These five detectives were taken into five abandoned houses by Gu Xining's people. After interrogation, in addition to asking about beating people into extorting money or bullying men and women, they also asked about the transfer of grain and rice.

But he didn't ask.

"You haven't cut out your tongue yet, have you?" Gu Xining realized that these people were evading the important and was ready to interrogate him again.

"The boss hasn't spoken, and we haven't taken action yet!"

Gu Xining walked back and forth a few steps, "First cut off one's tongue, then show it to the others and ask them if they want to be buried here or go home!"

After some intimidation, the other four agents were finally willing to talk about the transshipment of grain and rice.

The four people talked incoherently about some things, such as what the old man who cooked noodles at the street stall said, and how the workers were being deducted from their wages, and that the granary on the dock was full of bran brown rice, and the best rice was never sold directly in Bianzhou.

discharge.

Hearing this, Gu Xining thought they were lying, "There are obviously so many high-quality rice for sale in Bianzhou City, and the rice shop I looked at earlier had high-quality rice in it!"

"Grandpa, we don't dare to lie to you. These fine rice are all shipped from Beijing and Banzhu!"

"Just unloading and selling rice in Bianzhou doesn't reduce costs, doesn't it? Why do I have to go through so much trouble? Am I a fool to be a grandfather?"

The four policemen kowtow like they are pounding garlic, "Grandpa, if the fine rice is unloaded locally, it will not be sold at the same price as the rice in the capital. The rice sold in this rice shop is actually medium rice. Walking from the capital to Bianzhou this way

It becomes fine rice in one go!”

"Damn it, I've also eaten fine rice. How can I not recognize fine rice?"

"Grandpa, to be honest with you, even the emperor may not be eating fine rice. Real fine rice has never been sold!"

Gu Xining stood on the spot, and after a while he continued to ask, "Where is the fine rice that is paid tribute every year?"

"It is said that a big shot in the court got this, and sold it to the Yu Kingdom in the north!"

The brown rice in the Bianzhou granary was less than 500,000 shi, but the fine rice registered in the register was 1 million shi. In the end, even the emperor was not able to enjoy this million shi of fine rice.

"Have you ever seen real fine rice?"

The four detectives nodded repeatedly, "I got a small bag at the transfer office, but I didn't want to eat it. I took a few glances and sold it on the black market!"

"How much can it sell for on the black market?" Gu Xining was a little curious and wanted to confirm what the old man said.

"The price on the black market is 20% lower than the price in Mipu, but only we dare to sell it!"

The prices on the black market are cheaper than those in rice shops. The most ridiculous thing in the world is happening right in front of Gu Xining.

"By the way, the people of Yu State in the north are not used to eating corn and rice. Why do they buy high-quality rice? You'd better be honest!"

"Grandpa, we are telling the truth. People in the Yu Kingdom do not eat rice or corn, but horses do eat corn, and the better the corn, the better the endurance of the horse!"

A thought flashed through Gu Xining's mind, and he immediately asked, "Where do the people of Yu State get the rice coupons to buy high-quality rice? The amount of corn fed to horses is not comparable to what humans can eat! As far as I know, Yu State

I don’t have that much money! I can’t afford the hundreds of thousands of shi of fine rice every year to feed the horses!”

"We don't know about this, and no one dares to ask. You are a powerful person. If you don't even know about it, how can we little minions know about it?"

Gu Xining looked at the four of them and saw that they didn't seem to be lying, so he closed his eyes and said, "Cut out the tongue! Knock him out!"

Before the four detectives could beg for mercy and struggle, the four Jin Liangwei quickly cut off the tongues of the detectives, and then knocked them unconscious before they could scream.

The problem is no longer just the corruption of Caohe transshipment. What Gu Xining is most worried about is that someone is secretly sponsoring the enemy, and that the grain and rice business is used to make the people resentful of the court and the emperor.

It’s not just money, it’s life!

Gu Xining decided to go straight to the transfer envoy's office and meet with the transfer envoy for a while.

The transfer office of Bianzhou was located on a high ground on the south bank of the Bianhe River. It is said that this was to avoid flooding.

When Gu Xining led people to the bottom of the highland, he discovered that the highland was artificially piled up. He piled dozens of feet of earth and rocks on the flat ground, planted trees, and moved the yamen high up, like a temple.

Already.

There are twenty soldiers guarding the entrance, and there is an archway with the four characters "Integrity and Selflessness" written on it.

Seeing that Gu Xining was about to take someone in, the soldiers gathered around and said, "This is an important area for the transportation envoy. No unauthorized entry is allowed!"

Gu Xining took out his pocket card, "Jin Liangwei kills people, anyone who dares to stand in his way will die!"

The words had been spoken, but it was too late to take them back. Perhaps Gu Xining killed too many people. He originally asked Jin Liangwei to do something, but ended up killing people instead.

Everyone in Liang Dynasty has heard about Jin Liangwei’s deeds and knows that this is the emperor’s

The assassination team under the emperor has vicious killing methods, but not many people have seen it.

Especially when thirty-one people came all at once, claiming to be Jin Liangwei, this was too false.

"What kind of gangster dares to impersonate Jin Liangwei in broad daylight? Anyone who comes will be killed without mercy!"

The soldiers guarding the gate were not good at it either. They lined up in formation and beat gongs to call for reinforcements from all around.

Gu Xining saw birds escaping from the woods opposite, making a lot of noise, and knew that there were many guards here, but now the arrow was ready and had to be fired.

"How dare you attack Jin Liangwei! This is totally counter-intuitive! No one will be left alive!"

Gu Xining flew forward and pierced the leading guard's throat with a single strike of his sword. The rest of the Jin Liang Guards didn't waste any time and took out their own special weapons and went straight to the top of the mountain to kill.

