Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty

This time, his heart was crossed, even if he fought for his life, he had to earn enough ten taels of silver.

"Crunch crunch" with the winch slowly turned, the copper hoop cage slowly went up, two horses came out of it, the soldiers looked carefully, recognized that the first person was the leper Chen, and then went to see the other person, the blue brocade tarpaulin hat still covered half of the face, the soldiers raised the torch to shine, reflecting a handsome white face, the eyes were as sharp as electricity, the heart of the soldier struck a sudden moment, the heart said that this person is full of the official style, and looks like a nobleman, it should not be easy to provoke.

Wang

Pu deliberately chose this personal soldier to receive visitors, just because he was an old man of the Wang family, and the advantage was that he was a wise person.

There is a gate under the city wall, there are soldiers who go up to lead their horses to the inside, this

soldier frowned slightly, only to remember that he was stunned for a moment and did not order someone to search the two of them, this is not wonderful, Lord Wang Pu once told him that if there are outsiders who want to see, they will stop and search their bodies, for which the army is also equipped with a handsome soldier, full-time search.

This soldier thought about it left and right, and finally did not have the courage to annoy the adult, he had the strength of his eyes, and the one on the horse looked arrogant, not like a person of good words, in case he provoked the guest, Wang Pu needed to be difficult in front of him.

And said that Wang Pu had already been informed, and sat down in the right position, and after a long time, the soldiers came in to report, and two people asked to see outside the house, and Wang Pu waved his hand to signal people to come in.

"Grass people Chen Chuanxin, meet the general, Lord Wang. "The leper Chen Bulun sings.

"Leper Chen, you came to me late at night, something happened in the city. Wang Pu asked.

"Yes, yes, Lord Wang, something is wrong. The leper Chen said with a worried look.

"Bold, you are clearly lying, at this time the city gate is just closed, how can you come out of the city, hum, do you come out of the wall. Lin Changxing snorted coldly.

"No, he, it is. The leper Chen was frightened, and then he caught a glimpse of the sword-wielding guards all over the house staring at him sideways, their eyes were quite unkind, and they were flustered for a while, and their tongues were knotted and scattered.

"I brought him out of the city gates, so what's the problem? The white-faced nobleman said disapprovingly, and stretched his waist and acted casually.

"What is the name of this son?" Wang Pu had already paid attention to this person, and when he saw him speaking loudly, he asked coldly.

"Childe, hehe, don't forget Wang Jie, we just agreed to use Huangzhuang to do cotton cloth business not long ago. This man glanced at the leper Chen beside him, and still told the secret matter.

"Then you are a close confidant of the Jizhou Military Garrison Supervision Army. Wang Pu had some eyebrows, and he had an agreement with Gao Qiqian to use Huangzhuang to grow cotton for the steam engine weaving cloth in Yanmen, and to partner in the cotton cloth business, and use the profits to offset the silver of the city.

"Why do you use your cronies to do this, I am the prison army himself, and Gao is also. Gao Qiqian said proudly.

"Oh, I see, why did Grandpa Gao come to me. Wang Pu was slightly surprised, the person in front of him did not have the feminine shape that a eunuch should have, how could he look white and pure, and his expression was arrogant, and he spoke upright and straightforward, like a pampered son and brother in the family.

"Something's wrong, there's something big in the city. "

"Speak. "

"Zuo Liangyu rebelled and is leading troops to attack the prefect's yamen. "

"Huh. Wang Pu was shocked, in his mind, Zuo Liangyu was a coward, how could his temperament change greatly, so brave and unscrupulous.

"Please temperate your lordship and enter the city to quell the rebels. Gao Qi said earnestly.

"How innocent are the people of the city, who are slaughtered, and the rebels plunder everywhere, and plunder countless people's wealth. Wang Pu said angrily.

"This, the people in this city are unharmed, but in the Gyeonggi area, the local gentry are in bad trouble. Gao Qiqian was suddenly embarrassed, Wang Pu understood what he said, this is to loot the silver in the city, the emperor is not a hungry soldier, how can he make the Shenjia camp without benefits, Wang Pu's request is reasonable. It's just that he is duty, if the treasury silver is really looted by the Shenjia Battalion, and he turns back to blame Zuo Liangyu, then the court will most likely force him to enter the remnants of Zuo Liangyu's rebels to recover the silver.

"How is it good that the treasury of the city has been emptied by the rebels? "The so-called Gyeonggi gentry, that is all floating wealth on the horizon, a thousand birds in the forest, it is better to have a bird in hand, Wang Pu refuses to give up.

