Xu Liang immediately objected loudly: "I don't agree!" Wen Ge Lao is taking the opportunity to take revenge! Before the facts are clear, I arrest people indiscriminately, and I don't accept it! ”

Wen Tiren snorted coldly and shouted: "Xu Liang, this is no longer a matter within your Shaanxi Province, but a matter of the entire Ming Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info You, as a local governor, don't have the right to say anything! ”

Xu Liang was speechless for a while.

The emperor nodded slowly when he heard this, and shouted: "Wen Aiqing is right! This time it must have something to do with the Zodiac Week! Spread the decree, Sona Zodiac Zhou is in prison! ”

Cao Huachun stood on top of the main hall, and when he heard this, he was overjoyed, and he responded loudly, so he threw his hand out of the main hall, and was busy arresting Huang Dao Zhou!

In the Jinluan Palace, all the ministers looked at the emperor, and Xu Guangqi, the second assistant of the cabinet, asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to continue the court push?" ”

The emperor was furious, displeased, and shouted: "There is such an ugly thing, what else to push!" Retreat! The emperor said, glared at Xu Liang with an unkind expression, and walked away.

The emperor left, and the ministers in the hall had no need to stay any longer, and left one after another. Many of me looked at Xu Liang with suspicion. Pointing behind your back.

However, Xu Liang couldn't care about these ministers anymore, and rushed out of the Jinluan Palace. Out of the main hall, looking at the other ministers below the third rank who were originally ordered to wait outside the hall, he didn't see the figure of Huang Daozhou.

Xu Liang was stunned and looked depressed, among the ministers, there were officials who were kind to Huang Daozhou when they saw that Xu Liang had come over, so they carefully and kindly reminded: "Lord Xu, Huang Daozhou has been captured by the people of Dongchang. ”

Xu Liang nodded, "Thank you." He did not stop any longer, hurried out of the palace, boarded the black carriage waiting outside the noon gate, and said without a word: "Go back." ”

Duan Zhigang saw Xu Liang's gloomy face, and he didn't see Huang Daozhou, who entered the palace together, come out, and knew that something big had happened, so he drove the carriage straight back to the Dongjiang Courtyard without saying a word.

The guards of the Dongjiang Courtyard saw that Xu Liang's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water, and they couldn't help but be frightened and silent. Xu Liang walked towards the study, and ordered to the Tsing Yi Wei behind him in a deep voice: "Call Tietou, Yan Qisu come to the study to see me." ”

The Tsing Yi guard behind him got the order, ran out, and went to find Tietou and Yan Qi.

After a cup of tea, Tietou and Yan Qi both hurriedly walked back, and the two entered Xu Liang's study together, seeing Xu Liang's calm face, sitting behind the desk, holding half a cup of tea in his hand, twisting it gently.

Tietou and Yan Qi sighed in their hearts, and asked cautiously, "My lord, how is the result of the court push?" ”

Xu Liang was silent, as if he hadn't heard. Yan Qi wanted to ask again, but he felt the iron head tugging at the corners of his clothes, signaling himself not to speak.

The two looked at Duan Zhigang on the side with inquiring eyes.

Duan stall head, what's the situation? The two seemed to ask.

Duan Zhigang spread out his hands blankly and shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.

With a soft sound, Xu Liang finally let go of the cup, raised his eyes to look at the three subordinates, and sighed lightly: "This court push, Huang Daozhou almost succeeded." ”

Almost succeeded, that is, not yet succeeded!

Tie Tou and the other three people's hearts tightened, and Yan Qi asked in shock, "My lord, what's wrong?" Could it be that the old Qianchai and the sixth man showed his horse's feet and stuffing in the process of divination? ”

Xu Liang shook his head lightly, also a little puzzled, and said in a deep voice, "There is no problem with Chai Lao Liu's performance, even I didn't find a problem with his method of adjusting the bag during the divination process, and other adults definitely couldn't find it." ”

"That'...... What went wrong? ”

Tietou, Yan Qi and Duan Zhigang were puzzled.

Xu Liang shook his head, "I haven't figured it out yet." The results of the court push have actually come out, and Zodiac Zhou won. It's just that at the critical moment when the emperor was about to announce, Cao Huachun, the eunuch of Dongchang, suddenly broke in and directly said that Wei Hong was fake. That's why our efforts have come to naught! ”

Tietou and the others' faces changed greatly, Tietou looked at it, and saw that there was no figure of Huang Daozhou, so he asked nervously: "Then, what about Huang Daozhou's people now?" ”

Xu Liang sighed helplessly, "Let the people from Dongchang arrest it." I don't know exactly where it was held. ”

After Xu Liang finished speaking, Tietou and the others gasped. Yan Qi said anxiously: "My lord, those people in Dongchang are ruthless, and Lord Huang will die if he falls into their hands." We've got to get the zodiac out as soon as possible. ”

