Chapter 167: Counting Each Other

Cheng Changyu will come out to greet Shi Bin a long time ago, such a big victory means that his official hat must be kept, and the next thing is just a trivial matter of settling accounts with himself, an outsider.

Cheng Changyu, who had a sincere smile on his face, stood not far from Shi Bin, although he was still chubby and stupid, he was obviously no longer anxious and sluggish, his spirit was completely different, but he had a completely inconsistent vigor and vitality.

It seems that he did let Cheng Changyu be reborn, Shi Bin secretly thought, and he was still very narcissistic and wondered whether it was right or wrong to let him be reborn.

Before he finished thinking about it, Cheng Changyu rushed over and said with a smile on his face: "Lord Shi is really like a god with soldiers, and he has defeated nearly 10,000 people in chaos with just a few thousand people, which is really admirable." ”

This sycophant made Shi Bin very comfortable, anyway, as long as he was not dizzy by this good word, Shi Bin also smiled: "Where is my credit, it is Lord Cheng who is not suspicious of employing people, and is willing to fully support Shi, otherwise I will lose both defeats with those chaotic people at most in this battle, and it will be a big loss." It's just a pity that I didn't wipe out the gang of rebels, so they fled by hundreds, I'm sorry. ”

"Lord Shi is too modest, it is already rare to be able to hit them hard, it must be difficult for a strong man to annihilate the chaotic people with such a number of people, Cheng will not be so unreasonable. Lord Shi has been tired all the way, this is not the place to talk, I have a little wine at home, you go to my house to rest first, and we will have a few more drinks until noon. Cheng Changyu said with a smile on his face while patting Shi Bin's shoulder.

is indeed very tired, Shi Bin is too lazy to be polite at this time, he is about to fall apart when he works for Cheng Changyu, and he should go to his house to rest and rest. So he didn't say anything, just nodded and followed him to Chengfu.

Shi Bin took it for granted, but Cheng Changyu was not so happy in his heart, he thought that Shi Bin would excuse himself, but he didn't expect him to agree a little politely, and he had to take him to the mansion.

As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Changyu asked his subordinates to settle Shi Bin and Wang San in the third and fourth rooms of the left corridor respectively.

It can be regarded as a few times to come to Chengfu, I remember that Cheng Changyu's study and bedroom are in the right corridor, it seems that he wants to guard himself, Shi Bin thought to himself. But it's normal, there is only a little money relationship between the two, and there is no friendship at all, so he would do the same.

However, after arriving at the left corridor, Shi Bin and Wang San did not go to their own rooms, but entered the third room, Shi Bin asked suspiciously: "What did the virtuous brother find?" If it's not so important, forget it, the eldest brother is really tired and can't bear it. ”

"Just now, the younger brother saw Liu Youfu and a post guard being called to his study by Cheng Changyu successively, eldest brother, this matter is very strange." Wang San frowned, and said cautiously.

As soon as he heard the news, Shi Bin suddenly fell asleep. It is understandable that Liu Youfu was asked to go to the study to verify the results of the battle. But why was the postman summoned in so closely? This is a private matter, and it should definitely not be known to the imperial court.

And at present, it is also the matter of exterminating the chaotic people, it seems that it must be related to itself, and most of it is not a good thing, "Xu Feng!" Shi Bin immediately called.

As soon as the words fell, Xu Feng rushed in with a person, and was about to reprimand Xu Feng for his rudeness, but when he looked up, it was Liu Youfu, who was out of breath.

Without waiting for Shi Bin to agree to his words, Liu Youfu immediately rushed to Shi Bin and said hurriedly: "My lord, the big thing is not good, then Cheng Changyu wants to harm you!" ”

Hurt me? Shi Bin was stunned for a moment, if he gets tens of thousands of taels of silver, he will harm me? Shi Bin obviously didn't believe it.

"My lord, taking people's money is like killing your parents, let alone an iron rooster like Cheng Changyu? Now that you've helped him destroy the rebels, he's starting to take revenge on you. ”

This is reasonable, Cheng Changyu is indeed a miser, it is hard to guarantee that he does not hate himself because of money, not to mention that he has cheated him twice.

"Come on, what exactly is he going to do to me?"

"I was summoned in by him and asked about the number and equipment of your army, but not long after I went out, the villain felt that something was wrong, so he prepared to remind you to beware of him. On the way here, he saw his post man also called into the study. The little man had doubts in his heart, so he quietly walked over and hid by the door and listened carefully. It turned out that he wanted to tell Zheng Qingzhi all the strength of your subordinates, and planned to let other states and counties perform such a scene, so as to confirm your charge of privately transferring troops. ”

With a bang, Shi Bin slapped the coffee table next to him fiercely, and a set of tea sets on the coffee table were shaken and bounced.

"Okay, you Cheng Changyu, Lao Tzu just wants you to pay for labor services, and you actually want Lao Tzu's life. If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, Xu Feng, you first take a few guards to rob the post man, bring back the official document from Cheng Changyu to Zheng Qingzhi, and then go to Sai Zhang Fei's trip, and say that I agree with his plan. He turned his head and said to Liu Youfu: "Blessed, thank you." I don't thank you for saving my life, before the white-eyed wolf fell, I asked you to be wronged in Dingzhou for a while, and when he saw the king of Hades, I would give you a good identity. Alright, don't stay here for long, get out of here! ”

After listening to Shi Bin's words, the two immediately left the wing, leaving only Shi Bin, who had mixed feelings in their hearts, and Wang San, who wanted to stop talking.

"Brother Xian, just say what you have, don't hide it." Seeing Wang San's appearance, Shi Bin said anxiously.

"Big brother, I think you did the right thing this time, but you have to add something." At this time, Wang San's eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness.

