469: Lao Tzu is an official
In the secret room, the two gangsters have been beaten to the point of being inhuman.
The two of them glanced up at Qin Wei weakly, and then lowered their heads and remained silent.
"What's the way?"
Qin Wei waved his hand and refused the chair brought by Qiao Feng, and Daniel Zhang said on the side: "Lang Jun, these two people said that they were from Niujiazhuang, and they were ordered to find out the recipe of the fragrance dew last night and wanted to imitate it." ”
From the time Xianglu was brought out by Qin Wei to the present, the covetous gaze has never stopped.
It's just that the Qin family and many people from the Shangjun Mansion are staring, and ordinary people only dare to think about it, but there are not many people who really dare to come to the door like this.
Qin Wei has been waiting for this day to come.
He took the stick, picked up a man's chin, and asked, "Who is behind Niujiazhuang?" ”
The man shook his head and said, "I don't know, it's just that the steward Niu Kun ordered the villain to come and investigate." ”
"Inquiry?"
Qin Wei slapped a stick in the man's face.
The face quickly swollen, and he said angrily, "Sneaking into the workshop is to investigate? It's an assassination! ”
The man was screaming, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but shout in panic: "The noble man spares his life, the villain is really here to investigate, don't dare to assassinate, don't dare!" ”
There is no harm in just infiltrating, but assassination is a felony, and the handling is naturally different.
Qin Wei got up and said, "Where is Niujiazhuang?" ”
"Qinjiazhuang is less than thirty miles north."
Xie Ting couldn't hold it anymore and suggested; "Lang Jun, why don't you report to the official? Wait for the people from the government to come and deal with it, after all, this is the private land of Qinjiazhuang, and the government will definitely punish it severely! ”
His eyes were rolling, and he looked like he wanted to do it himself.
But Qin Wei's temperament is also clear that sometimes he can't talk too much, and Lang Jun doesn't like to be a smart person.
It's just that how will Lang Jun choose?
"Report a fart, Lao Tzu is an official! Have you ever seen an official go to the yamen to cry out for injustice? ”
Qin Wei said with blazing eyes: "These two sneaked in in the middle of the night, they must be waiting for news over there, if they go late, they won't be able to catch a single hair, and fifty brothers will follow, let's set off immediately, and catch them off guard!" ”
More than 50 people left the barracks in a big way.
Before leaving, Qin changed into civilian clothes for the people who advanced the Northern Expeditionary Army, after all, the Northern Expeditionary Army was still nominally the armed forces of the imperial court, and he had to have a formal reason for his private transfer.
If you think that this kind of business is similar to robbing a house, someone will be impeached when it spreads.
Half an hour later, the village was in front of you.
The ground is not alive now, so Zhuangzi looks lifeless.
"Lead the way!"
The two men were gagged and their hands were tied with ropes, one end of which was held in the hands of a Northern Expeditionary soldier, as if she were herding sheep.
Everyone swaggered into Zhuangzi.
After seeing the neatest courtyard, Qin Wei didn't have to use them to lead the way.
Directly pinched his waist and came to the center of the gate, stretched out his hand to point at the gate, and said with a cruel smile: "Rush in for Lao Tzu!" Anyone who resists with weapons will directly break his leg! ”
If you say that the life of the Great Song Dynasty is the best, it is the big landlord.
The Great Song Dynasty did not restrict land annexation, and all kinds of taxes were heavy, today you are a small landlord, tomorrow you are likely to go bankrupt and become a tenant.
But the big landowners are different.
But all big landlords almost have the support of strength behind them.
Niu Tian is a big landowner, Niujiazhuang is his territory, it can be said that in this acre of three points of land, his status is the same as that of the soil emperor.
Such a day is natural and comfortable, and it is very stable.
He sat in a circle chair with a young maid fanning her fan.
The breeze is light, the autumn air outside is refreshing and you don't have to go out to enjoy it, even if this kind of life is not changed for an emperor, it is no wonder that there are so many powerful people in the Great Song Dynasty, but none of them take the initiative to rebel.
At the beginning, Emperor Taizu used a glass of wine to release his military power to resolve the royal threat, but he invisibly cultivated a group of powerful people who ate people and did not vomit bones.
They are like leeches, inconspicuous at first, but as time goes by, even the biggest empire will be slowly eaten away by these people.
"They're not here yet?"
Ushida had just had breakfast and had eaten a little too much.
He moved his chest and abdomen, and the food poured up into his mouth. Then he chewed on his nausea and looked at the butler outside the door.
The housekeeper was also looking outside, looking up at the sky, his eyebrows furrowed: "Lang Jun, it's been two hours, will they be caught?" ”
Niu Tian snorted, and just when the housekeeper secretly praised his Langjun for being as calm as a mountain, he saw him jump up suddenly.
