Cheng Jie watched Zhao Hao and the others walk away, looking at the big clock in the middle of the living room, and he was so angry that he smoked.

"This guy deceived me too much, take the four treasures of the study, the old man wants to repair the book to her husband and King Jia!"

Soon someone brought paper and ink, and someone carried the very obscure bell out.

Cheng Jie, who was furious, dipped himself in pen and ink and waved it with a wave, and soon wrote two secret letters, sealed them with fire paint, and immediately made people hurry up and rush to the capital.

After the henchman who was ordered to deliver the letter left, Cheng Jie regained his composure and sat on the Taishi's chair with a cloudy and thoughtful face.

Suddenly, his eyebrows slowly stretched out again, as if he had thought of some clever plan, and immediately beckoned the housekeeper to come forward, and said in a low voice: "You send more people to Henan Mansion to spread around, and you will say that Lord Qincha will put grain in Luoyang, one stone per person, first come, first served, and the place where you receive grain will be in Qincha." ”

The butler asked with a puzzled face, "What is this move?" ”

Cheng Jie sneered: "Those victims rely on a few mouthfuls of porridge every day to hang their lives, they must rather believe in their existence than believe in their no, when more than 100,000 disaster victims pour into Luoyang City, if there is no food, they will be anxious, and then send people to mix in, induce the victims to impact the Qin Mission, Zhao Hao'er will have to shed his skin if he does not die!" ”

The housekeeper's eyes lit up and he smiled: "The old official has a great plan!" ”

At this moment, several people suddenly rushed in and shouted: "Old official, it's not good!" ”

Cheng Jie was proud, and when he saw this group of subordinates so reckless, he couldn't help but be furious: "What's the matter? ”

The leader hurriedly said: "The door of the mansion is blocked by the Jinyi guard!" ”

Cheng Jie saw that the person who spoke was the confidant who arranged for him to send the letter to the capital, and his face couldn't help but change greatly: "What? ”

The man hung his head and said, "Hundreds of Jinyi guards blocked the gate, and guarded it with strong bows and crossbows, and the villain couldn't go out." ”

Cheng Jie was furious: "Even if he is a Qincha, can he be forcibly bought and sold, and block people's houses for no reason, there is still Tianli and Wang Fahu?" You wait to go out of the back door and go to Jingshi, and I will go to the front door to see, why did he Zhao Hao block the door of my house! ”

After speaking, he led the housekeeper and a group of henchmen and slaves, and ran out of the living room angrily.

As soon as he got out of the living room, several house slaves hurriedly came and said urgently: "Qiyu old official, Jinyiwei shouted at the door, saying that someone accused the little boy of robbing the people's daughter and harming people's lives, let the little boy go out and turn himself in, otherwise he will enter the house to take people!" ”

The little son in their mouth is Cheng Jie's eldest grandson and the only grandson Cheng Feng, known as the first tiger in Beijing, who usually bullies men and women and does not do less, and the so-called things that rob people and women and harm people's lives are probably still there.

Cheng Jie immediately stopped, his facial muscles twitched sharply, and he said angrily: "Ridiculous, it's just a crime to add to it, why bother?" Dog Qin sent a public to declare a personal vendetta, disregarded the king's law, and was mad to such a situation, how could I be afraid of him? Come on, close the door of the house, gather all the strong, guard the walls of the four sides, and see how he enters the house and takes people! Then send someone out of the back door to transfer the embassy, and if Lord Dao Qincha wants to break into the house and commit murder, please send out an army to stop it, otherwise something happens, I'm afraid that he won't be able to get through the husband's place. ”

"Whoa!"

In the square in front of the Chengfu Gate, three or four hundred brocade guards were in a strict array, and the Qinglong Wrong Hand Knife in their hands was pulled out together, pointing directly at the gate of Chengfu. There are more than 300 elite soldiers, all of them are freshly dressed and angry, carrying crossbow arrows, holding the reins in their left hands and weapons in their right hands, ready to rush out at any time.

Under the banner, Zhao Hao, Wu Song, Fang Baihua, and Liang Hongyu stood on their horses, looking coldly at the gate of Chengfu.

