Chapter 135 Never tolerate adultery!

Jia Heng put the fragrant tea in his hand on the small table, smiled, and said, "I don't know how the former Chang'an Jiedu envoy respected him? He trained a loyal, courageous and diligent general like Mr. Huang for the court."

Huang Tai smiled and said: "The old general's name is Li Li. He was transferred to Guizhou by Li Butang six years ago to suppress the chieftain's rebellion. Now he has been promoted to the commander of Guizhou's capital due to his meritorious service."

In the provinces of Chen and Han, the chieftains of Guizhou were also rebellious and uncertain, so the imperial court selected generals from the Gyeonggi area to transfer and transfer.

Jia Heng showed respect and said: "If there is a chance, Jia should pay a visit to this old general."

Seeing that Huang Tai's expression softened a little, Jia Heng turned around and said: "Listen to what Master Huang said just now, Master Huang also joined the army because of bandits raging in the village back then?"

Huang Taidao: "At that time, during the Longzhi period, there were many bandits and bandits in Chang'an County. The county recruited brave men from the countryside to suppress bandits and arrest robbers..."

Jia Heng patiently listened to Huang Tai's recounting of the past. You can't talk about this kind of thing by yourself. The most important thing is to listen. After listening to Huang Tai's speech, he was promoted to the general banner officer because he was cut three ranks. , in high spirits.

When Huang Tai recalled the past, he also had a happy expression on his face.

Jia Heng praised: "Loyal and loyal, guarding his hometown, Mr. Huang is really a reputable hero."

Huang Tai quickly suppressed the complacency on his face, and said, "Lord Jia is absurd."

He didn't know why he had such a happy conversation with this young man just now, but he just saw the young man who was "arrogant and domineering" and "angry in fresh clothes" staring at him with that kind of scorching inquiry and respectful eyes. Couldn't help it, and said something that was rarely proud of him when he was young.

In fact, this is human nature. If someone listens to your bragging with scorching eyes, it can greatly satisfy their vanity.

Jia Heng sighed, and said: "Twenty years later, the bandits in Chang'an County are harassing the place again. Mr. Huang guards the peace of Chang'an County. It is true that the original intention has not changed, and it has not diminished."

Huang Tai's old face became hot when he was told, he waved his hands, and said with great emotion: "To tell the truth, my lord, if it wasn't for the Ministry of War's strict order not to move the guarding soldiers rashly, a certain family must have wiped out those bandits!"

Jia Heng was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "Master Huang, do you know why the officers and soldiers have repeatedly suppressed and arrested those thieves and bandits who heard the news and fled. This rumor... who revealed it?"

Huang Tai's complexion changed when he heard this, and he looked at the young man in amazement.

Jia Heng looked serious, and said: "Your Majesty Huang, don't worry, I am now in command of the Jin Yiwei. This time I am here not only to suppress the bandits, but also to investigate this matter. The thousands of troops in the Beijing camp have nothing to do with it." The gangsters made them go away after hearing the news twice. Who is acting as an eyeliner for the bandits? Cuihuashan bandits robbed merchants of their goods, obtained silk, jade, rice and other stolen goods, and where did they sell them? Who is running for it? Who is making things convenient for the thieves to eat, clothe, shelter, and go in and out of the county to buy goods? This official is here to investigate the person who colluded with the thieves!"

When Jia Heng said this, he looked aggressively at Huang Tai, who was frightened, and said in a concentrated voice: "Master Huang, you know, I thought it was Master Huang at first!"

Huang Tai's complexion changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice: "Master Jia, it is definitely not a lowly job! If a lowly job colludes with bandits, you will die!"

Jia Heng waved his hand, smiled slightly, and said: "Master Huang, don't panic. After talking in detail just now, I think it is unlikely that a hero like Mr. Huang did it. The previous doubts were only that Mr. Huang did it. Chang'an garrison, Master Huang is really ignorant of what I said earlier?"

Huang Tai's complexion changed for a moment, and his heart was struggling violently.

