Chapter 151: Forever a Retainer! Return to Xianyang!
Time!
Everyone's eyes turned to the sound.
I saw a young man who exuded a formidable power riding a horse.
Even though he was not wearing a battle armor, he was wearing a black military uniform and his cold and majestic eyes made everyone here feel a suffocating oppression.
It seemed that as soon as he moved, the overwhelming murderous intent would be released, killing everything.
"General."
Wei Quan turned around and bowed as well.
"This general, I am the county magistrate of Linguancheng. Your soldiers are attacking randomly, so please ask the general to control them."
The county magistrate struggled to raise his head and said angrily.
It seemed to him that Zhao Feng in front of him could save him.
"Here comes someone." Zhao Feng raised his hand.
"Please give me your orders, Your Majesty." All the guards looked at Zhao Feng.
"Search the government office and find out the annual salary distribution records." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
"promise."
Zhang Ming immediately took the order, and all the personal guards rushed directly into the official residence.
"what are you up to?"
"General, even if you are a general, you cannot be so presumptuous."
"The government does not belong to the army."
"How dare you search at will?" The county magistrate became anxious and shouted at Zhao Feng.
There was a snap.
Zhang Ming slapped the county magistrate in the face so hard that his front teeth fell out.
"Don't be arrogant to the general." Zhang Ming shouted coldly.
"You...you..."
The county magistrate had blood in his mouth and looked on in horror.
Zhao Feng slowly dismounted and walked up to the county magistrate: "Now I will give you another chance. Have you taken advantage of Wei Quan's annual salary?"
"It's... nonsense."
"I...I want to sue the Sima of the Chinese Army, I want to sue..." The county magistrate did not shed tears without seeing the coffin.
"In the past, he was the one who insulted my sister and injured Brother Wei's family?" Zhao Feng looked at Wei Quan.
Wei Quan stepped forward and looked at the county magistrate with gritted teeth: "He is a helper, and the real owner is the young master of the Bai family in the county seat, who is now the head of the Bai family."
"Then why wait?"
Zhao Feng frowned: "No one gave you justice in the past, but now I will give you justice."
"Han Chenyan."
Zhao Feng shouted loudly.
"My subordinate is here." Han Chenyan arrived immediately.
"Capture the head of the Bai family and his entire family, and the servants will not be spared."
"Today I am going to retry the original adultery case here." Zhao Feng shouted coldly.
"promise."
Han Chenyan immediately took the order and headed towards the Bai family with his bodyguards.
Saw this fight.
More and more people gathered around, almost surrounding the entire government office.
"This general looks very powerful."
"The Wei family has finally come to an end this time."
"This general wants to bring justice to the Wei family."
"That's right."
"This general is so young. How come there are so many personal guards around him?"
"nonsense."
"Didn't you just hear that this general's surname is Zhao?"
"General Zhao? Is it the General Zhao Feng who killed Lian Po and Pang Nuan? He defeated Wei Wuji?"
"Apart from General Zhao Feng, which general in Great Qin has so many personal guards protecting him at such a young age?"
"I didn't expect to see this legendary figure today."
"I am the most brave and skilled general in the Qin Dynasty. General Zhao Feng played an important role in destroying the Zhao Kingdom this time. Now that he returns to the country, he will go to Xianyang to report on his duties and receive the king's favor."
"With General Zhao upholding justice for the Wei family, this is something that the Bai family and the county magistrate cannot stop."
"I didn't expect that Wei Quan would have such an opportunity and serve under General Zhao, so he got General Zhao to uphold justice."
…
The people around him started talking about it.
The discussion was unintentional, but what I heard was intentional.
When I heard Zhao Feng's name.
The government servants and county magistrates who were detained by the personal guards all looked frightened.
"Zhao...Zhao Feng?"
"Is he Zhao Feng?"
"How is this possible?"
The county magistrate's face turned pale.
He is just a small county magistrate. If compared with his official position in the army, he is equivalent to a captain.
The person in front of him was Zhao Feng, a new general in the Qin Dynasty whose prestige was not inferior to that of the three generals.
