Chapter 929: A Thousand Blades
This burst of shouting frightened more than a dozen unscrupulous guards in front of Lijing's gate. The bad handsome leader was even more furious. They have long been accustomed to doing whatever they want, so many royal relatives, princes and ministers will be caught and beaten, and their wives and daughters can rest assured that they will be humiliated. Although they had no rank or title, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all terrified when they saw them, and they were afraid to avoid them.
Who has ever seen anyone who dares to roar at them?!
At this moment, Xue Shao's head Guo An followed closely behind, and the ten iron armor subordinates behind the two were lined up, rolling forward like bulldozers.
The bad handsome and a dozen of his minions have been completely suppressed, and they only dare to retreat step by step, and even their backs have reached the city wall and the gate, and there is no way to retreat.
"I—I said it, the trespasser is dead!" The mouse is in a hurry, and it will really bite, and the bad handsome will pull out the knife when he roars angrily.
However, before his knife could be unsheathed, he was punched and kicked. The punch was on his wrist and the kick was to the knee of his left leg. There were two clicks, and he fell to the ground screaming loudly.
"Dare to draw a knife against Xue Gong, how many heads do you have?!" Guo An stepped on his back and shouted angrily.
More than a dozen bad people shrank into a ball, and none of them dared to step forward, let alone draw their swords.
"Where, which Xue Gong?" The bad handsome was trampled on and struggled to ask.
"You don't deserve to know!" Guo An raised his foot and kicked him, causing him to slide back a few steps and hit the door, "Open the door!" ”
The bad handsome knows that he has encountered a hard stubble today, or a hard stubble that he can't shake. So he hurriedly untied the key from his waist and handed it over to his subordinates to open the door.
"Lead the way to the prison!" Xue Shao raised his foot and stepped on the bad handsome, stepped into the Lijing Gate, and shouted loudly.
A group of bad people ran inside in a panic, and Xue Shao and his party followed in stride, going straight to the prison of the Magistrate's Hospital.
There are constantly bad people coming from all directions, and gradually more than 100 people have gathered. There is a way that there are many people, and they begin to muster up the courage to set up obstacles.
Xue Shao was furious, and pulled out the sword on his waist, "One last time, the one who stands in my way will die!" ”
"Whoa—"
More than 100 people scattered as birds and beasts, and fled in a hurry.
Guo An reached out and grabbed one, "Lead the way!" ”
Continue to advance until you reach the prison. The prison had long since escaped without a trace, and Xue Shao personally swung the Taiyi Imperial Knife to cut the iron rope and rushed into the prison.
In the bloodstained interrogation room covered with torture equipment, Zhang Qianqiao had fainted with whip marks and bloodstains. Fan Yunxian was tied to a crosspost, one jailer held his head down, another opened his mouth with an iron sled, and another was about to cut his tongue with a red-hot iron scissors.
"Stop!"
A thunderous roar almost frightened the prison guards into the air, and the red-hot iron scissors fell to the ground.
A green-clothed official rushed forward and pointed at Xue Shao and scolded, "Where did you come from......
Guo An strode forward and threw a punch, and the green-clothed official flew on the spot, nosebleeds and teeth flew up to the roof, and the person also crashed into the wall and fainted.
"Ahh
The prison guards were stunned and fled like crazy, and Xue Shao's troops stepped forward to catch them all, and none of them ran away.
Xue Shao entered the cell. Fan Yunxian panted and looked at him, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Thank you Xue Shuai for saving your life!" ”
"Xue is late, Brother Fan is suffering." Xue Shao sighed lightly, "How is General Zhang?" ”
"I couldn't bear the punishment and fainted." Fan Yunxian said, "You just met Hou Sizhi, wearing a green official uniform?" That's really a ruthless villain, and the torture is too ruthless! ”
"Did you recruit it?" Xue Shao asked.
"I have been loyal to the two dynasties for many years, and I have never disagreed with each other." Fan Yunxian burst into tears, "There is no way to move, where to start?" ”
"That's fine." Xue Shao breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Fan, bear with me for a while, I can't untie you now." Later, when you go to court, you speak truthfully, and you don't have to have the slightest scruples! ”
"Good!"
Xue Shao walked out of the cell, closed the cell door, and then came to the group of jailers.
"Hou Sizhi, a small seven-grade imperial history, dared to scold this official to his face, he really deserved to be killed!" Xue Shao said in a deep voice, "You are not guilty, don't panic." ”
"Yes, yes......" The jailers were stunned when they had never seen such a formation.
"Let's do our part, you don't have to kneel." Xue Shao sat on a chair.
Don't say a word, the golden knife of Malaysia, etc.!
The prison guards finally woke up Hou Sizhi and told him the truth. Hou Sizhi was frightened, and hurriedly ran to Xue Shao and knelt down, kowtowing and confessing.
Xue Shaoquan treated him as air and ignored him completely.
At this moment, Zhou Xing came in with a group of people, and saw Hou Sizhi kneeling and kowtowing to Xue Shao.
"Hou Yushi, what is this doing?" Zhou Xing stepped forward and asked unhurriedly.
Hou Sizhi was beaten out of his teeth, and muttered indifferently: "The lower official rudely bumped into Xue Gong and is pleading guilty." ”
"The imperial history is on an errand, and there is no personal enmity in accordance with the public law." Zhou Xing said, "You step aside!" ”
"Yes......" Hou Sizhi crawled to leave.
"Kneel and don't move." Xue Shao snorted.
Hou Sizhi hurriedly crawled back and knelt as it was.
