The commander shook his head, "Have you forgotten, sir? All goods from Baocheng Company are never inspected."
Zhu Ji looked ugly and said: "In other words, they were released without any investigation at all?"
The captain nodded and said immediately: "Your Excellency, you suspect that there are rebels hiding in the carriage?"
Zhu Ji didn't answer and hurried to the palace. Now he only had one thought in his mind... He must kill Zhang Guangcheng before he appeared in front of the soldiers!
If he had known this, he should have persuaded his third elder brother to kill Zhang Guangcheng at that time, and he would not be in trouble today. It was really a mistake. But now it is too late to say anything. The only way is to strike first!
Zhu Ji hurried to the palace. As soon as he entered, he ignored the obstruction of the palace manager and ordered people to search inside and outside. However, Zhang Guangcheng and others were not found. Even Wang Jincai and his wife were missing. When he asked the housekeeper and servants in the palace, they all said that Wang Jincai
The couple went out early in the morning and have not returned yet. As for the other people, it is unknown.
"This old fox!" Zhu Ji cursed secretly, and called the captain who came with him: "I am ordering you to search the whole city for the Wang family. Once found, arrest them immediately; in addition, keep all the Wang family members in the city.
All the shops and houses were seized and searched, no one was allowed to be spared, and all the shopkeepers were brought back."
"Yes!" After the captain left, Zhu Ji felt unwilling and ordered people to search the Wang's house again. Still nothing was found, so he left bitterly. However, he hated the whole Wang family in his heart and made up his mind.
After they are caught, they must be tortured so that their lives would be worse than death and they would regret going against themselves!
Not long after returning to the governor's house, a soldier hurried in and said with a strange expression: "Master Qi, there are two people in the barracks. One calls himself General Zhang, and the other calls himself the current Twelfth Brother."
Zhu Ji, who had just sat down, quickly stood up when he heard this, stared at him and said, "Where do you think they are?"
"In the barracks..." Before the soldier finished speaking, Zhu Ji ran out quickly, followed closely by Master Fang. Zhu Ji felt that the carriage was too slow, so he rode directly to the barracks. Master Fang could only bite the bullet and go with him.
horse riding.
He rode his horse all the way into the barracks, and sure enough, he saw a stout man standing in the place where they usually practice, talking loudly to the soldiers below. Yong Cang and others were standing behind him.
Zhu Ji hurriedly dismounted and ran over while shouting: "Come here, capture this person who broke into the military camp immediately!" He always thought that after Zhang Guangcheng and others entered the city, they would first find a place to hide, but they unexpectedly suddenly
When we entered the city, we came to the barracks. What a miscalculation.
All the soldiers looked at each other with doubts on their faces. The one standing on top was General Zhang. Why did the governor want them to arrest General Zhang?
Zhang Guangcheng also saw Zhu Ji and shouted: "How dare you!"
Zhu Ji stopped a few steps away from him, gritted his teeth secretly and said: "Why don't you dare? As a general of the Qing Dynasty, you colluded with the rebels and deliberately lost to the rebels, causing everyone to die."
Thousands of soldiers still dare to come here and confuse the public, it is really abominable! I will escort you to Beijing and hand you over to the emperor for disposal!"
Yongxing pointed at Zhu Ji and said in a cold voice: "It's not General Zhang who colludes with the rebels, but you!" After that, he took a step forward, looked at the soldiers who were gathering below and said: "Everyone, I am the one who is today.
The twelfth elder brother came to Jinan with General Zhang to put down the rebellion.
However, they were ambushed by the rebels who far outnumbered the intelligence and were defeated. During this period, General Zhang sent soldiers to ask Zhu Ji for advice, but he turned a deaf ear to it. He even killed the person who reported the message and allowed countless soldiers to be killed by the rebels' butcher knives.
, let General Zhang be captured by the rebels!"
Zhu Ji's face was ashen and he said: "You are talking nonsense. How could I collude with the rebels? As for you, I have never heard that the emperor sent the twelfth elder brother to accompany him on the expedition. It is clearly a fabrication. You pretend to be the elder brother of the court and you should be punished for your crimes."
!" As he spoke, he shouted again: "What are you waiting for? Arrest these thieves quickly?!"
After hearing this, the soldiers belonging to Zhu Ji began to go towards Zhang Guangcheng and the others, but there was always a bit of doubt on their faces. After all, Zhang Guangcheng's reputation was so great that he was almost as famous as Zhaohui and Agui. Over the years,
He led his army in battles and quelled countless battles, large and small. To say that such a person would rebel is really unbelievable.
Seeing them coming up, Wang Fugui and the others hurriedly stopped in front of Zhang Guangcheng and the others, but were shouted back by the latter. Facing the soldiers who came up, Zhang Guangcheng said calmly: "Do you really believe that I will be accomplices with the thieves?"
Don't wait for those soldiers to come back
Answer, he looked at the dark mass of humanity below and said: "Many of you survived that battle. You should know the situation best. Did I flinch even a little bit? Or maybe I did?
Are you even remotely complicit with the rebels?"
After a brief silence, a voice rang out among the soldiers, "The general fought bravely to kill the enemy and killed countless rebels. He will definitely not conspire with the rebels?"
After this voice, more and more voices rang out, and it didn't take long for them to spread throughout the entire barracks. In addition to the soldiers who escaped, there were also some soldiers under Zhu Ji. They had all heard of Zhang Guangcheng.
With his record, I believe he would not do anything treasonous as a person.
Seeing more and more soldiers supporting Zhang Guangcheng, Master Fang broke out in a cold sweat. He came closer to Zhu Ji and whispered: "Sir, the situation is getting worse and worse for us."
"You don't have to say it!" Zhu Ji scolded angrily, and then said: "You don't have to win people's hearts here. If you were not a comrade of the rebels, how could you appear here unscathed? Could it be that the rebel camp
Are you able to get in whenever you want and get out whenever you want?"
When he said this, the soldiers also showed some doubts. Indeed, even if the rebels did not kill Zhang Guangcheng, they would definitely send heavy troops to guard him. It would be impossible for Zhang Guangcheng to escape with his own strength.
Yong Cang immediately explained in detail how they were framed by Zhu Ji, and how they later learned of the latter's plot and planned the rescue of Zhang Guangcheng. Of course, Yong Zhang's name was omitted from it, and he was only referred to as the rebel's military advisor.
Zhu Ji's face was ashen and he said: "This is simply nonsense, how could I do such a thing!"
"Really?" Yongxun sneered, took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, unfolded them one by one towards the soldiers below, and said: "I just tore these from the city. The three people on it, Zhu Ji said they were
Now, please take a closer look at the spies who have infiltrated the city. Do the people in the painting look like me, Colonel Wang, and Lieutenant Zheng?"
Hearing this, there was an uproar. Indeed, the people in the painting are 60 to 70% similar to Yong Cang and the others. If one is a coincidence, then all three are the same. It cannot be explained by two words: no coincidence.
