Northern Song Dynasty gangster: Start the game with a dog's head, and Mr. Bao spares his life

The silk and bamboo are melodious, the lights are feasting, and everywhere you look, there are flattering smiling faces.

Cao Bin looked around and asked with some doubts, "Why didn't you see Mr. Chang?"

The magistrate of Jeju hurriedly explained:

"There are more and more disaster victims gathered in Jeju City. Mr. Chang is a little worried and has already dispatched troops."

"He has already told us to accompany Uncle Cao..."

After listening to his explanation, Cao Bin nodded and didn't say anything, just thoughtful.

At this time, a gentry came forward with a wine glass and said: "I have always admired Uncle Cao very much, and I would like to offer you a glass in late life."

Next, people kept coming to toast Cao Bin.

After the toast, they all expressed that they had gifts, which made Cao Bin smile.

"Who is that?"

After paying respects, Cao Bin looked at the man sitting opposite him and asked.

The man looked like he was in his 30s, he ignored Cao Bin's eyes, and poured himself a drink with a cold face.

It seems that among the people present, only he did not toast to himself.

"Could it be that this is an upright official?"

Seeing this, Cao Bin thought to himself, he could not help admiring him.

Hearing Cao Bin's words, the magistrate of Jeju was embarrassed. He wiped his sweat and said:

"This is the Patriarch of the Wu family, he may feel a little unwell today..."

As he was speaking, Xia Laodao came quietly behind Cao Bin and whispered:

"This man's youngest daughter is Chang Feng's concubine."

"It is he who wants to sell the moldy grain to the officials!"

When Cao Bin heard this, his face suddenly turned cold, and he snorted and said:

"So it's Mr. Chang's father-in-law, no wonder he doesn't like me."

When the Patriarch of the Wu family heard the words, his complexion suddenly changed, and he stood up abruptly and said:

"What does Uncle mean, you want to provoke me and Mr. Chang."

However, Cao Bin had already turned away, started talking to Fat Zhizhou, and ignored him at all.

The Patriarch of the Wu family suddenly lost all face, and said with a livid "hum":

"I'm full, let me take my leave."

Fat Zhizhou looked at Cao Bin with some embarrassment and said, "For Lord Chang's sake, please don't argue with him, uncle."

Others also tried to persuade them one after another, but they couldn't stop laughing in their hearts.

The Patriarch of the Wu family still thinks that he is an individual. If it wasn't for Chang Feng's relationship, how could he be allowed to sit opposite Cao Bin?

Isn't this ignorance?

It's also a loss of Mr. Chang's face.

After the banquet was over, it was already midnight, and Cao Bin had just returned home when Shi Qian came forward to report:

"Uncle, I have already found out that the Wu family has ten thousand grains of mold."

"After being rejected by us, he colluded with the Jeju government to pass the sentence and exchanged the relief food."

"The relief porridge that will be distributed outside the city tomorrow will be mixed with this moldy food!"

Cao Bin said with a cold light in his eyes, "He wanted to die by himself, so don't blame me for being cruel."

Everyone knows that moldy grain cannot be eaten.

From being poisoned and having diarrhea, to being killed on the spot, the Wu family actually took such a risk for the benefit of several thousand taels of silver.

This can no longer be described as vicious, it is insane!

It's okay not to be discovered, but once the disaster victims find out, it may immediately cause a civil uprising.

At that time, not only Shandong officials will not be able to escape, but even Cao Bin will not be able to escape the fate of being decapitated.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if he was lucky enough to hide the disaster from the victims, he still couldn't hide it from Bao Zheng in Tokyo. Cao Bin didn't dare to underestimate his insight.

Why did Yan Chasan suddenly join this disaster relief? Still can't trust Cao Bin?Been staring at him all the time!

The next day, Cao Bin got up just as the sky was getting dim.

It was the first time for Cao Bin to wake up so early since he moved to Xingyuan, the imperial envoy.

Chang Qinglian was very uncomfortable, she rubbed her hazy eyes, stood up quickly and asked:

"Is uncle going to wake up?"

As he said that, he got up to serve and dress.

Cao Bin gently pushed her down, smiled and said:

"I can't sleep anymore, I'll just walk around in the yard, you don't have to work hard, just sleep a little longer."

There was a hint of hesitation on Chang Qinglian's beautiful face.

Cao Bin immediately said with a tiger's face, "Be obedient!"

Chang Qinglian saw Cao Bin quickly put on his clothes, and then gently closed the door after going out, a warmth flashed in his eyes, and he closed them gently.

As soon as he left the yard, Cao Bin's face turned cold. Seeing that the three people in the sedan chair and the commander of the Tiger Wing Army had already led people to wait outside the door, he waved and said:

"Lao Xia and the sedan chair followed me out of the city, while Commander Zhao followed Shi Qian to ransack the house."

During this business trip to Shandong, a total of 500 people were brought along to listen to the tune.

Lu Fang and Jiang Ping bought grain and took away 500 people, Yan Chasan took another 500 people, and Cao Bin had 500 people guarding the granary and the imperial envoy.

