Monk Haihong clasped his hands together and chanted to the Immortal Buddha in a low voice: "The poor monk walked around the nearby villages earlier. Although the heroes of Shahu Mountain gathered in the mountains and forests, they rarely did any evil. They rarely provoked the common people, although they had some influence on the gentry and wealthy households.
The act of extortion has never harmed anyone's life, and he should not deserve death for his crime."
Oh, Chang Yu didn't expect Haihong to come to plead for the thieves. He took the teapot and took a sip: "The great monk only knows that good and evil can be divided into black and white?"
Haihong frowned in confusion.
"Are the wealthy squires human beings who deserve to be extorted just because they are rich? Are the rich people unkind? They rob the rich and give to the poor by robbing the rich? Don't the monks say that all living beings are equal? How come they favor one over the other?"
Haihong's frown deepened, and Chang Yu curled his lips: "This governor is different from you. His eyes can see black and white. If it's not white, it's black! If you're not a citizen, you're a thief. Those who are thieves gather in the mountains and forests to rob homes, rape women, and extort money.
Blackmail is a capital offense for this governor!"
Monk Haihong clasped his hands together, bowed and retreated.
Chang Yu watched his retreating figure with mixed feelings in his heart.
"As long as you just say a word, I will go into the mountain tonight and slaughter those thieves. Why go to all the trouble, and do it without anyone noticing?" Wuzhong walked out of the shadows: "This monk is a monk after all, and some
Pedantic".
Chang Yu shook his head: "He is a virtuous monk, not pedantic, otherwise I would not have kept him with me. He is just doing this for peace of mind. To put it bluntly, he is obeying destiny and doing his best. I should not treat him like this."
It was destiny that wanted to kill those bandits, but he also did his best."
After saying that, he turned around and glanced at Wuzhong: "I know that you have been too murderous recently and need to vent your anger. However, this group of bandits must be killed in public as a warning to the monkeys. Furthermore, you are not familiar with the mountains here. You can enter the mountains alone."
If there is any mistake, I will suffer a big loss."
"Then let me go with him. There will be no mistakes." Just as Wu Zhong was about to speak, a female voice came from the dark night. Chang Yu immediately gritted his teeth: "Su Jing, if you dare to peek at me again, I will not spare you!"
In the dark night, there was no sound.
The sky was slightly bright, and the people outside the city heard the chickens working, and those in the city also got up early to make a living. After Hu Maozhen of the General Military Mansion got up, he did a few punches in the yard, and then went to have breakfast.
After dinner, while drinking tea in the Wushi Hall, some soldiers hurriedly came in and whispered, their expressions changed, and they sent someone to invite Sun Shoufa. Li Guoqi came to discuss matters. After a while, the two of them came, but they heard that the officers and soldiers causing trouble on the road outside the city were of extraordinary status and
They should be invited out of the city to be peacemakers.
The three of them were dumbfounded and shocked for a moment.
As the biggest local gangster in Xuzhou City, Hu Maozhen knew everything about it, from the Jiaolong Gang asking for protection fees to Yue Zhongde's attempt to seize control and even single-handedly provoke him, and even had his secret instructions.
.
What's wrong with you, the emperor's businessman? You still obey the rules obediently when you come to my place.
But what happened later was unexpected. The human Octopus actually showed up, and a cavalry of more than 300 people arrived in time and beat the Jiaolong Gang until they were howling like ghosts and wolves.
How could these men be so arrogant? You must know that Xuzhou is Gao Jie's territory. It doesn't matter whether you are soldiers or thieves who come from north to south. However, these men actually hurt people and did not even enter the city to say hello. Hu Maozhen was very angry.
, could it be that Xuzhou Pier’s magic card was about to fall as soon as the leader left, because it was difficult to come forward directly, so he instructed the people from Shahushan to find the fault to find out the truth, but the other party didn’t have that much nonsense at all, so Sha
The people in Hushan didn't find out what they were and they got a good beating.
