Capital.

Since this Chongzhen Lord ascended the throne, the first good place of the emperor's township here has not been peaceful, although Jiannu has retired, but many victims in Hebei are still full of Jingshi streets even if it is more than six months, there is nowhere to go, and they live by begging.

Life is forced to take risks! The security of the capital division is unprecedentedly poor, the small doors and small households in the outer city, the ordinary people are miserable, and even the inner city where the ministers and nobles live is occasionally encountered by chickens and dogs.

Andingfang, the settlement of nobles and eunuchs, on the streets of the stone lions and wealthy families, there is the sound of bangzi from time to time, which is a patrol composed of various wealthy slaves.

Moved the capital to Beijing for more than 200 years, for the first time even Shuntianfu was helpless against the security of Beijing, these months, resigned two terms of Shuntianfu Yin, stroke for a term, the first time that the power position to show off on weekdays was not good, these high-ranking big men also had to solve it themselves, and gathered the people who could fight in the caretaker's home, and were optimistic about their own one-third of an acre.

The location of the mansion also shows the location of the owner of the mansion, and some corner mansions, the slave patrols formed by these mansions are also snobbish and do not scruple.

However, this Dingbei Houfu is at the very edge of this Andingfang.

In the middle of the night, it was like splashing ink, in the silent courtyard, there was only the swaying sound of trees, the corner door creaked open, the harsh friction sound of the door shaft was particularly harsh, and the whole body was covered with a black cloak, and a petite figure hurriedly walked in with a small servant.

"Coming back?"

As soon as he walked to the vestibule, the old voice made the figure owner pause, and then looked towards the corridor in surprise.

"Father, haven't fallen asleep yet?"

"People are old! Feeling less! In the future, lie down in the coffin, some are sleeping time, old man, I'm fine, but you're Jiao'er, it's not long after you are out of confinement, you should rest more!"

"Going to Jixiang Temple again?"

"This army is in chaos, the concubine is afraid of ......, and she can't help much in Beijing, so she can only go to the temple more and pray for the lord."

With her head down, Chen Jiao said calmly, but Mao Wenlong, who could hear it, snorted again in annoyance.

"What's so good about this stinky boy, it's worth making you so worried, it's been a few months since Kai'er was born, and he hasn't even had a big name as a father until now, what kind of system!"

"Jiao'er, it's up to your family!"

"Father is kind, but after all, this is the eldest son of the master, and the concubine still wants to ......"

"Okay!"

Looking at Chen Jiao's appearance with her head down, Mao Wenlong shook his head helplessly again: "Tomorrow, I'll repair the book for this bastard boy, I'm busy with work, and I don't want my home?" The old man scolded him for you! If he can't think of a name, he won't think about it! ”

"Father!"

"That's it!"

With a wave of his palm, Mao Wenlong settled the matter domineeringly, and then the stubborn old man went back to the house with his hands behind his back and hummed.

Seeing him go, Chen Jiao bowed slightly, holding the basket to go to the temple, and she also hurriedly walked to the back house.

A ray of moonlight came in through the window, shining in the stroller, the big fat boy wrapped in flower cloth was sleeping soundly, looking at his peaceful appearance, tired after a day, Chen Jiao's tranquil face also appeared a smile.

…………

seems to be lonely, but in fact, Mao Jue's eyes have never left this small Hou Mansion again.

Just outside the corner door where Chen Jiao had just entered, in the narrow alley, three guys with big shoulders and round waists, or monkey heads and roe deer noodles were tied up like rice dumplings with ropes, and their mouths were stuffed with rags, and they were humming like pigs, looking at them in horror.

Beside them were five samurai dressed in nocturnal black, looking particularly shrewd and capable.

At the mouth of the alley, there are two people, an old man and a young man, watching.

"Hmph, I still want to hit Madame's idea! What a bear heart and leopard gall!"

At this time, Lao Cheng is far from being the honest shop owner at the beginning! People are changeable, and after several bloody battles, he has grown up early to become a qualified leader of an intelligence base.

Full of murderous intentions, Lao Cheng turned his head gloomily, pointed to the three zongzi and said: "After a while, these three will be tied with stones and thrown into the Yudai River, and the old man will personally go to the man surnamed Li to settle the account, and let him have three knives and six eyes!"

However, after looking at the quiet Hou Mansion a few times, Xiao Tang, the commissioner of Dongjiang here, looked back at the three zongzi with interest, and he was interested, and he also reached out and pinched the old face of the sharp-beaked monkey cheek, who was around forty and had a stiff waist, raised his face, looked at it a few times, and a smile appeared on his face.

"In the past few days, Lu Qianhu is just looking for someone of this age, those two uncles are at will, I will take this away!"

"Yo he! It's cheap, old boy! ”

In the early years, one of Lao Cheng's daughters was abducted by these people who walked the rivers and lakes to shoot flowers and kidnappers, and he didn't know where to sell them, he was extremely hateful for these scum in the rivers and lakes, but when he heard these words in Xiao Tang's ears, the smile on his face became more and more cruel.

