Chapter 145: Ten Thousand Taels of Silver

"Xie Yuangong, what are you going to do in Beihe?" Although Liu Xuliao vowed to do things seriously or something, his temperament could not be changed instantly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You don't need to ask what to do, just listen to the instructions, this trip to Beihe, the errands are complicated, but it is not so easy to do. Now that we have crossed the river, everything must be cautious, and we have set off, and there must be some people who have received some rumors. Although Zhu Zhenguo knew that he had done a good job of secrecy here, he also knew that this matter could not really be kept secret.

The main leak point is Emperor Chengping, although Emperor Chengping ordered Ouyang Zheng to do this, he was worried that if he wanted to come to several major cabinets to investigate the fraud in the Beihe imperial examination, it would also be discussed.

It is difficult to travel, the ancients are even more difficult to walk, Zhu Zhenguo's team of people and horses, neither is an important minister of the court, nor does he have a reputation for success, so it is impossible for anyone to receive along the way, everything is taken care of by himself, and he will walk about seventy miles from day to night, mainly because the winter days are too short, and he has to find a place to stay and this kind of thing, fortunately, it is quite smooth.

After traveling for more than 20 days, I didn't feel anything else, but it was hard and boring all the way. It was also Zhu Zhenguo who didn't expect that Liu Xuliao would persist and not complain at all.

Last night was spent overnight in the wilderness, did not find a village or town to stay, set off today, but the spring is bright, there are no pedestrians on the official road, basically about to enter Beihe County, everyone is in a much better mood, the front of the official road leads to a small pine forest, this forest is sparse, not tight, obviously there are many people in this forest to chop firewood and the like.

Everyone also knew that they were about to enter this Beihe County, and their spirits had come back a lot, and they laughed on the way, not like they were silent before, just in a hurry.

Suddenly, there were seven or eight healthy horses walking in front of him, which were also the steppe horses, but they were not horses. Thinking that this Beihe County has been to the border town in the past, this healthy horse is more common.

Seven or eight black-suited knights galloped frontally, and the pipe was not narrow, but it could not accommodate seven or eight healthy horses side by side.

"Stop, give way to them." Zhu Zhenguo is low-key, and whenever there is a larger horse team or caravan along the way, Zhu Zhenguo will give way first.

But it was these seven or eight horsemen who came quickly, and did not go directly over, but restrained the horses in front of everyone.

A big man with a shoulder knife in front of him calmed the horses and walked forward.

"You're from the capital?" This big man's words are not polite.

Zhu Zhenguo also wondered, thinking in his heart that this person had recognized the wrong person.

"I'm here to hit Zhongjing, I don't know what happened to the strong man?" Zhu Zhenguo is in another country, but he also knows to be cautious and humble.

"It's you, my master asked me to send something." After the big man finished speaking, he waved back.

The four or five knights behind them struck forward, and no one immediately tied a large bag, and several knights untied five large bags and threw them on the ground, but they retreated.

"What? Who is your master? Zhu Zhenguo was also curious.

"Adults don't need to be surprised, it's a good object, who is the owner of my house, adults don't need to ask, I'll talk about it after seeing the object." This big man is not in a hurry.

Zhu Zhenguo didn't ask much, the medicine in this gourd would have to be poured out sooner or later. looked at Liu Xuliao on the side, waved his hand and ordered.

Of course, Liu Xuliao understood, dismounted and walked a few steps forward, opening one of the big bags.

"Xie Yuangong, it's silver, big silver ingots." Liu Xu opened a big bag, but he was also shocked, all of which were one hundred taels of big silver ingots, and he couldn't hold one silver ingot in his palm. These five pockets are only afraid of tens of thousands of taels.

"I wonder what your master means?" Zhu Zhenguo also guessed a lot in his heart, and he thought that the rumors had leaked out, and these seven or eight horsemen were blocking themselves in this place where there was no village in front of the village and no store in the back, but they came to bribe.

"The meaning of my master is also understood by the adults, and the villain doesn't need to say more, but he needs an answer from the adult." In fact, this man doesn't know what is going on, and this is also taught by the master. This man is also a subordinate who does things, and he must not know the secrets.

"Oh, in this case, I will accept the silver taels, and you go to reply to your family, and say that my criminal department will definitely do a good job, and the upper is worthy of the emperor's grace, and the lower is worthy of the people of Limin. That's how you go back to your house, my lord. Zhu Zhenguo obviously knew what the man's master wanted to answer, but how could Zhu Zhenguo be bought by this ten thousand taels of silver.

"My master didn't explain it like this, and the answer my master wanted was that everything was right." Although the big man didn't know what the specific matter was, he also knew what the answer was for the master. It's definitely not worthy of the emperor's grace and worthy of the people.

"You just go back to your master like this, you don't need to ask, the official only has to arrange." Zhu Zhenguo didn't want to play any dumb riddles with this big man, so he accepted the money, and the emperor's errand with the teacher had to be done.

"Hmph... My lord must be dissatisfied with this, but my lord must think about it, and when I enter this North River, I can't act according to the rules of Zhongjing. "This man also wants to complete the task assigned by the master, and if he goes back with such a reply, he will inevitably suffer a sin.

"You're trying to threaten the official?" Zhu Zhenguo was also angry in his heart, he was just about to arrive in Beihe County, but he was threatened by a few subordinates, where is there such a thing.

"My lord, you are a seven-grade official in Zhongjing, but you want to toast and not eat and drink?" The man's face was also fierce. Obviously, he also knew who he was coming here for, but he was just a seven-grade sesame official in Zhongjing City, and he didn't really take it seriously in his heart.

Zhu Zhenguo heard this, but instead of being angry, he laughed, pulled the reins, and the horse paced left and right for two steps.

"But you think a certain family's knife is not good?" Zhu Zhenguo has been threatened so blatantly, how can he not be angry.

This man listened to Zhu Zhenguo's words, and he also knew in his heart that there was no room for turning back in this matter, and he didn't say much, and he also knew in his heart that this toast was given, and some people didn't eat it. The punishment of wine must also follow, in this era of bandits are rampant, this punishment of wine is very easy to manipulate, just wait for their own adults to arrange.

"Take the bag back and we'll go." The black-clothed man instructed his subordinates behind, but he was about to take the silver two back to pay the errand.

The men behind them struck forward again, ready to tie the big bag that had been thrown on the ground back to their horses.

Where is Zhu Zhenguo such a good talker, he said before that he accepted the money himself, but where can he let people take it back.

The hard bow was in the bow pouch behind him, and he picked it up casually, opened the bow and set up the arrow, and the arrow was shot.

The arrows were sticking in front of the men who were about to collect the pockets. It was seven or eight inches into the soil where the official road was trampled tightly.

"Zhu Zhenguo, what do you mean by this?" The man said angrily. (To be continued.) )
