Chapter 315: Be a Bad Guy
At this time, the guards around Jia Cong included Long Aotian, Zhong Yin, Wu Sange, Wu Zunsheng, and several sailors on the boat, Liu Xianglian and others were changing shifts. Fortunately, the above four were all good players, but today's incident made Jia Cong extremely angry.
He has done a lot of things like killing people by borrowing a knife or buying murderers, but today he finally tasted it.
It’s not surprising that there are open and hidden arrows in the officialdom, and it depends on what the individual has done and how much it has done.
Like Wei Zhongxian's minions and teeth were rampant in the world, the Dongchang mansion and the Jinyiwei were all encouraged by people in Suzhou and beaten to death on the spot!
Is this kind of thing that has not existed since ancient times when I sent someone to assassinate the imperial officials? No, it depends on whether the person is doing it cleanly.
However, in general, doing this is destined to leave no room for anything!
Now is not the time to think about the murderer behind the scenes. Jia Cong pressed his anger that rose to an extreme and asked calmly: "How many assassins are there? How are the casualties here?"
"My subordinates are incompetent, sir, are frightened!" Zhong Yin replied in fear: "There are three assassins in total, killing one and two escaped. Both of them were injured on the back and forth. These two were still good at sword skills, but their water was excellent, so we could not see... Two sailors died, and the martial arts champion was seriously injured, and the rest were only slightly injured..."
"The two sailors who passed away asked if they had any family members, and wrote a thirty taels of pension. If they had no family members, they would be treated as burial expenses. After the rest went back, they would receive ten taels each... Take down the body of the remaining assassin and look at it again when they went back..."
Wu Zhuangyuan and others were grateful. They originally thought that the adults would punish him, but in fact, Jia Cong was useless to punish him at this time and was angry. He could not solve the problem. He had to calm down.
When dealing with subordinates, it is simple to say that kindness and power are used, but always the word "光" is the first. Qi Jiguang used to describe it as "光" as a ship, and kindness is the rudder, and they are also working hard enough.
After several days of sweating, especially when he was frightened and survived, Jia Cong also had cold sweats. No one was afraid of death. But one advantage was that his cold was almost healed, but his left arm was injured again, just a little bit away from his bones.
You Erjie bandaged the wound behind, and You Sanjie was also helping him. At this moment, she put on a cloak for him so that she would not be so naked that she would be laughed at.
Jia Cong saw a hundred households carrying two general flags and rushing towards this side with heavy and powerful steps. He gritted his teeth and insisted, and said softly: "You go back, I have something to do..."
The two women stopped in place hesitantly, with a hint of heartache between the two beautiful eyes, and tears still dripping from the corners of their eyes, but the next thing should not be seen by the woman. You Erjie cried and said, "Stop talking, we will do it when we go back."
Brother Wu San took them out and walked onto the gravel road. Sister You San walked for a while, put her hands on her hips and said, "I'm so like that, why are you doing serious business? Since you want to show off, then go by yourself!"
After saying that, he threw himself into You Erjie's arms and cried loudly. You Erjie moved her lips and gently patted her back.
"I'm late to save the lord! I'm sorry!" Han Baihu came close and knelt on one knee from the local area, saluted and did not dare to look up.
Jia Cong is now the military censor. No matter whether it is Zhenjiangying or Jiangbeiying, he will not offend him, but instead want to please him.
The ten soldiers in the Dashun camp were a small flag, five small flags were a general flag, two general flags belonged to one hundred households, and there were two general flags under the Han hundred households.
"Not too late, it's just right." Jia Cong sat on a chair and said lightly: "Who threw the mine? How did you come in? Where are the people in the water?"
"Whitei saw the signal flare and immediately clicked all the people in. The 100 households in the Caoyun River Channel of Yangzhou, Daying, Jiangbei. In order to prevent the assassins from escaping, the mines were thrown by the subordinates."
Jia Cong knew that the mines had existed very early and could explode in the water, but he didn't know how the effect was. After all, he had never personally tried it.
Yangzhou is one of the nine major census passes in the world and is also the six major cities of Shui from south to north, so it is naturally heavily deployed.
It was also the camp soldiers who defended outside the Shouxi Lake to please him. Han Baihu said nervously: "I am negligent, because the lord has not given orders, so the crowd here has not been evacuated. Those assassins must have been infiltrated like this..."
It was said that it was also a sign of shirking responsibility, but Jia Cong didn't care about this with him. After a moment, they salvaged two people. It turned out that an assassin was really killed and the mines were really powerful. Many of the soldiers in the south were sailors, familiar with the battle on the ship and equipped with water weapons, but there were fewer firearms.
Another assassin was the one who almost killed Jia Cong. He was lifted up by two general flags, kicked him brutally, knelt in front of Jia Cong, and cursed: "Dog official! People are scattered, and they don't want to ask something from the uncle!"
Jia Cong's eyes suddenly became vicious and vicious. Thousands of ways to slap people just came to his heart. However, the majestic and strong man had a slight black blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, and the blood was still stuck between his teeth: "Hahahaha..."
The scene became quiet.
Looking at the assassin who fell to the ground and died, Jia Cong took a deep breath, stood up and said, "Take back to the post station and ask someone to cut open their bodies and take a look!"
Han Baihu suddenly felt cold in his heart.
...
"Who is the assassin?"
"Who wants to kill him the most?"
"...It may not be like this, it is also possible that someone is secretly messing around..." Jaswen sighed: "But no matter who it is, this matter has become a big deal. The imperial censor, the imperial imperial sect, was killed during his recuperation. Not to mention the court's hurdle, from us, who can stand this method? The person behind the scenes is too stupid! I don't know which side he is on!"
"Sometimes the easiest method is the best... The most dangerous thing now is the prefect of Yangzhou. He was born with such a thing under his rule... It can be seen that the bones of our salt path are not easy to chew. Whoever touches them will die... Hehehe..." Yan Ming was laughing tremblingly, but he was a little worried.
Because Jia Cong is the victim now, and Dayi is on his side. At this time, no matter which official is, he will come out to support Jia Cong. At least on the surface, who can tolerate the imperial court's orders to take office and be assassinated? Isn't this infringement of the interests of the entire gentry class? No! It is a threat to their lives! How great!
Officials of all sizes, including Jaswen and Yan Ming, who were secretly hostile to Jia Cong, expressed condolences to Jia Cong's injuries. Basically, everyone gave gifts routinely. At this moment, they left the inn.
Jia Cong was assassinated, but there was nothing in the folk, but the entire Yangzhou city's officialdom seemed to have a magnitude nine earthquake! It is said that the Yangzhou prefect got up from his wife's quilt, and after hearing the news, he fainted!
"So...who is the assassin from?"
Miaoyu's jade hand was pressed on Jia Cong's shoulder, and he looked at the wound a few times, turned his head and his eyes were blurred.
"They did it very clean..." Jia Cong sneered: "I have all opened my stomach and found nothing... The people who want to kill me the most are nothing but those salt merchants and the people behind them. Since ancient times, they cannot escape collusion between officials and businessmen..."
"Will anyone deliberately fan the flames..."
"No matter who it is, after today, don't blame me for turning the sky in Yangzhou!" Jia Cong's mouth was cold, and this time he fell into trouble. "The salt administration is under the jurisdiction of the Jiangsu Department of the Ministry of Revenue, and now the agent is my person. Since there is no room for someone, from today on, I will not leave any room for you, and be a complete bad guy!"
