A matter of principle, no compromise

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Qingyunzi suddenly said: "My lord should also know that this court law is really ...... for tomb robbing."

At least on the bright side, there was no support for tomb robbery, and they were basically punished by severe punishment, and the Ming Dynasty was particularly cruel in this regard.

According to the provisions of the "Da Ming Law": Whoever excavates the grave and sees the coffin will have a rod of 100 and a flow of 3,000 miles; Those who have opened the coffin and see the corpse shall be hanged; Those who do not reach the coffin will be given a hundred rods and three years in prison, and the same is true for the soul and burial. If the grave is first pierced or not buried, and the person who robs the corpse shall be punished with a rod of ninety or two and a half years; Those who open the coffin and see the corpse are also hanged. Those who steal utensils and bricks and stones shall be counted as stolen goods, and all thieves shall be exempted. If the humble and the young are honored and the grave is long, they are the same as mortals; Those who open the coffin and see the corpse shall be beheaded; If the body is abandoned and sold to the grave, the same is the sin. If the land buyer knows, each cane is eighty, chasing the price into the official, and the land belongs to the relatives of the same clan, and those who do not know will not sit. If the grave of the young is honored with long hair, and the coffin is opened, and the corpse is found, he shall be covered with a hundred rods and three years; Above the small work, each decreases by one level. Whoever sends a grave of a descendant and opens a coffin to see a corpse shall have eighty rods. Those who move the burial according to the rites for some reason are not guilty of violating the law. If you destroy the dead body of another person, or abandon the dead body in the water, you shall have a hundred rods and three thousand miles each.

In the end, basically the tomb robber was caught, and it was a dead word - according to the weight of the Ming Dynasty board, eighty boards were played, and basically few people could survive without deliberately being ruthless or releasing water. And with the bad reputation of tomb robbers, it is unlikely that the officials will not be ruthless.

Now that Qingyunzi has agreed to do things for Dong Ce, he will definitely not be able to act so low-key in the future, so that he will be easily caught by the local government.

Dong Ce smiled slightly: "This, but there is no need to worry." When the time comes, the official will issue you a waist card and a document, saying that you will not accept it at night in the army, and the reason why you go to the local area is because some officials heard the news that Jiannu had entered the prison, and specially ordered the official to send people to investigate. You can rest assured that as long as it is involved in Jiannu, the local officials will never dare to be reckless, and they will not be able to afford it if something happens. Don't be afraid when the time comes, be arrogant, and put your big hat on your head. If you still dare to entangle, you can directly give a person the charge of fornicating with slaves, and see if he dares to say more! It's just a place to go, it's better not to go too far south, close to the left of this town, no one dares not to take this matter seriously. ”

And Dong Ce didn't say a word, who would be able to command Dong Ce, a fourth-grade general? Either it is a local military garrison, or the governor of a town, or even the governor of several towns. Either way, the local civil servants can't afford to provoke them. They don't dare not give this face.

When Qingyunzi heard this, he was relieved. Since Dong Ce is willing to take this matter directly, it shows that he really has this intention and values himself very much, and he does not throw himself out as a scapegoat at any time.

Dong Ce asked, "I don't know what to do next?" ”

Qingyunzi pondered for a moment and asked, "If the tomb is found, can someone transfer it on hand?" ”

Dong Ce didn't want to be so blatant now, but it didn't hurt this person's heart, so he said: "If necessary, one hundred and eighty people can be sent by the Dao Chief." ”

Qingyunzi wants this attitude, and he is very satisfied at the moment. Since he works for others, he naturally should share his worries for others, and he smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, you don't need to use your manpower for the time being, and it will save you trouble." The old man stayed here for a few days, and then went out to find some capable hands, and with them, he would get twice the result with half the effort. ”

Dong Ce advised: "You must be reliable, don't leak this matter." ”

"Don't worry, adults, they all know the roots, and the old man won't tell them the identity of adults. Besides, even if they knew, they wouldn't dare to chew their tongues! When he said this, a fierce light flashed in Qing Yunzi's eyes, and only then did he reveal a little bit of his domineering spirit.

Dong Ce nodded and stopped talking about it. Qingyunzi is experienced and old, and this piece is naturally more thoughtful than he thinks.

Zhang Mazi added another cup of tea, and Dong Ce suddenly asked, "Dao Chief, from the first time I saw you, this official had a doubt. ”

Qingyunzi said: "My lord, please speak." ”

There was a hint of a smile in Dong Ce's eyes, and he pointed to Qing Yunzi's dirty clothes and shoes with his toes exposed: "Dao Chang is a martial artist, how did he fall into such a field?" Monkey tricks on the streets for a living? ”

"Ahem......" Qingyunzi seemed to be choked by the tea, coughed several times in a row, and his face was a little red.

He suddenly slapped the table and said angrily to Zhang Mazi: "It's past noon, why haven't you eaten yet?" Do you want to starve your master to death? ”

Zhang Mazi pursed his lips, and said in his heart that if your old man wants to break away, I will say it directly, why bother like this? He reluctantly responded: "This is going to prepare food for your old man." ”

He looked at Dong Ce and said earnestly: "My lord, you ......"

