Chapter 319: Humiliation
"Mingwei General Zhu Tingfang, I am ordered to investigate and handle Cangzhou affairs with full powers!"
Overnight, this phrase was repeated everywhere on the streets of Cangzhou. And the chaos at the gate of Cangzhou Palace was because there were many people present at that time, and it spread all over the city for a while. What Xu Xianzun took out a generous reward and ordered people to attack the palace, and what palace in which the eldest prince came out to stop but was regarded as an impostor...... Anyway, there are all kinds of arguments, but there is only one of the most mainstream.
That General Mingwei is a good one! However, it was said that he knocked down the anti-thief leader who led the occupation of the palace with one arrow - although according to the words of the eldest prince, it is still debatable whether Xian Yunhe was a thief - and then shot off the hat of the Xu County official who was overjoyed and came forward to speak, which frightened people to pee their pants; The last arrow pierced directly in front of the eldest prince who came out in a hurry, causing people to sit on the ground in fright.
As soon as Zhu Tingfang arrived, he used three arrows to let the entire Cangzhou from top to bottom understand his sharp methods and firm determination.
However, few people knew that the majestic-looking General Mingwei actually only brought those twelve people. Even if Zhu Er's guards who couldn't go with the palace outside, there were more than 20 people in total, all of whom were from the Zhu family of the Zhao State Mansion. As for the soldiers and horses of the Rui Cavalry Battalion he wanted, he was left far behind by his group, who were driving day and night with one man and two horses.
At this moment, Zhu Tingfang ignored the officials and gentry and businessmen who posted to see him, nor did he pay attention to the comments of outsiders, and even left Zhu Er, who was full of flattery, behind him, and after asking some inside information, he led people into an underground stone chamber in the palace that was used for wartime concealment.
The moment the lock was opened, he saw a figure suddenly rushing out, and without waiting for the left and right generals to rush forward to intercept him, he directly flew up and kicked the person back. The next moment, he heard a series of cries of pain. Raising his hand to signal that everyone around him did not need to panic, he said in a cold voice: "General Mingwei Zhu Tingfang, I am ordered to investigate and deal with Cangzhou affairs with full authority!" ”
As soon as he ordered the people to shout all over the city came out, the stone room was silent, followed by a deep voice: "But is the eldest son of Zhao Guogong?" ”
"Not bad." Zhu Tingfang took the lead, walked straight in, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him with torches left and right. And as he descended the steps, the light of the torches illuminated the way, and most people could not bear to look at the scene inside. Especially Zhu Er, who fell last, he poked out his head and glanced at his head, and then immediately dragged the little peanut next to him and walked back.
When he got back to the ground, he asked incredulously, "Did you eat bear's heart leopard gall?" How dare you humiliate these guards and the cavalry battalion like this? This is going to be endless, has Xian Yunhe's head been caught by the door? ”
The old salted fish who followed him on the side, his face also became gloomy. Hearing that the hundreds of people in Xian Yunhe had taken down the royal guards and those sharp cavalry battalion soldiers and horses, he felt that something was wrong. Moreover, even if it is taken, so many people need to be taken care of, and if one is not good, there will even be turmoil, but Xian Yunhe and the others ignore it, as if they are not worried about this matter at all.
It wasn't until he saw the scene just now that he knew what a detrimental method people used!
All of them were stripped of their clothes, pants, shoes and socks, and left naked in this stone chamber, and at the door were two stone doors with heavy locks, and when they came in just now, dozens of people were used to move the dozen stone piers that opened the doors.
Not only that, but Little Peanut also just swallowed and vomited, and like the eldest prince, no one delivered food at all in the past few days, but just threw in more than ten or twenty steamed buns from the ventilation gap in the stone room. There are more monks and less porridge, and you don't have to think about it and don't know if you don't have enough to eat!
At this time, Xiao Peanut thought of Xian Yunhe, whose right hand was injured and captured by Zhu Tingfang, and suddenly glared at Zhu Er with hatred, until his shoulder was gently patted twice by the old salted fish, and then he swallowed his anger and said: "Even if they are tied, they will help each other untie the rope, and besides, their clothes Uncle Yunhe will come in handy!" What's wrong with being naked, there are so many women in the silkworm house who are naked! ”
Zhu Er was stunned for a moment, and after being silent for a moment, the old salted fish said lightly: "You sons and brothers from rich backgrounds don't know what life the poorest people live. The family shares a pair of pants, and whoever goes out wears it, and the women go to the ground like the men, and work topless when it is hottest. Three men in a family marry a daughter-in-law. The so-called humiliation, no one cares at all. ”
Although the old salted fish's voice was flat, Zhu Er's scalp tingled when he heard it.
In his eyes, the beggars competing for food were already the poorest people in the world, but he didn't expect that there would be even more outrageous ...... After a long time, he heard the old salted fish open his mouth again.
