Chapter 18: Murder by the Sword

After Master Song took back the four treasures of the study, the two of them said a word, sharpened the spring and autumn period, and polished the official document of this newspaper many times, and it took an hour to write this official document "flawlessly".

In the story after the two of them polished, the county lord is of course great and upright, and the officials who died in the battle are also heroic, and even the Li Daguan, who may leak the news, has been given the title of a good squire.

After Ding Zhixian arrived, he laid a net, and Li Ghost had nowhere to escape, so in desperation, he went to Yushan and the thieves fell into the grass.

Li Ghost and Yushan thieves went down the mountain to buy grain in the city, but they were bumped into by the steward of the Li family, and secretly reported to the yamen, but unfortunately the news leaked out, so that they were wiped out.

Under the secret visit of Ding Zhixian, he finally found the traces of Li Ghost, so he sent the officials to arrest them, only hating the meticulous work of the Yushan thieves among the officials, and secretly tipping off the news, so that all the officials fell into the trap and the whole army was annihilated.

Who are the finesses?

Do you still need to ask?

Everyone else died in battle, so you came back alive, and said that there was no collusion with the Yushan thieves?

Even when the magistrate was killed, he was inseparable from them.

As for whether they will shout unjustly and retract their confessions, hehe...... How can the words of a gangster and sinner be used as evidence in court?

After the plan was decided, Ding Zhixian began to transcribe official documents, and Master Song took a few henchmen to get people.

Those officials who were lucky enough to escape back had not yet recovered from the panic of escaping death, and they were all captured by Master Song and thrown into prison.

After doing these things, Master Song went to Lijiazhuang to place an invitation and invited Li Daguan to come to the banquet.

The officials who knew the truth of the matter were all arrested, and among the few remaining people who knew about it, this Li Daguan was an outsider.

The matter of suppressing bandits was originally promoted by him, so it was necessary to collude with him in advance, so as not to make a mistake on his side.

Steward Li has changed from the original transaction with thieves to being hacked and blackened, and now he is being killed by reporting to the government, which is different in nature, which makes Li Daguan look better on his face.

But if this surnamed Li doesn't give face, then it is not impossible to temporarily change the scapegoat and replace it with him.

Who is not buckled on the black pot?

As long as those poor people can get away with their crimes, they will definitely cooperate obediently.

Although framing the local gentry has endless troubles, but now that the fire has burned to the eyebrows, there is no way to take care of it.

The magistrate of the broken family, the Fu Yin who destroyed the door, this is not a joke!

-----------------

Li Yun is the head of the family, since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, the capital of Yishui County has been in the bag of the Li family.

With the position of the head of the capital, the Li family has already become a local outsider, although the family has not raised people to enter the army, but the local gentry also have to give some face.

Since ancient times, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, and if the county wanted to control the local area, it was necessary to need the support of local heroes.

Anyone who tries to replace the position of the head of the Li family will either lose his reputation and become the scapegoat of the county, or he will simply have an accident and die in the wilderness.

Over time, Li Yun inevitably became a little more arrogant.

He originally thought that the current situation would continue, and the Li family could be rich and noble for generations, and no one could do anything about the Li family.

However, disaster fell from the sky, and the magistrate was hacked to death by thieves in the backyard of the yamen!

As the head of Yishui County, Li Yun is not good for protecting the county, and his responsibility is not light.

The group of old men who had nothing to do all day long, this time the efficiency was beyond the exceptionally high, and the next day, a team of people came to Yishui County and interrogated all the relevant people.

As a Xu official for many years, how could Li Yun not know what the purpose of this group of people was?

The thieves who killed that day have all fled without a trace, what kind of trial will they be tried?

It's just that I want to use this to get some flowers!

In order to save his life, Li Yun made many efforts to break the wealth accumulated by his ancestors for several generations, so that he could barely save his life, but the position of the head of the capital was lost.

Li Yun, who thought that his own role was irreplaceable in the county, knew that without a turban to protect his body, he was just a lamb to be slaughtered, and no matter how much wealth he accumulated, it was just for the nobles.

But his Li family has always been an heirloom of officials, and he inherited the skills in the yamen, at most he knew some guns and sticks, and he didn't know how to study and take exams at all.

Li Daguan's housekeeper has always been in charge of thieves and stolen goods, and has been friends with the surrounding thieves for many years, but this time, for some reason, he offended the Yushan thieves, was hacked to death with a knife, and even the entire store was robbed.

The magistrate couldn't stand the pressure and summoned the officials to suppress the thieves.

Li Yun used the money again and got the identity of an ordinary official, originally wanting to follow him into the mountains to kill the thief, and then slowly use the means to regain the position.

But he didn't want to, Qian Ketong, who took away his position as the head, was afraid of him in his heart, and went into the mountain with a large number of people, but he left him off the guard.

He hated it so much that his teeth itched, but the situation was unbearable, and he didn't dare to go beyond the rules, for fear that he would find an opportunity to fire him.

Who knew that the Yushan thief snatched a lot of weapons and armor from the Li family's shop, not only was it not exterminated, but it wiped out all the officials and killed them.

The man surnamed Qian had just been doing it for a few days, and then he threw his life in the dense forest, which can only be said to be the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and the retribution is not happy.

After so many deaths, there was no one available in the hands of the magistrate, so he had no choice but to promote him again and make him the head again.

This is really providential!

It is destined that this position should be owned by his Li family, and others can't force it.

On the one hand, he swore an oath, assuring the magistrate that he would definitely look forward to it, and on the other hand, he secretly looked for suitable people, intending to rebuild the team and bring the affairs of the county back into his hands.

That night, Li Daguan came to Ding Zhixian Mansion for a banquet, and Li Yun hurriedly rushed to the county magistrate's mansion to wait, in preparation for the summons of the nobles.

After more than an hour, he saw Ding Zhixian personally send Li Daguan out of the door, and both of them were smiling and smiling, thinking that everything was going well.

After Li Daguan got into the car and set off to return home, Li Yun saw that a trace of disdain seemed to flash a smile on the corner of Ding Zhixian's mouth, and he turned his head and walked towards the house with Master Song, and vaguely Li Yun seemed to hear a sentence:

"Hmph, count him as acquaintances!"

They didn't know that after Li Daguan entered the carriage, the smile on his face really couldn't be hidden, he covered his mouth with his hands, laughed silently, and leaned forward and backward.

How many goods and how many weapons and equipment were lost in his shop, how could Li Daguan not know?

He knew that those officials were not the opponents of the Yushan thieves at all, but he didn't say a word, and deliberately watched them die, the purpose of which was to kill people with a knife.

Originally, the pattern in the county was relatively fixed, and all the officials and officials had an inextricable relationship with the gentry.

It is precisely by relying on these small officials that the gentry can firmly control the affairs of the county, even if the county magistrate comes, it depends on their faces.

However, Li Ghost suddenly killed Zhixian, and all the officials were involved, and the new officials were promoted by Ding Zhixian, and the gentry were not so handy to use.

Instead of slowly promising benefits to win over this group of people, it is better to quickly cut through the mess with a knife, borrow a knife to kill people, and let them all die under the hands of Li Gui, and then Ding Zhixian will become the commander of the light pole again, and can only continue to rely on the old people.

And now Ding Zhixian's approach is exactly what he wants, let the officials and soldiers in the state come over and kill Ghost Li, he doesn't say anything about it, and he can also take back the lost weapons and armor.

Another murder with a knife!

Wouldn't it be beautiful to kill two birds with one stone?
