Chapter 68: The First Song of the Phoenix (I)
Cui Laohan never expected that he had just told Donghai Gong at noon that he would be summoned to the state government hall at the end of the night, and Cui Dahu was also detained.
What he didn't expect was that Cui Dahu's house slave Cui Si was also there, and he was a witness who gave evidence that Cui Dahu had insulted his daughter-in-law and murdered his son's life.
Cui Dahu's eyes breathed fire, almost swallowing Cui Si, Cui Si didn't dare to look at him, just kowtowed, while confessing how Cui Dahu raped the little lady of the Cui family, and then beat Cui Laohan's son who went to question to death, and the body was thrown into the Zhangshui River overnight.
"This is a false accusation! My lord, this is a false accusation! This Cui Si tried to steal my property yesterday, and was beaten by me, holding a grudge! When Cui Si was telling, Cui Dahu shouted vigorously.
And Cui Zhuo, who also heard the news, hurried over, stood aside and waited for Cui Si to explain, bowed down and said: "Donghai Gong, the house slave falsely accuses the master, only based on one-sided words, I'm afraid it is not enough!" There was no joy or sorrow on his face, but his tone was already a little unkind.
Lu Ning stared at him, "You want to protect Cui Dahu?!" ”
Cui Zhuo froze, "That's not it!" However, in investigating and judging a case, there must always be solid evidence. "This Donghai Gong is really a little weird, let's just say that Dahu's house slave doesn't know how to be bought by him, and Dahu is only afraid that he has really done such an evil thing, and he will guarantee him, in case this Donghai Duke has any ironclad evidence, he will be implicated.
I gritted my teeth secretly in my heart, this big tiger, I won't kill him when I look back!
Lu Ning smiled, "Okay, that's good!" He glanced at Cui Zhuo a few times and said with a smile: "Cui Changshi, it seems that you are not the henchman of the brothers who stayed at home, you still have the leisure to take care of your nephew tonight, you don't see Wang Linji and the others, and you are not there at night?" ”
Cui Zhuo was stunned, not knowing what Donghai Gong's words meant.
At this time, a guard outside, without waiting for the big and small peaches to sing, had already rushed in, ran to Lu Ning's ear, and whispered something.
Cui Zhuo faintly heard that there seemed to be the sound of firecrackers outside, but he didn't know what it was.
Lu Ning had already grown up and shouted: "It depends on today, whose blood is shed!" ”
At this time, Cui Zhuo listened to the crowd in the palace, and faintly saw that outside the hall, a column of armor soldiers was hurrying over.
His heart trembled slightly, Donghai Gong, is he going to use troops to arrest himself and wait for him to be imprisoned? But, why? Obviously, this Donghai Gong has the upper hand in Zhangzhou, and suddenly uses force? Is it an excuse for the king of Jinjiang to depose him?
……
Zhangzhou East City Gate, suddenly shouted to kill the sky, the city gate does not know when to be opened from the inside, the cavalry roared in, there are two or three hundred horsemen, after entering the city, they rushed straight to the state government, the people in the city woke up from their sleep, closed the door one after another, and were terrified.
After that, they heard the shouts of killing, and these cavalry, as if they had encountered a blocking enemy, immediately broke out a fierce clash between the two sides.
At the other end of the city, there was a sudden sound of killing, but it was in the direction of Sima Wang Lin Ji's mansion, and one hundred and ten black-clothed people came out of Sima Mansion, galloping along the long street, and also went to the mansion to kill.
At the gate of the palace, dozens of guards formed the Modao phalanx, which made the attacking cavalry whirl in the square and hesitated, in front of the Modao phalanx, there were several corpses of horses, and there were horses with broken legs neighing and wailing, more than a dozen corpses that were almost cut into pieces, and several riders who had lost their horses retreated in embarrassment.
The position of the commander on the far left side of the guard array, holding up the Mo sword high, but his arms are not wearing armor to reveal the majestic man with the unicorn tattoo, is Hu Yanzan.
In this decade, it was Huyanzan who guarded the mansion of the East China Sea.
"Come on, come on!" Hu Yanzan roared angrily, "Let the master break a few more foals and have fun!" ”
The armor soldiers behind him, the look of anxiety on the faces of some of the people who had initially received the battle had disappeared, and everyone was stimulated by the bloody scene to lose their minds, and followed the warlord to let out a roar.
At this time, Lu Ning was standing on the high wall of the mansion, he was dressed in black and pants, and it was not easy to be noticed for a while.
He first went to kill the sentinels left by the Quanzhou cavalry outside the city, and then returned to the palace.
With the bow and arrow in his hand, only four or five arrows were shot, rescuing several guards who were almost stabbed to death by the riders.
Listening to the whistles everywhere, Lu Ning bowed his head slightly, the length and frequency of whistles were all information transmission, and these whistles were also made by him.
From the whistle messages from all directions, the guards outside the city have taken over the four city gates, and three soldiers are coming to the aid of the government, among which there are cavalry guns.
Today, the Quanzhou army will attack the city and there is an internal response in the city, Lu Ning found out last night, these days, every night, he will lurk and go to Wang Linji and other mansions to listen to the news.
However, Lu Ning did not inform Lu Ping, the chief of the guard, of this information, he wanted to see what would happen to his pro-army, whether it was a scout released from afar, or a temporary response.
In the direction of Quanzhou, the sentinel is a hundred miles away, if he is still attacked by the Quanzhou army, then he should not train any pro-army, lead a large family, cross the sea and go to the sea, and go to the Southeast Asian tribes to be a chief.
Looking at it now, although the reaction of the guards is unsatisfactory, in fact, they are too demanding of them, and they always think about what would happen if they were in their own action group in their previous life, but in fact, in this era, their own pro-army is already very presentable.
In the distance, the sound of killing suddenly became loud, and it was a guard who intercepted the Zhuang Ke killed by Sima Mansion.
Then, Lu Ning looked at a street and alley, where dozens of horsemen were galloping forward, and the target was the Quanzhou cavalry who were reassembling near the square and were about to attack the Mo sword formation in front of the mansion.
Lu Ning smiled and slowly hung the bow and arrow on his body, and the crisis in the city came to an end for the time being.
Quanzhou military is a Yunnan horse, strong endurance, but the impact is insufficient, it is impossible to catch up with the fast horse of the cavalry, can only be flying kites, coupled with heavy step cooperation, and is not allowed to gallop in the city, the fate of this Quanzhou cavalry can be imagined.
