Chapter 187: Prisoner Robbery (Part II)

The next day, Xie Zheng calculated the time for Xiao Daocheng to go down to the court, and entered the palace without hurrying, and at this time, Xiao Daocheng just returned to the Shiqian Palace, and was about to review the routine review of the recital.

Xiao Daocheng sat in front of the bookcase, and as soon as he covered the stool under his buttocks, the little eunuch in Duchun, who was guarding the door of the palace, entered the palace to report: "Your Majesty, the lord of Hengyang asks to see you." ”

"Tell her to come in," Xiao Daocheng was overjoyed when he heard that Xie Zheng was coming, and beckoned to Duchun.

Twilight retreated to the door of the hall, turned around and went out to pass the message, Xie Zheng came in immediately, this time he went to the palace alone, and Yuzhi was waiting outside the hall, Xie Zheng obviously wanted to tell Xiao Daocheng that she asked to see her this time, just to do business, and would not stay for long.

Even if Xiao Daocheng doesn't know her routine, he can summon her to see her more times, and he is also familiar with her habits, often she takes her maid to the palace together, and she will stay for a long time, and when she goes to the palace alone, she must just come for a while and leave, unless he wants to keep her.

When he saw Xie Zheng entering the temple alone, he guessed what she was asking for this time, and heard that her brother was going to ask for a beheading today, so she must have come for her brother this time.

"Your Majesty," Xie Zheng bowed to Xiao Daochengfu very simply and easily, and didn't even say much.

"Xiao Xie, why are you here? Have you copied all the 100 times of "The Curse of Death"? Xiao Daocheng saw that Xie Zheng was now silent, and he always wanted to chat with her.

"Back to Your Majesty, "The Curse of Death", Wei Chen copied it on the same day, and sent it to the Gu family early yesterday morning," Xie Zheng spoke, his face was lifeless, making Xiao Daocheng feel helpless, "So fast!" You copied it alone? Has Huan Ling helped you? ”

When Xie Zheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "To show sincerity, they were all copied by Weichen himself." ”

She thought that the reason why Xiao Daocheng asked so much was to see if she was sincere, but Xiao Daocheng then said: "Huan Ling, this kid, didn't help you, it's really unusual!" ”

Xie Zheng was stunned, she clearly remembered that she had told Xiao Daocheng a while ago that Huan Ling was only commensurate with her as a brother and sister, which was such a relationship, she copied "The Curse of the Past", why did Huan Ling need to help her? Xie Zheng rolled his eyes and raised his eyes to look at Xiao Daocheng, could it be ...... He had noticed that she had a close personal relationship with Huan Ling?

Xiao Daocheng was originally just a casual joke, but the listener was a suspicious person like Xie Zheng.

I can't take care of too much, it's already a moment in time, and I won't be able to catch up with the Xishikou Law Field at six o'clock in the evening!

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is asking to see you today, because I have something important to plead with Your Majesty."

When it came to business, Xiao Daocheng didn't have that much joy, he sat up straight and said, "What do you want or not, you say, what's the matter?" ”

Xie Zheng didn't have time to go around in circles at this time, and said bluntly: "Wechen's brother asked for beheading today, and the supervisor was Jingzhao Yin Lu's envoy, but Wechen wanted to beg Your Majesty to allow Wechen to be beheaded with him." ”

Xiao Daocheng was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "Why is this?" If you want to send him on his last journey, and no one dares to stop you when you get to the Dharma field, why do you want to be beheaded? ”

Xie Zheng squeezed out two tears, frowned and said: "He is Weichen's brother, Weichen wants to send him away in person, and he also wants the Gu family to know that Weichen will never shield and condone his brother." ”

Xiao Daocheng hesitated for a moment, and suddenly sighed: "Righteous annihilation, good boy, you wait, I will write an edict and appoint you as the deputy supervisor." ”

"Your Majesty Xie," Xie Zheng was very happy in his heart, but after calculating the time, Xiao Daocheng's handwritten edict was written, and it would take two moments to do so......

