Cui Shili.
This is the second room of the Cui family, and Master Cui is currently playing games happily with his pets.
However, a servant hurried over and interrupted his interest.
"Young master, it's broken, it's broken. The Xianbei people broke into the big house. The sky is filled with fire at the moment."
Cui Renshi was stunned and asked slowly: "Da Fang? What trouble has Da Fang caused again?"
The servant hurriedly said: "It's the newly arrived county captain. He led the Xianbei people to storm Wubao, the big house. At this moment, he has broken down the gate of the outer courtyard."
Master Cui suddenly burst into laughter at this moment.
"Didn't Cui Shuren always claim to be the eldest son of the eldest son, and talk about cultivating one's moral character and governing the world with philanthropy? How come the Xianbei people broke down the door??"
The servant was also shocked when he saw Cui Renshi's attitude, "Young master, we are from the same clan after all."
"Oh, what kind of fellow sect is he?! The family has been separated for a long time!!"
Cui Renshi was very excited, his face turned red, "Besides, what ability does their big house have? They were defeated in the battle and failed to stop the rebels. They lost the face of my Cui family!! Later, he only served as the governor and had no power."
Changjin! You also said it was a big house. I think it’s better to get rid of the house!!”
Seeing the excited Master Cui, the servant hesitated to speak.
Cui Renshi cursed like this for a long time, then calmed down and said angrily: "There is also Liu Taozi. When he was in Cheng'an, he seduced Fei Zongxian and implicated my eldest brother innocently. He can also do it
Lieutenant! I want to
He came here just to flatter and do some dirty things, and there are these Xianbei, hehe, I don’t know what he did to get them to follow him. I will definitely chop this guy into ten, no, twenty pieces.
, come to sacrifice my brother!!"
He suddenly became quiet and pondered for a long time. Suddenly, his eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.
"Cui An, come here."
The servant hurriedly stepped forward, and Cui Renshi lowered his voice, "If something like this happens in the main room, can Cui Jishu be able to sit still?"
"Well, I guess I can't sit still."
"Then send someone to inform him and ask him to go to the main room to persuade peace."
"Arrange another shooter, a sharpshooter, to shoot Liu Taozi to death when the two parties meet. If he is wearing heavy armor and can't shoot, then shoot Cui Jishu to death."
The servant trembled, "Young Master?! What are you doing?"
Cui Renshi glared at him, "Why are you panicking? Liu Taozi has regained Xianbei and his power has increased greatly. It will not be easy to kill him again in the future. This is the best opportunity. Besides, it can also be used to kill him."
My uncle will take the blame.
It would be better if those Xianbei people were angry and went to kill their uncle, because there would be no proof!! Hahaha~~ Of course, Liu Taozi has always been timid. If he was wearing armor and it was difficult to shoot him, then he would have shot Cui Jishu, the same thing.
of."
"Although Cui Jishu has been dismissed, it is only temporary. The temple will promote him sooner or later. If he dies during the confrontation with Liu Taozi, hehe."
The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Young master, Cui Gong is a great sage in the clan, with a first-class official position, how can you do this?"
"What do you know?! Is it his or my family who has the final say over this second house?!"
Cui Renshi sneered: "When my brother was in trouble, he could have opened his mouth to save him, but he was unmoved. Why? Isn't he just worried that my brother's reputation is so great that he will overwhelm his others in the future?
Stupid son?"
"You can do whatever you want."
"I have the final say at home now."
"only"
"Remember to do it cleanly and use trusted outsiders."
"only."
Cui Renshi waved his hand and ignored him. He just continued to lower his head and teased the hungry wolf lying in front of him. The wolf was skinny and bruised. It lay on the ground and twitched from time to time. Cui Renshi moved his hand to the beast.
He put it in his mouth and slapped his face proudly, his face becoming more and more excited.
"Mr. Cui!! Please go and take a look. The big house was broken into by the Xianbei people and burned, killed and looted."
The servant knelt in front of Cui Jishu and cried loudly.
Although Cui Jishu was born in the second room, he did not live in the second room of Uburg. His family said he was the second room, but in fact, he was not related to the second room. He could only be said to be a family member. Originally, he could only live in the outer courtyard of Ubao.
