Chapter 273: Dismounting? Non-existent (below)
At this time, there were already seven or eight government officials outside the hall who heard the news, and when they heard the prefect's order, they wanted to rush up and take Sun Tu, but Yang Zhi, who was a little hesitant in Luda, quickly took a step forward and wanted to stop it. But he heard Sun Tu suddenly straighten up and shouted in a deep voice: "Who dares!" As he spoke, his gaze suddenly swept towards those errand soldiers, and his body also exuded a terrifying aura of slaughter.
Since the crossing, Sun Tu has not added many lives to his hands, the higher the official position, the stronger the evil aura that people dare not despise, just one look, one word, immediately frightened the hearts of those errand soldiers, and the forward movements also stopped abruptly, and there was even a trace of panic in their eyes.
Not to mention them, even Murong Yanchao was also taken by Sun Tu's sudden murderous aura, and his heart slammed suddenly, and then he reacted and shouted loudly: "Sun Tu, do you dare to resist arrest, do you want to add a degree of guilt?" Do you no longer have the law of the Great Song Dynasty in your eyes? It's just that the tone is not as tough as before, and he has clearly felt the arrogance of this new capital eunuch, and he may not be able to suppress the other party, so he can only move out of the Great Song Dynasty to support him.
Sun Tu sat there for a long time, and the corners of his mouth curled: "Murong Prefect, you want to take me just because of these few points, I'm afraid it's you who ignore my Great Song Dynasty's law, right!" If you want to take me on such a trumped-up charge, you are not qualified enough! ”
"This official is the prefect of Qingzhou, as long as someone commits a crime, I will take him seriously......"
"No, you are a prefect who is only in charge of civil affairs, so what does it have to do with you? Not to mention that this official is the Qingzhou Metropolitan Supervisor sealed by the imperial court, the six-rank official, even if an ordinary soldier commits a crime, he should also be handed over to the military camp to deal with, you are so lawless! Sun Tu interrupted the other party's speech without hesitation, and then glanced at those who had not yet retired from the mission, and said in a calm tone: "If they really dare to do it, this official can now kill them on charges of plotting against them." If you don't believe me, give it a try! At this point, he pulled out his saber from his waist and slammed it on the coffee table next to him.
The bright sword light made everyone present dizzy and panicked, and a few timid officers couldn't help but take two steps back. They just bullied the people or officials who didn't dare to resist, and when they really encountered a murderous opponent, they were immediately stunned and didn't dare to make any changes.
Murong Yanchao's complexion had turned from blue to white, and his body had begun to tremble slightly unconsciously, but he didn't know whether he was angry or afraid. Since he took office as the prefect of Qingzhou, he has encountered many opponents, and he has also solved many officials who are not with him in various names, but he never thought that one day he would meet such a mischievous master. He didn't even doubt that as long as he had any more intention to forcibly take him, Sun Tuzhen would cut the knife at him.
The military attaches of the Great Song Dynasty have been suppressed too much in a hundred years, they have long lost the arrogance they should have, and they have no self-esteem in front of civil officials of the same level or even lower than their own official ranks, and even life and death may be in the hands of others. Over time, it not only consumed the prestige and dignity of the generals, but also completely boosted the arrogance of the civilian officials.
But today, Sun Tu wants to tell everyone a truth here, it is actually a military general like him who has really mastered the means of killing, that is, dozens of Murong Yanchao are tied together, which is not enough for him to kill alone!
Looking at the look of horror in the other party's eyes, Sun Tu smiled disdainfully: "I never need you Murong Yanchao to dictate when I come to Qingzhou to take office, what does it have to do with you if I come late or sooner?" As for entering the government today, I just came to say hello to you as a colleague, I am your colleague and not any subordinate, so there is no need to talk too much about etiquette, not to mention that I am just a martial artist, a rough person, and I don't understand the red tape of you scholars at all. ”
After a pause, he grinned again: "By the way, I came here today just to tell you one thing, from today onwards, the Qingzhou Xiang Army will be ordered by my Sun Tu alone, and you, a prefect in charge of the people, don't have to ask about the affairs of the army anymore." At this point, if you still feel that something is wrong, you can file a complaint with the jurisdiction of this road or the imperial court. But there is one thing I want to tell you first, you have Liang Shicheng as a backer, and my grandson also has Tong Shu's secret protection, and even Cai Taishi appreciates me because of the matter of Cai Taishou in Jiangzhou, and if you want to fight the lawsuit to the court, I will accompany you to the end. After speaking, he got up, and Sun Jian, who was carrying the knife, was so frightened that several people around him trembled, and even Murong Yanchao unconsciously shrank back.