The smile on Jia Heng's face faded, and he said in a deep voice: "Master Huang, don't worry, no matter who is involved, I will definitely investigate to the end, even if he is a student of my Jia family, he will never condone traitors!"

The last few words sound like gold and stone, killing and cutting.

Cold sweat broke out on Huang Tai's back, until now, facing this young nobleman, Huang Tai had a clear understanding in his heart, why did he become a fourth-rank military general before he was a weak crown.

Seeing that Huang Tai's complexion was still tangled and he couldn't make up his mind, Jia Heng fueled his anger again, and said with a sneer: "Master Huang may not know that just a few days ago, this group of bandits colluded with the chief of Ningguo and murdered Jia. Jia and his generation are like fire and water!"

"My lord Jia, I'm humbled... I have to report back." Huang Tai met the young man's oppressive gaze, gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice.

Finally, under Jia Heng's "both soft and hard" verbal offensive, the psychological defense collapsed.

Jia Heng's gaze softened, and he said, "Master Huang, just say what you want."

Huang Tai suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and said: "This matter has to start from a year ago."

Fifteen and ten, tell the whole story.

After a long time, Jia Heng's face was gloomy, and he said solemnly: "It really is him!"

Seeing this, Huang Tai heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Yun Jiedu is now running several grain and cloth shops in the city, all of which sell silk from the robbed merchants. See, there was a trouble once, but it was suppressed by Yun Jiedu."

Jia Heng frowned and said, "Master Huang, do you have any other evidence?"

Huang Tai smiled wryly and said: "This matter is so secretive, it's a matter of family and life, how can a humble job collect evidence? But it's impossible for the two families to have letters. By the way, Cuihua Mountain has letters or account books from Yunguang, Bandits and others. Of course, maybe there is one in Master Yun's residence."

"Cuihua Mountain." Jia Heng's eyes froze,

Of course, he couldn't get the account books and letters from Yunguang Mansion, but he could try the ones from Cuihua Mountain.

Moreover, Yun Guang is a fourth-rank military officer. If he wants to take it down, he needs to communicate with the capital. Of course, he can take him down in advance.

"Master Huang, after the bandits in Cuihua Mountain are suppressed, we can obtain evidence, and then I will take down this Yunguang." Jia Heng said in a low voice.

Huang Tai became very anxious when he heard the words, and said: "If you don't take him, Master Jia's army advance will be reported to Cuihua Mountain. How can we suppress the bandits?"

Maybe he shouldn't have believed this young man who was only a few years older than his own son. As the old saying goes, he has no hair on his mouth and can't do things well.

Jia Heng said calmly: "I have already made a plan for this matter, and I have to trouble Mr. Huang to cooperate."

Huang Tai was puzzled and asked, "How to cooperate?"

After thinking for a while, he said with a troubled expression: "Master Jia, there is no written statement from the Ministry of War, and soldiers under the command of humble ranks dare not go deep into Cuihua Mountain. If there is a mistake in the county, even meritorious deeds will become crimes."

Jia Heng said: "Master Huang doesn't need to send troops to the deep mountains. I will pretend to be merchants, lead some old and weak people, and conduct business in a mighty way. I will lure some of them to come out to plunder, and I will select elite soldiers and go straight to the bandit's lair!"

"What if they ignore it?" Huang Tai frowned and asked in a concentrated voice.

Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "They will pay attention to it, firstly I have few soldiers, secondly I will disclose the news to Yunguang, Yunguang will definitely report to the Cuihua bandits, and then they will use their tricks and try to ambush me. "

Just now he almost humiliated Yunguang, he must not be able to bear it, and wanted to report to the Cuihua bandits.

Huang Tai was shocked when he heard the words, and felt that with Yun Jiedu's temperament, he might really be able to report the news, and then said: "But my lord only has [-] soldiers, and in a blink of an eye, nearly half of them will be divided. How can this be done?"