It was only later that Cui Jishu became prosperous and was valued by the second wife and enjoyed the same treatment as the first wife.
After becoming rich, Cui Jishu did not move to the two-room Wubao. He moved to a village outside the second-room house and built a house here. The house was quite satisfactory, not too big or too small. His children and relatives lived here.
at.
Cui Jishu is usually in Yecheng or Jinyang, and rarely comes back here.
When the slave cried loudly, Cui Jishu was shocked. He seemed to have just seen the fire in the distance and murmured: "Oh, I thought just now that the main house was flooded, but I didn't expect that this Xianbei man
Why would you attack the big house?"
The servant cried and explained: "Mr. Cui doesn't know. These Xianbei people have always been unscrupulous and unscrupulous in Anping. They burn, kill, and loot, and do all kinds of evil. The people inside and outside the city all hate what they do. However, the powerful people protect them and let the people
We are helpless!"
"There is a new commander named Liu Taozi. He colludes with these Xianbei people and leads them to massacre our Han people!! It is really a heinous crime!!"
Cui Jishu snorted and said angrily: "I didn't expect that there would be such a vicious thief in Anping!"
"Don't worry, I will write a letter to the temple right now to impeach them for their evil deeds!"
The slave in front kept nodding, but when Cui Jishu finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head.
Write a letter to the temple???
By the time the temple replied, the big house had been burned to ashes, right?
The old slave said in shock: "Mr. Cui, those people are still committing crimes. You have to stop them. You are a well-known sage in the world. I guess Liu Taozi will not dare to embarrass you. All you have to do is come forward."
Cui Jishu sighed and wiped his tears, "I no longer have an official position. I am just a commoner. How can I have any prestige? There are only four or five people around me. How can I stop the Xianbei people? By the way, my nephew
You can go and dissuade me!"
He immediately took the slave's hand and said earnestly: "Although we are a big family, we are from the same sect after all. How can we not save them in the face of death? I have to save them. Don't waste time.
Go back quickly and tell the teacher and let him take the people there!! If you delay for a while, you don’t know how many people will die! Go quickly! Go quickly!!”
He called his son and forcefully pushed the slave out.
The old slave stood at the door, glanced blankly at Cui Jishu's house, and then led everyone to leave quickly.
Cui Gang looked very impatient. He hurriedly put on his clothes and said, "Father, let me stop them!"
Cui Jishu glanced at him, his face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly.
Cui Jishu is usually very friendly to people and rarely makes enemies. Even when it comes to his children, he is relatively lenient in discipline and rarely reprimands.
This was the first time Cui Gang saw his father showing such an unhappy expression.
"Father."
Cui Jishu shook his head, "This brother of yours is not a good person. He seems to be honest and loyal, but in fact he is cunning and vicious. The reason why he has not become an official is because his father is worried that he will cause trouble to the clan, so he keeps him here.
Something went wrong in my home where I was studying hard, but he sent someone to urge me to go there. What kind of good intentions could he have? Maybe he wanted to harm people in some way!"
"You, although you have read a lot of books, but you can't use the principles in them for your own use, then what's the use of reading these books?"
Cui Gang was a little confused. He whispered: "Renshi, he does like to bully others, but he won't want to harm you. You are his elder after all."
"Oh."
Cui Jishu shook his head and said nothing more. He took out a book and started reading. He was not reading classics, but medical books. Cui Jishu liked reading medical books and treating people. Sometimes, he
He would simply go out on the street to treat people. Regardless of their status, he would treat them equally and would never treat them differently. Therefore, his reputation here is quite good.
Cui Gang watched his father become obsessed with medical books again, and asked helplessly: "Are we just going to let those Xianbei people do evil?"
"There's no rush. Once the matter comes to a conclusion, it won't be too late to come forward."
"Gang, let me tell you, any status, title, or reputation are all fake and have no effect in front of a knight holding a steel sword."
"ah!!!"
Cui Shuren looked at the open door in front of him and saw the rolling flames inside, and let out a sharp roar.
