Chapter 16: Lao Tzu's Name is Zhao Sanbao (I)

After the yellow curtain in the Yin'an Palace, Ye Zhaozheng listened to the report of Gao Qin, the general office of the provincial bureau, that the arrested person had confessed seven companions, and even confessed that the Western businessman Montes and the boss of the Four Joys were the masterminds behind the scenes, and the Four Joys were just a small storefront, extremely inconspicuous, but Montes was quite famous in Guangzhou and was active in the social circle of the wealthy in Guangzhou.

Now that the two of them have been closely monitored by the Internal Affairs Bureau, it is natural that these two businessmen are unknown Boss Cai is the real mastermind and a figure sent by the capital, but most of the activities outside are handed over to Montes, and the concealment is extremely strong.

Ye Zhao knew that he was probably inspired by his own Flying Tiger Battalion, the Flying Tiger Battalion was good at pretending to be civilians, but the Six Kings did everything possible to find a Western businessman to work for him, which was really unguardable.

The six kings estimated the blood cost, otherwise with the cruelty of the laws of the Qing Dynasty, and the political axes of various countries declared neutrality, how could this Western merchant dare to intervene? That must be a great benefit.

Tasting the tea, Ye Zhao said: "The companions confessed by the thief must be strictly verified, and don't let him drag innocent people into the water." Of course, the Internal Affairs Bureau will also work on him, so as not to miss the big fish. "The person has already been transferred to the Internal Affairs Bureau, but the confessed worker, Ye Zhao hopes that the Patrol Bureau will review it and then hand it over to the Internal Affairs Bureau, after all, this person has entered the Internal Affairs Bureau, what will happen Ye Zhao is like a mirror in his heart.

"Yes!" Gao Qin hurriedly agreed, but sighed in his heart, human life in the troubled world is like a mustard, which master above treats human life as human life? In these years, there is no difference between humans and beasts, the soldiers who fight in the sea of blood kill each other, and they often hear of cutting the tender meat of prisoners of war and digging out their hearts to roast them, but as far as the prince is concerned, like the spring breeze rolling up in the tragic hell, let these soldiers, let the officials and grass people in this troubled world remember that we are still a person, we must live with dignity, and we must have dignity when we die.

It is no wonder that the old masters followed him, the soldiers followed him, and the merchants and common people followed him.

Just say yourself, if you change the second master to talk about things, are you willing?

"Lord Wang, Shen Baozhen brings!" When Gao Qinzheng was thinking wildly, the guards outside the palace reported.

Shen Baozhen instigated the officers to plot rebellion in the Jiangxi camp, was denounced, and escorted to Guangzhou.

Gao Qin hurriedly got up and retreated, Ye Zhao smiled and said, "No need, you are just right, Shen Baozhen is your fellow townsman and old acquaintance, right?" ”

If he was asked about his relationship with the rebel three years ago or even a year ago, he was afraid that Gao Qin would be scared of white sweat, but now he was sure and bowed down and said, "Yes." ”

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, paced outside the yellow mantle, and Gao Qin hurriedly followed.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside, Shen Baozhen walked in with his head held high, but he didn't tie him up, and he just went before entering the hall with shackles on his hands and feet, and the two guards followed him closely to prevent him from making any changes.

Ye Zhao saw his proud appearance, so he smiled: "Shen Baozhen, are you guilty?" ”

Shen Baozhen said proudly: "If you want to kill, you will kill, there is no need to say more!" Rebellious ministers and thieves, even if you take the country, it must be Wang Mang and Cao Ying! The Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and the little brother will be killed by you sooner or later! ”

Gao Qin and the two guards changed color, and the middle of the scabbard of one of the guards showed half a blade. The Qing Dynasty established the country by force, and the royal family did not avoid swords, but it was the first time that a steel knife was unsheathed in this Su Wang Yin'an Palace, which was really rebellious to Shen Baozhen's words, and it made the palace guards feel weak, because this was also their hope. As long as Ye Zhao raised his hand, Shen Baozhen was going to be pulled down and cut down.

