Chapter 160: Let's Try Him for Treason First
After a few words of laughter with the Third Master, he was sent away with a sentence of "official business is more important". However, Zhao Jue did not do nothing, but the gift was sent out.
When he returned to the duty room, he estimated that the two would be back soon, so he simply took out the list in his arms and handed it to everyone for circulation.
He warned, "Look carefully, don't catch the wrong person. There are some gangsters among these people, and they probably know some martial arts. I will follow them when the time comes."
"As for the officials and merchants' homes, don't let a hair go. Seal them first, and wait for me to inform Lord Lu before taking any action!"
"Also, you can do something, but don't go too far! The emperor is watching this matter! Be clear-headed, and close the door first if you want to do something, so that the people can see it and it will be difficult to explain..."
While he was nagging, two voices came from behind, "Lord, the troops are ready!"
Zhao turned around and saw Yu Jielin and Lao Jiang. He nodded slightly and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone follow the deployment and go to arrest people!"
Soon, soldiers and horses were driving Mercedes-Benz on the streets of the capital, attracting people on the side of the road to look sideways and talk about it.
"What's wrong? How serious a crime must have been committed?"
"Don't talk nonsense, this is the Jinyiwei, be careful that they will arrest you too!"
"Let's just watch..."
......
In front of the manor outside the city, Zhao Jue sat on his horse, quietly looking at the manor gate.
This is one of the two Jianghu people, called Liu Qihe. I have to say that Zheng Rongqing is still sensible. Such a large manor is very suitable for Tibetans to train soldiers.
Captain Jiang walked to the front of the horse, "Sir, the manor has been surrounded. Several people who wanted to escape have been caught."
"Well, go up and knock on the door. There is no need to waste time. Jie Lin is probably still waiting."
"Okay." Captain Jiang responded and turned to knock on the door. After knocking for a while, no one came out. He looked back at Zhao Jue, a little embarrassed.
Zhao Jue couldn't wait for this, it would be a waste of his time. After waving his hand to let him go, he circulated his true energy, stepped on the stirrup, and flew into the air.
All his energy gathered in his hands, and he angrily slapped the tightly closed door, "Open the monument!"
As his palm fell, the thick wooden door kept shaking and cracking. Zhao Jue circulated his energy, grabbed the ground with his feet, and opened his posture to make another palm.
With a "bang", the door broke into pieces, wood chips flew around, and a thick cloud of dust rolled up. Zhao Jue waved his cloak to disperse the dust, and shouted to the people behind him, "Go in and arrest people, don't let anyone go, and those who dare to resist will be killed!"
The Jinyiwei and the armored imperial guards entered in a line. When they saw someone, they first drew their swords out of their sheaths, and then shouted, "Raise your hands and squat down, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"
"Why do you Jinyiwei come to my house to arrest people?"
"Squat down!"
"Jinyiwei is so lawless!"
"Squat down! If you want to explain, go back to Zhaoyu!"
"The damn bullies are too much, fight them!"
I don't know who shouted, followed by the sound of swords and knives. Mixed with curses, shouts, and the sound of sharp weapons cutting flesh, it sounded extremely chaotic and noisy.
Zhao Jue covered his cloak, leaned against the door frame and closed his eyes to rest, ignoring the sounds inside and completely treating himself as an outsider.
"Dog officer, I'll kill you first!"
A middle-aged man chopped at him with a knife, but Zhao Jue didn't even look at him. He released his true energy to suppress the attack and grabbed the man's wrist. He tapped him with his fingers on his body several times, and the man couldn't hold the knife and collapsed to the ground.
"Master!"
Someone in the distance kept roaring, but was soon interrupted by the sound of swords clashing. Zhao Jue stood for a long time and was a little impatient. Hearing the noisy roar, he became even more impatient.
He simply shouted loudly, "Catch him!"
After roaring, he ignored the situation of the battle, and the majestic true energy on his body was released, flooding everyone like a tide.
