In the twinkling of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month. Tian Yuqiao's family had planned to go to the town to see the lights. As a result, as soon as they were going out, they heard the copper bell ringing at the entrance of the village.

The villagers didn't know what had happened, so they all gathered around.

That bell is the rhythm of "three long and two short", which shows that something big has happened in the village. Everyone put down their work and ran out to watch the excitement.

"Everyone, I'm almost here, so I won't be wordy. You must remember that there was a fight on the South Mountain..."

All the people around whispered at the bottom when they heard the speech:

"Last time I heard that many people died. No wonder the wolf howling on the Tianshan Mountain was so frightening."

"That's not why. Our little grandson didn't sleep well that night and cried all night."

"Last time, the officers and soldiers pulled away a lot of bodies from the mountain. Oh, I was so scared that I didn't dare to open the door."

Seeing the confusion, the village head coughed and said, "be quiet, you all be quiet. This time I heard that there was a fight between the two sides on the Nanshan Mountain, and a big man died. I just received a notice from the county that the imperial court wanted to send someone to investigate this matter. Let the people in our village be careful, but don't make trouble at this time."

"Village head, don't worry. We will take good care of our children."

"Yes, village head, we're not free to go out and walk around."

Seeing that the villagers had agreed, Wang Heng smiled and nodded. At this time, Fang Wenhao was also in the crowd. He naturally knew the "big man" mentioned in the mouth of the village head Fang Cai. He should mean the twelve princes of the current dynasty?

Hehe, I didn't expect the imperial court to send people to investigate so soon. You know, it takes a month and a half to go back and forth from here to the imperial city? It seems that his father still loves him very much. He is so popular.

Wang took several children and happened to meet Gao on his way back.

"Oh, my second brother and sister, are you wearing a pure silver hairpin? Tut Tut, it's really different. It's estimated that this one is worth several liang of silver?"

Seeing that Wang's face was a little embarrassed, Tian Yuqiao quickly stepped forward and came to the middle of the two men. He smiled back and said to Gao: "aunt, is the silver for selling pork five Liang or six liang?"

As soon as Gao heard this, he didn't want to continue to discuss the problem of the silver hairpin on Wang's head, but picked up his pace. This time she sneaked out to watch the excitement. When she came back late, she was found by Li, and she had to be scolded again.

Three days later, I saw Yuanji outside running back in a panic and immediately closed my door.

"Mom, no, the officers and soldiers are coming." Yuanji said with lingering fear.

The group of people all rode tall horses. It seemed that they saw someone along the way. They all felt like they killed the "noble man". Fortunately Yuanji ran fast, otherwise I'm afraid I won't come back.

"Didn't you go up the mountain to see Zhou lame? How could you meet officers and soldiers?" Tian Yuqiao wondered.

"There is more than one way up the mountain. They went up the mountain from another way. Maybe they knew that Nanshan Temple was the scene of the incident, so they surrounded there. Fortunately, Zhou lame was injured, so he was not caught and tortured. Fortunately, I ran fast, or I might be caught. Several villagers who went up the mountain to cut firewood were taken away by the officers and soldiers."

After Yuanji finished, Wang was also a little flustered, because after all, the Nanshan Temple was where he lived before, and now his home is so close to Nanshan. I don't know whether the officers and soldiers will come home to catch people.

When Wang thought of this, he recklessly plugged in the door and locked the people in the house. She called all the children into her own room and put them on the Kang. Then she hugged them like an old hen who just hatched chickens.

Tian Yuqiao couldn't help laughing and comforted: "Mom, you don't have to be so nervous. We weren't there when the accident happened that day. When we found someone fighting, it was over. And I think the Uncle Xu we saved at that time should also be a good man. He shouldn't embarrass us."

"Oh, that's hard to say. What if he didn't come here this time, but someone else brought him? Also, the childe may have offended some big people in the imperial court. If his enemy came here this time and knew that we saved his people, he would be annoyed by us."

Tian Yuqiao did not expect that Wang, a rural woman, could think so long.

"Mother, don't worry, we will be fine." Tian Yuqiao then comforted.

Fang Wenhao said coldly at this time: "I'm not from the village. I'll go out and have a look. It should be all right."

Tian Yuqiao naturally knew his ability and wanted to find out what had happened there, so he said to Cai Cai and Jin Jin, "you two go with him. Remember, we must protect his safety."

Gold "squeaked" twice, even if it agreed, while Caicai proudly shook his leopard tail and jumped onto Fang Wenhao's shoulder.

For handsome guys, it is still very good. In short, in Tian Yuqiao's opinion, Cai Cai is a man who values sex over friends. Although it's not clear about Caicai's gender, she thinks that little thing should choose to be a female in the future.

There was a burst of smoke outside the two meter high courtyard wall. With the sound of a horse's hoof, there should be a large group of people coming.

"God, they really came." Wang shivered with fear.

Sure enough, outside soon came the sound of smashing the door.

"God, someone knocked at the door. Did they come to catch us?" Wang was a little frightened and his voice was shaking.

Fang Wenhao was already holding a stick and blocking the door. He looked like a little man.

However, the speaker was the movement of the village head: "girl Qiao, open the door. The official starts to investigate from your house. Every family has to ask. Open the door quickly."

It is impossible to pretend that there is no one at home. In desperation, Tian Yuqiao had to go out and open the.

The leader was an eight foot tall man, dressed in military uniform, dusty and bearded. He came a long way.

The man didn't have ink either. As soon as he came in, he called out all the people and began to interrogate them one by one.
