Chapter 18: To Marry, Marry Wu Dalang

l a virgin!Suddenly, he had a thought.Gao Jinhua is also an ordinary woman. She is pure and kind.Why would such a good woman cheatOf course, he used to be a good-for-nothing, Wu Dalang. He didn't know...Xiao Tao, who had been Wu Yuemei's maidservant since childhood, was startled by her words and instinctively covered her mouth.

"Miss! Don't! Then you'll be like your cousin!"

Xiaotao refers to Miss Biao, who is the daughter of Wu Yuemei's aunt.

She was from Jinan, born into a prestigious family. Her father, Li Gefei, was a student of Su Shi and held the post of Yuanwai Lang in the Ministry of Rites. Her mother was the eldest daughter of Wang Gui, a former prime minister. Her maternal uncle was Cai Jing, the current Grand Master.

Her surname is Li, and her courtesy name is Qingzhao!

Li Qingzhao recently discovered that her husband had cheated on the imperial examinations. In addition, after marriage, she found out that she had entrusted herself to the wrong person, so she wrote a divorce letter and divorced her husband, and even sent him to prison!

Knowing this, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, Li Qingzhao would also be jailed for doing so, but she remained resolute until the end!

Although she was eventually spared from imprisonment through the intercession of high officials and scholars, Li Qingzhao's reputation was utterly ruined.

The matter caused quite a stir throughout the city, and no man dared to marry her after that!

Xiaotao was afraid that Wu Yuemei would also end up like Li Qingzhao. "Miss, you leaving Ximen's mansion isn't a perfect situation, and it will be even harder to marry in the future."

Wu Yuemei suddenly rolled up her sleeve, Xiao Tao was surprised to find that Wu Yuemei's Shugu Sha was still there!

Little Tao beamed with joy and said, "Miss, it turns out those bandits didn't touch you! That's wonderful. I'll rush to tell the official this good news."

Wu Yuemei grabbed Xiaotao's arm and said coldly, "There is no possibility of me and Ximen He becoming husband and wife again. If I am to marry, I can only marry that man."

"Miss, who is it"

A resolute figure of a man flashed in Wu Yuemei's mind.

"Wu Dalang!"

Wu Cha's home.

The two brothers, Wu Chao and Wu Shao, sat together. From their stature, they were almost identical in height, and their appearances were also somewhat similar.

Besides him sat Zhang Gongnian, the County Captain of Yanggu County.

"Well, gentlemen, what do you think"

Wu Shu never thought about it, waved his hand and said, "Wu Shu will listen to my big brother for everything!"

After waking up, Wu Shu discovered that his elder brother, who had been missing for two years, had grown so tall and handsome. He was overjoyed.

The two brothers lost their parents at a young age, and Wushuo raised Wuchang from infancy. To him, Wuchang was both father and brother.

Wu Chao rubbed his chin thoughtfully, though he knew that after Wu Shu's tiger hunt, the magistrate of Yanggu County would surely come to invite Wu Shu to become the county head.

But in fact, this so-called "head" is just a constable. At most, because he is skilled in martial arts and is a hero who has slain tigers, he can be looked up to by others in the county government office.

But now the Northern Song court is deeply corrupt. In a few years, the Jin army will march south! By then, both emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty will be captured, and all the empresses and princesses will be taken to Wan Guo City, where they will be humiliated by the Jin people!

At the beginning, Wu Chao had no intention of taking an official position.

But Wu Chao also knew that Xi Men Hu would certainly not give up!

He also received some information about Ximen Hu from Bai Sheng. Ximen Hu is not only the overlord of Yanggu County, but also a Grand Tutor in the current dynasty, Cai Jing's adopted son!

Every year, Xi Men Hu would go to Cai Jing's mansion and send hundreds of thousands of gold and treasures!

It's better to take the initiative than to be controlled by others!

This has always been Wu Chao's style.

He doesn't like being beaten passively!

And this time, by accident, Wu Chao also accidentally killed a tiger. Now the county magistrate, besides giving Wu Tuo the position of a headman, also appointed Wu Chao as the jailer in the county government.

