Chapter 81: Killing Long Street
Both to others and to oneself
Just a moment later, there was a miserable howl in the Gongsheng group, some were hit by the war horses that couldn't dodge, and some were trampled under the feet of the war horses.
Even if the horse's hooves were trampling on a person, the knight on the horse still did not have the slightest intention of retreating, but continued to drive the horse forward and run over the man, and continued to force his way towards the denser part of the crowd.
The war horse under the crotch advanced strongly, and the waist knife in his hand did not stop for a moment, and the knife was never unsheathed, so the forbidden soldiers took the long knife with the sheath to smash the head and cover the face to both sides.
Whoever is listed before the war horse, smash
Whoever is within three steps of the war horse shall be smashed
Whoever dares to resist controls the horse with both legs, holds the sheath in his left hand, and draws the sword in his right hand.
The carnival-like long street of joy first turned into a battlefield and then into a slaughterhouse.
I haven't seen blood since I was transferred to the Divine Capital, but the essence of this 10,000-horse forbidden army is the lives of people on the northeast border, and the wolf heart that kills one by one is stimulated by this human head and dripping blood, and the murderous nature that can't be erased in the bones suddenly erupts irrepressibly.
Originally, the order was to kill people only if they resisted, but later, the instinctive raising of their hands and heads to block would also attract thunderbolts.
Once the murderous knife is drawn, it will never be taken back until the blood is full
The center of the world, the most lively long street in the north city of Shendu, in front of thousands of people in Luoyang
The Forbidden Army performed a perfect slaughter with their own swords, the heads and blood of the tributes.
When the forbidden army on all sides finally surrounded the core of the Gongsheng group, there were hundreds of human heads scattered in front of and behind their horses and under the hooves of the war horses, and the entire long street was drenched in blood.
In the middle of the long street, all that remained were Gongsheng who had already squatted on the ground with their heads hugged, and did not dare to make the slightest move.
In the depths of spring, the sun shines high, shining on the heads of people who are dripping and rolling, and shining on the dripping blood...
When the killing sound completely stopped, Li Xingzhou raised his head from the deathly silence of the crowd and looked at the palace again.
Wu Zetian lived there
It turns out that this woman has more than just an atmosphere that people can't reach
It turns out that this woman is really not afraid of killing people at all
Looking at Jin Zongqing's familiar head at the edge of the long street, Li Xingzhou let out a long sigh, and it was actually far away in the silent long street.
The warm spring sun, the scattered heads, the dripping blood, the dead silence of the crowd.
Everything was so tightly coordinated, and as soon as the bloody killing on the long street ended, the Jingzhao Yamen had arrived.
The soap-clad red bearers have an iron ruler in one hand, an iron chain dedicated to holding people in the other, and behind them is a row of standing cages with no end in sight.
Because there were too many station cages, the tolerances of the Jingzhao Yamen were a little insufficient, and they had to levy some conscripts.
The forbidden army, who had completed the killing, rode their horses and slowly retreated from the center of the long street in all directions, and the soap suit began to enter the clearing field.
Gong Sheng, who squatted on the ground with his head in his hand and didn't dare to make the slightest movement, was picked up like a pinch, and then pushed into the station cage.
As soon as the empty station cage was loaded, it was immediately pushed in the direction of the Gongyuan, and the next one was handed over. You come and I come, and the whole process is orderly.
Once stuffed into the station cage, the head and arm can no longer rest, and the uncomfortable taste makes people shudder to think about it, even the strongest man can't stand it for a few days, let alone these weak scholars.
Looking at the murderous momentum just now, Shengsheng turned a hunt into a killing formation, stumped the court and wanted to stand to die these tributes?
That's nearly 200 young people
Look at the scattered human heads on the ground and the blood that has turned black after being trampled around, and then look at the station cages that you come and go, and you can't see the end at a glance.
Even in the late spring season, when the warm sun is shining, the viewers still can't help but feel chills.
The station cage was full, and the soapy clothes and red belly guards escorted them to the tribute courtyard. The people of Yizhuang, who had just followed the tolerances, immediately entered and began to collect the heads, corpses, and the corpses that had been crushed and crushed by the horses.
Then there is the entry of the Shendu Fire Dragon Team to take water nearby to rinse the bloodstains.
At this time, the brigade had already escorted the standing cage to the tribute courtyard, and the forbidden army had also collected the bloody knives and returned to the camp, and the crowd of people watching the excitement on the street began to be lively again.
Buckets of well water were splashed down, and the dull blood began to fade slowly, and finally came to naught.
The same warm spring sunshine, the long street that is clean again, and the crowd that is gradually lively.
It was as if the killing had never happened
Li Xingzhou watched the whole process quietly, and it was not until the fire dragon team finished cleaning and retreated that he walked up the long street, step by step through the bloody killing field just now and walked back to the Gongyuan.
Seeing that some of the lively people dispersed, and some of them were still unsatisfied, they hugged and moved to the tribute courtyard.
Nearly two hundred station cages stretched out to cover the walls of the Gongyuan, and when I came from afar, I saw this scene from afar, which really had a strong visual impact.
After witnessing such an endless standing cage, is there still that Gongsheng in the world who dares to make trouble?
The last time the young people made such a big fuss, they didn't punish a single person, and reopened the scientific examination. This can be described as a favor.
This time, there were only two or three hundred tributes led by Cui Baiyi, but it was a thunderbolt of thunder. This can be described as overwhelming.
