My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 214
After Xu Jingchang decisively took down Wang Cong, he ordered: "Set up camp in the south of Tongzhou, don't disturb the people, don't enter Beiping, just wait here."

The subordinates were startled, and hurriedly asked: "What about those who came to welcome the Duke?"

"Let them go back, whoever thinks clearly, whoever comes to see me, if they can't figure it out, just stay at home."

The subordinates hurriedly agreed, and hurried to inform that these celebrities from Beiping, Le Diandian, came to see Xu Jingchang, wanting to sell well in front of Ding Guogong and show their face... But they didn't see them, and even threw away the commander up.

How can this be done?
Everyone was terrified and at a loss.

But Xu Jingchang camped in the south of Tongzhou.

This position is absolutely perfect, he brought five thousand elites, plus a thousand households of Jin Yiwei, no one would want to attack Ding Guogong.

He wouldn't risk his life like Zhou Shixiu did!

Sorry, I still have a fiancée, I haven't lived enough.

Xu Jingchang was completely hooked.

Huang Yunfang was dumbfounded when she saw this scene. Although the little girl is very smart, she has gained some experience with Xu Jingchang these days, but she still just wants to say that I don't understand this kind of magical operation, but I was greatly shocked .

"Guogong is the important minister of the imperial envoy this time, and he is here to avenge Zhou Shenshi. You should investigate the case, visit the truth, get the real evidence, and bring the corrupt officials to justice. Why do you hold back?"

Xu Jingchang hugged his knees with both hands, and said with a smile: "I'm not greedy for life and afraid of death! If I hurt you, I can't bear to let you watch the family."

Miss Huang's face sank, "I'm not serious, do I want to reply to my father like this?"

Xu Jingchang finally got a little more serious, "Actually, Zhou Shixiu's case is just like what Wang Cong said. In fact, everyone knows what's going on. Everyone wants him to die, and then he dies. I'll go Even if you search, you can't find anything, let alone avenge your loyal ministers."

Miss Huang nodded, "That's what I said, but I still don't understand. Can I find out anything if I don't move here?"

Xu Jingchang laughed and said, "It's not like I didn't do anything. Didn't I arrest Wang Cong?"

"Catch Wang Cong!"

Miss Huang was stunned for a long time before she realized something, "The dragons in Peking have no leader at this time!"

Xu Jingchang laughed loudly, "You finally figured it out... Zhou Shixiu must have an explanation for this case. If I pinch Wang Cong now, someone must want to protect themselves. If they can't stand it, they will come to me to deliver a letter." gone."

Miss Huang subconsciously said: "Then what if they are monolithic and no one says anything?"

"What else can I do? Don't I have Wang Cong in my hand! Next, some senior insiders will release some irrelevant news."

Miss Huang was stunned for a long time before she understood Xu Jingchang's intentions... This guy is not only full of bad things, he is almost bubbling.

There is absolutely no result in this kind of case... Even if a few generals are arrested, so what?
It's all irrelevant, and Peiping still can't be shaken.

But once Wang Cong was pinched and Peking was thrown into chaos, it wouldn't be long before someone would frantically inform them in order to protect themselves. Only in this way could the dark clouds over Peking be completely lifted.

As for how much commotion would be caused, Xu Jingchang didn't care much.

After all, he, Ding Guogong, is tough enough to even mention Wang Cong, so what else do other people have to say?
"Mr. Ding, this move of yours is really powerful. The little girl is so impressed."

Xu Jingchang smiled happily, "It's hard for you to admire, remember to get me two more vegetables, and then prepare the fishing rod, I want to catch big fish by the canal!"

Ms. Huang also smiled from the bottom of her heart, feeling very emotional... The battle of Jing Nan, two years of hard labor, almost killed her, and carved many scratches on her life.

If it were two years ago, she would only choose those talents from the south of the Yangtze River, who could write poems and songs with one mouth, who knew pain and heat, and were soft and gentle.

May I ask those people, can they protect their wives and family members?
No, I don’t have the ability to know!

Xu Jingchang was different, except for marriage matters, he was a bit slow.But in other things, he is simply shrewd.

Without Wang Cong in charge, all the people up and down in Beiping were dumbfounded.

Is Duke Ding going to vent his anger on Wang Cong?Give the court an explanation?
Soon the big guys discovered that this was not the case at all.

Xu Jingchang only detained Wang Cong and was not in a hurry to convict him.

Then all kinds of rumors came out.

Said that Wang Cong had confessed to being an accomplice, and who had murdered Zhou Shixiu... When the news came out, everyone was terrified and shuddered.

I can't sleep anymore.

This is too scary... Wang Cong has been in Beiping for more than two years. Ever since Zhu Dijing failed to succeed, he has been allowed to sit in Beiping. There are too many contacts with him. If he really starts arresting people, no one will be able to escape .

What should we do now?
Hurry up and surrender yourself, explain the matter clearly, so as not to be implicated innocently.

But there are also people who are worried that if they go, they may not be able to confess who, and do they still want to hang out in Beiping in the future?

