The street in front of the Kunming County Ya is called the county front street.

There was a carriage on the side of the street, and the offspring sitting in front of the carriage with a whip in his hand was Yao Fang. Yao Fang was dressed in a short gray cloth coat and wore a straw hat on her head.

Looking at it from this side, you can just see the county government photo wall diagonally opposite, and even the carving of the fierce beast swallowing the sun on the wall can be seen clearly.

At this moment, Yao Fang saw Mu Sheng, who was wearing the collar uniform of the embroidered lion group, walk out of the county office. Mu Sheng suddenly held on to the wall, and "vomited" and threw up on the wall with a "...... of vomiting"! Several people next to Mu Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and someone handed a handkerchief over.

There was a faint sound of speaking, and Mu Sheng said: "Can you confirm that the dead person inside is really Yang Yong's corpse?" ”

A few people were talking, and one of them said, "Although the corpse is swollen, it can't be wrong, it must be Yang Yong!" ”

At this time, the carriage on Yao Fang's side seemed to have been noticed by the people standing at the entrance of the county yamen. Yao Fang quietly flicked the horsewhip and hurriedly drove the carriage out of the place.

Not long ago, Yao Fang got a confession about Ping'an's whereabouts, so he is now very suspicious that Mu Sheng's hiding of Ping'an is probably blamed by King Han!

Yao Fang was thinking about it right now: it was too far to take the witnesses back to Beijing. If there is no progress after a period of time, should you simply hand over the captured witnesses to Hu Hu and let Hu Hu investigate them again?

After all, King Han was the person his uncle Yao Guangxiao had to deal with, and Yao Fang had already understood this when he went to Shousheng Yong's house. If Hu Hui can verify that Ping'an is related to the Han Wangfu, this matter will definitely be unfavorable to the Han Wang!

……

In the east mountain of Yuezhou, the mountain is shrouded in white smoke, and the sound of "bang ......" is endless, like firecrackers set off during the New Year.

Countless stubborn Ming troops under the mountain are lining up along the road, and flags are densely packed with swords and guns from far and near.

Zhu Gaoxu sat on a brown horse in armor and looked up at the hillside. There was a fire burning in the village above, and the light of the fire and smoke filled the sky, and the sound of screaming and crying could be faintly heard.

He didn't go up in person, he didn't speak at this time, and a sense of guilt lingered in his heart. He knew very well in his heart: the natives of this village were very likely to be innocent!

Maybe it's the most important thing to achieve the goal, but when he saw what he was doing, he still couldn't let go.

After a while, a group of people appeared on the mountain road, and the people who were rolling and climbing were crying and shouting noisily. Veda next to him turned his head and looked at Zhu Gaoxu with an inquiring gaze. Zhu Gaoxu nodded slightly.

Veda immediately shook the reins and slapped his horse west. The infantry lined up on the side of the road at the foot of the hill quickly turned around, and when Veda waved the order, the army marched in line to the junction on the side of the mountain.

The natives, who were chased down the hill by the rebels in the distance, had no way out, and were soon squeezed in front of the Vedic formation, where they were immediately met with a dense salvo of three rows of firearms. Where the firelight flickered and white smoke filled, a cavalry rushed away, and the strings "snapped and ......" sounded, and there was chaos under the mountain.

In the thick smoke, some people came from the other side of the mountain.

Liu Tai in front knelt on one knee and hugged his fists and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Han, the traitors of Dasongzhai refuse to surrender, and the lower officials have led the army to destroy this village with the help of the officials and soldiers, so as to warn the departments!" ”

"According to Liu's list, there is still a small pine village nearby?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

Liu Tai replied: "Back to Your Highness, exactly." ”

Zhu Gaoxu looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting dark, I'll go to Xiaosongzhai tomorrow." He turned back and said, "Give the whole army an order to camp in a chosen place." ”

Wang Bin's voice said: "Order! ”

When the soldiers dug a trench and built a barracks, the light gradually dimmed. The military camp was at the foot of the East Mountain in Yuezhou, and at this time the east was pitch black, and the sky was blocked by the mountains. The smell of gunpowder smoke and blood during the day was shrouded in mist, and it was not completely dissipated by the evening.

Zhu Gaoxu and the generals of the Chinese army had a big tent and invited Liu Tai and a few others to dinner together.

There is a large temperature difference between day and night in the mountains, and when Zhu Gaoxu sent Liu Tai and others out of the tent, the wind blew and they already felt a burst of coolness. Zhao Ping, a personal guard, draped a red cloak on Zhu Gaoxu's body, Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand, and reached out to tie the cloth rope on his neckline.

"This kind of system seems to be very rare." Suddenly, a voice said.

Zhu Gaoxu followed the sound and saw that the person who spoke was Ma Peng, the righteous brother of Liu Jiangshi, and the two immediately looked at each other. Zhu Gaoxu asked, "Ma Haohan knows this method?" ”

Ma Peng was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Zhu Gaoxu's technique of tying the rope was learned from Yao Ji. At the beginning, he studied for a long time, and it was not easy to learn, and the technique was indeed quite peculiar. Thinking of this, he retreated left and right and asked Ma Peng to follow him back to the tent.

