Chapter Ninety-Six: Friends with Poison and Friends with Humility
Zhenyan thought that if he wanted to trap himself with such a simple set, then he would be in vain for so many years.
"Wu Xianggong, when will I have a head of my door."
Wu Shitai saw that Zhenyan was not fooled, so he told Zhenyan that he was definitely a friend of the beggars, as for how to know, it was inconvenient to say.
Seeing that Wu Shitai was secretive, it was difficult to say anything, and said to Wu Shitai: "Since this friend is unwilling to talk more, then we won't bother much, so we will leave first." ”
Wu Shitai saw that Zhenyan was leaving, so he said to Zhenyan: "Old man, don't worry, in fact, I have something I want the old gentleman to tell Suo Beggar." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Mr. Suo, if they want to make trouble, my young owner is quite rich and willing to fund, but after all, this matter is a headless business, so it is not good for my young owner to come forward directly, and it is understandable that Suo beggars are there."
Zhenyan trembled in his heart, no wonder Hao Ren, the big inner guard, would be dispatched, it turned out to be such a big thing.
The truth did not leak his expression, and said to Wu Shitai, they all knew the danger of this matter, this young owner was willing to help them, they were naturally grateful, and they would never embarrass the young owner.
When Wu Shitai heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, went to a bowl of local rice wine, and toasted a bowl of mantra.
After drinking the mantra, he told Wu Shitai that no one knew if Hao Ren would come back, and it was better for him to leave here first.
Wu Shitai didn't stay, let people send the entanglement, the truth was not polite, after accepting the entanglement, he asked for two horses, and then he left with Shang Tianliang, as for the two sedan chairs, they didn't care.
Walking on the road, the mantra has been silent, and after walking like this for a while, Shang Tianliang said to the mantra: "Master, what should be done about this matter?" ”
"This is a great credit, with this credit, what kind of divine sword do we have to wait for." Zhenyan said excitedly, and after Shang Tianliang heard it, he said hesitantly: "Master, since Wu Shitai is going to be our friend, even if this matter has great merit, we should not betray him. ”
"Pedantic, pedantic, you are really pedantic, do you know Lin Quan, Lin Quan's guy betrayed the ghost mansion to have such a status. In these years, people don't kill for themselves, friends, friends are worth a few dollars. If you want to get ahead, you lose your set. When the mantra was said here, he realized that he had lost his words, and pretended to be kind and said to Shang Tianliang: "Tianliang, these outsiders are originally stepping stones, and the loyalty and benevolence of the saints are all said to their relatives, not to outsiders. Wu Shitai has no kindness to us, why should we protect him. ”
When Shang Tianliang heard this, he nodded as if he didn't understand, and said to the mantra: "Master, what you said is also right. However, we don't know who his young owner is, and there is no evidence, so when the time comes, the young owner will be up and down, won't we be at a loss. ”
"Why do you think I received these letters of silver, you can see the words on the silver envelope."
The mantra took out the silver seal, which was covered with the seal of Longqing underneath, and said to Shang Tianliang: "When we get to the yamen and take this up, which of the officials is unwilling to make meritorious service, even if they are not willing to make meritorious service, who doesn't want to make a comparison." ”
"But what's in it for us?"
"If we find out the real evidence, then we are naturally the first merit, if not, it can be regarded as having a friendship with the Yi'an prefect, and when the time comes, we can let him help introduce it, and we can also go to offer the sword, do you think those old things in Daomen are willing to give us a piece of the pie? When the time comes, I am afraid that they will come back and rob them, and I will lose my martial arts, so I can't stop them. ”
Speaking of the mantra, Shang Tianliang's expression was gloomy, saying that he was useless, had no talent, and followed the mantra for a while, and his martial arts had not improved at all.
Zhenyan thought that this Shang Tianliang would grow up, and what he taught him was just a simple breathing method, at best, it was to strengthen the body.
Thinking of himself now, Zhenyan decided to fax the kung fu to Shang Tianliang, but this kung fu could not be passed on in one go, otherwise he would be useless to Shang Tianliang.
That night, they went to a village, and after staying there, the mantra recited the Ranga Sutra to Shang Tianliang, but this time, it was a very superficial part.
Contrary to Zhenyan's expectations, Shang Tianliang really had a talent for martial arts, and the next morning, he had already found his sense of qi.
The mantra also taught Shang Tianliang sword moves, and Shang Tianliang learned sword moves very quickly, but Manyan was extremely jealous and uneasy in his heart.
So he deliberately exposed the hole in this sword move, such as a move to draw sand with a Xuanniao, this move requires a small sword circle, but Zhenyan deliberately drew a large sword circle, which is no problem for dealing with outsiders, but if you deal with a master, the master can cut directly into it, and you can cut off Shang Tianliang's arm.
Zhen Yan saw Shang Tianliang's sword moves, and every time he saw Shang Tianliang being ignorant and unaware and demonstrating his sword moves full of loopholes, Zhen Yan couldn't help but smile.
With this smile, he naturally said to Shang Tianliang that Shang Tianliang practiced well and was talented, and he would soon be better than the blue.
