Chapter 26 Rectification of the Rulers

On that day, Zhao Yong stood in the Longtai High Pavilion, stretched out his arms, hugged the world and said: "The widow, not only to keep the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains left by the ancestors, but also to lay down a piece of his own country and pass it on to future generations." Wang clan, Mu Jian, are you willing to be loyal to the widow and work together with the widow to establish immortal merits? ”

Wang Clan and Mu Jian lifted their spirits and said in unison: "Your Majesty, we will swear to the death." ”

Zhao Yong looked at them in a daze, smiled loudly, and said, "If you die, you can't enjoy the mountains and rivers." You will give the widow a good life, and the deeds of the widow will be shared with you. Widowed, living in the palace all the year round, he doesn't know anything about the outside world. Be the eyes and ears of the widow, and see and hear for the widow. ”

Wang Clan and Mu Jian looked at each other and said, "No." ”

The vows of that day are less than three months after today. The king refused to go to court. When Sima Wangzu saw the king, he walked too far and couldn't bear to see him fall. Therefore, enter the palace to admonish. Zhao Yong's answer made Sima Wang, who felt that the once familiar monarch, had returned. Suddenly, Junshang's original intention remained unchanged, and he arched his hand and said, "Your Excellency, please remember what you said today." Wang, retire. ”

Zhao Yong saw that he had finished counting himself, and he wanted to retreat with his whole body, how could he cheapen him, and said with a calm face: "Wait a minute." ”

Sima Wangzu knew in his heart that his words and deeds had offended the king. Your Majesty, it is reasonable to punish him. Fortunately, he had already thought about the consequences before he spoke. Sima Wangzu straightened his spine, and there were three words engraved on his face that he would not give in. No matter how Zhao Yong punished him, he would never beg for mercy. Sima Wangzu said in his heart: "The eldest husband acts above board, how can he take care of the aftermath." ”

Zhao Yong, piercing his mind, said awe-inspiringly: "If you offend me, you want to leave, how can I cheap you." ”

Sima Wangzu took a breath, he was supposed to come, he finally came.

Zhao Yong, staring into his eyes, said, "Wang, have you thought about it?" ”

Sima Wang's clan didn't have enough self-confidence, and after looking at the king for less than three seconds, he automatically dodged, lowered his head and said: "Your lord, the wang clan, you are willing to be punished." ”

"What will you punish with a widow?" Zhao Yong watched the changes on his face, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly. Seeing that the Wang clan was not convinced, he skillfully handed over this problem to him to make his own decision. The fruit that is planted, whether it is sweet or sour, must be tasted for yourself.

When Sima Wangzu heard this, he didn't know what to do for a while.

Mu Jian saw that Jun's face was engraved with seriousness, but in fact, he was pretending to be a gesture, in order to scare the Wang clan. Who dared Sima Wang, accusing the king of not doing his job properly and forgetting the ambition in his chest. Mu Jian thought about it, and said something good for the Wang clan today, so that he could unite with the Wang clan and bully the king in the future. But Mu Jian had a voice in his heart telling him that he also wanted to see the appearance of the Wang clan. With his mind already decided, Mu Jian said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you will punish the Wang clan to eat fifty chickens and drink three jars of Zhao wine." ”

"Yes, the king punished me to eat fifty chickens and drink three jars of Zhao wine." Sima Wangzu said it in passing. Suddenly, he opened his little hand and calculated, and suddenly felt that he had fallen into the trap designed by Mu Jian. Sima Wangzu found out that he had been deceived, so he gave him a look and said, "Count you ruthless." ”

Mu Jian ignored the meaning of that look, and paused and said, "Your Majesty, what do you think of my punishment." ”

Zhao Yong, who understood the meaning of the words, nodded and said, "Okay, do what you want." ”

Sima Wang's face was embarrassed, fifty chickens, three jars of Zhao wine, how could he finish eating. Sima Wangzu said, "Your Majesty, you still beat me up." ”

"The widow has good wine and good meat to entertain you, and you are not happy." Zhao Yong, Shuluo said: "I want to eat the board in my heart." ”

"I was born to be a carnivore. Your Majesty, you want me to eat too much meat and drink three jars of Zhao wine. Sima Wangzu paused and stroked his stomach, "I'm afraid I'll break my stomach." ”

"You know it's going to break your stomach." Zhao Yong, teasing.

