Imperial City Division.

Under the crooked neck tree.

Li Chen'an and his eldest grandson Jinghong had a simple lunch together.

The eldest grandson Jinghong did not say anything about the changes in the situation that were very likely to occur next, but told some stories about the past.

For example, Empress Lu's literary talent is extremely high, and she studied under Mr. Chunfu's seat for three years.

and the current emperor are classmates.

For example, the martial arts of the county lord of Yun'an are extremely high!

Her teacher is the eldest grandson Jinghong!

is also like that county horse Qiao Zitong, he doesn't have any great background, he is a poor scholar.

In the spring of the first year of Zhaohua, the cold of the spring was extremely serious.

Qiao Zitong entered Kyoto, prepared to participate in Enke that year, and stayed in Wenchang Temple, but almost froze to death.

The lord of Yun'an accompanied Queen Lu to Wenchang Temple to incense and happened to meet him, so he rescued Qiao Zitong.

That year, Enke, Qiao Zitong was the top student in high school.

The lord of Yun'an was overjoyed, and asked the emperor to decree that Qiao Zitong should be recruited as the county horse, Qiao Zitong Xu was grateful to the lord of Yun'an for saving his life, he gave up entering the court as an official, and married the lord of Yun'an in the plum garden.

It was the second year of Zhaohua.

The eldest grandson Jinghong seems to be really old.

He babbled a lot, and he didn't need any response from Li Chenan, it seemed that he just needed such a listener.

Until it came to the third year of Zhaohua, he stopped talking.

"Well, it's been a long time since I've said so much, and my mouth is sour. ”

"Go for it......"

He stood up and lay down in the rocking chair again, looking at the fragmented sunlight that had been split by the leaves of the large-leaved fig.

"Go to the Seven Good Places and have a look. ”

"If you're not feeling well, come out and then slowly get used to it. ”

Li Chenan got up and bowed: "Could it be really the Hades Palace?"

The eldest grandson Jinghong grinned and waved his hand, Wang Zheng Jinzhong also looked at Li Chen'an's back and smiled, he took Li Chen'an to the seventh place.

......

......

The Imperial City Division occupies a huge area!

Walking all the way southeast from this crooked neck tree, Li Chen'an saw many houses hidden in the forest.

Black roads, black walls, black tiles, black doors, and black windows.

Except for the occasional pale yellow osmanthus on the osmanthus tree, except for black, Li Chenan has not seen any beautiful colors.

Such an environment can be described as solemn.

But in fact, it feels extremely oppressive.

"Why do you have to make it so dark?"

Wang Zheng Jinzhong thought for a while, "This question is estimated to be asked by all those who enter the Imperial City Division." ”

"Actually, I heard Mr. Changsun say that it wasn't like this when the Imperial City Division was rebuilt twenty years ago. ”

"Empress Lu likes to be flamboyant, and thinks that although the Imperial City Division used to do things that could not see the light, it is better to stand in the sun now. ”

"So at that time, there were a lot of flowers and plants planted here, and most of these houses were blue bricks and blue tiles. ”

Li Chenan was slightly stunned, and as far as he could see, it was difficult to find the traces of the past that Wang Zheng Jinzhong said.

"What happened next?"

Wang Zhengjinzhong stood next to an osmanthus tree, "Of course, it was the incident in the third year of Zhaohua!"

"When I got in the car and waited for Lu Zhanxiao to be destroyed, the adults were very angry. ”

He wanted to do something at that time, but was dissuaded by Queen Lu, so he endured it. ”

"But in the winter of the third year of Zhaohua, when you were born only a few months ago, Queen Lu hanged herself and died, and you are missing!"

Hanging?

This word caught Li Chen'an's attention.

"This time it completely angered the adults!"

He leaned over and whispered in Li Chen'an's ear: "The lord had a big quarrel with the emperor, and then took all the seven people in Kyoto with the Imperial City Division...... There are thousands!"

"My lord took more than a thousand people, and that night, I cut off the heads of many people!"

"There are senior members of the court, female eunuchs of the harem, and there are also Qianniu Wei and a cadre who guarded the palace at that time......"

"At that time, my subordinates were just a small spy in the seventh department, and I was fortunate to participate. ”

Wang Zhengjinzhong pointed to a small dark building opposite, and said:

"It's black, it's not all lacquer, it's ...... Mixed with the blood of those people!"

The lord said, "Take this as a condolence. ”

The lord also said...... It's better for the Imperial City Division to walk in the dark, in the sun...... No one will be afraid!"

Li Chenan was taken aback, he opened his mouth wide, "...... How many people do you have to kill?"

Wang Zhengjinzhong continued to walk forward, "Not much, only 1,800." ”

"How come I haven't heard of such a big thing?"

"Because the emperor suppressed this matter...... That night, fires broke out in Kyoto, and many mansions were burned, but of course those mansions were actually empty, and the corpses were all found here, and the people were later informed that they were bandits. ”

"Jingzhao Mansion arrested many people in the rivers and lakes, and cut them indiscriminately, and the matter ended indiscriminately. ”

"Since you are now the deputy of the Imperial City Division, you will know these things sooner or later. ”

"Ji Tai, the old king and eight calves, officially took power after that bloodbath. ”

"Lord Changsun took people from seven places that night to slaughter the Prime Minister Liang who had already died of old age at that time...... It can't be said that it is full of doors, and the back is checked, and there are still a few. ”

Li Chenan pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that behind the incident in the third year of Zhaohua is a bureau of people named Xi Wei?"

"Well, that guy is the mastermind, and the Imperial City Division has been looking for him all these years...... The adults said that I am afraid that there will be eyebrows in the past two days. ”

"Caught his tail?"

Wang Zheng Jinzhong shook his head, "It was you who scolded Ji Tai today and vomited blood, and the adults said that Ji Tai would definitely ask Xi Wei for advice, because there is not much time left for Ji Tai." ”

"Therefore, the military intelligence department has been dispatched today, and the prime minister's mansion is under surveillance within a radius of ten miles. ”

"If someone really goes to the Prime Minister's Mansion, I'm afraid they can really wait for the rabbit to catch that old guy Xi Wei. ”

Turning past a pitch-black courtyard wall covered with dead vines, Wang Zhengjinzhong stopped.

Li Chenan raised his head, and suddenly heard a heart-rending scream from inside, crying in pain, and wailing and begging for mercy.

Wang Zheng Jinzhong shook his head, "My lord has always said that interrogating prisoners should not cause such a big battle, and these bastards have forgotten about it?"

He pushed open the hidden door.

There is a plaque the size of a palm on the lintel.

The plaque bears two words in seven places.

He followed Wang Zhengjinzhong and walked in, and there was a strong smell of blood in his face.

It's a square yard.

In the courtyard, five people were stripped naked and hung from the cross, one on the left holding a leather whip, and one on the right holding a pig-killing knife.

There was one more person ahead.

He sat on a chair with a roast chicken in his hand.

There's also a jug of wine next to it!

He drank wine while eating chicken and said slowly: "Now that I think about it, I want to recruit?"

"It's late!"

"Skinned them!"

"I heard that there is a new Lord Xiao Li in our Imperial City Division, and you can sew a thick human fur coat by peeling a hundred skins!"

"Give it to the Great Commander to give it to this Lord Xiao Li, and I guess there will be more work in our seven places in the future!"

As soon as he finished saying this, he suddenly looked up, and those little eyes suddenly widened.

He got up from the chair, a chicken in his left hand and a jar of wine in his right hand, and ran towards Wang Zhengjinzhong in a hurry.

His grinning grin:

"Commander, please eat chicken!"
