Dragon Soul in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 7 Bold Strategies

After Zhu Gan left, there was silence in front of the yamen, only the sound of explosions in the brazier not far away, after all, someone couldn't help but talk.

"The nostrils are almost open to the sky, who is this guy!" A guard saw an acquaintance who had been drinking among the soldiers, and asked in a low voice.

The soldier was also very curious. He looked around and saw that many people were coming together. He suddenly thought of showing off, and said mysteriously: "The night is dark and the wind is high to kill people. The thick and decayed city gates are creaking." Being pushed away, the sound was ear-piercing, like a knife cutting a bone, and I saw a white horse galloping into the city quickly, and I led the people to shout, who is it? The lord Zhizhou ordered the whole city to curfew, Hurry up and get off the horse and suffer. Guess what happened to that man, he was so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy, Lord Jun! I have a will in my hand..."

"Tch! What a mess, I thought he was listening to an opera! This person is not simple anyway." Suddenly someone couldn't help but sneered.

The crowd dispersed, this person had no chance to show off, he glared at that person bitterly, but he was thinking in his heart how to curry favor with this noble person, maybe this would be his chance to make a fortune.

From the beginning to the end, the people here have never seen any will or order, and they have never doubted it at all. Even if there is fear, no one dares to say it.

Zhu Gan stopped, looked at the tallest and strongest person in the crowd, and asked appreciatively, "What's your name, where are you from, what position do you hold, how many words can you read..."

The man stood upright and looked at Zhu Qian. He didn't know what was going on in his mind, and finally he bent slightly and cupped his hands and said: "Shi Song, a local, has no official position, no fame, help someone, support the family, and earn some money." Small money..."

Zhu Gan looked at this person in surprise, and dared to say something that he had no fame, this person might have a rough heart!He smiled and said: "Okay, only after reading the books of sages and sages can we know the principles of sages and sages." After speaking, he turned around and walked quickly to the most lively place in the Zhizhou yamen, leaving behind everyone who was puzzled.

At this time, in the back hall of Zhizhou Yamen, several people with the highest status in Zhuozhou City had discussed for a day, but today there was one more person. in the city.

At this time, Fang Kezhuang took the first place, took a sip of the tea, and said in a deep voice: "How decent is it? Why don't you sit down quickly, Yu Tai, you also know that the military households in the guard have already become farmers. They take up weapons to fight, it is better to ask them to pick up hoes to farm, if you want me to say, don’t worry about the military in Zhuozhou City, let Governor Ziliang do everything..."

This is not any other place. All the people present, those who can get a half-job in Zhuozhou, none of them have seen it, and none of them are old-fashioned officials.

This is not a small matter of suppressing bandits. It is less than sixty miles away from the capital, and if there is any disturbance at random, it will be catastrophic, so you have to think hard about it.

As the general of Zhuozhou, Yu Tai is not tall, but looks a little thin, his old face is sallow and full of wrinkles, and he looks more like an old farmer through vicissitudes.

On the contrary, he is not such an honest person as he seems, he is very shrewd, watching the behavior of his subordinates, either calm or angry, in short, he wants to muddy the water, now that Fang Kezhuang came to ask him to hand over his military power, he I sneered in my heart, who do you think you are!The chief envoy of Henan can't control himself.

Standing up suddenly, he squeezed his big fingers, making crackling noises. Fang Kezhuang was so frightened that he quickly shrank back. Even Qian Ming, who was about to continue speaking, didn't dare to speak anymore. I have old arms and legs, so I don't dare to fight this guy hard.

But Yu Tai said dryly: "It's getting late, everyone wash up and go to sleep! My ignorant mother-in-law is still waiting for me to go back and make medicine for him!"

Snapped!Fang Kezhuang slapped the table heavily, stood up and said angrily, "Yu Tai, don't pretend to be crazy for me, show your attitude today!"

Yu Tai turned around, blinked a pair of extremely cloudy old eyes, and replied in astonishment: "What are you talking about, I'm old, I can't hear clearly, I have to go home and have a good rest, I'm leaving first. "

Even the old fox Fang Kezhuang couldn't help but feel admiration for Yu Tai's supernatural powers. This guy is smarter than a civil servant. He turned his anger into a smile, and said in a harmonious voice: "Bashan! Go back and have a good rest. This Zhuozhou City Can't break."

