Chapter Seventy-Three: Success or Failure (Part II)
Sitting on the chair, Lu Xiufu just quietly looked at the steaming tea on the table, as if he had a thousand thoughts in his heart.
The more he was like this, the more nervous the old man of the Zhang family who was sitting on the side. In fact, this Tongshan County is more than ten miles away, who doesn't know that the Li family and the little lady of the Zhang family are in love with each other, and who doesn't know that the old man of the Zhang family indifferently broke up this pair of hard-working mandarin ducks.
In fact, the old man of the Zhang family also has unspeakable hardships, although the little lady of the Zhang family is his daughter, but it is not from the main room, but the old man of the Zhang family was born by the young concubine, the little concubine died because of dystocia, the little lady of the Zhang family is helpless, not to mention that the eldest lady of the Zhang family is jealous, although the little concubine did not dare to do anything when she was favored, but now for the daughter she left, she did not hesitate to exclude a few times, and again and again the old man of the Zhang family said that this daughter was born with the disaster of blood and light, is an ominous person, and it is better to find a powerful family to marry, which can not only climb the high branches, but also remove the bad luck in the family.
When the woman got married, the old man of the Zhang family didn't think there was anything wrong with climbing a high branch, but at this time, the eldest man of the Li family crashed into the net, and the old man of the Zhang family naturally looked down on the Li family, which had fallen into ruin, so he sternly refused.
Although the Li family was disheartened, he didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary, but who knew that the little lady of the Zhang family was quite beautiful, and somehow it reached Jia Yufeng's ears, and immediately sent his cronies to secretly propose marriage.
Although the old man of the Zhang family married off this daughter, it did not mean that he wanted to marry a person like Jia Yufeng who was scolded by the people behind his back, and he was also a concubine when he married, which did not help much to improve the status of the Zhang family, who was already a prominent family in Tongshan County, so the old man of the Zhang family refused the same as last time.
But Jia Yufeng is such a good person, so he simply didn't do anything, bought off the Zhang family, directly robbed the people, and finally abandoned the corpse in the wilderness, without putting the Zhang family's face in his eyes at all, and finally insisted that it was the revenge of the Li family.
The old man of the Zhang family is also a person who has been crawling in the world for so many years, how can he not see through such a loophole lie, with the financial resources of the Li family, if nothing else, it is impossible to buy off his own servants, let alone snatch people out with all the difficulty.
But this can't help but disagree with the old man of the Zhang family, although the Zhang family also has people who are officials outside, but it is not big enough to bring down Jia Yuqing and even Jia Yufeng, who is standing behind him, so in order to protect the Zhang family, the old man of the Zhang family has no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it, although he knows that he knows how many people are scolding him behind him, but it can only be like this, it is better than the whole family being framed in an unknown way, isn't it?
What's more, the scapegoat is the Li family who doesn't like the old man of the Zhang family very much, and it's good to let the Li family learn some lessons.
But who knew that things were going to turn around, Xing ** Zhijun Ye Yingwu came forward to uphold justice, and suddenly crushed Jia Yufeng's arrogance to death, and the state of revenge was handed to the county government like snowflakes, and the soldiers of the Tianwu Army were guarding in the backyard, which was equivalent to putting Jia Yufeng under house arrest.
The old man of the Zhang family didn't expect Jia Yufeng to be almost on the verge of being knocked down like this, and his heart suddenly tightened, although he didn't really help the abuse, but at least he made perjury in the case of the Li family's eldest man, although he didn't die, it doesn't mean that the Li family won't hold a grudge.
And this is a recent case, Ye Yingwu and Lu Xiufu will start from here if they want to come, so the old man of the Zhang family has been worried after receiving the news, and sure enough, not long after, Xing** sentenced Lu Xiufu to visit the door with a soldier.
But what puzzled the old man of the Zhang family was that after the two exchanged a few words, Lu Xiufu either tasted the tea carefully or looked at the teacup, as if he was not interested in asking the guilt. But this is what worries the old man of the Zhang family the most, Lu Xiufu put on this gesture, as if to tell him that they already know everything, if the old man of the Zhang family confesses honestly, I am afraid that he can also consider whether to reduce the punishment a little.
"Bang, bang!" Lu Xiufu's knuckles tapped lightly on the tabletop, although the sound was very small, but the old man of the Zhang family heard it like a thunderclap in his heart, as if this was the drumming of life. The wind after the rain was very cool, but beads of sweat slowly flowed from the forehead of the old man of the Zhang family.
