Chapter 795: Ripe Melons (29)
Hebei Province, Mengzhou.
There was smoke and dust on the official road, and there were more than 100 people in a line of official errands, under the command of a scarlet-robed man and two green-robed directors.
They are the people of the Qiuguan Yamen, and they were ordered by Song Jing, the official of the Qiuguan Shangshu, to go to Mengzhou to track down Sima Shu's life experience, and cut down his family, the Mengzhou Sima family, which was once prominent in Daomen.
Secretly, there is another errand, that is, to get the antidote prescription of Sima Huang's concoction of strange poison into his hands and cure Li Chongjun, the king of Yixing.
"Huang Langzhong, the border of Mengzhou is ahead" A green-robed official stood in front and rode back.
"Hmm......" Huang Xuan, the governor of the Qiuguan Yamen, responded casually, his crotch galloped like the wind, the movement was violent, but his spirit was difficult to concentrate, he looked up at the sun, and waved his hand, "Go at full speed, find a Zhuangzi outside the city, change your outfit, and enter Mengzhou City before sunset."
"Yes," the officials replied loudly.
Huang Xuan's brows furrowed, as if he was frightened by the shouts of his subordinates.
He closed his eyes vigorously, tried to lift his spirits, swung his whip, smacked the horse's ass twice, and swept away.
He is an old qualified Quance party, when Song Jing was still an autumn official servant, he devoted himself to following, at that time, Quance was fledgling, Song Jing was sent for crime, went to the border Zhuozhou and Yunzhou to build roads, he once became the only representative of the Quance party in the Qiuguan Yamen.
To this day, the party members of Quan Ce are in the court, and there are many people in purple robes like carp crossing the river, especially in the law department, almost covering the sky with one hand.
The situation is so good, he, a small official, feels honored and excited, like his Shangguan, Qiu Guan Shangshu Song Jing, should stand firm and full of energy, how can he be distracted?
Xu Yes, I misunderstood him?
The subordinate officials found a thatched house in the countryside and changed clothes in shifts.
Huang Xuan was stumbling and changing his clothes while contemplating.
The reason why he didn't belong to his mind was because of the dark mistake, Song Jing privately instructed to find an antidote for Li Chongjun, and the reason was to grasp the initiative to resolve the crisis in the East Palace.
The reason given by Song Jing did not convince Huang Xuan, he instinctively resisted, in his eyes, Li Chongjun was not amiable, at the beginning, Wei and Wu Sansi took advantage of the marriage of the Tibetan nobleman, and joined forces to attack Xiangye, Li Chongjun, as a disciple of Xiangye, did not support him with every move and only a few words, like a traitor.
This is not just Huang Xuan's own thoughts, many middle-level scarlet robes and court officials who are powerful and party members are quite disgusted with Li Chongjun.
Let him, a hardcore Xiangye, be loyal and seek medical treatment for the enemies of the East Palace, which not only embarrassed him, but also made him feel humiliated.
So, before leaving, he asked to see Di Guangyuan, the secretary of Dali Temple, and told Song Jing's instructions and plates.
Di Guangyuan pondered for a long time, and did not give a conclusion, but promised to convey the matter to Xiangye, and if there was any abnormal news, he would be notified as soon as possible.
Huang Xuan changed his clothes, turned over and returned to the horse, looking back at the road he came, and did not see anyone chasing him.
"Woo ......" Huang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, but he was relieved, what he did was worthy of his heart, worthy of loyalty, he had done his best, and what happened in the future depends on the destiny of heaven.
"Scatter each of them, and go into the city in order, and stay in the appointed place, and do what is commanded"
Some of the officials were dressed as vegetable farmers and carrying burdens, some were dressed as hunters with bows and hunting knives in their hands, and some were woodcutters carrying large bundles of firewood.
Rushing forward, into the city.
The place where they stayed was pre-designed, just around Sima's house in Mengzhou, if there was no secret errand, they could rush in with open fire, take people to ask for guilt, and then end the errand.
At the time of the third watch, the crescent moon hung high, dogs barked from time to time, and on the empty long street, Huang Xuan personally led the people and horses out of the nest.
"Go to the gates on all sides...... You guys, block off the streets nearby...... A few of you, good at it, sneak in and take control of this mansion as fast as you can...... When it was done, the people outside were scattered into the donkey's barking...... Be careful to conceal your whereabouts, and don't rush to kill."
Everyone nodded their heads in response, and before they were about to act, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the street.
Huang Xuan and the others were shocked, those who were close to the entrance of the alley turned around and hid in the dark alley, and those who were farther away turned around on the spot and stood against the wall, hiding in the shadow of the wall.
"Driving...... "Fast" The other party didn't seem to see anyone, and left in a hurry, and someone found out that something was wrong, so he just turned his head and whipped up, speeding up and leaving, and didn't get off the horse to find out.
The horse team of dozens of people left in an instant.
"The local security is worrying, and in the middle of the night, there are bandits"
A subordinate with a broken mouth muttered two sentences, Huang Xuan frowned, sniffed, smelled the smell of blood in the air, his face changed greatly, and he shouted in a lost voice, "Not good"
He personally led everyone to rush into Sima's house, but only to see a mess, corpses all over the field, the courtyard was killed, all of them were servants and maids, clothes and bodies, all messy and pickled, thick black blood under the iron tree in the courtyard, a pool of blood, like Senluo hell, the death was extremely miserable and terrible.
In the main room, many men and women, dressed in splendid clothes and neat clothes, sat on the couch respectively.
It's just that their faces are already blue, their eyes are white, and they have a white silk wrapped around their necks, and they go to another world.
Obviously, they used something in exchange for a decent method of total corpse death.
"Bastard, bastard, but there is a bit of credit" Huang Xuan scolded twice in a mess, and yelled repeatedly, "Hurry, chase quickly, if you encounter obstacles, you will show your identity"
followed the direction where the bandits had fled, and pursued them until they reached thirty miles outside the city.
"The Law of Sighs"
Huang Xuan reined in the horse, his front hooves soared into the air, and made a sharp turn before he would avoid the black mass of things under the horse's hooves.
"Torches"
Huang Xuan shouted, and some of his subordinates rushed forward with torches.
Horizontally and vertically, the official road was full of corpses, all dressed in black clothes, and there were dozens of them.
The body was densely covered with feathered arrows, and on the road at the forefront, there were thistles and tripping ropes, which was obviously a well-arranged hunt.
The burning sound of the torches was fierce, and the distant screams of night owls could be heard not far away, and overnight, with an interval of only half an hour, two large-scale murders were witnessed, which made these law veterans feel panicked.
"Huh"
Huang Xuan smiled bitterly, bright and dark, the errand was nothing.
He didn't know who the group of people who died on the ground were, and he didn't know who killed them.
It turned out that he was just thinking too much about how to deal with the tangled of the antidote prescription.
