Wu Ya walked to the outer door and happened to see the leader of the village, Lu, bringing someone in. After the two said hello, Wu Ya went out.
"Master Zhang." Village leader Lu waited until Wu Ya was far away before calling softly from the outer room.
Da Kui asked Wu Ya to leave, but he found a slender wooden stick in the inner room and leaned on a chair to pick his teeth. At this moment, when he heard the soft call of the village leader Lu in the outer room, Da Kui hurriedly sat up straight and took care of himself.
After adjusting his clothes and robes, he said lazily: "It doesn't matter, come in." After hearing Dakui's instructions in the outer room, village leader Lu led two villagers into the inner room.
Although this stronghold of the Zhuang family was not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the leader of the stronghold Lu knew that it would happen sooner or later, so he treated Dakui respectfully.
"My little girl is shameless. I don't know where I offended you. I am here to apologize to you." Master Lu said and bowed to Da Kuishen. Although Master Lu came from a strong family, he was not familiar with the etiquette of the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains.
Also know very well.
"What's the matter? How can we offend? Master Lu, please get up quickly." Dakui stood up quickly to help him, his attitude was very humble.
After Dakui and Master Lu exchanged polite greetings, the host and guest took their seats.
Master Lu thought for a moment and then said: "Today is the anniversary of the death of Mrs. Zhuo Jing. I wanted to go to the grave to pay homage, but unexpectedly I bumped into you. This..." Master Lu stopped talking.
"No, no, my concubine turned around and ran away when she saw me, and even dropped a basket." Dakui laughed, but said in his heart: "No, what I ate is a tribute?"
Master Lu Zhai smiled when he heard this and said, "Since this is a misunderstanding, please return the basket." Lu Zhai presided over the ceremony very respectfully, but his words were neither humble nor overbearing.
Dakui looked embarrassed and said with a smile: "Well, my subordinates are greedy and actually ate all the food in the basket. I hope the leader of the village will forgive me for being rude." Dakui said and asked Lu Binglan from under the table.
He took out the basket. He accidentally saw a few mango stones on the table, and his face couldn't help but turn red.
This is really a thief shouting to catch a thief. The mango core was placed on the table. Dakui even said that his subordinates ate it. Village leader Lu didn’t take it seriously. He took the basket and handed it to the villagers who came with him, and then ordered: "Call the thief."
Miss, prepare the tributes again." The villager standing on the left took the basket and turned around and left the inner room.
Dakui smiled softly and then said: "I have been bothering you for many days since I came to Guizhai. I still have important matters to do, so I will say goodbye to the master of Luzhai. When I return from Yunnan, I will make a special trip to visit you."
When the leader of the village, Lu, heard what Dakui said, he couldn't help but persuade him: "The trip to Yunnan is already one day late and it doesn't matter. Why should Mr. Zhang be so impatient? At least we can stay in Xiaozhai for a few more days."
"I understand the kindness of the leader of the village, and now I have something to ask for." Dakui looked at the leader of the village and said.
"Master Zhang, if you have any orders, it's okay to say so." Master Lu's words were sincere, and Da Kui felt relieved.
Da Kui thought for a moment and then said: "I'd like to trouble Master Lu to build a prison car."
"Master Zhang, what does this mean?" Village leader Lu couldn't help but wonder.
Dakui didn't answer, he just reached out and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea.
Upon seeing this, Master Lu didn't hesitate to ask any questions. He immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to leave. The prison car will be built before noon." Dakui didn't say anything and just nodded.
Village leader Lu then led the villagers out of Dakui's room.
Sima Yan, the owner of Yanchi Tower, is the leader of the assassin organization and a repeat offender of the imperial court. Naturally, Da Kui must treat him with caution. Da Kui knows the purpose of Sima Yan's trip. All the killers in Yanchi Tower are mediocre in martial arts.
The assassination failed once, so Sima Yan must have come personally to take Dakui's life this time.
If Da Kui had not been dressed plainly and unintentionally concealed his identity when Da Kui and Sima Yan met for the first time, Sima Yan would definitely have taken action against Da Kui. Thinking of the assassination in Taohua Town, Da Kui still has lingering fears in his heart. He suffered a huge loss at that time.
Wearing the 'Celestial Silkworm Armor', otherwise wouldn't it allow the killer to succeed?
At this moment, Sima Yan is in trouble. She wants to persuade Dakui with her eloquent words, but she just wants to escape. How could Dakui not know? Treacherous and cunning people often show themselves as loyal and good. Sima Yan, a female, can control Yan Chi.
Lou, how deep his scheming can be compared to ordinary people?
Dakui was drinking tea alone in his room, and suddenly wanted to visit Sima Yan. To Dakui, Sima Yan was still a mystery. What did she know?
After leaving the room, he went down the stairs to the wooden building. There were already two followers waiting downstairs. Da Kui took the two followers to the wooden building where Sima Yan was imprisoned. Facing Dakui again, Sima Yan remained as usual.
Be calm.
"Sima Postmaster, I am here to inform you that I will lead a team to Yunnan in a short time, and the poster will be escorted to Guilin Mansion. I will write a handwritten letter to Guilin Mansion, you are here
You will be executed as soon as possible, your head will be sent to the capital, and Yanchi Tower will disappear from now on." Dakui said slowly and unhurriedly.
Sima Yan was sitting in the room, with no trace of fear on her face. Instead, she smiled and said: "The slave family is in Master Zhang's hands at the moment, and life and death are just a matter of Master Zhang's thoughts. Why does Master Zhang need to come here to inform us?"
