There's A Beauty

Those who fall into bandits are generally strong young men.They ran away, but their parents, brothers, wives and children still stayed at the foot of the mountain. They could not contact them blatantly. They could only sneak back in the middle of the night to send some money and food.If the government investigates closely, maybe they won't see each other for three to five years.

Isn't the reason why they put their heads on their belts and do these shady jobs so that their relatives can live a good life?However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't withstand the oppression and exploitation of local officials. When natural disasters came, they filled their pockets with relief money and resold food at high prices. The people had only two options: drowning or starving to death.

Therefore, there was a tragedy in which the officials of all counties in Lishui Prefecture were wiped out by bandits, but no one came to commit crimes in Suichang.Because the bandits used to be good citizens, and they had relatives and friends. Seeing their relatives and friends fleeing to Suichang one after another and finding a way to survive, how could they be unhappy and grateful?

Later, the magistrate of Suichang County was in charge of disaster relief throughout Lishui Prefecture, but within a month, the displaced people had their homes and the submerged villages were rebuilt.They often stand on the top of the mountain and look at their hometown. Seeing the calm and peaceful scene below, the cattle are slowly moving, the rice seedlings are green, and the smoke is curling up, and they have mixed feelings in their hearts.

They really want to put down their weapons, pick up their hoes, and return to their hometown to reunite with their relatives, but they are afraid that their past experiences will be found out by the government and their innocent people will be implicated, so they have to stay on the mountain.However, their love for their loved ones cannot die, their wish for a better life cannot be extinguished, and their respect and love for Xiao Zhao County Magistrate are also indispensable.

The bandit dressed as a Confucian scholar was originally a scholar, and he had a good impression of scholars, not to mention that his ancestral home was Lishui, his parents, wife and children survived safely with the help of the county magistrate Xiao Zhao, and the tens of acres of fertile land taken away by the house slaves of the prefect Wang had also disappeared. Return, just need to operate seriously for a few years, and the good days will come again.He admired Xiao Zhao county magistrate very much, and often publicized his deeds to a group of brothers, making them both yearn and sigh.

Now, the legendary Bodhisattva-like figure is in front of them, how can they not be surprised?Immediately, everyone gathered around and took a good look.

The first impression is that he is thin and weak, but his appearance is as gentle as the breeze, raining everything, and he is worthy of being a parent who feeds a place; The ghost of the champion; the third impression is simplicity, all the luggage is not worth much money, and it is said that he donated all his net worth to resettle the victims, which seems to be true.

These bandits have been rampant in the mountains for many years. What kind of people have never seen them?Not to mention wealthy businessmen, there are not a few officials who have been robbed by them, and the gold and silver treasures found can be piled up into a small mountain.But it was the first time I saw an official like Xiaozhao county magistrate who had such a clean sleeve.

"Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times, and seeing it is better than hearing a hundred times!" The Confucian scholar put away the official seal, bowed to You Shuna.He never expected that this young man who would fall when the wind blows is actually the blue sky above the heads of the people of Lishui, and the sun and the moon in their hearts.There is no need to check, just look at him and his luggage, and you will know that none of the rumors in the market are lies, and none of them are exaggerated praises.He is far more honest and impartial than they imagined.

"Xiao County Magistrate Zhao, how can you get to the capital with this little money?" After paying his respects, he rearranged the package and said worriedly.

"It really is Xiaozhao county magistrate! Oh, this is really flooding the Dragon King Temple! I will apologize to you on behalf of my brothers, please don't blame me!" The bandit leader also knew a few words, after reading the guide, he immediately Kneel down.Everyone also threw away their weapons and kowtowed, all with expressions of gratitude on their faces.Most of them were originally from Lishui, and their wives, children, and children all depended on the county magistrate Xiao Zhao to survive the flood safely.It is no exaggeration to say that anyone from Lishui is a loyal supporter of County Magistrate Zhao, willing to go through fire and water for him.

Youshu was very embarrassed, and while waving her hands to refuse, she slipped into the arms of King Yama who was holding her, which made the other party happy.

