Chapter 10 The Weight of Yangzhou
A bowl of cold river water was splashed on Shan Zong's face, but he didn't wake up immediately as Xu You imagined. Facing Zuo Yan's suspicious gaze, Xu You coughed dryly, knowing that he had made an empirical mistake, Shan Zong was knocked down by Zuo Yan with internal force, and it was not a coma caused by a collision, how could it be effective to pour cold water like he did on TV?
"Seeing that he was quite angry just now, help him lower the fire first!" Xu You turned back to the futon and sat down, and said, "Wind Tiger, wake him up!" ”
Zuo Yan kicked out, and Shan Zong immediately regained consciousness, his hands and feet were tied with a fisherman's knot by a strong rope, and the more he struggled, the tighter he became, and few people were able to break free. He shook his head, the water on his head flowed to his mouth, subconsciously stretched out his tongue and licked it, and said angrily: "Chu Man dares to insult me? ”
It's hard for him to get wet clothes, and he drilled into the river twice in a row, and even knew that someone had splashed water on his head, Xu You said lightly: "There are three rules of Confucianism, which are amiable but not robbed, close but not forced, and killed but not humiliated." If you rob people first and then force them, will you remember that you are 'not to be dishonored'? Besides, if you are a thief, you are not allowed to be in the temple, and you are not allowed to be in Lishu, people hate you, and dogs are suspicious of dogs, how can Confucian etiquette be applied to people like you? ”
"You!"
Shan Zongqi's seven orifices were smoking, and he opened his mouth to spray back, but for some reason, his always flexible tongue knotted when he met Xu You, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, and finally shouted: "I'm angry!" ”
Xu You picked up a cup of hot tea, took a sip of his head, and said, "Let's talk about it, confess leniently, resist strictly, who are you?" What does it have to do with Guo Mian? What does it have to do with Yangzhou Thorn Mansion? ”
Be lenient in confession and strict in resistance?
What the mountain sect is doing is the business of robbing wealth at sea, what kind of strange things have been encountered, and some of the money hidden is tighter than the head of a hundred-year-old turtle, so it is necessary to torture and torture it. Therefore, I am not skilled in extorting confessions by torture, and I dare not compare with the cool officials in Jinling Huangsha Prison, but at least I understand it a lot. But I have never heard of a torturer who would start with such a clear sentence and end up with the core questioning, and confess to be forgiven? Trick the kids!
Shan Zong snorted and said, "Want to know? Go and ask Guo Mian and ask Liu Quan......"
Xu You put down the teacup, sighed softly, and said, "Maybe I should ask the Hanoi Mountain ......."
The Shan Sect was stunned again, and his momentum immediately decreased by a few points, and he said: "The Hanoi Mountain Clan is the Hanoi Mountain Clan, close my fart...... What do you love to ask! ”
"With your appearance, it is quite different from ordinary people, it should not be difficult to inquire! If you are really a child of the Shan clan and go to the sea to be a thief, aren't you afraid of affecting the reputation of Juyuan Gong? ”
"Where did the barbarians make a lot of nonsense, it's really smelly......"
The corners of Xu You's lips curled, cut off his words, and said: "If you want to scold again, I don't care if you are a member of the Shan clan or not, immediately send someone to spread the pirates along the river The mountain sect was born in the Hanoi Shan clan, and the blood of Juyuan Gong flowed on his body, but he killed people and robbed money, raped and plundered, and his character was indecent, and he was shameless, and he was the most disgusting, despicable and inhumane beast in Chu State!" ”
Shan Zong looked at Xu You in amazement, and then shook his head and said, "I don't think I'm a good person, but I can compare with you and bow down!" But he refused to curse again no matter what.
"Each other, each other!"
Xu You walked over, squatted down in front of him, and said, "Since you don't scold people, let's talk casually." If you want to tell the truth, I will let you leave the ship after Xiling County, and I will never break my promise. ”
Shanzong was silent, Xu You knew that he couldn't pull his face, and if he didn't speak, he acquiesced, and asked: "I'm just curious, aren't you the person who assassinated Shifu, colluded with Liu Yuanjun to frame Guo Mian, how could you still be afraid that Mo Yundu would chase and kill?" ”
"Be smart!" Shan Zong rolled his eyes and said, "Who told you that I am in the same group as Liu Laogou?" By the way, I remembered Lao Tzu's ......" He still remembered Xu You's warning, and quickly changed his name, saying: "I'm angry, I just came up from the bottom of the boat, and I was going to borrow you a little porridge and rice to fill my hunger on the way, but I heard what you said in a heartfelt way I partnered with Liu Laogou to frame Guo Mian, and he was angry for a while before he started to arrest the boatman and the black lady, and planned to teach you a good lesson, and his mother's ...... As a result, the self who was harmed was taught a lesson. ”
Xu You raised his eyebrows, and Shan Zong said with a bitter face: "This is not scolding, this is something that you are used to, and you can't change it for a while!" ”
Xu You actually doesn't have much ill will towards this mountain sect, this person is clever, his words are interesting, and his means are also powerful, if it weren't for the autumn equinox, he learned to become a white tiger by mistake, extremely domineering, and he couldn't resist in a short distance, and if he changed to another little girl, even if he doubled his skills, it would be difficult to really pose a real threat to him. And his posture is free and easy, with the flamboyance and wildness of a pirate, different from the ubiquitous rules and constraints in civilized society, if it weren't for the completely different environment in which the two of them lived, Xu You wouldn't mind making friends with him!
