Chapter 10 Guarding Affairs

When Yang Chengzu came out of the room, he saw that the upstairs had become a pot of porridge, and after a fierce struggle between the three classes of officials, the whole group finally rushed upstairs. Except for two who were slightly weaker and were squeezed downstairs and broke their legs, the others were nothing. And the clerks of the sixth room also appeared upstairs like divine soldiers descending from heaven, surrounding their respective superiors and greeting each other. Those brocade guards and military remnants were squeezed out, and they couldn't even enter the circle.

When Song Liansheng saw him come out, he hurriedly went over and asked, "Eldest nephew, how are you?" You weren't hurt by the danger you just killed, right? ”

Yang Chengzu's mind was on tearing and killing, and he really didn't have time to pay attention to whether he was injured, so he checked his body and found that his body had been slashed a few times, but fortunately, he was slashed on the armor and did not hurt himself. smiled: "Fortunately, their knife is too bad, and they can't cut this armor, at most it hurts a little and can't hurt me." How about our people, are there many casualties? ”

What he was most worried about was that the casualties were too great, and if the casualties were too heavy, the battle would be a loss. All he paid was his own money, and the casualties and so on had to be compensated for the decoction and burn the silver. If you kill someone, you must also give a bonus according to the head, if there are too many dead and injured people, you will not be able to live this life. Besides, those are the families of military remnants, if they block the door and scold, their reputation will not be easy to manage.

Song Liansheng said: "Don't worry, there are no casualties among our people." These boys are all used to playing wild frames, and they are all slippery. It's a lime bag again, and it's a black hand, and he knows how to advance and retreat, and he is not damaged. is the head of the Yamen's iron and British railway, I don't think it will be done. ”

Tie Zhongying was born in a Shaolin layman, learned art in Shaolin Mountain, followed the Shaolin master to learn martial arts, known as the first gun in Huaxian County, and won many heroes in his hands. He has real skills, and in several fights with Jinyiwei, Jinyi also has to admit that no one is his opponent. Yang Chengzu didn't expect that he would capsize on this occasion. Song Liansheng said: "Who is to blame for this?" This is a game of life, not a competition, he is a good man, but unfortunately he has not passed through the battlefield. Isn't it looking for death if you play so hard according to the competition?"

In the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty at this time, guns and sticks were originally a family. In daily brawls, everyone tries to use sticks instead of guns, and when it comes to desperate efforts, they install a gun head so that there is no big difference in the law, in order to avoid casualties as much as possible.

Happiness and revenge, talking and laughing and killing, that is the story in the book, Daming is a place with a king's law. In the Wanli period of later generations, Cheng Zongyou, a master of martial arts in the southern school, competed in martial arts to kill people, and still had to abscond to Saiwai for more than ten years and did not dare to go home. Therefore, when everyone competes in martial arts, they will try to avoid killing and injury, and those who can use sticks will never use guns. Tie Zhongying is an official at the entrance of the yamen, and he is also an old man, but unfortunately he has not gone through a death match, and he actually forgot to change a gun on such occasions today.

These bandits are not comparable to those scoundrels who fight in the streets, they are all fierce, and they really dare to kill. The water and fire stick cannot be fatal when hit on the body, but the iron knife slashed on the body will kill people. Tie Zhongying is not Yang Chengzu, and he has no armor on his body, but when he fought, he relied on his stick to rush too far forward, and knocked over one with a stick, but the other party gave him a knife and disemboweled.

If the rescue is done properly, there may still be a glimmer of life, but at this time, they are all rushing to save the eldest master, who cares about the iron team, and when they think of him, they have to find Lu to sweep the corpse and send it home. Zhang Jiayin had already squeezed out of the crowd at this time, came to Yang Chengzu in three or two steps, and patted Yang Chengzu lightly on the shoulder, "Yang Baizai, hard work." This time to catch the traitor, Baizai should be the first merit, and the official will go back to the yamen to ask for a reward. In addition, all the brocade clothes who came to suppress the bandits today will be allocated by the county government and will be rewarded separately! ”

He instructed behind him again: "Come on, put red on Yang Baizai, and ask a group of drummers to send him home, which is regarded as an official, a little thank you to Yang Baizai." Tonight, the official will also set up a banquet here to entertain my life-saving father. ”

Generally speaking, there is no need for civil officials to take the initiative to have intimate contacts with military generals. Institutions like Jinyi are even more thorns in the eyes of civil officials, thorns in the flesh, and they can't get rid of them quickly, and civil officials are unwilling to be close to them. Zhang Jiayin is a two-list jinshi, how can he put a brocade official in his eyes on weekdays?

But this time the situation is different, he is a civil official, and the most important thing is not performance, but reputation. Although it is said that today's atmosphere is getting wider, drinking alcohol is no longer a sin, but an elegant thing, like the famous Sanyang, flirting with a Ji girl is also known as a good story. But being tied up in the courtyard by bandits for a night, this is not good. Even if he is not really impeached and removed from office, his reputation in Shilin will inevitably be greatly affected.

If Jin Yiwei could cooperate with him in the relevant report, and say that this capture was a secret arrest of the White Lotus Sect, he would be somewhat better-looking. Although not everyone necessarily believes Jinyiwei's statement, but with the endorsement of this statement, he has an extra room to turn.

Now that he has this information, he has to properly curry favor with Yang Chengzu, and besides, this life-saving grace is real, after all, he Zhang Jiayin has not performed his duties for a long time, and his conscience still exists, so he can pull his face down. There was a gust of wind in the government to run out, first grabbed a red silk, and then went to overturn a few drummers, left and right is a slap to pay the deposit, wooden sticks to pay the account, this drape and drum do not waste the county treasury, for the court to save a lot of expenses.

Someone went to find a foot again, helped Yang Chengzu up, and sent him to Yang's house, but as for the dead Tie Zhongying and a few injured, no one cared.

When they arrived outside the Yang family, the Liu family had already waited in the door in fear, for fear that this cheap son would make a mistake. When he heard the movement outside, he hurriedly opened a crack in the door and looked out, and saw Yang Chengzu sitting on a horse and arching his hands to the neighbors, and many drummers were playing musical instruments with sad faces.

When they entered the courtyard, the drummers broke up with their sticks, and the officials gave each a hundred or ten dollars, and they dispersed. Those brocade clothes were stopped by Yang Chengzu

"It's rare for uncles to come so together, and I happen to have something to do today, so I want to talk about it with a few uncles. Today, the county has promised a reward, and I think this silver is the matter of the past few days. But as I said before, whether he gives a reward or not, I will give a reward. Elder Wang, from my father, I have to call you grandpa, please take out the silver, don't talk about beheading, the left and right are according to the people killed, let's divide the money, I don't want my own share. ”

"Another thing, after I was loyal to the country, all the uncles came to pity me for my filial piety, and secondly to pity my orphans and widows. This is the uncle's care for me in front of my father, and the little nephew remembers it in his heart. But the uncle is so loving, but the little nephew can't accept it and enjoy this blessing with peace of mind, so he can't live with the elders. Therefore, I think that in a few days I will be on duty and take up the errand that should be shouldered, and I hope that your uncles can help me a lot, and my little nephew will thank you in advance. ”

He bowed, sang a fat song to everyone, got up and said, "If there is anything wrong with the little nephew in the future, you just have to say." It's just that if there is something wrong, for everyone's sake, don't shirk it, don't make the little nephew embarrassed. ”
