I'm really not the carpenter emperor

It's hard to catch up once, and the general manager is willing to listen.

He stepped forward and entangled the old farmer shamelessly, and even put his hand on the handle of the knife, threatening, "It doesn't matter if it's yours or not!"

"What's wrong with the dim sum shop in Beijing? I'm the general manager of Jizhou, so I won't give you any face?"

"One stone is not enough, now I want three stones, and I will pay it back in a month!"

"I want to see, what kind of dim sum shop in Beijing dares to suppress the officers and soldiers under the command of our Marshal Jizhou King?"

"If you dare, call him, I will wait here!"

"If you don't dare, honestly give me three stones of food, and this matter will be avoided today, otherwise, old man Huang, don't even think about staying in Jizhou any longer!"

"I have plenty of ways to deal with you people!"

The old farmer backed down again and again, but he didn't want to provoke the officers and soldiers. He didn't expect to make trouble like this, and he didn't bother to waste any more words.

He waved his whip, Niu Chitong took a step forward and ran forward.

The general was furious, and seven or eight officers and soldiers who commanded the gatekeepers chased after him. The old farmer flicked his whip desperately, but the bullock cart had just started and how could it run faster than others.

The bullock cart was overtaken by the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers were also in a hurry at this moment, waving knives and guns and staring at the surroundings, and the general came over triumphantly.

This time, it finally attracted the attention of other pedestrians near the city gate.

But most of the other people have nothing to do, they just watch the excitement around, who is not afraid of the officers and soldiers, if they fight against the officers and soldiers, they will not want to stay any longer.

The old farmer had no choice but to step forward and beg.

"It's my bad luck. I'll give you a stone of yellow rice. Is it okay for the head office?"

Unexpectedly, Bo Zong didn't even shake him, he laughed and said:

"It's too late!"

"If you give me a stone earlier, I'll be fine. You people, you just toast and don't eat fine wine, and you don't have to punish and punish. Now it's five stone!"

Chapter 527 What is the use of you?

"Ah, military lord, are you still telling me to live!" The old farmer was sweating profusely, and couldn't help but look at the people around him for help.

But wherever they looked, everyone shrank their necks, and no one dared to provoke officers and soldiers.

"Five stones are really too many, the little old man didn't lay down many last year, please reduce some, can't I kowtow to you all the time..."

Standing there, the general manager laughed loudly, with arrogance in his words.

"Kowtow to support a bird, the brothers also have to eat, just five shi, not a single grain of rice!"

As time passed, the sun has moved to the west.

Seeing that he would not be able to be sent to the capital today, the old farmer was so anxious that he burst into tears, kowtowed and prayed with his palms together, looking extremely pitiful.

There are more and more people onlookers, standing there on several floors to watch the fun, some joking, most of them shouting and cursing at the edge, but no one is willing to step forward alone.

Standing there with the boss on his hips, squinting his eyes and saying:

"Old man Huang, it's five stones now. If you don't want to give it, maybe it will be ten stones after I say this. I'll ask you one last time, will you give it?"

"Here, I'll give..."

The old farmer lowered his head and said the result that the officers and soldiers hoped for.

At the same time, a horse neighed in the distance.

Several tall horses approached quickly from the Jingji official road. A young man with short hair and neat armor reined in the reins, looked around, and got off the horse.

The crowd naturally knew that this master must have an unusual status, so they naturally gave way to him without saying too much.

Obviously, many people have high hopes for this seemingly extraordinary young man.

The visitor looked at the situation and knew that something had happened at the city gate, he frowned with his thick and black eyebrows and asked in a deep voice:

"What's going on, why are you stuck here?"

The old farmer looked at the man's clothes and saw that he was even accompanied by three or five cavalrymen. He was obviously a man with a different identity.

He hastily pointed at Mr. Ba, with a crying tone in his words:

"This man used his official status to pressure me and asked me to pay him five shi!"

"My lord, you have to be the master for Xiaomin. He even said that if you don't directly crush him to death, you will have to pay the rations!"

