Chapter 20 Repression(1/2)
In the past few days, the traffic flow on Kaiyuancheng Street has decreased significantly, and even the fewer stall vendors have set up stalls.
Moreover, the policemen who went to the streets were gone.
In addition, the rain has been continuous these days and the sun has not shown its face. The atmosphere in Kaiyuan City seems very depressing, which makes people feel a little breathless.
Xianming sat on the back seat, looked at a piece of paper in front of the table, and then looked at the judge kneeling below.
Zheng Lin, the magistrate of the previous Kaiyuan City magistrate, was not a good thing, and he accepted bribes in private.
Xianming has always wanted to find an excuse to remove Zheng Lin, but this time, he didn't need to make an excuse, so Zheng Lin took the initiative to resign.
Xianming knew that Zheng Lin was afraid of being implicated and angered Jiang Jinbao, so Jiang Jinbao would definitely not let him go.
The day before yesterday, in the court, Jiang Jinbao still did not take away his nephew Jiang Liqiang.
Some bottom lines cannot be crossed.
You can use power and money to break the law, but as long as the law enforcer keeps the bottom line, all your actions will appear ridiculous.
Not every official is a corrupt official, and not every official is afraid of power.
Coincidentally, health care is such an official.
Huangsheng knew that his skills were not as strong as Jiang Jinbao, and he could not beat Jiang Jinbao.
However, at worst, don’t want this black hat. At worst, you can just sacrifice your life.
Some things must be done by someone, right?
Those are two lives and two families. If health retreats, who will decide for them?
"You go, I will report to the court, and you will return home after you sue your illness." Jiang Jinbao waved his hand.
Zheng Lin stood up, hesitated for a while, said to Jiang Jinbao, "Take care", and then turned around and left.
Zheng Lin returned to his room and took out a small box from under the bed. It was his savings in Kaiyuan City for more than 20 years. As for how he got it, no copper plate was from regular channels anyway.
.
Holding this little box, Zheng Lin felt an unprecedented sense of security. This little box was his life.
Zheng Lin didn’t bring anything except this small box. With money, he was still afraid that he would not be able to buy what he wanted?
Zheng Lin walked out of the back door of the yamen, and a carriage was already waiting.
Zheng Lin looked around and found that there was no one, and he got into the carriage.
He arranged the carriage in advance. After leaving the city, he would take him straight to Chang'an. He had a cousin who was an official in Chang'an City. Although he was not a high-ranking official, he could make some money by following him.
Only when Zheng Lin watched the carriage leave Kaiyuan City, did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Next, the sea is wide and the fish leaps, and the sky is high and the birds are flying.
Zheng Lin was thinking that that idiot dared to offend Jiang Jinbao, a little magistrate, and he really thought he was very capable?
There is only one consequence of offending Jiang Jinbao, and that is death!
Zheng Lin seemed to be in Chang'an City and heard the news of his death, and there was a hint of compassion and a hint of disdain in his heart.
But at this moment, Zheng Lin found that the carriage seemed to be motionless.
"What's going on?"
Zheng Lin frowned and opened the curtain to question the coachman.
But the moment his head was stretched out, something cold was put on his neck.
This made Zheng Lin feel excited, it was a knife with a cold light!
Zheng Lin looked closely and was startled again. He was surrounded by a group of masked men holding swords.
"You...you..."
"What do you want to do?"
Zheng Lin stuttered when he spoke, wondering if these were bandits or if they were here to seek revenge.
If you have a bandit, this place is still very close to Kaiyuan City, so there will be no one.
When he was a verdict, he offended people a lot, and maybe he came to seek revenge.
The masked man with the knife turned his blade and pressed his blade against Zheng Lin's throat.
Zheng Lin couldn't help swallowing, and the Adam's apple touched the blade, and he was almost scared to pee.
"Dear heroes! Please spare your life! I have money, I will give you the money!"
Zheng Lin immediately sent his small box forward. Although he was reluctant to let it go, he had to have a life span, right?
