After Yuan Shu finished roaring, he pulled out the ring head knife in an instant, and the cold light flashed, and the guards fell down in disbelief with their necks covered, unable to even shout, and blood was splashed everywhere. And the private soldiers of the Yuan family behind him got Yuan Shu's order, and several of them suddenly stepped forward and drew their swords one after another, quickly ending the lives of the remaining guards.

Then Yuan Shu ordered people to rush open the gate, and more than two hundred private soldiers rushed into Tang Zhou's mansion together with Yuan Shu. The crowd outside shouted in horror.

"Murder!!"

Yuan Shu didn't face the panic of the people unexpectedly, he didn't care what happened outside, he just had to catch Tang Zhou.

When he saw the people in the house, he did not stay behind, and when he saw one of them, he rushed up and slashed him to death with a knife. Ordered to the private soldiers of the Yuan family behind him: "Kill me, except for Tang Zhou, no one else will be left." ”

In a blink of an eye, in addition to the ten private soldiers who stayed behind to protect Yuan Shu, the other Yuan family's private soldiers formed a team of three or five people and rushed towards the depths of the Tang Mansion. Among them, several Tang Mansion subordinates wanted to escape from the front door, and ran to Yuan Shu and them in a panic, Yuan Shu immediately went up and kicked him down, stabbed him with a knife in his backhand and killed him, so Yuan Shu easily killed several Tang Mansion subordinates.

The private soldiers of the Yuan family shouted and rushed inside to kill wantonly, killing the unprepared people in the house and killing them in blood, and for a time there were corpses everywhere, and there were killed people and soldiers who were chasing and killing others.

Yuan Shu grabbed a little guy with a panicked face and slashed him in the neck.

"Where is Tang Zhou? If you don't say it, die! ”

"I say! I say! At...... In the back wing...... He was the one in the black satin robe. ”

"Well, that's good."

Yuan Shu wiped his neck with a horizontal knife, threw him to the ground, turned back to the private soldier behind him and said, "Keep up!" Go find Tang Zhou! ”

At this time, there were also hundreds of Taiping Dao believers stationed in the Tang Zhou Mansion, but they were rushed by the Yuan family's private soldiers, and the weapons and manpower of the Taiping Dao believers were not as good as the Yuan family's private soldiers, so after some rushing and killing, when Yuan Shu led people to march inside, they did not encounter any major resistance.

Yuan Shu went all the way and killed all the way, met five or six fish who slipped through the net, and finally rushed to the innermost wing, and the innermost part of the house was already besieged at this time.

The more than 300 soldiers of the Yuan clan in Luoyang were originally strictly trained, and they really had a hand in fighting, and their combat effectiveness was not just for fun. Every private soldier in this group has been on the real battlefield, and some of them are even the elite of the army, and they all have several lives on their hands.

Under the assault, Yuan Shu was very satisfied with such a quick rush to here, feeling that he had a good way of leading the troops, and he seemed to have the talent to become a famous general. At this time, Yuan Shu saw a man in Confucian clothes who was guarded among the sect, and he knew that this was the target of his operation - Tang Zhou. After confirming that Tang Zhou was still there, Yuan Shu had nothing to worry about anymore and ordered all his private soldiers to step up their attacks.

"Capture the anti-thief Ma Yuanyi alive! Ask for a reward from the Imperial Court!! ”

Yuan Shu shouted at the right time, which boosted morale.

Under the encouragement of Yuan Shu, all the private soldiers burst out with their strongest attacks, and under the brave fighting, the defense line of the sect members finally collapsed, and Tang Zhou had to personally wield the ring head knife to fight against the Yuan private soldiers.

Tang Zhou is just sharp-tongued, good at persuading others to join the Taiping Dao, and his martial arts are not strong at all, and he has no advantage in having fewer enemies and more enemies, and he has several more cuts on his body after a few fights.

In the end, the Taiping Dao believers around Tang Zhou were all cut down to the ground by the private soldiers, and their blood soaked almost the entire chamber. After only Tang Zhouren was left, seven or eight private soldiers of the Yuan family immediately pounced on him and suppressed him to death, and then tied it with rope again and again, almost tying it into a zongzi.

The goal of capturing Ma Yuanyi alive was successfully achieved, and Yuan Shu didn't have time to be happy, when he heard a private soldier behind him come and say that someone from the government was coming, it seemed that someone had reported to the government that there was a weapon fight in the Tang Mansion and brought someone over to arrest the bandits.

When Yuan Shu heard this, he first asked people to take care of Tang Zhou, and then he himself walked out, and when he went out, he saw the soldiers and horses of the lieutenant's mansion confronting his own private soldiers.

When the other party saw that it was Yuan Shu, he was also stunned, and asked him: "I've seen Captain Yuan, I heard a report that someone killed someone on the street here, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be Captain Yuan here." ”

Yuan Shu was in the position of captain of Changshui at this time, and he was from the Yuan family, so he was very respectful to everyone in the lieutenant's mansion.

"I was ordered by my father, Lord Sikong, to come here to arrest the important criminals of the imperial court." Yuan Shu said, but he didn't directly say Tang Zhou's identity, and he didn't want to be exposed too early before he got Tang Zhou's confession.

When the officers and soldiers heard this, they did not suspect anything else, and besides, this was not the residence of any official, so they asked Yuan Shu instead, "Do you need our help?" ”

"No, we've got someone." Yuan Shu waved his hand and rejected them.