Xiao Daocheng also knew that the time was quite tight, so he also wrote in a hurry, thinking that although the distance between the West Market and the Imperial Palace is not too far, you have to go out from the south gate of the imperial city and take a detour, and it will take half an hour to go down this way.

He finally stamped the seal, Xie Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, now he can finally go!

Xiao Daocheng handed the written edict to Qu Ping, who was waiting beside him, and transferred it from Qu Ping to Xie Zheng, Xie Zheng took the edict and immediately retired to Xiao Daocheng. ”

Xie Zheng was shocked, hurriedly turned back, and knelt down with a "poof", she defended: "Your Majesty Mingjian, Weichen never dared to think of such a thing!" ”

"I'm joking with you, I want to make you happy, I don't mean anything else, you see why you're still kneeling," Xiao Daocheng raised his hand again and again, and said, "Hurry up." ”

Xie Zheng fell to the ground, and after standing up, Xiao Daocheng said again: "I like you to be unruly, and you are also behaving now." ”

Xiao Daocheng prefers Xie Zheng, another reason is indeed because of Xie Zheng's casual and "open-mouthed" in front of him, he is an emperor after all, and he is used to seeing subjects who worship him respectfully, like Xie Zheng, who points out to him all day long and makes two jokes about him when he has nothing to do, but can please him.

Xie Zheng lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, Xiao Daocheng sighed again, waved his hand at her, and said, "Go, go, go." ”

"Weichen retreated," Xie Zheng retreated, and when he arrived outside the hall, Yuzhi was not good at asking her what the result was in front of people, so he only made a look at her and asked, Xie Zheng also secretly smiled at her in response, as if there was wind under her feet, she walked very fast, and Yuzhi followed quickly.

When it was farther away from the Shiqian Palace, Xie Zheng hurriedly pulled the jade branch and ran to the car door, laughing and making trouble: "Hurry up, hurry up, I can't catch up." ”

The two ran to the door of the car, You Zheng led the carriage and waited here, Ma Zha also put it on the ground, and he called: "Xie Niangzi." ”

Xie Zheng and Yuzhi ran into the car one after the other, and then You Xiao was already seated, Xie Zheng then knocked on the edge of the car door and said, "You Xiao, let's go, the hour is not early, we must rush to the Xishikou Law Field before six o'clock." ”

"Yes, you two sit tight!" You Xiao said, immediately waved the reins in his hand, and the carriage set off abruptly, but it was so fast, Xie Zheng held the edge of the carriage door with one hand, and almost didn't stand firm, but fortunately, Yuzhi supported her from behind and pulled her to sit down on the stool behind.

A group of people quickly whipped out of the palace, out of the imperial city, to Xuanyang Gate, directly right to the west, through the right royal street, across the tide ditch, around Xizhou City, straight to the west fence gate of Jiankang City, the West Market Mouth Law Field is not far from the southeast side of the West Fence Gate.

When the three of them arrived at the entrance of the West Market, it was exactly six o'clock, and at this time, the Dharma Field had just been arranged, it seemed that Xie Zheng was not too late, and the outside of the Dharma Field was already full of onlookers.

Xiao Daocheng's hand, Xie Zheng handed it over to Yuzhi, the three of them walked towards the law field from the right side of the crowd, a row of soldiers in armor held spears outside the law field, and circled around the law field, Yuzhi and You Xiao followed behind Xie Zheng, she shouted: "The county lord of Hengyang has arrivedβ€”β€”"

The pawns guarding here bent down one after another to bow their hands, and only after Xie Zheng and his party walked past did they straighten up.

Xie Zheng has walked into the law field, Xie Wei is carrying the death card at this time, kneeling on the guillotine, hearing that Xie Zheng is here, he was excited for a while, and hurriedly followed the sound to look, but because he was carrying the death card on his back, the side head was acceptable, but it was quite difficult to turn his head.

