Sometimes even the emperor who took the throne from his elder brother couldn't help but wonder, what exactly does he want from this loyal and brave man bestowed by himself?Is it true that he has no intention of facing Chaotang?If this is the case, are my various targetings a little too much, are I too sensitive?
Even the emperor thinks this way, and few other courtiers can understand it.As a suspected person, Yang Chendong doesn't seem to care about other people's opinions. After returning to the academy, he became a serious teacher, teaching his students attentively.His four wives and concubines also continued to enter the capital this morning, rehearsing the program in the Immortal Residence, taking in those women on the street, they are still doing it, and they seem to be completely immune to the bombardment Influenced, it seems that what happened in Heijing Street never happened.
It is this seemingly ordinary behavior that makes everyone feel confused.And after thinking about it and not being able to figure it out, everyone turned their attention back to their respective affairs. Although the gunfire in the middle of the night was there, it was only aimed at Heijing Street. It is what should be done.
And only some people with deep vision can vaguely see that what this young loyal and courageous man is doing is practical things.To develop business is to save money; Yang Bao is to control public opinion; Shenxianju is to expand its influence; I can't see clearly.
But no matter what, the turmoil gradually calmed down.Some courtiers who thought something big would happen breathed a sigh of relief.Afterwards, more attention was paid to changing the defense of the army.It involves hundreds of thousands of troops moving back and forth. There are many things that need to be done, a lot of money needs to be spent, and there are also many vacant seats. How to make a living in it and get the goal you want is the subject of yours. Things to consider and do.
With Zhu Qiyu's approval, under the leadership of important ministers like Shi Heng and Yi Ming who hold real power, the matter of changing the army's defense was vigorously carried out.Groups of soldiers walked out of the capital, and groups of soldiers entered the capital again. They seemed to be orderly, and also showed the military strength of Ming Dynasty, so that more dignitaries could enjoy life with peace of mind.It's just that behind all this, countless families have been destroyed, and countless people have lost their homes.
The courtiers turned their attention away from Yang Chendong, but some people still focused on him.In an inconspicuous Chengshun Inn in the capital, in a dimly lit backyard, a tall man was standing there, listening to what another man with murderous looks in his eyes was saying. .
"Brother Yan, this time my elder brother and third younger brother died too unjustly, you must make the decision for us." After the man who was slightly shorter and dressed as a wanderer said a lot, he said this as his own In summary, it seems to be crying about something.
"Injustice?" The so-called Big Brother Yan uttered a word, and he didn't know whether it was a sigh or a feeling, but he shook his head lightly and continued: "The one you brothers are facing is a loyal and courageous man. , who is also known as the God of War, since he did it, he should have thought of such an ending long ago."
"Yes, we were careless about this matter. But no matter what, he shouldn't have done such a cruel thing. Poor my elder brother was bombarded and died in the secret road, and the third brother died under the musket. If I If you don't do something, you won't have the face to see your brothers after you die." The scholar continued talking, with an expression of not giving up.
Speaking of this, everyone must know that this scholar is Wu Yong, the second master of the Black Water Gang and also known as a military adviser.This time, he also thought that the challenge was too big, so he made three preparations, but he never expected that he didn't intend to fight with you at all, but that as soon as he used the advanced firearms, it was all over with a horizontal push .
Chapter 3: The Yu Family Seeking Death
At this time yesterday, the three brothers were still drinking and eating meat together, thinking about the bright future after this business was completed.But today, he was the only one left alive, so how could he be willing?
As for the brother Yan standing in front of him, his name is Yan Tao, and he has always had a very good relationship with Hu Huaihai, the leader of the Blackwater Gang. I heard that the boss Hu had saved his life in the past.Now this person has an additional identity that cannot be ignored, that is, the head arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
Head arrest is the so-called criminal police of the Public Security Bureau.Usually such a person is not only good at skills, but also very good at thinking, and being able to stand out in this team and become the chief catcher, it can be seen how powerful both skills and wisdom will be.
Even in this environment where officials gather in the capital and high-ranking officials and dignitaries emerge one after another, the identity of the chief arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is also resounding, and it can rarely be ignored.It is precisely because of his strength that Wu Yong found Yan Tao after escaping the attack of Langya, and wanted to avenge his brothers.
Naturally, this time the opponent is Yang Chendong.Wu Yong knew that it would be unrealistic to move the other party only by relying on previous favors.So when he asked Yan Tao out, he made another preparation, which was to give a big gift.
People are alive, and they live for nothing more than to have a mouth.If this condition can be met, how to live a better life, with more face, and with more status becomes a higher-level pursuit.People like Yan Tao naturally have face, and even some power, but because of the importance of his position, there are countless people who usually stare at him, and it is not a good idea to live a more extravagant life in terms of money. not many.
