The rise of the poor

Chapter 1047 Ouyang Zi Shi's Black Hand

The Meridian Gate is the main gate of the Forbidden City. It is located on the north-south axis of the Forbidden City, facing the sun in the middle, and is located at Meridian, so it is called Meridian Gate.The city towers on the east, west and north sides are connected, encircling a square square, like three giant dragons embracing each other, with a magnificent and majestic momentum.

In this square square in front of the Meridian Gate, Zhu Ping'an's first trip to the imperial staff is about to begin.

Before the court rod was about to start, Ouyang Zishi made a move.

"Ahem, this gentleman of a hundred households, a little meaning is not a respect."

In an inconspicuous corner of the square, under the cover of Luo Longwen and others, Ouyang Zishi called Zhang Baihu, who was the head of the Jinyiwei Baihu who was in charge of the execution, and stuffed a 100 tael banknote into Zhang Baihu's palm. .

"Uh..." Zhang Baihu looked at Ouyang Zishi and was stunned.

Although Ouyang Zishi didn't know him, he knew Ouyang Zishi and Luo Longwen. He knew that they were both from the Yan Mansion, and he also knew that Ouyang Zishi and the others seemed to be at odds with Zhu Ping'an.

It was precisely because they knew that Ouyang Zishi and the others were from the Yan Mansion, and because they knew that Ouyang Zishi and the others were not dealing with Zhu Ping'an, Zhang Baihu was stunned when Ouyang Zishi came over with money.

Before the imperial staff was executed, it was normal for family members, relatives and friends to send money to the Jinyi guards they executed and beg them to show mercy, but before Zhu Pingan was executed, it was not normal for Ouyang Zishi to give themselves silver Yes.

Yang Jisheng impeached Yan Song, and Zhu Ping'an interceded for Yang Jisheng. If this is the case, the people in Yan's house should wish that Zhu Ping'an would be unlucky. Then why did Ouyang Zishi want to stuff himself with money for Zhu Ping'an before Zhu Ping'an was impeached by the imperial staff? What about pleading? !

Could it be that there is another secret? !Zhu Ping's intercession for Yang Jisheng came from Mr. Yan Ge? !

However, it doesn't make sense.

Zhang Baihu was stunned, like a monk Zhang Er -- he couldn't figure it out.

"This Zhu Ping'an is a coward. He dared to disobey the dictation of the sage. He really deserves to die. When the court stick comes, I will trouble Lord Baihu and your subordinates. The harder the stick, the better." If Zhu Ping'an is killed on the spot, Ouyang Zishi will repay him even more generously." Ouyang Zishi put the money into Zhang Baihu's hands, and ordered through gritted teeth.

Oh I got it.

Only then did Zhang Baihu understand why Ouyang Zishi gave him money. It turned out that he wanted to kill Zhu Pingan while he was in the court staff.

Zhang Baihu has been working as a court staff for more than ten years, and he is used to seeing people begging for mercy, this is the first time he has begged for money to do black hands.

but
You only have 100 taels of silver, which is how much you can double. Zhu Ping'an's mansion gave him 1000 taels of silver half an hour ago without blinking an eyelid.

Moreover.

The current celebrity in the palace, Eunuch Feng, has explained in advance that no matter who greets the court staff this time, no matter how he collects the money, this time the court staff can only be "beating", hold it high, and put it lightly. .

and.

My own upper peak, Mr. Zhang Qianhu, specially conveyed the password of my highest upper peak, Commander Lu, to make my subordinates pay attention this time.What does it mean to be careful, I still don't know what it means to be careful.

And ah.

Mr. Xu Jie, Xu Ge, who has been doing errands in the palace, seemed to be full and had nothing to do today. He wandered to the Jinyiwei Yamen and took a case that had been closed for an unknown number of years. It was a cold sweat that scared me, because I was the one who handled that case, and I also received a lot of benefits from it at that time.In the end, Mr. Xu Ge understood the situation and his back was soaked. When he thought it was over, Mr. Xu Ge stopped abruptly, and said lightly, saying that he had a student named Zhu Ping'an, let him Take good care of me, and then I pat my ass and leave.Elder Xu Ge's departure made him stupefied for a long time, and he didn't understand the purpose of Elder Xu Ge's visit until he received the order to carry out Zhu Ping'an's staff.

Besides, there is one last point.

That is, Zhang Baihu has been able to hold the court staff for more than ten years. It is not just because of his good luck and relationship.He can understand what it means.He knew that the Holy Majesty only punished Zhu Pingan this time, and did not mean to punish Zhu Pingan severely, let alone take Zhu Ping's life.Why?Because he was in charge of the court staffs of the three officials in this square in the morning, thirty court staffs, he could not remember it very clearly.The three of them were the first batch to intercede for Yang Jisheng, and the Holy Majesty ordered thirty court sticks to be struck.After the beating, the Holy Majesty issued a verbal order prohibiting pleading for Yang Jisheng, stating that those who violated it would be severely punished.As a result, Zhu Pingan committed a crime knowingly, violated the Holy Master's oral order, and interceded for Yang Jisheng. As a result, the Holy Master only ordered Zhu Pingan to be beaten with twenty court sticks.

Is this severe punishment?
This is lightened.

What does the above mean, Zhang Baihu, who is so good at observing words and expressions, can't understand it? !

Even if Eunuch Feng, Commander Lu, and Mr. Xu Ge didn't say hello, express, or hint, they would not play tricks on Zhu Ping'an.

Needless to say, Ouyang Zishi only paid a mere 100 taels of silver, which is incomparable to the 1000 taels of silver that Zhu Ping'an's mansion spent.

"Mr. Ouyang, what are you doing? Didn't you hit me in the face of someone Zhang? Don't worry, Mr. Ouyang. How should the court stick hit me? Zhang will save me."

Therefore, Zhang Baihu didn't accept the bank note from Ouyang Zishi, and stuffed the bank note back into Ouyang Zishi's sleeve, showing a flattering smile on his face.

After all, behind Ouyang Zishi is the elder Yan Songyan, if he takes money and fails to accomplish anything, it will not be easy to end.

It would be much easier if you didn't take cash.

Besides, relying on my more than ten years of practicing the court staff skills, when I hit the court staff later, I can guarantee that the movement of the court staff will be earth-shattering, and I will keep it so that Ouyang Zishi and others can't see any flaws.As for why Zhu Pingan was not killed by the rod in the end, it can be deduced from Zhu Pingan's fate and good physique.It's been [-] years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and only a few officials have been killed with the cane. Besides, it's only twenty court canes, so it's normal that people can't be killed.

Ouyang Zishi saw Zhang Baihu's flattery, and after hearing Zhang Baihu's words, he was very satisfied and put the bank note into his sleeve.Ouyang Zishi was not very willing to give up the 100 taels of silver bills. The 100 taels of silver bills were enough for him to drink several times of flower wine, but he gritted his teeth and bled profusely just for the sake of safety.

Now there is no need to spend money, and what you want can be achieved, so why not do it, anyway, Ouyang Zishi couldn't be more satisfied.

"Well, it's getting late, Zhang Baihu should execute the imperial staff quickly." Ouyang Zishi nodded in satisfaction, urging Zhang Baihu to execute the imperial staff quickly.

Zhang Baihu took the order and left.

Looking at Zhang Baihu's back, thinking that Zhu Ping'an would soon be beaten into a dead dog, Ouyang Zishi couldn't control the smile anymore, and his back molars were almost exposed.
