Chapter 234: Escaping from the battle is shocking

Summoned the officials of Qingzhou and Shandong to go to the Han Mansion of Le'an to discuss matters.

Today, when the Ming Dynasty was founded, it has become a thing of the past for the vassal kings to sit on the heavy army and obey the orders of the state and county officials, but what happened yesterday evening has long been heard by the officials, and at this time, even if you don't want to go, you have to go. In order to hurry, the civil officials also had to ride horses, and the road was almost scattered, and when they arrived in Le'an County, a group of civil officials from the government government found that since the city gate was three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and they couldn't see a single person.

Dismounted and walked all the way to the Han Wangfu, a few officials who had not been in office in Qingzhou for a long time and had not yet seen the power of the Han King could still speak easily while walking. The prefect Ling Hua and Zhang Yue staggered half a step, but the two discussed in a low voice.

"Before, the Tiance guards were ordered to go to the grange of the Han Wangfu to collect money and grain, but they happened to meet the tenants to resist the tenants, and after a conflict, they arrested more than a dozen people and came back. In order to please the king of Han, the newly arrived Le'an Zhi County approved the flail for a month with a stroke of the pen. Originally, even if such a trivial matter was flailed, it was just a small flail and a flail at night, but who knew that the king of Han was probably determined to kill chickens and monkeys, and he didn't even let people go at night. Last evening, it happened that the Tiance guards had gradually withdrawn, and a group of people mixed into the city and robbed people. It was said that everyone in the gang had weapons and was quite skilled, and the king's family members were wounded more than a dozen people, and a housekeeper was killed on the spot. ”

This is the first-hand information that Zhang Yue sent someone to Jinyiwei this morning to inquire, but it is much more detailed than the official document. At this moment, Ling Hua was glad that he had such a well-informed subordinate, and on the other hand, he lamented that the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop—if such a thing happened, where could the Heavenly Ce Guards of the King of Han be withdrawn? At this time, those slaughtering armor soldiers standing all over the street, those eyes can make his legs and stomach cramp with a glance, this is the real Jingwei who fought in the beginning!

"When something like this happens, the government officials can't escape the blame, and the Shandong Metropolitan Division can't do well. That's right. Brother Zhang, where is your cousin? I heard that he hasn't been back to Qingzhou Mansion since he came to Le'an to announce the decree, so he should know what happened yesterday, right? ”

Zhang Yue, who wanted to answer, suddenly heard a call from behind, turned his head to look, but saw that it was a group of people from Shandong Dusi who had chased after him. The martial artists are all majestic and high-spirited, and Liu Zhong, who is in the lead, is even faster, and after stepping forward, he didn't pay attention to the civil officials, but nodded directly to Zhang Yue.

"The government is understaffed, and there are some things that you don't know about. Yesterday, more than 100 mud legs came in. After robbing people, they fled separately, and even the guards at the gate of Le'an City killed three of them! Although those prisoners with shackles are sentenced to minor crimes and heavy sentences, and if they don't sound good, they are lynching, but since they have killed people at this time, it will not be easy to handle! ”

Ling Hua had just received Zhang Yue's report, and the other officials originally only thought that King Han had let everyone walk into the city to get off the horse, how could they have thought that the matter would really be so serious? And put down these words, Liu Zhong didn't say much. took a few subordinate officials and walked forward quickly, and in a short time, a group of civil officials were left without a trace.

At this moment, Zhang Yue simply dragged the slightly chubby Ling Hua to speed up his pace, his body was strong, but he suffered those people behind. Because the gate they entered was the farthest gate from the Han Palace. It took more than half an hour to walk all the way, and everyone arrived at the gold-coated bronze nail gate. The gatehouse is full of cyan glazed tiles, and the tall lintel is hung with a plaque with the word "Duanli", which is the south gate of the Han Dynasty's mansion.

Compared to the military attachés who are still in high spirits. A few civil servants in their early thirties were already out of breath. At this time, Tian Cewei commanded Wang Bin to stride out of the door, only glanced at everyone conservingly and snorted coldly: "In broad daylight, there are mobs who openly harass the relatives and kill and injure the people in the palace, what a big boldness!" Since you belong to the civil and military forces, you should keep a place safe, and it is really embarrassing to make such a thing! The prince had already paid a clear visit to the court last night to participate in the matter. I don't want to see you anymore! Within ten days, if the murderer cannot be caught, all the government officials will wait to be dismissed from office! ”

As soon as the words fell, Wang Bin saw a group of people hurrying from the other side, raised his eyebrows, and his tone suddenly became more sarcastic: "Lord Zhang is late, everyone else is from Qingzhou, and the result is one step ahead of you!" When Lord Zhang wants to cut my Tiance guard. It's not a good thing to say to King Han. What Shandong is strong and strong, what Qingzhou is safe and quiet. What army is stationed in Le'an to harass the place...... What do you say that something like this is happening now? ”

Without waiting for Zhang Xuan to speak, he actually sneered and entered the palace without looking back, and then the two gold-coated bronze nails were slowly pushed shut, which actually made a group of civil and military officials who came specially to eat a closed door. Zhang Yue Linghua was okay, Liu Zhong and several other military attaches of the Shandong Metropolitan Division also knew the temper of the King of Han, and the remaining civil officials who still had backache and leg pain couldn't help but mutter. Among them, Zhang Xuan's face was the most ugly, after all, the last words were all directed at him.

In a fit of rage, he turned his head and glared fiercely at the civil and military officials, and shouted angrily: "You are all local parents, what kind of crime should you be guilty of such a mistake!" If you can't find out any reason within ten days, let alone King Han, even this official will participate in you! ”

Even a group of people who are good at the face are also holding back the fire in their hearts, and when they eat and drink Zhang Xuan at this time, they are all wonderful in their own way. Zhang Yue was furious in his heart, thinking that you Zhang Xuan had stayed in Le'an for more than ten days and had no news at all, and you had to cause your son to come to me for help, and he actually had the face to put on a show at this time! However, he was not good at talking on this occasion, so he had to suppress his anger, but unexpectedly, the south gate of the palace, which had just been tightly closed, opened again.

This time, it was a middle-aged eunuch who came out, he cleared the throat of the male duck, and then said unhurriedly: "His Royal Highness said that because the prince refused to see people, he would not be able to see you. The bloody incident yesterday evening took place at the North Gate, so please go around and take a good look. It seems that many of those weapons are the standard weapons of various guards, and everyone from the Yamen of the Dusi Department will go back and take a good inventory, this lost weapon or a thief is a big crime! His Royal Highness also said that before the matter is resolved, I am afraid that the Tiance guard will not be able to be eliminated for a while, and if Lord Zhang can't do this errand, why not go back to Beijing in person to return to the emperor? ”

"Thank you for reminding Your Royal Highness, this official will leave for Beijing to play the emperor now!"

After the middle-aged eunuch said this, the military attachés of the Dusi Yamen, who originally thought they were fine, were suddenly shocked, but Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally ordered to come down to deal with this matter, and at this time, he was too lazy to perfunctory these colleagues who were likely to be unlucky, so he took his entourage away without saying a word. When he was gone, a group of military attachés suddenly couldn't help but explode, sneering and mockingly, and there was an uproar.

"I thought he was better than Meng Xian, who knew that he would hide when he encountered a big event, what a thing!"

"Isn't it just that he's the younger brother of the British duke?"

"Leave early, you can't do things and occupy a place, at this time, you only know how to put on a face, why don't you know how to carry the burden!"

Zhang Yue knew that although Zhang Xuan was good at covering up, he had the kind of temperament that looked down on people in his bones, and when he saw him leaving, he didn't care about it, and as a result, he offended everyone, and he sneered in his heart. Only this time the government and the capital department yamen can be regarded as grasshoppers on a rope, and he had to step forward and say a few good words to Liu Zhong, who was pale. With such a thing that was inserted horizontally, a group of civil and military officers no longer distanced themselves as they did at the beginning, so they went to the north gate together.

This Han palace occupies almost half of Le'an County, and from the south gate to the north gate is equivalent to walking around the palace for half a circle. A group of people usually either ride horses or ride in cars, but now they can only rely on the two legs given by their parents, and this fatigue is gone, and even the military attaches are complaining. By the time everyone finally walked to the south gate, the prefect Ling Hua was already out of breath, and if it weren't for a Zhang Yue beside him, he was afraid that he would fall to the ground softly. The thought of going out of town and walking for a while left the city made him feel a cramp in his stomach.

However, when such a group of civil and military officers gathered in front of Guangzhi Gate, the north gate of the Han Palace, and saw the mottled blood stains on the wall on the ground, they all fell into a state of silence for a while. Because it was a freshly stained stain of blood from yesterday evening, and it had not rained until now, these dark red marks were extremely shocking, and the bloody footprints even stretched from this three-foot wide street to a very far place.

There was also a eunuch guarding the north gate, and when he saw Liu Zhong and Ling Hua, the chief officials of the two yamen, come forward to ask about the wounded and the dead, he immediately waved his hand, and a corpse with a knife wound that had long been cold was carried out, and when it came to the wounded, the eunuch refused to let go, until he sent someone in to ask for instructions, and only then did he allow Zhang Yue to go in and have a look.

When he walked out of the north gate again, Zhang Yuezi's face was pale, and when he went down the steps and saw that everyone was surrounded, he said in a deep voice: "Seven people were seriously injured, fourteen people were lightly injured, and three of them were seriously injured with knife wounds, so I am afraid that I will not be able to save them." ”

"What about the mob? Should there always be dead bodies or living mouths, right? ”

Zhang Yue shook his head slowly: "It is said that those people are well-trained, and the dead and wounded have been sent out of the city urgently. Because the Tiance guards had withdrawn before, the garrison in the city was empty, so it was exploited. The gang had made sufficient preparations in advance, the carriages transported the wounded, and the people fled in batches, except for the dozen or so tenants who had been arrested earlier, whose identities could be checked, and there was no clue about the others. ”

When they thought of the ten-day period, everyone gritted their silver teeth. However, it was useless to say this at this time, and the group of people could only walk out of the city by the same road, and then they met with the entourage guards who were turned away from the gate of Le'an City. Even if the two legs were filled with lead, no one cared about them, and on horseback, one after another orders and official documents were sent out in a hurry.
