Chapter 390 Not Stupid
Song Yuanshao's letter to General Li didn't say a single clear word, but it hinted that the new magistrate of Shiniu County had a back-up, and it was best not to mess with it, and to restrain himself and survive the past three years.
General Li was not an ordinary person to reach such a position. He immediately smelled danger, and then asked Lieutenant General Liu about the Zhao family's crime.
Lieutenant General Liu told everything he had learned in Shiniu County.
General Li yelled angrily: "Idiot Zhao Xingzong! Pretending to be a bandit and attacking the county government, doesn't that mean people are beating you upright? It's okay now. What people are labeling you as treason is how to take it off?"
Zhao Xingzong must die, but he cannot die here, let alone on the road. He must die in a prison cell in Shiniu County!
Vice General Liu took the order and turned to go out.
General Li said behind him: "Warn Zhao Xingzong and keep his mouth shut. At the worst, I can save children under ten years old!"
Vice General Liu said: "Yes!"
Aunt Zhao was still waiting to see Zhao Xingzong and ask what was going on. Instead of waiting for Zhao Xingzong to come, a few vicious and rough ladies came.
Aunt Zhao knew these people. They were the executioners who punished women in the mansion. She was immediately frightened and asked, "What are you doing here?"
A woman smiled cruelly, "Of course I'm sending my aunt off on her way!"
Aunt Zhao said in disbelief: "No! How could the general send me away? My mother-in-law and I have done great things for him!"
The mother-in-law took out the rope and said, "The slaves don't know."
Aunt Zhao was so frightened that she shivered, "You want to tie me up? Where are you going to send me?"
The ladies laughed, as if looking at a fool.
Before Aunt Zhao could ask them why they were laughing, the rope strangled her neck. She didn't need to ask anymore, and she understood everything at once.
After checking his breathing and making sure he was out of breath, he rolled up a straw mat, threw it on a cart, pushed it to a small forest outside the house and buried it hastily.
This grove is specially used by the General's Mansion to bury people. After all, taking it out of the city may be seen by more people, which will have a bad impact.
The old man who came to bury the person had just been gambling and drinking with the old man who was watering the flowers. He was about to win when he took over the task. He was in a hurry to go back to gamble and the hole he dug was not deep, so he buried the person hastily and pushed the cart.
gone.
Not long after walking, the loose land moved, and a person came out of it. It was Zhao Cuier, the twelfth aunt of General Li.
Zhao Cuier woke up without knowing what happened when she was thrown into the cart. She endured the fear and pretended to be dead, thus escaping the disaster. Her hair was scratched, her clothes were soiled, and she bent over and faced the hill in the distance.
Run away.
Over there, Zhao Xingzong had just been drugged by the doctor. He gritted his teeth and said, "That sesame official dares to attack me. Now let's see how I kill him! I'll kill his whole family!"
Vice General Liu opened the curtain, walked in, and said politely: "Let's go."
Zhao Xingzong didn't hear anything wrong and ordered: "Hurry up and send troops to kill Dong Youfu's whole family!"
Vice General Liu glanced at him and sneered: "Let's go back now!"
Zhao Xingzong was overjoyed and grinned again: "You can just bring someone to handle this little thing yourself. I still have to recover from my injuries!"
Vice General Liu said: "Let's go, you can't go if you don't want to!"
Two soldiers came forward, one on each side, and drove Zhao Xingzong out.
Zhao Xingzong felt something was wrong and said angrily: "What do you want to do? Don't be rude to me! My sister is the most favored woman by the general!"
Vice General Liu said calmly: "The general said that if you can't control your mouth, he will not be able to protect your Zhao family."
Zhao Xingzong's face turned pale, "What do you mean? What do you mean?"
Lieutenant General Liu said with a strange tone: "If God wishes for his death, he will be driven crazy. You, the Zhao family, are too crazy!"
Zhao Xingzong now understood that he was about to be given up, and would also be pushed out to take the blame.
Suddenly, he burst out laughing, "Do you think I, Zhao Xingzong, am stupid? I'm going to die, why do I care about the Zhao family! If you don't want me to live, no one else can!"
Lieutenant General Liu didn't expect him to be so stubborn. He put his hand on the hilt of the sword and said with a murderous look in his eyes, "Have you thought about it?"
Zhao Xingzong snorted coldly, "I have thought about it a long time ago! I have already prepared a back-up plan. If I die unexpectedly one day, someone will send the evidence to the prefect of Dianzhou and the capital!"
Deputy Liu took his hand away from the hilt of the sword, and a flash of thought flashed in his eyes. It seemed that Zhao Xingzong had to be protected. What should he do?