Duan Zhigang also nodded in agreement: "Yes, my lord, the torture of Dongchang is not inferior to that of Jinyiwei, and Lord Huang is a scholar, I'm afraid he can't afford that kind of torture." The time has dragged on for a long time, and even if they are rescued, the person is basically crippled! ”

Xu Liang's face was gloomy, he raised his eyes to stare at the three subordinates in front of him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Yan Qi, you mobilize the chess pieces of the Jingshi Qingyi Guard, find out the location where Huang Daozhou was imprisoned as soon as possible, and check again, how did Dongchang find out that Wei Hong was a fake." Tietou, you go out of the city, tell Dai Feng about the situation here, let him be prepared, and then let Dai Feng send 500 capable men to lurk into the city for backup. Duan Zhigang, the defense of the Dongjiang Courtyard has been raised to the highest level, anyone who dares to break in will be killed on the spot! ”

Tietou, Yan Qi, and Duan Zhigang each took their own orders and walked out with serious faces.

Xu Liang stayed alone in the study, holding his forehead, and began to think hard about what went wrong. Chai Lao Liu was a veteran who was temporarily discovered by Xu Liang after entering Beijing, and once Chai Lao Liu agreed to cooperate with him, Chai Lao Liu stayed in the Dongjiang Courtyard and had no contact with outsiders at all. As for the eunuch Luo Bing, Xu Liang believed that under the dual threat of money and life, Luo Bing had no reason to betray himself.

Moreover, Luo Bing took Chai Lao Liu into the palace, and he has been under his own monitoring, except for being stopped by Liu San, the third stall head of the East Factory, when he entered the noon gate, he was embarrassed for a while, and there was no abnormality.

In Xu Liang's mind, the plan that should have been foolproof was at the most critical juncture, so that the East Factory found out the problem!

If you are not careful, you will lose the whole game! Xu Liang couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

However, now is not the time to sigh, Luo Bing and Chai Lao Liu were arrested, their lives Xu Liang can not care, but Huang Daozhou is closely following his descendants, from the time Xu Liang first arrived in Shaanxi when he was the original governor of the county, he followed him closely, his life, Xu Liang must not give up.

Xu Liang walked around the study irritably, thinking of ways to rescue Huang Daozhou over and over again in his mind. Now that Huang Daozhou has fallen into the hands of Dongchang, if he wants to save him, he can only take the official route except for violently killing him to save people. However, after thinking about it for a while, Xu Liang couldn't help but find that since he and the emperor swore poisonous oaths to each other, the ministers in the court kept more respect for him. Xu Guangqi, the only one who has a good relationship, has been deliberately estranged a lot for a while, and from the court, it seems that when Xu Guangqi chooses between the emperor and himself, he will not hesitate to choose Emperor Chongzhen.

When Xu Liang thought about it, he broke off his mind of asking Xu Guangqi to come forward.

However, before Jingshi Qingyiwei found out the exact news, Xu Liang could only pray that Luo Bing and Chai Laoliu had hard bones and enough courage to clench their teeth and not open their mouths.

The edict in Dongchang is more gloomy than the yamen in Dongchang, and the edict prison is full of humidity all year round. Now the number of guards inside and outside the Dongchang has increased by several hundred, and Cao Huachun, the governor of the Dongchang factory, ordered Liu San, the head of the third stall, to personally lead people to sit in the Dongchang Imperial Prison and send additional manpower to prevent the prisoners inside from failing.

The interrogation of Huang Daozhou lasted two hours, and Cao Huachun did not get the slightest useful clue from him. Then he interrogated Luo Bing, Luo Bing, the eunuch, was also hard-hearted, and let Dongchang Fanzi's cowhide whip keep whipping, Luo Bing insisted on a little bit over and over again, Wei Hong was a fake, and he didn't know it at all! also went out of the palace with Wei Hong, and then they separated, but they just happened to enter the palace together. Besides, he and Wei Hong are not particularly familiar, how can he pay attention to the difference in Wei Hong's appearance before and after?!

Cao Huachun saw that Luo Bing was dead and did not confess, so he cleaned up Luo Bing fiercely, and beat a good white and chubby eunuch to the point of dying, and he stopped when he was not in human form.

In the middle of the night, Cao Huachun and Liu San casually ate a plate of dumplings to fill their bellies, so Cao Ci cheered up and interrogated the fake Wei Hong and Chai Lao Liu.

First of all, Liu San, the head of the third gear, was in charge of the interrogation, threatening and intimidating, and broke a whip, although Chai Lao Liu was knocked unconscious twice, this person was also very tough and didn't say anything.

Liu San was so angry that he couldn't unload Chai Lao Liu.

A basin of water woke Chai Lao Liu from his coma again, Liu San didn't have a trick, panting heavily, staring at Chai Lao Liu with murderous eyes.

