Chapter 139 To Convince People With Virtue

The three attendants were crying like a woman, as if they would die in the next moment without a place to bury them.They wrapped Shang Jue's body, and immediately began to draw lots.

"You go!"

The servants who were drawn looked ashen, "Let me write a suicide note."

The old thief said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, King Wei is cruel, but he is far away in Qianzhou. The prince is not allowed to leave the fief without an edict, so you can rest assured."

Yes!

Yang Xuan felt at ease.

Although King Wei is older than him, according to seniority, King Wei is his nephew.

The great nephew's reputation as a murderous man was well known throughout Tang.

When he was in Chang'an before he became a vassal, King Wei made a lot of tragedies in Chang'an. It is said that dozens of people lost their hands and feet.

"It will take two or three days for your majesty to arrive here from Lin'an, and the corpses will probably smell bad." The attendant figured out why he didn't have to go, "It has to be dealt with quickly."

And Yang Xuan was already dumbfounded.

"King Wei came to Taiping?"

Later, he returned to the county.

"Mingfu looked ruddy and refreshed!"

Jiang sincerely praised.

"Jiang Zhen!" Yang Xuan forced a smile, but still remembered to appease Er Wuzi, "Go and get busy."

Yang Xuan went to the backyard, and then the old thief called Cao Ying and others.

"King Wei's brother-in-law?" Yiniang sneered, "Who is free to pat other people's horses? If he dies, he deserves it. If he is capable, he will come to Taiping from Qianzhou!"

Yang Xuan was dumbfounded.

Yiniang felt something was wrong, so she asked the old thief, "What happened?"

The old thief smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty ordered King Wei to come to northern Xinjiang to appease the soldiers and civilians."

Wang Laoer added, "They say they want to stay in Taiping."

Yi Niang: "..."

Cao Ying's face turned cold, "Where are those three people? Who witnessed them? Kill them all. There is a cave in the mountain over there. Throw it in, cover it with dead branches outside, and no one will find it for a lifetime."

Yang Xuan shook his head, "It's already too late."

Cao Ying covered her forehead, "Hey!"

Yiniang said angrily: "Why are you moaning and sighing? You are so kind, how can you kill someone to silence your words?"

Cao Ying sighed: "If you don't kill people, people will kill you!"

Yang Xuan thought a lot, and he knew that he couldn't do anything that would kill people, especially that old farmer.

"This is the case, it's more important to think about how to solve it." Yang Xuan asked, "What kind of person is King Wei?"

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.

Cao Ying looked at Yiniang, "Yiniang knows more."

Yiniang said slowly: "The King of Wei is from Concubine Shu Qiao's family. Back then, the false emperor was still hiding in his mansion, and there were many women in the mansion, competing for favor with each other... Qiao's family came from Jiangnan, and they lost to those women."

"Is this looking down on Jiangnan women?" Suzaku said, the rhythm of the flashing green light seemed to be trembling.

"Qiao's life was not easy, and King Wei also became full of anger. He is tall and strong. When he was nine years old, a woman bullied Qiao, and he smashed her head with a flagon."

Talent!
Wang Laoer praised: "Good fight!"

Yiniang nodded slightly, "Women are easy to deal with, at worst, they can be replaced. But the son is her own, and King Wei was just beaten up."

"After a few months, a woman knocked Qiao down on purpose. Qiao didn't take it seriously, but King Wei quietly blocked the woman, punched and kicked her, and finally pushed the woman into the pool, almost drowning. die."

Yiniang found that everyone was deep in thought, "What are you thinking about?"

The old thief said: "The old man was thinking about what he was doing when he was nine years old, as if he was playing around."

"When King Wei was more than ten years old, no one in the mansion dared to do evil to Qiao." Yi Niang sighed: "Once people get hostile, it is difficult to stop. Later, King Wei left the palace to build a mansion, and it was in Chang'an City. It is said that people are afraid of everyone... Even if it is an important minister, if he offends him, he will beat him."

Yang Xuan asked: "How is his cultivation?"

Yiniang looked at him with a sad expression, "Lang Jun..."

Yang Xuan understood, "That is to say, if King Wei makes a move, I will either run away, or I can only wait to die?"

Yiniang nodded, "It's a pity that Taiping is a place. I also dried a lot of dried vegetables, so I can't take them with me."

