Chapter 348: Arrest
Zheng Baihu is called Zheng Tong, a serious Jinyi Wei family, it is said that it has been Jinyi Wei since the Yongle period, and it is said that he has done a lot of things back then, but the later generation is not as good as the generation, and now he can only barely do a hundred households, so Zheng Tong is full of great expectations for this time to Xuzhou.
The reason for his expectation is very simple, Manager Yang gave him a promise, as long as he succeeds in finding clues and knocking down Song Qing and Hu Jie, he will be able to rise to a thousand households, and he can get a large sum of silver, he believes 100% that as a native of Nanjing City, he also knows the foundation of Manager Yang very clearly, and he knows that this person has a lot of energy, and the future of leading troops seriously will definitely be no problem, and it is definitely not a problem to support the commander of the small local guard, even if it is the result of the exchange of interests in all aspects, this is also a manifestation of the ability of the hard state, It is definitely easy to let him, a hundred households, go to the next level and do a thousand households, so he is also very careful about this errand, and he only wants to do it as soon as possible.
But the heart is attentive, the arrogance of the Jinyiwei is still not restrained, the Jinyiwei is very honest in the two capitals, far less majestic than Hong Wunian, but as long as the two capitals are out, it is a pair of people in the court to inspect the local style, although this time although it is a secret investigation, but he does not feel that the other party has any ability to resist, so he did not take the word secret to heart, and the store is a pair of shouting five and six, for fear that people will not know that they are the head of the official, how can they hide their tracks.
After a few days in Pizhou, he is really addicted, there is no official in this place, he is the largest, and a group of people are also filial piety on weekdays, but there is no adult he needs to be careful about serving, I am afraid that after doing a thousand households, he will not have such enjoyment, and he really feels a little bit like a chicken head rather than a phoenix tail. All in all, it is quite comfortable and intimate.
But this errand always has to be done, Zheng Tong thought about it roughly, and estimated that in the next two days, the four people who were sent out should come back, so he simply gathered everyone together, planning to go out of Lu to eat a good meal, and then folded up his spirit to run the errand, and when the errand was completed, he took the silver that Song Qing and Hu Jie were filial piety to, and even the silver obtained by raiding the house. and the money rewarded by the boss, continue to mix in Pizhou for a few days, and then return to Nanjing to take over the position of Qianhu after having enough, this is the way to win in life.
The subordinates are also happy, although everyone has also been out of the city these days, but because of the errand on their bodies, they have not been happy, and most of them have to squat here, only a few people can take turns to go out. Everyone is not having a good time, today the adults are obviously going to break the routine and let everyone have a good time, and there are few serious errands in Jinyiwei this year. It is difficult to go to Nanjing, and there is a desire to have fun in the place, and the mood is naturally very good.
Picked a hotel, and everyone began to drink and eat. The atmosphere soon became warm, and they were all shouting about how hard this trip was, and when the errand was done. You must have a good time, a few big mouths also talked about how Song Qing Hu Jie was, Zheng Tong finally remembered what he did when he came out, and hurriedly blocked the mouths of these people, and saw that they had almost eaten, and it was already dark, for fear of tossing and exposing their identities again, so he hurriedly took everyone away and returned to the inn in a leisurely manner.
When passing by the small road where there were no people, several people were drunk, and began to vomit on the wall, and a few others rose below, and they all touched the root of the wall and walked the kidneys, wow wow and the sound of the uproar echoed each other, which made Zheng Tong also a little uncomfortable, and was about to use his not very sober brain to ponder which way to solve the problem first, suddenly felt that there was a cool breeze blowing behind him, and subconsciously turned around, and saw a few men walking towards this side, with brisk but powerful steps.
This is somewhat strange, I have been in Pizhou for a few days, this road is often walked, because there are a few shops selling coffins and shrouds around, so there have been few people passing by on this street, not to mention that it is now night, if they are not nearly thirty people together, maybe they will not dare to take this road, it stands to reason that they should not meet anyone at all, let alone meet this kind of obviously unusual person, and then look at the leading boy is handsome, but there is a fierce light in his eyes, and the rest of the people are not too big, and some are even thirteen or fourteen years old, But the murderous aura is a few points heavier than those old rivers and lakes, such a group of people suddenly appeared around him, obviously a sign of danger, what should he do?
Drinking and making mistakes, this is definitely not a lie, Zheng Tong's brain is not too good, but if he is in a sober state and sees such a group of people approaching him, he can at least make two reactions, either ask who the other party is, or what he is doing here, or simply take the brothers and run away, either choose one of the two.
