At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

chapter 132
"Brother De, will you still go out in the future?" Ma Xiuying suddenly left Cheng De's arms, her eyes fixed on Cheng De's.

Cheng De froze, but he didn't bother to lie to Ma Xiuying.

Suddenly, he fell silent.

Ma Xiuying did not get a response from Cheng De, so she fell silent.

She knew what his silence meant, and it made her feel helpless and worried.

At the same time, she also knew in her heart that it might be common for people to gather less and leave more in the future.

However, the battlefield is so dangerous, in case
It's just that De Ge's purpose is to drive out the Hulu and restore China, so she can't become De Ge's burden anyway.

On the contrary, for the sake of Brother De, she will do everything possible to stabilize the rear, so that Brother De can fight on the front line with peace of mind.

It was all she could do.

She believes in herself, she will be able to do it well.

"Sister Xiuying, I promise you that I will spend more time with you when the world is settled in the future. Moreover, recently, whenever I have time, I will spend more time with you. What do you think?" Cheng De looked at Ma Xiuying, thinking Really helpless.

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiuying shook her head and said with a smile: "Brother De, you should continue to do what you want! I will always stand by Brother De and support him silently."

Cheng De looked at Ma Xiuying in a daze.

next moment.

With the sound of "baji", Ma Xiuying blushed.

She gave Cheng De a white look, and said angrily, "Brother De, you."

Cheng De smiled and said: "I haven't seen each other for the past month, and I feel that the relationship between our husband and wife is a bit weak. It just so happens that this can enhance our relationship. Let's try more every day in the future."

Ma Xiuying blushed and said, "You are the only one who makes a lot of nonsense, and you are talking nonsense."

Cheng De smiled, but did not refute.

"Sister Xiuying, you rub my shoulders, I feel a little tired. These days, my heart has been tense and I haven't relaxed at all. Now I relax, but I feel very tired." Cheng De said , There was a sense of fatigue in his eyes.

Ma Xiuying looked at Cheng De, then got up and stood behind Cheng De, rubbing Cheng De's shoulders.

Under Ma Xiuying's gentle approach, Cheng De felt very comfortable.

Before he knew it, he leaned on Ma Xiuying and dozed off.

Ma Xiuying helplessly helped Cheng De onto the bed, rested Cheng De's head on her lap, and silently looked at Cheng De.

Subconsciously, she stroked Cheng De's face with her hand, and there was some smile in her eyes.

I don't know if I thought of something interesting.

at this time.

The next person came to report, and Shi Naian asked to see him.

Ma Xiuying looked at Cheng De who had fallen asleep at this time, so she had to ask her servants to inform General Shi Naian that he was resting because he was too tired recently.

When Shi Naian waited for the servant's reply, he was stunned on the spot.

He glanced into Cheng De's room, then raised his head to look at the sky above him, with a strange flash in his eyes.

He thought to himself: Although the general is young, he still needs to be restrained.

It's not easy for him to speak about such things, so he chooses to turn a blind eye.

Immediately, Shi Naian left, ready to return to the office.

Unfortunately, I met Li Shanchang on the way.

Li Shanchang saw Shi Naian, and greeted Shi Naian, and Shi Naian returned a salute without losing his courtesy.

Shi Naian took a look at Li Shanchang, "Master Li is going to see the general?"

Li Shanchang nodded: "Yes, there are some things that I need to discuss with the general."

Shi Naian smiled and said: "I was looking for the general just now, and I learned that the general is resting. Let's wait for the general to wake up before coming to the general!"

Li Shanchang was startled, subconsciously he raised his head to look up at the sky, and fell silent for a while.

After thinking for a while, Li Shanchang finally said: "The almsgiver's words are reasonable, we'd better find another time to see the general again."

Shi Naian replied: "That's it!"

Saying that, Shi Naian nodded to Li Shanchang, and then walked past Li Shanchang.

Li Shanchang looked at Shi Naian's back, then glanced at General Cheng De's room, sighed softly, and left.

Time passed, and it was night.

When Cheng De woke up, he found that he was pillowing on Ma Xiuying's lap, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of astonishment.

When he saw Ma Xiuying's tired expression, Cheng De felt guilty.

He didn't say anything, and told Ma Xiuying to take a good rest. After watching Ma Xiuying rest, he quietly retreated from the room.

Afterwards, Cheng De returned to the study.

It didn't take long.

Zhang Qijiu asked to see him.

Cheng De met Zhang Qijiu in the study.

As soon as Zhang Qijiu saw Cheng De, he quickly bowed to Cheng De and said: "My subordinates pay respects to the general."

Cheng De directly waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the matter directly. In the future, if you can save etiquette, you can save it."

Zhang Qijiu smiled wryly in his heart, but he didn't refute.