Gradually, all over Beiping, from military generals to civil servants, from officials to wealthy households, anyone with a little influence suffered a lot, just like a duck hanging from a stove, the heat came from all directions, and it couldn't be stopped.

It's really hard to live like a year.

When is it a boss?

When it was the fifth day, Xu Jingchang held the empty fishing rod and sighed, "Beiping is really a monolith, which is admirable!"

He nodded and called a Jinyiwei Qianhu, "According to this list, arrest these three people."

On this list, one is Wang Cong's brother-in-law, one is a pusher from the Beiping Mansion, and a businessman who works in cattle and horses... The three seem to be irrelevant, and I don't know why Ding Guogong wanted to arrest him. ?

But Jin Yiwei only cares about his work and will not question Ding Guogong's decision.

Then there were three more people in the camp.

Xu Jingchang was unhurried, calm and unhurried, and would come here from time to time... His behavior was a further devastation to Beiping, cutting flesh with a blunt knife, similar to Ling Chi, and no one could stand it.

What makes everyone even more desperate is that there is absolutely nothing you can do about Xu Jingchang.

He's not Zhou Shixiu, trying to transfer him away, or assassinating him, doesn't work... Trying to make some noise and make it difficult for Xu Jingchang to fight, it doesn't work either.

Still the same sentence, Xu Jingchang's background is put here... If the movement is small, he doesn't care at all, but if the movement is big, he will directly arrest people according to the rebellion.

Wang Cong went in, do you think your neck is harder than Wang Cong?
"It's terrible! Why did His Majesty send such a copper pea!"

When the time came to the night of the sixth day, a thin figure finally appeared outside the barracks and came to ask for an audience.

"The villain is a clerk in the yamen of the prefect of Beiping. His name is Tan Mude. He is here to pay a visit to Duke Ding."

Xu Jingchang was wearing a big cloak, and sat in front of him with a smile, "Say it, I'm listening!"

Tan Mude raised his head suddenly, and said loudly: "Mr. Dingguo, Zhou Shenshu was not arrested for inspecting the military station. He was killed because of strict investigation of smuggling."

"Smuggling?" Xu Jingchang said quietly, "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes!" Tan Mude said decisively: "In the past two years, there have been people who have crossed the market and traded with various Mongolian tribes... Among them, Duoyan Sanwei is in the middle, buying and selling, making a big profit."

Xu Jingchang was startled, "That's not right. I know exactly how much trade volume the imperial court has with Duoyan Sanwei every year. It's enough for the three guards, but not much to spare."

"Hui Ding Guogong said that it is precisely because of this that some people smuggled to Duoyan Sanwei and then sold them to the rest of the Tatar tribes. Since the imperial court explicitly prohibited trade with the Tatar tribes, the Mongols on the desert, even those who cook vegetables I don’t even have an iron pot, and if I sell one, the profit will be more than ten times. I even know that a piece of tea brick can be exchanged for a good war horse!”

Xu Jingchang couldn't help but take a deep breath. A piece of low-grade tea bricks only cost a few renminbi, which is still the price of transporting it to Peiping. A good war horse costs 20 taels anyway, and there are dozens of times the profit in it!

The Mongols who were driven to the desert by the Ming Dynasty from the Huahua World in the Central Plains are experiencing the painful life from extravagance to frugality, and they can hardly survive.

"The most profitable thing in Peiping now is smuggling, right?"

Tan Mude sighed: "If you go back to Ding Guogong, if you just check the military settlements, everything will be fine. But because the grassland also needs food, and the price is very expensive. Some people wantonly annexed the land, squeezed the military households, and collected several times the tax. Sell ​​these grains to the grassland ministries. When they do this, it is natural that the military households fled, the land was annexed, and the guards were ruined. After Zhou Sensui came, he vigorously rectified, arranged personnel, inspected the Great Wall, and strictly prohibited private trade with Duoyan Sanwei. He lost his life because of it.”

Xu Jingchang frowned slightly, and gradually nodded... This makes sense, everyone wants to kill Zhou Shixiu, but the degree is different after all, only the person who hates him the most will kill him.

In this way, the situation becomes clear. Under the guard, there is another interest group, that is, the smuggling group!
They were the ones who were hit the hardest by Zhou Shixiu, and also suffered the most. They urgently needed to kill Zhou Shixiu.

"Tan Mude, do you have evidence for what you said?"

"Yes, the villain collected an account book. In the past two years, the cases that came to report because of the annexation of the land... were all suppressed by the magistrate's office. As long as Duke Ding retrials these cases, he will definitely be able to track down the murderer."

Xu Jingchang thought for a while, and immediately asked, "Where is the brochure?"

"In the little man's residence."

"I'll arrange twenty Jinyi guards to collect evidence from you."

Soon, Tiqi was dispatched and rushed towards his house with Tan Mude, but it was only a hundred feet away from his house.Suddenly saw a flame, straight into the sky.

Tan Mude rushed to the door of the house like crazy, and saw the flames soaring into the sky, and the flames flew up, engulfing all three houses of their house.

"Where are people? Did someone run out?"

The spectators around shook their heads one after another. Tan Mude's first wife and a pair of children were all buried in the flames!

If you dare to tell the truth, the whole family will die.
