Zhao Bingqian has never been so desperate, he can be ruthless in the officialdom, even when facing Li Xin, he knows that even if the other party wants to rectify himself, it is better to be justified than to convince the public. But the Japanese in front of him is a group he is completely unfamiliar with, he has never dealt with, according to records and rumors, these people are some murderous villains, can he fall into the hands of these people can have a good end? Thinking of this, his body couldn't help but sit on the ground weakly.

"Old, old man is, yes ......"

Just when he was intermittent, Gao Zhenfu's disgusting voice came from the city wall again, but this sound reached Zhao Bingqian's ears and made him even more desperate.

"Political envoy, I, the Ming officials, must have integrity, and must not grovel to the Japanese coles. The next official advises you to do the whole festival...... In the future, the name of the young history will also be passed on to future generations, don't be confused for a while, infamous for a thousand years......"

To put it bluntly, this so-called whole festival is to persuade him to commit suicide, so that he is admittedly full of integrity, but the little ones who calculate themselves behind him also have to calculate. How can Zhao Bingqian, who has always been arrogant, be willing to die? At this time, driven by a strong desire to survive, he couldn't help but say something that even he was surprised and inexplicable.

"Don't, don't kill the old man, the old man is the political envoy of Zhejiang, and the old man will meet all your requirements."

In just an instant, he had already decided to endure the humiliation, and in the future, if he had the opportunity, he would be able to kill these people who calculated him one by one, and take revenge.

The strangely dressed leader of the widows looked a little strange, and he walked a little funny, as if he was carrying a leather ball in his crotch, and he was talking in a hurry, but Zhao Bingqian couldn't understand it, so he could only grovel to the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, so that he could not stumble when he conveyed it.

However, the young man was obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp, and when he heard that the embarrassed old man in front of him was the political envoy of Zhejiang Province, he immediately came to his senses.

"I said that you old man, it's not good to pretend to be someone, but to pretend to be a political envoy, does the political envoy have the virtue of you? It's understandable that you want to live, but you think that Tagawa-san is so deceiving, this is your mistake. ”

Zhao Bingqian saw that the little rabbit cub didn't believe his identity, and quickly explained with a trembling smile: "This little hero doesn't know, there is a civil strife in the city, and the captive Hou Li Xin intends to murder the old man, and the old man has to escape from Cheng, if you don't believe it, the little hero can ask the people in the city to know." ”

The young man obviously disdained this, with a disapproving expression on his face, Zhao Bingqian secretly complained, so he was close to it.

"Listening to the little hero's accent, he is also from Shaoxing Mansion, right? What's wrong with the old man is also a parent in this province......"

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bingqian was okay when he didn't say that, but as soon as he said this, the young man suddenly became excited.

"Don't mention anything to Lao Tzu about the parents of this province, if it weren't for you parents who were corrupt and perverted the law, wouldn't Lao Tzu have voted for the widows? You say you're really a political envoy? At the end, the young man asked in an accentuated tone.

Zhao Bingqian knew that his tone was not good, but he still replied yes.

The young man suddenly came up and slapped him in the mouth, extremely loud, these two blows obviously used ten percent of his strength, and I saw that Zhao Bingqian's cheeks were swollen instantly.

"Dog official, it was you who harmed Lao Tzu to such a field, do you think Lao Tzu will let you go?"

At this time, there was a shout behind him suddenly, but this time it was not Gao Zhenfu, but the trembling voice of the Hangzhou prefect.

"Don't kneel down to the widows, my Ming officials must live uprightly, stand up to the sky and die, and can't embarrass the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhao Bingqian is angry and angry, others say that he is just that, what kind of thing is your prefect, he follows behind him like a dog on weekdays and shakes his head and tail, even if you kneel down and lick your shoes, you are happy, but now you are teaching yourself in the city like a dog, which is really unreasonable.

He just remembered to confront the prefect for a few words, but there was a huge force in his chest, and it was the young man who kicked him on his back and faced the sky.

Zhao Bingqian realized his situation at this time, so he had to get up and say extremely depressed: "How can you let go of the old man?" ”

The young man was stunned for a long time, then he smiled and said word by word: "Okay, you kneel down and kowtow to me ten times, maybe think about ......"

After hearing this, Zhao Bingqian was stunned, his face was blue and white, and he hesitated. At this time, there were shouts behind him one after another, and Zhao Bingqian could hear it without looking back, it was his former subordinates in the city.

Just when Zhao Bingqian was hesitating, the katana of the Japanese suddenly flipped over, and it hit his neck at once, cutting the fine skin and tender flesh on his neck with only a slight force, and the blood dripped down drop by drop. The stinging pain made him suddenly realize his situation at the moment, and in order to survive, he did not hesitate, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Until the last head, knocking down, Zhao Bingqian was already crying tears, and he couldn't stand up straight for a long time. He could hear the noise of the people and horses, he could hear the rebuke of the city, but he could still feel the pressure on his neck disappear suddenly. He knew that the other party really got his wish, and his burden of forbearance and humiliation was finally exchanged for a life.

