Chapter 239: Punishment and Stratagem
When night fell, the city of Hanyi was still slaughtered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Countless torches fluttered in the night, and the city was full of flaming dragon lanterns inside and outside the city, and the torrent of search permeated every corner inside and outside the city, and it was as if the city was lit up by countless fire points when viewed from above, but such an intensive search failed to find anything useful.
Although the heavy rain has stopped, it has washed the city clean, and it is as new as new, it is difficult to see blood, it is difficult to see the traces of the previous battle, but the decaying walls and collapsed houses are a symbol of what happened here before.
Looking at the wet city, the sergeants clearly knew that it was impossible for them to find out something, but everyone needed an explanation, so these searches still had to be carried out.
This event, which was destined to become a heavy stain in the history of the Dawu Dynasty, they became participants and witnesses, and this was the only thing that was not washed away in this rainstorm.
"Search every yard for me!" The face of the official of the inspection department was unprecedentedly ugly, and after he raised his sword coldly and gave the order, the roaring footsteps rushed through every courtyard, and the screams of the people rose from many places in the city.
Every yard in Lancheng Lane was washed open, and every corner of the yard was brutally searched, whether inhabited or uninhabited.
"Bang-"
Seeing the three sergeants of the inspection department rushing into the courtyard, Gu Erhua rushed into the courtyard with a disgraced face.
"I don't know ...... adults"
"Search!" the sergeant ignored Gu'er's cold voice and ordered, and the other two immediately rushed into the various rooms.
"My lord, why is this?" Gu'er was very angry and anxious, but she had no choice but to frown.
"The Inspection Division handles the case. The sergeant took out a yellow token from his waist, and the word Dawu stood out on it.
"But ......"
"It's okay, Gu'er. Jing Yang, who was dressed in a white plain robe, walked out of the house, bowed his head to Gu'er, and bowed slightly to the sergeant, "The adult handles the case, let the adult search it." ”
Jingyang spoke, so she didn't have to say more, Gu'er still bit her lip unwillingly, watched the sergeant rush to her room, and retreated with shame.
Soon, the two sergeants came out of the house and shook their heads at the sergeant in the courtyard.
"Excuse me. The sergeant clenched his fist at Jingyang, and quickly disappeared into the courtyard.
Walking up and closing the courtyard door, Jingyang looked at the majestic city and took a long breath. It seems that it is impossible for this city to be quiet for a day or two, and in the eyes of the nobles in this Hanyi City, they have nothing to do with the prince of Dayin.
Thinking of this, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he smelled the fresh air blowing, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed, and he didn't even feel the injuries on his body.
……
"Although the demon beast has been suppressed, all the members of the Forbidden Beast Hall have died, and it is no longer possible to find out what the problem is. ”
"Not a single one alive?"
"Not a single one is alive. ”
"What is the situation of the people?"
"One hundred and thirty-six shops and dwellings were destroyed, and four of the people of the city were affected, two of whom died, and because they fled in time, there were not many casualties. Zhang Yijin, the first of the household division, hurriedly reported today's investigation, "The relief has been issued, and it will take half an hour for the specific implementation." ”
"Is there anyone in the city going out of the city today?" asked Cai Yao, the public in the carriage, still continuously.
"After the incident, no one left the city, only General Nanzhen was nowhere to be found. ”
"Xu Meilin?"
"Prime Minister Hui, it is this person. ”
"Check. ”
"Prime Minister, the lower official has sent someone to investigate. ”
At this time, the black carriage, which was twice as large as the ordinary carriage, stopped on Humo Street, and a torch stood on both sides, illuminating the Xuantie carriage with a deep black glow. In addition to the soldiers around him, there were also soldiers not far away, rushing to the various corner towers in the city.
Peng Jiuling stood in front of this huge carriage, compared to this carriage, he seemed extremely small, so that he could be easily burned in the anger of the people in the carriage at any time, and he himself felt the pressure of the city, even if the name of the eldest princess existed on his head, but it was still difficult to change his fear of Gongyi Caiyao.