"Uncle Cheng doesn't have to mind, he won't be cheap, maybe it's true!"

The boat galloped on the Yudai River, and when it was driving in the deepest part of the river, two wriggling sacks fluttered and fluttered twice, and were thrown into the river like garbage, and bubbles gurgled up, and then there was no news.

Half an hour later, the tall and skinny trafficker who had witnessed all this was pushed out of the car again, but the first time he looked up at the past made him freeze there as if he had been struck by lightning.

North Town Fuji!

Whimpering in his mouth, the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks even desperately wanted to take the initiative to jump over to the small ditch behind him, but when he arrived here, he was still allowed to resist there, and in Xiao Tang's cold snort, even a man in black put his shoulder on his shoulders and pulled it in along the side door.

…………

A few days later.

In the village outside the city, a simple and unpretentious courtyard.

Several clotheslines were hung with washed bedding and clothes, and in the room, a female dependant and a maid were still scrubbing hard.

Who would have thought that this is the home of the former governor of Shaanxi.

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was eroded, corruption was rampant, and the military salary was not out of the warehouse, so it had to be drifted into three parts.

But it was already miserable, but fate still seemed to refuse to let go of this family, outside the door, a burst of noise came suddenly, and then, the broken door was kicked open, and several brocade guards broke in like wolves and tigers.

"But Sun Chuanting's family!"

"It's the concubine! I don't know what the officials do? ”

It is worthy of putting down the clothes that she has washed to make a living behind the door, and wiping her hands on the apron, Mrs. Sun asked calmly.

"What are you doing? Sun Chuanting was rebellious, greedy for military salaries, arrogant and arrogant, and confronted His Majesty, and now on the orders of Scholar Yang, Sun Chuanting's family was exiled outside the Saiwai! Take it all!"

The sergeants barbarized into the house, and a man and a woman were dragged out by the shoulders amid the screams of the readings, and Mrs. Sun was also pushed and pulled outward, and the clothes in the basin were knocked over to the ground.

"Shining!"

At the door, he hugged the panicked little boy in his arms, and looked back suddenly, Mrs. Sun snorted coldly.

"Yang Sichang! National thieves too!"

On the other side, Jingshi, the edict prison.

"It all depends on the two brothers to avenge this great revenge!"

The shiny silver shimmered in the candlelight with the unique color of precious metals, and the eyes of the two cell leaders who were looking at it were also glowing, and they swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and the slightly fatter cell head on the left nodded with difficulty.

"The people who are imprisoned here are all important ministers of the court, our lord is moody, if you go in today, you may come out tomorrow, brothers! Our brothers are also taking a big risk!"

"Understood, understood!"

Nodding his head again and again, another heavy amount of silver shook out of Xiao Tang's sleeve and fell heavily on the table.

"That grandson and I have a grudge against my father! As long as I can teach him a hard lesson, even if it is bankrupt, I will not hesitate to do it!"

As he spoke, a hideous color also bloomed on Xiao Tang's face under the black cloak, and for a moment, it was like a ghost, and the two cell heads trembled heavily.

The amount of silver is enough, plus the face of Li Stalltou in Dongchang, even if it is a dignified emperor's edict, he still opened the door, gritted his teeth, and the cell head on the left slammed open the door leading to the below.

"Brothers, be light! Don't make too much of a fuss!"

"Got it, brother, go with Lao Tzu!"

In Xiao Tang's dull hum, the four thugs who were also wearing black cloaks snorted and followed them into prison.

In this crowd, one person seems to be extremely stiff in his actions, and when he looks closely, he looks like a puppet, but at this time, his heart is all covered by the greed and nervousness of silver, and the two cell bosses still have the heart to look more.

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless! In the gloomy prison, Sun Chuanting's hair was more than half white, his hair was scattered, and his face was withered and sat on the broken stall, indignant but silent.

At this moment, a flash of fire flashed in his pupils, and then the locked cell door was opened with a thud.

Looking at the few black-clothed people who appeared in front of him, with unkind faces, and their old-fashioned and aged faces showed a sense of contempt, Sun Chuanting asked with a sneer.

"The old man has done it here, but he Yang Wenweak still refuses to let go of the old man?"

"Very good, let's do it! But help the old man tell him that Yang Wenwan said, and Yu Youqing looked at him again! The old man is also waiting underground......"

Bang~

In the TV series, you must wait for the righteous gentleman to finish reading the lines, but this is not a TV series, before Sun Chuanting finished loading it, Xiao Tang had already slammed an electric cannon out, and Master Sun, who was usually beaten at once, staggered backwards.

Immediately afterwards, a person behind him shot like a knife, slashing at the back of Sun Chuanting's neck like lightning, without snorting, the dignified governor of Shaanxi, the executioner of the exile army, and the general of the court lay on the ground softly.