Wu Yong saw this exactly, and this time he took it as a breakthrough.Seeing that Yan Tao did not agree to avenge his elder brother and third younger brother, he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Yan, as long as he can avenge my elder brother and younger brother, all the benefits that our Black Water Gang has accumulated over the years are willing to give to you. "
"Huh?" Upon hearing the benefits of saving, Yan Tao seemed to be puzzled, but the quick beating at the corner of his eyes was still observed by the very smart Wu Yong. "Yes, it's the gold and silver we've plundered over the years, and together with Dagen, there are 80 taels. As long as we can get revenge, these are all Brother Yan's."
80 taels is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.Although Yan Tao, as one of the chief arresters of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, is often filial to himself, but compared to this number, there is still a lot of difference, and it would be difficult for anyone to be tempted.
Wu Yong on the other side has already used his trump card, so he will naturally not stop, and continues to work hard to say: "Brother Yan, although the matter between you and our Black Water Gang is secret, it is true that there are no clues at all. If you want to find it, you can do it. If you are a loyal and courageous man, you must know what kind of relationship we have before, will you forgive me? But with the 80 taels of silver, it will be different. You don’t have to do this trap anymore. Boss, you can go far away at any time and find a place that no one knows to be a rich man, wouldn't it be great at that time?"
On the one hand, it is a threat, on the other hand, it is an advantage, but it shows the game of steamed buns and sticks.And when Yan Tao heard these, there was no doubt that there were thunders one after another, even if he wanted to treat the things in front of him peacefully, he might not be able to.
I don't know how long it took, maybe it was soon, or maybe it was a cup of tea, or maybe half an hour, and finally heard the sound of his long exhalation.Obviously, he has made a decision, "This matter is troublesome, you should stay here first, don't worry, this is one of the strongholds under my jurisdiction, no one will find out here."
Yan Tao agreed, and Wu Yong said with a smile on his face: "I will listen to Brother Yan, and I will just stay here."
Wu Yong is confident enough that Yan Tao won't do anything to him?He didn't see the benefits, and he didn't see the other brothers. Who knew if he had left any backhands outside. Once something happened, his relationship with the Blackwater Gang would probably be revealed to the world.
With this reliance, Yan Tao naturally didn't dare to use any crooked ideas.Even if there is, it can only appear when Yang Chendong is killed, and when he gets the money and wants to die.
Seeing Wu Yong's sense of humor, Yan Tao nodded in satisfaction, "It's just that since we have to prepare, money is always indispensable."
"Brother Yan, don't worry, I will arrange someone to bring the money over at night. I wonder if 40 taels of silver is enough?"
"Enough." Yan Tao replied happily.In a sense, the 40 taels of silver were taken out of the 80 taels he deserved. According to the rules of the world, half of the deposit must be collected first.From this point of view, Yan Tao is really ready to help.
After discussing the matter and appeasing Wu Yongzhi, Yan Tao left the Chengshun Inn, but he didn't go in the direction of the criminal department's office, but walked around the street a few times as if bored, making sure no one saw him. After arriving at him, he headed towards Yufu.
Yu Shiyue, the current Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the current Emperor Daizong's trust, should have a bright future and a bright future.
It was only because of a conflict with the loyal and courageous Duke Yang Chendong that his grandson Yu Xiong was sentenced to be beheaded, and his eldest grandson Yu Yuanbi also suffered some hardships in prison.In addition, Xu Youzhen was assigned to the Ministry of Punishment to take up the position of Zuo Shilang, with the intention of replacing him. The Yu Mansion, which was supposed to be full of traffic, became much quieter.
This kind of quietness is comparatively speaking. After all, he is still Minister of the Ministry of Justice, he still has St. Pang, and there are still many officials who come to visit every day.When Yan Tao came here, he could only enter through the side door in his capacity.
Chief arrester of the Ministry of Punishment sounds like a very prestigious title, but in Shangshufu, it is nothing more than a petty official.If it wasn't for Yan Tao who was promoted by Yu Shiyue and had been to Yu Mansion before, the concierge here knew him, and it would be even more difficult to enter through the side door.
And even if you enter the Yu Mansion, you may not be able to meet Lord Shangshu.It took more than an hour to wait in a slightly remote hall.After I didn't know how many pots of tea I drank, I finally heard the sound of footsteps outside the door.
"The master is meeting guests in the front hall, please wait a while for the chief arrester." The steward of the Yufu who was in charge of leading him said with a formulaic smile.
"Okay." Yan Tao knew that he was just superficially polite.Regardless of whether Lord Shangshu is really meeting other people, if you want to meet them with your own status, you must wait a little longer, this is where you can show your majesty.
Speaking of which, Yan Tao's skills are very good, even in the Jianghu, he has a great reputation, and it is not too much to be called a first-class master.It's just that in the general environment of emphasizing literature and suppressing military, not to mention a good headhunter, even a general who killed the Quartet on the battlefield would not have any status in the Minister's Mansion.
This is the rule under the influence of Confucianism.Warriors are not valued, and they are regarded as simple-minded and well-developed existences. Such people have no future at all, and may even become the main factor of civil strife; merchants are suppressed, probably because they are regarded as Profit is a plan, such a person, who has a milk is a mother, has no king, no father, no country, and no family in his eyes. He can do anything for profit, and can betray anyone.
