Let’s talk about the Xinyang County government office. After the Yiyang Gang sent this group of bandits, and after what happened in the afternoon, County Magistrate Jiang was very angry and got angry in the office, “What do they mean? Are they demonstrating against me?”
Jiang Hong volunteered and said, "Master Magistrate, how about I teach them a lesson and let them see what we are capable of. The Yiyang Gang, I think they are just a bunch of rabble."
Zhang Yamen said: "Sir, why are you angry? Officer Qian and Gang Leader Guo also have good intentions. Now that the banditry has been eliminated, isn't it a good thing?"
Jiang Hong said: "Zhang Yamen, what do you mean?"
Zhang Yamen asked: "What's wrong with me?"
Jiang Hong asked: "From that time when money came to the Yamen, you always greeted him with a smile and kept saying good things about him. Did you accept his benefits?"
Zhang Yamen retorted: "You! You don't want to slander me! I am just telling the facts from the perspective of an old Yamen servant from Xinyang County. If it weren't for the Yiyang Gang and Qian Yuanwai's intervention this time, the bandits would be caught. . Now without these robbers, the people of Xinyang can live a peaceful life again. Isn't this a good thing? Besides," Yamen Zhang glanced at Jiang Zhixian, who was still angry, and said flatteringly: "This time we caught the robbers. Bandit, your Excellency can also report it to the court and get a reward. From now on, I will write a strong mark on your political achievements."
After Jiang Zhixian heard this, he stared at Yamen Zhang and said with a smile: "Speaking of robbers! Yamen Zhang, you should explain to me how you knew and didn't report it!"
Jiang Hongying said: "Yes! Since you convinced that Zhang Haiwei, shouldn't you report to the Yamen? Why did the Yiyang Gang know about it?"
Regarding such a question, Zhang Yamen seemed to have been prepared for it and said: "Oh! In fact, when I was searching, that person came to me on his own initiative. Speaking of him, he didn't want to do such shady things anymore, but he had no choice. , but that gang of gangsters kept threatening and tempting him, and he couldn't get away. So, he came to see me secretly and told me that I was willing to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. At first, I wanted to report to our yamen, but I was afraid that this was the plan of the bandits. , to lure us into taking the bait. So I thought of a compromise. Guo, the leader of the Yiyang Clan, has great martial arts skills and awe-inspiring justice, so I told him about the matter. When Guo, the leader of the Yiyang Clan, heard this, he immediately stood up and struck a blow. With the clues provided by that person, we captured that group of people in one fell swoop, which has done a lot of harm to our Xinyang County!"
Seeing what Zhang Yamen said vividly, Jiang Hong said angrily: "Zhang Yamen, you are afraid that others will take your credit."
When Zhang Yamen heard this, he showed a contemptuous expression and said: "I don't know whether I want to take the credit or not, but it's better than some people who came to the county government and held a high position but didn't accomplish anything big." Then he took a look. Jiang Hong glanced disdainfully at the master next to Jiang Zhixian, Zhu said.
"You!" Jiang Hong gritted his teeth angrily!
Jiang Zhixian said word by word: "Okay! Lao Zhang, you did a good job! I will definitely report it to the court and give you a reward."
Zhang Yamen resisted and said: "There are no rewards or no rewards. They are all doing things for the people." However, his uncontrollable smile betrayed him, making Jiang Hong's face full of disgust.
Jiang Zhixian said: "Old Zhang, you go and do your work first. At this time, I have made my own decision."
"Okay, sir." Zhang Yamen accepted the order and left. After leaving the door, he even sang a little tune.
After Zhang Yamen left, Jiang Hong said angrily: "Uncle, look at him, he looks like a villain!"
Magistrate Jiang now calmed down and said, "Ah Hong, take good care of these bandits. Don't make any mistakes this time."
Jiang Hong took the order: "Yes! However, uncle, haven't all these thieves been caught? What are you still afraid of?"
Jiang Zhixian said: "There are two more people. The boy and the man in black at that time, these two have not been arrested yet."
Zhu said at this time: "Yes, according to what your Excellency said before, these two should be the core figures of that group of bandits."
Jiang Hong murmured: "Why didn't you say anything just now? Now you're talking. It's an afterthought."
Jiang Zhixian scolded: "Go to work. Account for the people under your command." After Jiang Hong left, Jiang Zhixian asked Zhu: "Master Zhu, what do you think now?"
Zhu Shuo analyzed: "Xiao Wu said that he saw the Yiyang Gang dispatching troops yesterday, and they should have gone to arrest this group of bandits? But why were there two groups of troops, and they went separately. If Guo Renjie went To catch bandits, what did Guo Zixiong and his gang do?"
Jiang Zhixian said: "I was also worried about this matter just now. They will not send out two groups of troops for no reason." Jiang Zhixian raised his hand and rubbed his temples. Just by raising his hand, he knocked a box on the table to the ground.
Zhu said he picked up the box, handed it to Jiang Zhixian, and asked: "Master Jiang, this box is so gorgeous, what does it contain? I have kept it here for the past two days."
Jiang Zhixian looked at the box and said: "It's not a good thing. It's just the account book that I brought when the money came that day."
"Ledger? In such a gorgeous box?"
Jiang Zhixian snorted coldly, "Huh! Of course it's useless to store the account books, but there is a pair of jade thumb rings inside!" Then he opened the box, put the account books aside, and opened the mezzanine of the box. There is a pair of jade thumb rings. Jiang Zhixian said: "Although this thumb ring cannot be said to be priceless, it is definitely not cheap."
