Volume 4: Fighting against the King of Luoyang Chapter 257: Dazhi County wants to blame Bao Zheng
Vice General Zhang walked into the hall with more than a dozen men in Tsing Yi and came to Li Yinglong, all of whom were foremen in the workshop.
Vice General Zhang shouted to the foremen: Kneel.
All the foremen hurriedly knelt down to Li Yinglong.
Li Yinglong raised his hand and shouted at the "bang" remake on the coffee table: Bastard, report your name to me.
A few people kneeling in front of them were busy reporting:
The adult, the villain is called Zhang Fusheng.
Adult, villain is called Li Youcai.
Adult, villain is called Hu Laifa.
Adults, villains are called ------
After the foremen finished reporting their names, Li Yinglong raised his hand and slapped the coffee table again and scolded sharply: "Grandma Ni Ganpi, do you know what crime you have committed?
All the foremen said in unison: My lord, I don't know.
Li Yinglong smiled coldly and said: I don't know, okay, let this county tell you, you have partnered to open a workshop for minting counterfeit coins, you have committed the great crime of exterminating the nine clans, do you know what it means to exterminate the nine clans? That is, not only to kill your grandparents, grandparents, your father, your mother, your whole family, even your third uncle and second uncle, seven aunts and eight aunts, etc., all the relatives who are touched by the edge will be killed, you say, the crime you have committed is not big, is it serious.
Hearing this, all the foremen were so frightened that their faces turned blue, and they hurriedly shouted: My lord, wronged, this money casting workshop is not opened by us.
Li Yinglong asked: Who opened it if you didn't drive it?
All the foremen said in unison: My lord, we don't know.
Hearing this, Li Yinglong smiled, but he smiled very coldly, and said with a smile: I don't know, the answer is so simple, you are watching over the workers in the workshop, but you said that you don't know who opened the workshop, and you are deceiving the county as a three-year-old child.
Li Fusheng said: My lord, we were originally from the imperial village, and we were later selected to be sent underground to be foremen, and we really don't know who opened this underground workshop.
Li Youcaidao: My lord, although we are in charge of the workers in the underground workshop, as soon as we come up from the ground, we are also controlled, and we are not allowed to touch anyone; Second, don't take half a step out of your own residence, otherwise your life will be in danger, so we don't know who opened this underground workshop.
Li Yinglong smiled and said: It's great if you don't know, because the county knows.
Turning his head to the wise man who made the record: Master, you write so, the underground coinage workshop in Huangzhuang was jointly opened by twelve people, including foremen Zhang Youcai, Zhang Fusheng, and Hu Laifa, and the purpose of opening the underground coinage workshop was to use these coins to accumulate grass and grain, recruit troops and horses to build the counter of the court, and Ni Mo Ganpi's grandmother wanted to be the emperor himself.
Hearing this, all the foremen were so frightened that they kowtowed and shouted in unison: My lord, it's not like this, spare your life!
Li Yinglong said: It's not yours, then you come up with evidence, the evidence is the person who opened the workshop, so it has nothing to do with you at all.
Zhang Fusheng hurriedly said: I know, this workshop must have been opened by Lu Fei, the chief manager of our imperial village, and he wanted to rebel and become the emperor.
Li Youcai also hurriedly said: There is also the deputy manager Wei Laibao, who also wants to rebel and become the emperor.
Hu Laifa was not far behind, and shouted: And that ------
Li Yinglong waved his hand to cut off his words and said: Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense and arrange people, the three of you still have a bit of a score as Zhang Fusheng said.
After that, he paused, and then said: "That's it, this county will give you a little hint, just now this county interrogated your deputy governor Wei Laibao, he confessed to four people, these four people are, Lu Fei, the chief manager of your Huangzhuang, Zhao Xiaowangye of Luoyang Palace, Xiahou Yinglan, the head of Tianmen Sect, and Bao Zheng, the prefect of Luoyang, think about it and see if it is these four people.
The foremen wanted to excuse themselves, and shouted in unison: "My lord, we remembered, just these four people."
Hearing this, Huang Gongwang jumped up from his seat in shock, ran to Li Yinglong and whispered: Hey, what are you doing, what does this matter have to do with Governor Bao's mansion.
Li Yinglong smiled and said: Do the seven people in our county government who were arrested by him have anything to do with him?
Hearing this, Huang Gongwang was stunned for a moment, understood, and said with a smile: You kid has a lot of ghosts, and it's really not long-sighted to be against you.
