Chapter 105: Framing Zhongliang
Prepared the fire oil and other fire-causing things, Shi Qian looked around to see that there was no one, and immediately took out the fire fold in his arms, lit the fire, and threw it into the fire oil at once, the fire oil caught fire, and with a bang, the whole hall was shrouded in fire.
All of a sudden, the inner courtyard of the palace was in chaos, the fire was firefighting, the assassin was arrested, and Cai Jing, the Taishi who was at home, learned the news as soon as possible, and he didn't care about changing his clothes at the moment, so he hurriedly called a few Taibao around him, sent troops to reinforce the four gates, and strictly investigated, once he found a suspicious person, he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.
Then he led the forbidden army into the palace with three Taibao to protect the emperor, and at the same time ordered Jiang Xing, the thirteenth Taibao Mantianxing, to call all the other Taibao in Bianliang City, Tokyo to the palace to protect the emperor, and then Jiang Xing, an inn outside the city, dared to come and call back Sha Wenlong and Xue Ming.
After Shi Qian set out the fire in the palace, he didn't dare to stay in the palace too much, after all, there are countless masters in the palace, and if he really finds Shi Qian, he can't escape even if he has three heads and six arms.
With a light skill, coupled with the chaos in the palace, Shi Qian went out of the palace without danger, and he didn't dare to slack off, knowing that Wang Yue and they were all gone at the inn, and it was useless to go again, so Shi Qian directly bought a fast horse and went out of the city directly.
Wang Yue, Mi Sheng, Xuan He, Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang San, Li Si and others quickly whipped up all the way, and only stopped to rest after leaving Tokyo Bianliang for more than ten miles. ——— a few days later, Wang Yue returned to Liangshanbo with Master Li.
Besides, the name of the governor of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo is Zhang Tiande, who has just been promoted from Hebei, and he is also a disciple of Taiwei Tong Guan, although Tong Guan leads the troops all the year round and has a lot of power in the army, but there are also many cronies in the officialdom, and this Zhang Tiande is one of them.
Zhang Tiande is also depressed these days, and there are a few days to be Tong Guan's birthday, and now the gift has not yet been settled, Kaifeng Mansion Yin does not want to be outside those governors, this Tokyo Bianliang is full of dignitaries, where is his small Kaifeng Mansion Yin can offend, so the oil and water is naturally the least.
On this day, in the Taiwei Mansion, Tong Guan sat on the top, next to Yin Zhang Tiande, the Kaifeng Mansion, Tong Guan can be said to be the eunuch who controlled the military power the most in Chinese history; the eunuch with the highest knighthood; The first eunuch to represent the state.
He is not as thin and yin as he imagined, but tall and mighty, full of masculinity, it is difficult to imagine what a eunuch would be like if he had masculinity.
At this time, Tong Guan was playing with a treasure knife in his hand, and Tong Guan was holding the treasure knife and looking at it over and over, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, as if he was not looking at Dan, but a peerless beauty.
After playing for a while, Tong Guan suddenly lost his smile, inserted it into the scabbard, sighed, Zhang Tiande next to him was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Why did the privy sigh well?"
Tong Guan shook his head, sighed heavily, and then said: "But there are divine weapons in the air, and there is no armor to protect oneself, which is also a big pity, so how can I not sigh, alas!"
Zhang Tiande listened to Tong Guan's words, didn't speak, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, suddenly Zhang Tiande's eyes rolled, raised his head and arched his hand towards Tong Guanyi and said: "Speaking of Baojia, the lower official really knows that someone has it."
Tong Guan was overjoyed when he heard it, and hurriedly asked, "Oh? Seriously? Who is it? ”
Zhang Tiande replied truthfully: "It's true, the officials and generals in Beijing all know about this matter, this treasure is called Yanling Circle Golden Armor, which is the family heirloom of Xu Ning, the head of the Golden Gun Class, and he does not avoid knives and guns after wearing them, and he does not look at them with outsiders as a treasure on weekdays.
Tong Guan's eyes lit up after hearing this, this golden gunner Xu Ning He had also heard of it, it is said that this person is strong in martial arts, and his hook and sickle in one hand is powerful in Tokyo, no one is invincible, so he nodded in agreement and sent someone to summon Xu Ning.
After a while, a man walked in from outside, wearing armor, and when Tong Guan looked at Xu Ning, he really looked like a good person: six feet five or six long body, a white face in Tuan Tuan, three teeth and a thin black mustache, very thin waist and broad shoulders.
Xu Ning walked in, hugged his fist towards Tong Guan, and said, "The last general Xu Ning has seen Lord Taiwei, I don't know what Lord Taiwei has to call the last general to come and order?"