"This, I guess it's this number. Gao Qiqian gritted his teeth and admitted, stretched out two fingers, and said, "The thief stolen 20,000 taels." "

"What a traitor Zuo Liangyu, he used to kill and be good, I have long seen that he is not a loyal minister, this official is grateful to the emperor, how can he be tolerated. Wang Pu said awe-inspiringly.

"Then please ask the king to enter the city immediately to quell the rebellion, and the governor has already arranged it to open the gate of the north to respond. "Gao Qi dived and thought that Wang Pu was really anxious to wait for the silver to be cooked, and the sea ship was undoubtedly a gold-swallowing beast.

"Hehehe, Gao Qiqian, are you stupid to me, you said that Zuo Liangyu rebelled, why did he still allow you to go out of the city, you are not only out of the city, you can open the city gate at any time, then he Zuo Liangyu is also a fart. Wang Pu sneered, and Lin Changxing looked at each other and laughed, this high stealth is suspicious, maybe it is a trap arranged by the imperial court, the thief's heart is not dead, he still thinks about it, and does not forget to get rid of his Shenjia camp, thinking of this, Wang Pu's eyes flashed a wisp of murderous energy.

"Wang is thoughtful, it's me Gao who underestimated you. Gao Qiqian sighed secretly, this situation could not be helped, he could only show his hole cards, and said: "I have a piece of evidence that can help the king to get rid of the traitor." "

"Oh, ah, I see, you were the ghost of all that movement last night. Wang Pu suddenly came to his senses.

"Yes, but the king knows that I have no ill will towards you. Gao Qiqian reached into his arms and took out a letter. Wang Pu took his eyes and instructed his soldiers to pass the letter over, opened it and looked at it, and suddenly his heart was in a mess, looking up left and right, Lin Changxing's eyes were eager, and he was eager to know the words in the letter, Wang Pu smiled lightly and gave him the letter, Lin Changxing took a cursory look at it, was shocked, and couldn't hide his excitement to look at Wang Pu, the latter nodded, and said: "Go and tie them up and bring them here." "

Lin Changxing took the order and took away a few pro-soldiers in the house and rushed away.

"I received this favor, but I don't understand, what are you trying to do. Wang Pu asked with a smile.

"Hehe, the governor and the king are one outside, the other inside, they take different paths, we go our own way, we don't have to stand in each other's way. On the contrary, the one surnamed Wang, I think he is very self-motivated, and I can't keep him to dig my grave. Gao Qiqian didn't shy away from it, and said it very thoroughly.

"I understand, you were the one who decided to go out of the city to fight me in the first place, and you can't escape the blame for losing this battle. Wang Pu smiled and said, he liked this eunuch a little, he spoke very simply and transparently, and he seemed to be unintentional in treating people sincerely.

"One misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, and there is no regret. Gao Qiqian's face was as usual, and he smiled bitterly.

"You want Zuo Liangyu to carry this black cauldron, I can understand, but you shouldn't ask me to cooperate, because you can't stop me, aren't you afraid that I will betray you. Wang Pu sneered.

"Cooperate with me, you have only benefit, and countless pieces of silver have been sent to you. "

"Oh, where is your benefit. Wang Puqi said.

"Zuo Liangyu's defeated soldiers plundered everywhere, robbed countless squires and wealthy, you came forward to quell the rebellion, all the silver is yours, the governor also made the reason to the court, asked you for merit, and was promoted and made rich, this benefit, doesn't Wang Temperance want it. "

"Hey, hey, Brother Gao, you and I hate to see each other late. Wang Pu took a deep breath, is this Gao Qiqian a god of wealth, he is actually anxious and virtuous.

"This is not only, there is also a great achievement, the day before yesterday, a servant of Wen Tiren came to Jizhou City, and kept saying that Wen Tiren was entangled by a thief army and was fleeing to Tongzhou, I guess I could escape, but in case Wen Tiren was unfortunately surrounded, we led the troops to arrive in time and saved Wen Tiren's life, isn't this a great achievement. Gao Qiqian said, his eyes lit up.

"Wen Tiren, this credit is useless to me, you can bear it yourself. Wang Pu shook his head again and again when he heard this, he is a member of the Donglin Party, if he saves Wen Tiren, who is the sworn enemy of Donglin, he will not become a traitor to the party.

"Then, don't you save it, that's a pity, hey. Gao Qiqian was slightly stunned when he heard this, Donglin has been declining recently, and many of them have rebelled against Wen Tiren, will this Wang Pu be a loyal person, and would rather share hardships with Donglin than with Wen Tiren.

