Chapter 738: Take it away, let's faint blood

On November 22nd, Hanfu Travel Day, our family cheered for those young people.

If you see them on the street, please encourage them.

…….

Baoying's Zhishi official Li Keyuan, Gonggong Wei was able to spare his life, but Gaoyou's Qian Wenye, Gonggong Wei issued an execution order.

And it's an order to destroy the door!

This is the first time that Gonggong Wei has given such a harsh order since his two reigns.

is so ruthless, all because Qian Wenye wants his father-in-law Wei's life.

Gonggong Wei didn't want to suddenly call a guest to death and cut off the head one day, so he had to cut the head himself.

There is no mouth that cannot be pried open, and there is no secret that can be kept.

Under the harsh law, not many outlaws in Baoying City can survive to the end.

Although the Qian family has never been a jinshi or a lifter, it is almost a household name in Gaoyou.

People say that if the Qian family stomps their feet at home, they will tremble on the other side of the canal.

This is not to say that the Qian family is the official in charge of the canal, because the person in charge of the canal is the Yamen of the Governor of Caoyun, and the location is in Huai'an.

The Qian family can have such power and influence because they are the "Caokou" on the canal.

The rules of the temple are bright, and the rules of the rivers and lakes are dark.

This dynasty relied on the southern grain transfer to the north to supply the Beijing division and border defense, and for two hundred years, around the collection and transportation of grain, a set of intertwined unspoken rules system was grown, called Cao Gui, and it was Caokou that decided and implemented Cao Gui.

Those who can be Caokou are outlaws who dare to fight and kill, and the other is local powerful gentry.

At first, the small households thought that Caokou could provide them with protection, so they took refuge and asked Caokou to hand over the grain on their behalf to avoid extortion by the officials. Caokou was willing to take care of this matter, so he naturally formed a system of governance independent of the law.

Over the past two hundred years, this set of rules has been deeply rooted, and the original Caokou who fought for small households have become high-ranking Caokou one by one.

The Qian family is one of them.

Historically, the Cao Gang was officially established during the Yongzheng period of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, but now it actually has a prototype.

Most of the people engaged in the transportation are young and middle-aged boatmen along the canal, and some low-level scholars participate in it to give advice. Each Caokou is also well-organized, with cruel rules and family laws maintained, and has shown a certain degree of militarization.

For example, some Caokou already have flags and code words, and once something happens, they can mobilize about 1,000 people in a short period of time.

When Li Sancai, who was known for his ability to become the governor of Caoyun, he did not dare to be tough on those Caokou, mainly to appease, in order to avoid turmoil in Caokou and affect Caoyun.

Qian Wenye and Dong Sanlang are friends for eight worships, and the two are a nest of snakes and rats.

One robbed tickets in Taihu Lake in the early years, and the other grabbed land in the canal, both of which had human lives, and they all washed their hands and turned into a decent person in Gaoyou.

called his brother a eunuch and beat him to death, Qian Wenye was unwilling. But he was very clever and knew that it would be difficult to fight the Wei eunuch on his own, so he privately encouraged the gentry who were dissatisfied with the Wei eunuch's atrocities to raise a lot of money to buy the Wei eunuch's head.

If anyone does not offend me, I will offend others, and others will offend me.

Father-in-law Wei doesn't care what kind of Cao head Qian Wenye is, he only knows that this person must die, and Cao Yun is not under his control anyway.

Zheng Duo personally led his troops to carry out this order to destroy the door, and a total of 230 people were dispatched to attack the old mansion of the Qian family, which was located ten miles outside Gaoyou City.

When the sound of horses' hooves resounded outside the Qian family's compound, the people who guarded the courtyard asked who came, and the result was that his neck hurt, blood gushed like a pillar, and his body fell to the ground.

Most of the officers and soldiers of the horse team were from the Liaodong horse bandits and the Flying Tiger Army, and it may be reluctant to ask them to go into battle in a dignified manner, but if they are asked to do this murder and arson, it is very easy to do it one by one.

Zheng Duo looked at the Qian family who were already panicked in the courtyard and waved his hand at his subordinates.

The gate was quickly slammed open, and the officers and soldiers rushed in, and the torches in their hands reflected the entire Qian family compound.

After Qian Wenye was awakened in his sleep, he was quite bold, and rushed to the front yard with more than ten cronies, and was immediately furious when he saw the scene in front of him: "I am Yingzi Caokou Qian Wenye, who dares to break into my Qian family!" ”

A person walked out on the other side, glanced at him, and said, "My father-in-law said, let me take your head back." ”

What the?!

