"Sir, if the matter is not completed, please ask the deputy judge to punish me!"
Zhang Liang, who left the dungeon angrily, did not find any opportunity to vent his anger. Instead, he rushed to a public house in the back of the Yamen without stopping and bowed down to confess his crime.
Sitting in front of Zhang Liang was a man who looked to be in his fifties, with a long beard and a crown. His face was cold, and his eyes looked at Zhang Liang without anger or authority. There is a natural sense of oppression lingering all the time.
This person is one of the two deputy judges of the Yongchuan City Yamen, Liao Yong. He is in charge of half of the initiative of the Yamen in handling external cases and is one of the top three most powerful figures in the Yamen.
"Punishment? It has nothing to do with you at this point. It's because I underestimated the power of the sword hall and also underestimated Bai Zhentang."
"Ah? Sir, I don't quite understand what you are saying. Why is it still related to Bailang? What kind of energy can he have with just a beginning?"
Zhang Liang now has an obsession in his heart. He could accept that things about Dazhangzhuang were messed up this time, and he could even face the possible influence or rumors calmly. But he couldn't let go of that hateful and arrogant Bai Lang who even dared to ignore him. So when he heard Liao Yong mention Bailang, Zhang Liang immediately became sensitive.
Liao Yong didn't know what Zhang Liang was thinking, but facing this general under his command, he said directly without much thought: "I was called over by the Yamen early this morning. The Yamen directly showed me three All the notes were to say hello to Bai Lang.
One was handed over by the First Lady of the City Lord's Mansion, one was handed over by the Second Lady of the City Lord's Mansion, and the other was handed over to the Yamen Lord by Zhou Zhonghao in his own name. The three notes all asked the same thing, that is, why Bai Lang was arrested and for what crime. Zhou Zhonghao even said that he hoped that the Yamen would give him a result in the end. "
"This...sir, you can't do it?! Bailang really has this ability?! He knows very well that there is no one else at home except two little kids. The three of them almost starved to death together before. How could this happen? Is it related to the City Lord’s Mansion?!”
At this time, Zhang Liang could only describe it with the word "shocked". Or you can add a sense of "disbelief" or even a hint of panic.
You must know that the First Lady and the Second Lady of the City Lord's Mansion are already very important. Normally, even if the Yamen Lord receives such a note, he would not dare to deal with it hastily. Especially the eldest lady, it can be said that she is in charge of many big businesses in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion and in Yongchuan City, and has great energy.
And at the end, Deputy Judge Liao also mentioned the three words "Zhou Zhonghao". This person's importance should not be underestimated. He was the city lord's personal guard and his confidant. Moreover, Zhou Zhonghao's voice was often the city lord's intention, but because it was difficult to come forward directly, Zhou Zhonghao took care of it on his behalf.
"With these three notes here, tell me which side the Yamen Lord will take? I'm afraid the Yamen Lord will be unable to help himself at this time."
"What do you mean, sir?"
"There's nothing left to say when things get to this point. You go and reply to Dazhangzhuang. You don't need to make any excuses. Just tell them what I just told you. Bailang must be let go before noon tomorrow. Counting today's For most of the day, this is the last time we have to buy Dazhangzhuang. Let them figure out a way later. "
Zhang Liang responded quickly, understanding that Deputy Judge Liao had been suppressed by the Yamen Lord, and was ready to admit defeat and give up on Dazhangzhuang, which he had been in contact with for many years. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said the last sentence to let the people of Dazhangzhuang figure out their own solutions. It was obvious that he was withdrawing and dissociating himself from the relationship. In this way, we can determine what kind of ferocious revenge Dazhangzhuang will face in the future, so much so that Deputy Judge Liao is worried that he will be implicated.
I'm afraid it will be difficult for Dazhangzhuang. Zhang Liang came to a conclusion in his mind.
After coming out of the Yamen, Zhang Liang hurried to Dazhangzhuang and stayed in the village for a full hour and a half before leaving. When he left, Zhang Liang's face was almost dripping with gloom.
Just as Zhang Liang expected. Dazhangzhuang was immediately furious after hearing what Deputy Judge Liao told him, with panic and disbelief. I don't even understand how a mere waisted knife can be so difficult to deal with, and how the swordsman is willing to go to such an extent with Da Zhangzhuang for a waisted knife. Even in their opinion, it is just a trial, and it is impossible for it to evolve to this point!
"Can't the Yamen control a group of evil people?"
Faced with this kind of questioning, what can Zhang Liang say? the wicked? As for the evil people, they are also evil people in the hands of the city lord's palace, or even the evil people in the hands of the royal family of the country. From top to bottom, these evil people are everywhere and indispensable. Expecting the yamen to punish these evildoers is only an idea that people with limited cognition would have.
Dazhangzhuang is really just like Bailang said, after just a few days of eating, he can no longer recognize himself. Zhang Liang felt a little regretful at this moment. For the sake of these idiots in Dazhangzhuang, it was not worthwhile for me to get into troubled waters!
How Dazhangzhuang finally takes revenge from the sword shop has nothing to do with Zhang Liang. What he needs to consider now is how to minimize the impact on himself in this matter. The main reason for arresting people is to pluck him out of the matter of "White Wave Stealing".
So that night, the boy who had blackmailed Bailang and was later released by the Yamen was taken away from home, put into a sack and disappeared into the mass graves outside the city.
After cleaning the ends of his hands, Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief. It was late at night before I returned home to catch up on some sleep.
Early the next morning, not long after Zhang Liang went to work, he heard a report from the yamen below that people had been released from the dungeon. After coming out of the dungeon, Bailang not only did not leave immediately, but instead entered the yamen and went to the yamen. Coming over to him. She said she wanted to say goodbye to him.
To see or not to see? Zhang Liang only hesitated for a moment and decided to meet the other party. He didn't want to lose his momentum in front of a mere swordsman from the knife shop that he had always looked down upon.
"Bai Lang has met Ban Tou Zhang."
"What did you want to do when you came to me?"
"Bai Lang came here specifically to bid farewell to Team Leader Zhang. Although he has not had much contact with Team Leader Zhang in the past few days, he left a deep impression on him. Bai Lang dare not forget Team Leader Zhang's kindness. Next time we meet again, I will tell Team Leader this time Take care of him." Bai Lang smiled and cupped his hands, then ignored the gloomy-looking Zhang Liang and turned around to leave.
Bailang could have skipped this trip. But after careful consideration, he still chose to come. For no other reason than to provoke Zhang Liang's anger and at the same time show that he has the courage and courage of Zhang Liang. This is an explanation to the knife shop and all the people who helped him operate behind the scenes. Instead of just hurriedly fleeing from the yamen and going home without daring to say a word even though he had suffered injustice.
And Bai Lang didn't just express his attitude, he really wasn't prepared to let Zhang Liang have an easy time like this. It's not a matter of life and death, but he can still find a way to make Zhang Liang uncomfortable in the future. Come and say hello today, and we will have a long time together from now on.
