"You, what are you going to do?"

Chen Xingkui woke up and found that he was tied up and still in the wilderness.

What's even more terrifying is that one of Yang Shuai's two personal soldiers is watching him, and the other is digging a pit.

Digging a pit in the physical sense.

"What for?"

Zu Kefa grinned and said, "I don't do anything, I just think that this forest is not lush enough and needs someone to use it as fertilizer." ”

can say "buried alive" so fresh and refined, Chen Xingkui was scared and cried.

"I'm your commander's staff, you can't do this to me."

"What do you say? This brother of mine is a Jurchen and can't understand your words. ”

Zukaffa glanced at Bahana behind him.

Bahana understood, but still pretended not to understand, and still dug the pit.

Chen Xingkui cried: "I, I am your ......"

"You're a! Don't treat us as fools, you are the dark stake that Old Man Chen pressed next to my handsome. ”

Zu Kefa took a sip and said unceremoniously: "Do you think that your master can be rampant in my Jinzhou Town if he is powerful and prosperous in the Jiangnan area?" Joke! ”

This stinking scolding frightened Chen Xingkui all over.

Soon, Bahana dug a shallow pit, turned back to Zukoffa and said, "It's all right. ”

Zu Kefa comprehended, looked at the pit, and said deliberately: "It's so shallow, how can you bury people." Forget it, it's going to be a minute. Throw the person in, cover it with dirt, and step on it a few more times. ”

Such a shocking thing was said lightly by Zu Kefa, which made Chen Xingkui's legs tremble.

He was convinced that these people would be able to do it, and they were fierce generals who killed the enemy on the battlefield.

"Please, don't kill me, I'll tell you everything." Chen Xingkui said with a bitter face.

"Okay, you say."

Zu Kefa's words changed, "If you tell a lie, I will cut out your tongue first, and make you a dumb person in the next life." ”

"I, I said......" Chen Xingkui's teeth were so frightened that he frightened.

After a while, he said, "Actually, my lord wants me to collect some evidence and ask ...... Report to the imperial court to expose Yang Shuai. ”

"Why?" Zukoffa asked.

"The big businessmen in the Jiangnan area are used to being free and easy, but I didn't expect Jinzhou Town to be managed by people and collect taxes."

"What else?"

"No, it's gone!" Chen Xingkui shook his head.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Oh." Zukaffa winked at Bahana.

Bahana went straight forward, grabbed the rope on Chen Xingkui's back, and lifted him to the front of the pit like a chicken.

"I've said everything!"

Chen Xingkui looked back at Zu Kefa, "Really, I really said it all." ”

"Humph! You're so easy to deceive when we are! ”

Zu Kefa's face showed a cold look, "Don't forget, how many years we have been dealing with the enemy, we have long been accustomed to seeing life and death. ”

Chen Xingkui realized what kind of role he was facing.

"Bury him!" Zukefa ordered.

Bahana threw Chen Xingkui into the dirt pit fiercely, picked up the shovel and was about to fill the soil.

Chen Xingkui hurriedly shouted: "I said, I'll tell the truth!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a shovel of soil was poured on his head.

Gaizhou, Wenfeng Temple.

This small temple, whose name is unknown, has long been destroyed in the war.

More than a dozen little nuns knelt in front of the gaped clay Buddha statues, chanting sutras and reciting Buddha.

The princess, Yingniang and Shen Yirong were all in front of the Buddha, with their hands folded, their heads bowed and their eyes closed, and they recited Buddhist scriptures silently.

Yang Chengying didn't do this, stood outside, quietly staring at the ruins.

At this moment, Zukova came in with light steps.

"Boss, we've found out ......"

Yang Chengying waved his hand to signal him to be quieter, and then took Zu Kefa aside and asked him to continue.

Zu Kefa continued: "Dongchang wants to blackmail Old Man Chen and ask him to send a person to Da Shuai's side to be an undercover agent, even if he can't get evidence, he will fabricate evidence and falsely accuse Da Shuai of rebellion. ”

"How did Chen Xingkui know that it was Dongchang's idea?" Yang Chengying asked.

"He is Old Man Chen's personal servant, and he overheard the conversation between the master and Dongchang Fanzi."

Zu Kefa explained: "Dongchang promised that after the matter was completed, the salt field in the green mud pool would be given to Old Man Chen. ”

"It turned out to be eyeing my salt farm."

Yang Chengying was thoughtful.

In the past, the salt works were very secretive because Yang Chengying made various excuses, such as building the city and inspecting the crops in the green mud puddles.

After all, the monopoly of salt and iron was the practice of the feudal dynasty, and it was very profitable and risky for private individuals.

With the increasing scale of salt sales, and even the opening of special rice and salt shops in various places, it is only a matter of time before they are exposed.

Wei Zhongxian can turn a blind eye, but he still can't help it in the face of rolling profits.

"How is Chen Xingkui?"

"As you intended, I have asked Bahana to send him back to the house as if nothing had happened."

"Good. You tell Chen Xingkui that you are not allowed to go anywhere in the future. ”

"Yes." Zukefa clenched his fists and turned to leave.

Yang Chengying looked at the green mountains in the distance and thought about the next step.

Just thinking about it, Wang Yong hurried over.

"Marshal, someone from the capital has come, and he has already arrived outside the General Army's Mansion."

Without waiting to take a breath, Wang Yong said anxiously: "Dashuai, this person is not small, and he also carries a few carts of property. ”

The personal eunuch who could make the princess say such a thing surprised Yang Chengying.

Who will be the people from the capital?

Yang Chengying turned around and entered the temple and explained the situation to the princess.

The princess didn't want to delay her business, so she agreed to go home early.

After returning home, the servant reported to him: "Handsome, the distinguished guest is waiting for you to go with tea in the living room." ”

"Guest?"

Yang Chengying became more curious and walked to the living room.

I saw a man of medium stature sitting on a chair, bowing his head and drinking tea.

After Yang Chengying glanced at it a few times, his eyes widened: "Master Cui! ”

When the tea drinker heard the voice, he raised his head and said with a smile: "The distinguished guest is me, you won't mind." ”

"How so!"

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "The dignified military department is still in the cold house, making the cold house shine. ”

There was a bit of ridicule in the words.

Today's military department is Cui Chengxiu, Wei Zhongxian's lackey and one of the two masterminds!

can make Wang Yonghe and the subordinates in the mansion call them distinguished guests, and Cui Chengxiu must have given them a lot of benefits.

Money talks.

"Cui Shangshu, why don't you stay in the capital? But I came to my little town of Golden State. ”

Yang Chengying didn't take Cui Chengxiu in his eyes either, and sat on the main seat.

"The world is impermanent, and it is difficult to follow people's wishes."

Cui Chengxiu sighed and said: "I have asked the imperial court and received the permission to serve as the Liaodong Patrol with the title of Secretary of the Ministry of War, stationed in Jinzhou Town. ”

To put it bluntly, he is a civilian officer who supervises the army.

"If you don't do the military department, who will?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Huo Weihua took over from me and became the secretary of the military department."

Cui Chengxiu said: "Please give me more advice in the future." ”

Yang Chengying felt a little strange in his heart, it was really interesting that a good court member didn't do it, and he came here to be a puppet.
