Chapter 79: Jinchen is punished
Chapter 79 Jinchen was punished
At the end of the battle, Xu Mengmeng handed over Zhao Qianrou's body to the Zhao family, and cleaned up the rest of the mess with the soldiers.
A total of eleven people were caught alive in this assassination, and she took the opportunity to have the three caught in the forest during the day also thrown in, and brought the fourteen people to Sima Ji together.
Since Sima Wei had seen the scene just now, he understood that the target of the assassin this time was not only himself but also Ning Jun, perhaps because of a sense of sympathy, and he felt a sense of trust in Xu Mengmeng in his heart.
"Your Majesty, these are the assassins captured this time, and the rest have all been killed, and none of them have escaped." Xu Mengmeng knelt in front of Sima Ji, his tone calm and serious.
"It's hard work for Ning Aiqing this time! These people also asked Ning Aiqing to take care of them, and then hand them over to the Criminal Department for trial after they go back tomorrow! Sima Jian stepped forward and helped Xu Mengmeng up with his own hands and patted her hand.
"Protecting the safety of the saint is a matter of the minister's duty, and I dare not say that it is hard!" Xu Mengmeng's face was respectful, but he secretly thought about it in his heart.
It seems that it is impossible to continue this hunt, why did Sima Wei hand over this matter to the Criminal Department for trial? Isn't there a person from Sima Xun in the Criminal Department? You must know that if he wants to weaken the power of the Seventh Prince, it is best to try the case in person before it is convenient to do it!
In fact, Sima Wei didn't want to try the case in person, but in less than half a year, he disposed of the two children in a row, and those who understood would say that those were what they deserved, but in this way, there are still many people who privately say that the two sons were calculated by him, saying that he can't tolerate them, so in order not to provoke criticism, he can't move the fifth and seventh children now.
Although the Assassins were found in time, and all but those who were alive were killed, several officials and their families were killed, and many others were frightened, and when they heard that they would return to the city after dawn, many people chose to sit by the fire and wait for dawn.
After returning to the city, Xu Mengmeng first arranged for someone to send those assassins to the Criminal Department, and then took Jinchen and Glimpse straight to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
"Why did the general come back after two days of hunting? Could it be that something happened? Lixing, who was training in the army, was a little surprised to see a few people who suddenly appeared.
"Glimpse, you tell Lixing about the matter, I'll go and see the batch of weapons that came back from Qingzhou!" Xu Mengmeng patted Glimpse's shoulder and left.
After Xu Mengmeng left, Glimpses told Lixing everything that happened in the hunting ground. After listening to what happened, Lixing's face instantly fell, and a pair of sharp eyes looked at Jinchen fiercely:
"Jinchen, do you remember what you said?"
Faced with Lixing's question, Jinchen did not answer, but chose to remain silent.
In fact, since the assassin was exterminated, Miss never said a word to him, at first he also thought that Miss was sad about Miss Zhao's death, but after thinking about it, he found that Miss was just doing this to him, he understood, but he understood it, but he didn't regret it, let him watch such a kind and beautiful woman die in front of him, he couldn't do it!
"Since you don't plan to explain, then I'll have to do business! Someone, rip off his shirt for me, and hang it up! Lixing gave him a cold look, and then ordered the soldiers on the side.
"Second brother, you can spare the third brother this time! He knew he was wrong, right? Third brother, apologize to the second brother! Glimpse stopped between the two with an anxious expression, but Jinchen was still silent.
Seeing Jinchen's attitude, the anger in Lixing's heart was even worse, and he pushed away the glimpse and yelled at the soldiers not far away: "Didn't you hear me?" I said hang him! ”
For the first time, all the soldiers were shocked to see the usually gentle Lishen General making such a big fire, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to step forward for a while, until Lixing looked at them for a while, and then the three of them came forward with ropes.
"General Jin, offended!" Several people hugged their fists at Jinchen and said a word, and then tied him up and hung him.
Seeing this, Lixing went to his camp, and when he came back, he already held a short iron whip with a black handle in his hand, walked in front of Jinchen, and whipped him directly on his naked upper body.
The whip left a deep red mark on Bai Chen's skin, and even the soldiers who were watching on the side trembled, and a little cold sweat broke out on Jinchen's forehead, but he frowned slightly, his face was still calm, and he just bit his lip stubbornly.
"Don't talk, do you? Think you're right? Lixing whipped Jinchen's chin again, forcing him to look at him, and seeing that he still didn't speak, he withdrew the whip and whipped him again.
"Just for the sake of a woman, you were able to disobey the task given to you by the general, are you worthy of the general? Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing that? Lixing asked loudly.
The glimpse looked at Lixing, who ignored his pleas, and then looked at Jinchen, who was silent and beaten without saying a word, sighed fiercely and walked towards the weapon camp where Xu Mengmeng was.
"General, the second brother is whipping the third brother, you should hurry up and take a look!" Glimpse looked at Xu Mengmeng with an anxious face, but what he didn't expect was that Xu Mengmeng didn't pay attention to his words, and still looked at those weapons by himself.
"Lixing did the right thing to do!" Xu Mengmeng said lightly.
"But ......"
"No, Jin Chen didn't listen to my orders and violated his actions without permission, according to the rules of your twelve horsemen, he should receive these twenty lashes!"
"General, you ......" Glimpse looked at her in shock.
"You don't have to look at me so surprised, she left you and the emperor in order to save Miss Zhao Er, have you ever thought about what would have happened if I hadn't arrived in time at that time? I left my brother who was born and died for the sake of a woman, to be honest, I can't afford such a person.
I think it is necessary to remind you that I am your master, and from the first day you followed me, to disobey my orders is to make a mistake, and to make a mistake is to be punished, no matter what reason you have, even if I let you die, you can't disobey, understand? Xu Mengmeng looked into his eyes and said word by word.
Until he left the weapons camp, those cold and ruthless words were still echoing in the ears of the glimpse, and it turned out that the cute and cunning young lady in Yuncheng and Rongcheng had grown up completely!
When he returned, Lixing had already been carried down by the fainting Jinchen, and his heart seemed to be crushed by a stone, and he turned around and took a jar of wine back to his tent.
"What? Feeling uncomfortable? ”
"Floating light, Miss seems to have changed!" Glimpse lifted the jar and took a sip of it, looking at the person who had lifted the curtain and entered.
"No, she's always been too affectionate, and I wish she had been colder! She's actually just afraid, if she hadn't gone in time, you would have died! Believe me, if you die, she might kill Jinchen directly!
She is right in saying that we must not disobey her orders no matter what, and that is the meaning of our lives! And Lixing didn't do anything wrong, if the emperor was killed by an assassin because of Jinchen's selfishness, then the Seven Princes would be able to inherit the unification, not only is there no hope of overturning the case, but we are afraid that it will be difficult to live! Fuguang explained with a sigh.