"Third master, you can't fight anymore, if you continue to fight, this person will have to be killed." Seeing Liu San raising his whip again, the Dongchang fan beside him couldn't help but remind him carefully.

"It's good to be dead!" Liu San aired. However, this is angry after all, and at the critical juncture of the investigation, this fake Wei Hong is also a very important witness, and he can't be killed easily.

At this time, Cao Huachun, the supervisor of Dongchang Factory, who was leaning on the chair and closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, slowly opened his eyes, paced in front of Chai Lao Liu, looked at Chai Lao Liu, nodded slowly, and even had some appreciation in his tone.

"You're smart, and your bones are a little hard! A small person can be like this, since our family took charge of the East Factory, it is rare. Cao Huachun said slowly.

Chai Lao Liu raised his eyes, spit out blood and broken front teeth, took a sip, and grinned: "Although I am just a small person, I also know the name of Dongchang." In your hands, there will be death left and right! It's just that I know more or less that if I confess, I will die faster, but if I bite and don't say anything, you may not kill me! Lao Tzu has a cheap life, and it is a while to be able to live for a while! ”

When Cao Huachun heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, "You said it well, and you saw it very thoroughly." Meet our Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the East Factory! What is your name? ”

Chai Lao Liu was slightly surprised, "You are the supervisor of the East Factory?" ”

Cao Huachun nodded.

Chai Lao Liu said: "If you can die in the hands of the superintendent of the Tangtang East Factory, Lao Tzu will not lose." ”

"Tell us, your name?"

Chai Lao Liu grinned, rolled his eyes, and exclaimed, "Guess! ”

"Bastard! Dare to talk to the factory supervisor like this! Liu San, the third-gear head on the side, jumped like thunder and shouted angrily.

Cao Huachun sighed deeply, then looked at Chai Lao Liu with pity, and said slowly: "Since you don't say it, then our family won't ask." Let's call you a fake Wei Hong. Fake Wei Hong, you just said that if you just don't say anything, maybe you can live longer? Alas, this may be true for others. But for you, it's the opposite! If you don't say it, if you anger our family, you will only die faster. ”

Chai Lao Liu glared, "You are talking nonsense!" ”

"Our family is serious." Cao Huachun looked at Chai Lao Liu seriously with a heartfelt expression, and said: "If you are a person like Luo Bing and Huang Daozhou, then it is indeed as you guessed, not to mention it, although our family is angry in our hearts, we also have many scruples about killing you!" After all, Huang Daozhou is the imperial history of the Imperial Palace, and the official rank is from the fourth grade, and behind him stands Xu Liang, the governor of Shaanxi. Luo Bing has been in the palace for many years, and he was born as a celebrant eunuch, and he can talk to several eunuchs in the palace, our family is also a eunuch, but I don't want to offend a certain eunuch in the palace in order to kill a Luo Bing! It's a pity that you're not like them! You're just a pawn of the people behind the scenes, a little person who can be discarded at any time! You have no family background, no background, and no strong backstage! We're going to kill you, but it's no trouble at all! Don't worry about offending people, and don't worry about getting revenge. Besides, since you are just a chess piece, the information you know must be very limited, and the use value is not very great for our family. ”

Chai Lao Liu's eyes moved, and he sneered: "You don't want to lie to me." I know who the Lord has served! You don't dare to kill me. ”

Cao Huachun smiled disappreciatively, "You can think so." But we really need to tell you that what we say is the truth. ”

"I don't believe it!" Chai Lao Liu shook his head.

Cao Huachun said coldly: "You will soon believe it." Our family has recently researched a new punishment, which is called Spicy Thousand Knives! Cao Huachun gestured with both hands on Chai Lao Liu's body, his eyes were glowing with bloody red, and he said faintly: "You should have heard of this kind of torture with a thousand knives, right?" Our spicy thousand knives are somewhat similar to chopping, that is, let people cut a thousand knives on your body, one by one, three hundred knives on the first day, and then sprinkle with chili water, and then another three hundred knives one day, also sprinkle with chili water, and then do so on the third day, and if the person is not dead on the fourth day, then make up the last hundred knives...... Hehe, since our family invented this punishment, we have only tried it on two people, and both of them died after three days. You are lucky to be the third person to receive this punishment! Honestly, we're looking forward to your performance. ”

Cao Huachun said quietly, Chai Lao Liu heard it, and he shivered with excitement. This kind of torture, even listening to it, is uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Cao Huachun was very satisfied with the effect of his words, he squatted down, gently patted Chai Lao Liu's bloodstained face, and said with a grin: "That's it for tonight, you can rest and be ready to take three hundred knives tomorrow." ”

Chai Lao Liu looked at Cao Huachun in horror. (To be continued.) )
