Chapter 259: Martial Arts Conference (7)
(PS: Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, mosquitoes here wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!) Today's two chapters are presented in advance, and there is also a party for mosquitoes later, so I can't add more. We hope you will understand! )
As a Jianghu person, although he is not used to seeing official errands, he also knows that official errands are not easy to mess with. Most of the people who dare to kill officials are some green forest heroes, and to be precise, they are a group of outlaws. Such a person would not dare to kill a high-ranking court official easily.
The six craftsmen made envoys, and the official position is not too big. But for ordinary people, this is an official who is much older than the county master. It is impossible to kill such an official without being investigated and held accountable by the imperial court.
Involved in such a major event as killing the imperial court officials, even if the Jianghu people present had a good impression of Murong Fu, they did not dare to be easily involved. Once this kind of crime is confirmed, the Gusu Murong family will become a key offender.
To put it bluntly, this is slightly worse than the crime of rebellion. But if you really want the court to make a move, the Murong family can only live incognito in the Great Song Dynasty. If you think about such a scenery again, I'm afraid it's not much likely.
is still the same sentence, since ancient times, there are few people who send charcoal in the snow, and there are many people who fall into the well. Looking at the accusations made by the two officials, who seemed to be full of confidence, many people in the rivers and lakes felt that this time Murong Fu was afraid that he would cause great trouble.
looked at Murong Fu very straightforwardly, and asked the two superiors to come up with evidence. Zhao Xiaoxi knows very well that even if there are witnesses and physical evidence, Murong Fu can also shirk it in the name of framing. In a word, the official word has two mouths, it depends on how the government decides.
Soon, the two officials said: "Since the head of the Murong family feels that the imperial court has wronged you." Then today, in front of many martial arts people, see if my brothers and I have framed you. Here are a few letters that go back and forth, and I would like to ask the three judges today to examine them.
In addition to these letters between your Murong family and Lord Sun, there were also two witnesses at the scene of the murder that day. On the day of the shipwreck, they resolutely escaped and saved a life. You probably didn't expect that! ”
After saying these words, the two officials handed these letters to the three judges on the rostrum. Secondly, two more witnesses wearing martial arts costumes were found from the martial arts people who watched the ceremony.
From the official certificates presented by these two people, it can be clearly indicated. The two of them are the officials of the Qingzhou Craftsman Mansion. This point has also been recognized by many Jianghu people. After all, this proves to be very credible.
As for the correspondence submitted to the three judges, Cho Hyo-seok just glanced at it. In fact, he knew very well that this move could only suppress the prestige of the Murong family in the rivers and lakes. In addition, it paves the way for the follow-up comprehensive clearance.
The other two judges, Master Yiqing and Abbot Xuanci, they felt the letter above. The things told are more of correspondence about the purchase of imperial court standard weapons. A charlatan. What do you do with buying this kind of weapon of the imperial court?
Xuan Ci had already learned the background of the Murong family from Zhao Xiaoxi, and sighed that the Murong family really had a big plan, but he didn't say much. Instead, he watched quietly, and today's master judge Yiqing master.
Xuan Ci believed that with the wisdom of Master Yiqing, it was not difficult to see what these letters meant. If this crime is confirmed, it will be ironclad evidence of rebellion. This is a great sin to be punished by the Nine Clans!
Just when everyone was looking forward to Master Yiqing's judgment, the two officials said, "Today we are under orders. Serving as the inspector of the martial arts conference is a dispensable role. But because of this matter, he was sent by Shangfeng to question the head of the Murong family.
Over the years, the imperial court has not suppressed you too much. And all the people of the rivers and lakes, their contributions to the imperial court. The imperial court is also looking at it. At this time of turmoil, both the people of the rivers and lakes and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court are also the people.
As long as you still consider yourself a member of the Great Song Dynasty, you should share your worries for the monarch and contribute your own strength to the stability of the Great Song Dynasty. But this matter is too important. The killing of a six-grade craftsman can only be said to have alarmed a house.
But the purchase of weapons for 300,000 taels of silver was still purchased from the craftsmen who oversaw the imperial court and built weapons. I believe that you are all smart people and should understand what this means.
What sect and faction, that family and that clan, need to buy such a large number of standard ordnance, can arm the nursing home and subordinates? What's the point of buying these ordnance? Solid enough, the matters involved were too important, and the imperial court had to investigate them strictly. ”
Watching the two officials use this kind of insinuation to stir the nerves of the martial arts people present. Murong Fu knew very well that there must be someone behind this matter. But what frightened him even more was that the other party was able to intervene in the court.
On the same day, this Lord Sun swallowed the 300,000 taels of silver he delivered, which made Murong Fu extremely hateful. didn't care about the other party, what kind of six-grade craftsman made it, and killed it directly.
Together with the guards brought by Lord Sun that day, they were all killed by Murong Fu. Unexpectedly, there were still fish that slipped through the net that day. These two Qingzhou craftsmen told the events of the day in detail.
I feel that today's martial arts conference, especially the appearance of the two court officials, seems to be intentionally constructing a conspiracy to calm the Murong family. Murong Fu knew very well that if this matter was not handled well, the Murong family was in danger.
