Jia She, the local tyrant of the Red Chamber

It is said that Jia She led a few children to play in the south of the Yangtze River, and the trip went smoothly without any accidents.It coincides with the warmth of spring and the blooming of flowers, from north to south every day is warm.

After entering Jiangsu, they left the ship and changed carriages.This time I said that it was an ancestor worship, but everyone knew it was a spring outing.In March of Qiayang spring, the grass grows and warblers fly, and flowers bloom everywhere.Jia Shen and Jia Cong, father and son, are illiterate and spoil the beauty all day long; the three children are all poets, and sometimes they write several poems a day.

On this day, I went to Yangzhou first, and I saw that there were so many people in Fu, the bustling market, and a lively scene.Being with a group of young people, visiting places of interest all day long, and telling nonsense stories, Jia She felt that he was much younger.

Back at the inn at night, everyone chatted for a while, washed up and fell asleep, suddenly there was a noise outside, and all the travelers who had just fallen asleep were woken up.

Jia Amnesty stared and asked, "What's wrong?"

He Xizao got up, turned back and forth: "It is said that the officials are hunting for strong men, it seems that someone saw them enter our inn."

Jia Amnesty was shocked! "We have covered the yard, they are not allowed to come in casually!"

He broke out in a cold sweat, and this time he took two girls out, it would be naughty to make a fuss.Especially in the past, I read a lot of novels, and whenever I travel to ancient times, officers and soldiers catch thieves, and I always get some gossip. "Hurry up, let your daughter-in-law go and see the two girls, she might be surprised!"

As soon as the words were finished, Wang En came back and said: "Master, many officers and soldiers came outside our yard, saying that they saw a thief jumping in and wanted to search."

"Fucking shit!" Jia She slammed the bed, "Tell them, I want to impress the grandeur of the country today, whoever dares to come in I will destroy his whole family!"

Wang En took the order and left.

Jia She hurriedly put on the big clothes outside and got up to see the two girls.

After this commotion, the two of them also got up, Zijuan helped Daiyu to the Yingchun room, the two of them were sitting around the candlestick, accompanied by four servant girls.

Seeing that their expressions were acceptable, Jia Amnesty breathed a sigh of relief: "You guys aren't scared, are you?"

Daiyu asked, "Uncle, what's going on outside?"

Jia She snorted and said, "Disturbing the people for no reason." After asking carefully whether he had caught a cold, whether he was afraid, whether he was thirsty or not, and whether he was hungry or not, he waited until He Xi's family invited him outside to invite him out.

It turned out that the soldiers of the governor of Liangjiang were outside, chasing Li San, the leader of the water bandits in Taihu Lake, and finally found him by following the clues. The entire hotel must be searched.

Jia Amnesty's heart flipped: He really asked Li San to meet him on a suitable day a few days ago, could it be that this kid was too careless and made people recognize him from the beginning to the end?But the face was not visible, and he changed into the clothes of the guest.

At this time Jiang Zhao also hurried over.Jia She said: "Good boy, you stay on guard in this corridor, I'll go outside."

Jiang Zhao said, "I'll go with my uncle."

Jia She said: "There must be someone inside. I have something with me, and I can hold it down." After saying that, he strode towards the gate of the courtyard.

As soon as the gate of the courtyard was opened, there was a general in his forties standing in front of him, his face was covered with wind and frost, and his skills were not bad.He clasped his fists at Jia Amnesty: "My lord, please forgive me for not being able to salute because of his armor."

People are polite, and Jia Amnesty is also polite. He waved his hands and said, "You are also doing business because of business, so don't be so polite. I don't like to be too polite. I just tell the general. I brought a female family member. If someone goes in to search, for the sake of reputation." I'm determined not to lose any damage, and it's useless if you say it's going to break the sky."

The general's face darkened: "I'm afraid I will annoy the Duke of the country and forgive the general's rudeness."

Jia She said with a snort, "What if I don't forgive?"

The general said coldly: "The last general has to break through the door."

Jia Amnesty shook his head: "Didn't the general understand what I mean? What I said is, if I don't forgive you for being rude? Have you thought about the consequences? I'm using power to suppress people, didn't you hear clearly?"

The general smiled: "I don't know how many people Rong Guogong brought here."