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the Lieutenant's Mansion knew that Yuan Shu didn't want them to stay here, so they said some polite words and left.

Yuan Shu didn't keep it, and he was now eager to get a confession from Tang Zhou that Taiping Dao was planning to rebel. When Yuan Shu entered Tang Zhou's mansion again, the Tang Zhou he saw was very different from the beginning, Yuan Shu had told his private soldiers before that he was going to arrest the thieves, so after Yuan Shu went out, the Yuan family's private soldiers began to torture Tang Zhou and asked him to tell the Taiping Dao plan to rebel.

Knowing that Tang Zhou had not confessed yet, Yuan Shu asked the private soldiers to continue, and two private soldiers next to him picked up thick whips, raised them under Tang Zhou's frightened gaze, and whipped them hard. The sound of cracking the air mixed with the sound of the leather whip on the flesh, combined with Tang Zhou's screams like killing pigs, played a tragic purgatory concerto.

Tang Zhou was just an ordinary person, he was tortured by punches and kicks just now, and he was whipped again, and soon he couldn't hold it anymore and fainted, and the private soldiers asked Yuan Shu for instructions on what to do.

"Douse it with salt water."

Yuan Shu said four words, and soon, Tang Zhou woke up with a scream like killing a pig. He asked the private soldier to stop first, walked up to Tang Zhou, and said to him: "If you don't honestly explain your rebellion, I will make you feel that death is a kind of happiness!"

Tang Zhou couldn't hold it anymore at this time, he was not a strong-willed person, he was only very trusted by Zhang Jiao to be in charge of the key point of Luoyang, but now, he felt that he could only let his master down. With all his might, he said tremblingly: "I say, I say it all!" “

"Be louder, I can't hear you"

After making up his mind, Tang Zhou's heart relaxed, and he told all the things he had hidden for several years in one breath.

"Zhang Jiao asked me to come to Luoyang...... Match...... Cooperate with Ma Yuanyi...... Contact the inner response in the palace, on March 5th, the inside and the outside should be united, attack the imperial city, kill the Son of Heaven, seize Luoyang, and then on the same day, Qing, Xu, You, Hebei, Jing, Yang, Yan, Henan eight prefectures, 36 parties, 400,000 people, rebelled ......"

"You said that the inner response in the contact palace, who should be the inner person, but the eunuch? What is the last name? What position to do? As soon as Yuan Shu heard that Taiping Dao still had an internal response in the palace, he naturally thought of pressing the identity of this internal response to the eunuchs, even if it was not, he had to pull them off the horse, and dealing with the eunuchs was the instinctive reaction of all the scholars at this time.

"It's Feng Zhen and Xu Feng, who agreed with me to forge an order on the night of March 4, put us in the palace, take advantage of the chaos, seize the imperial city, and kill the Son of Heaven." Since the biggest secret was revealed, Tang Zhou did not hide it at all, and also informed Yuan Shu of the identities of Feng Zhen and Xu Feng.

Yuan Shu asked people to record all this, and then held down Tang Zhou's hand to draw a handprint, leaving ordinary private soldiers to guard Tang Zhou here, and he quickly took the confession and rushed back to Yuan's house to return to Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng was overjoyed when he saw this confession, and then pretended to be panicked and rushed to the palace in a hurry, desperate to see Emperor Ling.

Emperor Ling was still having fun in the harem at this time, and when he heard the eunuch's report that Sikong Yuan Feng asked to see him, he was still a little impatient, but he knew that when he thought of Yuan Feng's identity, he couldn't see it, so he had no choice but to announce Yuan Feng's visit.

As a result, when he saw the confession presented by Yuan Feng, the impatience in his heart disappeared all at once, replaced by horror, and even a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

From time to time, there were rebellions in the Han Dynasty, but they were all small fights and could be extinguished quickly. And from Tang Zhou's confession, Emperor Ling found that Taiping Dao would be a rebellion in the eight states of the Han Dynasty at the same time, which could completely shake the foundation of his rule, and it was by no means comparable to the small fights in the past.

"Really?"

"Your Majesty, this is the confession that my son Yuan Shu got from the leader of Taiping Dao in Luoyang City, and it must not be false. Besides, it is better to believe that there is something than to believe that there is none! This is a big thing in rebellion! I'd rather kill a thousand wrong than let go of one! Please Your Majesty immediately order the blockade of Luoyang! Capture the Taiping Daoists, the Han world is going to be in danger! Yuan Feng replied, of course, he would not miss to tell Yuan Shu's credit.

It is true that a written confession is not enough to convict a crime, but when it comes to rebellion and imperial rule, no emperor will take it lightly, even if he kills a thousand by mistake, he cannot let one go.

Emperor Ling immediately made a decision, and immediately ordered the defenders in the city to close the gate of Luoyang, and ordered the Taiping Daoists to be searched and arrested, investigate the matter, and kill them on the spot in case of resistance. To thoroughly implement the principle that it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go, we must determine the truth of this matter.

As for Yuan Shu's contributions, Emperor Ling did not forget it, and directly promoted him to be the ruling Jinwu, in charge of the forbidden army in Luoyang City, and suddenly gained the status of an important minister of the imperial court. And because the original ruling Jinwu did not perceive the intention of Taiping Dao to rebel, he was directly ordered by Emperor Ling to be removed from his post to see if there was collusion with Taiping Dao.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers who came to inquire in Tang Zhou's mansion just now suddenly became Yuan Shu's subordinates, if they found out, I don't know if they would think that they should stay and help Yuan Shu just now.
