Chapter 269: Killing Spree

"puff……"

Zhao Hong squirted a sip of tea onto the map of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains that had not yet dried on the imperial desk, and coughed violently.

"Your Majesty, be careful of the dragon body..."

Seeing this, the Xiao Huangmen who were waiting around him all stepped forward to help him.

Zhao Hong waved his hand to ward them off. He patted the imperial case and stood up. He panted and asked, "Is the Lu Ting official wearing a python robe and entering the capital with a guard of honor?"

Dongchangchang Liu Xian, who was standing in the center of the Imperial Study Room, bowed down and responded in a submissive voice: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely true. Counting on the journey, before the city gates are locked today, Lu Tinggong will lead everyone into the capital... "

‘It’s over, it’s over…’

Zhao Hong's heart was beating wildly in panic: 'Isn't that guy coming to Beijing to beat me? ’

He was restless and lingering behind the imperial case. The more he thought about it, the more likely he felt that this was a great possibility. Otherwise, what would that guy do in a python robe?

It must be that he was pulled off the dragon chair and beaten violently in order to fulfill his responsibilities as a grand master and exercise his power as a minister.

To be fearless is to be ignorant.

And he now knows so much that even though he has become the emperor, his fear of Yang Erlang has only increased... That guy is simply a living father!

'No, no, I have to find a way...'

As soon as he thought about this, he suddenly remembered the late emperor's method to deal with Yang Erlang's entry into the capital. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw: "Come here, please pass on my instructions. Guards in embroidered clothes are here." Commander Shen Fa..."

Before he could finish his words, a little Huangmen who came into the palace at some unknown time from the door of the royal study "understood" and bowed his hands in response: "Your Majesty, Mr. Shen, the commander of the Xiuyi Guards, and Nangong, the eunuch of the West Police Factory, Fei Ying is waiting for the summons in the side hall!"

Zhao Hong was speechless. After pondering for a moment, he immediately changed his words and said, "Invite them both to see you immediately!"

"yes!"

Xiao Huangmen bowed and exited the imperial study, and soon led Shen Fa and Nangong Feiying into the imperial study in a hurry.

"I, Chen Fa, see your majesty, long live my emperor!"

"Slave Nangong, the flying eagle is knocking at the official's house, long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

Zhao Hong waved his hand anxiously: "Get up, will you know about Lutingong Yang Erlang entering the capital with a guard of honor?"

Shen Fa clasped his hands and said with a hint of panic in his tone: "Your Majesty, this is exactly why I came here!"

Nangong Feiying was much more direct than him, shouting in a hissing voice: "Guan family, something bad is going on..."

"Um?"

When Zhao Hong heard his cry, the hairs on the back of his head almost stood up, and he stuttered: "What, what do you say?"

Nangong Feiying: "I have to repay you. Lu Tinggong came here because the price of food in the provinces remained high, forcing the people to be displaced. Based on my understanding of Lu Tinggong, this time he came to Beijing with the official guard of honor. It must be We need to go on a killing spree..."

Zhao Hong was stunned: "Huh?"

Nangong Feiying wiped the sweat from his forehead and said quickly, unable to hide his fear: "With Lu Tinggong's methods, every civil and military official in the dynasty counts, but anyone who is related to the increase in food prices in various provinces can only I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the execution ground, and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty will not sit still and wait for death... I'm afraid there will be a big trouble! "

Everyone knows that Yang Erlang is the most powerful and invincible man in the sky!

But just how invincible he is, only the seventy-one of them who followed him to Japan in the past know best!

Nangong Feiying panicked when he thought of the methods Yang Erlang used in Japan...

Even Shen Fa beside him was so panicked that he couldn't help but grab his sleeves to wipe his sweat. He undoubtedly knew Yang Ge, so he knew that the guy listened to the truth most of the time, but when the guy didn't want to anymore When he listens to any reason, then no reason can control him...

"That's it?"

Zhao Hong's reaction was beyond their expectations. He breathed a long sigh of relief and sat back on the chair with great relief. He comfortably picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip. In a tone of voice, he waved his hands grandly and said: "You should have said this earlier. I was so surprised that I was shocked!"