As soon as he heard the words wine and meat, Sima Wang had forgotten God. By the time he came to his senses, it was too late. He never expected that Mu Jian would dig a hole for him. He thought that instead of being broken in his stomach, it was better to come happily, and said with a pause: "Please punish you." ”

When Zhao Yong heard this, he glanced at him fixedly, and couldn't help but smile: "Who said that the widow wants to punish you." ”

"Your Majesty, you..." Sima Wangzu was stunned for a moment, it turned out that the monarch had made a joke with him, and he had misunderstood what the monarch meant.

"I want you to do something for me." Zhao Yong walked over and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "It's too stuffy in the palace, making it difficult for people to breathe." Wang, let's get out of the palace! ”

Sima Wangzu exclaimed: "Your Majesty, you are going to leave the palace again." ”

Zhao Yong told him with a firm gaze that it was imperative. Sima Wang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'll arrange it." ”

Zhao Yong waved his hand and said, "Call Captain Tu Du too." ”

Sima Wang, said, "No." ”

Zhao Yong and his entourage dressed up in disguise and slipped out of the palace. This time I went out of the palace, one is because I stayed in the palace for a long time and was depressed, so I went out for a walk and breathed the air outside; Second, he wants to see what the suburbs of Handan, the capital of his country, are like. Third, he wants to verify whether Tian Buru's words are true. Tu Yi was driving, so the task of guarding Zhao Jun's safety fell on him.

Several soldiers saw a noble carriage coming from afar, and seeing that they were dressed, they did not look like Handan, a soldier, swaggered forward, and said, "Brothers, go, take a look." The prey has been delivered to the door, and the money for today's wine is available. "Seeing that he is wearing clothes, he should be the largest official in this group.

When the others saw that the leader said that there was wine to drink, they all applauded.

The man cried out, "Stop me." ”

Several soldiers went up to surround the carriage. Tu Yi, seeing that the soldiers were blocking his way, scolded: "Get out of the way for me." Zhao Yong saw that the carriage had stopped, and there was a commotion in front of him, and asked, "Wangzu, what happened ahead." ”

Sima Wangzu said: "Your Majesty, don't be disturbed, it's just a soldier's investigation." ”

The leader turned to the crowd and said, "You guys, go and see who's in the car." ”

"You have to be presumptuous." Tu Yi held the sword in his hand and sent it forward.

"Yo yo, I'm presumptuous, what can you do." Several of the other soldiers laughed. If it weren't for Zhao Yong's repeated admonition to Tu Yi before leaving. The soldier in front of him spoke to him in such a tone that he didn't know how many times he had died.

Zhao Yong saw that Tu Yi was going to punish them, and a voice came from the car: "Tu Yi, don't come nonsense." ”

Tu Yi held back his anger, only to hear the crisp sound of his fingers. Seeing that he didn't dare to move himself, the soldier walked past Tu Yi with great might. Facing the people in the car, he asked, "Where are you from?" ”

Mu Jian took a step forward and said with a smile: "We are merchants of the Song Kingdom. ”

"You Song Kingdom are rich enough, and the carriages are so luxurious." The soldier, his lips curled into a cunning arc, and said, "Who is sitting in the car, what are you doing in Handan?" ”

"It's my son-in-law." Mu Jian continued: "Come to Handan to do business. ”

"You kid is quite interesting, not like the big guy just now, who doesn't understand the rules. Do you know? I'm not happy, so I can arrest you all. Seeing that the pedestrian did not understand the meaning of his words, the soldier said directly: "Come to Handan to do business, do you know the rules?" ”

How did Mu Jian know that there were rules for doing business, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

When the soldier heard this, he was very troubled, and when the ordinary businessman heard what he said, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and the money continued. How did I meet a person who doesn't know etiquette and rules today? Perhaps, for the sake of Mu Jian's youth, the soldier was patient, pointed ahead, and said, "See! If you don't understand the rules, that's how it ends. ”

Mu Jian followed his gesture and looked, only to see a father and daughter in front of him being escorted and tied up by four soldiers. My father's face was scarred and his clothes were mutilated, presumably from a violent beating. The woman was dressed in shabby, her face was covered with dust, and she was a beauty when she looked closely.

