Chapter 205: Murder and Arson

Seeing Wang Jing's appearance, Hou Shigui knew that most of the matter had been completed, and he was about to add a bowl of oil and vinegar.

Who Cheng thought that a discordant voice immediately sounded from the crowd:

"The county lord wants to listen to this dog thief's nonsense, if he is really coming for you, why don't you take the brocade clothes and ride out of Beijing together?

On the contrary, he still took this risky trick, he was obviously ......"

Who is so discerning?

Hou Shigui looked up and saw that Huang Honglang was desperately trying to squeeze out of the crowd, and as soon as he turned his head, he shouted at Bao Ji:

"Bao Ji!"

Bao Ji got the order, and immediately rushed towards Huang Honglang with two brocade guards.

Seeing this, Huang Honglang was also afraid, and was about to turn around and run away, no matter how much he squeezed, he couldn't squeeze into the crowd.

Instead, he was thrown back by Bao Ji like a chick with the back collar of his coat, and fell to the ground.

He rolled on the ground and was covered in dust, and he knew that he was going to die, and he let it go:

"County Zun, you listen to my ......"

Before the words fell, I heard the sound of a blade unsheathed behind me, and then I felt my chest together, and looked down.

The tip of a blade had passed through his heart, and scarlet blood continued to flow from the blade in threads.

After killing Huang Honglang here, Bao Ji turned his head to look at the frightened people in the public hall behind him:

"Whoever dares to be impatient will end up like this!"

A county was killed on the spot, and the Jinyi guards didn't feel anything.

This Jinzhong County government has done a lot of evil, and if you wring out one at random, you will not be wronged if you kill it ten times.

If it weren't for the presence of the commander, the brocade guards would have wanted to applaud the case.

It was the officials of Jinzhong County who saw that Huang Honglang, who was high in the past, died like this.

Under the sorrow of the rabbit's death and fox, his heart was also full of fear.

A county and county, these brocade guards will kill when they say they will kill, not to mention themselves and other little people?

Especially that Wang Jing, although he was already disheartened, the visible Huang Honglang died in front of him, and he was still trembling with fear.

"There is no need to be afraid."

Hou Shigui stretched out his hand and pressed Wang Jing's shoulder, and his tone was gentle, as if he was comforting a frightened child:

"The county also knows that the official is greedy for money and lustful, if the county is willing to cut the meat, it can also give the official the confidence to explain to His Majesty, even if the county is to let the county respect, it is not impossible."

Wang Jing was already desperate, but now Hou Shigui gave him hope again, so he immediately grabbed the life-saving straw and seemed to beg:

"Whatever the commander wants, just say, the concubines in my house, gold and silver treasures, as long as I have them, I can give them.

If I don't have it, I'll rob it for the commander! ”

Wang Jing, the county honorable, took the lead, and the rest of the people in the public court naturally had no confidence to insist anymore, and cried at Hou Shigui one after another:

"There are 100,000 taels of silver in the Xiaguan's house, I wish to ......"

"There are hundreds of southern maids hidden in the lower official's house, and if the commander is willing, the lower official is willing to offer it with both hands."

Hearing that these people were scrambling to send their family property to themselves one by one, Hou Shigui smiled slightly and said:

"Don't worry, come one by one, after satisfying your own officials, you also have to satisfy Your Majesty, where are the women who have been captured by you? You should have a record of who bought it, right? ”

As everyone scrambles to get to the bottom, plus Hou Shigui uses the skills learned in some film and television dramas in later generations.

Three days later, Hou Shigui looked at the room full of accounts and felt shocked.

After a few years of hard work, these people have taken nearly 10,000 women captive!

Tens of thousands of people were killed and buried in the forest outside the city because they were looking for their families.

In addition, the most shocking thing is the net worth of these people.

is just a scribe who is not in the product, and there are more than 50,000 grains of silver tattooed at home!

There is also a greedy rich man, whose house is larger than the Hou family's Xiling Marquis Mansion, and there are hundreds of beautiful concubines.

is Your Majesty today, and since he ascended the throne, there are only thirty or forty people in the harem!

And any official family can also confiscate tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Compared with the officials of the branch division in Beijing, all of them can be regarded as Qing officials.

At this moment, Hou Shigui was sitting in the house, waiting for everyone to count the final accounts.

However, before the statisticians came out, Lu Xing'an came back:

"Childe, I'...... I ......"

Lu Xingan knelt on one knee in the house, I was for a long time, and I didn't come out one, two, three.

It's just that those red eyes are full of grievances and self-blame.

Jin Yi Ti rides, he brought it, but it was four days late!

When Hou Shigui saw his appearance, he only comforted:

"The court is deep, and it's no wonder you, you don't need to blame yourself, it's because I didn't think it through."

"Childe!!"

Lu Xingan finally cried.

In the past few days, he has been worrying about the safety of his son all the time, and he is worried that the officials of Jinzhong County will take risks and do something unspeakable.

On the way here, he had already thought about it, if Gongzi really had something long and two short, he would take Tiqi to slaughter the Yamen of Jinzhong County, and then commit suicide to apologize to Gongzi.

But after he entered Jinzhong County with Tiqi, he found that Jinyiwei had taken control of the situation.

While feeling very happy in my heart, I also felt a strong sense of self-blame.

I thought that when Gongzi first joined the Beijing Division, he was in a difficult situation, but he didn't help Gongzi in any way, but lay on the hospital bed like a waste for several months.

And now, Childe is in a situation in Jinzhong, and he is ordered to be in danger, but he has not done things well......

Blaming himself deeply, he wanted to commit suicide in front of his son to show his loyalty.

Who would have thought, Childe not only did not blame himself, but also took the responsibility on himself.

Thinking of the grievances he encountered in Chujing, Lu Xingan couldn't hold back the sour tears in his eyes, and cried directly in front of Hou Shigui.

"Lu boy, in a few months, you will be weak, crying like this in front of your son, what kind of man are you?

Hurry up and stop, don't lose my Xiling Erlang's backbone! ”

Bao Ji really couldn't get used to seeing Lu Boy's crying appearance, so he stepped forward and pulled him up and gave him a few big ear scrapers.

drew Lu Xing'an for a while.

Hou Shigui saw this, and he didn't stop it, although there were force majeure reasons, Kelu boy did his errand after all.

These slaps should be punished.

However, Yang Heken let Ti ride out of Beijing, explaining what he did in Jinzhong County, it is estimated that it has reached his ears, right?

If this matter ferments, Yang He's reputation will be ruined, and he will most likely be dragged by him to be buried with his worthless reputation.

Thinking of this, Hou Shigui said:

"Bao Ji, go and ask Mr. Wang, has the general ledger been calculated?"

Xiang Xu was bedridden to recuperate, Wang Cheng died again, and now Hou Shigui is around, and only Bao Ji and Lu Xing'an are listening.

Not long after Bao Ji left, he returned with Wang Hou.

Wang Hou held a thick account in front of Hou Shigui, and it was winter, but he still wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead before he said:

"Childe, it's been calculated, and the confiscated income has a total of more than 15.79 million taels of silver."

Hou Shigui nodded and said:

"Fifteen million? Yes, it just so happened that Tiqi also came, so he copied those county guards together, and if he resisted, he would be slaughtered.

Lu boy, this is your chance to make up for it. ”
