Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

It's just a fast horse, how dare it surround the general of the third rank of the imperial court.

Yang Ji said angrily: "Where are you from Ma Kuai, how dare you be rude to this general."

Ma Fang sneered and said: "I am Ma Fang, the head of the horse fast arrester in Guangwu County. The four of you murdered Yang San, the owner of the inn, in Banqiao Town, Guangwu County. By order of the county magistrate, come here arrest."

Yang Ji was surprised that the innkeeper didn't wake up in the morning, so he was dead.

"Boldly, we did stay at the inn for one night. But if you say we murdered our money, don't you have no brains."

Li Yong said angrily.

They are the champion generals of the third rank of the imperial court, how could they kill the boss of the countryside.

You can know this kind of thing if you think about it.

Ma Fang sneered and said, "Hmph, there were only the four of you staying at the inn that day, and no one else. Who would you be if it wasn't you? You may be wearing military uniforms, and you will be more guilty."

Yang Ji was furious, and cursed: "A Ma Kuai, who is not in the ranks, dares to be so presumptuous. Take it for me!"

Li Yong and He Peng drew their swords and killed them immediately. The two were generals on the battlefield, and these horses were almost irresistible.

"Bold, we are Ma Kuai from the government, you dare to resist arrest."

Ma Fang cursed and drew his sword to fight at the gate of Liangzhou city.

"Knowing that you are Ma Kuai, how dare you be rude to this general!"

Yang Ji cursed.

A mere horse is fast, threatening the third-rank general, and there is nothing to say if he is killed.

The people at the gate of the city were taken aback, and unexpectedly they started fighting suddenly.

On one side is Ma Kuai, on the other side is a warrior on the battlefield, and blood will soon be seen.

The soldiers at the gate of Liangzhou City saw the fighting below and immediately reported to the prefect.

The soldiers went down and surrounded the people on both sides.

Lieutenant Zhang Lie of Liangzhou led his troops out of the city and shouted: "Stop, if you don't stop, you will be killed!"

Hundreds of sergeants surrounded them, and the two sides stopped fighting.

Zhang Lie recognized the attire on both sides, they were both members of the imperial court.

Why did they kill at the door.

"what happened?"

Zhang Lie asked.

Ma Fang said: "Lieutenant Zhang, I came here from Guangwu County. These four pretended to be court sergeants and filed a life-threatening lawsuit in Banqiao Town. They dared to resist arrest. Please, Captain Zhang, uphold justice."

Liangzhou is located in Hexi, and often fought with Turkic, Tuyuhun and other tribes, so there are also garrisons.

This Zhang Lie is a school lieutenant, he knows what a soldier looks like.

The four of Yang Ji really looked like soldiers, not fakes.

Zhang Lie stepped forward to salute: "Where are the four brothers from? Is what Ma Tutou said true?"

A mere school captain, Yang Ji didn't want to talk to him.

Li Yong, his entourage, said: "This Ma Kuai is talking nonsense. My general is the current third-rank champion general appointed by the Holy Majesty, and he will go to Ganzhou to take up his post."

Zhang Lie felt strange, why did the general of the third rank only take three followers with him?

This is unreasonable.

"It turned out to be the champion general, with a humble job and poor eyesight."

"It's just that the horse catcher said that you are involved in a life-and-death lawsuit in Guangwu, and the humble officials dare not not investigate."

"Can I borrow the appointment document?"

Zhang Lie also suspected that they were counterfeit.

It doesn't make sense for a general of the third rank to be stationed in such a dangerous place as Ganzhou.

In fact, this is also where Li Shimin is helpless.

Because Yang Ji is a child of a poor family, he can't get a good job, so he can only make meritorious service in Ganzhou.

As for the lack of entourage, it was because Yang Ji didn't want to make it public.

These have become suspicious points in Zhang Lie's eyes.

"Bold, the Royal Letter written by the Holy Majesty, you dare to borrow it from a sixth-rank captain!"

Li Yong scolded.