Candlelight and axe shadows, light and shadow are staggered, in the prison opposite, Hou Xun, the former head of the household department who was locked, watched in disbelief as several people punched and kicked Sun Chuanting.

"Huh?"

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Tang's wolf-like eyes made Hou Xun tremble suddenly, he was not as graceful as Sun Chuanting, and he trembled and crawled back.

…………

Time for two sticks of incense!

"Thank you two brothers, great kindness, toothless and unforgettable!"

In the cell head signing room again, with four black-clothed people, Xiao Tang bowed down violently, and the two cells hurriedly followed and waved their hands.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

"That, I didn't beat Sun Chuanting too much!"

"A few people rest assured, they just taught him a lesson, and they just breathed their anger for his deceased father, and his skin was injured!"

"That's it!"

After being polite again, with the manpower, Xiao Tang once again slipped out of the heavily guarded imperial city prison like a ghost, and disappeared.

Even if Xiao Tang kept assuring him, the two cell leaders were still not at ease, sent a few people away, and personally issued an edict to watch it.

In the secluded prison, Sun Chuanting still looked half-dead, sitting cross-legged in the center of the cell, his gray hair covering most of his face, and only the corners of his mouth showed a large bruise.

Seeing that he was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the two cell bosses immediately withdrew from the cell.

But this calm lasted for two days, and the great edict was once again noisy.

"Overseer!"

The legs of the two prisoners were weak, and the souls of the dead were trembling and prostrate on the ground.

After Cao Huachun told the old man to return to his hometown, the successor of the eunuch of Chongzhen Qiandi, Wang Dehua, the dark torch flickered on his flabby and fat old face, the yang side was like a smiling Maitreya, and the yin side was like a fierce ghost, ignoring the kowtow of the prison and begging for mercy, his eyes were staring at the center of the prison.

The person is not dead, he is still alive, but compared to a day ago, he is angry, his face is hideous and terrifying, the whole face is festering more than half, it is already unrecognizable, the whole person is also paralyzed, and the feces and urine are mixed together to emit an amazing smell.

After a few seconds of probing, Wang Dehua's sharp and somewhat old lady-like, but extraordinarily eerie voice sounded in the ears of the two cell heads.

"Sun Chuanting was afraid of crime, and he was in a hurry, and he festered and died! Died violently, but as the Lord said? ”

"The Overseer is wise, that's right!"

This is a terrible juncture, who dares to be stupid? The two prisons immediately smashed their heads like chickens pecking rice.

He no longer paid attention to the two fools, and he didn't even have the heart to look at the half-dead Sun Chuanting anymore, and the admiral eunuch Wang Dehua didn't say a word, turned around and left, and came out of the gloomy edict with a sinking face like water.

Seeing the sunshine again, it can be regarded as a little more lively, looking back at the imperial city edict prison that was half built underground, Wang Dehua couldn't help but sigh, and rubbed his old face heavily, this guy seemed to change his face, and when he rubbed his hands, he actually kneaded a Yama face into a smile.

"Enter the palace!"

…………

This eunuch was also particular about meeting the emperor, and entered the palace in the morning, but this Wang Dehua was stunned and stayed in the Internal Affairs Office for most of the day, until Emperor Chongzhen finished handling government affairs in the evening and went to Tian Guifei to listen to the music and relax, so he carefully made do.

"Old slave Wang Dehua greets Your Majesty!"

Emperor Chongzhen, who was listening to the piano under the Songfeng Pavilion with his eyes closed, obviously showed an impatient look on his face, but he didn't open his eyes, still leaning on the pillar, and Wang Dehua, who was too familiar with the emperor, took care of himself.

"The old slave is guilty, and Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, is afraid of the crime, so he is in a hurry and dies violently in the edict!"

was still as silent as death, and it was enough to finish playing a piece of Concubine Tian, and Emperor Chongzhen opened his eyes tiredly, but he still cherished the words like gold, and indifferently put down three words.

"Got it!"

Breaking high and welcoming Xiang, Li Zicheng fled into Shangluo Mountain with eighteen horses, and the death of such a great general was a simple three words in Emperor Chongzhen.

It's so cool!

However, these three words were like removing a big stone from Wang Dehua's heart, and he didn't say more, he kowtowed heavily, and then crawled backwards.

Taking advantage of the lock, he went out of the Forbidden City, and the commander of the East Factory was really completely relieved, but things had just begun, the smiling face of Maitreya Buddha did not need to be rubbed, and it was transformed into a powerful ghost Shura, in the sedan chair, Wang Dehua lowered his voice, and hurriedly and murderously commanded the personal little eunuch who was walking outside the sedan chair.

"Immediately let Jinyiwei command Luo Yangxing, Luo Jian, the head of the East Factory, and Shi Fei, who is in charge of thousands of households, come to the East Factory to see me immediately!"

The big change of living people actually played on the head of Dongchang! This great eunuch was furious like never before!