As long as that guy doesn't come to Beijing to beat me up, then everything will be easy to discuss!

Shen Fa:? ? ?

Nangong Feiying:? ? ?

Is there something wrong with us, or is there something wrong with you?

Shen Fa took a step forward and said urgently: "Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial. Your Majesty must not take it lightly. Duke Lu Ting is about to enter the capital. If we don't stop him, he will really dare to slaughter all the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, must not have the thought of killing someone with a borrowed sword. We, the Wei Dynasty, have the laws of the Wei Dynasty, and the court has its rules. If your majesty cannot even protect his ministers, he will leave it to Lu Tinggong indiscriminately. If you continue to kill indiscriminately, everyone in the court will be in danger. From now on, who will be willing to serve your majesty?

His head was covered with veins, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, almost in a voice that was almost irritating.

However, Zhao Hong just nodded lightly and said, "Shen Qing is right. How about leaving the important task of preventing Lu Tinggong from committing a massacre to Shen Qing?"

Ga?

Shen Fa was stunned all of a sudden. When his overwhelming emotions were about to explode, he suddenly choked up. It was very uncomfortable when he couldn't get up or down.

Zhao Hong then looked at Nangong Feiying.

Nangong Feiying clasped his hands honestly and said: "I am incompetent and cannot persuade Mr. Lu Ting..."

Zhao Hong picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Then he put the tea bowl aside and said unhurriedly: "I understand what Shen Qing said, but there are a few issues that I must correct Shen Qing." !”

"1. It's not that I can't protect my ministers, but those traitorous and rebellious ministers who are greedy and corrupt and harm the country and the people. Why should I protect them?"

"2. Continuing from the previous point, the people Lu Tinggong killed were all treacherous, rebellious and corrupt officials. How can we say that they are indiscriminate?"

"Third, we, the Wei Dynasty, do have our laws, and the court does have its rules. But if the laws and rules can't win over those treacherous, rebellious, and corrupt ministers, why do we need Duke Lao Luting to take action? "

"Fourth, you are insensitive and ignore the suffering of the people in the world. Do you still think that Mr. Lu Ting is also indifferent and ignores the suffering of the people in the world? Who do you think you are? What kind of mentality do you have?"

He slapped the imperial case and yelled angrily.

Shen Fa and Nangong Feiying hurriedly bowed to each other: "I am terrified..."

They both understood that this person really regarded Yang Erlang as one of his own.

These two guys are really interesting...

I only guard against Yang Erlang.

The son only used it without guarding against Yang Erlang.

But that’s okay…

As long as the emperor has an idea, even if it is wrong, it is better than being coerced by Yang Erlang's will!

"Your Majesty is far-sighted and wise and decisive. Even if I break through thousands of books, I may not be able to match your Majesty's chances."

Shen Fa bowed his hands and said a compliment first, and then continued: "But I still insist on my opinion. Duke Lu Ting must restrict it and never give him a chance to use the topic. Even if there are still problems, they must be left for the future, Your Majesty." Pick it up yourself...people's hearts can only be encouraged, but not vented, Your Majesty!"

The consequences of court battles that cross the line are too heavy and painful.

The late emperor is the best example!

Zhao Hong finally understood what he meant. After pondering for a moment, he asked tentatively: "What Shen Qing said is very close to my heart. Then... grant Duke Lu Ting an imperial envoy and give Shang Fang a sword?"

Shen Fa and Nangong Feiying: "Your Majesty, you must not do this..."

Zhao Hong: "Huh?"

The two looked at each other, and Nangong Feiying took a step forward and whispered carefully: "Your Majesty, you can't take the blame for this!"

He was too embarrassed to tell the emperor directly: You can't bear this blame!

Zhao Hong understood in an instant and immediately changed his words: "Then let Mr. Lu Ting enter the court..."

Shen Fa and Nangong Feiying: "Your Majesty, you must not do this..."

Zhao Hong: "Huh??"

Shen Fa took a step forward, lowered his eyebrows and said softly: "Your Majesty, you think it's too slow for Lu Tinggong to be escorted to the execution ground one by one to behead him, and you want to give him a chance to kill him with one blow?"

