Chapter 145: You have to drink Liu Baihu’s wine even if you don’t want to drink it
Liu Chengfeng was not polite. He picked up the wine cup brought by Li Dutou and drank three glasses of wine in a row. He then wiped the wine stains on his lips with his sleeve and looked around at everyone.
Anyone who was seen by Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but feel a little cold on the back. This man's eyes were not scary, and even a bit gentle, but it happened that a guy who not long ago was carrying a butcher knife and killing people everywhere used such gentle eyes.
Looking at you makes people feel like their scalp is numb.
Liu Chengfeng smiled like a spring breeze, and then said: "I invite you all here today to discuss some things. Everyone knows that the Hundred Households Office in Yanhua Hutong is now in charge of Yanhua Hutong and Yingchunfang. To put it harshly, it is actually
It's a bit hard to get away, but since the rules of the imperial court are here, Liu, as a pro-military, naturally has to abide by his duties. Naturally, this Fireworks Alley and Yingchunfang must hold firm. A few days ago, I,
Well, I went to Dali Temple for a trip, but when I came back I found that the rules of being pro-military were broken..."
When Liu Chengfeng said this, his smile became even brighter. He played with the wine glass in his hand and continued: "Mingren, please don't tell secrets. Originally, in the fireworks alley, Jinyiwei collected the peace money, and now Dongchang also participated in it."
Feet, even Shuntian Mansion has come in, think about it..." Liu Chengfeng said with a distressed look: "Those businessmen in the Firework Alley are doing their jobs, living peacefully, working hard, and forcing good girls into prostitution.
Is it easy? In the past, you only had to pay one share of the peace money, but now you have to pay three shares. How many girls do you need to sell and laugh to earn it back? How can you bear to earn this bitch money? "
The faces of Deng Baotou and Li Dutou were downcast, and they couldn't help but curse in their hearts: You can make money, why can't we? If you can't bear it, the worst that can happen is that Jin Yiwei will quit, so why bother threatening me to stop?
Liu Chengfeng took a deep breath and said: "In addition to this, there is Yingchunfang. Merchants have to pay taxes when they disembark, but some restless people dare to go there blatantly because of their snobbery.
Is it easy for people to come all the way to the capital to do business in order to collect incense money? They have parents, wives and children, and they are just trying to make a living. How can some people do it like this?"
The faces of the Taoist people at the next table couldn't help but change. Some looked frightened, while others didn't take it seriously. That day Xuanzi just sat on his chair as if in trance, motionless.
Liu Chengfeng immediately laughed and said: "There are still some people who collude with others to lower the price of goods, sell them at high prices, and even buy and sell them by force to the point of killing people and stealing goods. It's really abominable."
He immediately smiled, looked at the embarrassed people, took a sip of wine, and said directly to a businessman: "Look at what others do! The person Liu is talking about is you, isn't your name Wang Hai? You are in the silk business.
…”
Then Wang Hai was angry. We are all people of high status, but now the man surnamed Liu actually pointed at his nose and yelled at him in front of everyone. Wang Hai slammed the wine table and said seriously: "Master Liu said
If so, I don’t understand at all. I’m here to thank you for your hospitality today, but I’m too drunk now, so I’ll take my leave.”
Liu Chengfeng sat still, while Wang Hai walked away.
The eyes of everyone present were all fixed on Wang Hai. Wang Hai had just opened the curtain of the wing, but found that there were several captains standing outside the wing with their swords drawn. They gave him a cold look and remained silent.
Wang Hai's expression changed, and then he snorted coldly, turned to Liu Chengfeng and said, "Master Liu, what do you mean?"
Liu Chengfeng said calmly: "It's not interesting. It's just a treat from someone Liu. Can you just leave at your request?"
Liu Chengfeng's expression suddenly changed. He was as calm as a spring breeze just now, but now he is cold and heartless, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, with a hint of sneer.
Wang Hai said angrily: "This is a place with royal law. Could you still kill me? Huh, farewell!" Without saying a word, he rushed out.
Several other people couldn't help but get angry. It's just that you, Liu Chengfeng, want to treat guests. You are just a member of the Imperial Guard, and none of us may have a lower status than you. But you are scolding us in front of everyone, but you are
What do you mean? In just a few words, you scolded everyone. If you don’t give everyone face, why should they give you face? Are they really afraid of you?
Another person stood up and said, "I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
With someone taking the lead, the rest of the people were also excited, but after all, there were not many impulsive people. Many people's eyes couldn't help but fall on Deng Baotou and Li Dutou. Both of them were official figures, involved in
We'll see what to do when we get to Dongchang and Shuntianfu.
Deng Baotou and Li Dutou looked at each other, as if they were waiting for each other's move. Deng Baotou already felt in his heart that the opportunity had come. Although Dongchang was being suppressed by Jin Yiwei, he still wanted the face. Liu
No matter how scary Chengfeng is, can he still chop off his own head?
