Chapter 52: The People of Zaroukh (1)
The night was dark, but the lights were bright in the dark room under the soldiers and horses in front of the palace. Xuan Ang sat in the middle www.biquge.info Su Lan and Shao Hui sat on the left and right, there were holes in the wall, and in the connected room, Xuan Xi, Su Jun and Liu Bin also heard the movements of the outside clearly.
"Put away the torture instruments first." Su Lan smiled gently, "The people of Zalukh, who are notoriously hard-bold, the more they torture, the more they refuse to say, is that so?" ”
The three Zarukh people who were tied up looked up at Su Lan, the candle flame was dim, and their complexions were not clear, but they still looked at Su Lan stunned.
Li Yuan stepped forward and kicked the three of them over, with a look of disgust, standing aside, looking at it, as if he wanted to gouge out the eyeballs of those people.
"Ah Yuan." Su Lan snorted coldly, "Tell me, which one are they all from?" ”
"Don't say it?" Shao Hui's tone was soft, "It's from Nachabu." ”
Hearing this, the three of them raised their heads in mockery and resentment.
"That chabu, it's far away from my Shuofang, even if the grassland is relocated, it shouldn't go here." Shao Hui smiled slightly, "Don't tell me, it's a mistake." ”
"Hmph." Although the three of them are dirty in their clothes, the person who snorted in this voice, looking at the color of the clothes, is better than the other two, and seems to be a person of grade, "Shuofang City is vulnerable, your thorn history is a pustule, and you ran away before you fight, hahaha." ”
"Well, compared to me, he's a pustule." Su Lan nodded, "Now that he has also been escorted, whether he is killed or killed, I will tell you later." ”
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, I'm Su Lan." Su Lan smiled happily, "Have you heard of me?" ”
Su Lan and Zaluhe fought three times, the most impressive thing for the Zaluhe people was that she first arrived in Gaozhou, the autumn harvest in September, the royal army entered Gaozhou to plunder, Su Lan, who was supposed to defend the city, led the cavalry to chase the main force of the royal court for 300 miles and did not let go, and the madness of not fearing life and death, her name was spread in Zaluhe in an instant.
"Look at the way you look like you, you know me." Su Lan still had a playful face, exchanged glances with Xuan Ang, and continued, "Then what's going on?" ”
"Don't waste your time with that." Xuan Ang shook his head, "Don't say it, let's go to the punishment." I've heard that the Zarouch boy was born to ride a horse, well, rip off his kneecaps. ”
"Ah Yuan, call someone to do it." Su Lan nodded, "If you don't have a deep hatred, I won't let you die, and when I ask what I want to know, I'll let you go back." ”
Hearing the digging of kneecaps, the expressions of the three changed together. Escorted all the way to Beijing, they were beaten many times, and all three of them refused to speak, and they also begged to die, but because the guards were so strict, they couldn't even find a chance to die. Prairie boys, if their kneecaps are dug up, is worse than death.
"I said." The man on the side called first, but was glared at by the man in the middle and shrank back.
"Do it." Xuan Ang didn't bother to look at it, waved his hand, and motioned to dig up the person on the side first. The man's technique was excellent, but in an instant, a scream was heard, and the blood flowed like a pillar, and the man of Zarukh rolled on the ground in pain, and a bloody kneecap fell to the ground.
"To say, or not to say." Xuan Ang smiled in his tone, and his afterglow swept over Shao Hui, seeing that he was a civil official who did not change his color in the face of such a bloody scene.
"Don't say, dig again, dig, that person." Su Lan pointed to the soldier on the other side, and the previous executioner stepped forward.
"I say, I say!" The Nazaruh soldiers couldn't stand it anymore and prostrated on the ground, "Royal court, royal court attack Nachabu!" We can't help it, so we can run! ”
"Borg attacking Nacha?" Su Lan asked, "Borg only moved Nachabe?" Why do you want to move Nachabe? ”
"I ask you." Su Lan pointed at the man in the middle with her hand, "You come and answer me." ”
"Only Nachabe is moved because I, Khan, refuse to submit to the Borg!" The man laughed out loud, but his expression was a little sad, "Borg wants to unify the four parts into one, so that we can forget our surnames and become his Grugs!" I can't betray my ancestors, and I can't let it go to immortality! ”
"Borg is ambitious." In the room, Liu Bin said in a low voice, and Su Jun, who was sitting next to him, also had a serious expression and nodded slightly. The words of this tongue confirmed their previous conjecture, which was not unexpected, but it was a headache.
