Chapter 369: Preparing for Battle at the City Gate
Three days later, the King of Dingnan personally tried the case of poisoning the people in the Pingzhou Marquis' Mansion and finally came to a conclusion, and the Pingzhou Marquis intended to assassinate the emperor, which was a crime of great rebellion, and according to the law, razed the three clans.
The three tribes are the father's family, the mother's family, and the wife's family. In addition to Nangong Yi's family, his in-laws were also implicated.
Those who were implicated by Nangong Yi and Nangong Shaohua were naturally very unhappy in their hearts, and some people kept shouting loudly, "Your Majesty, Lord Wang, those immoral things are all done by their Pingzhou Marquis Mansion, our Hong family has not done anything hurtful to the heavens and reason, and I have already retired Nangong Yuting, please let the emperor let our family go." ”
"Yes, yes, our family is also implicated, please let the emperor let us go." Other people who were implicated also echoed the voice.
Shangguan Tianyu was a little embarrassed, and then looked at Nangong Yihan, the sentences he made were all carried out in accordance with the laws of the imperial court, and there was no suspicion of revenge, and now he really wanted to kill so many innocent people, including three-year-old children, which made him a little unbearable.
Nangong Yihan looked at the implicated families, and said in his heart, although this is the law set by the ancestor emperor, but now it is not the original, the law formulated at the beginning may be very applicable to the original situation, but now it is different, if he really wants to kill so many innocent people, then what is the difference between him and the ruthless Nangong Yi?
At this moment, Nangong Yihan remembered what Chu Lixue had told him, the law is nothing more than human affection, and the laws of Beichen are strict, if you can take into account the law and reason, it may be more suitable for the current Beichen Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Nangong Yihan said lightly: "I decided to temporarily detain the relatives within the three clans of Nangong Yi, and if it is found out that they have not done anything to poison the people, they can be put back home, and if there is, they will be dealt with in accordance with the law." As for the Nangong Yi family, they were executed immediately. ”
At this time, Nangong Shaohua shouted loudly: "If there is an afterlife, I must not join the royal family again." By the end of his sentence, his head had been cut off by the executioners.
"Master, it seems that this Nangong Shaohua has only repented at this moment." Ning Xiang said softly. In order not to casually expose Chu Lixue's identity, outside the palace, Ning Xiang and they all called Chu Lixue the master, and Nangong Yihan was the master.
"If he can repent before he dies, it can be regarded as his coming to this world in vain." Chu Lixue said lightly.
Chu Lixue sat on the third floor of the teahouse, and the onlookers all cheered when they saw Nangong Yi's family fall to the ground. It can be seen that Nangong Yi has been deeply poisonous to the people here over the years in Pingzhou, so when their family is executed, the people will be so happy.
Just as Chu Lixue got up and was about to leave, she suddenly heard the sound of a conversation between a pair of master and servant in the next room.
"Master, this Nangong Yi is really useless, I don't know how many times I sent him letters before and after, reminding him to be careful, but it was so easy to fall into someone else's trap, what a waste of Lord's kindness."
"Hmph, I already knew that he was useless, I wrote a secret letter to inform him that Nangong Yihan sent someone to Pingzhou, but he invited the secret agent home to raise him, such a fool can't help me or anything."
"Then why does the master still bother so much, just watch them eat dogs, isn't it?"
"How boring is that, if I didn't report to Nangong Yi, then Nangong Yi would be killed in seven days, but this guy is really useless, I have already reported to him, but he still hasn't been able to fight Nangong Yihan, and the stupidest thing is to show his hole cards in advance."
"Do you mean the thousand dead soldiers? I don't know what happened to the 1,000 dead now. ”
"What can I do, I must have been poisoned by that woman." The man said angrily.
Hearing the conversation between the master and servant, Chu Lixue couldn't help frowning slightly, Han Jiang had mentioned to her that someone had secretly reported to Nangong Yi, and she was still thinking about who the person who reported the message was, but she didn't expect that person to appear automatically. That's fine, she is using a trick to lure it out.
It's just that the little guy's voice is very unfamiliar, but the master's voice is very familiar. It's just that for a while, whose voice is this, but she hasn't figured it out yet.
Immediately, Chu Lixue heard the door next door being opened, followed by the sound of going downstairs. Chu Lixue opened the window slightly, and when she took the person out of the teahouse, Chu Lixue saw the other party's identity clearly.
"It's actually King Jing." Chu Lixue muttered to herself.
"Respect the king? Master? Are you saying that the person who just said next door that the person who reported to Nangong Yi was King Jing? Ning Xiang was surprised.
This King Jing grew up in Yuncheng, and the Marquis of Pingzhou stayed in Pingzhou all the year round, it stands to reason that these two people will not have any intersection. What is the purpose of this King Jing's message to Nangong Yi? Could it be that King Jing also knew about the dead soldiers trained by Nangong Yi privately?
