Chapter 145 Retribution
Chapter 145 Retribution
Outside the Wude Gate, Xiao Ruojiang beat the Dengwen drum loudly.
Xiao Ruohai was injured, and sat kneeling aside, his eyes fixed on Gao Sheng. Capturing Gao Sheng alive... Six masters of the Duke's Mansion were killed, and his left arm was almost crippled, which shows how capable he is!
Gao Sheng, who was captured alive, Liu Huanzhang, who was already dead, and Tian Weijun, the three of them were crushed by the guards of the Duke's Palace and knelt in front of Wude's gate.
Tian Weijun gritted his teeth and looked at Gao Sheng with red eyes: "Gao Sheng, Mr. Gao! You want to kill me?!"
Gao Sheng said with a blank expression: "Since you have been captured, you will be left in vain, why don't you just stop here, and save you from going to prison and suffering!"
Tian Weijun's eyes widened, and his eyes were about to burst. These words...was what King Liang once said to him!
On that thunderstorm night, King Liang ordered him to shoot an arrow through his brother who had lived and died with him. Seeing that he was hesitant, King Liang said to him like this... Since he has been captured, he has changed, so it is better to end it like this. And save him from suffering in prison.
Tian Weijun opened his mouth to argue, but swallowed the words back abruptly.
This is the consistent style of King Liang. In the past, King Liang could let him shoot and kill his brother, why can't he let Gao Sheng, who is his brother, kill him today? !
It really is the reincarnation of heaven, and the retribution is not good!
In his hand, Bai Jintong held the letter written by King Liang that the guards of the Bai family had found from Tian Weijun. In order to prevent the emperor from hiding it for his son, he recited it in front of all the people...
"Things have changed, and I order you to use the life of Liu Huanzhang's family as a bargaining chip to coerce Liu to surrender to Dali Temple, and to admit to Dali Temple Minister that Tong Ji's letter in his arms will be replaced by him. Liu's purpose of exchanging letters is to prove that Bai Weiting is collaborating with the enemy and treason! Be sure to let Liu take a bite." Decided to risk his life and go back to Dadu to sue the king of the town, just to seek justice for himself! If he does not comply, or intends to threaten him with a full disclosure of his cooperation with us, this king wants the whole Liu family to reunite with him in Huangquan. If Liu asks about the marching records Let him not worry about the things that have been exposed, this king has a plan!"
After listening to Bai Jintong's recitation, the common people were horrified...
who is this? ! Claiming to be the king... Could it really be the king of Liang? !
Bai Jintong was very annoyed after reading it, and Bai Jinzhi kicked Gao Sheng on the injured shoulder, kicking Gao Sheng to the ground, with tears in his angry eyes: "Say! What are you doing with Liu Huanzhang?! With Nanyan County King Is the collaborator the King of Liang?! Is it because of you collaborating with the enemy and treason...that’s why my son of the Bai family died!"
When the people heard Bai Jinzhi's words, they were already filled with righteous indignation, and they shouted that they would divide the three men into five horses. They thought of the boys of the Bai family who had stayed in southern Xinjiang and never returned, and thought of the seventeenth son of the Bai family who was only ten years old. It was red, wishing he could raise the knife immediately and kill Liu Huanzhang again.
Gao Sheng was a tough guy who gritted his teeth and wanted to stand up, but was pressed down on one knee, and just stared straight ahead with no expression.
In front of Wudemen, his master, the second prince, and his elder brother all died there.
Soon a guard from the Bai family came in a hurry, covered his lips and whispered in Xiao Ruohai's ear: "Jing Zhaoyin knew that Liu Huanzhang was found in Dadu City, and has already set off to the palace to plead guilty to His Majesty. The old man in Lu Jin's house, Minister of Dali Temple, said , Lu Jin heard that the King of Liang was going to frame the Duke’s mansion for collusion and treason... When the Eldest Princess brought the letter into the palace, she had already set off, and I am afraid that she is almost at the imperial court now."