"Cang Liao knows etiquette, and knows honor and disgrace when he has enough food and clothing. Guan Zi's words, most of you who have read the book have just read it, how do you know the real scene of the people? Being stripped naked is humiliation, and you want to die? Hehe, if this is the case, I don't know how many poor people have experienced this, and the people who are going to die can probably fill a few rivers! ”
Zhu Tingfang, who happened to come out, heard this, and then looked at his second brother who had "run away from home", and he couldn't help but squeeze his hands lightly, and when the knuckles clicked. Seeing that Zhu Er, who heard the movement, looked back, and immediately hid behind the old salted fish and the little peanut, he smiled, but there was no joy in the laughter.
"The protector is not good, the prince is lost, and the clothes and weapons are obtained by others...... One by one, these are all great crimes. No matter what their origins were, or what their exploits were, they were all inevitably punished. Because all the intrigues and trade-offs aside, they all made one of the biggest mistakes. ”
Zhu Tingfang glanced at the people in front of him with very different identities, and said word by word: "I thought that Queen Han was held hostage and wanted to blackmail Taizu to withdraw from the army, but Taizu only did one thing, Mingli agreed, secretly selected eight hundred elites, personally raided, and rescued Queen Han in one fell swoop." Afterwards, Taizu only said one sentence, but if there is such a thing again, take this as an example! ”
"If you succumb to the bandits because you are afraid of the hostages, you will never have peace!"
Zhu Tingfang's voice was neither loud nor small, and in the stone room behind him, many of the guards and officers and soldiers who were either discouraged, gritted their teeth, or angry, or listless, heard it. Duan Yonghui, the commander of the left battalion of the Rui Cavalry Battalion, who had just been kicked hard by Zhu Tingfang, couldn't help but punch the wall next to him.
How could he have thought that the eldest prince, a dragon son and phoenix grandson, would be held hostage; How could he have thought that the eldest prince would be so stupid and would actually deceive them in the past, so that the thieves would have a chance to be drugged; How could he have thought that those thieves would be so shameless and directly stripped them of their clothes and weapons! He wasn't the one of those guards who put down their weapons when they knew that the eldest prince was being held hostage!
After saying this, Zhu Tingfang instructed one of the guards beside him: "Go and take back those clothes and clothes and return them to them." As for the wrong size, let them adjust it themselves! If you want to atone your merits, then you should all cheer up and wash away the shame on your body with practical actions! Think about what caused things to get to this point. ”
He paused as he spoke, and then said unhurriedly: "The two hundred people of the left battalion of the Rui cavalry battalion will soon arrive in Cangzhou, and the leader of the team is the commander of the left battalion, Du Heng." ”
In the stone room, Duan Yonghui's scalp was numb as he struggled to get up, not only him, but many people. Even the guards who were not from the Rui Cavalry Battalion couldn't help but be secretly frightened while being embarrassed because of the embarrassing situation just now.
The exchange of commanders between the Rui Cavalry Battalion and the Linhai Battalion was decided by the Emperor Qiangang before the end of last year, and the decision was made by the Emperor Qiangang and the people, of course, because of the support of the two cabinet elders at the bottom of the cabinet, Wu Ge Lao and Zhang Yu, the first assistant Jiang Pavilion elder was restrained by the second assistant Confucius scholar, and finally the whole thing was passed without panic.
However, when Du Heng, the commander of the Linhai battalion, entered the left battalion of the Rui Cavalry Battalion as the commander, the top and bottom of the Rui Cavalry Battalion did not obey him. was involved in the previous Linhai camp rebellion but was still unharmed, how could there be such a cheap thing! However, Du Heng's methods were ingenious, divided and co-opted, and he didn't know who to go through to transfer the two old departments, and all kinds of means were used together, and in the end the thorns were all scared.
It was easy to follow the eldest prince out of Beijing and avoid this commander, but I didn't expect to run into it again! And this time they are still guilty, no matter what kind of cold eyes they are subjected to, and what kind of punishment they are punished, they will not be judged! So far, if they don't keep up with Zhu Tingfang, the eldest son of Zhao Guogong, it will be over!
After the words disturbed people's hearts, Zhu Tingfang hooked his hand and motioned for Zhu Er to come over. When he took Zhu Er to a courtyard and stepped into the three spacious study rooms in the center, he glanced around at the neat collection of books, and finally looked at Zhu Er reflexively. But after entering the door, the person only moved two steps, as if he was ready to flee at any time.
"If I give an order, everyone outside will stop you, do you think you can run?"
Zhu Er was dumbfounded by Zhu Tingfang's words, and had to take a few steps forward, but he refused to get close to Zhu Tingfang's body within five steps. He knew how powerful his brother's small grappling skills were, and even if it wasn't likely, he hoped to escape the beating. Just as he was thinking this, he heard something unexpected.
