Chapter 204: Rites

Situ is a good general, and the evil official imposes heavy punishment; Farewell thank you, fine flag to send you off!

At sunset, the people from all over the country gradually gathered in front of the city, and at first only a few brave people leaned closer to look. Only the villagers of the village rescued by Zhang Liang entered the city without any scruples. After discovering that they were not unusual, all the people walked into the county one after another.

Zhang Liang didn't want to see the fate of those dog officials. In fact, he knows very well in his heart that what awaits them is nothing more than death. It is just a matter of how the people vent their anger in their hearts.

Zhang Yun was responsible for arranging all the arrested women back to their relatives one by one, and his colleagues supervised the order of the execution ground. When he asked about the handling of the officials and soldiers, Zhang Liang replied without hesitation: "Those who commit adultery, plunder, and murder are beheaded!" Those who hurt people are sentenced heavily! ”

In just a few words, all sinners have already got the fate they deserve. The people in the school yard in the city were full of emotion, and they constantly denounced the crimes of the officials, soldiers and officials. It's as if they can't finish all their evil deeds after three days and three nights.

Zhang Liang was in the government at this time, and it was he who ordered someone to call Bai Yuan and several former centurions of the Qin army, intending to have a good chat with them.

When Bai Yuan and the others walked into the yamen and saw Zhang Liang, they immediately bowed down and bowed, looking very respectful.

"Thank you for giving us the opportunity, and I beg you to let our soldiers also accept the judgment of the people, and if there is a traitor and oppression of the good people, we will not tolerate it!"

The request of several people made Zhang Liang feel very gratified. Seeing that the other party was so honest, he said casually: "I have asked the sergeant to inquire in many places in the city. Indeed, you have not done anything unreasonable. However, after all, you have been attached to those dog officials, and it is reasonable for the people to resent you. Now I'm going to make atonement for your sins, are you willing? ”

Qin Jun had long known that he was a little unbearable in the eyes of the people, and although he did not commit murder, he also blamed himself a little. Hearing that Zhang Liang let himself atone for his sins, he hurriedly replied: "I am willing to listen to the send-off." ”

Seeing that they had agreed, Zhang Liang nodded casually and smiled: "You centurions will choose a commander by themselves, and the security of this county will be handed over to you in the future!" I give you a suggestion, in addition to patrols and drills on weekdays, you might as well help the people do more things, people's hearts change, the reason is very simple! ”

A few people didn't expect that Zhang Liang would still let them defend this place. It's not just a trust, it's a trust.

"My lord, we will not dishonor your orders. If you can't defend the people of this county, I'll see you! ”

Regarding everyone's promise, Zhang Liang nodded slightly, expressing trust. Then he commanded them: "After I return to Handu." New officials will be sent to take up their posts. When the time comes, you will work together to make the people of this county live a good life again! In addition, you can also look for the escaped soldiers, and then invite them to join your army, register and make a register, and then report to Handu, and the cost of the army will be borne by the above. But one thing to remember, you must restrain the words and deeds of all the sergeants, or you will be digging your own grave! From the moment I stepped into Korea, as long as I am willing to do good, anyone is my Hanmin! ”

Hearing that he could levy soldiers, everyone was stunned! Private sergeants are a big crime, but now they have Zhang Liang's permission. This will not only increase the power to protect the people, but also reduce the chance of the stragglers becoming outlaws! Several husbands were once again impressed by Zhang Liang's style of doing things, and they began to believe Bai Yuan's words, the person in front of them was indeed different from ordinary people, and following him, they could really find their pride!

Seeing that they were speechless, Zhang Liang continued to smile and said, "Okay, I've finished the arrangements, can you give me a candidate for the commander?" ”

Hearing that Zhang Liang was going to lead the candidate, several husbands immediately began to discuss in a low voice, and after a while, they all turned around and replied: "My lord, we all think that Bai Yuan can take on this position!" ”

When Bai Yuan heard that the audience recommended him, he was secretly happy in his heart. His ambition is to regain the glory of his lintel by his own efforts. Although there is no war now, it is also an accomplishment for him to be able to defend the people.

Zhang Liang heard the recommendation of several people, but suddenly raised his head and replied: "No, this candidate can only be among a few of you, Bai Yuan, don't worry about it!" ”

Hearing Zhang Liang's rejection of the proposal, several people were stunned. And Bai Yuan was also a little disappointed at this time.

Looking at the expressions of several people, Zhang Liang knew that they didn't understand what they meant. So he smiled and said, "I'm going to take this kid away and go back to Handu with me!" ”

Everyone really didn't expect that Zhang Liang would bring Bai Yuan back to Handu, and several husbands were overjoyed. And Bai Yuan himself stood straight in place, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time!

Following Zhang Liang back to the capital means that there are more opportunities to show his talents and ambitions, which is a dream for every person with lofty ideals. At this time, everyone knew Zhang Liang's intentions, he was not optimistic about Bai Yuan, on the contrary, he was too optimistic about Bai Yuan!

"Bai Yuan, go back with Lao Tzu. Everyone in the world calls your ancestor General Bai Qi a slaughter! This title is both positive and negative. Lao Tzu doesn't want you to be slaughtered! I want you to be an excellent general, even surpassing the four generals of the Warring States! ”

The expectations of the people you respect are the best encouragement and spur for yourself! When he heard that Zhang Liang hoped that he would surpass the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, Bai Yuan's mood was very high-pitched!

