Chapter 239: This official understands

The people of Yuanyuan? Could it be that Qing's two hearts have really been harmonized? Gong Jichang was a little unconvinced, the commander of the Blue Wolf Army who had been chased and beaten by himself in front of him had become an honest farmer in peace.

"Qing Erxin, long time no see......" Gong Jichang said with his fists clenched.

"Yes, yes." Qing Erxin laughed, and his smile was a little stiff.

Gong Jichang asked: "Qing Erxin, the pseudo-Wei King Shi Xianda has already died in Huangquan for two years, why are you alive?" ”

Qing Erxin replied: "General, since the ninth year of Xiantong, after the defeat in Wuyoucheng, I was seriously injured and could not enter western Guangdong with the army, so I stayed in my hometown of Longxipu for some reason, so I can live to this day." ”

"Oh, so you're a blessing in disguise?" Gong Jichang said with a smile.

"The general trend of the blue wolf country has gone, and the Qinghe country can continue its life, which is the will of heaven. Isn't it beautiful that you and I were our own masters at the beginning, and now we meet here? Qing Erxin said, "The general is free to come to my Longxi shop, so what's the matter?" ”

"I don't have any other intentions, Gong is just here to marry a wife and give a bride price." Gong Jichang said.

When Qing Erxin heard that Gong Jichang didn't know that he still had an unclear relationship with the Blue Wolf Army in Nanyue, his heart calmed down: "Then why did the general kill my Longxipu villagers?" ”

Gong Jichang raised the Lock Dragon Sword in his hand: "Qing Erxin, you are Lizheng, and the laws of this Qinghe Kingdom are better than mine." General Ben was forced to fight back, so he stabbed three outlaws! ”

"I see. Then I'll do justice once. Qing Erxin stood his cane in the soil and said to Bucktooth Cai, "Outside Cai, is what General Gong said true?" ”

"Qing Lizheng, my people were killed, as for who is right and who is wrong, you are not at the scene, so you don't need to investigate it in detail." Bucktooth Cai turned around, "General Gong committed a murder in our Longxipu Village, and it was handed over to the county government to deal with it." ”

Qing Erxin and Bucktooth Cai are from the same village, so they will naturally favor Bucktooth Cai, but as soon as he thinks that Gong Jichang is the one who leads the troops, if he annoys him, he can find an excuse to "chase and suppress the Blue Wolf Army" at any time and kill back to Longxipu, which will be a big trouble.

"I'll go, you dead bucktooth, you said before that you didn't report to the official, and the funeral expenses will be borne by you, why did you change your mind again?" Gong Jichang looked at Bucktooth Cai contemptuously, and spat at him "Phew", "Despicable villain!" ”

"This time and that time. Li Zheng, the truth is like this......" Buck Tooth Cai began to sue the wicked first, completely subverting the facts-

This kid wanted to buy my Kuroda Chong's field by force, but because the bid was too low, I didn't agree, so I got into a verbal altercation with him, and then he started to beat me. My servant stepped forward to persuade him, but he didn't expect that this kid relied on his martial arts to kill Cheng Changlong and three others in a row...... Lizheng, you have to give me justice to the abbot.

fainted to death, the clever bucktooth Cai was so transmuted, and the conversation between Gong Jichang and the bucktooth Cai seemed childish and ridiculous.

"Bucktooth Cai, you are talking nonsense!" Luo Tai covered his heart and came over, "It was you who came to my house to forcibly collect fish tax, I have no money, so you let someone enter the house and rob my daughter as a countervail, and then I had a conflict with my son-in-law......"

Gong Jichang took Luo Tai's hand and said, "Dad, don't argue with them. Go to the county office and say, let the magistrate judge the case. We don't lose reason, and we're not afraid of anywhere. ”

Hei Dashuai once said that the current magistrate of Wuyoucheng is Ma Wenling, and when he arrives at the county office, he believes that Ma Wenling will not "break the gourd case by the gourd monk". Therefore, Gong Jichang was eager to go to the yamen and take legal means to solve the problem.

"Yes, go to the yamen to judge." Luo Changming jumped out.

"Butler, what are you coaxing, believe it or not, Lao Tzu stabbed you with a sword?" Gong Jichang glanced at Luo Changming.

"My lord, I'm so scaredβ€”" Luo Changming deliberately imitated the tone of the eunuch and said.

"You Longxipu, there are not as many people in a village as there are generals in this village, so I don't care too much about you. It's not too early, so I still went to the yamen quickly. Gong Jichang put away the Lock Dragon Sword, walked to the side of the leopard horse, and turned over and got on the horse.

"Gong Lang, wait for me." Little RosΓ© followed.

"What are you going to do?" Gong Jichang asked.

"Testify." Little Peach replied.

"That's fine." Gong Jichang nodded.

"Son-in-law, why don't you have lunch before leaving." Rodtai ran to the horse's head.

"Dad, when the case is closed, I'll come back for dinner." Gong Jichang said.

"Okay."

Luo Tai turned around and entered the thatched hut, took out a bag of sweet potato chips, and stuffed it into Gong Jichang's hand, "There is nothing good to eat at home, you can take it on the road to satisfy your hunger." ”

……

Bucktooth Cai and his entourage used the door panel to carry the three minions who were hacked to death by Gong Jichang and went to Wuyou City. Gong Jichang walked behind with Xiao Taohong, Luo Tai, and Sangouzi. When I arrived at the county office, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and the county office was empty.

Buck Tooth Cai rushed into the county government and beat a drum desperately, and the drum sounded loudly. As soon as the catchers heard the beat of the drums, they quickly ran to the public hall and stood in line.

