Chapter 217 Unfortunate Li Fugui

When Li Fugui saw others going out to chase Zhu Hongsan, he couldn't help but want to run away secretly. As soon as he climbed less than three meters on the ground, a young man stepped on his back.

"Don't move, old man, do you still want to run?"

After all, Li Fugui is over fifty years old. The chaos just now has completely consumed his energy. He was trampled by the young man and could not move. He couldn't help but curse: "You guys are not letting go of me, don't you know who I am? I am..."

Old Li was about to show his identity, but the young man next to him pulled out the grass and stuffed his mouth, so he couldn't make a sound.

Li Fugui whined and was also very scared. He often walked around the countryside and knew that the civil clans were extremely powerful, so the clan leader often had the right to rule on the life and death of the clan members.

At this time, Li Fugui also felt regretful. It would be better to bring a few people with him when he came, and now he has no one to go back to report the news.

At this time, he heard that Zhu Hongsan, the King of Chu in the yard ran out of the backyard, and a group of young men went out to chase him. Li Fugui couldn't help but bless him in his heart: "God bless you, King of Chu, you must run out, otherwise Old Li will be guilty of death."

Although Li Fugui was very regretful that he did not bring his followers, he did not dare to complain about Li Fugui at all. Not to mention that his loyalty to the emperor was deeply rooted in the bones of people in this era, Zhu Hongsan was so kind to Li Fugui's family. Li Fugui had no complaints even for Zhu Hongsan's death.

The others chased Zhu Hongsan, and Li Fugui was taken to the ancestral hall in the village by two young people, and tied to the pillars in the house.

He was struggling outside for a long time, but he seemed to have not caught it. Zhu Hongsan must have run away. Li Fugui was also very calm. He knew that although the King of Chu did everything, he did not say anything to his own people. As long as Zhu Hongsan ran away, he would definitely bring people to save him.

Just as Li Fugui was thinking about it, a group of people came in outside, and there were about twenty people. It was Zhang Youdao, the head of Zhangjiazhuang.

Zhang Youdao went into the house to see Li Fugui tied to the pillar, ignored him, came to the hall and sat down, and asked, "Chen, what's going on?"

Chen, who came in with him, cried and confessed Zhu Hongsan's animal behavior.

Zhang Youdao was also very angry. After all, Chen was a chaste and savage woman enthroned by the court, and he also exempted Zhangjiazhuang from money and food. This was of real benefit to Zhangjiazhuang. Unexpectedly, he was destroyed by the traitor who killed the gods.

Zhang Youdao looked at Li Fugui tied up and said, "Dear fellow villagers, although the thief ran away, we caught the thief's accomplice. Let's discuss what to do?"

"What should I do? Arrest him to the official!"

"Yes, go to Panyu County to sue, and you must seek justice for our Zhang family!"

"This old guy might as well hit him with a hundred sticks first!"

"Yes, kill this old bastard!"

When Li Fugui heard that these fellow villagers wanted to beat him with a hundred sticks. He was a yamen runner-up constable. He knew what a hundred boards were like. When he saw that he was going to be unlucky, Li Fugui couldn't help but whine out, meaning that he had something to say.

When Zhang Youdao saw Li Fugui like this, he said, "Take it out of his mouth and ask him who is that lewd?"

Someone next to him picked out the grass from Li Fugui's mouth. Li Fugui "Bah! Bah!" spit out the grass in his mouth and shouted: "You are in a big deal, do you know who I am? I am the Promoter of Guangzhou Prefecture, Li Fugui, will he let me loosen my ties?"

The room was quiet because of this. Everyone knows what the Promoter does. He is a serious seventh-rank rank, as big as the magistrate.

Seeing the people in the room stunned, Li Fugui sneered: "Are you scared! Why don't you let the master loose?"

Zhang Youdao was also very shocked. This guy is a promoter? The person who ran is only higher than his. If he doesn't do it well, he will be unlucky.

At this time, Chen, who was next to him, said, "Class leader, please be the master of my family. My family's reputation for 17 years has disappeared. If the patriarch has any worries, you can write to my father. My father will make the master of me."

"Yes, why did you forget the power of the Chen family? Mr. Chen also praised Chen very much and would never leave me alone." Zhang Youdao was reminded by Chen and felt relieved. He said, "No matter who you are? He violated the laws of the country and had his own laws to punish you."

