Hello officer! Welcome to the Kun Tong Shusheng Storytelling Series, this issue is the 474th issue of the original story, thank you for your attention.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xu held a high position of power, which also attracted officials to frequently pat themselves on the back.
When the prefect of The Prefecture heard that Liu Xu was about to hold a birthday feast, he prepared a big gift, sent his cronies to select seven or eight strong men, and instructed him to send them to Beijing safely.
Not long after leaving the prefecture, the cold winter moon day made it even more difficult to walk the mountain road, which was not easy to walk.
Seeing that there was a thatched hut a hundred meters ahead, the big guy decided to rest his feet, and the owner of the house was a poor talent.
Wang Xiucai heard that the official messenger wanted to stay in his own home, so he said to the official messenger: The small family is in tatters, I am afraid that I will wronged a few adults, according to the villain, I sent a few adults to Xiong San's home, I don't know what the adults intend?
The official nodded and went with Wang Xiucai to Xiong San's house.
After Wang Xiucai and Xiong San said the intention of the official messenger, Xiong San and his wife Hu Shi went forward to talk to the official messenger and said: The adults will stay in my house for the time being, and I will go to prepare wine and good dishes for you to entertain you, and Wang Xiucai, you should also go with a few adults.
Xiucai thought that he was alone, so he responded, and unexpectedly, this meal turned out to be Xiucai's last supper!
Xiong San's wife, Hu Shi, had a heavy heart, and when she saw the carriage of the official, she had a bad thought, so she took advantage of the effort to prepare the meal and said to Xiong San: So many people escort a carriage, presumably this carriage must be loaded with something very valuable, you and I will take it away, and there will certainly be no need to worry about life in the future.
Xiong San was a butcher, and in order to slaughter livestock, he prepared a lot of medicine, and the two of them put the medicine into the wine together, so that it was not easy to be discovered.
Unexpectedly, the plan of the two was heard by Xiucai, and Xiu knew that if he left now, he would definitely provoke the disaster of killing himself, so he decided to plan it out.
Soon, the meal and the menghan medicine wine were ready, Xiong San and his wife greeted the official messenger and Xiu Cai to sit down, eating to the middle of the middle, The Hu clan signaled Xiong San with his eyes, Xiong San immediately got up to pour wine for several officials, and flattered everyone: Several adults drank some wine to warm up the body, this is the lady's own wine, there is no energy, will not delay the trip of the adults, rest assured!
The official saw Xiong San say this, so everyone raised a glass together, and at this time Xiucai also raised his wine glass together, and within a few moments a pot of wine was drunk.
Of course, Xiucai would not really drink these wines, taking advantage of the fact that people did not pay attention to spit it out, where the official Cha Zhou Che Laoton could still withstand the sweat medicine, and after a while he fainted on the ground, Xiu Cai saw that everyone was lying down, and he also lay down.
Xiong San and his wife saw that everyone was unconscious, so they quickly ran to see the things in the carriage, and Hu Shi saw that the gold and silver treasures in the carriage had their eyes shining, and just when the two of them wanted to dispose of the corpses and go out of the city overnight, Xiu Cai, who pretended to be dead, had already quietly stood behind the two people.
At this time, Xiucai said coldly: Your husband and wife are so bold, they dare to steal the property of the imperial court!
Hu Shi turned his head to see Xiucai, and the flowers lost their color. Hurry up and Xiucai said: If you don't report to the officials, we will divide the property equally!
Xiucai said: You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me now, give me more than half of the treasure, and I will not tell the official family, otherwise you will wait to go to jail!
Xiong San roared angrily: "We kill people and hide corpses, you didn't do anything and actually wanted more than half of your property!" Fool's paradise!
Seeing this, Hu Shi hurriedly said: Wang Xiucai, you sent the two of you into the yamen, you will not get the treasure, and in the end it will still fall into the hands of the official family, you and I each take a step back, you are half, our husband and wife are half, how do you see?
Xiucai thought about Hu's words and felt that it was not unreasonable, so he agreed, and the three of them hid the body in the courtyard and began to divide the property.
At this time, Hu Shi's eyes contained a killing chance, taking advantage of Xiucai's treasure, a shovel slapped him to death, Xiucai's eyes were angry, he opened his mouth to say something, there was no chance, pounced, and fell to the ground.
Hu Shi and Xiong San took care of everything in the house, took only some of the jewelry, buried the gold and silver in the courtyard with the corpse, and quietly left.
The two of them still have a heart at first, but because the man has money, it becomes bad, Xiong San began to indulge in fireworks willow lane, unable to extricate himself, at first Hu Shi still turned a blind eye and ignored it.
One day, Xiong San intensified his efforts and actually brought this fireworks woman back to his home, and Xiong San beat and scolded Xiong San, and Xiong San had long wanted to leave this woman, so he said to Xiong San: If you can accept Thrush as a concubine, I will also regard you as my wife, otherwise be careful that I leave you!
Hearing this, he stopped fighting and said coldly to Xiong San: Before you leave me, let's go to the official palace together!
Xiong San, who heard this, said to Thrush: You go, we will not see each other again.
After the thrush left, Xiong San fell to his knees, constantly slapping himself, and saying in his mouth: It is all my color Lingzhi faint, the lady spared me this time, I dare not again.
Such a shrewd person of the Hu clan also knew that if Xiong San was forced to be in a hurry, don't talk about money, I'm afraid that his name would not be guaranteed. I forgave him and told him there could be no next time.
And this side of the thrush, back to the Qinglou, after freshening, put this plutonium on the head, went out to pick up customers, a businessman in the thrush talking, saw this plutonium, he asked the thrush: Where did this plutonium come from? Can you take a look at me?
Thrush replied: This was sent by the previous guest. After saying that, he took it off and gave it to the merchant, and the merchant fixed his eyes on it, isn't this the one hundred taels that the government offered a reward of one hundred taels a few days ago? It turned out that the prefect of The Prefecture learned that the treasure had not been delivered, so he offered a reward to find the treasure.
The merchant and Thrush told them about this, and the two of them went to report to the officials together, and Xiong San and Hu Shi were imprisoned for murder and theft!
Thrush and the merchant get a bounty, one person half, Thrush uses this money to redeem himself, the tired bird knows...
If Xiucai had agreed to Xiong San's proposal, he might not have died here, and all three of them had been duly punished for their greed.
Greed is great, and it is very dim and forgetful of righteousness; if it is extremely demanding, it is contentious and resentful.
