Chapter 531: Chongzhen's Revenge
Opportunities are often fleeting, and there was still hope of killing Zhang Ke just now, but in the blink of an eye, the White Lotus Sect had already been killed to the point that their parents were screaming and fleeing frantically. The opponent ran away, and those who were injured or intact all rushed up and scrambled to block in front of Zhang Ke.
It's not that these people are not afraid of death, but when they show loyalty, who dares to lag behind!
Only that woman was unwilling to give up, from Jiangnan to the capital, it was easy to wait for a second chance, and maybe there would be no more in the future. And the closest brother is dead, and no one can help him wholeheartedly!
"Zhang Ke, suffer death!"
The woman seemed to be crazy, and she rose vertically, relying on her body as light as a swallow, stepping on the shoulders of the person in front of her, like a frog jumping, and rushed straight at Zhang Ke.
It's close, it's close!
The distance between the two sides was only twenty paces, and the woman suddenly took out her crossbow and pointed it at Zhang Ke, and was about to shoot, when suddenly a javelin shot from behind, hitting the woman's shoulder.
The force of the javelin was beyond imagination, and the woman fell directly to the ground, the tip of the spear piercing through her body and deep into the square bricks on the ground.
"Good skills!" Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but admire.
Qiao Gui pursed his lips, his hands flew, and he pulled out five more javelins from behind his back, killing five White Lotus Sect bandits, and the rest of the people turned around and fled as if they had touched the king of Hades.
Qiao Gui was the first to rush into the encirclement and asked eagerly, "Lord Wang, are you okay?" β
"Hehe, just a thief can't hurt this king. Hurry up, consult the bandits, and put out the fire. β
"Yes!" Qiao Gui put his heart in his stomach, turned around and took his subordinates on a mission.
Behind Zhang Ke, more than 100 officials all breathed a sigh of relief, and they were grateful to Zhang Ke for surviving death. No one is a fool, if Zhang Ke only cares about fleeing for his life at the first time, he will not be in danger at all, and everyone can survive, all of them rely on King Anton. There are also Yizhou soldiers, the grace of saving lives, how ordinary is it!
Some people unconsciously looked at the direction of Qianqingmen, shook their heads slightly and sighed, feeling so desolate in their hearts.
Zhang Ke stepped in front of the female assassin, she was not dead, her body kept struggling, but the javelin pierced too deeply, and the more she moved, the more she bled from her shoulder. The faster the life force passes.
"Or don't struggle, do you want to be a ghost when you die?"
"You, what do you mean?" The woman struggled to squeeze a few words out of her throat.
Zhang Ke smiled and said: "It's not interesting, this king was assassinated by you twice, it can be regarded as fate, you might as well make a deal, you sue sΓΉ this king who is behind the scenes, this king will sue you and me if they are the real murderer." β
The woman raised her eyebrows and suddenly sneered.
"What. The little woman didn't kill you, God didn't help me, would I find the wrong enemy, you are too underestimated to be my aunt and grandmother! Ahem......" the woman said. A red liquid comes out of the corners of the mouth.
"Hahaha, there are too many stupid people in the world, and they don't know it when they become someone else's gun. Thou art in the eyes of this king. It's just an ant, it doesn't matter if you kill it or not, but the people behind it make this king very interested! β
"Giggles. Zhang Ke, my aunt and grandmother are going to die, don't you want to get any news out of my mouth, my aunt and grandmother can't kill you, naturally someone will kill you, they can't kill you, God! I will take you too! Received you!! β
The woman screamed continuously, blood spurted out from the corners of her mouth and nose, her body twitched a few times, and with infinite hatred, she died on the spot.
Zhang Ke smiled contemptuously, looked at the corpse of the big man not far away, and said, "Burn the two of them together, this kind of confused people die together, just let them stay confused." β
His subordinates dragged the body away according to Zhang Ke's instructions.
He Shixian stepped over and said in a low voice: "Yongzhen, if you dare to love in Songjiang, they will assassinate you, how can you let it go!" I think it should be broken bones and ashes, and daylilies should be peeled. He Shixian gritted his teeth.
"People don't die to make enemies, not to mention that they are just tools."
"Tools? Who is behind the scenes? Let Lao Tzu know that he will not destroy their nine clans! β
Zhang Ke wanted to speak, but at this time, many officials who had escaped by luck rushed over, and Zhang Ke could only whisper: "I'll talk about it later." β
Many ministers who had survived the dead fell to their knees one after another, and a large area of black pressure was pressed.
"Anton Wang is benevolent and righteous, and the soldiers of Yizhou are brave, if it weren't for the prince, we would all die at the hands of the rebels, we will thank the prince!"
can make a group of arrogant civil officials kowtow to Wufu, and Zhang Ke can be regarded as the first one.
"Everyone, please hurry up, this catastrophe is a catastrophe for the Ming Dynasty, and the top priority is to quickly count the losses and restore order."
Zhang Ke used the word catastrophe, which is not bad at all.
From the beginning of the Emperor's Palace, only about 20 ministers died, and more than 50 people died in the fire. When the White Lotus Sect bandits rushed in and killed until dusk, the number of people had exceeded one hundred and fifty, and the rest were no longer injured.
Even those who are not injured are more or less frightened, and don't want to do things if they don't recuperate for a while.
After this chaos, the three major halls were burned down, and almost one-third of the officials at all levels of the imperial court were killed or injured. The central mechanism of the Ming Dynasty completely collapsed, and the losses were simply incalculable.
There is no doubt that the culprit is the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian, and at this time, the nine-thousand-year-old ......
"It's over, it's all over!"
