Chapter 170: A Sword Stabs You to Death
Pulling the tiger skin to make a big banner can scare people, and several old people in the hall, including the old gang leader Liu, are not in the mood to drink tea, when they see that the young man who should be the soldier Cao of Longyan County who joined the army walked into the Fish and Dragon Gang, and immediately felt cold, this son's appearance and bearing are not bad, but how can there be a handsome scholar like Longjing County? What's more, the young brother was obviously in a hurry to bring it to people, alone, it is estimated that he is doing some work such as knife and pen copywriting in the Yamen, and there are still some ink stains on his hands that have not had time to be cleaned off, and the young soldier Cao joined the army and saw Xu Gongzi who was peaceful, and he didn't lower his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, slowly sat down, and asked for a cup of hot tea with the Fish and Dragon Gang with a smile to warm his stomach, Liu Lao Gang Leader sighed in his heart, it seems that the young white-headed Xu Gongzi is not a hot person in Lingzhou How to speak, otherwise a small official of Longyan County will never be so lazyγ
Xu Beitong sat on the side with Xu Fengnian, blew a sip of tea mist, frowned, and said, "Can't you let me be clean for a while?"
He took the initiative to come to Longjing County, Lingzhou as an official this time, and there were few people in the know, not to mention Lingzhou Mu, and even Li Gongde, the economic envoy, did not get the slightest hint of popularity. Just brought the official seal, wrapped in the official uniform, and went straight to Longjing County single-handedly, Longyan County Military Office did not make waves, mistakenly thinking that it was a high and low seed grandson, and there were also a few temptations made by the head snake, all of which were understated and resolved by Xu Beitong, and then immediately marginalized. Moreover, there were 1,000 elite cavalry who were secretly transferred into Longjing County without warning, which made many forces uneasy, who still had the heart to get to the bottom of a soldier's joining the army. The main general of the cavalry army is surnamed Wang Mingzhi, and the deputy general is called Hong Shuwen, and their official positions are exceptionally higher than ordinary captains, and they can be regarded as the noble characters in the Northern Liang Army who are not well-known but suddenly hold the military talisman. This elite cavalry army never interferes with the local military and government, and the entire Longyan County guesses and guesses, and it is only regarded as General Zhong Hongwu, who attaches great importance to the king of Beiliang and returns to the field, in order to show the general's grace undiminished.
Xu Fengnian laughed in a low voice: "The words of complaint are put in the stomach first, Xi Liang told you about the matter?"
Xu Beitong said calmly: "What's so strange about the collusion of local forces, but you are also unscrupulous, do you want to use me, a soldier, to join the army as bait and fish out the Zhong family? β
The old gang leader Liu only saw the two young people whispering, looking at their unchaotic bearing, saying that it was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and those who were ignorant before they were deeply involved in the world were not afraid, and they all felt a little emotionally about their prosperous age, the foundation of the Fish and Dragon Gang today, how could it not be spelled out with the old brothers in countless desperate situations but in the midst of talking and laughing, the old gang leader subconsciously turned his head to look at his granddaughter, did he really want to put this burden on her shoulders? Wouldn't it hurt her to even want the happiness of a woman's husband and children? Liu Lao Gang Leader is not a pedantic elder who values sons over daughters, but it is precisely because he loves his granddaughter from the bottom of his heart that he is reluctant to let Liu Nirong embark on his own path.
The teacup resting on the table began to tremble, and the tea swayed slightly.
Old Liu Lao Gang Leader and several old men who had been fighting in gangs for a long time all looked solemn, and the little lieutenant who was kicked into the hall by the woman in Tsing Yi had already been carried to the backyard to heal his injuries. Previously, the old gang leader tried to let the gang evacuate from the back door and go to the relatives' houses in the countryside to avoid the limelight, but when he went out, he saw a bunch of strong men from Honghumen blocking the street entrance, and he was determined to catch them all and uproot the Fish and Dragon Gang from Longjing County. This kind of unwritten rules of the rivers and lakes is more important than the national law in the eyes of the old man, but today's new gang sects, acting more ruthlessly than one another, how to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, Longjing County has had five or six tragic cases in the past five years, and the government will investigate it afterwards, bring a few boxes of silver to the son or favorite concubine of the official master, and close the case with personal vendettas, no matter how many dozens of murders you have, you only need one or two scapegoats with black pots to resist your fate, and those few scapegoats who have received huge sums of money in their families are regarded as heroes and heroes in the rivers and lakes, even before being beheaded, he was also arrogant, shouting that Lao Tzu was still a good man for eighteen years, which could provoke the enthusiasm of countless young Jianghu people around the execution ground, which made Liu Lao's gang leader, who had adhered to the rules for most of his life, feel very strange, and then some inevitably discouraged.
There are more than a dozen healthy horsemen who directly broke into the Fish and Dragon Gang martial arts hall, and there are more than 100 saber sharps with bright armor behind them.
Yilu Lieutenant Tang Ziyi sat on horseback, condescending, probably because he felt that he was qualified to look at the world in Longjing County, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, his eyes directly skipped over Liu Xu's old guys, only a slight pause on the woman in Tsing Yi and the white-headed man, and then looked straight at Liu Nirong who was standing at the door, his eyes were cold and hidden in the fierceness of the man's view of the stunner, Tang Ziyi was not the roe deer-headed rat-eyed generation, burly, was the second generation of the Jiangmen of Beilianggen Zhengmiaohong, went to the border of Youzhou, and fished out the military merits that outsiders did not know whether they were true or falseγ Such a successful general, if he wants to accept a miscellaneous woman as a concubine, the Fish and Dragon Gang should be happy, and he has refused repeatedly and politely, really when he Tang Ziyi is a mud bodhisattva without fire! If you are from Tang, your Fish and Dragon Gang will not be the leading gang in Lingzhou, and the worst can be the king and hegemony of Longjing County under the nose of General Zhong, with my Captain Yi and the Tang family to support your father-in-law Liu Xu, who dares to be disrespectful to you? If you don't eat and drink in the toast, you will blame Tang Ziyi for letting you have no eggs under the nest of the Fish and Dragon Gang.
