Chapter 513: The Murderer
The news of the murder of the head of the Rongguo Mansion, Sun, once again shocked Chang'an Shenjing.
The words "blood debt and blood repayment" are undoubtedly reminiscent of the Pingliang Houfu incident that happened before.
It also made it clear to the world that the Zhenyuan Lord, who had been silent for more than ten years, was not an old sick tiger, and his fangs were still sharp!
The swiftness and ruthlessness of the revenge really shocked many people.
The original line of the founding heroes who were eager to try, the flame of ambition that had just risen because of the Pingliang Marquis Mansion was extinguished in an instant.
Except for Niu Jizong of the Zhenguo Mansion and Liu Fang of the Liguo Mansion, the other founding heroes were not even present in person.
Even Niu Jizong and Liu Fang only came to the door to hang their filial piety, and then left in a hurry.
After all, in terms of overall strength, the lineage of the founding heroes who have long been declining is far from being comparable to the lineage of Zhenyuan who is still in charge of the military power of the great cadres.
Even the Heavenly Family is very taboo about the power of Zhen Yuan's ministers, and they are wary of them in every way, let alone them?
So far, in front of the gatehouse of Rongguo Mansion, which was still busy yesterday, it has become a door again today, and even people who hang filial piety are scarce.
Even, even the people of the Jia clan rarely came to the door.
lest they be implicated......
In this way, it also makes people feel more and more the prestige of Zhen Yuan's ministers, which cannot be offended.
……
Dongfu, vestibule.
Jia Cong looked indifferently at the more than a dozen brocade wrestlers kneeling in the courtyard dressed in dark black partridge brocade clothes and wearing three-mountain wingless gauze hats.
On the last night of the twenty-fifth year of Zhenyuan, King Wu led an army of 100,000 to attack the imperial city and slaughtered all the flying fish to collect the sword.
In the first year of Chongkang, after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, in order to cover his face, he re-established the brocade clothes again.
It's just that the flying fish suit on the brocade army, which was more expensive than Hou Bo, was changed to a black partridge brocade suit.
Moreover, it is only a nominal restoration.
The Jinyi pro-army, in addition to being able to bluff a sunset wealthy family like the Jia family, who has long lost their real power, has to take a detour when they meet Zhen Yuan's ministers.
will no longer regain the prestige of the Holy Ancestor and the Zhenyuan Dynasty.
The brocade-clothed pro-army stationed in the one hundred and eight squares of Shenjing has also become a good person, and they have to get by.
Jia Cong just came back from Jiangnan, and he was going to take time out and slowly clean up the oil.
It's just that he didn't expect such a thing to happen......
"Adults, the little ones really didn't see anything, they didn't hear anything!"
"Yes, the little ones woke up all the time yesterday, but there was no movement at all......
"Don't talk about the little ones, don't even the neighbors on both sides of the city listen to them at all? Complaining about it......"
What is the soldier oil, nothing more than that.
Jia Cong didn't even have the heart to reason with them, glanced at Shen Lang, Shen Lang waved his hand, and dozens of Xianwei, whose faces were the same as Shen Lang's, stepped forward and pressed the thirteen brocade wrestlers to the ground, and the first one said in a deep voice before the execution: "As a brocade in the workshop, I failed to protect the territory and the people, and I dared to quibble, and the crime was increased by one degree, and the execution was carried out." ”
With that, thirteen solid wooden military sticks smashed down.
As the sound of "poof" sounded, the miserable howl of the ghost crying wolf sounded at the same time.
However, Jia Cong only frowned slightly, and the thirteen military sticks changed direction and landed on the mouths of those captains.
The screams came to an abrupt end.
After the beating of the thirty military sticks, Jia Cong lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Take these thirteen people to the one hundred and eight squares in Shenjing, and let all the Jinyi wrestlers in the square take a closer look." And then there is dereliction of duty, and neglect of messengers, and this is the case. ”
"Whoa!"
After Shen Lang arranged for someone to go, Han Tao and Yao Yuan appeared together.
