"No need to be punished, I'll move, I'll recruit all!"
Of course, Jing Bai knew what Zhou Xing wanted to ask, and at the same time, he could even take revenge on his life-saving benefactor, so how could he have any loyalty to Zheng Pusi?
"You dare!" Zheng Pusi was frightened by the souls of the dead, his body shook sharply, he came to Jing Bai, grabbed his neck, covered his mouth, and said angrily: "You think this official is unlucky, can you still live?" โ
Cui Geng was startled at first, then quickly put his mind at ease, and said: "I didn't expect that the world-famous secretary and supervisor is actually a rare martial arts master." How? Is it so hard that you want to kill people and kill them? โ
Zheng Pusi smiled bitterly: "If it is useful to kill people and kill people, why should the lower officials wait until now?" So, Cui Shangshu, let's talk? โ
"What are you talking about?"
"Even if you put forward conditions, as long as you don't interfere with me and take away Jing Bai, a white-eyed wolf, you can do it."
Cui Geng stretched out three fingers and said, "First, you handed over Jiang Sanbai to the official, there are too many murders on him, and today the official wants to eliminate harm for the people." โ
"No problem, Hu Sanlang, you take Cui Shangshu's people to arrest people. Can't catch people, Ben Xuanwei wants your head! โ
"Yes!" Outside the hall, a sturdy man said yes in a loud voice.
Cui Geng continued: "Second, I don't care how much money you have embezzled this time, at least I have to pay back 10 million yuan to this official." โ
In total, it is less than 30 million yuan of disaster relief funds, Zheng Pusi honored Wei Hou and others 10 million yuan, no matter how crazy he is in this disaster relief, several state capitals near Chang'an will always have to get by, and millions of yuan will always be spent. Therefore, Cui Geng asked him for 10 million.
"This ......," Zheng Pusi looked embarrassed.
"Huh?"
"Well, I agreed. However, some of the money has already been spent, and you will have to allow the officials to raise it for three days. Three days later, I will give 10 million dollars. โ
"Okay, this official believes in Zheng Jianzheng. Write an IOU......"
Zheng Pusi was still covering Jing Bai's mouth, and he couldn't free his hand, so he could only barely press a handprint.
Then, Cui Geng put forward a third request, not to replace Xue Shu's position as the assassin of Zizhou with Jing Bai.
It was only now that Zheng Pusi vaguely realized where the news had leaked. Now, however, regret is useless.
Cui Geng came today for three main purposes, first, to kill Jing Bai and Jiang Sanbang to avenge Shi Wenxiu, and second, to let Zheng Pusi return the embezzled money. Third, complete the entrustment of Zizhou Thorn Shi Xue Shu.
Although looking at Zheng Pusi's meaning now, it is absolutely impossible to hand over Jing Bai again, but Cui Geng has generally achieved his goal.
In the final analysis, now that Li Xian is in power, Empress Wei is an invincible existence.
Cui Geng really didn't need to completely tear his face with Empress Wei's henchman Zheng Pusi, even if Zheng Pusi really had some shady conspiracy, he didn't want to get to the bottom of it.
As for Shi Wenxiu? Cui Geng is not a saint, and he is right to do this.
However, the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop.
Just when the atmosphere gradually eased, Feng Changqing walked in with an old man in his fifties, bowed slightly, and said, "Lord Qiyu, this is Jiang Sanbang, I am fortunate to be humiliated!" โ
"Okay, verify his identity, and kill him."
If you want to clarify the canonical punishment, it is likely to cause extraneous branches. For example, Jiang Sanbang killed Shi Wenxiu, with the conditions of this era, how can there be any definite evidence? In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Cui Geng directly gave the order to kill.
"Whoa!"
Feng Changqing agreed and raised the steel knife.
At the moment of life and death, Jiang Sanbang was in a hurry, pulling his neck and shouting: "Don't kill me!" Don't kill me! I can make meritorious deeds! โ
Feng Changqing smiled gloomily and said, "But my family, it's not rare for you to make meritorious contributions at all." Give me here! โ
"I'm the first, Zheng Pusi rebelled!"
