Chapter 56: Fakes
Sima Tong smiled, "Yes, isn't it stupid not to eat the meat that is sent to your mouth?" ”
Sun Ming rubbed his chin and pondered.
Suddenly, he clapped his hands, pointed to Sima Dao, and said excitedly.
"No matter what tricks he plays, we will let him fake it, don't forget, we have a big backer behind us."
"If other officials invade the country for no reason, it is treason, but we can legalize it, and this is not a lot of use, and we are sorry for the trust of His Majesty the Emperor."
That night, at the banquet, Sun Ming and Sima Tong took turns pouring wine on Yan Rou and coaxed him to write a letter of recital, the content of which was that Yan Rou felt incompetent, resigned from the Quanzhou County Order, and was managed by Sun Ming.
Overnight, the soldiers were asked to go to Luoyang with letters, and they would plan as soon as they came out.
Sun Ming had been feasting Yan Rou for the next few days, and Yan Rou, who had no idea, thought that she had gained Sun Ming's trust.
Although he was anxious, he didn't dare to refuse Sun Ming's kindness, and could only say many times that he wanted Sun Ming to see the prosperity of Quanzhou with his own eyes.
Sun Ming dragged it out again and again, and on the ninth day, it was no longer a banquet to greet Yan Rou, but a pair of wooden handcuffs.
Luoyang has already agreed to Yan Rou's resignation, and now that he is white, Sun Ming will naturally not be polite to him.
It wasn't until he was escorted in front of Sun Ming that he understood that he had been tricked, but it was too late.
After an interrogation, Yan Rou, who was tortured to the point of being inhuman, confessed.
At the same time, Sun Ming asked Han Zhong to lead 5,000 men, and in this way, he occupied Quanzhou without blood.
Liu and a few people were in a hurry, not only did they not deceive Sun Ming, but they put Quanzhou in, and the most important thing was that he Sun Ming was legal and allowed by the imperial court.
Not only that, but their Youzhou Liu family's prestige and power are now gradually declining, under the advice of Sima Tong.
Sun Ming kept recruiting other Guangyang officials, and several county orders fell to Sun Ming.
Today's Guangyang County has fallen into the hands of Sun Ming, and they are helpless, he Liu He is just a county magistrate of Jixian County.
In terms of intellectual strategy, Liu He was not the opponent of Sun Ming and Sima Tong at all.
As the saying goes, either go crazy in despair or die in despair.
He Liu He, who claimed to be a relative of the Han family, would never surrender to Sun Ming, he sent a number of assassins to assassinate Sun Ming, but none of them succeeded in getting close to Sun Ming, Li Meng was not a vegetarian.
This very stupid decision gave Sun Ming a reason to play another book and murder the imperial court officials, Liu He was deprived of his position and imprisoned.
In just two months, Liu He defeated the entire Guangyang, and his family fled to Yuyang County.
Wei You, the Taishou of Yuyang County, was also Liu Yu's subordinate, and he took in Liu He's family.
In the end, it was his father-in-law Zhou Tao who interceded on his behalf, and Sun Ming released Liu He, but demoted him to a commoner.
Sun Ming annexed most of Guangyang, and in a good mood, he took Li and his family and friends to the 'good township' in Zhuo County for a vacation and rest.
At this time, it was already November, the weather was cold, and ordinary people had nothing to do, so they generally did not go out.
But he encountered a funny thing here, Sun Ming took Li Meng and a few people out to visit the market.
When I passed by the largest restaurant in the area, I found that it was actually full of people in three circles and three circles outside.
Out of curiosity, Sun Ming found a fellow countryman and asked.
"Fellow, what's going on here, why is it so lively?"
Ordinary people don't have much entertainment in their daily lives, so they like to talk about these gossips the most.
The old man glanced at Sun Ming, and saw that Sun Ming was dressed gorgeously, and there were several big men by his side.
He politely replied, "Childe doesn't know, our parents in Zhuojun, Sun Ming, Sun Taishou have come to our good hometown." ”
"Now that people are inside, everyone is looking forward to taking a look."
Sun Ming was stunned when he heard this, didn't he just stand here, when would he be separated?
"The kid is a foreigner, as far as I know, that Sun Ming is just a weak crown, how can he be so loved by everyone?"
The old man was not happy when he heard this, and his face suddenly fell, "Childe, I have no problem with you scolding the current saint, but if you say a bad word about Sun Taishou, then I will not be happy with the old boy." ”
The old man's words, the arrogance in his eyes, seemed to be accountability. Immediately attracted the attention of a circle of people around, and surrounded Sun Ming and several others.
Sun Ming was immediately happy, I can't scold myself?
"Okay, okay, kid apologize here."