Jia Heng looked at Huang Tai with shining eyes, and said: "This requires Master Huang's full assistance. Please also send four hundred soldiers under your command to ambush in the rear. Yun Guang must not let Yun Guang know about this matter, otherwise he will be vigilant." , this will not happen.”

In fact, the in-and-out strategies are somewhat complicated. Generally, the more complicated the strategy, the more delicate the execution is, and the more error-prone it is.

But there was no way, because he and Cai Quan had few troops on this trip, if they didn't send out a group of bandits, they would go directly into the mountain to attack the bandits' lair in Cuihua Mountain.

It's very easy to do it. Take hundreds of people with exhausted soldiers and run tens of miles away. They will be stationed on the stone wall of the mountain village, and then all the bandits in Cuihua Mountain who "defend their homeland and share the same hatred" will wait for their work...

Hearing this, Huang Tai calculated the pros and cons in his mind, and said: "If it's the nearest fork, it's not a big problem to transfer 400 people from humble positions, but there must be no mistakes."

If he succeeds, everyone will be happy, but if he loses his troops, he... will be dismissed from office.

Jia Heng said with a big reward in his eyes, "Master Huang is really a man! There is a time difference between us and the day after tomorrow, so I will leave it to Master Huang."

"But Bandit's Nest... Your Excellency knows?" Huang Tai frowned.

Jia Heng said: "Jingli has found out its details, and its location is not bad."

He asked Qu Lang to act on him to lure the enemy soldiers, and he would lead the elite soldiers of the headquarters,

"As for all strategies, it is up to people to plan and make things up to heaven."

Then Jia Heng discussed the specific details with Huang Tai, and then they split up.

Time flies, and before you know it, night falls.

As soon as it was dark, Yun Guang sent servants to the barracks to summon Jia Heng and Cai Quan to the house for a banquet. In name, it was regarded as a clean-up for the benefactor and the leader of the Beijing camp. Cai Quan went to the banquet.

In addition to the two generals from the Jiedu mansion to accompany the wine, Yun Guang even invited a few women from Baihualou to accompany the wine.

Yunfu, in the flower hall——

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, the atmosphere gradually became less rigid and dignified than before.

In particular, Cai Quan sometimes teased and laughed with the girls in the brothel, causing Yun Guang and the generals to laugh.

As the wine was getting hotter, Jia Heng's attitude towards Yun Guang became "gentle" at the right time, and he said lightly: "Yun Jiedu, our army will march in the future, please be sure to prepare all the military supplies."

While urging him to drink with a smile, Yun Guang flashed a sneer in his heart. As expected, a side branch usurped the heir apparent, and the villain got his wish. His heart moved, and he said tentatively: "The thieves are cunning, the son should not underestimate the enemy."

Jia Heng glanced at Cai Quan out of the corner of his eye, and saw that his big hand was wandering in the chest of the brothel woman who was serving and drinking. He was very happy, picked up the wine cup, took a sip of the wine, seemed to be choked, coughed a few times, and put it on his face. He waved his hand and took the handkerchief from the woman accompanying him. .

When Cai Quan received the "signal" from Jia Heng, his heart skipped a beat, and he laughed and said, "Yun Jiedu, our Master Jia has a plan in mind and has a plan to defeat the enemy!"

Yun Guang was startled when he heard the words, but he pretended to be worried and said, "Young Master Jia, what's the plan?"

Jia Heng raised the wine cup, waved his hands, and said with a straight face, "It's a strategy, but how can I tell outsiders, let's not talk about it."

Yun Guang's heart trembled, and he thought to himself, is there really any plan?

But seeing the young man on the other side keeping his mouth shut, Yun Guang didn't want to ask more questions, so as not to get suspicious, he absent-mindedly accompanied the wine.

When the banquet was over, Yun Guang's face became gloomy, and he said to a chunky one of the two generals: "Chen Cheng, go and watch them."

When Na Ya was about to leave, Yun Guang's eyes flickered fiercely. This time, no matter what good tricks this kid has, he has already passed the wall ladder!

If he doesn't report the previous humiliation, he vows not to be a human being!
