Happy Chinese New Year!

I wish you peace and joy, and in the new year, all your wishes come true!

Chencang County is one of the western gateways of Chang'an, and the story of the Ming plank road secretly crossing Chencang took place here.

Because this is a military location, Qizhou Zhichong Mansion is located in Chencang County. Zhichong Duwei Lu Ning is a member of the fourth grade, and he is the emperor of the soil in this area.

Lu Ning is a veteran soldier, who once followed Li Junxian, the general of Wulian County, to participate in the war to defeat Dou Jiande and Liu Heimin, as well as the war to break the Eastern Turks.

He has a violent personality, is arrogant, arrogant, and has his own merits, and often does some acts of bullying men and women. Chen Cang County Ling is just a seven-rank petty official, and he can't afford to provoke Lu Ning at all. As a result, Lu Ning became more and more lawless.

Not long ago, Lu Ning fell in love with the daughter of the shopkeeper of a tailor shop in the county and forced others to make him a concubine.

At this time, Lu Ning was 41 years old, and his daughter was only 13 years old, and Lu Ning already had six wives and concubines, of course they didn't want to, so they hid their daughter in the countryside.

Lu Ning couldn't see the daughter of the family, so he was furious, and ordered his men to set fire to the tailor's shop at night.

The shopkeeper of the tailor shop couldn't afford to provoke Lu Ning, so he had to promise his daughter to Lu Ning. Unexpectedly, the daughter had a strong temperament and committed suicide by throwing herself into the water. The shopkeeper of the tailor shop couldn't bear it anymore, so he came to Liu Renliang to complain.

Liu Renliang immediately launched an investigation, who would have thought that Lu Ning would send someone to kill the husband and wife of the tailor shop and bury them.

The husband and wife who couldn't find the shopkeeper of the tailor's shop, there was no human and material evidence, and Liu Renliang's investigation had no results, and he watched Lu Ning get away with it.

The afternoon before yesterday, Lu Ning came back from a hunting trip, and ran rampant through the streets with a team of horses, and an old woman with a child could not dodge, and was about to be trampled under the horse's hooves.

At this moment, Liu Renliang, who was patrolling the streets and passing by here, stepped forward and saved the old man and the child, but even so, the old woman fell and was injured.

Lu Ning's horse was frightened, and the man stood up, almost throwing him off his horse. Lu Ning was furious, and whipped Liu Renliang on the head with a whip, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on Liu Renliang's forehead.

Liu Renliang was furious, pounced on Lu Ning and pulled Lu Ning off the horse, and the two scuffled together.

Lu Ning took a dozen guards with him and stepped forward to help Lu Ning. Liu Renliang's subordinates were even larger, with more than 30 people, and they went up and beat them up and subdued Lu Ning and the others.

Liu Renliang is the lieutenant of Chencang County, equivalent to the current county public security chief and minister of people's armed forces, and he immediately made a decision to put Lu Ning and others in prison.

Lu Ning went to prison and kept shouting and insulting, threatening Liu Renliang and others, and the soldiers were very scared, fearing his retaliation.

Liu Renliang was furious and ordered a big punishment to serve, and the soldiers hated Lu Ning very much, and they killed him directly.

The Chencang County Order had no choice but to report to the Prefecture Assassin Mansion. Liu Renliang was unwilling to implicate the soldiers, and one of them took responsibility, saying that Lu Ning was killed by him alone, so he was escorted to Qizhou City and imprisoned.

Seeing this situation, Baihu sent people back to Chang'an to report to the prince, and on the other hand, he and the officials of the military department rushed to Qizhou City.

Qizhou City.

Qizhou Sima Gao Yaoting was Lu Ning's sworn brother, and when he heard that Lu Ning was beaten to death by Liu Renliang, he was very angry, and he personally led people to escort Liu Renliang to Qizhou City.

Along the way, Gao Yaoting ordered his subordinates to abuse Liu Renliang in every way, and after arriving in Qizhou City, Liu Renliang was already dying.

That night, Gao Yaoting discussed with his cronies, thinking that Liu Renliang's case might be taken over by the Criminal Department, after all, he killed the Imperial Court Zheng Sipin's Zhichong Duwei.

However, once the case reaches the Criminal Department, depending on the circumstances of the case, Liu Renliang may not be sentenced to death.

So, Gao Yaoting decided to end Liu Renliang's life tonight.

In the evening, Qizhou Prison.

In the dark and damp cell, Liu Renliang was wearing heavy shackles and leaning against the cold wall, and the pain all over his body made him miserable.

At this moment, the iron chain rattled on the door of the cell. The door opened, and Gao Yaoting walked in.

A jailer placed a Hu bed on the ground, and Gao Yaoting sat down in front of Liu Renliang. He said: "Liu Renliang, you are so bold that you dare to murder Shangguan. ”

Liu Renliang said: "Lu Ning should die. ”

Gao Yaoting picked up the whip and slapped Liu Renliang on the head, scolding while beating: "Dog thing, Lu Ning is my righteous brother, he has made many war exploits, he did not die on the battlefield, but died in the hands of you, a dog thing." ”

Liu Renliang said: "Lu Ning should have died a long time ago because he had made military exploits, was arrogant and domineering, bullied the good, and killed people. ”

Gao Yaoting scolded: "You dog, Lao Tzu must let you pay for my brother's life." ”

Liu Renliang said: "You have no right to deal with me, you have your own judgment on the merits." When I got to the Criminal Department, I naturally made a fair conclusion. ”

"Hehe, go dream, tonight is your time of death. I also think of the Criminal Department, which is so beautiful to you.

I'll tell you the truth, you're going to break out of prison tonight and you'll be killed. Hahahaha. Gao Yaoting said with a cruel smile.

Liu Renliang felt cold in his heart, knowing that he was dead. He said no more, lest he should be humiliated more, and shut his eyes until he died.

The east gate of Qizhou City.

The night was falling, and everything was silent. With the intermittent murmur of the autumn insects, the officers and soldiers defending the city were drowsy.

At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and a group of officers and soldiers with torches came to the city gate, shouting loudly below: "The military department is on an errand, open the city gate quickly!"

The city of the Tang Dynasty generally implemented a curfew system, and under normal circumstances, the city gates could not be opened at night. For urgent official business, they also have a way.

The officers and soldiers defending the city hung a basket from above, and the officers of the military department put the official document in it along with their own waist cards.

Soon the gates of the city were opened.

The people who came were Baihu and others. As soon as he entered the city gate, the white tiger asked eagerly, "Where is the prison, hurry up and show us the way." ”

At midnight, Gao Yaoting and others appeared in front of the prison gate.

The door opened, and the warden said to Gao Yaoting, "My lord, everything has been arranged. Immediately, he took Gao Yaoting and the others in.

Gao Yaoting came to the cell where Liu Renliang was being held, kicked Liu Renliang, and scolded: "Dog, grandpa will send you on your way now." ”

He said to his subordinates: "Remove his chains, drag him and the two death row prisoners next door into the courtyard, shout 'Someone escapes,' and shoot them immediately." ”

"Yes, sir." Several jailers stepped forward and dragged the half-dead Liu Renliang and walked outside.

Behind them, a group of jailers picked up bows and arrows, and just waited for Liu Renliang and the others to arrive in the courtyard before shooting them. 8)
