Chapter 272: Return to Beijing (3)
Looking back, he saw that the Xiling barbarian had walked in front of him, and Master Zhou thought to himself that he would handle family affairs by himself, what did he follow blindly? Then he also said:
"The command makes you don't need to care, these mothers-in-law are lacking in discipline and lack of education, and it depends on how the old man disciplines!"
After that, he didn't care about Hou Shigui, so he handed the torch to the woman's face.
But before he could hand out the torch, he heard the sound of a knife whistling, and then he felt that his right hand holding the torch was cold, and he looked at it, and he saw that he still had any right hand, and some were just a broken arm, and blood was constantly rolling out of the broken arm.
Seeing this scene, Master Zhou didn't scream miserably, but the beauties in the house screamed one by one:
"Help! Kill!! ”
As soon as they shouted, the servants of the Zhou family and the Jinyi guards who were waiting outside the house immediately rushed in, and when they saw the scene in front of them, before the servants of the Zhou family exclaimed, those Jinyi guards saw that the commander was moving, and they no longer delayed, and they drew their knives and stabbed the servants beside them.
Hou Shigui cut off Master Zhou's head with a knife, and then wiped the blade with his clothes, and then said to the panicked beauties in the house:
"This official is Hou Shigui, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and I heard that this Zhou Fu did something that lost his conscience and damaged the law, and he came to do the Great Chu Law, so you don't need to worry!
Afterwards, as long as it is found out that it is a woman who has been forcibly abducted, she can be handed out and left on her own. ”
After speaking, I thought of some concepts of this era, and thought that even if these women returned home, I am afraid that they would be criticized by their families, relatives, and people in the village, and forced to commit suicide by throwing themselves into a well.
After a moment of conversation, he said again:
"If you don't want to go home, this official can send someone to take you to Xiling!
No one will know about your past, and as long as you are willing to work, let alone have enough to eat, you can have money to spend your old age safely! ”
Hearing this, these women only felt that they had met a great good person, and they bowed their heads and bowed:
"Thank you, good people! Thank you for the kindness! ”
And Hou Shigui said to the brocade guards outside the door:
"You and the official sword mountain and the sea of fire, it can be regarded as a fateful friendship, this week's wealth, the official does not take a penny, as long as you can see it, you can take it, even if you take it!
In the future, if anyone asks, this official will endorse you!! But if there are those who resist, shoot and kill! ”
Hearing this, the brocade guards were even more excited than those beauties.
When he was in Chujing, Hou Shigui also connived at them to plunder wealth.
But there are also rules, the wealth robbed by Jinyiwei can only be robbed of what his body can fit, and cannot be pretended with other things.
In this way, every time the big guy handles a case, the most people only rob hundreds of taels of silver.
But now it's different, the commander said that as long as you can see and move, the big guys can take it for themselves!
Then the brocade guards scattered.
Coupled with Hou Shigui's sentence: But if there are those who resist, they will be killed.
For a while, Zhou Zhuang was shrouded in a bloody storm.
The Zhou family, but anyone who hesitated for a moment to hand over their belongings was cut down in a pool of blood.
Fortunately, those small households and beauties, Master Zhou is also stingy, and he is not even willing to buy them a piece of jewelry, but let them escape.
Seeing such a crazy scene, Hou Shigui must have said in his heart, secretly said, these brocade guards have done this, and they can be used by me!
After looting Zhouzhuang, Hou Shigui arranged for people to send those beauties to play in Xiling, and he took a group of brocade guards back to Beijing by boat.
He had just returned to Beijing, and before he even entered the city gate, he saw Guo Lianqing and Bao Sen standing outside the city gate.
Seeing Hou Shigui, Guo Lianqing hurriedly trotted forward.
The Jinyi guards who followed Hou Shigui all knew Guo Lianqing, and they didn't dare to stop them.
Guo Lianqing saw Hou Shigui turn over and dismount and look at herself, she had countless things to say to him, but now she found that she couldn't say anything, but instead stepped forward and hugged Hou Shigui and began to cry.
Hou Shigui put his arm around her shoulders and comforted:
"I know all your suffering, and rest assured, I will not spare those people."
Zhou Xuan and Gao Fei took advantage of their distress to come to Tianyalou to rob and bully people while they were in trouble, and Hou Shigui had learned about it from the letter sent by Bao Sen.
He never expected that a dignified Jingzhao Mansion Yin, the son of the emperor's favorite county lord, would be so narrow-minded.
But since they dare to provoke the people around them, don't think that the death of a Gao clan is over!
After Hou Shigui entered Beijing, he did not return to Tianyalou, but ran towards the palace non-stop, and waited outside the palace gate for a while, and saw Zheng Yang hurriedly walking out of the palace:
"Childe, Your Majesty is looking for you to see you."
As Zheng Yang came to the main hall where Yang He was, Hou Shigui had just finished his salute when he heard Yang He's voice in the hall:
"You are so majestic, all the way south, killing more than 10,000 people!"
Hou Shigui saluted respectfully and replied:
"They are all chaotic ministers and thieves, and everyone will be punished! As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the minister is just doing his part. ”
"What a thing!!"
Yang He slapped the table, and he didn't know who he was angry at:
"If those ministers can be like you, why should I be so worried?!
Aiqing, thank you for your hard work! ”
Yang He's good impression of Hou Shigui now is really incomprehensible, he copied Yuwen's family, and sent nearly 10 million taels of real money and silver to himself, these treasury is not only no longer empty, but also very full!
This is called how Yang He doesn't like Hou Shigui's cash cow?
Listening to Yang He's last sentence, Hou Shigui pretended to be grateful:
"Minister, it's not hard!! It's just a minister, it's really hard to go back to God!! ”
"Huh?"
Seeing Hou Shigui's posture, Yang He frowned, and asked:
"Aiqing, what's the matter? Let's take a closer look. ”
Only then did Hou Shigui speak, and he told him everything he had encountered along the way to the south.
Especially the immortal seeds issued by the imperial court are firmly controlled by the major families, and they are on the heads of the people who have no flow cloth clothes.
Coupled with all kinds of taxes, the people went bankrupt and their families were ruined, and many people were forced to join the beggar gang.
There are even some county towns that are full of beggars, and ordinary people only account for two-third tenths of those beggars.
I heard Hou Shigui talking about his southbound journey with tears in his eyes.
Yang He's face was so angry that he couldn't speak.
He originally thought that no matter how greedy those families were, they would not be so greedy.
But as soon as Jin Yiwei stood up, he knew that he had underestimated the greed of people's hearts after all.
I thought that the matter of immortal seeds could appease the people of Dachu, but I didn't think that those immortal seeds were in the hands of the people who didn't have a single grain! !
Instead, it was taken by those families who were full of fat stomachs!
That's the immortal seed that the immortals gave me! That's the immortal seed that I used to support the community, for thousands of years!
It's hateful that these families take it for themselves! Hateful!
At this time, Yang He still did not think about the people and the people of the world.
