Chapter 69: Ghosts in the Heart

At night, in the back office of the magistrate, the magistrate of the county sat on the main seat, the master of Qian and Feng Zhisi sat at the bottom, and the candles in the hall were dim, reflecting the faces of the three of them becoming more and more gloomy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"This king's punishment this time is that the one who came is not good, the good one is not coming, the county minister, you have a wide network in the court, I don't know if there is any news?" Feng Zhusi asked after a long silence.

Without waiting for the county magistrate to answer, Qian Zhushu snorted first, "What other news, this Wang Ti criminal officer must be here to investigate and deal with the tax and silver deficit in the past few years, as well as the murder case of the family that was ruined by you and the death of Qian Zhusi." ”

Feng Zhisi was anxious when he heard this, "Why did I hurt it, didn't you say that you want to kill people and kill people?" Besides, the tax money and your money master book didn't take a penny, how can you ask me to be responsible for the second party at this time. ”

The magistrate pinched his brows and shouted, "What are you two arguing about?" The one surnamed Wang didn't come, but you messed up first, and you have the kung fu to quarrel, it's better to find someone to figure out the county's accounts, and you also said that as long as the accounts are arranged, the person surnamed Wang can't find out, and the check can't turn over any waves. ”

"There is a deficit of more than 100,000 taels, it is not possible to change the account books, no matter how clean this account is, there are always flaws, with the ability of the king to raise the punishment, it will definitely be found out, I said that before, but in order to appease the hearts of everyone in the county, in my opinion, we will not do anything." Qian Zhushu pinched his throat, swiped down with his right hand, and made a head-killing gesture.

Feng Zhisi was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly stopped: "That's a person from the imperial court, who died in our Yang Valley for no apparent reason, the imperial court will definitely be furious, and when the time comes, we will all be guilty of killing our heads, and no one can save us." ”

Master Qian looked at Feng Zhusi with cold eyes, "We can't kill people, can't we set fires?" Find someone to come out for the dead ghost, and burn the account books and treasury clean with a fire, but see how the king will check the punishment. ”

Feng Zhusi's back was cold when he was looked at by the Qian master book, and his brows were about to squeeze into a pimple, this money master book looks like a person who is swenwen, how can he kill people and set fire to his head, it is really a shame not to be a thief, since he got on his thief ship, he has never been happy.

Turning his head to look at the magistrate, he hoped that he could say a few words, and nip the idea of killing people and setting fire to the money master book in the bud, we are all readers, since we are readers, why can't we sit down and talk? Fighting, killing, and killing will ultimately lose the demeanor of a scholar.

The magistrate is also thinking, killing people is absolutely impossible, assassinating the court official is a big crime, if you don't make a good one, sentence you to agree to treason, and it is possible to intend to rebel, no one can afford such a thing, no one will bear it, but arson is different, as long as it does not hurt the lives of officials, it is nothing to kill and injure a few officials, but no one will take it to heart.

Moreover, the Zhizhou Governor and the county set fire to the account books to destroy the evidence of the crime, which is not unprecedented, and it is not a secret in Shilin, the builder of Yueyang Tower, Teng Zongliang Teng Zijing, a friend of Fan Wenzhenggong [Fan Zhongyan]. It is one of the examples, in the office of the governor of Jingzhou, this vine minister spent countless official goods, when the matter was exposed, the court sent a supervisor to check his minister's money account book, he was a decisive person, only burned a fire, burned those account books and books clean, the imperial court imperial history saw it, and there was nothing to do. The lawsuit went to the end, but it was changed to a different place to be the governor, of course, this has something to do with Fujikojing's treatment in the court.

With this plan to lay the foundation, the matter of the account book can be regarded as having a way to deal with it, if the surname Wang is lucky, he owes him a personal favor, if he doesn't give face, then his own fire is released, and he can't help himself.

"The affairs of the account book, just follow the affairs of the money master's book, but be careful in doing things, don't leave any handles, as for the money charge, he has turned into a forest of white bones, and there is no proof of death, what kind of demon wind can he do." At the end, he took a sip of tea, and added, "If you don't feel at ease, send your henchmen to take a look again, there are still several days of work left and right before he can arrive, and he has done it carefully." ”

Seeing him say this, Feng Zhisi could only nod his head and say yes.

Raising his eyes and looking at the hour, thinking about the beautiful girl in the house, his heart was hot, and the county magistrate picked up the tea bowl and took a sip slowly.

Qian and Feng were both human spirits, and they knew that this was the meaning of lifting tea to send guests, so they both sang and retreated.

………………

The cold moon hung high, plating a layer of silver light on the ground of the courtyard of Ximenqing's house, and occasionally the cold wind blew, and the dry branches rustled.

In the lobby, the lights and candles are brilliant, and the brothers and heroes around Ximenqing are drunk and lying in it, drinking and eating meat. Although Su Sheng was a newcomer, he was not snubbed at all, and was pulled by Jiao Ting, fighting with Zeng Rui.

After three bowls of belly, the victory was mixed with a familiar face, and the chips were staggered, so unhappy. I have been walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time, I am used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, and I have learned how to treat each other coldly, where is there such a lively, I looked at the hall, all of them are straightforward men with tigers and bears, and I said in my heart that I really voted for the right person, otherwise Ximenqing would not have gathered such a good man.

