Chapter Seventy-Three: Threats and Compromises (I)

When the two companions rushed to report to An Liyu that An Jizong had been kidnapped, Eunuch An was listening to the servants singing the Tale of the West Chamber in his spacious back hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Once he understood what they were doing, An Li was stunned at first, and after staying for a long time, he suddenly smashed out his favorite wine glass carved from a whole piece of high-grade Hetian white jade, and in front of him was still babbling and singing: "What kind of mourning are you howling, get out of here!" ”

When a few servants left the hall in fear, only the two frightened companions were left to face the angry father-in-law An. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a voice without any emotion: "You tell everything before and after Jizong's captivity, remember, there must be no omission. ”

The two glanced at each other, and they had to bite the bullet and tell the matter as it was: "A few days ago, Childe met a stunning beauty when he was visiting the West Lake......

After they had finished talking about what had happened, An Li stared at them coldly: "So, you just watched Jizong being taken away like this?" ”

Sensing that the situation was not good, the two of them weakened their knees at that time, knelt down in front of An Li, and repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Father-in-law spare his life!" We did our best, but the two were so powerful that we were thrown off the boat as soon as we started. By the time we struggled back to the ship, Childe had been taken away. By the way, the two kidnappers also claimed to be Jinyiwei...... "At this time, they only thought about how to calm An Li's anger and how to atone for their sins, so naturally they didn't dare to miss any known clues."

Seeing that the two of them couldn't say anything useful, An Li ordered: "Come on, drag these two useless things down for me and beat them to death!" ”

"Yes!" The guards who had been waiting outside immediately stepped forward, dragged the two unlucky eggs and walked out. The two of them struggled desperately, and kept begging for mercy, but An Li had long since stopped caring about their lives and deaths, and had his mind on those captives, guessing who those who dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head would be.

An Li only said at first that some blind thieves wanted to kidnap their son by kidnapping the rich son to extort money. But when the two of them said that An Jizong had already reported his name, this speculation was ruled out. On the ground in Zhejiang, no thief has ever dared to tie up his father-in-law's son, otherwise he would have gotten the ransom, but I am afraid that he would not be able to spend his life.

"Jinyiwei ......" An Yiwei muttered in the middle of the crime, not sure that the two of them said that it was Jinyiwei who kidnapped people was true, he didn't believe that Shen Zhuo's subordinates would be so blind-eyed and dare to use their minds on their son. But after thinking about it, he still didn't have the slightest clue, and he had to think about this first.

"Someone, go and call Shen Zhuo to me, so that he can come to me immediately without delay." An Li immediately ordered that even if this matter really had nothing to do with Jin Yiwei, he had to use the power of these people to find An Jizong.

In less than half an hour, Shen Zhuo had already come to An Li's face with sweat. After handing out a hundred taels of silver, he already knew why Grandpa An was in a hurry to call him over, but this made him even more nervous. He knew very well how important An Jizong was to An Li, and now that he had been taken captive, he was afraid that Gonggong An would already be angry.

"Father-in-law, you called the lower officials to ......"

An Li didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and sneered: "Shen Qianhu, you are really bold, you have knocked on our family's head." I also dared to tie up our son. ”

"Huh?" Shen Zhuo was stunned at first, but then he understood the meaning of these words, and immediately called out to hit the sky: "The father-in-law is wronged, the lower official has the courage of heaven, and he doesn't dare to touch Gongzi An at all." And Xia Guan has been quite peaceful recently, and he hasn't even tied up anyone. If the father-in-law doesn't believe it, he can let people go to my thousand households to search, as long as he can find Gongzi An, the lower officials are willing to be killed! As he spoke, he knelt down.

Seeing him like this, An Li's expression, who knew Shen Zhuo's courage slightly, softened slightly, but still said coldly: "Then you say, who else in Hangzhou City who has eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard dares to attack my son?" Also, according to people, the two people at that time claimed to be Jinyiwei. You don't have the guts, but can you guarantee that you don't have that kind of crazy person under you? ”

"Xiaguan can guarantee that absolutely no one under my command will dare to ......" At this point, Shen Zhuo suddenly remembered something, his face changed suddenly, and he couldn't go on with the words of the package ticket in the back.

"Well, what do you think of?" An Li was staring at him, and when he saw his expression, he knew that he had something to hide.

"Xia Guan thought that there are indeed people who have the courage to do this, those few Jinyi guards who were transferred from Huguang ......" Shen Zhuo shook his head again and said: "But it's impossible, Xia Guan has been sending people to keep an eye on them." If they dare to do that kind of thing, they won't escape my ears. ”

"That's them! Except for them, no one in the whole of Hangzhou has the courage to do such a thing. You go and ask them to come back to me now, and if he loses a hair, I will only ask you!" An Li seemed much more confident than Shen Zhuo, because he thought of the meeting outside the building. Those people dared to be so presumptuous to themselves as soon as they arrived in Hangzhou, and today they naturally have the courage to kidnap their own son.

