Chapter 298: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

Although Zhangjiakou is very prosperous and lively every day, like today, I don't know how long it hasn't happened. The entire Zhangjiakou Fort and Laiyuan Fort were all sealed, and outside the two fortresses, the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty surrounded the two fortresses tightly. Although checkpoints were set up outside the city gates, they could only enter and not exit, and it was obvious that people in the city were not allowed to go out.

After the siege of the city, Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao were also in a panic, and some people even thought that the Mongol Tartars were calling again. However, since the Qi army defeated Dong Fox that year, the Mongol Tile Thorns and Tatars have all signed an alliance with the Ming Dynasty and have not invaded for many years.

However, there are also people who oppose it, even if the Mongol Tatars attack, they will not suddenly appear in Zhangjiakou. Obviously, the previous argument was not true, but soon the news came out of the yamen. A notice from the county magistrate Zhang Rui plunged the entire Zhangjiakou into mutual suspicion, and everyone wondered if the people around them were the ones to be arrested.

For businessmen, they will do anything if there is enough interest. Now the rewards given by the court can't touch the hearts of the big merchants, but the middle and lower class merchants are very attractive. can get a position of Jinyiwei, many people want to find a future for themselves or their sons.

In the afternoon, when the officials in the county government were carrying the pictures outside, they would be watched by many people wherever they went. After seeing this person's name and information, many people felt that the imperial court was making a fuss, because it was a person who everyone didn't think was very important.

In a place surrounded by a crowd, an old man pointed to the notice and explained loudly: "This person's name is Chen Liangyu, he is the original prefect of Zunhua, and when Jiannu attacked Zunhua, Kaicheng was thrown into Jiannu. He killed General Lu Fenglu, the general of Zunhua, and now the imperial court is offering a reward for him to be wanted. Those who can provide clues will be rewarded with 100 taels to 1,000 taels of silver depending on whether they are important or not. If you can catch someone, the court will reward you with 10,000 taels of silver, and you can also be a brocade guard. ”

After the old man finished reading, all the people around him let out an exclamation. Everyone was excited. Many people stared at the portrait tightly, looking at it seriously, frowning and thinking from time to time, hoping to find this person in their minds.

But no one noticed, at the back of the crowd, a person stared at the portrait closely, his eyes flickering. His brow furrowed tightly. It seems that he is thinking about something very important.

Beside this person stood a middle-aged man, who opened his mouth wide and looked at the portrait with a face full of disbelief. After a long time, he suddenly turned his head, looked at the people around him, lowered his voice and said, "Li Tou, that's not!"

It's just that he hasn't finished his words yet. Li Tou had already interrupted his words with a wave of his hand, and his face changed and said, "Don't say it!" After speaking, he looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to the two of them, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Frowning and muttering for a long time, Li Tou slowly pulled away from the crowd, walked towards the front, and came to the side of a head catcher. smiled and arched his hand, and said flatteringly: "Zhao Zhutou, I've seen Zhao Zhutou." As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of silver into Zhao Zhutou's hand, with a flattering face.

Gently swept the silver in his hand, Zhao Zhutou suddenly showed a smile on his face, as soon as he made a move, it was five taels of silver, it seems that this Li Hun has made a lot of money this time! Arching his hand slightly, Zhao Zhutou smiled and said, "Li Hun." It seems that you have gained a lot this time, how do you know the whereabouts of this person? Then I'm going to congratulate you. ”

Sneeringly, Li Hun said a little embarrassed: "What Zhao Zhutou said, how can a small one have that life!" There is just one thing I want to ask, and I hope Zhao Zhutou will give advice. ”

Zhao Zhutou and Li Hun have known each other for many years and know that this person is an outlaw, although he is a businessman on the surface. But in private, I have done a lot of unpleasant things. Although he is respectful to himself on the face, it is only because he is a head catcher, but such a person cannot be offended.

Nodding slowly, Zhao Zhutou said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly!" We've known you for more than a day or two. It doesn't have to be this way. ”

Gently pulling Zhao Zhutou's sleeve, Li Hun looked around, and said with a smile: "Zhao Zhutou, please take a step to speak."

After being slightly stunned, Zhao Zhutou pointed at Li Hun with a smile and said teasingly: "You! Always! But he also followed Li Hun to a slightly secluded place.

Coming to the corner, Zhao Zhutou said playfully: "Li Hun, you don't really know where this person is, right?" If you know it, you can say it, not only can you get 10,000 taels of silver, but you can also be a captain of the brocade guard. When I see you in the future, I will salute. ”

"Zhao Zhutou is joking, don't make fun of me, there is no such smoke on our ancestral grave. I pulled you over to ask you something else, I hope Zhao Zhutou will give us advice for the sake of our years of hypocrisy! Li Hun's eyes flashed, and then he returned to smiling and grinning, and said in a deep voice.

