Can you live forever

Chapter 52 Ghosts and gods are vulgar, strong and weak luck

"Here, that's the Dengwen drum."

Bringing Zhang Zhixiang and the others to the Yamen of Yingtianfu, Xu Pengju enthusiastically acted as a guide, pointed to the big drum outside the gate of Yingtianfu and said, a long time ago, because of overgrown weeds and vines, the Yamen built a flower bed to surround it. There are some flowers and plants in it.

As a result, after the thunder blasted, the flower bed exploded, and all the plants and trees were burnt, leaving a drum.

It was already past noon when they arrived at the Yamen of Yingtianfu, and the Dengwen drum would not ring by itself. It seemed that there was nothing strange about it, that is, after more than 100 years, it was still as good as new.

Of course, although it looks ordinary.

The other officials were so frightened that they didn't even dare to take a look at it. Xu Pengju walked over in a big way, picked up the drumstick and knocked it twice casually. After the sound of the drum, there was a commotion in the yamen.

"Hahaha……"

Xu Pengju laughed loudly, handed the drumstick to Zhang Zhixiang, and motioned him to come too.

Zhang Zhixiang didn't pick it up, but Yushui on the side muttered, "Isn't this guy afraid?"

Xu Pengju opened the fan and fanned the wind and said, "I am the descendant of the Duke of Wei after Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and my family is rich and dignified. Even if someone does evil in the name of the Duke of Wei and collects money, he will be punished as a member of the clan and has nothing to do with me."

"If this Dengwen Drum is really a manifestation of the Taizu Emperor, how can it make things difficult for me, my descendant and nephew?"

"It's okay, it's okay."

It is always said that Zhu Yuanzhang killed heroes, but he did not kill them all. During the Hongwu period, 63 knights were enshrined, and there are still a few people who have achieved great results, such as Wei Guogong Xu Da, E Guogong Chang Yuchun, Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, Wei Guogong Deng Yu Yimai, Xinguogong Tanghe, Chengyibo Liuji, Xiping Hou Muying, Dingyuanhou Guoying.

Hmm... there are 8 people left.

In fact, you can’t blame Lao Zhu entirely, just like Daming is like a bird today, Lao Zhu Quan knows, I’m afraid he feels that he has killed less...

All in all, those who can survive under the hands of Lao Zhu have a very upright family tradition, and they probably know what to do and what not to do. Only by "keeping the integrity" can they prosper for a long time.

Xu Pengju felt that he was innocent, and he was not afraid of the spirit of Emperor Taizu, so he dared to make fun of Dengwengu.

Zhang Zhixiang touched the Dengwen drum, and muttered in a low voice: "Whether it is the emperor Taizu's spirit is another story, but since the Dengwen drum was set up by Taizu, the standard for beating the drum must be related to the "Da Gao"."

"Okay, that's terrible."

Xu Pengju exaggerated: "If the judgment is based on the "Dagao", eleven out of ten people in the Ming court will be imprisoned!"

In fact, there is no need to follow the "Great Law", even if you follow the "Law of the Ming Dynasty", there are not many clean people, so Cui Wen, Wu Wending and the others don't care what grievances Dengwengu is complaining about.

There are grievances everywhere, how to solve them?

According to the standard of "Da Gao", can't Da Ming be cleaned up and down?Don't be kidding, don't say that this is just a broken drum, that is, when Emperor Hongwu was around, how many people obeyed the "Da Gao"?Lao Zhu's head was rolling, but he was barely able to sustain it.

"You follow me to handle the case, and you only speak sarcastic words?"

Zhang Zhixiang was also blocked in one breath and felt very uncomfortable, so he had the intention of chasing him away.

Xu Pengju quickly apologized, and said, "Calm down, calm down, I'm providing ideas, even if all the officials are guilty, you still have to deduce the rules of Dengwengu's work, right?"

"You see, when we usually suppress bandits, we often kill the evil leaders. Those people who were coerced were sent back and dismissed."

"Another one."

"Not all the officers and soldiers are as powerful as Mr. Yangming. Many people are appointed to suppress bandits. Most of them start from soft persimmons and train their soldiers well before they dare to fight those who have a bad reputation."

"What I mean is, let's go and look at the file first. Who are the people who died these days?"

"Would it be possible to know whether this Dengwen drum is directly killing the villain, or whether it is trying to soften the persimmon first."

Xu Pengju said this with a smile, Zhang Zhixiang looked at him in surprise, it turned out that this guy is not an idiot, at least the logic of his remark is very clear.

"Hey, let's go!"

Xu Pengju smiled, and immediately walked into the government office. The servants didn't know whether to stop him. They knew Xu Pengju, but according to what Xu Pengju said, they were here to investigate the case.

These people are not in charge of criminal names, so they have no right to investigate cases.

And these cases, Mr. Zhifu...

The yamen servants were still hesitating, so Xu Pengju easily supported the fan and pushed them away. It wasn't the yamen servants' cooperation, but Xu Pengju's ingenuity to lift weights with ease.

Seeing this scene, Wang Jiangque spit out two words lightly: "No work."

Zhang Zhixiang wasn't thinking about it at first, but he also realized when he heard the reminder. Xu Pengju's martial arts is actually not bad. Didn't it mean that this guy is Wen Tian and Wu Xi, and it is recorded in history that this guy will have the title of idiot in the future?
The Ze of Gentlemen, he will be executed in the fifth generation.

However, in any wealthy family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the children may be a little perverted, and there should be nothing to say about ability training, and there are very few real idiots.

Zhang Zhixiang became a little more wary of Xu Pengju, not as relaxed as before.

Xu Pengju didn't care about these things either, he showed some proficiency in front of Zhang Zhixiang, so he had his own plans, but the Yingtianfu Yamen knew that it was him, the devil king of the world, who had come, neither the magistrate nor the promoted official showed up.

That's right, Xu Pengju's Nanjing defense has no real power.

But he is Wei Guogong after all, these little magistrates, can they still stop this Guogong?Not to mention anything else, if the Grand Duke beats you, you will be beaten for nothing, and there is nowhere to redress your grievances.

This is the truth.

Another reason is that in the back hall, Luo Wenzhong was chatting with his staff, and the staff asked: "Dengwen Guzi is a big matter, really let Wei Guogong and the others investigate?"

Luo Wenzhong said: "The people above are fighting, let's just watch it. One more thing, I'm just a small magistrate with limited official luck. I'm afraid the Dengwen drum will get on me soon."

"Those big brothers are not afraid of this drum, but I worry every night."

"You didn't see the death of those people..."

When Luo Wenzhong said this, the staff also trembled with fear. They dealt with these cases directly. The logic of Xu Pengju's guess was correct. Deng Wengu pinched the "soft persimmon" first.

The first to die these days are some bureaucrats and those evil bosses who bully men and women on the street.

But yesterday, the head of the police squad died.

If this goes on like this, a high-ranking official will die in a few days. He, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, will bear the brunt of it. He doesn't know how fierce the fighting is. He only knows that if Dengwengu is not resolved, he Luo Wenzhong will have to die.

Therefore, Luo Wenzhong wished that Wei Guogong would bring the little celestial master to investigate the case.

Check, check quickly!
Even if Luo Wenzhong was dismissed and returned to his hometown, it would be better than dying in office!
