Zhao Bingqian never expected that he walked around from the ghost gate, and finally survived, not only did he not have to pay 300,000 taels of silver, but Zheng Hongkui, who should have been cut by a thousand knives, could not run. He slowly got up from the ground, tied the robe he had hastily put on his body simply, and then came to Zheng Hongkui, and glanced up and down a few times with a cold face, and the servile state just now was like two people.

"Zheng Junmen, they all say that thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, I didn't expect it, you will become a prisoner again in the blink of an eye."

The fat on Zheng Hongkui's face twitched a few times, took off the Yanling knife on his waist and threw it to the ground, and consciously squatted down in the corner, and the few people in black also put down their weapons and squatted in the corner. Zhao Bingqian followed again, stretched out his hand, and said coldly: "Bring it!" ”

"What did you bring it?"

Zheng Hongkui raised his head and looked at Zhao Bingqian with a mocking look in his eyes.

This made Zhao Bingqian feel humiliated, if he was controlled by others, it would be fine, and now the people who rushed in were all Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers, was he still afraid of being imprisoned? At the same time, he also secretly made up his mind that he must go to the court and participate in the impeachment of Zheng Zhilong for rebellion, and this revenge will not be avenged as a husband!

However, Zhao Bingqian is a Sven person after all, and he will not act without saying a word, but only threatened coldly: "This official advises you to take the initiative, and when the official uses force, you will have a hard time!" ”

Zheng Hongkui smiled presumptuously and defiantly, "Then Lao Tzu is waiting for you to give Lao Tzu a hard time!" ”

Zhao Bingqian's head was beating suddenly, "Come on, drag these thieves out to the official and whip them twenty lashes first!" ”

He wanted to get these people out first, after all, there was still his beloved concubine on the bed, and at the same time, Zheng Hongkui would be reported to the world.

Just after shouting, none of these soldiers wearing the Daming official military horn did not listen to the order, Zhao Bingqian said angrily: "Are you all deaf? He ......turned around and scolded angrily, but he saw a familiar face, but this familiar face made his face change suddenly.

Because this person is not his subordinate at all, but a deputy general named Niu Jinsong, a close confidant under Li Xin.

Niu Jinsong grinned stiffly: "I'm sorry, these rabbit cubs only listen to me!" You bypassed me and gave orders to the soldiers of the Three Guards, I'm afraid that something is wrong! ”

Zhao Bingqian's anger was abruptly offset by this sudden change, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

It turned out that in order to clear the Japanese near Hangzhou, the Three Guards took over the city of Hangzhou, and after taking over the city defense of Hangzhou, in order not to make the people panic, Li Xin ordered the men and horses who maintained law and order inside and outside the city to replace the traditional number of the Ming official army. This is also one of the reasons why Niu Jinsong and the soldiers of the First Cadre and the Three Guards are wearing the Daming official military number.

Niu Jinsong slowly came to Zheng Hongkui, who was squatting in the corner, under Zhao Bingqian's stunned gaze, and took out the scribbled confession from his arms, pretended to look at it for a while, and then turned to Zhao Bingqian with a smile.

"How does the envoy explain this?"

"This, this is the thief's frame, it's pure fiction."

"Oh! I see. However, whether it is false or not, we have to investigate before we can make a number, so during the investigation, I also ask the political envoy to stay at home and not go out of the house at will! With that, he waved his hand again.

"Get them all out!"

The soldiers agreed in unison, and escorted Zheng Hongkui and a group of black-clothed men out.

But Zhao Bingqian was extremely angry, obviously he was a victim, but Niu Jinsong was deliberately targeting himself. Besides, as the highest official of Zhejiang's political envoy department, how could he be called by a mere deputy general. However, he still held back his anger with extreme restraint, after all, the city defense of Hangzhou is now in charge of the Three Guards, and he himself has just been rescued by the other party in a humiliating catastrophe, but the attitude that should be shown must not be swallowed in the stomach.

"What do you mean by that? When does the officer's action need to be approved by Vice President Niu? ”

Niu Jinsong didn't say anything to him, but replied disdainfully: "Just remember my words, without my order, these rabbit cubs will not let you out!" ”

Zhao Bingqian was shocked and angry, he didn't expect that he had just come out of the wolf's den and the tiger's den, and at the same time, an even more ominous premonition permeated his heart, he was afraid that this surnamed Niu was going to uproot himself.

However, Niu Jinsong ignored Zhao Bingqian's anger at all, and turned around and left as soon as he explained what should be explained.

Zhao Bingqian pointed at Niu Jinsong and said angrily: "You, you stand for this official!" ”

Niu Jinsong only replied with one sentence.

"The political envoy is good at doing it for himself, and the Three Guards have a sentence that I will give to you, 'Be lenient in confession and strict in resistance'." After that, he ignored the stunned Zhao Bingqian and left with people.

Until all the people had been gone for a long time, until his beloved concubine came to his side with courage, Pear Blossom brought the rain and called out complainingly, "Master." He woke up from a dream, only to feel that what had just happened seemed distorted and unreal, as if it were just a nightmare.

