General, who is the child's father!

"That's about the same!" Li Mu snorted.

"But we didn't bring so much money. I only have 50 taels here. Can I pay you the rest when I get it back?" Qian Guanshi asked cautiously.

"50 taels? Are you sending a beggar?" Li Mu glared at Manager Qian.

"You! Hurry up and take out all the money you have on your body!" Guanshi Qian rolled his eyes and yelled at the strong men. He took out his silver and managed to get 160 taels together, which was far from the 500 taels Li Mu asked for!

"Young Fangzhu!" Qian Guanshi was anxious, his eyes suddenly drifted to the young Fangzhu who was still in a coma, and he hurried over to find out the money on him. This young Fangzhu is a big family, not only has 100 taels of silver, but also He had a bank note of 200 taels, but now he has 460 taels!Manager Qian hurriedly took out everything, and as for the young Fangzhu's investigation after the incident, we have to wait until he wakes up to talk about it, and now we can't control it!

"Can you make this cheaper? We only have these!" Qian Guanshi carefully walked up to Li Mu with the silver, trying to get Li Mu to lower the price.

With a difference of 40 taels, Li Mu didn't want to make things difficult for these people anymore, he was about to let go, but he didn't want Bailiyuan to say: "No way!"

It was blocked all of a sudden, Guanshi Qian was extremely anxious, but Bailiyuan bent forward and took out a wooden sign from the arms of the young Fangzhu, which was revealed just now when Guanshi Qian was looking for money. Li Yuan looked at the wooden sign and said, "Use this to pay for it!"

When Guanshi Qian saw this ordinary wooden plaque, it was worth 40 taels. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and after carefully handing over the silver in his hand to Li Mu, he quickly sent someone to take the young master away.

Many people and villagers gathered outside the gate to watch the commotion, but they dared not go in. They speculated that Li Mu would definitely be taught a lesson by the people of Dongfang this time. Many people who were jealous of Li Mu were secretly happy. It's a pity that the last thing I saw was the people from Dongfang running away in desperation!

This made everyone stunned, and at the same time, they were a little afraid of Li Mu. He Dongyuan, who was mixed in the crowd, trembled with fear. Why is his cheap nephew so powerful?He hurriedly pulled He Ling, and retreated hidden in the crowd. He told Dongfang about the place where Li Mu lived, and the people in Dongfang failed to clean up Li Mu. I hope these people don't take their anger on me!

After Li Mu settled Uncle Xiang, he called a doctor to look at him, and then asked Bailiyuan, "What is this wooden plaque?"

He didn't think that an ordinary wooden sign could make Bailiyuan speak, there must be some unknown mystery hidden in this wooden sign.

Bailiyuan took out the wooden sign from his pocket and showed it to Li Mu, and said, "It's not clear yet, but I guess it should be a token or identity certificate of an organization."

"Have you seen it?" Li Mu frowned. The wooden sign didn't seem to have any special features, only some complicated patterns and a capital letter. I don't know what it means.

"Well, I saw it from an assassin." Bailiyuan nodded, feeling that the matter was a bit complicated. The assassin he mentioned should be a member of King Qin, but after searching the other assassins, only one assassin had This wooden sign is exactly the same as the one in my hand. I don't know what it means. If it is a professional assassin, the young Fangzhu's skills are completely different. It seems that I have to check this wooden sign carefully.

"When? Are you injured?" Hearing this moment, Li Mu's heart tightened. This prince is really hard to be. There are people who want to kill you all the time. Bailiyuan was assassinated not once or twice.

"It's okay, a few assassins can't hurt me." Bailiyuan patted Li Mu's hand to comfort him.

………………

Today's town is a bit serious, and the county office is even more tense and busy. The county magistrate Wang Yong looked at the gate of the county office several times, and muttered anxiously to himself why he hasn't come yet!Why not come?

Just as the magistrate was circling in a hurry, a yamen servant ran over panting and said, "My lord, here we come, here we come!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong quickly roared inside: "Get ready!" Then he lifted his robe and trotted outside.

On the main road of Hefeng Town, a carriage was approaching slowly, surrounded by men in guards riding tall horses with big knives on their waists, and the people of Hefeng Town stood on both sides of the street with their necks propped up. Looking from this side, there is wonder and awe in the eyes.

"Who is this? It's really grand!" A person who didn't know why hurriedly pulled the person next to him and asked.

"This man is the magistrate!" The man who was caught said very solemnly, the magistrate, he is a senior official from the fourth rank, and he is not at the same level as the county magistrate of the seventh rank. Maybe they will only see each other for the rest of their lives. To such a time!

This group of people headed for the county government along the street. The magistrate Xia An staggered in the carriage. Every year, he went to Xun a small town under his jurisdiction to patrol. This year happened to be the turn of Hefeng Town. Opening the curtains and looking at the bustling streets outside and watching his own people, Xia An felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, this is all his territory!

"Woo!" Suddenly the carriage stopped, and there was a commotion outside, Xia An asked with some displeasure, "What's the matter!" The voice was majestic.

