Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Zhen Wu glanced at the other servants, saw the expressions and reactions of the other servants, and after confirming that this person was Zhao Yu, he looked at Zhao Yu with disdain, then walked over without saying a word, and swung the knife.

Just like what Zhen Wu said a long time ago, killing someone is very simple, it's just a one-shot thing.

After Zhen Wu finished chopping, he turned around and walked towards the door without taking another look. Zhao Yao, who was still twitching as he was dying, arrived at the door, and Zhen Wu called Zhang Wu.

"Go and interrogate everyone, but anyone who knows about offering a reward for murder will not be left behind."

After Zhang Wu nodded to accept the order, the people who led him started to get busy.

Zhen Wu was like a tall and straight green pine, standing at the gate of Wang Yuan's house, listening to the faint silver bell in his ears, waiting silently.

……

Chapter 194 - Income

This matter must be classified as offering a reward for killing, and it was offering a reward for killing him.

This is Zhen Wu's purpose.

That's why he wanted to kill all the people who knew about the bounty offer.

But he killed like this, not without consequences.

How domineering he was just now, when he faces the accountability of the Chief Secretary and the Prince Commander, he will definitely be in such a mess. This is how things are in this world, and no one needs to blame others.

Fortunately, Zhen Wu can't, he has weighed this matter before, he can bear the price, and he has to do this thing, because when there are people from the rivers and lakes haunting his house, this matter is no longer It's Auntie's business again.

a long time.

Zhang Wu finally settled the matter. He came to Zhen Wu's side and said, "Two people have been interrogated, what about the others?"

Zhen Wu hummed, and fell into thinking again. If other people didn't even know about offering rewards to kill people, then they probably didn't know why Zhen Wu and them became enemies. In this way, King Qin's scandal would not erupt in Beiping City.

Thinking of this, Zhen Wu couldn't help showing a wry smile, was he covering up for King Qin?The next moment Zhen Wu comforted himself, he was just a small boat on the rough sea of ​​this era, how dare he slam the giant ship hard, and if Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to clean up Qin Wang Zhu Xi, how could he not find out?

After all, you have no decision-making power.

Whether the king of Qin is dead or alive has no direct relationship with him.

"Others..." Zhen Wu said: "Others, tell the inspector to take over. Tell the inspector about the reward for me, and then you can take them back to the camp."

"What about Erniang Liu?"

"Kill it too. It's not necessary to keep my aunt and the others involved."

Zhang Wu nodded, then came to his senses and asked, "What about you?"

Zhen Wu turned his head to look in the direction of Qingshou Temple, his eyes fell on the twin pagodas, he sighed and said, "I'll go to command the envoy to plead guilty."

Zhang Wu watched as Zhen Wu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end.

He also knew that this matter must always be explained to all parties.

At this moment, Liu Erniang shouted at Zhen Wu struggling: "I have something to say, I have something to say, I can help you."

Zhen Wu turned his head to look, Liu Erniang looked anxiously at Zhen Wu with a pair of fox eyes, her pretty face was full of seriousness, Zhen Wu shook his head amusedly, and didn't intend to talk to Liu Erniang.

But Liu Erniang became even more excited when she saw this, and quickly shouted: "You will definitely be held accountable for leading troops to kill people like this. If you don't have a good reason, beheading is not an exaggeration. I can testify for you. The testimony is Wang Yuan offered a reward to offend you first, and with me as a witness, your reasons for killing people are sufficient, so that your guilt can be mitigated."

Zhen Wu had already taken a step, but when he heard this, he took it back.

It's not easy for a Jianghu woman to have such insight, and to be able to say this sentence when she is in danger.

But she still underestimated Zhen Wu's weight.

Zhen Wu would be demoted at most, and decapitation is impossible.

However, even so, Liu Erniang aroused Zhen Wu's interest, and he waved at Liu Erniang.

The sergeant walked over with Liu Erniang, Zhen Wu waved his hand and dismissed the sergeant, looked at Liu Erniang with interest and asked.

"Help me testify?"

Liu Erniang took a deep breath, and she knelt down in front of Zhen Wu. She knew that this was her only chance to survive, so she said very positively.

"Yes, I can testify for you. Even if you ask me to say something, I will say it. I will not change it even if I am tortured. I just ask you to spare my life this time. I, Liu Erniang, will follow you all my life and obey your orders. I will do whatever you ask me to do, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.”

"Vote for me?"

Zhen Wu couldn't help laughing: "I don't need you as a quack."

Liu Erniang quickly said all her bargaining chips: "I still have a few people in Baoding Mansion, all of whom can take orders from you, and I know many gentry families in Baoding Mansion, I can help you make money."

Zhen Wu, who was going to refuse, suddenly fell into deep thought when he heard about Baoding Mansion.

Baoding Prefecture?

In the future, Jingnan seems to have fought a long battle in Baoding Mansion, so is it useful for him to accept someone now?

