"Deputy Chief Supervisor of the Military Department of the Royal Army, Replacement of the Third Rank Jinghai Marquis, Zhang Jun, just for Liu Thief's reward, you want to put me and Zhongqing surrounded by thieves and captured here? You, you've disappointed me so much, you've disappointed me so much. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 As soon as Kwon Bangyan's words fell, Zhao Gou immediately raised his head to look at Zhang Jun, and said angrily and sadly.

Without stopping and not giving Zhang Jun a chance to argue, Zhao Gou threw the secret letter to the ground and shouted loudly: "Come on, take Zhang Jun and me." If he dares to communicate with foreign countries and sell his lord for glory, I will destroy his nine clans. ”

"Your Majesty thinks twice."

Before Zhao Gou's holy edict was spoken, one of the ministers stood up and shouted: "Zhang Jun's illicit affair with the Northern Dynasty is an unforgivable crime." However, he had made great achievements in the past in our dynasty, and if His Majesty beheaded him all over the house, it would probably make the morale of the army even more sluggish. The minister asked His Majesty to withdraw Zhulian's edict, and only beheaded him and the daughter of Namengji, in order to show magnanimity and stability of the army. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

After one person finished pleading for intercession, another person also flashed out of the court, and said loudly: "Today's plan is not to punish the internal thief, the thief has a very high prestige in the army, and the minister thinks that this matter should not only be used to kill a hundred people, but also to do things to win the hearts of the army and show His Majesty's magnanimity." Therefore, it is certain that His Majesty will take back Zhulian's order and only cure the crimes of Zhang Thief and Meng. ”

Who is it? Dare to stand up and intercede for Zhang Jun at such a time?

Quan Bangyan and Li Gang heard that these two guys stood up to intercede for Zhang Jun at such a juncture, how did they react?

After these two people stood up and said their respective words, Li Gang and Quan Bangyan did not look back at the two people who spoke, and their faces did not show the slightest displeasure.

This reaction surprised Zhao Gou, but he still looked at the two intercessors and said with a righteous demeanor: "Yang Hun, Chen Jue, the severity of Zhang Thief's crime is comparable to the death of the country, you two dare to intercede for him, could it be that you have colluded with him?" Or did you get a private relationship with him? ”

Yang Hun and the Ministry of Industry of the Southern Dynasty, Chen Juan and King Kang are the books of the Criminal Department in the ******.

In Zhao Gou's eyes, Yang Hun and Chen Juan are both Li Gang's henchmen, and he can't understand why these two people would sing against Li Gang in this situation to intercede for Zhang Jun. So when he was speaking, Zhao Gou glanced at Li Gang sitting on the rattan chair out of the corner of his eye.

Just when Zhao Gou aimed at him, Li Gang stood up tremblingly from the rattan chair with his body propped up.

Bowing slightly to Zhao Gou, Li Gang said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Thief is hateful, but his family has followed him all the way from Bashu to Jinghu, from Jiangxi to Liangzhejiang. Most of his remaining family members are female dependents and have no heirs. The old minister also thought that he should not be treated with such a move, otherwise it would make it more difficult for the military spirit of our army to be stable. ”

"Yes, the minister also thinks that Zhang Thief should be punished, and his family can not be killed." After Li Gangcai finished speaking, Quan Bangyan also stepped forward and saluted, and said loudly: "Now most of the soldiers of our army have come to this big island with their families, if Your Majesty you kill Zhang Thief and then punish his clan, I am afraid that the soldiers will be afraid and hatred in their hearts, which will be extremely unfavorable to our army's future wars." ”

Most of the soldiers of King Kang's army who fled to Liuqiu Island came with their families. Killing Zhang Jun and destroying him at the same time, Zhao Gou also understood that it would indeed cause turmoil in the hearts of the army.

Now the 240,000 troops on the island are the only last capital he relies on to survive, and Zhao Gou naturally does not dare to risk angering the whole army for Zhang Jun alone.

Seeing that the four ministers he relied on came to intercede together, Zhao Gou lowered his head and quickly figured out the various benefits.

After thinking about it, when he looked up again, he said, "Okay, since the four Qing families interceded for him, I forgave him for the sin of Zhulian." But the thief must be executed with a heavy punishment, otherwise he will not be able to quickly destroy his heart and intimidate everyone's heart. I have decided to sentence him to death. ”

Chopping was officially known as Ling Chi Zhi in the laws of the Song Dynasty. The torture was carried out by stripping the prisoner of his clothes and tightly strangling him with a fishing net, so that pieces of his flesh and skin protruded from the mesh.

The executioner held a very thin and sharp knife and cut it thinly, until he cut one hundred and twenty knives until he died. Sometimes the prisoner's skin and flesh are exhausted, but the breath is still alive, and the heart is still beating slightly between the skeletons.

This kind of punishment of the emperor who was slightly abbreviated and embellished by the emperor and Ling Chi was mainly set up for those who had committed "great rebellion" and "rebellion" such as rebellion, rebellion, and "verbal rebellion". In other words, Ling Chi was mainly used to execute ****** who endangered the interests of the feudal ruling class.

The execution method of "Ling Chi" is to cut the prisoner into pieces and make him die in extreme pain, so that those heroes who claim that "their heads have fallen off but have a big scar" want to die quickly but can't, so as to play a certain deterrent effect......

Zhao Gou wanted Zhang Jun to be cut by a thousand knives, but Li Gang, Quan Bangyan, Chen Juan and Yang Hun saw it in the letter brought by Liu Xing's secret envoy, Liu Xing didn't want Zhang Jun to really die, but wanted to catch him and send him to Bianjing.

When the four of them heard that Zhao Gou was going to cut Zhang Jun with a thousand knives and sentence Ling Chi, they immediately lowered their heads and made quick eye contact with their eight eyes.

"Never, never."

After the four of them made eye contact, Chen Juan looked up at Zhao Gou and said urgently: "The punishment is too cruel, and now the situation in our dynasty cannot be tortured to intimidate people, but can only gather the hearts of the army with virtue." If His Majesty really tortures and executes Zhang Thief, I am afraid that it will still cause unstability in the morale of the army, and even make Zhang Thief's old troops angry and change! ”

"Yes, yes! Your Majesty must not make such a heavy punishment, otherwise it will arouse great dissatisfaction among the old Zhang thief and may cause a sharp increase in incidents! As soon as Chen Juan's voice fell, Yang Hun immediately echoed.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are wronged, I am really wronged!"

It was just when Chen Juan and Yang Hun were talking that Zhang Jun, who had been detained by the two forbidden soldiers, came back to his senses. As soon as he came to his senses, he immediately cried out loudly.

After struggling after the injustice, Zhang Jun looked at Zhao Gou and shouted: "Your Majesty, since serving the imperial court, the minister has never communicated privately with the Liu thief of the Northern Dynasty. Today's events are all due to the strategy of the ministers, Li Gang and Quan Bangyan are afraid that they are really the Northern Dynasty that Liu thief bought and hidden in my court! Your Majesty is aware and must not be blinded by traitors, the minister is really loyal to you, and there is no traitor! ”

When others intercede for him, he bites back.

When Zhao Gou'er heard and saw Zhang Jun doing such a thing, his face turned blue with anger, and he glared at him and shouted loudly: "You thief dare to shout to catch a thief, do you really think that I am a dumb king, I don't know who is loyal to me?" Someone came, escorted him down, and in the afternoon he was shown to the public in front of the army. Whoever says more will be guilty of the same sin as him, and he will be cut off and will not be tolerated. (To be continued.) )