At present, life saving is the first priority!
The masked man with a knife seemed to smile, took the box from Zheng Lin's hand, put it in his hand and weighed it. It was quite heavy, and then threw it to his companion behind him.
Zheng Lin swallowed again. Although most of the small box was made of silver notes, there were also a lot of gold and silver jewelry. It was difficult for him to hold it with both hands. These masked people could actually weigh it with one hand!
"Who are you?" Zheng Lin knew that ordinary bandits or seeking revenge could not have such strength?
I'm afraid it's...
The Jiang family?
Have you found it so soon?
"This money is enough to buy your life." said the masked man with a knife.
After hearing this, Zheng Lin breathed a sigh of relief. No matter who these people were, it seemed that his life had been saved.
"But we cannot be unfaithful. If you promise to let you die, you will die."
The masked man with the knife suddenly withdrew the knife.
Zheng Lin widened his eyes in horror. Before he could react to what was going on, a bloodline spurted out from his neck.
Zheng Lin covered his neck, breathing became more and more rapid, and finally fell down straight. The blood sprayed on his neck dyed the surrounding land red.
The masked people packed up their bodies, walked to the nearby woods and took out their horses, got on their horses and left.
The corpse will be eaten by wild animals soon, and the blood on the land will disappear after a rain or several carriages.
Half an hour later, Zheng Lin's small box appeared on the hygienic table.
Xianming narrowed his eyes and ordered people to divide the money in the small box into two parts and give it to the two victim families.
His Wei family is not a soft persimmon. Could his uncle Wei Shiping become the number one vanguard under the general of the Eastern Frontier?
"Mr. Wei is a good method, I admire him."
Only after his subordinates took the small box away, an old man suddenly appeared at the door that was sanitary.
"Gu Yuan!" Xianming narrowed his eyes, but unexpectedly it was the visit of the No. 1 Tianzi among the Black Rider.
"Do you recognize me?" Gu Yuan smiled, a little surprised.
"I saw it from afar when I passed the imperial examination." said Xianming.
"Then you have a good look and your memory is also good." Gu Yuan nodded.
"What's the matter with Lord Gu?" asked Xianming.
"I was so anxious when I was on the road, I was a little thirsty. Why didn't I invite some?" Gu Yuan said.
Huang Ming stood up and poured a cup of tea for Gu Yuan himself.
Gu Yuan rolled his eyes and placed the empty wine pot on the table.
"Let's talk about the main business first, and you can choose which one to go after you finish talking." said Xianming.
"You can kill those four people. After killing them, don't worry about it. Go to the Sword Sect." Gu Yuan said.
The fingers of hygiene are tapping on the teacup rhythmically, as if considering it.
"Why help me?" asked Xianming.
"With the truth, many helpers, few helpers, you are doing the right thing, why don't I help you?" Gu Yuan said.
"You are in the court, I'm afraid you are an alien?" Yingming smiled.
"The court? We black cavalry,
To put it in a broader range, it was considered a world of martial arts after all, but was controlled by the court." Gu Yuan took a sip of tea, feeling a little bitter, so he put down the tea cup.
"The new magistrate will arrive tomorrow, and after dinner in the evening, you can set off." Gu Yuan said.
"Even this is arranged? You will make me suspect that you are coveting my position as the governor." Xianming looked at Gu Yuan with a pretentious attitude.
"Do you think I want to take this hot potato? There is a ferocious beast from the Jiang family in Kaiyuan City. Anyone who comes to be the magistrate will feel uncomfortable."
"But the people who come this time should make the Jiang family uncomfortable." Gu Yuan smiled mysteriously.
"Who is here?" Ying Ming knew that Gu Yuan might not tell him, but he still asked.
"The person who came is Yu Bailing's younger brother." After Gu Yuan said that, he burst into laughter.
Yu Bailing, the top master of the world, is recognized as the tenth great sword saint in history.
