Chapter 396: Ruthless (7)
Chapter 396: Ruthless (7)
Kong Sheng's personal execution with a cane, of course, is only a formality, how can he really act as an execution guard in his identity. He just responded in vain, and the real executioner was Jiao Ke's pawns.
These guards of the Divine Dragon Guard have recently hated Yue Peng, a group of commanding eunuchs, and they are naturally extremely ruthless. After a few sticks, Yue Peng cried wolf howls, and the shrill and trembling sound of begging for mercy was endless, echoing in the empty field outside the palace for a long time.
The dozens of eunuchs under Yue Peng crowded outside the palace gate with frightened expressions, staring at Yue Peng who was being executed here, Yue Peng's miserable moaning and begging for mercy came from his ears, and they all broke out in a cold sweat and turned pale.
"General, Governor, miscellaneous family knows wrong...... Spare a little life! ”
"Ah...... It's a painful death for the miscellaneous family......"
"The big governor, the little one knows that he is wrong, he doesn't dare anymore, spare his life!"
Yue Peng's cry for mercy became higher and higher-pitched, and more and more sharp, and he could hear the Shenlong Guard soldiers present laughing secretly in their hearts, but at the same time, they were in awe of Kong Sheng's decisive methods and words.
Who is Yue Peng? The head of the eunuch with a very high status in the palace, the henchman of the current provincial supervisor Yu Chaoen, who is currently covering the sky with one hand, and the Shenlongwei inspection envoy who was personally canonized by the emperor, but Kong Sheng said that he would fight, what kind of courage and thunder means is this?
A group of eunuchs rushed out of Chengtianmen with great momentum, and a little eunuch in Tsing Yi raised his hand from a distance and shouted: "Lord Yu of the Inner Servant Province has arrived, stop!" ”
Yu Chaoen has arrived!
This is the rescue soldiers moved by Yue Peng's group of eunuchs.
The eunuchs fell to their knees in front of Yu Chaoen and the others in a panic, and began to wail endlessly, and some began to complain to Yu Chaoen about today's miserable situation with all their might, praying that Yu Chaoen would be the master of Yunyun.
The executioner Shenlongwei stopped his hand with some trepidation and looked at Kong Sheng, who was standing on the side with a condensed expression.
Kong Sheng sneered: "Continue the execution!" Thirty rods are responsible, not a single stick can be less, not a stick can be discounted, one less stick, the official is the only one who asks! ”
Shenlongwei let out a sigh of relief, gritted his teeth, ignored the noisy movement on Yu Chaoen's side, and continued to carry out the execution with a staff.
Yu Chaoen was furious, and his anger turned into a color.
The small leader of the eunuchs under him, Shanren Yi, relied on the power of Yu Chaoen, rushed over and shouted: "You guys are against you?!" The provincial supervisor of the fish province has arrived, let you stop, your ears are deaf?! ”
Kong Sheng cast a deep glance at Jiao Ke.
Jiao Ke smiled coldly, stepped forward, and scolded angrily: "Who dares to stop the execution of Shenlongwei? ”
Jiao Ke's retort really made the Shenlongwei present feel extremely excited, and he was slightly nervous. Shenlongwei is a special institution of the Emperor Suwei, this is something they have been instilled since they entered the guard, but in the face of the power of the inner palace, the head of Shenlongwei is still so strong, it really makes many people unexpected!
Jiao Ke knew that Kong Sheng was present, and Kong Sheng would stand up to him when the sky fell. Moreover, he understands Kong Sheng's true intentions, today is Liwei, the Emperor of Shenlongwei Suwei supervises hundreds of officials and ministers to investigate the capital and the world, this is not a joke, the supreme authority of Shenlongwei starts from today, starts from outside the Chengtian Gate, and starts from the expulsion of the eunuchs in the palace with the rod, and it is established little by little!
"Someone, take this person down to the Commander!" Jiao Ke gave an order, and the first to rush out was not the ordinary Shenlong Guard, but the group of masked former shadow guards.