Zhao Hong suddenly understood and changed his words again: "Then I order the Ministry of Household Affairs to go out of the city on my behalf to meet Mr. Lu Ting?"

Nangong Feiying said with a smile on his face: "Your majesty is wise and saw the problem at a glance... I'm afraid those corrupt officials dare not go out of the city to face Mr. Lu Ting!"

Shen Fa went on to say: "If I am not mistaken, the reports of the illness reported by the nobles in the court have been sent to the cabinet..."

The implication of the two people's words is: Who is not confused?

Zhao Hong was annoyed and said angrily: "This won't work, that won't work either, then you guys should give me an idea!"

The two looked at each other again hesitantly...

Nangong Feiying racked his brains and thought for a moment, then said in a low voice: "According to your humble opinion, your majesty needs to send an eunuch to greet you on your behalf as a sign of your holy family."

Shen Fa: "I think we can add Lu Tinggong as the supervisory censor, who will be responsible for investigating the case of soaring grain prices in various provinces..."

Zhao Hong nodded and listened carefully, then raised his eyebrows: "That's it? No more?"

Nangong Feiying: "That's enough for Mr. Lu Ting!"

Shen Fa also nodded: "Too much is not enough!"

The three of them looked at each other with a sense of panic that dark clouds were about to overwhelm the city.

They can only do their best to control the development of the situation.

But Yang Erlang is willing to accept their restrictions...

No one has any idea!

…

"drive!"

The sunset is like blood.

Yang Ge was dressed in a purple four-clawed python robe, with a cold moon sword hanging from his waist. He was sitting astride Erhei's back. He took the lead and led hundreds of horses to crush the setting sun. He galloped towards Luoyang City with his flags fluttering and the sound of rolling horse hooves. Men thunder.

Nangong Feiying, who had been waiting outside the city gate for a long time, saw the flag and shouted loudly from a distance: "My slave, Nangong Feiying, welcome Lu Tinggong back to the capital on your behalf..."

A group of eunuchs shouted in unison in a loud voice: "Welcome Mr. Lu Ting back to the capital!"

In an instant, gongs and drums were roaring and firecrackers were blasting!

"Hush!"

Yang Ge Lema, the majestic two black men stood up, their huge bodies seemed to be enveloped by a dark cloud over Nangong Feiying.

The hundreds of riders behind him also rode up, raising a puff of smoke and dust...

"Come and be safe, Nangong!"

Yang Ge comforted Erhei and waved to Nangong Feiying beside the road with a smile.

Nangong Feiying came up with a basin of steaming water and responded with a smile on his face: "Thanks to your great blessing, everything is going well recently... You are tired from the journey, so please wash your face first."

"Hey, hey, what are you doing, Erhei? You don't even recognize the Za family? When we were in Japan, the Za family even fed you eggs!"

But he came too close, and Erhei looked at him and wanted to grit his teeth. A mouthful of fangs frightened him so much that he backed away.

"Okay, don't pretend to be confused because you understand!"

Yang Ge brushed Er Hei's horse's head away and said with a smile: "What did I do in the capital? You are just like Ming Jing'er. Brothers and sisters, please don't come and talk around with me... I ask you, Meng Ziqian, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue , Where is the person!”

Nangong Feiying said "fuck" in his heart when he heard this. Before he even got off his horse, he was thinking about killing someone...

"Second Master, if you want to do something, we won't stop you!"

He stubbornly came forward with a basin in hand: "It's just that you have just arrived in the capital, and you are so tired from traveling that you haven't even breathed yet. If we just let you do things like this, and when you meet other brothers later, we will still Do you have the nerve to say hello to them? "

Yang Ge stared at him, slowly narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared: "I treat you as a friend, I will say it for the second time... Meng Ziqian, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, where is he!"

As soon as he narrowed his eyes, Nangong Feiying began to panic. He immediately threw the copper basin in his hand and said loudly: "Back to the second master, Meng Ziqian, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, went to Zhezi to report illness in the afternoon. He said he was at home, but We know that he is hiding in a private house in Qingyuli... Are you angry with those holes in your face? Why don't you get a horse from the Za family quickly?"

