Chapter Thirty-Six: Killing the Chincha
Chaozhou City, which had been chaotic in the morning, finally quieted down at sunset, but this was all superficial. In the dark underground cell, Qin Cha was still roaring: "You thieves~~, the heavenly meeting will definitely accept you~~!" The emperor will definitely know~~~ When the time comes, I will definitely let you raid your house and kill your nine clans~~~~" But this is in the dungeon thirty meters underground in Chaozhou City, no matter how he shouts, no one outside can hear it anymore.
"What the hell is noisy~~! Damn it! I don't want to live you~! Pumping you to death~~! A jailer with a leather whip slapped the old man's body and scolded loudly.
In the main hall of the Chaozhou Governor's Mansion, Li Ren, Zhang Lei, Zhang Hu, Xiong Zhizhou, etc. are among them, and the dull atmosphere is full of the main hall. Chen Lin said with a worried stomach now: "Master Hou, you shouldn't easily attack the Qin Mission, now that it's like this, how should it end!" ”
Xiong Zhizhou is now a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water, but he is still very worried about being discovered, only Liren and Zhang Lei and others are silently listening to the complaints of those people. Only then did he speak: "I really don't know what you're worried about now, if you really find out that Qincha was arrested by us, it's a big deal that we will go up the mountain again." But now it's not as dangerous as you think, first of all, all the subordinates and others of the Qin Cha are in our hands, and they just want the capital to know, and they have to escape from our dungeon. Second, it's just too simple, don't we say to the outside world that the current Qincha is fake? ”
"Now let's find a few damn bandits, and then have a tanuki for the prince, what do you think?" Rihito didn't worry about the situation at all, and leisurely talked about his plan.
"But Master Hou, without Qincha's letter now, your plan is over." Chen Lin anxiously reminded Li Ren.
Xiong Zhizhou heard their discussion, but now what Chen Lin said made the second monk puzzled. I wanted to ask Hou Ye what his plan was, but he didn't dare to speak.
At this time, Liren thought for a while and said, "Lord Zhizhou, aren't you worried about the current situation, afraid that the emperor will find out about us?" ”
Xiong Zhizhou only nodded, his sideburns sweated and clenched his fists, and said, "I know everything about Hou Ye!" ”
"That's good! We need a back road now, we need to know the state to give permission, I don't know if the state master cooperates? Liren cut straight to the point and looked directly at this Xiong Zhizhou.
Xiong Zhizhou immediately clasped his fists and saluted: "Master Hou just talks, what small can be done, and the small one must be done even if he fights for his life." ”
Li Ren nodded and then looked at Chen Lin, Chen Lin stood up and said: "Hou Ye's meaning is true, building a city on the plain south of Sangpu Mountain near the sea, for our own outflow, is also a good way to retreat. I wonder if Lord Zhizhou can do it? ”
Xiong Zhizhou was stunned for a moment, his face turned white in an instant, and he looked at the murderous people in front of him in horror. He finally understood now, looked at Liren tremblingly and asked, "Could it be that Master Hou wants ~~?" Speaking of this, I immediately reacted, this is not what I should ask, just shut up immediately.
"Hahaha~~!" Looking at Xiong Zhizhou's timid appearance, everyone laughed. Rihito couldn't hold back a smile and said, "Haha! Zhizhou-sama, although rest assured, we will not do that self-sufficient thing now. But I'd like to ask Lord Chishu to see something. After saying that, Liren clapped his hands.
Momentarily four soldiers walked through the door, all holding a tray covered with red silk cloth. At this time, Li Ren spoke: "Lord Zhizhou, please take a look!" After speaking, he walked down and pulled the red silk cloth on the tray one by one.
Xiong Zhizhou didn't understand what Riren wanted him to see, and looked at the tray with curiosity, the first tray of red silk cloth was removed, and Xiong Zhizhou was suddenly dazzled by a burst of white light. He wiped his eyes vigorously, and then he saw clearly that there was actually a silver ingot.
As the second tray was opened, a burst of yellow light suddenly made Xiong Zhizhou drool. Rihito only smiled slightly when he saw him, and then the third tray was opened, revealing a pearl the size of a fist. This made Xiong Zhizhou's heart unbearable, and with a respite, Lord Zhizhou was looking forward to this fourth tray very much. Because the fourth tray was obviously larger than the first three when he looked at it from the outside, it was also a treasure.
Xiong Zhizhou suddenly had a golden look in his eyes, looking forward to the items on the plate. Rihito's face suddenly turned ruthless, and he snapped the car and drove the fourth tray. Xiong Zhizhou suddenly said, "Ah~~!" He was so frightened that he sat on the ground, his mouth opened wide, and he pointed to the items on the plate and couldn't speak for a long time.
Li Ren laughed and said, "I don't know what Xiong Zhizhou wants to say?" Please speak up! ”
Xiong Zhizhou sat on the ground with his mouth open for a long time before he said: "Hou ~~ Hou ~~ Ye ~ ~ Ye ~~!" You~~ You actually killed him? After speaking, he swallowed his saliva fiercely, not daring to look at the contents of the plate again.