"Adults, the little ones will live up to your expectations! Even if you die on the battlefield, you have no regrets! ”

Seeing that Bai Yuan was ambitious, Zhang Liang nodded with a smile, expressing his belief that he could do it.

Just as several husbands were congratulating Bai Yuan, Zhang Yun suddenly came to Yazhong. As soon as he saw Zhang Liang, he hurriedly reported: "Son, the emotions of the people are becoming more and more difficult to control!" Do you think it's better to execute the criminals as soon as possible!? ”

Knowing that the people were already a little out of control, Zhang Liang hurriedly said to Zhang Yun and several husbands: "You go to the execution ground quickly." Execute those bandits in sergeant uniforms first! The three culprits were directly handed over to the people, and they could do whatever they wanted! ”

When Zhang Yun heard that Gongzi was going to let the people torture the three main criminals, he immediately asked anxiously: "Gongzi, will this be too intense?" I'm just afraid that the people will really eat them alive! ”

After listening to Zhang Yun's worries, Zhang Liang replied casually: "What you said is also true, eating these bastards is easy to have a bad stomach!" Then go and consult the people and see what you should do with them! And then make a decision! ”

When Zhang Yun heard this, he immediately replied: "The little ones have already asked, and the people are all asking for them to be Lingchi!" ”

"It's disgusting, isn't it?!" Although Zhang Liang often used torture to scare his enemies, it was very difficult to get him to carry it out. Knowing that the people really wanted to cut them with a thousand knives, Zhang Liang immediately became embarrassed.

As soon as Zhang Yun saw that Gongzi was in trouble, he casually said: "Childe, Ling Chi is a lynching. It is indeed not suitable for public executions! It's better to change the sentence to crack the car! ”

As soon as he heard that the car was cracked, Zhang Liang immediately replied: "This is not much different from Ling Chi!" It's just as disgusting! ”

Seeing that Ling Chi's car was cracking, everyone fell into deep thought. After a long time, Zhang Liang suddenly sighed, followed by him and said to Zhang Yun: "Forget it! Let's do it! If you don't let the people out of this bad breath, I'm afraid they will always be miserable! ”

After Zhang Yun received the order, he immediately took several husbands out to carry out the execution.

Bai Yuan was still staying by Zhang Liang's side at this time, and seeing that his brows were tightly knit, he thought that he was suspicious of this punishment, so he hurriedly comforted: "My lord, those three people are all extremely vicious!" You don't have to care! I am afraid that such a punishment will be light for them. ”

As soon as he saw Bai Yuan extricating himself, Zhang Liang immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." I just think this kind of death is really inconvenient to clean up."

After the first offender and the extremely evil officials and soldiers were subdued, Zhang Liang spent two days walking all over the villages and houses that had been bullied, and after distributing all the property of the government to the people, he did some handling of military and government affairs. In the early morning of the fourth day, he quietly led the sergeants to prepare to leave the county seat.

As soon as the army left the city gate, all the people had gathered outside the city, from the old people to the toddlers.

Seeing Zhang Liang leading the army out of the city gate, the people immediately knelt on the ground. The old man at the head was Shui Bo, his eyes were filled with tears at this time, and he choked for a long time before he said to Zhang Liang: "My lord, why do you want to say goodbye?" You are the lifesaver of our county. How can you just leave silently?! Can't we even send you off? ”

Facing the people who came to see them off, Zhang Liang hurriedly stepped forward to let them get up. "Shui Bo, I was just afraid that you would work hard to send everyone to send each other, so I wanted to leave quietly. But you are very old, and there are children under the age of one among you, are you trying to torment me?! ”

When Shui Bo heard that Zhang Liang didn't want to affect the people, he immediately smiled and said, "My lord, don't say it's me and the child. Even the paralyzed bedridden people in the village, when they heard that you were leaving, they wanted to crawl to see you off! Your great kindness, we will never forget! We know that you are the husband of the princess, and you have all the gold, silver, and goods. But we still want to show a little bit of heart. After Shui Bo finished speaking, several people took a huge banner. When the flag was unfurled, I saw an eye-catching "Han" embroidered on it! Although Zhang Liang doesn't know Xiao Seal, he is used to seeing military flags, and he still knows the country name!

When he took over this special flag, Zhang Liang's heart couldn't calm down for a long time. In his mind, no gold, silver, or jewel in this world is as good as this banner in his hand. It's not just a flag, it's a human heart! He could not accept other things, but he had to accept this gift, and he couldn't put it down.

Everyone was overjoyed to see Zhang Liang receiving the flag and cherishing it. Before Zhang Liang could say thank you, Shui Bo continued: "My lord, we learned that the princess is already happy. I made a few baby quilts overnight, I hope you don't dislike it. ”

Zhang Liang heard that the people had made brocade quilts for their born children, and hurriedly bowed down to thank everyone. When the pocket-sized and cute brocade was sent to Zhang Liang, he could no longer suppress his emotions

Who said that men don't shed tears, but it's not time to be emotional! (To be continued.) )
