Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 293 Robbery of Beisi 2

Jia Cong and others fought all the way in. As soon as they entered the Yimen, a tall and menacing man walked towards them.

"Master Jia led people to attack Beizhen Fusi. Why? Could it be that he doesn't take the court's laws into consideration?" The person who came was wearing a gauze crown and an azure flying fish general's official uniform. He looked at the man lying on the ground. The captain of the Bei Division looked ashen.

Jia Cong glanced sideways at him and sneered: "Are you Tang Yan?"

"It's me. What's wrong with Mr. Jia..."

Before Tang Yan could even say the words "See you for advice", Jia Cong had already kicked him hard, put him on his stomach, and kicked him out. He immediately jumped forward and stepped on his face, killing him. Trampled to death underfoot.

Everyone was shocked.

The people in the Bei Division did not expect that the visitor would be so "arrogant" and killed the governor without even saying a word.

The people in Nansi didn't expect Jia Cong to be so fierce, and he only wanted to beat up a minion. Even the chief seal officer of Beitang didn't look down on him.

Beizhen Fusi has a high position and calls himself Beitang. Although his rank is not high, except for the commander of the Jinyi Guards, other third and fourth grade Jinyi colleagues and officials are not taken seriously at all.

"You! Looking for death!" Tang Yan's face was deformed by being stepped on, and he pressed heavily against the cold ground, struggling to spit out a few words.

"Rescue your lord!" Two thousand households from the Bei Division hurriedly directed the captains to draw their swords and fight.

Jia Cong didn't even look at it, he just looked up to the sky and laughed.

Just a clang sound was heard, and dozens of swords were unsheathed.

Crack! Chacha! The sound of limbs being severed by the blade was heard, and dozens of Xiuchun knives crashed to the ground together with the palms holding the knives.

Blood spurted all over the ground, staining patches of red plum blossoms on the snow.

Only then did he hear screams and exclamations that shook the sky.

Dozens of Bei Division lieutenants pinched their severed wrists and backed away howling miserably. Everyone in the Bei Division was frightened and frightened, and did not dare to go forward for a while.

Jia Cong smiled coldly and uttered a few words: "Don't overestimate your own capabilities!" Then he looked down at Tang Yan at his feet.

"Tang Yan, what is your title and position?"

"伱! Let me go!" Tang Yan struggled desperately as blood filled his pupils.

"Don't say yes." Jia Cong exerted a little force on his feet. Now that his muscles and bones were strong, he could push down with more than a thousand pounds of force. How could Tang Yan be able to break free.

Tang Yan felt severe pain and rattling in his facial bones, as if he would crush him under his feet at any time. He didn't dare to be stubborn anymore and said with difficulty: "I'm an official... Wujue, the current envoy of Beizhen."

Jia Cong sneered: "I am a first-class official, Dang Koubo, and a third-rank official in Jinyi. How dare you, a fourth-rank official with sesame seeds and mung beans, be rude to me? It seems that Beisi is really rotten. Even the family law is gone! Zhou Wei, a member of our guard, what kind of crime should he do if he commits the following crime?"

Zhou Wei, who was in charge of punishing thousands of households, bowed and said: "Your Excellency, according to the law of Jinyiwei family, if you disrespect your superiors, the following offenders should be punished by 'scrubbing'."

"Well, that's good. Take it!" Jia Cong tiptoed and kicked Tang Yan away. His own soldiers tied him up and held him in the hall.

"I want to see the commander!" Tang Yan roared.

Noisy! Yan Shuangying went over and removed his jaw directly.

Jia Cong shook his cloak and ignored it. He walked into the main hall of the Bei Division and sat down after the big case.

"Thousands of households with Bei Si at home, get out of here!"

Thousands of households in Beisi saw that all the governors were tied up, and they couldn't afford to use violence. They didn't know where Jia Cong found these ruthless soldiers.

They are good at gathering intelligence, torturing prisoners, and concocting crimes, but if they really want to fight with a knife, they are far from it.

"For those of low rank, I will see you, Lord Tongzhi." The thousands of households, all masters who knew that a good man does not suffer the immediate consequences, hurriedly knelt down to pay homage.

Jia Cong smiled coldly: "As soon as I took office, I heard that Nan Si has not received any salary for several years and cannot afford to eat. What do you say?"

"Your Excellency, this matter is actually passed between the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War. The Wei Li did not receive any money or food. I asked the Ministry of Revenue and they said that military expenditures have already been allocated to the Ministry of War.