"I know what you want to do, do you want to help me knock him again before he dies like Sai Zhangfei?"

Wang San smiled and said, "If it's just like this, why should I still open my mouth?" Knock on a stroke for sure, but you shouldn't just hijack the officer, you should also put some effort into that official document. ”

I see, Shi Bin knew what Wang San was going to do, and nodded in agreement with his opinion.

Now that he is an enemy, Shi Bin doesn't want to have any affection for this white-eyed wolf, and he can squeeze as much as he can, so he said: "I think we don't need to, just grab it, let Sai Zhang Fei grab it." After provoking him, he will be tempted to lead the army to attack himself, and let him die heroically. ”

After discussing, the two went back to their rooms to rest, and at noon they had a good drink with Cheng Changyu as if nothing had happened, Cheng Changyu and Shi Bin were like old friends for many years, and they did not show a flaw.

After drinking, the two left Cheng Mansion, although their faces were still ruddy, they were already in a cold sweat. Less than an hour after returning to the camp, Xu Feng returned to the camp with the post guard, he was a man of errands, not only did not kill the post man, but also rebelled against the post man, and turned to Shi Bin.

After bringing this post guard to Shi Bin, Xu Feng got up again and ran to Zhang Fei's place.

Although he had taken refuge in Shi Bin, in order to save his life, the post guard knew everything about Shi Bin, and let Shi Bin know that Cheng Changyu was already very unhappy when he asked for an advance payment for the first time, and smashed the things in the study.

By the time of the second negotiation, he had already planned to harm Shi Bin, but the rebels had not been exterminated at that time, and now most of the rebels had been annihilated, and he believed that he could sweep the tail, so he wrote to Zheng Qingzhi to prepare to join forces with him to harm Shi Bin.

After hearing this, Shi Bin felt the ruthlessness of this white-eyed wolf, and he was even more grateful to Liu Youfu, glad that he recruited him at the beginning, otherwise he might really be blind.

Then he called Wang San, who was full of joy, and asked him to write an official document with completely opposite content, which described Shi Bin as loving soldiers like a son, decent, and a rare loyal minister, who could be entrusted with important tasks.

Then he handed over the official document to the post man and asked him to take this fake official document and give it to Zheng Qingzhi. He has always been a person who does not know how to save, and even more so for this kind of person who helps him, and immediately instructed Xu Feng to ask him to give the post man twenty taels of silver as a reward.

I thought that even if I took refuge in Shi Bin, I would not be killed at most, but I didn't expect to get twenty taels of silver, which made the post man very happy, and immediately swore allegiance to death.

Looking at the departing post guard, Shi Bin said to himself: "Do you have to kill so many people to stop?" ”

"Big brother, you have done your duty, and you don't owe that guy anything. If you want some silver taels, you should be, otherwise he won't even have an official hat. Now he is so ignorant of what to do, even if he dies, he is innocent. ”

At this time, Shi Bin's mind kept remembering the word Sai Zhangfei said, 'falling down', and he had to admit that he was still not as good as the locals about Cheng Changyu's temperament.

Four days later, Sai Zhangfei led his team to attack a large warehouse outside Dingzhou, robbed the grain and cloth inside, and burned it before leaving.

Cheng Changyu, who got the news, was so angry that he smashed the things in the study again, and immediately ran to the Shibin camp that was about to return to Tanzhou to seek countermeasures.

"Master Cheng, what's wrong with you? Why is it so rushed? Shi Bin asked pretending to be surprised.

"Master Shi, please do Cheng a favor."

"Help? Master Cheng, what do you mean by this? The accounts of our business have not been settled yet, and you still owe 20,000 taels of silver to the lower officials, why do you want me to help you now? Even if I am willing to do it for nothing, the soldiers under my command who are working hard will not be willing! ”

"Master Shi, you can help Cheng, Cheng will have a good reward in the future, I am really penniless now." Cheng Changyu pretended to be choked up and spoke.

Although he really wanted to give Cheng Changyu a five-finger mountain now, Shi Bin still held back. I wanted to kill Cheng Changyu, but now it was a good opportunity, so Shi Bin said: "That's it, if you don't pay the silver two my soldiers, I will definitely not be able to adjust." Then Shi will lead the hundreds of forbidden troops in your Dingzhou to exterminate these chaotic people, and it can be regarded as making friends with Master Cheng. ”

After hearing this, Cheng Changyu immediately expressed his gratitude to Shi Bin, who was his good brother.

However, Shi Bin then said: "Master Cheng, I am a guest general, and I don't understand the temperament of your generals, so I still have to ask you to go with me, just sit in the Chinese army, and leave the matter of fighting to Shi." ”

I have always spared my life, I don't even dare to ride a horse, where do I dare to participate in the battle? So he resolutely refused, no matter how Shi Bin persuaded him, he refused to go with him.

Seeing that he was so resolute, Shi Bin had no choice but to abandon this method, and said that he would lead his troops alone to exterminate the remnants of the rebels. Anyway, it's not really a war, saying it's a war is actually acting.

Sai Zhangfei thought that Cheng Changyu would come, so as to kill him to vent the hatred in his heart, but he didn't expect that this old turtle would shrink in Dingzhou City and not come out, which made him extremely disappointed.

had to secretly meet with Shi Bin again, and expressed his willingness to lead someone to sneak into the city to assassinate Cheng Changyu, a shameless man with a black heart, this time Shi Bin did not hesitate, and gave the internal structure of Cheng's mansion to Sai Zhangfei, and provided him with a hiding place in the city, so that he could evacuate safely after the incident.

Within two days of the arrangement, Cheng Changyu was found dead in the bedroom.
