Three days later, Cheng Liang was struck by lightning again, and news came from Dengzhou that Laizhou Wei commanded Tongzhi Yuan Ting to sue him for greedy ink and food, swallowing acres of military households, and wantonly killing military households. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

If it's just a lawsuit, Cheng Liang doesn't care anymore, there is no real evidence, but it just makes his reputation worse.

However, the two staff members who disappeared in Cheng Liang's mansion were the witnesses who accused him of being greedy for ink, and one of them provided Cheng Liang from thousands of households to command Tongzhi for eight years, until Ren Wei commanded all the ink books for several months.

From which money, food, and armor were intercepted, and even fake mules and horses were set to consume, and there were hidden and captured after killing bandits, and the greedy military salary was even more outrageous, and the soldiers under his command could only receive less than forty percent of the salary.

There is also the fact that Cheng Liang plundered the acres of land of the military households as his own, and there were various methods, some of them were forcibly grabbed, some took advantage of his illness to kill him, and some took advantage of the famine to buy them at a low price.

These are more detailed, even specific to who the original owners of some acres were, how much money was spent or not spent at all, and the names of which military households are now used to register and conceal them, and so on.

Cheng Liang's subordinates used money to find out from the officials of the governor's yamen, and Lord Chen immediately slapped the table, scolded the well-dressed beasts, and said that he would immediately send someone to verify it, and would suspend him from his post pending investigation.

Cheng Liang regretted immensely at this time that he had provoked Zhao Lie, Zhao Lie did not let him lose his official position according to the methods of officialdom from the beginning, but wanted his Cheng family to be wiped out.

Cheng Liang immediately recruited his subordinates to arrange the aftermath, since the resignation of the official has been decided, then some things must be arranged as soon as possible.

At this time, even among his descendants, there was a family leader who said goodbye without saying goodbye, which made Cheng Liang feel that the world was hot and cold, and the people were not ancient.

After a busy day, Cheng Cheng fell asleep at the beginning of the evening, and he slept very peacefully. There's nothing to worry about, it's just a big deal, he believes that his arrangement can ensure that he has a safe future, but it's a pity that Lord Cheng thinks too well.

Cheng Liang, who slept very heavily at night, was woken up by two slaps.

Cheng Liang opened his eyes with blood foaming, and he saw that it was a large group of strangers dressed in short black clothes with weapons in their hands.

"Who are you?" Cheng Liangqiang shouted calmly.

"Hehe, Master Cheng is really funny. You don't know who you offended, so you actually asked me who I was waiting for, haha, Master Cheng, how did you climb to the top of the third grade. A masked man laughed.

It's just that his laughter was so horrible in the flickering candlelight, under the malicious gaze of a group of strangers.

"You, you are Zhao Lie's subordinates." Cheng Liang said hurriedly, "Now that Lord Chen is about to suspend Ben from his post pending investigation, what else do you Lord Zhao do?" ”

"Hmph, what's the matter, weren't you very arrogant when you confronted Lord Zhao in front of the Denglai Du Magistrate's Office that day. Let Lord Zhao not come to the stage in front of several guard commanders, what about your majesty that day. The man patted him lightly on the face and scolded.

"I was dizzy that day, I did something stupid, and I hope that Lord Zhao will let go of the small one a lot." Cheng Liang was soaked in cold sweat, and he knelt down to ask this person for mercy.

"Well, it's not impossible if it's just these Lord Zhao who let you go, Lord Zhao has countless living people, and he has always been unwilling to be an enemy of others. But you actually went to Governor Chen and Zhang Zhenshou to complain, and let the two adults clash with my Lord Zhao. That's how you die. The man gritted his teeth.

"Murder is not a nod to the ground, and all the responsibility is borne by Cheng Liang alone. How about putting the process of a certain home. It has reached this point, Cheng Liang can only beg to let his wife go.

"Hehe, do you think I went to great lengths to find those drunkards, old and sick ghosts to commit suicide, incite the soldiers to make trouble, and let your staff take the lead. And then the leader of the guards who bribed you to enter the mansion for your life, haha," said the man disdainfully,

"Tell you, it doesn't take so much trouble to get your life alive. It's easy to get rid of you, but how to warn the generals at both ends of Denglai is the reason for such effort. ”

"What does this have to do with my little family." Cheng Liang shouted regardless of it.

"Well, killing them can scare some people's guts, think about your fate before you do it, see how they are better than you, if you are still like this, they will be even more miserable." This man is grim.

"If that's the case, you can do it." Cheng Liang looked like crazy.

"How can this be done, you, Lord Cheng Liang, still have to write a suicide note, telling Denglai's father that you have self-immolated many people because of what you have done, many soldiers have died, and nearly 100 soldiers have been seriously injured. The visitor laughed.

"Hahaha, it turns out that these people have these benefits of self-immolation, the Laizhou guards are in chaos, which makes me panic, and can also force me to commit suicide," Cheng Liangxiao's tears flowed out, "But who do you think you are, you can force me to write a suicide note and cut myself." ”

"You have a wife, a concubine and three children in your family, but only one son, born to a concubine, you often sigh that Ding's mouth is thin," the visitor didn't seem to see his madness, but said calmly.

