Chapter 295: Shocking Massacre!
This major case of rebellion in the capital is getting bigger and bigger.
At the beginning, there were only a few dozen ministers of Zhishi, as well as their clansmen, and only a thousand people were arrested.
And then it spreads, spreads!
Just ten days later, more than 10,000 people had been arrested in the capital, and almost every prison was overcrowded.
And the number of people who died in this big case has exceeded hundreds.
At first, only the official families of Zhishi were arrested, and then the incumbent officials were arrested.
The whole capital is in turmoil, and it is completely shrouded in the rule of spies.
Countless officials hid in their homes and shivered, and children did not dare to cry.
Duke Yuan Teng, a military magnate, had been ordered to go north to Liaodong a few days earlier.
"Bang ......"
There were bursts of dust, and the soldiers on the city wall of the capital clearly saw an army marching south, and saw that the flag was Princess Ning Xue's new army.
After getting the will, Princess Ning Xue went south as fast as she could, and arrived in the capital from Shanhaiguan in only ten days, and then stationed in the Tongzhou camp.
At this point, the number of troops loyal to the emperor within the capital exceeded twice as many as the Fang army.
......
"Shousuke-sama, help, save our master. ”
"Master Du, help, save our master!"
The first assistant Fang Zhuo, the cabinet minister Du Hui was silent.
Outside the mansion of these two people, there were densely packed kneeling people, all of whom were the families of the arrested officials, and they asked Fang to rescue them.
Fang Jianzhi said in a cold voice: "Father, do you just let the situation develop like this?
Fang Zhuo narrowed his eyes and said, "Otherwise, what do you want?"
Fang Jianzhi: "You can force the emperor to release people, Dongchang can arrest people, and we can also arrest people." ”
Fang Zhuo said: "Arrest whom?"
Yes, the entire civil official group is a member of the Fang Group, and the military generals are half allies, so you let the people of Li Jingsi arrest the people of Dongchang?
Du Hui said: "Once the emperor decides to turn his face, and he has the sharp blade of Dongchang in his hand, he has a natural advantage. We can overthrow him, we can even force him to abdicate, but it will be difficult to stop him from killing. Before, he tolerated the country, and also wanted to cooperate with the civilian clique to govern the country. Now that he's completely open, he doesn't care about anything, then you can't stop him from killing. You can rebel tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow rebel to remove him from the throne, but you can't stop him from killing people today. ”
Fang Zhuo said lightly: "The lord said that he would replace him and not directly rebel." The shell of the Daning Empire is priceless and cannot be lost. ”
Du Hui said: "Killing people is not the emperor's purpose, the emperor's purpose is us." He is constantly testing our bottom line and waiting for us to compromise. He wants to build momentum for those military leaders to see the appearance of the rise of imperial power, so that they can't turn a blind eye to his will. ”
Fang Zhuo said: "The emperor now has two knives in his hand, one on the outside and one on the inside. The one on the outside is Du Bian, and the one on the inside is Li Lianting. As long as these two knives are broken, the emperor will completely lose his minions and will have no power. ”
Fang Jiandao: "Then these two knives, at all costs, break these two knives!"
Fang Zhuo said: "Pass the book to the young master, just say that you have to break the two knives of Li Lianting and Du Bian without breaking the means." ”
Du Hui said: "Be fast, otherwise in order to persecute us, Li Lianting will go on a killing spree." ”
......
The Northern Hell Sword Sect's Great Enmity Island ushered in a guest, a distinguished guest.
He Jin, the lord of the big island, bowed down and said, "Meet your envoy." ”
If Du Bian was here, he would definitely feel that this noble envoy was very familiar, it was Xiao Muzhi who stole the six-vein divine sword, poisoned Lord Ji Qing, and coaxed away Mo Han.
This person, Du Yan has not seen through it until now.
However, He Jin, the lord of the big island, actually bowed to him.
"Your Highness asked me to come for two things. "Xiao Mu's way.
Of course, the highness he was talking about was not His Royal Highness the crown prince of the Daning Empire, but His Royal Highness of the powerful overseas empire.
He Jin, the lord of the big island, said: "Please speak." ”
Xiao Muzhi said: "The first thing is to get rid of Li Lianting." ”
He Jin, the lord of the big island, hesitated for a moment and said, "Li Lianting can also be regarded as half of my disciple of the Northern Underworld. ”
Xiao Muzhi ignored it and continued: "The second thing, get rid of Du Bian!"