He, a small county magistrate, was like an ant in front of him.
"General Zhao, I made a mistake."
"I am willing to explain everything."
"General, please forgive me..."
At this moment, the county magistrate couldn't hold himself any longer and begged for mercy with a frightened look on his face.
Facing Zhao Feng, the county magistrate did not believe that the Bai family could still protect him, so naturally he did not dare to shut up.
"Are you willing to explain now?" Zhao Feng glanced at it, and with a glance from the corner of his eye, Zhang Ming had already led people to move out many records from the government office.
"General."
"All the records related to annual salary in the government have been moved out."
"The county captain and supervisor of this county wanted to escape, but were caught by their subordinates." Zhang Ming stepped forward and bowed to report.
And behind him.
Several other guards captured two people wearing official uniforms.
"Where is Wei Quan's annual salary recorded?" Zhao Feng glanced at the county magistrate, his eyes passed directly and fell on the county captain in charge of the annual salary distribution.
"In...there."
The county captain pointed to a shelved record in horror.
Zhang Ming immediately stepped forward, picked up the book and took a look.
Suddenly he frowned.
"General."
"This record is the annual salary record of General Wei two years ago." Zhang Ming said respectfully.
"How much has it been sent out?" Zhao Feng asked.
Zhang Ming took another careful look at the issued records, and frowned immediately: "Two years ago, General Wei was a military marquis, and his annual salary was deducted by 90%, and only 10% was issued."
Hearing this.
Wei Quan could no longer hold back, rushed forward, and slapped the county magistrate several times.
"You bastard."
"My annual salary was deducted by you by 90%."
"Do you know that my whole family has to rely on annual salary to survive?"
"I will kill you."
With a swish.
Wei Quan directly drew the sword at his waist and was about to cut down the county magistrate.
"Don't be impatient." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
Hearing Zhao Feng's words, Wei Quan suppressed his anger and put away the sword.
"Where is the annual salary record of General Wei in the past two years?" Zhao Feng asked the county lieutenant.
"Wei... General Wei?"
The county lieutenant was stunned and looked at him in surprise.
"General Wei Quan followed General Zhao from Han State, fought bloody battles in Zhao State, defeated Wei Wuji, destroyed Han State, destroyed Zhao State, and made many military achievements."
"Now he is a general of the Ten Thousand Army." Zhang Ming said coldly.
As soon as the words fell.
Everyone around was shocked.
"Wei Quan... became... became a general?"
"How is this possible?"
"Isn't he a logistics soldier?" The county magistrate was shocked, his eyes full of fear.
At this moment, he finally figured it out. He offended someone who could kill him, and his face turned pale.
Wei Quan's wives beside him were all shocked and surprised.
It seemed that they couldn't believe that Wei Quan had become a general.
"This is incredible."
"Wei Quan has become a general."
"General, this is much higher than the position of the county magistrate."
"No wonder General Zhao Feng personally upheld justice for Wei Quan, now Wei Quan's status is different."
"This time the county magistrate and the Bai family have come to an end."
"The hatred of so many years is finally coming to an end."
"Yes, this is also what the county magistrate and the Bai family asked for. They have been targeting the Wei family for so many years, just to force Wei Quan's family to death, and they even embezzled Wei Quan's annual salary, which is against the law."
...
The people around started to discuss again.
And at this moment, their eyes looking at Wei Quan also changed. They never thought that Wei Quan could become a general.
"This... In the past two years, Wei Quan, no, General Wei's annual salary records have been directly discarded."
"As for the annual salary, it is still issued according to one-nine-tenth of the previous one." The county lieutenant said in a trembling voice.
Now.
He finally understood it.
Why did the annual salary increase so much for no reason? The reason lies with Wei Quan. As a general, his title must be above the seventh title. The annual salary of the title plus the monthly salary of the official position are all real money.
"It seems so."
"You have embezzled more than just General Wei." Zhao Feng took a look and immediately understood.
If it was only Wei Quan who made a mistake, they might have investigated it, but they didn't know Wei Quan's title and official position at all, and they embezzled directly.
