Chapter 432: The Enemy Head That Can't Be Killed
He Junyi saw the person coming down from the carriage at a glance, but it was his usual friend He Mingtang, that was the grandson of Xiao Taishi, Xiao Huaijin's son, Xiao Mingtang had a strange expression at this time, and was looking at him from a distance.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a face, which was quite pretty, but at the moment it was pale and tight, and a pair of eyes were extremely red, it was Xiao Mingtang's sister Xiao Mingmei.
Xiao Mingmei looked at He Junyi, who had become a prisoner, and gritted her silver teeth, tears flowed down again.
Anyway, He Junyi has been playing with her since she was a child, and for more than ten years, her relationship is also very deep, although sometimes she feels that this cousin is too pestering, but now she has been sentenced to death and will be cut off at any time, how can she not be sad.
He Junyi stopped his steps, looked at Xiao Mingmei in the car blankly, suddenly sighed, and lowered his head.
A royal soldier next to him put a spear on his back and shouted, "Don't go quickly!" ”
Xiao Mingtang finally walked up quickly and scolded the Imperial Forest Army: "Dog, what are you urging? Rushing to reincarnate? ”
The Imperial Forest Army turned his head and was about to get angry, but when he saw Xiao Mingtang dressed in a luxurious brocade robe, with fine skin and tender meat, although he didn't know for a while that this was the eldest son of the Xiao family, he also knew that it was an official eunuch, so he didn't scold, just frowned and said: "This young master, this is all a violation of the imperial court, a big rebellion, and he will be escorted to the prison of the Criminal Department...... Young master, it's better not to cause trouble! ”
He Junyi turned his head and cried with a sad face: "Big cousin, you ...... You help me plead with my grandfather so that he can save my life!" ”
He Junyi's grandfather is naturally Mrs. Xiao.
At this moment, a commander of the Imperial Forest Army came up from behind, and when he saw Xiao Mingtang, he knew each other, and hugged his fists: "Young Master Xiao!" ”
Xiao Mingtang said: "I want to have a few words with him!" ”
Na Dutong frowned, stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Young Master Xiao, these are all violations by the imperial court, and they are committing a major crime of rebellion...... Young Master Xiao still don't have anything to do with them, I'm afraid that the Grand Master will be unhappy when the time comes! ”
This person is obviously also related to the Xiao family, so he whispered to dissuade him.
Xiao Mingtang looked at He Junyi, who was pitiful and desperate, hesitated, turned back and looked at his sister in the car, his eyes rippled with tears, and he said in a low voice: "I'll just say a few words to him!" ”
He was naturally worried that this matter would be known to Master Xiao, and at this time, it was naturally best not to get involved with the He family.
But he thinks that he is the eldest young master of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family is powerful and powerful, even if it is known that he is here, as long as he is not known by Master Xiao, he is not afraid.
Seeing that Xiao Mingtang's attitude was quite resolute, he finally nodded and said, "Young Master Xiao should be faster, it will not be good to be seen by outsiders!" He Junyi was called out of the crowd.
He Junyi lost his soul, stood in front of Xiao Mingtang, and said pitifully: "Big cousin, does my grandfather know that I am going to be killed?" ”
Xiao Mingtang nodded: "I know, but ...... My sister and I begged Grandpa, but ...... But I was scolded by my grandfather! ”
These gentlemen naturally don't understand the political situation, the He family at this time, the evidence is conclusive, God can't save it, except for the Xiao family, other families and the royal family are definitely going to put the He family to death.
Of course, Taishi Xiao understands that at this point, the He family has finished playing, and even if the Xiao family pays a great price, it will be impossible to recover, so at this time, not only will he not help, but he will also try his best to clear up some relationships, so as not to affect the Xiao family.
After all, the other major families are eyeing this matter, and once they are really caught by other families, it will definitely bring a lot of trouble to the Xiao family.
At this time, Taishi Xiao could only sit idly by, and even participated in the purging of the He family.
He knew that his daughter and grandson would be implicated in this purge, but for the sake of the future of the Xiao family, he could only sacrifice these relatives.
