Chapter 69: Arrest

The blood-stained flying fish suit was extremely oppressive, and the two subordinates who came out with the porter were instantly frightened and silenced, let alone shouting, and they didn't even dare to make a sound.

Ding Xiu didn't pay attention to them, and directly took the brocade guard and rushed in.

The people he met along the way, who still had the intention of resisting after revealing his identity, didn't even need to be warned at all, and fell to the ground with a short crossbow.

At close range, this military short crossbow is extremely useful, compared to the bird's gun, its sound is almost insignificant, and its lethality is not so weak that no one can hold its shot.

However, such a reckless killing, naturally it will inevitably alarm the dragon of Xincheng Bozhao.

It's just that Zhao Zhilong, who is a nobleman, has long lost the bravery of his ancestors, and at this time, hearing the screams from time to time in the front yard, Zhao Zhilong didn't have the slightest intention of looking for equipment to fight, but ran directly towards the back door, wanting to leave the Xincheng Bofu first.

But Jin Yiwei made a move, how could he leave such a loophole, after Zhao Zhilong just opened the small door in the backyard, Pei Lun, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, smiled at him.

"Uncle Xincheng, Pei has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Nishiki ...... Jin Yiwei? ”

Seeing that it was not a thief who stopped him, but Jinyiwei, Zhao Zhilong was first certain in his heart, and then there was even more panic.

Because no one knows better than him what he did today, so after seeing Jin Yiwei, he instantly felt that what he had done was leaked out.

"You...... You...... What are you going to do? ”

Zhao Zhilong was a little flustered in his heart, he subconsciously took a step back, and then said nervously: "I...... I'm Xincheng Bo Zhao Zhilong, you can't arrest me. ”

"It seems that Xin Chengbo also knows what he has done."

Hearing Zhao Zhilong, who was a thief, Pei Lun felt a little disdainful in his heart, just this kind of goods, if it weren't for the shadow of his ancestors, no one would want him to go to show people.

"In that case, Pei won't say more, please come with us to the Imperial Prison."

"Edict?"

Zhao Zhilong, who was originally a little confused, came to his senses in an instant after hearing the words edict and prison.

From the beginning of its establishment, the Imperial Prison has always been the most terrifying place in the Ming Dynasty, and legend has it that as long as the people who enter there, few can come out intact.

"No...... I don't want to go to prison!! ”

Zhao Zhilong, who was stimulated by this word, didn't care about Pei Lun and the others who were blocking him at this time, turned around and fled towards Pei Lun's side, wanting to escape from Pei Lun's control.

Seeing Zhao Zhilong who had fled, Pei Lun's men subconsciously raised the crossbow arrows in their hands.

"Huh. Don't hurt his life. ”

Pei Lun stopped his Jinyi guard, took the short crossbow in his hand, and then aimed at Zhao Zhilong's right leg and shot an arrow directly.

"Whoosh~"

The crossbow arrow with the sound of breaking the wind directly pierced Zhao Zhilong's right leg.

"Ah......h

Zhao Zhilong, who was desperately trying to escape, let out a terrible scream directly after being shot through his right leg, and then the whole body ran another step under inertia and fell directly to the ground.

After he fell, the brocade guards who caught up directly subdued the person without waiting for him to struggle.

"Help him stop the bleeding and bring him back to prison."

After Pei Lun glanced at the subdued Zhao Zhilong, he ignored it, and then instructed one of his Jinyi guards: "Tell Ding Xiu, let him take care of the people in Xincheng Bofu, don't have any accidents, and you may use it when you go back." ”

"Also, after dealing with the affairs of Xincheng Bofu, let him return to Jinyiwei as soon as possible, there may be other things to do tonight."

Pei Lun guessed from Cao Huachun's manpower today that there must be something big happening tonight, and the arrested Zhao Zhilong is likely to be just an introduction.

So after he sent someone to inform Ding Xiu, he didn't delay at all, and directly took Xin Chengbo to Jinyi Wei Prison.

And after he went back, Cao Huachun, Luo Yangxing and Wang Guoxing were all big guys, none of them rested, and they were all waiting for his news in Jinyiwei.

After seeing this lineup, Pei Lun once again confirmed that his guess must be correct.

"A few adults, bring people back from humble duties."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Cao Huachun nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Just send people to the edict, you can go back and rest first." ”

Hearing Cao Huachun say this, Pei Lun hesitated in his heart for a moment, and then plucked up the courage to ask a little risky: "Gonggong Cao, is there any other arrangement tonight?" ”

"Oh?"

Cao Huachun raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Pei Lun, and then said, "What, don't you want to rest?" ”

"I am humble and talkative, and I hope that my father-in-law will forgive my sins."

Although Cao Huachun didn't say anything, Pei Lun was still a little flustered in his heart, and hurriedly opened his mouth to ask for guilt.

"It's not a bad thing for young people to want to do more and save more credit, but don't rush it either."

Cao Huachun has a good impression of Pei Lun, and these two people are already Jian Zai's heart, so he is still willing to say a few words.

"We have killed so many officials today, and we have arrested Xin Chengbo again, we have done enough, we can slow down a little."

"Otherwise, if we continue, the movement will be too big, and even if there is a Banzai Lord blocking for us, it will be difficult for us to turn back."

After saying this, Cao Huachun lowered his voice a little and said: "What we should do, we have done it, and the rest of the things are not in you and me, nor in Dongchang and Jinyiwei, but in the court, in the long live lord." ”

Cao Huachun was pointing at Pei Lun almost without reservation, and Pei Lun, who was transparent at a point, instantly understood what Cao Huachun meant, so he was sincerely grateful: "Thank you father-in-law for your advice." ”

"If only you understood."

Seeing that Pei Lun understood what he meant, Cao Huachun nodded with some relief, "Don't worry about going back and resting today, there are still many things for you to do tomorrow." ”

Long live the Lord had the heart to take action against those nobles who only knew how to corrupt the imperial court, and now that Li Guozhen has crossed the bottom line, his actions are almost a rebellion.

After they get the evidence, tomorrow's court should be the end of those nobles, so after the early dynasty is over, they will definitely have to continue to arrest people and kill people.

"Humble duty understands."

Pei Lun nodded, didn't ask any more, and took people back directly.

After he left, Cao Huachun looked back at Luo Yangxing and Wang Guoxing, and said with a cold face: "Go and transfer the best hand at interrogation, and today you must torture everything that Xin Chengbo knows." ”

"Long Live Lord is still waiting over there, and after the confession comes out, our family will send a copy to Long Live Lord as soon as possible."

"There must be no mistakes or omissions in this matter, otherwise we will not be able to afford to be guilty!"

"Understood."

Luo Yangxing nodded, but there was no worry in his heart.

After all, Zhao Zhilong is just a waste who relies on the shadow of his ancestors, and interrogating things from his mouth couldn't be simpler.
