Chapter 21 Stir the water up a little more

、、、、、、、

Xiong Tingbi is talented and immeasurable, meritorious but also has great faults, and there is nothing wrong with being imprisoned pending trial.

Yuan Dahai is not interested in Xiong Tingbi, not to mention that when he is working hard now, he naturally has no intention of rescuing this "bear barbarian" who makes the old pigskin feel tricky. In fact, it is still very beneficial to save Xiong Tingbi, at least this person knows the soldiers, as long as his brain is not hot, he must be a master in his own right, and he will also make the best use of it in Liaodong in the future. But at least for now, Yuan Dahai doesn't have any illusions that he can gather characters like Xiong Tingbi. The reason is very simple, even if people are victims now, but they are far from being able to win over the secretary of the East Factory in their own district, and his background is destined to be inseparable from those famous Ming officials. In the eyes of those traditional scholars, Yuan Dahai is just an "eagle dog" that can be used, but he will never be really close, which means that the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other.

Forming his own team, Yuan Dahai will definitely do it, he will naturally not be willing to be a dog under Wei Zhongxian's door forever, so he must work hard to climb up while creating his own people, a force that only obeys himself, otherwise he will always be controlled by others. However, the establishment of the team is not something that can be done overnight, and Yuan Dahai still knows the truth that you can't become a fat man in one bite. When he was still a small Dongchang secretary, he wanted to win over those capable celebrities, it was really a fool's dream, not to mention others, just say Xiong Tingbi, people are now locked up in prison, why did he save people?

You can think about things that can't be done, but you must never do them!

Maybe his own team can only be established when he is strong enough, just like Wei Zhongxian is still the honest and honest "Li Jinzhong" in front of Li Xuan, who was scared by Yang Lian, I am afraid that he has never thought about how to win over a group of courtiers to cheer for himself.

All I can rely on is these fans with the same background as myself, and the future will be left to the future, and the most important thing at the moment is to be the knife in Wei Zhongxian's hand! The moment he walked out of the alley, Yuan Dahai said to himself.

……

"Xiong's family is in the corridor alley outside Zhengyangmen, and when the imperial court locked Xiong Tingbi two years ago, his subordinates went to his house."

Zhang Dexi used to be an errand in Jinyiwei, and in the second year of the Apocalypse, he was ordered to raid the Xiong Mansion, so he knew the road and led the way in front.

The night was already deep, but it was not dark on the long street, and there were street lights on both sides. The street lamp is not the kind that Yuan Dahai saw in his previous life, but a candle flame covered by a lampshade, and there is one every dozens of steps, leading to the outer city.

There are no pedestrians on the road, only occasionally there are watchmen coming from the opposite side, and they see a few Dongchang fans coming in front, they are all interested in stopping on the side of the road, and only after Yuan Dahai and others are gone, they dare to continue to beat their bangzi.

The city patrol soldiers of Shuntianfu and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division also bumped into two groups, but they also glanced at Yuan Dahai and them from a distance, so they continued to patrol, and did not dare to come over to interrogate anything.

After walking for about half an hour, Yuan Dahai and his entourage found the Xiong's house located in the alley of the outer corridor. The courtyard of Xiong's house is not big, and it looks no different from ordinary people's homes.

"Boss, knock on the door?" Qian En asked, and was about to knock on the door.

Yuan Dahai stopped him, thought about it and told Zhang Dexi to climb the courtyard wall, go in and open the door directly.

Climbing the wall? Zhang Dexi was stunned for a moment, when he heard Yuan Dahai say that he was going to check Xiong Tingbi's family, he became excited, this fallen official's family is always slacking off to have oil and water to fish, so he has already saved up enough energy, and when he arrives at the ground, he will give him a kick in the door, the bigger the movement, the better, so as to show the majesty of their East Factory, and also shock the Xiong family, and then loot and extort something is naturally a trivial matter. Unexpectedly, Yuan Dahai asked him to climb the wall, making him look like a thief, which made Zhang Dexi very depressed, and jumped onto the courtyard wall of Xiong's house with the help of Li Qing, and after taking a look at whether there were any dogs inside, he jumped down.

After the gate was opened, Yuan Dahai walked towards the courtyard first, because the light in the courtyard was dark, and he couldn't see the furnishings clearly, so he didn't pay attention to it, and hit a water tank and made a noise.

In the middle of the night, everything was quiet, and the sudden sound naturally alarmed the Xiong family who were sleeping, and soon heard someone in the east courtyard house shouting: "Who?" Who's out there! ”

"Don't make a sound."

Yuan Dahai motioned to Qian En and them to keep quiet. The people in the house listened attentively, a little uneasy, got up and lit the candle and put on a single coat and came out to check, how do you know that the candlelight reaches, a few fans of the East Factory are looking at themselves coldly, can't help but be startled, dropped the candle on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "What are you going to do?" ”

The man on the ground was about thirty years old, with a Guozi face and sword eyebrows, and he looked like a chivalrous man, but his reaction did not match this face, and he was obviously very afraid of Yuan Dahai, and his eyes were full of horror.

Yuan Dahai stepped forward to pick up the candle, squatted down to shake the candle flame in front of this person's face, and asked in a condensed voice, "Who are you Xiong Tingbi?" ”

"It's... It's my father..."Because of fear, the man's voice was a little knotted, and his eyes were a little glared by the candlelight, so he had to turn his head away.