With Taishi Xiao's temperament, it is impossible to hinder the future of the Xiao family because of the lives and deaths of several people.
When He Junyi heard this, his expression was even more desperate, "Grandpa...... Really don't care about us anymore? ”
"Where's my aunt?" Xiao Mingtang swept through the crowd of prisoners: "Why don't you see your aunt?" ”
My aunt is naturally the daughter of Xiao Taishi, He Junyi's mother, in this crowd, Xiao Mingtang naturally didn't see it, so he asked.
He Junyi said distractedly: "Mother...... Committed suicide...... She is not willing to be humiliated......! ”
Xiao Mingtang was stunned, his eyes gradually showed anger, and he said in a low voice: "Do you know who harmed your He family today?" ”
He Junyi raised his head, and a little doubt was added to his blank eyes.
"You should remember Han Mo, right?" Xiao Mingtang said hatefully: "It was he who rectified your He family in Yichun and found evidence, which forced your He family to such a field...... It was he who harmed your He family like this! ”
He Junyi's eyes showed a look of resentment, and he gritted his teeth: "It's him...... Lao Tzu won't let him go if he is a ghost! He looked at Xiao Mingtang, "Big cousin, I'm about to die, if you still think about us playing from childhood to adulthood, you will help me avenge this revenge...... Help me kill Han Mo, so that even if I die, I can close my eyes! ”
At this moment, a sound of horses' hooves sounded, and several horses galloped from a distance, led by one person, dressed in sky blue brocade, and several people behind him, who also seemed to be the children of the eunuchs.
Seeing the comer, Xiao Mingtang and He Junyi were even more angry.
Of course they know each other, the leader is none other than the third child of the Han family, Han Bin!
Han Bin looked high-spirited, the flying horse was like lightning, and he galloped closer, so he reined in the horse, held the horsewhip, looked at Xiao Mingtang and He Junyi with a smile, and said with a smile: "Hey, isn't this Young Master Xiao and Young Master He?" It's strange, Young Master He, what game are you playing today? How to pretend to be a death row inmate...... Yo, you can play big enough today for the whole family to play with you? ”
Xiao Mingtang pointed at Han Bin and said, "The surname is Han, don't go too damn too much!" ”
Han Bin sneered: "Excessive? Why don't you think about the people who have been bullied by you in Beijing in the past few years, why didn't you think about it too much when you bullied others? ”
He Junyi gritted his teeth and said angrily: "The surname is Han, Lao Tzu is waiting for your Han family to come over below...... One by one, they all came to accompany me! ”
Han Bin touched the horsewhip and said leisurely: "Before that, I will watch your He family get their heads cut off one by one...... Young Master He, don't worry, when you go to the execution ground, Lao Tzu will go back to see you off! He glanced at Xiao Mingtang and said lightly: "Young Master Xiao, with a death row prisoner, is it possible that there is nothing else to do?" Fortunately, I am not an official, otherwise, I would have to refer to the imperial court, saying that your young master Xiao has colluded with the rebel thief, hahaha......! The horses shouted, and a group of people flew away again, and there was no trace in a moment.
"Young Master Xiao, the team has to go!" All of them came up and whispered: "Don't delay, the criminal department is still waiting!" ”
Xiao Mingtang clenched his fists and said hatefully: "Junyi, don't worry, I will definitely kill Han Mo and avenge your He family!" ”
"Young Master Xiao, what are you talking about...... Don't talk about it! Du Tong reminded in a low voice: "If it is heard by others, I am afraid that it will cause a lot of trouble...... Han Mo ...... Now it is spread everywhere, it is the great hero of the Yan Kingdom......! ”
He Junyi was brought back to the team, and the team began to move forward again.
Xiao Mingtang returned to the car, Xiao Mingmei's eyes were already red and swollen, "Big brother...... Is my cousin really going to die? ”
"It's all Han Mo's fault." Xiao Mingtang said hatefully: "Sister, if we have the opportunity, we must kill Han Mo and avenge Jun Yi and my aunt, if we don't take revenge, I swear not to be a person!" ”
"But...... But Grandpa wouldn't let us do that. Xiao Mingmei was teary-eyed, she also hated Han Mo in her heart, but Master Xiao had sternly instructed her not to make trouble in private.
