Chapter 137: Capture II

When he returned to the room, Shen Tu Gong laughed, and Liu Rong invited him to watch Baoding at this time, in Shen Tu Gong's opinion, it was Liu Rong who gave him the steps.

In Shen Tugong's view, with the support of a local Taishou, Liu Rong is naturally willing. is even more secret: It seems that I showed goodwill to His Highness that day, and His Highness already understood.

In this way, in the early morning of the next day, Shen Tugong swept away the sadness of yesterday, got up early, and went to the mansion where Liu Rong lived in the city.

As soon as the ceremony was passed, Liu Rong personally went to the minister's camp outside the mansion, and Shen Tu Gong saluted and said: "How dare the ministers bother His Highness to greet him!" ”。

But Liu Rong did not reply to Shen Tu Gong's question, but smiled: "Why did Shen Tuqing come so early."

"Your Highness, don't blame, the ministers have learned yesterday that His Highness invited the ministers to come here to watch the Baoding, and the ministers were excited all night and did not sleep, so they will open it so early."

After finishing speaking, Shen Tugong followed Liu Rong into the mansion, but after a while, he saw Fenyin Baoding, which was protected by soldiers layer by layer.

Looking at such a huge tripod, Shen Tu Gong felt more and more that this tripod must be one of the nine tripods cast by Dayu when he collected the copper of Kyushu in the world.

And Liu Rong naturally saw the excitement of Shentu Gong, so he said: "If you can find this treasure in Fenyin, it is naturally due to Shentu Taishou."

Hearing this, Shen Tu Gong's eyes were about to shine with excitement, and he found the merit of Jiuding, but it was a great merit, so the palace said that His Majesty would no longer blame himself for the drought in Hedong, and he could not go further and enter Chang'an as an official!

Thinking of this, looking at the tripod in front of him, Shen Tugong was even happier than seeing his own father, and even knelt down and kowtowed to this treasure tripod.

He also said: "I can find Jiuding, which is all due to His Majesty's benevolence!" ”。

And Liu Rong didn't wait for him to get up, so he suddenly took out the Son of Heaven rune that his father handed over to him before he left with a solemn expression, and said to Tang Sheng: "This is the rune given by the Son of Heaven himself. I order you to immediately capture the traitor Shen Tugong with the order of the Son of Heaven."

Tang Sheng, who was standing on one side, pulled out the long sword at his waist with lightning speed and put it on Shen Tugong's neck.

And several soldiers stepped forward quickly, pressed Shen Tu Gong to the ground, and someone else stepped forward to untie the ribbon seal on Shen Tu Gong's waist.

"Your Highness! Your Highness, what is this doing? Shen Tugong said in a panic.

"Humph! Shen Tugong, you still don't know the crime! ”。

Yesterday, Liu Rong sent Wang Sheng to the Taishou Mansion, not just to let Wang Sheng pass on the edict to Shen Tugong, but to ask him to find out if there were soldiers hidden in the Taishou Mansion.

However, from the beginning to the end, Shentu Gong did not let Wang Sheng enter, and Wang Sheng had an idea to invite Shen Tu Gong in the Taishou Mansion to take care of things that night.

Wang Sheng didn't expect that it would be so simple, so just a few glasses of wine, this steward could no longer control his mouth, and told him what he knew and distorted - there are more than a thousand soldiers in the Taishou Mansion!

Then Liu Rong no longer paid attention to Shen Tugong, and immediately ordered Tang Sheng: "Tang Sheng, I order you to lead the soldiers to hold the talisman of the Son of Heaven, and take over the Taishou Mansion in Hedong together with Dangyang Marquis Jia Yi!" ”。

Tang Sheng inserted the long sword back into the scabbard at his waist and saluted: "No! ”。

After an hour passed, Tang Sheng came back to his life, stretched out his hands to present his Son of Heaven sigil, and said: "The minister and the Marquis of Dangyang have controlled the Taishou Mansion!" I hereby present the sigil to His Highness".

Taking the sigil, Liu Rong nodded and said, "How about the soldiers in the mansion?" ”。

"Back to His Royal Highness, when Yang Hou said, these soldiers were bewitched by the traitor Shen Tu Gong, and Yang Hou has ordered a lieutenant to bring all this soldiers back to the camp."

Liu Rong is naturally clear about the teacher's methods, and when he heard Tang Sheng's words, Liu Rong was even more relieved.

Looking at Shen Tu Gong, who was sitting on the ground on the side all night, Liu Rong said angrily: "Shen Tu Gong! Are you guilty!? ”。

Shen Tu Gong now knows too well, what should he do to have a chance to live, if he says that he resells official food, even if he has a hundred heads, it is not enough to cut off.

And Shen Tu Gong was already in a cloak at this time, and he completely lost the dignity of a county Taishou when he came in the early morning, "Sin Minister...... The guilty ministers are guilty, and it is because of the dereliction of duty that hundreds of thousands of people in Hedong will suffer."

After speaking, Shen Tugong kept kowtowing to Liu Rong.

"It's really that I don't cry when I don't see the coffin, I don't die if I don't see the Yellow River, and now I don't want to tell the truth after being arrested," Liu Rong said in his heart.

"Escort me!" , Liu Rong said angrily.

Looking at such a hard-mouthed Shen Tu Gong, Liu Rong had no choice, even if he got his father's permission, he could arrest Shen Tu Gong.

However, according to the Han law, only the Son of Heaven has the right to interrogate and punish officials whose rank is more than 2,000 stones.

Then Liu Rong planned to go to the county guard mansion with Tang Sheng, and when he went out of the gate, he remembered that he almost forgot about the envoy of the Son of Heaven sent by his father to thoroughly investigate the affairs of Hedong. Only then did he hurriedly order Tang Sheng to call Zhi Du away and go with him.

