Chapter 390: The True Murderer
Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi.
"What does Zhang Qing have in mind?"
Although he hated Zhang Anshi, he was soft-hearted.
But Zhu Di sometimes wants to see what Zhang Anshi is thinking about every day, because this guy will always have all kinds of crooked ideas.
And according to years of experience, these crooked ideas are really effective.
It's just that...... Time is running out, this is not the capital after all, Jinyiwei is here, and it is just a hundred households stationed, and the person behind the scenes is the head snake of the ground.
If there is a few months, Zhu Di is of course confident that he will dig three feet into the ground to find out the person, even ten days and half a month, he is sure.
But now it seems that it is almost impossible to capture a man in twelve hours.
After all...... These people, even in Nanchang, are only newcomers, and the other party is obviously an old fox, who has lived near Nanchang Mansion for a long time, and can be said to know the roots, not to mention that this person is so cautious, this person is in the dark, he and Zhang Anshi are in the light, and it is not easy to solve the problem in front of them.
Zhang Anshi said: "Move the rescuers." ”
"Move the rescuers?" Zhu Di said: "Where are the rescuers?" ”
"Ministers can scatter beans into soldiers."
Zhu Di glared at Zhang Anshi, Zhang Anshi immediately lowered his head stupidly, and hurriedly explained: "The minister is not joking, but ......... Ministers naturally have their own methods. ”
Zhu Di looked at him for a while, and finally said: "There is not much time, you act quickly, and you can't delay the military plane." ”
Zhang Anshi said: "Oh." ”
Saying that, Zhang Anshi actually began to act, and first said to Chen Daowen: "You order all the captains to set up cards at the ferries and official roads everywhere, and check all the idle people. ”
Zhu Di listened and couldn't help but say, "Is this feasible?" ”
Zhang Anshi shook his head: "Not feasible." ”
Zhu Di: "......"
Zhu Di was speechless in his eyes, as if to say, what are you doing?
Zhang Anshi said: "The other party is the head snake here, if you want to escape, there will always be a way, it is impossible to solve this problem by simply setting up a card, but ...... The minister does this, and there is also a reason for the minister. ”
Zhang Anshi is actually a little anxious, and now he is racing against time.
At that moment, he said to the captain on the side: "Fetch me pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." ”
After a while, someone brought pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Then Zhang Anshi picked up the pen and began to write hard.
After writing down dozens of words, he immediately handed them to Zhu Yong, and said: "Let people post it immediately, and it should be posted everywhere, and ...... Three days later, I, Zhang Anshi, will set up sheds in Tengwang Pavilion and other places, and everyone will only need to recite it, and they will distribute an egg for three days! Tell them there's enough eggs here. ”
said, and said to Zhang Xuan: "You take someone to buy eggs, how much can you buy." ”
Although this is very confusing, Zhang Xuan didn't think much about it, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes." ”
Qiu Song also seemed anxious on the side, and hurriedly said: "Big brother, big brother, what about me, what about me?" ”
Zhang Anshi didn't think about it and said: "You are more clever, and you are here to protect Your Majesty...... and me. ”
Qiu Song: "......"
Everyone listened to Xuanhu, and it was understandable that there were cards everywhere in front of them, but it was reciting and eggs in the back, which was a little incomprehensible.
Zhu Di's face was pulled down, and he lost 2.5 million taels of silver, and he still wanted to send eggs out?
Zhang Anshi saw that Zhu Di's face was not good, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister is here...... Do your best......"
Zhu Di only nodded: "As for Xu Qiren, you have to work harder and give me a good trial." ”
Zhang Anshi said: "Obey the order." ”
In fact, at this time, Zhu Di was already tired, running all the way, and only now did he stop, and someone prepared a bed for Zhu Di.
Although Zhu Di didn't understand what Zhang Anshi was doing, since he agreed to hand over the matter to Zhang Anshi, he didn't bother with it, so he went to bed.
It's just that although he is exhausted, everything comes to his heart, and he can't help but find it difficult to sleep, until a long time, he barely sleeps, but in the middle of the night, he listens to the sound of Zhu Di grinding his teeth, and says indistinctly: "My money!" ”
…………
"Hey......"
