Chapter 149 Kill Jiang Qingzhi First
Jiang Qingzhi's base was in the north of the city.
This was originally the residence of a wealthy merchant.
"That wealthy merchant was smuggling in the grasslands. Later, somehow, his family was massacred overnight while visiting relatives, and this house became empty."
Sun Bu Tong is good at finding out information.
"Don't be so flattering." Jiang Qingzhi felt a little flattered by Sun Bu Tong's flattering smile.
"I'm used to it." Sun Bu Tong tried to keep a cold face.
But when those scowls were furrowed like that, they actually looked like... Baldy Qiang?
Tsk!
"You still look the same as before!"
Sun Bu Tong was overjoyed and immediately returned to his fawning attitude.
"My Lord, Sun Huan, the prefect of Taiyuan, wants to see you."
Sun Huan looked like the old man next door, and was small in stature. When he saw Jiang Qingzhi, he started to nag about how it was not easy to be an official in Taiyuan. Liao Jiang, the Marquis of Nancheng, came to Taiyuan, but not only did he fail to suppress the White Lotus Sect, but he was assassinated, which caused an uproar in the city...
"Although the White Lotus Sect has retreated into the dark, the barking dog never bites. I feel that a storm is about to come to Taiyuan City!"
The old man left.
"Sun Huan's idea is that if you are not sure, you should stay in Taiyuan for a while and then return to Beijing. Don't make things bloody and bring trouble to him."
Hu Zongxian said: "I have heard of this man before. He is very stubborn. I guess the court allowed him to come to Taiyuan to serve as an official because they saw his stubbornness."
"If a governor who is good at dealing with people comes to Jin, the court will have to worry about the Ning Wang incident happening again." Jiang Qingzhi knew this very well.
Prince Ning's rebellion in Jiangxi was directly related to the incompetence and corruption of local officials.
Saint Wang slapped Prince Ning to death, which made Emperor Zhengde very regretful. From then on, the court was more vigilant against the various vassal states, and one could get a glimpse of this from the appointment of officials to their fiefdoms.
Silent all night.
Early in the morning, Jiang Qingzhi woke up and recalled the dream he had last night.
The woman in the dream seemed familiar.
Jiang Qingzhi thought blankly.
"Master!"
Sun Chonglou is outside the door.
"Is it her?" Jiang Qingzhi thought of the girl he met when he entered the city, her name was Zhu Yi.
After the exercise was completed, Hu Zongxian appeared.
"Old Hu, come, I'll practice with you." Sun Chonglou said carelessly.
Last time, Hu Zongxian suddenly became interested in learning martial arts, so he practiced with Sun Chonglou and was nearly beheaded. From then on, he refused to pick up a sword or a gun again.
"No, you practice on your own." Hu Zongxian avoided him, "My Lord, today we should go visit Liao Jiang, and also go to pay respects to the King of Jin."
Jiang Qingzhi thought for a moment and said, "Liao Jiang's intentions are ulterior. Let's go see King Jin first."
"That's fine." Hu Zongxian said, "It's okay to ignore Liao Jiang for a few days."
"Old Hu, you have become a bad person." Jiang Qingzhi pointed at him.
At this moment, Liao Jiang must be waiting for Jiang Qingzhi to visit him, in order to test Jiang Qingzhi's attitude and the court's opinion of him.
As long as Jiang Qingzhi is not gone, Liao Jiang will feel uneasy.
Hu Zongxian smiled, looking somewhat nonchalant, "He wants to have a guaranteed income, but he doesn't know that it's not easy to take advantage of the uncle. If he's not careful, he might break all his teeth."
"Uncle."
Sun Bu Tong came over, "Liao Jiang is here."
What the hell!
Hu Zongxian was also dumbfounded, "How could this person be so shameless?"
As a marquis and a predecessor, you, Liao Jiang, were stabbed and injured. You should just lie down. It is Jiang Qingzhi who should visit you.
But Liao Jiang did not play by the rules and actually took the initiative to ask for a meeting.
This disrupted Jiang Qingzhi's plans.
"This person is quite interesting." Jiang Qingzhi said, "Please invite him."
"Hahahaha!"