Magistrate Zheng and Cheng Zhe, who were standing on both sides of him, were also startled.
However, their expressions at the moment were not very good.
The entire Ron'enli was in a mess at the moment, with corpses of guards everywhere. Weeping and yelling could still be heard from inside. The fireworks were spreading all the way. Magistrate Zheng even saw fireworks rising in the deepest backyard.
cigarette.
Magistrate Zheng swallowed and his face became stiff.
He really didn't expect that this new county lieutenant would be so vicious. He was really slaughtered!
How long has it been? It’s less than an hour!
What kind of idiot is this person who is guarding Wu Fort? Facing a group of cavalry, he can't even defend for an hour?!
Something big is going to happen now.
Cui Shuren jumped off his horse at this moment, knelt on the ground, and cried loudly.
His cry was very loud, but he did not dare to rush out.
Soon, the Xianbei knights discovered these people outside. Dozens of cavalry suddenly rushed out, drawing the big bows in their hands, and surrounded them from three sides. The arrows were already in their hands and they could be fired at any time.
Cui Shuren was so frightened that he quickly stood up, stopped crying, and hid behind Magistrate Zheng.
Magistrate Zheng couldn't help sweating at this moment. He didn't dare to speak, for fear that these Xianbei people would really let go.
Cheng Zhe was better. He was not very scared and said loudly: "We are county officials and we are here to see Lieutenant Liu! Please go in and report!!"
The knights looked at each other, Cheng Zhe spoke again in Xianbei language, and then some knights rushed into Wu Bao.
After a long time, Liu Taozi rode a green lion and slowly appeared in front of everyone. On both sides of the green lion, there were human heads. He suddenly appeared in front of everyone, covered in blood, and transformed into evil again.
He looked like a ghost, staring directly at the people in front of him. This time, even Cheng Zhe felt afraid and did not dare to look at him.
Cui Shuren was so frightened that he couldn't even stand still, let alone go up to question him.
Magistrate Zheng took a deep breath and finally said, "Mr. Liu, what are you doing?"
"I asked you to forcibly requisition food, but I didn't ask you to lead troops and massacre the people."
Liu Taozi took out a large crossbow from behind and showed it to the county magistrate, "Hiding armor and a powerful crossbow with the intention of treason."
Magistrate Zheng immediately closed his mouth and looked at Cheng Zhe.
Cheng Zhe immediately stepped forward, came to Liu Taozi's side, and lowered his voice, "Brother Liu Gong, you did a great job!!"
He secretly glanced behind him again, "That old thief was quite arrogant just now, but now he's so scared by you that he doesn't even dare to look over."
He flattered a few words first, and then said: "You see, you were ordered by the county magistrate to collect military pay from the Cui family. The Cui family failed to pay you on time. We have reported this matter to the state. Well,
The Cui family is at fault, but you led troops to attack their home. This is a bit too much. Let your people come out and don't kill them again. The Cui family is not easy to mess with. There are two of them in the first rank alone.
There are countless others of other grades!”
"What you need now is food, right?"
"Look at this, I will come forward as a witness and ask the Cui family to bring out food. As for you, just collect your army, and then put away the crossbows and other things. There is no need, right?"
While Cheng Zhe was talking, Magistrate Zheng rubbed his forehead and looked at Cui Shuren aside.
"Mr. Cui, what do you think we should do now?"
Cui Shuren's lips were trembling and he didn't even dare to cry, let alone speak.
Magistrate Zheng said: "I think this man is fierce and difficult to deal with. If I don't say it right now, I'm afraid even we will be killed by him. What's more, you see, he also found a powerful crossbow. This is a big deal."
It’s dangerous. What kind of crime is hiding a powerful crossbow? You know, this is rebellion, and rebellion will lead to the death of the clan!"
"Look, it's better to find a way to suppress them first. I will be a witness. As for you, give them some food and they put away their crossbows. If you can suppress this matter, suppress it.
Let’s not spread the news first, what do you think?”
Cui Shuren nodded stiffly, "Send them away first, send them away first."