When I asked the Ministry of War, I was told that the emperor's personal army was not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. I asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs and told me that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had nothing to do with military matters. I really can't open the pot anymore. "

Jia Cong chuckled and said: "I see, since Wei is in such a difficult situation, let's just eat from the big pot. You help me, I'll help you, and the days will pass. Qiao Yin and Wen Zhen took people to the warehouse to collect money and food. Shuangying, bring a team of soldiers to follow, and anyone who dares to stop will be cut down by me!"

"Yes!" Everyone took the order and left.

"Sir, we can't do it. There are many stolen goods and evidences in the warehouse that are under trial, and we can't move them." Thousands of households knelt down and begged with weeping faces.

Jia Cong sneered and said: "Isn't it true that you are the only one in the Northern Division who can try cases? Fang Ji, take people to the experience room and move all the files over the years for me. We have to do something for others since we are fed by the Northern Division."

"Yes!" Fang Ji took the order and left.

"Sir!" All the families in the Bei Division were frightened to death. None of the cases in the files were clean. How could they withstand the scrutiny of the hungry ghosts from the Nan Division?

"The Southern Division has the right to supervise the Northern Division. Do you need me to teach you?" Jia Cong sneered.

Thousands of households were speechless, as if they were dead. This inspection was too thorough, and they were clearly trying to dig up the foundation of Beisi.

Suddenly I heard a hearty laughter coming from the door.

"I've been relegated to the Royal Guards. I've been busy these days, so I haven't had time to serve wine to welcome the wind. Please forgive me for my sins." A middle-aged tall and thin man wearing a bright red embroidered gold unicorn suit and a jade belt walked in. It was Commander Wan Jin. .

"Master Commander, Master Jia wants to rob Bei Division's warehouse and file, please make the decision." Thousands of households cried and fell at Wan Jin's feet.

Wan Jin looked at Tang Yan, the beizhen messenger who was being escorted and kneeling aside, gasping for breath, with a black footprint on his face. He forced a smile and said: "What's going on? Why did Brother Jia have an affair with Brother Tang?" Dispute, isn't this a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple? I would like to be a peacemaker. How about having a drink at noon today and letting go of the grudges with a smile? "

Jia Cong was so happy that he was wearing a uniform. He was also wearing a unicorn suit today. He didn't bother to get up and said calmly: "Commander Wan, I'm not talking about you. Your brother has been the envoy of Beizhen for so long. He deserves to be the leader of the Lian family. I have forgotten that you cannot escape the crime of lax discipline.

I am a first-class uncle and Jinyi Tongzhi, who promotes Nanzhen Fu to be the governor. I must teach him a lesson, otherwise the outsiders will be a dignified Jinyiwei and even lose the dignity of the king. "

When Wan Jin heard this, he knew he couldn't be kind. Jia Cong left no room for it and sneered, "What does Jia Tongzhi want?"

"I have been ordered by the emperor to rectify the Jin Yiwei. Naturally, I have to clean up the bad apples. I will not let a bad person go, nor will I wrongly accuse a good person. Does Commander Wan have any objections?" Jia Cong said with a smile.

Wan Jin hesitated for a moment, but he did not dare to object openly to this, so he could only frown and said: "Nan Division has the power of supervision. This is true, but things must be done in accordance with the rules. How can we act arbitrarily!"

boom! Jia Cong stood up and yelled: "Are you worthy of talking to me about rules? As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, you have not paid food and salary to the Nansi for several years, causing the Nansi to be ruined. Which rule is this? Today, I am going to act recklessly. If you don’t accept it, leave, and I will go to the palace with you to litigate the matter before the saint!"

With that said, he took Wan Jin and walked out.

How dare Wan Jin go to court with him to litigate in front of Emperor Xifeng? Isn't this looking for death? He hurriedly broke away his wrist and said sincerely: "Jia Tongzhi, why should I bring this matter to the imperial court and cause trouble to the emperor? Family scandals should not be made public. Do you want Jin Yiwei to become a laughing stock?"

Jia Cong had already expected it, turned around and sneered: "Then Commander Wan, don't worry about how I clean up."

Wan Jin watched boxes of gold, silver, jewelry and files being carried away, helpless. Who made Jia Cong win unexpectedly today and capture the thief and the king? There were at least thousands of Jin Yiwei in Shenjing City, but in the rush, where Adjustable. Tang Yan was captured again, and the Bei Division was leaderless and unable to organize resistance.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Brothers from the Northern Division, don't be anxious. I am the most fair person. Today I have come to the Northern Division to rob you of your things. If you are not convinced, you can come to the Southern Division to rob you. I welcome you." At that time, my subordinates were not as polite as they are today. If you are not afraid of death, feel free to come. It would be better for me to kill you all, and avoid the hard work of sorting out the loyal, traitors, good and evil. Wouldn't it be pleasant? ?”

