Chapter 173: The clouds are in the blue sky

Although it has been deduced from some clues that the people of Zhongyitang did it, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to arrest them.

After years of war, the household registration files in various places have long been ineffective, and it is not enough to rely solely on the power of the government to find people.

Rivers and lakes! The only way to track down the forces of the rivers and lakes is to track the forces of the rivers and lakes.

Although there are many talented people under Liu Ming's singers, they are all collected from Fanbang and the border, and their role in Jingzhou is extremely limited.

"Why don't we use the power of the Sword Tower?" Li Xiaofei remembered the token and the unreliable code that the Sword Saint Ye Yunong gave him.

"The people of the Sword Tower are hard to find, and we don't know if the Sword Tower has arranged people here. If you know someone in the rivers and lakes, maybe it's a little useful! ”

Li Xiaofei immediately thought of a person - Yi Beijiu!

But now it is not easy to find Yi Beijiu, and no one knows the whereabouts of this person.

Li Xiaofei told Liu Mingge about the situation of Yi Beijiu, and Liu Mingge smiled: "He is in the dark, we are in the light, as long as we have movement, he can have a way to know!" ”

"The prime minister means that we are looking for Yi Beijiu with great fanfare?"

"No, you have to use a suitable method to find someone, now that you are a Qincha, you can send a sea fishing document to arrest Yi Beijiu, remember, the document must indicate that you are capturing this person alive!"

According to Liu Mingge's meaning, he soon issued a sea fishing document to arrest Yi Beijiu.

Yi Beijiu naturally saw the documents, but unfortunately he didn't guess what Liu Mingge meant, thinking that the government really wanted to arrest him.

Instead of fleeing, Yi Beijiu thought of asking the person who issued the paperwork to find out.

The payment of the sea fishing documents was left in the name of Li Xiaofei.

Yi Bei broke into the palace for a long time and was almost stabbed to death by Liu Mingge with a sword, but fortunately Li Xiaofei recognized him: "Prime Minister, keep people under the sword!" ”

"Li Xiaofei, what kind of good person are you pretending? Aren't you just going to arrest me? I'm throwing myself into the net now, and now you've got your wish! ”

"Brother Yi, this matter is a long story, please forgive me, let's sit down and talk about it in detail!"

Yi Beijiu closed his eyes: "Stop playing tricks!" Kill if you want to! ”

Liu Mingge shook his head: "You are also from the rivers and lakes, why are you so stupid?" You don't want to think about what you have worth going to the sea to catch papers, we just want to find you! If it really catches you and kills you, the paper will definitely write a bounty! ”

"I am the first swordsman in Wuling! Isn't it enough to qualify? Yi Beijiu opened his eyes, a little unconvinced

"Banmen get an axe! Lao Yi, do you know who this Prime Minister Liu is? ”

"Could it be Mr. Sword Mania?" Elbeku's face was contemptuous

Li Xiaofei was about to speak, but Liu Mingge stretched out his hand to stop, "This Wuling No. 1 swordsman?" Do you know a sword maniac? ”

"Of course he does, but he doesn't know me! This sword mad Mr. Liu is both civil and military, and how many people in the world want to see each other have never seen it. It's just that after so many years, there is no news from Mr. Liu! ”

"Hahahaha, don't be discouraged, in fact, this sword mad Mr. Liu already knows you! I've been in officialdom for a long time, and it's really interesting to occasionally meet you people who pride yourself on being heroes! ”

Li Xiaofei finally couldn't help it: "Lao Yi, you are really a nerd, this Prime Minister Liu is the sword mad Mr. Liu back then!" ”

"Impossible, Mr. Liu is personable and graceful, how can he be so old?"

"What year did you hear about Mr. Liu's name?"

"That was when I was thirteen! At that time, the sword maniac Liu Mingge killed dozens of Ouchi masters in one night, and the world shook! ”

"You're in your thirties now, aren't you?

Sir has been eighteen years old? ”

finally understood Yi Beijiu, a straightforward man, and Li Xiaofei had to immediately order someone to make a table of wine and food to entertain the first swordsman in Wuling.

But after Yi Beijiu knew that the middle-aged man in front of him was a sword maniac, he immediately lost his previous momentum, and stammered Mr. Former Mr., and after a while, he was called the Prime Minister of Sword Maniac.

Liu Mingge didn't care, but comforted Yi Beijiulai: "Young man, don't be nervous, I mean to come to you, I just want to see if you can find someone from Zhongyi Hall?" ”

"Zhongyitang? This is the number one gang in the world! I got a famous sword alliance with some brothers two years ago, but I was beaten by Zhongyitang, and I had to hide in Tibet! I thought that the forces of Zhongyitang had taken control of the imperial court, so I went down to the sea to catch the paperwork to arrest me! It turned out to be a misunderstanding! ”

"To tell you the truth, we are here to find Zhongyitang this time, and Zhongyitang has openly opposed the imperial court!"

"This, Mr. Liu, the rumor I heard on the rivers and lakes is that Zhongyitang has colluded with the local government and monopolized many businesses, how could they suddenly confront the imperial court?"

Liu Mingge looked at Li Xiaofei: "It's not that Lord Li came to rob them of their business, so he naturally rebelled!" By the way, based on what you have seen and heard, how many people are there in this Zhongyi Hall? ”

"It is said that there are 100,000 people all over the north and south of Dongting Lake! The best part is that they have warships hiding in the lake! Even the officers and soldiers did not dare to go deep into their lair! ”

"It turned out to be a bunch of water thieves! I said how did I escape so fast, there was no trace at all! In this way, the explanation makes sense! Li Xiaofei suddenly realized

"Our Lord Li, the enemy's position has appeared! It's up to you next! Liu Mingge began to eat the vegetables, as if the rest of the matter had nothing to do with him.