After Zhang Youdao finished speaking, he said to several fellow villagers sitting next to him: "Everyone, tie this guy up here tonight. We will go to the county government to beat drums and make trouble tomorrow morning. Can you see?"

When the others saw the patriarch say this, they all agreed and got up and left the ancestral hall afterwards.

Zhang Youdao said to the two young people beside Li Fugui: "You are here tonight and don't let him run away."

"Don't worry, patriarch!"

Li Fugui on the pillar also complained secretly that he would go to the county government to sue tomorrow but he would lose his lord. With the character of the prefect Feng, he would definitely use him to calm the public anger. It seems that this official hat cannot be preserved.

Thinking of this, Li Fugui hoped that Zhu Hongsan would escape quickly and lead people to save him quickly. It would be too late to wait until dawn.

Li Fugui was worried and afraid, and the team led by Zhu Hongyi had already set off from Guangzhou City to rescue Li Daqing.

Zhangjiazhuang was only fifteen miles away from Guangzhou. Zhu Hongyi and his group rode horses and arrived at Zhangjiazhuang in the middle of the night.

This era does not have the colorful nightlife like later generations. In addition, people in this era generally have night blindness, so they don’t go out after dark. The country also has laws. Those who do not indicate their identity after dark will be treated by the owner, and they will be fine if they kill them.

However, Zhu Hongsan's guard company did not have night blindness. He came outside the village by the moonlight and dismounted and waited for Zhu Hongyi's instructions.

Zhu Hongyi first sent two people to the village to inquire about the situation. Zhu Hongyi saw that there were not many households in this village and probably no dedicated cell. Li Fugui was probably locked up in the ancestral hall.

After a while, the two sentries came back to report that Li Fugui was indeed locked in the ancestral hall, and now two people were watching him.

Zhu Hongyi nodded, thinking that this was just right. Although the King of Chu said that he could kill without mercy, it would be better to kill less people.

Zhu Hongyi left his horse outside the village and brought a hundred people to the ancestral hall in the village. He saw the lights in the lobby and the door was open. It was hard to see the house from outside. Li Fugui was tied to a pillar, and two young people were sitting next to the ground.

It was already midnight, and the three people in the lobby were dozing off. Li Fugui was still snoring. He was so open-minded.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhu Hongyi asked four people to go into the house and knock the two young people into a daze and tie them up.

The two young men who were watching the night were already asleep and were easily tied up. When they woke up, they found that they had lost their freedom and could not help but whimper.

At this time, Li Fugui woke up when he heard the movement. He was overjoyed when he saw someone coming to save him. The King of Chu still did not forget himself.

Someone loosened Li Fugui's rope. When Li Fugui came out, he saw that it was Zhu Hongyi who came and said, "Thank you, General Zhu, for saving me, let's go quickly!"

"No hurry, the King of Chu has an order to take the little widow away."

It seems that the King of Chu still misses her. Li Fugui, who was free, had no choice but to take people to Chen's house to arrest people.

Chen suffered a disaster today, and his 17-year innocence disappeared. He returned home and cried for half a night until it was almost midnight before he fell asleep drowsy. Hearing the chickens and ducks in the yard, Chen thought, "Did you come in?"

Just as Chen was about to go out to see what was going on, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a big black man over two meters rushed into the room. After entering the room, he said, "Is it her?"

At this time, Chen saw a vulgar old man next to the black man, who was the one who came with the traitor in the afternoon. Wasn't he tied him in the ancestral hall?

Chen was stunned and knew that someone had come to save him. Just as he was about to shout, the big man with Hei covered Chen's mouth with one hand and said, "Don't shout if you don't want to die."

At this time, Li Fugui next to him said, "General, it's her."

Zhu Hongyi nodded, took a rag and stuffed it into Chen's mouth, then picked up a quilt on the bed, tied Chen into a quilt, and then fought out of the door.

Two hundred people outside were waiting long ago, so Zhu Hongyi put Chen on the horse and took people out of Zhangjiazhuang quietly.

The next morning, the meal delivery person found that Li Fugui had already run away and hurriedly reported to the patriarch Zhang Youdao. After Zhang Youdao knew it, he was so angry that he cursed the two young people who were vigiling.
