Xiao Houye's seven-year imperial examination and five-year road to Kaifeng[75]

Bai Yutang was shut down by his brothers, it was too miserable, and he was not the only one who was taken away, why did he have to suffer this!

But he didn't dare to start a fire. Among the three people who were taken away, he was the only one who knew martial arts, so he couldn't refute...

Blame that Ma Qiang!Make him ashamed!

Bai Jintang and the others seldom come to Qiantang, and they only heard about Ma Qiang. They knew that a Bawangzhuang was built here. In fact, in the world of Jianghu, there are quite a lot of villas and buildings. Domineering, really unheard of.

After all, everyone in the Jianghu must abide by the rules of the Jianghu. In addition, the imperial court has been strict in the management of the Jianghu these years, but not too much, so everyone acquiesces in such management.

It's not that they want to rebel, of course it's up to those with strong force.

No matter how high the force value of the people in the rivers and lakes is, can they be compared with the army of the imperial court?Anyone with a long brain knows that this is impossible.

What's more, people like Bai Jintang and Lu Fang have had contact with Pang Yu and are willing to contact Pang Yu. They want to support the idea of ​​working for the welfare of Baixin like Pang Yu.

This is why people in the Jianghu within their sphere of influence are relatively cooperative.

In other places, most of them have to learn some lessons before they are willing to be honest. Those who have seen the strength of Zhao Jue's people will not look for such bad luck.

Especially those who have seen how Zhao Jue drove out people from the neighboring countries of the grassland, and even occupied a large area of ​​land, as long as they cooperate with each other, almost all of them will be killed. I have seen how powerful Zhao Jue is. , Unless it is tired of work, who would dare to provoke such an army.

That is to say, Bai Yutang is more presumptuous, while Bai Jintang and others are usually more cautious when they see Pang Yu. They are not children, and Pang Yu is not something ordinary people can treat casually regardless of his status in the court or Zhao Jue's concubine.

Pang Yu likes Bai Yutang's temper, he is more casual, he is not a scourge, so he should be treated with such caution?

But it's not easy for him to say anything to others, since he fell in love with Zhao Jue, he had already foreseen all of this, as a member of the royal family, it is different after all.

Even in later generations, there are fewer so-called royal families, but they still give people a sense of mystery and inexplicable longing for the royal family.

What's more, it is still an ancient world of imperial power. In fact, Pang Yu thinks that the people of the old Zhao family are still very close to the people, but outsiders don't think so.

The busiest part of this half month is the members of the newspaper office and the secret guards. They have to lurk in the dark to investigate and register all suspicious outsiders.

If you don't investigate, you don't know. Just counting it like this, there are actually hundreds of people lurking in this city, and the number is even increasing.

They all come from all directions, but their purpose is probably for the one in the prison. He doesn't know what to say, what a good bait, so many fish are hooked, but he doesn't know what's inside. There is no big fish hiding.

This time, the opponent was very cautious. In order not to expose his identity, he chose this troublesome and difficult method.

Pang Yu was very patient. As for Ma Qiang, he was not too sad in prison, after all, there were people he bribed.

This person was also on the list of secret observations, and they didn't want to startle the snake mainly because they wanted to see whether this person was a hidden stake or was simply bribed.

"It's so boring. Why don't these people come here?" Bai Yutang squatted on the roof, and Zhan Zhao who was at the side glanced at him, knowing that the child was bored.

"What are you looking at me for?" Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao looked at each other, and said with disgust, "When my brother talked about me, you didn't help me."

"Brother Bai is right this time." Zhan Zhao said affirmatively.

"What?" Bai Yutang looked in disbelief, Zhan Xiaomao didn't help him? !

"Look, you're in a hurry again." Zhan Zhao said helplessly.

"I'm not in a hurry." How could Bai Yutang admit it, just kidding, he is Fifth Master Bai!

"Okay, you're not in a hurry, but you made too many mistakes in the past, even if Big Brother Bai doesn't talk about you, I still want to talk about you." Zhan Zhao continued.

"About me?" Bai Yutang's eyes widened with disbelief.

"You are obviously the only one among the three who knows martial arts, and you have no vigilance at all. Pang Yu, a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, is not dizzy." What Zhan Zhao said, Bai Yutang really couldn't refute.

It's hard to admit that he is young and has no experience in the world, does he want to lose face?

"Why did you get rid of the guards?" Seeing that he didn't answer, Zhan Zhao couldn't help asking.

"It's inconvenient to take a group of people out, let them hide in the crowd, who would have thought it would be so unlucky." Bai Yutang only felt that he was not vigilant, but too unlucky.

But after he came back, he also had a self-criticism. You must know that Pang Yu let him run away. He is a man of martial arts, and he let a scholar who has no power to protect him, so shameful.

"You know I was almost scared to death by you." Zhan Zhao touched Bai Yutang's head and said.

"Master, I'm not a vegetarian. They can't do anything to me." Bai Yutang slapped off someone's hairy paws, what to touch, don't you know that a man's head can't be touched? !