After striding back to the case, Liren asked, "I wonder how Lord Xiong feels now?" ”
Xiong Zhizhou climbed to the front of the case! Boom!! Boom! kowtowed three times and begged for mercy: "Please don't kill the little one!" The little one must do his best for the Hou Ye. ”
Li Ren waved his hand lightly and said, "Get up, it seems that you don't want to choose the path of Qincha?" ”
"That's right! Right! Right! The small one will not be the same as Qin Cha, he himself should be damned, and the small one is dominated by Hou Ye. Xiong Zhizhou stood up and said tremblingly.
At this time, Li Ren asked the soldier who was dragging the head of the Qin Cha to retreat, pointed to the other three trays and said, "These are all for you, and now you are also a person in our boat, what you should say and what you should do." What should not be said and what should not be done, I think you, Lord Xiong, must know. ”
Xiong Zhizhou suddenly knelt on the ground again and said loudly to Liren: "The little one knows, the little one knows." ”
"Hmmm! Now that Qin Cha is dead, it's all thanks to you, Lord Xiong. But now only you know and I know. I don't ask for much, but if I do things in the future, I'll ask you to cover it up. I wonder if Lord Xiong agreed? Li Ren asked Xiong Zhizhou in a gentle voice.
Xiong Zhizhou immediately smiled and said to Liren: "What does Hou Ye want to do in the future, just open your mouth, and the lower officials will definitely do it properly for Hou Ye." ”
Li Ren took a sip of the fragrant tea in front of him, and then said: "Okay! Now that you Xiong Zhizhou have spoken, I will stop talking nonsense. This Chaozhou Navy is all unified, I don't know if Lord Xiong can think about it? ”
Xiong Zhizhou suddenly thought for a while and said: "Master Hou is not that I don't want to give it to Master Hou, but someone is responsible for it now." Now he is dismissed from his post, and the above will be questioned. ”
"I know all of this, but let me ask you, is this Chaozhou Navy all your people?" Liren asked slowly.
Xiong Zhizhou immediately said: "Hu Ye and the water army are not my people, he is a relative of a distant relative of Shi Xiangye. ”
Li Ren laughed and said, "Well, since this is the case, in seven days, the navy will all be handed over to my subordinates." ”
"Yes! Master Hou! The subordinate obeys the order! Xiong Zhizhou reacted quickly and agreed neatly.
"That's it! How about we have a drink at the Bear-sama's mansion today? After Li Ren walked down the case, he said to Xiong Zhizhou cordially.
Xiong Zhizhou was suddenly moved and said: "Master Hou can come to the cold house, Xiong is simply a puffy glitter, hehe, puffy splendor!" ”
Li Ren Yaoyao really admired Xiong Zhizhou, and he cried and laughed for a while. I patted him on the shoulder and said loudly, "Good! Let's have a drink today! All of Rihito's subordinates also laughed heartily, and the depression that had just begun swept away in the lobby.
During the banquet, Xiong Zhizhou accompanied everyone to drink, came to Liren's side and asked, "Master Hou, now that Qin Cha is dead, what should we do if we track it down?" ”
Li Ren squinted his eyes and said in a low voice: "You just take care of your business now, you don't have to worry about the rest, you will know the fruit in a few days." ”
"The subordinate obeys!" Xiong Zhizhou looked at Liren's casual smile while answering, and then realized that he had fallen into the trap of Hou Ye, but what can he do now? Chin Cha is dead, but he still caught it himself. Even if I have a hundred mouths, I can't tell. Now I can only see what tricks this Hou Ye has to deal with this matter after he just took refuge. Thinking of this, Xiong Zhizhou let go of all the things on his mind and accompanied the brothers to drink and dance with peace of mind.
Li Ren returned to his mansion happily today, and Chen Lin chased him directly to his study to ask to see him. After seeing Liren, Chen Lin asked in the first sentence: "Why did the lord want to kill Qincha, isn't this disrupting our plan?" ”
"Oh! It's Mr. Chen. Li Ren was reading a book just now, and when he heard the voice, he raised his head and saw that it was Chen Lin. Then he walked up to Chen Lin, helped him to his seat, and said, "Mr. Chen, don't be in a hurry when you sit down first." ”
"Lord, can I not be in a hurry? It won't take two days for the court to have a document from the imperial court, how can the Taoist priest explain? Chen Lin sighed and said.
Li Ren hurriedly ordered the maid to serve tea, and after Chen Lin took a sip of tea, Li Ren said: "Mr. Chen, you take a break and listen to me slowly." ”
Chen Lin couldn't do it anymore, so he could only listen to Liren and say slowly: "Mr. Chen, it's not that I don't act according to the plan, it's really that this Qincha is an old stubborn, you also know that such a person is in Cao Ying's heart and in Han, this is his way in the end." What will happen if I force it again? The imperial court has to report on the whereabouts of the Qincha every five days, but can we wait five days? No, so I thought that it would be better to have a ruined boat, kill Qincha and force Xiong Zhizhou to comply. And then we'll do this again~~~~~! ”
"Will it work?" Chen Lin asked.
"Hey, hey! Aren't there still people up there above us! With that, I don't think it should be a problem. Besides, they don't want me to finish it right now. Rihito smiled sinisterly.
Chen Lin lowered his head and thought about it and said, "Hey! Now it's a dead horse to be a live horse doctor, and if the Taoist priest can't beat me, I will accompany the lord to be a thief. ”
"Huh! Mr. Chen is really a real husband, hehe. Li Ren said to Chen Lin with a smile.
