Chapter 113: Convicted
Jiang Sheng had to dream of riding in vain, realizing that his life was in danger, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 He blew out the lamp, wrapped his armor lightly under the covers, and hid behind the curtains.
I could only hear the faint sound of the tarpaulin being cut, and then I saw two figures entering, one with a knife and the other with a rope in his hand.
No need to ask, these two people kidnapped Jiang Sheng, of course they were Zhang Rang's fine work, they wanted to tie him up while Jiang Sheng was sleeping, and if they were discovered, they would simply cut him down. These two people are dead soldiers, and they don't care about the rules.
Sure enough, the man with the knife pinned the knife to the belt of his trousers at the back of his waist, and at the same time as the man with the rope, he struck and tied the armor in the quilt along with the quilt.
After the two of them were tied, they realized that something was wrong, and they hurriedly checked it with a fire, and only after a look did they know that they had been fooled, but it was too late, Jiang Sheng pulled out the knife on the back of the man's waist and immediately attacked.
The two hurriedly dodged, and Jiang Sheng swung his knife to slash, but it was difficult to work. Jiang Sheng was good at dagger skills before crossing, and after crossing, he used a spear, but he was not good at this long knife, so he was dodged by those two people several times when he slashed and killed.
Jiang Sheng simply abandoned the knife and used hand-to-hand combat skills to deal with these two, where had these two ever seen such a small grappling technique, Jiang Sheng was dislocated by Jiang Sheng in a few moves, and collapsed to the ground, at this time Jiang Sheng lit the oil lamp and shouted: "There are assassins!" ”
After a few minutes, several soldiers rushed in from outside the tent, and it turned out that the soldiers guarding outside the tent had already died under the two dead swords.
The soldiers tied up the two people and were about to torture them, but they saw that the two people had already died of poison, it turned out that they had smeared poison on their collars, and licked the poison while Jiang Sheng's soldiers were not paying attention.
Jiang Sheng said secretly: "Brother Bai Qi, I didn't expect you to save me after you died, and the grace of saving my life should be repaid. ”
Finally came to the outside of the city of Luoyang, Jiang Sheng sent his own soldiers into the city to report, the captain Zhang Yan took the Marquis of the Northern Army to the camp to go through the handover procedures, Jiang Sheng said that the Yellow Turban Army and the Black Mountain Army were incorporated into the Northern Army, Zhang Yan and the Marquis of the Northern Army ordered these soldiers to stay in the camp to standby, and sent the five thousand tigers of the Northern Army to closely monitor.
Although these soldiers complained, after Jiang Shengyi's explanation, they all kept their own peace and waited for the military orders of the imperial court.
When entering the city, Zhang Yan said to Jiang Sheng: "The Ten Standing Servants slandered you for fornicating with the Yellow Turban and intending to rebel, and now the Ten Standing Servants of the DPRK and China are confronting the Qingliu Party, you have to be prepared!" ”
"I'm going to return the tiger talisman to the emperor, I don't know what to do with it?"
"Don't enter the palace for the time being, let's make plans after the noon court meeting is dispersed." Zhang Yan was afraid that once Jiang Sheng entered the palace, he would fall into the hands of the ten permanent servants.
Zhen Yan also came to greet Jiang Sheng, and told Jiang Sheng about the current situation in the capital.
Jiang Sheng felt that if he held the talisman in his hand at this time, he would not be able to speak clearly, so he would simply enter the palace, whether it was a blessing or a curse, and a curse that could not be avoided!
The guards guarding the palace gate were nervous when they saw Jiang Sheng dressed in military uniform and striding over, but they were relieved when they saw that there was no one else accompanying Jiang Sheng into the palace.
After inspecting the seal ribbon of the Zhonglang general, the guards allowed Jiang Sheng to enter the palace.
After Jiang Sheng entered the palace, he went straight to the court, only to hear the noise in the court, which was annoying.
The guards guarding outside the hall saw Jiang Sheng coming here and hurriedly went in to report.
There was a sudden silence inside, and people on both sides looked at Jiang Sheng.
"Chen Ping and Zhonglang will knock Jiang Sheng to see the emperor!" Jiang Sheng shouted loudly.
"Humph! Jiang Sheng! You are so bold, you dare to enter the palace to see me?! Emperor Ling's eyes widened angrily, pointed at Jiang Sheng and shouted, and then threw the inscription of Zhang Baiqi written by the extension in front of Jiang Sheng, "See for yourself!" ”
"The minister's loyalty to the emperor can be shown to the sun and the moon, please explain to the minister."