Thinking of this, Murong Fu quickly stepped forward and said: "The two of you have settled in Jiangnan since the Murong family has settled in Jiangnan and passed it on to Xiaosheng for several generations. Shangfeng has ever heard people say, what evil deeds does my Murong family have in Jiangnan?
Let's not talk about it, these 300,000 taels of silver, although my Murong family has a small amount of money, but I can't take out so many silver taels. For these 300,000 silver, how many weapons are bought? My Murong family wants so many weapons, what's the use?
The confessions of these two officials, to be honest, it is difficult for my Murong family to admit it. This matter is related to the reputation of my Murong family, and the testimony of two unknown people and a few letters alone rely on my Murong family for this matter. How can you convince the people of the world? ”
His explanation was quickly recognized by many people in the rivers and lakes. Looking at these grass-like people in the rivers and lakes, they began to fight for Murong Fu. Zhao Xiaoxi also felt that Murong Fu was indeed worthy of being an expert in playing conspiracy.
The two officials seemed to have been mentally prepared for Murong Fu's sophistry, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this matter has already alarmed the imperial court, and my brothers are just representing the imperial court and asking you martial arts people to report this matter."
In addition, the imperial court took into account the prestige of the Murong family in Jiangnan, so it deliberately announced this matter at the martial arts conference. The reason for this is that the imperial court does not kill innocent people indiscriminately. If the head of the Murong family feels wronged, he needs to go to Qingzhou to cooperate with the imperial court investigation.
There is one more thing, I believe that my brothers and sisters do not need to say more. The people of the rivers and lakes raised by the head of the Murong family, if they want to avoid suspicion, it is better to dissolve as soon as possible. Presumably, these two should be Mr. Bao Wei, the owner of the Murong family's Jinfeng Village.
So this should be the owner of Xuanshuang Village, I don't know why the other two Qingyun Village owners Deng Baichuan and Chixia Village owner Gongsun Qian didn't come? went to Qingzhou, hoping that the head of the Murong family could take the four of them together.
If this matter was really not done by the head of the Murong family, I believe that the imperial court would not be wronged. If the head of the Murong family does not go, the imperial court will issue a document on sea fishing to carry out a comprehensive arrest and encirclement of the Murong family's property and the people involved. ”
As soon as these words came out, the Jianghu people who attended the martial arts conference quickly heard a different flavor from these words. Previously, Murong Fu emphasized that it was useless to buy so many weapons. But the four major villages of the Murong family, and the family Ding Wuwei who raised them are also countless.
If the purchased weapons are armed to the Jiading Wuwei in the four major villages. That is an army that can stand up to the imperial army. Such fears are not unreasonable.
Murong Fu listened to the words of the two officials, and immediately understood that the imperial court's understanding of the Murong family was only beyond his imagination. If you want to say what people who intend to prepare for rebellion are most afraid of, they are naturally targeted by the imperial court.
Just when Murong Fu hesitated, Master Yiqing thought of Zhao Xiaoxi's true identity, and quickly understood that these two officials were afraid that Zhao Xiaoxi had deliberately instructed them. And once the king of the county, there is no reason to charge a master of the rivers and lakes with such a big crime.
Then this means that the seemingly gentle Murong Fu in front of him is afraid that he really has the intention of rebellion. Perhaps seeing Master Yiqing's confusion, Zhao Xiaoxi tilted his head and whispered, "Master, where does the surname Murong come from?" ’
As soon as he said this, Master Yiqing's eyes immediately lit up, and he finally understood why Zhao Xiaoxi was eyeing the Murong family. If the Murong family really has something to do with the Great Yan Kingdom, which has been eliminated from history, then it is easy to understand that the purchase of weapons intended to rebel.
Thinking of this, Master Yiqing immediately got up and said, "Murong family master, Lao Na has a matter and asks Murong family master to solve his doubts." As the head of the Murong family said before, your Murong family was not a native of Jiangnan, but the ancestors of Murong moved here.
Then Lao Na wants to know, does the head of the Murong family know which branch and which line your ancestor is. If the head of the Murong family didn't want to say it, Lao Na wouldn't ask more. In short, the matter is left to the imperial court. ”
If the previous two official testimonies put Murong Fu in a predicament, he was able to break free with his whole body. So this question of Master Yiqing is actually a fatal blow. This means that the biggest secret of the Murong family will be exposed.
The people in the rivers and lakes who heard this didn't understand how to ask who the ancestors of the people were when investigating a case. Not long after, some Jianghu people who knew about the old affairs of the previous dynasty immediately said with a shocked face: "The great Yan who destroyed the country in the previous dynasty seems to be the surname Murong!" ”
Dayan, for this dynasty that existed before the Great Song Dynasty, many people are also clear. Especially those Jianghu people from Qingzhou, they immediately understood that the former land of Qingzhou was the land of Longxing in Dayan.
Although Great Yan has been destroyed for hundreds of years, the monarch of the Great Yan Kingdom has always been surnamed Murong. Of course, this does not mean that in other places in the Great Song Dynasty, there is no surname Murong.
can connect all the things that happened today, and it is difficult not to think that the Murong family has great plans. If you want to revive Dayan, this matter of killing officials and buying weapons, then there is a reason! (To be continued......)
