my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 320

Zhang Anshi looked at Lieutenant Liu.

Lieutenant Liu Xian only felt terrified all over his body.

He suddenly realized...the other party might have been waiting here.

It's just...how can you explain the servants of the Zhaomo Institute who were just evacuated?
Could it be that just now, they are also these people?

How did they know that he would come here tonight?
And how do you know...

In the blink of an eye, Lieutenant Liu knew... that he was completely exposed.

Yes, even knowing this, then basically what happened here must be clear.

He was terrified, and finally bowed down without hesitation, saying: "This... this... this... this subordinate is just... this subordinate is just following orders... following orders. This subordinate wants to report, to report..."

Zhang Anshi smiled grimly at him: "Really? Prosecution? Who wants you to report it! You Nanling County Lieutenant Liu, a family of [-] people, are you going to report this? Or are you and the county magistrate of Nanling County, Latin America together?" , took Yao Gongqiang away, and beat and tortured all kinds of people along the way. Is it to report this? Or, to report yourself. Today... it is so bold that it wants to kill people and destroy the body. Not only Yao Gong’s bones will not be spared, and even the other so-called medical households that you forcibly brought here will all be killed?”

Upon hearing this, Lieutenant Liu's face suddenly turned pale and terribly pale.

He was trembling with fright, shaking his lips and said, "I...I..."

An officer on the side cried out: "Your little one is wronged, this little one didn't do it voluntarily...the little one will be exposed..."

Zhang Anshi didn't even look at him, but only nodded with his hands.

After a short time, a school captain stepped forward with a spear, and stabbed directly at the guard with a spear.

"Uh..." the guard wailed.

However, this steel spear pierced through the back shoulder and penetrated directly, so the blood mist sprayed thin, like a grasshopper nailed to the ground, the body began to writhe and twitch desperately, and the person was breathless for a while, howling.

Immediately afterwards, the captain kicked him on the shoulder, and in the dark night, he let out a mournful roar. Taking advantage of the situation, the captain pulled out the steel spear.

The blood splashed like a fountain again, the captain's face turned pale for an instant, and there was no more blood, and after a while, he fell into a pool of blood, apparently dead!

Lieutenant Liu County was already frightened out of his wits, yelling in horror: "Don't...don't kill me...don't kill me..."

The corners of Zhang Anshi's lips twitched into a smile, but the smile looked ghostly and gloomy in the night, and said: "Don't worry, I won't kill you. This servant deserves to die, so I sent him on his way. After all, he is just an accessory, and the crime is relatively light. It's not Jin Yiwei's turn to spend a lot of trouble, just give him a good time."

Zhang Anshi paused, and then said: "It's just you...you want to die, but it's not so easy."

After Liu Xianwei listened, he suddenly understood something.

What a smart man he is, he couldn't help gritting his teeth at this moment, and said shrillly, "Kill...kill me...but I beg...to die."

Zhang Anshi ignored him, turned around, pressed the handle of the knife on his waist, and shouted vigorously, "Take down County Lieutenant Liu, and let the rest be killed."

The voice fell.

In the darkness, the school captains in all directions rushed forward with their spears.

Behind Lieutenant Liu, pleading and begging voices came out: "Forgive me..."

"There are old people on the top, and young people on the bottom..."

"Uh……"

"Ah..."

Crash, clatter...

The men in armor surrounded the dozens of guards like iron barrels, and then pierced them with steel spears one by one.

Wherever the strong wind carried by the steel spear passed, it rained blood all over.

Soon, this individual could no longer move.

At dawn, the sky was just breaking.

The world has become a kind of strange silence again.

After this dead silence.

The warehouses were opened one by one.

There were still some people who were sleeping soundly inside, gradually waking up.

The 'doctors' who were still ignorant looked at the sea of ​​iron and the forest of steel formed by a pair of armor and steel spears outside, and they were all too scared to vent their anger.

Zhang Anshi went in, and saw that the place was very messy, he didn't care to wrinkle his eyebrows, and said, "Where is the monk?"