For so long, he knew that it was better to follow the general's words, otherwise he would ask for trouble.

These are his lessons of blood and tears.

Not enough for outsiders.

Zhang Qijiu sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "General, this subordinate is here to report to the general what happened in various places in the past month."

Cheng De looked at Zhang Qijiu and said, "Before, the document you asked Jin Yiwei to send to Gaoyou City, was it just a part of it?"

Zhang Qijiu nodded: "Because too many things happened, I had no choice but to send Jin Yiwei to send the most important and urgent things to the general. However, there are other things that are also important, and my subordinates put them all together. I wrote it down. I heard that the general has been busy dealing with things since he returned to Sizhou City. It was not until today that he heard that the general had time, so the subordinates thought that while the general had time, he would truthfully report the relevant matters to the general. report back."

Cheng De looked at Zhang Qijiu with satisfaction: "Very well, you have a heart. I'm not in a hurry, let's talk about things slowly. Let's talk about what happened in Sizhou City in the past month first!"

Zhang Qijiu replied: "Yes."

Zhang Qijiu looked at Cheng De respectfully, bowed his body, and began to say: "The first thing is the investigation of human traffickers in Sizhou City."

Cheng De was startled, looked at Zhang Qijiu and asked: "Is this the matter of Mu Ying and Ma'er in the Town God's Temple? I remember that Xu Da arrested a group of people and put them in prison. After that, I handed over the matter to You went to investigate, and I still remember to give you some ledgers. Those ledgers, follow the clues, have you found out who they are?"

Zhang Qijiu nodded: "Report to the general, everything has been found out. A total of seven people were involved in this human trafficking incident."

Cheng De looked at Zhang Qijiu calmly.

Seeing this, Zhang Qijiu continued: "These seven people are Li Zilong, Wei Yuanjie, Shi Shoucai, Shi Shoutian, Zhang Jian, Li Xin, and Liu Min."

"Tell me about their identities." Cheng De said calmly, looking at the desk in front of him.

Zhang Qijiu continued: "Li Zilong is the third largest grain merchant in Sizhou City. He has [-] grain shops in Sizhou City. He started his business as a salt seller in the early years. Food. But"

Speaking of this, Zhang Qijiu looked a little hesitant.

Cheng De raised his head slightly and glanced at Zhang Qijiu.

Zhang Qijiu said: "It's just that this person has some strange hobbies. General, have you heard of beauty bowls, beauty papers, and foot warmers?"

Zhang Qijiu only mentioned three kinds, and he didn't say anything else.

He was worried that he would disgust the general, and when the general got angry, he might be hurt.

Cheng De shook his head slightly.

Zhang Qijiu then said: "This Li Zilong has to rinse his mouth before and after meals, and sometimes he spits or something, so there is a spittoon at home. But Li Zilong doesn't use a spittoon, he thinks it's not clean, so He bought a large number of maids from human traffickers and specially followed him. Once he was about to rinse his mouth or spit, those maids would kneel in front of him and open their mouths to catch Li Zilong's spit. This is the so-called "beauty bowl" '."

Cheng De's complexion changed, and then, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

Sensing Cheng De's expression, Zhang Qijiu quickly lowered his head, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

He didn't expect that as the general's power became stronger and stronger, when the general was angry, the air pressure around him was really terrifying.

It also made Zhang Qijiu's heart tremble a little.

"What a 'beauty bowl', it really opened my eyes. Has Li Zilong been taken down?" Cheng De's eyes were cold.

Zhang Qijiu hurriedly replied: "General Qi, Li Zilong's family of hundreds of people have all been captured by the Jinyiwei, and now they are being detained in a Jinyiwei Thousand Households Unit in Sizhou City."

Cheng De said calmly: "Jin Yiwei did a good job in this matter."

Hearing this, Zhang Qijiu breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before he had time to breathe a sigh of relief, Cheng De's voice suddenly sounded faintly.

"What is this beauty paper, foot warmer, etc. Please tell me carefully."

Zhang Qijiu was breaking out in a cold sweat.

He quietly took a look at Cheng De's face and found that Cheng De was staring at him closely. Zhang Qijiu had no choice but to say: "Wei Yuanjie, Shi Shoucai, Shi Shoutian, and Zhang Jian often take pleasure in torturing maidservants. The four of them The people are cloth merchants, salt merchants, grain merchants, and tea merchants. This beauty paper was passed down from these four people."

Speaking of this, Zhang Qijiu suddenly felt sick to his stomach.

He was hesitating whether to continue or not.

However, he felt Cheng De's eyes were always on him.