After thinking about it, Zhen Wu asked: "Are you going to be named in the government?"

Liu Erniang nodded, but then shook her head again and said: "The official name is Liu Erniang, but I have a legitimate identity in Qingyuan, and the official cannot recognize me as Liu Erniang."

Ah.

This made Zhen Wu never expect that it was really a tricky rabbit, but if Liu Erniang was so shrewd, how could he be caught by him.

Zhen Wu couldn't help but asked, "I don't think you're an idiot, why was it so easy for me to catch you this time?"

Liu Erniang gave a wry smile.

"It's a coincidence that I was on the way to Beiping, and I suddenly received a reward. I didn't bring anyone with me. After entering Beiping, I just wanted to give it a try. If I couldn't do it, I planned to go back and hand it over to other people. Make a move, make a difference in the middle, unexpectedly, just try, and be caught by adults."

Zhen Wu nodded and understood, it turned out to be careless.

He took a serious look at Liu Erniang, and suddenly his heart moved. After all, after accepting her, there is no need to say, in case it is useful, besides, it is just a matter of raising his hand to spare her life.

Totally give it a try.

Zhen Wu finally thought about it again and said: "The last question, if you say it well, you will live. If you can't say it well, there is no need to say more."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu stared into Liu Erniang's eyes and asked, "How can I trust you? After you spare your life, you can run away."

Liu Erniang's heartbeat immediately started beating fast, she thought quickly, she knew her fate would be in the next few sentences, but she opened her mouth several times, but couldn't get it out, she always felt that it wasn't enough Let Zhen Wu trust.

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, and sweat broke out on her delicate forehead, but even so, she couldn't think of what to say in order to gain Zhen Wu's trust.

At this time, Zhen Wu's voice sounded: "Remember to testify at the Yamen, you have to say that the person who was offered a reward is me. As for the others, you can find your own way."

Liu Erniang raised her head sharply, but at this moment Zhen Wu had already turned to talk to Zhang Wu.

Zhen Wu ordered: "For a while, remember to hand over the righteous man who tipped us off to the yamen to prove to us that we were really offered a reward, and that's why we killed people in a rage."

Zhang Wu glanced at Liu Erniang and nodded.

After Zhen Wu finished speaking, he stretched his waist: "I'll leave this to you." Then, Zhen Wu turned his head and glanced at Liu Erniang again. Erniang was talking nonsense in the yamen, if she really was talking nonsense, she would definitely not be able to leave the gate of the yamen, Zhen Wu smiled lightly, and without stopping, walked to the side of the horse, turned on the horse and headed towards Yan Wang's mansion.

At this moment, Liu Erniang was already slumped on the ground, and walked through the gate of hell again, causing her tears to flow down involuntarily.

No one knew what kind of psychological pressure she had just endured.

At this moment, in Yanwang Mansion, the commanders of the prince's commander Si Li Sanwei and the commanders have all gathered together.

Listening to the discussion of the three commanders, Xue Bin couldn't help but panic.

In fact, many days ago, Zhen Wu got angry with him, and he nodded in agreement, but the problem was that he didn't expect Zhen Wu to go to the city, so when Zhen Wu sent someone to inform him of this, he thought Without even thinking about it, he hurriedly rode his horse and came towards Beiping City.

After entering Prince Yan's mansion, they even went directly to Guan Tong, the commander of their right guard.

Guan Tong is a bit of a man who is not good at leading the army to train soldiers, but he has an advantage that he is willing to delegate power and is good at pondering human nature, so he knows how much Zhu Di values ​​​​Zhen Wu, and he has always regarded Zhen Wu as a treasure.

But when he knew that their right back's baby pimple was going to make a big deal again, he almost jumped up from his chair.

After thinking about it, he quickly sent people to persuade Zhen Wu, even if he didn't hesitate to tie Zhen Wu back, and sent people to notify the other two guard commanders.

He knew that the right guard couldn't handle this matter.

The entire Prince Commander has to give an explanation to the Chief Secretary and the Judiciary, at least what to do for other departments to see, otherwise it will not appear that their Prince Commander has no rules, and that the Prince Yan's army is lawless? !

……

Chapter 195 - Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Yuying.

Zhen Wu was riding a horse on the way to King Yan's mansion, and when he was walking, he bumped into Guan Tong's personal guard head-on.

The head of Guantong's bodyguard is called Du You, a rather delicate young man.

He was still in a hurry, but when he saw Zhen Wu riding a horse, he couldn't help but put on a wry smile, and cupped his fists on the horse and said, "Qianhu, you won't have already done the work." Is it over?"

Zhen Wu grinned, then pretended to be unhappy and said, "Look at what you said, how much effort do you need to spend on these little thieves."

Du You opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end, he just sighed: "You... you and the commander explain."

"Aren't I going to apologize now?" As he spoke, Zhen Wu asked: "Is our commander angry?"