He thought that he could be rescued, but when he remembered what Xie Zheng told him in prison yesterday, he realized that she came here today not to save her at all, she came to see other people's heads fall to the ground!

Xie Wei's eyes were full of loss, so he turned his head stiffly, lowered his head and didn't want to look at Xie Zheng anymore.

And Lu Ji, who was sitting on the prison seat, was really stunned when he saw Xie Zheng coming here, he glanced sideways at the main book, and complained in a low voice: "Why is she here?" ”

The chief bookkeeper comforted: "Xu is to send her brother on his last journey." ”

Lu Ji didn't think much about it anymore, seeing that Xie Zheng was getting closer and closer, he was also busy getting up to greet him, and asked with a smile, "Why is the county lord here?" ”

Xie Zheng hadn't even walked up to Lu Ji, so he wasn't in a hurry to answer his question, but he didn't know that he actually said later: "The county lord's brother was beheaded today, if the county lord wants to be with him for a long time, Lu can postpone the time of his execution to three o'clock in the afternoon." ”

"Three o'clock in the afternoon? Why does Lu Envoy Jun think that my brother's crime is heinous? ”

The light one is cut separately at noon, and the person can still go to hell to be a ghost after committing the heinous crime, and the heavy one is a heinous crime because he has committed a heinous crime, and he needs to be beheaded at three o'clock in the afternoon, just because the yang energy at three o'clock in the afternoon is the most victorious, and it can suppress the yin qi in the world.

Lu Ji smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, the county lord, you misunderstood, Lu is trying to ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Xie Zheng interrupted with a cold face, and only said: "Lu Envoy Jun, if you can't speak, you can close your mouth, and this county lord doesn't think you're a dumb person." ”

"Uh-uh...... Yes, yes, what the county lord said was......" Lu Ji nodded and responded to Xie Zheng, Xie Zheng then walked past her to supervise the beheading seat, walked two steps and stopped, looked back at Lu Ji, and said: "This county lord is here today on the order of His Majesty to assist Lu Zhijun to supervise the beheading together." ”

Lu Ji didn't dare to move, he was half-arched, his back to Xie Zheng, as soon as he heard this, he immediately turned around and faced Xie Zheng, and now his face was full of surprise, Xie Zheng gave Yu Zhi a look, and Yu Zhi opened Xiao Daocheng's hand to Lu Ji to look at, Lu Ji looked at it, at first hesitated, and then showed a flattering smile at Xie Zheng, and said: "I don't know that the county lord turned out to be here to supervise the beheading, please forgive Lu for missing someone." ”

Xie Zheng ignored him, but turned around and continued to walk towards the prison seat, and Yuzhi also put away his hand and followed Xie Zheng with You Xiao.

"Why is there only one prison seat?" Xie Zheng walked to the prison seat and asked coldly, Lu Ji hurriedly answered, and flattered: "County Lord, you sit, Lu someone just stands." ”

"Then I'm welcome," Xie Zheng walked to the stool and sat down, and Lu Ji could only stand aside.

At this time, it was almost seven o'clock, Lu Ji looked up at the sky, and then secretly looked at Xie Zheng, thinking about the plan of Xie Guifei and the King of Linchuan, but now that Xie Zheng is here, I don't know whether it is good or bad for their plan......

Noon is approaching, and when the time comes, the people of the King of Linchuan will not be able to do it, Lu Ji can't care so much at this time, so he secretly gestured at the killers hiding in the crowd disguised as ordinary people, signaling that they can do it, and the dozen or so killers saw this gesture, they jumped up one after another, turned over in mid-air and broke into the law field, and the pawns guarding the surrounding area were also busy swinging their spears to fight.

Lu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly sneered, Xie Zheng knew that he couldn't wait, and saw an archer with a bow and arrow standing on each side, so he immediately got up, quickly walked to the side, grabbed the bow and arrow, and aimed his bow at Xie Wei, and You Xiao and Yuzhi also immediately met the enemy and fought with the dozen or so killers.