But the slap marks on Yin Hong's face and the bloody marks on the nails on the concubine's body reminded him that all this was not a dream, it was all real. Zhao Bingqian suddenly raised his hand and slapped the concubine, and slapped him in the face crisply and loudly.

I saw that his face was distorted, his body trembled, and he roared viciously: "Why don't you die!" How not to die! ”

A woman's name is more important than life, although she is just a concubine, but it made Zhao Bingqian taste the most painful wound of a man, so in Zhao Bingqian's heart, she is dead, and she must die. She has no reason to live in this world. If she is allowed to continue to live, she will undoubtedly put humiliation in front of her at all times.

The little concubine who was slapped was sincerely frightened, and immediately knelt on the ground and cried and begged for forgiveness, she counted on her own tears in exchange for this man's softness. But what she didn't expect was that these tears made Zhao Bingqian's heart harder as hard as a stone.

"You're going to die tonight! You can't live until the sun rises tomorrow! ”

It was only at this time that the concubine was completely panicked, she thought that Zhao Bingqian was just talking angry, but now it seems that she is serious.

"Master, master......"

"Don't call me master, from today onwards, you and I will break off our relationship, hurry up and die, don't live in this world and be embarrassed!"

Fear made the concubine cry, sad and desperate. And the man who was still warm until that hour ago, but now his heart is like an iron stone and let her die, has resolutely left.

Niu Jinsong put Zhao Bingqian's confession on Li Xin's table, saying that Zheng Hongkui really defected and surrendered, and tricked Zhao Bingqian into taking out all his greed for ink in Zhejiang.

"The general is really like a god!"

But Li Xin had a gloomy face and didn't say a word. After Niu Jinsong's eyebrows danced for a while, he also felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right, so he shut up and stood in place waiting for Li Xin to speak.

It's just that the room was dull for a long time, and after about half an hour, Li Xin said with exhaustion: "Zheng Hongkui raped Zhao Bingqian's concubine?" ”

Niu Jinsong knew that it was not good when he heard Li Xin mention this matter, but he could not deny it, so he had to nod reluctantly. Still, he tried to explain.

"Zhao Bingqian is not a good bird, and his concubine is no better......"

To Niu Jinsong's surprise, Li Xin did not get angry about this matter, but waved his hand tiredly, "That's it, get out!" The rest is done according to the plan! ”

Li Xin raised it high and fell gently, which made Niu Jinsong's heart feel bottomless, he wanted to ask the truth, but Li Xin didn't give him a chance after all.

So, Niu Jinsong had no choice but to ask about Zheng Hongkui's disposition.

"Then, is Zheng Hongkui still closed?"

Li Xin pondered for a while before saying, "Let him come to see me immediately!" ”

Niu Jinsong had to order him out, and he asked Zheng Hongkui to be taken outside Li Xin's study.

Zheng Hongkui asked himself about his meritorious service tonight, knowing that his crisis had passed, and after seeing Niu Jinsong, a confidant next to Li Xin, he hurriedly nodded and said hello, but when he saw this rough military general with a sad face, he asked: "Why is the military gate sad?" ”

Niu Jinsong glared at Zheng Hongkui angrily, "It's not because of you!" ”

"Me?"

Niu Jinsong felt that he had carried the black pot for Zheng Hongkui tonight, so he reprimanded: "Let you go to the trial of Zheng Hongkui, who let you rape. Stained his concubine? The general has always hated this kind of thing the most, but now it's good to let the general know...... "If it weren't for the fact that this person in front of him was of great use to Li Xin, he really wanted to go up and whip this person hard."

How do you know that Zheng Hongkui smiled: "This matter was done by the lower officials, what does it have to do with the military?" It's okay, the lower official will go and clarify with the marquis of Zhenyu! Besides, do you think Xiaguan is really a beast and hungry? Wrong, then Zhao Bingqian has a stubborn temperament, if it weren't for this to completely defeat his psychological defense, how could things go so smoothly tonight? Besides, the surname Zhao already has a way to die, and what happened to your army and Xiong Shangshu has a lot to do with this person. Otherwise, Gao Zhenfu is just a small city company, how can he have such energy? Let my Zheng family sailor succeed in a surprise attack without warning? Even if Zhejiang's coastal defense is weak, it will not stop there! ”

Niu Jinsong didn't expect that this guy would dare to take the initiative, and he couldn't help but feel a little better about Zheng Hongkui, so he said: "If you can rescue Xiong Shangshu back, the general will be happy, and this matter may not be investigated!" ”

"This is not easy, Xiong Shangshu is now locked up on an island off the coast of Zhejiang and is under the care of his cronies, as long as the lower official sends someone to deliver the letter, he can return to the land!"

Niu Jinsong was overjoyed when he heard this, "That's the case, why didn't you say it earlier?" If this can save Xiong Shangshu unscathed, maybe you can atone for your crimes! ”