The position of Yacha, it's just like Song Jiang!

However, since Song Jiang is the first head jailer, Wu Chao, who just joined, could only be at the very end.

Wu Chao's eyes flickered with a hint of excitement as he said, "It would be rude to refuse such generous hospitality. From now on, my brother and I will rely on the Chen County magistrate and Zhang County lieutenant."

"Alright, alright, I'll tell County Magistrate Chen this good news right away!"

Zhang Gongnian turned to leave, but Wu Chao suddenly grabbed his hand. “County Magistrate Zhang, to be honest, I’ve always had a question. Wang Ying was a bandit on Qingshan Mountain, and their raiding range was only within a few dozen miles. Why would they cross mountains and rivers to come to Yanggu County

"Furthermore, he knows nothing about our Yanggu County. The fact that he could scale the city walls and evade the guards at night certainly means there are traitors within our county!"

When Wu Chao said this, Zhang Gennian's eyes lit up!

"Dalan, do you know who that person is"

Wǔ Chāo smiled slightly: "I have a general idea of who that person is, but I can't just speak without proof. Why don't you come with me, County Magistrate Zhang Let's go and see for ourselves!"

At this moment, Hsi-men Ch'ing stormed into Wang Po Tea House, his anger reaching its peak.

"Aunt! Look at what your nephew Qian has done!"

Wang Ying led a group of people to steal Ximen He's wealth and abduct his wife, Wu Yuemei. This matter has spread throughout Yanggu County.

Of course, Wang Po also learned about the news right away. Although she was flustered inside, her face remained unchanged.

She slowly led Ximen Hu to the table and poured him a cup of steaming, fragrant tea.

"Master Xi, you can't blame me for this. My nephew is now dead at the hands of those bandits, and all the money and valuables taken from you have been emptied by them. This is all because of that Wu Chao!"

"Upon hearing the name 'Wu Chao,' Xi Men He's anger flared instantly: 'Wu Chao, Wu Chao, right now I wish nothing more than to tear him limb from limb!'"

For Xi Menhe, the missing chests of silver were nothing compared to the humiliation he felt. What truly enraged him was the green hat that had been placed upon his head, turning him into a laughingstock. Everywhere he went, people whispered and pointed, driving him to the brink of madness.

"Master Ximen, please calm down. Before you arrived, I already had a plan. The leader of Qingfeng Mountain is Yan Shun, the Golden-Furred Tiger. This man is incredibly skilled in martial arts. His bandit followers are also all formidable warriors, able to defeat ten men single-handedly! If Master Ximen can persuade him to come, Wu Chao will surely die without a doubt!"

Ximen Hu also had his head filled with rage, and asked Madam Wang, "How much silver are you asking for"

"10,000 gold coins!"

Xi Men Hu did not even raise an eyebrow when he heard the amount. To him, it was just a small sum of money!

What he was worried about was whether Yan Shun could kill Wu Chao.

"Is that tabby tiger you were talking about really that amazing"

"My lord, you don't know! Several months ago, the Azure-furred Tiger led his two subordinates, Shortfoot Tiger and Pale-faced Scholar, along with dozens of his men, slaughtered every man, woman, and child in Chenjiazhuang, Nanci County!"

"Two thousand soldiers surrounded the mountain and launched an attack, resulting in three hundred casualties. They returned empty-handed!"

Xi Menhe listened and then slapped the table heavily: "Good! I'll pay for this! When will you have your people contact them"

"As long as the lord provides the money, they can bring Wu Chao's head to your doorstep tomorrow night!"

"Old hag…… Ugh!" Wu Shuo, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was instantly furious. He clenched his fists and was about to rush in.

At a crucial moment, Wu Chao clamped his hand over his mouth.men He had just entered the inner courtyard when his legal wife, Wu Yuemei, came towards him, her voluptuous and alluring figure swaying.As soon as Ximen He saw Wu Yuemei, his brows involuntarily furr...