"Rebellion is also ...... What? Conspiracy? This time, Feng Changqing couldn't calm down, and said, "My lord, what can I do?" โ
As it is today, Cui Geng is also a little dumbfounded, as a high-ranking official of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how much he pretends to be deaf and dumb, he can't ignore the big rebellion case.
He asked: "Jiang Sanbang, you said that Zheng Pusi rebelled, is there any evidence?" โ
"Yes! Yes! In addition to recruiting 500 of us, Zheng Pusi also secretly recruited 5,000 people, and practiced in Lushan, which is not far from here. โ
5,000 men and horses are enough to convict Zheng Pusi of a crime of conspiracy and intent to rebel. However, Cui Geng still has a plan: what if these people were arranged by Zheng Pusi for Empress Wei? It is not yet known what kind of attitude Li seems to have after learning about this.
He thought for a moment and said, "Is there anything else?" โ
"And ...... There are ......" Jiang Sanbang's eyes flickered, and he said: "After the little one said it, can Master Cui really spare my dog's life?" Or...... You swear aw? โ
Cui Geng said impatiently: "If you don't want to say it, forget it, cut it!" โ
"Don't mind, I say, I say! That's the case, we don't know what Zheng Pusi hit and made a set of crown clothes. Wear this garment all day and worship in a secret room...... You can search for it, and it is on the third floor of the Xingyun Building in this house, in the fifth room on the left. โ
The so-called crown dress is the clothes worn by the emperor when he ascended the throne and worshiped the heavens. Zheng Pusi wore a crown uniform, trained as a private soldier, and said that he had no intention of rebelling, who would believe it?
What does it mean to be conclusive? It's called conclusive evidence!
"You ......"
Gaba~~
When Zheng Pusi heard this, his heart shook violently, and as soon as his two arms competed, he twisted Jing Bai's neck, and said with a crying voice: "Damn, how do you know about this?" โ
Cui Geng said: "What? Jiang Sanbang "also" knows? Could it be that someone else knows about this? โ
"And Jing Bai, the turtle grandson!" Zheng Pusi scolded bitterly: "After he took refuge in me, he accidentally learned this secret, so he threatened me that he must help him become a third-grade assassin, otherwise he will report the matter to the official." โ
"It's strange, you still can't deal with a powerless grass people?"
"Oh, Jing Bai's grandson is fine. He told me that every five days, I would go out and talk to people to tell me that I was safe. But if I make the slightest disturbance, his accomplices will report to the police. I would rather believe it than believe it, so I had to agree to this condition. Who would have thought, not only did he know about this, but even Jiang Sanbang knew about it. โ
Jiang Sanbang said: "The surname is Zheng, do you think you are hiding it well?" As everyone knows, there are not many people around you who don't know about this. However, everyone depends on you for food, and they are too lazy to expose it. Hmph, I really don't know how you deceived Your Majesty and the Queen Mother just these two times? โ
After finishing speaking, he looked at Cui Geng flatteringly: "Master Cui, you see that the little ones have made meritorious contributions, this ...... This one...... Can you redeem the merits? โ
"Whether you can redeem the merits, the official can't say it, you better talk to the adults in the capital."
After all, what can Zheng Pusi do if he rebels? Can he, a god, subvert the Tang Dynasty?
Therefore, Cui Geng didn't want to get into this muddy water, and he didn't pay much attention to this matter, so he directly ordered someone to detain Zheng Pusi and his henchmen without interrogation.
Then, on the one hand, an official document was issued, ordering the surrounding states to send troops to encircle and suppress the bandits on Lushan; On the one hand, he wrote a piece of music and reported it to Chang'an City, asking Li Xian to make a decision.
On this day, Song Genhai sent a message in a panic, saying: "Lord Qiyu, the big thing is not good!" โ
"What's wrong?"
"The thieves on the Naru Mountain...... It's gone! โ