He Jin, the lord of the big island, said: "Du Bian has already endured the punishment of heaven and will not die, and our Great Enmity Island has no right to kill him." ”
Xiao Muzhi said: "This is the will of His Highness, and it is your business to do it." ”
The Great Enmity Island Lord said: "I will report it and hand it over to Shangfeng to decide." ”
Xiao Muzhi said politely: "Farewell!"
He Jin, the lord of the big island, reported this matter to the Council of Elders of the Northern Underworld Sword Sect.
In just half a day, the order of the presbytery came down.
......
Inside a special prison on the island of Great Enmity.
Absolutely beautiful, plump and charming Li Daozhen is imprisoned here.
Her crime is very simple, after learning the news of the Star Absorbing Dafa, she didn't report it, but wanted to take it for herself, and finally even gave it to Du Chang privately.
So she was originally going to enter the Council of Elders of the Great Enmity Island, but at this time she was imprisoned in this special prison.
He Jin, the Great Island Lord, walked in, followed by a silver-robed adjudicator.
Li Daozhen's heart trembled, could it be that her matter was so serious that she actually wanted to dispatch the silver-robed adjudicator of the Northern Underworld Sword Sect?
The silver-robed adjudicator is the highest force of the Northern Hell Sword Sect Elders' Council, and only when the strongest enemy appears, will the silver-robed adjudicator be dispatched, and the general thing is only to dispatch the envoy of the Great Enmity Island.
Decades ago, in order to exterminate the Heavenly Demon Sect Leader Ji Yinyin, the Northern Underworld Sword Sect dispatched a silver-robed adjudicator.
He Jin, the lord of the big island, said: "Li Daozhen, you should know that the Star Absorbing Dafa is a very important part of the Northern Hell Dafa, and it is the treasure of the Northern Hell Sect. You didn't report it after learning about the whereabouts of the Star Absorbing Dafa, but instead handed it over to Du Bian in private, which is a capital offense!"
Li Daozhen was silent.
He Jin said: "Do you want to make meritorious service and restore your freedom?"
Li Daozhen said: "Yes!"
He Jindao, the lord of the big island, said: "Then you will go to kill someone on behalf of the Great Enmity Island and the silver-robed adjudicator." ”
Li Daozhen said: "Kill whom?"
He Jin, the big island master, said: "You don't have to ask, just follow the silver-robed adjudicator, and you will know who to kill after seeing that person." ”
Li Daozhen said: "Yes." ”
He Jin, the lord of the big island, said: "After killing that person, you return to the Great Enmity Island, all the charges are eliminated, and you will be promoted to the elder of the Great Enmity Island." ”
Li Daozhen said: "Yes." ”
Half an hour later, Li Daozhen, a great grandmaster-level powerhouse, and the silver-robed adjudicator of the Northern Hell Sword Sect's Council of Elders left the Northern Hell Sword Sect.
......
Beijing Noon Gate!
Hundreds of officials, dressed in prison clothes, knelt neatly on the ground.
These officials have four big grades and seven small ones.
Although the official is not big, the position is very important, either the officials of the six ministries or in the Hanlin Academy.
The eldest grandson of the former crown prince Su Chengbo was among them, and he knelt on the ground languishingly at this time.
"Shousuke-sama save me!"
"Lord Du Hui, save me!"
"I worked hard for the Fang Department to cause today, why didn't the Fang Department save me?"
No one wants to die, what can't be said or done before they die?
Tens of thousands of people watched the beheadings below.
Their perception of Emperor Tianyun is complicated, first of all, everyone knows that he is a benevolent monarch.
But recently, countless people have been rumored that Emperor Tianyun favored a little eunuch named Du Bian and gave him all the powerful soldiers and horses, which caused the southwest of the empire to fall, so he is a faint monarch.
But recently the news came again, Du Bian did not lose, but won a complete victory, killing all the traitors' 100,000 troops, so it seems that the emperor is a Ming Jun again.
However, it is always good to kill officials.
In the hearts of the people in the capital, there is no official who is not greedy, and there must be a wrongful person who kills them all, but if he kills one by one, there must be someone who escapes the net.
The most important thing is to watch the excitement, isn't it?
Li Lianting stared coldly at the crowd of onlookers below, and at first glance, he saw the henchmen of Lord Shoufu Fang Zhuo, as well as the henchmen of Lord Du Hui.
What did the emperor kill for?
It is to deter those disobedient military leaders and to build momentum.
How can you build momentum?
Kill people's heads, and then force Fang to compromise and retreat.
Once the Fang family retreats and compromises, those military leaders will not dare to treat the emperor's holy decree as a fart, otherwise when the warriors of Dongchang come to arrest you with the holy decree, there will be no other way but to rebel against you.
