The back garden of the Yansheng Mansion was overhauled twice during the Chu Dynasty, and it is a coincidence that the two reconstructions were designed by the first assistant of the Chu Dynasty at that time for the Confucian family supervisors.

Now this back garden covers an area of more than ten acres, including mountains, water, forests, curved bridges, flower docks, water pavilions, fountains, as well as water stone islands, cool flower halls, godly stone altars, moon viewing terraces, incense book houses.

However, on this day, shouts rang out from time to time in the back garden.

"Thief ......"

"There are Assassin ......"

At this time, most people don't take things too seriously.

Presumably, it is just a group of thieves, and with the garrison of the Holy Mansion, I believe that the thieves can be driven out soon.

At this time, Wang Xiao had already led people through the back garden to the vicinity of the building in the backyard. Hearing the shouting, he glanced around unhurriedly and ordered, "Put a signal and notify a thousand people outside the city to come in." ”

"Yes."

"Bang!" The letter cannon exploded in the air.

They no longer hid their tracks and detoured, and when they encountered the Jiading Courtyard, they rushed up and killed them with swords. Seeing the blood, the maids and women all over the yard began to scream, running around like a stabbed honeycomb.

"It's fast! Kill Kong Yinzhi first. ”

Going around the building, I saw Zhuang Xiaoyun leading a few people to run this way.

"Report, Kong Yinzhi should still be in the front yard, and I haven't seen him come back."

This was Wang Xiao's expected result, and said, "I know, it's sure to be in the front yard." ”

Zhuang Xiaoyun didn't squat on anyone, he was a little regretful, and glanced at Huazhi.

Hua Zhi didn't see him at all, and was whispering to Tang Qianqian: "I saw several treasures just now, and I went back to divide things, can you give me that big mirror?" ”

"What to divide, you should still be in the former rebel army......"

Wang Xiao didn't hear their whispers, and said to Zhuang Xiaoyun: "You go and transfer 300 people to block the backyard, don't let people escape with their belongings." ”

Most of the backyards were women's dependents, and after casually making arrangements, Wang Xiao led Liu Yikou and more than 30 people to continue forward.

Turning the bead door in front of me, I heard a child's voice scream.

The group hurried over, and Liu Yikou fixed his eyes and saw a child about ten years old running in front, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"There! It is Kong Yinzhi's son. ”

"Hold him."

……

Kong Xingxie suddenly saw the corpse at home, and although he screamed in fright, he quickly calmed down.

He didn't expect that Wang Xiao would come to deal with the Kong family. One is that he said that Wang Xiao is still in a coma when he listened to Kong Xingyi's report before, and the other is that he didn't think Wang Xiao would do this at all.

As for the other people who want to deal with the Kong family, there is no such thing.

Thinking about it, it should just be a thief.

Thinking like this? Kong Heung-sub quickly asked people to inform his father? I ran to the backyard to find my mother.

I only ran a few steps, and suddenly saw more than 30 people turn out in front of me? Carrying a knife? There was still blood on the knife.

Kong Xingxie was stunned for a moment before he reacted, turned around and ran.

"Bang!"

A sound behind you? A family member fell down.

Kong Xingxie was so frightened that he ran to the narrow passage in the backyard and the front yard and didn't go in? A limp on your feet? Indented into the crevice under the rockery next to it......

Liu Yikou led people to rush forward, pressed down the housekeeper Zhao Decheng and a few family members, and then chased to the front of the cave, and couldn't help frowning? I found myself unable to squeeze in.

He looked into the cracks? I saw that the child had climbed far away.

"Grandpa Guo, I can't catch up with him......"

"Send a few people to surround this rockery." Wang Xiao said indifferently, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that he had come to kill the whole family and chase down the children? It's really too much like a villain.

He had to manage his expression to make himself look not too hideous? Then he squatted down and asked Zhao Decheng, who was pressed to the ground, "Where is Kong Yinzhi?" ”

The status of the steward of the Holy Mansion in the world is higher than that of the ordinary ministers of the six ministries? Zhao Decheng is not a mediocre person who can achieve this position, speaking of which, he uses his brain more than Kong Yinzhi every day.