Before anyone arrives, the hearty laughter can be heard.
Jiang Qingzhi said to Sun Chonglou: "Do you remember what I told you?"
Sun Chonglou said: "Make up for what you lack. A hearty smile is a lack of heartiness, which is petty."
The tall Liao Jiang came in and bowed, "Chang Wei Bo, I have heard of your great name for a long time, but I have never had the chance to meet you. Today is my chance, what a chance!"
"Marquis of Nancheng." Jiang Qingzhi smiled and bowed.
Such a young man with red lips and white teeth is actually the Chang Wei Bo who has caused Yan Party so many headaches?
Moreover, could it be that Datong’s two consecutive victories were the work of this pale-faced young man?
Liao Jiang, who had studied military tactics diligently since he was a teenager, suddenly felt jealous.
Why?
It must be that Your Majesty gave him elite soldiers and generals!
He even gave generals to assist him.
Otherwise, how can a scholar have the ability to lead an army?
Liao Jiang felt that he had found the reason for Jiang Qingzhi's rise, and he couldn't help but feel contempt for him.
But everything still has to be done according to what has been discussed with Chen Can.
"Chang Wei Bo, the White Lotus Sect in Taiyuan Prefecture is rampant, and I was almost assassinated. But I did find some clues..."
Liao Jiang stared at Jiang Qingzhi and didn't even look at the tea brought by the guards.
This man is rude... Although Sun Chonglou is honest and straightforward, he has a sharp intuition and feels that Liao Jiang has bad intentions.
Hu Zongxian suddenly laughed, "If that's the case, why don't you do it, Lord?"
Hu Zongxian knew that it was not easy for Jiang Qingzhi to fall out with Liao Jiang, so it was time for his aide to step in.
Liao Jiang was making a condition: You come, I'll help you. But the credit must be shared equally, so that I can get a bigger share. Otherwise, don't blame me for making things difficult for you.
Liao Jiang didn't even look at Hu Zongxian, but just stared at Jiang Qingzhi.
"I heard that Chang Wei Bo has many rivals in the capital?"
Liao Jiang threw out his chips again.
You, Jiang Qingzhi, have enemies everywhere. Do you dare to add another opponent?
If you compromise, I will join forces with you!
Otherwise, I will be your enemy!
Which one do you choose?
——My Lord, don't hesitate. You must intimidate when you meet. Otherwise, once Jiang Qingzhi recovers, he will definitely fool you. This was Chen Can's analysis at the beginning, and Liao Jiang agreed with it.
Jiang Qingzhi pointed at Hu Zongxian and said, "Old Hu, my staff member."
"I am Hu Zongxian." Hu Zongxian bowed.
Liao Jiang nodded reluctantly.
"I don't know where you got the nerve to ask for a share of the credit." Seeing Liao Jiang's expression change, Jiang Qingzhi sneered, "The Ming nobles are good at nothing else but grabbing credit."
"Chang Wei Bo, don't forget, this is Taiyuan, not the capital!" Liao Jiang said with a gloomy face.
There is no emperor to support you here.
"Many people say that harmony is the most important thing. Those who don't know this truth will inevitably run into obstacles everywhere. But I am the kind of person who just doesn't believe in it." "What do you want to do?" Liao Jiang didn't expect Jiang Qingzhi to dare to reject him, and his face turned cold.
"roll!"
Liao Jiang stood up suddenly, "Jiang Qingzhi, I will wait and see what happens to you."
"You bastard!" Sun Chonglou was furious. If Dou Jialan hadn't stopped him, he would have drawn his sword and killed this bastard who dared to roar at his young master.
"What are you going to do?"
The guard who followed Liao Jiang stood up, put his hand on the hilt of the knife, and looked at Sun Chonglou.
Liao Jiang turned around.
Look at Jiang Qingzhi.
He said coldly: "This is the first time that I have been humiliated like this. I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge for this."
A single word of "get out" and the enmity is established.
Liao Jiang felt humiliated and said grimly, "Do you dare to let your guards compete with my guards?"
The guard came outside to report something, but was blocked outside.
The person who came was Zhu Yi. As the cousin trusted by Prince Jin, Zhu Yi was responsible for many things that were difficult for Prince Jin to handle.