The two shadow guards pressed Shanrenyi to the ground like a goshawk grabbing a chicken, and without saying anything, they tied up Shanrenyi, and even though they were angry and screaming, they didn't stop.
A chuckle crossed the corner of Kong Sheng's mouth. He knew in his heart that for the group of arrogant eunuchs in the palace, these shadow guards were actually disgusted more than anyone else.
The shadow guard made a move, and the eunuchs were a little worried. The shadow guard is the shadow beside the emperor, and has always been the only truly feared existence of this group of eunuchs in the palace. Even Yu Chaoen is no exception.
Yu Chaoen's face changed suddenly, the corners of his mouth trembled with anger, and his face was even more hideous.
It was the first time since he took charge of the Inner Palace that he was slapped in the face. Kong Sheng not only didn't give him face, but also grabbed his subordinates in front of him, which really ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall.
Yu Chaoen walked towards Kong Sheng angrily and roared angrily: "Kong Sheng, you are so bold, you dare to catch the walking chamberlain of His Majesty's inner palace!" Yue Peng is the inner servant of the Inner Servant Province, the Inspector of the Shenlong Guard canonized by His Majesty, even if he commits a mistake, he will also be convicted by His Majesty, and your unauthorized execution is to trespass and bully the king! ”
Kong Sheng slowly turned his head to look at Yu Chaoen, his eyes were calm and indifferent: "Yu Provincial Supervisor, since Yue Peng is the inspection envoy of Shenlongwei, he is Kong's subordinate, how Kong Sheng punishes, that is Kong's business, this is Shenlongwei's internal affairs, and it is not the turn of the Fish Provincial Supervisor to take charge!" ”
"Don't stop, keep the execution!" Kong Sheng burst into a shout: "Who dares to interfere in the internal affairs of Shenlongwei and trample on the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Hugh blames the official for turning his face and being ruthless!" ”
"You...... Licentious! The miscellaneous family will go to your majesty to join you for the crime of bullying the king! Yu Chaoen couldn't hold his face on the first, and he was extremely angry, his shoulders and head were trembling, his body was already extremely bloated, which made him even more ugly and hideous.
"Okay, please take care of yourself in the fish provincial prison! But what Kong needs to tell you is that no matter how you slander and frame in front of Your Majesty, Kong Sheng has nothing to fear! If you dare to make something out of nothing, Kong Mou will let out this Shenlongwei Governor and not do it, and he will also take you down and punish you! Kong Sheng waved his hand lightly, and then turned to Jiao Ke and the others: "Remember, Shenlongwei is not a subordinate office of the Inner Service Province, Shenlongwei is on duty Si Tianting, and the rank is the third grade, and it is the official government on a par with the six yamen, no matter who it is in the future, if you dare to roar in Shenlongwei, you will be dealt with according to the law!" ”
"Subordinates obey!" Jiao Ke led the gods Long Wei to promise.
Kong Sheng smiled loudly: "Nangong Wang, hand over the recent investigation file of Shenlongwei to the Yu Provincial Supervisor for a look - take the official's mount, and the official will leave the palace if he has other important matters, so he will not accompany him!" ”
Kong Sheng stepped on the wind and rode his horse away, rolling up a cloud of smoke and dust.
Yu Chaoen's face was distorted, and he was extremely ashamed. He casually flipped through the case files handed over by Nangong Wang, his face became more and more gloomy, and his hands twitched violently. After a long time, he angrily left Yue Peng, who had already fainted with a cane, and returned to the palace with his subordinates in embarrassment.
Nangong Wang looked deeply at the back of Yu Chaoen and the others leaving, and said in his heart: From today on, Kong Sheng and Yu Chaoen will really have a feud, and there are these eunuchs who have repeatedly slandered in front of the emperor, I am afraid that ...... In the future, Shenlongwei must act cautiously, and must not be caught by Yu Chaoen's eunuchs in the inner province, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
But Nangong Wang didn't know that in Kong Sheng's heart, Yu Chaoen was a clown at most, not even an opponent. Don't look at Yu Chaoen's power, but he is just a eunuch leader, no matter how favored he is in front of the emperor, he is not as good as Kong Sheng - the reason is very simple, now the situation is not stable, the emperor still needs Kong Sheng to control the forbidden army to help him centralize power, how can he break with Kong Sheng for a eunuch?