Women are thinking about those things... Cao Ying said painfully: "It's a pity that the Taiping Army has 500 people. If you want to expand in time, based on this, tens of thousands of troops can be obtained at your fingertips!"

These days there are no elites, only the core elites lead other troops to fight, and use the elites to drive the combat effectiveness of the entire army.

"Calm down!" Yang Xuan felt that the atmosphere was too gloomy, "Shang Jue's incident was unintentional, even if I sue Changan for this point, I will not lose. In this way, we only need to do one thing well."

The crowd looked at him.

"Convince people with virtue!"

……

King Wei arrived in Taiping on the third day.

The three attendants knelt outside the city gate and howled.

"died?"

Wei Wang was taken aback.

The three attendants have not done nothing these days.In order to reduce their guilt, they went to the city to buy a thin coffin.

They also invited two Fangwai people who were exiled to Taiping to do things. They also admired that Taiping has everyone, which is more convenient than Qianzhou.

While the two outsiders were reciting scriptures that no one could understand, their eyes rolled around.

King Wei has an attendant with excellent language talent beside him, and he heard something in a daze...

"...the gods send you to the west, and the family will give you more money. When you arrive in the west, there are many gods, and the gods also have to buy road money. You didn't give enough road money, and I will let you dream of it later. The dream was given to the whole family, so hurry up and burn money for me... ..."

The attendant picked his ears, thinking that he might be hallucinating.

——An outsider who can be exiled to Taiping is no ordinary outsider!
Opening the thin coffin, a smell rushed out.

Some are over the top.

Shang Jue was already swollen.

King Wei's eyes became more murderous, "Who?"

His concubine is the daughter of a big family, and after entering the palace, she made those women docile and obedient, which made him less troubled.

So he also gave the princess respect.

But now the princess' brother is dead.

A follower weepingly told the story without embellishment at all.

They discussed countless times in the past few days, and finally came to a conclusion, it is best to tell the truth.

"Just took a shot and was trampled to death by a horse?"

"Yes."

King Wei's eyes were full of murderous intent.

Huang Ping said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the officials of Ping'an County are here to welcome you."

King Wei glanced sideways and held down the handle of the knife.

"Go and have a look."

Yang Xuan led a group of officials out to meet him.

"I have seen the king!"

Just as King Wei wanted to get angry, Yang Xuan asked, "Dare to ask what your Majesty is doing in Ping An?"

Huang Ping said coldly: "Your Majesty was ordered to come to Northern Xinjiang to appease the soldiers and civilians."

"Oh!" Yang Xuan suddenly realized, "Your Majesty is merciful. The king is here, and the fathers and villagers in Ping'an County are very happy!"

Behind, Cao Ying gently waved her hands behind her back.

A group of people raised their hands and shouted: "Your Majesty is merciful, Your Majesty is merciful..."

"I said welcome, welcome, welcome, what kind of benevolence do you want to use?" Suzaku was not happy.

King Wei looked at Yang Xuan silently.

Yang Xuan felt his scalp go numb, so he mobilized his inner breath, ready to strike at any time.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Cao Ying and the others were sweating down their backs, worried that the cruel King Wei would kill his own uncle ruthlessly.

But Yang Xuan analyzed King Wei's mentality, and felt that the eldest nephew's cruelty came from his childhood experience.And King Wei must have a reason every time he makes a move.

Shang Jue's death is inexplicable, but Yang Xuan's 'murderer' is also inexplicable!
What is the reason for King Wei to act?
My brother-in-law touched your horse, and your horse dared to trample him to death?
Yang Xuan didn't think it would be enough to use this reason to do something.

But... who can tell?

So today is an adventure... Yang Xuan was reluctant to part with his foundation, and was willing to risk himself.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

The people shouted hoarsely.

Yang Xuan bet that King Wei would think of the purpose of his trip after hearing the benevolence of the king - to appease the soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang.But you want to kill someone as soon as you come, this is not comforting, but finding fault.

In this way, a family of four surnames will spray him into scum!
The comfort was gone, and I went back to Qianzhou and continued to squat.

Who wants to squat in the so-called fief which is equivalent to confinement?

The eldest nephew was silent for a long time, "Go to the city!"

Yang Xuan felt relieved, and immediately accompanied King Wei into the city.

When the prince came, all the people came out to greet him.

Huang Ping couldn't help being surprised when he saw that the people were very peaceful, "Most of them are criminals here, why is it so peaceful?"

peaceful?Cao Ying accompanied her and said with a smile, "It's all thanks to enlightenment."

