Chapter 141 Beifu Soldiers Trafficking Refugees

Jiankang City, Kuaiji Palace.

After hearing that Xu Zongwen was imprisoned by the Jiankang Order, King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji, who had been infected with the cold, suddenly felt better and the cold was more than half cured.

"Hahaha... That Xu Xiao is used to being arrogant. On the day of Xie An's birthday banquet, he dared to speak up for Huan Xuan, which made me lose face. I hate it very much. How about now? Retribution will come so soon, right?

?" Sima Daozi, the king of Kuaiji, sat on the soft couch, and the person next to him was Secretary Cheng Wang Guobao.

Wang Guobao agreed with a smile: "What the king said is true. Xu Xiao relied on his great military achievements, so he was arrogant and arrogant. Who is the Marquis of Xichang? He was the descendant of the Xun family in Yingchuan, and he still had royal blood flowing in his body. The late emperor and your majesty were against each other.

His grace is very great,

He was given numerous rewards and was granted the title of Marquis of Xichang. Xu Xiao, a rustic and vulgar person who had never seen the world, rashly offended the Marquis of Xichang and was sent to Jiankang Prison, it would be an advantage for him! If Heaven listens, Your Majesty will

It’s still unclear how severe the punishment will be!”

Sima Daozi nodded and became more and more proud: "I know, I know! Xu Xiao is going to fall into the hands of the Marquis of Xichang this time. Where is Guan Ju Tower? What does Xu Xiao want to do during the national mourning of the Empress Dowager? I don't know the seriousness of it.

, have you caused a big trouble? I really don’t know what Xu Xiao looks like in prison at this time, it must be extremely exciting!"

The Nong Zhi Nong Zhi spoken by King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji is a Wudian dialect, which means you are right.

Jiankang prison.

Jiankang ordered Wang Fu to kneel on the ground, with a gloomy look on his face. He kept begging: "General, all this is because the official has blind eyes and cannot see Mount Tai. It is because the official is blind that he mistakenly caught the general here."

In Jiankang Prison, I apologize to the general! I beg you, the general, not to remember the faults of villains, but to spare me this time!"

Xu Zongwen was sitting on the hut that Wang Fu had moved, his arms stretched back into the lining of his white coat, and he was groping for something while chewing a piece of five-flavored preserved meat with relish.

A group of government officials were kneeling around Xu Zongwen. Wang Fu led these people to arrest Xu Zongwen in Guanju Tower and take him to Jiankang Prison a few days ago.

When the chamberlain in the palace conveyed the emperor's oral order to release Xu Zongwen, everyone was dumbfounded. No one could believe that they had arrested a third-grade general who conquered the north and put him in Jiankang Prison!

It was obviously the middle of winter, but everyone was sweating profusely. Xu Zongwen looked calm, Jiankang Ling Wang Fu was shaking all over and sweating like rain. The government officials around him didn't even dare to raise their heads. In this extremely serious and subtle atmosphere

Suddenly, a scent of fragrance came from the air...

In front of the old man in the next cell, there was a large table of wine and food, such as roast chicken, drunken crab, fragrant tongue, salted fish and other dishes that were dazzling to see. Plus a jar of Sangluo wine, it was simply...

The royal meal is not an exaggeration!

This is the banquet Xu Zongwen spent two jewels on to buy for the jailer Chen Si. They were all delivered from the Taiping Tower. The shopkeeper was afraid that the aroma would be lost, so he did not dare to delay for a moment on the way, and it was delivered in less than half an hour.

Compared to the feast prepared for the old Taoist, Xu Zongwen ordered a bag of five-flavored pork. He did not dare to drink wine blatantly. After all, during the national mourning period, luckily he and Guo Shang went to Taiping Tower for a drink a few days ago without knowing it.

However, even though it was just a bag of preserved fruits, this was the first time that Xu Zongwen enjoyed the takeout service of the ancients in the Jin Dynasty.

"Good wine, good wine, boy, poor Taoist is enjoying a blessing today thanks to you, um -" Old Taoist grabbed a plump chicken drumstick full of aroma and stuffed it into his mouth, enjoying it with satisfaction!

Xu Zongwen looked sideways and responded with a smile: "Old man, as long as you like it, when you go out, I will treat you to Taipinglou to have good wine and delicious food for three days and three nights, how about it?"

The old man nodded desperately, stretched out his hand again, spotted a crab and immediately caught it, peeled it open and used it to accompany the wine.

The way the old man eats and drinks indiscriminately makes people feel that he is most likely the reincarnation of a starving ghost.

