As mentioned earlier, these soldiers were carefully selected by Zhu Di from the various guards. Their abilities are different, either they are excellent in martial arts, or their ability to hide and search is far superior to ordinary people...
Moreover, after Zhu Song's three-day systematic training, his own abilities have become diversified. Although he can't compare with Jin Yiwei who has been training all year round, he has high plasticity.
Let these one hundred elite soldiers do careful work, although there is a possibility of exposure, the information collected may not be collected by Jin Yiwei, this method is feasible.
Moreover, this method quickly played the role it should have.
By the evening of this day, some soldiers sent news that Zhang Duo, led by one hundred soldiers from one hundred households of the Thousand Households of Qishan County, had already camped outside Fufeng County in the name of strengthening the defense of Fufeng County, and would enter the city tomorrow.
Looking at the information on the table, Zhu Song couldn't help frowning, and asked the soldier, "Are there any other counties?"
The soldier said: "Not yet, but according to the news that Xiao Xiao heard, this is the fifth time they have come here in half a month, and they have returned with full rewards every time."
"You really think of Fufeng County as a cash cow!" Zhu Song sneered.
The soldier seemed to have remembered something, and continued to report: "My lord, it is said that the one who often cooperates with them is Lu Qianhe, a criminal wanted by the imperial court!"
"Lu Qianhe?" Hao Fenglou touched his chin and said, "Why does this name sound so familiar?"
The soldier said: "My lord, in the 26th year of Hongwu, what happened in Yingtian Mansion shocked the court. The massacre of Xie's clan, Minister of Rites, was committed by Lu Qianhe."
"You mean Mr. Xie's family of 36 people was killed by this surname Lu?"
Zhu Song frowned, he did know about this, the massacre of killing the family at that time shocked all the officials of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, Xie Tong was the second-rank official at that time, and he was also the head of the Ministry of Rites. These court officials were killed, and all the 36 members of the family were killed except for the child who had just given up.
Such a major case was hanged by Zhu Yuanzhang in the Criminal Ministry at that time, and it was listed as an important case that must be arrested!
But eight or nine years have passed, and Lu Qianhe is still at large, without even being caught.
"It's him?" Zhu Song said: "This king remembers that Master Xie was a close friend with King Zhou when he was alive, and that child was adopted as a foster son by King Zhou, so he took him with him to raise him. Is this news reliable?"
"Reliable!" The soldier nodded.
"Then treat this guy as the first fish you catch!" Zhu Song said with a pause.
"Then, do you want to report to His Royal Highness King Zhou?" the soldier asked.
"Let's report!"
Zhu Song's eyes flashed coldly, and he said: "The child Zhong'er was very young, and this king even hugged him! If that child can come over, this king will have more fun!" (To be continued continued.)
Chapter 199 What Happened Yesterday
The next day, Zhu Song was about to go to Famen Temple, but happened to bump into Mu Su who came to ask Zhu Song for peace.
Zhu Song looked at Mu Su with a smile and said, "Mu Su, why did you come so early?"
Mu Su said: "Your Majesty, the lower officials have received news that this morning, Zhang Duo of the Hundred Households of the Thousand Households Office of Qishan County led his soldiers into the city to change defenses."
Zhu Song said with a smile: "Why, you also received the news?"
"Really?" Mu Su frowned, and couldn't help asking: "My lord, you already knew the news?"
"Yeah!" Zhu Song nodded, and said, "Yesterday, when they arrived outside Fufeng County, I knew about it, but I didn't understand who gave the order to make the soldiers of these counties and counties change their defenses every three days. once?"
Mu Su said: "My lord, the order from the Fengxiang Mansion is: During this critical period, in addition to the soldiers from the Fufeng County Guard, the surrounding counties and counties will send a group of soldiers from one hundred households to be stationed in Fufeng County every three days."
"Hmph, the rotation on duty may seem very rigorous, but in fact it has fattened up batches of corrupt officials!" Zhu Song said with a cold snort.
Mu Su naturally understood what Zhu Song meant, but they would not have participated in corruption cases like this before without the order of Long Live, but now...
"My lord, do you want to send officials to watch them?" Mu Su asked.
"No need!" Zhu Song waved his hand and said, "Let's wait and see, I want to see how corrupt these soldiers of our Ming Dynasty have become."
……
The lively places in Fufeng County can be roughly divided into Dongshi and Xishi.
This east market is a place for buying and selling daily necessities, vegetables, meat, etc. There are relatively more inns and restaurants here; as for the west market, most of the land is sundries, as well as shops selling clothes, cloth, and jewelry.
But today's West Market is not lively, not only the West Market, but also the East Market.
The two long streets, the shops and street stalls for buying and selling, seem to have shrunk by half at once, and there are not even many pedestrians and ordinary people on the streets.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and even the smell of blood from yesterday remained.
Fufeng County has never seen such a blatant fight since its history. Forty or so strong men were killed and injured, and the common people were afraid to go to the streets.
"Hey, the situation seems to be wrong today?" Zhang Duo was born with a short stature and a wicked eyebrow. If he added a few strands of beard around his lips, he would look like a big rat.
"Brother Duo, do you feel the same way?" Zhang Duo was followed by his confidant named Wang Ke.
Contrary to Zhang Duo, this Wang Ke is not only tall and thick, but also has an extremely rough face, which makes him follow Zhang Duo, and is often mistaken for him as a hundred households, and Zhang Duo as a small follower.
"You fucking think I'm a fool?" Zhang Duo glared at Wang Ke, and said, "I've got eyes."
"Brother Duo, that's not what my younger brother meant." Wang Ke's face turned into embarrassment.
"Okay, don't talk about it, I'm annoyed, I don't blame you!" Zhang Duo waved his hand, and said: "It's also strange, it was agreed to meet in the camp yesterday, but Lu Qianhe didn't Come on. And looking at the situation in the city today, it seems that something extraordinary happened yesterday!"
"Brother Naduo, do you want to ask in the yamen?" Wang Ke asked carefully.
"Why go to the yamen?" Zhang Duo said: "There are so many businessmen, there must be someone who knows? Just ask them."
"Hey, Brother Duo, you're smart!" Wang Ke slapped his head and ran over to a wonton stall, wiping the bench next to him graciously.
"Yo, Mr. Jun, who are you?" The owner of the wonton stall was a lean middle-aged man, seeing a business coming, he greeted him with a smile on his face.
Zhang Duo sat on the bench and looked up at the middle-aged man: "Two bowls of Chaos!"
"Okay, Mr. Jun, wait a moment!" The boss responded, and at the same time quickly started to put the wontons into the pot.
After a while, the boss came back with two bowls of wonton.
"Boss, in the past there were so many people here, why are they a little depressed today?" Wang Ke asked after taking Chaos.
"You two military lords, you don't know something!" The boss seemed to be familiar with him at first glance, and he immediately regained his energy when he heard Wang Ke's words, and said incessantly: "At noon yesterday, the little one..."
"More than 30 people were killed in the street!" Zhang Duo and Wang Ke's eyes almost popped out.
"Hey, not only that, but he also took that person named Zhang Peng away!" The boss finally clapped his palms and said, "It's really a relief! Then Zhang Peng didn't do this once or twice at our place. Well, to kill them this time, that young master really did a good deed..."
"Okay, this is wonton money!" The rest of the words were not nutritious, so Wang Ke simply paid the money and left.