Obviously, this county government official was definitely not just Wei Quan who embezzled.
"Your subordinate... Your subordinate..."
The county lieutenant looked at him with a trembling voice, not knowing what to say.
At this time, he glanced at the county magistrate beside him and immediately said loudly: "I am willing to report it. All the corruption was led by the county magistrate and the head of the Bai family."
"In order to curry favor with the Bai family, the county magistrate bribed the Bai family with almost all the money he got from corruption, and the Bai family used their connections to suppress all the evil deeds of the county magistrate."
"I didn't embezzle a penny. It was all the corruption of the county magistrate and the Bai family."
"As for the rape, it was also suppressed by the county magistrate."
"All this has nothing to do with me. I was forced by them. I didn't take any of the embezzled annual salary." The county lieutenant said with a sad face.
"Are you sure you want to report it?"
Zhao Feng looked at the county lieutenant.
"I am willing to make meritorious contributions while guilty." The county lieutenant nodded repeatedly.
"Write down all the crimes of the county magistrate and the Bai family."
"I can give you a lighter sentence." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
"I am willing." How dare the county lieutenant refuse.
The county magistrate on the side was completely confused and looked at it in horror.
The laws of the Qin Dynasty were strict, especially after the current King of Qin took power, the annual salary was extremely important. Anyone who dared to embezzle the annual salary would be exterminated if found out.
And this time, the county magistrate in Linguan City dared to collude with the big families in the city to embezzle the annual salary. This must be said to be bold and presumptuous.
"Yes." Zhao Feng nodded and waved his hand.
Zhang Ming on the side immediately took out a blank bamboo slip and a carving knife for the county lieutenant.
At this time!
"Insolent."
"Who are you?"
"How dare you treat this family master like this?"
"Who is your superior? How dare you do this?"
"We are from the Bai family, and we scared your dog eyes."
"Insolent..."
Han Chenyan brought nearly a hundred people with a group of personal guards.
After these people were caught, they saw that they had come to the government office, and their arrogance remained unchanged, and they cursed loudly.
"General."
"All the people in the Bai family have been arrested, no one has been left out." Han Chenyan came to Zhao Feng and reported.
"Wei Quan, find the person who raped your sister." Zhao Feng glanced and said.
Wei Quan walked towards a person in gorgeous clothes among the Bai family without any hesitation.
"Bai Zhong."
"Do you still remember me?" Wei Quan's eyes were red, and he looked at the man in front of him with great hatred.
"Wei Quan?"
"It's you."
Bai Zhong looked at Wei Quan in surprise, but still without any fear: "You are so brave that you dare to mobilize the army to break into my house and arrest people without authorization? Who gave you the courage?"
"I gave it to you."
Zhao Feng said coldly.
Bai Zhong's eyes condensed and looked at Zhao Feng: "Who are you?"
"Lantian commander, Zhao Feng."
Zhao Feng said coldly.
Bai Zhong's face changed, and he looked at Zhao Feng in great sorrow: "You...you..."
At this moment, he couldn't say anything.
"Many years ago, you raped Wei Quan's sister and seriously injured Wei Quan's family. Do you still remember?" Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
"General Zhao."
"I was too impulsive back then. I am willing to compensate. Please be magnanimous."
"I am from the same clan as the Bai family, a great family in Xianyang."
"The Bai family's Shangqing is my cousin."
Facing Zhao Feng, Bai Zhong put away his arrogance and spoke respectfully, even moving out of the Bai family in Xianyang.
"According to the Qin law."
"What is the punishment for adultery?" Zhao Feng asked.
"Castration and imprisonment for five years." Zhang Ming said loudly.
"What is the punishment for serious injury to others?" Zhao Feng asked again.
"It depends on the injury. Severe injury should be imprisoned for three years." Zhang Ming said again.
"I still remember one, escaping criminal responsibility will be severely punished."
"This prison can add two more, making a total of ten."
"General Wei, why are you still standing there?"
"Deal with the crime of adultery first." Zhao Feng said coldly.
Hearing this!
A hint of coldness appeared on Wei Quan's face, and he took out a dagger from his arms.
