone with his mouth."

"I know this."

"You and your sister-in-law go down to the ground together. I'll go to the Yamen and ask if there are any formalities for passing through the city gate of Yangmen County."

Although Jiang Chan repeatedly emphasized that she was not at ease, Luo Sanmu believed that the news must be communicated back.

He packed himself some dry food, touched a few pennies, and walked around the county government office.

Just when Zhang Yuan came out with someone, Luo Sanmu stepped forward to say hello with a smiling face.

"What? Are you okay?"

"Master Bing, aren't there some people from our village who haven't arrived yet? I want to go back and greet them." Luo Sanmu said, "I want to ask you about Yangmen County City Wall and whether it requires paperwork."

"Of course." Zhang Yuan said, "Liangzhou is located at the border. You don't need a formal warrant at any gate you pass."

Luo Sanmu followed and said, "Yes, then, Lord Bing, who should I ask for this official document?"

"Look for the chief clerk." Zhang Yuan turned to someone behind him and said, "Go and tell Captain Yang." After that, he said to Luo Sanmu: "Just wait outside, someone will come out later. .”

"Yes."

Luo Sanmen watched the group of people walking away, and stood looking around at the gate of the county government office. He saw many masons busy inside the county government office, and some soldiers were helping.

There were so many people walking around, but no one glanced at the door.

He stood at the door for a long time, wondering if he should ask anyone again, when he saw a soldier who looked familiar to him walking next to him. He knew this person, and he had seen him often following Master Meng in the past.

Luo Sanmu immediately put on a smile and greeted the other party, "Master Bing, I want an official document to prove that I will go back to pick up the old people in the village."

"I know." Yang Zheng was about to come out when he heard the message from the soldiers, but happened to be heard by Meng Changqing who was passing by. Meng Changqing meant to send a few people on horseback to escort the man back.

Yang Zheng just went to gather people, so he came out late.

"The official document has been opened. I will take you back on horseback later to save you time along the way."

Luo Sanmu was surprised and happy, but when he came back to his senses, he still felt even more frightened when he thought that his uncle and the others were in the village without moving at all. "No, no, no, just give me the paperwork and I'll go back by myself."

As soon as he said these words, several soldiers came behind him leading horses.

"Everyone is ready, you don't have to be polite." Yang Zheng took his horse, "If you don't know how to ride a horse, just ride with me." He first got on the horse, and then went to pull Luo Sanmu.

Seeing that he could not shirk, Luo Sanmu could only climb on the horse.

He had never ridden a horse before, and he had always felt envious when he saw others riding one. Now that he was sitting on it, he felt extremely uncomfortable. However, due to the kindness of others, he could only endure the discomfort even though he felt uncomfortable.

On the way Yang Zheng told him, "The reason why I want to escort you is precisely because of the high mountains here. There are bandits on the mountains. If a pedestrian passes by alone, he is likely to be robbed by them."

"So that's it. It's thanks to a few soldiers."

After giving the warrant, they entered Yangmen County and walked some distance before everyone dismounted and rested for a while.

Yang Zheng led the horse to the side of the road, let it eat some grass, and groomed it along the way.

When several people were discussing whose horse Luo Sanmu would ride on later, a man suddenly rushed out from the surrounding path.

This man was holding a cloth bag in his hand and was running forward as fast as he could while looking back.

Yang Zheng and others didn't realize what was going on, but they saw someone else chasing after them quickly.

"Don't run!" the man behind shouted as he ran.

Yang Zheng knew the man behind him. When the city wall was built, he stayed in the camp with his brother to recover from his injuries for a while. He still remembered that his name was Zeng Dashu.

In fact, Yang Zheng was closer to the person grabbing the bag in front of him. He ran quickly in a few steps, caught up with him and pushed the person to the ground directly.

"Thank you..." Before Zeng Dashu finished his sentence, he saw Yang Zheng turning his head and said in surprise: "You are the captain of Beishan County. Thank you for catching this gangster who robbed our Zheng. Money, I’m chasing him.”

He ran all the way and was panting from exhaustion, "Thanks to you, otherwise I might not be able to catch up with him."

Yang Zheng stepped on the man under his feet and took the bag from the man's hand, "Is this the bag that was being robbed at your home?"

"Yes."

Yang Zheng opened the bag and looked at the contents, "Tell me what's in it."

"It's the five ounces of money that Li Zheng just exchanged."

Yang Zheng saw that there was indeed five ounces of money inside, and asked the gangster who was stepping on him, "What can you do wrong at a young age, imitate others' robbery!"

The same to you. Yang Zheng threw the cloth bag to Boss Zeng, "I think he's not as big or as strong as you, how could you still be robbed by him?" "

"Thank you, sir." Boss Zeng explained, "There were several of them, and I defeated a few others before I came after him."

"What about the rest."

"They should have been tied up by Li Zheng." Boss Zeng said, "Li Zheng wants to hand them over to the government." He paid attention to Yang Zheng's expression when he said this, "I just happened to meet you now, I will go with you Li Zheng said, just hand these people over to you."

"No need." Yang Zheng took the rope from the person next to him and tied up the gangsters at his feet, "We have a mission and it's not convenient to delay. You'd better go with Li Zheng and hand these people over to the nearest government office.

I think this place is closer to Yangmen County. If you don’t want to create complications, you should go directly to Yangmen County. "
