Chapter 951: Zhang Liang's Method
As Li Ji said, Zhang Liang's five hundred righteous sons were not enough to see in front of the ten generals of the vanguard army, and after a stick of incense, the battlefield situation began to appear dramatic, that is, the ten generals of the vanguard army chased their goals on horseback, and cut down the opponents one by one, and the five hundred people on the Luoyang side were falling rapidly.
"Don't fight, we surrender, surrender!" Seeing that there were still double-digit manpower left, suddenly a young general fell off his horse and directly abandoned his weapon and shouted surrender.
The vanguard army did not rush to kill them all, but Zhang Liang at the head of the city was already pale and angry, watching these righteous sons who were obedient to him all day long being slaughtered one by one in front of him, which was tantamount to smashing a nail into his heart.
"Bai Fan, you are so vicious, today you slaughtered countless of my righteous sons, this revenge cannot be avenged, do you want Luoyang? Then take your lives to fill it. ”
With an order, Zhang Liang was about to mobilize the soldiers at the head of the city to resist to the death.
"Okay, you thief, you dare to go back on your word and be shameless?" Li Jiancheng scolded.
But the imagination is beautiful, the reality is slapped in the face in minutes, Zhang Liang gave an order with a sword, but none of the soldiers followed, but there was a crisp sound of weapons landing at the head of Luoyang City, which was a soldier The weapon in his hand was unstable and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, as if it was a dumpling, soon the sound of falling sound resounded throughout the city, and everyone in the city put down their weapons and knelt directly towards the army under the city, which was shocked by the ten killing gods of the vanguard army.
"There is more help for the righteous and less help for the unjust, Zhang Liang, just tie your hands and arrest it!" Li Jilang shouted.
Zhang Liang, who had almost fallen into madness, looked at the tragic battlefield below, as well as the 40,000 troops waiting in the distance, and then turned around, all the soldiers behind him were kneeling on the ground, and the only illusion in his heart was shattered, and finally his eyes were dark, and he fell to the ground on his back.
Li Ji led people forward to receive Luoyang, Li Jiancheng and Bai Fan had time to catch up, and learned that his son-in-law had leisure to take his daughter to enjoy the mountains and rivers together, and Li Jiancheng, who was already sixty years old, showed a warm envy.
"You kid is idle, today I saw the power of the new army of the Tang Dynasty, the old man has a sense of old age, this time I will go back to the second brother to resign, I also want to take your mother-in-law to see my Datang thousands of miles of rivers and mountains." Li Jiancheng said with emotion.
Bai Fan said with a smile: "I'm afraid father-in-law, it's hard for you to have a chance to be idle, this time His Majesty sent you here is obvious, after taking Zhang Liang, you need to temporarily sit in Luoyang, after all, this is the eastern capital, and the radiation of the four poles and eight wildernesses is not allowed to be watched by others, there must not be another Zhang Liang, before the newcomer comes up, I'm afraid my father-in-law needs to sit here in person." ”
Li Jiancheng looked stunned, suddenly came to his senses, and then shook his head and smiled bitterly.
With a faint worry in his smile, Li Jiancheng has been in charge of the Tang Dynasty's money bag for 20 years since he came out of the mountain again to serve as the first king of the world, and it can be said that he has been in charge of the Tang Dynasty's money bag for 20 years.
But Emperor Li Erdong has never moved his eldest brother, as Zhang Liang said before, the Li brothers have joined forces to balance the court for many years, and no one dares to make any changes.
Now because of a Luoyang, the Minister of Finance has been moved, King Jin? Is it a coincidence of personnel tension? Or did the emperor have a different idea because of his old age? Li Jiancheng, who has been deeply involved in the court for many years, has a more acute perception than his son-in-law Bai Fan in this regard, and Datang is afraid that it will be a new day.
A few days later, Zhang Liang was escorted to Chang'an Heavenly Prison to await the criminal department's review and conviction.
In prison, Emperor Li Er went to visit him alone to show the friendship of all monarchs and ministers.
"Since I took office, I have prided myself on being benevolent, and I never thought that one day I would personally send the former robe to death.
You have been born and died for the Tang Dynasty for many years, and it is okay for me to give up my reputation, but it is a pity that a generation of heroes cannot die well, have you ever regretted it? ”
Zhang Liang was speechless, and knelt on the ground at Li Er, and did not really repent until he saw the former lord at this moment.
"Your Majesty, the minister is wrong!" Zhang Liang cried loudly.
After a long time, Li Er spoke again: "What you have committed needs to be explained to the people of the world, I can't save your life." Before leaving, what do you have to wish? ”
Zhang Liang shook his head and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness and compassion, and I only wish my wife and children ......."
Li Er interrupted: "Your family was saved by Jian Zhi, everyone in Luoyang City knows it, Lantian Hou said that the world is so big, no one dares to embarrass them." ”
"In this way, the minister has no other worries, a misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, in this life, the minister owes His Majesty and the Hou Ye too much, and in the next life, he will repay the great favor by being a cow and a horse, please tell the Hou Ye that Zhang Liang can't stand him."
Seeing that a battlefield general in the past cried into a child in the dark prison, Li Er's heart was also mixed, and he slowly turned around with a long sigh, Datang became rich and strong, but since then it has also widened the road for the ministers to lose their footing, and it is also a blessing and a curse!
Seven days later, on a newly erected execution platform at the south gate of Chang'an City, Zhang Liang, the governor of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, conferred the head! When he was about to be sentenced to repentance, he shouted that Zhang Liang was guilty of death, and it was too late to repent! He was then beheaded in full view.
The people of Chang'an City sighed for a while, since Zhenguan, the country and the people, in addition to the war dead and wounded, the national criminal law basically rarely betrays the death penalty, at least a year there are not even ten death row prisoners, today there is a national prince was killed, it is really emotional.
In the palace, Emperor Li Er arranged for someone to deal with Zhang Liang's posthumous affairs, and then came to the palace of the harem.
The forty-eight-year-old Empress Changsun should have died young at the age of thirty-six, but because of Bai Fan, a little butterfly, she was able to get rid of death, not only survived, but also had an almost ageless body, a forty-eight-year-old person, and now she looks no different from a thirty-year-old.
"The husband doesn't need to worry too much, Zhang Liangfugui has no regrets in his life, who would have thought that wealth and wealth are moving, it is his own fault, not that we don't want to be full of righteousness." Empress Eldest Sun persuaded.
Who knew that Emperor Li Er shook his head and said: "I'm not upset because of Zhang Liang, it's because our baby girl only cares about dealing with Zhang Liang's rebellion that day, today I looked at the secret letter from my son again, and I found that she had been mixed up with a few boys of the Bai family, and she was also obsessed with the second child of the Bai family, and she was a lover inside and outside the words, what do you say?" ”