Ma Wenling, the magistrate of the county, walked out of the back hall, tidied up his clothes and hats as he walked, and then sat in the court: "Who, don't you know that the official is taking a nap?" ”

"My lord, Cao Min Cai Yida sued the murderer Gong Jichang for murder-" Bucktooth Cai knelt down on his knees.

"Oh. It's worth it! Ma Wenling was shocked, "Take the murderer to the court!" ”

"No need to bring it, General Ben is here." Gong Jichang carried the sword to the public hall and saluted with both hands in fists.

"Bold, why don't you ...... when you see this official" Ma Wenling raised his head and saw that the person who came was Gong Jichang, and swallowed back the word "kneel".

"Master Ma, do you still know General Ben?" Gong Jichang said with a smile.

"Know, know." Ma Wenling ran down from the public hall and hurriedly saluted Gong Jichang, "Xiaguan has seen General Gong. ”

"No courtesy." Gong Jichang waved his hand, "Master Ma, the main culprit in the murder case is General Ben, you can try it how you want." ”

"Yes, yes......" Ma Wenling nodded incessantly, then walked back to the public court, sat upright, and said to the catcher, "Show General Gong a seat." ”

"Yes, sir." A catcher quickly answered, quickly moved a chair, and asked Gong Jichang to sit down.

"Cai Yida, what evidence do you have to accuse General Gong of murder?" Ma Wenling slapped the shocked wood heavily.

"My lord, I have physical evidence." Bucktooth Cai lay on the ground, he didn't dare to come out, he knew that this time was over, the magistrate and Gong Jichang knew each other, and Gong Jichang's official son was much older than the magistrate.

"Bring physical evidenceβ€”" Ma Wenling shouted. So, Luo Changming asked the Cai family's family to carry three corpses in.

"Excuse me, autopsyβ€”" Mr. Ma said.

"Yes." He walked up to the three corpses, crouched down, uncovered the cloth, and carefully verified them, and then reported that the deceased had fought fiercely before his death, and that the cause of death was a single stab......

"Oh, I see." Ma Wenling let him retreat and said to Bucktooth Cai, "Cai Yida, you state the facts. Remember not to fabricate the facts, otherwise the official will not be able to help you. ”

was warned by Ma Wenling, and Buck Ya Cai had no choice but to tell the truth as it was: "My lord, here's the thing, I took a few family members to rush ...... in Heitian."

The truth is revealed, Gong Jichang is not at fault, although he killed three people, but he is in legitimate defense, and he does not have to pay for his life if he kills someone. In the end, Ma Wenling ruled that all the expenses of the deceased should be borne by Cai Yida, and the paddy fields sold were executed according to the agreement, and Gong Jichang was acquitted.

Since the county government has ruling, it is useless to continue to appeal, Luo Ya Cai wrote the title deed on the spot and handed it over to Gong Jichang, although he is not satisfied, but he still has to follow the law.

After coming out of the yamen, the eggplant beaten by the bucktooth Cai Rushuang wilted. He got 600 taels of silver, and he could also send the family of the deceased, which was really "losing his wife and soldiers". Since then, Bucktooth Cai has not dared to be a villager in the fish and meat village of Longxipu Village.

Gong Jichang took the title deed and said to Luo Tai with a smile: "Dad, you go back, farm well, if you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me." ”

"Yes, yes......" Luo Tai was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and he got fifty acres of paddy fields at once, and he finally had his own land.

After staying in Longxipu for a few days, Gong Jichang received an order from Xi Qitian to lead troops to garrison Chenyuan Prefecture and command two battalions on land and water to prevent the "rebels" in Guimao County from invading.

The Blue Wolf Army led by Wang Haiyang has coveted the grain and grass base of 100,000 Qintian for a long time, and wants to capture it as a springboard for Guimao County to take Guimao County in the west, join the "Xian Tongyi Army", and confront the imperial court, but he underestimated the regimental training armed forces in Rulin County.

King Kang Wang Haiyang sent 1,000 elite soldiers and more than 1,000 bandits, set off from Nanyue, and after entering Jingnan County, he traveled day and night.

When the rebels were still more than 200 miles away from Yuechengling, the scouts who went to Qintian detected it, and the garrison there immediately flew pigeons to spread the news, telling Gong Jichang who was stationed in Sidu about the situation.

After receiving the battle report, Gong Jichang, who was stationed in Chenyuan Prefecture, immediately ordered 300 infantry troops, 300 cavalry first, and 400 firearms teams as backups, and personally led the troops to Qintian Mountain.

In order to prevent the "Blue Wolf Alliance" in Guimao County from sneaking up on the base camp, Gong Jichang asked the black marshal to stay, and the consulate was stationed, telling the black marshal not to go out of the city to fight if the enemy attacked.

More than 80 miles of mountain road, the soldiers of the Jingyi battalion marched rapidly, and arrived at the foot of Qingfengling Mountain in less than an hour, and more than 500 people who were garrisoned saw that the large army was coming, and hurriedly opened the village to greet them.

Gong Jichang didn't have time to rest, so he asked the garrison leader: "How far is the rebel army from the Jade Girl Peak?" ”

The garrison responded: "Back to the general, there are still thirty miles." ”

Gong Jichang said: "You go and light the wolf smoke and send a war alert to the surroundings!" ”

"Yes, General!" After the garrison finished speaking, he left the camp.

The soldiers rested on the spot, ate some dry food and water, and suddenly a heavy fog rose on the top of the mountain, and the visibility was less than 30 meters.

Gong Jichang shouted: "Oh no, the fog is too big, and the wolf smoke can't come out!" ”
