Chapter 572: Asking for Guilt
Following his order, Wu Sheng's dozen henchmen were immediately assassinated by the halberds around them, and blood splattered on the spot.
Wu Sheng was the only one left at the scene, seeing that his subordinates who had just been alive were already lying here at the moment, Wu Sheng couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and said tremblingly: "General Su Su, let me go, please let you go, as long as you release the villain, these, these gold and silver are all yours!" ”
"Huh." Su Muzhi smiled, didn't pay attention to what he said at all, and asked directly, "What about the Imperial Jade Seal?" ”
He didn't bother to ask Wu Sheng how the Imperial Jade Seal fell into his hands.
When Wu Sheng heard this, he immediately said in a panic: "Yes, yes, yes, there is also the imperial jade seal, as long as the general is willing to let go of the villain, these are the general's!" ”
"Bring it." Su Muzhi stretched out his hand directly.
"So, is the general willing to let the villain go?" Wu Sheng asked nervously.
Su Muzhi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "Ben Shuai will say it again one last time, hand over the imperial jade seal!" ”
Wu Sheng's throat slid and swallowed his saliva again, Su Muzhi didn't say to let him go, where did he dare to hand over the jade seal.
Seeing this, Su Muzhi's face sank, and he shook his head towards the general.
The latter understood, immediately stepped forward, knocked Wu Sheng to the ground with three punches and two kicks, and then searched his body himself.
But after a while, the general shook his head slightly at Su Muzhi.
Kindness? No? Seeing this, Su Muzhi immediately frowned, and then shouted at Wu Sheng, who was lying on the ground wailing, and asked, "Say!" Where are you hiding the jade seal!? ”
"As long as the general lets the villain live, the jade seal and jade seal will be presented with both hands" Wu Sheng said intermittently, the importance of the imperial jade seal, no matter how stupid he is, he can understand how it is possible to carry it with him.
Hearing this, Su Muzhi was laughed at angrily, he nodded, and said, "It seems that if you don't suffer a little, you won't be able to say it." Get him out of here! ”
After the successful capture of Wu Sheng, the rebellion was completely quelled, and then Su Muzhi began to torture Wu Sheng.
On this day, the partial report that was responsible for personally interrogating Wu Sheng, Su Muzhi asked in a condensed voice, "Haven't opened your mouth yet?" ”
"This guy has a hard bone, and he won't open his mouth all the time." The general bowed his head and said.
Su Muzhi's brows furrowed, the imperial jade seal, the stakes are very important, he pondered for a moment, and then immediately said: "Forget it, don't kill him, send someone to escort him back to the capital and hand him over to the Dark Guard Mansion." ”
Marching to fight and arranging troops, Su Muzhi is absolutely no problem, but if it is said that torture is used to extract confessions, it is undoubtedly the best thing in the Dark Guard Mansion!
Here, the rebellion in Yunzhou was put down, and the news quickly spread to the capital.
And Su Muzhi's wanton massacre of innocent people in Yunzhou naturally reached Lu Chen's ears, and the latter was quite angry after hearing it! The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, many people also stood up and impeached Su Muzhi on the spot.
Wang Song, the head of the household, was the one who reacted the most violently, he stood below and said in an excited tone: "King! After General Su put down the rebellion, he didn't want to comfort the people, but killed innocents indiscriminately! So that Yunzhou is almost empty! Our country has been fighting for many years, and the population has already decreased sharply, especially in Yandi, and the counties are even more sparsely populated, and now General Su's behavior will not only make our Feng army be criticized by the people of the world, but also an unforgivable crime in terms of the people's livelihood of the country! The king must be held accountable for such butcher behavior! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, many ministers immediately stood up and seconded them.
Seeing this, Lu Chen took a deep breath, in fact, from the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to favor Su Muzhi, but in this situation, it was not only to block the mouths of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee, but also to block the mouths of the people of the world.
In the end, as a king, he had no choice but to say: "Immediately pass on the edict of this king and summon Su Muzhi back to the capital!" ”
His royal decree soon reached Yunzhou, and after Su Muzhi received the royal edict, he did not dare to delay, and immediately prepared to leave for the capital.
Half a month later, he returned to Fengzhou alone, and at the same time, Wu Sheng was also handed over to the Dark Guard Mansion, because it was about the Imperial Jade Seal, after the Dark Guard Mansion received Wu Sheng, Liang Xiao did not dare to be careless, but personally interrogated him inhumanely.
On this day, the wind country is early.
After the ministers knelt down, Su Muzhi stood on the left train, Lu Chen looked at him coldly, and asked straight to the point: "Su Muzhi, since the rebellion has been quelled, why did you order to kill so many innocent people!?" ”
Su Muzhi lowered his head slightly, swallowed his saliva, and replied cautiously: "Back to the king, although Yunzhou was recovered by our army at that time, many mobs were mixed into the people, and Weichen couldn't distinguish it. ”
"That's not enough to cover your fault!" Lu Chen said in a shocking voice: "Listen to the order!" Immediately demote Su Muzhi to a civilian! Deprive him of all official titles! ”
Yes!? I didn't expect the king to punish Su Muzhi so severely, and all the ministers were a little dumbfounded when they heard this, and even Wang Song, who tried his best to impeach Su Muzhi, was stunned.
Su Muzhi knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and said in a trembling voice: "Minister, obey the king's order." ”
Lu Chen didn't say anything more, he seemed to be in a bad mood, and after the royal order was issued, he also waved his hand on the spot.
And after the next dynasty, Su Muzhi returned to his mansion in despair.
His mansion, of course, is in Fengzhou, and it is one of the few generals' mansions in the capital, and anyone who can build a general's mansion in the capital must have the rank of general!
Soon after he returned, his friend Sima Wen came to visit.
At this time, Su Muzhi was in a bad mood, even if Sima Wen didn't come to him, he would also go to the latter to drink, and after seeing Sima Wen, he couldn't help but sigh while pulling the latter into the table.
Seeing him like this, Sima Wen was immediately happy.
Seeing him laughing, Su Muzhi immediately became a little unhappy, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Sima, it's all this time, are you still in the mood to make fun of me?" ”
"Huh?" Sima Wen waved his hand, still with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Brother Su, in fact, this time is not a bad thing. ”
"What?" Su Muzhi almost wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.
Sima Wen explained: "First, the matter of Yunzhou, you have indeed gone too far, and there are many ministers in the court who have impeached you in front of the king!" Second, as the king, in order to block the mouths of the people, there is no way but to ask you for the blame! ”
As he spoke, he looked up again and continued to smile: "Besides, isn't this General's Mansion still there?" ”
