Chapter 1018: Attack from both sides (two updates in one)(2/2)

"The lower official has ordered people to transfer the files and documents of this case from Qingzhou. In addition, the owner of this matter has also sent people to relocate him to a proper place."

Cai Jing presented the file to Zhang Yue. Zhang Yue opened it and sneered: "This is really audacious and has no agenda! Where is this guy now?"

Cai Jingdao: "We are in Li Chengzhi's mansion!"

Zhang Yue said: "Take my post and inform the people in Kaifeng Prefecture! Anyone who disobeys orders and hides will be punished with the crime of harboring!"

Cai Que and Feng Jing still care about their past friendship, but as for Li Chengzhi actually daring to oppose them today... they are not afraid of what others say: a gentleman takes revenge ten years later, and a villain takes revenge from morning to night.

"yes."

"Come back! Take the file to Li Chengzhi's house and give him some advice!"



Huangzhou.

The fort is located on the Bajin Ridge east of Miaochuan City. The fort overlooks the Yellow River to the north, and is surrounded by natural moats on all sides. The roads are winding and the terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This fort was garrisoned by the Tibetan general Doropa. Doropa had three sons named Alingjie, Siduo Maling and Amen.

These three sons all have courage that no man can match.

After Wen Xixin's uncle and nephew were driven out of Miaochuan City by Ali Gu, Doropa, the leader of the local Tibetan tribe, took refuge with Ali Gu.

It was already after New Year's Eve, and it was snowing all over Huangzhou.

After drinking several bowls of highland barley wine, Doropa was about to put his arms around two women of his own tribe and go to bed when he heard a strange noise outside.

Doropa was very alert, and immediately pushed away the women on the left and right, walked to the lookout window, picked up the torch hanging on the wall, and shined it down the city!

But I saw a long team of mules moving forward on the top of the mountain.

"It turned out to be a caravan from Hezhou to Miaochuan!"

Doropa smiled.

After the Song Dynasty established a market exchange in Hezhou, the Song Dynasty envoy Li Xian made a blood-based alliance with the leaders of the Tibetan people in the Qing and Tang Dynasties, forming a three-chapter agreement.

1. Do not attack the caravans of the two countries.

Second, the caravan that has obtained the passage order can travel unimpeded through the other party's country.

Third, you must not disguise yourself as a caravan for smuggling or hide prisoners who have violated the contract.

Li Xian made a bloody alliance with the leaders of the Tibetan tribes, and they even killed a Tibetan girl by throwing stones to make an agreement. Doropa was also present at that time.

Over the years, various Tibetan tribes have benefited greatly from trade with the Song Dynasty, and the Tibetan tribe leaders have made a lot of money through trade.

Many leaders of the Tibetan tribes in the Qing and Tang dynasties were engaged in second-hand business. They bought goods from Khotan, Uighurs, and Xixia, and then sold them to the Song Dynasty.

Or they could buy goods from the Song Dynasty and sell them to Khotan, the Uighurs, and Xixia.

The leaders of the Tibetan tribe all have shares in the caravan.

"He's going to Mochuan City."

Doropa immediately did not stop him and said to the third son Amon who was guarding the city: "Let these people in! Ask again if there is any drink?"

Amon, who was on the top of the city, interrogated him and felt that it was quite normal. The caravan from Hezhou to Miaochuan only made one trip every two or three days. The leading merchant was also an acquaintance who often visited the city. Today, due to heavy snow, he entered the city later than usual.

It's also understandable.

It seems that the number of people in this caravan is 30% more than usual.

But Amon didn't pay much attention.

There was a young man in the caravan below the city with eyes like an eagle. His name was Wang Fan, and he was the son of Wang Junwan.

Wang Junwan made many military exploits in Xihe, but he was quite greedy for money. He privately borrowed tens of thousands from merchants to trade with the Tibetan tribe. As a result, Sun Jiong, the deputy transshipment envoy, reported it to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue was furious when he heard about it. When he was in Xihe, he ordered repeatedly that all soldiers and horses on Xihe Road were not allowed to do business. Wang Junwan knowingly violated other laws and orders.

In addition, Wang Junwan had always been close to Wang Shao when they were in Xihe. Zhang Yue, who has a very good memory, suddenly remembered the old accounts.

As the saying goes, old and new grudges were settled together, Zhang Yue immediately demoted Wang Junwan to three levels with severe punishments, and was directly promoted from the deputy general manager of troops and horses to the jurisdiction of the prefecture.