Therefore, no matter how Yu Chaoen rebounded, Kong Sheng was not afraid. Moreover, he expected that Yu Chaoen would not dare to go to the emperor to sue for any royal complaint, once this matter was revealed, Yu Chaoen and Yue Peng teamed up to take bribes and install a relationship in Shenlongwei would be known to the emperor, even if Kong Sheng was questioned, Yu Chaoen would not have any good fruit to eat.
For Yu Chaoen, Kong Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to it before. But when he can't bear it anymore, when he touches the bottom line, he won't be merciful.
He didn't care how Yu Chaoen settled the matter, anyway, it was impossible for Shenlong Weizhong to be infiltrated and seized power by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and all the related households would be kicked out. If Yu Chaoen didn't move, Kong Sheng would do it himself.
Of course, this time he and Yu Chaoen have formed a mortal enmity, and I am afraid that it will be an endless ending in the future. There is no doubt that Yu Chaoen will always take revenge in the future.
Kong Sheng's reprimanding of Yue Peng, the expulsion of the eunuchs of the province, and the angry reprimand of Yu Chaoen in front of him soon spread inside and outside the palace, shaking the whole city. When Empress Zhang rushed to the Chengtian Gate with Dingwang Li Tong and others, the front of the Shenlongwei Yamen had already dispersed, and Empress Zhang could only see Yue Peng, who was unconscious and blurred in flesh and blood, being carried into the palace by several eunuchs, and was extremely embarrassed.
Reactions have been mixed.
Empress Zhang looked at the heavily guarded gate of the Shenlongwei Yamen and was stunned for a long time before silently ordering to be diverted back to the palace. Before entering the Anning Palace, she leaned out of Luan and said softly to Zhu Huiguang: "Huiguang, this Kong Sheng is really as strong as the rumors, is he fearless, or is he young and vigorous?" ”
Zhu Huiguang lowered his voice and said with a smile: "Niangniang, the slave and maid estimate that although General Kong is not very old, he is not impulsive and reckless. Most of what he did today was for the sake of prestige. In fact, during this period of time, the Inner Servant Province was really not like talking, and a good Shenlongwei made a black miasma, and General Kong's action was also expected by the slaves. ”
Empress Zhang sighed: "Yu Chaoen is deeply favored by His Majesty, he was trampled by Kong Sheng today, I am afraid that he will not give up." ”
Zhu Huiguang smiled, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "Niangniang, the slave maid thinks that the eunuch is the eunuch, no matter how His Majesty trusts it, it is the eunuch, and the eunuch is not allowed to interfere in politics, this is the duty." Yu Chaoen controls the inner province and covers the sky with one hand in the inner palace, His Majesty is the king of the Holy Ming, and he is afraid that he is also vigilant. ”
Empress Zhang fell silent.
Zhu Huiguang and Yu Chao are inseparable, to put it bluntly, it is still a struggle for power. Yu Chaoen covered the sky with one hand in the inner palace, which undoubtedly pressed on Zhu Huiguang's head, and it was reasonable for Zhu Huiguang to be unhappy. Fortunately, Zhu Huiguang is scheming, low-key, and never openly competes with others for power, and for the time being, the Anning Palace has not attracted Yu Chaoen's suppression.
But Empress Zhang knew in her heart that Yu Chaoen looked down on herself as a queen, because she was the queen who had no foundation in the court, and the family power outside the court had declined. What's more, as the queen, the prince she gave birth to is destined not to be the crown prince, how can these powerful eunuchs in the harem take her in their eyes?
His son, Li Tong, the king of Ding, suddenly chuckled on the side: "Queen Mother, Yu Chaoen's things today, in fact, Li Fuguo's things yesterday, my son thinks that he has no chance of winning if he wants to fight with the general." ”
Empress Zhang continued to be silent until she entered the Anning Palace without a single comment. (To be continued.) )