"What did they do wrong?" Seeing this, Mu Jian felt angry in his heart.

The soldier snorted and said, "They are not wrong, what is wrong is that the girl is too beautiful." ”

It's also a mistake that girls are too beautiful. This is, where does this fallacy come from. Mu Jian's pupils widened, his fists were half clenched, and he said in a cold tone: "It's natural to be beautiful, how wrong is it." ”

"Tut-tut." Seeing that he was indignant, the soldier said indifferently: "My family has taken a fancy to this beauty, and it is her blessing." This old immortal obstructed him, and the brothers taught him a lesson. ”

"Presumptuous", Sima Wangzu rushed up, twisted the collar of the other party, and said angrily: "You are so lawless, where is the law of Zhao State." ”

"The Law." The soldier laughed wildly, pushed Mu Jian away, and sneered, "We are the law of Zhao State." ”

"If you oppress the good, you are not afraid of reaching Zhao Jun's ears." Mu Jian took a few steps back before he gained a firm foothold.

"Zhao Jun is enjoying happiness in the palace, how can he have time to control us." The soldier replied lazily, with a hideous and terrifying expression, and said intimidatingly: "Boy, you still worry about yourself!" Without money, prison will be waiting for you. ”

"How can it be?" Sima Wang's clan hated this kind of person the most in his life, so he rushed forward and punched the soldier in the face.

The soldier covered his beaten face, stepped aside, and shouted, "Brothers, take down this group of Diao people for me." ”

Tu Yi stepped forward, scolded loudly, and said, "Who dares." ”

When everyone saw Tu Yi's face, they didn't dare to step forward.

"You guys give it to me!" The soldier pushed the people around him and said, "You dare to beat the people in the official palace." ”

Several brave soldiers stepped forward, and Tu Yi instantly knocked them to the ground. I heard the screams of the soldiers falling to the ground. When the crowd around saw it, they cheered in unison, and they all said, "Good fight." ”

When the man saw this, he shouted, "It's the other way around, it's the other way around." You are going to rebel and fail. ”

Tu Yi lifted the soldier, threw him out, and said angrily: "How can you let such a shameless person live in the world." ”

The soldier got up tremblingly, took the wounded man with him, and as he fled, he threatened, "You wait for me." ”

Tu Yi approached Zhao Yongche's side and said, "Your Majesty, please punish the crime." ”

Zhao Yong lifted the curtain and said, "Tu Duwei, you did a good job." ”

When Tu Duwei saw Zhao Jun praising himself, he was speechless and couldn't say half a sentence. Mu Jian stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, when they leave, they will definitely gather people to retaliate, so we should leave quickly." ”

"I'm Zhao Jun, in my own territory, I'm afraid they won't succeed." Zhao Yong, got off the carriage, looked at Handan City, and said, "Widow, just here, see what they are capable of." ”

The woman helped her injured father to thank Tu Yi, if they hadn't come to their rescue, it would have been difficult for their father and daughter to see each other again. The old man said that they were from Shangdang County and came to Handan to seek refuge with relatives. Who knew that before he entered the city, he encountered such things. The old man never thought that Handan under Zhao Jun's rule would be so chaotic. Tu Yi, take out the money and give them to leave the land of right and wrong, so as not to run into this group of shameless people. The old man was penniless, took the belongings guiltily, thanked his benefactor, and led the little girl away.

Suddenly, there was dust flying in front of me, and the sound of horses' hooves began.

