Chapter IV: Arrest
Following this incident, the matter came to an end for the time being, and Tang Jianqiu had recovered;
As soon as he recovered, Tang Jianqiu returned to Beizhen Fusi, located in Dongcheng, Beiping.
He knows very well that the duty of pacification is related to the law of the country, and the life and death of people are determined by the weight of responsibility, which is heavier than Mount Tai, and cannot be joked.
Of course, being able to become a soothing envoy naturally cannot avoid the eyes of some outsiders.
They respect him on the surface, and the brothers here have only won a hundred households after many years of fighting, but this guy is good, and he is so young that he actually holds the important position of a pacification envoy!
Seeing Tang Jianqiu, who was no longer in good health, Tian Ergeng, who was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, couldn't help but care:
"Jianqiu, are there better?"
Tang Jianqiu was flattered, and bowed and said: "Thank you for the commander's concern, the subordinates are no longer in serious trouble, and it is the carelessness of the subordinates that will let the thieves take advantage of the loopholes." β
Although Tang Jianqiu is the pacification envoy, the actual power is also the greatest, but Tian Ergeng is the leader of the Sanpin Jinyi Guard, and the official rank is still greater than that of the pacification envoy, so Tang Jianqiu will naturally obey him.
Tian Ergeng did not blame Tang Jianqiu for this, but had some understanding,
"I can't blame you for this matter, it's because the enemy is too cunning, I called you here today to explain something important, there is already the whereabouts of the thief, it is said that the criminal Xiong Lao Er and his accomplices are hiding in Daxing, you go and send someone to arrest him."
"Remember, you must catch it alive!"
Tian Ergeng had to advise them to draw favorable clues from these people;
Those miscellaneous pieces can be left alone, the second bear must live!
"Yes!"
Tang Jianqiu's face was cold, and his sharp eyes were full of determination.
If he hadn't accidentally fallen for the thief's tricks, he wouldn't have fainted.
This time, there will never be another miss!
Tang Jianqiu secretly swore that he would prepare a horse and bring a few brothers to arrest people.
β¦β¦
There is a family selling alcohol near Daxing Binhe Town, and although the shop is small, the business is not prosperous.
On weekdays, not many people come to settle here, and if a passenger ship stops to rest, it will not be so deserted.
It's just that the location is not very good, because the tavern is relatively remote, and this shop is a bit simple, since not many people patronize it.
The eight big men sat at two tables, and as if they were a little bored, they shouted to the little two to drink some wine.
These eight burly men don't look like decent men and gentlemen in appearance, the youngest is no more than thirty years, and their clothes are even more casual.
The strongest man had a scar on his forehead, he looked so fierce, and his burly face was as dark and terrible as Zhang Yide was in the world.
The fat man who was the leader was very majestic, Xu was not happy, and scolded the timid little two several times, and then was amused.
Where has the shopkeeper ever seen such a scene? I was almost scared to pee, but I couldn't offend, so I could only hold my grievances in my heart.
There is an old man sitting by the river with a hat fishing, who seems to have the demeanor of Jiang Ziya, so he is comfortable.
However, the old man had been here for an hour, and he had not caught one.
I didn't be impatient because of this, I was always optimistic and calm, just waiting for the big fish to take the bait.
The eight strong men were eating and drinking, and they were so happy.
I wanted to ask the shopkeeper to prepare some more wine and food, but the leader seemed to hear something, and the hand that raised the glass gradually put it down.
"Did you hear anything?"
The leader has always been vigilant, so much so that the slightest disturbance will make him extremely alert.
Hearing this, several of the brothers who were eating and drinking were uncertain, but they listened carefully with solemn faces.
The big man who was as thin as a bamboo pole didn't hear anything, but the other party would be mistaken, "Big brother, maybe you heard it wrong, there are only a few brothers within a few miles here, how can there be outsiders?" β
"No, there must be someone!"
The leader was extremely convinced, subconsciously stood up, and prepared to pack up and flee.
The remaining big men didn't ask much if they were puzzled, but they just did what he said.
However, before they could finish cleaning up, a dozen officials in official uniforms galloping on horses rushed towards where they were.
"Not good! It's Jinyiwei! β
The leader's face changed greatly, and he couldn't care about tidying up, so he hurriedly came to the pillar where the horses were tethered.
The rest of the brothers were even more furious, and they were scrambling to tidy up their things.
After packing up their things, the eight big men were like rats crossing the street, and they immediately got on the horse, which can be described as anxious.
Everyone rode their horses and whips, trying to get rid of the arrest of Jinyiwei.
"How!"
The sound of the whip falling, followed by the sound of horses galloping past, the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves, and the sound of the flute resounding through the square pavilion, and then approaching.
At this time, the scene is picturesque;
"Drive! Drive! β
Tang Jianqiu waved the long whip in his hand, and the horse galloped forward after suffering pain.
Behind him were one person from a thousand households, two from a hundred households, four from a total flag, and a few from a small flag.
Tang Jianqiu was the one who led the way, and after coming to the house that sold alcohol, Tang Jianqiu couldn't take a break, pulled the reins and stopped, and gave priority to lighting up the token to the other party to show his identity, and then opened the portrait of the bounty to the shopkeeper for screening.
"Jin Yiwei handles the case, have you seen the people on this portrait?"
When the shopkeeper saw that the person who came was Jinyiwei, his face turned pale with fright, but he still said truthfully: "If you go back to the adult, that person will not be in the small one for a long time." β
"How long has it been?"
