Chapter 157: Kong Ming's Wrath
Thank you friends Ma Yujie and Gu Ah for giving me another reward! Excited, haha!
It was the dog's big palm whip that Jiao Jiao raised since childhood. He really felt like the sky had collapsed. He cried twice, but there was no sound. He just looked ahead with a dull look, as if he wanted to see something carefully, but he seemed to see nothing.
But at this time, the eyes of the brothers beside him were looking at him with respect, but now they had turned into hatred. It was just because of his mistake that he killed so many brothers and even killed the master whom everyone followed for life.
However, the hatred look cannot kill people after all. Everyone in the Jiao family just froze there, listening to the sad and desolate cry of the old butler echoing in the wide court.
After hearing the news of Jiao Jiao's death, Zhuge Jin finally relaxed after a moment of dumbfoundedness. Jiao Jiao's death was part of his second brother's plan. Although his death was very unexpected, it was a pity. It was a very good ending.
At least the Jiao family will not be exterminated because of this case. Although Zhuge Jin also felt that his lord, who has always been kind to the people, would not be executed by the Jiao family. However, he would not easily release himself and some related people.
The head of the Jiao family died, at least the responsibility that Zhuge Jin bears was much smaller. Sure enough, when he looked up at his lord, Sun Ce nodded slightly to him. He allowed him to deal with the follow-up of the case.
In fact, for Sun Ce, the ultimate goal of pursuing this matter is to dismantle the Jiao family, which has some combat effectiveness. After all, this is a larger force that can gather nearly a thousand cavalry with just a little armed force.
If there is nothing wrong, it would be good that if someone makes trouble and colludes with their Jiao family, who knows what accident will happen? Now that the head of the Jiao family is dead, the Jiao family will no longer be a threat.
Jiao Jiao, covered by white cloth, was finally carried in by two officers. Looking at Jiao Jiao who was wearing a brand new purple-red silk long skirt, but his face was gray. Dozens of Jiao Jiao's drivers burst into tears.
Until a moment later, the sad people gradually calmed down. Zhuge Jin, who was instructed by Sun Ce, looked at Jiao Jiao and almost fainted from crying. The old butler of the Jiao family coughed lightly.
He comforted in a deep voice: "Master Jiao, please feel sorry for me! This matter has been settled in my official office. After that, you can sign and seal it in the documentary and return home. In addition to paying the brothers of the Bu family at a reasonable price, the rest can only be considered your family affairs.
At this moment, Zhuge Jin's meaning was very clear. The Jiao family only assumed the responsibility of destroying the fields and injuring people, and did not have to be responsible for the origin of the assassin. For the Jiao family, it was better to get such a result in such a major assassination case.
Although he had paid the life of the head of the family, the old butler of the Jiao family knew that the prefect must have made great efforts in this. He looked at Zhuge Jin with a little thanks and finally curled his crying.
As the old housekeeper of the Jiao family, of course, I understand what kind of things my subordinates are. The Jiao family drivers who were used to being accused of being plundered outside the Great Wall were unable to do anything when someone took the lead in provoking it.
What's more, this time he was acting misconduct, and he was even more involved in assassinating the Governor. However, the Jiao family was not charged with rebellion, and the government had already made a big fuss.
Whether it was the old housekeeper or the surviving drivers, they were all silent in a clear mind. No one wanted to fight for anything for their brothers who had died tragically under the arrow.
Under the instructions of the prefect, all the tied drivers were untied the ropes on their hands. Most people felt like they were escaping from death, and everyone was a little stupid and surrounded Jiao Jiao's body and choked.
The big palm whip called Dog'er was not close to everyone's position. After untiing the rope in his hand like he had forgotten his sadness, he staggered towards the outside of the yamen.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he cried out: "Master! Dog is sorry for you! You raised a dog, but the dog killed you! Master Dog is here to atone for you!"
After just shouting the big palm whip, his feet suddenly exerted force and thumped, hitting the stone lion at the entrance of the yamen. With this all-out hit, a huge crack suddenly opened in his head. It was red and white, splashing all over the floor.
His extremely strong body only twitched a little after it fell to the ground, and there was no movement again. Seeing that he was not alive, another person from the Jiao family committed suicide, causing the Jiao family who had just calmed down to burst out of the yamen again.
He cried around the big palm whip, no matter what, this was the most convincing boss everyone had ever believed in besides the master. Even though he killed the master this time because of his recklessness, he also paid the price of his life for his mistakes.
As the saying goes, no one will ever want to blame this dead person anymore, but everyone remembered the care and care of everyone for everyone.
After crying for the big palm whip, seven or eight more people in the drivers hit the head and died at the foot of the stone lion. All the people watching were exclaiming. If the rest of the people had not told each other, I was afraid that more people would hit the head and die.
