Chapter 162: The Destruction of Yandu City (Final)
"That's what the marshal said." At this time, a little farther away, there was a sound of harmony.
Yang Qi looked at it, and saw that the black flag had reported that Huang He, who volunteered to be a lobbyist, was standing not far away, looking at himself with a smile, but he didn't come up, he knew that there was a guard area at this time, and he only had the result of being shot and killed when he ran up in vain.
"It turned out to be Mr. Huang Hehuang!" Yang Qi nodded slightly on the horse and ordered left and right: "Let him come over." ”
"Dashuai's words are really reasonable, if Du Chunfeng understood this reason, he would not have suffered such a death today." Huang He said, coming to Yang Qima.
Yang Qi asked, "What is Mr. Huang here for?" ”
"Dashuai asked me to persuade Du Ming to surrender, I have fulfilled my mission, I have completed it, but I didn't expect Dashuai to break the capital so quickly, which is really gratifying."
"Just seeing the fire in the city, it's sad and lamentable!" Huang He looked at the fire that had not yet been extinguished in the distance, and said: "Du Chunfeng has failed, but he still wants to do this monstrous evil thing, not only to himself, but also to his family. ”
At this time, a general came to reply to his life.
Yang Qi ordered to go down, ordered to maintain order in the city, and inspected the situation in the city.
Hearing that the fire in the county guard's mansion had been extinguished, Yang Qi turned his head and said, "If Mr. Huang has nothing else to do, let's go and have a look." ”
"That's exactly what I mean." Huang He said with a faint smile.
At this time, most of the fires in Yandu City were extinguished.
Along the way, some corners are like ghosts, and the streets that used to be full of people are empty, and occasionally some figures float in the shadows.
The doors of several houses are open, and the big mouth of the black hole is cracked, but it is even more desolate.
Although the bones of the streets have been collected and gathered in one place, you can still see large traces of blood, and occasionally in some places, you can also see the scars of knives and axes, as well as some corpses that have not yet had time to be concentrated.
When the group arrived in front of the dark county guard's mansion, most of it was charred, and only the wood was still smoking.
Yang Qi stopped his horse, and someone came over to salute: "Report to the commander, no one in the county guard mansion survived, and a few people have been arrested, saying that they saw Du Chunfeng walk into the county guard mansion." ”
"Oh? Bring those men over. ”
"No." As he spoke, several soldiers were pushed in front of Yang Qima.
"You saw with your own eyes that Du Chunfeng died?" Yang Qi asked immediately.
"General Hui, that's true, the county guard seems to be crazy, first killed his own family, and then rushed straight into the sea of fire!"
Although they didn't know who the young man in front of them was, these soldiers could see that the person in front of them was a big official, and now that the city was broken, several of them had become prisoners of the other party, and if they wanted to save their lives, they had to act well.
Whatever Yang Qi asked, they answered, and asked what they wanted to know, and Yang Qi asked these soldiers to take them down.
"It's so ruthless, but looking at Du Chunfeng's past behavior, it's not as extreme as this." Looking at the mansion in front of him, Huang He said suspiciously.
Yang Qi turned his head to look at him, thought for a moment, turned his head, and also looked at the county guard in front of him, which had been extinguished by the fire, but had become a ruin.
"What Mr. Huang said, have you found any suspicious points?"
Huang He nodded: "Du Ying is in Yanchuan County, he is very wise, whether it is cultural and martial arts, he is quite accomplished. ”
"In particular, guarding the border passes, defeating the army of the Donghu Kingdom many times, and gradually expanding the influence of the Chan State in the border areas, where there are many toast tribes are all interested in the empire, and the Chan State has since become the sphere of influence of the empire, isolating the Donghu Kingdom."
"In recent years, the Donghu Kingdom has been ready to move again, the reckless dragon is ambitious, and intelligence officers have been active on the border."
"Maybe it was because he was bewitched by others to make such an extreme behavior, I hope that the marshal will look at Du Ying's merits for many years and ask the marshal to be lenient on the Du family!"
