I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 522 Bribery
As the arrows shot over, Qiao Bin involuntarily pulled up the people around him and stood in front of him, trying to resist one or two.

However, the arrows were shot from all directions!

Even though he pulled people to block the front, the sides and back of his body were still exposed.

But after a while, the group of people were shot like hedgehogs and fell to the ground.

Only Qiao Bin was holding on to the clothes of the person in front of him, trying to stand up straight, but when he lowered his head slightly, his eyes could see the rouge-like arrow protruding from his heart.

Looking at the dripping blood on the arrow, Qiao Bin wanted to open his mouth to say something.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out from his mouth.

He... so unwilling!

With eyes wide open, he fell on his back.

Seeing that the people in the yard were all lying down, Ning Pengpeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When preparing to make this plan to catch a turtle in a urn, she actually had a drum in her heart all the time.

After all, Qing Niang, who is closest to her, is not by her side.

Even knowing that everything was going according to plan, she still couldn't help but worry.

After all, there are a lot of things, if there are no accidents, accidents will happen!

Therefore, she didn't even stay in her own room, but hid on the roof early and let the Hong Gang people hide in her room to ambush.

Fortunately, there was no accident this time.

However, Ning Pengpeng was still afraid of death, so he asked Lao Hu to check everything to make sure he was dead, and then cleaned up the yard.

But County Magistrate Wen didn't say anything more to Ning Pengpeng, and directly turned around and led people to surround the entrance of the Zhushui Gang.

The Zhushui gang had no leader, so naturally they were all tied up and thrown into prison.

However, the County Magistrate Wen discovered a big secret when he encircled and suppressed the Zhushui Gang this time.

It turned out that the boss Qiao who adopted Qiao Bin as his adopted son, after Qiao Bin managed the affairs of the Zhushui Gang, he could still see him from the beginning of the Zhushui Gang.

But later on, everyone in the Zhushui Gang knew that Boss Qiao was not in good health, so it was nothing to be curious about seeing no one for ten days and a half months.

Recently, Boss Qiao hasn't shown up for more than half a year.

Because Qiao Bin was in charge, no one in the gang ever asked how Boss Qiao was doing?

Zuo is just in poor health, he should be recuperating in the house outside.

Now County Magistrate Wen brought people to seal the entrance of the Zhushui Gang. After searching carefully, they found a dungeon in a rockery in the inner courtyard of the entrance.

When County Magistrate Wen dragged the people out of the dungeon, many subordinates of the Zhushui gang saw the skinny man, and they were stunned for a long time before they recognized that it was Boss Qiao.

"Helper?"

"Master Joe?"

"Boss Joe, how did you become like this?"

At this time, Boss Qiao held his breath and did not die.

Seeing myself finally seeing the light of day again, and hearing the voices of inquiries from all around, I couldn't help crying.

"Where...that...animal...animal?"

Boss Joe asked intermittently.

The fact that he was brought out of the dungeon must have been retribution for that beast.

Hearing Boss Qiao's words, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

They all had their arms tied behind their backs, and they didn't understand at all, who was the beast that Joe boss was talking about?

However, there was that smart person who immediately figured out the doubts.

"Master Qiao, Qiao Bin made you look like this?"

Hearing this abrupt voice, everyone's eyes widened.

However, before they could hear Boss Qiao's reply, County Magistrate Wen had them all dragged into the prison of the county government.

And Boss Qiao burst out laughing when he learned from County Magistrate Wen that Qiao Bin had been executed.

Behind the smile, he coughed and vomited blood non-stop.

"Retribution, retribution!"

After County Magistrate Wen heard Qiao boss laughing and shouting these two words, his voice stopped abruptly.

"My lord, this...he is dead!"

The people below reached out and probed under Joe's boss's nose, and then said to County Magistrate Wen.

County Magistrate Wen didn't expect that Boss Qiao could survive tenaciously in a place like a dungeon.

Now that he was finally rescued, and hearing the news of Qiao Bin's death, he couldn't hold on anymore.

It seemed that Boss Qiao was able to persevere in a place like a dungeon, all because of that breath.

Now that he knew that the enemy had to be punished, the anger naturally dissipated.

The demise of the Zhushui Gang, in the minds of the people of Muyuan County, was only discussed for a while, and then they focused on earning money to support their families.

After all, the Zhushui Gang belongs to the rivers and lakes. For ordinary people, it is indeed a bit far away.

The demise of the Zhushui Gang also made people in the Jianghu more cautious in their words and deeds.

On the other hand, the Hong Gang, after the Zhushui Gang was wiped out, quickly occupied the original Zhushui Gang's power and territory.

Of course, they only accounted for half of them, and the other half was in the hands of Magistrate Wen.

As for the demise of the Zhushui Gang, when County Magistrate Wen handed Ning Pengpeng's whereabouts to Master Futai of Pingyao Prefecture.

Knowing that the Zhushui Gang wanted to murder the Shouning County Lord, who was pro-appointed by the current dynasty, those in Pingyao Prefecture who were eager to get a share of the Zhushui Gang's soup from Wen County Magistrate immediately turned off their fire.

Ning Pengpeng also asked Luo Chengen to send a big gift to several adults in Pingyao Prefecture when Wen county magistrate presented the matter of Muyuan County, the pearls of the Ning family in Nanyue Prefecture.

Those who were originally looking at the money, the complaints in their hearts immediately dissipated.

After all, the Wen County Magistrate had originally wiped out the Zhushui Gang, which meant cutting off their source of income!

Now, there is no Zhushui gang, but there are new people to bribe them.

Moreover, with just this pearl, the things that the Zhushui Gang paid tribute every year were immediately compared to rubbish.

As long as their brains are not broken, they will naturally know which one to choose in the future to get something better.

Therefore, when Ning Pengpeng arrived in Pingyao Fucheng, Mr. Futai entertained him with a banquet in person.

Generally speaking, a county magistrate with a different surname like Ning Pengpeng, a dignified second-rank official of Futai in Pingyao Prefecture, who holds real power, naturally would not take the magistrate of Shouning seriously.

However, the Lord of Shouning County was not only sealed by His Majesty, but also given a first-rank imperial order and fiefdom.

It's okay to have a first-rank imperial order, but fiefdoms are rare.

Even those county lords under the real Zhao family's royal family name rarely have fiefdoms.

Of course, another important reason for Master Futai of Pingyao Prefecture to personally entertain the Lord of Shouning County is naturally the pearls she sent.

Such a precious thing, the Lord of Shouning County actually gave it away as soon as he said it.

With such a rich and powerful person, he naturally wanted to make friends with him.

When Ning Pengpeng left Pingyao Mansion and went to the capital, he still opened the curtain of the car window, staring at Pingyao Fucheng, which was gradually disappearing, without speaking for a long time.

Most of the small Pingyao mansion has been corroded from top to bottom.

For the rest, it is difficult even if they want not to be corroded.

Those who can maintain and slime are already considered good.
