It's nothing if the people in the city ran away, but the problem is that even the soldiers ran away, isn't it fatal!

Yan Zibin was completely dumbfounded.

Master Fang had a big heart, "Tang Zun, let them go, they can't beat it anyway, there is no difference between three hundred soldiers and two hundred soldiers." ”

"You know!" Yan Zibin glared at Master Fang, it was hard to say too much, so he could only stride into the meteor, almost trot, and returned to the county yamen.

Master Fang followed, and when the two of them arrived at the second hall, Yan Zibin immediately asked Master Fang to look around, and confirmed that no one was eavesdropping, and the county magistrate said boldly: "I, I sent someone out of the city to contact the governor." ”

"What?" Master Fang didn't seem to hear clearly, Yan Zibin had no choice but to repeat it again, Master Fang spun in an instant, and almost fell down.

"It's over, it's completely over. Zhu Gongzi didn't let us go, he could say that if he knew that we would break the contract in the morning, he would die at night. ”

Yan Zibin rolled his eyes, "That's Chaowendao, it's okay to die at night." The thieves are unlearned, and misinterpret the words of the saints. ”

Master Fang lamented helplessly, "Even if he misinterpreted the meaning of the saint, I didn't pay attention to what he meant. I'm going to buy a coffin, buy some paper money, and burn it quickly. Tonight, it's time for me to die...... By the way, and your Excellency, you should also prepare for the future. ”

Yan Zibin was so angry that he couldn't speak, what does the ghost know why this surnamed Fang is so afraid of Zhu Yiyuan?

Could he really know what he was going to do?

I have taken a full five hundred taels, and there will be brave men under the heavy reward, enough to buy dozens of lives, and they will definitely not disappoint me.

No, it won't!

……

"Zhu Gongzi, here is a letter from Rang I to the provincial capital, this is ten taels of silver."

Zhu Yiyuan swept the few pieces of black broken silver, looked at the letter again, and then said with a smile: "I am very happy that you came to report the news, I can reward you with these ten taels of silver...... But I want to know, who gave you this letter? Can you tell me about it? ”

The tall villager was still hesitating, and Wang Laoben on the side snorted: "They are uneasy and kind, they want to find a dog official to harm us, you don't tell the truth, and you want to help the dog official?" ”

After such a reprimand, the villager honestly said that he had received the account office request from the carriage and horse dealer and asked him to help deliver the letter.

"Where's the bookkeeper?"

"I'm back in Qishan Village."

Zhu Yiyuan nodded, "Call Huang Ying and ask him to bring a few rebel brothers to arrest people." ”

No one would be willing to be arrested, Zhu Yiyuan didn't believe that Yan Zhixian and Master Fang would be honest. Therefore, Zhu Yiyuan ordered his rebels to bring people out of the city and send them to Kong Fan's courtyard first.

Then, according to different villages, they were properly sent back, and at the same time, they were also instructed that this person should go back and be guaranteed by the whole village.

If he helped the court and did something against the rebel army, he would have to sit together.

At this time, Zhu Yiyuan is showing more and more methods, he will still be better to the people, but for the enemy, he will also be more vigilant, and the means will only be more cruel.

Armor protection is conducive to local control, and it is not impossible to use.

No, as soon as you use it, you will have a harvest.

Because the villagers guaranteed each other's surveillance, they couldn't leave the village, and they carried the letter of the county magistrate in their arms, and they couldn't send it out, so he could only give it to Zhu Yiyuan, so as not to make the whole family unlucky.

Zhu Yiyuan waited for most of the day, and Huang Ying did not come back.

This kid shouted very happily, why is it time to do things, so procrastinating, isn't it just to catch someone, why is it so slow?

Just when Zhu Yiyuan almost lost patience, Huang Yingcai came back out of breath, and it was not one person who came back with him, but three people.

After asking about the idea, he figured out that Yan Zibin felt that Master Fang was unreliable, so he found a scribe from a local area and asked him to go out of the city and send the news to the governor.