Gao Sheng's ears twitched, and he turned his head to look at Xiao Ruohai. Only then did he understand... Liang Wang and the others were probably tricked by the Bai family.
Gao Sheng's straight body bent slightly.

Soon the gatekeepers of Wudemen were brought into the hall to report back to the emperor.
As soon as the emperor saw the general guarding the gate, he couldn't help feeling angry, and asked sharply, "Who is beating the Dengwen drum?!"
"Return to Your Majesty, you are a loyal servant of the Bai family."
Hearing the answer, the emperor looked at Bai Qingyan with Yin Zhi's eyes: "What's wrong with you, didn't I try this case here?!"
Bai Qingyan raised her head, pretending to be shocked: "Your Majesty, my servant...is it at Wudemen?"
emperor:"……"
Seeing the emperor's increasingly gloomy expression, the eldest princess raised her hand subconsciously and pulled Bai Qingyan behind her to protect her.
"Don't tell me what's going on!" The emperor cast his anger on the gatekeeper general.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the loyal servants of the Bai family fought to the death and captured Liu Huanzhang and the two guards of Prince Liang's mansion. Regardless of their injuries, they came to beat the Dengwen drum, claiming that they would avenge the Bai family, sue the king of Liang for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and wanted to frame Zhonglie! "
Bai Qingyan was determined, and the hands folded in front of her lower abdomen slowly loosened her strength, and she stared sharply at King Liang.
"Liu Huanzhang?!" The emperor tightened his hand holding the jade wrench.
King Liang trembled all over, and immediately cried out: "You are wronged, Father! Father, you have to be the master for your son! Even if you have the courage, you will not dare to do such a thing!"
King Liang cried out his grievances, and quickly figured out how to deal with it.
"Royal father! No ministers!" Liang Wang was trembling all over, with snot and tears, playing a cowardly, incompetent, greedy and fearful villain to the fullest.
"Bring everyone here! I will interrogate myself!" the emperor gritted his teeth.
"Yes!" The general guarding the gate glanced at the crying King Liang, raised his head and said again, "There is one more thing, Liu Huanzhang is dead. It was the guards of the Liang Palace who killed him to silence him. After the other guard of the Liang Palace was captured, he also died. He was almost silenced by that guard named Gao Sheng."
"Bring me up here!" The emperor swung the teacup on the table to the ground.
"Yes!" The general guarding the gate hastily withdrew.
Liang Wang cried even more aggrieved and panicked: "Father, there are really no sons! Father, you have to trust the sons!"
The little eunuch came quickly with broken steps, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Dali Temple Minister Lu Jin begs to see Your Majesty."
"Let Lu Jin come in!" The emperor had a headache from Liang Wang's crying.
·
Soon, Xiao Ruohai was brought up along with Gao Sheng and Tian Weijun.
Liu Huanzhang, who was already dead, was inauspicious to be brought into the palace, so he stayed outside the palace. The people sent by the emperor to check came back with Xiao Ruohai, Gao Sheng, and Tian Weijun, and knelt down to report: "Report to Your Majesty, my humble minister let people Mention Liu Huanzhang's wife and daughter to go to identify people, there is no doubt that Liu Huanzhang died."
"Gao Sheng! Why did you harm His Highness?! If His Highness hadn't taken you in, you would have died! Your Highness has been so kind to you...why did you make His Highness unrighteous?!" When Tong Ji saw Gao Sheng, he wanted to bite that cold-faced iron heart man mouthful.
Gao Sheng pursed his thin lips, knelt in the hall without saying a word, let the blood soak his black clothes, and the unstoppable blood dripped down on the shiny floor.
The emperor looked at Gao Sheng, squinting his eyes, as if he had seen this person somewhere.
"Father! My son really didn't do such a thing that is inferior to a beast! My son is timid since I was young...You know it, father!" Liang Wang continued to cry.