Tong Guan was not verbose, and said straightforwardly: "This official heard that General Xu is good at martial arts, and he is a first-class loyal and righteous man, and this official has the heart to recommend the general to serve in the border army and be a general.
Xu Ning was overjoyed when he heard Tong Guan's words, and immediately said: "The last general thanks Lord Taiwei for his appreciation, Xu Ning will be loyal to the country, make meritorious contributions, and live up to the high expectations of Lord Taiwei."
"However, this official recently got a good knife, but unfortunately there is no pair of armor to protect himself, this official heard that General Xu has an ancestral armor in his family?" Tong Guan said that he didn't go any further, although he said it more vaguely, but as long as he was not stupid, he could hear the meaning of the words.
Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, and said in his heart that it was no wonder that he suddenly wanted to promote him, it turned out that he had fallen in love with his own golden circle Yan Lingjia, Xu Ning hugged his fist towards Tong Guan and said: "My lord, this Yan Lingjia is a treasure handed down by the last general's family, forgive Xu Ning for all difficulties."
Tong Guan saw that Xu Ning rejected himself without thinking about it, and the anger in his heart rose up at the moment, but he didn't show it, he laughed at the moment and said: "Well, since General Xu refuses to cut his love, then the official will not be strong, and the official will not leave the general if he still has something to do."
When Xu Ning saw Tong Guan say this, he also got up to say goodbye, turned around and walked out of the Taiwei Mansion.
After Xu Ning left, Zhang Tiande walked out from behind the screen, saw Tong Guan's gloomy face, and said immediately: "My lord, this Xu Ning really doesn't know the current affairs, don't worry, the lower officials will find a way to arrest that Xu Ning to the prison and send it to the border army, and then the golden circle Yan Lingjia is not an adult."
Tong Guan nodded and said, "This matter will be handled by you, cleanly."
"Yes, don't worry, sir." Zhang Tiande yin laughed and said.
This Zhang Tiande didn't want to frame Xu Ning for no reason, everything in the world has a cause and effect, this Zhang Tiande is not greedy for money but lustful, full of lust and hungry ghosts, but anyone who sees some looks, whether it is married or in the boudoir, must do everything possible to get it.
The incident still happened on Chinese New Year's Eve, when the emperor was having fun with the people and holding a lantern festival, Zhang Tiande, as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, was responsible for the security work of the capital, so naturally he had to personally check it, so he led a group of servants to patrol back and forth in the city.
Zhang Tiande didn't see Xuanhe Mi Sheng and their fight, but saw a woman, who looked gentle and magnificent, with a face like a peach blossom, a slender figure, and a fairy descended to earth.
Zhang Tiande, who returned home, was sick with lovesickness, and he didn't think about tea and dinner, and Tong Guan, who was watching in Tong Guan's mansion today, was worried about Baojia, and he had an idea to offer this plan, pit Xu Ning, and Xu Ning died, then his wife could be owned by Zhang Tiande, and he was so vicious that he was angry and hateful.
Let's say that after Zhang Tiande returned to his mansion, he came to the back hall, and someone brought a cup of tea.
Just thinking about it, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, Zhang Tiande looked up and saw that it was none other than his henchman, the master of Kaifeng Mansion, named Lu Quan, who was rich in five cars and resourceful, and paid a lot of attention to him on weekdays.
"Is there something wrong with the master?" As soon as he saw his master Lu Quan walking in, Zhang Tiande asked.
Lu Quan nodded and said: "Lord Hui, it is exactly, someone in the East Market was drunk and became an adult on the street, and he was caught by his subordinates, and when he came down, he asked the adult to ascend to the court to judge the case."
Zhang Tiande is now focused on Xu Ning, where is he still thinking about trying the case, he sighed at the moment and said: "Oh, master, where does this official still have the heart to try the case now." Then he told his master Lu Quan what he said to Tong Guan in the Taiwei Mansion and what happened before and after.
After hearing this, Lu Quan was not worried, but said with joy: "Even so, then the adult should go to the lobby to ask about the case, do you know who is drunk and beating?"
"Who?" Hearing the master's words, Zhang Tiande was a little puzzled, leaned forward at the moment, and asked hurriedly.
Lu Quan twisted his beard, smiled slightly, and said: "This person's name is Tang Long, known as the money leopard, his ancestors are building weapons for a living, his father was the governor of Yan'an Prefecture, but after his father's death, because of his natural gambling, he was exiled in the rivers and lakes. His people are good at making guns and sticks, because they are covered with pockmarks, and they are called money leopards. ”
"What does that have to do with Xu Ning?" The more Zhang Tiande listened, the more confused he became, and he couldn't help but ask.
