The happy life of the devil and the devil

Unlike Yuan Ran who was in a desperate mood, the Xuanjia Guards who occupied a good place to watch the execution on the other side of Caishikou were in a very happy mood.In this battle, only seventeen of their comrades were wounded by arrows, and none of them were seriously injured. Compared with the opponent whose head rolled off the ground, it can be said that they won a complete victory.

Well, it's not foreign wars, there is no martial arts to get, but the adults still generously gave them bonuses...

The important thing is, those who dare to provoke Xuanjiawei must pay the price!Without exception!

This good mood has been maintained until returning home.Ding Bo made a table of good food specially for his family, and cheered and drank with his colleagues who were not on duty. After a while, even He Liu, who came back from the palace after a shift, smelled the fragrance and touched it.

"Yo~~~~ This smells delicious!" He Liu opened the door loudly, and stepped over to the table.Ding Bai threw a pair of chopsticks hastily, and the bamboo chopsticks shot out with the sound of breaking the wind, narrowly piercing He Liu's claws that had been stretched halfway.

"Hey! Brother, there's no need to be so ruthless!"

"My mother-in-law's cooking, it's fine if you don't bring a bottle of wine when you come to eat, if you don't wash your hands, you can scratch!" Ding Bai pointed to the corner of the wall angrily: "There is water over there, go and wash your claws! "

"Isn't this a hook for gluttons..." He Liu grumbled and complained, but still obediently rolled to the corner of the room, washed his hands in the copper basin, and then turned back to the table.Ding Bai's assistant had already stepped aside and brought clean bowls and chopsticks. He Liu sat on the table and ate without hesitation.

"Brothers, give way!"

After filling two mouthfuls, a very hearty female voice came in from the outside, and suddenly there was a sound of chair feet scraping the floor. There were more than a dozen men at the two round tables in the main room, and about a dozen people stood up in a mess. "Sister-in-law" and "sister-in-law" shouted together.Only He Liu and Jin Bo didn't stand up, they raised their heads and called "brothers and sisters", the woman put two big deep bowls on the table, then raised her head and smiled.

"Uncle He Jia, eat more." Ding Bai's newly married wife can be considered a middle-class official family in terms of background, but her father died young, and she raised her younger siblings by herself. It is not a problem to weigh a frying spoon and sew a piece of clothing.At this time, wrapped in an apron, with a stack of empty vegetable bowls in one hand, standing there full of oily smoke is not very beautiful, but in the eyes of Ding Bai and Xuan Jiawei's gang of bachelors, how is that? How pleasing to the eye.

"Old Ding, you are very lucky. My brother and sister's craftsmanship is nothing to say!" He Liu wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and raised his thumb high into the air.With just one sentence, the chopsticks were raining down in front of my eyes, and some of them were anxious to grab them with their hands. When He Liu put down his hands and took the chopsticks to pick them up, a deep bowl of braised pork had bottomed out. The remaining two pieces are still shaking at the bottom of the bowl.

"I said you should be shameless!" He Liu became impatient, turned his head to the left, Ding Bai's cheeks puffed up, and stared at him in protest; turning his head to the right, Jin Bo took a slow bite on a piece of meat Xiaojiao then picked up another piece from the bowl, lowered his head and took another bite, not forgetting to smile at him.

"you……"

Scanning the table with his eyes, He Liuxun jumped up quickly and picked up a piece of meat that a guard had just picked up and put into the bowl before he could mark it.The chopsticks were only half retracted, and several pairs of bamboo chopsticks stretched out in all directions. On the left side, weeding the grass to look for snakes, and on the right side, white sparrows held rings, chasing and intercepting them.

"I'll pick! I'll pull! I'll twist! I~~~" A piece of meat that was stewed with excessive force was caught in two and fell apart.He Liu's sharp eyes and quick hands just copied half of the yuan, and the other half was picked up by a spoon. Before it was safely returned to the master's hand, another pair of chopsticks stretched out to hit it, and it was hit thousands of miles away.

"Uncles, take it easy, there are still plenty of dishes..." Mrs. Ding has not been married for a long time, and she is quite used to the appetite of these men and their enthusiasm for grabbing food. She turned back to the kitchen with a smile, and brought out two more. Here comes a big bowl of vegetables.After the group of bachelors were packed to the brim, they slumped at the table rubbing their stomachs and gasping for breath, then they led the maids to clean up the dishes, and one of them brought a bowl of strong tea.

"Siblings and sisters are really virtuous." He Liu sighed contentedly.

