Chapter 82 Bad News
When the brigade arrived in Kaifeng, two bad news came one after another, the first news was that the Cao Gang Daxiangtou, Jin Changling, who was involved in the rebellion case, died.
It is said that such a criminal must be strictly guarded, and he must be careful not to commit suicide or be killed, and he can be used as an important witness in the future. In addition, where those banner letters of appointment come from, we must also carefully investigate and find out who is behind the scenes who wants to rebel.
Jinyi Wei Kaifeng Guard is the highest institution in Henan Jinyi, most of the elites of a province are concentrated here, and the masters are like clouds, no matter what, it will not let Jin Changling have an accident. But the result was that Jin Changling had just had the intention of confessing, and he bled to death after the meal. And the brocade who was in charge of delivering the food was also found dead in the room, and the death was the same as Jin Changling.
This is tantamount to a slap in Song Zhaonan's face, he just wanted to handle this case beautifully, so as to give Jiang Bin an explanation, when such a thing happened, where did he put his face. Now he has become an ant on a hot pot, anxious to turn around, and at the governor's place, he has really eaten a few meals, and he can't get off the stage.
Another piece of bad news is that the takeover of the granary in Kaifeng City has also encountered unprecedented resistance. The men and horses who went to receive the granary were stopped by another group of men and horses, and the two confronted each other, and neither could convince the other.
To say that Kaifeng is where Shen Dongkui is stationed, and the one sent to receive the granary is his standard battalion people, and ordinary people who dare to stop it can be broken up with a whip. But the problem is that the origin of this team is not small, it turned out to be a guard sent by the eunuch Yamen of Henan Town, and they have backers behind each other, and no one can help anyone.
Yang Chengzu didn't want to get involved in the case of Jin Changling's poisoning, this kind of thing involved rebellion, and it was estimated that King Ning did it. But he couldn't jump out and say it, but Yang Chengzu had seen through everything, and all this was done by King Ning, wasn't that death?
When Song Zhaonan was in a dilemma, if he went, he just threw the pot down and put himself in charge of solving the case, no matter what the final result was, it would not end well. He is not the protagonist of some time-traveling novels, and he has to find something to do when he has nothing to do, as if he can't live without justice for everything.
If you think about this kind of thing, you know that it must be that as soon as Jin Changling loosens his mouth, he will bite out a lot of big people, and those big masters naturally can't let him speak, so he has no choice but to die. If you find out something, don't you have to die?
In fact, he did find a few accounts from the Jin family, which was Jin Changling's life-saving account, which recorded his dealings with many dignitaries, including Song Zhaonan. If this account book is stabbed into the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it will pick off the hats of a group of people, and the heads of a group of people.
But after he got the account book, he added an envelope to the outside, saying that this thing was sealed and no one had touched it, and then it was directly sent to the Henan Jinyi Thousand Households Office, only saying that the case was serious and he did not dare to ask the master of the thousand households to be the master.
He knew in his heart, Song Zhaonan was not a stupid person, he naturally understood his attitude, if you don't get involved in this matter, you will take care of the aftermath yourself. At the moment, he didn't want to get involved in the poisoning case, but he wanted to go over and have a look at the granary. That's a few thousand stones of grain, if it can't be raised, this will be one less trump card in stabilizing grain prices.
When he rushed over, he saw that outside the warehouse, two groups of men and horses were facing each other from afar, bows and knives unsheathed, and the atmosphere was extremely tense. In front of the granary, a young man wearing a crooked hat shouted: "This granary is stored with the grain bought by my godfather and his old man, I think which of you dares to move?" If any of you dare to touch the food of his old man, we will bring the lawsuit to the front of the emperor, and we will also ask him to raid the house and destroy the door, and even the nine clans, whoever dares to disobey will try it! ”
Yang Chengzu dismounted from a distance and asked Mr. Liu, who came with him, "Liu Huhou, do you recognize who this kid is?" Which godfather is he talking about? ”
Liu was very familiar with the people on the ground, looked at him twice, and said: "He, he was originally a splash in Kaifeng, because he was slippery, and he was nicknamed the fried ghost, named You Tiao." was originally a broken household, and he didn't have the next meal, but after Gong Huaien arrived in Henan, he lived both life and land, and he wanted to scrape the ground and had no helper. This You Tiao took the initiative to come over, worshiped Gong Huaien as his godfather, helped him as a leader, extorted rich people everywhere, and blackmailed the people, which was very happy for Gong Huaien, and actually guaranteed the future of a hundred households in brocade clothes for him, and you have to be on the same level. It's just that you look at him like this, but he looks like a hundred households in brocade? ”
Yang Chengzu said with a smile: "It's not good to say that, I think he is like this, but he looks like a hundred households in brocade clothes." Everyone works wet and dry, but you don't have to be virtuous. Eunuch Gong used him, but he cared that his minions were available, and he had no roots, so he just used it to charge into battle and carry the thunder, if he was not so virtuous, how could he have such an achievement today. Who's next to him? ”
Next to this Youtiao, there is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a short figure, born white and chubby, wearing silk and satin, and he looks like a rich man. Dressed according to his appearance, he looks like an outsider, but looking at standing with You Tiao, it seems that he is also doing dirty work?
"This person is the little steward of the Zhou Palace, named Zang Neng, and he is also a character on the ground. In this granary, I'm afraid there is also a share of Zhou Wang Chitose, this thing is a bit difficult to do. ”
Gong Huaien, the eunuch who guards the town, is on a par with the governor Shen Dongkui, and his role is also the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, plus guarding the place to prevent thieves. The town guard eunuch in Henan also has to add a job function of purchasing tribute, which does not conflict with the work of the governor on weekdays. However, if there is a conflict, even the governor will find it difficult to effectively deal with him, which belongs to the effective restraint of the imperial power on the civilian officials at the local level.
And the king of Zhou, Zhu Mu Mu trial (this is a variant character, left wood and right trial), although he has no authority, belongs to the division of the feud but not the tin soil, the lord but not the people, and the food but not the governance. There is no throne, and there is generally no power to meddle in local affairs.
But no matter what, he is also the blood of the Heavenly Family, a descendant of the Zhu family, and if people don't take power, it's nothing to make a fortune by frying grain. If you don't even allow this thing, then you will inevitably not treat the people of the old Zhu family as people, and you will deceive people too much.
A king of Zhou may not be Shen Dongkui's eyes, but a king of Zhou and a eunuch guarding the town, Shen Dongkui has to weigh it, so although the Fubiao battalion has many soldiers and is fine, most of the people and horses from the eunuchs are filled by splashing skins and are not usable, but the confrontation between the two is that it is the side of splashing skin that has the upper hand by relying on the kung fu of scolding in the market.
Yang Chengzu looked at it for a while and said, "Huhou, you are watching here, you must not let them transport the grain away, brother, I will think of a way." ”
Liu Jiang always got a lot of silver taels from him, so he had to take care of a few words, and gently pulled him and said: "Brother Yang, you are a foreign brocade clothes, what can you think of?" Listen to my brother's advice, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, what you should do has been done, as for how far things develop, it is not up to you to decide, we can't do this. Let them toss around, let's just watch. ”
"Thank you Brother Liu Gaoyi, but I always want to give it a try, what if there is a way? Now on top, it must be no good, if the bottom of the kettle is drawn, it may not be able to solve the matter. You just wait for the good news. ”