Everyone shuddered, they heard the murderous intention in Jia Cong's words. This murderer was really not afraid of killing all the people of the Bei Division. In addition, they did not dare to attack the Nan Division with open fire. This was tantamount to treason.

Wan Jin saw that he couldn't do anything, and his heart changed. Under the emperor's feet, I don't believe that you, Jia Cong, dare to massacre Beisi. Just as he was about to order everyone in the Bei Division to resist and stop him, he suddenly felt his shoulders tightening and he was already being held by Jia Cong. An irresistible force came and he was pulled aside.

"Commander Wan, why should you and I be so tense when we meet for the first time? In the final analysis, we are all doing things for the imperial court. Brothers are also dedicated to the public, fulfill their duties, and never dare to have any selfish motives. Come on, come on, let's have a cup of tea and chat here. I heard The tea from Beisi is much better than that from Nansi." Jia Congpi said with a smile.

Wan Jin felt as if his shoulders were being clamped by iron pliers, and saw Jia Cong's eyes showing a fierce look. Thinking that the man in front of him was a murderer who dared to kill the Queen on the Thousand-Autumn Festival, how could he dare to resist, so he followed Jia Cong and sat down obediently.

"Brother Wan, those who know the current affairs are heroes. Do you think the Supreme Emperor can protect you for the rest of your life? Just think about it." Jia Cong whispered a few words, patted him twice on the shoulder, turned around and shouted: "A group of people who don't You're a piece of trash with long eyes, and you can't even serve Commander Wan a cup of tea."

Everyone in the Bei Division went to pour tea with grimaces.

Why don't Wan Jin, Tang Yan and others understand the truth that "the green mountains cannot cover it, and it will flow eastward after all", but they are the Supreme Emperor's people. If they rebel, they may die faster. Even if they join the army, they will never get anything. Trust, on the contrary, is likely to be sacrificed.

From the day he ascended the throne, they were ordered by the Supreme Emperor to control the Jinyiwei, and they were already on the road to death.

Wan Jin had a gloomy look on his face, frowning and saying nothing.

As a commander in imperial robes, if he stomps his feet casually, the capital will tremble. Normally, any noble prince or court official would not bow his head when seeing him, but today, he was controlled to death by Jia Cong's unruly methods. Damn it, how can I bear this tone.

Jia Cong chuckled and said: "Even if I don't agree with my brothers, it's better to be patient today, otherwise we will suffer the immediate loss and make everyone look bad. I don't know how serious my brother's actions are. If I hurt my brother , but I can’t help it.”

Wan Jin glanced at Tang Yan, who was kneeling aside, his body covered with mud, his eyes splitting, and he sighed secretly, he couldn't admit his defeat now.

Yin sneered and said: "Master Jia acted unexpectedly. We will have more dealings with you in the future, so please take care of yourself."

Seeing that he had given in, Jia Cong smiled and said: "Thanks to the commander, I will take good care of myself and repay God's kindness."

Wan Jin snorted coldly and turned away, ignoring him. No matter what, the dignified commander of the Jinyi Guards was held hostage in his own yamen, but there was nothing he could do about a fool like Jia Cong.

"Your Excellency, I found prisoners in the prison who were low-level officials crying for injustice, and many of them were important officials of the imperial court." Zhou Wei hurriedly stepped forward to report.

"Huh? Such a thing could happen?" Jia Cong said seductively: "You dare to launch unjust prisons. Where is the national law?"

Everyone in the Bei Division looked at each other, not daring to answer. They secretly cursed you, do you dare to be more fake with your expression? It's clear that he's singing a double act, yet he still comes to question me and others.

"Take me to see it! Commander Wan, why don't you come together to see what Bei Division is doing?" Jia Cong stared at Wan Jin.

Wan Jin had no choice but to go in with him because of the situation.

The Fusi Imperial Prison in Beizhen was dark and dark, with a strong stench and endless screams, just like hell.

Jia Cong ignored the ordinary criminals in front and walked straight to the deepest cell where the court officials were detained.

"My lords, I am Jia Cong, the first-class Dang Koubo, Jinyi Tongzhi, and Nanzhen's envoy appointed by His Majesty. Do you have any grievances?" Jia Cong asked, looking at the dozen officials who were locked in several cells in front of him.

