Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
One hundred and sixty first chapter poked a hornet's nest
There was a torch at the door of the "interrogation room", and the flame was even brighter, making the two oil lamps lit inside useless. Guo Shao, as a general of the imperial army, doesn't care about such trivial things as setting up a private punishment hall. His current position is to kill a few people casually.
Luo Mengzi yelled at Li Chongjin at the side, Guo Shao was annoyed by his quarrel, and annoyed, he shouted: "Shut up! Third brother, you go and prepare now and set off. When you arrive in Tokyo, it is dawn. Take my letter to the Department of Guards and report directly to Han Tong... You should go to your second brother first. Yang Biao will take care of things. I am more at ease. Stop yelling about who it is, and you yelling a fart without evidence!"
Being scolded, Luo Mengzi patted his head and stopped talking. This guy is Pi Shi, and he only listens to scolding him, but he still listens to Guo Shao's persuasion.
Guo Shao said again: "I will write another letter, suggesting that after Han informs the Privy Council, the Kaifeng government should send someone to seal up the kilns and gambling houses on Guihua Street in Dongshi. Since Li Xia'er is in charge there, someone may know his details."
He turned back to his soldiers and said, "Shut your mouth, and ten fingers will be used as a punishment."
Li Mazi was in a hurry, he struggled and tossed his chair until it crackled loudly, and shouted, "I'm telling the truth, General, I... um!"
Guo Shaodao: "Do you know who I am? The guard Sima Budu Yuhou, the chief official of the Kaifeng Mansion has to nod and bow when he sees me. You are a rascal, you dare to play tricks in front of me. It seems that you will not cry when you see the coffin."
The things in this room are not special, everything is missing, and the soldiers are looking for bamboo sticks again. Guo Shaodao: "Take some salt and soak it into strong brine, as well as strong wine, soak it with a bamboo stick to make it more exciting."
Of course, it can also be sterilized, so that this guy doesn't get infected and die. Li Mazi was waiting for the torture, and he nodded his head desperately. Seeing this, Guo Shao said: "Let him say a word, anyway, we have to wait for the things to come."
As soon as Li Mazi pulled out the cloth from his mouth, he hurriedly said, "Li Xia'er often goes in and out of Zhao's house!"
Guo Shao immediately became interested, and asked, "Tell me in detail." Li Mazi said, "Then Li Xia'er is my brother and brother, and he is very close to me, but he has no family in Tokyo. I don't know what his background is, so I asked him, but he didn't tell me.
"The commander in front of the hall is Zhao Kuangyin's residence?" Guo Shao asked directly.
Li Mazi nodded and said, "Yes, it's the residence of Zhao Hongyin and Zhao Kuangyin. But twice I saw Li Xia'er was with the third son of the Zhao family."
Guo Shao glanced at the pen and ink on the table, and ordered: "Release, let him free his right hand, and write down everything you just confessed. Can you read?"
Li Mazi said: "Know some characters." He picked up the pen tremblingly, and asked: "Will you still be punished?" Guo Shao said: "I won't for the time being, just write hard."
While waiting for him to write the confession, Guo Shao pressed his forehead and pondered for a while. Zhao San has no grievances or enmities with himself, why should he do it next time, is it just because he has taken a fancy to Li Niangzi and developed hatred? Mrs. Li is not his wife, so there is no need to take a big risk if she is jealous... If Mrs. Li is Zhao San's wife, it would make sense for Guo Shao to insult his wife.
Could it be Zhao Kuangyin's mastermind behind the scenes?
Guo Shao also felt that it didn't make sense. It didn't make sense for Zhao Kuangyin to assassinate and blame Li Chongjin. Guo Shao and Li Chongjin didn't get along in the first place. Moreover, if Zhao Kuangyin really died, Guo Shao didn't think he could escape this time;
But the powerful Chai Rong is still there, and Guo Shao is not considered the most powerful general in the Forbidden Army, and his prestige and qualifications are even more insufficient. There was no need for Zhao Kuangyin to do this at all, he had to act so lowly and unscrupulously with a general who seemed to pose no threat to him for the time being. It's not like what Zhao Kuangyin did.
It was almost certainly Zhao San!
Although that guy's motives are a bit unbelievable, they still make sense logically; besides, Zhao San has no experience, and he is just a punk, so his mentality cannot be understood in the same way as old punks like Li Chongjin and Zhao Kuangyin... The seventeen or eighteen-year-old green-skinned youth who is doing nothing all day long is the time when he is not afraid of anything;
Zhao San has no strength, but now Guo Shao has a chill towards that guy.
Countless thoughts and feelings surged in Guo Shao's mind, and it even made him feel like everything was tangled together like a ball of hemp. But it only takes him a moment to sort this mess out.
