The illiterate life in the Northern Song Dynasty

It took Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun about five days to arrive at Wujia Village, of which four and a half days were from Bianliang to Dengzhou, and the other half day was from Dengzhou Prefecture to Wujia Village in Wen County.After arriving at Wujia Village, they spent nearly three days investigating here.

The officials granted Zhou Yun a one-month deadline to complete the investigation.Gathering evidence is actually not that difficult, so January is more than enough.

But since it took them five days to come here, it will still take at least five days to go back. In other words, there is not much time left for them to investigate.Therefore, Zhou Yun planned to go to the county seat after inquiring about the things around Wujia Village clearly.

As long as it is a fraud, evidence will be left. Of course, those evidences are not evidence for the fraudster, such as how much his income is, and what is the source of the income. Those things are all recorded by themselves for viewing and verification, but For those who investigate, that is evidence.

It was that evidence that Zhou Yun wanted to find in Wen County.

If Zhou Yun wanted to leave, Wei Shiyi would naturally not stop him, even if Wu Fei wasn't still here, he would have wanted to go with Zhou Yun.

Turning around, Wei Shiyi also hugged Zhou Yun, saying: "Then be careful and come back early."

"Come back soon?" Zhou Yun's tone seemed a little strange, he stared at Wei Shiyi in the dark, and said, "Aren't you going with me?"

Wei Shiyi was a little surprised, "I want to go too?"

"Of course." Zhou Yun said, "After I have collected all the evidence, I can take you out of Wen County immediately. If you leave late, Ma Cheng may find out."

At the same time, he didn't want to leave Wei Shiyi here alone.

After Wei Shiyi heard this, how could he not know what Zhou Yun was thinking, and couldn't help showing a smile on the corner of his mouth, and replied: "Okay."

So, Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yunbian bid farewell to Wu Fei the next day.But he didn't want Wu Fei to look at them, turn around and close the door, and then handed a booklet to Zhou Yun.Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun opened it with some doubts, and saw that there were many contents written on the booklet, not only that, but also many people's signatures and fingerprints, and the content was nothing else, it was Wei Shiyi these few days. I inquired with Zhou Yun.

Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun were watching there, and Wu Fei explained on the sidelines that although Zhou Yun and Wei Shiyi had inquired more secretly these past few days, maybe they didn't really think about hiding the main purpose of their visit all the time. His behavior was noticed by the people in Wujia Village.

Of course, since they want to investigate and collect evidence, they can't really leave no traces.

Everyone in Wujia Village knew that the two of them were Wu Fei's juniors, so they thought that they came here for Wujiacun, specifically to punish Ma Cheng. They were also very happy that Wu Fei knew such a capable junior, and then the villagers Tell Wu Fei about this.

Wu Fei thought much more than the villagers, and he knew Zhou Yun's true identity, so he thought clearly about the main purpose of Wei Shiyi and the others in the blink of an eye. Wei Shiyi meant to see him, but Zhou Yun... Maybe there is a secret mission, and that secret mission is related to the corrupt officials in Wen County.

Wu Fei asked the villagers to swallow the matter of Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yunlai, and stop talking nonsense. The villagers knew what was good and bad, and they all agreed.Then, Wu Fei did one thing. He wrote down all those words and what Ma Cheng threatened them to do, and then asked the villagers to sign and stamp their fingerprints one by one.

The ones in other villages were not easy to deal with, but he thought of a reason, saying that if Ma Cheng was arrested one day, this would be evidence, and they would be able to vent their anger.

Then, he finished the booklet and planned to hand it over to Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun after they left, and that day would come soon.

Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun were a little surprised, but Wu Fei was quite careful.Because their task could not be stated, they themselves could not record those testimonies, but Wu Fei did it.

Thinking about this, Wei Shiyi sighed slightly and said, "Thank you."

Zhou Yun didn't speak, but nodded to Wu Fei.

With what Wu Fei gave them, they saved a lot of effort.

Wu Fei waved his hand and said with a forced smile, "We should be the ones thanking you. If the horse thief is caught, our life will be much easier."

After taking the brochure, Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun were about to leave, but before leaving, Zhou Yun stopped, turned to look at Wu Fei, and asked, "How much do you know about the magistrate of Wen County?"

Wu Fei was startled, and immediately replied: "I understand."

Zhou Yun nodded, "Then follow us."

Zhou Yun took Wu Fei away for no other purpose than to learn something about Wen County from him. At the same time, Wu Fei could also serve as a cover for Wei Shiyi when he went to investigate.

More importantly, he hoped that Wu Fei could accompany Wei Shiyi, and he would go out alone to inquire about news. If he didn't come back all night, Wei Shiyi would have someone to talk to.