Li Yinglong asked Zhizhi: Master, has the confession been recorded?
Zhizhi nodded and said, "My lord, it's recorded."
Li Yinglong ordered the dozen or so foremen kneeling on the ground: You all stand up, sign the confession, and put your own handprints.
The foremen got up from the ground and walked to the table, signed their names and fingerprints under the confession.
Li Yinglong picked up the confession and looked at it, smiled, folded it and put it in his arms, and then instructed Deputy General Zhang on the side: Vice General Zhang, you take the thousand soldiers and horses in the village to stay in the Huangzhuang, you must be optimistic about the money in the treasury and the criminals who are caught, don't make any mistakes, I have other things to do.
Vice General Zhang replied: Yes, my lord.
Li Yinglong turned to Feng Tiancheng, Huang Gongwang, and Zhizhi in a consultative tone and said: If the three of them have nothing to do, can they stay in Huangzhuang to assist General Zhang, I am afraid that the people of the Tianmen Sect will return to make trouble, and those people are not something that the soldiers can deal with.
Hearing this, the three of them nodded and said in unison: Okay, no problem.
Li Yinglong arched his hand to the three of them and said: Then thank you.
With that, he turned around and hurried out.
The three of them also gave each other gifts.
Li Yinglong hurriedly walked out of the gate of the imperial village.
Wang Tianming hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Master Li, is the matter in the village over?"
Li Yinglong smiled and said: It's over, thank you for your great assistance, this county will definitely report this matter to the emperor and give you a great credit.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming said suspiciously: Master Li, what kind of credit do you want to repay for us, Ben Shuai still doesn't know what happened.
Hearing this, Li Yinglong was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and patted his head and said with a smile: Look at me, I am really confused, why did I forget to tell you why I came. I got a secret report, someone in the underground of Huangzhuang privately built a mint workshop, every day from this workshop to create a large number of counterfeit money, if these counterfeit money into the market, will cause great harm to the country, in order to verify this matter, two days ago I mixed into the Huangzhuang to investigate, sure enough, I was discovered, so I went to your Beida camp to transfer troops to Huangzhuang to handle this case.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming exclaimed: What, someone made counterfeit money in Huangzhuang? Oh, my God! This is a great crime to destroy the nine clans, these people are too bold, who did it?
Li Yinglong said: The big boss ran away when he heard the news, and only caught some small minions, but the coinage workshop is there, and they have made a library of counterfeit coins, which is enough.
After that, he raised his hand and patted Wang Tianming on the shoulder and said: Commander Wang, you have made great contributions to helping this county solve this big case, and this county must be able to play the emperor's role.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming said modestly: This case was solved by Master Li, how can we have any merit.
Li Yinglong said: Who said that there is no merit, if it weren't for the fact that your Beida Battalion sent troops and horses to surround Huangzhuang in time to assist me, would I have been able to enter Huangzhuang with dozens of people from my small county government, so in this case of Huangzhuang, your Wang Commander has a great merit.
Who doesn't like credit, especially such a big credit, hearing this, Wang Tianming said happily: Then thank you.
After that, he asked, "Master Li, what should we do next?"
Li Yinglong said: I asked Vice General Wang to lead a thousand soldiers into the village to garrison the Huangzhuang to show me the evidence of the crimes and the criminals, and the two thousand soldiers and horses outside the village should follow me into Luoyang City.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming was stunned and asked: Why, there is also a black workshop for coinage in Luoyang City?
Li Yinglong said: That's not it, that's the case, when I was interrogating the prisoners in the village just now, some of the prisoners confessed that this matter had something to do with some people in the government office, and I wanted to take the hot iron to investigate, but now the new prefect is very powerful, there are hundreds of government soldiers, and the people in our county government can't deal with them, so I have to ask you for a favor.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming said happily: Lord Li doesn't have to be too modest, you have the Empress Dowager's jade plate and the emperor's holy metaphor for the transfer of troops in your hand, and our soldiers in the Beida Battalion are ready to be dispatched at any time, please give an order.
Li Yinglong said: Okay, then I'm not welcome, please lead the king to lead the troops into Luoyang City to surround the government for me first, and none of the people inside are allowed to be released, and wait for me to investigate the case.
Wang Tianming was stunned for a moment and asked, "Won't Master Li go with us?"
Li Yinglong said: I'll go back to the county office, and then go there.
Wang Tianming said: Okay, let's go first.
Turned around and shouted: "Chinese army, pass on my order, quickly assemble the team."