Zhou Xing stepped forward, bowed his hand with a smile, and said, "Gong Xue, you are ordered to attend the trial, and the lower officials will try their best to cooperate with you." But if you rush into the forbidden land and rob the heavenly prison in front of everyone's eyes, insult the imperial history and intercept people, you have committed the royal law. I remember that Xue Gong just released a big statement above the court, saying that he would uphold the law and be just. What should we do now? ”
"Zhou Shilang, are you deceiving me that I don't understand the law?" Xue Shao stood up and said, "At the door of Lijing, I persuaded the bad handsome with good words, but he not only opened the door to make way, but also dared to draw a knife at me. Hou Sizhi is a small seven-rank foreign official who dares to scold me, Zhao Guogong, who is from the first grade. What is the sin? ”
Zhou Xing sneered and was silent.
"Don't you know? Then let me, the Xia official Shangshu who said he was in charge of the military, tell you about this Qiu official squire who is in charge of criminal law! Xue Shao said: "Article 381 of the 21st volume of the "Yonghui Shulu" lawsuit, all the foreign officials and commoners beat the nobles for two years. The crime of assaulting a beloved person is increased by one degree, and the slave and maid are added by another degree. and those who wield knives and murder weapons, hang! ”
Hou Sizhi was stunned, and hurriedly shouted, "The lower official didn't use the knife, didn't use the knife!" ”
"Kneel down and don't make noise!" Xue Shao snorted and said, "That bad handsome man is a lowly official, and it is a capital crime to draw a knife against me." I gave him a punch and a kick to warn him and did not pursue it again, and it was already an extrajudicial favor. Hou Sizhi insulted your family in public and discussed that his crime was similar to that of bad handsomeness, he knelt here and apologized to me for his guilt and the law, it is reasonable for him to be in my thoughts, and how can you speak? - Do you want me to recite the terms to you again, Zhou Shilang? ”
"No need." Zhou Xing was calm and said, "Then you robbed the heavenly prison to intercept criminals, but it is an indisputable matter in front of you." Anything else to say? ”
"Zhou Shilang, don't you have long eyes?" Xue Shao smiled, "You said I robbed the prison, what did I rob?" You say that I intercepted the prisoners, and now the prisoners are all in prison and have not even untied the ropes. This official is sitting here waiting for you to come to the court to ask about the case, why is it that you robbed the prison and robbed people? - Oh, are you trying to say that this official shouldn't be here? Coincidentally, it is the duty of this official to check on the prisoners. After the investigation, I can sit wherever I want, or do I have to be controlled by you? ”
"......" Zhou Xing was speechless for a while. I only hated in my heart: I have heard Xue Shao's clever tongue for a long time, and I have never dealt with him. I can see it today, it's really amazing!
"Zhou Shilang, don't waste time here, hurry up and open the court to try the case!" Xue Shao said, and kicked Hou Sizhi's ass, "Get out, don't let me see you again!" ”
Hou Sizhi thanked him and slipped away.
Zhou Xing took a deep breath and turned around and walked outside, throwing down a sentence, "Come to Junchen, open the court immediately to ask about the case!" ”
Lai Junchen, who was standing behind him, stared at him in a panic on the spot, as if he wanted to say-Why don't you start the trial in person?!
Xue Shao looked at Lai Junchen, a famous cool official in history. He is about thirty or forty years old, and he looks like a human, at least a hundred times better looking than Zhou Xing, a bull-headed grandmother. But what Xue Shao saw from him and in his eyes was all treacherous, treacherous, cold and vicious.
"Serve the imperial history, come to Junchen." Xue Shao walked up to him and smiled coldly, "I've heard of you." You are faithful and capable. Is that right? ”
"No, no...... The lower officials have no talent and no virtue, and they are not worthy of Xue Gong's praise! Lai Junchen bowed down in fear.
"Don't be too modest." Xue Shao cut his hands behind his back, walked past him leisurely, and said, "There are many trials, don't let me down." ”
"Yes, the subordinate officials must judge the case impartially based on the facts, and they dare not make a difference between them, dare not disappoint His Majesty's trust, and dare not ......"
"Come to Yushi, he's gone." People around you whispered a reminder.
Lai Junchen stopped his mouth, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a long breath, and then stomped his feet and roared, "What are you doing in a daze?" Hurry up and prepare for the trial!! ”
Zhou Xing walked out of the prison and went to the court quickly, but when he first arrived, he was stunned, and the whole person was stunned.
Li Duozuo, Cao Renshi, Dugu Zhizhi, Sha Zha Zhongyi, Dang Jinbi and Guo Dafeng, a group of about 30 generals of the Northern Expedition, all armed and neatly stood in front of the public court, as if they were about to send troops to the battle.
Of these generals, the youngest official is also a general of Wupinlang. Except for Wang Xiaojie and a few others, almost all the generals of the Wu Zhou Dynasty who were officials in Beijing came.
Zhou Xing was a little dumbfounded, and cold sweat was already pouring out from the corners of his forehead. He couldn't help but think of an extremely terrible thing in his heart: if His Majesty were to be asked to choose between these generals and me, Zhou, what would be the result?
At this moment, Xue Shao came.
The generals clasped their fists in unison and bowed, "Xue Gong!" ”
The momentum was like thunder, and Zhou Xing couldn't help but flick lightly all over his body.
"Zhou Shilang, these are the generals who are on the Northern Expedition with me." Xue Shao said, "I want them to hear with their own ears the details of the interrogation of Zhang Qianqiao and Fan Yunxian." If one of them is a co-conspirator, please take it and put it in jail on the spot. I assure you, no one will resist. ”
A group of generals looked at Zhou Xing neatly, and their eyes were like knives.
Zhou Xing nodded in a panic, unable to say a word. This feeling is like being slashed by a thousand knives.
The orange peel wrinkled face of the bull-headed grandmother has turned pale.