Then, Wu Fei said a few words to Wu Aniang, and then left with Wei Shiyi and Zhou Yun.The people in Wujia Village didn't say anything when they saw it, they all expected Ma Cheng to be arrested.

Although Wujia Village is a rural area, it is actually a rural area on the edge of the county, and the living conditions are not bad. Therefore, it does not take a lot of time to travel from Wujia Village to Wen County.

At noon, with the scorching sun hanging high, in a teahouse on the side of the road outside Wenxian County, three young men with different styles were sitting there, with a teacup in front of each of them, eating the pasta provided by the teahouse. Although the three of them were eating, His eyes looked at the situation around Wen County.

Wen County, in the documents provided to the imperial court, it is written that it is a relatively prosperous county, where everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and is peaceful and peaceful.But at this time, the three teenagers were full of sorrow when they saw the people, and the pedestrians coming and going didn't smile. Only the soldier guarding the city gate smiled happily, and the whole county looked like a monster.

When the three teenagers saw this scene, they all squeezed the food in their hands tightly, with anger in their eyes.

Originally they planned to enter Wen County directly, but it was precisely after seeing this scene that they stopped, intending to see the current situation of Wen County clearly before entering.However, they became more and more angry.

Wei Shiyi was the most angry. No wonder Da Song lost so quickly. With such corrupt officials, how could Da Song be undefeated.

"Zhou Yun, let's eat first, and then settle down after entering the county seat, don't be seen by others." Holding back his anger, Wei Shiyi stretched out his hand and squeezed Zhou Yun's hand to remind him.

Wu Fei also nodded, "Yu...Zhou Yun, let's eat first."

Zhou Yun didn't know the severity, he knew it without Wei Shiyi and Wu Fei reminding him, so he quickly suppressed his expression and returned to normal.

After the meal, a few people went to the city.

When they arrived in the city, Wei Shiyi and the others found an inn to live in. They were ordinary people visiting Wen County. Zhou Yun and Wei Shiyi didn't seem to be poor, so they didn't arouse suspicion. There are also tourists who are related, and Wu Fei is their relative in Wen County.

The three of them stayed in this inn, one room per person, side by side, very convenient.

That night, Zhou Yun acted. Without wasting much time, he sneaked into the Wen County Government Office at night to 'check out'.That's right, before taking action, Zhou Yun had to inquire about the situation of the county government in Haowen County, and at the same time see if he could find out where Ma Cheng put those documents.

After Zhou Yun left, Wei Shiyi woke up, or it should be said that neither Wei Shiyi nor Wu Fei slept. , both of them are here waiting for Zhou Yun's result.

Wu Fei knew a little about Wen County. What he knew was when Wen County would be searched and when he would travel without being found.Zhou Yun determined the time to go out based on the information provided by Wu Fei.

In the room, Wei Shiyi and Wu Fei sat at the table together. The tea they were holding was already cold, and neither of them was in the mood to drink it.

The room was extremely quiet, and the sound of the watchmen outside made it even more apparent that the room was extremely quiet.

Wei Shiyi took a sip of tea, but didn't taste anything, "Senior Brother Wu, Zhou Yun should be able to come back smoothly."

Wu Fei thought for a while, nodded and said: "When I was in Bianliang, I heard that Zhou Yuhou was very powerful in force. If he hadn't been a confidant of the officials, he might have become the instructor of the Imperial Army. In order to save money, those in Wen County The petty officials are all idlers recruited by Ma Cheng from the outside, they must not be Zhou Yuhou's opponents, and he will definitely come back safely."

Hearing what Wu Fei said, Wei Shiyi's worries eased a little.

As long as someone spoke, the room would no longer be so quiet, so Wei Shiyi and Wu Fei talked a lot next.But then Wu Fei asked a very strange question, "Brother Shi, why are you so worried about Zhou Yuhou?"

"Huh?" Wei Shiyi was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Shouldn't I be worried about Zhou Yun? We are together, shouldn't I be worried about him? Besides, this task is so difficult, and worrying is human. It's common sense."

He wouldn't be surprised if he was worried because of the mission, but Wei Shiyi's worry was obviously not just because of that, so he asked such a question, and the answer he got surprised Wu Fei a little.

"Is that really the relationship between you and Zhou Yuhou?"

Wei Shiyi was unclear, "Of course."

Wu Fei was embarrassed, then smiled embarrassedly, and said, "I, I thought it was just pretending to cover up the purpose of the mission."

Wei Shiyi: "..."

Wei Shiyi finally understood why Wu Fei asked that question. It turned out that after Wu Fei knew their real purpose today, he thought their words were just to cover up. Therefore, Wu Fei felt that he and Zhou Yun were not real. that kind of relationship.

This... Wei Shiyi almost couldn't help laughing, if Wu Fei wasn't so embarrassed, he would really laugh.

At this moment, Zhou Yun finally came back.