With the rise of eating and drinking, Zeng Rui couldn't bear Jiao Ting's drinking, got up and said with a smile: "Jiao Ting, they all say that you are good at wrestling, but I am not convinced, I also learned it when I was young, but it was abandoned later, come and come, I will accompany you to wrestle." ”

Jiao Ting also smiled: "You are not an opponent when you eat wine, and this wrestling is not successful, you need to know that I am an ancestral wrestling method, and how many heroes have fallen." ”

"How do you know if you haven't fallen, don't say much, just come, you're not afraid." Zeng Rui shouted.

Yang Bin is usually good friends with Zeng Rui, and said with a smile when he saw this: "Jiao Ting, don't give him a dough, just beat him, this guy is rough and thick-skinned." ”

"Cheng, I'll play with you, and if you lose, you will be punished for drinking."

"Punishment is punishment, can't I drink if I can't beat it? But it's okay, if I lose, I have to worship you as a teacher, and you have to teach me a few tricks. ”

Everyone was overwhelmed when they heard it, it turned out that this black man Zeng Rui was playing tricks here, and he was worried about other people's wrestling methods, and he was embarrassed to say that he used such a scoundrel method.

Although Zeng Rui looks rude, he is still a meticulous person inside, otherwise he would not have gathered more than a dozen splashes under his subordinates, this time he changed his ability to learn the law, and he also thought about it, he wanted to follow Ximen Qing, then he had to have some real skills, seeing that there were more and more people with strong martial arts around Ximen Qing, he couldn't be underestimated, otherwise where would he put his big face, and how would the name of the Xiashan Tiger be blown out.

Jiao Ting is not a stingy person, although this person's skills cannot be passed on, but it is still possible to teach others a few tips, get up, set up a portal, and beckoned to Zeng Rui, "Brother, can I say a word?" It's just that my wrestling skills are not easy to learn, so you have to be careful. ”

Zeng Rui smiled: "Look at me." He knew that he was not Jiao Ting's opponent, but relying on his strength, he wanted to use brute force to overturn Jiao Ting, and he pounced on him with a strange scream.

What kind of person is Jiao Ting, Li Kui's and other black gods are not his opponents when they have no blades, not to mention Zeng Rui, who is one size smaller, although Zeng Rui is strong, but looking at his stiff posture, wrestling skills are also difficult to know, he has no advantage except for full strength.

Although he was able to subdue him with one move, Jiao Ting kept his face in the end, and in the face of Zeng Rui's vicious pounce, he neither retreated, nor dodged, neither punched nor kicked, and pulled away in lunges, and pounced on Jiao Ting.

The four arms suddenly crossed over, and the four big hands grabbed each other's shoulders, and no one took a step back.

"It's a lot of strength, but wrestling is not bigger than strength." Jiao Ting's body was on one side, his calf hooked outward, and he threw Jiao Ting to the ground, raising a lot of dust.

"You kid really don't keep his hands." Zeng Rui lay on the ground and shouted with grinning. "I lost, you have to teach me, or I won't get up."

………………

Ximenqing had a few drinks with everyone, don't hide away for some reason, and when he arrived in the room where he usually discussed, a few people had already waited here, and he looked at it, it was not the Huo family brothers, the second uncle Liu and the second leader Li Jun of Wollongong.

He arched his hand and said: "I can't invite a few brothers to eat and drink in the front yard lobby, it's my sin, forgive my sin." ”

"Where is my brother, I am a person who cannot see the light, thanks to Brother Simon's refusal to give up, and because of my brother's life, how dare I complain?" Li Jun has seen Ximenqing's power in Yanggu in the past few days, and he has long been subdued, coupled with Ximenqing's extravagance and benevolence, the unwillingness and resentment in his heart have long disappeared. One day, I can also make trouble and eat and drink.

The two brothers of the Huo family also got up and saluted back, and said with a smile: "What kind of friendship do we have, why do you still say these words, this time if you Ximen Dalang is righteous, we have empty wealth in our hands and cannot use it, wouldn't it make people laugh." ”

After a few polite greetings, a few people went straight to the topic, and in the future, the matter of private business will be taken care of by Second Uncle Liu and Li Jun, Li Jun turned out to be the leader of the bandits, and he must not stay by his side, if he leaks the news and is seen by acquaintances, Ximenqing will have to bear a big lawsuit, which he does not want to see now.

arranged for him to take care of his private business, firstly, to be able to watch him with the help of the Huo family brothers, and secondly, to give him something to do, so as to calm his mind and not have evil thoughts.

"In the future, our business, don't get in, although I am not afraid, but after all, there is some trouble, in a few days I plan to buy a Zhuangzi outside the city, we will ship there, one is safe, and the other is much more convenient."

"Ximen Dalang is worthy of being the head of the capital, what he thinks about is comprehensive, when you settle down, just call someone to inform you."

Ximen Qing humbled a few words, and said a few words to Li Jun to calm his mind.

After being promoted to the head of the capital this time, he couldn't do many things himself, including gambling stalls, private salt, etc., he had to ask someone to come forward on his behalf, and he hid behind the scenes to manipulate it, so that he saved a lot of gold and silver without damaging his own reputation, and his subordinates also had something to do, and they could benefit from it, so they killed two birds with one stone.