Someone sighed.
Deep in the house.
It's getting late.
The Taoist had a bitter face and found the old man.
"Woe to you."
The old man looked tired, and he lowered his head, as if he had been meditating here for a long time.
"After all, it's still a chess game, and the poor road persuaded you at the beginning, this organ may not be able to do everything! If you calculate too much, you will have more variables. Poor Dao heard that Xu Qi and others ...... You're all in jail, why are you still here, why don't you leave? ”
The old man still didn't look anxious, and said, "Don't worry." ”
The Taoist was anxious, frowning and saying, "The fire has burned the eyebrows." ”
The old man said slowly: "Xu Qi and the others will not speak for a while. What's more, if the old man wants to leave, he needs to retreat, there are still some things that need to be arranged and arranged, and there are some things that must be taken away. Not to mention that the brocade guards must have set up cards everywhere, so even if they have to leave, it will take some time to arrange and arrange. ”
"When will it be set up?"
"Seven or eight hours is enough."
The Taoist looked at the old man with emotion and said, "I knew today, why bother in the first place." ”
The old man said, "Are you going to kill me this day?" ”
The Taoist was just silent.
The old man muttered, "The times are not in my favor...... And it seems that they escaped this fate, and it seems that ...... It's really going to be ruined. ”
Dao said: "It's useless to talk about it now, you should think about the current situation." ”
The old man raised his head and looked at the Taoist stubbornly, his eyes were red, with a bit of horror: "Right now? What is there to think about at the moment? Do they have what it takes to imprison the old man? The old man dares to do such a thing, naturally there are other arrangements, after tomorrow, the old man escapes, the sky is high and the sea is wide, the dragon dives into the sea, and the tiger returns to the mountain, what can they do to me? It's just that...... Missing such a God-given opportunity is really a regret in life, and it is even more difficult to find such an opportunity than to ascend to the sky. ”
In the end, the old man was a little regretful.
Dao said: "Perhaps, this is the number of days." ”
The old man was a little excited, and said, "How many days? Days? If Heaven is so blind, then it is in line with the saint's edification and will perish? Is the country of ceremonies a land of barbarians?"
The Taoist does not speak.
The old man said, "It seems ...... I have to think of another way. ”
The Taoist said at this time: "Xu Qiren and others, trapped in the order, is it ......?"
"I can't take care of them anymore." The old man said: "Don't worry, they won't confess for a while, they are the ones who know the stakes." ”
The Taoist was silent.
The old man looked at the Taoist Daodao: "After today, where does the Taoist master plan to go?" ”
"There is no longer a poor road to worry about in the world, you might as well retreat to the mountains and never ask about worldly things."
The old man said, "I really envy you." ”
"You can do the same." ”
The old man shook his head: "The old man still has a breath, and he has to fight again." ”
The Taoist glanced at the old man deeply, and then was speechless.
The old man then sat silently, he seemed to be reminiscing about something, and only after half a sound did he say: "I really didn't expect that decades of time will pass in a flash, only pity people like me, lingering for a long time, but I still want to see the world fall to this point, I really hope that the world will return to its original appearance." ”
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if he were napping, or continuing to think of a good idea.
This sat until dawn.
At dawn in the morning, a beam of light suddenly bloomed in the dark sky, and although the first light of dawn was faint, it suddenly pierced the dark night sky with the crowing of the rooster.
In the morning light, accompanied by the sound of eager footsteps.
Someone came in a hurry, and this man leaned over, walked to the old man's side, and whispered, "Master, we have been contacted." ”
Only then did the old man open his eyes, looked up at this person, and said, "Are all the things packed?" ”
"It's packed up, the important things are all stored safely, and there are a lot of cars and horses to pack ......"
The old man bowed his head and continued, "What about the person who answered?" ”
"It's been arranged over there, the master can rest assured, it's already secure."
The old man nodded and sighed, "Don't leave anything out." ”
"Yes."
The old man slowly stood up and sighed: "I really never thought that when I was old, I would have to flee, but it's a pity, it's a pity." ”
He didn't know what to regret, whether it was a pity for his own chances, or a pity that the water thieves did not succeed.