Behind Peng Jiu0's several positions, there were still several supreme leaders of the court organization, all of whom were as silent as cicadas at this time, and several of them even had several sweats rolling down their foreheads, just like when their subordinates saw them angry in the past.
"How did the two Jinmeng people enter the city?"
"My lord, those two did not have a record of entering the city, and it seems that the documents of the entry record were destroyed on that day. ”
"Toji doesn't have a copywriter?"
Zhang Yijing, the first of the household division, stepped forward and bowed: "Back to the prime minister, the paperwork disappeared on the road that day, and there is no time to file it in the future." ”
"Why didn't the copywriter report?!"
Zhang Yijin's tall and thin body trembled suddenly, and he hurriedly said: "Back to the prime minister, it is only a small part of the record of entering the city that day, and the lower officials think it is ......."
"Think?" Gongyi Caiyao sneered, laughing so hard that Zhang Yijin's heart suddenly twisted, "What a minister." ”
"Is there any information from the Intelligence Division?"
"Back to the prime minister, there is no information about the two of them entering the city, but after the incident in the morning, it has been thoroughly investigated, and the two are named Tieda Xuchen and the other is Tieda Molan, and they are two cultivators of the Jinmeng Yuan Tieda tribe, both of them are people from the Yin Demon Sect, and they are ......"
"I don't want to hear what the identities of these two people are, even a fool can see that they are from Jinmeng, you are the head of the intelligence department, and you can't even tell what information is used and what is useless?!" An angry roar rolled out of the carriage, and the curtain of the carriage was like a surging wave, and Mao Guojing's gray official robe hunted with the wind.
Mao Guojing hurriedly bowed down, and a few drops of sweat were handed to the wet ground.
"The dignified Hanyi City! I don't even know when the Jinmeng people came! The pillars above the casino are engraved with witch scripts! The dignified Hanyi City, even a prince who has not reached the Tongyuan Realm has been caught! Are you killed in the palace, and you are still watching a play in your own mansion!" The angry roar of Gongyi Caiyao made everyone hang their heads, and one by one, the former majestic head of the department and the head of the prison were like prisoners waiting for trial.
"How did the remnants of the previous dynasty know that the well was connected to the dark river?! How did the remnants of the previous dynasty manage to make the east of the city wrecked today, so that most of the strong people in the city had to leave?! How did the remnants of the previous dynasty manage to let the two golden meng obstacles enter the city silently?! Each of you is to blame! Your Majesty raised you nobles to raise some wine bags and rice bags?!"
Every minister didn't dare to pant heavily, and felt an incomparably huge pressure, as if the panting sound was louder, and his body would be shattered in this roar in the next breath.
"Your Majesty asked the Prime Minister to thoroughly investigate the case, and the Prime Minister will give His Majesty an explanation."
"Peng Jiu0, the head of the Supervision Department, where are the people in your Supervision Department about the incident?"
"Back to the prime minister, go down ......"
"Dereliction of duty! This prisoner cart was cast by your Supervision Department, and there are also people from your Supervision Department among the officials who sent them to prison, and this prisoner cart was destroyed after only a few dozen breaths, and your Supervision Department cannot escape the blame!"
"Peng Jiu0, deduct the book for half a year!
Peng Jiuling's face sank, and he took a deep breath, "The lower official obeys the order." ”
"Qiu Jinpeng, the head of the inspection department!"
Qiu Jinpeng's face was slightly cold, and he took a step forward, "The lower official is here." ”
"Knowing that the remnants of Dayin are suspected of robbing prisoners, why don't you send troops to garrison them on the way to punishment?!"
"There is a corner tower guardian on the road, and there is a ......"
"Shut up. Gong Cai Yao suddenly interrupted, Qiu Jinpeng's throat squirmed, and he swallowed all the unwillingness in his stomach.
"Who is the squire in charge of the barracks on Humo Street?"
"Back to Prime Minister, Liu Qiumei, has died. ”
"Who is the barracks squire who should arrive at the second order?"
"Zhou Biyue, Prime Minister, Zhou Shilang, he ......"