But now his brain is very difficult to use, and there are four kinds of thinking at the same time, vomiting, walking kidneys, asking, and running for his life, Zheng Tong is not a smart person, and he was swayed by these four kinds of thinking for a while, and he couldn't make effective judgments at all, until the handsome boy who walked in front rushed over and put the knife against his abdomen, he suddenly reacted, these guys seem to be extremely threatening, but the knife has been resisted, and now it seems a little late to understand, fortunately, he still has a little guts, and tries to pretend to be fierce, threatened: "This official is Zheng Tong of the Hundred Households of Jinyi Wei, who are you waiting for, dare to hold the Son of Heaven hostage and want to punish the Nine Clans?" ”
"That's right, you're what I'm looking for, come with me!" Luo Xiaobei nodded with satisfaction, looked at the Jinyi guards who were also controlled, and glanced at his subordinates, a group of baby soldiers immediately escorted all the people away, turned into a small alley, and then Hu Jie's henchmen came to answer, tied ropes, and packed sacks, and took the cart to transport all of them out of Lu, twenty-nine people were not missing, and in less than half an hour, they appeared in a private residence of Hu Commander's envoy, and were escorted to Song Qing and Hu Jie.
Tearing off the sack on his head and taking out the rag in his mouth, Zheng Tong suddenly understood what was going on, because he saw Hu Jie, for one of the big goals, he had seen it from afar, and he also remembered the appearance of this person, seeing that the other party was sitting on a stool, and he became a prisoner, if he didn't understand it, he wouldn't mix it up in the position of Jinyiwei, but he still couldn't figure out why the other party was so bold and dared to kidnap them Jinyiwei.
There is another question that he is also puzzled about, who is the young man sitting next to Hu Jie? Why is Hu Jie so respectful to him? Could it be that this is the ......
While pondering, Song Qing had already spoken, and he went straight to the point, sneering: "You are Zheng Baihu, right?" Let me introduce myself, Song Qing, the official of Xuzhou! ”
"You're Song Qing?" Zheng Tong had actually guessed it, but he still felt a little unbelievable, although the power of Jinyiwei was not as good as in Hongwu in these years, and it was also robbed of a lot of limelight by Dongchang, but he still hadn't seen anyone dare to blatantly deal with Jinyiwei, after all, this is the world of the Ming Dynasty, and doing so is tantamount to wanting to rebel.
But no matter how unbelievable it is, the facts are happening right in front of them, they were originally their prey, but now they have become hunters, but they are these high-spirited brocade guards, and now they have become prisoners, kneeling on the ground and waiting for their fate, although this thing feels strange no matter how you think about it, but Zheng Yong has been able to completely judge the situation, and the wine has been awake for seven or eight minutes, and he was silent for a long time before saying: "I am the brocade guard of the imperial court, and I am the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and hijacking us is tantamount to a blatant rebellion, don't think that one of you is a general, One is the commander of the guard, and he can carry it over, and the acquaintance will immediately release me and these brothers, otherwise when you return to Nanjing, none of you will think about it! ”
"Back to Nanjing?" Song Qing seemed to have heard some extremely ridiculous joke, tilted his neck and enjoyed for a long time, looked at Zheng Tong very seriously, and then asked: "Zheng Baihu's heart is big enough, it has come to this point, do you think you can still go back to Nanjing?" You also said, I am the sin of the Zhujiu clan, since I arrested you is the Zhujiu clan, killing you is just this crime, and if you can't find it out, maybe I won't have anything to do, if you are me, how will you choose? ”
Listening to it, Zheng Tong's face changed, from the smoky red of wine to the miserable white of death, because he suddenly felt that Song Qing was right, if it was him, he promised to choose the latter way, that is, to kill all of them Jinyi guards, and there was really no evidence, Hu Jie was originally the head snake here, and he chose such a very remote path, or started at night, and no one saw what they did. It is also very easy to remove the body after the killing, but I am afraid that even if Nanjing suspects that they were killed by Song Qing, there will be no evidence to come up, and the last thing can only be done.
Because the identities of Song Qing and Hu Jie are not low, one is a three-grade general with heavy troops, and the other has just been awarded a knighthood, it is said that the emperor also summoned him in person, and gave a royal banquet, even if it is two martial artists, not the most difficult Qingliu civil officials to deal with, in the absence of evidence, Nanjing really does not dare to do anything to them.
Not to mention that Hu Jie also has a backer in Nanjing, the reason why they are investigated this time is because Manager Yang does not believe that Yang Fang committed suicide, on the other hand, it is actually an old friend of Manager Yang, Lord Shangshuqu of the Nanjing Military Department and Hu Jie's backer Yu Shilang are not on good terms, but so far there is no winner or loser, as long as Yu Shilang is there, don't think about moving Hu Jie and Song Qing easily, that is to say, if these two people kill them, I am afraid that Nanjing will not be able to help them avenge.
