Chapter 43: Whoever gets the stolen goods
Give me a three-foot blade, and I can slaughter all the bald donkeys.
Cheng Huailiang stepped on the war horse, raised the horse lance, shook the reins, and the horse's hooves jumped up, directly kicking open the door of the mansion of General Xianzong.
"If there is resistance, there will be no mercy."
In the southern suburbs of Chang'an, there were two teams of soldiers from the patrol battalion, who surrounded General Xianzong's mansion without the two major pests in Chang'an.
The carriage was parked a little far away, very close to the soldiers of the patrol battalion, and a guard jumped down from the wheel, holding the seals of Princess Jinyang and Princess Qinghe, and met the captain of the patrol battalion.
"Cheng Huailiang was ordered by the emperor to investigate the case, and you and others must not come forward to intervene." The seal letter was handed over, "This is the seal letter of the two princesses." ”
The captain of the patrol battalion immediately clenched his fists, "Then I'll wait around to maintain order." ”
The guard nodded, withdrew the seal, and returned to the carriage.
In the General's Palace, General Hyeonjong's troops had already opened their posture, holding sticks, ready to fight.
Cheng Huailiang and Li Changsi entered on horseback, and after the horse lance in the hands of the two people each picked off a part, the group of people was stunned in an instant.
The Yulin guards of the Princess's Mansion were carefully selected by Li Junxian, and they were all the elites of the elite.
In less than a cup of tea, General Hyeonjong was captured alive and thrown to the ground like a rice dumpling.
"I'm General Hyeonjong, who are you? Dare to set up troops in the general's mansion? ”
The horse lance went straight down, Cheng Huailiang riveted enough strength, and heard a click, and General Xianzong's leg was directly broken by the horse lance.
General Hyeonjong, who screamed again and again, turned pale, and fainted instantly.
A soldier carried a bucket of water and splashed it directly on General Hyeonjong's face.
General Hyeonjong slowly woke up, wailing and cursing repeatedly.
"Little grandfather, a total of fifteen children have been rescued from the Xianzong General's Mansion." Speaking of this, the soldier's eyes instantly fell with sweat, "There is another one who didn't have time to be rescued and was ...... Someone put it in the steamer...... Steamed melons are ripe...... Little grandpa, this is a bunch of brutes! ”
"Send someone back to Chengjiazhuang and settle down." Cheng Huailiang felt a chill in his heart for no reason, this is a monk, this is a monk who has to cut down on food and give them incense money even if he can't eat enough and wear no warmth.
"Little grandfather......" Fu Heng also finished sending the children rescued from Huichang Temple at this time, and came to the door of General Xianzong, and when he heard the words of the soldiers, tears instantly welled up, "They are not as good as beasts." ”
At the same time, outside Chang'an City, the remaining eleven temples related to General Xianzong were on fire, and bursts of smoke rose one after another.
"Go and invite Lord Fei Junfei of Dali Temple, as well as Lord Zhou Huacong of Chang'an County." Cheng Huailiang hung the horse lance on the victory hook and summoned a soldier, "Tell the two adults, just say that the evidence is conclusive, Zuotun Wei Zhonglang asked Cheng Huailiang not to try the case in Dali Temple, just at the door of this Xianzong General's Mansion, give an explanation to the people of the world, and give the people of the world a justice." ”
Not long after the soldiers left, Cheng Feng and Fei Xingjian took the soldiers to escort this group of monks to the gate of General Xianzong's mansion, lined up, and knelt there.
"Little grandfather, destroy eleven temples, capture one hundred and eight monks, and kill thirty-five of the resisters on the spot." Speaking of this, Cheng Feng's eyes were red, "A total of more than 100 children were rescued and temporarily placed in Chengjiazhuang, the only regret is ...... Little grandfather, this group of pigs and dogs is not as good as something...... There are still disemboweling children in the pot......"
Fei Jun and Zhou Huacong, when they came to the gate of General Xianzong's mansion, there were already a sea of people around.
Twelve temples around Chang'an were destroyed, provoking a burst of dissatisfaction among the people, that is their faith, these people spontaneously came to General Xianzong's mansion, wanting General Xianzong to uphold justice, who knew that they were rotten in the periphery by the guards of the patrol battalion and Yulin Wei.
The people were furious, and on several occasions they almost clashed with the soldiers.
Zhou Huacong is the commander of Chang'an County, is the parent official of the people of Chang'an City, after seeing Zhou Huacong, thousands of people fell to the ground, shouting that General Xianzong was wronged, the temples of Chang'an City were wronged, and the monks of Chang'an City were wronged.
Zhou Huacong hurriedly helped up a few elders, "Old man, this official will deal with it impartially." Give you the justice you need. ”
Subsequently, Zhou Huacong found more than a dozen old men who had always been prestigious in the crowd, "How about you go in with this official to observe?" ”
More than a dozen old men, all of whom are prestigious people outside Chang'an City and in the major villages, it is natural for them to go in, and some people will believe the results they say.
"Uncle Fei, Uncle Zhou, are you here?" Cheng Huailiang stepped forward to greet him.
"The result? Is there substantial evidence? Zhou Huacong asked directly.
"There's a steamer in the yard, go in and see for yourself." Cheng Huailiang leaned his body against the wall, his face hideous.
Zhou Huacong and Fei Jun went in with the prestigious old men, and when they opened the steaming drawer, half of the old men had already fallen to the ground.
Wow!
One of the old men cried bitterly and looked at the doll in the steaming drawer, "Isn't this my grandson who has been missing for nearly half a year?" Brute......"
Half of the other old men began to vomit......
They felt as if their bodies had been hollowed out, and all along, what had supported them was faith, but now they felt like they were being hammered in the chest by something, as if even the will to support them to live was gone.
The old man who was crying bitterly, like crazy, crawled out of the mansion with a roll, looked at the bound General Xianzong, like a tiger pounced on food, and pounced on General Xianzong at once, and tore at General Xianzong.
Biting General Hyunjong's shoulder, blood was like a pillar. Yu Linwei didn't move anyone at first, this beast should be torn to pieces alive.
In the end, Li Changsi walked over and pulled away the crazy old man, the old man spit out a piece of flesh in his mouth, and half of his face was covered with blood, "Why?" Why do you kill my only grandson every year when you are so tightly clothed and fed to you? ”
For a moment, the old man's eyes were scattered, and he leaned his body against the corner stupidly, "Grandson...... Grandson ......"
The interrogation process was very simple, General Hyeonjong confessed, and the confession was very direct and straightforward.
But General Xianzong still looks like you can't kill me, "When the eighteen stick monks rescued me and His Majesty ascended the throne and gave me fame, he promised that in this life, there was no long knife to kill me, no poisonous wine and white silk to give death, and no rope to strangle me. Zhou Huacong, want to kill me? It's not that easy. ”
Zhou Huacong and Fei Jun looked at General Xianzong and were furious, such a murderer, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, does not need to be reported to the court for approval, Chang'an County Yahe Dali Temple has the right to cut first and then play.
But Lao Li's promise is equivalent to giving General Xianzong a gold medal for avoiding death, and it will really be even more difficult to kill General Xianzong.