It's just that in the words, the infinite regret is still revealed.
The old man thought for a moment and said, "The rest of the family has been arranged, right?" ”
"As the master commanded, it has been done."
The old man nodded, and said nothing more, but he was too old to tremble, and the servant had to hold him carefully.
The old man looked back at the Taoist who had accompanied him all night: "Today...... Say goodbye, he will definitely be able to see each other one day, and when the old man settles down, you can wait and see in the mountains, as long as the old man still has a breath, it is enough to lift a big thing. ”
After that, Ren Servant supported him, and slowly walked out of here, and saw a small sedan chair waiting here.
This mansion is outside the city of Nanchang, from here, you can see the city, the old man didn't say anything, got into the sedan chair.
Immediately, several people followed him.
This road, the road traveled, was not an avenue, nor a ferry, but a mountain road.
This road leads to Meiling, there are few people on weekdays, and you can take this road, all the way to Gao'an County, Ruizhou Prefecture, and when you get there, you can go to Jinjiang Ferry, and go down the river.
And this road has been abandoned for a long time, and no one pays attention to it on weekdays, even in the Nanchang Prefecture Chronicles and County Chronicles, this mountain trail has been largely forgotten.
Guarding here, is a local post officer, originally set up for the suppression of strongmen in the mountains, this official position, or from the Yuan Dynasty began to set up, the Ming Dynasty opened the country, naturally carried out the use, but this place is really inconspicuous, no one cares at all.
Halfway through, I saw an official, brought a few old officials to greet him, and saluted in front of the sedan chair.
The old man was napping in the sedan chair, and when he heard the voice, he opened the curtain and bowed his head to the poster: "It's okay." ”
"It's okay, the next official will give you a ride."
"Yes."
This Yicheng had a look of frustration on his face, as if he had deep feelings for the old man.
All the way to a river in the mountains, there is a small river, the small river is no longer known, and even in the dry season, the river often dries up, because of this, the original prosperous ferry, has long been abandoned.
But now it is in the flood season, so it is still feasible to sail on the river.
And here, however, there is already a man waiting here with several servants.
When the old man's sedan chair arrived, the old man got out of the sedan chair, and the man hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, with tears in his eyes.
The old man touched his head and said, "It's hard work." ”
The man wept with tears in his eyes, "I don't know when I will return." ”
The old man smiled and said, "Sooner or later, I will come back." ”
The man stood up, wiped his tears, and said: "The ship is ready and secure, it is the official ship of Ruizhou Mansion, and you can leave Nanchang Mansion along this waterway, and no one dares to check it when you leave Nanchang Mansion." The waterway here has long been deserted, and Jinyi Wei can't find it here. ”
The old man was not worried about Jinyiwei, but just explained: "Wait for the good students to lie down here and taste the gall, one day, the old man will come back." ”
As he spoke, he waited for the accompanying servants to carry the accompanying belongings onto the ship, but he still stopped here and gossiped with a few people.
When everyone saw that the old man was still behaving calmly, they also calmed down.
"Ruizhou Mansion ......"
"Don't worry, Ruizhou Mansion is ...... The old man has trustworthy people. The old man smiled calmly.
As he was talking, suddenly, from the upper reaches of the river, a ship suddenly came down at a rapid speed.
Someone shouted, "What kind of ship is that?"
When everyone saw it, their color changed, and they all looked at it.
But I saw that on the boat, the open fire was fighting, and it was actually a boatload of fish-uniformed captains.
The man who greeted the old man shouted, "Go first, I will resist here." ”
The post man was also startled, and actually pulled out the weapon he was carrying, and shouted, "These damn eagle dogs. ”
The old man looked stunned, he obviously never expected that here, there would be a brocade guard in ambush.
The people around him have made a posture to resist.
The old man's face was blank, as if he knew better than the others, once his whereabouts were discovered, then ...... It's all gone.
But at this moment, a group of people suddenly came out of the mountain, shouting: "Don't leave the thief." ”
On the river and in the mountains, they are all captains in brocade clothes.