"Bai Zhong, do you know how long I have been waiting for this day?"
"When you raped my sister, I had no way to complain. You brought people to hurt my whole family, and I had no way to complain."
"Today is the time for me, Wei Quan, to take revenge."
Wei Quan looked at Bai Zhong with red eyes, and slowly walked in front of him.
The two guards were very sensible and held Bai Zhong tightly.
Another person came and pulled Bai Zhong's pants directly.
"What are you going to do?"
"You dare."
Looking at Wei Quan with a crazy face, Bai Zhong was scared and wanted to dodge in fear, but was held tightly.
Wei Quan did not retreat at all, holding one hand and holding the dagger with the other hand to cut fiercely.
Kachi.
"Ah..."
Bai Zhong let out a heart-wrenching scream, and blood flowed from below.
This scream made everyone around feel a tingling scalp.
This also made everyone in the Bai family pale.
"County magistrate."
"Embezzlement of annual salary violates Qin law."
"Today, I, Zhao Feng, will execute the punishment."
"Behead me in the street to serve as a warning to others." Zhao Feng looked at the county magistrate and shouted coldly.
Wei Quan naturally took the lead and walked directly to the county magistrate and drew the sword from his waist.
"Spare my life, General Zhao, spare my life."
"It's all Bai Zhong's fault, it has nothing to do with me."
"Spare my life..." The county magistrate begged for mercy trembling all over.
But the next moment.
Wei Quan cut down with a sword, and the body and head were separated.
Everyone here was shocked by this fierce scene.
After doing all this.
Wei Quan finally raised a look of revenge on his face.
Then.
He turned around and knelt directly in front of Zhao Feng: "General, I will repay you with my life."
Wei Quan understood.
If there was no Zhao Feng.
He would not want to take revenge. If there was no Zhao Feng, he would still be in the logistics army, and there would be no today.
All this is Zhao Feng's grace.
"Don't let go of any of the evil servants who started the fight, and put them all in jail."
"Zhang Ming, you stay here and deal with them." Zhao Feng said slowly.
"Yes."
Zhang Ming immediately accepted the order.
"Brother Wei, don't you want me to visit your home?" Zhao Feng smiled at Wei Quan.
"Please move, General."
"My wife, let's go home quickly." Wei Quan immediately said to his wife.
This revenge for Wei Quan also fulfilled Zhao Feng's little wish.
Zhao Feng remembered everything Wei Quan said a few years ago.
In a place outside the county town.
In a small house.
Although it is in the county town, this small house is not as good as Zhao Feng's previous home in Sha Village.
As soon as he entered the yard.
There was an old couple in it, obviously Wei Quan's parents.
And Wei Quan's family also had one thing in common, from adults to his two sons, all of them were skinny.
Obviously they have suffered a lot over the years.
"Dad, Mom."
"I'm back."
After Wei Quan came back, he knelt directly in front of the two old couples in the yard, tears streaming down his face.
"Quan'er."
"You're finally back."
Wei Quan's parents looked at Wei Quan with joy, as if relieved.
Zhao Feng stood outside the yard, quietly watching the good news of the family reunion.
"I'm going home soon too."
"I haven't been home for almost four years. I don't know how my mother and sister are doing."
Thinking that he was going home too, Zhao Feng's face was also filled with a happy smile.
After Wei Quan reminisced about the past.
He also came back to his senses.
"Dad, Mom."
"Let me introduce you."
"This is my general. I'm sure you've heard of his name."
"Zhao Feng, the commander of the Qin Dynasty." Wei Quan introduced Zhao Feng to his parents excitedly.
"Zhao... Zhao Feng?"
"The person who is famous all over the world?"
Wei Quan's parents widened their eyes, a little bit unbelievable.
"Uncle and aunt, there is no need to be so surprised."
"I specially sent Wei Quan back this time to reunite your family." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Thank you, General Zhao."
Wei Quan's parents saluted Zhao Feng very reservedly.
Zhao Feng is a commander, a general.
How can they, the common people, not be in awe.
"Where is my little sister?"
