It was already late at night, and a storm came to Lingzhou Prefecture, which had just experienced a drastic change, making the mansion where no one was out late at night look darker and quieter.

But to many people's surprise, in the middle of the night, the city gate that should have been closed was secretly opened by someone. Three important prisoners who should have been taken into jail and were strictly guarded by the Qingzhou Army were sent out of the city. The one who sent them out of the city was Sun Tu, the chief supervisor of Jingdong Road, who was personally led people to capture them.

These three repeated offenders were naturally Zeng Tu, Zeng Suo and Zeng Sheng. At this time, they had already changed into long-distance outfits, equipped with swords, guns, bows, arrows, and weapons. Even each of them had a horse around them, which was considered a very high treatment in the Song army.

Sun Tu, who was standing beside them, looked at them carefully for a while before saying, "Did you remember the road to Jin Kingdom this time? Also, you must think clearly about how to win the trust of them after arriving at the place. If there is any mistake, you will die without a place to bury."

Zeng Suo grinned: "Don't worry, Sun Dujian, your life belongs to our brothers, so naturally I dare not be careless. The Jin people are irreconcilable with our brothers. As long as we give us a chance, it will definitely turn the world upside down, which can be regarded as the last thing we do for the Song Dynasty."

"Then let's go, I hope everything goes well for you." Sun Tu nodded at them, then clasped his fists. The three of them had already flew onto the horses, without any hesitation, and then rode towards the darkness ahead. During the period when they were sending them out of the city, Sun Tu never questioned whether these three of them would repent or betray them, as if the three of them were his confidants.

Sun Tu was very generous in this regard, but the people around him couldn't help but mutter. Especially Chu Mingsheng, the governor of Lingzhou, looked nervous and endured for a while before tentatively saying: "Du Jian, is it too hasty to let them go like this? They are descendants of the Jurchens after all. If they let the tiger return to the mountain... and their crimes are not light. If some people know about it, they will be in great trouble."

"Since you want to use them, it's not easy to doubt them, otherwise it will only make things more complicated. As the saying goes, no doubt about using people. I believe that with the deep hatred they have formed with the Jurchens, as long as they are given a chance, they will definitely do some big things in the Jin Kingdom." Sun Tu said with a smile, with a calm face: "As for you who are worried about the extracurricular rumor, now you and me and my brothers in the Qingzhou army, you are the brothers around me who know this matter. I believe that the brothers around me will not talk nonsense unless..." As he said that, he glanced up and down again.

This made Chu Mingsheng shudder and quickly swear, saying, "Sun Dujian, you can rest assured. It is impossible for Beizhi to reveal what happened today to anyone. If you dare to mention a word to others, you will tell me that my intestines are broken and my five horses will die!"

Seeing his nervous look, Sun Tu laughed unconsciously and patted the other party on the shoulder: "There is no need for Chu Dujian to do this. I naturally trust you, otherwise I would not have called you to send them away. Moreover, I can see that you are a capable person. In the future, you will have to work hard to deal with the Liangshan bandits who have suffered from the trouble of me in Shandong for a long time." Sun Tu's words were sincere. Only Zhang Yunfeng had a certain understanding of the Lingzhou Dujian. This time he came to Lingzhou and had a further personal experience. He saw that this person did have real talent and knowledge. Although his personal martial arts skills were far inferior to Dong Ping, he was not inferior to him, so he naturally had the intention to take it for himself.

As mentioned before, Sun Tu now has no shortage of pioneer generals who dare to fight and fight. The few are excellent commanders who can train troops and lead troops, stand on their own, and share some military affairs for him. This time he was lucky, and he actually found Chu Mingsheng, a veteran in Lingzhou.

Chu Mingsheng was stunned and understood Sun Tu's intention of recruiting him, which made him happy. He quickly clasped his fists and said, "You can respect the Minister of the Capital. I will obey the teachings and orders in the future and dare not violate them."

Nodding with satisfaction, Sun Tucai smiled and said, "That's good. I believe that as long as we generals are united, our entire Shandong will be able to truly peace soon, and we can also clear the chaos for the court and the world."

"Yes, I think so too." Chu Mingsheng also laughed. He was really happy. If Sun Tu really could be his backer, his back in Lingzhou would be much stronger in the future. There is no need to worry about the prefect Weng and others coming to make things difficult for him.

Thinking of this, he put his mind on the case of the foreign enemy in the prefecture of Weng, and couldn't help but whisper: "Chief, how should the prefecture of Weng be dealt with? Should I report it to the court? Or..." In his opinion, it is better to report it to him for not knowing the matter. It would be better to give him a suicide in prison for fear of his crime, which would be over. After all, Mr. Weng also has a backer behind him, and it is hard to say what the result is.

