Chapter 400: The Luoyin Rebellion (End)
"My lord, my lord, it's not good, none of the people sent to investigate last night have come back!"
Early the next morning, Luo Lao was in the mansion, lying on a woman's lap on his back, and asked the other two women to rub their heads and shoulders.
After drinking last night and late at night, I returned to the house, and this time, not only did I have a headache, but my back was also full of sour vinegar.
However, it didn't wait long for Luo Lao to enjoy.
The servant's words immediately made Luo Lao's whole person feel excited, and he didn't care about the maid's rubbing hands, and quickly got up.
"What did you say?"
Luo Lao's fat old face, which was full of fat, was no longer calm as usual at the moment, and he panicked all the things he had before.
If he heard Bai Yan's words last night, Luo Lao was vaguely uneasy in his heart.
Then the disappearance of Hu Cong, who went to investigate the news at this moment, made Luo Lao vaguely aware that things were far from being as simple as they imagined.
"Father!"
"Father!!"
At this time, there were two middle-aged men outside the door, who also appeared in a panic, and after entering the study, they hurriedly came to Luo Lao.
"Father, something happened, and none of the people from Fan's and Tao's side came back last night."
Luo Li bowed to his father, his face was pale at the moment, and his eyes were extremely flustered.
And under the gaze of Luo Li and Luo Yi brothers, Luo Lao's distracted pupils suddenly shook and slowly raised his head.
"Not good! Yesterday, Bai Yan deliberately let you know that he had been outside the city! ”
Luo Lao said.
After the same cause and effect, Luo Lao had already come back to his senses, and it was only at this time that he realized that Bai Yan sent the maid to the official mansion to check the corpse yesterday, and he deliberately revealed the news to them, and his purpose was to let them send people out of the city.
After all, in the city, as long as those people are hiding and there are officials as internal responses, Bai Yan can't find anyone at all.
"Not good!!"
Luo Lao got up suddenly, his face became more and more pale, as the old clan of Luoyin City, after Luo Lao became the head of the family, he felt that he was in danger of exterminating the clan for the first time.
"Father means that our people have all been arrested by Bai Yan?"
When Luo Li and Luo Yi heard their father's words, their faces changed greatly, and they glanced at each other, their eyes full of fear.
"Father, what are we doing now?"
"Yes, father, if it is really the person who Bai Yan grabbed us, it won't be long, in case those people can't keep their mouths"
Luo Li and Luo Yi looked at Luo Lao one after another, and their tones were full of worries about the future.
Although those servants are all servants of the clan and can be trusted, who knows if someone will be the first to withstand the torture after a long time.
"You two go to Fan's and Tao's places immediately!"
Luo Lao heard the words of his two sons, and between gasping, his eyes finally became firm, and he stretched out his hand to point at his two sons.
"Let the Fan clan and the Tao clan inform the other clans that when Bai Yan dealt with the looting and selling in Yanmen, all the clans were killed by Bai Yan, implicating countless clans! At present, if Luo Yin doesn't want to die, he will spread the news, and say that as soon as Bai Yan arrived in the city yesterday, dozens of people disappeared! ”
Luo Lao commanded sharply.
"Huh? Father, since then, if Bai Yan imprisons people in official uniforms, isn't this move in vain? ”
Luo Yiman looked at his father in puzzlement, not understanding why he spent such a great experience at such a critical time and did a futile thing.
Luo Li, as the eldest son, although he didn't ask, he didn't leave, but looked at the eyes of his middle brother and his father, and he knew that he was also very puzzled.
"You two, hey!"
When Luo Lao heard this son's inquiry, his words were full of hatred for iron and steel, and he even wanted to stomp his feet.
"Those servants are missing, no one knows where Bai Yan will go, how will he deal with those people, in case of torture, those people will not last long, what we want now is that no matter what, we must let Bai Yan bring people to the official mansion, there are our people in the official mansion, whether it is the news of those people, we can be clear, if Bai Yan is tortured in the official service, we can spread rumors, saying that Bai Yan is trying to solve the case and frame others."
After Luo Lao finished speaking, he looked directly at the two sons in front of him.
