Chapter 158: Killing Chickens and Monkeys 1
Wu Buzheng released the coercion of the long-standing position in an instant, like a stick in the head, smashing Pei Yangshu, and couldn't help lowering his head, and began to admit his mistake according to the other party's meaning.
"The teacher is angry, but the student doesn't dare!"
If this matter is exposed, not only will he not be able to live, but he will also be affected by the Pei family.
After a long time, seeing that the other party didn't talk, he tentatively raised his eyes and glanced at it quickly, and continued stubbornly: "Teacher, now is the critical period for the fifth prince and the third prince to win the heir, and please pay attention to the overall situation!" β
Seeing that he was so stubborn, Wu Buzheng snorted coldly and said, "Yang Shu, I remember that you are my own person and admonish you." Whether it is his Yuwen Yao ascending to the top or Yu Wenzhen ascending to the top, anyway, the surname is 'Yuwen' in this world, and it has nothing to do with you and me. β
Hearing this, Pei Yangshu raised his head suddenly, the alarm bell sounded in his heart, and he subconsciously looked left and right, Wu Buzheng's words came too suddenly, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
When Wu Buzheng saw him as if he was facing a great enemy, he sneered with disdain in his heart, so he couldn't hold his breath! Don't expect him to answer, continued.
"Now that the queen has been seven months pregnant, if she gives birth to a prince, with Your Majesty's current physical condition, who will sit on this country? Anyway, I had already returned to my hometown by then, and it didn't have much to do with me. β
Pei Yangshu fell into deep thought, he didn't think about this problem, Daqi did have such a precedent.
The political envoy saw his reaction in the eye, and was ready to add another substantial weight in order to win him over, so he softened his tone and said: "Yang Shu, you can take this!" β
After speaking, he took out a brocade box from behind him: "This is a hundred taels of gold, you can put it away!" From tomorrow, I will raise the soup kitchens in various places to a higher level, and you and I can be regarded as having an explanation. β
Under the combination of soft and hard, Pei Yangshu was really a little moved.
"This ......" Pei Yangshu couldn't turn a corner for the sudden change of the political envoy, and after hesitating for a while, he took the brocade box, and said in his heart: It's just such a little money, what kind of life are you fighting for?
And along the way, the provinces under the jurisdiction of the three princes are not much better, and once Jiangnan Province, which is the most severely affected, can stabilize the situation, it can be regarded as having a merit for itself.
At this moment, the window was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a man and a woman rolled in. The person who came was none other than Xiao Wenjun and Wang Jiuyuan, who had been eavesdropping outside the door.
"There is a thorn ......" The political envoy was only halfway through his words, and Xiao Wenjun's long sword had already pressed against his throat, holding back his words for help back into his stomach.
And although Pei Yangshu has both civil and military skills, where is Wang Jiuyuan's opponent, between lightning and fire, he is also subdued and unable to move.
This change came very suddenly, and no one expected that the well-guarded Mansion of the Political Envoy would sneak in with assassins, and there were two of them!
After taking Pei Yangshu, Wang Jiuyuan skillfully took out a poison from his mouth, and he was already familiar with this operation.
Pei Yangshu was originally guarding against Yu Wenyao's people, and he would definitely collide with him when he went to Jiangnan this time, in case of an accident falling into the hands of the other party, I was afraid that he would not be able to stand their torture, so it was better to cut himself off first, and he could keep a little more secret.
Hopeless, Pei Yangshu looked at the two black-clothed people in front of him and blurted out: "You are Yu Wenyao's people?" β
Xiao Wenjun was too lazy to talk nonsense with stupid people, snorted coldly, knocked the two of them unconscious, neatly put them into a sack, and one of them carried a sack.
Just as they were about to leave, there was a small sound of rustling on the wall of the study, both of them had good ear strength, looked at each other, and immediately divided the work, Wang Jiuyuan stepped forward to check, and Xiao Wenjun was guarding the door.
Wang Jiuyuan tentatively knocked on the wall a few times, the sound was hollow, there should be a mezzanine here. Generally, the study room of a high-profile household will be set up with a secret passage or mezzanine to escape or hide something that is not visible.
He carefully inspected the study room, and did not miss any subtleties, and found that on the Duobao Pavilion embedded in the wall, there was a thin vase that was oily and shiny, and this grid was much cleaner than the other grids, and it was it!
Wang Jiuyuan did not hesitate, and turned the bottle with his hand, and sure enough, the wall cabinet next to it slowly rotated, revealing the mezzanine inside.
The two of them looked at each other, and their faces were incredible, and there was a living person tied up in the mezzanine!
Wang Jiuyuan checked the organ again, the two were very tacit, just one look, Xiao Wenjun walked to the door of the organ to guard, and he walked into the mezzanine to check the person who was kidnapped.
When he saw the other party's face clearly, his eyes suddenly lit up, and it was the governor of Jiangnan who was tied up, an official who was specially designed to supervise the implementation of the disaster relief decree by the political envoy, and the political envoy Wu Bu was so bold that he actually detained the governor privately!
Looking at the governor's appearance, it seemed that he had just woken up and turned around, and his body was very weak, Wang Jiuyuan immediately took away the rags that blocked his mouth, and at the same time tore off his face towel, made a silent gesture, and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhang, it's me!" β
Governor Zhang is a protΓ©gΓ© of Wang Ge Lao, and he has had several relationships with Wang Jiuyuan, and in the memory of Xiao Wenjun's previous life, he is also an upright character.
"Prince Wang, can you pour a glass of water for the old man to drink." He was locked up in this dark place, and he didn't know how many days and nights had passed, and it was only with a perseverance that he had survived until now.
If he hadn't woken up from his coma just now, and he happened to make a sound that was heard by Wang Jiuyuan, who had excellent ear power, after Xiao Wenjun took Wu Bu's political envoy away, no one would know that he was locked up here, and he was afraid that he would not be found until his body stinked after he died.
God has eyes!
After drinking the water, Mingyuan, who was on guard outside, walked in from the shadows, and now everyone had a task, and the three of them were all superior, carrying one person on their backs to fly the eaves and walking on the wall, as if walking on the ground, leaving the mansion of the political envoy.
As when he came, he did not know the ghost.
After returning to Huayang Tower, Governor Zhang slowly eased up, drank a bowl of porridge, calmed down, and told the story of what had happened recently.
"Since the heavy rain in the south of the Yangtze River, after the flood, the old man began to run for disaster relief, a few days ago, Wang Ge ......," Governor Zhang glanced at Wang Jiuyuan and continued.
"Wang Ge Lao broke away from the five princes and the party, Wu Huaian thought that I had no backstage, and had a lot of trouble with me on the matter of soup porridge, and he had long regarded me as a thorn in his side."
"Two days ago, he invited me to the house for a talk on the pretext of disaster relief, tricked me into his study, took advantage of my unpreparedness, took sweat medicine, and when I woke up, I was in the mezzanine where there was no daylight."
What Governor Zhang said was similar to what Xiao Wenjun expected, Wu Huai'an, as a feudal official, the largest official in the entire Jiangnan Province, and Emperor Yuan, he can do whatever he wants here!
The imperial court not only allocated food, but also allocated disaster relief money, but it was exploited by these corrupt officials layer by layer, and almost nothing was left in the hands of the people.
At this time, Boss Guo of the rice shop, political envoys Wu Huai'an and Pei Yangshu, the three of them were neatly taken to the secret room under the Huayang Building.
It can be seen that Xiao Wenjun is more arrogant than the political envoy, she not only dares to take people prisoner, but also dares to torture them to extract confessions!
