A plate of peanuts, two taels of old white dry, three taels of pig's head meat...... Simple wine and food are placed between Zhang Ke and Zhang Feng brothers, this thing is really not like the prince will eat, in fact, it is not eaten, but it is just good-looking.

Zhang Feng was completely confused, he held Chongzhen's holy decree, read it several times, and took out the copy written by Zhang Ke, reading it word by word, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't understand it. Why does the excerpt of asking for merit become a life-urging talisman, Zhang Feng has never died so many brain cells in his life.

Syllable.

He put the fold and the decree on the table, and suddenly took the candle and baked it in front of it.

"Second brother, I guess you must have written an excerpt with a potion, roasted it with a fire, and all the evidence of the crime came out!"

Am I that stupid!

Zhang Ke was completely defeated, grabbed the nervous eldest brother, and said helplessly: "It's so easy, do I need to spend that effort!" ”

"Then you can tell me, how did you get the emperor to order Xiong Tingbi to be killed?"

"Hehe, our Emperor Chongzhen, he prides himself on being wise, but he is a little nervous. I have a total of two chapters this time, the first is to sweep up the White Lotus bandits, clean up the Xuanfu army, which contains a lot of evidence of the White Lotus Sect's cruelty to the people, and the next one is to talk to Xiong Tingbi and understand his years of hard work in the name of asking for merit from the saint. ”

Zhang Feng nodded: "That's right, that's it, is there any mystery?" ”

"Of course." Zhang Ke picked up the first recital and said with a smile: "The White Lotus Sect written here bewitches the people, commits evil and kills, and the location and number of people are similar to the place where Xiong Tingbi told his own merits in the second recital. ”

"Ahh

Zhang Feng couldn't help but exclaim, he suddenly understood Zhang Ke's technique, and couldn't help but say: "This, this is not too kind!" In fact, what he wanted to say was that this was too immoral!

The two pieces are one before and one behind, even if a normal person sees it. will suspect that Xiong Tingbi is a good killer, not to mention that it involves the White Lotus Sect. Naturally, it will be reminiscent of Xiong Tingbi shielding the White Lotus Sect, the White Lotus Sect killed people, not only did he not exterminate them, but on the contrary, he also took the heads of the dead people to make efforts.

Otherwise, the Xuanfu has not been infested by the Tartars all these years, how could it have made so many contributions.

Chongzhen is definitely the most suspicious king. I heard that his wife is from Yangzhou and can sing small songs, so he has to send someone to investigate to see if he is from a thin horse.

This is true for his wife, let alone for the minister. What's more, Xiong Tingbi is still a quasi-eunuch!

The party is attached to Wei Gelding. colluded with White Lotus, falsely reported his military exploits, and brutalized the people...... Enough, a decree was issued, and the knife was directly asked, and the head was passed on to the nine sides.

As for Zhang Ke from the previous book, he did a very good job of tracking down the White Lotus Sect and cleaning up the black sheep in the army. But he was confused by Xiong Tingbi later. It is really confusing to write a letter for a sinner to ask for credit. The mind is based on merit, but it is only a decree to be reclaimed, and it is in the will. explained that Zhang Ke had to work hard, see through the disguise, and clean up all the traitors who seemed to be loyal......

"Second brother, your trick is very powerful. It's just a reprimand in vain, and it's always a little uneconomical. ”

"Hahaha, big brother. You haven't figured it out, if I don't sell a flaw, how can the Son of Heaven kill Xiong Tingbi so happily? And let me keep doing it! ”

As a superior, he always likes to show that he is better than his subordinates, and he can think of things that others can't think of. As a subordinate, you must not only do things well, but also leave the opportunity to show your face and show your IQ advantage to the superior.

Take Chongzhen as an example, when he found something that Zhang Ke didn't discover, he naturally felt that he was more clever than King Anton who was the mighty of the world, and he wanted to kill Xiong Tingbi to satisfy his vanity.

And Zhang Ke took the opportunity to ask Xiong Tingbi for credit, and washed himself again, so that Chongzhen didn't think he wanted to take down the nine sides, so he gave power to Zhang Ke and let him continue to patrol the border......

There are some things that are not great to put it bluntly, but they involve the deepest grasp of people's hearts. Invisibly, Zhang Ke took advantage of his grasp of Chongzhen's character to kill Xiong Tingbi lightly.

It's just a trick to win, and the thick black skill is off the charts!

After Zhang Feng listened, in addition to admiration, he still admired.

"Second brother, if my brother has four thumbs, I'll give them all to you!" Zhang Ke admired: "You used to be quite powerful, after grabbing the handle, you chased and beat hard, and you didn't stop until you reached your goal." But now you've learned to kill invisibly, and you're progressing too fast! ”

Being complimented by the eldest brother, Zhang Ke was still very useful, and said with a slight smile: "Big brother, now that we have the emperor's Shang Fang sword, we can dispose of the nine sides casually, what do you think of the next step?" ”

Zhang Feng thought about it for a while, in order not to be left too far by his brothers in the past few years, Zhang Feng has also made a lot of efforts, at least to get a clear picture of the situation in Mongolia and Jiubian.

"Second brother, the most important thing in the nine sides is the four places, Liaodong, Jizhen, Xuanfu, Datong, now the first three are in our hands, the most important thing to do now is two things, the first is to implement the tuntian system in Xuanfu and control the place. The second is to march into Datong and take Shanxi into your hands. The lair of the Jin merchants has fallen under our blade, and we can deal with it as we want! ”

After listening to this, Zhang Ke bowed slightly. What the eldest brother thinks is similar to himself, just entering Datong is equivalent to completely tearing his face with Jin Shang, or not, let's see who is more ruthless......