"My lord, someone stopped the car!" The man driving the car quickly replied.

"My lord! I beg the prefect to be the master of the people!" A young man's voice came from outside, the voice was sad, as if there was a great grievance.

Hearing this, Xia An frowned, she didn't expect someone in Hefeng Town to stop the car and complain!He lifted the car curtain and got out, and saw a young man kneeling not far away, and asked aloud, "Who is kneeling?"

"My lord, Cao Min and Lin Tian of Linjia Village, Fengzhen, have grievances and beg the magistrate to be the master of the people!" The person kneeling outside is Lin Shan's youngest son, Lin Tian. Said loudly on the ground.

"What's the grievance?" Xia An asked.

"Xiaomin wants to sue Li Mu of Lin Family Village for colluding with the county magistrate, slandering others to seize family wealth, not only driving my family out, but also putting my elder brother in jail, and driving my relatives crazy, Xiaomin begged the adults to preside Fairness!" Lin Tian raised his head, his eyes were full of hatred for Li Mu, after sending Lin Feng to the prison again, he was beaten fifty times before and locked up dying, and he still doesn't know his life or death, and his relatives also Driven mad and delirious, Lin Feng's husband, Lin Yu, even ran away, because Li Mu made their family look like this!

"So there is such a thing?" Xia An touched the beard on his chin and said in a low voice. The people around him also started to discuss after hearing this. At the beginning, Li Mu sued the uncle for forging the certificate. Many people remember it.

"Official Wang Yong pays homage to your lord!" At this time, Wang Yong also rushed over. When he saw the magistrate's chariot and horses being stopped by someone, his heart skipped a beat, and he paid homage with sweat all over his head.

"Master Wang, this person wants to sue you for colluding with others and embezzling other people's property, is there such a thing?" Xia An asked Wang Yong, looking at him.

"Please forgive me, my lord. The villain doesn't know this person, and I don't know about it. Please enlighten me!" Wang Yong has never met Lin Tian, ​​so he doesn't know what this is referring to, but the things he has done are still unknown. It was quite a lot, and suddenly his eyes flickered.

"In this case, let's go to the county government first, Zhang Qing, bring Lin Tian with us!" Naturally, Xia An would not just listen to Lin Tian's words and make things difficult for the county magistrate, leaving a word behind and turned back into the sedan chair.

"Yes!" Zhang Qing was the head of the guards on the side, and he asked someone to take Lin Tian with him. The carriage moved slowly again, and arrived at the gate of the county government office after a while.

Knowing that the magistrate was coming back, Wang Yong had already made preparations. The orderly yamen servants stood at the door and welcomed the magistrate with serious faces. The county government office was also cleaned.

"My lord, you are exhausted from traveling and traveling. I have prepared some food and wine for you. Please come in and take a rest?" After entering the courtyard, Wang Yong stepped forward and said obsequiously, intending to lure the magistrate to the inner hall.

"I'm not hungry yet. Someone stopped the car and filed a complaint here. It's obviously a big grievance. We'd better open the trial first!" Xia An rejected Wang Yong's proposal, and he was actually a good official. appearance.

"My lord, you only know one thing about this matter and don't know the other, you can't let this scumbag be fooled!" On the way here, Wang Yong had already found out who Lin Tian was, and quickly advised Xia An.

"My lord, this deed is indeed fake. This is mainly caused by the laxness of the subordinate officials. The subordinate officials are indeed responsible, and the most important thing is not here, but this Li Mu's identity is extraordinary!" Wang Yong Quickly added.

"Oh?" Xia An raised his eyes to look at Wang Yong, and said in a deep voice, "What is his identity?"

Wang Yong glanced left and right, Xia An immediately understood and waved his hands to both sides. Seeing that everyone retreated, he said softly: "This Li Mu has the prince's token in his hand, so don't offend him!"

"Prince's token? Which prince is it?" Hearing Wang Yong's words, Xia An's eyes darkened, and he asked with his hands behind his back.

"This... this official was too nervous at the time, so I didn't see it clearly!" Wang Yong replied in embarrassment, after thinking for a while, he quickly said: "But the official dares to guarantee his own life, this person is definitely holding the token of the prince. , can’t be wrong!”

This Wang Yong also went to Beijing to rush for the exam, and his grades were not bad, and he was lucky enough to see the prince's identity token once, but because he offended someone, he was released here and became a small county magistrate.

"So that's it! This matter is not simple!" Xia An carried her back with one hand and stroked her beard with the other.

"That's the case, how could the lower officials do collusion and favoritism! Why don't you go in and have some tea?" Hearing Xia An's words, Wang Yong suggested with a smile.

"No, let me find out about Li Mu's details first." Who would have thought that Xia An actually rejected Wang Yong's proposal, and ordered someone to find out about Li Mu's affairs. It seems that he has other calculations in his heart. Seeing Xia An's actions, Wang Yong's heart jumped even more. Could there be some changes in this matter?