This scribe has a lot of property in his family, and he belongs to his own people who are worthy of trust.

Yan Zhixian didn't think wrong, the only problem is that the scribe is a little older, and from Laiwu to Jinan Mansion, he needs to cross Mount Tai and the Great Wall Ridge, and the road is too hard.

So he entrusted his brother-in-law to help him do it for him.

Five hundred taels became one hundred and fifty taels.

The problem is that this brother-in-law is also afraid of being tired!

He also quietly found a porter in the carriage and horse dealership, and the money naturally dropped to ten taels.

It's just running errands, and ten taels of silver is enough.

I haven't made that much in the past year.

And then there was an accident.

"You bastard! Why don't you go in person for such an important matter? The scribe scolded his brother-in-law.

The brother-in-law rolled his eyes, "Brother-in-law, what you said sounds good, why don't you go by yourself?" ”

The scribe said helplessly: "I'm old, and there are Taishan thieves on the road, don't you want your sister to be widowed?" ”

The brother-in-law couldn't help but scream, "Okay! I don't want my sister to be widowed? You just think your wife and nephew don't have a father? Okay, you're shameless. ”

Both of them complained all the way, and finally they took aim at the porter.

"Entrusted by men, loyal to people. I gave you silver, why didn't you send it honestly? ”

The tall villager didn't bother to look at these two, what shit, two cowards.

"If you spare your life, let me die for you? Tell you, this time my family can get twenty acres of land, and I won't do it for you! ”

……

The matter has been figured out, and it is really Yan Zibin's fault, this guy is not giving up!

I've already told you, Chaowen said, you can die at night.

You're looking for your own death, so don't blame me for being rude.

Just when Zhu Yiyuan was thinking about how to start, suddenly a guest came to visit.

There were two of them, and their retinue was left behind.

"I've seen Zhu Gongzi, and it's Laiwu's county order, Yan Zibin."

Master Fang next to him also said: "It is indeed our cousin, the younger one came over with the cousin to meet Zhu Gongzi, just to inquire, how many people can be arranged to go out of the city next?" ”

Zhu Yiyuan was interested, looked at the two of them, and suddenly smiled: "I don't want to ask about this, right?" Do you want to ask, has the letter for help been sent? ”

"It's over!"

Master Fang sat on the ground with his buttocks.

This time there is no help, I can only beg for pleasure.

Yan Zibin is an official in the end, and his psychological quality is much better than that of Master Fang, although he is also panicked, he still has a trace of reason.

"Zhu Gongzi, there is nothing else, no one is inevitably confused, just ask Gongzi to give the lower official a chance to live, no matter what it is, the lower official will agree."

Zhu Yiyuan looked at him, it was obvious that this guy's life had been pinched in his hands, but it was obvious that the value of a county order in the Qing Dynasty was far from being squeezed out.

"Yan Zhixian, you are standing at the Ghost Gate Pass now, what I ask you, you must know everything and say everything, otherwise I don't mind pushing you to the Netherworld."

Yan Zibin's eyes widened, and he nodded vigorously, extremely seriously, for fear of missing a word.

"Right now, how many rebels are there in the land of Shandong? How many are near Laiwu? ”

Hearing this, Master Fang, who was sitting on the ground, got up and looked at Zhu Yiyuan stupidly.

You are a thief head, and you ask the magistrate of the Qing Dynasty about other thieves?

Forgive me for being a shallow learner, and I don't understand what tricks you are playing again.

But Yan Zibin really answered honestly, "Zhu Gongzi, the closest thing to me now is Mount Tai...... The rebels, they are not many in number, it seems that they are the old department of King Ji, and there is a person who also claims to be the son of King Ji. It's just that King Ji may not be true, so it's even harder for him to say. ”

Zhu Yiyuan nodded, this King Ji and their grandfather were sick and sympathetic, the difference was just that Xie Qian did not succeed. It can be seen that the old Zhu family still has a little bit of popular support, otherwise it would not have been pushed out again and again......

"Anything else?"