Besides, Liu Chengfeng is seeking death on his own, and he has offended everyone with just a few words. If he starts it now, everyone will respond. How dare Liu Chengfeng offend everyone?
killed?
Deng Dutou is now waiting for Li Dutou's move.
In fact, Li Dutou was also waiting for Deng Baotou to express his position.
The two of them seemed to be working hard, looking calm and calm, just waiting for the other to lose their composure.
But Li Dutou was sitting still like an old monk, refusing to be the first person no matter what. Deng Dutou was already anxious, gritted his teeth, and suddenly stood up.
When people at the banquet saw Deng standing up, their eyes couldn't help but light up.
Deng Baotou sneered: "Liu Chengfeng, you are too presumptuous. Not to mention that you are only a hundred households, even if your thousands of households are here, not many people here will be afraid. Humph, you invite everyone to have a drink."
, everyone sees that you have gained face, but why do you treat guests like this? Mr. Deng is too drunk today, please say goodbye! "
He said nothing, snorted coldly, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.
After Deng Dutou finished speaking, Li Dutou also stood up, smiled, and said: "It seems that I can't drink this wine, so Mr. Li must have taken his leave."
With the two of them taking the lead, the rest of the people stood up one after another. Many people are daring. This Liu Chengfeng is a ferocious man. At this time, there is nothing to be afraid of. They all said: "Master Liu, take your leave."
Dozens of people, except for a few timid ones and Tian Xuanzi who was in trance, all went out together. Although the captain outside blocked the door with his knife, those people passed by them without stopping them.
.Suddenly, the room became deserted.
There was no emotion or anger on Liu Chengfeng's face. He just sighed and said, "It's a pity that there are so many good dishes. Well... I'll pack them up later and take them back for the brothers to have a midnight snack."
He poured himself a drink as if no one was around, and laughed with the few remaining businessmen: "They have all left, why don't you leave?"
These businessmen are only obedient. If they want to leave, they won't do it. If they don't, they won't.
Deng Baotou led a group of people downstairs. It was still raining heavily outside. These people were not in a hurry to leave, but were waiting for the servants to bring them raincoats and umbrellas. However, at this time, a sharp sound was suddenly heard at the end of the street.
drink.
"The emperor offended Lei Biao..."
"The imperial convict Liu Dong..."
"The imperial convict Yang Jian..."
In the heavy rain, six captains escorted three wet men out.
A man who looked like a small flag wearing a bamboo hat braved the rain and stepped on a man to kneel down. He held up his chin, as if to verify his identity, and then shouted: "It's Lei Biao, that's right. Here comes,
Execution."
Two swordsmen and axemen stood beside them. Without saying a word, they slashed down with the long swords in their hands.
Click...
The inaudible sound of the blade entering the bone was quickly drowned out by the sound of rain, and a head rolled to the ground, blood splattering everywhere...
The little flag followed step by step, walked to another prisoner, raised his chin: "That's right, execution..."
The long knife drew a half-arc in mid-air...
The fierce roar pierced the sound of rain.
Deng Stall's face turned pale all of a sudden. As a Dongchang Stall, he had done nothing to save lives. But what he saw was that dozens of people were tied up with ropes in the rain curtain.
, one after another, they were led into the mud like a revolving lantern, Xiao Qi's voice was loud and harsh, and with one order, one person's head fell to the ground.
Deng Baotou and Li Dutou were fine, but the Taoists and businessmen behind them all had pale faces. Everyone had seen killings before, but this was the first time they had seen such killings, not to mention the one Xiao Qi was calling.
Everyone has heard of this name. Lei Biao used to be a person they drank and chatted with, and the ground would tremble when he stomped his feet in Yingchun Square. As for Liu Dong, he was also a good man who could eat freely wherever he went.
If you mess with him, he will cause you to have your family destroyed and your family to die. He is a ruthless person who will never give up.
Although Yang Jian is also a scoundrel, it is said that this man's father worked as a purge in a certain government, so he was rampant in the capital. Although he had a few lives in his hands, the government turned a blind eye.
.
But now these thunderous people were soaked in the rain like dead dogs, their hands were tied with straw ropes, their mouths were stuffed with hay, their eyes showed extreme fear, and their heads were immediately beheaded.
Another head fell to the ground.
One of the merchants was so frightened that his crotch was already wet, and the fat on his face was trembling. His eyes were dull, and finally a glimmer of light flashed through his eyes, and he shouted: "Liu Baihu invited us to drink, how can we refuse?"
His face? I was confused just now. In fact, there is nothing wrong with my family. I...I want to go back...go back..."
He turned over and rushed up the stairs to the second floor without hesitation.
The rest of the people were so frightened that their teeth chattered, and they rushed back one after another, scrambling for the first place, as if they were crazy.
