Chapter 137

This time it was a big blow, and a general stood up and said: "Ji Shi, please calm down. Chen Aquan has been in the army for many years, and he has been promoted to the captain after his meritorious service. He is not the kind of treacherous person. Please ask Shi Shi to let the sufferer come out." , face to face, if it is true, I will be willing to be punished."

Apparently Chen Aquan was a good person in the army, even his superiors, many of them came forward to intercede.

Taking a long breath, he motioned for everyone to pull Chen Aquan up, Luo Yan asked: "The sufferer is here, Chen Aquan, please tell me what is going on first?" Seeing the situation just now, there is clearly something hidden here , so Luo Yan didn't want to wrong his subordinates for nothing.

"Remember Shi Rong. This person is called Chen Wude, and he is a humble uncle. He served in the army in a humble way, and he didn't go home for several years. This time when he arrived in Jingzhou, his subordinates really missed their parents too much. I sneaked out of the camp yesterday and found my home based on my memory, only to find that it was already occupied. The subordinates jumped over the wall on impulse and went in. Unexpectedly, I found out that the owner of the mansion was actually my uncle. .And my young sister was treated like a servant."

As he spoke, Chen Aquan began to choke with sobs, and tears slowly shed from the corners of his eyes: "Humblely, I found a chance to find my poor sister quietly. After asking, I found out that my uncle, who is not as good as a beast, took advantage of three Years ago, there was a military riot at home, and when my parents died, my family property was taken away. Not only that, but in order to prevent my sister from going out and talking nonsense, she was confined in the back house and used as a rough envoy."

He kept beating the ground, and the ground was wet with tears, Chen Aquan was almost speechless.

Seeing this, Luo Yan began to ask: "So you're not angry, and you asked Chen Wude to argue?" Nodding, Chen Aquan continued: "When Humble found him, he was also surprised. Humble thought that I have some savings now, no I would like to compete with him for the family property, just thinking that he would treat the humble sister well because of the old relationship. Who knew that this fellow would yell at him, saying that the family property belonged to him, and that the humble sister died at the time when both parents died, in order to bury her Parents, voluntarily sold themselves to his house. Who is Chen Wude? Three years ago, he was just a ranger in Jingzhou city. If he hadn't conspired to seize the humble family property, how could he be rich today. Seeing that he is so shameless, the subordinates were out of breath. I hit him with my hands, and within two hits, he summoned a dozen servants, and seeing that the situation was not good, he fled back to the barracks."

After listening to Chen Aquan's narration, Luo Yan looked at Chen Wude, signaled the generals to let go, and continued to ask: "What he said is true?"

Standing on the ground, Chen Wude's feet were still a little trembling, but when Luo Yan asked about himself, he shouted hoarsely: "General Mingjian, I don't know him at all. Yesterday he broke into the mansion and stole the gold and silver. The matter has been seen by the little family and neighbors. I beg the little general to uphold justice for the little one."

After thinking for a while, Luo Yan said to Changsun Wuji: "Changsun Shangshu, man, I am in custody for the time being. Please verify the things Chen Aquan said one by one. What was Chen Wude like three years ago? Ask the old people in other cities Ask clearly. If my person is guilty, he should be killed. If Chen Wude told a lie, then, I hope Changsun Shangshu can hand over this matter to me."

Changsun Wuji was also pissed off by this incident.

He was aware of the order Luo Yan issued the day before yesterday, and he was also shocked by Luo Yan's statement that there are criminals in the army who commit crimes and will be dealt with strictly.Unexpectedly, Luo Yan, who is usually very elegant, has such a murderous intent in his heart.

If it is true that Chen Wude is framing Chen Aquan, it will not only slap Luo Yan in the face and almost kill him by mistake, but even slap his eldest grandson Wuji in the face—they came to the door without finding out the truth of the matter. How to explain to Luo Yan.

At this moment, Luo Yan had the intention of taking over the case, and Changsun Wuji was also happy to show Luo Yan's face, so he agreed immediately.

As soon as Changsun Wuji took the little officials away, Luo Yan did not tell the generals to retreat, but ordered Chen Aquan and Chen Wude to be separated into two separate rooms for the soldiers to watch.Then put a few more braziers in the main hall, inviting the generals to sit on the ground.

"I will wait with you until the eldest grandson Shangshu brings news. Before that, let me tell you about Chen Aquan leaving the camp privately. Who is his immediate boss, stand up and answer."

A young general stood up from the seat, bowed and said, "The last general, Qian Ning, pays his respects to Luo Jishi."

Nodding his head, Luo Yan asked: "According to the military order, what crime should I do if I go out privately?"

"Twenty rods." Qian Ning's answer was decisive. Military orders are like knives hanging over the heads of soldiers, so naturally they will not forget them.

"Well, no matter what happens next, Chen Aquan, with a staff of forty, even if he dies, I will finish the beating before going. As for you, Qian Ning, as a superior officer, you don't even care about a few school lieutenants under your command. Hold on, take your own twenty army sticks, you can be convinced." There are only a few captains, and Chen Aquan has been out for a long time, but Qian Ning doesn't even know, how can he do it if he is not punished.

Lowering his head, Qian Ning said: "The general is convinced, and when he was young, he went to get twenty army sticks." Seeing Qian Ning like this, Luo Yan didn't say anything more. After letting him sit down, Luo Yan said with emotion: " Military discipline is the key to defeating the enemy in our ranks. This is true on the battlefield, and it is even more so off the battlefield. If Chen Aquan's matter today was placed on the battlefield, how could there be many questions? It’s already been killed. Don’t you just have the heart to send your brother to the beheading platform because of your own negligence?”