"This time you happened to be at the right time, and you did a remarkable job. In particular, inciting the eldest prince and Changlu County Ling Xu Cheng and the gang of people to treat each other as enemies, this trick is the finishing touch. ”
Seeing that Zhu Er's smirk was so stupid that his mouth was about to reach the root of his ears, Zhu Tingfang said casually: "It's just that you didn't calculate that Xu Cheng was unwilling to wait for death, and he actually planned to break the jar and fight hard; didn't count that the anti-thief leader dared to rip off the clothes and weapons of the Rui cavalry battalion and equip his own people, and dared to kill the palace, almost killing Xu Cheng. In that regard, you are still far behind. ”
Although he was told by the eldest brother that it was still far away, Zhu Er was still overjoyed.
In the past, he was either ignored or ignored, but he did something that his eldest brother nodded and praised, and he was already very content. However, the next moment, he somehow, without thinking, burst out with a sentence.
"Big brother, that Xian Yunhe is not an anti-thief leader, the eldest prince has already said it, they were just forced to go to the palace to plead to him, and they were regarded as anti-thieves, that is Xu Cheng's nonsense ......"
"Some people outside may believe it, but Xu Cheng doesn't believe it, those gentry and businessmen don't believe it, do you think the prince himself will turn back? Why, is it possible that you want to open your eyes for a group of anti-thieves? ”
"I didn't!" Zhu Er subconsciously retorted, but then said with a heart, "I think they are also forced to be helpless, can't they recruit ......?"
"Zhao'an? Are they feared pirates, ravaging bandits, or barbarians? Do you think that the word Zhao'an can be given casually? Put away your senseless compassion. The eldest prince is still unable to protect himself, let alone others? At the very least, only the first evil must be asked, and the rest will be forgiven. ”
"But big brother, if you want to kill that Xian Yunhe, those hundreds of people will definitely be ruined!" Zhu Er was suddenly anxious, "It was the old salted fish who desperately suppressed those people before, otherwise the eldest brother, you will take these people from our family right now, in case they jump back ......"
Zhu Tingfang immediately smiled. The second brother, who has always been a child, can also think about things a little seriously, which is really rare - even if people actually think very superficially, it doesn't matter, it's better to be willing to use your brain than not to use your brain.
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. Besides, it is only to ask about the first evil, not only to punish the first evil. Seeing that Zhu Er breathed a sigh of relief, Zhu Tingfang further inquired about what Zhu Er knew. When he learned that Xian Yunhe had beaten the eldest prince, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then sighed: "Seeing that this person dared to swing a knife at Xu Cheng, I felt that he was bold, but I didn't expect to underestimate him." ”
"Big brother, I just met Xian Yunhe today, not for him to intercede, it's just to ......" Zhu Er was entangled for a moment, thinking about it, he still salivated and said, "It's his uncle Lao Xianyu who was hunted down because of his relationship before, and I happen to be together." This boss has a bit of a secret, and it happens to be related to what my brother-in-law asked me to investigate, so I hope to be lightly haired and fall into Xian Yunhe. ”
"It's probably inevitable, don't expect too much." Zhu Tingfang smiled, and then said calmly, "As for what you said Zhang Shou entrusted you to do...... Hehe, he recommended me to clean up this mess, but I also suggested that the emperor let him come and see for himself the mess he made. He was right behind, with Du Heng from the Rui Cavalry Battalion. In addition......"
Seeing that Zhu Er's face was stunned, he said with a smile: "Yingying has the connivance of her grandmother and mother, even if her father is like thunder, she will probably follow her secretly." Instead of begging me, you should go back and try at both of them. ”
"Are they both coming?" Zhu Er confirmed it again, and when he saw that his eldest brother bowed slightly, he couldn't help but pat his forehead, and then he was overjoyed, "Yingying is going around in the palace, and my brother-in-law is even more interested in the left and right, it's good that they are here!" Big brother, let's not talk about them first, you must be the master for me, I was forced by Xu Cheng and those profiteers to jump into the sea to survive! ”
When Zhu Er was incoherent, Zhang Shou was also deeply suffering from the pain of his thighs being worn while riding a horse. He pushed Zhu Tingfang into the water, but he didn't expect that after the future eldest brother saw the emperor, he directly pulled him into the water. The emperor pushed him out on the grounds that the branch of Banshan Hall sent another teacher, and Jiuzhang Hall had Lu Saburo to teach as a substitute, so he naturally had to make this trip.
When he was resting at this time, he was drinking water from a kettle, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Du Heng was walking towards him. He was not familiar with people, and when he was suspicious, he saw Du Heng smiling, and suddenly a cold light in his hand came towards him.