The bandit leader got up and quickly explained, "Xiao Zhao county magistrate, all the bandits colluding with the government have been wiped out by the imperial army. Those of us who stayed were once good citizens, and the imperial envoys are preparing to recruit us. We only rob, not kill, and only rob Wealthy businessmen and officials don’t harm civilians. Keep some of the looted things for your own use, and give the rest to the poor people at the foot of the mountain. We’re robbing the rich and giving to the poor, don’t get me wrong!”

"Yes, yes!" The bandit dressed as a Confucian scholar immediately interjected, "If you hadn't walked with the landlord Lao Cai behind, we would not have stopped you! Your money is obviously not enough, let us add some more to you! "

Seeing that this group of vicious bandits wanted to give him money in turn, and planned to send a few people to send him to Beijing, Youshu quickly refused, and was almost carried out of the forest in the end.The landlord Laocai entrusted his blessing, and he also kept fifty-six out of ten of the property, otherwise he would have to dig tree roots to eat along the way.

Only then did the coachman realize that he was escorting County Magistrate Zhao, and he wiped his tears and said excitedly, "Oh, old man, I don't know what kind of virtues I have accumulated in my previous life, but I am lucky enough to send County Magistrate Xiao Zhao to Beijing! When my grandson grows up next year Well, I'll tell him, don't look at your grandfather, I'm just a mud leg, and I drove a bullock cart for Xiaozhao county magistrate back then, hahaha..."

King Yan Luo also laughed lowly, his heart filled with secret pride.Youshu, on the other hand, blushed and looked very embarrassed.

Knowing that it was Xiao Zhao County Magistrate who he had neglected, the landlord Lao Cai immediately sent 200 taels of silver to him after passing through the bandit's den, and he was returned as a matter of course.It's not easy for these wealthy households, especially those with no family background. If the higher-ups don't like it, a single word can ruin your family.A while ago, Xiao Zhao County Magistrate even sent officials to ask him for tens of thousands of taels of silver, saying that it was a part of the money collected by Prince Li for his birthday.

As a result, Prince Li died suddenly, and the money was not returned. He thought it was embezzled by the county magistrate Xiao Zhao, but he actually bought a lot of grain for disaster relief. A charity list was posted on the back, and all the landlords who contributed money The names of the noble gentry are all written on it, so that the people can look up to them.The new emperor felt that the people of Suichang, rich and poor, were in the same boat and overcame difficulties together. He specially wrote many plaques of "House of Benevolence and Kindness" and presented them to the gentry in recognition.

The landlord Lao Cai has no background in his family, so he has never met the county magistrate, and can only deal with the subordinate officials below him. He is quite exploited on weekdays, and his life is miserable.In order to get on the line with his superiors, he pooled the most money and received the most rewards, so he naturally became famous in the Dayong business circle.This time the new emperor reorganized the internal affairs, resigned all the previous imperial merchants, and prepared to replace a new batch, so he also got an invitation letter.

In the final analysis, it is all thanks to the blessing of County Magistrate Zhao that he can have today's glory. He was ashamed and grateful when he was blackmailed at the beginning.Knowing that the county magistrate Xiaozhao is really honest, he no longer dares to send money, but only cooks a few good dishes every day and sends them over.

To be honest, to be able to go on the same road as Xiao Zhao County Magistrate, he really has accumulated virtue in his previous life and done good deeds in this life, so he has such good luck.From Lishui to the capital, not to mention the long and tortuous road, we also passed many places where bandits were rampant, but as long as the coachman stood on the shaft and shouted, "Can the hero in front of you come to the capital, this is Xiaozhao County Magistrate of Suichang Shangjing." report", the bandits would step aside one after another, and some would even take the initiative to offer silver taels when they saw that they were easy to do.

It can be seen from this that the county magistrate Xiao Zhao is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

After getting along with him all the way, Lao Cai, the landlord, realized more and more that the real Xiao Zhao county magistrate is tens of millions of times better than the rumors.He never used power to overwhelm others, let alone extravagance and waste, and lived a very poor life.After the news that he went to Beijing to report on his work spread, it was unknown how the people in Lishui would cry.