After Han Tao saw this, he took out a stack of notes from his pocket, respectfully handed it to Jia Cong, and said, "My lord, this is the largest gang of the thirty-eight in Shenjing City. These gangs are extremely powerful, with a population of more than 1 million people in the capital, merchants such as forests, and most of the tooth markets have to 'pay tribute' to them. Extortion, kidnapping and robbery, setting up a bureau to trap people, abducting and selling people, gambling in brothels, and putting money in prints...... Do no evil. It's just that if you can achieve the scale of these 38 families, there will be noble people behind you. Especially these time-honored gangs that have not collapsed for more than ten years...... My lord, they are mostly lackeys who collect wealth for some nobles. ”
Jia Cong's face was expressionless, and after taking the paper and looking at it twice, his fingers lightly scratched on the first Sihai Cao Gang, and looked at Han Tao.
Han Tao hurriedly said: "This Sihai Cao Gang is just outside the gate of Shenjing West City, controlling the shipping coolies on the Weishui Wharf, which is extremely domineering. However, all ships anchored from the Weishui wharf had to use coolies from the four seas to carry the goods, otherwise, the cargo ships would not be able to go ashore, and sometimes even the official ships had to do so. ”
Jia Cong's voice said indifferently: "Who is behind it?" ”
Han Tao said: "Dongchuan Houfu, Dongchuan Houti's Liwei Battalion, the big camp is near Jinguangmen in Xicheng!" Dongchuan Hou Zhang Yi has two sons, the eldest son is the son, named Zhang Liang. The second son, Zhang Liang, is in charge of the affairs of the Sihai Cao Gang on behalf of Dongchuan Houfu, guarding the Weihe Wharf, and making money every day. ”
"In Xicheng, Zhang Liang and Zhang Liang ......"
Hearing this, Jia Cong glanced at Han Tao deeply, and a touch of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's someone from Xuanguogong's side, right?" ”
Han Tao's face froze, and he bowed down and said, "They are getting closer......"
Jia Conghe sneered, nodded, stood up and said, "Then, let's start from here......"
……
The Sihai Cao Gang helped Zhang Sihai was originally a brave soldier in the army, but later retired from the army because of a broken eye, so he established the Sihai Cao Gang and ate on the Weishui Wharf.
However, in just three years, Zhang Sihai made the Sihai Cao Gang one of the largest gangs in the capital.
In addition to the courage of himself and a group of veterans led by him, there are two reasons.
First, Weishui Wharf is a golden river flowing with gold and silver, and the amount of silver that comes in every day is beyond imagination, making the Sihai Cao Gang financially abundant.
The second is that Zhang Sihai is backed by the Dongchuan Marquis Mansion, one of the twelve martial marquis of Daqian, and the Dongchuan Houti Liwei Camp is in Jinguangmen, close to Weishui Wharf.
With such a solid backer, it is difficult for the Sihai Cao Gang to be underdeveloped.
It's just that the interests of the Sihai Cao Gang are so great that even the Dongchuan Houfu, which didn't care about it, was sideways.
So in the fourth year, although the help of the Sihai Cao Gang was still Zhang Sihai, the actual controller became the Dongchuan Marquis Mansion.
Zhang Sihai was originally a man of his duty, although he used his hands to kill people when he was fighting for territory, and there were no less than 100 corpses that sank into Weishui.
But for the merchants, it has to be polite on the whole.
However, when the Dongchuan Hou Mansion began to talk about things, especially when Zhang Liang, the second son of the Dongchuan Hou Mansion, began to take charge, the Sihai Cao Gang gradually deteriorated.
There is no self-restraint......
Over the years, hundreds of people have been lost on the Weishui wharf.
In addition to children, even the young ladies of the eunuch family sometimes disappeared after getting off the boat......
There are also things such as touching porcelain, stealing and cheating, which emerge endlessly.
The most lucrative job of the Sihai Cao Gang has gradually changed from being a coolie to a tricky man.