Tu Yi said coldly: "Your Majesty, here." ”

Zhao Yong nodded and said, "Tu Duwei, you can do it, you don't have to show mercy." ”

Tu Yi ordered the guards in plain clothes around him to protect Zhao Jun, and he stepped forward alone. The soldier, seeing Tu Yi and the others, said, "The two sons, this is the one who injured us. ”

The son in the soldier's mouth is not very old, one is twenty-three, the other is twenty-five, and the two are good-looking, but they are Sven scum. The boy in black said contemptuously: "Brother Yao, the people under your command are really useless, so many people can't help a reckless man." ”

Gongzi Yao held back his anger and said to him: "My subordinates are all waste, what about you?" ”

"Brother Yao, stand down and see how I, Li Hao, deal with this group of Diao people." Li Xuan led the soldiers behind him and walked towards Tu Yi and the others with great force.

The soldier snorted, "Childe, we won't help." ”

Gongzi Yao sneered: "This group of people dares to beat the people in the official mansion and don't leave, presumably someone in the Zhao Palace will support them." Li Hao wanted to be strong, so let him go. Why should we bother to join in the fun, it's not too late to see the situation. ”

Li Hao, leading the people behind him, shouted: "Come on, arrest this group of Diao people for me, the rebels... Kill"

"As a soldier, you should protect the territory and the people. He did such a shameless thing. Tu Yi stepped forward with his sword and shouted: "Bullying goodness, what kind of ability, a good man, he should make meritorious contributions to the country." ”

"When death is near, the mouth is still hard." Li Hao sneered in his heart and said, "I just don't have the ability." So, bully the good. You have the ability, and you are not bullied by me who has no ability. Tu Yi was angry in his chest, pulled out his long sword, put the scabbard on the side, and said coldly: "I don't want to kill, but you are what I want to kill." ”

Tu Yi said loudly: "Dare to go to the former, die." ”

Li Yu and his gang have always bullied the weak and feared the hard. Tu Yi and the others begged for mercy, and he naturally arrested them and punished them. Seeing me at this moment, I was a little hesitant in my heart. However, just now he boasted about Haikou in front of Gongziyao, if he didn't do it, he couldn't hold his face. At that moment, several soldiers escorted the father and daughter back. Seeing this, Li Hao pulled out his sharp blade and stabbed a sword into the old man's chest. Seeing this, the girl cried and shouted, "Father." ”

Tu Yi, furious, swung his sword and killed the evil slave who stepped forward, pointing his sword at Li Hao. Li Yu was so frightened by Tu Yi's aura that he trembled, and ordered everyone, "Kill him for me." Those soldiers were afraid of Tu Yi's might, and looked at each other, not daring to step forward alone.

Li Xuan, who killed a retreating soldier, scolded: "Cowardly fellow." ”

"Are you ready to die?" Tu Yi knocked down several evil slaves, and with one lunge, he crossed the long sword around his neck.

Li Xuan felt the coldness in his neck, and said unruly: "Strong man, you can't kill me." ”

Tu Yi said coldly: "Give me a reason not to kill you." ”

"Captain Zhao Yin is my uncle." Li Xuan trembled: "My father is Handan Ling Li Xiang. If you kill me, you will..."

Before Li Hao could finish his words, Tu Yi took his life and said: "Such a wicked person, a dog can survive in the world." Gongzi Yao saw Li Hao's blood stained on the spot, and panicked. By the time he came to his senses, the people gathered around him had already fled.

Tu Yi pointed his long sword at Gongzi Yao and said, "It's your turn." ”

Gongzi Yao, thinking about it and couldn't escape, said righteously: "Zhuangshi, please start faster, don't make me feel pain." ”

Tu Yi put away the long sword and said, "There is backbone." ”

Childe Yaoleng for a while and asked, "You don't kill me." ”

"I'm not going to kill you." Tu Yi turned around and commanded the guards to capture him, and said, "Send him to the government for investigation." ”

Zhao Yong sat in the car and took in what was happening outside. Tian Buli once wrote to him and said: Some wicked people, with the help of official coats, oppress the good and even kill them, treating human life as a mustard, not only are they not guilty, but they are meritorious. And goodness, in order to defend himself, injured the soldiers, was crowned with the people, and was sentenced to death. Where is the way of the world, where is the way of heaven, and where is the law of the Zhao Kingdom.

Zhao Yong saw the corpse lying on the ground, and said angrily: "I know that military discipline is corrupt, but I didn't expect it to be corrupted to such an extent, it's time to take action and rectify the rule of officials." ”