Since he was a child, Luo Lao has taught these two two sons, but they are all other trivial things, and now, he just took this opportunity to inform his two sons that they are the most powerful in Luoyin, what kind of means are they.
"Understood, father!"
When Luo Li heard his father's words, his eyes lit up, and the fear on Fang Cai's face disappeared, and he nodded at his father with reverence.
Luo Yi was slow to react, but he quickly understood what his father meant.
"That's right! As long as people come to Luoyin City, we have enough ways to make those people grit their teeth and not say anything, and then make a big deal and make trouble in Xianyang! Even if it is Bai Yan, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear the gossip, and he can only release him without evidence! ”
Luo Yi looked at his father with a happy face, full of admiration, and then saw his brother leaving, and quickly turned around and followed behind.
Inside the study.
Luo Lao watched his two sons leave, and he also closed his eyes and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Yan, Bai Yan!
You are indeed more powerful than ordinary people, as young as you, the old man has never seen such a resourceful person, you are the first.
However, Luoyin is the foundation of our warrior clan after all.
You Bai Yan, you can't control it!
If you dare not hand over people to the government now, those people will be missing people in the future.
And the old man will never let you investigate this matter so easily.
"Someone, prepare a carriage, go visit the city order!"
Luo Lao took a deep breath and opened his eyes, his eyes were full of calmness, as if he had seen Bai Yan's ending.
Right now, he still needs to go to the city order Zhang Guan and let Zhang Guan do something.
Inside Luoyin City.
In Bai Yan's mansion, he knelt behind the wooden table and stretched out.
Bai Junzhu came up with a wooden plate and a bowl of chicken soup, although there is no shortage of fish in Luoyin City next to the Weishui River, but because many people have drowned recently, it is better not to eat fish recently.
Ordinary people eat three meals a day, basically vegetarian soup, either boiled beans to eat, or corn.
As for chicken, people rarely eat it, and even the vast majority of people may not have the opportunity to eat it in their lifetime.
After all, in addition to paying taxes, it is good to have food and clothing for a year's harvest, and if you can save some money, it is more used for clothing and daily necessities, such as salt, which are a lot of expenses.
And a chicken can be exchanged for more than three or four hundred catties of rice millet!
This is a price that the people are not willing to pay for a single meal.
As for wild animals, they are lucky to be able to get them, but there are also taboos in this, because usually places with more prey have often been turned into hunting grounds, and if the people inadvertently crack it, they will often violate the Qin law, and they will face harsh punishments later.
Now under Bai Yan's name, there are two hunting grounds.
However, they are all near Pingyang and Yongcheng, when Bai Yan became the second general of the Bai family, those Ying clan relatives gave Bai Yan and were hunted by the Bai family, Bai Yan did not go to see it.
"General, here's the list of people caught last night!"
A man in a cloth robe hurried to the study, and then came to Bai Yan to make a salute and handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Bai Yan.
"Okay, let the soldiers rest in turns, and I'll go and ask those people in an hour."
Bai Yan nodded.
When he opened the bamboo slip in his hand, he saw that the names of the people he had arrested last night were written on it, and he breathed a sigh of relief, those scholars were really not what he expected, and after learning that he investigated, he would definitely have a stable and uneasy mentality.
"No!"
The cronies saluted Bai Yanji, and then turned and retreated.
"Did you deliberately let those people know that you came to Luoyin that day?"
Bai Junzhu knelt beside Bai Yan, looking at the name on the bamboo slip in Bai Yan's hand, and looked at Bai Yan with beautiful eyes full of amazement.
At this moment, Bai Junzhu recalled the scenes of Ruori, as well as the appearance of those scholars who did not leave last night, and then looked at the bamboo slips in Bai Yan's hand in front of him, where he didn't know the cause and effect, and his heart was really amazed by Bai Yan's intelligence.
"Luoyin City is the foundation of those scholars, I only Dao Luoyin, if you want to have a chance to win when you play with them, you can only wait and see what happens, let them show their feet, only in this way can you have a chance to win."
Bai Yan chuckled softly.
"This is the case with leading troops to fight, and so is the battle between power and conspiracy!"
