Chapter 8 The golden cicada sheds its shell and the camel

Zhao Zheng sat in front of the Heavenly King Palace, and heard a commotion in the distance, occasionally mixed with the sound of shouting and killing and fighting each other.

The source of the sound was Renhe Gate in the inner city of Bianliang, and it was from there that Zhao Kuangyin's army entered the city. The temple is located in the inner city, not far from the Ninwamon.

The Zhao family had already left under the escort of Chu Zhaofu, needless to say, they must have gone to see Zhao Kuangyin.

And ...... for yourself

Chu Zhaofu left behind thirty soldiers in front of the palace, which was called protection, but Zhao Zheng knew in his heart that this was surveillance and house arrest.

The reason is Zhao Yanran's question, until she left, the sharp sister was still staring at herself, and there was always a little vigilance in her doubtful eyes.

There is a reason why Zhao Yanran expressed this way, if she guessed correctly, the reason why the Zhao family believed in themselves before and stayed in Dingli Academy. It is likely that there was a misunderstanding, or maybe they thought they were here on the orders of Zhao Kuangyin.

From Zhao Yanran's reaction, it can be inferred that Zhao Kuangyin must have planned a mutiny, and his family should also know about it. This is also the reason why Zhao Yanran is calm and unfazed, and she also believes that her brother mutiny outside the city, it is impossible to ignore their safety, and should send someone to rescue them.

This person should be Chu Zhaofu, but he came late, and he played this role by mistake.

However, Chu Zhaofu didn't know Zhao Zheng, which made Zhao Yanran very puzzled, so she was suspicious.

Thanking herself for saving her life is secondary, and she is more concerned about how she is unpredictable.

If he wasn't a cronie of Zhao Kuangyin, how could he know about the mutiny tonight? And desperately protect his family?

It's obviously an unpredictable prophet, but who will believe it when you say it?

Without another plausible explanation, they are bound to wonder and then be wary of suspicion. Just imagine, there is a person who knows in advance that you are going to mutiny, and you are going to seek a usurpation, what a terrible thing?

If Zhao Zheng didn't rescue the Zhao family in Dingli Academy, but went to the little emperor and Prime Minister Fan Zhen first, what would be the consequences?

The reason for Zhao Yanran's vigilance and questioning is here, she is now going to see her brother Zhao Kuangyin, and the brother and sister will undoubtedly be more convinced after the exchange.

His appearance and behavior are very abrupt and strange!

Even if it is a life-saving grace for their family, Zhao Kuangyin has to be suspicious.

Once the emperor is concerned, let alone soaring, whether his life can be saved is a question. As for the grace of saving lives, hmph, holding the king of grace is the most stupid act, and it will only die faster.

At that time, the matter was urgent, and where did I think of so much, but now it is a big problem.

How to explain it?

Zhao Zheng was very helpless, obviously he was an unpredictable prophet, but he couldn't explain it, which was really nerve-wracking.

……

Chu Zhaofu came back soon and brought Zhao Kuangyin's edict, but he didn't let him enter the palace, nor did he arrest and interrogate.

But...... The scene is super revenant!

Belch......

Zhao Zheng was speechless, chanting excessively, how could this thing be! The former precept was a stupid melon, but he was a miscellaneous monk in the temple for three years, and he didn't understand the Buddhist scriptures at all. Zhao Zheng, who is reincarnated, doesn't understand it even more, but the emperor arranged such an errand for him!

There was no way, the holy decree could not be disobeyed, Zhao Zheng had no choice but to go hard, thinking about how to deal with the past.

"General Chu, dare to ask who is it for?" Zhao Zheng was puzzled by this.

Chu Zhaofu sneered: "It's the guy who burned the Qingxin Pavilion who tried in vain to burn His Majesty's family, but he was burned to death!" ”

"The hunchback? The ...... of the Guards Han Tong "

"That's right, Han Tong's eldest son is a hunchback, known as a camel, but he has a smart mind, but his heart is not right, and he has bad water in his stomach!" Chu Zhaofu smiled and asked, "The little master is in the Buddhist Gate, and he seems to know the imperial court very well!" ”

There is something in the words!

Zhao Zheng hurriedly said: "Where, it's just that there are a lot of dignitaries and nobles who went to the temple to offer incense in the past, so I've heard a few names." ”

"Really?" Chu Zhaofu smiled, didn't say anything more, and directly took Zhao Zheng to a fire in the inner city. This was originally the residence of Han Tong, the deputy commander of the Guards Division of the Later Zhou Forbidden Army, but now it has turned into a charred and black ruins.

As for his master, one has been decapitated, and the other is said to have become charred corpses......

……

……

Zhao Kuangyin mutinied at Chenqiaoyi, but it was not smooth sailing when he returned to the division and entered the city.

Coming back from Chenqiaoyi, the nearest road is to take the Chenqiao Gate on the northeast side of the outer city of Bianliang. However, when the army arrived, it was dusty, and the defenders of Chenqiaomen refused to open the door. At such a critical time, it was naturally impossible to storm it, so he had to make a detour to the west of Fengqiu Gate.