The rumbling cannon sound in the distance slowly approached, and Zhao Bingqian raised his head in surprise, only to see a scarlet Ming army battle flag from far and near. Looking around, where are the other widows? The people around me have gone completely.

"Where's the Wako? What about the Woko? ”

The gate of Hangzhou suddenly opened, and a team of people rushed out, led by the Hangzhou prefect who shook his head and tailed behind Zhao Bingqian in the past, Fan Youming. The other person next to Fan Youming was Gao Zhenfu, and the two of them looked at Zhao Bingqian who was still sitting stiffly on the ground with a smile.

"Envoy, get up, the Japanese have fled."

Until this moment, Zhao Bingqian was still in a dream, he wished that this was a nightmare, so he woke up quickly. It's just that the cruel reality reminds him that this is not a dream, and his future is completely finished.

"It's just a renegade, what else is a political envoy?" Fan Youming's face was full of disdain, and he looked at Zhao Bingqian on the ground, "Zhao Bingqian, haven't you knelt enough?" Hurry up and get up, don't you think our Daming people have been lost by you? ”

"You! Fan Youming, what kind of thing are you? Dare to go wild in front of the old man! ”

Being questioned by Zhao Bingqian, Fan Youming subconsciously shrank his neck, after all, Zhao Bingqian had just lost power, and Yu Wei was still there.

"You, you, why can't this officer reprimand you? You have lost the face of my Ming official, just wait to listen to the ginseng, this official will definitely participate, you will never be able to turn over. ”

Originally, Fan Youming was still a little weak when he said this, but Zhao Bingqian was like a withered grass after autumn, and he suddenly lost his voice, and his originally aggressive posture was completely sluggish. Yes, since his ten heads kowtowed, he is no longer qualified to be an official of the Ming Dynasty, even a small county order is impossible.

He still has a strong desire to survive, but he knows that no matter what, he will not end well in the hands of these people, so he can only let it go.

Yao Qisheng was very involved in a play and worked very hard, because Niu Jinsong had promised him that as long as the corrupt official was rectified, he would allocate a full army member to his subordinates. At this moment, he was looking for Niu Jinsong to ask for an account, Niu Jinsong smiled slyly at Yao Qisheng, who was collecting debts, and said in his heart, no matter how smart you are, but you are still too young.

"You may not know the system of our Three Guards, the general, the thousand, and the garrison are just titles, and if you want to master the troops, you need to have actual positions in the Three Guards, such as team officers and battalion officers."

Yao Qisheng was angry at that time, pointed at Niu Jinsong's nose and asked, "You, do you want to break your word and get fat?" ”

Niu Jinsong smiled: "When did I say that I was going to break my word and get fat?" ”

"What about you?"

Yao Qisheng was puzzled, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this Niu Jin pine's belly.

"In this way, the system of the Three Guards cannot be destroyed, but it can also give you some benefits outside the system. You are allowed to recruit a quota of 100 people on your own, and you will be used as auxiliaries. ”

Originally, Yao Qisheng still wanted to argue with reason, but Niu Jinsong said that he would not give in to anything, he had to accept this method of retreating, after all, he was allowed a quota of 100 people, and he had the final say on who he wanted to recruit, and if he calculated it like this, he might have earned it.

"Tagawa Emon, I want it!"

Niu Jinsong was very strange.

"What do you want that wrinkle? That widow was castrated by you, aren't you afraid that he will take revenge on you one day? ”

Yao Qisheng said mysteriously: "Mountain people have their own tricks. ”

It wasn't until Yao Qisheng went happily that Niu Jinsong went to report to Li Xin about today's basic situation. Hearing that Niu Jinsong was embarrassed for Yao Qisheng in the matter of the 100-man soldiers, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Isn't it a hundred-man team, a hundred people are allocated to him from the auxiliaries of the Three Guards, and their combat power is not much better than that of the infantry battalion. After all, Yao Qisheng still has merit, is it a little mean to do this? ”

Niu Jinsong said solemnly: "General, I still think that this Yao Qisheng's origin is suspicious, if I don't test it, I'm afraid that there will be trouble because of this person in the future." ”

Li Xin laughed at this, but he was very curious about how Yao Qisheng recruited these 100 people, because his 100 people were only casually promised by Niu Jinsong, but he was not registered in the quartermaster camp, and he would not be allocated grain and grass. Besides, where did he go to recruit a hundred men?

At this time, someone suddenly came to report.

"Fan Youming, the prefect of Hangzhou, and Gao Zhenfu of Zhejiang City asked to see him."

Soon, the two of them walked in with small steps, and after saluting one by one, they brought up the topic of today's request.

"The day for the public trial of Zhao Bingqian has been set, just three days later, I don't know what else the marquis of Zhenqian has to order......
