Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

According to the information collected by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, there are not many people with the surname Liu in Guanzhong.

There are a few big families in Qinzhou with the surname Liu, but they have changed their surnames in the past hundred years, and have nothing to do with Liu Bai's family.

But in Chang'an area, Liu Bai heard for the first time that there was someone with the surname Liu.

Cen Cen was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat.

Opening his bow left and right and slapping himself, the other yamen servants also crawled on the ground, their faces ashen ashes.

They didn't guess Liu Bai's identity, but in Chang'an, who would dare to use that mark except the Liu family?

Even the ordinary stewards of the Liu family are not something they can afford.

Such a rare scene attracted a large group of onlookers.

People whispered to each other, and there was a burst of low laughter from time to time.

"Look at you, you are so popular, you don't even have a plea for mercy"

Liu Bai said to the head catcher with a smile.

The head catcher kowtowed like garlic, and said, "My lord, spare your life! Spare your life!"

Seeing that he was a little bit endless, Liu Bai simply ignored him.

To the young yamen servant who reminded the arrester, he said, "Come here."

Liu Bai noticed him just now.

At first, the other yamen servants did not see the mark on the handle of the knife.

It was under the reminder of the young yamen servant that he did not act without authorization.

This young yamen servant is a little too young.

With a childish face, he is half a head shorter than other government servants, no more than 16 years old at most.

It should be that the fathers have been servants in the yamen, and they took over not long ago.

The little yamen servant walked up to Liu Bai, knelt down on the ground again, pouted his buttocks and said, "Young master, please calm down, Mr. Chen doesn't know who you are, it's all a misunderstanding."

A look of surprise flashed in Liu Bai's eyes.

This little yamen servant is quite affectionate and righteous. At this time, he still knows how to intercede with the head catcher?

"Get rid of all the onlookers first, and then come back to listen to orders!"

The little yamen servant hurriedly got up, without saying a word, he pulled out his knife with a 'choke' sound.

The people who watched the excitement around all dispersed with a clatter.

The little yamen servant came back again.

He seemed to see that Liu Bai didn't understand their intentions, he climbed up the pole, bowed and said: "My lord, just tell me!"

"Let me ask you, who is it that you hunted down just now?"

The little yamen servant laughed and said: "Young Master Mingjian, the young ones were chasing fugitives just now, and that fellow stole the official seal of the Grand Master. He looks like a beggar, so he should have nothing to do with your mansion!"

From the looks of it, he also knew that it was Chen Tou's words that offended the old man in front of him.

Liu Bai suddenly understood.

No wonder these yamen servants are yelling anxiously.

That old man must be the magistrate of Lantian County. Losing his official seal is a big deal, and he might lose his head!

"How do you know that the little beggar's surname is Liu?"

"Returning to your son, the little beggar has several accomplices, all of whom are refugees who ran over from the east of the river. Our Majesty showed mercy and allowed refugees from other places to enter the city to ask for a living. They have registered when they entered the city. If they find a suitable livelihood, they can do it." Naturalized in the county, but who knows, those refugees have the audacity to steal the official seal of the old man, the little ones are so brave."

Liu Bai frowned.

Hedong?

The fact that there is no Liu in Guanzhong does not mean that there are none in other places.

Not only are there many in Hedong, but they are also very important!

More than 100 years later, the famous Liu Gongquan and Liu Zongyuan came from the Hedong Liu family.

It stands to reason that although the Hedong Liu family is far inferior to the five surnames and Qiwang, it is also a big family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

How could there be a refugee surnamed Liu who was born in Hedong?

In a big family, no matter how low the status is, no matter how far the blood is, there should be something to eat.

Could it be that something happened to the Hedong Liu family?

Although it doesn't matter, it's a surname anyway, and Liu Bai doesn't mind taking care of it.

Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I just found an excuse to go back, so as not to continue strolling with the female relatives.

At the end of the day, he was really exhausted.

"Since we are in the city, it must be troublesome to catch them, tell me"

Speaking of this, Liu Bai paused and asked Wang Shouren beside him.

"What's the name of the magistrate of Lantian County?"

Wang Shouren immediately replied: "Guo Xingxue!"

Liu Bai nodded, and said: "Tell Guo Xingxue, don't rush to lock him up after you catch him, and send him to Tianxingju Inn, so that Liu can meet him first."

When he spoke the first half of the sentence, the little yamen servant looked embarrassed.

After all, it's about the Grand Master's official seal, so why not?

But after hearing the second half of the sentence, his heart trembled.

There are tens of thousands of people in the Liu family, but there are only three masters whose real surname is Liu.

He didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately bowed and said, "Yes! I'm going to arrest you and hire someone!"

They are all surnamed Liu, if the little beggar is a relative of the head of the Liu family, it will be a big game

Chapter 575 How long has it been since no one knelt at your feet?

It was already late at night when they were caught.

Guo Xingxue, the county magistrate of Lantian County, hosted a banquet for eight dirty refugees.

The majestic elder in the past poured wine one by one for eight trembling refugees with a courteous smile.

Seeing the delicious food on the table, the eight refugees did not dare to move even though they were about to starve to death.

When did the treatment of refugees become so good?