If he can really sell his master easily? Even if he saves his life, his future will be ruined. I want to deal with each other.

Zhao Decheng was not in a hurry at this time? Calmly looked at Wang Xiao? said: "This son, if you come for money, you can ...... as many old men as you want."

"Bang!"

"Ah......h

Wang Xiao directly took the fire hammer and slammed it on Zhao Decheng's thigh.

"Where is Kong Yinzhi?"

Zhao Decheng shouted bitterly, the muscles on his face trembled because of the pain, and while inhaling, he spit out three words hard: "Nanhua Hall." ”

"Take him with you." Wang smiled.

He led Tang Qianqian through the gloomy and narrow corridor, and said in a low voice: "Look, so I'm going to kill me directly...... These people think they are smart people, and smart people never obey easily. When they find an opportunity, they will have to deal with me, not to mention this kind of matter that is related to their fundamental interests, and it is impossible to compromise. It's already mid-February, and it's too late if the fields aren't divided...... So, what you can't say, let's talk about it in blood. ”

Tang Qianqian pretended to be disappointed, and said aggrievedly: "I thought you wanted to stand out for others, but it turned out to be a division of the field, hum." ”

Wang Xiaozi could understand her jokes, smiled, and felt a lot less stressed.

Yes, coming to raid the home of the descendants of the Confucian saint, even if he has a modern soul, he still feels a huge pressure to come this far......

~~

Kong Xingyi was in charge of the Guards Department of the Qin Silin Temple of the Holy Mansion.

Confucius also has its own 'six departments', if the Guan Gou Hall is the 'household department' of Confucius, the Lin Temple Guard Division is the 'military department' of Confucius.

The so-called Lin Temple refers to Kong Lin and Confucius Temple. Together with the Confucian Mansion, it is called the 'Three Holes'.

The main guards of this 'Lin Temple Guard Division' are Kong Lin and Confucius Temple, but in fact, the main guards are still Confucian Mansion.

In peaceful years, the guard division generally has a reserve of 500 to 1,000 troops. As for today's chaos, the Kong family has also expanded its army to 5,000 people, plus the troops in Qufu County, it is naturally foolproof.

The 5,000 guards don't get together every day to practice.

The Kong family is a scholarly family, and they don't have the heart to fight for hegemony, so many guards actually have nothing to do every day. Of course, the Kong family is not short of money, but they feel that it is very troublesome to manage.

After Kong Xingyi took over the Guard Division, according to the military household system of the Chu Dynasty, he divided a field in Qufu County, and divided the soldiers into two shifts, rotating every month, one shift for reclamation and farming, and the other shift responsible for guarding.

In this way, 2,500 people guarded Kong Lin, Confucian Temple, and Confucian Mansion respectively, which not only did not look bloated and noisy, but also allowed the soldiers to have fields and work hard for the Confucian family, and everything seemed to be so orderly.

But in fact, behind the scenes, Kong Xingyi first ate half of the soldiers' salaries, and then occupied the fields, squeezing the tenants and the guards on the other. This is not unusual, most of the generals in the entire Chu Dynasty did this. Kong Xingyi only ate half of it, and he was already a rare incorruptible person.

Honesty is honesty, but the Kong family is too rich, and in just two years, Kong Xingyi still earned a lot of wealth.

As for Kong Yinzhi, he didn't find out that a family business was too big, and these were just one of a lot of unclear properties for the Kong family; Second, Kong Xingyi does have the means, and everything is done seamlessly......

If nothing else, there is nothing to use in the Yansheng Mansion to use these five thousand guards, who in this world would dare to embarrass them, and it doesn't hurt for Kong Xingyi to eat empty salaries and occupy the fields for a long time.

But sometimes, the unexpected happens quietly......

Today, Kong Xingyi saw Kong Yinzhi, returned to the Guard Division, and asked his henchmen to summon the outlaws he raised.

Even though Kong Xingyi's status is noble, it is rare to be a little polite when dealing with these murderers.

"Brother Lu, grandpa means to let me take a thousand people to Dong'a to get rid of Wang Xiao."

A man in the hall is not tall, but his face is ruthless, surnamed Lu, named Tie Tuo, who was originally a big thief leader on Yishan Mountain, and after being taken by the government in his early years, Kong Xingyi rescued him.