"Prime Minister Liu, without your help, how could my thousands of men and horses beat a hundred thousand people?" Li Xiaofei was a little anxious

"It's your business to lead troops to war, and I can't overstep my authority! I have to go back to Beijing to get back to my life! By the way, remember to pickle fifty big fish more than one person in Dongting Lake and bring them back to me! ”

Li Xiaofei couldn't cry or laugh, and before he could skim the eight characters, Liu Mingge lied to him first.

"Okay, good, Prime Minister Liu Cheng ordered, and the lower officials will do it!"

"Mr. Liu, you also think too highly of Lord Li, thousands of people want to exterminate Zhongyi Hall?" Yi Beijiu also felt that this sword madness Liu Mingge was too crazy!

"No, I didn't count on him, I waited for the thunder from the sky to kill the people of Zhongyitang, and by the way, I had to issue a proclamation before I left! Tell them that the true nature has led the thunder to kill them! ”

Li Xiaofei and Yi Beijiu and the people around them all laughed, and none of them believed what Liu Mingge said.

Liu Mingge was full of food and drink, so he led Di Jing away, and when he left, Li Xiaofei took the officials to send them out of the city for thirty miles.

Many people also came to see the fortune teller's dress

"The gentleman who told us fortunes turned out to be the prime minister!"

"He said that he would lead the thunder of the sky to kill the people of the Zhongyi Hall!"

"Don't believe that, believe in science!"

"Yes, where is there any thunder, it's just that the court is out of line, and it's a matter of nonsense!"

After Liu Mingge left, Li Xiaofei and Feng Hengshan and Zhang Mengqi also rushed to Jingling and Wuchang with 6,000 soldiers and horses.

The goal has been decided, and all that remains is to exterminate the people of Zhongyitang.

To enter Dongting Lake, the first stop is Huarong County, and when he arrived in Huarong County, Li Xiaofei knew that there was no county order appointed by the imperial court here.

A few years ago, it was controlled by Zhongyitang, but it was paid to the imperial court on time

The court has not sent anyone to pay taxes, and it has not been discovered.

When Zhenqin encountered a fake county order, he was put on in a few clicks, and this fake county order was also prepared, and the names of officials at all levels of the court were written down.

But Li Xiaofei insisted that he was fake, because this fake county order could actually recite the contents of Huarong County's population, grain, grass, prison, etc.

"I've been an official for a few years, and I haven't seen a county magistrate who can know how many people in this county have and how much grain and grass, and you even know how many cattle and sheep there are, it must be fake!"

The fake county order couldn't help it: "Your uncle, the real county order only drinks and doesn't care about things, Lao Tzu is in charge of Tianxingdao, the people of Huarong County live and work in peace and contentment, and they pay a lot of taxes to you, why do you have to come to find trouble?" ”

"We are also doing the right thing for heaven! You killed the officials of the imperial court and set up a private court to exploit the people! Arrest you and punish you to show the law of the country! Sima Ke beside Li Xiaofei said that what was righteous and awe-inspiring

Li Xiaofei hesitated for a while: "It seems that you are very unconvinced!" Go and tell dozens of people not to be afraid, and tell them not to be afraid, and tell everyone to come and correct the crime of this false county order!" ”

In a few moments, hundreds of people came

"This fake county order overcharged my family's three-dollar money!"

"This fake county order didn't even let go of my broom, and it was also scraped away!"

"This fake county order beat my son!"

"This fake county order beat my daughter-in-law!"

"This fake county order sentenced my family's Tian Duo to the old man of the Li family!"

"This fake county order ate half of my fish at my house!"

"He's not human, he also took three cabbages for the New Year at home!"

The people were crying and scolding, but the fake county order laughed: "Yes, I am guilty, my crime is unforgivable!" I thought I could be an official! Even if you can't change the world, you can change the land of a county! Now it seems, this is a joke! Do it! ”

Li Xiaofei coughed: "No, let's wait for them to finish speaking, you won't be convinced of this sesame mung bean matter!" ”

Zhang Mengqi looked at the crowd and glared: "Say it one by one!" Don't mention the sesame mung bean thing! ”

The crowd began to shout again

"The year before last, he divided my family's grain equally among others!"

"Yes, the year before last, there was a flood! He gave us moldy millet to eat! ”

A child rushed over and shouted, "Shut up! Su County Ling is a good person! He saved us all! You are all going to take revenge! ”

Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent, and an old man cried: "You stupid boy! If he is not condemned to death today, we will not be able to live! ”

The kid was also stunned, but then raised his head and shouted at Li Xiaofei, "Do you really want to kill us?" ”

Feng Hengshan had already unsheathed his knife, just waiting for Li Xiaofei's order.

Zhang Mengqi also looked at Li Xiaofei, and the fake county magistrate surnamed Su knelt down and kowtowed at this time

"One person does things and one person does! I'm guilty of a terrible crime! Kill me! Do no more iniquity! ”

Li Xiaofei looked at the child, remembered himself who hid in the tree and fled for his life, and waved his hand: "Stop!" Let them go! Don't even kill this Su County order, take it into prison first! ”

Zhang Mengqi and Feng Hengshan were stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Put away the knife!" Let go! ”

The people knelt down together: "Thank you, Lord spare your life!" Please be merciful, don't kill Su County! He's a good guy! ”

It turned out that before, the families of the people who were called were all guarded by Zhang Mengqi and Feng Hengshan, so these people had to come to count the charges of the Su County Order.