This is the last post station before entering Beijing, and it will take another two hours to reach the capital tomorrow.You Shu finished dinner and went back to her room. As usual, she took off her clothes and jumped into the barrel to take a bath.King Yan Luo first checked the doors and windows, and set up a defensive circle on them. Only Youshu was allowed to enter and leave, and no one else could enter without his password. Then he sat on a chair by the window, quietly admiring the picture of a beauty bathing.

Undoubtedly, this is his greatest benefit and the most anticipated time of day.

Youshu is thin-skinned and values ​​love and righteousness. Knowing that the other party follows her all the time to protect her own safety, she has no complaints, but is very grateful.As for the little inconvenience in life, Renren will pass.He was embarrassed to wipe himself in front of King Yama, so he carried it on his back and poured water on the top of his head.

The white mist was transpiring in the room, making him foggy and moist, and his skin, which was already as white as jade, now revealed a peach-pink color, looking fresh and delicious.He didn't know that at this time, Yama, who was originally intimidating, would show a forbearing expression.

At first, he would cover his reacting body with his heavy robe and try to sit still.But Xiao Zhao County Magistrate is really annoying, knowing that there are bystanders in the house, he still touches here and flirts there, which makes him burn with desire and almost collapse.After being seduced twice by County Magistrate Zhao without needing to be comforted, he slowly began to indulge and indulge in it, enjoying it.

He flicked his sleeves first, making the windows make a slight noise, and when Xiao Zhao county magistrate looked back, he used magic to trigger the token on his waist, making it glow brightly, and finally disappeared, pretending that the underworld had something to do and he needed to go back to deal with it look like.

In recent days, Youshu has figured out the pattern, and King Yama will leave every time this time comes.Thinking about it, the work and rest time of the underworld and the yang world are completely reversed. He protects himself during the day and always has a lot of official business to deal with at night.

"You know, you are my only friend and my best friend." You Shu lay on the edge of the tub and muttered to herself, with a somewhat lonely expression on her face.He has long been used to the other party's company. If the other party hadn't been protecting him all the time, he would have lived in a black shop several times and was almost turned into a human meat bun.

This friendship became more and more important with the passage of time, and the status of the other party in his heart became higher and higher, second only to the master.He thought that he would never have another friend as strong and kind as King Yama.

When he was full of emotions, he didn't know that his "good friend" was standing by the bathtub, staring at him with dangerous and burning eyes.

The definition of a good friend is obviously not what Yan Luowang wanted, but he was pleased by the word "only", so he couldn't help but chuckle.He propped his hands on the edge of the bathtub. At first glance, he seemed to be embracing Xiao County Magistrate Zhao in his arms. Then he slowly lowered his head, smelling his body fragrance mixed with wet water vapor, along the top of his hair to his ears, On the side of the cheeks, and finally stay on the pink lips for a long time.

He opened and closed his lips slightly, wanting to kiss, but tried his best to hold back. He could only silently feel the scorching sensation from Xiao Zhao County Magistrate's body temperature on his skin, and the apex of his heart trembled.The feeling is so strong just through the air, if you really pry open the gap between his teeth and intertwined with his slippery tongue, what kind of thrilling taste will it be?

The deeper he thought, the more painful his lower body became, and he had to move elsewhere.He smelled the round shoulders along his neck, and when the water droplets from the hair fell into the collarbone, he grasped a gap, and imprinted a light kiss like butterfly wings.

Youshu felt a cool air slowly moving over her body along the top of her hair, cheeks, and neck, and she couldn't help getting goosebumps all over her body, especially when the water dripped from her hair onto her shoulders, it seemed like an ice bead fell , He shivered from the cold.He hastily scooped up a ladle of water and poured it over his head, which made him feel better.

King Yan Luo smiled silently, and after kissing his left shoulder, he switched to his right shoulder, wherever the water dripped from his hair, it would leave a cold mark there.It was his favorite game, and he enjoyed the moment, privately and joyfully.But he wouldn't let Xiaozhao county magistrate freeze, and he would use spells to heat the water when it was getting colder.