"Is her madness better?" Wei Quan asked, with a kind of silent sadness in his heart.
"It's okay if you don't hear people talking about the Bai family, but they go crazy when they hear about it." Wei Quan's father sighed, his old face full of helplessness.
"Heart disease needs heart medicine."
"Go."
"Rest at home and accompany your parents."
"I'm leaving for Xianyang."
"To be safe, I'll let Han Chenyan lead a hundred guards to guard here."
"If you have any questions, just discuss with him, don't be afraid of anyone." Zhao Feng told Wei Quan.
Wei Quan bowed in gratitude: "My lord, I will never forget your kindness."
Then Wei Quan called his two sons: "Come here and kneel down."
The two sons obeyed very well and knelt beside Zhao Feng.
"I, Wei Quan, swear that my descendants of the Wei family will be loyal to the lord for generations and will always be servants of the family."
Wei Quan raised his hand and kowtowed to Zhao Feng with a serious face.
The two sons did the same.
Seeing this.
Zhao Feng smiled slightly: "No need to do this."
Then.
Waved his hand.
I saw a guard brought up a box that had been prepared long ago and placed it in front of Wei Quan.
"Give some gifts to my sister-in-law and nephew."
"No need to thank me."
After saying that.
Zhao Feng turned and left the yard.
The guards followed him.
"Bye, my lord."
Wei Quan bowed.
It was not until Zhao Feng rode away and disappeared from sight that Wei Quan slowly stood up.
"Call aunt out."
Wei Quan said to his two sons.
"Aunt."
"Dad is back."
The two sons immediately ran to a small house and shouted.
A woman wearing a cloth dress, with a somewhat shabby appearance and a dull face came out.
When she saw Wei Quan, she was surprised and rushed over and hugged him tightly: "Brother."
"Hey."
"I'm back." Wei Quan gently patted his sister's back.
Until his sister calmed down.
Wei Quancai said with a serious face: "Dad, Mom, the Lord has avenged our family."
"I personally beheaded the damned county magistrate."
"I also castrated the damned Bai Zhong, and the hawks who injured you were also imprisoned."
Hearing this news.
Wei Quan's parents and his sister were all shocked, as if they couldn't believe it, and then looked at Wei Quan's wife.
"Dad and Mom."
"It's true."
"That General Zhao has done justice for our family."
"I saw my husband deal with them with my own eyes." Wei Quan's wife said excitedly.
Hearing this!
Wei Quan's parents couldn't help it anymore, and knelt down in the direction where Zhao Feng left: "Benefactor, great benefactor, my Wei family will never forget it."
"Okay, Dad and Mom."
"You won't be wronged again in the future."
"Now the child is a general of the Qin Dynasty, a general."
"All this is given by the Lord." Wei Quan said happily.
He couldn't wait for this news.
"General?"
"You've become a general?" Wei Quan's parents widened their eyes.
At this time!
Wei Quan's eldest son picked up the box from the ground and opened it.
Suddenly, the golden gold was dazzling.
"Dad."
"So much gold." Wei Quan's eldest son shouted excitedly.
Wei Quan immediately stepped forward to take it, and his face was full of gratitude: "Master!"
"Xiong'er, Hu'er."
"You must remember Dad's oath just now."
"My Wei family will always be the master's servants, starting with Dad, and then you, your sons, and your descendants, are all servants."
"Until my Wei family is extinct."
"If any of the descendants dare to betray the master's family, they will be punished by heaven and earth, and will not be included in the family tree."
"This will be the ancestral precepts and passed down from generation to generation." Wei Quan warned again with an extremely serious look.
"My children will remember it."
Wei Quan's two sons also nodded heavily.
They naturally knew how much kindness the master had shown to their family just now.
——
Time flies.
Xianyang!
The city gate.
Many people gathered, all with a sense of curiosity.
The entire official road in the capital was guarded by the imperial guards, not the soldiers on duty.
Such a formation.
It is conceivable that something big must have happened, and they are welcoming someone.
Many people are looking forward to it.
Looking at their appearance, it seems that they all came here spontaneously.
…