"You'd better go back and discuss with your boss, and ask your boss what kind of character I am. My Rong Guogong, Jia She, has never reasoned with others." Jia She turned around and took it from the tray in Wang En's hand behind him. A pair of imperial-given Hetian white jade lions rolling ball paperweights, "This is an imperial-given sacred object. You have to break them in the past. This is not a small crime. Who has no opponent? Is it worth paying for a momentary dispute?" "

The general probably never thought that he would make such a rogue move, so he hesitated a bit.

Jia Amnesty went on to say: "Today is nothing more than two results. If you didn't go in, it was a waste of time. That Zhang San ran away, and you can catch him next time. Or you forced your way in, regardless of whether you caught him or not." Zhang San, he offended me, Jia Amnesty, and Jiang Wen, a new Wenyuange scholar who joined the cabinet. Jiang Wen may be kinder, he only repairs you a little bit, and makes you dismissed from office. I am different. Everyone knows me I love my children like my life, and whoever hurts my children, whether intentional or not, black or white, will take revenge to the death. Do you want to weigh up who has more weight in the hearts of the saints, you or me?"

This is a brazen threat.The general laughed angrily: "The Duke wants to test whether our bones are hard?"

"Who has time to care about your bones. I just care about my children's well-being, and I have nothing to do with other people's lives." Jia She said, "It's just that the general thinks clearly, whether your backstage is hard or not, and it's worth hurting the whole family for a moment of anger. It's not worth it, this deal is a good deal. By the way, there is also your boss, don't let him get into trouble."

A person next to him sneered and said, "Master Guo is hiding a thief."

Jia She said with a smile: "So what? Does it matter if there are any culprits in this courtyard?"

The man wondered: "Why is it not important? If there are thieves, please let us take them away. Wouldn't it be good for everyone to live in peace?"

Jia She shook his head: "I've been talking for a long time, don't you understand? What I mean is, no matter whether Zhang San or Li Si has ever entered my courtyard, he must, must, and must have never been near my courtyard. , because there are my family members in the courtyard. The reputation of my family members is ten times more important than your thieves. What is a small thief and how much is it worth! The reputation of my family members is more important than Mount Tai, and the life of that little thief is as light as a feather. If you don't understand, go and discuss with your superiors. Find out whether the reputation of the Rongguo Mansion's female family members is more important, or the life of a small thief. If a small thief hurts the reputation of my family's female family members, I will work together with Junzhi This line of yours will take revenge until you die." After finishing speaking, he turned around and swaggered in without further words.

Probably he spoke too harshly, and finally calmed down the scene.The general was quite hesitant standing at the door, and even the soldiers didn't dare to move.They don't understand the above affairs.

Wang En was clever, and went up quietly and said: "General, don't blame my master for his bad temper. This time I am bringing my young lady, who has promised to the noble family in Beijing early; there is also the eldest daughter-in-law appointed by Mr. Jiang's family. Wife. This reputation is really too heavy. One or two little thieves are nothing, just catch them next time."

The general smiled wryly - Li San became a little thief in their mouths, I don't know how Li San felt.

Suddenly a cheerful child's voice jumped out: "Is there a thief? Is there a thief! I will catch it! Dad! I will help you catch the thief!"

Then Jia She scolded with a smile: "You are so small, don't let the thieves catch you, you will be Amitabha."

The child said with a smile: "Father, you underestimate people! I'm so powerful, I breathed out and said 'Ding', and the little thief stopped moving."

Looking from the door, an eight or nine-year-old boy jumped out of the courtyard, dressed in a red robe, threw himself into Jia She's arms and made a fuss.Jia Amnesty rubbed his back and muttered that it would be bad for him to catch a cold if he was short of clothes.The boy tugged on Jia She's sleeve to catch the thief.Jia She laughed loudly and said, "We don't catch any thieves or thieves. There are no thieves here. Tomorrow, I got up early and exchanged food for a family. Let the little thief hide hungry until we leave."

The general knew it was for himself, and couldn't help but secretly hate it.I tried my best to surround Li Sanwei, knowing that he was inside, but I couldn't go in!He is not a fool, although he doesn't know which nobleman Rong Guogong's daughter has promised, she can't get away from the royal family.Kuang Jiangwen's eldest daughter-in-law is definitely not something they can do.

