Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 3 The Prisoner
Liang Xiao was amazed, with the courage that came out of nowhere, he also responded with a sneer.

"Uncle Wang, if you say that, then I would like to ask who this Lord Huan is. Our mother and son have lived here for more than ten years, but why have we never seen him. Judging by his clothes, he should be from just now. The released prisoner, dare to ask him what crime he committed and how he was released. You said that this is his house, does he have a deed, can you take a look?"

Wang Fengshi was amazed and turned his head to look at Liang Yu. "Mrs. Liang's family, your little tricks are promising, and you dare to reason with me, and you say it logically. What's the matter, I let you live here for more than ten years, and instead of accumulating virtue, you have accrued resentment?"

Liang Yu hurriedly apologized. "Uncle Wang, don't treat your anger with tricks. Xiao'er was ill two days ago, and his mind was a little confused. Yesterday, she invited Granny Chu to call her soul, and you saw it with your own eyes. Just treat him as farting, don't Compete with him."

"I don't want to argue with him, but if he goes out and talks nonsense, I will be charged with a serious crime." Wang Fengshi cast a sidelong glance at Liang Xiao, snorted, and dragged his voice out. "For so many years, your mother and son have never been borrowed. Seeing that he has grown up, many things can't be done if he doesn't. I'm also very embarrassed."

After Liang Yu heard this, she became more nervous and apologized again and again.Liang Xiao frowned, but he heard some clues from Wang Fengshi's words, and he became more determined in his heart.

He chuckled: "Uncle Wang, it is a good thing to increase our household registration. No matter whether it is the prime minister or the county magistrate, I am afraid that we will not let our mother and son get a loan. What worries me is that he asked why we haven't got a loan for more than ten years. Wang Uncle is not easy to explain, right?"

Although Liang Xiao is not an expert, he also knows that for the government of the Han Dynasty, the increase of household registration is a political achievement, and no one will stop the people from getting loans.The Liang family's mother and son have not been able to borrow money in Guangling for so many years, and have always existed as black households. For the government, it is a loss of tax revenue.As Li Zheng, Wang Fengshi is absolutely responsible.

Thinking deeper, Wang Fengshi is not related to the Liang family, so why did he take in the Liang family's mother and son, and help them hide their household registration?Naturally, the benefits were received.Liang Wei is a good brocade weaver, and all the brocades she weaves are sold to the Ding family at a low price. She only earns living expenses, but the Ding family takes the bulk.It is impossible for the Ding family not to give Wang Fengshi a part of it.

If there was no such interest relationship in it, would Wang Fengshi have such kindness?
Therefore, instead of saying that the mother and son of the Liang family are afraid of losing their loan, it is better to say that Wang Fengshi is afraid of them falling.Liang Yu wanted Liang Xiao to become an official when he became an adult, so he had to get a loan first. Wang Fengshi didn't want to do more about this, so he took this opportunity to silence Liang Yu and extort some money by the way.

Wang Fengshi's face turned red and then white.

For him, the Liang family is an orphan, a widow, and a refugee from outside, and it depends on him to gain a foothold in Guangling, so why not let him do it?Unexpectedly, Liang Xiao, a young man who has always been unscrupulous, would understand the logic of this clearly, and he was not fooled at all.

For a while, he was a little bit stuck, not knowing how to deal with it.He wanted to fight, but he was afraid that Liang Xiao would break the pot and make things worse. This kid is not a kind person.I want to take a step back, but I can't let go.

At this moment, the prisoner said: "I was originally a minister of the Wu Kingdom. I was offended because I attached myself to the King of Wu. I just received an imperial edict today and pardoned me as a citizen. You are right. This is indeed not my home, but my home. The house of a friend of mine. Your mother and son are not the owner of the house, am I right?"

Liang Xiao looked at his mother, Liang Yu.He didn't know these things, he had to ask his mother.Liang Yu nodded again and again to prove it was true.

Liang Xiao couldn't help but let out a sigh.He originally thought that his family was just poor, but now he realized that they were not poor, but very poor.Not only is he poor, he is also a black household, and he does not even own the house where he has lived for more than ten years.

Wang Fengshi suddenly became energetic, and his eyes became extremely stern.

The prisoner waved his hand and stopped Wang Fengshi. "Well, I'm alone, and I don't need much space. You can just give me a room. We'll be neighbors for a while, and I'll move out when I find a new place to live. How about it?"

After hearing this, Liang Xiao didn't have any opinion.People are poor and short-sighted, and it's good enough if they don't drive them away, and he can't go too far.It's just that although this prisoner is lame in one leg and blind in one eye, his aura is not weak. Living under the same roof, conflicts are inevitable in the future.

"Why, are you still afraid that I'm a cripple?" The prisoner seemed to see through Liang Xiao's worry, and said with a half-smile: "You were not like this just outside the city."

"You..." Both Wang Fengshi and Liang Yu were a little surprised.After a long time, it turned out that they knew each other.

"Oh, we met once outside the city." The prisoner smiled lightly and waved to Wang Fengshi. "Okay, it's settled like that, you go about your business, if there is anything, I will come to you."

Wang Fengshi obediently agreed, bowed and gave a salute, then called Liang Wei aside, took care of her a few words, and then left.

The prisoner looked Liang Xiao up and down, and stretched out his hand: "Can I show you your crossbow?"

Liang Xiao hesitated for a moment, then handed over the crossbow that he had been holding all along, but did not give him any arrows.

The prisoner didn't care, he picked up the crossbow, glanced at it, sighed, and lost his mind for a moment.After a while, he smiled self-consciously and returned the crossbow to Liang Xiao. "Have you ever robbed a tomb?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Liang Xiao looked around nervously, especially at his mother.He didn't care in the past, but now he doesn't want his mother to know about his bad deeds in the past.

"This is a weapon made by the State of Wu, and it was buried with you. If it wasn't obtained from the tomb, it would not have appeared in your hands." The prisoner smiled and said again: "Are you illiterate, didn't you see the inscription on it? "

Liang Xiao picked up the crossbow and took a look, and sure enough, he saw a few seal characters, but he still didn't recognize them.

"If you don't want me to report on you, prepare me a delicious meal." The prisoner smiled slightly: "It doesn't have to be too rich, as long as there are chicken and wine. I have eaten prison meals for more than ten years, and I ate too much all of a sudden. Well, the stomach may not be used to it."

The prisoner said, walked to the hall, sat down slowly, patted his lame leg, and looked at Liang Xiao playfully: "Do you regret that you didn't push me into the river when you were outside the city just now?"

Liang Xiao rolled his eyes: "It's okay, there is still a chance now." As he spoke, he pulled the crossbow to the string, and took out another crossbow arrow and put it in the arrow slot. "I haven't learned crossbows for a long time, and my archery skills are average. You have to be careful, maybe I will shoot you accidentally."

The prisoner remained motionless, quietly looking at Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao slowly raised the crossbow, aimed it at the prisoner's throat, raised his eyebrows slowly, trying to make himself look like a villain.Only in this way can the prisoner be given a warning and let him know who is the master here.

One of them was sitting in the hall, and the other was standing in the courtyard. The distance between them was less than ten steps, neither of them moved, and the atmosphere became a bit oppressive.After a while, Liang Xiao felt his arms a little sore, and the crossbow in his hand began to shake.But he refused to give in, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

The prisoner suddenly laughed: "It's a pity that this pair of ape arms can't even support such a short time. What a waste."