As soon as he saw Jia Yi, Liu Rong immediately ordered to summon all the officials of Anyi who were more than 100 stones here.

As soon as the Taishou Mansion was surrounded by soldiers, the city of Anyi exploded, and all the officials were frightened and their legs weakened.

When they learned that His Royal Highness had ordered them all to go to the Taishou Yamen, even if they didn't want to, they had no choice but to go there immediately after hearing the call.

When these officials arrived, Liu Rong cleared his throat and said: "Hedong Taishou Shen Tugong is greedy for the grain of the official warehouse of the Mo Imperial Court, and he has been captured!" ”。

Liu Rong's words were to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and use Shentu Gong to intimidate the rest of the officials in Hedong.

Hearing this, the officials present were so frightened that they even knelt on the ground and kowtowed, claiming to be a capital crime.

And Jing Changshi and Yang Wu, the post boys of Hedong Capital, squeezed out of the crowd, and kept kowtowing, while saying: "Your Highness spares your life, Your Highness spares your life!" ”。

Seeing that he was in order, Liu Rong was naturally very happy in his heart, but he still had to show a look of incomprehension, and said: "What kind of crime do you have, why do you want to spare your life."

"Sinner...... The criminal ministers and others also coveted the grain of the official warehouse together with Shentu Taishou."

Yang Wu, the chief of Hedong, was a confidant of Shentu Gong, and then under Liu Rong's half-frightened and half-interrogation, Yang Wu told him how Shentu Gong co-opted the officials of Hedong and the wealthy and wealthy households in Hedong to deceive the court and resell the grain stored in the official warehouse.

As early as Liu Rong's signaling, Wang Sheng took out a bamboo slip and a pen to record his confession in the record.

The more Liu Rong listened, the more annoyed he became, and the more he looked at this Yang Wu in front of him, the more angry he became, originally thinking that Yang Wu, the chief of Hedong, was just an accomplice, but he didn't want to pull the officials of Hedong County into the water.

Liu Rong has been angry in his heart since he arrived in Hedong, and the anger in his heart has accumulated more and more in Hedong for many days, and he roared angrily: "Is it tolerable or unbearable!" ”。

However, without waiting for others to speak, Liu Rong stepped forward and pulled out the long sword at his waist, and the cold light flashed, only to see blood splashed everywhere, and a big human head fell to the ground.

When this person's head fell to the ground, Yang Wuzhi's body also collapsed on the ground, and blood splashed on the face of Du Post Tongjing, who was closest to Yang Wu.

Nadu Post Tongjing only felt that his face was wet, stretched out his trembling hand and touched his face to look at it, and let out a long howl of fright, and fainted on the ground......

Liu Rong had never killed anyone before, and it would be a little disgusting for anyone to kill someone for the first time, but at this time, Liu Rong never thought that he had cut off a human head, but killed a brute in human skin!

And those hundred stone officials who had already been broken saw this, and a few timid ones wet their pants on the spot.

Then there was a burst of bitter crying, and he shouted hoarsely: "Your Highness spare your life!" Your Highness spares your life! ”。

Liu Rong raised his long sword and pointed at these officials, and said angrily: "Dare to cry again!" Kill them all! ”。

As soon as these words came out, the effect was really immediate, and none of these people dared to cry out again.

Liu Rong took the cloth handed over by Wang Sheng, wiped the residual blood on the long sword, and then turned to Jia Yi's side, "Teacher, how to deal with the current situation in Hedong."

"At this time, there is no Taishou and Duwei in Hedong, if all these officials are killed, the government affairs of Hedong disaster relief will be delayed, or if you don't deal with these officials with a hundred stones, let them provide disaster relief. It is not too late to dispose of it".

Also, if all the governors of Hedong are arrested, and if the officials are killed, the entire system in Hedong will be in chaos, and the people who have already been affected will be affected.

"Let's go back to raise disaster relief for the time being, if you let me know who dares to derelict their duties, Yang Wu will be their fate."

The officials present in this way were relieved, kowtowed, and said in unison: "The ministers don't dare, the ministers don't dare!" ”。

Just when he got up and was about to leave the gate of the county government, Liu Rong suddenly remembered something: "Where is Hedong Hu Cao!" ”。

Hearing this, Hedong Zhihu Cao's legs were so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, "What have I done again?"

I had to droop my face and turn my head to salute: "Your Highness, the ministers are here."

"You go and send an official letter, copy a few letters, and then send someone to hand it over to the county commanders in Hedong, so that they can be diligent in disaster relief!"

"No! The subordinate shall retire for the time being".

After finishing speaking, this Cao is busy turning around and walked out without looking back, and after walking out of the steps of the county government yamen, he only felt a chill down his spine, and touched his head with both hands, and said happily: "It's still there, it's still there!" ”。

……………………………………………………………………

He arrested Shen Tugong and killed Hedong Changshi, and Zhou Yang, the commander of the capital, must have been imprisoned at this time, Hedong was still helping the people affected by the disaster at this time, and if he left at this time, he would ignore these hundreds of thousands of people.

This must be waited until the father and the court discuss the new Taishou of Hedong, so that he can get out of here.

After thinking about it so deeply, Liu Rong said: "Teacher, why don't you ask Zhiqing to take Shentu Gong back to Chang'an first and meet his father, how about I wait in Hedong for the time being?" ”。

Jia Yi thought for a while: "What His Royal Highness said is very true, Hedong cannot be ruled by no one, Tingwei came here to find out about the drought in Hedong, and now that the matter has been concluded, he naturally wants to return to Chang'an to report to His Majesty."