Enwei is just the simplest power trick, but Wu Zetian's use is really obedient to Shilin's rubbing, and even the new examination regulations have been established and fixed, which is really a good means
Li Xingzhou walked to the gate of the Tribute Courtyard, and the Tribute Students, who ran out of the Tribute Courtyard to see the excitement, saw him come back, and hurriedly turned around and went back to the Tribute Courtyard.
Although the results of the imperial list have come out, with Cui Baiyi's trouble, it is clear that all the tribute students who have finished reading the imperial list have not dispersed.
They waited for another final result, one from Miyagi.
How should the emperor list released by this subject be calculated?
Li Xingzhou walked into the Gongyuan Courtyard, and as soon as he bypassed the Zhaobi, he saw Su Wei.
Previously, Li Xing left on Monday, and Su Wei couldn't be lazy anymore, and he couldn't slip around, so he ran left and right, and Fei dry his tongue to appease the rest of Gong Shengbei and followed him on the street. The black footprints on the buttocks were still a servant rushing up to remind him.
When Su Wei patted off the black footprint on his buttocks, he couldn't help but blush again.
Hey, in front of these tribute students, he, the leader of the poetry world, has lost all his face, and I don't know how these people will learn from others about his embarrassment today after they disperse
As soon as the killing on the long street came out, the Gongsheng suddenly quieted down, and Su Wei also breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to go back to the official room, and still stayed in the courtyard outside.
Seeing Li Xingzhou coming in, Su Wei looked at him coldly, and it happened that Li Xingzhou's eyes were also looking over.
The four eyes looked at each other, and they were cold, and then the two of them turned their heads in unison, only looking at each other as nothing.
At this moment, I heard the sound of the hooves of the three or five horsemen outside the Gongyuan.
Not long after, a middle-aged eunuch holding a brocade box walked in under the protection of four forbidden soldiers.
Su Wei has seen a lot, and he is busy setting up incense cases.
The incense case was set up, and after the eunuch worshipped, he took out a Ming and yellow silk book from the brocade box, and all the tributes bowed, and the eunuch read out the edict of the Son of Heaven with a unique voice.
After listening to Li Xingzhou quietly, there are four contents of this edict of the Son of Heaven:
First, the reopened scientific examination is public and upright, and the selection of real talents for the country is very pleased. After the completion of the scientific examination, the people of the Gongyuan will be given ten days off. After the banquet is completed, there will be another reward.
Second, the new jinshi of the current department will go to the ministry tomorrow to accept the "customs test", and after the completion of the examination, he will return to the Ministry of Rites to learn the rites of meeting the Son of Heaven. Ten days later, the Holy Queen will give a banquet to the new Jinshi of Jinke in the Chunmingyuan on the shore of the Luoshui River outside the city.
Third, in the banquet of Chunmingyuan, the two chief examiners and the newly added rank officials of the Tribute Academy attended this banquet together.
Fourth, regardless of whether the troublemakers today live or die, they are not allowed to go to school or conduct scientific examinations within three generations. The living live live for three thousand miles after standing in the cage, although they are amnesty by the imperial court, they cannot be pardoned, and they cannot return to their hometowns unless they are subject to the edict of the Son of Heaven.
As soon as this edict came out, the people's hearts were determined
Of course, the candidates who have won the middle school in this course have a big stone in their hearts, and they are happily looking forward to the Spring Summer Palace banquet that will cause a sensation in the Shendu ten days later.
Gongsheng, who was not taken, was miserable. But thinking about the last part of the edict of the Son of Heaven, and the endless standing cage outside the Tribute Courtyard, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of happiness in my heart.
There are "ten rebellious" crimes in "Li Lu", but these ten felonies with different names have two things in common, in addition to the extremely heavy punishment, there is also one that is not forgiven. The Son of Heaven set this clause for those tribute students in the cage outside the Gong Yuan, which clearly regarded their troubles today as the ten major sins of rebellion.
The other two are also cold to the bone. Three thousand miles long, what kind of good place can it be? You can't return to your hometown unless you are ordered by edict? After the Son of Heaven exiles him today, who knows when he will be able to remember these nearly 200 people again? As for the edict of recall? That's it, nine out of ten of these people are going to die of old age.
As for the prohibition of education and scientific examinations within three generations, this is even more ruthless.
The long stream of three thousand miles is only for individuals, but this is a sin and descendants, and it has cut off the roots of the reading of these Gongsheng families
If you think about it, although those people in the cage were lucky enough to save a life, they are really worse than dead.
Maybe it's better to die on the long street in front
As soon as this edict of the Son of Heaven comes out, the reopened scientific expedition will officially come to an end.
After listening to the edict, Li Xingzhou habitually took two steps to the official room in the back, and then reacted, now the Gongyuan really has nothing to do with him.
Seeing that the middle-aged eunuch did not have the slightest intention of calling him into the palace, Li Xing turned around and walked outside the tribute courtyard with a smile.
It's also time to go home. As for the back, let's wait for the banquet in the Spring Summer Palace ten days later.
Since the edict of the Son of Heaven just now has clearly stated that after the banquet, the people of the Tribute Academy will be rewarded, so he should not be missing as one of the main exams.
I just don't know what the Holy Queen will do with him.
Li Xing walked around and thought about it, and when he was about to walk to the gate of the Gongyuan, an official behind him rushed up panting. It is said that there are many candidates for the Jinshi Department who implore the Gongyuan to make the regulations of the poetry review public, and they will copy it and think about it carefully, so that they can fight again in the coming year.
"Then spread it on the wall outside the Tribute Courtyard, and then there is another way to tell the Sushe people to decide" Because of this incident, Li Xingzhou was in a much better mood when he walked out of the Tribute Courtyard, and he also had a clear smile on his face.
