Hong Chengchou said, "there's another secret. Tell me, what else can there be?"
Wu Xiuwen said: "the governor of Yangzhou, Lord Gao Wang, is interrogating a public case recently, which is the maysilver incident that has disturbed Jiangnan for many years. After years of open and secret visits, Lord Gao has investigated the matter almost, and is ready to make all the evidence public so that everyone in the world can know."
Hong Chengchou had no good expectations for this. He knew that the other party couldn't fart.
Wu Xiuwen was good at observing words and colors. Seeing that the other party was unmoved, he had to continue to say. He said: "after years of investigation by Lord Gao and torture by fan Ruoshui and others, he finally found out the truth. This is Zhu Dadian. He colluded with fan Ruoshui and jointly set up this situation in order to pit the wealth of the rich in Jiangnan."
However, Hong Chengchou was interested and dumped the pot at Zhu Dadian. In fact, he knew that the Chinese army did it. He didn't care who the Chinese Army dumped the pot to. As long as he didn't dump it on himself, everything would be easy to say, which made him very moved and nervous "It doesn't make sense! Zhu Dadian doesn't have so much silver. He can't hide so much silver."
Wu Xiuwen said: "Only the dignified Fengyang governor Zhu Dadian, who colluded with the local snake fan Ruoshui and others, could set up such a situation. The silver was transported away by them. They originally transported the silver to an island and hid it secretly. They didn't use it until the wind was over. Who knows that the silver transport fleet encountered wind and waves at sea and sank near the Taizhou sea area, so he was also surprised He could not get any benefit. Afterwards, he could only try his best to cover up and shirk his responsibility. He would rather die than admit it. He executed all the officers and soldiers involved in the silver transportation, but some people escaped. These people exposed Zhu Dadian's atrocities, which made the matter public. "
Hong Chengchou pondered, "there is still some lack of evidence and persuasion."
Wu Xiuwen said: "What is the lack of evidence? There is evidence and material evidence here, and magistrate Gao also sent someone to salvage and fished out some silver. Although it is not much, it has been proved by many rich people in Jiangnan that this is the principal they paid for the Maying silver. It is an exclusive mark. It can not be fake. It can prove that this is what he did. There is also a local song: stone turtle vs. stone drum , five hundred thousand gold and silver. Anyone who knows it will buy Yangzhou mansion. "
Hong Chengchou said, "what do you say?"
Wu Xiuwen said: "This is a poem left by the officers and soldiers of Zhu Dadian's silver transportation. It is said that their ship encountered wind and waves somewhere between Shigui island and shigu Island, and all sank. There was no way to locate it on the sea. They could only write down the approximate location. These people reluctantly escaped under the wind and waves, and then were killed by Zhu Dadian. They died, fled, and the fish that escaped were caught The government caught it, but it's hard to find the silver. "
Hong Chengchou asked knowingly. He said, "in this way, is it true?"
Wu Xiuwen asked, "what does Marshal Hong think? The evidence is conclusive!"
Hong Chengchou said, "this must be true."
If this thing is true, we can wash away his suspicion. He is not a bad man who destroys the maysilver of Baiyun immortal, but a hero who exposes the bad man's conspiracy. The rich in Jiangnan will not hate him. He will not become the number one criminal hated by the world, which means that the hatred between him and the Liu family can be resolved.
Wu Xiuwen said, "of course it's true. The Yangzhou magistrate will soon hold a public trial on this matter and can return Marshal Hong's innocence."
Hong Chengchou also understood that if he promised to cooperate with the other party and surrender to the other party, the Yangzhou magistrate Gaowang would conduct a public trial on the matter, reveal the truth to the world and pick himself out. If he refused to surrender, the other party would not do so. He was still the traitor whom the whole Jiangnan hated and accused by thousands of people.
At this stage, Hong Chengchou doesn't care what the truth is, who is the culprit or who takes the money. All he cares about is whether he can take it out. If he takes it out, Zhu Dadian is infamous. So what? Anyway, Zhu Dadian is dead and all the people in his family are dead. He doesn't care if someone goes to them Trouble, in that case, isn't it good for him to carry the pot? Can't he always let himself carry it?
Hong Chengchou knew that this was the condition for the other party to surrender to him. He believed that the pot was taken out. There was no deep hatred between him and the Liu family.
If the other party is willing to do this for him and wash away the black pot, he naturally appreciates his ability and prestige and hopes that they will work for the country, which means that he can mix very well here in the Chinese army, at least he can advance and retreat freely.
If he dares to stop this surrender and spoil the good deeds of the Chinese army, it is estimated that all these will be different. If he resists tenaciously, naturally, there will be no public trial of the maysilver case by the governor of Yangzhou, and the other party will continue to let him carry this black pot until he loses his reputation and dies.