"Lord Fang Zhuo, Lord Du Hui, still don't you take the initiative to face the saint?" Li Lianting said coldly.
Then, he threw the sign in his hand and said, "Chop!"
This is very unreasonable, the minister of the criminal department can supervise and behead officials, but Li Lianting cannot, not to mention that he doesn't even have the position of the governor of Dongchang at this time, and the only official position is probably the minister of the guard.
However, with his command.
Hundreds of executioners raised their swords and fell.
"Whoa......
More than 100 officials, their heads fell to the ground, and blood sprayed wildly.
"Ah......" Some of the tens of thousands of people exclaimed,
Some applauded loudly.
Li Lianting found that Du Hui and Fang Zhuo's henchmen in the crowd just twitched their faces sharply, and then continued to be expressionless.
Li Lianting said: "The next batch!"
Another group of people was escorted out, a whole hundred people.
These are all the family members who forced the emperor to abdicate and sent to the old ministers, including the gray-haired and gray-haired, the young and middle-aged, the men and the women.
Inside, there are the relatives of the first assistant Fang Zhuo, and there are also the relatives of Lord Du Hui.
"Slash!"
Li Lianting waved his hand.
Again, the knife fell, and hundreds of human heads fell to the ground.
"Next batch!"
Another group of people was escorted out, and more than a hundred people were escorted out.
"Slash!"
Li Lianting waved his hand.
The hand rose and fell, and more than 100 heads fell to the ground.
"Next ......"
"Next ......"
"Next ......"
The onlookers didn't dare to look at it, and all closed their eyes.
And Fang Zhuo and Du Hui's henchmen were already completely pale.
......
The first assistant Fang Zhuo's house.
"Crazy, crazy, crazy......"
"Li Lianting is crazy, he doesn't want to live anymore, he doesn't want to live anymore......"
Shoufu Fang Zhuo's whole body was trembling!
Li Lianting executed a full 2,000 people today!
Two thousand, two thousand!
How many years has this kind of murder not been?
Taizu once killed tens of thousands of people at once because of the rebellion of his generals.
More than a hundred years ago, King Jin mutinied and usurped the throne, and killed tens of thousands of people afterwards.
But since then, there have been no killings on such a large scale.
Li Lianting continued to kill like this, and the prestige of the Fang system continued to decline.
Because these people were all killed because of the Fang faction, but at the critical moment, the Fang faction was unable to rescue them.
If he is allowed to kill like this, then who will dare to be loyal to the Fang family in the future?
Moreover, among the 2,000 people killed by Li Lianting today, there are also women from other families who have married.
It was in this way that the emperor used to force Fang to compromise.
The appearance of the rise of imperial power is to be manifested by something, of course, stepping on the head of the greatest enemy.
The consequences of the emperor's actions were extremely serious, and even the entire empire was torn apart in an instant.
However, he doesn't care anymore, his holy decree can't get out of the palace, the troops of the Fang family have already landed in Liangguang, and everyone has already killed his minister Zhang Yangming and King Gui who killed him, what does the emperor care about?
But let Li Lianting continue to kill like this, of course the Fang family is still strong, but he Fang Zhuo, the head of the cabinet, is going to be finished.
Du Hui said lightly: "Wait, keep waiting!" The two knives of Li Lianting and Du Bian will soon be broken, and at that time, the emperor will be a tiger without teeth and minions, and he will be trampled on. ”
Fang Jianzhi sneered: "And the emperor is very powerful on the surface, but he is all some old ministers of Zhishi, and there are some low-level officials. He didn't dare to move at all for the members of our faction's lineage, so he was completely inward-looking!"
People must not set up flags indiscriminately!
......
Cabinet minister, Zhang Shizhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is writing hard in the house, full of righteous indignation.
The content has changed from Du to Li Lianting, who continued to scold the emperor for being mediocre and cruel, conniving at the eunuch Li Lianting to kill innocents indiscriminately, hundreds of millions of people can't wait to eat meat and drink his blood, and the heavens can't wait to send down thunder to kill Li Lianting, the eunuch demon.
And yet the next minute.
Li Lianting, who was about to be cut by a thousand knives, walked in, and then there was a burst of ghost crying wolf howls outside, and thousands of Dongchang warriors rushed in.
"Cabinet Minister, Zhang Shizhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is suspected of rebellion, and Li Lianting arrests the whole clan, Qin this!"
Suddenly, Cabinet Minister Zhang Shizhi was completely stunned!
The emperor asked Li Lianting to kill chickens and monkeys, and all the chickens should be killed, but he is the monkey.