Wu Song was obviously impatient to wait, and said, "Childe, why don't you rush in and get people directly?" ”

Zhao Hao said indifferently: "Don't be impatient. ”

At this moment, the originally open gate of Chengfu suddenly closed slowly, and then there was the sound of falling bolts.

Fang Baihua on the side turned around, looked at Zhao Hao and said: "When the interruption continues, now that the old thief has closed the door, it may not be easy to rush in again." ”

Zhao Hao smiled and didn't say anything, just pointed to the vermilion walls on both sides of the gate, Fang Baihua looked at his fingers, and unconsciously gasped.

I saw that above the vermilion wall, a large number of figures suddenly appeared densely appeared, and when I looked carefully, it was the house slaves of the Cheng Mansion, everyone was armed with weapons, and there were all kinds of weapons, including knives, guns, swords, sticks, etc., and even bows and arrows and ...... Crossbow bolts!

Cheng Mansion has lived in the west of Beijing for many years, and its power is extremely strong, and the number of strong domestic slaves is more than 200 people, plus the guards and generals, up to nearly 300 people, crowded on the wall of Cheng Mansion at the moment, guarding it with strong bows and crossbows, waiting for it, non-elite military horses, difficult to attack.

Now there are less than two thousand people left in Luoyang City in Zhao Hao's hands, and there are only six or seven hundred people in front of Cheng Mansion at the moment, and they are assisted by equipment, in Cheng Jie's opinion, it is almost impossible to forcibly capture Cheng Mansion.

Hulala~

Before Zhao Hao could speak, a sharp and dull footsteps came, which startled everyone to look up, but saw that it was thousands of van troops, under the leadership of Du Gongcai, surging towards this side like a tide.

Zhao Hao saw that the comer was violent, and his strength was three or four times that of his own, so he couldn't help but be furious: "Prepare a crossbow, prepare to attack!" ”

With the sound of a crossbow machine, three hundred divine arm crossbows landed on the box of arrows, and turned around in unison to aim at the oncoming van army.

咴咴~

A violent neighing sound of a healthy horse sounded, and Du Gongcai hurriedly reined in the horse's feet, then slowed down the horse's speed, and went straight to Zhao Hao.

"Lord Qincha, Cheng Mansion is a grain merchant in western Beijing, and he has always obeyed the law, why is he besieged by heavy troops? The Cheng family has always had a good reputation in western Beijing, but if it provokes public resentment, I'm afraid it will be difficult to clean up! ”

Du Gongcai was obviously a little anxious, if something happened to Cheng Jie, he couldn't eat and walk, so he spoke to Zhao Hao straight to the point and straightforwardly.

Zhao Hao waited for him to come closer, then the whip pointed straight at him, and shouted in a deep voice: "Lord Du, you have been guarding the northwest road of Mujing for many years, do you know that Cheng Jie has hidden weapons and is preparing to rebel?" ”

"What?" Du Gongcai was messy, and said hurriedly, "Lord Qincha, what should I say about this, even if he borrows 10,000 guts from Cheng Jie, he will never dare to rebel." ”

Zhao Hao sneered, pointed to the wall and shouted, "Look at what is on it?" In my Great Song Dynasty, I secretly hid crossbow arrows and wanted to murder Qincha, what crime should I be guilty of? ”

Du Gongcai looked at the wall, and couldn't help but turn blue.

After the Tang and Song dynasties, the management of civilian weapons became more and more strict. After the Taizu of this dynasty bullied the orphans and widows of the Chai family to ascend the throne, he formulated the "Song Criminal Code", which clearly stipulated the control of weapons. In the Great Song Dynasty, you could have swords and other weapons, but you were never allowed to have armor; You can have bows and arrows to hunt and defend yourself, but you must not hide, manufacture, and use crossbow arrows. Armor is equivalent to body armor, crossbows are equivalent to submachine guns, and private possession is regarded as rebellion, which is the crime of extermination.

It's just that the matter of secretly hiding armor and crossbow arrows is strict to say, but it actually varies from person to person. Just like the Song Dynasty forbade killing cattle to eat meat, otherwise they would be sentenced, and many of those high-ranking officials and nobles had beef on their tables every day, how could there be so many cultivated cattle who were injured, killed, and died of illness, but for people with status, it is rare to be taken seriously by the government for eating beef. The same is true for the private possession of crossbow arrows, a big family like Cheng Fu, with millions of assets, does the house hide a hundred and ten crossbow arrows to deter thieves, who will really rebel as him, and a hundred and ten crossbow arrows will not be worth anything if he really rebels.