On the Weishui wharf, there are three religions and nine streams, mixed fish and dragons, and most of them are Zhang Liang's subordinates.
Unscrupulous, fearless, the people and passing merchants are miserable.
Even if the bitter lord reports to the official, the errand of the Chang'an County Ya will be over.
Who would dare to pursue it?
The water under the feet of the Son of Heaven is very deep!
Originally, I thought that this situation would be maintained forever, and perhaps it would not be possible to end until the day when the Dongchuan Marquis Mansion declined.
But I didn't expect the change to come so suddenly.
I didn't expect that Jia Cong's revenge would come so fast, so crazy, and so fierce!
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
A series of firearms rang out in front of a private house three miles away from Jinguangmen.
This is the address of the gang of the Four Seas Cao Gang.
The deep courtyard of the mansion with five entrances before and after is magnificent, and it is not much worse than those public palaces in Shenjing City.
In front of the three vast gatehouses, more than 20 Han and some monks, nuns and even lamas, using a variety of Qimen weapons, want to break through head-on.
However, no matter how high its fame in the rivers and lakes and green forests, how loud its name, and how sharp its fame stunts, at this moment, under the accumulation of hundreds of firearms, there is only one way to lose.
The three hundred brocade clothes were not entangled at all, and the firearms guard opened the way, and they rushed all the way to the inside.
But whoever appears in sight will shoot or slash and slash.
It is actually a posture that does not leave a living mouth and washes this place with blood.
With such momentum, it finally frightened the people inside.
Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through and reporting the news, and the Jinyi guard was so vicious, the people inside were finally afraid.
While gathering the remaining strength and trapped behind the second gate, he tried to shout to Jia Cong: "Champion Hou, I am Zhang Liang from the Dongchuan Hou Mansion, and my father Dongchuan Hou!" Champion Hou, I know that something happened to your family, and I am not happy. But there is a debtor and a master, if it is what I do in Dongchuan Houfu, I will never hide my head and show my tail, I don't believe you to inquire, Lao Tzu...... No, my brother and I even beat up the little prince of King Kang's Mansion back then, and we didn't say no, and we were dragged to Zongren's Mansion and beaten half to death, and our brothers didn't even frown. Our two families had no grievances in the past and no enmity in the near future, and our Dongchuan Hou Mansion and Pingliang Hou Mansion didn't deal with him, so could we stand up for him? Champion Hou, you are also the hero of the world, and the little brother has long wanted to make friends with you. Even if we don't know each other today, how about it? The younger brother is also famous in this capital, who doesn't know that the second child of my Dongchuan Hou Mansion is famous for his speech...... Hey, Champion Hou, what do you say? ”
Zhan Peng and Shen Lang, who were the main attackers, looked back at Jia Cong, Jia Cong was riding on a horse, his eyes that had been drooping were raised, and he glanced at the two of them indifferently without a trace of anger, which made the two of them feel a chill in their hearts, and then they didn't look back, and they roared angrily: "Kill!" ”
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!!"
There was another burst of fire, especially the pikemen, and at close range, the power of firearms was like divine might.
Han Tao led people to train to hit the wood again, and knocked the second door open in two clicks.
Those people under Zhang Liang bullied the good people in the past, and they were naturally like tigers and wolves, all of them heroes.
can face the regular army, but the chickens and dogs!
"Kill!!"
Zhan Peng, as the closest soldier to Jia Cong's side, could naturally feel the deep anger in his heart!
Therefore, the first to kill the door.
Even if an enemy is coming, he will only try to avoid the vital points and not be afraid of being injured.
The two scimitars are wielded to the extreme, covering the sky and the sun!
Such a desperate and courageous posture completely collapsed the opponent's already decadent momentum.
Many people knelt down and surrendered, Jia Cong summoned Yao Yuan, and after whispering a few words to him, Yao Yuan immediately led people forward, gathered the surrendered people, and began to record what with the pen and ink that had already been prepared......
