Chapter 312: He Accidentally Fell
The intervention of Feitianmen and Moyu Academy made a big reversal when the originally one-sided situation occurred.
The Praetorian Guards had already clenched their spears, just waiting for Wan Jie's order. But Wan Jie's expression on his face changed, but he never gave an order.
On one side is Lord Xiangguo, on the other side is the important minister of the former dynasty, Wan Jie is mixed in the middle and it is difficult to be a person, and Tang An is annoyed in his heart. Gritted his teeth and said: "Dean Li, Wan Mou respects you as a senior, and you don't dare to be presumptuous." But Tang An gathered a crowd to disrupt the security of the capital today, and slandered the prince of Xiangguo again and again, and asked your seniors not to meddle in your affairs, so as not to set yourself on fire. ”
Li Moyu didn't buy it, and said: "If the evidence is conclusive, the old man will never shield the student." But now that Tang An's wife has been taken away, if Lord Wan is sensible, should he invite Dongfang Gongzi to come and confront him? ”
"Dongfang Gongzi is a famous family, how can he do such a dirty thing?" Wan Jie retorted.
Li Moyu said with a smile: "Lord Wan's words are wrong. Tang An is a disciple of my Moyu Academy, and he has always been influenced by the teachings of the academy. Dongfang Gongzi is from a famous family and can't lie, so will the disciples taught by my Moyu Academy be framed and slandered at will? ”
In terms of eloquence, Wan Jie is not the opponent of this old fox. Wan Jie scolded secretly in his heart, knowing that the longer he dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for him, and said: "Right and wrong, let's see in court." The next official took Tang An first, and the rest was handed over to Dali Temple to conclude. ”
"Who dares to take people!" Wang Daxian took a step forward and said loudly.
It is no secret that the Flying Gate and the Praetorian Guard have always been at odds. This time, Tang An is in trouble, and secondly, he can also find the bad luck of the Praetorian Guard, how could Wang Daxian let go of such an opportunity and watch Wan Jie ride on top of his head to make a fortune?
"Wang Daxian, you must fly to the Heavenly Gate against my Praetorian Guard, right?" Wan Jie said coldly.
"Tang An is an official of the imperial court, even if you want to take people, it will not be your turn to be a Praetorian Guard, you are guilty of overstepping your authority. The Flying Gate is the number of the emperor's order, and it has the right to cut first and then play. Wang Daxian waved his hand: "The old man will accuse you of abuse of power now." Come on, take Wanjie down for me! ”
"Who dares to do it!" Wan Jie shouted, "Old horseman, you really treat me as a soft persimmon!" Okay, let's see if it's your flying gate today, or my Praetorian Guard! ”
The people on both sides of the speech wanted to make a move, and the people were shocked and retreated one after another.
Although Feitianmen is fierce, there are only a dozen people, even if they are all strong in martial arts, they are definitely not the opponents of the Praetorian Guard in front of them, who are several times the number of their own.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, Tang An turned over and dismounted, and said: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, everyone is watching today, Tang's beloved wife was taken away, and he is worried, but this Lord Wan is afraid of the power of the prince of Xiangguo, and insists on arresting Tang indiscriminately!" It is a great irony that the plaintiff has become the defendant. Tang, like everyone, is a grassroots through and through, and what happened to Tang An today is likely to become what happened to you! ”
The common people are well aware of what is happening in front of them, but they have long been accustomed to compromise, but they do not have the courage to resist at all. Listening to Tang An's words at this time, everyone clenched their fists and gritted their teeth, staring at Wan Jie with resentment.
"The human heart is made of flesh, and if your wife were taken captive, how would you feel?" Tang An continued, "And he, Lord Wan Jiewan, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, holds the imperial court's money, but uses the imperial court's army for personal use, just to flatter the powerful and pave his own green cloud road. Our army has pointed the finger at the people of the Tang Dynasty! Folks, the armor on their bodies and the spears they hold in their hands were bought by turning our hard-earned money into taxes, and now, it is pointing at us! ”
The people thought that they were tight on food and clothing, and lived hard, but they gave high taxes to the imperial court, but now they have become the weapons of the magnates, and they are even more depressed.