This is to fight for face for Yang Xuan.

Huang Ping nodded.

Yang Xuan said: "The county has already vacated space, Your Majesty..."

Wei Wang was silent, Huang Ping said: "Is there a house next to the county?"

"Have."

"Requisitioned."

Expropriation means not giving money... King Wei thinks highly of your family, this is your family's honor.

I still want money...to die!

Cao Ying felt something was wrong, and just as she was thinking about paying the county to settle the matter, Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is kind."

King Wei's footsteps froze, "Give me money to buy it!"

Huang Ping glanced at Yang Xuan, thinking that this young magistrate looks extraordinary!
His horse trampled to death King Wei's brother-in-law, and this person should be terrified, but he dared to provoke King Wei to pay.

"Which family does Yang Mingfu belong to?" Huang Ping began to dig.

"Yuanzhou Yang." Yang Xuan smiled.

I have never heard of it, most of them are from small families and poor ghosts.

"But the imperial examination?"

"No, I studied under the Imperial College."

A student of the Imperial College?

Huang Ping immediately thought of the strange group of Guozijian.

He smiled slightly, "I see!"

Turning his face sideways, his eyes were full of hatred.

Shang Jue and him are inseparable, brotherly friendship!
So his hatred for Yang Xuan could not be washed away even if all the waters of the Three Rivers were poured out.

Naturally, the house next door to the county house was not lived by poor ghosts. Once the money was spent, after learning that it was King Wei who lived in, the host was so ugly that he nearly offered his daughter to King Wei to sleep.

Taiping is a rural place, if a daughter can climb up to the prince, tsk tsk!The whole family is not worried.

King Wei moved in immediately.

The house is a bit cramped, and there is no study room, so we can only temporarily vacate one.

Wei Wang and Huang Ping were talking in the study at the moment.

"Your Majesty, Shang Jue's death was unjust!" Huang Ping's face turned ugly, and he vowed to avenge his good brother.

King Wei said with a cold face, "Why did he requisition the bullock cart?"

Huang Ping said: "It is said that it is going to Lin'an to pick up the king."

King Wei stared at Huang Ping with leopard eyes, and asked indifferently: "If you tell lies, I will hang you in front of the coffin, and become a pair of perverts with Shang Jue!"

What did the king know?
Huang Ping trembled in his heart, "Shang Jue said that Taiping was poor, and he planned to buy a prostitute in Lin'an to serve him by his side."

King Wei's eyes were not good, and he held the water glass. Huang Ping quickly explained, "Shang Jue said to buy more, he only needs one for himself, and the rest will serve the king."

King Wei leaned forward, like a tiger looking down on a fox, and roared, "It's all because of your usual instigation that made him so lustful!"

Huang Ping was sprayed with saliva all over his face, but he didn't dare to move. After King Wei sat up straight, he quickly changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, Yang Xuan came out of the Imperial College."

"The trash of the Imperial College!" Wei Wang sneered.

"Yes!"

Huang Ping suppressed his hatred in his heart, "The Guozijian is not as good as the previous generation, and there is such a smart county magistrate. I don't know which school he cultivated. Could it be that the Guozijian still has the bee department? But knowing the direction of his cultivation, It is also easy to suppress."

King Wei looked at him, and said coldly: "No matter which school he cultivates, this king is just one punch!"

"The king is as powerful as a tiger." Huang Ping praised the boss, and then said worriedly: "It's just how the princess will explain?"

King Wei doesn't care much at home, and the princess is the head of the family.After many years, even King Wei felt a little embarrassed by that serious princess.

"Just say..."

King Wei hesitated for a long time.

The concubine is serious, and it's the old man who is caught out for lying... Huang Ping said softly, "Why don't you just tell the truth."

King Wei nodded.

Huang Ping stood up and saluted.

"The king's condolences."

The relationship between King Wei and Shang Jue is very good... The princess is majestic, and King Wei is not willing to tremble with her, but his brother-in-law is quite smart. The two have been dating for many years, and they can be called close friends.

Now the best friend is dead.

The murderer was a horse.

King Wei sat there, looking a little sad.

"You write a letter back to tell the princess about this."

The princess will want to kill me!Huang Ping: "..."

"The king will write a letter back later."

Huang Ping's letter can arouse Wang Hao's anger.

After the anger is vented...

The letter from King Wei went again, and after some comfort, it became the husband's concern for his wife.