Someone pointed to a corner and said, "In...over there..."

Zhang Anshi took a deep breath, took a step forward, but suddenly stopped.

He couldn't bear to step forward, glanced at the people here, but first ordered: "The people here... can all go, settle down first, find a place for them to rest, arrange meals, and distribute two taels of silver to each person Toll."

As soon as this remark came out, the doctors did not move at all.

None of them responded.

Seeing their reaction, Zhang Anshi couldn't help being surprised, and said, "What's the matter?"

At this moment, the doctors all seemed to panic.

Finally someone was bolder and said cautiously: "My little ones...don't...don't dare..."

This is the truth, where in the world is there such a good thing?On the contrary, it made people feel that Zhang Anshi was trying to kill them.

At this time, Zhang Anshi was obviously not in the mood to explain too much to them, so he said rudely and simply: "Get out of here."

With this loud roar, all the doctors felt that it was safe, and rushed out as if they had been pardoned.

All of a sudden, those standing 'doctors' were all gone.

Only then did Zhang Anshi continue to walk in step by step.

In the corner, lay three people.

One of them, Zhang Anshi is very familiar with.

The old monk fell to the ground... mixed with the filthy mud.

Who would have thought that there would be such a strange person in such a place?

Zhang Anshi stepped forward and touched the old monk. For some reason, the corners of his eyes were moist. He took a deep breath. The old monk's body was very cold. He tried his pulse...but there was almost...no movement.

Chen Li and the others had followed, sighed, and said, "My lord... the coffin is ready."

"Don't worry." Zhang Anshi shook his head, his eyes still fixed on the old monk.

Then, Zhang Anshi took off the old monk's monk's robe, and put his hand on his heart.

Zhang Anshi frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Li asked.

Zhang Anshi said: "It's a little strange. According to Wu Zhizhan's confession, he has been dead for two days, but the body has no signs of corruption."

Chen Lidao: "This is an eminent monk, if you want to come..."

Zhang Anshi shouted coldly: "Nonsense, all monks are the same."

Chen Li knew very well that Zhang Anshi had been in a low mood all the way here, and at this moment he was too frightened to vent his anger.

Zhang Anshi's hand was still tightly attached to Yao Guangxiao's heart, as if trying to confirm something, he said: "His heart seems to be a little warm, but...you try it, I'm not sure."

Chen Li also tried Zhang Anshi's method, carefully looked at Zhang Anshi's expression, and finally frowned and said: "I can't try it, it seems to be there, and it doesn't seem to be."

While Zhang Anshi was hesitating, someone outside said wearily, "Your Majesty is coming."

As soon as the voice fell, Zhu Di walked in with a group of ministers and eunuchs.

The small warehouse was quickly overcrowded.

Zhu Di stepped forward, already filled with grief, he knelt down beside Yao Guangxiao's corpse, tears streaming down his face.

He only cried for a moment, then opened his eyes suddenly, and said in grief and indignation: "Blood debt must be paid in blood."

It was said almost through gritted teeth.

"Your Majesty." Behind him, Minister of the Household Department Xia Yuanji said: "It's better to restrain the bones early."

Zhu Di nodded in despair.

Zhang Anshi still couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I think... Yao Gong's bones... are a bit weird. His body... is cold and has no pulse, but... it is neither stiff nor rotten..."

After hearing this, Zhu Di said, "This must be because he will not die with peace..."

After hearing this, all the ministers could not help but sigh.

To be honest, although the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had heard all kinds of rumors about Yao Guangxiao, no one hated him.

Because although Yao Guangxiao had the emperor's extreme trust, he never seized power or had disputes with others.

Otherwise, how could Yang Rong, Hu Guang and others have their day?

Jin Zhong wept bitterly. He and Yao Guangxiao were confidantes and friends. At this time, he choked up and said: "The virtuous monk, I think it is like this. I heard that the Taoist monk in the Song Dynasty died without corruption. After the transformation, in the past few months, it is still lifelike...Yao Gong...Yao Gong, he..."