Youshu felt chilly all over, so she had to pour water one after another, and then a series of cold water droplets fell on her skin.Fortunately, the temperature of the water in the bucket is suitable, and the cold will be quickly driven away, thus avoiding the danger of catching a cold.He soaked for about three quarters of an hour, then reached for the bath towel on the edge of the tub, but accidentally knocked it to the ground.

"Why did you drop it again?" He muttered to himself while leaning over to pick it up. The tub was so high that he had to stand on tiptoes as much as possible when lying on top of it, and pouted his buttocks to expose his most secret parts.

But the real culprit who knocked the bath towel off was standing behind him, staring at his smooth back and straight buttocks with deep and unpredictable eyes, hanging his fingertips on his round mounds, slowly sketching the An alluring arc, then moves along the line of the spine until it pauses in the dimple of the neck.

King Yama spread his five fingers, as if he wanted to grab the man by the back of the neck, drag him into his arms and kiss him frantically, but he restrained himself in the end.He walked back to the window again, waiting for his fiery body and heart to calm down.When Xiao Zhao County Magistrate climbed into bed and was about to fall asleep, he released the invisibility technique, and naturally leaned against his side.

Youshu was used to King Yama's elusive presence, and when she found that there was suddenly another person beside her, she didn't even frown, but was very relieved.He rolled up the quilt, silently said good night, and fell asleep heartlessly.

King Yan Luo waited for a while before kissing his smooth forehead, and said good night in a low voice.He doesn't need to sleep, he can watch this person all night, watch him, help him tuck his quilt, drive away mosquitoes, and wait for the sky contentedly.

The next day, Youshu and the landlord Lao Cai met on the road, and arrived in the capital just in time for noon.Seeing that the city gate was ten meters ahead, Yan Luo Wangxu patted Xiao County Magistrate Zhao's soft hair and disappeared into the air.

"Sure enough, they came here to escort me." Although she had guessed it a long time ago, at the moment of confirmation, Youshu still felt warm in her heart, indescribably warm and moved.He climbed onto the shaft of the car, set up a pergola and looked at the majestic city tower, full of anticipation for this trip.

Maybe the master is inside, and we will see him soon, provided that he is transferred to a senior official who can go to court.The chances are slim, but not hopeless.Youshu clenched her fists with a firm expression.

After checking the road guide and submitting the entry fee, You Shu and his party were let in.The landlord, Laocai, sincerely invited Xiao Zhao County Magistrate to live in his home temporarily, and said that the rent in the capital is very expensive, and the simplest small courtyard costs seven to eighty taels of silver a year.

Youshu didn't intend to bother anyone, so she waved her hand and refused.It's very simple for him to rent a cheap house. He only needs to walk around the capital and look for places that are particularly haunted. Ten taels of silver is more than enough to rent for a year.

The landlord Lao Cai was not willing to let him go, so he immediately stepped forward to pull him.At this moment, a middle-aged man with thin body and dark skin slowly ran over.He looked very anxious, but he couldn't move his legs and feet anyway, and his figure was staggering as if he was about to fall at any time. However, after a distance of ten meters, he was panting like a cow when he ran close, sweating profusely, and extremely tired up.

"Please, please stay! Are you Zhao Youshu?"

"Who are you?" Youshu looked at him fixedly, feeling very familiar, and immediately searched in the memory of "Zhao Youshu", and suddenly realized.Isn't this the second uncle who took away "Zhao Youshu"'s property?Why are you so thin now?I think that when "Zhao Youshu" left Beijing to take office, he was still big and round, very strong.It's only been a year and a half now, and it's already broken and out of shape.

"I'm your second uncle! Youshu, hurry up, go back with your second uncle, there's a banquet waiting for you at home!" The man said while grabbing him, for fear that the other party would run away.

"Second uncle, long time no see." Youshu has experienced so much wind and rain, her temper has become much gentler, she bowed her hands slightly, and said nothing about her past grievances.

