Xue Shao was still silent, waved a wave to signal Wu Ming and the others to step back, and said lightly: "I have asked the master to preside over a seven-day Buddhist puja for Liu Nu, and Xue will bear the cost." Xue will also personally cry and sacrifice to comfort the dead! ”

Liu Yuan trembled on the spot, his eyes were like copper bells, and he was completely stunned!

Wu Ming and the others were taken aback, "Young marshal, no!" ”

"I've made up my mind, don't say anything!" Xue Shao said it categorically, and everyone was speechless.

Liu Yuan was not only displeased, but his face was extremely frightened and uneasy, and he said in a suffrage: "Don't dare to bother Xue Dudu to break the fee...... This personal crying sacrifice is even more avoidable, right? ”

"Why, isn't this what you've always dreamed of?" Xue Shao turned his head and looked at Liu Yuan quietly, the corners of his mouth raised lightly and gave him a cold smile, and turned to leave. At the same time, he threw down a sentence -

"Wu Ming, Guo An, start preparing immediately, take a half-minute delay!"

The military order is like a mountain, Wu Ming Guo An promised loudly at the moment, "Yes!! ”

It's not so much a promise as a binge drink. The anger in the chests of these soldiers erupted on the spot, and once again scared Liu Yuan and the others enough.

Xu Changqing panicked in his heart, and without waiting for Liu Yuan to give him a look, he hurriedly caught up with Xue Shao with broken steps, and whispered as if begging for mercy: "Governor, the lower officials think that the law can be handled, but as long as the governor puts on his name and sticks of incense, he has fulfilled his mind." For the sake of the governor's name, this matter should not be publicized extravagantly......"

"You're wrong." Xue Shao paused for a moment, and deliberately said it to Liu Yuan, the old monk and others, and he said: "The big man dares to do it, even if he is a negative man, there is nothing that cannot be admitted." It's a pity that now that the deceased is gone, Xue can't give her much compensation. I can only apologize by relying on a ritual service. The dead are great, may those who swear rest in peace! ”

"......" Xu Changqing was stunned and speechless.

Xue Shao turned his head to look at Xu Changqing, his eyes were like knives. It made Xu Changqing feel weak and hairy, and cold sweat came down.

Xue Shao sneered, flicked his sleeves and walked away.

"Broken, broken...... Broken! Xu Changqing waved his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat and muttered the word.

Liu Yuan didn't care about Wu Ming and the others being present, so he hurriedly pulled Xu Changqing aside and asked in a low voice: "Have you inquired, what is the purpose of Xue Shao's move?" ”

"How could he tell me?" Xu Changqing was still wiping his cold sweat and said with a look of horror, "But, but, I can clearly see it from his eyes...... Kill, kill! ”

"Huh?" Liu Yuan was stunned and his whole body trembled, and he turned his head to look at Wu Ming and Guo An in horror, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "I never thought that Xue Shao would leave his name and be willing to do things for the little girl, and he would come to the crying sacrifice in person...... He doesn't care so much, we can't force him to comply! ”

"Ruthless, indeed a ruthless man!" Xu Changqing took a cool breath and suddenly glared, "Count Liu, you have gone too far in this matter!" ”

"Y-Where did I go too far?" Liu Yuan exclaimed in astonishment.

"Who is Xue Shao? Tianhuang nobles are the horses of the court, or the feudal officials with 100,000 male soldiers, even the Empress Dowager Wu, the emperor and the prime minister are afraid of him, and it is too late to win over him! Xu Changqing said hurriedly, "I only ask you to use your daughter's death to secretly coerce Xue Shao - like a dragonfly dotting water, it is the best." But it's good that you took him to your daughter's grave to nag on your own initiative, and even made such an impudent request to do things! …… To put it bluntly, even if Princess Taiping passed away, he didn't have to cry in person! How does your daughter compare to Princess Taiping?! - You, you, what is the difference between you and digging your own grave?! ”

When Liu Yuan heard this, he was completely panicked!

"What is the matter that has come to this?"

"I ...... I can't help you anymore! Xu Changqing flicked his sleeves and was about to run.