Xiao Mingtang thought for a while, and finally said, "Sister, don't you always go to the palace to see your eldest aunt?" Next time you go, you will say more bad things about Han Mo and let the eldest aunt rectify Han Mo! ”
Xiao Taishi has a total of four children, two boys and two girls, the eldest son Xiao Huaijin, the second son Xiao Huaiyu, the eldest daughter is Xiao Guifei in the palace, and the second daughter is He Qingzhi's wife.
The eldest aunt in Xiao Mingtang's mouth is Xiao Guifei in the palace.
Emperor Pingguang of Yan State reigned for nine years, he ascended the throne for less than half a year, the queen suddenly suffered from a strange disease, and died in two days.
This is naturally an extremely rare thing in ancient and modern times.
However, the harem always has to be led by someone, in the emperor's harem, in addition to the queen of the world, there are six concubines second only to the queen, and these six concubines are the concubine, the virtuous concubine, the concubine Hui, the concubine, the concubine.
Among them, the status of the concubine is the highest, and Concubine Xiao was named the concubine with the help of the strength of the family, and thus became the most powerful concubine in the harem.
There is no queen in the harem, and she, the concubine, naturally becomes the head of the harem, leading the harem concubines and handling the affairs of the harem.
Xiao Mingtang felt that Concubine Xiao was the head of the harem, and if Concubine Xiao was allowed to deal with Han Mo, he was afraid that he would be able to put Han Mo to death, so he conspired to let Xiao Mingmei persuade Concubine Xiao.
Xiao Mingmei looked at He Junyi's distant figure, and knew in her heart that she was afraid that she would never see her again, and her hatred for Han Mo became stronger and stronger, biting her red lips, and said hatefully: "I must let my eldest aunt kill Han Mo!" ”
……
This day is August 28, the ninth year of Yanli Pingguang, Han Mo has received news from Yanjing, the He nationality Beijing officials led by He Qingzhi, two days ago, even the family members of the Shangjing officials, about 800 people, all of them were beheaded at the execution ground.
It is said that the head was cut off and rolled all over the ground, and as far as the eye could see, it was a good head.
The winner is the king and the loser is Kou, while the family is enjoying the glory and wealth that ordinary people can't reach, but it also bears the unimaginable risks of ordinary people.
The He people in the capital were cleansed, and in the evening spring, Zhuge Min wantonly mobilized the city defenders, cooperated with the Royal Forest Army, and wantonly arrested the He people, thousands of people, reduced to prisoners under the steps, and the sound of wailing could be heard for ten miles.
Ten miles outside the city, it was extremely empty, but at this time, this empty land was full of people.
Thousands of city defenders armed with swords and guns, as well as the Imperial Forest Army, as well as hundreds of yacha, formed a big circle at this dusk, and thousands of people of the He tribe, trapped hand and foot, gathered in the circle.
The officials of Dali Temple sent from Beijing also took out the holy decree in a hurry, and reprimanded the sins of the He family in a frustrated manner, explaining them one by one.
And thousands of people of the He clan, knowing that the end was approaching, howled and cried, filling the sky.
This was the second time that Han Mo had participated in this kind of large-scale punishment, the first time, it was outside Hanye City, watching the people of the Qianye clan being killed completely.
It's a familiar scene.
Standing on the dirt slope in the distance, looking at the screaming and wailing crowd, Han Mo once again thought of that bloody night outside Hanye City, and that scene was about to be staged again.
Thinking of the bloody and tragic scene at that time, Han Mo only felt that his stomach was very uncomfortable, and he couldn't be sure if he was going to vomit when he was executed for a while.
Of course, this is not the end, the family dispute in Yan Kingdom will not end for a day, this kind of scene will happen again, and next time, which family will fall into such a miserable situation?
Han Jia...... Could this be the case?
"Wine in a glass that can't be drunk...... Endless enemy heads! Han Mo sighed in his heart.