Zhao San's shady tricks made Guo Shao feel the highest level of hostility. It's easy to hide with open guns but hard to defend against. He wasn't defeated, but was plotted to death. I'm afraid no one can accept such consequences. Guo Shao's direct idea is to kill Zhao San!
The best solution, of course, is to put him to death in a fair manner. If Li Xia'er can be captured and Li Xia'er confessed, then Zhao San will be convicted... Li Xia'er may be difficult to catch, but there are indeed a few lines that can roughly verify the relationship between Li Xia'er and the Zhao family. For example, the servants of the Zhao family may have seen Li Xia'er; and Li Xia'er's appearance was described by Li Mazi. It depends on how to operate.
But more considerations came to Guo Shao's mind: Zhao San could be put to death at most, and Zhao Kuangyin would not be able to move; unless he completely disregarded the situation and fought Zhao Kuangyin like Zhao San, it would be difficult to win...Have you considered the emperor's feelings?
In any case, if Zhao Kuangyin has a chance in the future, he probably won't let Guo Shao go. Guo Shao also thought of more people: What would Chai Rong think when he saw these confessions and evidence? What would Li Chongjin think?
What Zhao San did was indeed stabbing a hornet's nest. Guo Shao felt that he could not learn from him or be stupid, so he had to think about it holistically.
...When it was dawn, the Datong Temple Inn became even more lively. Dozens of Guo Shao's personal soldiers arrived first, and then Wang Pu and Han Tong, deputy envoys of the Privy Council, brought the cavalry directly. After noon, a group of officials from Dali Temple and Kaifeng Mansion also came to inspect the site.
Wang Pu said calmly: "Where is General Guo injured, let everyone see."
Wang Pu obviously didn't doubt Guo Shao, but just saw everything clearly in front of everyone. Guo Shaosui undressed and took off his belt. Just as he undid his belt, he suddenly remembered that the wound was bound up with a tube top! His movements froze immediately.
Seeing this, Han Tong asked, "What's the matter? General Guo doesn't want to show us?"
Damn Han stared, his words were really ugly. Could it be that I'm still pretending to be injured... Why should I pretend that the house is blown down?
But when it came to this point, Guo Shao had no choice but to bite the bullet and unbutton his robe, regardless of the details. Everyone saw that they hardly laughed at this serious occasion, Wang Pu's face turned red, and Han Tong stared at each other with rounded eyes.
Guo Shao untied the pink tube top, pointed to the wound and said, "The arrows are smeared with arsenic, and the clusters of arrows are kept, so that the Tui officials can bring people to check."
After watching the wounds, everyone collected some of the murder weapons and the powder after the gunpowder burned. Wang Pu looked at the residual powder, took it up to his nose and sniffed it, and said to Guo Shao in a deep voice: "General Guo's prescription, not many people know about it. But there is also gunpowder for making fireworks and firecrackers on the market, and Taoists also use it to ignite fires. It's hard to check the powder after it's burnt out."
Guo Shaodao: "I don't usually bully men and women to go around and make grievances. I'm afraid ordinary people are not capable of doing such things."
Wang Pu nodded, without comment, and said: "The criminal handed it over to me, and there is a confession."
Guo Shao hesitated a little. Wang Pu said again in front of everyone: "It's the official's intention. You can rest assured if you leave it to me. Mr. Wang is very fair in doing things." Guo Shao heard that it was the official's intention. Wang Pu couldn't pretend to pass the imperial decree in front of several ministers, so he agreed.
Wang Pu read the confession first, and then said: "The Kaifeng government sent people to check the kilns and gambling houses in Tokyo. Because the ban army generals were set up, the Privy Council will send people to participate. Then some people will be sent to search for clues nearby, and the announcement will be made to the prefectures and counties nearby to handle the case together."
He said to Guo Shao: "After returning to Beijing, I will arrange for someone to interrogate the criminal, draw a portrait of the main criminal (Li Xia'er), and arrest him everywhere."
Wang Pu arranged the scene in a few words, and he grasped the key point in his indifferent conversation: apart from the people who were caught on the spot, the most important thing was to check the brothels in Dongshi.
Seeing Wang Pu's ability and demeanor, Guo Shao couldn't help admiring him. Wang Pu was old and thin, and his appearance was not as good as Wei Renpu's, but his ability and the way to control the situation were probably a bit higher than Wei Renpu's.
Wang Pu said again: "General Guo will go home to heal his wounds and pay attention to the guards. Don't worry about other things. We will give you an answer."
Guo Shao said: "Thanks to Deputy Wang for presiding over the situation."
He suddenly had an idea: Although this matter was dangerous and almost killed him, it has passed, and now it seems that there is a lot of room for development.