But what about me?
Huang Ping stood there.

King Wei raised his head and said calmly, "What are you waiting for?"

……

Yang Xuan, who had successfully overcome the difficulties, was in a good mood.

Yi Niang is also in a good mood.

"Should we welcome King Wei today?" Cao Ying reminded Yang Xuan.

"He probably won't come." Yang Xuan said, he was also unwilling to have dinner with his eldest nephew.

"I have to invite you once." Cao Ying felt that she couldn't be rude.

"You go."

Cao Ying went.

"Catch the wind and wash away the dust?"

King Wei thought of his brother-in-law lying in the thin coffin, "Okay."

The coffin was parked in the front yard, and Cao Ying paid homage to it when she came in.

The guard stood guard and said, "Taiping people are really sincere in doing business."

Cao Ying asked, "Why do you say that?"

The guard patted the thin coffin, "It is said to be a coffin made of good wood, and it really is."

Cao Ying felt something was wrong, so she took a closer look at the memorial ceremony.

The material of the coffin walls on both sides is really good, impeccable, but very thin.Bottom... not quite right.

Damn, it turned out to be Zamu!

Zhang Qifa, that profiteer, used paint to cover up the true colors of Zamu.

After filial piety to the emperor, Cao Ying roamed around for more than ten years, and also made a living in a coffin shop, writing inscriptions for those who came to buy coffins.

So he has a good understanding of the means of this business.

But even if those bosses are black-hearted, they will not use all counterfeit products, at least not the coffin lids.

He lightly touched the coffin lid, sighing as if he came to pay homage to his friend, and patted it a few times along the way.

Black-hearted Zhang Qifa!

Also miscellaneous!

Turn around and let Huang Zhang charge him more taxes!

Cao Ying sighed and said goodbye.

Behind him, the guard said to Huang Ping who came out: "This Mr. Cao is really a good man."

Later is the reception banquet.

Yiniang endured the pain and ordered two sheep to be killed, and cursed her eldest nephew nine times in pain.

"Four ladies."

Zhang Siniang helped the cook light the fire, raised her head and responded crisply, "Hey!"

Yiniang was carrying two lamb legs, "Take these two hind legs, and I'll give them to Mr. Lang to eat."

"it is good!"

Yang Xuan never ate alone, the two legs of lamb, at least half belonged to Yiniang, and the other half belonged to her and Wang Laoer.

Zhang Siniang was very happy.

Dinner is held in the lobby.

The mutton is enough, and the wine is also enough, but the wine is not very good.

King Wei ate very silently.

So the atmosphere is weird.

After eating, King Wei stood up and said, "I came here to appease the soldiers and people. What should I do to appease the soldiers and people... I think that the more you kill the enemy, the more peaceful the life of the soldiers and people in northern Xinjiang will be!" "

Kill the enemy?

Yang Xuan smiled.

He Lianchun's mediation was more like extortion, and it was not binding on both Chen Zhou and the Vasie Department.Who thought that the two sides would be peaceful if the emperor's uncle came forward, and he didn't know how he died.

Time to do it?
Yang Xuan was thinking.

On the third day, the scouts brought news.

"Five thousand riders from Vasie's department are here, heading straight for Taiping!"

After hearing the news, King Wei came with a cold face, "You take people to stand firm, give me a hundred horses, and I will charge and kill."

Yang Xuan shook his head, "Not right."

King Wei squinted at him, his anger bursting out, "You are as timid as a mouse, you only dare to defend the city?"

Yang Xuan looked at him, "I will lead the army out of the city to meet the enemy, and invite the king to watch the battle from the top of the city."

what!
King Wei was startled, then sneered, "This king is here."

Yang Xuan said indifferently: "Your Majesty is here to appease the soldiers and civilians, isn't it appropriate to lead the army?"

Later, King Wei stood at the top of the city, gritted his teeth and looked at the Taiping army who were leaving the city, and cursed: "You bitch, a waste civil servant from the Imperial College came to attack with 2000 people. He thought the Taiping army could defeat ten with one enemy!" ?"

A follower pointed to the city, "Your Majesty, those people are changing clothes."

Behind the city gate, hundreds of people changed into military uniforms, took weapons, and then left the city to stand at the back of the formation.

What do you mean?
This question remained until the dust appeared in the distance.

"The Vachers are here!"

……

'Drunk while holding the lamp', thank the boss for the reward.