Ma Peng stood in the middle of the big tent, also with a look of surprise and doubt, he hugged his fists and said: "Dare to ask the prince, who taught you this method of tying ropes?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a long time, looked Ma Peng up and down, and suddenly asked: "Ma Haohan changed his name, his original name was Yao Fengji?" ”

Ma Peng's expression changed, he froze in place, and didn't say anything for a while.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu said kindly: "Just now, I learned the technique of wearing a cloak from a girl named Yao Ji. She is now in the Han Palace, and she is the person next to me, so she taught me. ”

Ma Peng's face was cloudy, and the green tendons next to his temples bulged.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Yao Ji's father was convicted and fled, and her mother had to hang herself at home, and now only two brothers and sisters are left. Her father's name is Yao Fengji, is Ma Haohan Yao Fengji? ”

Ma Peng suddenly squatted down, his arms protecting his head. He tensed, clenched his fists, and buried his head in a few sounds that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I'm sorry they ......"

When Ma Peng raised his head, his face was already red, and his eyes full of tears were also red, "I'm not afraid of death!" I didn't accept the unjust case back then, I can't die so unclear! ”

Zhu Gaoxu observed his reaction, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Since General Yao has met this king, this king will overturn the case for you." ”

"Huh?" Ma Peng's eyes widened.

Zhu Gaoxu said with a straight face: "For the sake of Yao Ji's affection, I also want to help General Yao." Have you really been wronged? ”

Ma Peng's eyes were already bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said: "A big unjust case, Yao Guangxiao has ruined my family!" ”

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he immediately took a stool and said, "General Yao, don't worry, you sit down and talk slowly." ”

Ma Peng thanked him, took a long breath, and said in a daze, "At the end of the year, it will be a hundred households in brocade clothes." In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, the last general discovered the secret affair of his uncle Yao Guangxiao of the same clan, and he planted an eyeliner spy in Beijing and committed misdeeds......"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't interrupt Ma Peng, just nodded, and said in his heart: Yao Guangxiao took refuge in the Yan Wangfu in the fifteenth year of Hongwu, and his ambition to overthrow the imperial court had long been there, and it was possible to make a move at that time.

Ma Peng's voice continued: "The last general eats the king's Lu and does not dare to be disloyal, and is about to collect credentials and denounce Yao Guangxiao, but he preemptively instigated the officials to falsely accuse me of fornicating with the pirate Chen Zuyi!" The last general learned that Jinyiwei had sent someone to arrest him, and he had no choice but to flee unjustly, in order to save his life and take revenge in the future. ”

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu spoke: "Since General Yao is a person from Jinyiwei, how can ordinary officials falsely accuse the Jinyiwei generals?" ”

Ma Peng sighed: "The last general and Chen Zuyi do have an old relationship, all because his father was kind to him. However, after Chen Zuyi fled to the sea, the last general and him were their masters, and there was no more contact; Yao Guangxiao falsely accused the last general of being a thief, but he was really wronged by a good person...... But Yao Guangxiao can confirm that our family has an old relationship with Chen Zuyi, so it is no longer clear! ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded after hearing this: "I believe in General Yao's words. ”

He didn't care if Yao Fengji was wronged or not; As long as he can believe that Yao Fengji and Yao Guangxiao have a grudge!

Zhu Gaoxu remembered the dossier stolen by Yao Erlang again, and the content that convicted Yao Fengji in the middle was torn up. I'm afraid that the person who did something to the Beizhen Fusi file really wanted to cover up something.

Ma Peng said: "The last general will not dare to deceive the prince, what he said just now is not half a lie!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu said again: "General Yao's wife committed suicide, so it has to be counted on Yao Guangxiao's head?" ”

Ma Peng looked angry: "If it weren't for Yao Guangxiao's false accusation, how could he have been convicted, so that his wife was forced to commit suicide and his family was ruined!" ”

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu asked: "I talked to General Yao a few days ago, what are the experiences you said, which ones are true?" ”

"At that time, the last general really didn't have anything to do with Chen Zuyi, had nowhere to find him, and he didn't want to be convicted of being a thief, so the last general didn't want to flee to the sea, so he went all the way west." Ma Peng recalled, "After the last general fled from Guizhou to Yunnan, he met Liu Tai in Yuezhou, and first did some dirty work under him......

He sighed, "The Yi tribes on this side of Yuezhou often fight, and the last general was sent by Liu Tai to sell his life for the head of the Sha clan several times; The last general was originally a martial artist, and he was appreciated by the Sha clan for his bravery and good fighting...... Later, the last general married a wife and settled down, and married the daughter of the head of the Sha clan. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said quietly, "So it seems that the Dasongzhai lands that we have attacked in the past few days are people who have enemies with Liu Tai and others?" ”

Ma Peng's face was embarrassed, and he nodded after a little hesitation: "Don't hide it from the prince, that's exactly the case." Liu Tai and other Han people took refuge in the Yi people's Longhai family, and there were some people who were related to them, and there were also some people who were not convinced. This time the prince's army came, and Liu Tai wanted to take this opportunity to destroy the unsatisfied tribes in the Yuezhou natives. ”

Zhu Gaoxu paced a few steps in the tent and said, "After a few days the affairs of Yuezhou are completed, I still decide to let Lu Ning, a member of the Yi tribe, be the leader of the Tusi of Yuezhou, and ask Liu Tai and others to assist Lu Ning to manage the Turen first." General Yao and I went back to Yunnan to meet your son and daughter. ”

Ma Peng's expression was complicated, his eyes brushed over the cloth rope tied to Zhu Gaoxu's collar, and finally nodded.