Dakui chuckled and said: "I have a kind heart, and I would like to ask the poster if there is any unfulfilled wish in his heart? As long as I can do what I can without violating common sense, I will do my best." Dakui looked at Sima Yan, his face
It looks like a smile but not a smile, making it difficult for people to understand what is in his heart.
Sima Yan smiled softly, but she revealed the mystery with one word: "Master Zhang must have some concerns in his heart."
"Hahaha, since the poster knows my feelings, you and I might as well have a good talk." After saying that, Dakui stepped back and sat down opposite Sima Yan.
Sun Tzu's Art of War says: A good defender hides under the Nine Earths, and a good attacker moves above the Nine Heavens. At this time, Dakui's mentality was to use an offensive posture to make Sima Yan reveal everything he had hidden in his heart.
Sima Yan looked at Dakui and asked slowly and gently: "If the slave family informs Master Zhang of the joints of Yunnan trip, can Master Zhang spare the slave family?" Sima Yan knew that this was a bargaining chip for her own life.
Dakui said without thinking at all: "It is state-owned and national law. Your crime is beyond the scope of my personal favoritism, but if you don't tell me the full extent of it, I will use all my strength to destroy the Yanchi Tower. As for whether the poster can be spared."
Responsibilities under national law still need to be tried by the Guilin Prefecture." Dakui's words were categorical, and every sentence was true to the national law. The meaning was very obvious, whether you said it or not, the death penalty was inevitable.
Sima Yan stopped talking and looked at the window lattice. There was no indication of what he was thinking on his face. Dakui was not in a hurry and just waited silently. After a long time, Sima Yan finally spoke: "The people in Yanchi Tower are just civilians.
common people.”
"The murderer will die. There is no room for negotiation. Even the common people should know that they must abide by the law and gather people to kill people for money. This is an unacceptable act under the national law." Dakui pressed forward step by step, without any mercy in his words.
"You have offended someone who shouldn't be offended." Sima Yan said leisurely.
"Who?" Dakui asked.
Sima Yan looked at Dakui again and answered word by word: "Hu Weiyong."
Although Dakui seldom walked around the court, he had known Hu Weiyong for a long time. When Dakui went to Quanzhou in Fujian Province, he met Pan Lei at Xiangquanfang in Quanzhou. Pan Lei passed by Xiangquanfang.
Identification is Hu Weiyong's property. But Dakui did not take action against Xiangquanfang, but how did he offend Hu Weiyong?
Just when Dakui was puzzled, Sima Yan said: "When you were in the Ministry of Punishment, you captured corrupt officials from all over the south of the Yangtze River one by one, and many people were implicated. Not all of them were members of Hu Weiyong's party. Although Hu Weiyong is now only Emperor Taizu,
The Taichang Qing beside him, (Taichang Temple, the Qin Dynasty's official office, Taichang in the Han Dynasty, was in charge of the etiquette of the temple. In the Northern Qi Dynasty, there was Taichang Temple.) But by staying with Taizu for a long time, it was natural to know the emperor's likes and dislikes. Hu Weiyong
He is good at maneuvering and maneuvering, so it is not surprising that he has many party members in the DPRK."
Only when Dakui arrived here did he realize that he had accidentally cut off Hu Weiyong's wings, thus offending this powerful man.
"Is Yanchi Tower entrusted by Hu Weiyong?" Dakui asked.
Sima Yan did not speak, but nodded. After all, the lives of hundreds of people were at stake, and Sima Yan just wanted to trade his own life for the safety of hundreds of people in Yanchi Tower.
"What is the relationship between Hu Weiyong and Wang Fu?" This question has been in Dakui's mind for a long time, and it is time to ask clearly now.
Sima Yan smiled and said: "The two of them are like lips and teeth, and they communicate with each other." After a pause, Sima Yan continued: "Hu Weiyong once served as a minister of Huguang, and he and Wang Fu were colleagues in the same province. He was able to serve beside the emperor.
, but it was Wang Fu who lost money and spent huge sums of money to bribe powerful people, which made Hu Weiyong famous. After Hu Weiyong came to power, he and Wang Fu became sworn friends. The princess (Wang Fu's sister) who was beside the emperor was also sent to the palace by Hu Weiyong.
."
After hearing this, Dakui suddenly realized that this was what happened, and it seemed that he had to make plans in advance.
Not to mention that Hu Weiyong was a popular person around the emperor, but Wang Fu was also a very popular figure in Yunnan. You must know that Wang Fu has been operating in Huguang Province for a long time, and his financial resources must be as rich as the country. Now he has taken refuge in Yunnan Liang Wangbaza
Now Liang Wang Zaci Valmi is entrenched in Yunnan. With Wang Fu's financial support, he can organize his army to confront the Ming Dynasty. Wang Fu must be a piece of cake in the eyes of Liang Wang Zaci Valmi.
"What do you mean by the poster, I will definitely die during my trip to Yunnan?" Dakui asked with a smile.
Sima Yan thought for a moment and then said: "Although this trip is extremely dangerous, it will not lead to death or life."
"How do you say this?" Dakui asked urgently. Listening to Sima Yan's words, there was still some twist in it.
Sima looked at Da Kui and was speechless for a long time. Da Kui blushed at the sight and couldn't help but joked: "Master, please don't look at me like this. I have a wife."
Sima Yan was amused, but then she said seriously: "I will go with you to Yunnan to ensure that you are safe and sound."
Dakui was startled and asked doubtfully: "I don't quite understand what the poster meant. If the poster is involved with Liang Wang's assassination of Valmi or Wang Fu, I'm afraid if I want to escape unscathed, I'm afraid
It’s harder than going to heaven.”
Sima Yan said word by word: "Wang Fu and I have an sworn hatred." As soon as these words came out, Dakui was quite surprised. What was the reason for this?