Seeing that the visitor was really a relative of Xiao Zhao County Magistrate, Lao Cai, the landlord, had to leave regretfully.

Youshu sees that the second uncle's appearance is different, and he forced his mental power to take a closer look with his eyes, and he was shocked.The opponent wore a pair of huge shackles around his neck, as well as shackles on his wrists, ankles, etc., like a prisoner.No wonder he was out of breath and tired after walking a few steps.

This is obviously a method used by King Yama to deal with living souls who have committed evil. Could it be that he came to pick me up today because he was instructed by King Yama?Thinking about it this way, Youshu was not worried that her second uncle would be unfavorable to her, so Shi Shiran followed.He didn't tell anyone about his return to Beijing to report on his duties. Logically speaking, no one would greet him at the gate of the city, and he even hosted a banquet for him. It can be seen that he had already heard the news.

As for where the news came from, it must be the underworld, right?Anyway, you will know after you go there.

The two stopped and walked, stopped and panted, and finally arrived at a courtyard with three entrances.This was originally the home of "Zhao Youshu". After the death of his father and mother, he was taken over by his second uncle, who poisoned him and made him seriously ill. He was sent to his hometown in the countryside to be raised in a fair manner, which made him live a hard life .If it weren't for the kind-hearted people of the tribe, who never looked on coldly, he would have starved to death long ago.

Looking up at the plaque with the words "Zhao Mansion", even if you didn't personally experience the happy and prosperous childhood of "Zhao Youshu", Youshu felt a bit of embarrassment.He stood at the door and watched for a long time before going in under the urging of his second uncle. As soon as he went around the second door, he saw a middle-aged woman who was also thin and staggered to meet him.

Seeing the other party's heavy steps and sweaty expression of pain, Youshu didn't need to check mentally to know that she was also wearing shackles and buckled the shackles.

"Nephew, you are finally back. Please come in quickly, there is a banquet waiting for you." The woman said eagerly.

Youshu nodded, walked in slowly, and saw a young man five or six years older than herself sitting at the table with a pale complexion.This person is the only legitimate son of Erfang, the cousin of "Zhao Youshu", Zhao Youcai.The second room forcibly seized the property of the big house in order to donate an official position to him.

Before "Zhao Youshu" was the No. [-] scholar in high school, he had already donated to the official doctor of the fifth rank, which was considered to be the highest rank among the official titles that could be donated, and the amount of money he spent was at least seventy to eighty thousand.However, the second house is a concubine, and has neither land nor shop to make a living. Life is tight, so how can there be tens of thousands of taels of savings?Thinking about it, I knew that Dafang's property must have been raided.

At that time, although "Zhao Youshu" was in high school, she only got an errand as a seventh-rank county magistrate, and she had no money or connections.

The once high-spirited cousin is now like a defeated rooster, showing a look of depression and indignation, how can Youshu not be confused?He checked with mental strength, and saw that the shackles and shackles worn by the other party were larger and heavier than those of his parents. Roughly estimated, at least one or two hundred catties.No wonder he drooped his head and shoulders on the table. It turned out that he didn't mean to give his cousin a bad impression, but he couldn't walk at all.

Seeing Youshu who arrived as expected, his eyes flickered slightly, and the veins on his forehead twitched, as if he was very frightened.

"You really entered the city today." The voice of this sentence was very low, but Youshu listened to it seriously.From this point of view, someone really told them their itinerary, and they had to go to meet them.

Just imagine, after taking away someone else's property, are you willing to let the other person hang around under your nose, you must wish to get rid of it and hurry up, right?But this family came to find themselves in a hurry. There was nothing tricky about it, and Youshu would not believe it even if he killed him. It was also related to the shackles and shackles on them. It is self-evident who is behind the scenes.

Youshu believed that the other party would not hurt her, so she came here unprepared. After sitting down, she cupped her hands and said, "Cousin, don't come here without any harm."

"Just come back, and take away your property, and write me a reconciliation letter, forget about it, we will never see each other." Zhao Youcai said straight to the point.

Youshu lowered her eyes, her heart was sure.