The young man tightened his eyebrows and asked around:

"Is this true?"

Some people around looked at it for a long time, but most of them dared not speak out. At this time, it seemed that someone was going to stand out, and they all shouted.

"That's it!"

"He didn't miss a single word!"

Immediately, in front of everyone, the young man strode forward to the gatekeeper, looked him up and down, sneered, and asked:

"I ask you, did you say all this?"

Mr. Ba also understood that this person's status might be unusual, but after all, this was on his own occasion, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and shout loudly:

"That's what the uncle said! It's none of your business!"

The visitor turned around silently without saying a word, and then suddenly pulled out the shiny wild goose-wing knife from his waist, and the blade slashed across the general's throat fiercely, causing blood to flow wildly.

The general fell down clutching his throat, with an expression of extreme horror and disbelief on his face, as did the officers and soldiers around him, and he didn't recover for a while.

Blood all over the place!

The onlookers turned pale with fright, the timid ones shook into sieves, and the bold ones widened their eyes, not knowing whether to applaud or not.

The nearby government servants and squires rushed over after hearing the news, and were stunned by this scene.

The old farmer didn't expect that this person would directly kill the officers and soldiers. For a moment, his face was even paler than before, and he felt that he was about to face a catastrophe.

Among the crowd, the young man didn't care, quietly wiped the bloody goose-winged knife, turned back to the side of the mount, and said:

"It's him who wants to die, I'm just wishing for someone else's wish!"

But government officials and squires saw that people were killed, and the one who died was still the gatekeeper, who would not let the young and old farmers go.

This time, things got even bigger.

Not only alarmed the government and the squires, but also brought the general subordinates to Yousi, the head arrester, and even the official of the guard, clamoring to take him to court.

The old farmer was slumped on the bullock cart with a pale face, and his whole body was already shaking badly.

It's over, it's over.

There was a lot of clamor here to arrest people, and suddenly someone shouted.

"The officers and soldiers of the brigade are here!"

Sure enough, the cavalry took the lead, the sound of rumbling was getting closer and closer, and the sound of footsteps was also getting closer, but it was the Jizhou Army who was going to join forces in Datong and came back at this time.

But the leader was no longer Wang Bao, but Xu Jin, his lieutenant general.

In the town of Datong, the Jizhou Army's corrupt military discipline was ridiculed by the rest of the troops. Wang Bao was beheaded by Sun Chuanting, and Xu Jin had nowhere to vent his grievances.

Seeing this situation, how could he not take the opportunity to vent his anger.

When Xu Jin got off his horse and approached, the government servants were taking out ropes to bind the young man. Seeing that the officers and soldiers had returned, they all backed away.

The officer of the Weisuo called off the government servants and said something to Xu Jin, who was furious and drew his knife and stepped forward.

"Be good at killing officers and soldiers, cut this thief for me directly!"

"I see who dares to do it!"

The young man narrowed his eyes and did not speak. The one who spoke was the cavalry behind him. Seeing this, the cavalry immediately took out a golden scroll, held it up high, and shouted:

"The imperial order is to rectify Jizhou's armaments, and Zhang Shize, the son of the British prince, is here!"

"Xu Jin, the deputy commander-in-chief of Jizhou, and the secretary of the Zuotun Weiqian, don't be polite!"

Xu Jin's eyes widened all of a sudden, and the officers and soldiers around him also looked unbelievable.

The scribe officer quickly confirmed the sacred edict, but he was very straightforward. He rushed forward a few steps, knelt at Zhang Shize's feet, and kowtowed:

"The little official is not clear about the matter, so I specifically plead guilty!"

People from all walks of life who watched could not have imagined this situation, they were all dumbfounded, and some people even quietly booed.

Zhang Shize's voice seemed a little deep, but full of momentum, I don't know if he learned from his father or did it on purpose, there was always a majesty under the control of the townspeople in his words:

"This is an important place in Jifu, and Ji Town is the throat of the imperial city!"