After finishing speaking, Jin Zhong choked up and was speechless for a while.

Everyone nodded.

Obviously, Zhu Di also wanted to hear these words, and nodded with tears in his eyes, "Yes, yes...the imperial doctors also take a look."

Several imperial doctors hurriedly stepped forward to inspect it, one imperial doctor got up and said: "Your Majesty, Duke Yao passed away, but it is indeed unusual... This is a great virtuous monk..."

This result is what everyone is willing to accept.

Only Zhang Anshi did not believe such nonsense.

After all... He is a person who produces relics with energy, a person who produces relics with energy, how could he believe this?

At that moment, Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, it is better not to enter the coffin yet, it is better to find a carriage with soft cushions inside..."

Zhu Di was obviously not in the mood to pay more attention to these things at this time, and just nodded.

After a while, someone carried Yao Guangxiao's body out, Zhang Anshi ordered people: "Come here, get some warm water, and feed Yao Gong."

Chen Li looked embarrassed: "My lord, it's already..."

Zhang Anshi suddenly turned cold and said: "Go if you are told."

Chen Li no longer dared to object.

For the other two corpses here, Zhang Anshi also ordered people to restrain themselves and find a place to bury them.

Such places... have extremely poor sanitary conditions, worse than prisons. These so-called medical households don't really want to go to treat people during the epidemic. They are afraid that they will die before they are released.

Zhang Anshi only felt shocking.

Zhu Di said at this time: "Has everything been arranged properly?"

Zhang Anshidao: "This prefecture, all the city gates, have been surrounded. And in the counties below, there are also Jinyiwei's thousands of households who split up and go together. The humble order is... to catch them all and leave no one behind."

Zhu Di nodded: "Where is Fucheng?"

"The three city gates are all ambushed. The hundreds of elites brought by His Majesty and ministers are enough to deal with the situation."

Zhu Di said: "Then go, and meet Jian Yi for a while."

Zhu Di has begun to calm down.

But under this calmness, it seemed that something was brewing.

…………

It was early morning.

But the vast majority of people did not sleep.

Jian Yi barely recovered from his illness.

But still very weak.

Wu Huan came excitedly and said, "Enfu... things are settled."

Jian Yi only looked at Wu Huan quietly, and said, "Sure, how?"

Wu Huan said: "It's all thanks to Fan Tongzhi and our concerted efforts. Rest assured, there will be no future troubles in Enfu."

As he said that, he recounted the matter excitedly, and said: "Just now, the students have seen the fire in the direction of the mill, and now that the corpses are being destroyed, everyone is unanimous in saying that even the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is also a student of the En House. Li, the other three jurisprudence, whether it is the Metropolitan Procuratorate or the Dali Temple, even if they think about it, they dare not expose your shortcomings in the Enfu."

"The only thing to worry about is Jinyiwei, but... don't worry about it. Jinyiwei dare not come to Ningguo Mansion. If they dare to come, let people know that the scholars in the world, as well as the Hanlin and Yushi of the Manchu Dynasty, are afraid. They are going to make a fuss, these eagle dogs of Jinyiwei, heh..."

"It's done well, it's done very well." Jian Yi said wearily: "You guys are really impeccable in handling things. I never thought that things could be done so neatly and neatly."

Wu Huan said cheerfully with a bit of pride that could not be concealed: "En Mansion, this Ningguo Mansion is up and down, in order to protect your safety, and to teach the world that your benevolent government is in Ningguo Mansion..."

Jian Yi said: "It's to protect you."

Wu Huan hurriedly said: "It's not a pity for the students to be smashed to pieces, but what the students are worried about is...someone is using it to attack you in Enfu to deny the teachings of Confucius and Mencius."

Jian Yi smiled, but the smile was bleak: "But Yao Gong is dead."

"This monk has always been vicious, what is the pity for an unfaithful and unrighteous person?"

