The county magistrate Fang didn't believe it and said to the Yamen servant: "Torture!"

"Yes." A group of government servants from Tianfu County immediately held down Liu Tianbao and beat him.

Liu Tianbao was beaten so miserably that he couldn't bear it anymore and could only shout: "Sir, please spare my life. I'll be honest, please stop beating me!"

If you hit me again, you will die.

Only then did Fang Xian Cheng ask the Yamen servant to stop and said in a deep voice: "Speak!"

Liu Tianbao told the whole story, exactly as he told sisters Bai Chunge and Bai Qiuge.

After hearing this, Fang Xian Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that he was saving the wrong person: "Is the contract of sale of Bai Chunge's family still with you?"

Liu Tianbao nodded: "It's here, it's in the villain's inner pocket. Please let someone take it away."

The steward of the Fang family immediately stepped forward, found the deed of sale of Bai Chunge's family from Liu Tianbao's inner pocket, and handed it to Fang Xian Cheng.

After reading it, Prime Minister Fang County returned the deed of sale to Old Man Bai: "Take it and go to the government to cancel the slave status. Your family will be of good status. You can make your own decisions in the future and you will not be bullied anymore."

But Old Man Bai said: "Sir, it was you who saved Lao Nu and his family. Please accept Lao Nu and his family and let them be your servants."

He added: "The old slave family has been servants all their lives. They have no house and no land. They don't know where to settle down. Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and the two granddaughters in the family are good-looking. If they don't have anyone to rely on, even if they become good family members, they will be dismissed. The fate of a person who commits murder, please do me a favor and take in the old slave and his family."

Bai Lao'er and his wife, the three grandsons of the Bai family, and Bai Chunge's sisters all knelt down, kowtowed to Fang County Cheng, and begged him to take him in: "Sir, please take our family in. Our family is used to working as servants. I will serve your family wholeheartedly.”

"This..." Fang Xiancheng was in trouble, but what Old Man Bai said was very reasonable. Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and most people's lives are very difficult. With two beautiful granddaughters, they are the meat on the chopping board. He could be killed at any time.

Seeing that Fang County Prime Minister wanted to take over this family, Gu Jinan hurriedly tugged on the sleeves of Dou Shaodong's family.

Dou Shaodong pulled back his sleeves and glared at Gu Jinan: You're bullshit, Fang is so stupid, just let him be deceived, I don't want to save him.

However, Gu Jinan felt that this matter was not that simple, so he bowed his hand to him as if he was asking for help.

The Dou Shaodong family finally spoke, and Fang Xian Cheng said: "Master Fang, we have to rush back to He'an Mansion. It's cold and the road is far away, so it's inconvenient to take them with us. The Dou family has a village nearby, why don't I take it over? How about sending their family to work in the village?"

This idea of ​​Dou Shaodong's family can be said to be the best of both worlds, but Old Man Bai was anxious and said hurriedly: "Master, thank you for your kindness, but Master Fang is the savior of Lao Nu's family. Although Lao Nu and his family are servants, they know It is a principle that kindness must be repaid, so I still want to be Lord Fang's servant to repay the kindness."

To repay kindness?

Dou Shaodong's family laughed: "Ah, you are a slave, but you are quite knowledgeable."

Old Man Bai did not answer, and began to beg Fang County Cheng again: "Sir, please give me a chance to let the old slave family repay their kindness. If the grace of saving my life cannot be repaid, the old man will die with his eyes open even if he passes away."

Dou Shaodong’s family: “…”

Okay, he even said the words without hesitation, which shows that he is a cunning thing.

The old man Bai was gray-haired. An old man begged Fang County Cheng like this and said that he would die in peace if he didn't repay his kindness. This made Fang County Cheng no longer able to refuse.

But just when he was about to agree, Gu Jinan said: "Sir, we have been out for too long, why not go and tell Mr. Tang first, so as not to make him anxious."

Gu Jinan is just a scholar. If he tells Fang Xian Cheng directly, he may be fooled and it will definitely hurt Fang Xian Cheng's face. It is better to let Fang Xian Cheng see Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang is smart and will definitely remind Fang County Cheng directly after hearing this. However, Fang County Cheng's official position is much smaller than Mr. Tang. Even if he is called a fool in front of his face, he does not dare to get angry.

After hearing this, Fang Xian Cheng frowned, but still nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's go see Mr. Tang first."

Gu Jinan didn't go and looked at Dou Shaodong's house.

Dou Shaodong's family was so angry that they felt that they were the nanny of the Gu family, but they could only say: "Master Fang, I will accompany you there, and let Gu Jinan stay and watch them."

Everyone cares about face. If Tang Tongpan scolded Fang Xian Cheng and Gu Jinan, a peasant scholar, was present, Fang Xian Cheng would be embarrassed.

If the county magistrate has a grudge, it will be a hidden danger to the Gu family.

"Sure." Fang Xian Cheng agreed and took Dou Shaodong's family out of the woods to see Tang Tongpan.

Tang Tongpan was a little angry after waiting for so long. After hearing what Fang Xian Cheng said, he became even more angry. He looked at Fang Xian Cheng and said, "Zi'an, have you ever thought that in this wilderness, something like this suddenly appeared?" If a group of people comes, could it be that others have already planned it and are just waiting for us to fall into the trap?"

Fangxian Cheng was stunned and said hurriedly: "My lord, I have thought of it, but I have seen the deed of sale of Bai Chunge's family. It is stamped with the official seal of Tong'an Prefecture and written by the Bai family of Fucheng. It must not be a fake." Robbers and thieves."

Tang Tongpan: "..."

Why is Fang Zian so stupid?

The person rescued on the roadside actually dared to take him home. Was it because he thought his life was long or because he wanted to find something to do for his family?

Or does he want to be a hero to save the beauty?

"Zian, the people you meet on the road are unreliable. It's better to listen to Dou Shaodong's family and send them to Dou's village." Tang Tongpan was too lazy to tell Fang Xiancheng and directly made the decision: "The Dou family is rich, Dou Shaodong's family will follow We are familiar with them and won’t harm them, so let’s do it.”

The Dou Shaodong family thought to themselves: Hey, Mr. Tang, please don't praise me. I have no intention of taking in those people of unknown origin. I will let the Dou family shadow guards sell them later.

Seeing that Judge Tang Tong had a tough attitude, Fangxian Cheng did not dare to disobey him. He nodded and said, "Yes, I will obey the order."

Tang Tongpan nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and deal with it. Once it's done, we can set off."

"Yes." Fang Xiancheng and Dou Shaodong's family returned to the woods.

When Gu Jinan saw Fang Xian Cheng's depressed expression and Dou Shaodong's family's expressions of looking forward to a good show, he knew that the matter was done.

When Old Man Bai saw this, his heart skipped a beat. Could this be happening?

Well, if the master finds out, they will be doomed!

Fangxian Cheng said: "I am not from Tong'an Prefecture, but an official from He'an Prefecture. This time I am here to handle a case, and I have to rush back to recover. I can't bring too many people with me. Old man from the Bai family, you just go with Dou Shaodong's family. My servants should go to Doujiazhuangzi."

"The Dou family is a great imperial merchant of Chu, and their family has a lot of wealth. You can live a wealthy life by following Dou Shaodong's family."

Old Man Bai didn't want to speak anymore after hearing this, but he quickly came to his senses and responded: "Old slave, I obey."

After saying that, he led the whole family to kneel down, kowtow to Fang County Cheng, and thank him for his life-saving grace.

He kowtowed to Dou Shaodong's family again and thanked him for taking him in.