When Xu Zongwen took his hand back, he clenched it in his palm. His eyes widened and he cried out in surprise: "Boy, I've been causing trouble to this general for so long, and I finally caught you! This time, where are you going?"

In the palm of Xu Zongwen's hand was a lice that had been crushed to death. It must be said that the sanitary conditions in Jiankang Prison were really not optimistic.

In a pun, what Xu Zongwen said was both lice and Jiankang's order to restore the king.

Sure enough, Wang Fu, who had been immersed in officialdom for many years, quickly heard the hidden meaning of Xu Zongwen!

"It's all because the lower officials were blinded by lard that the general suffered such grievances. Someone will come and clean the cell. It must be spotless!" Wang Fu smiled and turned around to show a ferocious look to the jailers.

.

"No!" Chen Si and others saluted with their hands raised, and they immediately took action.

Xu Zongwen suddenly stood up and stopped him: "That's enough, stop acting. Do you still want me to continue living here?"

Wang Fugang was about to stand up. When he heard Xu Zongwen's words, he felt happy, but he kept his expression and immediately knelt down again. He apologized again and again: "It's all my fault that Xiaguan has such a bad mouth..."

Xu Zongwen's intention to leave was obvious. If Wang Fu couldn't even hear this, then his three-year Jiankang Order would have been in vain!

"Okay, let me release this Taoist priest too, and this matter is over, otherwise!"

It stands to reason that Xu Zongwen made the request and Wang Fu agreed, and the problem was solved. Who knows that Wang Fu repeatedly accused him but did not dare to let him go.

Wang Fu explained: "The general is giving me a hard time. This Taoist priest was placed here by Master Jingyuan. No matter what, I can't disobey Master Jingyuan!"

The jailer Chen Si had quick eyes and quick hands. Seeing that Xu Zongwen didn't understand Master Jingyuan, he had time to go over and explain.

With Chen Si's explanation, Xu Zongwen realized that Master Jingyuan was the Taoist most trusted and favored by the current emperor, and that Master Jingyuan was also the current head of Tianshi Dao!

Xu Zongwen understood, so he changed his mind. He asked Wang Fu to promote the jailer Chen Si to the position of warden and manage Jiankang Prison. When Wang Fu heard that Xu Zongwen had changed his mind, he immediately agreed.

Xu Zongwen left Jiankang Prison with the personal gifts of Wang Fu and Chen Si. At this time, Xi Jian, Guo Shang and Xu Zongwen's confidants had been waiting for a long time...

"General, have you heard about Beifu soldiers selling refugees?" Everyone gathered around Xu Zongwen and on the way back to Xie's Mansion in Wuyi Lane, Xi Jian took out a secret letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Zongwen. It was sent by Pang Bai.

After Pang Bai came to Jiankang, Pang Bai did not live in Xie's Mansion. Instead, he settled in a carriage and horse shop in the outer city of Jiankang. The development of Jinyiwei in Jiankang City was slow, so he had no choice but to take action himself. In the past few days, Jinyiwei had heard about

A secret about Beifu soldiers...

After carefully reading the secret letter, Xu Zongwen suddenly realized: "It seems that Xun Chong, the Marquis of Xichang, is also related to the gentry's alliance with Beifu soldiers to sell refugees. At least he has benefited from it."

Xi Jian interjected: "What the general said is absolutely true. The soldiers from the Beifu were recruited by the Xie family. In fact, they were mixed with many people from other noble families. In the Northern Expedition, refugees were plundered and sold to the south of the Yangtze River, and the soldiers in the army were closely related to the noble families.

The old practice of dividing interests equally has a long history.”

"Since the Northern Expedition, every time the Beifu soldiers captured a city, they would plunder and sell people to the south of the Yangtze River. During the Northern Expedition, the Jin Dynasty captured the ten counties and cities of Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Sili, and Yizhou, Qinzhou, and Liangzhou.

There are more than two hundred cities. When Liu Laozhi attacked Qiaojun, he not only robbed the population, but also allowed his subordinates to massacre the city!"

Hearing that the Beifu soldiers actually massacred the city, Guo Shang immediately angrily said: "Liu Laozhi is so bold that he dares to massacre the city? It is so unconscionable. This is what Hulu did and it was an act of annihilation of humanity!"

"Three feet of ice will not last in a day. This matter is serious, let's go back to Xie's Mansion to discuss it." Xu Zongwen looked solemn. He knew that this matter was very involved, and he might also be dragged into the water.

It seems that we can only figure it out slowly.