"Zhou Biyue, the squire of the inspection department, degraded the Zhennan Army, the military centurion, and the four armies in Zhennan were all in charge of the hundred flags, since he didn't understand how to drill the army, he went to Zhennan Military Academy! ”
Qiu Jinpeng was shocked and moved, and said, "Prime Minister ......"
"Wan Yuxi, the head of the Ministry of Industry!"
A slender official stepped forward and bowed: "The lower official is here." ”
"Why didn't the people report the well water the year before last?"
Wan Yuxi took a deep breath and said, "Xiaguan, you are willing to be punished." ”
"Very good, the fine will be fined for half a year, and all water conservancy problems in the city will be thoroughly investigated within half a month. ”
"The official order. ”
"Li Tao, the head of the Criminal Division!"
"The lower official is willing to be punished. ”
The prime minister in the carriage paused for a moment and said, "The same punishment as them." ”
"The official order. ”
"The first art competition of the Toji Division!"
The stern voice made the tall and thin official's face as white as snow, and he trembled forward, "The lower official is here." ”
"If you fail to report the dereliction of duty in the record of entering the city, and fail to report the dereliction of duty of the Supervision Department, you will take on most of the duties in today's major case of robbery of prisoners! ”
"Xiaguan ......"
"Wang Yuchen, the head of the secretary. ”
"Xia Guan is here. ”
"The Forbidden Beast Hall ......"
……
One punishment after another came out of the carriage, and the explanations of the senior officials were sharply interrupted, and the senior officials bowed down to respect the order, and today's events made several nobles and ministers of the court and the central government be demoted, and several related people were beheaded.
Tidamelan's body was hung naked from the streets of Humo Street, covered in heavy whip marks from his death.
In the hearts of many nobles, there is a cold current.
"It's always a matter of people taking responsibility. Yi Weijie and Peng Jiuling, the head of the Secret Military Prison, rode horses, escorted by dozens of their respective officials, and walked on a dead street, "I'm afraid that many people in the city will suffer." ”
After today's incident, the people did not dare to go out of the city again, for fear that the crisis had not passed, and that they would be contaminated with the evil spirit of the streets of the city or unnecessary suspicion if they left the city.
Peng Jiuling didn't care if other people suffered, he only cared about whether the eldest princess would have further doubts about his ability after this incident.
"That Prince Yu is really amazing, Jin Meng is willing to help him like this. Yi Weijie said coldly.
"Jin Meng is just helping himself, today's battle is a loss of face for my Dawu Dynasty, I don't know how the people will look at us, and I don't know how our neighbors will look at us. Peng Jiuling said coldly with a grim face.
"In my opinion, it is almost impossible to catch the prince of Dayin, almost everyone in the court and China has carelessness, there is no arrangement, no large-scale moves, I think that the prince will not make a move, but I didn't expect him to give everyone a slap in the face. ”
"You have no responsibility for today's affairs in the city, what do you mean by not forgetting this?" Peng Jiuling squinted at Yi Weijie.
Yi Weijie smiled coldly and said, "Why is there no responsibility? All the departments and supervisors in the city are responsible for this matter, but the size is different. ”
As soon as the words changed, Yi Weijie suddenly said in a deep voice: "Now the situation, Your Majesty and the Prime Minister want to explain, and the people of the world want to explain, we will give them an explanation." ”
Peng Jiuling squinted his eyes and waited quietly for him to continue, this impersonal prison leader took the initiative to come to him, and what he wanted to say was naturally not as superficial and meaningless as the above.
"Nine Swords Sect Jiayi has never been out of the city?"
"I haven't even been out of that yard. ”
"That's the best, it's the girl who can prove that he hasn't been out of the yard. ”
Peng Jiuling turned his head to look at him.
"Since he wants to go against you and me, then you and I will let him know what the end of going against us is, he may not be able to deceive the prime minister, but it is not impossible to deceive the people of the world, killing two birds with one stone. Even if the people above don't like it, but we are also thinking about the dynasty, and we won't have too much responsibility for the incident. Yi Weijie's face was full of cold smiles.
After Peng Jiuling lost his mind slightly, he also sneered.
"Good plan. ”