"If that's the case, then only Du Chunfeng will be held accountable, what do you think?" After listening to Yang Qi's tirade, he smiled slightly and said.
Huang He smiled and saluted: "Huang He is here to thank the Du family." ”
He said again: "Du Ming is waiting not far from here, is the marshal summoned?" ”
Yang Qi thought about it for a while, and said, "Wait for tomorrow morning, call him over!" ”
Although part of the county guard was burned, the rest of the area remained intact.
I saw five rooms in the main hall, three main gates, three rooms in the apse, beams, bucket arches, eaves corners are decorated with colored paintings, the doors and windows imitate the pillars with black lacquer oil, and there are gold lacquer beast face tin rings on the door.
After passing through the second gate, you can also see a garden, which is connected by a corridor.
Tai Yuanyi said: "This is the princely style, this Xu Jin is really bold, and he actually built this house." ”
Yang Qi was also very satisfied when he saw it, and smiled: "As a pioneer for the king, this is also a kind of construction, he has accumulated savings for more than ten years in his life to build, and naturally there are people with profound fortune to move in." ”
The air in the early morning of the second day was slightly fragrant, Yang Qi got up to wash his face and wiped it with a towel, and at this time, Tai Yuanyi came in to salute.
Du Ming had been waiting for a long time, and Yang Qi had just used a little early, so he listened to the announcement: "Du Ming asks to see." ”
Du Ming came in, Tai Yuanyi's eyes couldn't help but light up, only to see that Du Mingxian hadn't slept all night, and his eyes were faintly red and swollen, but at this time, he was wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved robe, his hair was as black as lacquer, and his face was like a bright moon.
When Du Ming came in, he kowtowed and said, "The sinner greets the marshal." ”
Yang Qi smiled reservedly, sat down in the chair, and looked carefully.
Yang Qi pondered again and said: "You have contributed to the city, and I have my own reward, but your father Du Ying is famous, but Du Chunfeng's crime is unforgivable, kill Du Chunfeng's family, except for you, the rest of the Du family is exiled to the border, and you are not allowed to return without an edict, can you obey?" ”
When Du Ming heard this, he was unexpected, kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you for your great kindness." ”
The words trembled, like crying and complaining, Tai Yuanyi's heart trembled, but he didn't dare to speak.
Yang Qi also felt something, sighed, and said, "Also, I appointed you as the county magistrate of my hometown Xijing County?" ”
"Yes!" Du Ming choked up and said in response.
"Originally, the Du family spirit card in the temple, you have to move out as soon as possible, you have to do this today, appoint you as the county commander of the western realm, and I also maintain the original order, you will move out tomorrow and go to the western realm as the county commander!" Yang Qi finally waved his hand and said.
"The minister is ordered." Du Ming choked up, kowtowed again, and said.
After Du Ming exited the gate, the three souls were incomplete, and they went out like wandering souls at night, and they were stimulated by the cool breeze, and their minds were more sober.
There was a small cart, and his own groom was still waiting uneasily, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but show joy.
Du Ming sighed abruptly, got in the car, and said, "Go back, there are many things to do!" ”
The coachman shouted, the carriage moved, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street in front of him, only listening to the sound of hooves stepping on the road, this was an ordinary scene, Du Ming had lived for more than ten years, and never felt that it was attractive.
Now, looking at the city at this time, I suddenly feel that it is very beautiful, but unfortunately, from today onwards, this city no longer belongs to the Du family.
However, the Du family was finally saved, although only he survived, he also saved the Du family, and was also sent to his hometown to serve as a county magistrate.
That's the result, it's not bad, Du Ming shouted a smile at the corner of his mouth, tears fell down, and he just watched all this greedily.
Du Ming went out for half an hour, and Yang Qi traveled to the county guard's mansion.
In the past, there was no pedestrian on the street where the pedestrians were busy.
Families were closed, and occasionally a pair of eyes peered through the gap at the passing troops, and soon retracted.