"Fortunately, you're fine." Zhan Zhao could only say luckily, Bai Yutang was young and inexperienced, if Pang Yu hadn't noticed something was wrong and asked Bai Yutang to let them run first, he couldn't have imagined what would have happened.

No matter what kind of result, it is not something he can bear.

If Pang Yu was injured, then Zhao Jue would definitely not be able to let it go. The madness in this man's eyes, if not for Pang Yu's restraint, would have been released long ago.

I didn't see that the number of hidden guards around Pang Yu doubled this time, and there were even two more maids serving him, mainly for shifts.

Pang Yu was speechless and wanted to roll his eyes. This time his prince was frightened, so he didn't say anything, mainly because of a guilty conscience.

After returning, Zhao Jue didn't pay much attention to him for two days.

Alas, he would rather his prince say a few words about him, but unfortunately, this guy just doesn't open his mouth.

So Pang Yu can only be good, what can he do, first coax his prince well.

By the way, throw the blame to Ma Qiang and others to divert the attention of his prince, so there is no time to be angry with him.

In fact, not to mention that this trick is completely useless, it still has some effect. How could it be so easy to forget the grudge of taking his fat head fish away!

Zhao Jue has already sent people to investigate all the members of Ma's family, and all those who are not clean and have not given five clothes have been arrested.

Ma Chaoxian, who is far away in the capital, has been arrested at this moment, and is no longer able to rescue his beloved nephew.

Until the moment he was caught, he never thought that it was his nephew who betrayed him.

The main reason is that it is useless to say it too early before he reveals useful information.

It's a pity that there are not many people in the Ma family who know about this matter, but not all of them are clean. After being an official for a long time, no one has broken the matter. People like Ma Chaoxian are obviously not clean.

When he was arrested, he also thought that he was caught for embezzlement. In this dynasty, the amount is not considered significant. Just spit out the embezzled money and lock him up for a few years. If you still have money, you can redeem yourself.

If the amount is huge, I'm sorry, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped.

That Ma Chaoxian quickly handed over all the money he was greedy and the account book, but it turned out that he didn't check this matter at all.

However, the money still had to be confiscated, and when it was carried to the officials for review, the officials almost laughed angrily, for such a high salary has raised such a bunch of moths.

All of them are more extravagant than him, making him thrifty like a joke.

That is to say, if his queen is by his side to comfort him, it is better to have a wife!

Especially when he heard that his brother-in-law and his aunt were kidnapped, Pang Feiyan almost fainted.

The person who reported was almost kicked out by the officials, so he hurriedly called the imperial doctor, but the imperial doctor told him that he was overjoyed, and was actually pregnant.

It's only been a few months since they got married, and they got pregnant so soon. The officials are more worried that they will be beaten by their uncle, after all, their uncle told him to take it easy.

However, with Pang Feiyan's current physical condition, pregnancy itself is not a problem. If she hadn't been surprised this time, she wouldn't have such a big reaction.

Under the worried eyes of the officials, the imperial doctor prescribed some anti-fetal medicine. In fact, it is better not to take the medicine.

Pang Yuyuan was in the south, and he didn't even know that he was going to be an uncle. After all, according to Yuan's memory, his sister had never been pregnant, and the official family didn't have many children.

At this time, it was almost the Chinese New Year, and Ma Qiang was originally going to be executed, because it was a Chinese New Year, and he was afraid that seeing blood would be unlucky, so he was not moved for the time being, and the main thing was to return the treasure that Ma Qiang had robbed for many years to the people.

The Qiantang in those few days was unusually lively, and the queue was quite long. In fact, they had already been received at the Yamen before, and this time they just came to pick up things with a number plate.

No way, just digging out the exact stolen goods from those things is not an easy task.

After searching like headless flies for more than ten days, I finally sorted out some, divided them into five tables, and then the number plates were called by five people, and the person who got the number came to identify the thing. go home.

During the whole process, he tied the horse to the pillar, let him see the treasure he snatched with his own eyes, and just returned it like this, which almost didn't make the kid out of his heart.

It's a pity that his mouth was gagged, and he couldn't yell even if he wanted to. He saw the boxes full of treasures being emptied little by little behind the five people.

Anyway, those who have something will return it to others, and those who don’t have it will be given the equivalent amount of money. There are also some who have not come to claim it. Some gold and silver paper money.

There was still a lot of money left, so he bought land, built academies, etc., and Pang Yu personally used some to build bridges and pave roads.

If resentment could be seen, I'm afraid this place is already full of resentment, especially those who have died, the main reason is that it is too miserable.

If Ma Qiang is not killed, it will be difficult to eliminate public grievances. As for the former magistrate who was the accomplice, he will also be punished with death.

He is no longer just a crime of embezzlement. It is definitely impossible to help Na Ma forcefully press those things without any means.

Moreover, the former magistrate had defended Ma Qiang for many years, and Pang Yu would not be able to breathe if he were not chopped off.

He is obviously an official sent by the court to protect the people, but what has he been turned into!
