Chapter 151 I never like to follow rules

Nightfall!

Lin Mang and his party, who rushed to Nankang Prefecture, rushed back to Fuzhou City.

From leaving to returning, it took ten days in total.

Within a thousand households,

When Luo Shangzhi heard the news of Lin Mang's return, he hurried over.

Seeing Luo Shangzhi coming from outside the hall, Lin Mang smiled and cupped his hands, saying: "General Luo!"

Luo Shangzhi suddenly stopped in his steps, glanced at Lin Mang in surprise, and then walked in quickly.

Why do I feel like this guy is a bit hard to see clearly?

"Have you found out who did this?"

Lin Mang nodded slightly and said calmly: "Yang Hexiu's son."

A trace of surprise flashed in Luo Shangzhi's eyes, and he said in amazement: "His son..."

"Yang Xuancheng?"

As far as he knew, Yang Hexiu's first few sons had all been sent away to serve as officials, so it was impossible for them to get involved in this matter.

"That's right." Lin Mang picked up the tea on the table and tasted it slowly.

"By the way, how is the war going?"

Luo Shangzhi didn't ask any more questions and replied with a smile: "The army has pushed to the outskirts of Linjiang. This is the last city occupied by the rebels."

"Tomorrow I am going to mobilize 100,000 troops to besiege Linjiang."

Lin Mang also breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that it is not far away from Benshi's return to the DPRK.

The rebellion lasted for nearly five months and was finally over.

Lin Mang put down his tea cup, turned around and said, "General Luo, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Linjiang for the time being."

Luo Shangzhi was stunned, looked at Lin Mang in surprise, and asked, "Does Master Lin have something important?"

At such an important moment, he was ready to invite Lin Mang to the city with him.

Lin Mang told him about Yang Xuancheng.

After listening, Luo Shangzhi fell into a daze.

Although Yang Xuancheng does not have an official position, when it comes to status, I am afraid that ordinary officials cannot compare with him.

Luo Shangzhi's hand holding the tea cup stayed in mid-air and did not move for a long time.

Even Yang Hexiu's son was killed. This was a son-in-law's revenge.

This knot is too big!

To be honest, even he wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

And exchanging dead people for money...how did you come up with this?

For a long time, Luo Shangzhi turned back and looked at Lin Mang deeply, not knowing what to say.

"Brother Lin, will he really deliver it?"

"It will definitely happen." Lin Mang nodded with a smile and said meaningfully: "You said... a minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs took out five million taels. How does Your Majesty feel when he finds out?"

Luo Shangzhi's face changed slightly.

What do you think?

What do you think? I'm afraid I even thought about killing Yang Hexiu.

This plan is insidious enough.

I was secretly glad in my heart.

Fortunately, there was no conflict with Mr. Lin.

This guy...is so arrogant!

The two communicated for a while, and then Luo Shangzhi stood up and left.

…

Beijing,

Yang Mansion.

The butler bowed and walked into the lobby and said respectfully: "Sir, someone just delivered this."

Yang Hexiu glanced at the brocade box in the butler's hand, frowned slightly, and asked, "Who sent it?"

The housekeeper shook his head and said: "I don't know, it's just an ordinary person who delivers things."

"Open it!" Yang Hexiu lowered his head to look at the ancient book in his hand and said calmly.

Hearing this, the butler opened the brocade box in his hand.

But the moment he opened it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Old... Master!"

"Huh?" Yang Hexiu looked up slightly dissatisfied. Just as he was about to scold him, his eyes suddenly focused on the half-severed finger in the brocade box.

On the severed finger, there is an emerald green ring.

Yang Hexiu sat up in shock and said angrily: "This is Xuan'er's thing!"

His eyes instantly became bloodshot and his face was full of anger.

"Sir, there is another letter in the brocade box." the butler reminded.

Yang Hexiu fiercely took out the letter from the brocade box, tore it open and glanced at it.

In an instant, his face became extremely gloomy, the veins on his neck were exposed, and he was breathing heavily.

Yang Hexiu staggered back two steps, the letter in his hand was smashed into pieces, and he roared: "Five million taels!"

"Bitch!"

"I'm afraid you'll lose your life!"

"A mere bandit is trying to threaten me!"

The official behind him bowed and said, "Master, do you really want to send money?"

Yang Hexiu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a cold look on his face.

The letter stated that they would not let him go until he received five million taels.

The signature of this letter is "Iron-faced Grand Master, Liu Ruguo!"

He still had some impression of this person.

Jiangxi rebels revolted, this person is the leader of the bandits!

As for whether it is really this person, it actually doesn't matter.

No matter who dares to touch his son, he will definitely let his entire family be buried with him!

Most people like their youngest sons, even him.

He got a son when he was old, and he was very pampering towards this son.

Yang Hexiu said coldly: "Go to the secret treasury to get the banknotes, and secretly redeem the land deeds of several farms, shops, restaurants, and collect the five million taels!"

Five million taels is not a small amount, even for him, it is more than half of his family property.

"In addition..." Yang Hexiu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said coldly: "Inform the major alliance near Jiangxi about this matter, and ask the people from the major alliance to take action. As long as my son is saved, we will kill them immediately!"

"In addition, we will cut off all business with the White Lotus Sect and tell them that if they don't get rid of the Iron Mask Master, they will no longer have to cooperate in the future!"

There was a hint of coldness on Yang Hexiu's face, and his tone was solemn: "Prepare your horse!"

"I want to enter the palace to face the Holy Spirit!"

…

The morning sun rises,

The Beijing camp in Fuzhou began to move out, and 50,000 troops marched out of Fuzhou.

However, after the army left Fuzhou, some soldiers and horses turned around and headed towards Nan'an Prefecture.

Nan'an is not far from Linjiang, and it was still a place occupied by rebels two days ago.

It has just been pacified, but the security in Nan'an has not yet been restored.

On the official road, the army galloped on horseback.

At the front are hundreds of imperial guards.

Lin Mang rode Pixiu and rode towards the rising sun.