"Officers and soldiers are running rampant like this, oppressing ordinary people at will. What's the use of you, the Zuotun Weiqian secretary? What's the use of you government servants?"

The clerk is the largest civil servant in Jizhou City, in charge of the Zuotun Weijun in Jizhou, and when he was reprimanded like this, he just nodded his head and looked ashamed.

Zhang Shize quietly glanced at the bewildered deputy commander Xu Jin, mounted his horse and looked around at the crowd, pointed at the old farmer, and shouted:

"Anyone who learns from that traitor, does evil, and oppresses the good just because he is an officer and soldier, this is an example, let him be killed!"

"Your Majesty sent me to Jizhou to suppress them!"

"Enter the city!"

After saying that, he rode his horse into the city, and the cavalry who came out of the capital with him also got on their horses one after another, and followed without saying a word to the General Military Mansion.

The official Qian Shu stood up, Xu Jin naturally couldn't say much, but the officials in the government below, as well as the guards in charge of patrolling, could talk more.

He was furious at these people and shouted: "You damn things, some people oppress the people and ask for food, why didn't you send someone to report it earlier?"

"I am in charge of Zuo Tunwei, and I can't spare you! There are still civil servants in this area, and they can be whipped thirty times as a warning to others!"

The people around the shuguan didn't care about the three sevens and twenty-one, they pressed the officers and civil servants to the ground and beat them. This was a real beating, and they kept wailing and begging for mercy.

This scene frightened the old farmer into a petrified state.

"What kind of official is this man in armor? Why is he so majestic that even the secretary is scared!"

Someone quietly reminded.

"Didn't you just say that that is Zhang Shize, the son of the Duke of England! Following the emperor's order, he came down to rectify Jizhou's military equipment!"

Who doesn't know the Duke of England, he is the well-deserved leader of honor!

The son of the Duke of England, that is to say, this is the future Duke of Great Britain!

The old farmer couldn't stop talking, he really met a nobleman today, and the people around him also discussed it, saying that those officers and soldiers who harmed others were finally taken seriously by the court.

Chapter 528 Take wine?take you!

Xu Jin no longer had the arrogance he had before, and before Zhang Shize asked any more, he poured out all the nasty things Wang Bao had done before.

Inside the General Military Mansion, on the seat that originally belonged to Wang Bao, another person was sitting now.

Zhang Shize, who grew up in the Duke's Mansion, has always been surrounded by a group of honorable children. He never knew that there were so many unsightly things at the feet of Emperor Jifu.

He suspected that Xu Jin was trying to evade, and deliberately exaggerated the matter, so that it could all be blamed on the dead Jizhou general soldier Wang Bao, his eyes moved slightly, and asked:

"What did you say?"

Xu Jin could tell that the young man didn't really believe what he said, but he already knew all about the court's intentions, and it was up to him whether he died or lived.

As for leading troops to rebel, he never thought about it, and even if he thought about it, he would never dare to do it.

So next, he said more inside information.

For example, how Wang Bao followed the former commander-in-chief Wang Wei from before, and was promoted all the way by virtue of the latter's military exploits, and how Wang Bao reorganized the Jizhou Army step by step according to his own ideas after he took over.

How did he abuse the power of the commander-in-chief, occupy the properties and houses of some common people, how did he cover up the servants who robbed the women's women in the street, how did he abuse those women who were robbed, and so on...

Zhang Shize clenched his fists in anger at these things, trembling all over.

He really didn't expect that a general soldier of the imperial court could be so bad. The most important thing is that he still holds a soldier in his hand, and ordinary people dare not resist at all.

Just like an old farmer at the city gate, an ordinary officer and soldier guarding the gate is like this. If the general who holds a heavy army is like this in the future, how should the court check and balance?

Xu Jin said again and again: "My lord, you must not tell others that I said it, I swore to Marshal Wang, these words, even Jin Yiwei who came a few days ago did not dare to say these words!"

Zhang Shize sneered, stared at him and said:

"Then how dare you tell me that I dare not deal with you?"