Du You thought for a while, and told Zhen Wu all about Guan Tong's reaction, and then made a special point: "The commanders of the other two guards have also arrived, you still have to think about your speech in advance."

Zhen Wu nodded and began to think.

Seeing this, Du You stopped bothering.

After a while, a group of people had already entered Yan Wang's mansion, and went straight to the commander. When they arrived at the place, Du went in first to inform, and after coming out, let Zhen Wu go in by himself.

As soon as Zhen Wu entered, his eyes swept away, and he couldn't help but want to scratch his head.

In the room, there were only three commanders, who seemed to be asking for guilt.

Guan Tong glared at Zhen Wu angrily, and asked, "Tell me, how many people were killed?"

Zhen Wu shrunk his neck and said, "The group of gangsters who attacked and killed me killed all of them on the spot, about 20 people, and then there were five people who were suspected of buying me to kill me behind the scenes, and I killed all of them."

The commander of the left guard sat firmly on Mount Tai and just drank tea quietly, while the commander of the central defender was named Tang Yun. scold.

"Who gave you the guts to lead soldiers into private houses! Is there no Yamen in Beiping City? Can't I uphold justice for you? You even acted on your own initiative with anger, did you take Wang Fa in your eyes?!"

Zhen Wu was prepared for accountability, but he also pretended to be terrified.

"Convicted of the crime in a humble position, I am willing to receive punishment."

Seeing that Zhen Wu's confession was sincere, Tang Yun didn't try to quibble. Although he was full of complaints and honesty, he didn't want to say anything else. He just snorted angrily and stopped going to see Zhen Wu.

And Guan Tong pointed at Zhen Wu with a look of hating iron but not steel, and kept saying 'you' and 'you', wanting to get angry but reluctant.

Pointing, Guan Tong remembered an important question.

"You said someone bought you to kill you, but do you have evidence?"

Zhen Wu couldn't help grinning, but then he immediately took it back and said, "There are witnesses, and they have already been taken to the yamen."

When Guan Tong heard this, he immediately relaxed a lot, and he turned to look at Tang Yun and the two of them.

"You say, what should we do about this matter?"

Tang Yun looked at Zhen Wu and nodded his head slightly. Although Zhen Wu always makes troubles, he is not stupid. If there is a witness, things will be much easier to handle.

He pondered for a moment, then said: "If there are witnesses, the problem is not so serious. At least they have something to say to the chief secretary and the judge."

This sentence just fell.

The commander of the left guard who had been drinking water at the side suddenly put down the teacup and said firmly, "But it's not enough."

He turned his head to look at Guan Tong: "First beat Zhen Wu with twenty army sticks and lock him up. The three of us don't rest anymore. Let's go to the procuratorate to settle the case of buying a murderer. As for Zhen Wu For Wu's follow-up punishment, I should write to His Highness and let His Highness decide, what do you think?"

Tang Yun nodded, he had no objection to this handling, and felt it was extremely appropriate, but he still couldn't help but glared at Zhen Wu and warned: "Don't rely on His Highness's favor to act recklessly, since you said someone bought the murder If you want to attack and kill you, we will believe it, but if you fabricate the facts and act as a public revenge, even if His Highness spares you, we will definitely not tolerate it."

Zhen Wu's heart trembled, but after thinking about it, he felt relieved. Although his original intention this time was to avenge himself, the other party had indeed attacked and killed him first, and there was indeed a conspiracy.

"The humble official dare not lie. The corpses of more than [-] people from the Jianghu family in the Liang family are still there. If the humble official hadn't prepared for it, even if the humble official did not have to worry about his life, the people who walked with me at that time were afraid that they would not be able to be preserved. That's why the humble official Get angry and go straight to the door."

There was competition among the three guards of the guards, and there were many quarrels in the past, but to outsiders, the three guards themselves were a whole, so after hearing what Zhen Wu said, Tang Yun nodded and said in relief: "Okay, you don't have to worry too much about it." Worried, if you dare to attack and kill our guards, you can't let them go lightly."

At this time, Guantong was not confident, and asked tentatively: "It is true that the military stick should be used, but let's discuss it again. I think it is unnecessary to be imprisoned..."

Before he finished speaking, Guan Tong couldn't speak.

Tang Yun and the two looked at Guantong and frowned dissatisfied.

Both of them were speechless.

Grandma's, the guardian is not the guardian of the law, this is enough to accommodate, if it is just a few hits with the army stick, who can't see that they are fooling people, this makes outsiders think of their guards.

Seeing this, Guan Tong sighed helplessly, walked to Zhen Wu, patted Zhen Wu on the shoulder, and then shouted to the outside in a deep voice: "Come here, beat Zhen Wu with twenty army sticks, and then lock him up." , wait and see."

The sergeant who came in clasped his fists to accept the order, and took Zhen Wu down to execute the punishment.