The next day, outside the city of Xuanfu, hundreds of people gathered, and in the middle of the crowd, there were thousands of people kneeling in black, and there were signs hanging in the air about their crimes.

"White Lotus rebelled against the party, plotted to rebel, the crime cannot be punished, and on the orders of the emperor, kill the White Lotus bandits."

The literate people read it out, and everyone listened with their ears pricked up, daring to love the White Lotus Sect, which really deserved to be killed. But there were also some people who secretly looked at the people on the earth and recognized them.

Where is the White Lotus Sect bandits, it is clearly the military household in their village, they are usually idle, but after becoming a family, they are even more fearless, and they specialize in bullying the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law, which is simply a big scourge.

"Whether it's the White Lotus Sect or the ruffian hooligan, it's best to die anyway!"

When the Yizhou soldiers raised their guns, rows of gunshots rang out, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, and the smell of blood was pungent. The people clapped their hands again and again, and the resentment in their chests seemed to disappear.

Soon, special personnel cut off the head, treated it with quicklime, and immediately sent it to the capital.

Chongzhen personally inquired, and when he heard that there were so many White Lotus Sects, he immediately became excited. Sure enough, if it weren't for the connivance of Governor Xiong Tingbi, where would there be so many bandits, Xiong Tingbi should have been killed!

"Wang Banban, you said that just cutting off the head is not cheap Xiong Tingbi, I think it should be hanged, even if the nine clans are destroyed, it is not too much."

What a hatred this is, Wang Chengen's shame. can only say: "Master, Xiong Tingbi's head has been cut off, and it is being exhibited everywhere on the nine sides!" ”

The implication is that it has already been punished, so don't pursue it anymore.

"Well, he's cheap." Chongzhen suddenly felt a little lonely, and sighed: "Hey, the imperial brother has left such a mess, I have been thinking hard, the country is becoming more and more difficult, and there are rogues in Shaanxi, what should I do?" ”

Is it really a sin of the apocalypse?

Of course, Wang Chengen couldn't tell the truth, so he could only comfort: "The master is eating and closing, and the old slave is distressed when he looks at it." As the so-called illness comes like a mountain, illness goes like a thread, the master has just ascended the throne, no matter how clever the doctor is, he can't get rid of the medicine, but according to the old slave's opinion, in a few years, the Ming Dynasty will be thriving, and Zhongxing is hopeful. Otherwise, I'm sorry for the hard work of the master! ”

"A slave with a clever mouth." Chongzhen chuckled a few times, picked up the piles of folds again, and looked at it beautifully......

Xiong Tingbi was killed, and his head spread to Jiubian, and the news quickly spread all over the place, and the neighboring Datong was the first to get the news, and several Jin merchant families gathered at the Fan family for the first time, and Fan Yongdou got together to discuss countermeasures.

Huang Yunfa's family is engaged in wood fur sound, and there are salt pans in Lianghuai and Changlu, and he has strong financial resources. He spoke first and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, Xiong Tingbi was operated by us to be the governor, to put it bluntly, he just wants to resist Zhang Ke's forces with his skills. But Xiong Tingbi was easily killed by Zhang Ke, it had no effect at all, he was really a rice bucket, incompetent! ”

Another wealthy businessman, Wang Dayu, said with a wry smile: "Zhang Ke has military power in his hands, and the emperor above supports it, not to mention Xiong Tingbi, if you change it to anyone, there is no way to compete." Xiong Tingbi is dead, we should think about what we are going to do. ”

Fan Wensheng, as a member of the Fan family, can also be regarded as the master, he suddenly said: "Brother, and you, we and Zhang Ke are also partners, especially in the wool business, there are two or three million inputs every year, can we cooperate......

Before he finished his words, Zhai Tang stood up, his eyebrows were clear, he was gentle and elegant, but when he got angry, it was absolutely terrifying.

"What cooperation? Zhang Ke monopolized sales, especially overseas sales, we worked hard to collect wool, spun into thread, woven into wool, all of which were purchased by him at a low price, and we made a little hard money! What is this, dignified Jin merchants, hundreds of years of inheritance, the faces of our ancestors have been lost by us, eating other people's leftovers, you are not ashamed, I still want this face! ”

The brother was scolded, and Fan Yongdou's face sank.

"Brother Zhai, it's useless to get angry, what we want now is a way, Zhang Ke's army will be in Datong soon. I just got the news that someone is secretly investigating the Yongfeng, and I guess Zhang Ke is aware of our actions. ”

Rumble!

The faces of everyone in the audience were pale, and a few of them unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.

"Brother Fan, this joke can't be made!"

"Whoever is joking with you, don't always think that you are wise, everyone else is a fool. To be honest, we were still in too much of a hurry and showed our feet. ”

Zhai Tang frowned deeply, and said: "Brother Fan, so far, I don't think there is anything to say, it's a big deal to break the net with Zhang Ke." ”

Wang Dayu shook his head and said: "It's easy to say, but where there are people and horses, besides, they may not be Zhang Ke's opponents." ”

Zhai Tang's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled mysteriously.

"If you want to talk about people and horses, we really have them in our hands, as long as they kill us, Zhang Ke will not have the energy to deal with us."

Fan Yongdou was slightly stunned and asked, "Could it be that Brother Zhai is talking about the Mongols?" (To be continued......)