Sun Tu shook his head and said, "We are doing this rightly and do our best. We will naturally report all his crimes to the court fairly and openly. I have already made plans before. I will send someone to investigate Zengtou City tomorrow and then ask the people in the city to go to the government office to file a lawsuit. As long as the crime is conclusive, are you still afraid that he will be able to make a fuss?"

Seeing that Sun Tu had a certain idea, Chu Mingsheng didn't say much, and could only just say it.

He was actually a bit too arrogant to Sun Tu, thinking that this young general could really be lawless and lawless, and could kill the imperial court officials like slaughtering pigs and dogs, and would not be backfired after the end. But in fact, Sun Tu himself knew that the previous few killings were helpless actions by accident, and the consequences were also quite dangerous. He had already prepared the plan to be an enemy of the Song Dynasty court before he gritted his teeth and killed them.

But today's Lingzhou prefect did not really take on his mortal hatred, so naturally he didn't need to take the risk of killing him. Anyway, none of these officials were clean, and as long as they were investigated, they could dig out many crimes and handed them to the court, they would naturally be able to solve them by others.

Sun Tu's plan was most comprehensively implemented the next day. First, he sent people to Zengtou City to search for relevant evidence of crimes, and then the government office also found a large number of letters, invitations and other items that were exchanged between the prefect Weng and Zengtou City, which was enough to confirm that the prefect of Lingzhou had a crime of close contact with the Jurchen spy.

Afterwards, when the servants in the yamen preached to the people that Sun Dujian wanted to make decisions for the people and asked everyone to sue the prefect Weng, the people who were deeply injustice ran over with a try-and-see attitude.

It was not until this time that Sun Tu knew how many unethical things the prefect had done in Lingzhou City. In order to make good friends with wealthy businessmen and tyrants in the city, he often referred to deer as horses and turned black and white. Not only that, later he even started himself. For some money and land, the women's house could always come up with various crimes and forced some innocent people to be imprisoned, causing many people to be wronged and their families were destroyed...

If these things were not exposed, I am afraid that no one would believe that this prefect, who is serious and gentleman, would have committed so many shameless crimes. But now, because of Sun Tu's strong move, the other side of the prefect Weng's hidden is exposed in the sunshine, which makes people feel heartbroken and unable to calm down for a long time.

Even Chu Mingsheng, who had a great conflict with the prefect Weng, looked disbelief after learning the relevant details: "He... he actually did so many evil things behind his back, and I still didn't know it..."

Of course, 90% of these things were done by the people under the command of the prefect Weng, and at this time those who were accomplices of the tiger naturally could not escape the law. In three days, thirty or forty prisoners were imprisoned in the prison, most of whom were helping the prefect Weng cause trouble for Lingzhou.

After all the people were arrested and the crimes were found out, Sun Tu asked someone to bring the prefect Weng who was held in prison to the front. At this time, this man was no longer as calm as before, and almost knelt down as soon as he saw Sun Tu. When Sun Tu listed his crimes one by one, he looked even more disdainful, his knees softened, and finally knelt down in front of Sun Tu: "Sun... Sun Dujian, the lower officials really don't know that Zengtou City is actually a descendant of the Jurchens, so they have some contact with them..."

"Our officials will know this naturally, but how should you explain it?"

"I... the lower-ranking official is also forced to do anything. It is really a welcome and sent off in the officialdom. The cost of handling the upper and lower levels is too much. It is hard to support it with only the salary, so I have to search for it from the people." The prefect Weng explained in a low voice with a bitter face.

"Hmph, the salaries of officials in our court have always been generous, and even I have never been worried about it. You actually use this as an excuse. Are you really fools in the world?" Sun Tu sneered disdainfully.

Priest Weng looked at Sun Tu and finally said honestly: "The Chief Executive doesn't know anything. If ordinary officials naturally don't have to do these things, but the officials are a little different. Because I need to respect a large amount of money to a prime minister in the court. Otherwise, I can't be appointed as the governor of a state within just five years of becoming an official."

But Sun Tu was stunned: "Oh? Who is the priest in the court who needs to please the filial piety?"

"He... is the current prime minister, Grand Master Cai." While reporting his backing, the originally bent waist suddenly straightened up, and the panic in his eyes quickly dissipated, as if just by showing this backing out, it would be enough to solve all problems.

This statement really made Sun Tu's face condense, and even the hands of the two clerks who were listening to the record were shaking, and they drew a trace of ink on the clean book.
