Chapter 320 Pressure
Chapter 320 Pressure
The burly and strong man took people away regardless of dissuasion.
Seeing that the rest of the thieves were worried about the safety of their home, they also quietly evacuated from the tunnel with the dead.
Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Guo Cheng could only yell at Ji Ming for being shameless.
It's just that at this moment, he can't help venting wantonly.
Seeing that there were less than five hundred people around him, he immediately called the housekeeper to whisper a few words, repaired several letters and ordered him to go out from a secret place to ask for help.
It's just that he doesn't know.
Now the entire city of Yangzhou has a radius of more than ten miles, and spies are secretly watching all the aristocratic families and official residences.
Before the person he sent to deliver the letter approached, he was captured by Liu Rong's men.
"Your Highness!"
Two into the courtyard.
Liu Rong hurried in.
Holding a stack of letter papers in his hand, he bowed and said, "Sure enough, as His Highness expected, Guo Cheng panicked and asked for help everywhere.
Now it is known that half of the officials in Yangzhou Prefecture are related to him, and Zheng Chang, the captain of Zhechong, is also his relative by marriage.
more than this.
Every year, Guo Cheng would donate tens of thousands of coins to the Duke of Changping County to manage the ministers of the court.
His youngest daughter is also the favored concubine of the eldest grandson of the Langya Wang family. "
Xiao Guizi took the letter paper, turned around and presented it carefully.
Su Jing flipped through it casually for a while, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly raised.
He ordered people to besiege but not attack, just waiting for Guo Cheng to expose his shortcomings.
It seems that even smart people who have been in the arena for decades still cannot keep calm when life and death are at stake.
"not enough!
Although Zhang Liang is Guo Cheng's backer, he will never contact him personally.
In the government office of Yangzhou, there must be someone to do it for him.
And this person must be the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhao Quanzhi!
No matter what method you use, I must find out who this person is within three days! "
Liu Rong cupped his hands and saluted, and said: "I obey my orders!"
Su Jingting nodded, casually flipping through the rest of the letters, but suddenly his eyes froze.
"Old Liu.
Who is this Liu Quan, who actually acts in the name of Hengshan County King!
If I remember correctly, there is no one named Liu Quan among Li Chengqian's cronies! "
"Your Highness is wise!"
Liu Rong nodded, and said seriously: "According to the report from the spies of the county prince's mansion, this Liu Quan is not under Hengshan county prince.
But the King of Hengshan has a lot of trust in him, and this person also participated in the secret planning of the King of Hengshan in the past.
It's just that Liu Quan acted extremely cautiously, and the spies evaded him ingeniously following him several times.
So up to now, I still don't know who the master behind it is. "
"Oh~
It was beyond Ben Gong's expectation that the lame prince actually surrendered.
But I would like to see who is so bold! "
Su Jing sneered, and carefully looked at the letter paper at the end.
The tone of this letter to Langya Wang seems to be a bit off.
"Show the Guo Mansion.
Since Guo Cheng is so important, I don't mind putting more pressure on him! "
"promise!"
……
Moon stars are rare.
Su Jing, escorted by more than a hundred cavalry, came to the gate of Guo Mansion alone.
Guo Cheng, who was inside the courtyard wall, heard the movement, stepped on the wooden ladder and carefully peeked out.
Seeing Su Jing coming out more and more, he couldn't help shouting loudly: "His Royal Highness!
I don't know what serious crime I, Guo Cheng, committed, so that His Highness mobilized a large army to encircle and suppress my Guo family.
Your Highness is so reckless, isn't he afraid of impeachment by the court officials? "
"Hehe~
Impeach? !
Guo Cheng.
When I was in Chang'an, I would be impeached by the censor every day, but what loss has the Japanese Palace had so far? "
Su Jing smiled disdainfully.
Looking up at the furious Guo Cheng, he said coldly: "If you dare to send someone to intercept and kill my relatives, you have already committed the crime of ransacking your family and exterminating your family!
If it wasn't for Ben Gong wanting to see your whole family die in terror, how would you still be alive at this moment.
But don't worry, I won't kill you today.
When Zhao Quan's family members come to attend the funeral, someone will take your entire family's life. "
Guo Cheng was startled when he heard the words, all doubts in his heart disappeared.
