Chapter 324: Influence on the Road West

Even if this bloody case is outrageous after reading it, even if the truth of this assassination still fails to investigate a clue, but for the sake of the heavy responsibility on their shoulders and the overall situation of Shanxi, Zhong Yu and they can only temporarily leave all this behind and take rushing to Datong as the top priority.

However, they still delayed a little time in Xin County, in addition to calming the people's hearts, they also arrested and imprisoned all the county officials involved in the assassination, and then submitted the matter to Taiyuan Prefecture for trial and handling by local officials there.

Although it is true that the families of these officials were also victims, the imperial court has its own decrees, and their collusion with the assassins cannot be washed away, and they should be severely punished according to the law. As for the official affairs of Xin County during this time, fortunately, there were a few lucky yamen officials who were not affected, and with them plus the twenty capable soldiers and Jinyi Wei lieutenants left by Zhong Yu to watch, it was enough to stabilize the situation in the county, and wait for the response from the Taiyuan Mansion.

After finishing these, two more days passed, and Zhong Yu set off again, and under the escort of the Qincha guards, he once again embarked on the road to Datong in the north.

After the turmoil in Xin County, neither Zhong Yu nor the rest of the team had any intention of socializing with local officials. In fact, not only them, but also those officials along the road have heard about the changes in Xin County, so naturally they don't dare to entertain this Qincha team as warmly as Yang Xian.

As a result, the journey of the Qincha team was a little faster than before. Often after arriving at a certain state and county boundary, the local officials just greet them politely, and then say a few words of the scene, and then respectfully send them out, this time it is like sending a plague god, after all, no one wants to have a similar experience with Xin County officials.

However, even though the speed of the Qincha team has been greatly accelerated, it is still not as fast as the speed of the Xin County assassination in Shanxi, when they are still hundreds of miles away from Datong, the news of the assassination has already spread to Datong, and it immediately caused a lot of shock.

Still in that hall, the black-faced general's face was three points darker, and even looked so gloomy that it could drip water. And after seeing his appearance, the generals sitting below also looked nervous, and they didn't even dare to breathe, let alone talk about something like before.

After being silent for a long time, causing cold sweat to break out on the backs of many generals, the black-faced general snorted: "Presumably, you should all know the intention of calling you here today, right?" ”

After a little silence, a general cautiously asked, "What did the general refer to about Xinxian County, which had just been reported?" ”

"What do you think about that?" The black-faced general replied with a question.

"Those assassins are too bold, if they are committed in our hands, they will definitely be told to live and not die!"

"That's it, we actually dare to assassinate Lord Qincha in our Shanxi territory, I really don't take us soldiers in my eyes, it's really hateful!"

These generals expressed their stance one after another, and they all showed indignation in order to show their correct stand. The black-faced general just sneered when he saw it: "You guys are very upright, but don't you think there is something strange about this?" ”

"Huh? What does the general mean by this? The generals asked with puzzled expressions on their faces.

"There are very few people in the world who dare to assassinate Qincha, and it is even rarer in my Shanxi. This is a great sin to be exterminated by the Nine Clans, what kind of hatred do you think would make an assassin do such a thing? The black-faced general asked slowly.

This is not something that the coarse generals under the seat can answer, so they can only look at each other one by one, and finally look at their boss with doubts, waiting for him to give an answer.

"Only when he is greatly threatened, and if he can't put the Qin Cha to death, he will perish, can he be so bold and do the assassination of the Qin Cha." The black-faced general snorted, his gaze swept over the faces of the generals in front of him: "And you are obviously very qualified." Tell me, which 'heroic' assassin is this time? ”

The generals were stunned for a moment, and then they came back to their senses, and it turned out that their superiors suspected that the assassination was instigated by one or more of them, so this is the move to gather everyone today. Suddenly, everyone's faces became several times more nervous than just now, and someone even shouted out to the sky: "General, you can't listen to some people's slander and doubt our brothers." Although we people will make mistakes, even if we are given the courage to do such a thing, we will not dare to do such a thing as assassination. "Joke, if this matter is assigned to someone, not only him and his family, but also other comrades will have to end it together.

Seeing that everyone under his command had similar expressions, full of wronged looks, the black-faced general's expression was relieved. He knew these subordinates too well that if they did, they wouldn't have been able to hide it from him. Now it seems that this should not have been the order of them, which is good news.