"There's no need to buy food." Dong Ce waved his hand and said to Dong Yongzhen: "In this way, you go outside and tell them, let them go to Sihailou to order a table of wine and food to be sent here, and you and they will eat in Sihailou." After eating, I came here to find the official, and let Dong Zhongyong and the two go and buy the monkey, and every time the two of them have to cause something. ”

Dong Ce said to Qingyunzi again: "Does the Taoist have any favorite food and drinks?" And he commanded them to buy it. ”

Dong Ce's attitude of attaching importance to Qingyunzi made him very satisfied, and he hurriedly smiled: "Let Xiao Er go with them, he knows what I like to eat." ”

Zhang Mazi and Dong Yongzhen both responded, and the two went out.

Qingyunzi was very embarrassed to tell the truth.

It turned out that the reason why he was so embarrassed this time and came to Yanghe City in a different way was that he was forced to do so. Things are also simple, he organized a group of people to dig a large tomb in the Changzhou Mansion in Nanzhili, but before digging it did not inquire whose family it was, a group of people dug up the tomb like a transit locust, not only all the valuable things in it were snatched, but even the bones were pried out of the coffin and thrown all over the ground.

And it turned out to be a big disaster. beat

The owner of the tomb was actually the grandfather of a great man in the court. When the senior heard the bad news, he rushed back to his hometown overnight and cried with the monument. After collecting his grandfather's bones, he swore a poisonous oath that he would catch all of them, leaving no one behind, and cutting them with a thousand knives!

This senior official is powerful, has a high prestige among the government and the opposition, and the power he can use is also amazingly strong. After the issuance of the sea capture documents, all localities tried their best to solve the case, and the group of tomb robbers who actually did it were arrested within two months. Under torture to extract confessions, they also bit out Qingyunzi.

It's just that Qingyunzi's vein is very mysterious, and he often changes his image, and he rarely shows up. Those tomb robbers were all organized by Qingyunzi temporarily, and they were all masked when they met them, so not only did they not know what Qingyunzi's specific name was, where his roots were, and they didn't even know what he looked like, they only knew that he was the descendant of the Xieling Lux lineage. The government had no choice but to draw an extremely abstract portrait of him and post it everywhere.

Fortunately, Qingyunzi escaped the catastrophe and was not caught. But he couldn't get along anymore over there, and after being incognito for a while, he came to the north. He didn't dare to rob tombs anymore, didn't even dare to steal money, and put an end to all behaviors that might intersect with the local government. The money is spent, the money is tight, and the life is really not very comfortable.

If he hadn't met Dong Ce, he would have been prepared not to touch this business in the next few years, and he would have avoided the limelight first.

You must know that the few who were caught were obviously sentenced to hanging, but the big man replaced a few dead ghosts and carried them out by hanging. And those main masters were invited by him to Liu Xiaodao, the most famous master in the capital, in his own house, and chopped those prisoners to death one by one, one by one!

Each of them was slashed with a full 3,600 knives, one in three days, and it is said that the screams in his house continued for a whole month, and the blood flowed like a river! Two tomb robbers were scared to death, and even then, their bodies were cut off.

Thinking about this, with Qingyunzi's ability, I couldn't help but shudder.

Dong Ce listened, this is clear.

After finishing speaking, Dong Yongzhen came back, he went to pass the word, but he didn't go to eat, but came back to stay behind Dong Ce. Dong Cehe didn't say anything.

After the business was over, it was a small talk, and when it was about a cup of tea, Zhang Mazi came back with a food box, and brought out a lot of food from it and put it on the table. He smiled and said, "Master, I went to Defu Kee to buy your favorite smoked chicken and shochu." ”

It seems that Qingyunzi is really hungry, tearing off a chicken thigh with one hand and putting it in his mouth is a big bite, the soju is slapped open the mud seal, and he doesn't pour it into the bowl at all, he directly raises the wine jar and puts his mouth on it and gulps it down. A lot of liquor leaked out and dripped on the clothes, and soon it was a room full of wine.

He drank several big sips in a row, and then put down the jar and burped comfortably, sighed, and laughed, "Refreshing." ”

A little embarrassed, he said to Dong Ce: "I haven't drunk wine and eaten meat for many days, I'm really hungry, don't be surprised." ”

Dong Ce took a bite of food, ate slowly, smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, the Taoist is more casual, the official is not so particular." ”

Qingyunzi ate meat in his mouth, and began to reprimand Zhang Mazi again, Zhang Mazi rolled his eyes, and pretended not to have heard.

Dong Ce looked, the two of them got along with each other really interestingly, it seemed to be noisy and unruly, but in fact, they had an excellent relationship.

After eating, Dong Ce said goodbye, and before leaving, he gave Qingyunzi a hundred taels of silver, only saying that if it was not enough, he would find himself to get it. Let the family do things, you have to give some activity funds.

Qingyunzi was not hypocritical, and accepted the money generously.

Dong Ce called Zhang Mazi out again, and the two talked in detail for a while. ……
