Infinite Armory

() Hearing that the imperial court's army of suppressing bandits has left the city and is heading straight for Desolation, Liu Chengfeng and the village chief Xiahou change in unison.

At this time, Ye Zheng's eyes narrowed into a slit, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, and he sneered softly: "Hmph, are you finally coming?"

Seeing his indifferent appearance, Liu Chengfeng and Xiahou village master couldn't help secretly admiring him, and secretly said: "Our leader is extraordinary, and now that the imperial court's bandit suppression army is about to crush him, he is still as stable as Mount Tai. Unmoved, this calmness alone is not comparable to these people like me."

Ye Zheng picked up the teacup with a calm expression, took a sip of the tea, and asked lightly: "Where is the bandit suppression army in Linjiang City now? How many soldiers and horses are there in total? The leading general is Nage Rentu? "

Hearing this, the bandit leader who reported the letter replied hurriedly and respectfully: "My lord, the city lord of Linjiang City sent a total of [-] troops this time, including [-] regular troops from the prefecture city, and [-] garrison troops conscripted from various places. The officers and soldiers of the bandit suppression have passed through Xuande County at this moment, and the general leading the bandit suppression this time is none other than Killing God Ge Rentu."

Hearing this, Ye Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't Linjiang City have [-] regular troops returning to the city early from Cangliang Pass? Why did the government only send [-] regular troops to suppress the bandits? There are still [-] regular troops Where?"

When asked by Ye Zheng, the bandit leader in charge of the letter, his forehead was covered with sweat, he hesitated for a long time, and then said: "This... this, lord, my subordinates have not received it in the past few days. Regarding the news about this, but...however, my subordinates heard that the regular army of the other five thousand prefectures seemed...seemed to have been conscripted by Prince Liang's son."

Hearing this, Ye Zheng's squinted eyes suddenly opened, looked at him sharply, and said with a heavy tone: "What did you just say? Like? I heard? I just want to know now, the Where did the five thousand regular troops go!"

After being shouted at by Ye Zheng, the leader of the bandit who was in charge of reporting the news shook his body, lowered his head slowly, and said: "This subordinate is not doing well, and he failed to get this important news back. Please punish the leader!"

Ye Zheng stared at him and asked softly, "Are you Ji Yuanjie who is in charge of intelligence?"

"My subordinate is Ji Yuanjie, the head of the Tanfeng Hall." The bandit leader in charge of intelligence nodded hurriedly.

Ye Zheng looked at him with a serious face, and said: "Ji Yuanjie, do you know that you have hundreds of spies and spies scattered outside Qunying Village, and the village will spend thousands of taels of silver to you every month. The purpose is to make it easier for you to do things, and let you do your best to spy on some important and useful news, because the information you pass back is related to the life and death of our Qunying Village! But, now it seems that you really did this with all your heart. Is it one o'clock?"

When Ji Yuanjie heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head, and said: "This subordinate is incompetent, and this subordinate will definitely live up to the leader's high expectations in the future, and will..."

"Leader! Do you still see me as the leader in Ji Yuanjie's eyes?"

Ye Zheng interrupted him with a loud shout, and asked in a cold voice: "Ji Yuanjie, let me ask you, on the ninth day of this month, have the 3000 taels of silver you received from Manager Chen been distributed to those spies? "

Hearing this, Ji Yuanjie was startled, and his voice couldn't help trembling. "Leader, then...the 3000 taels of silver, the subordinates have already divided... distributed..."

Snapped!

Ye Zheng slammed his palm heavily on the table, and immediately shocked Liu Chengfeng and others. At this moment, he suppressed his anger and asked with a livid face: "I'll ask you again, what about the 3000 yuan?" Have you really distributed all the two cases of silver?"

Being pressed by him for a while, Ji Yuanjie secretly groaned in his heart, thinking that his private misappropriation of the case silver would be known to the lord, but how could he dare to admit it, so he forced himself to insist: "League... the lord Mingjian , Those 3000 cases of silver, the subordinates really put them into the hands of those hundreds of people according to human hair, if you don’t believe it, the receipts are still with Director Chen, and the leader will know when he checks.”

Hearing this, Ye Zheng was furious, threw the teacup in his hand angrily, and shouted angrily: "Ji Yuanjie! Up to now, you are still deceiving and sophistrying. I don't know what you have done during this period of time. Okay? Well, since you refuse to admit it, I will tell you in person!"

Ye Zheng stood up from the chair with a flushed face, came to his side with a livid face, pointed to his forehead, and said angrily: "On the twelfth day of this month, you used the excuse of giving out regular silver to go out of the mountain alone On a trip to Dahe County, you used 2000 taels of silver to redeem a famous red girl in Jingchun Building, and the next day you used the remaining 1000 taels of silver to buy it in Xiaowangzhuang outside Dahe County as a merchant outside the customs. After getting off a courtyard house, there are still a few maids and servants. Let me ask you now, is there any matter?"

Ji Yuanjie never imagined that none of the deceitful things he did these days could be hidden from Ye Zheng. Suddenly, he only felt his feet go soft, and he knelt down on the spot in front of Ye Zheng. In front of him, he panicked and begged for mercy: "This subordinate was confused for a while, and committed this crime because of obsession with lust. I hope the leader will forgive this subordinate for the sake of hard work in the past!..."

"Humph!"

Ye Zheng flicked his sleeves violently, lowered his head, took a deep breath, and said sharply: "Ji Yuanjie, if you raise a few women just because of your lust, I won't care about it at all, and I don't bother to care about it! However, do you know that because you embezzled these 3000 cases of silver privately, how many brothers have gone outside because they have no money to pass through, and they can't find out the crucial news and go back to the mountain. This time, the mistake you made is unforgivable! "

Having said that, Ye Zheng paused, then turned his head and asked the village master Xiahou, "Master Xiahou, what should Ji Yuanjie commit this time, in terms of mountain regulations, how should we deal with it?"

Village Master Xiahou glanced at Ji Yuanjie in disgust, and said coldly: "If you talk about the past, cut off one hand and drive out the desolation!"

Hearing that he was about to be cut off with one hand and expelled from the stronghold, Ji Yuanjie collapsed on the ground in shock, and immediately crawled to Ye Zheng's feet with snot and tears, and begged loudly: " The subordinates know their mistakes, the subordinates know their mistakes, and they will not dare to do it again next time, and ask the lord to spare their subordinates, please don't drive them out of the mountain!..."

Ye Zheng saw that his begging was very miserable, and he couldn't help feeling a little compassion in his heart, and his anger gradually subsided a lot. At that moment, he gave Ji Yuanjie a cold look, and said coldly: "This time, I I will spare you once, and if you commit the crime again next time, you will definitely not be spared lightly! Someone, take him to the execution hall and receive fifty lashes! Let the master of the hall Wang Chao hold the whip and show it to the public, as an example to others!"

When Ji Yuanjie heard that it was whipping, he was immediately overjoyed, and then fell at Ye Zheng's feet, thanking him a thousand times.

After several guards took Ji Yuanjie down, Liu Chengfeng and the village master Xiahou shook their heads and frowned.

At this time, Liu Chengfeng looked at Ji Yuanjie who was being taken down, shook his head and sighed: "In the past, I only knew that he was a greedy and lustful guy, but I didn't expect him to be so greedy for life and afraid of death. Hey...it's a waste of his work." The King of the Mountain, who has been here for so many years, has really disgraced me!"

(Quack, Ji Yuanjie, are you satisfied with the set I arranged for you?)