The old man looked up at the sky.
At this time, it was already three poles above the sun, and the sky was clear.
He sighed and said, "How did it get to this point?" ”
The ships on the river finally intercepted the boats of the old man and others.
The lieutenant who poured out of the mountains soon fought with the oncoming post man, and after only one effort, the post man was cut off in the arm, he covered his wound, staggered, and did not forget to shout sadly and angrily: "Go, go quickly." ”
The people who came to greet the old man were furious: "Fight with them, fight." ”
The old man only smiled bitterly: "It's over, it's over." ”
A moment later, a captain arrived, and without waiting for a few people to resist, he was easily knocked down, and then the old man was directly knocked over.
At this time, he no longer had the graceful bearing of Fang Cai, and directly fell into the mud, and then his hands were cut back, tied firmly, and a ball of cloth was stuffed in his mouth.
At this time, someone stood up and said with a smile: "I finally found it, and I almost took it away in vain!" ”
…………
Xu Qi and Liu Rong, after a night of torture, were already covered in blood.
The two of them were dragged out like dead dogs, and the prison clothes on their bodies were more bloody than bloody.
Obviously, in order to force them to speak, the captains were in a hurry.
At this time, the two were sent to Zhu Di in their dying.
Zhu Di looked at the two of them coldly, his face was like an iceberg.
The corner of his eye glanced at Zhang Anshi on the side before he said, "Are you willing to say?" ”
Outside, the scorching midday sun had poured in through the paper window.
Zhu Di said: "What time is it?" ”
"Your Majesty, noon." A lieutenant replied.
Zhu Di listened, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Twelve hours are almost over.
Now it seems...... Maybe the other party has fled.
It's just that I have to look for it again, and I don't know how much effort it will take.
What's even more terrifying is that there will be many people who have already hidden all his money as the emperor.
And as for the person behind the scenes, it is even more of a big trouble!
Zhu Di and Zhang Anshi can't be in Jiangxi forever, and this person doesn't know what trouble will happen.
At this time, Zhu Di looked at Xu Qi and said, "Until now, are you still unwilling to speak?" ”
Xu Qi's weak voice was so light that it was almost inaudible: "The criminal minister doesn't know what His Majesty is talking about? ”
Fortunately, it was very quiet here, so Zhu Di still heard his words clearly.
Zhu Di said coldly: "I ask you where is the person behind the scenes?" ”
Xu Qi said: "The minister doesn't know, and the minister doesn't know who is behind the scenes, all of this is instructed by the minister, and the crime of the minister's death......"
Zhu Di said angrily: "You don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin." ”
Xu Qi smiled bitterly, but even a subtle expression made him feel endless pain, he tried hard to lift his face that was already unrecognizable, and said weakly: "The minister is about to die, why does Your Majesty say this?" ”
Zhu Di sneered: "Do you think I don't have the means to clean you up? ”
Xu Qi said: "I have already seen the means, and I can't hide it...... It's miserable, but the minister really has nothing to say. ”
Zhu Di's eyes swept over the murderous machine.
But soon, he fell silent.
Because he reacted immediately, Xu Qi's words clearly hoped to anger him, and then make him lose his mind and kill Xu Qi immediately.
can kill Xu Qi, where is there such a cheap.
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and said: "If you continue to torture, you will let every piece of skin and flesh on your body be given to me ......."
Xu Qi closed his eyes and looked like he was being slaughtered.
But at this time, Chen Daowen hurriedly came, and said with obvious excitement on his face: "Your Majesty, that person has been found." ”
Zhu Di listened, and his eyes widened.
After Xu Qi and Liu Rong heard this, they closed their eyes and waited for death, and suddenly showed a trace of panic.
Then...... They all tried to look behind them.
But I saw an old man, who was carried by someone in embarrassment.
At this moment, Xu Qi couldn't help but feel that the world was spinning, like being struck by lightning.
His eyes widened in disbelief and he muttered, "How...... How is it...... Possible...... How did things come to this. ”
Then Liu Rong roared even more sadly: "God is unkind, and he wants to put us in the place of death." ”