Cheng Liang suddenly trembled and couldn't stop saying anything, he had a strong premonition that it was extremely bad, too bad.

"Your lady didn't know that you had an outer room outside, but she was very competitive, and gave birth to two sons for you in one go," the visitor bent down and stared at Cheng Liang who was sitting on the ground, "Tsk, two sons, haha, this can be passed on for you." ”

"You, you, how are you doing?" Cheng Liang asked tremblingly.

"Or write a suicide note to cut yourself, and leave you roots, if you don't do what I say, hehe, I don't know how you will explain to your ancestors when you go underground to see them." The people who came let out devilish laughter.

"You can't, you're deceiving people too much, you're not human... For a while, Cheng Liang cried bitterly, his private placement was now controlled by these people, and he was about to be cut off, he was on the verge of collapse and began to talk nonsense.

"I don't know if the soldiers and family members you forced to die cursed you the same when they died, and whether their children who didn't grow up were watching your fate from the sidelines." Someone came and pointed around.

Cheng Liang was terrified, there were more than ten military households that had died in his hands over the years, and some of them had lost their land and their families committed suicide and died of cold and starvation.

"Hugh is wordy, if you still want your two sons to live, then write a suicide note." People are impatient.

"I, how can I believe you, just write it down, you go back and kill them, who will I go to." Cheng Liang hesitated.

"Hmph, a certain family is a talker, but it is a three- or four-year-old child, and a certain family has not taken it to heart, of course, you Cheng Liang can not write, but... The person who came said coldly.

Cheng Liang had no choice but to start writing a suicide note, he wrote a suicide note of only a few hundred words for more than half an hour, crying bitterly while writing, he regretted it very much, he knew today, why mess with the demon Zhao Lie, now it's too late to say anything.

When he wrote the last word, the person who came couldn't wait to snatch the suicide note, he took a good look at it, then nodded and made a gesture.

The man in black immediately rushed up and tied Cheng Liang tightly, and then someone began to look inside and sprinkle fire oil.

Cheng Liang's eyes were about to pop out, this was to burn him alive, he let out a howl that was not like a human voice, and he was immediately gagged, he could only whine and shout.

After the people who came saw that all the subordinates had placed the Cheng family properly, he first came to the gate of the Cheng family and waited, the smell of fire oil inside became stronger and stronger, and all the subordinates came outside.

"Yan Tou, it's all disposed of inside." One came to him to give his report.

"Well, Liuzi, you wait to evacuate separately, remember not to let anyone notice." Lao Yan whispered.

"Well," the sixth son looked at Lao Yan and said hesitantly, "Yantou, the outer room of the Cheng family。。。。。 ”

"Hehe, Liuzi, why is your heart soft-hearted, how did Lord Du explain, get rid of all the people who are not good for Lord Zhao, let me ask you, will these boys hate Lord Zhao when they grow up." Lao Yan asked.

"Then there must be, the revenge of killing my father." Liuzi nodded.

"If they have the chance, will they retaliate against the adults." Lao Yan then asked.

"Of course..." Of course, there is a chance to retaliate, but there is almost no chance, Liuzi muttered in his heart, but this may really be there.

"Well, then you're done." Lao Yan decided.

"Yes." The six sons were ordered to go away separately with the large crowd.

After the six sons and they had gone for tea, Lao Yan threw the velvet into the courtyard, and when a firelight rose, a huge fireball gradually rose to illuminate the streets and alleys that were deserted.

A few days later, the news of Cheng Liang's self-immolation reached Denglai, which made Denglai Wenwu very frightened for a while.

Chen Yingyuan was speechless for a long time after hearing the news, he sighed after thinking about it, there is no one to control it.

"Lu Ping, this is another self-immolation after Yang Jingtang's family self-immolated," Zhang Guoyuan sneered, "This Zhao Lie really thinks that everyone else is a fool." ”

"My lord, what Zhao Lie did was to shock the generals of those guards, and those who obey me will prosper and those who oppose me will die." Lu Ping said solemnly.

"Zhao Lie is already a big tail." Zhang Guoyuan knew that it would be impossible for the imperial court to organize an army of more than 100,000 and 200,000 to attack Denglai, so Zhao Lie could be said to be uncontrollable in Denglai.

"Knowing yourself and knowing that the other side has a chance of winning." Lu Ping said word by word, "When your subordinates investigate carefully, they will definitely find Zhao Lie's weakness, only in this way can they be fatal with one blow, as for the crusade of the army,"

Lu Ping laughed miserably, "Now that the Ming Dynasty is in such a predicament, how to crusade, this is absolutely impossible." ”

"This matter can only be done by you secretly, I am a tablet, I think Zhao Lie will definitely pay attention to my every move, how to live up to the emperor's trust, can only rely on Lord Lu." Zhang Guoyuan solemnly bowed.

"Don't worry, my lord, if a certain family receives the grace of the king, he will do his best to die." Lu Ping bowed back. (To be continued.) )