Luo Yan's few words made everyone feel ashamed, and they all confessed their mistakes.

Changsun Wuji's speed was also very fast, and he investigated everything clearly in just an hour.

Before noon, Changsun Wuji brought the servants to the main hall. Seeing that these people had been waiting here, Changsun Wuji didn't talk nonsense, and said: "After verification, what Chen Aquan said is true. Years ago, he was a knight-errant in the city, and his family was dilapidated. However, after the Turkic invasion, he changed his identity and inherited Chen Aquan’s family property. The neighbors all thought that Chen Aquan’s family was dead, so they had to acquiesce in this matter. The official used the money, and this matter was suppressed."

Hearing this, they didn't care about being rude, and several generals stood up and started cursing.

Waving his hand to calm the scene down, Luo Yan asked Changsun Wuji: "Have you already recorded the statement that Changsun Shangshu said?" Let me deal with it, can the grandson Shangshu agree?" Originally, he wanted to throw the mess to Luo Yan, but when Luo Yan asked proactively, Changsun Wuji immediately agreed: "After all, this matter involves a school lieutenant, and he is also a sixth-rank official. , being framed like this, it’s okay if you don’t deal with it well.”

Luo Yan wanted to pay his respects to his eldest grandson Wuji, and after thanking him, he invited his eldest grandson Wuji to see how he dealt with it.This will delay the whole morning's office work because of Chen Wude's matter, so there is no time to take care of this matter.If Luo Yan makes a fuss, just go ahead and report the result at the end.

Falsely accusing an official of the imperial court is a capital crime no matter what, it is nothing more than a different way of death.

Watching Changsun Wuji go away, Luo Yan returned to the main hall, met the generals' eyes, and shouted loudly: "The generals obey the order, and each battalion dispatches [-] elite soldiers. After a quarter, the school will gather."

Although they didn't understand what Luo Yan's intention was, they still obeyed Luo Yan's order and went to pick their own people.

Let the guards escort Chen Wude and Chen Aquan, Luo Yan also arrived at the school grounds.Although each battalion selected 20 people, and the number of people assembled in the school grounds was only two to three hundred, the surroundings of the school grounds were still full of people watching the excitement.

At this time, Luo Yan didn't care about the order. Standing on the general platform, Luo Yan said loudly: "Now there is a school lieutenant, Chen Aquan, under strict orders, he went out privately. He caned forty and executed immediately."

The personal guards dragged Chen Aquan down, and when Luo Yan nodded, the execution began.The torture stick with a thick arm fell on Chen Aquan's body, and blood fell down after a few strokes.This scene made the soldiers palpitate.The school lieutenant was beaten like this, and if he was put on him, he would not be beaten to death.

Seeing Chen Wude's smug face, Luo Yan didn't say much, but quietly waited for Chen Aquan's stick duty to end.

Forty rods, without a trace of water, after the beating, although it was winter, Chen Aquan's body was bleeding.After ordering the doctor accompanying the army to apply the wound medicine, Luo Yan walked to Chen Aquan's side and asked, "Can you hold on? Next, I'll take you to a good show."

Fortunately, Chen Aquan's health is not bad, after being beaten up like this, he is still not angry, but said a little weakly: "It's all according to the secretary's order."

Patting Chen Aquan's arm, Luo Yan walked up to the general platform and asked: "On the battlefield, someone injured my brother, what should you do?"

There was only a burst of "kill, kill, kill" off the field, which broke the biting cold wind in an instant.

Nodding in satisfaction, Luo Yan said: "Now that we are on the battlefield, there are still people who want to borrow our knife to kill our brothers. What should you do?"

At this moment, even the surrounding soldiers shouted with their chests out: "Kill, kill, kill."

"In that case, you guys standing in the field, follow me." No nonsense, let the soldiers carry the seriously injured Chen Aquan, Luo Yan let someone lead the way, and rode his horse to Chen Wude's mansion.

When they arrived at the place, Luo Yan asked a group of soldiers to surround the mansion, brought Chen Wude and Chen Aquan up, then stood at the door of Chen's house, and gave an order: "After the door is broken, call everyone in the mansion. Come to the door. Remember, don’t touch a single thing inside, it belongs to your brothers who were born and died with you, if anyone dares to stretch out his claws, I will chop off his head.”

After finishing speaking, regardless of Chen Wude's pale face, he stood at the door and waited for the soldiers to act.

In a short time, this group of wolves and tigers searched Chen's house to the bottom. No one could escape, and they were all brought to the door.Let Chen Aquan point out his younger sister, seeing that the little girl seemed to have suffered another severe beating, the anger in Luo Yan's heart became more and more intense.

At this moment, many people gathered in front of the Chen residence.

Luo Yan stood at the door and said to Chen Wude: "My soldier, he made a mistake, and I will punish him unambiguously. But if someone tries to use our knife to kill our brother, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless." If you dare to frame my brother and provoke my brain, then wait for my knife to fall on your neck."

After finishing speaking, he drew out his horizontal knife and killed Chen Wude with one blow.

Shaking off the blood on the knife, Luo Yan said to the soldiers beside him: "As long as you do what you want, whoever dares to bully you, just come to me."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the remaining manpower to guard the population of Chen's house, and went to find Zhangsun Wuji by himself.

The anger in my heart has come out, but the aftermath must be dealt with by Changsun Wuji.