No wonder Nangong Yihan wants to go out of the palace in micro-service, he didn't stop it, he wants to get rid of Nangong Yihan with the hand of Nangong Yi, and he himself can do his unsightly deeds under the banner of King Qin.
Suddenly, Chu Lixue thought of something, "It's not good, go and inform Nangong Yue and Nangong Kai, and take the officers and soldiers stationed in Pingzhou to close the east gate and wait for it." ”
Ning Xiang saw Chu Lixue's solemn face, and knew that something big was going to happen, so she hurriedly ran to inform Nangong Yue and Nangong Kai. The two got the news and quickly blocked the city gate, although the people in the city did not know what was happening, but they knew very well that they could not go out casually now, otherwise disaster would fall from the sky.
Nangong Yue and Nangong Kai stood on the city wall with their guards, although the officers and soldiers stationed in Pingzhou did not know what was going on, but they knew that now the emperor and queen were in Pingzhou, and Pingzhou naturally could not have any accidents.
"Second brother, you say, he ...... Will it really do that? Nangong Kai said lightly.
"My father said that he had always been arrogant, and he was still estranged from the first emperor, and now, his love is still in the palace, and he naturally wants to gamble." Nangong Yue said in a deep voice.
"Hey, who are you, this is not for ordinary people to come, you leave quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being polite." Under the city wall, there were soldiers who seemed to have some kind of conflict with the people, Nangong Kai walked towards the city wall unhappily, and said in his heart, this is about to fight, why don't these people know how to hide, how can they still come to the city wall at such a time, they must be worried that something will happen and want to leave.
Just thinking about it, Nangong Kai had already come to the city wall, and what appeared in front of him were five handsome men, especially among these five people, four of them still had some fat powder.
"Hey, who are you? Get out of here. Nangong Kai said unhappily. He thinks that a man should have the appearance of a man, and he thinks that the few fat fans in front of him are so heavy, it is better to embroider at home to entertain himself.
"General, we're here to help." Wanyue said softly.
"Help? Don't be kidding, look at how thin you are, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy, I'm afraid you won't even be able to hold a weapon. ”
"That's it, it looks like a girl, let's go back and get embroidery. Isn't there a man in Jiangnan called Embroidery Lang Hand? You might as well go to him. A soldier standing by the city gate scoffed.
Hearing this, Rean Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes, this is looking down on them, but they can't reveal their identities now, if they know that the queen mother and the uncle of the dynasty are in front of them, see if they can still laugh.
"You look down on us, don't you? I see that the spear in your hand is good, if you can hurt me within ten moves, we will leave immediately, if you can't hurt me, then let us go to see Nangong Yue. Remnant Xue said proudly.
Hearing the other party say this, Nangong Kai couldn't help frowning slightly, the other party was really ashamed, but how did they know that his second brother was here? Looking at the clothes of a few people, the clothes are all of the highest quality, and there must be some origins.
The soldier who mocked others saw that someone was provoking, and there were so many people watching, if he didn't dare to agree, wouldn't it be too shameless?
Thinking of this, the soldier readily agreed to the challenge of the remnant snow, but they also added other conditions to the competition, that is, if the soldier lost, he would go to fetch fifty buckets of water to the city wall, and if the remnant snow lost, he would be responsible for a month's food for all the officers and soldiers in the city.
Chu Lixue was not worried about the food and grass of the people and officers and soldiers in the city, she was very sorry for the soldier, and he asked him to carry fifty buckets of water to the city wall alone, and he would definitely be tired.
At the beginning of the competition, the soldier stabbed at the remnant snow with a spear, and the remnant snow jumped up with a light skill, and easily dodged the opponent's attack.
Seeing this, Nangong Kai frowned slightly, he really underestimated these people, he couldn't imagine that the other party's martial arts were so high, if a few of them were willing to join their team to resist the enemy, it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort, but it was not quite right when they appeared, whether they were enemies or friends is not yet known.
Just thinking about it, I heard the laughter of those soldiers, it turned out that Remnant Xue not only took away the soldier's spear, but also stepped on the top of the head of the opponent with light power, no matter how the soldier jumped, he couldn't hurt Remnant Xue in the slightest.
The soldier tossed and turned for a long time, and finally he was exhausted, so he had to sit on the ground and gasp for air. He can only blame himself for his clumsiness, why didn't he see that the other party was a martial arts master, and he really couldn't look good, and the sea couldn't fight.
"How? I've won, go and report to Nangong Yue. Rean Xue said lightly.
The soldier looked at Nangong Kai on the side, Nangong Kai hooked his lips and smiled lightly: "Several, please go up with me to see General Nangong." ”