Hearing Cao Bin's order, the [-] imperial troops dispatched were immediately divided into two teams and rushed out.

The sound of heavy running suddenly resounded on the silent street.

Seeing this situation, the people who got up early hid back home, closed the door tightly, and shivered in fear.

"Isn't this about mutiny and murder?"

Two quarters of an hour later, Cao Bin had already led his people to the South City Gate.

Seeing hundreds of well-armed soldiers approaching, the city guard also panicked, stepped forward and shouted:

"Who are you? Why are you traveling in the city?"

The sedan chair hurried forward, raised the dental plaque in its hand and said, "My lord imperial envoy is here, quickly open the city gate!"

The city guard hurriedly said: "Do you have any orders from Lord Chang? If there is no order from Lord Chang, we cannot let the arrow go."

When the sedan chair heard the words, its eyes widened with anger, and it slapped it:

"Fuck your mother, the Imperial Envoy needs a warrant from the surname Chang?"

The city guard was slapped around three times on the spot by him, and when he stopped, circles appeared in his pupils, with a bewildered expression on his face.

The sedan chair shook the halberd in its hand and shouted angrily, "If you hesitate any longer, I'll kill you!"

Seeing this, the city guard trembled in fright, covered his face and said:

"Open the door, open the city gate quickly!"

With an order, the city gate opened immediately.

At this time, smoke was already rising from the kitchen outside the city, and countless large pots had been set up, cooking thick porridge.

The black disaster victims are waiting in countless columns, and many soldiers are maintaining order around the columns.

Cao Bin came to the cauldron, shook a spoonful of thick porridge and tasted it, and a musty smell immediately rushed to his throat.

It would be strange if this could not be found!Thanks to myself for coming in time.

"Uncle Cao, what is this?"

The magistrate of Juye asked very strangely when he saw Cao Bin appearing at the relief site with a team of imperial troops.

Cao Bin nodded calmly and said, "Where is the Jeju Tongjue now?"

The general judge is the deputy of the magistrate, and his salary is lower than that of the magistrate, but the affairs of the state government need to be signed by both the magistrate and the general judge before they can take effect, which shows the power of the general judge.

The magistrate of Juye County didn't think too much when he heard Cao Bin's question, and quickly said:

"Master Tongpan is instructing the yamen servants to distribute food, and the next official is going to call him over?"

Cao Bin nodded and said, "Be fast."

Hearing this, the magistrate of Juye immediately handed over the affairs in hand to his subordinate magistrate, and ran over in a hurry.

After a while, Jeju Tongjuan walked over panting. He looked at the imperial guards beside Cao Bin suspiciously, and asked in puzzlement:

"What does Uncle Cao want from me?"

Cao Bin didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he waved directly: "Take it!"

Jeju Tongjuan suddenly struggled and shouted, "Uncle, why?"

Cao Bin said with a cold face: "I want to borrow your head, I hope you will not be stingy!"

Jeju Tongju turned pale with fright, and quickly said: "Uncle, please forgive me, I am Master Chang's disciple, we are our own people."

Cao Bin turned to look at the victims who were queuing up and said:

"Have you ever thought about it, if they find that the food you distribute is moldy, will they let you go?"

Jeju Tongju forced a smile and said, "There are [-] soldiers on guard, and they don't dare to make trouble."

Cao Bin shook his head and ignored him.

Seeing that Cao Bin seemed to be coming for real, the Jeju General Judge panicked and said quickly:

"I am an official from the fifth-rank court, uncle has no right to kill me!"

What he said was indeed true. Strictly speaking, Cao Bin could only be called an imperial envoy, and only had the right to supervise and investigate local officials.

It cannot be regarded as a real imperial envoy.

It's just that Cao Bin didn't intend to take on this responsibility himself...

At this time, the imperial guards who went to raid the house also arrived with the Wu family.

Shi Qian went forward and reported: "I tell my uncle that the 16 members of the Wu family, including young and old, have all been escorted."

Cao Bin nodded and said, "Let's ring the gong!"

Shi Qian quickly took out a gong and struck it vigorously, all eyes were on Cao Bin.

He found a mound and stood on it, and shouted very succinctly:

"I am the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court to supervise food!"

He falsely said that he was an imperial envoy in order to attract the attention of the victims and make them believe in him more.

But the victims were very numb and indifferent, looking at him with confusion.

"I declare that the open food is open today, and everyone can eat whatever they want, and they can eat all they want!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the faces of the victims became alive, and then, there was an overwhelming cheer.

"Thank you, my lord..."

"Blue sky..."

One spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and in a short while, all the victims heard this exciting news.

How many days have they not had enough to eat?

Half a catty of grain per day, not to mention being full, is good enough to sustain life.

Looking at their skinny appearance, as long as they catch a little cold, they may die.

Cao Bin was finally relieved when he saw that the emotions of the victims were rising.

He first broke out a piece of good news, just to prevent people from fluctuating and causing unpredictable consequences.