Bai Yan looked at Bai Junzhu, and when he saw Bai Junzhu's true appearance, he couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Things went even more smoothly than he imagined, and the ghost he saw in the middle of the mountain had been determined to be done by an acquaintance in the village, which undoubtedly saved a lot of trouble, and also saved a lot of steps for the review and questioning of the meeting.
"I'll ask Miss Xu to help you change the medicine later!"
Bai Junzhu looked at the young man beside him, his beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, but when he saw that the young man's shoulders were sluggish when he drank chicken soup, he knew that the young man's injuries were still painful.
"Hmm!"
Bai Yan nodded.
After a while, after eating and drinking, Bai Yan, with the help of Master Xu, put on the herbs on the wound on his shoulder, put on his official uniform, and took Jue Ben with him, and prepared to examine those people.
But what Bai Yan didn't expect was that before he could leave, he saw Bai Ping running in a hurry.
"Yan, it's not good, the city is full of talk about you at the moment!"
Bai Ping gasped, came to Bai Yan, and told Bai Yan the news that was spreading in the city at this time.
In the study, Bai Yan heard Bai Ping's words and frowned.
"Those people are trying to make a mess of Luoyin."
Bai Yan sighed.
Bai Junzhu and Xu Shi couldn't help but look at Bai Yan with some concern when they learned that the city was now full of Bai Yan's gossip.
"Yan, did you really arrest those people?"
Bai Ping originally just came to inform Bai Yan of the news in the city, but after seeing Bai Yan, looking at the bamboo slips on the wooden table, the whole person was stunned, and Bai Ping looked confused.
Only then did Bai Ping always think that it was the people in the city, and guessed without permission, after all, the missing person had nothing to do with Bai Yan, and last night, Bai Yan and he had been drinking in the mansion, how could they arrest someone.
But for now.
Bai Ping looked at the bamboo slip, but found it.
It seems that those people were really caught by Bai Yan!
Inside the study.
Bai Yan saw Bai Ping's appearance and nodded.
"I caught it!"
Bai Yan looked thoughtful, and then looked out of the study.
Now it has been determined that the stumbling blocks are the scholars in the city, and the methods of those scholars are also somewhat unexpected.
Inside Luoyin City.
"Look! How did those people get arrested? ”
"Those people are the people who are spreading all the rage today, and they are missing for some reason, and I heard that they are not missing, but because they were arrested by Captain Baijun."
"Huh? Why did the county lieutenant arrest them? ”
"I've heard that the people who drowned before were not drowned, but killed!"
On the street, the people who came and went looked at a man with a sword in his hand, and the men escorted by the Qin officials, and they all stepped aside, and then discussed in private.
Soon, as more and more people gathered on both sides of the street, among the people, there were some men who looked at each other and silently turned their heads and left.
A moment later.
In the prison dedicated to guarding criminals in Luoyin City.
Bai Yan, accompanied by Zhang Guan, the city commander of Luoyin City, as well as his cronies and Qin officials, soon saw the men who had been arrested.
"My lord, I am wronged! My lord! ”
"Your Excellency still wants to be our master!!"
More than a dozen men were in the cell, and when they saw the city order Zhang Guan, they hurriedly crawled forward and cried out that they were wronged.
However, at this moment, Zhang Guan saw these people in front of him, where did he dare to care.
"Does the city commander know these people?"
Bai Yanrao turned his head to look at Zhang Guan meaningfully.
"I don't know, Zhang Guan doesn't know these people!"
Zhang Guan hurriedly waved his hand and said, in the face of Bai Yan's inquiry, how could Zhang Guan dare to admit it.
can achieve the position of the city commander, Zhang Guan is already extremely mellow in terms of dealing with people, and he will not easily offend people, and there will be room for anything.
However, as Zhang Guan's words fell.
It's embarrassing.
It was clear that it was Zhang Guan who was asking about it, but the men who shouted grievances just now all quieted down, and they seemed to be more afraid of Bai Yan's 'misunderstanding' than Zhang Guan.
Looked at.
Bai Yan couldn't help but look at Zhang Guan again.
And Zhang Guan's forehead was already full of sweat, he lowered his head humbly, and the Adam's apple on his neck kept moving up and down.
