Chapter XVI: Mutiny
The lieutenant complied with Ma Yuanyi's request, indifferently withdrew the face in his hand, gently wiped the blood stains on it, and slowly ordered with thin lips: "Drag it down, feed the dog." ”
The little jailer behind him was not surprised, obviously this kind of thing has not happened less, he skillfully put down Ma Yuanyi on the shelf, dragged one of his arms to the innermost part of the cell, looked at a group of half-human dogs with red eyes and roaring, and couldn't help but snort, these dogs, who have eaten human flesh since childhood, are much more ruthless than him.
If you get a little closer, you can smell the blood on the dog, and you can also see the rows of white bones behind the dog, which are all human bones.
The little jailer dragged Ma Yuanyi's body to death and threw it into the dog pen.
Then he immediately turned around, he didn't dare to look at this tearing scene, as if he too would be so dead.
Behind him, the cheers of dogs and the sound of biting made the little jailer's footsteps faster and faster.
When he walked back to the place where Ma Yuanyi was interrogated, he found that the governor had already left the cell.
There was no one around, and the little jailer suddenly collapsed to the ground, this person was already the tenth of the month.
At this time, after the governor had sorted out his clothes, he rode his horse and galloped all the way to the palace.
When the doorman saw that Captain Mao was dressed, he didn't check anything and let him go.
When Governor Mao arrived at Wende Palace, he stopped, stopped moving forward, and turned to the little eunuch on the side, bowing down and asking, "Please inform Father-in-law Zhang that Mao Yu has an emergency." After speaking, his right hand stretched out into the sleeve of the little father-in-law, "Little care." ”
The little eunuch felt the size of his right hand in his palm, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, "Where is the governor, our family will immediately report to Gonggong Zhang." After speaking, the little eunuch hid the things in his hand and walked quickly into the Wende Palace.
At this time, Emperor Ling was in the main hall, looking at the music in his hand and worried. Holding his cheeks, his figure was slightly sluggish, and he sighed, "Natural disasters continue, and the people have no harvest, how can this be good." ”
Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong glanced at each other, and at the same time looked at the emperor who was high in the hall.
Zhang Rang stepped forward and took a step forward, extremely respectful, and said in a sharp voice, "It can reduce the taxes of women and children in the family." ”
Emperor Ling frowned, "Father is confused, how can the treasury be filled with tax reductions." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Rang's back bent a little more, "Your Majesty doesn't know the cheapness of the people, and it should be, but the untouchables will be grateful to God because of Your Majesty's small kindness, and they will become more and more powerful when they work." In this way, the treasury is empty. ”
Emperor Ling was overjoyed, and sure enough, Father was able to solve problems for him, and with a wave of his sleeves, "What Father said is very true, and he will make a will tomorrow." ”
Zhang Rang's smile was buried in the crook of his bent arm, and when he looked up, he was extremely serious, "It is a blessing for the minister to be able to solve problems for His Majesty." ”
Emperor Ling was overjoyed, put away the folds, walked off the throne, and went back to the harem to rest.
At this time, the little eunuch saw that His Majesty had walked out of the palace, and Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong also followed.
With a roll of his eyes, he hurriedly trotted behind Zhang Rang and whispered, "Father-in-law, Governor Mao has something to report." ”
Zhang Rang raised his eyes and looked at You Zi sitting in a daze on the Imperial Emperor Ling, dragged Zhao Zhong, and motioned him to look at Emperor Ling. Zhao Zhong nodded lightly to indicate that he knew.
Then, the little eunuch led the way in front, and Zhang Rang slowly paced behind.
"Father-in-law." Mao Yu saw Zhang Rang's figure from a distance, and hurriedly hunched over and ran forward to greet him.
Zhang Rang glanced at Mao Yu obliquely, and let out a faint "um" in his nose, and after Mao Yu sent the things in his sleeve, his face softened a little, "What is the matter with the miscellaneous family, I don't know if Your Majesty can't do without the miscellaneous family?" ”
Of course, Mao Yu knew His Majesty's dependence on the Ten Standing Servants, and even called him Father, where would he dare to be disrespectful to Zhang Rang, and said respectfully at the moment, "The day before yesterday, Mao Yu received a letter from the informant, caught the Taiping Dao preacher hiding in Luoyang City, and finally tried something after two days of interrogation. ”
Speaking of this, Mao Yu's mouth was a little bitter, the person Ma Yuanyi confessed was really terrible, and at this time, he and Zhang Rang felt terrible when they told the truth.
When Zhang Rang heard Mao Yu say the three words Taiping Dao, his expression began to be solemn, this Taiping Dao has been jumping up and down recently, but he can't grasp it completely, which is really disturbing. At that moment, seeing that Mao Yu stopped talking, he felt a little angry in his heart, "Who is it!" ”
Mao Yu didn't dare to look at Zhang Rang's eyes, and his voice was a little lower, "Yes, it's Gonggong Feng." ”
"Sealed." Zhang Rang's voice was as cold as the weather in February, "How dare he do this!" ”
The little eunuch's heart twitched, and he secretly hated Mao Yu for harming him, such a confidential matter, if he knew, it must be a bad thing! I'm afraid that his life will be over.
Mao Yu's body never lifted, his eyes looked at Zhang Rang's toes, swallowing saliva, and his body trembled slightly.
After a long time, Zhang Rang was no longer angry, and he no longer cared about the fear of the two, and turned to leave.
When Zhang Rang's figure gradually disappeared into the night, the little eunuch and Mao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"How can you be so troublesome!" The little eunuch pointed at Mao Yu angrily, really scared in his heart.
Hades is easy to find, and the little ghosts are difficult to deal with, Mao Yu knows in his heart that if he wants to settle down in this court in the future, he will definitely not be able to get around these little ghosts.
At that moment, he respectfully stuffed a large silver tael again, and pointed to his hand with the little eunuch, "Gonggong is angry, Gonggong Zhang has never been angry, this means that you are already a cronie in Gonggong Zhang's heart." When the father-in-law is developed and takes off, the small ones need to be taken care of by the father-in-law. ”
This coaxing and deceiving words entered the heart of the little eunuch, and it was suddenly beautiful, yes, even if he knew about such things, it was okay, I thought that I had entered the heart of Father-in-law Zhang, developed and took off, I felt very beautiful when I thought about it, and my back was a little straighter. After collecting the silver taels, he was satisfied, and said arrogantly, "Tell me in advance next time." ”
Mao Yu didn't argue with the little eunuch about anything, and after he left, he spat on the spot and scolded secretly, "Tell you, do you want to die quickly?" I don't know what is alive or dead. ”
Looking around, the cold wind was blowing in the solemn palace, and Mao Yu stepped up and left here.
Zhang Rang quickly caught up with Emperor Ling's royal sword,
Emperor Ling turned his head to look at Zhang Rang and asked, "Father is tired, and I still have enough space to get it." ”
Zhang Rang hurriedly refused, although this was a great honor, and he also wanted to, but this could not be done on the surface, so as not to give people a tongue. "I don't dare."
After Emperor Ling's invitation again failed, he gave up.
When Emperor Ling no longer paid attention to the rear, Zhao Zhong came to Zhang Rang's side, looked at Zhang Rang's pale face, and asked in a low voice, "What's so urgent?" ”
Zhang Rang pursed his lips, "Feng Yu rebelled." ”
Zhao Zhong was stunned and looked at Zhang Rang in disbelief, "The news is true?" ”
Zhang Rang's face was ugly, and he nodded heavily, "It's true." ”
