Chapter 231: The Man Behind the Scenes

If these people are arrested, there is no actual evidence, and it is easy to deviate from morality; But if they don't let it go, everyone is a little unwilling in their hearts, and they can't guarantee that they won't make other things in the future. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Why don't you just arrest the two of them, and then get some evidence for them?" On the side, seeing that everyone's faces were a little gloomy, Fan Yu proposed.

Yang Xingmi immediately said unhappily: "No, how can Lone be this kind of person who fabricates evidence?" And..."

He looked at the crowd in the audience: "If Gu fabricated evidence to punish these people today, then if Gu is dissatisfied with any of you in the future, will he be able to punish you for the crime of fabrication?" ”

Others originally thought that Fan Yu's proposal was feasible, but after hearing Yang Xingmi's words, they immediately kept silent. There is no way, Yang Xingmi's temperament is there, since he has already spoken, even Yang Wu is not easy to disobey.

Moreover, killing heroes without evidence will indeed cause a lot of turmoil, not to mention anything else, for example, in many feudal towns today, I don't know how many of the declines start from killing heroes.

At the same time, in a manor in the north of Guangling City, seven or eight wealthy middle-aged people were gathering together, talking, laughing and drinking.

"General Jia, this time, thanks to the general's idea in the back, I made a lot of money!" A shrewd-looking middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Yes, now is the harvest season, it stands to reason that everyone will try to keep the price of grain as low as possible, so as to receive more grain from the people. Admire under it! The other also said flatteringly with a smile on his face.

In the middle of the crowd, there was a middle-aged man with a full beard, dark skin, and an ordinary appearance, and after listening to the flattery of everyone, he waved his hand proudly and said: "Don't just talk about me, this idea was given by General Qu, and I just listened to him." But he has something to do today, and he cannot come to meet you, so he will ask you for his sins in the next generation. With that, he raised the glass in his hand and toasted everyone.

This person is Jia Lingwei, one of the masterminds behind this turmoil. As for the few people surrounding him, they were wealthy businessmen in the Jianghuai area who participated in the incident, specializing in grain business; Qu Zhang was cautious by nature, but he didn't show up this time.

Maybe because of the happy mood, plus the wine, so today Jia Lingwei couldn't help but say a lot, and complained to the crowd: "Don't look at how good the king's reputation is now, the world says that he is kind." However, it's all fake, foolish! ”

"Let me tell you, back then, I and the current Haozhou Assassin Liu Jin, as well as the Hailing Suppression Envoy Gao Ba and others at that time, each had hundreds or thousands of troops under his command, and the king himself was only a few thousand troops at that time, which was still pieced together with all his might. In the face of Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo, the strong enemies who occupied Guangling, they were completely at a disadvantage; So he hit us with his idea, summoned us with a military order, and when we arrived in his barracks, he immediately turned his face. ”

"Liu Jin and I saw the opportunity early at that time, and even if we took refuge in the king, we were able to save our lives; The rest of the people, like Hailing Zhen to contain Gao Ba, he was originally the nephew of Gao Biao, the former Huainan Jiedu envoy, relying on Gao Biao's kindness to the king, and he didn't obey the king at all, so he was killed by the king on the spot. He was killed along with a dozen other commanders, all of whom were swallowed up by the king. At that time, I didn't dare to come out at all, for fear that I would be accidentally killed by the king! ”

Speaking of the events of that year, Jia Lingwei was a little embarrassed.

In that era when the heroes rose together, Yang Xingmi was actually only one of the many heroes, or one of the many bandits, but he was lucky enough to occupy Luzhou, so he was appointed by Gao Biao as the assassin of Luzhou, and had the name of orthodoxy.

And people like Liu Jin, Jia Lingwei and others, at that time, they didn't have to have a few soldiers, but they just lacked this name, so they could only be regarded as local bandits, or local heroes.

After Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo killed Gao Yu, Yang Xingmi raised troops from Luzhou to attack the two, Liu Jin, Jia Lingwei and others also responded with troops, they were originally Yang Xingmi's allies, but they just lacked this title, so they could only take Yang Xingmi as the leader of the alliance and obey his military orders; But Yang Xingmi was still not satisfied, so he summoned many allies to the army and seized military power.

This incident is also a black spot on Yang Xingmi's body, although later after Yuan Xingmi's death, Yang Xingmi put all the faults of this incident on Yuan Xingmi, but anyone with a discerning eye knows what is going on.

After listening to the old story, several people present couldn't help but be a little frightened.

Although businessmen dare to commit any crime and even risk hanging their heads because they have a profit of 300 percent, these rich businessmen have not gone crazy to that extent.

They all survived from the troubled times, and they knew that these festival envoys really didn't need a reason to kill people, but they saw that over the years, although there were people who killed people indiscriminately, Yang Xingmi had never killed indiscriminately, so they thought that his temperament was really harmless to humans and animals, but they didn't expect to do this kind of thing back then.

"This ......" one of them said with some trepidation: "General Jia, what we are doing now will not let the king take it to kill the head, right?" ”

Jia Lingwei said with a smile: "What's this, let's not kill anyone, don't break the law, and don't collaborate with the enemy; It's just a little bit of business. Moreover, if the king is still cruising in other places, and now the prince is sitting in Guangling, we still have to worry about whether the prince will be desperate to deal with us; But now that the king has returned to Guangling, no matter whether he has really become benevolent or fake, at least he will not kill people indiscriminately without evidence! ”

"Okay, that's all for today, you all remember, as long as we insist on not selling grain, the grain price control will definitely be lifted in a few days, and then we can sell the grain in our hands again, and we will be able to make a lot of money. With this money, if you feel uneasy, you can move your family somewhere else! ”

After a few more words, Jia Lingwei said goodbye and left.

When he returned to the mansion, he saw that his other accomplice, Qu Zhang, was already waiting there, and Jia Lingwei hurriedly went over to greet him.

"Brother Qu, have we gone too far this time? To say that although the king and the prince transferred us to the General Division, after all, they did not kill them all, and the king has been good to us all these years, is it ...... to pull back at this time" In front of Qu Zhang, Jia Lingwei lost the composure just now, but looked a little flustered, with a trace of regret in his expression.