Seeing Li Hun's serious expression, Zhao Zhutou was slightly stunned, his face became solemn, and he asked in a serious tone: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"

Arching his hand at Zhao Zhutou, Li Hun said with a worried face: "Toutou, if it is just for such a person, why would the imperial court be so impressed, is there something going on here?" If Zhao Zhutou has any news, please don't hesitate to tell me! ”

Listening to Li Hun's words, Zhao Zhutou was stunned, and his eyes shrank suddenly. Looking at Li Hun in disbelief, Zhao Zhutou said with a smile: "I really didn't expect you Li Hun to have this heart?" It seems that I underestimated you before. ”

"Is there really another purpose?" Li Hun was suddenly shocked, and he didn't look at Zhao Zhutou, but said in disbelief.

"Who knows? I don't know. Glaring at Li Hun fiercely, Zhao Zhutou said with an unhappy face. He really didn't know, but if he did, he wouldn't dare to say. It must be a big deal to mobilize the people like this, and if he participates in a small headcatcher, it will definitely be a dead end.

However, yesterday Zhao Zhutou also heard some news, and when the county master was discussing with the master, he heard an ear. What Li Hun said was exactly what the county was worried about, and he couldn't help but look Li Hun up and down again, it seemed that he had really underestimated him before.

After a slight hesitation, Li Hun asked hesitantly: "Zhao Zhutou, there is still a matter to inquire about, I hope Zhao Zhutou can tell him without hesitation." Saying that, Li Hun stuffed a silver ingot into Zhao Zhutou's hand at one time, and this time it was a silver ingot of ten taels.

Taking the silver ingot, Zhao Zhutou shook his head slightly, and he was stunned in his heart. First, I was surprised that Li Hun was generous, and second, I was surprised that Li Hun wanted to ask. Last time, I gave five taels of silver, and I got such a problem. This time it's ten taels, and I don't know what to ask. However, after squeezing the silver in his hand hard, Zhao Zhutou still decided to ask, if he couldn't say it, it would be the same as last time.

Nodding slowly, Zhao Zhutou said with a smile: "If you have anything, just say it!" If I don't know, then I can't blame me. ”

Li Hun glanced around, lowered his voice and said: "Zhao Zhutou, this person came to Zhangjiakou, there must be someone to help, from Zunhua to here, the mountains are high and the rivers are long." Someone must have helped him, and it's likely that he did our job, so I want to ask, if I find this person, will we be implicated?"

Zhao Zhutou was slightly stunned, and once again glanced at Li Hun in surprise, he didn't expect this Li Hun to actually think of this. It seems that he has been able to mix in Zhangjiakou for so many years, and Li Hun does have his own ability. After a slight hesitation, Zhao Zhutou said with a smile: "Don't worry, you are just some small fish, even if you move, you can't move you." The above also deliberately explained this time that if it can provide useful clues or catch that person, the court can not pursue the crime. ”

As soon as Zhao Zhutou's words came out, Li Hun was stunned, his body trembled a little, and he was obviously very excited. After stabilizing his mind, Li Hun hugged his fist at Zhao Zhutou, and said with a smile: "Thank you Zhao Zhutou, I am grateful."

Looking at Li Hun's departing back, Zhao Zhutou nodded hesitantly, obviously he had doubts about this Li Hun in his heart. Although Li Hun covered it up very well, and the question was asked in a decent manner, but in the last question, Li Hun's change was very obvious. Zhao Zhutou, who has been in the yamen for many years, naturally won't fail to see it, frowning and thinking about it, touching the fifteen taels of silver in his arms, Zhao Zhutou shook his head with a smile.

After working in the yamen for so many years, Zhao Zhutou has long since lost the rashness of his youth, and if this matter had been put twenty years ago, he might have investigated the roots. Or go back and make a report to the county master, but now Zhao Zhutou no longer has that mind, as the so-called more thing is better than less thing!

Chen Liangyu was being hunted down all over the city, and the secluded courtyard on Blacksmith Street was not affected for the time being. However, the few people in Huang Taiji here are like ants on a hot pot, Chen Liangyu is constantly moving around the room, and this time the court is looking at himself, which makes Chen Liangyu very uneasy.

"Mr. Chen, don't be impatient! There will always be a solution to things! Huang Taiji didn't know how to comfort Chen Liangyu, of course, he wouldn't be like Manggus, thinking that killing Chen Liangyu and handing him over would calm the situation. The Ming Dynasty spent so much effort, it was impossible to just want to catch Chen Liangyu, which Huang Taiji knew very well in his heart.

Sighing deeply, Chen Liangyu said helplessly: "I really didn't expect that things would turn out like this, how did you know that we were here?" Can anyone really pinch it?"

"There will always be a day when things will pass, as long as Lord Belle and you stay here, there will be no problems." Ha Yuansheng on the side opened his mouth and said that he had been in Zhangjiakou for more than ten years, and his identity was naturally no problem. (To be continued.)