"Don't go! You stop! Liu Yuan completely ignored the image and dragged Xu Changqing to death, and was dragged by him to the ground for a few steps, and shouted in a hurry, "You tell me the truth, will Xue Shao ...... Move, use the army to come against me? ”

"That's only he knows!" Xu Changqing turned his face on the spot, shook his sleeves fiercely and tried to break free of Liu Yuan's hand, but Liu Yuan pulled too tightly. In a hurry, Xu Changqing opened his mouth and bit his shirt, and then raised his arm with all his strength to tear off half of his sleeve, and the person also broke free, and ran away on the spot.

"Xu Changqing, you villain, villain!! Liu Yuan tugged at the half of the sleeve and jumped to scold!

Xue Shao didn't go far, he stood at the corner of the mountain road outside the stone temple, standing on a small mound with his hands in his hands, and had a bird's-eye view of the entire Hongyun Castle.

The terrain is not complicated, where the troops can be stationed in the fort, where it is easy to ambush, where to fight and where to retreat, Xue Shao knows at a glance.

There was only one Niu Ben beside Xue Shao, who was scratching his head in anger, and his hair had been pulled down a lot. Xue Shao turned his head to look at him, Niu Ben hurriedly stood up straight, his eyes and nose and nose and heart, and he didn't move.

Xu Changqing ran out of the stone temple in a panic to look for Xue Shao, and at a glance, he almost ran over and fell at Xue Shao's feet, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"The lower official is guilty! The lower officials are guilty! Ask the governor to punish him! Xu Changqing knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, and soon broke his head, blood and dirt mixed together, turning into a sauce black.

Xue Shao said lightly: "What are your crimes?" ”

"This! ......" Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolling slightly.

"Since you can't say it yourself, how can I cure you?" Xue Shao smiled.

Xu Changqing was even more afraid, and his head was knocked even harder, "Governor spare your life!" Spare your life! ”

"One moment let me condemn my sin, one moment let me spare my life, what do you want?" Xue Shao didn't bother to look at him, he still stood with his hands in his hands and raised his eyes into the distance, and said lightly: "Heaven is evil, it is still violated; You can't live if you do your own evil! ”

Xue Shao fell, Niu Benhu roared and grabbed Xu Changqing's neck and lifted him up, and scolded angrily: "Okay, you bird, my son-in-law clearly gave you the opportunity to atone for your crimes, but you still don't know how to die!" ”

Niu Ben had infinite strength, and he lifted Xu Changqing directly above his head with one arm, and he was about to throw him down the hill and make meat puree. Xu Changqing kicked on all fours and screamed in fright, tears and snot flowed uncontrollably, and soon the crotch of his pants was wet, and there was a foul smell of feces and urine.

"Let him go." Xue Shao didn't reply, covered his mouth and nose and said in disgust, "Anyway, he is also an official of the imperial court, how can he kill in vain?" ”

Niu Ben threw Xu Changqing away with a huff, and fell directly to a foot away, almost half dead.

Rao is like this, Xu Changqing still crawled over, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, "Xia Guan knows all the things about Wu Yizong and Liu Yuan Yang Tong!" The lower officials are willing to confess and make meritorious contributions! ”

"No need." Xue Shao said lightly, "You know, I know everything." And what you don't know, I know. ”

"Huh?!" Xu Changqing was dumbfounded, and there was only one thought left in his heart: he was dead!

"Nian still has a trace of repentance, and there was a little bit of meritorious service before, I will send you your head." Xue Shao said lightly, "Go back to Suizhou and put yourself in prison." I'll talk about it when I get back. If you do misdeeds again, I will protect you from being ruined and ruined! ”

Xu Changqing froze as if petrified.

"Still not thankful to fuck off?!" Niu Ben drank.