Lu Tietuo was righteous, was fed with good food and drink, married a wife and took a concubine and had children, and the children could still study in Nishan Academy, and he was willing to sell his life to Kong Xingyi. At this time, without saying a word, he patted his chest and said: "How can this kind of thing let the owner go, I took thirty people to Dong'a, and quietly made Wang Xiao." ”

Kong Xingyi's face was full of concern, and he said, "In this way, it's hard Brother Lu, but you must take care of yourself." ”

Lu Tietuo's heart was moved, and he entrusted his family to take people out of the holy mansion and rush to Dong'a.

He is a reckless person, without those mothers-in-law and mothers-in-law, he plans to go to Dong'a tonight, and he will be Wang Xiao tomorrow, and he will be able to leave and come back the day after tomorrow.

Out of the city, Lu Tietuo saw a column of officers and soldiers on the official road rushing towards Qufu. He grinned and said to himself, "I don't know what these officers and soldiers are doing." ”

As he spoke, he stopped caring about it and hurried all the way to Dong'a.

Over there, Kong Xingyi finished arranging this matter, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to his henchman: "Uncle Zong is still too high-minded, and he doesn't know how to do things." Look at what he said, he took a thousand people to be Wang Xiao, and he still has to be secret? Scold. ”

"Yes, it's still Childe who can make things happen."

"Heh, there are not many soldiers and horses, but fine." Kong Xingyi said lightly, "What is the use of our Holy Mansion raising five thousand soldiers? To do things, a small group of refined people is enough. ”

With that, he tapped lightly on the table, thinking in his heart.

When Lu Tietuo became Wang Xiao, he could also report a sum of money and grain to Zongbo, saying that the people sent had suffered heavy casualties, and the pension money would have to be spent a lot......

Then I heard someone shouting faintly in the distance.

"There are assassins!"

Kong Xingyi frowned, and told his henchmen to bring some nursing homes to take a look.

After a while, the shouting did not stop, but became more and more urgent, and there was a faint sound of guns.

Kong Xingyi felt more and more that something was wrong, and suddenly got up to gather the guards.

"Report!"

It is said that there are 2,500 guards, but they are scattered to the Confucian Temple and Kong Lin, and only 900 people can be gathered by Kong Xingyi at this moment.

He led 900 people to rush in the direction where Kong Yinzhi was, and only after passing a courtyard wall did he suddenly rain arrows down.

Then, there was a loud bang.

"Bang! Bang......"

Kong Xingyi was giving orders in the middle of the ranks, when suddenly the head of a soldier in front of him exploded, splashing blood on his face.

"Ahh

The screams were loud, and the nine hundred people scattered into a mass with a bang.

"There's an ambush, ......"

Kong Xingyi retreated to the hall with his head in his hands, and looked at it, there were not many people over there, estimated to be more than two hundred.

"They're trying to stop us...... Rush over! ”

No one listened to his orders, and the guards had never really fought, and they were frightened by the rain of firearms and arrows, and they were like a loose sand table scurrying around.

Kong Xingyi only realized that the matter was serious at this time, and he shouted hoarsely for a while, and quickly pulled his henchmen.

"Go! Go and bring back the guards of the Temple of Confucius and Kong Lin. ”

"Quick, go to Qufu County Ya for help......"

At this point, he thought that the county commander Kong Zhenkan was still in the Holy Mansion, and changed his words: "Go to the county government to bring all the errand soldiers, and then go to the guard station to let the officers and soldiers come over." ”

"Also, you two, ride fast horses to Yanzhou and let the Yanzhou garrison camp come and ......"

After making a good arrangement, Kong Xingyi poked his head out again and shouted: "We have a thousand people, and another 1,500 people will arrive immediately, and they will be 200 people, don't be afraid, rush over and save the Holy Father, there is a lot of reward!" ”

"There are many rewards......

At this time, the situation was that 300 people from Wang Xiao's side controlled the back house, 200 people temporarily blocked the guard hall, and 1,000 people came from outside the city; And the guards of 2,500 people on the side of the Confucian Mansion are still gathering, and the soldiers and horses in the county and state are informing.