Wang Fan was also implicated because of his father's affairs. Originally, Wang Jun had accumulated many meritorious services to support Wang Fan, but in the end, Zhang Yue wiped out this treatment.

Wang Fan was in trouble, but Wang Hou, as Wang Fan's childhood friend, gave him a hand and recommended him to Zhang Kai. When Zhang Kai saw Wang Fan, he thought he was a general and asked him to serve in the army to forgive his father's sins.

This time Zhang Kaixue attacked Huangzhou at night, and Wang Gan, who wanted to avenge his previous sins, volunteered to be a vanguard and hid in the team.

Seeing the gate of Fange City slowly opening, Wang Fan and several of his dead men immediately sneaked into the city.

The Tibetan soldier wrapped in a sheep's coat grinned at the caravan with great enthusiasm. There was also a Tibetan soldier who handed Wang Fan the sheepskin bag on his back and made a drinking gesture to him, asking him to drink.

Order some strong wine to drive away the cold.

Looking at the hospitable Tibetan people, Wang Fan took the sheepskin bag with one hand and flipped it over in the other hand to reveal a sharp short blade.

In an instant, there was a flash of blood.

The Tibetan soldiers guarding the city gate had their throats slit by the dead soldiers led by King Cut. Amen, who was standing on the top of the city, felt something strange. When he looked down the city, an arrow shot out of nowhere in the cold night and hit the target.

His eye sockets.



In Li Chengzhi's house, Cai Jing was left alone for two hours.

Cai Jing also laughed. As the secretary of the Central Committee, he was responsible for the household affairs. Even if he went to visit the prime minister's home, the other party would never dare to let him wait for so long.

After a long time, Cai Jing just met Li Chengzhi.

"I've seen the Prime Minister!" Although Cai Jing had waited for so long, he didn't look shy at all.

Li Chengzhi said: "Yuan Chang, it's so late. I still need to rest. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Cai Jing smiled and said: "Xiang Ji speaks so straightforwardly, do you know who Cai is here for?"

Li Chengzhi sneered and said, "Besides Zhang Xianggong, I don't know if Li has any other connections with Yuan Chang."

Cai Jingdao: "Prime Minister Ji looks down on me. But I often hear Mr. Zhang say that there are many talents in the New Party, and Prime Minister Ji is the one he admires the most."

Li Chengzhi said: "Is this really true? I can't afford it."

Cai Jing handed the dossier to Li Chengzhi and said, "I would like to ask Prime Minister Ji to take a look at it."

Li Chengzhi, who had looked proud just now, suddenly changed his expression. Cai Jing said: "This family actually took the courage of a leopard and went to Beijing to beat the drum."

"After Mr. Zhang heard about this, he specifically asked me to intercept the family and transfer the files on the case from Qingzhou."

After hearing this, Li Chengzhi immediately lost all his momentum and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang. I will definitely be able to discipline my dogs in the future."

"I, Li Chengzhi, can't thank you enough."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "He asked me to come and tell Prime Minister Ji that he had stopped the matter. He has already taken care of this family."

"I talked with them. Death is like a lamp going out, and it's useless to worry about it. So I gave them a large sum of money, which is enough for them to have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives."

"Ji Xiang, you see, this is not a big deal!"

Li Chengzhi pondered for a long time, and then said: "What does Mr. Zhang want me to do for him?"

Cai Jingdao: "No need to do anything, just make friends! Now Princess Zhang manages finances, and Prime Minister Ji is in charge of finances. We can complement each other if we are in the same boat."

Li Chengzhi pondered for a moment, glanced at the file in his hand and handed it back to Cai Jing. He took a deep breath and seemed to have made some kind of decision: "The matter of serving the law is the prime minister's lifelong effort. Li has been greatly favored by the prime minister, so he

You can't give in even half a step! Yuan Chang, you don't understand. When a man receives kindness from others, he should dissect his liver and gallbladder and offer it as a sacrifice. This method of fighting is more serious than the lives of Li's whole family."

"As long as I, Li Chengzhi, am here, I can't change a single word of the military law!"

Cai Jing reacted upon hearing this.

Li Chengzhi said sadly: "Yuan Zhang, I have made up my mind. Tomorrow I will tie up the dog and go to Kaifeng Mansion to collect the punishment! This matter was caused by my lax discipline and I should have deserved my punishment long ago! I really regret it! I regret it!"

Hearing this, Cai Jing looked at Li Chengzhi and cupped his hands and said, "I really admire Mr. Cai! I'll see you in Kaifeng Mansion then!"