Wei Zhongxian hid in the toilet next to the noon gate, facing the dung pits, already crying and fainting. The outside has been guarded by the Yizhou soldiers, and they can't run out at all.
After a few hours, Gonggong Wei came to his senses completely, and he just didn't want to be tied up at first and let his cronies resist. But what happened next was completely out of control, and the White Lotus Sect was like a demon emerging from the ground. Wei Zhongxian couldn't figure out how the internal warriors he recruited could become like this.
"Who is it, who is it, who wants to assassinate our family, who can't get along with our family?" Lao Wei screamed frantically, stretched out his hand and kept grabbing his hair, tearing down one lock after another, with scalp and blood, and after a while, his head seemed to be gnawed by a dog.
"Uncle, uncle!" Wei Liangqing was so frightened that he screamed repeatedly.
"Uncle, it seems to be weak to shout and kill outside, let's run."
"Run, where to run, is there still a place for our family in the world?"
Wei Zhongxian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Wei Liangqing, and he didn't know where he got the strength. The sturdy man was like a little chicken, and he was mentioned to the edge of the pit by Lao Wei.
"Hahaha, run!"
As soon as his hands were loosened, Wei Liangqing fell directly into the pit, Lao Wei cried and laughed, and suddenly jumped down, shouting in his mouth: "Run, run!" β
β¦β¦
"Lord Wang, Wei Zhongxian has been caught." Du Qing said close to Zhang Ke's ear.
"Where did he go?"
"Toilet when we found him. and Wei Liangqing are rolling in the dung pit, fortunately, the weather is cold, the dung pit is frozen, if it is summer, maybe Wei Gonggong will drown, then he will really stink for 10,000 years! β
Du Qing said it easily, he didn't care much, what could be great about nine thousand years old, in the eyes of Yizhou soldiers. Except for the prince, everything else is dispensable air.
Zhang Ke frowned, and suddenly whispered: "Don't make a noise first, I'll see Wei Zhongxian alone." β
"Okay."
Du Qing hurriedly ran down to make arrangements. Just in the noon gate, I found a small duty room, and Wei Zhongxian, who was covered in dung and had a pungent stench, was brought in.
Zhang Ke sat inside. When he smelled the smell, he immediately frowned.
"Father-in-law Wei, we are also old friends. You don't need to pretend to be garlic, let's talk about it, if you have any last words, this king will try his best to help you do it. β
Hearing Zhang Ke's words, Wei Zhongxian was suddenly stunned, the flesh on his face kept twitching, and his breathing became heavier and heavier.
"Isn't it, say, isn't it you?" Wei Zhongxian pulled his throat and roared sharply.
Zhang Ke shook his head slightly: "Father-in-law Wei, to be honest, I'm ready to make a big deal out of it, is it the so-called not breaking or standing!" It's just that the people of the White Lotus Sect will definitely be more ruthless if I put them in, if I make a move! β
So far, it doesn't make much sense to conceal it, Zhang Ke told the truth. Wei Zhongxian's brows suddenly tightened, and the facial features on his face stretched for a while, and gathered for a while, not to mention how ugly it was. After a while, Wei Zhongxian sighed.
"Zhang Ke, our family can only sue you that the interception of military funds and the recruitment of new recruits for internal exercises are all related to the Yongfeng."
Yongfeng?
Zhang Ke wrote down the name, and a smile appeared on his face: "Father-in-law Wei, everyone says that people are dying and their words are good, and this king believes your words." Right now, you are pretending to be crazy and stupid, just to ask for a trace of mercy, but unfortunately, our new emperor is the least merciful, and I am afraid that your efforts will be in vain. β
Wei Zhongxian's face became more and more pale, he was a person who could be willing to give himself a knife, and he really didn't want to die until he had to. But they have all come to a dead end, what else can he do? Along the cheeks, two tears rolled down.
"Alas, I'm a good person to the end, come, give Grandpa Wei a bottle of Heding Red, let him die a little happier."
Zhang Ke said and turned to go out, and someone put the medicine bottle on the ground and asked Wei Zhongxian to take it for himself. Lao Wei smiled bitterly, held the medicine in his hand, and drank it cleanly with his neck up.
When it came into the stomach, it didn't feel hot, but a little drowsy.
"Zhang Ke, you dare to deceive our family, you, you don't have to die!"
That's right, Zhang Ke did deceive Lao Wei, and all he gave him was mandala medicinal wine.
At this juncture, Wei Zhongxian can never die, Chongzhen wants more face-saving people, that is, he would rather die than negotiate peace and move the capital!
Just ascended the throne and there was such a thing, if he didn't leave him a punching bag, I was afraid that Zhu Youzhen's classmates would have endocrine disorders.
Zhang Ke's guess was right, when the chaos was calmed down, the first assistant Wei Guangwei personally led the hundred officials, knelt at the Qianqing Gate, and asked the emperor for his guilt.
Chongzhen was finally willing to come out, and the first order was to investigate Wei Zhongxian's henchmen and let the six departments and Jiuqing report the eunuch party members.
Under the leadership of the cabinet, the list sent in the first round was immediately returned, and there were only two words on it: too little!
Then the second, the third, and it wasn't until the fourth that Emperor Chongzhen finally nodded.
In addition to Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family, there were six conspirators, 19 close servants, 35 rebel criminals, 15 Dai military prisoners, and 128 close servants......
There were a total of two hundred and fifty-eight people in seven categories, and the number of people was so large that it surpassed the civil and military forces who were killed and injured in the big fight, and the sky of the Chongzhen Dynasty was shrouded in blood...... (To be continued......)
