Chapter 277 The master died without a complete body
These civilian ships quickly surrounded the official ship. Suddenly, a loud arrow pierced the sky, and the shrill whistle made everyone tremble.
Almost at the same time, the big men on these boats raised their weapons, raised their arms and shouted:
"Kill! You can't let one go!"
The shouts and roars of hundreds of people shook the earth.
And the sound is getting louder and louder.
Because there are more ships gathering here from the darkness in the distance, and on each ship there is a group of men with torches in one hand and weapons in the other.
These boats are gathering more and more, and I don’t know how many more are behind.
Just as Jia Lian had judged before, the officers and soldiers who had been shouting and killing the most happily just now looked blankly at the big men who were surrounding them. When they saw the situation reversed, they were already heavily surrounded by the opponent.
They lost all fighting spirit in an instant, threw away their weapons, and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Some of them were cunning and good at water. They sneaked back, then plunged into the water and swam desperately towards the shore.
Unexpectedly, when the men on the boat saw someone jumping into the water to escape, they immediately jumped into the water one after another. They could only hear the screams of "ah" and "ah" on the dark water surface, and they could hear the water
Someone inside shouted excitedly:
"I sent one here!"
"I gave one as a gift too!"
"We brothers gave one as a gift!"
When the people on board the officers and soldiers heard the frightening shouts, they were so frightened that they no longer dared to enter the water and escape. The only option left was to surrender.
.
Suddenly, all the ships gave way to one of the waterways.
A large boat came out of the crowd and headed straight towards Jia Lian.
A short but capable man stood proudly on the bow of the boat. He cupped his hands towards Jia Lian and said in a loud and confident voice:
"The leader of the Xiangtang Hall on Yanbang South Road, Lan Wuhe, the head of the Gusu branch, pays homage to Mr. Lian!"
Jia Lian had just ordered De'er, who was the most aquatic, to swim out to deliver the message. At this time, when he saw Lan Wuhe, the leader of the Salt Gang in Gusu, arriving in person, he got up and returned the gift:
“You don’t have to be polite, Mr. Lan!
The lanterns on the shore tonight are all thanks to the help of the salt gang brothers. I am very grateful for your help now."
Lan Wuhe had already received a message from the gang, and learned that it was Jia Lian who had given the Salt Gang some guidance, and that the hard-working brothers of the Salt Gang had received tangible benefits. He also heard that this person had a very good relationship with the young gang leader.
It was unusual, so naturally he didn’t dare to neglect at all, and said very respectfully:
"Second Master Lian is so polite.
Our gang leader has issued an order to the world, and all the disciples of the Salt Gang should follow Master Lian’s lead and go into the water and into the fire.
All of us in the Salt Gang are proud to serve Mr. Lian. Naturally, my brothers with blue belts are not far behind.
Especially today when we come to arrest Shuyu, a dog official, not to mention our salt gang brothers, even every common person in Gusu hates him till the roots of his teeth itch."
Jia Lian smiled and said:
"Exactly!
This thief deceives the emperor when he is above, and is harsh on the people below. Heaven and earth will not tolerate him, and he will die unjustly."
When Shuyu heard Jia Lian's unkind words and obviously wanted to kill him, he suddenly panicked, pulled his neck and shouted:
"I am an official of the imperial court! Anyone who dares to touch me is a rebel!"
Jia Lian sneered:
"What you said is right.
Didn't you just order someone to shoot me dead to kill the imperial official? Since you have rebelled, you will be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts."
Shuyu didn't expect Jia Lian to react so quickly. With one move, he actually found himself guilty of "rebellion", so he had to soften his words again:
"Master Jia, my father-in-law is the steward of Prince Beijing, and I am a disciple of Prince Beijing. I and Rongguofu are both members of the 'four princes and eight princes' faction. We are all members of the same family!"
"Who is your 'family member'? Your brother-in-law Zou Sen is your 'family member'."
"Oh Lord Jia, don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. Anyway, your family and Prince Beijing have been friends for a long time, and they are both members of the Supreme Emperor's family. For the Supreme Emperor..."
"Shut up!" Jia Lian shouted, "Stop trying to talk to the Supreme Emperor! The Supreme Emperor has always loved the people like his own son, so how could he allow you to use a soldering iron to flatten the people of Gusu?"
His voice was particularly loud when he said this, and he deliberately wanted Dai Quan upstairs to hear clearly.
The Supreme Emperor has been given the high hat of "loving the people like a son", let's see how you can protect Shuyu, a dog official!
When these Salt Gang men heard the words "smoothed with a soldering iron," they immediately remembered that ever since Shuyu came to Suzhou, he had "smoothed" the people of Gusu with harsh punishments. He had created countless unjust cases and suppressed them.
The people of Gusu didn't even dare to breathe loudly every day, and all of them suddenly became angry and shouted:
"Shuyu be damned!"
"The 'Soldering Iron Magistrate' has made the people of Gusu miserable!"
"Kill him! Revenge the person who died unjustly!"
When Shuyu saw the excitement of these people, he was so frightened that he couldn't help but speak indiscriminately:
"Master Jia can't let them touch me!
I, the prefect of Gusu, was personally recommended by the Prince of Beijing to the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor immediately issued an order to personally recommend me.
If anyone touches me, it will be a slap in the face of the Supreme Emperor. See if the current emperor is so bold!"
Jia Lian waited for him to finish speaking, deliberately showed a surprised expression, scratched his head and said:
"Ah? Why is it so big?"
Shuyu stamped his feet and said:
"That's natural!
The former prefect of Gusu, Ma Bao, was loyal to Prince Zhongshun. Prince Zhongshun defected to the current emperor, and the emperor was extremely angry.
Thanks to Prince Beijing recommending me, this has consolidated the power of the Supreme Emperor and his elders in the south of the Yangtze River. The weight of Prince Beijing in the heart of the Supreme Emperor is self-evident."
Jia Lian sneered:
"What a pity, this is not the reason why you let the people of Gusu suffer!"
Before he finished speaking, everyone below shouted:
"Master Jia is so right!"
Jia Lian glanced at the second floor, became worried, and ordered Fa'er:
"Be clean."
Fa'er instantly held a sharp dagger under Shuyu's throat.
Jia Lian walked to Shuyu and whispered:
"Let me make it clear to you: your heart is too dark, you talk too much, and the most important thing is that you offend people you shouldn't offend."
Jia Lian waved his hand, and Fa'er raised the knife and dropped it.
The donated blood on Shuyu's neck splashed like a rainbow, and the cheers everywhere were like a shocking tide.
Jia Lian, on the other hand, has already turned around and walked towards the second floor of the cruise ship.
.
As soon as Jia Lian entered the second-floor cabin, Qingwen ran up first:
"Second Master, it was so dangerous just now."
Jia Lian held her hand, feeling that her soft and smooth little hands were cold, and a feeling of pity and cherishment arose in his heart.
But at this time, he had more important things to do, so he turned to Dai Quan and said:
"Uncle Shibo, just now Shuyu said in public that he was the Supreme Emperor and his old man, and kept silent about the Prince of Beijing. My nephew has no choice but to shut him up forever."
Dai Quan was just listening inside, and he was almost jumping up and down in anxiety. If he hadn't been unable to show up, he would have stamped his feet and shouted:
"Hurry and cut his tongue!"
At this time, he stretched out his thumb and praised:
