Chapter 55: The Guillotine Wine
This foot was extremely hard, Chen Zikun only felt that the blood in his chest was surging, and a mouthful of blood immediately spurted out, and he knew that he had broken at least three ribs.
The sun in the sky is white and flowery, the people who shine are dizzy, the golden general's epaulettes on the shoulders of the bald old man's military uniform are shining, looking from below, a broad face is hideous and fierce, and he is extremely majestic, he is Lu Rongting!
Thinking that his aunt died tragically at the hands of this person, Chen Zikun suddenly burst out of a force from the crack in the bone, grabbed Lu Rongting's calf and twisted it hard, Lu Rongting didn't expect him to be able to reincarnate a salted fish, and was almost overturned by this force, but Jiang was still old and spicy, and Chen Zikun's dying struggle did not succeed, but angered him.
Lu Rongting almost stumbled, and the adjutant and guards were shocked and shouted: "Handsome! At the same time, more than a dozen bayonets pressed against Chen Zikun's body, and he could be stabbed into a hornet's nest with just one order.
The marshal was furious, snatched the French Lebel rifle in the hands of the guards, and loaded it with a bang, and was about to fire it at Chen Zikun's head.
Chen Zikun glared angrily, without fear, the only thing he thought of at this moment was,, he didn't expect to die today, death is nothing, but death is not good.
At this moment, the soldiers of the guard battalion of the Generalissimo's Mansion poured out like a tide, closed the roads and closed the doors, and all vehicles and pedestrians were ordered to stop in place, and those who violated the order were killed.
Lu Rongting stared at Chen Zikun for a few seconds, and suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched, threw the gun to the guards, and said, "Take it back, this commander will interrogate him personally." ”
After saying that, he turned around and entered the Shuai Mansion, Chen Zikun was tied up by a group of guards, and the moment he was erected, he caught a glimpse of Lu Rongting walking with a limp.
There were several corpses of guards lying on the street, although the power of the bullet in the palm of the thunder was limited, but Chen Zikun's marksmanship was accurate, and the bullet hit the center of the eyebrows, these unlucky eggs were all killed on the spot, and the blood flowed all over the ground, and the soldiers of the Marshal's Mansion brought a basin of water to wash the blood stains on the street, and the owners of the tea houses and shops on the street were escorted away for interrogation.
Chen Zikun was escorted into the signing room of the Marshal's Mansion, and the guards tied him to a chair, full of old fists, don't look at the thin Guangxi people, but the fists are very hard, these people have practiced Wing Chun, and Chen Zikun is used as a target to beat, and he is bleeding profusely, his eyes are swollen, and his teeth are loose.
"Phew, that's it, come again!" Chen Zikun spat out a mouthful of bloody spit and roared angrily.
The guards were furious and were about to strike ruthlessly, when the adjutant came to convey the commander's order and led the prisoners through the court.
The guards set up Chen Zikun, carried him to the front of the handsome White Tiger Hall, and threw him on the ground with a thud, Chen Zikun opened his blood-soaked eyes and saw that everything in front of him was dyed red.
The stars of the generals in the hall twinkled, and a group of Guangxi generals surrounded Lu Rongting, like a hundred beasts embracing the tiger king.
"Say, who sent you to assassinate Ben Shuai?" Lu Rongting took a sip of the teacup, his tone was not high, but it was extremely majestic.
Chen Zikun sneered: "I want to kill you myself, why do I need to be sent by others." ”
The adjutant presented two pistols and bullets dug out of the car door and said, "Commander Qiqi, this is the bullet used by the murderer." ”
Lu Rongting glanced at it and asked the adjutant to forward it to other generals for viewing, and a certain general said: "I have seen this pocket pistol, it was given to Sun Wen by Chen Jiongming." ”
Lu Rongting nodded: "Hou Shengzi, how much money does Sun Wen give you?" ”
Chen Zikun said: "I said it, I want to kill you, and it has nothing to do with others." ”
"Dashuai, kill him!" The captain of the guard held the shell gun and shouted, his men suffered heavy casualties today, how could he swallow this breath.
The guards and horses also shouted together: "Dashuai, kill him!" ”
Lu Rongting grimaced and raised a hand.
There was silence below.
"Since you are not instructed by someone, then Ben Shuai has no grudge against you, why did you come to assassinate?" Lu Rongting asked.
Chen Zikun gritted his teeth and said: "How can you have no grudges and no hatred, you sent someone to assassinate my aunt, I am just a courtesy." ”
Lu Rongting frowned: "Who is your aunt?" ”
So far, Chen Zikun has nothing to hide, and immediately said: "My aunt is Yin Weijun, a Zhejiang heroine, who was assassinated by you in Shantou half a month ago, has your Excellency killed too many people and have forgotten?" ”
Lu Rongting sneered and said: "Since the beginning of the army, Ben Shuai has killed no less than 100 French soldiers, and he has not forgotten any of his lives, but Ben Shuai is above board, and he has always been an upright and upright killing, how can he say assassination?" ”
Chen Zikun said-for-tat: "Don't be ashamed, you dare to say that Cheng Biguang of the Navy did not die at your hands?" ”
Lu Rongting suddenly burst out laughing, and tears of laughter came out.
Chen Zikun was a little stunned, and he didn't know where his laughter came from.
Suddenly, Lu Rongting stopped laughing, and a frosty color appeared on his face.
"That's what Sun Wen told you, right? Hou Shengzi, you are too young, Cheng Biguang and Sun Wen have always had a bad relationship, and it was Sun Wen who assassinated Cheng, not me Lu Rongting! ”
Chen Zikun said: "Why should I believe you. ”
Lu Rongting said: "Whether you believe it or not, this is the case, Sun Wen not only assassinated Cheng Biguang, but Tao Chengzhang of the Restoration Society also died at his hands, even their Kuomintang Song Jiaoren was also assassinated by Sun Wen, this Sun Cannon, is really the first hypocrite in the world, he moved his mouth casually, there was a group of ignorant teenagers who killed people and set fire to him, hum, if you succeed today, my old Lu will also go with them." ”
Chen Zikun was struck by lightning, Lu Rongting was a rough old army leader, but the words that came out of his mouth were more credible, and he was not a big character, he couldn't deceive himself with rhetoric, could it be said that Tao Chengzhang did not die at the hands of traitors from the Restoration Society, but at the hands of revolutionary comrades-in-arms?
Mr. Sun Wen's warm smile and glorious image gradually became blurred in his heart.
People are afraid of losing their faith, Chen Zikun has been in contact with the revolution for a short time, and the education and edification he has received are only a handful.
A general next to him said: "Dashuai, this kid dares to offend Huwei, it is better to drag him to the street immediately and behead the public, so as to establish his authority." ”
A bunch of gold epaulettes agreed, Lu Rongting ignored them and asked: "Hou Shengzi, this handsome knife will not kill unknown people, report your name, and write on your tombstone." ”
"Just write about the Restoration Association Chen Zikun, his birthday is unknown, and he died today." Chen Zikun is also very free and easy.
Lu Rongting's eyes lit up, and he said to the general behind him: "Lao Chen, this kid is the same generation as you, is it your relative?" ”
The one he called Lao Chen was Chen Bingkun, the governor of Guangdong, and immediately smiled: "I don't have such relatives, where are you from?" ”
Chen Zikun said: "I am an orphan, I have no fixed residence, no place of origin. ”
"That's right." Chen Bingkun nodded, he was Lu Rongting's henchman, how could he not know the thoughts of the old boss, if it was an ordinary assassin, he would have ordered Yu Shi to be killed a long time ago, how could he spend so much time interrogating him, it seems that the handsome man has a heart for talent.
Thinking of this, he coughed dryly and said: "Dashuai, I think that Guangdong is a land of democracy, and there is no reason to kill people casually without a court trial, even if it is an assassin, it is appropriate to transfer it to the court for trial." ”
Lu Rongting looked around: "Ben Shuai thinks it's okay, what do you think?" ”
The generals said: "The handsome man is wise." ”
Chen Zikun was put down and put into prison, and Lu Rongting in the hall rubbed his calf and said with a wry smile: "This old bone is useless, and I almost saw the king of Hades today." ”
Chen Bingkun said: "The handsome auspicious star shines brightly, and the gods and Buddhas bless it, it must be fine." ”
Lu Rongting picked up a deformed mushroom-shaped bullet and said: "This kid really wants to kill me, and the tip of the bullet is broken, but he is still inexperienced, if he doesn't make a bomb, maybe he can really kill me, this processing, the bullet penetration is greatly reduced, and even the car door can't be penetrated." ”
Chen Bingkun said: "Since Sun Cannon wants to kill the handsome and then quickly, we might as well punish this person in a canonical manner, so as to set an example, and also let Sun Cannon sober up, whose territory is in Guangdong." ”
Lu Rongting said contemptuously: "The scholar rebelled, and it didn't work out in three years, Sun Cannon is just playing tricks and assassination, so let him stay in Shanghai and write a biography, as for this posterity, hum, it's a bit interesting." ”
Chen Bingkun said: "The handsome man is not the heart of acceptance, I heard that the revolutionary party is a tendon, and the white-eyed wolf who can't be raised." ”
Lu Rongting said: "It's not that I didn't have murderous intentions, if I asked him why he stabbed me, he said some high-sounding truths, I killed him immediately, but he said that he was avenging his relatives, which shows that the poisoning is not deep, and there is a sense of loyalty, plus his kung fu is good, if he uses it for his own use, it should be a material that can be made." ”
Chen Bingkun said: "Congratulations to the big handsome, you have accepted a tiger general." ”
Lu Rongting waved his hand: "It's still early, let's close it first, let him sober up." ”
……
Chen Zikun was taken to a house, where several guards pressed him to the ground and kicked him with his big leather shoes, kicking him so that he curled up motionless, his eyebrows were cracked, his ribs were broken, his face was bleeding, his eyes were swollen and he couldn't see clearly.
The adjutant, who had been smoking outside, walked in and said, "Okay, if you fight again, you will be killed, and it is not good to give an account to the commander." ”
The guards stopped stupidly, took a basin of water and poured it on Chen Zikun's head, and then dragged him out and threw him into the Shuai Mansion cell.
When Chen Zikun woke up from the coma, three days had passed, he opened his eyes and found that his body was wrapped in clean bandages, the blood stains on his face had been washed away, and the wounds were still covered with rubber plaster.
Looking around, the cell was cramped, with straw mats and pots, and a pot of wine and two dishes on the table.
"Is this the legendary guillotine?" Chan said.
"This is your prison meal." A cold voice came from the darkness.