Jian Yi suddenly looked at Wu Huan.

He found it incredible.

Jian Yi's life has been smooth and smooth. From the very beginning, he served as an edict in the court and was very noble.Zhu Yuanzhang also admired him very much. Even though he encountered some setbacks during the Jianwen period, Emperor Jianwen maintained the situation of preferential treatment of scholars and still did not embarrass him, but he did not value it as much as before.

He has been on the rise, he has been in the temple for a long time, and he pays attention to everything he does. The people he comes into contact with are all dignitaries. Even if they are against each other, they are still courteous when they meet.

He originally thought that the world was like this.

But now he just realized that in some places, this is not the case at all.The ruthlessness of these people, the vicious methods, and the low bottom line far exceeded his imagination.

What was even more frightening was that Wu Huan in front of him said these words plausibly.

Jian Yi even believed that what he said was sincere, that is...his favorite student, in fact, deeply believed that he was on the side of justice.

But for justice, it is enough to distort all the people who were killed into traitors and thieves.

Anyway, the article is in their hands, pointing a deer into a horse, turning black and white. After thousands of years, they are still gentlemen and saints.

No matter how many people they killed, it didn't matter what dirty deeds they did.

"Hahaha...hahaha..." Jian Yi suddenly laughed.

Wu Huan was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Enfu...why are you laughing?"

"I laughed at Wang Jiefu for blocking cars with mantises and mayflies shaking trees. I laughed at Sima Junshi and other gentlemen...their names go down in history and are models of scholars."

Wu Huan said: "En Mansion, what's wrong with you? En Mansion...has done great things regardless of small details. Now En Mansion's illness has improved a little bit, and now all the officials outside, and... all the gentry, are looking forward to being able to be with En Mansion. See, I beg En Manor to go out and meet them at this time, and they will feel more relieved when they see En Manor."

Only then did Jian Yi stop laughing, and said calmly, "They're all here?"

"Yes, they're all here." Wu Huan said: "Enfu is the backbone of everyone. If Enfu is willing to meet them, they...will be...excited. Besides...you also want to discuss about exemption from taxation This time... the plague, all the counties are exhausted, if En Mansion can..."

Without waiting for him to continue, Jian Yi said abruptly: "You go out first, the old man straightens his clothes first... let's meet everyone again."

Wu Huan was overjoyed, and quickly said: "Then... the students are waiting outside."

"No, you go first, the old man will come later."

Wu Huan nodded: "Yes."

Wu Huan breathed a long sigh of relief at this time. After several days of busy work, the matter was finally settled.

Wu Huan came out of the dormitory, and there were already a lot of friends waiting anxiously outside.

As soon as Wu Huan came out, everyone stepped forward one after another, "How is Mr. Jian's condition?"

"It's great, I'll come out to meet everyone later, I'll go to the yamen hall first."

Everyone was overjoyed, and followed Wu Huan and others to the yamen hall.

Here, fellow acquaintance Fan Yi, as well as many officials, as well as the gentry and sages from the village who heard some rumors and came to the prefecture to inquire about the news were waiting here.

After meeting Wu Huan, Wu Huan told the news that Mr. Jian was going to meet everyone in person, and everyone was overjoyed.

Many people smiled and said: "Mr. Jian is a virtuous and virtuous corporal. In the future, it will become a good story through the ages."

"I have admired Lord Jian for a long time."

Fan Yi was looking forward to the news from Zhaomo Institute, but he walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, frowning slightly and said, "Why hasn't Lieutenant Liu come back?"

Wu Huan seemed rather complacent, and said happily at this time: "Don't worry, Mr. Fan, it's just a few trivial matters. Now... the most important thing is to respond to the demands of the people. The people have been tossed for a long time these days, so they should think about it." The way... to give some favors."

Fan Yi nodded.

When those sages and gentry heard these words, their faces immediately blushed, and they all looked at Wu Huan gratefully, eager to try.