Even if it's a meal of decapitation, it's not enough for the Elder Master to accompany him in person, right?

Fan Dabao was the only one who could talk to Mr. Liu, and he was also sitting at the dinner table after he became a yamen servant for a few days.

Seeing that the old man was about to pour wine for himself, he stood up hurriedly, sweating profusely and said: "My lord, this, this makes it so."

Guo Xingxue, who is in his early forties, is a prime-timer in the officialdom, and being able to become the magistrate of Lantian County shows that he also has a background in the court.

But no matter how big the background is, can it still surpass the Liu family?

He forcibly pushed Fan Dabao down, and said with a smile on his face: "Dabao, you are Bao'er in our county yamen. My lord, I offer you a toast!"

With that said, Guo Xingxue filled it up for himself, and drank it all down in one gulp!

Fan Dabao had never drank alcohol, so he could only drink it under his breath, and hot tears came out.

"Master, don't worry, the younger one will definitely take good care of this one!"

Guo Xingxue laughed, cupped his hands at the refugees, and said: "If I am here, you will definitely not enjoy your meal, so my right-hand man, Dabao, will entertain you all!"

The refugees quickly stood up and hurriedly returned the salute.

After Guo Xingxue went out, he wiped the sweat off his forehead, and looked at the official seal in his hand that was lost and recovered, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

"It's my luck. If I can be like Han Shilang from the Ministry of Industry, what a prospect it will be!"

As he said that, he rushed to the office worker not far away and said: "The food is delicious and delicious, and if you are negligent, I will only ask you!"

Several handymen answered yes repeatedly, and ran to the door to wait for service.

In the house, Fan Dabao gave each of the eight refugees a piece of greasy chicken leg.

"Everyone, please don't be polite. Our Elder Master has ordered you not to look into the past. After dinner, go take a bath. Let's go meet that nobleman together tomorrow!"

Of the eight refugees, six are adults.

It can be seen that their skeletons are thick and strong, even if they are not masters of martial arts, they still have the skills of peasants, but they are all skinny and deformed due to hunger.

The remaining two are children.

One of them was the little beggar who bumped into Li Ke during the day.

The other one looked thinner, with a pair of big moist eyes on a palm-sized face.

It turned out to be a little girl!

Moreover, she is also fairer than others, so she should be well cared for.

After Fan Dabao finished his polite words, the gazes of the six adults all fell on the little boy, with the vague intention of focusing on him.

Guo Xingxue's departure just now made the little boy heave a sigh of relief.

He stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Fan, I'm really sorry for what happened during the day. If it hadn't been for helplessness, I wouldn't have risked violating the laws of the country and came to steal the official seal."

Fan Dabao knew that their identities were unusual, maybe they were relatives of the Liu family, so he said politely: "From the accent of my brother, it seems that they are from Hedong. I don't know why they became refugees, and why did they come to steal the official seal?"

The little boy smiled wryly, with a look of vicissitudes rarely seen among his peers.

"My little brother is really ashamed. The family is indeed from the east of the river. He fled to Guanzhong only because he offended the powerful. As for stealing the official seal, it's a long story."

Fan Dabao saw that his words were well-founded, although his stomach was growling with hunger, but he would never move his chopsticks until he finished answering the questions, he was definitely not an ordinary person.

This is the upbringing that only the heirs of a big family have.

Fan Dabao has also studied for several years, and he has been smart since he was a child, so it is not difficult to deal with it.

"My lord has already destroyed this case. Brother, I also know that you have something to hide, so I won't ask any more questions today. When I see that nobleman tomorrow, it won't be too late to explain it in detail!"

"I don't know who the nobleman that Brother Fan is talking about is"

A look of reverence appeared on Fan Dabao's face.

"Speaking of that noble man, you must have heard of it. He is the Patriarch of the Liu Family in Chang'an City!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone's expressions changed!

The little boy was stunned, swept away his previous decadence, took the girl's hand, and said excitedly: "Sister, you are saved! Brother Wei asked about it when he was in his hometown.

Before he could finish speaking, one of the six adults with a beard suddenly interrupted him: "Brother Hui!"

The boy knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he stopped talking.

Fan Dabao is a smart person, knowing that he shouldn't ask too many questions, he said with a smile: "Everyone eat the vegetables first, and then you can go to freshen up after eating, otherwise it will be too impolite to meet that nobleman tomorrow."

The boy forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Brother Fan."

The next morning!

Outside Tianxingju Inn, Lantian County.

Guo Xingxue has been waiting here for a long time.

Fan Dabao half bowed and stood behind Guo Xingxue.

After that, there are eight refugees after rectification.

The six adults haven't changed much. Just by their demeanor, they can tell that their status is not that high, and they are probably domestic servants or something like that.

And the two children, a boy and a girl, although they only wore the linen clothes of ordinary people, they exuded a bit of indescribable nobility.

Originally, this was the most prosperous area on the street, but now it has been cleared by Guo Xingxue, for fear of disturbing the rest of the nobles.

Li Ke, who was sent out by Liu Bai to buy breakfast, went out yawning.

I saw this long line of people at a glance.

He was startled, and suddenly remembered what happened yesterday.