Zhang Qijiu sighed lightly, and continued: "These four people bought a large number of maids from human traffickers, and the four of them thought it was uncomfortable to use straw paper when going to the toilet, so the 'beauty paper' appeared, just like the beauty bowl , let the servant girl act as paper to clean up the remaining dirt, as for how to clean it up"

Zhang Qijiu couldn't continue, because he saw Cheng De's complexion became more and more ugly.

Cheng De patted the desk in front of him and said angrily: "These four people created the 'beauty paper'. These four people have bad intentions. This unhealthy trend must not grow and must be severely punished. Since these four people have created the 'beauty paper', then I Also create a "livestock paper" for them. These four people like to be used as paper so much, so let them serve as paper for the rest of their lives, cleaning up the remaining dirt from the pigs and donkeys raised by my general's mansion !"

Zhang Qijiu raised his head and looked at Cheng De in shock.

At the same time, his face twitched even more.

General, it's really scary.

"These four have been taken down, right? I don't believe it, they only bought maidservants from human traffickers."

Hearing Cheng De's words, Zhang Qijiu didn't hesitate in the slightest: "Reporting to the general, the seven people I mentioned before, each of them bears at least ten lives, and some of them are more. The Jinyiwei brothers have sorted out the ins and outs of the murder, and now these files are placed in the file room of the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office."

Cheng De breathed a sigh of relief, "In this case, the four people just now, just follow my instructions, let them experience the feeling of being a paper, the time limit is the rest of their lives."

Zhang Qijiu nodded, but did not speak.

He found that the general's punishment for these four people was absolutely perfect.

He couldn't help secretly admiring him in his heart.

"Then what is the beautiful maidservant? It should be related to Li Xin and Liu Min that you didn't mention, right?" Cheng De glanced at Zhang Qijiu who lowered his head lightly.

Zhang Qijiu nodded with difficulty.

"Li Xin and Liu Min, one is the tortoise of Nuanfang Pavilion, and the other is the old bustard of Nuanfang Pavilion. They are also the boss of Nuanfang Pavilion, and they are husband and wife. This Nuanfang Pavilion is a place for hooking up. This The beautiful maidservant is Liu Min's masterpiece. In order to satisfy the guests who patronize Warm House, she bought a large number of maidservants at a low price from human traffickers. Holding it in my arms, but at the same time not affecting the guests' sleep and doing such things, this job is simply torture for the maids. There are more than a dozen maids who can't stand it, and choose to commit suicide by jumping into the well."

"The subordinates secretly investigated Nuanfang Pavilion. Over the past few years, in Nuanfang Pavilion, there have been [-] maids who committed suicide every year. For other ways of death, the subordinates also investigated and collected evidence, and there were quite a few maids who died. But Most of these maids chose to commit suicide because they were treated as beauties by Liu Min and couldn't bear all kinds of torture, and there are many witnesses of these servants."

Cheng De fell silent after listening.

He looked at Zhang Qijiu and said, "Where is Liu Min locked up?"

Zhang Qijiu said: "The subordinates have sent Jin Yiwei to control the whole Nuanfang Pavilion, and they are all imprisoned in Nuanfang Pavilion."

Cheng De's eyes were so calm that there was no wave, and he said in a calm tone: "Liu Min is the initiator of the beauties, I am afraid that many people died because of her. Since the beauties are made by her, if she is not allowed to experience that kind Desperate, I'm afraid her life is not complete for her, I don't mind helping with this. Let her be a "maidmaid" in the prison of Sizhou City, where many vicious people are imprisoned Let her warm the feet of those people for the rest of her life! Remember, don’t let her die easily, just let her live like this, without my order, and never be released. As for Li Xin, he will regret it for the rest of his life in prison Get over it!"

Zhang Qijiu said in a trembling tone: "Yes. This subordinate will never let Liu Min die easily, and promise to let Li Xin spend every day in prison in remorse."

"As for Li Zilong, since he created the beauty bowl, let him be the 'yu' for the rest of his life, and sometimes change roles, life is perfect! This matter, let Jin Yiwei pay close attention to me, and don't let him take it easy died."

"As for the family members of these seven people, all those who are innocent will be released, and those who are guilty will be handed over to Zhu Sheng, so that he, the head of the Ministry of Punishments, will convict and punish those who should be punished. By the way, the laws of Sizhou should be almost completed. Bar?

Zhang Qijiu hurriedly replied: "Master Zhu has completed the laws of Sizhou a few days ago, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice is busy correcting them. They plan to submit them to the general after correcting."

Cheng De nodded, "Sizhou City, is there anything else?"

Zhang Qijiu looked at Cheng De's face first, and then said: "The second matter in Sizhou City is about Zhu Yuanzhang."

Cheng De raised his head, looked at Zhang Qijiu impressively, glanced at him sharply, and said with mixed emotions: "Let's listen."
