Chapter 462: Arrest them all
After getting off the city wall and walking along the street, Liu Wei saw a group of tiger guards in front of him, wearing red armor and snow-white feathers on their helmets, trembling slightly as they ran, holding blades and shields, and running quickly in one direction in the city.
Seeing those tiger guards, Liu Wei turned his head and glanced at Guan Qing on the side, accompanied by Guan Qing, led more than a dozen Yu Lin guards, and quickly followed a team of tiger guards, walking towards the street where two groups of people were fighting.
On a relatively wide street in the city, twenty or thirty bare-handed Yulin guards and dragoons were surrounded by the tiger guards who had just arrived.
The twenty or thirty Yulin guards and dragoons who led them to fight each other were the two officers who were outside Handan City and almost got into a fight.
The Yu Linwei and Dragoon Guards who participated in the fight did not carry blades, and they only slapped their fists during the fight, and the two groups of people were equal in number, judging from the injuries of both sides, this fight was quite tragic, especially on Yu Linwei's side, all of them were covered with colors and their faces were covered with blood, and they obviously suffered a big loss.
Twenty or thirty Yulin guards and dragoons, who were still stained with blood, were surrounded by hundreds of tiger guards, and the fight had stopped. Although the two sides had stopped fighting, they still glared at each other with resentment on their faces.
"Arrest them all!" One of the Tiger Guards officers pressed the hilt of his sword in his hand, strode out of the Tiger Guard's ranks, raised his other hand, pointed at the people involved in the fight, and shouted.
"Birds!" Dozens of tiger guards held their blades, and they were about to step forward, and the Yulin Guard and the Dragoon Guard officers, who were still fighting with each other just now, took a step forward in unison, and the Dragoon Guard officers glared angrily at the Tiger Benwei officers who gave the order, and scolded with a very arrogant expression: "Damn, the Tiger Benwei has only been established for a few days, and you dare to take care of Lao Tzu's affairs?" ”
"Get out! Get lost! Get lost! As soon as the dragoon guard officer scolded, the Yulinwei officer who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face also scolded: "Who dares to arrest Lao Tzu?" ”
The Tiger Benwei was established later than the Yulin Guard and the Dragoon Guard, and although they enjoyed the same treatment as the two earlier teams, in front of the officers and soldiers of these two teams, the Tiger Benwei did not dare to hold it up.
"I dare!" Just as the dozens of tiger guards who stepped forward stopped and turned their heads to look at the officers behind them, they didn't know whether to continue, a voice came from outside the crowd.
As the voice fell, Liu Wei led Guan Qing and more than a dozen Yu Linwei to stride out from behind the crowd, wrinkling his brows and looking at the group of people who were surrounded in the middle, their faces covered with blood due to the fight, and shouted to the Tiger Benwei officer who led the troops: "All tied up!" ”
Liu Wei suddenly appeared, completely beyond the expectations of the two groups of people who were fighting with each other, and at the moment when they were still stunned, the Tiger Benwei officer waved his hand, and dozens of Tiger Benwei immediately rushed forward, kicking the Yu Linwei and Dragoon Guards who participated in the fight to their knees, and tied them one by one with hemp ropes.
"Escort to the official mansion, and this king will deal with it personally!" Staring at the twenty or thirty Yulin guards and dragoons who were tied up like zongzi, Liu Wei coldly shook off a sentence and turned to leave.
"Let's go!" The Tiger Benwei officer, who was almost stopped by the two officers who led the fight before, only felt his whole body lifted at this time, walked up to the two officers who were tied up and knelt on the ground, muttered, and said to the two: "Hu Benwei Xinjian, I can't compare to the brothers, brothers, don't embarrass me!" ”
Liu Wei personally gave the order, and the people who were tied up, where did they dare to be half dissatisfied, one by one they lowered their heads, were picked up by the tiger guards, and walked towards the direction of the official mansion.
"What is Your Highness going to do with them?" Following Liu Bian, Guan Qing, who left first, saw Liu Bian walking in front with a pale face, and asked Liu Bian in a low voice.
"If you connive at your own brothers' private fighting, private fighting will definitely become common in the army in the future!" While walking forward, Liu Wei said with endless helplessness in his tone: "I'm afraid I want to make an example of ......."
"Your Highness......" Liu argued that he wanted to make an example of him, Guan Qing said with some reluctance: "But they all fought with His Highness......"
"Needless to say!" Before Guan Qing finished speaking, Liu Wei raised his hand to stop her words, sighed and said: "The state has national law, and the army has military discipline!" This matter is categorically incondoned! ”
Following behind Liu Wei, walking briskly towards the official mansion, Guan Qing's expression always had a trace of unbearability.
Walking to the main gate of the official mansion, Liu Wei raised his feet and crossed the threshold, and Guan Qing, who was following him, said to Liu Wei again with some hesitation: "Can Your Highness be extrajudicially merciful?" ”
"Qing'er really wants to intercede for them?" As soon as one foot crossed the threshold, hearing Guan Qing's words, Liu Wei stopped, turned his head to look at Guan Qing, frowned slightly, and said in a tone that was rarely indifferent to Guan Qing: "Don't you know how serious this matter is?" ”
"Qing'er doesn't dare!" From Liu Wei's expression, Guan Qing saw a little dissatisfaction, hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed, and whispered with a little anxiety: "Qing'er just feels that this matter only needs to severely punish the leading two, and the others can be ......punished with a small punishment."
Stepping into the threshold with one foot, Liu Wei turned his head to look at Guan Qing with a cold face, and after a while, he turned around, entered the official mansion without a sound, and walked straight towards the front hall of the official mansion.