"County Lord!" Lu Ji saw that Xie Zheng was about to shoot Xie Wei to death, and he knew that something was wrong, so he wanted to come over to stop it, but he was stopped by Xie Zheng's "get out", and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

The arrow was on the string, Xie Zheng looked at Xie Wei when he opened his mouth and wanted to ask for mercy, but he hesitated, but just for a moment, she finally let go of her hand and let the arrow out.

At the moment when the feather arrow left the string, Xie Zheng had already turned her face away, she really didn't want to see Xie Wei die with her own eyes.

When a killer saw the feather arrow flying, when he was about to shoot Xie Wei, he wanted to rush forward and split the arrow with a knife, but he was cut by Yuzhiyan's quick sword.

Lu Ji watched Xie Wei being shot to death, seeing that the plan had failed, he felt angry in his heart, but he was helpless, he could only run to Xie Zheng and said: "County Lord, noon has not arrived, this person is guilty, he can't be killed!" ”

"Since the lord of this county came to cooperate with the prison on the order of His Majesty, naturally there is no room for any difference in the execution ground, Lu Envoy, you have also seen that now someone wants to rob the prisoner, if I don't kill someone as soon as possible, how will I explain to Your Majesty then."

"But ......" Lu Ji was about to argue, but Xie Zheng still snatched his words, and only said: "He is my own brother, do you think I want to finish him off with my own hands?" ”

Lu Ji had nothing to say at this time, but he was still thinking about how to blame Xie Zheng for today's killer robbery, so he was counting on those killers to leave a few alive, but what he Lu Ji could think of, how could Xie Zheng not think of it? Since she had already taken precautions, she had also instructed Yuzhi and You Xiao not to stay alive.

Now that more than a dozen killers have been killed by the two, only two remain, Lu Ji hurriedly took two steps forward and shouted: "Leave the mouth alive!" ”

But when the words fell, Yuzhi and You Xiao also happened to wipe the necks of the last two killers, and Lu Ji had no choice but to stomp his feet and spread his hands: "Alas! This...... This ......"

"Lu Envoy Jun," Xie Zheng called Lu Ji in a strange voice, and then walked to his side, and then let out a laugh, and said in a low voice: "Don't think I don't know who sent these people, today I let you play a game, and you are also restrained, if you annoy me, I will make it difficult for any of you." ”

Hearing this, Lu Ji froze, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to turn his face to look at Xie Zheng, and Xie Zheng then said: "My brother's corpse, you sent someone to look at it, and then I sent someone here to carry it away." ”

Lu Ji was stunned for a while, and when he reacted, he nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Yes...... It's ......"

Xie Zheng glanced at him, then left, walked through the guillotine, and when he was about to walk out of the court, he deliberately stopped, turned around and pretended to be reluctant to look at Xie Wei's corpse, shed two tears, and then deliberately sighed, and then turned around and continued to walk out.

In the prince's mansion, Yin Luo hurriedly walked to Xiao Zhen's study, and when Xiao Zhen saw him coming back, he hurriedly asked: "It's past noon, but he has been beheaded?" ”

Yin Luo said: "There was no beheading, the county lord of Hengyang was ordered to cooperate with the supervision of the beheading today, and when he encountered a group of people robbing the law field, the county lord personally shot her brother to death." ”

Xiao Zhen was stunned, Xie Zheng once said that the recent events were designed by the fourth child, so the person who robbed the law field today must have been sent by the fourth child, she personally ended Xie Wei's life, thinking that it was forced by the situation and had no choice but to do so, but ......, "Doesn't she know martial arts?" ”

Yin thought for a while and replied: "My subordinates heard that the lord of Hengyang County rode and shot well, and he was in the palace a while ago, and he tried it with His Majesty. ”

"Really? Why haven't you heard of it......"

Yin slightly remembered wrong, Xie Zheng competed with Xiao Daocheng in the palace a while ago to throw pots, not riding and shooting, so Xiao Zheng had never heard of it.
