This is true.

Tang Lin hesitated for a while, thinking of the so much money he had taken out today and the grievances he had suffered, he felt a little panicked, looked at his little brothers, and said in a low voice: "You guys Want revenge?"

"think."

"Of course I do."

"Brother Fourteen, just tell me what to do, we will all listen to you."

Seeing the four brothers looking at him expectantly, Tang Lin nodded and said, "Okay, since everyone agrees, let's go out and find out the whereabouts of the little prince first."

"But..." Hearing Tang Lin's words, Tang Mian hesitated and said, "Brother Fourteen, he is a prince, where should we find out?"

"That's not easy. Let's ask the buddy of the Drunken Eight Immortals first. If the buddy doesn't know, just ask the shopkeeper. Someone will always know his whereabouts."

"That's one way."

After the brothers discussed the details again, taking advantage of Chen Yueying's busy schedule, they sneaked out of the mansion, but they never expected that when they first arrived at the gate, two people would come face to face, the one walking in front The middle-aged man didn't know him himself, but the brothers behind him remembered him firmly in their hearts.

It's this kid who lied to the brothers and a few people to give out the address, but in the end he asked for as much as 1000 taels from his family. Don't even think about the extra, he must have been greedy for ink. Now I see this guy who dares to come to the door Come, the brothers' eyes turned sideways, they stood in front of Qi Butou, and said sharply: "What are you doing here again?"

When he saw Tang Lin, Catcher Qi was startled. He was not afraid of the mistress of the He family, but such a difficult slave. Hearing Tang Lin's question, he quickly nodded and said, "Little Tang Hero, this is Mr. Bai, the county magistrate of Wanping County. There are many misunderstandings about what happened today. Mr. Bai came here this time to explain this matter to Mrs. He."

"Explanation? What kind of explanation?" Tang Lin looked around. Except for the two people and a small sedan chair, there was no one carrying a silver box. What kind of explanation is there if there is no silver?

At this time, it was County Magistrate Bai's turn to play, and he smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Actually, this matter is all a misunderstanding. The officer is also afraid that Mrs. He will have a grudge, so I want to explain to her clearly that this is what should be done in the yamen. Going through the process."

"Hmph." Hearing this, Tang Lin couldn't help snorting heavily: "The process that should be followed? Does Mr. Bai think that I have never stayed in the Yamen? Tell you, I, Tang Lin, have also stayed in the Daxing County Yamen for a while." Over the years, why haven’t you heard the principle of arresting only one side when arresting people? Also, the drunken eight immortals said that we ate 540 taels, and you believed it? Why didn’t anyone ask what we ate?”

"...Okay, even if we really ate 540 taels, why did he ask our He family for 1000 taels?"

If we look at the root cause, of course it is a greedy word, but it is not easy to explain it clearly. The Bai county magistrate smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "This county can explain this matter, but it is not explained to you. Listen, after seeing Madam He's words, the county will tell Madam He the whole story."

The meaning in these words is clearly that he didn’t take himself seriously. Tang Lin was taken aback for a moment, then with a mocking smile on his face, he shook his head and said, “I’m really sorry. I'm too busy, how can I have time to receive you, Lord Bai? So, please go back."

"You..." At the beginning, County Magistrate Bai thought it was Tang Lin's random excuse, but when he was about to get angry, someone pulled his sleeve suddenly. Pointing his head in the direction of the alley, he said in a low voice, "Look quickly, my lord, they are the vanguard of the government army."

Uh?

County magistrate Bai turned his head in doubt, but saw a group of people approaching from a distance, and the general in front of the door jumped down. He was taken aback when he saw the scene at the door, and then asked curiously: " Tang Lin, when did you come back? What's going on?"

Seeing Su Can approaching, Tang Lin hurried up to meet him, and greeted with a smile: "General, I have been back with some little brothers for several days. This adult wants to see my mistress, but he still doesn't believe me when I say something is going on at home." , we have to meet each other."

As soon as someone wanted to see Chen Yueying, Su Can couldn't help but glanced at County Magistrate Bai, who seemed familiar, and couldn't help but ask, "This lord is...?"

Su Can didn't know County Magistrate Bai, but County Magistrate Bai recognized the popular person in front of the emperor, and quickly saluted: "Your Majesty Bai Dingguan, the county magistrate of Wanping County, has met General Su."

"You recognize me?" Su Can was a little surprised.

"When the lower official entered the palace, he had a few meetings with the general."

"So that's it." Su Can nodded, not wanting to get too entangled with him, waved his hand and said, "It's not very convenient for the He family today, so come back later if you have anything to do."

After that, he ignored Magistrate Bai and walked into the He Mansion by himself.