Lu Quan laughed and said: "Don't worry, adult, this Tang Long is Xu Ning's cousin, a few days ago, the Liangshan thieves made a big noise about the lantern festival and burned the palace, which made Long Yan angry, and the adults can take this opportunity to say that Tang Long is the thief of Liangshan, and then Xu Ning will collude with the Liangshan thief and arrest him, whether he is alive or dead is not a matter of the adult's words."
"Hahaha, wonderful, wonderful, Mr. is really the Marquis of the world, just do what Mr. said, and put Tang Long in prison in the name of the Liangshan thief, and then send someone to Xu Ning's house to arrest Xu Ning, and then convict him of colluding with thieves, hahaha." Zhang Tiande stroked his palms and laughed, nodded incessantly, and said.
Lu Quan answered, turned around and went out.
Let's say that after Xu Ning came out of the Taiwei Mansion, he didn't go to his heart, so he still went to work, he should go home and go home, he still wanted to live as usual, the husband and wife were affectionate, and he was envious of others.
On this day, there was nothing to do in the palace, Xu Ning came back early, and when he returned home, his wife Xu Niangzi had already prepared the food and scalded the wine, and Xu Ning was eating, so he heard a rapid knock on the door, mixed with the sound of calling the door and talking.
Xu Ning didn't think much about it, wiped his mouth at the moment, got up and walked out of the room to the courtyard, took a few steps to the gate, took off the deadbolt on the door, and opened the door.
The door opened left and right, and a team of officials from Kaifeng Mansion rushed in, led by Lu Quan, the master of Kaifeng Mansion, Lu Quan walked in, looked Xu Ning up and down, in fact, he had never seen Xu Ning, but he had heard that this person was strong in martial arts, and immediately asked: "Is Xu Jiaotou at home?"
"Down there is Xu Ning." When Xu Ning heard that he was looking for himself, he immediately hugged his fist towards Lu Quan and said.
As soon as Lu Quan saw that the man in front of him was the golden gunner Xu Ning, he took a look at it, and it was really a hero, but Shangfeng didn't dare to delay, so he waved his hand and commanded the official next to him, saying: "The prisoner Xu Ning colluded with the Liangshan thieves, took it away, and put it in prison."
A group of officials next to him responded, and when Xu Ning was stunned, he put his shoulders on his shoulders and tied Xu Ning tightly, and when Xu Ning came back to his senses, he was shocked, and he had some doubts in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Isn't it that you have caught the wrong person, but Xu Ning, the head of the Golden Gun Class."
"That's right, it's you who caught it, don't be verbose, take it away." Lu Quan said a word, and then a group of officials sent Xu Ning to Kaifeng Mansion and put him in prison.
Xu Ning didn't know what was going on at this time, he was arrested in a daze and put in prison, and he was charged with colluding with the Liangshan thieves, the world can be learned, I, Xu Ning, don't even know what the Liangshan thieves look like, how can they collude with the Liangshan thieves, Xu Ning sat in the cell, puzzled.
"But, Xu Ning, cousin?" Just as Xu Ning was thinking hard, a voice came out of the cell next to him.
As soon as Xu Ning heard that someone recognized him, he immediately raised his head and followed the voice, the cell was dimly lit, and he couldn't see who he was talking to, so he moved forward again, and then asked, "Who is this friend?" How do you know the name below? ”
The man was overjoyed when he heard Xu Ning's words, and said with some joy at the moment: "Cousin, I am Tang Long, the money leopard Tang Long."
Xu Ning took a few steps forward, came to the front of the closer, and took a closer look, this man was more than seven feet tall, with a numb face and a big road on his nose. , who is not Tang Long, and asked at the moment: "Brother, how did you come to this prison?" What did you do? ”
Tang Long sighed when he heard this, and said: "I am living in a tight situation at home, so I thought of coming to Tokyo to join my brother, with my Tang Long's iron-striking skills, I can also eat a mouthful, and when I arrived in Tokyo, I got drunk in the building, and had a quarrel with someone, and finally had a big fight, and was taken in by Ren of Kaifeng Mansion, I thought it was a crime of disturbing public order, but who would have thought that the Fu Yin would add a Liangshan thief to me, although I admired those heroes, but I couldn't be so wronged."
Hearing Tang Long's words, Xu Ning thought of himself again, and immediately understood, and then Tang Long opened his mouth and asked, "Isn't my brother the head of the Golden Gun Class?" How did you end up in this prison? ”
Xu Ning smiled bitterly, sighed, and said, "I am also wronged, but the crime is related to you, brother, and it is collusion with Liangshan thieves."