"Shhh...... Less than a stick of incense, if you go now, you must be too late. β
Tang Jianqiu made a look, and Qianhu instantly understood, and after dropping the broken silver, Tang Jianqiu issued an order to the brothers around him:
"Chase!"
Jin Yiwei hurriedly whipped up, and the shopkeeper hurriedly wiped it, picked up the broken silver and looked left and right, and then took a bite, confirming that it was a real smile on his face.
"Later, this town will go first, and you will be behind."
Tang Jianqiu inadvertently glanced at the dozen or so people behind him, full of confidence.
"Yes!"
"Lord Tang, that Xiong Lao Er is suspicious and quite treacherous, I'm afraid it's a fraud." One of the brocade guards had to open his mouth to signal Tang Jianqiu to be more vigilant.
"It's okay, brothers, be careful in case there is an ambush."
"Yes!"
After Tang Jianqiu dropped these words, he led a group of brothers to drive forward.
With Tang Jianqiu and the others going to arrest him, the old man with the fishing rod in his hand had already caught a big fish about a foot long;
There are five guards under the Fusi of the south and north towns, and the commanders are called thousands of households, hundreds of households, general flags, and small flags.
Beizhen Fusi, who is in charge of edicts and prisons, and has edicts, can arrest, interrogate, execute, and execute on their own, without going through ordinary judicial institutions, and is in charge of secret surveillance, anti-corruption and anti-corruption by local vassal kings and officials, and independent investigation, arrest, judgment, and detention power (edicts) and counter-espionage matters.
That is to say, they directly obey the emperor's orders, and there are many things they can do, and the punishment is extremely cruel;
This is also the fundamental reason why the people are so afraid of Jinyiwei;
"Drive! Drive! Drive! β
Finally, under the pursuit of Tang Jianqiu and a few people, they finally saw the traces of the eight big men.
How could Tang Jianqiu let go of this best opportunity? He broke away from his horse and used his light skills to go as fast as he could, blocking the way of the big men neatly.
Tang Jianqiu was alone, he was wearing a big red flying fish suit, a black veil on his head, a belt around his waist, and an embroidered spring knife, majestic and majestic, standing not far from the head.
The leader was shocked, as if he couldn't believe that his movements could be so fast.
I was going to turn around or make the horse stop sharply, but I found that it was too late!
On second thought, maybe this is also a good choice, just trample this official to death with the brothers!
The leader was happy, and a rampant smile appeared from his cheeks, as if he had seen the picture of Tang Jianqiu dying tragically under the horse's hooves.
Tang Jianqiu was not in a hurry, his eyes were as cold as stars, and his handsome face was half hidden.
"Zhengβ"
The embroidered spring knife came out, and the cold light flashed.
"Phew!"
The horse wails in pain, followed by a picture of the horse's hooves falling in two.
"Oops, hey!"
The leader's scream accompanied the horse to the ground, and the leader's body touched the ground and rolled before reacting.
He rolled over and stood, taking up a defensive stance and preparing to return to attack.
The slow reaction in the back was more miserable, because they didn't have time to dodge, they didn't react at all, and they screamed in pain on the ground.
It was not easy to calm down, and the little brothers covered their injured places and let out a cheer to increase their momentum.
The seven of them were like a torrent, attacking Tang Jianqiu with fierce eyes.
Tang Jianqiu was not afraid of danger, and some were just cold to the enemy.
The sound of a gorgeous slash resounded from it.
After a single breath, seven corpses fell to the ground without the slightest heaving;
Bamboo leaves are flying all over the sky in the mountains and forests, Tang Jianqiu's eyes are fierce and sharp, and the terrifying murderous aura fills the entire Daxing Binhe Town!
The leader still didn't believe in this evil anymore, and rushed straight to Tang Jianqiu's face with the two-hundred-pound fist.
Tang Jianqiu easily snatched it with just one side, and the leader took this opportunity to pull out the big knife behind him and stab at Tang Jianqiu.
Tang Jianqiu's face was expressionless, and he raised his sword to parry.
"Boom!"
The sound of double knife contact.
The leader increased his original strength, and he couldn't wait to go down and split Tang Jianqiu in half with a single sword.
Tang Jianqiu didn't move at all, like a tree root rooted in the ground, and effortlessly picked up the big knife.
Then there was the sound of the weapon falling, and before the leader could react to what was going on, the next moment, the embroidered spring knife was already on his neck.
The cold sweat of the leader flowed, and it was only today that he realized how terrifying Tang Jianqiu's strength was.
"Where's the second bear?"
Tang Jianqiu's tone was cold, he knew very well that the person in front of him was just Xiong Lao'er's pawn, and in this situation, it was best to get useful clues from his mouth.
"Our eldest brother gave us a letter to go to the old place to meet, and this letter ......"
The leader pretended to hesitate, and then, as if he had found the right moment, immediately pulled out the lime from the placket.
Just as he was about to slap it into Tang Jianqiu's eyes, Tang Jianqiu reacted quickly and quickly cut off his right hand.
The moment the arm fell, blood sprayed out of the severed arm, staining the ground with its original color.
"Ahh
The leader let out a scream of pain, and he rolled back and forth on the ground in pain.
He clutched his severed limb in great pain to prevent too much blood from draining and then dying.
Tang Jianqiu turned his back, didn't look back, and ordered to the belated brocade guards:
"Take it away."
"Yes!"
The reason why he reacted was because he happened to encounter such an incident in his previous life, when he was too late to react and fell into the enemy's trick again, and his eyes were almost blind.
Now that he's done it all over again, he won't let what happened in his dreams repeat itself!