After a while, he saw Cheng Zhe leading Liu Taozi towards here. Cui Shuren subconsciously took a few steps back and hid further.
Cheng Zhe said with a smile: "Liu Gong agreed, agreed!"
Magistrate Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief, quickly dismounted, took Cui Shuren's hand, walked towards Liu Taozi, and said with a smile: "I have reached an agreement with Mr. Cui. Why don't you let the cavalry come out first?"
Liu Taozi shook her head, "We haven't agreed on the amount yet."
Cui Shuren raised his head and asked tremblingly: "How much do you want?"
"I want three million stones of food."
"What???"
At this moment, Cui Shuren only felt that he was hallucinating, "How much?"
"Three million stones."
Cui Shuren was about to curse. He looked at Magistrate Zheng with aggrieved eyes, "How can my family have so much food? Even if my family was plundered, they wouldn't be able to get three million dan!!"
But Liu Taozi was very calm, "If you don't have a house, don't you have second and third bedrooms? Just now Cheng Jun said that the second bedroom is the largest and the richest. Why don't you just let them get it together?"
"No, I can't find you. You don't want to settle the matter at all. You are"
Cui Shuren was so angry that he couldn't speak.
But at this moment, another burst of fire burst out, and the shouts of killing in Wu Bao gradually subsided.
Liu Taozi turned her head and glanced, then looked at Cui Shuren, "It's too late now for someone to come and capture the traitor Cui Shuren."
Immediately, a knight rushed out, dragged Cui Shuren over, pushed him to the ground, and began to tie him up.
Cui Shuren was shocked, "Help me! Help me!!"
Magistrate Zheng wanted to speak, but found that several knights' arrows were already aimed at him. He swallowed and said nothing.
The knights began to evacuate from Wu Bao in an orderly manner. They pulled out one cart after another, and the carts were full of money and food.
Neither the county magistrate nor Cheng Zhe dared to speak. At this moment, a team rushed towards the place very fast.
I saw the pedestrians getting faster and faster, kicking up billows of dust, and a moment later, they appeared here.
Governor Lu angrily rode his horse and rushed in front of the crowd, surrounded by dozens of knights to protect him.
Governor Lu looked at Cui Shuren who was tied up, and then at the burning Ron Enli behind them. At this moment, he only felt his scalp numb.
He whipped out his sword, "Liu Taozi!! Do you want to rebel?!"
Liu Taozi raised her head and looked at him, "The Cui family rebelled and hid armor and powerful crossbows."
Prefect Lu was furious, "Nonsense, it's clearly you who framed me! The Cui family has always been kind and upright, how could they rebel? It's all you. You led troops to rob people, burned innocent people, and framed them! Someone is here!"
!Capture the rebel Liu Taozi!!"
Just as the knights around him were about to move, they were surrounded by Liu Taozi's knights, and arrows were aimed at them.
Facing these cavalry, Governor Lu was not afraid at all. He laughed, then looked at Liu Taozi and patted his chest.
"Come on, come on, cum here!!"
"I want you to know what it means to shoot a prefect. No matter who is behind you, just shoot me?!"
"If I die here today, then your whole family will die together!"
"Come"
“Whoosh!!!”
An arrow flew past Prefect Lu's cheek, cutting a small gash on his face.
Governor Lu froze on the spot, still pointing at his chest and motionless.
He was stunned.
He really didn't expect that this man would really dare to shoot himself.
His whole body was stiff, his mind went blank, he couldn't even feel the pain, his whole body didn't obey commands, and he couldn't move.
Not only him, but everyone was stunned at this moment. Magistrate Zheng and Cheng Zhe were both dumbfounded. Even Cui Shuren, with his eyes widened at this moment, looked at Prefect Lu in disbelief.
This is really lawless!!!
Everyone looked at Liu Taozi, but found that he was not the one who made the move. Yao Xiong put away his bow and looked at Liu Taozi, "Mr. Liu!! I am not good at shooting and my mistake almost killed the prefect. Please kill him according to military law."
I!!"
Liu Taozi looked at everyone in front of him calmly and said to Yao Xiong:
"I'll spare you this time, but not next time."
Chapter completed!