The old man looked at Sun Ming with disgust, "Tell your boy, you can't talk nonsense in the future, you will be beaten, go away, go away." ”
With Sun Ming's apology, the crowd of onlookers also dispersed.
Sun Ming was helpless, and he couldn't really compare himself with these people who loved him.
Turned his head to look at the restaurant.
"Li Meng, go, come in with me and meet this fake Sun Ming."
Sun Ming walked into the restaurant with a few people in full view, and the two guards downstairs couldn't stop them at all.
The crowd of onlookers became even more agitated, and many young and strong people followed, trying to stop Sun Ming and the others.
Sun Ming walked down the stairs to the second floor, the noisy sound of joy was endless, and he followed the sound to a private room.
Many guards in front of the door wanted to stop Sun Ming's footsteps, but they were all knocked down by Li Meng with one punch.
Sun Ming opened the door, and for a while, everyone inside looked at him.
A white-headed old man got up and walked over, his face was angry, "Who are you, so bold, I don't know that General Sun is here?" ”
This old man is a big landlord in Liangxiang, and all the people in the house are local landlords.
They all wanted to tie up with Sun Ming, and they also sent a lot of money to the fake Sun Ming.
When the old man saw Sun Ming's appearance, his expression changed from anger to shock, and he glanced back at the fake Sun Ming again.
The two looked seven points similar, and he was stunned for a while, unable to react.
Sun Ming took out a bronze official plaque that read 'Thief General' Sun Ming, which is the proof of identity.
"This official is Sun Ming, I heard that you are receiving me, so I came up to take a look."
"Why didn't you start before I arrived?"
When everyone heard this, they very consciously let go to both sides and let the two Sun Ming confront each other.
Sun Ming walked up to the fake with his head held high.
"Did you know that impersonating a court general is a capital offense?" Sun Ming's face was deep, and his face was gloomy.
When the fake Sun Ming saw the real thing, he was already so frightened that his head broke out in a cold sweat, and his hands and feet were cold, so there was still a way to confront him.
He was just a swaggering little gangster, but he happened to look similar to Sun Ming, so what kind of knowledge did he know.
When everyone saw the reaction of the two, they knew that the person they received was actually a fake, and they were angry for a while.
Otherwise, considering Sun Ming's presence, they would probably kill that fake alive.
Seeing that he couldn't even speak, Sun Ming didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, and asked the guards outside to escort the fake goods to the county office.
The fake was pulled out, and Sun Ming was warmly invited by everyone present.
Sun Ming saw that he couldn't refuse, so he stayed to drink and have fun with everyone.
Not long after, Chen Mi, the county commander of Liangxiang, hurried over, "The crime of the lower official deserves death, and someone in his jurisdiction dares to pretend to be a general." ”
"Pay more attention to public security in the future, come, and drink with the official."
Seeing that Sun Ming did not blame him, Chen Mi breathed a sigh of relief, and sat opposite Sun Ming in flattery, drinking with Sun Ming.
At first, Chen Mi was still a little restrained, and saw that Sun Ming was talking and laughing with the villagers.
is so close to the people and generous, and it is also open-minded.
"My lord, there are still a few good wines in the Xiaguan Mansion, if you don't mind, the Xiaguan will personally send it to the adult's mansion after you go back."
When Sun Ming heard this, he waved his hand and said, "If you have wine, you should get drunk today, bring it here, let everyone taste it." ”
"Yes, yes, the lower official will send someone to get it."
It wasn't until late at night that Sun Ming walked out of the restaurant surrounded by everyone.
I never thought that there were still a lot of onlookers downstairs, and the old man who had asked Sun Ming was also there.
After the old man saw Sun Ming, he knelt in front of Sun Ming with an arrow step.
"The old man collided..."Before the old man finished speaking, he was helped up by Sun Ming.
"Don't worry about it, it's Sun Ming who is not serious and frightens the old man."
Turning his head to Li Meng, he said, "Take the money." ”
Sun Ming took the money and handed it to the old man, "This is not a compensation for Sun Ming, please accept it." ”
After saying that, despite the old man's refusal, he forced it into his hand and left.
Happy times are always short-lived, and Sun Ming, who has been playing for more than ten days, returns to Zhuoxian to continue his work.
Now that Sun Ming now has three counties in his hands and his strength has increased greatly, he wants to continue to expand his territory and occupy Youzhou.
On this great occasion, in the first month of the third year of Zhongping, a large-scale outbreak of plague broke out across the country, and in February, Luoyang Nangong Yuntai caught fire, and the fire lasted for half a month before it was extinguished.
Even if the world is devastated, Emperor Ling of Han still decided to increase taxes to repair his palace.
For a while, the world began to stir again, the people were displaced, groups of thieves rose together, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party that had just been quelled were ready to move again.
