Chapter 568: Ruthless
Zhang You asked if he didn't leave any travelers, he was sent to protect Zhang Yunxiu's safety, the situation was so tense just now, but he didn't see him, Zhang You had already noticed it, but he just remembered it.
"He's tracked down Dou Shide's clues, and he's been out for several days."
So that's the case, Zhang You suddenly realized, and asked in surprise: "Is Dou Shide really in Chongming?" β
Zhang Yunxiu said: "It shouldn't be wrong, Chang Yin bumped into that guy in the county seat, but unfortunately he was himself at that time, and he was run away by that guy." β
Chang Yin is Zhang You's guard, one of those people who were sent by Qi Jiguang with Tang Erzhuang, last time Zhang You wrote a letter to ask Tang Erzhuang and them to come over to help, Tang Erzhuang and they went to Dongting County, and he was sent to Chongming - Liu Chuanfang once recruited Dou Shide to be arranged by him to Chongming, although Zhang You was suspicious, he still found someone who had seen Dou Shide.
"It seems that the surname Liu is not lying, Dou Shide doesn't know if there is that kind of poison in his hand, and he must be more careful in his diet in the future."
Zhang Yunxiu nodded: "I've been paying attention to it for a long time, the people I use are all believed, but it's hard to guard against thieves day and night, and I still hope that Lao Xu can catch that guy." β
"I hope that I will find a few spirits to follow Wang Hua and Chen Hu." Zhang You said.
Zhang Yunxiu agreed, and couldn't help asking, "What about that old man?" He seems to be quite prestigious. β
Zhang You hesitated for a moment and said, "I feel that this matter should have nothing to do with him, but just in case, send someone to spy on it." β
After dark, Chen Hu entered the county office through the back door, not noticing the followers in the dark behind him.
"When did you dare to run to me, not afraid of being discovered?" After seeing Chen Hu, Wang Hua's first sentence was to complain, he had not forgotten Zhang You's identity, that was the leader of all the Jinyiwei in the entire south of the Yangtze River, although he had not dealt with Jinyiwei much, but he also knew something about their methods.
"When you see it, you see it, I'm your old people, who is in the way of coming to visit my husband and ancestor?" Chen Hu said indifferently.
Old husband ancestor is the honorific title of the magistrate in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Wang Hua sighed: "You, sit down and talk, in fact, even if you don't come to the official, the official has to send someone to find you, Zhang Pinggu asked you and Chen Liansheng what they wanted, there is no nonsense, right?" β
"Don't worry, my third uncle asked him when he came back, there should be no problem. We did this thing seamlessly, the accounts were burned, and Zhang You couldn't find anything wrong with Bao Gong's reincarnation...... Your Excellency, Your Excellency? β
Wang Hua looked at the candle flame, not knowing what he was thinking, Chen Hu shouted several times before coming back to his senses: "I'm not worried about this, what I'm worried about is that the conflict didn't get out Master Xu will definitely be disappointed when he finds out, you know, a hundred acres of land is nothing, the important thing is that we have to find a way to stop them from opening the shipyard." β
"Yes, I was also worried about this matter, so I came to find an adult," Chen Hu echoed, and said worriedly: "Who would have thought that Zhang You would arrive so timely?" Who would have thought that kid would be so strong and completely control the situation as soon as he arrived? Even if it's a little bit late, we'll be successful. β
"What's the use of talking about that now? Let's figure it out. Wang Hua sighed and said, how could he not be annoyed, but the matter has come to this point, he can't just watch the plan that has been brewing for a long time run aground because of Zhang You's appearance, right? It was not easy for him to become the current magistrate of the county, and even a hundred percent of the money sent out has not been recovered.
Chen Hu was silent, took out a cigarette pot from his sleeve, took out a purse containing tobacco leaves, dug out a bag of cigarettes from it, lit it with a candle flame, and took a puff, the smoke was filled, and the choked Wang Hua coughed a few times.
"Choking, I really don't know what to smoke?" Wang Hua complained dissatisfiedly and moved his chair back.
Chen Hu didn't respond, took a few more puffs, and then knocked the cigarette pot under his feet twice and put it on the coffee table next to him.
The room was silent, and the two sat silent, so quiet that they could hear their breathing.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a faint sound of bangs in the distance, and it was the first shift.
As if awakened by the sound of bangzi, Wang Hua suddenly spoke, his voice a little dry: "No, we have to find a way to re-provoke the anger of the people, otherwise if Pinggu really hands over the murderer, we won't have any reason to toss anymore." β
"It's not okay to hand over the murderer, the shipyard still occupies my place, there has to be an explanation, right?"
"What do you want to say? Want silver? Even if you ask for 100 taels per acre of land, do you think he seems like the kind of person who is short of 10,000 taels of silver? β
"Give me how much money I won't sell the assembly, right?" Chen Huming knew that what Wang Hua said made sense, but he still said unconvinced.
Wang Hua smiled bitterly: "Do you think it's okay?" Don't forget your identity, don't forget the Queen Mother's will, unless you're really tired of being crooked. really annoyed the Queen Mother, do you think Lord Xu can protect you? β
Chen Hu was deflated: "This can't do this, it doesn't work, what the hell is going to do, my husband and ancestor hurry up and give a clear indication!" β
Wang Hua sneered and said: "Let me see, for the sake of today's plan, we can only take risks, as the saying goes, reluctant children can't trap wolves, you go and kill Chen Liansheng later, it's best not to have external injuries, just say to the outside world that you will see him die as soon as you go, and lead his death to Zhang Pinggu, he has a high prestige, and he has the trust of the people in your town, as long as everyone believes your statement......"
"Isn't that okay?" Chen Hu interrupted, he suddenly found that Wang Hua at this moment had a hideous face, very scary, and couldn't help but shiver, saying that the heart of being an official is ruthless, this surnamed Wang is white and pure and polite, who would have thought that it would be so vicious?
"What's wrong?" Wang Hua's eyes shot a terrifying light.
"The folks definitely don't believe it, it's been back for a long time, if you did this when you were still at the construction site, it's almost the same, now, it's unreasonable."
"Don't forget that Zhang You is known as a miracle doctor, he can kill people if he can save people, Dou Shide has a chronic poison in his hand that was made by the imperial doctor Huang Boqiang, Huang Boqiang can do it, why can't Zhang You? Chen Liansheng is your clan uncle, and no one can suspect you if the villagers suspect you. β
"However, this matter has not been investigated, I heard that Zhang You is a good hand at solving cases......"
"Are you stupid? Can we still give him some time to check? As soon as you provoke the anger of the villagers, you will immediately take them to the construction site, and as long as you see blood, it will be difficult for the anger of the people to be controlled so easily. β
"This ...... That's my uncle, I ......."
"Is Uncle Clan important or is life important? I've told you the method, it's up to you whether you do it or not, anyway, if I can't do it, I'll be dismissed from office at most, as for you, I don't know how Lord Xu will clean you up, think about it. β
Chen Hu's face changed when he heard this, and after a long time, he suddenly stood up, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, for the sake of Lord Xu, let it go, my husband and ancestor are waiting for my good news!" After saying that, he picked up the cigarette pot, turned around and strode out of the door, and when Wang Hua chased him out of the door, his figure had long disappeared into the night.