Shen Zhuo didn't dare to refute An Li at this time, so he lowered his head and said yes, and was about to leave. At this time, An Li advised again: "Remember, keeping Jizong is the top priority to see them this time, as long as you can let him come back safely, you can promise them anything." Got it? ”

"Yes, yes, as long as they really did it, the lower officials will definitely bring the son back safely." After making another guarantee, Shen Zhuo withdrew from the door, and it was only then that he had time to wipe the sweat off his face. As he walked towards the gate, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter had nothing to do with Tang Feng and them.

First of all, Tang Feng and the others have the will to do this, after all, they have been in Hangzhou for a few months, and their situation has not improved, so they naturally hope to change the status quo through extraordinary means; Secondly, it is needless to say that they have the courage to do so; Finally, it is their ability, they can stir up such a big storm in Wuchang, and they can fight with people on the canal, it should not be difficult to avoid their own eyeliner.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhuo was almost certain that Tang Feng and the others had done this, which made him feel very annoyed, but he was helpless. For these subordinates, he Shen Qianhu really didn't dare to come hard, not only because these people were already on the list in the court and couldn't move temporarily, but also because he had long lost his sharpness.

"Hey, I can't say that I can only make some concessions......" Shen Zhuo only sighed in his heart when he straddled the horse and led people straight to Tang Feng's residence.

After another half an hour, Shen Zhuo finally came to the outside of Tang Feng's mansion. At this time, the spies of the brocade guards who were ordered to keep an eye saw that they had brought people from their own thousand households, and they all came over strangely to ask for instructions.

Glancing at them angrily, Shen Zhuocai said, "Have you been staring at them all the time?" ”

"Back to Qianhu, we have been staring at it, and we don't dare to relax in the slightest."

"Really? In this case, why were they able to arrest all the righteous sons of Father-in-law An? ”

"This ...... This is absolutely impossible. Although they went out, we followed them all the time, and we didn't see them have any arguments with anyone. ”

"It's not helpful to say more. Someone, go and open the door, and say that I, Shen Zhuo, want to see Tang Feng. Shen Zhuo glanced at these useless subordinates helplessly, and had to order.

The gate was quickly opened, and Tang Feng and his subordinates were all wearing flying fish suits at this time, carrying embroidered spring knives, and greeted them with a prepared appearance. This momentum has completely suppressed Shen Zhuo and the others who came in a hurry, only wearing civilian clothes.

But Shen Zhuo didn't have any unhappiness at all because of this, but he was sure in his heart. This shows that his judgment is not wrong, the person is indeed captured by Tang Feng and them, otherwise they would not have dressed up and waited for them early.

"I've seen a thousand households. I don't know why Shen Qianhu suddenly came here today? Tang Feng bowed according to the rules, but he looked innocent.

"Tang Feng, you don't have to pretend anymore, what good things have you done, don't you know yet?" Shen Zhuo didn't have the heart to go around in circles with him at all, so he said straight to the point: "Did you kidnap anyone today?" ”

I didn't want Tang Feng to shake his head: "What did Qianhu say, we are Jinyiwei, how could we do such a thing as kidnapping people and breaking the law?" ”

"...... you" Seeing that he flatly denied it, Shen Zhuo's words were blocked for a while, and he didn't know what to say.

But Tang Feng then said, "But we did bring in a good man today. I don't know if Shen Qianhu is here to have something to do with this person? ”

When Shen Zhuo heard him say this, he was almost so angry that he fell headlong, but at this time, he was still picking out words and playing tricks. But Shen Zhuo, who understood his purpose for coming, still suppressed the anger in his heart, and snorted: "You can say whatever you want, you must hand over this person to this official." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Tang Feng just smiled indifferently, and didn't say good, nor did he say bad.

But this reaction was the most embarrassing to Shen Zhuo. As his boss, he asked Tang Feng to hand over people, and he actually asked why, isn't this what he is looking at?

But after all, Shen Zhuo's endurance and kung fu were first-class, so he said patiently: "Do you know who you took down?" That's Father-in-law's righteous son, you dare to take his righteous son for no reason, isn't this going to be an enemy of Father-in-law An? Don't let people go to this thousand households! ”

Hearing him say this, Tang Feng looked obviously taken aback: "Is he really the righteous son of Father-in-law An?" When he revealed his identity just now, I thought he was bluffing. ”