"Yes, in Yanzhou Mansion, here in Fei County, there is also a Wang Jun, and he has quite a few horses under him. And then there is the Yuyuan Rebel Army on the other side of Cao County, they are the most powerful,"

Zhu Yiyuan nodded, from the Qing army to the customs, the land of Shandong was in flames, and there were many rebels, but many of them had failed, and it was not easy to survive.

"Yan Zhixian, according to what you said, my soldiers and horses are in the north of Yanzhou Mansion, Wang Jun is in the southeast, and the Yuyuan Rebels are in the west...... What will happen if we join forces and enter Yanzhou Mansion and attack Confucius Mansion? ”

Master Fang's face turned pale with fright, "That's Yan Shenggong!" You can't be offended, otherwise no one in the world will agree. ”

Master Fang waved his hand again and again, frightened. As for Yan Zibin, he was calmer in the end, thought for a while, and then shook his head and said: "Zhu Gongzi, I don't have any other meaning, I just want to remind Zhu Gongzi that once he attacks the Confucian Mansion, the Qing court army will definitely kill." ”

"Why? Is it also because of the name of the Holy Father? ”

Yan Zibin groaned a little and said, "There is this reason, but there are other things." ”

Zhu Yiyuan said slowly: "Is it grain?"

Yan Zibin was stunned, showing a look of horror, he didn't expect Zhu Yiyuan to be so keen.

"Zhu Gongzi, in fact, the Kong family has occupied so many acres of land, and they have long been angry and resentful. But why are so many people impeaching them, and it's useless? In addition to this signboard of Yan Shenggong, it is also related to another thing. The Kong family got grain, but they didn't eat it themselves, for a long time, Confucius was the largest grain merchant in Shandong. Yanzhou Mansion happened to have a canal running through it, and at this time Jiangnan was still at war, and the grain in Beijing needed to be supplied by Shandong. This year, the people of the Confucian Mansion raised the land rent to seventy percent, also to please the imperial court......"

When Yan Zibin said this, he bowed deeply to Zhu Yiyuan, "Zhu Gongzi, I really said everything in the next place, and I hope that Gongzi will weigh it carefully, but don't rush to send troops, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Zhu Yiyuan finally nodded and smiled.

"Yan Zhixian's words are indeed true, and only a person like you, who is familiar with the inside story of the imperial court, can say it. That's right...... You caught that Kong Fan, right? ”

Yan Zibin was stunned again, and said in surprise: "Zhu Gongzi, how do you know?" ”

Zhu Yiyuan laughed, "You talk to me about things, other businessmen and gentry are all easy to handle, but the Kong family, you can't settle at all." If you don't arrest Kong Fan, sooner or later you will be exposed, you won't be dead, right? ”

Yan Zibin showed a look of amazement, and had to admire, Zhu Yiyuan was really powerful, thoughtful, and terrifying.

"Actually, Zhu Gongzi only guessed half right, when I asked Master Fang to talk to Gongzi, he had already tricked him into the yamen, chopped him to death, and his body was still in a dry well."

After hearing this, not only Zhu Yiyuan, but even Master Fang was frightened.

Do you think Yan Zibin is an ordinary person?

forced Li Zicheng to rebel, and he can still live to this day, not to mention anything else, the ability to save his life is absolutely amazing. And it's surviving in a desperate situation, and if it's a little worse, you'll lose your head, but don't dare to be careless.

Zhu Yiyuan didn't know what to say, but said, "Please send Kong Fan's head, I want to write a letter to the Kong family." ”

"Write a letter?"

"Yes." As he spoke, Zhu Yiyuan picked up a large pen and wrote on the paper: "Grandchildren of the Kong family: you have betrayed dozens of imperial courts and are disloyal to the country. Now you have to expropriate and oppress the villagers, you don't even want to do it. Fathers and fellow villagers in Yanzhou Mansion, don't give the Kong family a grain of grain......"

After Zhu Yiyuan finished writing, he did not write his name, but wrote three words: Kong Zhongni!
