Chapter 159 Retribution is coming
Compared with the depression of refugees outside Datong City, Datong City directly shows a picture of peace and prosperity. Especially the Yingchun Tower, the largest brothel in the city, will become the most lively place in Datong City at night.
All the nobles and nobles in the city gathered here without exception, throwing a lot of money and spending money.
The two sons of the prefect Li Wenxuan are no exception.
Because a large number of refugees flocked to Datong Prefecture, and the large number of lives forced more and more new people to be sold into brothels. Therefore, for half a month, the two brothers directly regarded the brothel as their homes and lived in them without coming out.
Of course, as the sons of the prefect, all their expenses in the brothel are not expensive. Although the brothel madam hated the two of them for free eating and playing, in order not to offend the prefect Li Wenxuan, she could only swallow her anger and gritted her teeth and put on a smile and offered her delicious food and drink to the two brothers.
As the largest brothel in Datong Prefecture, in addition to spending time and living, the various news here are also the most well-informed in Datong Prefecture.
Therefore, in addition to the constant presence of various dignitaries and nobles, they spend time and time living here, and the East Factory, the Jinyiwei... secret spies from all parties in the court also often come and go here to explore information.
Therefore, Luo Qianhu, who is located in the Qianhu House of the Jinyiwei, is also a regular visitor here.
As night shrouded Datong Mansion again, the continuous high-ranking officials and nobles in the city began to gather at Yingchun Tower, dozens of Jinyiwei, led by the Jinyiwei Qianhu, all wearing weapons, appeared outside Yingchun Tower.
Faced with such a large formation outside the door, the madam did not dare to neglect it. She quickly greeted her with a smile, trying to figure out the purpose of the Jinyiwei coming here...
"Hello, dear sirs. Welcome to our Yingchun Tower... I wonder what important things are there for you to come here with such a big fanfare. Every month of our Yingchun Tower, we have sent a lot of money to Qianhu House."
As he spoke, the smiling madam had already stuffed a thousand taels of silver notes into the hands of Luo Qianhu, the Jinyiwei who was leading the team.
After quietly stuffing the silver notes into his sleeves, Luo Qianhu whispered, "Don't worry, tonight's action is not directed at you Yingchun Tower."
"I don't know if the two young masters of the prefect are on it. I tell you that there is an order from above that you will imprison these two young masters who usually bully others by virtue. You must cooperate with our Jinyiwei."
The madam was stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed across her face. She asked with a little concern: "Sir, do you know about this? If the magistrate knows, his two treasures were arrested in my Yingchun Tower, and he would not have sent someone to seal my Yingchun Tower... Sir, you must save me Yingchun Tower..."
"How about? After the two young masters of Master Deng left our Yingchun Tower, all the experts will arrest him again."
Speaking of this, another 1,000 taels of silver bill was quietly stuffed into Luo Qianhu's hands by the madam.
After receiving the banknotes, Luo Qianhu said confidently: "Don't worry about this, no one dares to seal your Yingchun Tower. Even if the prefect comes in person, it will not be possible."
"Don't forget who we are, do you think. What I'm talking about is something that a little prefect can offend?"
"Combine our Jinyiwei's actions well. After the matter is completed, no one will rely on his own as a prefect and come to you every day to eat and drink..."
Hearing this, the madam's nervous heart suddenly calmed down a lot. She said to Luo Qianhu with an excited look on her face: "You are right. These two people come to me to cheat and drink every day. I don't know how many girls I have ruined. I have long been disgusted with them."
"I will lead the way for you all, imprison them and let them vent their anger for the people of our Datong Prefecture."
With the cooperation of the brothel maid, the entire arrest process was very smooth. Not only that, with the cooperation of the brothel, almost no one knew about the huge brothel that the ruthless prince who was in Datong Prefecture had fallen into the hands of the Jinyiwei.
After the person was arrested, the next thing went very smoothly.
Faced with the various tortures in the hands of the Jinyiwei, how could two young men with white skin and tender flesh tolerate it?
After just one day entering the Jinyiwei cell, the two young men, who were still intact on the surface, had signed their confession letter. Not only that, some letters they had contacted with the Shaanxi rebels were also created by the Jinyiwei.
Looking at the young master in front of him who was full of horror in his eyes, looking at the series of evidence in his hand. Wei Zheng directly showed a heartfelt smile on his face. He asked Luo Qianhu, who looked respectful in front of him.
"Will there be any mistakes in these evidences..."
"Please rest assured... These letters were written by us by the two young masters themselves, and we also compared them with the letters they usually wrote. There was absolutely no problem. Even if our prefect, Lord Li, read them, he could not find any problems..."