On the way to Qingzhou, Sun Tu had already thought things through. Since he has been marked as a member of the Tong Guan Party, it is impossible for him to be friendly with Murong Yanchao under Liang Shicheng. Since Hengzhu is already an enemy, there is no need to talk about the rules of officialdom to maintain the friendliness on the surface, which will only make himself more and more passive, which is already a few levels lower than his official position, it is better to completely tear his face and put the contradictions in the light.
At least that way, his seizure of power in the army would justify it. And Murong Yanchao has to weigh the possible impact if he wants to deal with him again, maybe it will make several bigwigs in the court start a war early. Turning passivity into initiative, this is exactly the purpose of Sun Tu to be an enemy of him at all costs.
It wasn't until Sun Tu put away the knife and sheathed it, turned around and was about to step out of the room, that Murong Yanchao woke up from his anger and shame, and immediately shouted: "Slow, Sun Tu, do you know that just because you came one step late, dozens of innocent people in a village in Qingzhou were killed by bandits, and this official must go to the court to convict you!" In order to save some face, he couldn't care about planning slowly after that, and immediately showed the last hole card against Sun Tu.
Sun Tu's footsteps stopped slightly when he heard this, and then turned to look at the other party: "I said that the imperial court has never stipulated when I must rush to Qingzhou to take office, so any mistakes here before I go to work have nothing to do with me." Of course, now that the official has arrived in Qingzhou, I will definitely give justice to the people in this matter. ”
Later, he also thought about something: "In addition, the reason why I am a few days late is because I have been delayed for several days in Jeju to suppress bandits. I think it won't be long before the Imperial Court will receive a good report from the Governor of Jeju, and maybe when, a reward will be sent to me. After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Murong Yanchao, who was surprised, and strode out of the door, leading Luda and the others out of the palace with their heads held high, with a posture of not taking this official official to heart at all.
This made dozens of people present dumbfounded, for many years, no one has ever let their own government suffer such a big loss, not to mention that this person is still a military general who has always been looked down upon by everyone, this kind of impact is too strong, so that everyone can't react for a while.
It wasn't until Sun Tu and the three of them went out and got on the horse and walked along the slightly deserted street that Yang Zhi, who had a look of deep surprise and shame on his face, slowly exhaled: "San Lang, your performance today really makes me feel ashamed. I really can't imagine that you can actually refute the Murong Prefect speechlessly, but in this way, you will completely offend him, and the future will not be peaceful. ”
"Even if I were to be respectful and submissive to him today, do you think he would let me go? Since it's the same result, why can't I take the initiative for myself? Besides, he is already jealous, and I will act with less worry in the future, wouldn't it be better? Sun Tu smiled, but a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes: "I can see that my Great Song army is so weak because it is too aggrieved to be a general." If you want to strengthen the army, you must first let the generals have enough prestige, how can I open up the situation when I first arrive in Qingzhou, of course, it is to establish authority first. Presumably, it won't be long before today's events will be known all over the city, and when we enter the barracks the day after tomorrow, the effect will be naturally visible. ”
"I see." Yang Zhi gave him a thumbs up in admiration: "You have thought so far-reachingly, Yang is completely convinced." I knew that you had such a response, and I didn't have to run to ask that Murong Lao'er for the past two days, and I would be idle with him. ”
"Well said, from now on, we will no longer be angry with anyone, and we will play a good game in this Qingzhou City." Luda then said with a smile, which also caused Sun Tu to laugh heartily: "Yes, let the people of the world know what a military general should look like!" ”
When the three of them rushed to the residence with a smile all the way, the atmosphere in the yamen had been depressed to the extreme, and Murong Yanchao finally waved his hand after a long silence and pushed all the things on the case in front of him to the ground: "Presumptuous!" Arrogant! What a damn one! "He was furious, how could he, who had never suffered a loss at the hands of a general, endure such a result.
This made the people around him frightened, and those servants quickly knelt down: "Futai is angry......"
"You say, is there any way to help this official vent this evil breath?" Murong Yanchao looked at them with red eyes and asked urgently. But everyone lowered their heads, no one could come up with an idea, if these subordinates were really capable, they would not be willing to be called by the prefect to be a lackey, not to mention that the strong impression left by Sun Tu on them just now was too deep, and they still have lingering palpitations until now.
Looking at the batch of rice buckets in front of him, Murong Yanchao's face changed several times, and finally waved his hand to let them retreat. And these people were also pardoned, and they all obediently exited the door after saluting, and in the end only a man with gray hair was still in the hall, it was his close confidant and wisdom man Jing Yiming.