But this also allowed Hu Maozhen to see the truth. How could ordinary officers and soldiers be so ignorant of the rules, how could they stand up for Octopus, and how could they have such strong combat effectiveness.
Although he didn't know yet that he was from Chang Yu, he was sure he had a good background. Maybe he was the imperial army responsible for protecting Octopus. After all, he was an imperial merchant.
"The background is very strange, let's take a look before talking about it." Sun Shoufa suggested. Hu Maozhen listened. He respected Sun Shoufa very much because he was the former boss of his immediate boss. Although it was Hedong for thirty years and Hexi for thirty years, Sun Shoufa is now
He worked under Gao Jie, but Gao Jie was very domineering and treated him with courtesy. The reason was that Sun Shoufa himself was a strong soldier.
Wait and see what happens, and at the same time instruct Sha Hushan and the Jiaolong Gang to jointly exert pressure to see what the other party's reaction is, but there are only more than 300 people, and they still don't believe that they can make waves in Xuzhou.
I wanted to have a group fight with them in the middle of the afternoon, but early this morning, the other party came directly to ask them to be peacemakers, and made their identity clear: the Black Wolf Camp of the fourth camp directly under the jurisdiction of Dongchang, and the emperor's 20th
The Seventh Guard, the East Factory Guard!
The truth is unexpected and really shocking. If other people don't care who you are, you have to think carefully if you want to run wild on Gao Jie's territory... But this Dongchang Wei really doesn't need it!
The little eunuch is now famous at the peak of the sky. He has been trying to turn the tide for several months and points out where to fight and win wherever he fights. Looking at the many capable ministers and generals in the Chongzhen Dynasty, there is no one who can match him. Who in the world is dissatisfied?
Even Gao Jie is now obeying his orders. Now when you go to the field, you don’t offer good food and drink, but you still give him eye drops. This is just putting on Gao Jie’s shoes!
"We have to handle this matter openly, otherwise it will be difficult for General Gao to do it." Li Guoqi paced back and forth in the lobby, and despite all his calculations, he didn't even realize it was the little eunuch.
"It's not too difficult." Sun Shoufa smiled faintly: "We didn't know about this before, and it didn't conflict with us. It just had disputes with some gangs outside the city. We just went to mediate.
If we are too cautious, it will make us look guilty."
Hu Maozhen praised: "Fortunately, I didn't show up before. Now I can pretend that I don't know anything and stay out of the matter, and go to mediate as a landlord, and still be a favor."
"Come on, brother Hu Hu." Sun Shoufa smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You think they are stupid, otherwise why would you ask us to mediate? Everyone knows this well, but we just don't want to quarrel. Everyone just takes a step back. You still want to let us go?"
I owe you a favor."
"That's it, if the Dongchang guards are arrogant and never tolerate others, why should they accept our favors as soon as they're favored?" Li Guoqi couldn't figure it out for a moment, but Hu Maozhen said it through: "We are local snakes, and Octopus wants to do it here.
Naturally, the business cannot offend us to death, for fear of putting small shoes on him, and it is also possible that General Gao is now taking orders from the little eunuch, so we must be more humane and not make it too ugly."
The three of them discussed it and decided to be a peacemaker and turn the matter into a minor matter. They asked Sha Hushan and the Jiaolong Gang to apologize, and Dongchang Wei paid some money to settle the matter. From now on, everyone
Still good friends.
"By the way, will the East Factory Guards pay compensation?" Li Guoqi was a little unsure.
"Since I have taken the initiative to ask for mediation, I will show my sincerity. Five hundred taels is a bit too much, but one hundred and eighty taels is enough." Hu Maozhen smiled and sent people to Shahu Mountain to vent their anger with the Jiaolong Gang. The three people here
You need to go outside the city first to say hello to the Dongchang Guards. Before, it was okay not to show your face, no matter if you didn’t know the truth or not, but now it’s a bit unethical for you to show your identity and pretend to be an uncle. You can’t treat others like that.
, but not for those from Dongchang.