"Check it out! That Qin Wei is known as a thief, and he must not be allowed to catch the handle! ”
Niu Tian rushed to the door with a 100-meter acceleration action,
The maid was so frightened that she exclaimed, and this exclamation was tactful and coquettish.
If he had heard this voice in the past, Niu Tian would definitely have lowered his body and made a fool of himself, and then followed suit.
But at this moment, he turned around, and his eyes were fierce like a wolf.
"Shut up or I'll kill you!"
The maid covered her mouth and trembled with fright.
Niu Tian stood by the door, his right hand holding the door frame, his left hand hanging by his side, trembling slightly.
The housekeeper had been out for a while, but there was no movement at all, and he couldn't help but shout: "Niu Kun!" ”
The autumn breeze rustles through the courtyard......
Ushida looked up at the branches and leaves swaying in the wind, and felt that the poetic scene in the past was so terrifying. Those branches and leaves seemed to be waving the arms of demons and monsters, and those rustling sounds seemed to be a cruel smile......
Ushida suddenly listened attentively, his body miraculously stopped trembling, and then slowly turned around.
The maid stood on the side, tied her hands, and when she saw him turn around, she squeezed out a flattering smile.
But the smile immediately froze on his face, and the maid looked behind him in horror.
Ushida heard a small voice behind him, and he swore it was footsteps.
He stiffened, his cheeks trembling.
No one would be so light-hearted...... Unless he is forced by a strongman to dare not move.
"Niu Kun ......"
With the last shred of hope, he summoned the butler.
"Ushida?"
A voice came from behind him, followed by footsteps.
Niu Tian shuddered at first, then stared at the maid in front of him, and he slowly turned around...... Then one lunged and pounced on the maid.
The maid was already stunned and was pulled behind her by him.
He hoped that the maid would be able to hold off the pursuers for a moment, so he burst out of his potential and ran wildly after him.
Qin Wei didn't pursue, but just glanced at the direction of Niu Tian's escape.
Xie Ting went to get a chair for him to sit down, and then asked someone to slip Niu Kunti over.
Niu Kun's face was bruised, and he asked calmly, "Dare to ask who your nobleman is?" This is Niujiazhuang, today's nobles and horses step on Niujiazhuang, tomorrow's court is above...... I'm afraid that there will be no less impeachment. ”
Qin sat down with a golden knife and asked, "You sent those two people last night?" ”
The two had already come in, and they were led and kneeling on the side, their noses and faces swollen very miserably.
Even if Niu Kun had expected the matter to be revealed, he was still a little stunned at this moment and said, "The villain didn't instruct anything...... They...... They were driven out of Niujiazhuang by the villain for stealing......"
It's a quick one, and it's a good excuse.
The powerful will use this trick to clear their suspicions, just like some people in later generations will use temporary workers to talk about things at every turn.
"Really?"
Qin Wei raised his head slightly, and suddenly kicked Niu Kun over, scolding: "Ma's! You don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin! That's fine, Xie Ting! ”
Xie Ting was happy in his heart, and stood up and said, "Lang Jun." ”
Qin Wei said impatiently: "Execution, it's here." ”
Niu Kun said with a shocked face: "This is a private court!" ”
Xie Ting directly grabbed him by the back collar and said with a cruel smile: "My family Langjun is an official and a four-grade official, and he has both civil and military positions!" Wherever my family Langjun goes, there is the court. ”
After a leather whip, Daniel Zhang also stood up, asked his subordinates to take out a small brush, and asked someone to take off Niu Kun's shoes and socks.
Xie Ting didn't know what he wanted to do, so he frowned and said, "What about torture here, what are you fooling in?" ”
Daniel Zhang looked back angrily and did not speak.
Daniel Zhang was the first to follow Qin Wei, even earlier than Di Qing.
He naturally has his own pride.
This time, you must show your face in front of Lang Jun, otherwise these brothers will be in the limelight by the Northern Expeditionary Army in the future.
What does it feel like to gently brush the soles of your feet with a brush?
Xie Ting didn't know before, but he knows now......
"Oh! Yes! Haha, haha......"
I saw Niu Kun twisting his body vigorously, laughing and crying.
"Lang Jun, Niu Tian has been caught."
Niu Tian had an extra whip mark on his face, and he was dragged over by Qiao Feng with one hand.
"Haha, haha......"
Niu Kun burst into tears and laughed, Niu Tian glanced at him, and there was more color in his eyes.
"Get on your knees!"
Qiao Feng kicked him to his knees in front of Shen An and said, "Lang Jun, this person is cunning, he actually hid in the thatched house first, and after our people rushed over, he quietly fled from the side. If it weren't for our people on the wall, he would have escaped today. ”
"Hehe......"