A few breaths later.
Bai Yan just looked away, and when Zhang Guan saw this, he dared to take a big breath, and at this time Zhang Guan realized that his back was already covered with sweat.
"I just asked Qin Yi, I heard that Zhang Chengling has been written to Xianyang? He asked the neighboring county government to send officials to investigate. ”
Bai Yan turned his head to look around the cell and asked softly.
Zhang Guan breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly heard Bai Yan's inquiry, he became nervous again, his eyes were so weak that he didn't dare to look at Bai Yan, and hurriedly lowered his head.
"Tell General Bai, this is indeed the case! This matter is very important, Zhang Guan heard that General Bai was injured, and General Bai was tired, so he wrote to Xianyang and asked Xianyang officials to come to Luoyin to investigate! ”
Zhang Guan cautiously explained.
For his excuse, Zhang Guan felt that it was extremely perfect, and while completing Luo Lao's entrustment, he could also leave an impression of 'caring' here in Bai Yan.
Inside the cell.
When the men who were arrested heard Zhang Guan's words, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and they looked at each other quietly.
They are not ordinary people, so they naturally know that with Zhang Cheng's order to write to Xianyang, wait for the letter to be sent to the palace and handed over to the king, and then the king will find an opportunity to be in the main hall, so that the hundred officials can discuss who to send to Luoyin, and then the king will decide.
After these are done, the clerical officials of the Xianyang Palace must sign the order, and then the officials will convey the order to lead the county, and the county government of the neighboring county will send officials, and when the official does the affairs at hand and come to Luoyin, it will not only take a journey, but also have time to investigate.
It will take at least more than a month, or even longer.
Come to think of it.
The cloth-clad men who were being held in the cell knew it.
As long as they insist, the officials in Xianyang will investigate them at that time, and as long as there is no evidence, the scholars they follow will definitely let them all get out safely.
"Zhang Chengling has a heart, but what Zhang Chengling said is very important! What does it mean? ”
Bai Yan suddenly turned his head, looking curious, looking at Zhang Guan with his eyes.
Facing Bai Yan's eyes, Zhang Guan's forehead was full of sweat in an instant, but fortunately, he remembered Luo Lao's words
"General Bai, it was the murder, the previous butcher, slaughtering the neighbor's family, the matter is very important, but because the people in the village are all the words of the butcher, even the household registration man who killed the whole family also denied it, so Zhang Guan felt that something was wrong, so he wrote to Xianyang! asked the general to capture so many murderers, as the commander of Luoyin City, he could avoid suspicion, so he wrote to Xianyang together! ”
When Zhang Guan said this, he almost said it hard, and even his hands and feet trembled when he spoke.
However, accepting the benefits of Luo Lao before, Zhang Guan had to do it even if he was hard-headed.
Zhang Guan swore in his heart that after helping Luo Lao deal with this matter, he would not be able to offend Bai Yan again in the future, no matter what, even if he gave his wife and daughter to Bai Yan, he would let Bai Yan slowly lose his anger.
"And that matter?"
Bai Yan was a little curious when he heard Zhang Guan's words.
Regarding the matter of Zhang Guan Xianyang, Bai Yan is not a fool, he doesn't know why, and there is no other way than to sigh at the old fox who is behind the scenes.
Bai Yan knew that those Shi clans were planning to make a big deal out of it, not only to delay time, but also to let the Shi clan forces he had offended before because of the plundering and selling to get involved.
"Take me to see the man!"
Bai Yan looked at the man in the cell in front of him, and did not rush to torture.
Since those Shi clan forces want to make a big fuss, Bai Yan naturally doesn't mind, Bai Yan also hopes that the bigger the trouble, the better, only in this way will those forces who want to save these Shi clans not dare to act rashly.
As for Zhang Guan, the commander of Luoyin City in front of him, Bai Yan had already seen that this was a person who was entrusted with a relationship to become a city commander, and he didn't have any scheming.
Perhaps this is also the case that Zhang Guan has always been supported by the Luoyin clan.
The Luoyin Rebellion is over, and the next chapter is Tian Ding's appearance!