The strong nature of the Jiao family shocked Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. They looked at each other solemnly, and both of them were secretly grateful: "Above the local area, the more united some people with already strength, the greater the harm they will be to the county!
Even if this time, these people did not make things difficult for the brothers and sisters of Jiao Jiao, and thus encountered such an unlucky thing as the governor assassinated. Their military gangster's inferiority was destined to be the next time, and they would also harm others at the right opportunity.
Just looking at the poor reputation of the Jiao family among the people, we can tell that they must have had similar bad deeds in the past. Maybe it was because of their secrets, or maybe it was because their hands and feet were very clean and they were not exposed on the spot.
But as long as such a thing happens, it may be unknown once or twice. But that piece of paper cannot contain the fire. No matter how secret their hands and feet are, they will always be seen or noticed by those who are interested. They will eventually be leaked by some related people.
Because such a thing is just a folk rumor, not only Zhuge Jin, but also Jiao Jiao, as the head of the family, may not be clear about it. But their old housekeeper must have known some of the contents.
If they were allowed to exist, and when Zhuge Jin felt something was wrong, I still don’t know how many weak people would be bullied and harmed by these people. This is really a group of black sheep that had to be eliminated.
Such a group of people will exist everywhere. To deal with them, of course, the sooner they are eliminated, the less threat to the people, the less."
After figuring it out, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who were already a little guilty about Jiao Jiao's death, no longer felt uneasy. After this trip to Kuaiji, Zhou Yu discussed with Sun Ce and vigorously strengthened the construction of the Spark Camp in his hands.
In addition, under the jurisdiction of the Jiangnan Army, a part of the supervision personnel has been added. The main purpose is to implement a more stringent supervision system for powerful scholars in various places or large households with a large number of servants.
After collecting conclusive evidence in the Spark Camp and cooperating with the yamen and military law offices in various places, thunderous attacks on the incidents of bullying the people in wealthy families, the civil happiness index of the Han Dynasty rose directly to an unprecedented level.
No one dares to act recklessly in their territory, and there are spies from the Spark Camp who are invincible. Those who commit crimes and commit evil deeds have truly understood a truth. It is not that they do not repay, but that the time has not come.
After dealing with some necessary things in Kuaiji County, Sun Ce was preparing to return to Jinling with the talents he found this time. However, he unexpectedly received another surprise news from Zhuge Jin and Xu Shu.
In the backyard of the prefect's mansion, I saw Zhuge Liang carrying his luggage and trying to escape. With the use of both soft and hard brothers Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Ren Kongming was unswerving, begging or sarcastic lotus, but he still forced him to the carriage on the return journey.
For Sun Ce, who was eager to eliminate Cao Cao and completely pacify the Han world, he did not have the time to play a game of visiting the three-way cottage with Kong Ming. At such a moment, it was even more impossible to put this super talent on the territory of Cao Cao or Yuan Shao.
Facing Zhuge Liang, who was already furious later, Sun Ce, who was also out of patience, left the prefect's mansion.
Looking at the same tall and handsome literati, he just said coldly: "Kong Ming! This Governor knows that you are invincible and have lofty ambitions! Of course you want to leave the Jiangnan Army, that is your freedom.
However, this Governor only has one requirement for you. If this Governor cannot see you tomorrow, he will remove your brother’s position as the prefect of Kuaiji! If he cannot see you the next day, he will remove your uncle’s position as the prefect of Yuzhang!
After that, if you don’t see you every day, then beat one of your family members to thirty! Everyone in your Zhuge family will be once their turn, and no one will miss it. And unless they are beaten to death, or until you appear!"
"You are shameless! You are despicable, you, are you still the governor of a country? You are simply a rogue!"
At this moment, even Xu Shu, who had always admired Kong Ming's Qi-raising Kung Fu, was surprised to see Zhuge Liang, who had always been calm, turned red with a fair and handsome face, pointed at Sun Ce in front of him and roared wildly. He no longer looked as handsome as Si Wen.
Faced with Sun Ce's trick to remove the fire from the root, no matter how smart Zhuge Liang is, there is no solution. Unless he is willing to be removed from the family, or let the whole family suffer with him and hate him to the core.
However, this is simply impossible. Who made not only his most beloved uncle but also his close brother work under his command? Not to mention the remaining relatives of the Zhuge family, who are nearly 200 people, are engaged in various professions in Jiangnan.
Even if Zhuge Liang yelled hoarsely, all he received was Sun Ce's indifferent smile.
That extremely relaxed look seemed to be saying to Zhuge Liang: "This is the case with this Governor. If you have the ability, Kong Ming will bite me!"