Zhu said looking at the ring and said: "Not only did I give you the money to ring, but now I'm helping you catch the robber. I think he actually wants to win you over. Why don't we try to pull it off?"
Jiang Zhixian asked: "What do you mean?"
Zhu said: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. We have to go to Yiyang Gang to have a look."
Jiang Zhixian nodded and said: "Okay! I'm going to pay my respects now. Tomorrow, you and I will go to Yiyang Gang to have a look. Let's go and meet Xiao Wu now. He should be waiting in a hurry."
After Jiang Hong came out of the Yamen, his mood was extremely bad. Just as Yamen Zhang said, he had not accomplished anything big. When I became the head catcher, I once caught a bandit and let him run away. Now, Zhang Yamen and the Yiyang Gang have wiped out all the bandits, and Jiang Hong is hit hard. Originally, Jiang Hong wanted to achieve some results because he was not convinced by anyone, but now! Even the newly arrived master Zhu Shuo looked down upon himself. With this thought in mind, Jiang Hong walked to the county prison and told the jailer: "You should take good care of those bandits. If you dare to make any mistakes, I will make you look good!"
Seeing that Jiang Hong was in a bad mood, the guards in the prison lowered their heads and remained silent to prevent Jiang Hong from being offended. However, Jiang Hong didn't think so. He now felt that these people were ignoring him because they were looking at him. Not up to him, he angrily yelled: "Why don't you speak? Are you mute?"
The jailers said hurriedly: "Okay! Mr. Jiang, we must be very alert and take care of these prisoners." Jiang Hong snorted coldly and left, leaving the jailers in a daze. I don't know the temper of this Jiang Captou.
Jiang Hong walked out of the county government office and patrolled the streets alone. As he walked on the street, he saw Guo Renjie from the Yiyang Gang and several gang members walking in the street from a distance. I don't know if he was sincere or just polite. Yes, the people passing by all said hello to Guo Renjie, and Guo Renjie also smiled and bowed to these people in return. This made Jiang Hong even more angry. When he walked on the street, he never saw anyone saying hello to him. How could he win the respect of so many people! Jiang Hong felt unbalanced, so he angrily walked to the tavern and started drinking.
Jiang Hong drank a lot of wine in the pub until night fell. This matter made the tavern lively, with many local people talking about the Yiyang Gang. I saw a storyteller who talked about it with great enthusiasm, "Say, our Xinyang is originally called Yiyang! And our Yiyang has a Yiyang Gang. The old gang leader of the Yiyang Gang, Guo Minglei, is nicknamed Sanjin Taibao!" "
"Which three golds are they?" the people below asked one after another.
"The first two golds are the two gold and silver hammers in the hands of old gang leader Guo! The moves are so powerful, so powerful!"
"There is still one gold left!"
"Here is another piece of gold. It is the copper-headed iron brain of the old gang leader Guo! The iron-headed one is extremely skilled and invulnerable! With these three pieces of gold, in our Yiyang, we got rid of the bandit Liu Dadao who was causing harm to the people at that time."
"and after!"
"Later, the heroes from Juyi established our current Yiyang Gang!"
Everyone below cheered and clapped!
"This tiger father has no sons. Now, the leader of our Yiyang Gang, Guo Renjie, is the eldest son of the old gang leader Guo Minglei. Seeing that there are bandits in our area around Xinyang, after receiving the news, he immediately organized his troops and arrested this group of thieves. ! He has the demeanor of the old gang leader back then!".
Seeing the cheers of the people below, the slightly drunk Jiang Hong snorted disdainfully. At this time, a person at the table next to him said to Jiang Hong, "This brother seems to be quite disdainful?"
Jiang Hong said: "Is there any?"
Another person at the same table saw Jiang Hong and immediately said, "Oh! Isn't this Jiang Hong, the head catcher of our county government?"
"Ah? He is the Jiang Hong who became the head catcher because his uncle was the county magistrate." Another person said.
When Jiang Hong heard this, he immediately became angry. He grabbed the man's collar and shouted loudly: "What did you say!"
"What? Everyone knows something, and you are still afraid of others saying it?" The man was not afraid of Jiang Hong at all.
Jiang Hong stretched out his fist and was about to hit the man. I saw the man saying contemptuously: "Hitting me is nothing! If you have the ability, go find Gang Leader Guo of the Yiyang Gang!"
Another person said disdainfully: "Forget about Gang Leader Guo, he probably won't even be able to win against Gang Leader Guo's younger brother, Guo Zixiong!"
Jiang Hong was breathing heavily, his reason was overwhelmed by anger, and he said, "Okay! Let me show you what I am capable of!" He let go of the man's collar, and walked out of the tavern with his spear in hand. At this time, the two people saw the angry Jiang Hong leaving, and one of them worried: "He won't really go to Gang Leader Guo!"
"Just look for him! He looks so majestic with a spear. Isn't he really a match for Gang Leader Guo? Come on, let's go ahead and sit down and drink."
Jiang Hong left the tavern and planned to go straight to the Yiyang Gang. On the way, they happened to see Guo Zixiong, Zhang Haiwei and Qian Fufei walking out of the brothel and getting on the sedan. Jiang Hong followed closely, and after walking to a place with few people, Jiang Hong casually found a veil to cover his face, blocking their way.