Outside the archway, more and more people gathered, but the common people were not afraid of trouble and came to watch the fun one after another.

There were many people cheering, and Gu Xining suddenly had an idea and shouted, "We are ordered to inspect the transfer envoy's yamen. All the people have grievances and grievances, and take revenge if you have grievances!"

Originally, it was already a mistake to take action at the gate of the transfer envoy's office, but there was no way to remedy it. The only way was to make the matter bigger, and maybe there was still a glimmer of hope.

Gu Xining knew in his heart, and his subordinates also knew that once he could incite the people to get involved, it would be enough to say later that the people were boiling with resentment and attack the Yamen.

However, Gu Xining overestimated these common people. After shouting this sentence, everyone clapped their hands and applauded, but no one crossed the archway.

Now only those who survived had the right to speak. With bloodshot eyes, Gu Xining dodged the interception of several soldiers and headed towards the red official building at the top.

The rest of Jin Liangwei followed Gu Xining closely, abandoned these vulnerable soldiers, divided into two teams and surrounded the government office.

The door of this official office was open, and the sound of chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha came from inside. Gu Xining wondered if he had made a mistake, because he only heard someone talking inside.

"Sir, it's not good. A group of thieves are here! Brothers, we can't stop them!"

"Why are you panicking? With the blessing of Buddha, even if a thief comes, he will put down his butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately!"

It seemed that this was the right place. Gu Xining did not go through the main entrance for fear of an ambush. He climbed over the wall and entered, only to see a middle-aged man wearing a cassock and a bun sitting in front of an old monk and mumbling.

The old monk saw Gu Xining and smiled slightly, "The donor is very skilled, but it's a pity that he didn't go the right way! Now that you're here, let's have a cup of tea before leaving!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the teacup beside him towards Gu Xining. Gu Xining dodged sideways, and the outer edge of the teacup was embedded in the pillar.

"Master's martial arts are so superb, why do you want to help the evil tyrants and create so many karma?" Gu Xining walked forward warily.

"My Buddha is merciful. Everyone has karma. It is because of too much karma that I come here to do good deeds! The donor is too murderous. You might as well follow my example and become a monk and take refuge in my Buddha!"

The old monk popped out another prayer bead in front of him. Gu Xining couldn't dodge it and had to block it with his sword. The soft sword shook violently a few times and the prayer beads bounced into the floor tiles again.

"Master, if every sinner can convert to Buddhism and escape punishment, then wouldn't everyone in the world be able to kill people and set fires before becoming a monk? I think Master's murders are far greater than mine!"

At this time, the middle-aged man turned around and clasped his hands, "Why did you break into the transfer office today? If you are short of money or food, I can give you alms! But if you kill someone, you have to stay to atone for your sin!"

Buddha is tolerant and will surely save you!"

"Are you the transfer envoy? As an official of the imperial court, you actually don't wear official uniforms and turned this official office into a Buddhist temple. Do you know your guilt?"

"The Buddha is here to save the people of the world. Whether I wear something outside my body or not does not prevent me from saving the people of the world! If I have the Buddha in my heart, I don't have to have this official office!"

Gu Xining never expected that the transfer envoy sent by the imperial court would actually become a Buddhist believer, and he would do all kinds of bad things, and keep talking about saving the world.

"Let me ask you, do you know that there is not even a single grain of real high-quality rice in Bianzhou City? Rice shop merchants collude with the transshipment envoys to resell rice coupons to make huge profits!"

"I know it all, so I chant sutras and worship Buddha day and night! In order to eliminate my sins!"

This answer also surprised Gu Xining. He thought that the other party would deny it, but in the end, the fortune teller admitted it openly.

"In that case, I will take you back to the capital for questioning!"

The old monk jumped up from the futon and jumped in front of the transporter: "Don't be impudent in front of the Buddha! Don't hurt Mr. Xiao!"

Gu Xining refused to give up and swung his sword towards the old monk. The old monk clamped Gu Xining's soft sword in his hands and said, "Take Mr. Xiao and leave quickly!"

Several young monks came out together to hold Master Xiao, who was wearing cassocks, and walked out. As soon as they reached the door, they were intercepted by Gu Xining's subordinates.

The young monks were no match for Jin Liangwei and fell into a pool of blood within a short time.

The old monk shouted angrily and broke Gu Xining's soft sword, then slapped Gu Xining with both hands.

Gu Xining was too late to escape, and the clothes on his left shoulder had been beaten to pieces, so he had no choice but to abandon the broken sword and run out the door.

When the other Jin Liangwei saw the old monk chasing Gu Xining frantically, they swarmed up and greeted him with iron thorns, meteor hammers, short knives, one-handed axes and lime powder in their hands.

Although the old monk's martial arts skills were higher than those of each of them, he was no match for Jin Liangwei, a professional murderer, and was quickly knocked to the ground.

Mr. Xiao sat on the ground and cried loudly, "What an injustice! What an injustice! Master Huai'en, it was I who harmed you!"

"You have killed many people! This old monk is just your accomplice! Take him away! Everyone else will be killed without mercy!"

"You can't kill people at will! If you commit murder, you will be punished!"

"Haha, retribution, it's our turn to take retribution from your ancestors! I've killed enough people, and I'm not afraid of retribution!"

When Mr. Xiao was brought to the archway, everyone in the Yamen, from servants to other officials, was slaughtered. Jin Liangwei's actions were always clean.

I thought that the people would continue to watch the fun, but now they all knelt down towards Mr. Xiao, and a few bold ones threw stones and clods of earth at Gu Xining and the others.