Qin Wei leaned forward, stared at Niu Tian and asked, "Do you know how valuable the Xianglu's recipe is?" There are more people in Bianliang City who want to seize the formula, and those top magnates are drooling in their dreams, but they don't dare to act rashly...... Do you know why? ”
Niu Tian's eyes were more cunning, and he said, "I don't know what you're talking about......
Qin Wei smiled, "Because the camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army is next to Qinjiazhuang, they have suffered losses...... Those powerful people who cooperated with the Qin family were even more ruthless, and they were even more afraid that the gains would outweigh the losses! ”
Qin Wei lowered his body again, leaned closer to look at his face, and sneered.
"So...... You dared to do it, but it made Qin a little surprised. Originally, I thought that there would be a powerful family behind it who was giving advice, but after seeing you, Qin knew that there was at most a small magnate or official behind it, otherwise he wouldn't be so stupid and let you send someone to spy on ......"
Niu Tian's eyes flashed with horror, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
This is a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
Qin Wei smiled: "Are you fearless?" Interesting. ”
"The villain has been recruited...... The villain recruited ......"
Niu Tian was still dying, but Niu Kun couldn't stand the torture of brushing the soles of his feet with a brush, and collapsed directly.
"Who is it?"
Daniel Zhang carried the brush and continued to tickle him.
"It's a businessman......"
"Ordinary businessmen don't dare, who do businessmen deal with?"
"And ...... and several clans. ”
Qin Wei remembered the recent undercurrent, so he asked, "Is there a lie?" ”
Niu Kun never knew that tickling was so painful.
He glanced at the brush in Daniel Zhang's hand fearfully and said, "The villain doesn't dare, if there is a lie, you can kill the villain immediately!" ”
"Ask him."
Qin Wei nodded and looked at Niu Tian.
Daniel Zhang raised the inconspicuous pony brush in his hand again, and everyone around couldn't help but shudder.
Even a tough guy like Xie Ting couldn't help frowning.
In the past, people in the Northern Expedition always felt that the existence of Daniel Zhang and others was a chicken rib, and to say that the spying and reconnaissance of the Northern Expedition Army had also received professional training, and interrogation and extortion of confessions were commonplace.
Especially after two consecutive victories in Fuzhou and Southwest, they always feel that they are the best in the world.
Xie Ting's gang has long been above the top.
Seeing Daniel Zhang's methods this time, many people in the Northern Expedition Army were a little more jealous in their hearts.
Lang Jun has no waste, they are all talents!
Then there was a lot of screaming in the yard.
"Lang Jun, it's that businessman who is pulling the strings in the middle."
Daniel Zhang's eyes were full of excitement, and he said, "Hang them directly outside the workshop and brush some honey on their bodies, those bugs can't like it the most......"
"Lord Qin spares his life......"
The two were directly frightened, knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Qin Wei kicked away Niu Tian, who wanted to hug his thigh, and some unknown color flashed in his eyes.
"Can you ...... Do you want to die or want to live? ”
"I want to live, and the villain wants to live."
"Then be obedient, remember, it will be good for you to be well-behaved."
……
While autumn is high and cool, autumn also brings dryness, which makes it easy for people to get angry, and many small pimples keep growing on their faces.
In the county king's mansion, Zhao Yunrang sat upright, his young face was full of irritability, and he was losing his temper.
"Mah! How many times have you said it, be cautious, be low-key, you should all turn a deaf ear! Someone! Hand him over to marble to ask for guilt, Lao Tzu doesn't care! ”
In the center of the main hall was a young man kneeling, looking fifteen or sixteen years old.
The boy is Zhao Yunrang's half-brother Zhao Yunzhong, who was born to the concubine of the old county king.
It stands to reason that Zhao Yunrang can completely ignore him, but the powerful also have the difficulties of the powerful, Zhao Yunrang, as the head of the family, if he doesn't care, who will be with him in the county king's mansion in the future.
The young county king had just encountered this kind of bad thing as soon as he became a family, how could Zhao Yun make one angry.
"Big brother, there is nothing wrong with so-and-so, it was those people who dragged so-and-so to go to Fanlou to drink, and the younger brother drank too much during the banquet, and they said bad things about you, and so-and-so did it, and it was not clear what happened after that, and so-and-so didn't mean to beat people......"
Zhao Yunzhong raised his head aggrievedly, with a crying tone in his tone.
This made Zhao Yunrang even more angry, and scolded: "Idiot! You don't know what those little cubs do? How many times have you said that you should stay away from those people, you just don't listen, you deserve it! ”
"They mock each other and scold you......"
Zhao Yunzhong wanted to defend a few more words, but he only heard a bang.
Zhao Yunrang casually threw out the teacup and smashed it on Zhao Yunzhong's head, who was smashed firmly but didn't dare to speak, so he could only lower his head and stop talking.
The butler also came in at this moment, and after taking a look at the mess in the room, he whispered a report.
"King of the county, Qin Langjun is here."