The person beside him said: "I think that young master can be used."

The general frowned.

Not long after, a young master came out from inside, held Jia Amnesty's hand and talked to him.The two entered the house together, but the courtyard door was not closed.

After a while, the boy sneaked to the door, his eyes were like stars: "Brothers, are you the police?"

A person came out with a smile and said, "Young master, we are soldiers."

The boy said "wow": "Is it the same as Uncle Jiang and Brother Peng?"

The man smiled and said, "We don't know the young master's uncle or elder brother. Does the young master want to catch the thief too?"

The boy nodded again and again: "It's so stubborn to catch a thief! How did you catch it? Do you know martial arts? Do you know Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms? Have you ever practiced the Nine Yin Manual?"

The man said with a smile: "I really can't. If you want to catch a thief, how can you catch it?"

The boy proudly said: "I know! Every time the uncle of Wucheng Bingmasi finds people, he uses dogs! Dogs know smells!"

It is said that the eyes of many people outside are bright!Can't you?Actually forgot this.I heard that since the old year, dogs are often used to catch thieves and find people everywhere.The general couldn't help being overjoyed, and clasped his fists to the boy: "Thank you for your advice, young master!"

On the contrary, the boy felt embarrassed and scratched his head: "This...everyone knows..."

The general smiled, and asked the people at the door to close the courtyard door, and still let the soldiers surround the courtyard.

Wang En rushed out and said: "If the general wants to find dogs to catch thieves, there is no need to surround them with so many people. Anyway, no matter where people go, the dogs can catch them by following the scent. It's hard to say that it is true to spread around our yard like this. That sounds good, please help me, General. In the early years, our Duke also helped Governor Li."

Then the general came to a sudden realization: "The person in Beijing who helped to find our yamen was Rong Guogong? The last general has heard of it. My lord is very grateful."

Wang En nodded and said: "Exactly. Our country is the most helpful on Fair Day, and we also like to meddle in other people's business. What happened tonight is really true... My lady is the master's lifeblood!"

Hearing that it was the noble man in Beijing who had helped Mr. Li, the general's anger eased a lot.Thinking about it, the nobleman's daughter's reputation is more important than life, Nai nodded, said a few words of courtesy, and withdrew the people outside the inn to keep some guards, and led some people to look for the dog.

As soon as he left, Jia Cong hopped back to find his father. "Father, I coaxed the people at the door away!"

Jia She raised her thumbs up: "My Cong'er is awesome! Where's that uncle hiding under your bed?"

Jia Cong said, "It's still under my bed."

Jia She said: "Let him come here quickly."

Jia Cong responded, went back and quietly led Li San over.

Li San was very embarrassed this time, his hair was disheveled and his face was black. When he saw Jia Amnesty, he still laughed and said, "I never wanted to see you like this."

Jia She said with a smile: "It's okay, people always have many shapes to be interesting."

Injean asked him where he came from.

Li Sandao: "A few days ago I went to Gaoyou to do business..."

Jia She interrupted him: "He went looking for a dog, you still have time to chat! Where did you come from?"

Li San hurriedly said: "Climbed a willow tree from the back wall."

Jia She said: "Take your clothes, climb back from the willow tree, turn a few more times under the base of the wall, go anywhere, find another tree in their inn, hang a corner of your clothes on the branch, and then you Slip into the inn kitchen and knock over the vinegar jar."

Li San smiled and said, "I already know what you mean, sir. Don't worry, sir." After saying this, he took the incense clothes that He Xi got and left.

After a long time, the previous general borrowed a dog to chase him, turned around a few times under the wall of Jia She's courtyard, and then ran to another place.They found a piece of clothing under the root of a poplar tree.The dog ran a few more houses, and finally entered the kitchen of the inn.As soon as I entered the kitchen, the room smelled sour. It turned out that the jar of vinegar had been knocked over, and the dog was fumigated and barked for a long time.The soldiers searched the entire kitchen without a trace, and finally found a bag of clothes in a corner.

The general said angrily: "As long as you give him a breath, he will slip away."

He didn't know that Li San was climbing on the beam at that time, and he was very lucky that dogs couldn't climb trees.

The author has something to say: By the way, I don’t know whether dogs can climb trees, anyway, my family can’t.