"Since it's not all the way, then what did you offend Liu Yuanjun for?"
"This ...... It's a long story! ”
"It's okay, it will take a while to get to Xiling, we have time!"
Shanzong couldn't hide from it, so he had to explain his grievances with Liu Quan 1510. It turned out that the steward of Liuquan's mansion was ordered to transport a shipload of pearls, jade, ivory, glass and other treasures from Panyu to Wu County, but for some reason, he did not hang the flag of the Liu clan on the ship, so he was robbed by the Ming pirates when he passed through Huangzhou.
Originally, you would have robbed it, whether you were an ordinary businessman or a family gatekeeper, people were pirates in this business, and wouldn't it be too unethical to see a ship full of wealth and not rob it? But the problem is that Liu Quan is not an ordinary businessman, nor is he an ordinary family gatekeeper, nor is he an insignificant little person in the family.
He is the history of Yangzhou Thorn!
The history of the Southern Dynasty, from the first year of Song Yongchu Liu Yu ascended the throne, to Chen Zhenming three years later the lord was captured by the Sui army, a total of 49 people were appointed to Yangzhou Assassin History, including 40 royal relatives, only 9 ministers with different surnames. And in the past 140 years, these nine ministers with different surnames have only served for more than 20 years. When Liu Muzhi admonished Liu Yu, there was a sentence of "Yangzhou is the fundamental system, not a dummy", from which it can be seen that Yangzhou is the most important place in the world's states, and Yangzhou is the most important place in the world, and Yangzhou is controlled, and then the world is passed, such as Liu Yu, Xiao Daocheng, Xiao Yan, Chen Baxian, all of them are Yangzhou assassination history and then Yangzhou pastor, and then ascend to the emperor's throne.
Liu Quan had just left the town of Yangzhou at the beginning of the year, and was very trusted by An Zidao, which was not only the southeast barrier of the imperial court, but also the pillar of the eternal country.
Such a person, if a pirate dares to provoke, he really kicked it to the iron plate!
Knowing that the treasure ship was robbed, Liu Quan did not send troops or crusade, but only sent the dead to Minghai to give an ultimatum, and he wanted to return the ship within three days of the thief, otherwise there would be no peace in Minghai. The thieves in Minghai knew that they couldn't afford to provoke them, although they relied on the advantage of the terrain, they were not afraid that he would really send troops to suppress them, but if they let the naval warships harass them along the coast day and night, it would really affect the performance too much.
Because of this, Shanzong couldn't swallow this breath, and sneaked inland alone, following the treasure ship all the way to Wu County. Later, it was found that the ship was going to be transported to Jinling, so it followed, to a certain place in Jingkou, and found an opportunity to burn the ship, but when it was set on fire, it was found traces, and then ran away all the way, chased all the way, and ran to Taihu Lake to hide for more than half a month, and finally hid on Guo Mian's Jinjing boat that happened to pass by, and was blocked in the mouth of the Changhe Jinkou, and it was also a bitter life!
Xu You stared at Shanzong's eyes, snorted coldly, turned around and left, and said: "Fenghu, take out 100,000 yuan, starting from the next wharf, all counties and counties will hire people to publicize the origin and conduct of this person in Shanzong, I want to know the world within ten months!" ”
"Huh? You don't talk to count......" Shan Zong was dumbfounded, he didn't understand what he said, why did he suddenly turn his face?
"As I said earlier, you must tell the truth, but there are too many inaccuracies in what I just said. In order not to be unconvinced in your heart, I just ask, just because the ship could not be burned, Liu Yuanjun personally wrote to the counties, so that dozens of Mo Yun have been chasing and killing you for so long? Either you think too highly of yourself, or underestimate Liu Quan and Mo Yundu, so elite, how can you have time to play with you? ”
Shanzong hesitated for a moment, and saw that Xu You was really going to leave, so he hurriedly said: "Count you amazing, I accidentally touched a cabin on the ship before burning the ship, and his mother, who knew that it was so coincidental, I actually met Liu Quan's six girls washing ......"