At this moment, Zhao Jue moved, and Zhui Xing Gan Yue stretched out. In the blink of an eye, many people were pointed at the acupoints on their bodies by Zhao Jue's fingers.
Those who were not pointed at just wanted to react, but Zhui Xing Gan Yue was too fast, and they could not see Zhao Jue at all. There were only countless afterimages flashing in the field.
After a few breaths, there was no one standing in the manor. They all fell to the ground limply, and their weapons were scattered all over the ground.
"Catch them all back. If Zhao Yu is not enough, put them in the capital prison." Then Zhao Jue kicked the scattered weapons on the ground and shouted loudly.
"A manor actually has so many sharp weapons privately. What is this? This is evidence of treason."
"Evidence!"
After that, he waved to Jiang Qianhu and asked him to count the number of people and calculate the casualties.
Captain Jiang went for a while, then ran back and said, "Sir, there are no deaths, but eleven people were injured, four of us and seven from the Beijing camp. Because they were wearing armor, they were only slightly injured."
"Take them down to heal their wounds first, and the people left behind should check the farm and pack the things and take them back to Zhaoyu!"
After giving the order, Zhao rushed to Yu Jielin without stopping, and happened to meet Yu Jielin who was walking towards him with his men halfway.
"Is the matter done over there, Lord Zhao?"
"It's done, Lord Yu is also very fast"
The two looked at each other and laughed, and raised their hands one after another to lead the way.
"Please, sir!"
"Let's go, let's go back to Zhaoyu together, hahahaha."
In the duty room on the second floor of Zhaoyu, Zhao finally revisited the old place after almost a month, and his previous position was still empty.
Yu Jielin, Captain Jiang, Zheng Rongqing and other captains followed behind him, and they sat down with relief when Zhao sat down, and discussed the operation jokingly.
As for the interrogation, it is enough to leave it to the centurions and trial thousand households. After being busy for so long, it is necessary to take a break first.
"This is Zheng Rongqing, some people should still remember him. We are brothers in the future. Rongqing, this is Jie Lin, this is Lao Jiang... meet everyone, we are all brothers here."
Taking this opportunity, let Zheng Rongqing get acquainted with others, saving the effort in the future.
After a warm atmosphere of mutual introduction, everyone was finally able to sit down and have a cup of tea.
"Lao Jiu, what is the purpose of arresting people this time? If you don't tell us, it will be difficult for us to interrogate. What if we go astray, it will be time-consuming and laborious." Yu Jie Lin asked curiously while drinking tea.
It takes a lot of effort to arrest so many people at once, and it is better to set the tone at the beginning. It will be much easier to interrogate in one direction.
Zhao thought about it and felt that it would be bad to say nothing. If he relied on so many people by himself, he would be exhausted. So after a little thought, he said softly, "First, let's try him for treason, and focus on his participation in the third prince's entry into the palace to force the throne."
"The emperor means that these are all small matters, and the main thing is to rectify the court atmosphere. The corruption and bribery are too serious, there are too many redundant officials and cruel officials, and the public opinion is boiling..."
Everyone looked at each other, and there was a sense of everyone being in danger. They didn't know whether others were greedy or not, but they knew whether they had made money or not.
Captain Jiang hesitated for a while and asked, "This... won't be found here? We all..."
"Shut up!" Yu Jielin shouted mercilessly. How can such words be said in such an occasion? Isn't this just disrupting one's own position!
Waving his hand to attract everyone's attention, Zhao said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, if you want to investigate, you would have investigated a long time ago. How much money did you make? The emperor cares about the world, can he look down on your little money?"
Although he knew the emperor's purpose a long time ago, Zhao still had to appease everyone. The internal situation cannot be chaotic. If people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.
"Doing things sincerely is the greatest loyalty. The emperor will not investigate loyal ministers! Put your hearts back in your stomachs and everything will go on as usual."
"Besides, there is still Lord Lu to support us! It's not our turn to be anxious!"
