Chapter 53: Ming Di (II)
、、、、、、、
The death row prisoner was used by Yuan Dahai to make the Black Flag Arrow Team blew the beef, and there was no reason to survive, but a baby suddenly appeared inside, which made him feel troubled immediately. No matter how ruthless he was, he couldn't put a baby to death, and his intuition told him that these women were not death row prisoners, and then looked at those male prisoners, several of them were looking at him with angry faces, their faces were righteous and awe-inspiring, where did they look like half-minute juniors.
"Father-in-law, these people? …”
Yuan Dahai had to ask whether the two hundred death row prisoners brought by Ji Yong were death row prisoners waiting to be beheaded. Although he was determined to defect to the eunuchs and be a sword in Wei Zhongxian's hands, he could not kill innocents indiscriminately, especially such children and babies who did not know what to do. If you don't ask about it, you will shoot it to death, just ask, how is this different from a beast!
Yuan Dahai's doubts, Ji Yong didn't care, and chuckled: "These people were specially brought out by Gonggong Liu from the prison of the Criminal Department, you can rest assured, all of them are damned people, you don't need to worry too much." ”
Zhang Ruitu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was a member of the eunuch party, and the Criminal Department had a large prison where a large number of felons were imprisoned, many of whom were to be executed after the emperor had approved the Red Autumn Festival. After Ji Yong returned to Beijing to tell the current situation of the Black Flag Arrow Team and Yuan Dahai's request to train the army, Liu Yingkun immediately asked Wei Zhongxian and went to the Criminal Department with an order to ask Zhang Ruitu to hand over 200 death row prisoners to Dongchang.
Although there are Xu Xianchun, Tian Ergeng and other Jinyi Wei commanders to take refuge in Wei Zhongxian, but the governor Luo Sigong and Wei Zhongxian can't urinate in a pot, plus the envoy of Beizhen Fu in charge of the prison is Liu Qiao, who has a close relationship with the Donglin Party, so Wei Zhongxian, the prisoner of the edict prison, cannot be proposed. But the Criminal Department is the only one of the six departments of Shangshu and Shilang are controlled by the eunuch party of the yamen, under the secret operation, it is not a trivial matter to mention two hundred prisoners, not to mention that there are a number of officials who have been against Wei Zhongxian since the second year of the Apocalypse, just for these people, the Donglin Party people have to come out to attack him every once in a while, so Wei Zhongxian has long intended to execute them, so as to save any mistakes in the future. Therefore, among the 200 "death row inmates" that Yuan Dahai saw, only a few dozen were actually death row inmates, and most of them were court officials and their families who had attacked Wei Zhongxian in the past two years and were dismissed and imprisoned by him under various names.
The young woman was the daughter-in-law of Wang Ji, the former secretary of the Criminal Department, and the child in his hand was Wang Ji's grandson, Wang Ji was being carried in the middle of the crowd by his family because his legs were broken. Wang Ji's imprisonment was self-inflicted, and his starting point was originally good, but unfortunately his brain was too hot, in order to bring down Wei Zhongxian, he talked nonsense, and forced things that had nothing to do with Wei to Wei, and also involved Mrs. Fengsheng, which immediately angered the apocalypse, and a holy decree was dismissed and imprisoned. Because he was a member of the Zhejiang Party, the cabinet controlled by the Donglin Party was happy to see him unlucky, but for the sake of opposing Wei Zhongxian, Shoufu Ye Xianggao still interceded for him in front of the Apocalypse and sent him to the prison of the Criminal Department for trial instead of locking him in prison.