It's not unreasonable for Wu Huan, a mere Muyou, to be so powerful in Ningguo Mansion.On the one hand, he is a disciple of Duke Jian, on the other hand, he cooperates very well with the local gentry and village sages, and everyone trusts him.

But Fan Yi seemed a little dissatisfied in his heart. He is a fellow acquaintance, and he has also contributed a lot to the favors given to the people.But Wu Huan rushed to say it first at this time, isn't this clearly asking for credit and buying it?

In this way, it seems that he, Fan Yi, is not a human being inside and outside.

Although he felt uncomfortable, Fan Yi felt uncomfortable.

At this moment, someone said: "From the outside of the government office, a team of people has arrived."

After everyone heard this, they cheered up, Fan Yi said pleasantly: "This must be Lieutenant Liu and the others coming, haha... let's go and pick them up, they have put in a lot of effort."

Everyone also felt a big stone fall to the ground.

So they rushed out.

So Fan Yi, Wu Huan and others walked to the gate of the government office excitedly.

Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire.

clap clap clap...

It's from the end of the street.

Immediately afterwards, when everyone was in a state of shock, they saw the first few servants outside the mansion's yamen directly fell to the ground.

Immediately, there were horseshoes on all sides, and the sound of armor rubbing and boots was everywhere.

"Not good, Houya is surrounded by people."

Another human said: "Someone...someone...the streets on the left and right...are all people..."

Ka... Ka... Ka... Ka... Ka...

The streets outside the government office are paved with blue bricks.

The heavy boots made a rattling sound when they stepped on the bricks.

And the sound of boots was short and dense.

It's like a mountain rain is about to come.

Fan Yi's face turned pale with shock, he lifted his wing cap, and exclaimed: "Could it be that there are thieves..."

"Quick...quick...protect the government office..."

But none of the guards had the guts to go out.

There is only one Dutou, who is Fan Yi's confidant. At this time, he felt quite a bit of asking for credit. Seeing this, he shouted: "Fan Gong, don't worry, I have dealt with all the good men around the mansion, and I have some friendship. The villain will go meet for a while."

He went out aggressively, and as soon as he left the gate of the mansion, he saw a dense army of horses, all pressing their knives, or holding firecrackers to advance on both sides of the street. A nearby alley was also full of people, and even on the ridge, a group of people dressed in fish suits The people of the city also began to arm their waists on the ridges of the roofs, or peeped here.

This is all because he is not afraid of seeing thieves at all. In Ningguo Mansion, which hero is not his brother who has worshiped him?

But now... he actually saw officers and soldiers... real officers and soldiers.

bang bang bang...

As soon as they saw someone, the sound of gunfire immediately exploded.

Before he even realized what was going on, his whole body was riddled with holes, his body was like a water polo with countless holes punctured, and blood spurted out from many places.

He just yelled: "Oops...the wind is pulling..."

Immediately, he fell down.

There was a mess in the government office.

Fan Yi was already scared out of his wits, he yelled at Wu Huan and the others: "Quick... Hurry up and report to Mr. Jian... Mr. Jian is here..."

But Wu Huan knew that Mr. Jian could not count on him.What is this... this is absolute force, what is the use of Jian Gonglai?

What he lacks now is Xu Da and Chang Yuchun.

So Wu Huan shouted, commanding the guards: "Quick, quickly guard the door, the thieves are fierce, once I teach them to kill them, I will die."

Only then did the guards slash their swords in a panic, and set up defenses at the door in a swarm.

But right now.

bang...

The deafening roar shattered the eardrums of many people.

Immediately, gunpowder smoke rose from the wall of the signing room on the right, and the wall collapsed. Everyone ran away with their heads in their arms. The people guarding the government office suddenly found that on their right...a huge gap appeared.

Immediately afterwards, countless well-armored people came in like a flood gate.

Fan Yangnao with an iron shell, covered in armor, and a sharp long knife.

Under the early morning light, it is full of dazzling brilliance.
