Chapter 34

On June nights, the moon is bright.

Xiangyang City, the streets, the flow of people has been sparse.

Wheel! Wheel!

A carriage, driving fast along the open street, stopped outside the gate of Xiangyang County Government.

The curtain of the carriage door rolled up, and a young man came down first and stood respectfully on one side.

Later, a young man with gorgeous clothes, chin Yin crown, sword eyebrows and lofty appearance stepped down from the carriage. The boy quickly reached into the carriage, took out a one foot long and half foot high sandalwood box, and followed the young man to the front gate of the county government.

"Bang! Bang

There was a knock on the door.

After a short time, the porter of the county government opened the door and looked at the knock.

The young man said with a smile, "I'm Huang Xiao, a native of Yicheng, Nanjun county. He is a student of Ma Yin. I'd like to see the county magistrate if I have something to do. Please pass it on

As soon as he heard that he was a schoolmate of Ma Yin, the porter cheered up and did not dare to neglect him.

The story of Ma Yin has been spread all over the county government, from county officials, county captains, petty officials, to yamen servants and gatekeepers. They all know that Pang Tong killed Ma Yin.

The county magistrate repeatedly prohibited the following people from accepting bribes, which also showed that before Pang Tong was put on trial, no Pang family members or people related to Pang family were seen.

Now a friend of Ma Yin's came. The Porter said in a hurry: "just a moment, young man. I'll report to you immediately."

Huang Xiao nodded and waited quietly.

After a short time, the door opened again. The porter leaned out his head and said with a smile, "young master, I'll see you in the living room in the backyard. Follow me."

Huang Xiao nodded slightly, took out a string of five baht money and handed it to the porter.

This time, the porter was happy.

The porter's eyes turned and said, "to tell you the truth, as long as it's the Pang family, adults will not be seen. In particular, the adult has been pondering over the matter of Ma Yin. He may be a little angry. After seeing the adult, you should be as careful as possible. "

"Thank you very much," Huang Xiao said with a smile

A group of three soon came to the living room in the backyard.

When Ma Yuan saw the visitor, he praised him secretly. What a handsome young man he was. At the same time, he was examining Huang Xiao.

In the face of Ma Yuan, Huang Xiao said: "I've met adults in Huangxiao, huangxue village, Yicheng."

"Sit down!"

When Ma Yuan heard that Huang Xiao was from Yicheng, he showed a smile on his face.

Ma originally came from the Ma family in Yicheng. Although he was an official in Xiangyang County, he was rooted in Yicheng and had a natural liking for Yicheng people.

Huang Xiao sat down and said, "thank you

Ma Yuan asked: "snow village late night visit, can you have something important?"

Huang Xiao replied: "I heard that Ma Yin came to Xiangyang to study, but he was killed by the bully Pang Tong. After knowing this, I also feel sad. Because when I came to Xiangyang early next year, I was also upset by Pang tongdiao. "

"Oh, you too?"

Hearing that Huang Xiao had a similar experience, Ma Yuan had a smile on his face.

In this way, Pang Tong's accusation is more real.

Huang Xiao solemnly said: "it is well known that Pang Tong is unforgiving and arrogant. Now Pang Tong is arrested, and all the students in Yicheng applaud. "

Ma Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, with a trace of pride on his face.

Huang Xiao said: "unfortunately, Ma Yin can't survive. What a pity."

Ma Yuan felt heavy when he heard the speech.

Huang Xiao continued: "my Lord, the arrest of Pang Tong does not mean that Pang tong can be punished. I'm here to visit you for this matter. "

Ma Yuan's eyes narrowed and asked, "what does snow village mean?"

Huang Xiao said, "don't you know the power of Pang family in Xiangyang?"

Ma Yuan's eyes flashed with a sharp color.

As Huang Xiao said, if Pang Jiazhen did it, it would not be easy for Ma to kill Pang Tong. Ma Yuan was just a county magistrate, unable to compete with the Pang family.

Ma Yuan suddenly laughed and said, "now that the snow village has come, I think it must have a complete plan."

Huang Xiao waves his hand and the boy behind him puts the wooden box on Ma Yuan's desk.

Ma Yuan asked, "what does that mean?"

Huang Xiao waved his hand and said, "the magistrate will know as soon as he sees it!"

Ma Yuan opened the wooden box, and in a flash, a burst of jewel was shining. In the box, there are pieces of jewelry and jade, each of which is exquisite.

This box of jewelry is extremely valuable.

At that moment, Ma Yuan's heart was beating.

Too much money!

So much money, too expensive.

Ma Yuan quickly closed the wooden box and asked, "what's your intention?"

In the eyes of Ma Xiao, the name "Huang" is more and more important.

Huang Xiao said: "Pang Tong killed Ma Yin. He didn't account for reason or justice. In terms of the law, Pang Tong will surely die. However, once Pang Degong went to Liu Jingzhou in person, as long as Liu Jingzhou gave an order, Pang Tong would be punished at most and could not be convicted. ""Therefore, we must put an end to this possibility in advance."

"With the prestige of the county magistrate and the influence of the Ma family in Xiangyang, they can't compete with the Pang family."

"If you want to win Pang Tong, you have to rely on external forces."

Huang Xiao's eyes were sharp and said solemnly, "this external force is Cai Shi. Everyone knows that Liu Jingzhou dotes on CAI. Adults just need to let Cai's ears blow in front of Liu Jingzhou, and everything will be OK. "

"The jewels and jades in the box were presented to Cai by the adults."

"As for CAI, I expect to agree."

"First, the Cai family is a woman who loves money and jewelry; second, if the Cai family, the Kuai family, the Pang family and the Huang family in Xiangyang can weaken the Pang family, why not the Cai family?"

Huang Xiao's tone was sharp and said, "Pang Degong could not see Liu Jingzhou, or Liu Jingzhou declined, so Pang Tong would never have another chance."

Ma Yuan said, "it's not easy for you and Pang Tong to pay such a high price."

"My Lord is wrong!"

Huang Xiao shook his head and said, "when I came down to Xiangyang, I was just verbally humiliated by Pang Tong, but the gratitude and resentment were not big. Moreover, the jewels and jades in the box are not owned by the next person, but by other Yicheng students who came to Xiangyang to study. It's just that I'm entrusted to see your excellency. "

After hearing this, Ma Yuan relaxed his guard on his face.

When it comes to the struggle between Xiangyang and Yicheng students, Ma Yuan also agrees with Huang Xiao.

Ma Yuan nodded and said, "I have taken the jewels and jades. Tomorrow, I will find someone to present them to Madame Zhou mu."

That said, Ma Yuan thought that as long as a small part of it is intercepted and converted into money, it is also a lot of money. No one can see what is missing from a box of jewels and jades.

Huang Xiao arched his hand and said, "it's all up to the adults. I just hope that this matter can be completed before Pang Tong's trial. After the trial, Pang Degong first found Liu Jingzhou, which led to Pang Tong's impunity."

Ma Yuan smile, said: "this, you can rest assured."

Huang Xiao said: "it's late at night. Let's have a rest early. Goodbye."

"Take your time, no see off!"

Ma Yuan nodded and watched Huang Xiao leave.

After Huang Xiao got out of the county magistrate's office, he and his entourage got on the carriage and disappeared into the night.