Jia Yufeng, Jia Yufeng, you are really harmful!
couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and remembering his innocent and tragic daughter, the old man of the Zhang family took a deep breath: "Lord Lu has been sitting here for some time, but I don't know why my lord came?" If you can use the place of the Zhang family, the contemptible people will definitely go all out and go to the soup and fire. β
Lu Xiufu stretched out his hand to hold the teacup, hesitated for a moment, then let go of his hand, and said slowly: "Old man Zhang doesn't need to be so polite, it's just that Old Man Zhang doesn't like to listen to this official very much, if the official lets Old Man Zhang betray this Great Song Dynasty, will Old Man Zhang also go to the soup?!" β
When Lu Xiufu said in the end, he was already full of emotion, and every word smashed on Old Man Zhang's heart, which was really like a thunderbolt.
The cold sweat that was slowly flowing from Old Man Zhang was like rain in an instant, and the blood on his face also dissipated: "Lord LuΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Lord Lu is a loyal and upright minister, how could he do something treasonous to the king and the countryΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Lord Lu said seriously. β
"Bang!" Lu Xiufu slapped the table hard, so frightened that Old Man Zhang almost collapsed: "It's a good word, that official wants to know, what Jia Yufeng asked you to do, and what do you do?!" Isn't it a sin to betray the Great Song Dynasty, the official family, and the conscience of the people who are loyal and good, and to blame the innocent? ! Is Mr. Zhang really confused or fake?! β
Old Man Zhang rolled his eyes, almost fainted, scourge loyalty, blame the innocent, such crimes can be big or small, to put it in a big way, it can really be related to the disloyalty of the team officials, and in this era of dynasties and countries, disloyalty to the officials is treason!
I didn't leave any affection at all, Lu Xiufu, so ruthless!
It took a long time for the old man of the Zhang family to come back to his senses and get up from his chair, both knees trembling. He did not doubt that with the iron-fisted methods that Ye Yingwu and Lu Xiufu killed from the sea of corpses and blood at the foot of Macheng, they would not kill the chickens and monkeys first.
And Zhang's family is a good choice.
Under the swords and guns of the Tianwu Army, the entire Zhang family will inevitably be wiped out.
"The disaster of blood and light, it's really unlucky." The old man of the Zhang family couldn't help but murmur, under Lu Xiufu's cold gaze, he was no longer the head of the family, but an old man with white hair and gray hair who was already trembling in the wind.
Sighing softly, Lu Xiufu's heart softened, and he pressed people with power, he was really not very good at it, and he couldn't bear it when he saw this old man like this: "Old man Zhang, it's not that the official is too pressing, whether this matter violates his conscience, Old Man Zhang is afraid that his heart is like a mirror, and he is clear, so I also ask Old Man Zhang to tell the whole story of the matter, and the official and Lord Ye will definitely not be embarrassedΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Is this negotiating? Lu Xiufu couldn't help muttering to himself, and then smiled bitterly.
The old man of the Zhang family stood up straight with a trembling body: "Lord Lu, is this true?" β
"Really, could it be that Old Man Zhang can't trust this official?" Lu Xiufu looked at Old Man Zhang's weakness, and had mixed feelings in his heart, if he changed places, Lu Xiufu did not think that he could do better than Old Man Zhang, not only today, but also the choice in this case.
On the one hand, it is the life and death of the family, and on the other hand, the survival of the conscience.
It's just that what he doesn't know is that in real history, he did far better than Old Man Zhang.
"Ahem," the old man of the Zhang family coughed lightly twice, and then said with a wry smile, "Lord Lu, listen to the old man slowly." β
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The sky is bright and the sun is pouring.
Ye Yingwu rode his horse slowly on the slightly empty street, and Yang Bao just followed from a distance with a hundred battles behind him, looking at the surrounding crowd with some trepidation, for fear that there would really be some assassins who really came out, so with Ye Yuanjun's three-legged cat's kung fu, I am afraid that there will be more than one luck.
But Ye Yingwu still rode forward like this, ignoring it, and didn't let Yang Bao get close at all.
The people on the street didn't know who recognized it first, this young man who was a little haggard but still upright on horseback was Ye Yingwu, who had been regarded as a life-saving benefactor and the biggest dependence by the people of Tongshan County, and then the whole street was boiling, countless people rushed over, and even some bold children were running around with Ye Yingwu's horse.
On this originally lonely street, the sound of laughter that has not been heard for a long time echoes.
Ye Yingwu got off the horse, a smile appeared on his face, he stretched out his hand and touched the heads of a few children in the general corner, and smiled and saluted the people on both sides of the street one by one.
