Chapter 221: Feng Si's Downfall



As soon as the words fell.

The people cheered even louder, singing and dancing around the soldiers and Xie Ling and the others.

People in Lingnan are good at singing and dancing. It is estimated that Sinan County has not encountered such a celebration for a long time. Those who can play musical instruments hurried home to take out their instruments, those who can sing sang folk songs on the road, and those who can dance walked and danced around Xie Ling and the others.

This group of soldiers had never been loved so much by the people. Their arms were filled with eggs, pigs or fine wine given by the people. They could not refuse at all. They were all blushing with shame, and their hearts were burning with warmth.

Everyone in the Feng family and the Si family was almost fainted from anger.

In particular, the head of the Si family had already fainted and was carried away by others.

On the third day that the Feng and Si family members were detained in prison, Wu Daqiang's letter was also delivered to the residence of Yang Taishou in Jiaozhou.

After reading the letter, Yang Taishou was in a dilemma. He shook his hand and said, "I won't do it if Shi Jing's name is not written on it! It's always like this. They attribute such a great achievement to me. Where can I put my old face?"

Wu Daqiang cupped his hands, "I beg the governor to help me! My master has offended someone in the capital, and it's not good to show off!"

Governor Yang sighed, "Alright, alright. After all, Shi Jing is my good brother. The rewards Shi Jing has received from the court in the two months I have known him are more than I have received in my entire life. Let me make it clear, I will take the title for him, but I don't want any rewards from the court!"

Wu Daqiang's eyes flashed with an ambiguous smile: "Prefect, you also know that the imperial court's reward... well, those who understand will understand. It won't be much. Jiaozhou and Sinan County are quite far away, so I won't send it back and forth by boat. You can keep it for yourself."

Governor Yang sighed and gave up.

He glanced at the charges against the Feng and Si families at the end of Gu Wei's letter.

His eyes widened and the chubby boy’s hands were shaking.

"The Feng and Si families are too arrogant. The nine clans are not enough to be killed. Wait... Feng Jinlong is actually the backer of the Si family. Shi Jing is too capable. He can even find Feng Jinlong's crimes! I have hated him for a long time!

Wait, there is also this old Si Jun, haha, I am really happy! I have long wanted to get rid of these cancerous tumors for the court! Your Excellency has helped me a lot, I will write a letter now! Chief Clerk, please prepare the pen and ink!"

Seeing that the task was accomplished, Wu Daqiang quickly said goodbye and left.

He really couldn't bear to leave his group of soldiers!

After being away for a few days, I started to miss you so much.

Wu Daqiang didn't know that the soldiers he cared about so much were already happy working for Gu Wei and didn't want to leave.

Xie Ling cooked a big pot of chicken, the aroma spread from ten miles away. Before the dish was served, the soldiers were already laughing and flattering him.

Although each person only got a few pieces of chicken later, everyone was very happy.

Because the county magistrate and his wife were also eating here. In the past, the county magistrate was so rich that the road to the military camp was too steep, let alone eating with them.

As soon as they finished eating and cleaned up, Gu Wei said, "Are you full? Good. Let's start training."

The soldiers quickly stood in line.

They thought that they could withstand Lord Wu's strict training, let alone a county magistrate.

It is said that county magistrates are all civil servants. We will show him our abilities later.

But later they paid the price for their idea.

They have never been so tired in their lives!

After practice, I just lay down on the bed and didn’t want to go anywhere, not even move a finger.

But after practice every day, Xie Ling would prepare delicious meals for them, sometimes a big pot of meat, sometimes spicy chicken, and sometimes mushroom hot pot.

It is such a blessing to eat delicious food after being tired. These soldiers are very happy.

After training for a few days, the soldiers tasted the sweetness.

Their postures became more and more graceful, their figures became more and more dignified, even their steps became more vigorous, and their eyesight became better.

I used to be exhausted after running ten kilometers, but now running thirty kilometers is more than enough for me.

The soldiers are no longer satisfied with the current level and begin to want more demanding training.

But on this day, Gu Wei did not practice.

Gu Wei stood in front of the soldiers and said in a cold voice, "Those who have helped the Feng and Si families before, step out of line."

He didn't even use the prepared words, and some soldiers stepped out obediently, lowering their heads and not daring to speak.

After these days of training, these soldiers have long been convinced of Gu Wei and admire him from the bottom of their hearts, so naturally they dare not lie to him.

Gu Wei took a look and found that there was indeed no one on Xu Xingzhi's list among those who came out.

Xu Xingzhi had already found out which soldiers were the real accomplices to the evil.

Gu Wei has been observing these days.

Those guys are very sneaky and cunning, and are pretty scoundrels.

Gu Wei glanced at them and said in a cold voice, "Those who step out, run around the training ground twenty times."

The soldiers looked excited because this sentence meant they were forgiven!

I quickly got out of the line and started running excitedly.

Gu Wei raised his eyes and called out in a calm tone to ten people to step out.

"You guys think you can hide this from me? Pack your bags tonight and never come back to Sinan County again."

Just as Gu Wei finished disciplining the soldiers, Wu Daqiang rode over on his horse, quickly dismounted, and shouted, "Brothers, did you miss me?"

When Gu Wei saw Wu Daqiang coming, he turned around, mounted his horse and wanted to leave.

There are still many things to be dealt with in the county government, so he has to go back and get busy.

Unexpectedly, all the soldiers looked at him with reluctance.

"Mr. County Magistrate, will you come and lecture us again?"

Gu Wei laughed, "Master Wu is back. From now on, Master Wu will lead you. I won't come here anymore."

The soldiers looked regretful.

Wu Daqiang's eyes widened: "Why, I can't do it! Humph! Do you have to ask the county magistrate?"
