Just as the Criminal Investigation Bureau was feeling relieved that they had vented their anger, an even bigger problem came.
It turned out that one of the four soldiers who had been beaten up was called Wang Liansheng. He was about forty-five or forty-six years old.
I'm sick. That day, when he was slightly better, he was dragged by his companions to the Fire Palace for a drink. When he came back, he caught a cold and was tied up in the Criminal Investigation Bureau.
Frightened. This time, he suffered another 50 blows and his ear was pierced. As soon as he carried him back to the barracks, he fainted and died that night.
It was over. When the soldiers in the town heard this, they were furious and threatened to kill Zeng Guofan.
The next morning, Deng Shaoliang came to see Bao Qibao and told him about yesterday's situation and Wang Liansheng's death.
Again. Bao Qibao was furious. He waved the long pipe in his hand and shouted,"Alright! Zeng Guofan is a son of a bitch
How dare he do whatever he wants within my authority? How can I tolerate him! Deng Shaoliang, carry Wang Liansheng's body to the Criminal Investigation Bureau.
Go, ask the Criminal Investigation Bureau to wear mourning clothes for him and pay for his life with his life. Just say that I, Bao Qibao, said it. Look at Zeng Guofan, this son of a b * tch.
What ability!"
When Deng Shaoliang saw Bao Qibao backing him up like this, he immediately became arrogant. He gathered 300 soldiers to carry Wang Liansheng's body.
He came to the Criminal Investigation Bureau aggressively.
When Zeng Guofan learned that Wang Liansheng had been killed, he was shocked, but he quickly calmed down and ordered the door to be closed.
He ignored any curses from the soldiers. Deng Shaoliang didn't dare to rush to the gate. He knew that if he caused the Green Camp and the Tuanding Fire to start together,
Come, he wouldn't be able to keep his head.
The soldiers outside the trial hall shouted for a long time, but no one answered. Deng Shaoliang asked people to compare Bao Qibao's words with his own.
There were three ideas in total. They were written on white paper, pasted on the wall, placed the body at the door, and then left with the town guards.
Kang Fu walked around outside the door and came in to tell Zeng Guofan,"There's a piece of white paper outside the door.
I have three requests."
"What do you mean?"
"First, the Criminal Investigation Bureau will hold a funeral for Wang Liansheng.”
"Humph!" Zeng Guofan sneered.
"The second rule is that the soldier who killed Wang Liansheng must pay with his life.”
"Dream on!"
"Third, give Wang Liansheng's family a thousand taels.”
"Deng Shaoliang is daydreaming!" Zeng Guofan shouted," Kangfu, take a few men and move Wang Liansheng's body away. I'll…"
The Yamen of the Judicial Bureau had to do things every day. How could they let this stinky corpse block their way?”
"Slow down." Kang Fu was about to leave when Luo Zenan quickly called out,"Disheng, I think it's like this: Buy a coffin first, General
Lian Sheng's corpse was put into a coffin and carried to an empty room. On such a hot day, it was not good to leave the corpse outside the investigation room. what do you think
And?"
Zeng Guofan said nothing. Luo Zenan asked Kang Fu to take care of it. After Kang Fu left, Luo Zenan said,"Di Sheng, I think this matter
He still had to discuss it with Luo Zhongcheng.”
Zeng Guofan remembered Luo Bingzhang's attitude yesterday and knew that he couldn't come up with a good idea, but it was an important matter and he couldn't leave it alone.
"Let's invite Pushan over to tell him first. I'll visit him tonight."”
After a while, Wang He came back and said unhappily,""Luo Zhongcheng's family said that he was frightened yesterday and fell ill in bed today.
I haven't seen any guests for two days."
Zeng Guofan's face darkened as he cursed in his heart,""Luo Bingzhang, you're deliberately embarrassing me!”on
"Forget it if you don't want to come!" Wang He said. After saying that, he sat down on the chair and let out a sigh of relief. He clenched his fists tightly.
"You can't just be angry," Luo Zenan said softly."This matter needs to be handled carefully." A life is at stake. Even if the imperial court knows, it's not right.
It's a good thing."
Zeng Guofan said,"Luo Shan, it's obvious that Bao Qibao and Deng Shaoliang are stirring up trouble. How can you beat someone to death with fifty sticks?"
It's reasonable."
"Yes, I am. Could it be that Wang Liansheng has been sick for a long time?"
Luo Zenan's words reminded Zeng Guofan,"Luo Shan, you're right. Wang Liansheng must have been sick first.”
"However, Wang Liansheng always died under the batons of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. You said he was sick, but where's the evidence?”
"Send someone to investigate." Zeng Guofan thought for a moment and said,"Who should I ask?"
The soldiers had always been united against the outside world. Even if Wang Liansheng was sick, they wouldn't say anything now.”
"Ask Yang Zaifu to go. He has been training in Chenzhou for half a year and has some connections with the town guards.
Come on."
Three days later, Yang Zaifu found out that Wang Liansheng was sick before he was beaten with the military staff through some old connections.
The bill was found in the Lisheng Pharmacy.
The cousin of He Yuan, the owner of Lisheng Pharmacy, had been betrothed to Zeng Guofan's eldest son, Ji Ze, as his wife. The two families were married. He Yuan is willing to do this
Come out and testify. After listening to Yang Zaifu's report, Zeng Guofan said happily,""This is great. Carry Wang Liansheng's body back to his room.
Damn, the Criminal Investigation Bureau was not responsible for his death.”
"Disheng, you can't say that." Luo Ze Nan said," According to the military law, when dealing with officers and soldiers who have committed crimes, if they are sick, they can be punished.
Slow down the implementation. Bao Qibao and Deng Shaoliang can also report according to this. I think both sides should take a step back and quickly settle this matter.”
Zeng Guofan was not happy in his heart. He thought about it and thought that if Bao Qibao really complained according to this, he would not be able to get away with it.
"How about this, you represent the Criminal Investigation Bureau to negotiate with Deng Shaoliang. We can't let them take advantage of us."”
When Luo Zenan showed the bill of Wang Liansheng picking up medicine at Lisheng Pharmacy, and He Yuan personally proved that Wang Liansheng had a cold before he was sentenced,
At the critical moment, Deng Shaoliang's arrogance was restrained a lot. After bargaining, the two sides finally set three conditions: 1. The Judicial Bureau sends people to escort the king.
Second, the case bureau will compensate the pension fee of 500 taels of silver; 3. The two men who killed Wang Liansheng were expelled.
Zeng Guofan was very unhappy when he saw these three conditions, but he knew that under the current circumstances, this was the only way to make the soldiers of the town work hard.
Qiang agreed. In order to comfort the two men who killed Wang Liansheng, Zeng Guofan asked Luo Zenan to give them ten taels of silver each.
They were given special permission to come back in two years.