Now that Zhao Hao, as a messenger, strictly follows the provisions of the "Song Criminal Union", he regards the Cheng Mansion's private possession of crossbow arrows as if he was a rebellion, and the nearly 100 crossbow arrows on the wall are so dangling, and Du Gongcai can't turn a blind eye to talking nonsense.

Just when Du Gongcai was extremely embarrassed, Zhao Hao's voice became more and more severe, and he roared angrily: "Du Gongcai, you are leading the crowd here, do you want to rebel with Cheng Jie?" ”

With a choking sound, the Longquan sword came out of its sheath, which frightened Du Gongcai's soul and said urgently: "Since the Cheng Mansion is suspected of rebellion, please take care of Lord Qincha, and this official will not disturb Lord Qincha to handle the case." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand: "Withdraw!" Then he withdrew with the army in disgrace.

Du Gongcai has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, this time he saw that Zhao Hao was a stunned young man, and the gods couldn't stop him when he went crazy, and now he had Shang Fang's sword in his hand, if he really cut himself in anger, it would be a big deal, so he still walked and didn't touch this mold.

As for Cheng Jie, don't die in poverty, let him ask for more blessings, it's best to let her husband and Xiaoqin have a big shopping experience, and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, wouldn't it be more leisurely.

Therefore, Du Gong came quickly and withdrew faster, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of troops were hula-la-la, and it seemed that they had never come.

Seeing that Du Gongcai led people to leave, Zhao Hao's eyes were murderous, and his long sword was raised: "Attack!" ”

Those who make a fortune and suck up the flesh and blood of the people should take your sword!

The house slaves on the wall of Chengfu were lying on the wooden ladder, swords rattling, and the momentum was violent, seeing that Zhao Hao and the others did not dare to approach, they couldn't help but feel a little proud.

A general laughed coldly: "Jingxi is the territory of our Cheng family, the dragon has to be coiled, the tiger has to lie down, even if it is Qincha, it is like ......."

Shout~

A bolt of crossbow shot from a hundred and fifty paces away, tearing through the air and making a strong wind sound, like a meteor heading straight for the general's throat.

Burst~

There was a look of horror in the general's eyes, but he couldn't dodge, and the crossbow arrow went through his throat, and then fell down without a sound.

Woo Woo Woo ~ Before the other Cheng Mansion slaves could react, hundreds of crossbow arrows rained down the wall, only to hear the sound of flesh and bones breaking and screaming.

Before the Divine Arm Crossbow, their resistance was useless, and they could only be slaughtered.

……

Cheng Jie's son Cheng Qiang and grandson Cheng Feng rushed into the hall in a panic, and a group of Cheng family members behind them were even more disgraced and panicked, and the hall suddenly became a mess.

Cheng Jie sat on the Taishi's chair, his expression was quiet and peaceful, and he looked like Mount Tai had collapsed in front of him and his color did not change, and shouted: "You are waiting for a panic!" After my Cheng family is a famous family, the princes and ministers of the court, which one does not sell the face of the old man? Even if it is King Jia and King Jin Kangjun, when they see the old man, they must be like a guest, he is a third-grade official, and he is out of the clan of five suits, what else can I do? ”

His, unhurried, full of energy, made everyone's hearts feel a little calm.

A house slave hurriedly entered: "Qi Qi old official, the transfer envoy led the army to help, and is negotiating with the Qin Mission." ”

Du Gongcai was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was still unmoving, and he feigned anger and said: "That Xiao Qincha is young and ignorant, and he Du Gongcai is also not sensible, so he just came?" ”

As soon as everyone heard that the box army came to the rescue, the big stone in their hearts finally put down completely, and their faces showed joy, and some people scolded Zhao Hao for being rude, claiming to enter Beijing to sue the royal court.

After a stick of incense, I saw the housekeeper of Cheng Mansion stumbling over, and shouted: "Old official, old official......"

Cheng Jie stood up and asked, "But the little thief withdrew?" ”

The butler came running wildly, running out of breath, and when his breath was a little even, he cried out loudly: "The Jinyi guard has come in!" ”