In this regard, Hong Chengchou pretended to be very grateful and said: "thank you for washing away the grievances of Liu dashai, the Chinese army. Otherwise, if someone dies, they will all be sinners through the ages, and they will never be able to turn over."
After he was charged with this crime, it was really difficult for him to move, which was extremely heavy, and it was also the reason why he hated the Chinese army. However, it was a rare opportunity to turn over when he showed kindness to him. He had no reason to refuse and agreed immediately.
Wu Xiuwen said meaningfully, "if you follow the Chinese army, you can turn over."
Hong Chengchou said, "for Liu Dashuai, Ben Shuai has been known for a long time. If you can see him, it will be a pleasure in your life."
He wouldn't say that just yesterday, he hated Liu Bu to the bone and painted a villain in his room. He wanted to curse Liu Bu to die. But now that he has become his own rice leader and his own master, it's different. He must say good words.
Now that the two sides have reached an agreement, Wu Xiuwen knows that the other party is a smart man. Looking at the world at this time, there is no better wharf than the Chinese army.
If Hong Chengchou didn't join the Chinese army, he would be dead end. If he wanted to join other forces, he would be dead end. He knew that the other party would deal with it well, so he made a bow and said, "arrangement by the lower officials." then he left quickly.
When Wu Xiuwen returned to the barracks, Duke Jingyun was still taking the trouble to explain to these generals the various policies of the Chinese army and the preferential treatment given to them, while outside the big account, there were full of soldiers. They were all listening in to inquire about the process and results of the matter.
They are afraid that these officials do not know what is good or bad and will ruin major events.
For many soldiers, what is decided at the moment is the fate of all people. It should be decided by all people, not by one person.
To put it bluntly, most soldiers want to surrender because they are afraid that officials will spoil their good deeds. Therefore, many soldiers come with weapons. They have a word in advance. Whoever dares to spoil their good deeds and cut off their wealth is to kill their parents.
Jingyun Gong saw more and more people listening. Every time he gave an example of the Chinese army, these soldiers cheered one after another and couldn't help sighing: "people's hearts are so strong, why don't you worry about big things?"
Duke Jingyun said so much. Seeing that the other party was still asking, he was a little impatient. The main reason was that he was out of strength. He refreshed himself by drinking ginseng tea. He said loudly: "You guys, there is a saying that seeing is believing and hearing is false. You might as well see it with your own eyes. The camp of commander Liu Zhongyong of the Chinese army is just three miles away from Jishui. You might as well send a team of hundreds of people to the canteen and camp of the Chinese army to see how the treatment is? This is more convincing Force. "
The welfare of the Chinese army is well-known. It is said that every meal is white rice, white steamed bread and meat.
All this is hearsay. It comes from the enemy's propaganda. These soldiers can't believe it. Where in the world can there be such a soldier? It's not a soldier. It's a ancestor. The Chinese Army deceives people. There is no bottom line.
Now he took the initiative to invite the big guys to the camp to have a look, which was a lot of intention to be a soldier.
Immediately arranged for people to recommend 1000 soldiers. With Jing Yungong and others returning to the camp of the Chinese army, we observed the treatment of the Chinese army.
Some of these soldiers were still worried that they would never return. They all explained the future affairs as if they were death squads.
Wu Xiuwen came back when these things had just begun. He made an OK gesture to minister Jingyun. How did this gesture come from? It was learned from Marshal Liu. According to what Marshal Liu said, it means that the task is completed.
Yang Sichang is a shrewd man. Although he is loyal to Daming, he can't stand the mud of Daming, can't help the wall, can't give him benefits, and can't protect him, so he has to change his face.
But it's OK to change. I don't know what conditions the other party can offer.
In Daming, he is the top general. He doesn't dare to expect the same treatment, but he has to mix with an official at the governor level. He envies the private talks between Hong Chengchou and Wu Xiuwen. However, he knows that the other party must not talk this step, and there must be a major deal.
But when the other party didn't invite him, he was helpless. When he saw Hong Chengchou leaving, he was sick and looked loveless. But when he came back, he was full of red face and high spirited. Yang Sichang's heart sank. He knew that the most anti Chinese army in the Ming army had probably surrendered to the Chinese army.
Yang Sichang was thinking: "I don't know what conditions Hong Chengchou offered in the opposite direction? This is successful. Take off your pants if you don't want to." so Yang Sichang also ignored the etiquette. He said: "we are now cold lips and teeth, both prosperity and loss. What conditions did the other party offer, but it made you so happy?"