After half a pillar of incense, Zhan Peng, who was covered in blood, stepped forward with a young man about twenty years old and said to Jia Cong: "My lord, he is Zhang Liang!" ”
Zhang Liang was dressed in brocade, but he had no noble son's style, he trembled and said to Jia Cong: "Champion Hou, your family's affairs are really ...... I really didn't do it, and ...... And my family, no...... Irrelevant! Wu Han and I are also ...... There is also hatred! I'm glad he's dead, it's ...... Really, what a pleasure! ”
Jia Cong's eyes looked at him indifferently, Zhang Liang squeezed out a strong smile and looked at Jia Cong, and at this moment, he heard his incredible exclamation from Yao Yuan in the northeast corner: "What did you say?" Is it really him? ”
When Zhang Liang heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, his eyes looked over there like a ghost, and when he saw someone trembling and saying something to Yao Yuan, his legs were weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Jia Cong looked at the goods in front of him and felt incredulous.
In this way, the murderer was found?!
He originally thought that he would kill all the thirty-six gangs, kill the Zhenyuan Xunchen and the ministers, and then kill the mastermind behind the scenes little by little.
Who would have thought it would be so easy......
Zhang Liang looked at Jia Cong's face and gaze, a chill seeped into his heart, he burst into tears and snot, and said: "Champion Hou, it's really not my idea, I don't recognize Jia Lian on weekdays, it's me who was instigated by others, and it's Cai Chang's ...... who forgets everything."
Jia Cong's eyes were so indifferent that Mu Ran slowly pulled out the sword at his waist, Zhang Liang saw it, and his soul was furious, and he desperately pleaded for mercy.
Zhen Yuanxun is a noble family, and not all of his children are successful.
In addition to the sons who will inherit the title in the future, there are also other unscrupulous children.
Dongchuan Hou Zhang Yi has only two sons in his life, Zhang Liang is the son, and he has worked hard all the year round in Jiubian, so this Zhang Liang will inevitably be doted on.
Looking at such goods, Jia Cong only felt ridiculous.
I feel a little aggrieved in my heart, how unjust is Jia Lian's death? !
He slowly raised his sword and was about to slash the beast in front of him alive, when Guo Yun, the pro-soldier team, suddenly came from outside with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "Hou Ye, Dongchuan Hou Zhang Yi dispatched three thousand soldiers and horses to arrive, and he wanted to see Hou Ye outside the door!" Say that he will not take thirty breaths, and he will attack him. ”
When Jia Cong heard this, his eyes froze.
Zhang Liang howled desperately outside as if he had been reborn: "Dad! Come and save me!! ”
The sword raised by Jia Cong fell down and slapped on Zhang Liang's face, bringing up a touch of blood, and at the same time, it also frightened Zhang Liang into fainting.
Jia Cong said to Zhan Peng, Shen Lang, Han Tao, and Yao Yuan who had gathered: "Line up, ready to fight at any time!" Remember, use this house, use the power of firearms, block layer by layer, and focus on the maximum number of enemy forces. Until the final battle, you don't have to fight to the death. ”
"Whoa!"
The generals received the order in a deep voice.
Jia Cong said to Guo Yun again: "Take this brute, as well as those few people's certificates, let's go out, ask Dongchuan to wait for Zhang Yi, and give me an explanation." ”
"Report!"
At this moment, another pro-soldier came to report: "Master Hou, there are a few more adults outside, including the Founding Prince, Xuanguo Gong, Chengguo Gong, etc., they asked the adults to go out and talk quickly." ”
Jia Cong sneered and said, "It's all smart. Seeing Zhang Liang slowly waking up again, his eyes were happy, Jia Cong sneered, and said: "Today is the king of heaven Lao Tzu, and he can't save your life, dog!" ”
He stabbed the sword down with his backhand, and Zhang Liang screamed, and saw that the tip of the sword had sunk into his right chest, and he fell unconscious again......
Jia Cong said in a deep voice: "That's it, take him out to meet people." ”
After that, he pulled the reins of the horse, turned the horse's head, and rushed to the front of the main gatehouse.
The reason why I didn't kill him first was because dog-eat-dog!