Tang Ziyi glanced at the woman in Tsing Yi, and heard the guards say that this girl has some Taoism, or it is okay, first go to prison according to the charge of the previous assassin, and then slowly knock off the sharp qi and grind off the edges and corners, and then enter the room with Liu Nirong, the corners of Tang Ziyi's mouth are upturned, he doesn't like those soft and weak women in the Qinglou, and he can't stand the whipping, which always makes him the captain of Yilu not interested, only Liu Nirong, a woman who has practiced martial arts, Tang Ziyi knows that it is delicious, this kind of unique waist of a girl with beautiful legs, can really make a man ascend to the immortal in bedγ Tang Ziyi did not leak anything, he was deeply impregnated by his family background, he did not give people the bad feeling of bullying, he gently clamped the horse's belly, and stepped forward a few steps of the war horse under his crotch, Tang Ziyi said loudly: "Ben will act according to the law, who dares to stop it? ! I heard that the soldiers of this county Cao joined the army here, and I will see it when I come out of the ranks!"
Chen Xiliang chuckled beside Xu Fengnian and said, "Good food." β
Xu Fengnian sighed with emotion: "This is tricky. β
Xu Beitong slowly crossed the threshold and walked to the top of the steps, "In Xia Xu Beitong, I joined the army as a soldier of Longyan County ten years ago." β
Tang Ziyi said sharply: "Since you are an official of Beiliang, you should know that the Fish and Dragon Gang of the Langdao Fish and Dragon Gang Honghumen gathered a crowd to fight, and Liu Nirong and others injured people with weapons, how should they be dealt with according to the law?
Xu Beitong said calmly: "The matter of the Fish and Dragon Gang, the captain handled it decently, but my friend is a good citizen, after entering the martial arts hall, the second lieutenant used the knife for no reason, according to the military law of Beiliang, cancel the military status, and immediately behead him." The punishment is three levels above, and Captain Yi Lu happens to be among them, and he should also resign. β
Tang Ziyi smiled: "Is there a witness?"
Xu Beitong smiled, "More than 100 people from the Fish Dragon Gang could have testified, but since they are suspected of rioting people, they are not qualified." β
Xu Fengnian raised his horsewhip, "I am a good citizen with an innocent background, and I can testify." β
Tang Ziyi sneered: "Someone can prove that you are a gang of bandits of the Fish and Dragon Gang. β
Xu Fengnian remembered that he was stunned by the blue bird outside the door before, and frowned: "Those few are the Honghumen gang, what qualifications do they have?"
Tang Ziyi said indifferently: "They have never taken half a step into the Fish Dragon Gang Martial Arts Hall, let alone participated in the brawl. β
Liu Nirong walked up to Xu Fengnian, who was still talking, "It's almost, you and I are not friends." Today's events, most of them will not be able to repay in the future, I only hope that if you have a relationship, you can protect Wang Dashi and these gangs for me. Liu Nirong was grateful. β
Xu Fengnian didn't open any pot and mentioned which pot, "You don't really plan to be a bed warmer for this Yilu captain, right?"
Liu Nirong gritted her teeth and said, "Believe it or not, before I kill him, I will stab you to death with a sword?"
Xu Fengnian tightened the horsewhip, revealing a little trance.
Xu Beitong smiled at this time: "Captain Tang, since this is the case, there is no one within the gate of the Fish Dragon Gang who is qualified. β
Tang Ziyi was confident, and he didn't mind playing slowly with cats and mice, "Oh? β
Xu Beitong said calmly: "I have evidence that Captain Tang participated in the case of extermination, during which nine of your personal soldiers took off their armor and killed seventeen people with knives. It's just that I didn't have time to present the evidence to the county guard. β
Tang Ziyi laughed heartily on the horse, and slowly drew the knife: "Then do you think there is still a chance?"
Xu Beitong asked rhetorically: "Do you want to kill people and kill people?" Do you know what kind of crime you should be guilty of killing a soldier Cao to join the army for no reason?"
Tang Ziyi pulled out the Beiliang knife on his waist, "How could this general know the law and break the law, it's just that the soldier Cao joined the army and died in the chaos of bandits, and Tang may personally send a pension silver tael later, and your clan will be grateful to this general for killing everyone in the Fish Dragon Gang." β
Xu Beitong shouted angrily: "You dare?!"
Xu Fengnian reminded in a low voice on the side: "Tangerine, your acting skills are really bad, at this moment, you have to be so angry that your lips are blue, and your legs are weak with fear." Especially the voice with some trills is like words. β
Xu Beitong looked at Captain Yilu, and said in a voice like a thin mosquito: "You can do it, you come?"
"By the way, do you really have proof?"
"No, I do know the truth, but the evidence, no. β
"Your acting skills are average, and your ability to dig holes is good. β
"Don't delay me from fishing. β
β......β
Standing aside, Liu Nirong, who listened to her ears without missing a word, didn't understand what was going on in this world.