"My lord, what should we do?" Butou Qi quickly asked in a low voice.

"Idiot, what are you still doing, go back to the county government office."

Chapter 1242 There are ghosts in the middle of the night

It was busy until dark, and the drunken eight immortals began to close. After the busy day, the guys left the restaurant with their tired bodies and walked towards their own direction after cleaning the restaurant.

Taking advantage of the moonlight above his head, Chu Shuai walked carefully along the street, looking around vigilantly while walking. He had never been so vigilant in normal times, but today was somewhat different.

There are two big ingots in his arms, which are a full 20 taels of silver, which is equivalent to his income for half a year without eating or drinking. Although the origin of this money is not very bright, those boys are indeed too wronged. But when he thought that he would be able to marry a wife with all this money, all guilt had disappeared from his mind, and he only thought about one thing, that is, don't be robbed by others.

The usual short walk seemed extraordinarily long today. Just as Chu Shuai turned a street corner, he suddenly caught a faint shadow behind him from the corner of his eyes.

Well?someone?

Chu Shuai hurriedly turned back, looking suspiciously at the way he came from behind him, but he didn't even see half a ghost, so he blinked his eyes. Could it be that he was too nervous, so he misread?

Shaking his head, and making sure that there was no one behind him again, Master Chu turned around, but the pace of the journey was also quickened a lot.

As he walked, Chu Shuai suddenly felt something was wrong again. He was clearly the only one on this road, so how could there be two people's footsteps?

Thinking of this, Chu Shuai suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from the back of his neck, so he quickly stopped and listened carefully to the voices in the air.

Strange to say, when he stopped, the footsteps behind him also stopped. Chu Shuai turned his head abruptly, but he still couldn't see anyone behind him.

Although he couldn't see anyone, the footsteps could not be faked. If he walked forward, the sound would follow, but when he turned around, he couldn't see anything.

The footsteps became more and more urgent, but the voice behind him never disappeared. When Chu Shuai was sweating profusely, he finally returned to the door of the house.

Looking back at the still empty alley, Chu Shuai hurriedly fled into the house, locked the courtyard door and returned home in a hurry.

Not long after his figure disappeared, a figure suddenly appeared from the dark part of the alley, looked in through the crack of the door a few times, then stretched out his hand and grabbed the wall, his body jumped up almost vertically, silently He jumped into the yard without any breath.

"Son, have you met a bad guy? Why are you so frightened that you are sweating profusely?" The old man's worried voice came from the room, and Tang Lin who was outside was stunned for a moment. listen.

"It's okay, mother, you don't have to worry, it's just that I was in a hurry, so I sweated a little, and it will be fine in a while." Chu Shuai comforted him casually, and then said with a smile: "By the way, mother, I have something to ask for. Give it to you, don't be intimidated."

"Hehe, there's nothing that can scare you." The old lady answered casually. Just when she was about to ask Chu Shuai what he would bring out, she suddenly saw him take out two large ingots from his arms. There is a silvery light shining below.

"This..." The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then worried instead of happy, and asked worriedly: "My son, where did you get this ingot? Did you do something bad?"

Chu Shuai felt guilty for a moment, and quickly shook his head and said, "Mother, what are you talking about, this is a reward from the shopkeeper for seeing how hard I work."

The old lady was not fooled by Chu Shuai's words, and asked coldly: "You didn't lie to me? I will go to the restaurant tomorrow and ask your shopkeeper why I gave you so much money."

"Mom, what are you doing in the restaurant?" Chu Shuai understood his old lady's temperament, and knew that this matter must not be fooled like this. If he had known this, he would not have taken out the money.

"Quickly tell me, where did this money come from?" Chu Shuai finally told the truth after being pressed by his old lady repeatedly, and said in a low voice: "It was the shopkeeper who asked me to deceive a group of rural bumpkins from other places. After that, he will give me money." of."

"What?" Chu Shuai's mother's voice suddenly changed, and she scolded angrily: "How did I teach you when you were young? You should act according to your conscience. You really pissed me off."

Seeing the angry look of his old lady, Chu Shuai also realized that he had made her angry, and quickly said: "Mother, don't be angry, can't I return the money tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'll give you another chance, if you don't return it...don't call me mother in the future."

Tang Lin outside heard all this, and couldn't help secretly admiring this sensible old man. After thinking about it, he took back the plan he had made, and slowly retreated along the way he came.

"Brother Fourteen, why did you come out?" Tang Hao and others outside were about to go in and pretend to be ghosts to scare them, but they didn't expect to see Tang Lin jumping out before they could go in.

Tang Lin waved his hand and said, "This is not a place to talk, let's go back first."