"Nachabu refused to change his surname, and he couldn't beat the royal court, so he ran away." Shao Hui smiled and said, "Before leaving, I went to my Shuofang to tear the flesh down." ”
"I can't ask anything else." Xuan Ang waved his hand and stood up, "I will enter the palace first and return to Your Majesty, and the aftermath of Lao Yin's recovery." ”
"Whatever the prince says, please." Su Lan bowed slightly.
After sending Xuan Ang away, Su Lan returned to the cell and ordered his subordinates to take the two soldiers away, leaving only one person.
"The lights are dim, I can't see clearly." Su Lan held the candlestick in his hand and walked to the man's side, "The Chinese language is so good, I guess you are not an ordinary little leader of Zaluhe, I'm afraid it's a nobleman of Nacha." ”
The man's face was stained, and he couldn't even see his facial features, but when he heard Su Lan's words, he sneered and didn't speak, and his eyes glowed faintly amber under the light of the candle flame.
Su Lan frowned and asked Li Yuan to come forward and search his body, but he didn't find anything that could prove his identity.
"All the valuables I have on me have been taken away by the soldiers who escorted me." The man laughed and looked at Su Lan mockingly.
Su Lan looked thoughtfully at the small hole on the wall, and vaguely exchanged a look with Shao Hui, and when she saw Shao Hui nodding, she waved her hand and said to Li Yuan: "Take him down, take care of him strictly, and don't go wrong." ”
"What about the other two?"
"The one who got his kneecap ripped, you can give him a ride." Su Lan smiled slightly, "The other one, let's keep it first." ”
Su Lan turned around and walked out of the cell, and invited the three people in the dark room to drink tea in the upper hall.
"The situation is already clear, and the sage has told me to write about it in the court tomorrow." Liu Bin put down the teacup and looked at Su Jun, "However, if you want to make it look like you have just arrived at the military department, Lao Su Shilang will arrange one or two." ”
"Okay." Su Jun nodded, "Then Lord Liu will play it tomorrow." ”
"In that case, you and I will prepare separately." Liu Bin was born in a clean stream, and he is the mainstay of the Daxing Party, he is upright but not pedantic, and his relationship with Su Jun has always been harmonious.
After that, Su Jun and Liu Bin said goodbye and left, and when Su Jun was leaving, he secretly gave Su Lan a warning look, telling her not to act rashly.
"As for Zaroukh, I'm not as familiar as the two of you." There are only three people sitting opposite each other in the hall, and the peach blossoms in the courtyard are also bone-bearing at this time, just waiting for the spring rain, they will bloom in Jinghua, "But looking at one of them, it seems to be from a noble background." ”
"The royal court and nobles can't all speak Chinese." Shao Hui nodded, "The people of Zaluh worship strength, and revere the so-called immortal heaven, the position of the Great Khan. Only the one who holds the power will have the leisure to speak Chinese, not only in the royal court, but also in the lower departments. ”
"However, there are also ambitious people who have not yet won the position, so they learn Chinese first." Su Lan smiled and looked at Xuan Xi, "This, this should be the case." ”
"I'm afraid that there are very few such people." Xuan Xi played with the tea cup in his hand, "I wonder if Su Lang may guess the identity of this person?" ”
"Xuanlang lifted me." Su Lan's words were sarcastic, unconsciously with a bit of coldness, "Although the nobles of Zaluch are fierce, they are not uncivilized savages, and they also have long-term vision. If the Chinese dialect is good, there are dozens if not hundreds. Moreover, the people of Zaroukh can have very children, and many of those nobles have illegitimate children, so it is really difficult for me to remember them one by one. ”
"Lord Xuan will not be in charge of the Northwest General's Mansion in the future, and you will continue to be involved in this Zalukh mess in the future." Shao Hui smiled slightly, "It's also very interesting to deal with this Zaluhe. ”
Xuanxi looked at Su Lan, and saw that her expression was frank but faintly alienated, so he just smiled lightly, changed back to his face that was as colored as frost and snow in the past, and left after a few words of greeting.
Su Lan just smiled slightly, didn't get up, just kept adding tea to Shao Hui, Shao Hui's smile was still soft and a little helpless, said goodbye to Xuanxi, and drank the sixth cup of tea poured by Su Lan.
Not long after, Li Qing reported that Xuanxi had already left the palace, and Su Lan stopped adding tea to Shao Hui, Shao Hui secretly gave Li Qing a grateful look, and was about to urinate and run away, but heard Su Lan say.
"Let's go see the man again."
"The tokens are gone, what can I see?"
"Take off his clothes."