Xiong Tingbi's son? Yuan Dahai nodded: "What's your name?" ”

Taken by the prestige of Dongchang Fanzi, Xiong Tingbi's son did not dare to hesitate, and replied in a low voice: "Xiaomin Xiong You'an." ”

Yuan Dahai asked again: "Can you be famous?" ”

Xiong Youan nodded, and then quickly shook his head: "Xiaomin was born in the second rank of the forty-third year of Wanli, but because of his father, he is now a commoner. After a pause, the interrogator took the candle aside, then turned his face and said in a panic: "Dare to ask a few officials who have come here late at night, but something happened to my father?" ”

Yuan Dahai chuckled: "Your father lived very well in the edict prison and did not have an accident. ”

"That? As soon as he heard that his father had not had an accident, Xiong You'an's heart fell, and then he became a little worried, these people in Dongchang have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and there must be something wrong with coming here in the middle of the night, although I don't know what it is, but it is certain that it will never be a good thing, and I suddenly became uneasy.

Yuan Dahai answered Xiong Youan's doubts and said, "We came to you on a special trip. ”

"Looking for me?" Xiong Youan was stunned and hesitated: "What is the matter with the official looking for Xiaomin?" ”

"Do you recognize Wang Wenyan?" Yuan Dahai did not go around in circles with him and went directly to the topic.

As soon as he heard Wang Wenyan's name, Xiong Youan was obviously nervous, first stunned, and then quickly shook his head and said, "Xiaomin doesn't know." ”

"I really don't know?"

Yuan Dahai's eyes suddenly fixed on Xiong Youan, revealing a fierce light: "Xiong Youan, you have to know what our Dongchang does, if we don't find out about this, we won't come to you!" So I advise you, you'd better think about whether you should reply truthfully, otherwise, hum..."After finishing speaking, his expression instantly became very hideous, and he waved his hand and ordered Qian En and the others: "Detain all the Xiong family to the main hall, if he doesn't say it, let's let them say it!" ”

Hearing this, Xiong Youan was so excited that he was so anxious that he wanted to cry, and hurriedly said: "Don't, don't!" … What the officials want to know, the people all say, please don't alarm my mother..."

At this time, someone in the house could already hear someone crying quietly, and it seemed that the bear family was alarmed, and they would all be afraid.

Hearing Xiong Youan's words, Yuan Dahai naturally didn't embarrass the Xiong family anymore, and glanced at Qian En, "Take a pen and paper, he said, you remember!" ”

"Yes, Chamber!"

There were several people present, and Qian En was the most literate, so he always had a pen and paper on his body, and when he used to patrol the market, he made all the records. After taking out the pen and paper from his bosom, he opened the ink cartridge, laid the paper flat on the ground, and it was time to record.

After Qian En was ready, Yuan Dahai asked Xiong Youan directly: "Let me ask you, did Wang Wenyan promise you that as long as your Xiong family comes up with 40,000 taels of silver, you can save your father from prison?" ”

"This..."

Xiong You's peace of mind was sudden, the secret way was not good, and he didn't dare to speak.

Where could Yuan Dahai allow him to hesitate, and shouted: "Yes or no!" ”

"It's... Yes..."

Xiong Youan and his father Xiong Tingbi are really a sky, a land, one is as bold as a cow, and the other is as timid as a mouse, and they really put the door out of the dog. was so frightened by Yuan Dahai, he immediately made all moves.

"Xiaomin once approached Lord Wang and wanted to ask him to help my father intercede with the imperial court, so that my father could ......"

What Xiong Youan said was basically the same as what Yuan Dahai knew, no different, and after asking a few more details, Yuan Dahai asked Xiong Youan to press his handprint, and after drying it, he carefully folded Xiong Youan's confession and put it in his pocket. Then he looked down at Xiong Youan, who was very panicked:

"Your father Xiong Tingbi committed the capital crime of abandoning the land and losing the land, because he alone, how many Ming soldiers and the people of Liaodong have been harmed, do you know! The emperor imprisoned him in the edict, but did not ask him to behead, it is already a great gift from your Xiong family, if you dare to engage in private activities and want your father to be released from prison, don't blame me for not reminding you, if you do this, you can only harm your father in the end! ”

"I..."

Xiong You'an was angry when he heard this, and he was paralyzed and silent. Yuan Dahai ignored him, took Qian En and they turned around and walked out of the courtyard. Seeing that there was no oil or water, Zhang Dexi and Guo Kegang couldn't help but be disappointed.

Out of Xiong's Mansion, it was still dark, and it was still early before dawn, so Qian En asked Yuan Dahai: "Where are you going now?" ”

Yuan Dahai twisted his neck and smiled slightly: "Don't go anywhere, Grandpa Wei doesn't need us for the time being, let's all go back to sleep, recuperate enough to find someone tomorrow morning, let this kid have a good life, please let us have a happy life!" ”

"Looking for whom?" Zhang Dexi and Guo Kegang's eyes lit up, and they suddenly came to the spirit, listening to the meaning of the secretary, can there be a fat sheep to slaughter tomorrow?

"Ruan Dacheng!"

Yuan Dahai threw down a person's name, smiled and hummed a little song, and walked first.

Ruan Dacheng, I can point to you to stir up the water even more!