None of these officials were human beings. When they heard that there was a turn of events, they hurriedly banged on the cell door and shouted: "Sir, our injustice is deeper than the sea. I beg you to redress our injustice. I will die in retribution."

"Sir, I was beaten into a trap and I beg you to redress me."

"My lord, I...I have been wronged, lord. I have always been honest, self-denial, and dedicated to the public. My lord is very aware of this."

"Bastard, you are incorruptible. What do you say about the hundreds of thousands of dollars in your family? You have disregarded human lives and occupied people's fields. You have deducted money from river workers. You have embezzled money for disaster relief. How dare you quibble?" Bei Division Chief Xing Qianhu pointed at the crowd and shouted angrily.

"Sir, I was wronged. I beg you to retry me." The officials didn't care about him, they just shouted about the injustice.

Jia Cong sneered and said: "I will tell whether you are loyal or traitorous, honest or corrupt. Come here, bring all the criminals back to Nansi."

"Yes!" Zhou Wei and others agreed in unison, pulling the prison head over to open the door.

"Sir, this is against the rules." Everyone in Beisi looked embarrassed and said with cupped hands.

"Rules? What rules? Look at the cases you handled. Everyone is complaining about injustice. Now Nan Division is going to retry. It's reasonable and legal. What kind of bullshit rules are you talking about with me? Open the door! Anyone who dares to stop will be killed!"

"Yes!"

Clang! All the soldiers unsheathed their swords at the same time and stared at the Beisi people.

Murderous intent arose in the prison.

The cell boss was so frightened that he didn't dare to resist. He opened the cell doors one by one, trembling. Everyone in the Northern Division was helpless, and what Jia Cong said made sense. This was what the Southern Division was doing, and now that they had strong troops and horses, no one dared to stop them.

"You gentlemen have suffered, and I will give you justice." Jia Cong said harmoniously.

"Thank you, Lord, for your kindness. It's not a pity to be a low-ranking official and wait for death, but I don't dare to let anyone tarnish my reputation." All the officials knelt down together and cried in unison.

Jia Cong secretly lamented that these corrupt officials were all fucking movie stars, and each and every one of them acted just like the real ones. Mr. Bao would be heartbroken when he saw them, and Hai Rui would cry when he saw them.

"Well, let's go." Jia Cong waved his hand and went out first. The sanitary environment of this prison was too bad. Let alone the torture, the fumes would kill people.

Under the ruthless transportation of hundreds of Nansi captains, the vehicle had been loaded for two rounds. It was not until the sun was high that Fang Ji came over to report, sweating profusely.

"Your Excellency, the money and food owed by the Nan Division for several years have been paid in full, and the files and prisoner's equipment have been escorted. Please show me."

"Then let's go back and invite Tang Zhenfu back to assist in the investigation. After all, he handled the case and there have been so many injustices. He can't walk away patting his ass. Commander Wan, my brother has said goodbye. I have time to come to Nansi for a drink. Tea." Jia Cong stood up and stretched.

"Wait a minute! The envoy to Tang Town has been appointed by the Supreme Emperor. You can't take him away!" Wan Jin shouted.

Jia Cong sneered and said: "It's ridiculous. None of the officials in the prison just now were appointed by the emperor. How come the Bei Division arrests and beats them whenever they want? The prince committed the same crime as the common people, not to mention the mere envoy of Bei Town. Take him away! "

None of the people knew the difference between hand-picked and appointed. Seeing Jia Cong blatantly changing the concept, they could only sigh inwardly that such a shameless person was really the material of a royal guard.

"You!" Wan Jin watched Jia Cong flick his cloak and go away, and his soldiers escorted Tang Yan away. He gritted his teeth with hatred, and suddenly his throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.

"Sir, please take care, don't fall into the trap." Everyone in the Bei Division was busy hugging Wan Jin. Now that Tang Yan was gone, they only had Wan Jin as their backbone.

Wan Jin forcibly swallowed the blood, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "The four thousand households will follow me in, and the rest will return to their respective positions. Those who are not allowed to mess up their positions, talk nonsense, and disturb the morale of the army will be served by family law!"

"Yes!"

Wan Jin stared at the door with sinister eyes. "Jia Cong, my son, you dare to do whatever you want because of your favor. I will let you know that Jinyiwei is not a place where you can do whatever you want."

　If you were Commander Wan, what means would you use to retaliate against Jia Cong?