Having said that, Yan Tao sat in a side hall, and stayed for more than half an hour.It's just that he is sitting upright, without the slightest look of anxiety on his face, it can be seen that this is a person who can accomplish great things.
A little bit of time passed, and there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Yan Tao quickly got up and stood up, with a very respectful look, but when the visitor appeared, he raised his head with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Master Yu?"
"That's right, it's this young master. Grandfather knew you were coming, but there was something he couldn't get out of there, so he let me come. Hehe, catch the head strictly, take a seat." It was Yu Yuanbi who came, the one Yu Shiyue admired the most. The eldest son and grandson.In order to cultivate him, usually when it is not important, he will be arranged to receive guests, which is also a means and method of experience.
Master Shangshu did not show up, but Yu Yuanbi came, somewhat disappointing Yan Tao.But when he thought that Yu Xiong died at the hands of the loyal and brave Yang Chendong, he felt a little more hope in his heart. Maybe this person wanted revenge more than himself. It's better to fool around with such a book.
Having made up his mind, Yan Tao's expression calmed down a lot. He sat down first, and then seemed to be unintentional while holding a cup of tea and said, "Actually, I don't have anything to do here, I just think about Yu Xiong. I'm afraid the young master's first seven will be here soon, just come and pay homage to him."
Fortunately, Yu Xiong's name was suddenly mentioned.His accident can be said to be a disgrace to the entire Yu family, and now someone mentions it in person, and it is just a chief arrester, which makes Yu Yuanbi's expression change, and he said with a livid face, "Yan Tao, what do you want to do?" What? Don't you want to do it?"
"Young Master Yu calm down, things are not as you imagined, in fact, this time I came to arrest the head for this matter. Instead of always keeping people's mouths shut and not letting people mention the matter of Master Yu Xiong, It's better to avenge the revenge, that's the real solution, but I just don't know if Master Yu is right, or if he has the courage to do something?" As the chief arrester, Yan Tao usually interrogates prisoners , the ability to grasp people's hearts is still very strong, this time he used the aggressive method first, in order to force Yu Yuanbi to make a choice.
"Revenge? Hehe, you are just a small chief arrester with a low official position. How dare you talk about it lightly? Could it be that you have some skills?" Yu Yuanbi probably guessed Yan Tao's origin, but only thought of Yang Chendong's strength and ability , Still a little afraid of the other side can do anything.
Chapter 3 Fifteen: Chaos in the South
"As Young Master Yu said, I really have some skills in headhunting, at least I still have some available people." After Yan Tao said all this with a smile on his face, he suddenly leaned forward and said a name from his mouth.
It was Wu Yong's name that was said.The Blackwater Gang was wiped out overnight, and only Wu Yong, the second leader, escaped. Now it was the time of the manhunt, Yan Tao suddenly mentioned this person, and a smart person could guess what he meant.
"Oh?" Yu Yuanbi's expression lit up in an instant, and he finally knew why Yan Tao came to find him, and he really had some confidence in his feelings.
Just as Yu Yuanbi was thinking, Yan Tao's voice rang in his ears again, "If things are done well, we can take revenge. Even if we don't do well, it has nothing to do with us directly, no, and we won't lose anything. Besides Yes, as long as the plan is careful, there will be no accidents under the sudden attack. After all, human beings will have shortcomings, and human beings are flesh and blood, and their lives are as good as knives and guns."
"Not bad, not bad." Yu Yuanbi laughed out loud when he heard that, and then pointed to the teacup on the table and said, "Brother Yan, please use tea."
Changing his name from Yan Tutou to Brother Yan, this is Yu Yuanbi's intention to express his closeness, and it also means that he will support the other party.Yan Tao couldn't feel it, so he immediately laughed and drank his teacup and said, "Okay, let's have tea together. It is said that Master Shangshu's Fuchu tea is the best."
"Haha, if Big Brother Yan likes it, you can take some back with you later." Yu Yuanbi also said enthusiastically.After that, the two lowered their heads and plotted for a long time.After Yan Tao left satisfied, he went straight to his grandfather's study.
Yu Yuanbi took the initiative and agreed to cooperate with Yan Tao. This was not a whim, but he knew that if the Yu family wanted to develop, the stumbling block of Yang Chendong had to be removed. Otherwise, self-protection would not be possible. What about the lintel?
After understanding all this, he predicted that even if his grandfather knew about this matter, he would not object.Sure enough, he went into the study and explained Yan Tao's intentions to Yu Shiyue. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice was silent for a long time before nodding his head, "The matter is done in a more concealed way. It's just that since you want to do something, you can't give the other party the slightest chance." , you also go to arrange it, if necessary, if the timing is right, you can make up for it, in short, if you don't make a move, it must be a thunderbolt."
I never thought that my grandfather would overwhelm everything and ask him to do it himself.Yu Yuanbi couldn't help but said a little excitedly, "Grandpa, don't worry, I'll make arrangements right away. As long as there is a chance, I will definitely let him suffer from thousands of arrows piercing his heart."
