When the second prince and the third prince were imprisoned in the prison, the Zhao family, the Peng family and others in the prison finally gave up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the days after the forced palace, families in Shangjing City continued to be raided, and the prison was almost overcrowded.
Today is a special day, many people rushed to the East City Gate early in the morning and walked together.
Among these people, there were many horse-drawn carriages, which went out of the city gate one after another.
In the end, the large open space outside the East City Gate was full of black heads, but it was a strange thing that so many people gathered together and no hawkers walked around.
The people who did not rush early, when they were at the east city gate, could only regrettably be told by the tiger army guarding the city gate that the open space outside the city gate could no longer stand people.
But there are always some young people who do not give up, and there is no place outside the city gate, so they climb the tree in a hurry in front of everyone's eyes, and watch the movement outside the city gate without blinking.
Seeing this, the tiger army didn't stop it, but just told him to stand firm on the tree, but don't fall down.
The open space outside the city gate can be described as somewhat distinct.
There is a place where there are Confucian scholars wearing Guozijian or direct embellishments, there are about hundreds of people, and it is estimated that the scholars in the capital are here.
There is a place where the son and brother are wearing good and elegant clothes, and in the front row, it can be seen that it is Li Qianyou and others who were caught a few days ago.
Not far from this group of people, large and small carriages gathered together, and from the curtains blown by the breeze, you could faintly see the delicate faces inside, and the carriages were guarded by family members.
In addition, there is also a place where the rich and blessed old men call each other after meeting, "Brother Yan is also here", "Well, after all, it was the family that committed an accident, so I have to come and see" and so on.
Outside of them are all ordinary people, and these people present, whether they are high-ranking families, wealthy businessmen, or ordinary people, are all dressed in plain and elegant clothes.
On this boundary, there was also a clearing that was held by the handles of the Tiger Army, inside and out, and it was a large, empty place, with a high platform with a chair on it.
Not far from this high platform, there was a large clearing, which had been dug one by one, and there were several carriages beside it.
"Your Majesty, solemnly avoid!"
"Your Majesty, solemnly avoid!"
"Your Majesty, solemnly avoid!"
The voices came from far to near, and the people gathered on the main street at the gate of the eastern city kowtowed one after another.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Seeing the arrival of the holy car, the veiled young women and their wives also walked out of the carriage gathered outside the city gate, and everyone shouted long live.
First there was a team of 100 Tiger Ben Army, then Long Yuan, followed by a group of courtiers in court clothes, and at the end of the procession, the prisoner cart was pressed by the Tiger Ben Army.
When His Majesty's holy car had passed, the kneeling people stood up, and I don't know who threw a rotten leaf at the prisoner's cart, and then, as if a taboo had been opened, the rotten leaves, the glutinous rice balls, and all the rice balls were thrown into the prisoner's cart as if they were not worth any money.
The Tiger Army, which was holding down the prisoner cart, did not stop it, and even avoided it slightly, so that the people had a wider space to throw.
Emperor Chengde got off the dragon chariot, climbed on the high platform, looked at the crowd kneeling on the ground, and said loudly: "Flat!" ”
"Thank you, Lord Long."
Chu Xiang, Shu Hongxuan and other important ministers surrounded Emperor Chengde.
Emperor Chengde looked at the prisoner cart that was already full of rotten leaves and glutinous rice balls, waved his hand, and said to Zhou Tingyu: "Let's start." ”
Zhou Tingyu stood in front of the stage, with a plain face, and said in a loud voice: "Bring it up." ”
The Sergeants opened the cart and rudely dragged the people out of the cart and knelt in front of the open space where holes had been dug in the trenches.
Zhou Tingyu held a stack of papers in his hand, looked at the people standing around, and said loudly: "The whole Great Xia knows that our sons and daughters of Great Xia are brave and good at fighting and have wiped out the Turks. As you have heard, we have paid for the lives of more than 8,000 warriors. But! ”
Zhou Tingyu raised his voice, making people involuntarily focus on him.
"However, what you don't know is that if there is a slight mistake in it, not only will we not be able to exterminate the Turks, but it is even very likely that the 100,000-strong army will not return, and even the border cities will be lost, just because some of us have betrayed the country! Intelligence among the generals was sold to the Turks! ”
"Wow-"
There was an uproar and commotion in the crowd, and even Li Qianyou's group of sons and brothers could not hide their horror.
Aren't you here today to read out the indictment of the second prince and the third prince for rebellion? How did it have anything to do with collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?
Zhou Tingyu raised a pile of paper in his hand, "These are the confessions of traitors, and they confess what they have done." ”
"The Zhao family in Fengcheng, under the guise of a merchant, smuggled thirty-six truckloads of grain to the Turks and supplied food to tens of thousands of Turkic people."
"Shhhh
"Oh my God, the rations of tens of thousands of people, or to the Turks, is this crazy?"
There was a burst of surprise in the crowd, there was such a bold person, even the courtiers who heard about it for the first time were also stunned, and then dyed with anger, looking at the Zhao family's eyes full of coldness.
"The Zhao family's crime is extremely heinous, the crime is unforgivable, and now the main branch of Zhao Youde's family, regardless of gender, is sentenced to beheading. Zhao side branches, within two generations of Zhao Youde's close relatives, men over the age of 16 were sentenced to beheading, within two generations of Zhao Youde, men under the age of 16, and all Zhao side branches within five generations, regardless of men, women, old and children, were sentenced to punishment, and they were all assigned to the Northwest Road to reclaim fertile land, and no imperial examination was allowed within three generations. ”
The Northwest Road is the Turkic territory that has just been pocketed by Daxia, because it is located in the northwest, Emperor Chengde is simply lazy, and it is directly called the Northwest Road.
Emperor Chengde had his own thoughts in his heart, for his next actions, he didn't want to hurt Tianhe too much, so in addition to only punishing the evil, the male within two generations of close relatives was sentenced to beheading, and the rest were sent to the northwest to reclaim and build the city.
Zhou Tingyu had just finished speaking, and he shouted, "Sacrifice!" Kill! ”
Immediately, there was a tiger army that pressed Zhao Youde's family and other men within two generations to the pit, with knives in their hands and heads rolling.
I didn't even shout out my grievances......
Many people were frightened by Zhou Tingyu's sharp desire to kill when he said he would kill.
The head fell to the ground, and the blood gathered into a small stream, and when it turned down, someone reacted.
"Ahh
The voice stopped abruptly, and I don't know if someone else covered his mouth or himself.
Zhou Tingyu's face was expression, and with a wave of his hand, the rest of the Zhao family was pulled aside, and after that, he was sent to Beijiang.