In the courtyard, she heard Jiang Qingzhi say, "I have no interest in beating dogs, but if the dog shows its teeth to me, I won't mind knocking out its teeth. Stone, life or death!"
"Kill him!" Liao Jiang stepped back a few steps and sneered, "Liao Fan once went to the border wall to train and killed countless people in the past ten years. How can a young guard like you compete with him? Today, I will make you, Jiang Qingzhi, lose face!"
Countless people have been killed in the past ten years... Zhu Yi couldn't help but worry about the young noble. She couldn't see what was going on inside, but only heard the sound of a sword being drawn, as fast as the flash of a lightning blade.
Then, there was a scream.
Who died?
Zhu Yi wanted to step back, but saw Liao Jiang suddenly turn around.
That face was as dark as if he were dead!
In the lobby, a man fell not far in front of Jiang Qingzhi, his head fell to the side, and blood continued to flow out from his neck.
A young man stood beside Jiang Qingzhi holding a long knife.
Blood was still dripping from the tip of the knife.
On the main seat, the young nobleman whom she had met that day shook off the ashes from his cigarette and glanced at her.
"coming?"
Zhu Yi said subconsciously: "Here it comes."
The two of them changed places, and Zhu Yi finally came to his senses from the shock.
"vomit!"
The smell of blood seemed to linger in his mind, and Zhu Yi couldn't help but squat down and vomit.
Someone handed her a handkerchief. Zhu Yi took it, looked up and said with tears in her eyes, "His Highness wants to see you."
Jiang Qingzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, just wipe it first."
How embarrassing... Zhu Yi felt embarrassed and said, "Let's go now!"
"Alright."
Jiang Qingzhi changed his clothes, Zhu Yi also washed up, and then went out.
More than ten horses came galloping.
The leader was actually Chen Bao.
"Uncle!"
Chen Bao looked solemn.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Qingzhi was standing beside the carriage, trying to figure out the reason why Prince Jin sent someone to invite him first.
Chen Bao dismounted and took a look at the carriage.
"Uncle, someone is dead."
"what?"
Chen Bao looked grim, "Our brothers went out to buy groceries, and for some reason a conflict broke out, and five people from the other side died."
Jiang Qingzhi felt a chill in his heart.
The curtain of the car was opened, and Zhu Yi, with a pale face, said softly: "Is it troublesome? Do you need help?"
She saw Jiang Qingzhi shaking his head slightly and thought to herself, this man is so cold and indifferent, isn't he afraid of causing unrest in Taiyuan City?
There was a sudden laugh from the front.
"It's Liao Jiang!"
Sun Chonglou cursed: "You bastard!"
Liao Jiang seemed to have heard the news. He pointed at Jiang Qingzhi and said proudly, "I'll see how long you can be so arrogant!"
Sun Chonglou suddenly pointed behind him. "There's an assassin!"
Liao Jiang subconsciously rode his horse and fled.
"Hahahaha!" Jiang Qingzhi's guards couldn't help but laugh.
"You bastard!" Liao Jiang cursed when he realized he had been tricked. "Wait a minute, I'll send someone to the capital to tell them that Huben Zuowei has caused trouble. I'm going to make Jiang Qingzhi extremely anxious!"
……
Outside the market in Taiyuan city.
Countless people were gathered around, and someone in the middle could be heard crying, "My son! You died so tragically!"
When Jiang Qingzhi arrived, the onlookers silently made way for him.
There was something disturbing in those eyes.
Shanxi was once the base camp of the White Lotus Sect, and Jiang Qingzhi came to Taiyuan with the mission of suppressing the White Lotus Sect, which naturally aroused hostility.
He walked down the passage.
Five bodies lay among the crowd.
More than ten people knelt there, some crying, some glaring at the three soldiers who were somewhat at a loss.
"Long Wilbur is here!"
Someone shouted, and immediately more than ten people stood up.
"Kill for life!"
someone in the crowd shouted.
The atmosphere is tense.
In a restaurant not far away, the window on the second floor was open, and Wang Meng and Qin Jin stood side by side.
"Once there's a commotion, let them take action."
"Kill Jiang Qingzhi first!"
……