A fast horse galloped from the direction of the county office, the herald didn't expect Ye Yingwu to be in front, he was shocked for a moment and flew off the horse, and shouted loudly: "Enlighten the envoy, the general judgment has arrived at the county office, please hurry over." β
Ye Yingwu nodded: "Tell him, so-and-so knows." β
Seeing the herald turn back, Ye Yingwu arched his hand again to the people on both sides of the street with a little expectation: "Fellow villagers, please rest assured, the state has national laws, the family has family rules, the kid will never sit idly by and watch someone in the township and cause trouble, please wait for the good news, don't let the kid pass for the time being." β
At this moment, Yang Bao hurriedly walked over and whispered in Ye Yingwu's ear: "My lord, someone from Longxing Mansion is here." β
Ye Yingwu was stunned, he didn't expect Jiang Wanli and Cheap Daddy that they still couldn't help but be afraid of any accidents, but immediately his heart tightened, a little Jia Yufeng was just a hand-to-hand capture, and it was clear how much skill he had The princes in charge of Jiangnan West Road thought about it, but now they sent people very abruptly, indicating that things must have changed.
And the only one who can intervene in it is Jia Yidao.
"I want to see what means Jia seems to have." Ye Yingwu smiled lightly, they are now occupying the commanding heights of morality, even if Jia Nidao oppresses people with power, they have to think about it, but since Jia Nidao has decided to intervene, then this is no longer a game between Ye Yingwu and Jia Yufeng, but a game between Jiang Wanli and Wang Yao, Ye Mengding and others and Jia Yidao's party.
Maybe this is just a political struggle that will not enter the annals of history, but it doesn't mean that it is not important, Jia Yufeng is overthrown, which means that the most elite fist in the hands of Jiang Wanli's party, the Tianwu general, has no worries, so this is a crucial position.
There is an undercurrent surging under Lang Lang, and it is lively now.
Ye Yingwu couldn't help but clench his fists, since Jia Rudao dared to intervene, nothing could make him comfortable.
"Report, the left wing of the Tianwu Army has taken over the granary, and the guards and officials have resisted and are confronting! Wang Jin's commander had already brought more than a dozen armor soldiers over to ask whether to attack. Another herald came on horseback, his voice low but unable to hide the urgency of the period.
"Report, Jia Yufeng, the magistrate of Tongshan County, asks to see your lord, Lu Tong sentences, what should I do!" Before the herald could finish speaking, another herald arrived.
"Report, He Dutou of Tongshan County took the township soldiers to ask to see the adult, one is to ask if there is any arrangement, and the other is to ask the adult to send the deducted military salary!" Another herald, through a hundred battles, he walked straight in front of Ye Yingwu, "General Zhang Gui was afraid that something would happen, so he had already brought someone over, and asked the adults how to do it." β
Ye Yingwu took a breath of cool air gently.
Thinking that Jia Yufeng and his minions had already heard the rumors, so they suddenly concentrated at this time to burst out, and in an instant, even Ye Yingwu had hundreds of elite Tianwu troops in his hands, but they were a little anxious, and they couldn't even judge where the head of He Du and his ilk were going, and they were originally wall grasses swaying in the wind, and now they were carefully testing the attitudes of all parties.
The surrounding people looked curiously at the heralds who came one by one, and there were many discussions, but no one dared to make a loud noise, and the children who ran before and after just now also quietly returned to their parents, quietly looking at the street that suddenly fell silent.
After a moment of silence, Ye Yingwu said coldly: "Come on, tell Wang Jin, in troubled times, the Tianwu Army is the army of the imperial court, and resisting the Tianwu Army is to rebel against the imperial court and the official family, and those who dare to resist will be punished on the spot!" also told Zhang Gui that he quickly sent the general's salary to He Dutou, and asked him to take his subordinates and soldiers to cooperate with the Tianwu Army to guard the gates of Tongshan County, as long as they are not people with local accents, they will all be stopped! Yang Bao, 50 people were selected from the Hundred Battles Capital, and they patrolled back and forth on the vertical and horizontal streets of Tongshan County, and the rest of the people went to the county government with me! β
"Obey!" Several heralds shouted at the same time, turned around and left, their movements clean and neat, not dragging mud and water at all.
Ye Yingwu no longer hesitated, turned over and got on the horse, his eyes were cold: "Yang Bao, flag!" β
"Obey!" Yang Bao asked Jiang Tie to personally lead people around while looking behind him.
Two red battle flags flutter in the wind, with dazzling colors and irresistible power, as if all who come near it will be burned to ashes!
Seeing that a hundred battles were gone, the people around them subconsciously exhaled deeply, as if such a powerful and murderous small cavalry team suddenly erupted just now brought them a sense of oppression that they had never felt before.
And it's not Jia Yufeng's gloomy and cold horror, but a kind of upright steel power.