"But, we said in the letter that in order to make the two young men respond, the Shaanxi rebels gave them 50,000 taels of silver notes. These silver notes and silver notes were not faked..."
Wei Zheng said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the silver bill. In addition, when you go back, you go to Master Zhou to receive a silver reward of 5,000 taels of silver. It is a gift from my Wei Zheng to our Jinyiwei of Datong Prefecture. From now on, as long as everyone does things with their heart, the silver reward will only be more, not less..."
"Sir, thank you..."
After the Qianhu, the Jinyiwei of Datong Prefecture, left the General's Mansion with silver notes, smiled. Zhao Yun said with a resentful look on his face...
"General, let them do our business. That's the general. You think of them. Why do you still give them five thousand taels of silver... So much money is enough for our Tiger and Leopard Army to have more than a month's food..."
After glaring at Zhao Yun fiercely, Wei Zheng explained in anger: "What do you know?"
"Do you think I will give this five thousand taels of silver for free? Don't forget what the Jinyiwei does. I can say with certainty that the entire Datong Mansion, the Jinyiwei Qianhu Institute, can be truly considered a local snake in the Datong Mansion. Look, we will have a lot of places to use for these local snakes in the future."
"In addition, our 5,000 taels of silver seemed to be thrown away in vain, but have you ever thought that with the evidence in my hands, we can get back 5,000 taels from our prefect?"
"You must remember that for the future of our Tiger and Leopard Army, we cannot only look at the present moment, but also look at the future."
After saying that, Wei Zheng directly handed the evidence in his hand to Zhou Shuyuan. Then, he ordered with a strange face.
"Military advisor, please immediately pick a letter from the two young masters who directly collude with the enemy from the middle of these evidences. Then send this letter to the prefect's office and give it to our prefect Lord Li..."
Zhou Shuyuan suddenly shot out two hot gazes, and said excitedly.
"Please rest assured, General, I will send this letter to me in person... I really want to see it. What kind of expression will the prefect Li show when he sees this letter."
The Li Mansion where the Datong Prefect Li Wenxuan was located sounded at the gate with a dull knock. The two closed doors of the Li Mansion slowly opened a gap. Then, a head stretched out from the gap.
When he saw Zhou Shuyuan standing outside Li's mansion wearing military officer uniforms, he subconsciously wanted to close the door. He said with a proud face: "You all go back. Our prefect Li's mansion is not something you martial artists can come as long as you want. Let me tell you, our prefect is in a bad mood now. Unless your General Guard comes here in person, we will not see any guests..."
At Zhou Shuyuan's instructions, the guard who followed Zhou Shuyuan suddenly rushed forward and used a big knife at his waist to press the door that he wanted to close.
Faced with the sudden change in front of him, the gatekeeper of the Li Mansion immediately shouted: "What do you want to do? Tell you, the mansion of the prefect Li, who offended Lord Li, then you should not live in Datong Mansion."
Zhou Shuyuan ignored these scoldings and stuffed the letter in his hand through the crack in the door.
Then, he said coldly: "Mr. Li, we are not the guard dog, whether we see you or not. I will send this letter to you, Lord Li, and after reading the letter, he will definitely meet me."
"Tell you, this letter is related to the lives of your two young masters, Lord Li. If you send it late, you Lord Li will blame you, or if you Lord Li's two young masters have suffered any harm, it is your own business..."
"Young Master..." Hearing these two words, the gatekeeper did not dare to neglect, so he picked up the letter from the ground and rushed into the inner palace.
Just as time went by, the arrogant gatekeeper appeared in front of Zhou Shuyuan with cold sweat on his face.
With a look of horror, he said, "Two sirs, our magistrate, please invite..."
Because Zhou Shuyuan's identity is a garrison general, the fourth rank. So when he saw Li Wenxuan, who was nervous and sweating on his forehead, he did not salute, but just hugged his fists to say hello.
As for Li Wenxuan at this moment, when he saw Zhou Shuyuan, he seemed to see a life-saving straw. He completely forgot his identity as a civil servant. He asked Zhou Shuyuan with an urgent look on his face: "How are you doing to my son... What do you want to do to let my two sons go..."
Wei Zheng smiled and asked, "Master, cooperating with the enemy is a serious crime. You should know more about the criminal laws of our Ming Dynasty than me. How can you just let it go?"
"You are an official in the court. You know the law and violate the law, but you have to be punished first. The prefect asked us to let go. Wouldn't it be a difficult situation for us generals or our Jinyiwei?"