He was still wondering just now why Su Jing would besiege and not attack.
Now that I know the reason, I can't help secretly delighting.
Su Jing's arrogance just gave him a chance to escape.
It's just that it's inconvenient for him to admit it at this moment, so as not to offend the childish Prince Highness.
"My Guo family has been keeping their own place for generations, building bridges and paving roads to help the neighbors nearby.
Your Highness has slandered Zhongliang without evidence, and it will chill the hearts of all the people in the world! "
Su Jing curled his lips, suppressing his anger and said: "Huang Tai and Bai Xiong have both pleaded guilty, how dare you make sophistry and confuse people here?!
Guo Cheng, I advise you to eat whatever you can and drink whatever you can in the next few days.
After five days, Zhao Quan's relatives will arrive in Yangzhou, and I will definitely ask your Guo family to be buried with you! "
After all, Su Jing didn't say any more.
Caressing the pony's neck, turning the horse's head, turned and walked towards the dark night.
Now that the layout has been completed, it is useless for the thief to stay in Yangzhou City if he just waits for him to throw himself into the trap.
What's more, the court ladies and eunuchs who presumably have been waiting for a long time to coax the eldest grandson empress today.
If you go home too late, the falling board will definitely be a little heavier.
"Your Highness, now half of the officials in Yangzhou Prefecture have been implicated in this matter.
If Guo Cheng is allowed to ask for help again, the ending may be unpredictable! "
At this moment, Xu Jingzong plucked up his courage and stepped forward to persuade him.
Su Jing was slightly taken aback, then frowned and said, "Old Xu, you never received Guo Cheng's filial money, did you?
Ben Gong heard that he would send people to Chang'an to deliver money every year. "
"Ugh!
The minister was just worried that the matter would be too involved, and the courtiers would be afraid of impeachment by hundreds of officials.
If His Royal Highness wants to find out the truth, why bother to intimidate the humble minister. "
Xu Jingzong shook his head pretending to be bitter.
Su Jing sneered disdainfully, and said firmly: "I can conclude at this moment that you must have accepted Zhang Liang's benefits!
If not.
With your Xu Jingzong's temperament of protecting oneself, how could you speak out to persuade me at this time.
Tell me, how much did you charge? "
"Your Highness is wise.
The minister's careful thoughts really cannot be hidden from His Highness. "
Xu Jingzong patted his ass skillfully, and said calmly with a smile: "However, my official position is low, and I can't talk about it on weekdays, so naturally Zhang Liang won't give me much favor.
In the past three years, if I do the math, there are about [-] guns. "
"Hehe~
Do you think more than three thousand guns are too little?
Old Xu, you have a big heart! "
Su Jing joked in satisfaction.
Touching his chin and thinking carefully, he frowned and said: "You want to remind me that most of the ministers in the court and China are related to this matter.
If the palace orders a thorough investigation, it will definitely make the minister feel uneasy.
When the time comes, once the persecution is excessive, the situation between the DPRK and China will inevitably change? "
"Your Highness is wise, even a humble minister can't match him!"
Xu Jingzong bowed his hands and did not say much.
Seeing this, Su Jing smiled, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a person who doesn't understand the world.
Bengong naturally understands the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.
But you have to remember, if you are greedy for some money, I can turn a blind eye to it.
But if you dare to bully Liangshan and have evil intentions, don't blame me for not thinking about your past friendship! "
Xu Jingzong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, raised his head and said seriously: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have made a note of it!"
"Go!
Informing your friends in Beijing and China of this matter earlier can also reassure the hearts of the world.
Now that the palace and the queen mother are not in the capital, I am really worried that Xiao Xiao will make trouble. "
Su Jing waved his hand, and said with a slightly tired wave.
Xu Jingzong bowed his hands and rode away straight away.
Now that he is an official of the East Palace, he has received more favors from Su Jing.
In the eyes of the world and all officials, he has long been Su Jing's confidant and important minister.
If something happened to Su Jing, he would definitely not be able to get half of the benefits.
If another crown prince takes the position, one can imagine the fate of an old official like him.
What's more, Su Jing once promised him the position of Zuo Cheng. For him who has no resentment, this is already the ultimate human minister.