Qian Wenye's heart froze, and he immediately saw a few black objects suddenly thrown over from the opposite side. The black object was still smoking, and he didn't know it, but before he and his men could dodge, he heard a few rumbles, and then something seemed to hit his temple.

Zheng Duo stepped forward with a knife and swung it at Qian Wenye's neck, who was half-kneeling and had a hole in the iron piece in his temple.

Qian Wenye's head flew off his neck, and the Qian family let out an exclamation.

After his head rolled to the ground, Qian Wenye's eyes were still open and his mouth was open.

He seemed to see his own body, which was spurting blood into the sky.

"Father-in-law Wei has an order, except for the women, kill them all!"

Zheng Duo wiped the long knife on Qian Wenye's corpse, glanced at the other party's head, and had no expression on his face. It seems that it was not a man, nor a cow, nor a sheep, or even a pig, but a poor ant.

The Qian family's old mansion instantly became a hell on earth.

The horse team cut from the front yard to the back yard, and killed the men when they saw them, which frightened the women and maids of the Qian family into screaming again and again. They ran from place to place, and some of them sat on the ground in fright, as if the bones of their bodies had been torn apart, and they couldn't even move their fingers.

Qian Wenye, as the head of the canal, has his own enemies, so there are dozens of Cao Ding in the old house in case of emergency.

However, these Cao Ding are all good at fighting in groups, ambushing and killing people, but how are they a group of tiger and wolf opponents who have carried countless lives and rolled and rolled in the pile of dead people in Liaodong.

With little effort, half of Cao Ding was killed. The rest scattered and fled, and when they found out that they couldn't escape, they wanted to beg for mercy, and when they found that the other party didn't have any room to live, they had to fight hard.

In the end, along with the men of the Qian family, they fell in a pool of blood one after another.

Qian Wenye had three sons, and after the eldest son and second son were killed, the youngest son Qian Yongqiang was still resisting to the death. He likes to play with guns and sticks on weekdays, and his father likes him. It is also because of this ability that he has survived to the present.

It's a pity that no matter how good the sticks and fists are, they are also lonely.

When one of Qian Yongqiang's arms was cut off by two officers and soldiers opposite, at that moment, he remembered that a few months ago, in order to suppress the troublesome small households under Caokou, he cut off the arm of a twenty-year-old young descendant with a guillotine at the behest of his father, and then kicked the young man into the canal.

Is this retribution?

I don't know, he can't wait for an answer.

Half an hour later, the shouting and killing in the Qian family's compound stopped.

The nearby villagers looked at the Qian family's compound in horror, no one dared to see what was happening, and no one dared to go to the government to report the case. It's dark outside, and who knows if there is a murderer lurking on the road.

There are now more than 30 women left in the entire Qian family's compound, and they are driven into two rooms, and they hear the sound of turning over boxes and cabinets.

"Search, search room by room!"

Zheng Duo kept in mind Gonggong Wei's instructions - every effort we put in must be rewarded tenfold.

Boxes of silver were carried out of the cellar, and boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and jade were poured on the bluestone-paved ground and stained with blood......

………….

Gao Youwei left outside the thousand households.

Wei Gonggong signaled Xiao Tian to open the box, and the old man glanced in, and waved his hand: "Take it away, take it away, let's faint blood." ”

"Father-in-law, this is the account book." Zheng Duo handed over the booklet containing the items found from the Qian family.

Father-in-law Wei was in good spirits, took a closer look, and then closed it very satisfied.

In the end, he is a number of people in Gaoyou, Qian Wenye's belongings are not small, and the valuable objects found from his old house alone are less than 30,000 taels of gold and silver. In addition, there are thirteen shops and several properties in Yangzhou, Taizhou, Gaoyou, Huai'an and other places, but it is trickier to dispose of these.

"It's done well, and the brothers have worked hard, reward!"

Father-in-law Wei laughed, and Cao Wenyao over there also came over with an excited face: "Father-in-law, Zuo Qianhu sent someone to say that he is willing to surrender." ”

"What surrender?"

Gonggong Wei looked surprised, "Our family is the admiral of the Qin Dynasty, and he is a serious official and soldier of the imperial court, how can he surrender to our family!" ”

After speaking, he waved his hand: "No!" ”