If you are in prison in the Criminal Department, you can take the normal judicial route, if you are guilty or not, the three legal departments will try the first trial, and the cabinet will polish and polish, and maybe you can come back to life. But it's different when he goes to prison, it's the emperor who asks directly, and the three law divisions can't do anything, so Wang Ji is not worried, even if his wife and children are stuffed into the prison of the criminal department, he is not worried. Who would have thought that this prison was done for more than two years, during which no one was arraigned at all, and the emperor seemed to have forgotten him, plus the new Shangshu Zhang Ruitu was Wei Zhongxian's person, and all Wang Ji's previous cronies were squeezed out, so that he was not comfortable in this prison, and he always had to be brought out for trial several times a month. said that it was a trial, but in fact, it was a beating, Zhang Ruitu forced Wang Ji to confess that someone instructed him behind the scenes, and the person who instructed him was Han Yi, the second assistant of the cabinet, who wanted to pull out this Donglin nail in the cabinet and further isolate Ye Xianggao.
Wang Ji has a hard mouth, and he is also hard, and he refuses to give Zhang Ruitu's wish to confess to Han Yi. Zhang Ruitu can't help him, his two legs have been broken, and if he fights again, he will be killed directly, in case the emperor remembers Wang Jilai one day, he will not be able to explain. Liu Yingkun came with Wei Zhongxian's edict to mention people, and named Wang Ji could not live, Zhang Ruitu was afraid, but he didn't dare not listen to Wei's father-in-law's order, so he had to put people out and hand them over to Dongchang to take away.
After listening to Ji Yong's brief explanation of the true identities of these death row prisoners, Yuan Dahai shook his head slightly, he had no psychological burden to kill Wang Ji and other officials who opposed Wei Zhongxian, but he couldn't kill the family members and children of those officials. Then he begged Ji Yong: "Father-in-law, these people deserve death for attacking 9,000 years old, but these women and children are not guilty of death, and ask my father-in-law to bring them back." ”
"Yuan Baihu, the kindness of a woman is unacceptable." Ji Yong stared at Yuan Dahai and said earnestly: "The word loyalty is not on the lips, these people are the names of the nine thousand years old himself." ”
Hearing this, Yuan Dahai was silent.
"If Brother Yuan can't do it, my brother can help you."
Seeing that Yuan Dahai didn't want to kill these women and children, Lan Guoan wanted to help him, and with a wave of his hand, he wanted to lead someone to take the women and children aside to be executed alone. Seeing this, Yuan Dahai hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Lan is kind, the younger brother understands, you don't need the eldest brother to do it, the younger brother will execute them!" ”
Turning around, Chao Ji hugged his fists: "The subordinates are the leaders of the Black Flag Arrow Team, and only the orders of the East Factory are obeyed!" The 9,000-year-old enemy is the enemy of my Black Flag Arrow Team, and the person who the 9,000-year-old wants to kill is the person my Black Flag Arrow Team wants to kill! ”
Without waiting for Ji Yong to speak, he turned around and shouted: "The black flag comes with me!" ”
Beating the horse and galloping in front of the six hundred archers who had already assembled, after galloping around the horse, Yuan Dahai stood still, pointed to Li Qing behind him carrying a black triangular border banner and shouted: "This commander asks you, what is that!" ”
The black archers looked at the black flag in unison, and the impression of the black flag left by the ancestors suddenly appeared, and the crowd shouted:
"Black Flag!"
"Our Black Flag!"
Yuan Dahai roared: "Yes, this is the black flag that your ancestors fought for!" Under this banner back then, your ancestors proved with their lives that the Black Flag Arrows were the strongest and unbeatable! It is the most elite force of our East Factory! But, a hundred years have passed, and you tell me, are you worthy of this black flag in the way you are now! ”
When the archers heard this, they immediately buzzed, and in their noise, Yuan Dahai untied the iron plate tied to his waist, raised his hand, and shouted:
"As soon as the token comes out, who dares not to follow! This commander wants to take you to revive the majesty of your ancestors and reproduce the scenery of my East Factory! Now listen to my commands, and wherever the arrows of this commander are directed, you will shoot!"
Before the words fell, Yuan Dahai opened his bow and set up an arrow, but the arrow was a newly made arrow yesterday, "Shhhhhhhh With a thud, it shot into the distance.
The sound of the hammer, the sound of the arrow to the ground!