The other party was a member of the family before, and all of them didn't move.
"Take down ......," Li Lianting ordered.
Several Dongchang warriors were like wolves and tigers and arrested Cabinet Minister Zhang Shizhi.
At this time, a young warrior rushed in and roared, "I am Zhang Zhifeng of the Northern Underworld Sword Sect, who dares to arrest my grandfather?"
Immediately afterwards, he slashed towards the two Dongchang warriors who captured Zhang Shizhi.
Li Lianting didn't need to make a move, and a thousand households next to him rushed forward like lightning. He grabbed the opponent's sword and snapped it violently, and he wore a secret gold glove in his hand.
"Puff stabbing ......" The broken sword stabbed directly into the throat of Zhang Zhifeng, a disciple of the Northern Underworld Sword Sect.
When Zhang Shizhi saw his grandson die tragically in front of him, he suddenly stumbled and almost fainted.
That's it!
Cabinet Minister Zhang Shizhi's entire family of several hundred people was arrested and imprisoned by Dongchang.
The entire capital was completely shocked!
Many high-ranking officials seem to feel that the sky is falling!
Before they ended the law, the emperor did not grasp the descendants of the Fang family, and did not arrest the members of the third grade or above.
So they were sure that the emperor didn't want to completely tear up with the Fang family, which was a bluff.
However, the arrest of cabinet minister Zhang Shizhi completely shattered this illusion.
This, this is a first-class member, and this is the top few members of the Fang department.
......
When Fang Zhuo and Du Hui heard the news, they were completely and completely stunned.
Is the emperor crazy?
Even Zhang Shizhi was arrested?
Could it be that he really wants to force the opposing party?
You must know that there are 30,000 elites around the capital.
"No mutiny unless absolutely necessary. Du Hui said: "Once the war starts in the capital, the situation will be uncontrollable." It will go against the will of the sovereign, and may even directly shatter the shell of the Daning Empire. ”
Fang Zhuo said: "If the emperor kills Zhang Shizhi, then ...... That's a big deal, how do all the officials in the world think of us? Although they are all making money in the Fang department, they are also afraid of death. I'm sure as soon as Zhang Shizhi's head hits the ground, countless officials will go to the palace to bow down and shout the Holy Monarch, everyone is afraid of death!"
Obviously, the emperor is playing the game of Shunchang's reversal.
Du Hui said: "Wait! It's coming, it's coming...... Li Lianting and Du Bian's two knives are about to be broken!"
......
"I'm not a powerful minister, I'm just a knife, a sharp knife. ”
In the courtyard under the night, Li Lianting was practicing knives.
He is a great grandmaster, a top powerhouse in the United States.
But the sword technique he is practicing now does not have an earth-shattering momentum, and it looks ordinary.
After practicing the knife again, he said to himself in his mouth: "I will kill whoever Your Majesty asks me to kill, and even Your Majesty will not let me kill anyone, but whoever he wants to kill in his heart, I will kill whoever I want." He doesn't even want to kill anyone in his heart, but whoever needs to be killed for the sake of His Majesty's interests, I will kill whoever I want!"
"Boom......"
In the end, he slashed three times in a row!
Stand with your sword closed!
"For Your Majesty, for Wen Yu, for Li Yuan, for Du Chang!"
Li Lianting finally read four people, the four closest people, in order to suppress his demons.
He is not a saint, nor is he an iron man, and it is impossible for him to be indifferent to killing so many people every day.
So these four closest people are needed to calm his heart.
And right now!
A gust of wind blows!
In the courtyard, there are two more people!
Two powerful and incoherent great master-level powerhouses.
A mysterious silver-robed man.
One is a stunning beauty, charming and gorgeous, who looks no more than thirty years old.
Silver-robed adjudicator?
Li Lianting was stunned, for him, he actually dispatched a silver-robed adjudicator?
The silver-robed adjudicator of the Northern Stygian Sword Sect said slowly: "Li Lianting, I am hereby ordered by the Northern Stygian Sword Sect Elders to sentence you to death!"
If the Great Enmity Island wants to kill people, there are still charges, but when it comes to the Elders of the Northern Underworld Sword Sect, there is no need for even a crime.
Then, the Grand Master-level silver-robed adjudicator drew his sword sharply.
Li Daozhen, a great grandmaster-level powerhouse, drew his sword violently.
"Huh!"
The two great grandmaster-level powerhouses struck towards Li Lianting.
He will be sentenced to death!
Suddenly, Li Daozhen's heart trembled: "Li Lianting?......! Like my Du Lang's godfather?"
......
