Chapter 264
Is that dead eunuch in the tax customs?
Xiaobei's eyes flashed, hesitating that he should leave as soon as he should, and continued to find out Wang Fulin's whereabouts, or stay here for a while, and inquire about what was going on here. The next scream of ghosts and howling inside finally managed to trip her up. So she quietly poked a hole in the window paper, and then looked inside carefully. In the huge room, a thin middle-aged man in a brocade robe, but at this moment, his bright clothes were already messy and was kicked and beaten. At first, he cursed, but then he kept begging for mercy. In the end, he turned his eyes and seemed to faint.
It was not until this time that the two men with white scarves wrapped in hair seemed to be angry. One of them asked with some concern: "Third brother, will you die?"
"Hmph, this eagle dog is used to pretending to be dead, so don't pay attention to him!"
As the two of them clapped their hands and turned away, while the middle-aged man on the ground was motionless, Xiaobei thought for a while, and finally decided to take a risk. She took off the white towel on her head, changed to a way of tying her hair, wrinkled her short clothes on her body, and then wiped a few handfuls of dust on her face. Then she turned back to the front door angrily and broke into it without saying a word. As soon as the two big men in front of the door reached out to stop her, she shouted in a voice: "Those two guys can enter just now, why can't I enter? That dead eagle dog dared to catch my head, and I want to beat him to death!"
Although Xiaobei was short and only fourteen or fifteen years old, her fierce look with her fists made the two men smile knowingly and finally made way. However, one of them warned: "Just beat me up, just beat me. Don't beat me for a while. After an hour, this guy has been kept. It's useful to keep this guy. Besides, the lords of the government office have come in person now. Next, we have to discuss the result. If this dead eunuch has a few shortcomings, it will be difficult to deal with!"
"I know, I'm just breathing!"
Xiaobei was afraid of being exposed, so he ran straight inside without looking back. When he kicked the door open and entered the room, she saw the middle-aged man in brocade robe just struggling to get up from the ground. He immediately smiled, closed the two doors with his heels, rushed forward quickly, grabbed the other party's collar, and pulled the person up. He thought he was going to be beaten again, but the middle-aged man who had just been beaten immediately wailed, followed by a constant begging for mercy. She was about to ask questions and was very impatient, and immediately shouted in anger: "I'll kill you if you yell!"
This threat was indeed effective. The person immediately shut up and asked, "I'll ask you. You are the eunuch of the tax customs in Beixinguan, what's the name Zhang..."
Although I didn't understand why Xiaobei asked this, the middle-aged man in brocade robe still said honestly: "Zhang Ning, our family is Zhang Ning! Our family is a tax eunuch!"
I really found the right person...
Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lower his voice and said, "How did those people detain you?"
Although Zhang Ning has been in the palace for half his life, and this eunuch of the tax customs has only been a little bit old for half a year, he has already tasted it. He widened his eyes in surprise and said repeatedly: "Are you here to save our family? Save our family out quickly, gold and silver beauties, you can do anything, our family has a lot of rewards..."
Wang Fulin hasn't found it yet. She still can't figure out what the situation in Beixin Pass is. You have to be calm and not be anxious!
The place where eunuchs of the tax and customs were seen in Beixinguan. At this moment, Tu Yuan occupied the first chair in his left hand, but he sat steadily and didn't look at the tea bowl beside him. Wang Fulin, who was at his hand, was holding the teacup from Jingdezhen, enjoying the pattern with interest, and looked at the white scarf man left in the room from the corner of his eyes. These guys should be selected, tall, strong, and full of momentum, but he could clearly notice that everyone was looking at Tu Yuan. No one dared to stare at the Hangzhou prefect who sat like a bell.
"If you withdraw from Beixin Pass and release Eunuch Zhang, I will use my black hat to ensure that no one will pursue the followers except the evil ones. If you don't agree, I will sit here. It's easy to kill me, but from now on, you will be thieves who kill officials, and your parents and family will become thieves who are thieves. The world is so big that you can't think of a place to live!"
Thinking of the harsh words Tu Yuan just made, Wang Fulin understood that this should have hit the weakness of these people! Even if it is a hob, he is not afraid of death, but he really has to be strong with the government. Obviously, not everyone has such confidence. Although bandits have never been banned these days, at least during the Longqing period, in the southeast, there was no real bandit that had become a climate in the southeast, let alone where to escape in the Yangtze River Delta plains like Hangzhou? It is not like Suzhou, with a vast Taihu Lake. How big is the West Lake? Isn't it a joke to escape to West Lake and become a water bandit?
"The hour is coming!"
Hearing this voice, Wang Fulin looked out and saw that Zhong Nanfeng was ahead, and someone grabbed a middle-aged man with a scattered brocade robe and followed him into the room. However, when he saw the young man who was pulling the person clearly, he almost smashed the teacup in his hand! At this moment, he tried his best to control himself not to show surprise or any expression. Even if the young man who was holding the middle-aged eunuch walked past him, he glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and he did not reveal any flaws, but his heart was already churning violently.
He was infected by Tu Yuan and named by the censor Xie Pengju, so he had to come differently, but how could Mrs. Su agree to this little girl to run to such a deadly place!
Wang Fulin looked at Huo Zheng almost immediately. Seeing that he was following him today, he widened his eyes and obviously recognized Xiaobei, who had competed with the veterans of the Qi family, so he quickly shook his head at him.
"Tu Fuzun, all of us are surprised by your courage, so I am willing to believe what you said once. But we can't believe this dead eunuch!" Zhong Nanfeng sat down and slapped the handrail, reached out to Zhang Ning who was holding Xiaobei's hand, and shouted angrily, "We live our lives well, but this dead eunuch colluded with the Jinyiwei, took us all over, and asked us what account books we had. The joke was that few people who were fighting for the business had read. What was the account books we wanted?"
Wang Fulin spent all his energy just now on convinced Zhong Nanfeng that Tu Yuan had started. He had only understood the cause and effect of this farce. He took a deep breath with his eyelids, and used his eyes to signal Xiaobei not to act rashly. Then he looked at Zhang Ning, who was more shocked and angry than him. Tu Yuan stared at Zhang Ning and asked in a deep voice: "Eunuch Zhang, can you give me an explanation?"
"this……"
Tu Yuan stood up suddenly and said word by word: "I have something to say to Eunuch Zhang. Can you please do it for a convenience? If you are not at ease, just guard outside the door."
Although Zhong Nanfeng is a city man, he also knows that there are so many twists and turns in the officialdom, and he always doesn't want to hear some words like him. He doesn't want to hear them either. He immediately stood up and said unhappily: "Even if you want me to listen, I'm too lazy to listen!"
When he saw Wang Fulin staring at the dead eunuch thoughtfully, he immediately felt aroused and agreed readily: "Yes, but this little official Wang and the two soldiers went out with me, and I also wanted to ask them something!" After he said that, he ordered Xiaobei, "Stay this little brother, and someone will watch this dead eunuch!"
When Xiaobei's expression changed when he heard that this guy was trying to keep him and Tu Yuan, he actually took Wang Fulin out. However, Wang Fulin stood up calmly and agreed happily: "Tu Fuzun, please ask here, let me go to the outside world."
After Wang Fulin finished speaking, he took Huo Zheng and walked out. Since he was so bachelor, Zhong Nanfeng did not hesitate anymore. He waved his hand and retreated all the people around him, and closed the door considerately. As soon as the two doors were closed, Tu Yuan didn't care about the half-grown boy who was holding Zhang Ning. He walked straight to Zhang Ning, lowered his voice and said, "Eunuch Zhang, do you want to live or not?"
