Dominate Marvel

Zheng Yunzhi smiled and said: "Then please come and meet him. I want to see what kind of person he is."

Uncle Huai nodded, bowed and retreated. Within a moment, he led the three people to the door.

"The master is inside, please three of you."

He waited outside the door, opened the door for the three of them, invited them in, and then closed the door.

Li Mingyi and Li Xiucai were classmates of Sun Xiucai. Following him were Sun Xiucai and Ying Yi.

Upon entering, Li Mingyi and Sun Xiucai said, "The county respects your parents" and saluted them. Ying Yi stood up straight and saluted. It has been more than half a year since he came to this era, and Ying Yi has become accustomed to some common etiquette between people. It's just that it doesn't feel good to be groveling. Even in front of the county magistrate, he never bowed.

Zheng Yunzhi's eyes swept over the two scholars, and finally landed on the tall and burly Ying Yi.

When he saw it, he really felt that this proud man had an unusual temperament. Standing there, it was like a city wall, thick and steady, as if nothing could make him bend. It sounds like he is just a commoner, but facing him as a county official, he is not as humble as he should be. Instead, he is treated with pride as an equal.

Ying Yi himself didn't feel much.

The so-called equality or not cannot be expressed in words and actions. The key is to have the ability to be equal to others. Only when you think you are capable can you feel that you can be equal to others. Otherwise, if you don’t have the ability, no matter how much you feel, no matter how much you jump up and down, it will be in vain.

Even hundreds of years later, the talk of equality is just a self-comfort for the common people. Not to mention facing the richest man in the world or the head of a country, even the richest man in a town or a civil servant, ordinary people feel lowered in front of them, fawning when they should, and flattering when they should.

"sit."

Zheng Yunzhi spoke concisely. After the three of them sat down, he said, "I wonder if the two ladies have anything to do with the county?"

Although he thinks Ying Yi has an extraordinary temperament, he is still a commoner and doesn't really care.

Li Xiucai said: "The county honors you. It is indeed a big event, but for the details, we have to ask the student's classmates and this brave man Ying Yi."

"Oh?" Zheng Yunzhi looked at Sun Xiucai.

Sun Xiucai said: "If you go back to the county, Brother Ying knows the best about this matter."

Only then did Ying Yi speak: "May I ask the county magistrate if a batch of military pay is about to arrive in Ye County?"

Ying Yi is not long-winded, he goes straight to the core.

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, his body tensed up for a moment, his expression was solemn, and his eyes were sharp: "How did you know that military pay had arrived in Ye County?!"

No admission, but no denial either.

Ying Yi said: "Your Majesty, please listen to me."

He told the story of Mr. Yuan, Hao Yaoqi and the bandits one by one.

"I am from Xiaowangzhuang, the same hometown as Sun Xiucai. I went hunting in the mountains a few days ago, and I never thought that a tiger would kill the folks in Xiaowangzhuang. After I came down from the mountain, I followed him all night to find a tiger to take revenge...I will come to Ye County the next day. , entered the city at night and found Sun Xiucai. I originally planned to go north early this morning to see if I could find an opportunity to kill a tiger, but when I left Xishan Tower, I unexpectedly heard the news."

Ying Yi started from the beginning in an orderly manner: "At that time, there was only one table of people eating in the lobby of Xishan Tower. I had sharp ears and eyes. I listened to what they said about military pay from the west of Ganxi, and what they said about 'Chuang King' and so on. I felt that they were not Good idea. I and the bandits are sworn in. My eldest brother, sister-in-law, niece and little girl all died in the hands of the bandits. How could I let them go after hearing this news? I waited for them to come out and followed them secretly. I never thought that they would A hole was opened under the city wall in a remote place in the north of the city!"

At this point, Ying Yi looked at Zheng Yunzhi, whose expression changed: "A wise man will always make mistakes. The county magistrate cannot listen to all directions and see six directions, so some omissions are inevitable."

Zheng Yunzhi sighed and heard Ying Yi say: "Five people, four people left the cave. I caught the last person and asked him for the information."

"Please come quickly, strong man!" Zheng Yunzhi's heart was beating wildly.

Ying Yi said: "The news about military pay in western Jiangxi was passed on to the bandits by the person named Yuan who was disguised as a man. I don't know how the court kept it secret, but it was in the hands of a female bandit. It's really ridiculous. "

Zheng Yunzhi was stunned.

Ying Yi said: "This woman seems determined to join the bandits and vote for her because of the news about military pay. But the person she contacted was Hao Yaoqi, a thief general under the bandits. Those three old thieves were Hao Yaoqi's His subordinates. They don't know what means they used to sneak into the city, and they opened a hole in the city wall. Once the military pay arrived, Hao Yaoqi's army came to the city, surrounded them, and then cooperated with each other inside and outside to eat them all."

Zheng Yunzhi broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, and felt extremely happy in her heart.

He quickly asked: "Where is the old thief that the strong man captured now?"

Ying Yi said: "Still in Sun Xiucai's room in Xishan. The county magistrate can ask someone to pick it up immediately. In addition, the county magistrate should also make an idea as soon as possible on how to deal with the hole under the wall in the north of the city. If it is to be stable, Then block the hole. If you want to catch someone by surprise and use a trick, leave the hole open, and wait until the thief gets Hao Waiqi to be proud, then give him a severe blow."

Zheng Yunzhi did not make up his mind immediately and called the old servant who was guarding the door in: "Uncle Huai, tell Xiao Wu to take people to Xishan Residence immediately to get the people. In addition, go and see the hole in the north of the city. Don't fill it in yet. "

"Yes, sir." Uncle Huai didn't dare to neglect and was about to leave in a hurry.

Ying Yi reminded him at this time: "I didn't ask if there were any thieves in the city at that time. When the old man went to get someone, it was best not to make any noise, so as not to alert others."

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, he secretly thought it was true and quickly gave instructions.

Uncle Huai said: "Don't worry, Master."

When Uncle Huai left, Zheng Yunzhi ignored the authority of the county official and said gratefully: "Ying Zhuang has a great heart and is a role model. Without Ying Zhuang, things would be bad here!"

Ying Yi shook his head: "I am a common man, and the words of the county magistrate are serious. The water of the Three Rivers cannot wash away the hatred between me and the bandits. If I can make the bandits suffer a big loss, I will do anything."

Zheng Yunzhi showed admiration, her heart changed, and she said with a smile: "Ying Zhuangshi has great righteousness in his heart, why not serve the country and the people? The bandits are powerful, and it is difficult for Ying Zhuangshi to take revenge on his own. Now that the imperial court is suppressing the bandits again, it is a great opportunity. , the county is short of a hundred households, why don't Ying Zhuangshi take up the responsibility?"

But it was recruiting.

Ying Yi had no intention of becoming an official or a general in his heart, but if he was not tied to Zheng Yunzhi in the plot, it would be difficult for him to participate in the subsequent events. He had already discussed with Sun Xiucai that if Zheng Yunzhi recruited him, he would agree to it for the time being and wait until the matter was completed before doing what he wanted.

So Ying Yi showed hesitation and said: "I planned to repay the lives of more than a hundred people in Xiaowangzhuang by killing a tiger. Pursuing them earlier was the best opportunity. But I was afraid of being implicated and taken hostage. The villagers in Bao let a tiger escape. Now that a tiger has gone north to join the intruder, it will be difficult to kill him. The county magistrate has good intentions. I am a common man and I don’t understand the justice of the world. As long as I can do it for me I am willing to take revenge on my brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces and fellow villagers."

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, she smiled and said, "Okay!"