Zhang Lie was not sure if it was true, so he hesitated to make a move.

At this time, the prefect of Liangzhou City came out on horseback.

The prefect separated the crowd and asked Zhang Lie what was going on.

When Zhang Lie said it, the eunuch was shocked, and said: "Damn the lowly position, the subordinates are ignorant, the general is not to blame."

"Yesterday, I heard that General Yang is going to Ganzhou to take up his post. I have been waiting for him in a humble position, and I don't want to meet him here."

"Please speak to the general's mansion."

The prefect has more contacts and information network, and he always inquires about the news of the court.

The prefect knew about Yang Ji's appointment.

I probably know what it looks like.

"The prefect is too polite."

Yang Ji led people into Liangzhou City.

Captain Zhang Lie was so frightened that he was sweating profusely.

Just now he was rude to the great general appointed by the Holy Majesty, now it's difficult.

"Captain Zhang, what about us?"

Ma Fangsha competed, and actually fought with the third-rank general.

"You still dare to ask me, the captain is dragged down by you."

He was taken into the pit by this Ma Fang.

Zhang Lie asked soldiers to guard the city gate, and the prefect must be punished.

"Lieutenant Zhang, I can't deal with this matter. We have to go back to Guangwu County and report to Lord Magistrate Ming."

Ma Fang said.

Lieutenant Zhang Lie grabbed the reins of the horse and said with a sneer, "Ma Fang, you have caused a catastrophe and you want to run when you turn around? Come with me to see the prefect."

They left, and it was Zhang Lie who was punished.

Ma Fang had no choice but to follow Zhang Lie in.

Ma Kuai, who was behind him, asked in a low voice: "Boss, what should we do? If we offend the court general, we are doomed."

"It's the third grade, our county magistrate is only the sixth grade."

"I'm afraid it's just moving my head."

Ma Fang reprimanded: "What are you afraid of? It's useless to be afraid now."

"Nowadays, the Holy Majesty is strict with the law. If he really commits a murder case, the Emperor will not spare him."

That's right.

Li Shimin must have personally seen the murder case.

If Yang Ji really killed someone, Li Shimin would not spare him.

This is also the reason why Ma Fang dared to do it.

After entering Liangzhou Mansion, Yang Ji sat in the middle, and the prefect sat beside him.

Zhang Lie and Ma Fang stood under the hall.

After exchanging pleasantries, the prefect shouted, "Ma Fang, you, Ma Kuai from Guangwu County, dared to attack the court general, you are guilty!"

Ma Fang knelt down and pleaded guilty: "I would like to report to the prefect, the humble post is also handled according to the law."

"Two mornings ago, Yang San's mother-in-law and aunt in Banqiao Town went to the government to play drums to express their grievances."

"She said her husband, Yang San, was killed by four passers-by gangsters the night before."

"The villagers passing by at that time saw four people dressed as sergeants staying in the store, and left in a hurry the next morning."

"The county magistrate ordered us to hunt down the murderer. The humble job is just a errand, no offense intended."

These remarks also make sense.

The prefect is not flattering and breaking the law.

"General Yang, it's a matter of human life, and you are on your way to the post. If you don't understand this matter, I'm afraid it will damage the general's reputation."

The prefect smiled carefully.

Of course Yang Ji knew that a human life lawsuit was bigger than the sky.

Even if he doesn't make it clear, those ministers in the court will hold on to him.

Especially the aristocratic family, they are very jealous of Yang Ji's official position of the third rank.

"What the prefect said is that there is no reason for a life lawsuit to be made clear."

Yang Ji said.

"Captain Ma, let me ask you. What evidence do you have for accusing General Ben of being the murderer? You can't just assume I'm the murderer if I stay in the hotel."

Ma Fang bowed: "General, that Yang San was beheaded by a saber, with a single knife."

"Coincidentally, he wore a piece of jade around his neck, which fell below his neck."

"The jade was chopped into pieces, so there must be marks on the edge of the knife."