Ye Zhao smiled: "Is it a rebellious minister or a thief, but I want future generations to comment, what glory does Yixin have for him?" I want to be worthy of my heart, and the world slanders me and envy me, so how can I care? Shen Baozhen, you know the strength of Sui, why did it end in two lifetimes? Mo told me that Emperor Yang was brutal and caused chaos in the world. ”

Shen Baozhen raised his head and said, "Why do you say?" ”

Ye Zhao paced two steps and said lightly: "Emperor Yang is not a good emperor, absurd and cruel, but the root of his shaking of the country is because the two generations of emperors of Sui Zhi have experienced the disaster of the rule of the gate valve, and want to cut the power of the gate valve in Guanzhong, but he is too hasty, which angers the door valve in the world, and the common strength is lacking, so that Li Tang has been ruled for hundreds of years. ”

Shen Baozhen froze for a moment and sneered: "Are you comparing yourself to Emperor Yang of Sui?" ”

Ye Zhao smiled: "What is more glorious than Emperor Yang of Sui?" I just want to say that reforming chaos and eliminating disadvantages will inevitably cause disturbances in the world, and some people are afraid of me and slander me behind my back. In this world, if there is no great change, then my land of China will inevitably become the chopping board of the Taixi countries, I am willing to be the demon of this great change, the success is gratifying, the failure, the car cracks and the slow, I am calm. The merits and demerits of the merits and demerits have been commented on by later generations. ”

Shen Baozhen stared at Ye Zhao, and the sneer on his face gradually faded.

Ye Zhao waved his hand: "Send the criminal Shen Baozhen to the prosecutor and convict him!" ”

Shen Baozhen and Gao Qin were both stunned, Shen Baozhen was just an insignificant reader like a sesame mung bean, and when he said those words, he thought that he would die today; Gao Qin thought that the prince was ready to subdue him. But he didn't expect Ye Zhao to send it to the judge.

"Lord Wang, let him be relieved?" Gao Qin asked cautiously, just guessing what the prince meant.

Ye Zhao waved his hand and said, "First wait for the hearing of the judge, and the one who doesn't understand is himself." For "political prisoners" such as officials of the Northern Dynasties, there is naturally another set of trial and sentencing methods, but if Tang Shuyi and others are there, the opportunity for "repentance" is gone.

Listening to the words of the prince, Shen Baozhen still has a chance to live, Gao Qin is relieved, after all, the two of them are old, and they don't want to see his head cut off. The heart said that it is necessary to enlighten him well, the prince is majestic and strategic, the lord of destiny, and it is the wise man who walks with the sky.

The guards pushed Shen Baozhen out of the hall, and Gao Qin immediately said goodbye, and at this time, a guard hurriedly entered and sent a telegram, which was a military report from the Tingyong camp from Tingzhou Mansion in Fujian.

The fourth town of the Pingyuan Army, Fujian Tingyong Daying, is located between Tingzhou Mansion and Yongchun Prefecture, although the telegraph line of the military camp has been erected, but the river section of the mountain pass, still needs to be strengthened and laid the most reasonable line, which is to temporarily communicate with Guangzhou only two hours a day.

The telegram was sent by Zhao Sanbao yesterday, saying that Ma Xinyi and Gang'an responded from the middle, and Liu Denghuan, the prefect of Yanping Prefecture, changed his flag and declared himself a vassal to Emperor Tongzhi, and the existing Ma Xinyi and Gang'an pulled out several battalions of green battalions to occupy Yanping Mansion, and Zhao Sanbao naturally wanted to give it a strong momentum and reorganize the green battalion, and the military affairs were urgent, because he had already brought a guard post on the road last night.

Yanping Mansion? Ye Zhao is a joy, Yanping Mansion is located in the middle of Fujian, is an important town for the soldiers, if Yanping Mansion is in the bag, then the east can enter Fuzhou, the north can resist the security, Zhejiang soldiers, the west echoes with the Jiangxi camp, and southern Fujian is controlled. From then on, the tea merchants in Fujian and Jiangxi were completely under the rule of the Southern Dynasty.

Ma Xinyi and Gang'an's planning is naturally thorough, and Liu Denghuan, the prefect of Yanping, is shrewd and capable, and has long secretly communicated with Zhao Sanbao, which is also reasonable.