"That's—" Ding Bai lifted his chin slightly, showing his pride.In fact, with his salary, it is not difficult to buy three or five maidservants for his wife, so that her ten fingers will not touch the spring water, but she still brings a dowry maid to take care of the house's internal affairs as soon as she enters the house, and hires a group of maids to clean and wash. The mothers-in-law commanded in an orderly manner, and from time to time they took off their fine clothes and put on common clothes to wash their hands and make soup for him.Just like today, if he cleans up such a table of good wine and good food, he will have more face in front of his brothers!

"Have you been to the execution ground today? Have you killed everyone?"

"Kill fifty or sixty of them..." Knowing that He Liu was on duty in the palace all day, Ding Bai couldn't help but gather his energy, and explained in detail, and the people around him also rushed to add.At the end, he added another sentence: "Only the bastard who ruined the woman is still in custody in the county government, but it's coming soon - he can't escape!"

"That's right!"

"Cut him to pieces!"

"First cut that thing, and then beheaded to make amends for our brother!"

There was a moment of chaotic booing that filled the room.Mrs. Ding happened to come in with a teapot, and refilled the water for a group of sloppy elders in the room one by one. After listening to a few words, she smiled and said, "That's not necessarily..."

"Siblings look down on us too much!" Jin Bo raised his brows and before he interrupted, He Liu sat up straight and said in a rough voice: "No one who has committed crimes in the hands of our Xuanjia Guards can escape! "

"If Uncle He's willing to take action, of course that kid can't escape." Mrs. Ding's smile was still gentle and serene, "But I heard from my body that the adults once said that as long as everything is done according to the law, it has nothing to do with Xuanjiawei. If that's the case, then the kid might really be able to get away..."

"impossible!"

"Dare to gamble?"

"Why don't you dare!" Regardless of Jin Bo's coughing and winking, He Liu slapped the table and stood up: "What are you betting on!"

"If Uncle He's wins, I will cook a table of good food for my uncles as I am today. What if Uncle loses the bet?"

"From now on, when we meet you, we won't call you siblings, but sister-in-law!"

"Okay!" Ding Bola didn't even have time to pull, and saw his gentle and cheerful new wife raised her eyebrows and rushed forward.Rolling up his sleeves, stretching out half of Bai Shengsheng's bright wrist, he gave He Liu three high-fives in public!

It took seven or eight days before He Liu told Ling Yucheng as a joke.While talking, he licked his lips. It was a pity that he went late that day and didn't get the first few dishes.

"My lord, you don't know that Lao Ding's daughter-in-law's hand is a coincidence! When the head of that bastard falls to the ground and the Ding family brothers and sisters honor the meal, your lord must reward you..."

In your eyes, a human head is only worth a meal?Ling Yucheng broke into a cold sweat silently, shook his head and said, "You bet that Xia Bai wasn't there that day, right?"

"Not here—"

"Is Jin Bo not here?"

"Jin Bo? That dead money ghost is the worst!" He Liu slammed his fist on the table, "My lord, you can judge for us. Jin Bo dragged his hands on a bet that was clearly a sure win, and later complained that I shouldn't bet on it." Bet! If this bet wins, my lord, you must make the decision for the last general, and when we eat at the table, let him stand aside and watch, and starve him to death!"

"Don't be so sure, you might really have to call someone sister-in-law by then..."

"This... my lord! You can't favor outsiders, my lord!"

"Who is an outsider?" Ling Yucheng raised an eyebrow leisurely, "She is Ding Bai's wife, who is our Xuanjiawei's own. Who do you say is an outsider?"

"Subordinates...subordinates said that damned bastard is an outsider..."

"That? Hehe, I have already said that as long as everything is done according to the law, no matter how it is done, Xuanjiawei will not interfere. Do you want me to break my promise?"

"..."

Mrs. Ding's words came true soon.Ling Yucheng heard that the betting date was two days old, and Xia Bai, who had been following the case, reported to the general: Among the few dudes stopped by the Xuanjia guard that day, the only one who did not commit any crime and was sent home personally took People went to the village, offering gifts one by one, apologizing and interceding.

"The shot is really generous. The young men who were beaten earlier received two taels of silver for their soup and medicine; the ones who were shot later received ten taels of silver each. And the family whose daughter died, sir, guess how much money they gave? "

Ling Yucheng didn't speak, but raised his chin slightly, with an impatient look on his face.Xia Bai knew that this meant "don't talk nonsense, speak quickly", so he didn't dare to hold back any more, so he continued in one breath:

"500 taels of silver for burning and burying! They also said that the youngest daughter of their family is good-looking, and if she wants to take her to be a concubine, the dowry gift is also 500 taels!"