Although he had already believed their reply a little, he still asked, "You really haven't done it?" Including the forces that have some interests with you, are they also average? ”

"General, we are no longer sensible, and we will not do such a self-digging thing. Although the arrival of Lord Qincha may be a little harmful to us, the crime of assassinating Qincha is too great in comparison, and we are not so confused that we can't tell which is more important. ”

"It's the general, although we are military generals and have no knowledge, but we dare not do this kind of rebellion, please let the general know and return us to a clean house."

For a while, the whole festival hall changed from the cold just now, and became extremely noisy, and all the generals defended themselves, saying that they had nothing to do with the assassination, as if anyone who did not say this would be convicted of the suspect.

Such a scene made the black-faced general's mind swell for a while, and it took a long time before he shouted: "Enough, shut your beaks for me!" ”

His prestige was still great, and when the generals saw that he was angry, they immediately didn't dare to say anything more, and they all stopped talking, but their faces were still full of aggrieved expressions.

After pondering for a while, he exhaled and said, "Actually, I also believe that you will not do such a thing. But some people don't see it that way, after all, the Chin Cha is coming for us, and he has been assassinated again, and this crime is like the yellow mud that fell into the crotch of his pants, and it is difficult for us to tell clearly. ”

"That'...... General, what should we do? When everyone thought about it, it was really like this, the yellow mud fell into the crotch of his pants, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was not but, and even if he was wronged, he was afraid that it would be inseparable from the assassination in the eyes of others. This made them all look dark and nervous.

"Afraid of what? As long as you haven't done it, there's nothing to fear! The black-faced general sank his face and shouted: "There is no one in our Datong garrison, as long as we don't recognize it, they can only talk about it, and they can't do anything to us." ”

"The general is wise!" The generals felt a little relieved and flattered one after another.

"So what we have to do now is to stabilize our minds and don't let others take advantage of them. Also, the hands and tails that you were told to clean up before have been cleaned up, so don't be sent by the Qin to find out any evidence. In that case, I just want to make sure you don't make it. ”

"Yes! Humble duty understands! ”

After the generals retreated with gratitude and apprehension, the black-faced general sighed and leaned back on the back of the chair with some difficulty. Don't look at what he said just now, he seems to be not afraid of anything, in fact, the pressure in his heart is no less than that of the people below. If one of those people is really bold enough to send someone to assassinate Lord Chincha, then he, the boss, will inevitably be implicated.

But now it seems that these people really didn't do it, so he is a little more relieved.

"Mr. Guo looks tired? Those generals didn't really do such a bold thing, did they? A slightly teasing voice suddenly sounded, waking up the black-faced general who was closing his eyes and staring.

Although this behavior was a bit rude, the black-faced general who was majestic in front of the generals just now did not see the slightest annoyance at this time, but stood up and hugged his fist at the middle-aged man who strolled in and said, "Brother Lao Li, you are worried, those rabbit cubs don't have the guts." ”

"That's good. To be honest, not only you and me, but also my father and his old man, are also very concerned about this matter, and they have urged me to ask several times. As he spoke, the middle-aged man had come to the black-faced general, a man in his forties, with slender eyebrows and eyes, and an elegant and handsome appearance.

"Did the old lady pay attention to this matter too?" Guo Zongbing's expression suddenly froze, and he asked with some awe.

"yes. Although the old man has not been in charge of things much recently, he always has to ask about such a big incident, after all, it affects the overall situation of my Datong. The middle-aged man said as he picked a chair and sat down.

"But it's really strange to say this, someone is so bold as to dare to assassinate Qincha, I really want to see who did this." Guo Zongbing said hatefully.

"Well, in my opinion, there should be two possibilities. One of them is the behavior of someone in our Datong Town who is afraid that the Qin mission will find out his own problem when he arrives, and this range is really not small, such as you and me, and other powerful people may do it. As for the second, it is our opponent, who wants to provoke the Qincha with this, and then throw the black pot on our heads, and use the Qincha's knife to kill us. Neither of these possibilities is small. ”

"What Brother Li said is very reasonable, in the eyes of the last general, the second possibility is more likely. I don't think anyone in our town would be so bold and confused......"

"Don't talk too much, if the truth of the matter is not unraveled, anyone can possibly do it."

I'm afraid that Song Xueqiao, as the initiator, would never have thought that his decision would cause so many people's speculation and a series of chain reactions.

Just as the two wanted to further analyze the assassination incident, a personal soldier suddenly walked outside the hall and reported: "General, the governor asked you to take someone outside the city to welcome Qin's mission. ”

"Huh? They weren't slow to come...... "The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and a hint of an unpredictable smile appeared on his face.