"Some time ago, the four ghosts of the Western Regions infiltrated the capital, and overnight, twenty-nine ordinary people died. Tang would like to ask here: How did they enter Bianjing City? Could it be that our gate is in vain, and those demons can come and leave when they want? Ladies and gentlemen, where are the Praetorian Guards who protect our lives when those murderers are killing people and setting fires? ”
Tang An's voice became more and more excited, and he stretched out his hand to point at Wan Jie: "The people we support with our hard-earned money will not catch thieves, will not fight, will not protect our safety, and will only show off their power to their own food and clothing!" They're standing across from us! ”
The Praetorian Guards looked at each other, although they didn't want to admit it in their hearts, but Tang An's words were indeed ironclad facts. Looking at the murderous eyes of the common people, they lowered their heads in shame one by one.
"Enough! Don't let him go on! Arrest him! Wan Jie hissed. I have known for a long time that this guy is very eloquent, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful, and just a few words aroused public anger. Wan Jie didn't know if if he was allowed to continue, the angry people would be able to strip him alive.
"At the critical moment, it was our heroes who stepped forward, they defended the dignity of Datang, strangled the four ghosts of the Western Regions, and blessed our peace. And that's how he, Lord Wanjiewan, treats our heroes! There is such an army, as a member of Datang, I feel a deep shame! ”
"Go back!"
"Call out our hard-earned money!"
"A bastard who doesn't do anything else, and he still has the face to show off his power here!"
"Kill them!"
With one person taking the lead, the people no longer had any scruples, they scolded one by one, and some people even threw eggs and vegetable leaves at the Praetorian Guard, and the scene was chaotic to the extreme.
Li Moyu, Wang Daxian and others on the side secretly screamed. This guy made the situation change quickly in just a few words, and he really had Su Qin's eloquence.
Tang An raised his hand, and the people led by him suddenly fell silent.
Tang An pointed at Wan Jie and said: "Everyone, at the moment, we are too many people, and the so-called 'law does not blame the public', if it is past today, there will be no such opportunity." How they are powerful and oppressive on weekdays, we will return them all, let them know that we are not easy to bully! ”
"Tang An! You... What do you want? Wan Jie was a little frightened when he saw that the crowd was excited.
"Beat him!" Tang An roared.
"Beat him!"
The people, who had long been unable to hold back their anger, rushed towards the Praetorian Guard one by one like tigers out of the gate.
The guards, who have always relied on the fact that they are oppressive, have long been accustomed to being on top, when have they ever seen such a scene? One by one, their faces were as pale as earth, and they hurriedly retreated while holding spears as a deterrent.
"Hit hard!" Tang An continued to incite.
"You dare! I'm a court official, you untouchables! Beating up the court officials is a capital crime to exterminate the clan at a different price, you... Oh! I don't know who grabbed Wan Jie's trouser legs and pulled him off the horse. The first daring man punched Wan Jie in the face, and then the fist rained down.
"Tang An! You remember for me, you dare to hit me! I want to enlighten the emperor and let you destroy your family... Oh! Who hit me! Oh! Don't fight, don't fight! I... Oh! I know it's wrong, stop fighting! ”
Wan Jie's miserable screams came, which made Tang An feel good. said to Xu Xian: "Brother Xu, did I instruct someone to beat him?" ”
"How could it be, in my opinion, Lord Wan accidentally fell." Xu Xian laughed.
Tang An also smiled and arched his hand: "Tang An has written down everyone's feelings, the matter is urgent, Tang An is one step ahead!" ”
"We're going with you!" The eldest lady and the eldest young master and others said in unison.
"Okay, let's go to Xiangguo's Mansion today to make a fuss!" Tang Anxin was determined, turned on his horse, and headed in the direction of Xiangguofu.
Dongfang Xuanyun, just rely on you to move my wife. Today, Lao Tzu will let you know what will happen if you anger Lao Tzu!