For the daughter of a peasant family, not to mention 500 taels, 50 taels of silver is enough to buy a pair.It seems that the tenants who don't even have their own land, even the Zhuangzi, are good citizens even though their household registration is good.

1000 taels of silver to buy a little girl and a dead man?We want to know pattern of the inside with nostril.

Sure enough, Xia Bai then revealed the inside story: "The buyer only has one request, which is to let the parents say that they saw that the person who came was a nobleman, and let their daughter go up to serve them. The parents were undecided, so they quietly begged to come to the camp to ask ..."

"understood."

"……grown ups?"

"I know about this."

"My lord, don't tell them what to say?"

"Is it necessary? As a member of Xuanjiawei, do we need to worry about being retaliated for telling the truth?"

But what worries me is that they won't tell the truth, my lord!Xia Bai was full of doubts, so he had no choice but to bow silently and withdraw, to pass Ling Yucheng's words back to Zhuangzi.Ling Yucheng thought for a while, put down the half-approved document, and went back to the dormitory to talk to Yuan Shao.

"You're too picky." Yuan Shao shook his head in disapproval after hearing him finish the cause and effect. "A gentleman means righteousness, and a villain means profit. 1000 taels of silver is enough to sell this class of tenants together with their parents and ancestors, let alone a dead daughter-it's just a few acres of land for you. Why do you have to test people's hearts like this? "

"Your Majesty is right." Ling Yucheng's eyes flickered, and he bowed his head slightly.I know my own temperament, the human heart really can't stand the test, as a tenant, there is no need to use the standard of being rich and not being promiscuous-but, he just can't change his temper, and he doesn't want to change it!

Seeing him sincerely admitting his mistakes and resolutely refusing to change, Yuan Shao rubbed his brows with a headache, and continued to criticize:

"It's all right now. It's impossible to take back what you said. What if the family really changes? Who will benefit, you?"

"Isn't it good for His Majesty?"

Yuan Shao was taken aback for a moment, then pointed at Ling Yucheng, shaking his head and laughing.Ling Yucheng straightened his back amidst the laughter, turned his head slightly to stare at his lord, and waited for Yuan Shao's laughter to stop before slowly stretching out his hands, bending his fingers under Yuan Shao's nose one by one:

"First, it's in His Majesty's interest to let His Majesty see how your officials judge the case, whether they will accept bribes, and whether they will be moved by such rhetoric?"

"Let me dig out a bunch of possible corrupt officials, and then open and close my eyes to them?"

"Secondly, let Your Majesty see how your Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple will review, and whether they will turn a blind eye to the actions of the officials below. Isn't it in His Majesty's interest?"

"You... okay. Then there's a third?"

"Third, wouldn't it be in His Majesty's favor to let the elite soldiers who came out to help the Frostwolf Guards die a bunch, and then the dude who caused the trouble was rescued unscathed?"

When these words came out, Yuan Shao's expression suddenly became serious, and he slapped Ling Yucheng's hand hard, and slapped his three-fingered palm directly on the table.This time, what entered his eyes was a pure and warm smile:

"Thank you for your hard work. If that's the case, wouldn't it make people feel that you are wronged?" Obviously, it was the tenants in the village who sold their daughters for glory, but he tossed such a big deal, pulled three armies, and chopped off dozens of heads !

"Officially, who dares to stir up this case? In private, as long as they are discerning, who doesn't know what's going on with this case?"

The pair of monarchs and ministers reached an agreement on this, not to intervene, not to express opinions, and to stay out of the matter and watch the big show with arms folded.After a few days, the county government's verdict came down, because the parents took the initiative to send their daughter in to serve the nobles, so Aletai was not considered to have raped a commoner girl, and the girl's life had nothing to do with him.If the case was not serious, it would have to be reported to Jingzhao for review, and he would be acquitted on the same day.

Annoyed, He Liu came to Ling Yucheng to complain, and when he threatened to dismember the farmer who had received a huge sum of money, he only got a chuckle from Ling Yucheng:

"The common people's affairs should be solved by common people's methods. Let that... well, Ding Bai's newly married wife handle it."

"My lord! I don't want to call her sister-in-law!"

The author has something to say: Ding Bai married a good wife.

Guess how Mrs. Ding will deal with the couple who are blind to money?

Looking at the number of book reviews, I feel so cheated

But looking at the comparison with the click, I suddenly feel that everyone still loves me~~~