Fortunately, I finally entered the outer city, but I wanted to enter the inner city, but I went around in a big circle. Han Tong promptly ordered the inner city gate on the northwest side to be strengthened and guarded. Helpless, Zhao Kuangyin had to make a detour to Renhemen in the southeast, and Wang Xianqi had been waiting here for a long time.

Although Han Tong arrived in time, he was one step slower after all, and the soldiers and horses of the front division of the palace and the guard division fought fiercely, the front division of the palace won, and Zhao Kuangyin entered the city with a large army.

Han Tong was beheaded by the general Wang Yansheng, and was the only high-ranking official to die in the mutiny so far.

As for his eldest son Han Wei, he was stopped by Zhao Zheng by arresting Zhao Kuangyin's family in Dingli Academy, and when he saw Chu Zhaofu coming to escort him, he knew that he was hopeless and fled in a hurry.

After learning that his father was killed, Han Wei hurried home, intending to rescue his younger siblings, but was blocked in the house by Wang Yansheng. It is said that Han Wei did not want to be a prisoner, so he set himself on fire/burned, and when the body was found, it was burned beyond recognition.

After Zhao Kuangyin heard about this, he reprimanded Wang Yansheng and ordered the monks to be overtaken by the deceased Han family. The building near the water got the moon first, and this matter was spread out to the little master of the Dingli Academy.

When Zhao Zheng and Chu Zhaofu arrived, the fire had been extinguished, and the unburned wood was still emitting black smoke. The cold wind blew, raising smoke and dust all over the ground, and it was a little choking. Zhao Zheng walked over covering his nose and happened to see the soldiers carrying out several charred corpses.

Han Wei died, and Han Tong's other two older sons also died, but several younger children survived.

Killing the elder or not the young, Zhao Zheng didn't feel strange at all, as the only high-ranking official killed in the mutiny, Han Tong must have a reason to die, and it is fortunate that his children have not been completely cut off.

Chu Zhaofu said: "Master Qu Se chanted excessively, give them a ride first, and later the official family will bury the Han family and ceremoniously do things." ”

Alas! Zhao Zheng had nothing to say about this procedural imperial method, only a sigh.

When Zhao Zheng just wanted to pretend to chant the scriptures, his eyes fell on the rickety corpse, and his intuition told him that something seemed wrong.

"This is Han Wei's corpse?"

Chu Zhaofu glanced at Zhao Zheng suspiciously, and said lightly: "The obvious hunchback, naturally it's him!" ”

"No, it doesn't seem to be the right size!" As a lawyer, Zhao Zheng has a good memory and almost never forgets it. Although they only met tonight, Han Wei's hunchback image has been deeply rooted in his mind. Although it has been unrecognizable and unrecognizable, there seems to be a significant difference in body size.

Chu Zhaofu frowned, and asked, "You mean ......?"

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Zheng ordered the soldiers to break open the mouth and nose of the charred corpse, and when they saw that it was clean inside, he turned around and asked, "Are you sure Han Wei was burned to death?" ”

"Yes, the soldiers under General Wang Yansheng saw him light the fire with their own eyes......"

Without waiting for Chu Zhaofu to finish speaking, Zhao Zheng shook his head and said: "This corpse does not have a large amount of smoke and dust in its mouth and nose, which means that he did not breathe in the fire, and he should have lost his breath before entering the fire." ”

Zhao Zheng had read some forensic science books in his previous life, and he still had some understanding of these basic knowledge.

"You mean......" Chu Zhaofu looked at the other corpses suspiciously, and said firmly: "This, it is indeed self-immolation......

Zhao Zheng sneered in his heart, presumably Han Tong's other two sons were hacked to death and stuffed into the fire, but Han Wei ......

"General Chu, there are many ways for a person to commit suicide, hanging, self-killing, and taking poison, which is convenient, fast and less painful, but why did he choose to self-immolation? This is a relatively painful way to die! Zhao Zheng was suspicious in his heart.

Chu Zhaofu seemed to understand something, and muttered, "Could it be ......?"

Zhao Zheng said: "After the fire, as long as the hunchbacked corpse is found, people will subconsciously think that it is Han Wei. Han Wei is a hunchback, but is there only Han Wei on a hunchback? ”

"Golden cicada shelling?!" The two spoke almost in unison, saying the greatest possibility.

"So, the camel has fled?" This result caught Chu Zhaofu off guard and was quite tricky.

"How can a wise and vicious person judge himself? Father died, brother died, what do you think he wants to do most? ”

"Revenge!"

Hearing this, Zhao Zheng himself was taken aback, will there be himself on Han Wei's revenge list?

Chu Zhaofu hurriedly said: "No, you must report to the official's house and search for it!" ”

At this time, there was a general in front of the palace who came to pass the edict and summoned the color mage into the palace to see him!