"Who says it can't be collapsed, let me see! This Zhuozhou City has already collapsed." With presumptuous and bold ridicule, Zhu Gan walked in amidst the stunned expressions of everyone, and looked at them defiantly.

"You are so brave, do you know where this is?"

"Who are you..."

"Housekeeper, where are you all dead? How come no one stops you from running in..."

No matter how everyone yelled, no one outside the house responded, and it was so quiet that only their bluffs could be heard.

……

Looking at the people with gloomy faces, Zhu Qian found an empty chair and sat down leisurely. After standing for so long, the injuries in his body recurred, the pain was like insect bites, and the taste of bone erosion made him try to lower his voice as much as possible: "Sit down! I didn't expect me to be so lucky. There are so many big people here, so I won't run around and catch them all in one go!"

"White Lotus Sect, my life is over!" Fang Kezhuang fell off his chair in shock, his eyes were dull, and he kept muttering.

"Ah! You belong to the White Lotus Sect, how did you enter the city?" Qian Ming suddenly panicked, looked around, not knowing what to do, and said in horror.

The peasant army and Houjin are the ones who have caused the most trouble in recent years. The White Lotus Sect has not caused much trouble and uprisings, but for these officials, once the White Lotus Sect rises, it is an enemy that is more difficult to deal with than the peasant army. They have been revolting all the time. , has never been eliminated.

But now a man came in suddenly, and said in front of them that he was from the White Lotus Sect, they became prisoners, the civil servants were already panicked, and those warriors who screamed so loudly also stopped their flags, they had already lost their blood, and even the literati were afraid Three points, not to mention these murderous monsters.

Yu Tai, on the other hand, remained calm and sat back in his seat, waiting for this person's next move.

According to Zhu Qian's vision, if he suddenly appeared in Zhizhou Yamen, Zhuozhou Zhizhou would be shocked, and then he would present the facts, tell stories, and use the truth to make the panicked official appoint him to lead the army and resist the siege of the White Lotus Sect. Along the way, he sent out all the people in the yamen, leaving only a few people who came with him.

But I didn't expect my joking words to make these Ming Dynasty officials completely panic. What's even more outrageous is that no one shouted angrily or raised doubts. With such an official, no matter how diligent Emperor Chongzhen was, Ming Dynasty Zhao really should die.

Now Zhu Qian is in a difficult situation, you don't play cards according to common sense, how should I take it!

While thinking about what to do, he crossed his legs and said contemptuously: "Tell me! What kind of officials are you and what positions are you in, hmph! I have already asked the people outside, if anyone dares to say something deceitful , it will not be me who will come in, but the sword of the White Lotus Sect..."

"Forgive me! Forgive me!" Sitting on the ground, Fang Kezhuang yelled in shock. He didn't know if he was pretending to be stupid on purpose, or he was really scared.

One person said flatteringly, "Hero, spare your life, I'm recruiting. This is Fang Kezhuang, the chief envoy of Henan Province, and this is Qian Ming, the prefect..."

Seeing someone make a confession, the others were afraid that they would be left behind, so they rushed to answer regardless of face.

Zhu Gan was astonished, he didn't expect to catch such a big fish, Henan chief envoy is a big member of the party!The real big officials in the frontier, the civil and military officials in Zhuozhou city, were all eaten by him, but unfortunately there was no one available around him.

Seeing the officials of the Ming Dynasty commit suicide, Zhu Qian had a more adventurous plan in his heart. He walked up to Yu Tai. Otherwise, he will be torn to pieces by angry officials.

"You are Yu Tai, the defender of Zhuozhou, where is your saber?"

Yu Tai didn't stand up, nor did he look at the eyes of the surrounding officials, and said calmly, "My old bones can't stand the bumps, so don't talk about it. You can kill or cut whatever you want."

"I didn't expect you to have a lot of backbone." Zhu Qian smiled coldly. Now is not the time for heroes to cherish each other. He pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and before everyone could react, he rushed at Fang Kezhuang, the chief minister of Henan Province. , A knife pierced his chest, but he didn't stab the heart, so it wasn't fatal.