A group of people from Xichang hurriedly led the horse forward and handed the reins to Nangong Feiying.

Nangong Feiying got on his horse, flicked the reins and said, "Second Master, let us take you to... drive."

Yang Ge gently pinched the horse's belly, and Erhei easily followed Nangong Feiying, and the two horses kept pace: "Does your West Factory have conclusive evidence of Meng Ziqian's crime? I'm talking about the one who is not unjustly accused or framed. kind!"

"Don't worry, that guy will definitely die!"

Nangong Feiying: "The evidence in our hands is already enough for him to confiscate his house and exterminate his family. However, this person has been in the government for many years and holds a high position. He is also the leader of the Qi Party, has cronies in both the government and the public, and has disciples all over the world. Mr. Shen and I are using this as a weapon of caution. Don’t dare to touch him…”

"It's because you don't dare to do anything."

Yang Ge rushed into Luoyang City on horseback: "That's why they dare, that's why they are so unscrupulous!"

It was getting late at this time, and there was already a curfew in Luoyang City. There were only a few soldiers patrolling the empty long street. Yang Ge rushed into it on horseback, and the thunderous sound of horse hooves broke the tranquility and peace of the evening.

When the people along the street heard the sound of rolling horse hooves, they quietly opened their doors and windows and looked outside. They saw his ceremonial guard with the word "Yang" and wondered in their hearts: "We have a Duke named Yang in our Wei Dynasty?"

"No, you've never heard of it?"

"Why not? Have you forgotten about Luting?"

"Yang Erlang? Mr. Yang!"

"Mr. Yang has entered the capital? And under the banner of the Duke?"

"Something big is going to happen!"

Under the leadership of Nangong Feiying, Bai Shiqi ran through the long streets and turned into an alley as if they were in a deserted land.

Nangong Feiying reined in his horse and pointed to a short old house with an unattractive appearance: "Second Master, Mengzi moved here!"

Yang Ge glanced at it and waved his hand expressionlessly.

The embroidered guards behind him immediately got off their horses, pulled out their oxtail knives, kicked open the courtyard door, and rushed in like wolves and tigers.

Fang Ke has always done things properly. The hundred households transferred to him this time are all the old people from Shangyou Station who followed him to Jiangsu and Zhejiang...

After a chaotic commotion, a group of embroidered guards escorted a middle-aged man with tender skin and tender flesh, a dignified appearance but wearing nondescript Gebu clothes, and knelt down in front of Erhei's horse. .

Yang Ge glanced at him, turned around and asked Nangong Feiying beside him: "Is he Meng Ziqian?"

Before Nangong Feiying could respond, the middle-aged man in front of the horse's head begged for mercy with a heart-breaking cry: "Mr. Yang, please forgive me. I am willing to perform meritorious service and persuade various families and tribes to adjust grains and stabilize grain prices..."

Look, he understands everything...

Yang Ge couldn't help but sigh: "You said that among you, who are not well-dressed, well-educated, and extremely smart scholars, how can you act like those stupid and bad desperadoes who have no tomorrow after today? "

Meng Ziqian: "I know my mistake..."

"Pfft."

A bright sword flashed away, Yang Ge sheathed the sword, and a big head flew up, and the blood spurting out was eerily red under the setting sun!

Looking at this scene, Nangong Feiying was stunned immediately, and the cold air in his heart froze him in place.

execution ground?

What kind of punishment is this?

Yang Ge expressionlessly stretched out his hand, accurately caught the fallen dead head, held it up in front of him, looked directly into the eyes that were as wide as copper bells on his face, and said softly: "Don't you know you are wrong? I know I’m going to die!”

He tied the head to the saddle and turned to look at Nangong Feiying again: "Jin Zhihua, Minister of Household Affairs, where is he?"

Nangong Feiying suddenly shuddered, came to his senses, hugged the hand holding his knife, and said plaintively: "Second Master, we can't be so reckless..."

"Jin Zhihua, Minister of Household Affairs, where is he?"