Looking at the back of Liu Wei leaving, Guan Qing's mood became more and more worried. Since she met Liu Bian, she had never seen Liu Bian so indifferent to her.
The dozen or so Yu Linwei who followed behind Guan Qing also lowered their heads at this time, as if they were the ones involved in the fight.
Standing at the door of the official mansion, seeing Liu Wei's figure disappear into the front hall, Guan Qing lowered his head and pursed his lips, then stepped into the courtyard and followed the front hall.
It didn't take long for a group of tiger guards to come to the official mansion surrounded by the twenty or thirty dragon riders and Yulin guards who were tied up like zongzi.
Although the officers of the Dragoon Guard and the Yulinwei spoke very arrogantly before, and the Tiger Benwei who carried out the mission was somewhat dissatisfied with them in their hearts, but because they were both subordinate to the Luoyang Army, the soldiers of the Tiger Benwei did not embarrass them too much.
Guarding the official mansion was a team of Yulin guards on duty, seeing more than a dozen Tongze and a team of dragoons escorted to the front hall of the official mansion by the tiger guards, the Yulin guards in the courtyard were all dumbfounded, not knowing what was happening.
Liu Wei had already sat down in the hall, and Guan Qing was already standing behind him, just waiting for the prisoner to be escorted.
Seeing that twenty or thirty troublesome dragoon guards and Yu Linwei were escorted into the front hall, Guan Qing looked at Liu Wei with a little worry on his face, and hoped that Liu Wei would remember some old feelings, and he didn't really want to kill all these officers and soldiers.
"Your Highness, the prisoner has arrived!" The officer who led the Hu Benwei to send people entered the hall, stepped forward, bowed with fists in his fists, and reported to Liu Bianyu.
Waving his hand at the Tiger Guard, Liu Wei furrowed his brows tightly and looked around at the people who were being tied.
"Poof", just as Liu Wei looked around at everyone, the officer who led a group of dragoons to make trouble bent his legs and knelt on the ground.
When the officer knelt on the ground, Guan Qing, who was standing behind Liu Wei, suddenly showed a look of distress on his face. Guan Qing, who is very familiar with Liu Wei, knows that if the officer has some backbone, maybe he can still be saved, but if he kneels like this, even if he doesn't want to die, I'm afraid it will be difficult.
Sure enough, seeing the officer kneeling, Liu Wei frowned tightly, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched violently twice.
"Your Highness!" Kneeling on the ground, the dragoon guard officer walked forward a few steps on his knees, looked up at Liu Bian, and said to Liu Bian: "The two of us are fighting privately, and the crime deserves death, the brothers just met by chance, and they don't know why they are fighting." It's just that when I saw me waiting for a scuffle, I stepped forward to help the fist! The villain is willing to be punished, and I implore His Highness to spare the brothers from death! ”
When the dragoon guard officer said such a thing, Liu Bian's gloomy face looked a little better, and before he could speak, the Yulinwei officer on the side also knelt on the ground with a "poof", and said to Liu Bian: "I beg Your Highness to spare the brothers, the villain is willing to apologize with death!" ”
Two officers knelt down, and twenty or thirty soldiers whose upper bodies were tightly bound by hemp ropes also knelt down, and one of the dragoons raised his face and looked at Liu Bian, tears in his eyes were already rolling down, and said to Liu Bian: "We have violated military discipline, and we know that we will die, and I beg Your Highness to surrender to the crime, and we are willing to ......go with the two centurions."
"What?" Seeing that everyone knelt in a black and pressed group, Liu Wei frowned, but his face was not as cold as before, and he asked everyone lightly: "Are you waiting like this, do you want to blackmail this king?" ”
As soon as Liu Wei said this, twenty or thirty people closed their mouths together, raised their heads one by one, and looked at Liu Wei.
Looking around at the people kneeling in the hall, Liu Wei did not let them get up. Guan Qing, who was standing behind Liu Wei, saw that he didn't let the kneeling people stand up, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword couldn't help but loosen up.
It wasn't until she loosened her fist twice that Guan Qing realized that her palms were already covered with sweat.
Kneeling in the hall, looking up at Liu Bian, seeing that Liu Bian just looked at them and didn't speak again, the dragoon guard officer licked his lips, bent down and knelt on the ground, his words were a little choked, and said to Liu Bian: "Your Highness wants to kill me, we don't dare to survive, I only hope Your Highness, I will return to Luoyang in the future, please leave some virtue for my brothers, tell my family, we are waiting for the battlefield......"
At this point, the Dragoon Officer could no longer bear it anymore and sobbed in a low voice.
As he sobbed, the others kneeling on the side knelt down one by one, and shouted in unison: "I beg Your Highness, inform me and my family, we are waiting for the battlefield to die!" ”
Twenty or thirty men knelt on the ground and wept silently, and Guan Qing, who was standing behind Liu Bian, also had red eyes, pursed his lips tightly, and turned his head to look at Liu Bian.
Sitting behind the low table, looking at the people kneeling together with hemp ropes tied to their upper bodies, Liu Wei did not express his position immediately.
He reached out and picked up the teacup on the low table and played with it in his hand. The delicately textured pottery tea cup is very comfortable to the touch, as smooth as rubbing a piece of silk.
Liu Wei didn't speak, and everyone in the hall was very nervous. Twenty or thirty of the negligent dragoons and Yu Linwei had already prepared to die, and all they were worried about was that Liu Wei would tell their families in the future that they had been beheaded by their own people.
And Guan Qing thought differently from them, what Guan Qing was worried about was that her feelings were wrong, and Liu Wei finally executed these soldiers who had made contributions to the Luoyang Army!
