Chapter 143: Bloodshed
Taishou's denial did not make Li Qing show the slightest impatience, took off the bulky helmet on his head, calmly looked at the Shu County Taishou in front of him, and said word by word: "Cui Yu, a native of Jingzhaofu, a Jinshi in the twenty-fifth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, was only appointed as the chief secretary of an ordinary county town in Gyeonggi Province at first!" ”
"In just nine years, Lord Cui has been able to overcome obstacles all the way to this position, Lord Cui is a good means!" The tone of his voice is very calm, but the confidence in his hands can be felt by anyone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The middle-aged man's gaze at Li Qing, who was originally casual, changed to a solemn look for the first time.
As far as this king knows, Lord Cui has always been very bad with him because he is not used to seeing Xian Yu Zhongtong's flying domineering, if this time this king is Xian Yu Zhongtong's air, is Cui confident that he can keep the military power in his hands with the position of the little Shu County Taishou?
"The command and transfer power of 2,500 sergeants, how can this fat meat on the lips not be remembered day and night? The reason why he didn't make a move before was just because Lord Zhang Qiu had been mediating from it, and I think even if this king didn't talk about it, Lord Cui would understand! ”
Seeing that Li Qing said it so thoroughly, the middle-aged man finally lowered his head, and it was obvious that he recognized what Li Qing said!
Since His Royal Highness King Shou already knows all the forces in Chengdu well, then the lower officials will get straight to the point, if you want the Taishou Mansion to stand by the side of King Shou, it is not impossible, King Shou only needs to agree to the three conditions of the lower officials!
One: Even if King Shou succeeds in entering the Jiedu Embassy in the future, he will still retain the command of my Taishou Mansion over these 2,500 soldiers.
Two: For so many years, Xia Guan has served on the border, and he is used to seeing the dangerous phenomenon of many border defense generals and people, and I only hope that His Royal Highness can try his best to restrain his generals in the future, after all, Xia Guan can be regarded as a son of a poor family. , I can't see the suffering of ordinary people from the same background as myself.
Three: That is, King Shou must deal with a bloody case for the lower officials, if this matter is not successful, everything is not to be discussed! When His Royal Highness personally tried the case, the lower official swore with his life that no matter whether he succeeded or failed, the Taishou Mansion would definitely stand behind His Highness.
When the middle-aged man, who was originally very respectful, said the last condition, he was surprisingly tough.
Li Qing, who originally had a very flat facial expression, was very curious when he heard the last condition, what kind of "bloody case" needed to be personally taken action by himself as the Shouwang and the envoy of the Jiannan Dao Festival? Moreover, how is this bloody case closely related to the Shu County Taishou in front of him?
Since the conditions proposed by the Shu County Taishou in front of him were not too excessive, Li Qing naturally had no possibility of refusing!
The middle-aged man looked at Li Qing with a tentative expression, and said slowly: "I don't know if the lower official can ask someone to bring the plaintiff up at this moment, of course, the premise is that His Royal Highness is not afraid that the lower official will take the opportunity to call someone!" ”
Li Qing still said confidently: "Since this king can arrive here safely, he naturally has a way to leave safely, if he wants to leave here, this king still has this strength!" ”
And the middle-aged man, who was originally afraid of being suspected, heard that Li Qing was so confident, so he had to smile awkwardly, slowly walked to the door, found a team of patrolling soldiers, and ordered them to bring people up.
Li Qing is not in a hurry, after all, whether he can win the support of the Taishou Mansion is the key to his future victory, and Li Qing still has this patience.
However, it didn't make Li Qing wait too long, about a cup of tea, and soon two middle-aged men with vicissitudes of life wearing a thin patched shirt appeared in front of the two, and the two of them had a slight bow on their backs, because their hands were covered with calluses and densely covered with cracks that were not big or small, and Li Qing observed very carefully.
Since he was so valued by the Taishou in front of him, Li Qing would naturally pay attention to it very carefully, but in the current situation, Li Qing could only know that the two people in front of him were poor people.
Under the laborious explanation of the Taishou of Shu County, the two finally knew that the young man in front of them was the new Shouwang from Chang'an City, the current Jiannan Daojie Du envoy, and now the only person in the whole Chengdu who can make decisions for them, the two knelt down towards Li Qingfutong, and said very angrily: "Please Your Highness, for the grass people, the whole village has a full eight hundred and thirty-four lives, only the two of us were spared because we went up the mountain to cut wood, and the others all died!" ”
"There should have been a strong man who didn't flick his tears, but at this moment, he was crying with snot and tears in front of Li Qing, overnight, the whole village was slaughtered, this kind of thing happened to anyone, it can't bear it!"
And the original attitude, which was still very leisurely, was silently admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the side, and heard the crying of the two middle-aged men in front of him, the situation suddenly changed greatly, and he slapped the desk and shouted: "Presumptuous, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, in broad daylight, who dares to do such a damned thing!" ”
Li Qing is completely angry, although from Chang'an to Chengdu, along the way, the people who died indirectly or directly at Li Qing's hands have been close to three hundred, but those are all people who have to be killed, and at this moment, someone suddenly slaughtered nearly a thousand ordinary people for no reason, it can be said that even if this is not a condition proposed by Taishou, if Li Qing knew about this matter, he would not give up.
Fortunately, at this moment, the guards outside have already been replaced by frog moth guards, if it weren't for this, if Li Qing made such a move, the guards outside would definitely push the door in.
Li Qing's anger directly startled the two villagers, in their eyes they are both "officials and officials protect each other", if it were not for the insistence on revenge for the villagers, there is no other way to go, the two would not choose this path.
Li Qing, who realized his gaffe, forcibly suppressed his anger, forced out a smile, and said to the two of them: "Don't panic, two of you, just tell this king what you know, and this king will definitely make decisions for you, no matter who the other party is!" “
If it were in Chang'an, Li Qing might not have made such a promise; But in Chengdu, Li Qing has the capital and strength to promise!
got Li Qing's assurance, and the two of them thought that there was no possibility of deceiving themselves by virtue of the identity of the person in front of them, the two of them were naturally excited, and the two of them hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, when the grass people arrived, they only found an old man in the village who was dying, and he only said four words, and the other grass people didn't understand!" ”
"Moreover, the grass people also know that the other party is very powerful, because the old man told us not to seek revenge when he was leaving!"
Li Qing clenched his hands into fists and asked urgently, "What are the four words?" Intuitively, Li Qing felt that these four words were the most important.
"Purple Viper Venom", it was not the two people in front of him who answered at this moment, but the Shu County Taishou who was as relaxed as a spectator from beginning to end.
Hearing these four words, both Li Qing and Li Ye behind him were puzzled, after all, Li Ye was seriously injured and unconscious at that time, and Li Qing was highly poisoned in his body, so he naturally didn't know everything that happened in the lobby that night.
Seeing Li Qing's confused expression, the Taishou of Shujun, who had pondered for a moment, suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Presumably, His Highness doesn't know that what he has is the purple viper venom, and the assassination of His Highness, the big and small officials of Chengdu Mansion have something to do with the deputy envoy of Jiedu!" ”
The Taishou of Shu County said it so thoroughly, Li Qing naturally understood it very clearly, obviously: kill people and kill people. ”
Knowing the whole story, Li Qing calmed down, turned to face the Shu County Taishou on the side and said, "This matter will definitely be handled by this king." With that, he turned and walked out the door.