Just, Gang'an? Ye Zhao felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, pacing, thinking silently.

At this time, the post house of Yanping Mansion, the sound of gunfire is like rain, on the roof ridge of the courtyard of the post house, the riflemen form a fire network, shoot in all directions, and the houses in this area have been surrounded by the red tassel soldiers, the narrow alleys at the front door and the back door of the post house, there are more soldiers who pile up sacks and sandbags to build fortifications.

Under the umbrella-like ancient tree in the second courtyard of the post house, Zhao Sanbao was silently wiping the rifle with the shiny barrel, and the one who was anxiously pacing beside him was Liu Denghuan, the prefect of Yanping Prefecture.

Liu Denghuan is still glad in his heart, fortunately he chose to visit Zhao Junmen at this time, otherwise he was afraid that he would also be arrested by Mu Yin and Gang'an.

Mu Yin came to Fujian and Zhejiang and Liu Denghuan knew that this deputy commander of Manchuria with a white flag came to Fujian and Zhejiang to assist the governor Yuan Jiasan in handling military affairs, but in fact, he was naturally sent by the six kings to stabilize the situation in Fujian and Zhejiang, and Mu Yin had a close personal relationship with Yuan Jiasan, so he could be said to be a very suitable candidate.

But who knew that Mu Yin would come to Yanping? Obviously, he conspired with Gang'an to play such a big show, Ma Xinyi has been secretly contacting the generals of the green battalion, and Gang'an will plan to trap Ma Xinyi and himself and other officials who have fornicated with the Southern Dynasty in Yanping Mansion, and now this big drama is not in vain, and the famous Sanbaoye in the Pingyuan army is also under siege, Sanbaoye only brought 100 people from the military headquarters guard post to come on fast horses, but I don't know how long it can last?

Originally, Mu Yin, Gang'an and others were going to drugged the post house well, but they might as well guard the sentry alert, so they failed, and then the firearms soldiers and green battalion soldiers led by Mu Yin surrounded the post house and handed over the fire with a bang.

Looking at Zhao Junmen, who was expressionless on his face, Liu Denghuan calmed down for a moment, bowed down and asked, "Junmen, I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive?" ”

Zhao Sanbao didn't lift his eyelids: "There are no reinforcements." There was a faint hint of anger in his eyes, since he was for Gang'an, what he couldn't figure out was how Gang'an would betray the prince.

Liu Denghuan's heart sank, he originally saw that the military gate was calm, and thought that there would be reinforcements to respond, but think about it, the Tingyong battalion is high and long, Zhao Junmen and others are all coming by fast horses, if the brigade moves, I am afraid that it will take a day or two, and if you bring artillery, it will be even slower.

"So, what then?" Liu Denghuan asked helplessly, saying in his heart that he was going to die here today? However, it is not unjust to be able to die with the famous Three Treasures.

Liu Denghuan shook his head, who is not afraid of death? But when it comes to sticking out his head and shrinking his head, it is also a knife, if he is caught by Mu Yin and Gang'an, he can't be like a bad seed.

Zhao Sanbao looked at the fiery clouds in the west with Phnom Penh, and said in an urn voice: "Wait for it to get dark and rush out!" I'm afraid there won't be enough marbles! As he spoke, he stood up and shouted, "Save some marbles for Lao Tzu!" Grandma's old man can still serve the prince and his old man, it depends on whether you bastards are angry or not! ”

The four responses were like thunder, and someone shouted: "Sanbao Ye, I haven't seen the prince yet, if it's a dead ball today, ask the master for something, dig out my eyeballs, and you can take it to see the true face of the prince." ”

Zhao Sanbao scolded with a smile: "Get out! Bloodshot hula, you rabbit cub want to disgust his old man? If you want to see the prince, you can fucking cheer up and kill yourself, and Lao Tzu will take you to Guangzhou to see the prince! ”

"Good!" cheered around, and someone shouted: "Damn, Zhang Luoquan, let you take the lead again!" ”

Liu Denghuan looked and listened in a daze, these rough men, don't they know that they are going to die today? In my heart, I don't know what it's like.