"The evidence is conclusive, there is no need to explain, I have been so gracious to you, you have taken revenge, and you intend to rebel, and the crime cannot be punished!" The Spirit Emperor roared.
The little yellow door guarding outside the hall secretly ran to tell Princess Wannian.
There are a total of ten people in the small yellow gate in the palace, except for the one next to the Spirit Emperor, the remaining nine people take turns to be on duty in the palace. This little yellow door is often on duty in the imperial study, and the princess of Wannian often goes to practice calligraphy, and he also rewards him, so he is loyal to the princess. He knew that the princess liked Jiang Sheng, so he risked his life to report it.
After the Wannian princess Liu Qian got the news, she was taken aback, and hurriedly went to ask the Empress Dowager Dong for help, but was discovered by Zhang Rang's people, Zhang Rang knew that Liu Qian was going to intercede for Jiang Sheng after getting the news, so he said to Emperor Ling that Liu Qian was going to intercede.
How could Emperor Ling, who was furious, let Liu Qian move out of Empress Dong, so he sent guards to take the princess back to the princess's bedroom, so the aforementioned incident of the guards arresting the princess happened.
"Someone! Put Jiang Sheng in prison! "Spirit Emperor Dao.
"Wait!" Counselor Liu Tao dissuaded, "Your Majesty, please stop your anger!" Jiang Sheng will never rebel! ”
Jiang Sheng was still kneeling on the ground, holding an object in both hands, and Liu Tao had already seen it.
"Liu Tao, do you want to resist the decree?" Zhang Rang shouted.
"Your Majesty! Let's see what Jiang Sheng holds? It's a tiger talisman. If Jiang Sheng rebelled, why did he enter the palace alone to return the tiger talisman? With soldiers in hand, it is easy to rebel, and he is willing to enter the palace alone. Is this a rebellion? Your Majesty, please think twice! ”
Zhang Rang said: "Your Majesty, Jiang Sheng's move is a deliberate show of weakness and deceive the emperor!" If he, Jiang Sheng, really has a clear conscience and enters the palace to return the tiger talisman, then what is the reason for the nearly 10,000 Yellow Turban soldiers outside the city? ”
When everyone heard the Yellow Turban Soldiers, they were all taken aback, and their hearts were uneasy, could it be that Jiang Sheng really brought the Yellow Turban Soldiers into the capital? Even the people in Liu Tao's camp didn't dare to speak.
Emperor Ling said angrily: "Jiang Sheng! How do you explain it? ”
Jiang Sheng said: "The last general was careless, Jizhou lost too many officers and soldiers during the battle, so he temporarily received some remnants of the Yellow Turban and the Montenegrin Army who sincerely accepted Zhao'an to replenish the army, and is currently waiting for the order of the Taiwei Mansion in the camp outside the city." ”
Zhang Rang said: "Your Majesty, these thieves who accepted Zhao'an have many complaints, and the old slave has sent people to monitor them, and it is definitely not the sincere surrender that Jiang Sheng said." If you believe Jiang Sheng's words, then the Jingshi is in danger! ”
Emperor Ling's eyes could not tolerate sand, involving the sensitive issue of rule, coupled with Zhang Rang's bitter persuasion, and the silence of Liu Tao's camp made him believe eight points.
Emperor Ling said: "Come on, collect the tiger talisman!" Put Jiang Sheng in the prison and wait for his fate. ”
Liu Tao originally had a lot of resentment towards the Ten Standing Servants, and when he saw Zhang Rang's vigorous pouting of Emperor Ling to cure Jiang Sheng's crimes, this stubborn scholar doctor actually took off his boots and threw them on Zhang Rang's head, and the blood flowed.
The Spirit Emperor said angrily: "Someone! Put, put Liu Tao in prison too! ”
The former Situ Chen Tan also stood up at this time and said: "The emperor thinks twice, Jiang Sheng and Liu Tao are both loyal and good, the emperor should not be deceived by eunuchs, so that the relatives will be painful and the enemies will be happy." ”
Zhang Rang said: "Chen Tan and Liu Tao will protect Jiang Sheng, and they will be involved in the rebellious party, and the old slave will ask the emperor to put them in prison together and interrogate them strictly, and they will not be tolerated and accommodated." ”