"Yes, yes! Thank you for not killing the Governor! …… Xiaguan, go back to Suizhou and throw yourself into prison! Xu Changqing got up and prepared to leave, but after walking out of three steps, he hurriedly came back and knelt on the ground, bowed his hand and said: "Governor, the criminal officer has one more thing to tell - Liu Yuan is wide on the outside and jealous on the inside, kind on the outside but ruthless on the inside. If the governor pushes him into a hurry, he can do anything! There are 3,000 martial artists in Hongyun Castle, who are the people who licked blood with knives and knives that Liu Yuan and Yang Tong bought from the green forest road, and they are all ruthless. The governor might as well leave the fort as soon as possible, so as not to have an accident! ”

"Let's go!" Xue Shao turned his back to Xu Changqing and waved his hand.

Xu Changqing kowtowed a few times and staggered away in despair.

"Childe, why don't you slaughter this capricious thief? The more I look at him, the more unpleasant it becomes! Niu Ben shouted angrily.

"Governing is different from fighting, and it is better to punish the heart than to kill people." Xue Shao said, "Xu Changqing knew that his treacherous plan had been exposed, and he was terrified and terrified. If I kill them, I will only have dirty hands; If I don't kill him, he may still have a hint of survival fantasy and come to help me. ”

Niu Ben grinned, "Childe, it seems that villains also have the usefulness of villains!" ”

"Huh?" Xue Shao couldn't help but smile gracefully, "Not bad, you have long strength!" ”

Niu Ben smiled, "My father-in-law told me some ways to be an official before his death, and he also taught me the art of war. It's a pity that I'm stupid, I don't remember much! ”

As he was talking, Wu Ming came, his expression a little grim.

"Childe, Liu Yuan and Xu Changqing had a heated argument in public, as if they wanted to turn their faces." Wu Ming whispered, "So my subordinates guessed, would Liu Yuan jump off the wall in a hurry?" ”

Xue Shao smiled slightly, "It's best to jump." If he hadn't jumped, I'd have been a little disappointed! ”

Wu Ming was slightly stunned, and then smiled with relief, "Since Gongzi Zhizhu has already made arrangements in his hands, his subordinates will rest assured!" ”

"After that, I'll just do the rituals. You go and sternly warn all your brothers that our people should not take the initiative to provoke any contradictions and disputes. Xue Shao said, "The quieter we are, the more panicked Liu Yuan becomes. At the same time, you might as well spread some remarks to give Liu Yuan's panic a big boost. In short, either let him jump over the wall in a hurry, and let him take the initiative to confess his guilt! ”

"Yes!!"

Xue Shao nodded with a smile, took a light breath, and said, "The war ahead is tense, and there are many government affairs under the rule. Be sure to do it quickly! ”

"Yes!"

Under the repeated urging of Wu Ming and others, Shimiao started a Buddhist puja for Liu Nu on the same day. There were people from Xue Shao who preached everywhere, and the people of Hongyun Fort were attracted and rushed to see the excitement.

Xue Shao once presided over Pei Xingjian's funeral, and there was a manuscript of the sacrifice text. So with a slight revision, a memorial essay that was full of sorrow was written.

When the residents of the fort in the ten miles and eight towns came to see the excitement, Xue Shao was chanting the sacrifice loudly in the temple. Everyone listened for a while, and someone muttered in private: "It's strange, this person seems to be either rich or expensive, why did he come to pay tribute to the willow girl for no reason?" Listening to his sad words, he seems to have remorse, could it be that Liu Nu's death is related to him? ”

"Didn't the government come to close the case before, saying that the girl died of a sudden heart attack?"

"You know what! She first agreed to the marriage of the Yang family, and then privately fornicated with a green forest salt owl, and then messed with the family's groom in the boudoir day and night, but unexpectedly made her belly bigger, but she didn't know who the child's father was. In a fit of rage, his father chopped up the groom and fed it to the king of the river. His daughter knew that there was a lot of noise, but unexpectedly in the middle of the dispute, her father accidentally pushed her, and fell off the embroidery building and died! ”

"Is that so?"

"It's true! -- The old widower in Donglu was picking night incense in his backyard that day, and he hid in the dark and saw it with his own eyes! ”

One to ten, ten to hundred. Although the voice of people's discussion was small, it could not escape the ears of Zhang Renyuan, who were mixed in the crowd!