"I have a good candidate, what is the name of Zuo Liangyu's subordinates captured in the battle under the city that day, what is Lou Guangxian, he is the general manager of the chariot and cavalry of the Shangbing Department, this person may be available. Wang Pu suddenly remembered the previous prisoner Qian Zong who was hit in the chest with a firecracker, this brave general was strong and extraordinary, he survived with a penicillin needle, and after recovering from his injuries, he repaid his kindness in the army, Wang Pu saw that he had some courage and acquiesced, and only picked up an elite heavy infantry for nothing.

"Oh, and that kind of thing, this person is the right person, and when it's done, please arrange for me to talk to him face to face." Gao Qiqianyan's eyes lit up, and he bribed Zuo Liangyu's capable subordinates, and it was easier to win the trust of the court with this personal evidence, and he would definitely be able to make Zuo Liangyu's rebellion case solid and complete it like a mountain iron case.

"You say that this saving people is a little sure, don't rejoice, work in vain. Wang Pu suffered from gains and losses, and wrinkled his eyebrows.

"It's hard to say, luck is this thing, there has been a thief in Tongzhou, the court will soon know that something is happening here, we can't delay any longer, Wang Jie, you and I are strangers, but, this calamity, if you can help this governor pass safely, we are our own brothers who have been through the same tribulation, how can we forget your benefits when we turn back." "

"That's right, if Gonggong Gao doesn't dislike me, let's worship on the spot. "

"Ah, good idea. "High dive is amazing.

"Wang Da, you go and prepare for the trip, I and Gonggong Gao hit it off at first sight, and we hate to see each other late, and we are going to bow today. Wang Pu instructed the captain of the pro-soldiers, but he was secretly laughing in his heart, this eunuch was not afraid and hesitated, it was really a bold splash, it was a taboo for the emperor to make friends with the inner court and the outer generals, not to mention worshipping as brothers of the opposite sex, in case of an incident in the future, to ensure that this eunuch surnamed Gao Ling Chi started.

Gao Qiqian was really anxious and angry in his heart, but at this time, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, so I can only hide it and not make it, I am happy with sadness and hardship, and said with a smile: "This matter is not in a hurry, take Zuo Liangyu first." "

"Then how can I believe you, if this is a trap, you set up a poisonous plan to trick me into the city, and then come to catch turtles in an urn, will I not be killed? Wang Pu was immediately displeased and said coldly.

"This, this, when it comes to this,

I'll just say it, today's secret is out, Brother Wang is not afraid of the emperor, I have to be afraid, this is too unfair to me, let's discuss a proper method." "Raise the unspoken word to be honest.

Wang Pu was in a dilemma, the good things sent to the door by this village were a little disturbing, and he was hesitating, when the sound of chaotic footsteps came from outside the door, and occasionally the sound of intertwined armor and iron pieces washing and grinding.

"My lord, the people outside are Jian Jun and Liang Sanqian, and they are all tied up. "The soldiers came in to report.

Wang Pu bowed his head,

pushed the door without saying a word, and strode out, the torch reflected Liang Sanqian who was being held down on the ground, he suddenly shook off the knot when he heard the sound, struggled to raise his head, Wang Pu saw that his face was covered in cold sweat, there were blood marks and wounds on his neck and mouth, and his body was quite embarrassed.

"Do you know why I took you. Wang Pu asked coldly.

"Phew, you dog, my old Liang was really blind at the beginning, and he defected to you, and finally you plotted against him. Liang Sanqian scolded angrily.

"Is that your word on it? Why do you rebel against me, I treat you well. Wang Pu asked again, he really couldn't understand why this man wanted to be a traitor.

"My soldiers, those are my soldiers, Ma Shilong

wants to swallow my soldiers, but he is cornered, I have to be, what are you, you obviously have no shortage of elite soldiers, but you, but you deceive people too much, you are more ruthless and poisonous than Ma Shilong. Liang Sanqian was still scolding angrily.

"What do you mean? I don't understand. Wang Pu looked dazed.

"Wang Pu, you can't die well, I will die and turn into a ghost to haunt you all day long. Not wanting to listen to Wang Pu's words, Liang Sanqian was furious and cursed.

"In this way, according to the custom, recruit President Qian to open a military court, let your subordinates hear the trial, and people have their own opinions on whether you are wronged or not. "

"Military courts, what is this. Gao Qi Qian held his hand against the door, frowning and puzzled.

"It's a public trial, above board, and let everyone try together. When the army fights with the enemy, it must be totalitarian, and I alone have the final say, but in peacetime, totalitarianism is not good, and I always have times when I make mistakes, so I set up a military court, and there is a fair opinion on the merits of the case. Wang Pu looked back and responded.