When they arrived at Yong'an City in April, the mantra went to the yamen and whispered in the ears of the officials: "Tell the prefect that I am going to sue someone for rebellion." ”
The official didn't react at first, and when the mantra was said for the second time, he trembled and hurriedly stumbled forward to inform the prefect.
Soon the official said a request to the mantra, and when they entered the back hall, the mantra's sword was removed, and the manain monk Tianliang came to the living room, and the prefect said a little impatiently: "Excuse me, who are the two of you, and whether this matter is true." ”
The truth said that the matter was said, and as for why Wu Shitai said it, he also said that Wu Shitai mistook himself for a beggar.
Seeing that the mantra mentioned Hao Ren, the Fu Cheng on the side said to the prefect: "My lord, it is true that some time ago, Hao Escort went to the tea horse ceremony. ”
After hearing this, the prefect thought that he would rather believe it than not, so he asked the truth and who this young owner was.
The truth took out the silver seal, the prefect took a look, and attracted the catcher, and after the catcher saw it, he said to the prefect: "It should be Zhang Longqing, a native of Xijing." ”
"Bring me the man."
After the arrest was ordered, he went to Zhang Longqing's store, Zhang Longqing happened to be in the store to reconcile the accounts, and after the arrest was about to arrive, he shouted: "Who is Zhang Longqing." ”
Zhang Longqing hurriedly got up, saluted them and said, "Official, the youngest is Zhang Longqing, I don't know what happened to several officials." "Quickly gave the ticket to Yiyang, saying that the prefect was affectionate, so he was going to bring shackles to Zhang Longqing.
Zhang Longqing has been wandering for so many years, and he can be regarded as having learned a lot of sophistication, so he hurriedly took out the silver and said to the catcher: "A few officials, even if they are businessmen, they are also decent people, and they also ask a few officials to give a decent one, and before going to the yamen, they are in shackles." ”
When the silver arrived, the shackles were naturally not easy to put on, nodding quickly, Zhang Longqing took out the silver taels again, and asked in a low voice what he had done.
When he saw the silver, he said to Zhang Longqing: "Shopkeeper Zhang, you better keep a little more silver to take care of, you have a big deal of rebellion this time." ”
When Zhang Longqing heard this, he was like being struck by lightning, and he was there, and then he mixed it directly.
I have seen a lot of these catches, pinching people, pouring cold water, and soon Zhang Longqing woke up, and then explained to Xiao Er, go and invite the young master to come.
After Zhang Longqing finished his instructions, he went to the yamen with these officials.
Fortunately, because this matter is too much to do, the prefect did not dare to ascend to the court, Zhang Longqing arrived in the back hall, knelt on the ground, and after saluting, the prefect scolded loudly and said: "Zhang Longqing, you are so bold, you dare to make trouble." ”
"Adult, the little one is wronged, the little one is wronged."
"Hmph, who came here here is not wronged, and someone will be tortured."
This Fu Cheng is a serious person, and he persuaded the prefect, but now this matter has not yet been clarified, so it is not good to use torture like this, and it is better to interrogate as usual.
So Fu Cheng asked Zhang Longqing if he knew a person named Wu Shitai, and Zhang Longqing said that he had never heard of it.
Fu Cheng asked Zhang Longqing if there was a caravan to go to the tea horse road, and Zhang Longqing said that his silk had always been transported to Xijing City to buy, so how could he go to the tea horse road.
After hearing this, the prefect was silent for a while, and then took the silver seal and said to Zhang Longqing: "There is nothing wrong with this silver seal, right?" ”
Zhang Longqing said that it was his own silver seal, but he gave the silver to many people, and it is not surprising that some people have this.
After hearing this, the prefect turned his heart and said that he didn't know if Zhang Longqing was lying, so he suppressed Zhang Longqing first and waited for it to fall.
When Zhang Longqing went down, the prefect asked people to summon the monk Tianliang, who was dissatisfied and reprimanded: "You two actually framed good people, and the crime is increased by one degree. ”
Zhenyan had already anticipated this situation, and said to the prefect: "Lord Prefect, I am from the Lin Mansion, and I have worked under Lin Wenzheng, if you don't believe it, you can write to the Lin Mansion and ask if there is a person like me." ”
Fu Cheng also looked at the mantra at this time, thought about it and said, "The person who blocked Liu Xiu's sword for Lin Wenzheng that day was none other than you." ”
Zhenyan looked at Fu Cheng, nodded, and said that it was indeed his own credit at that time.
Speaking the mantra, he talked about the events of that day, the location of some important officials, and after listening to it, it was almost the same as in his memory, so he said to the prefect: "This matter should not be fake, my lord, Lin Mansion is not easy to mess with." ”
The prefect then asked the official to go down and tell the mantra that this matter would be forgotten for Lin Quan's sake, and if the mantra was committed again, then leave himself alone.
Zhenyan was naturally unwilling to leave like this, and said to the prefect: "The little one has one more thing to tell, this matter Lin Wenzheng gave the little one a bus." ”
