Chapter 16: I Am the Embroiderer

"Commander Mao, what do you think of me if I let this Zhang Ruofei go to be the county commander?" Coming out of the cell, Zhang Shou smiled and said thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty, this is unlikely, being able to turn Zhang Ruofei from a death row prisoner into a civilian is already the limit of what we can do, we ......" Mao Yi hurriedly dissuaded.

"I am the Emperor!" Zhang Shou's expression suddenly turned cold, not at all as lively as before, which belonged to a teenager, but like an old and spicy politician, his face was full of chilling things, "If I want to let a person be the county magistrate, is it the limit that I can't do?" ”

"The minister lost his words, please forgive your majesty!" Mao Yi hurriedly knelt down in horror, prostrate at Zhang Shou's feet and said, "Your Majesty is naturally coercive and omnipotent. However, according to the rules of the imperial court, the county order is a civil official, and at least the merit of the person can be ......"

"I don't care!" Zhang Shou waved his hand, "If you can't do it, you can go to your companion and let him do it." If he can't do it, don't come back to me, and let someone who can do it stay with me! ”

"Yes!" Mao Yi dared to refuse, so he could only take it hard. Anyway, Zhang Shou finally asked Liu Zhongxian to do it, so it had nothing to do with him.

And he is just the commander of Xiuyiwei, and he only has the right to command the military attachΓ©, and he has no means at all on the civilian side. But Liu Zhongxian is different, the celebrant under his control, and a number of civil officials who have attached themselves to the past, forming a huge eunuch group, maybe he really has the ability.

"Well, you wake it up for me, I want to see who is behind it who wants to kill me!" Zhang Shou said coldly, Mao Yi nodded, and a true qi collided with him, and the old slave who had fainted under the coercion just now woke up directly.

"You're crazy, do you know who I am? You can't afford to offend the power behind me, so you hurry up and let me go, and then kill this death row inmate! After waking up, the old slave immediately gritted his teeth and pretended to be calm and threatened.

"Oh, I'm interested when you say that!" Zhang Shou on the side listened to it, and suddenly became interested, "Come, you talk about your background, we are not young people who are not afraid of heaven and earth, we still talk about rules, if you really have the power behind us that we can't afford to offend, then I promise to let you go, and apologize to you, what do you think!" ”

"You ...... Okay, be careful what I say, scare you" The old slave knows that if he doesn't take some dry goods out to scare the other party, he may be in trouble.

However, it was impossible for him to say the name of his master, so after hesitation, the old slave said with a gloomy face, "I am the one who embroiders the clothes, do you understand?" ”

"......" The audience was silent for a moment, Zhang Shou and Mao Yi's expressions were very strange, Zhang Shou looked at Mao Yi, Mao Yi hurriedly shook his head.

Just kidding, the embroidered guard is the personal guard of the Son of Heaven, and it is the knife that the Son of Heaven holds directly in his hand, if Mao Yi really dares to secretly send someone to kill Zhang Ruofei, then it will be Mao Yi who will die.

At the same time, Zhang Shou also knew the truth of what Mao Yi said, after all, Mao Yi, the commander of the embroidered guard, had no reason to do such a stupid thing at all.

At this time, the old slave didn't know anything about this, he thought it was his embroidered guard's name, and he successfully frightened these two people, making the other party feel scared, so he was silent.

But I didn't expect that this iron-backed dragon Liu Zhilong stood up directly in the next second, and punched the opponent directly in the stomach, the old slave was stunned by this impatient attack, and the whole person curled up like a lobster, and at the same time his mouth was wide open.

And Mao Yi just glanced at it lightly, then shook his head and said, "There is no poison in his mouth, every member of the embroidered guard must have a poison pill in his mouth, once the situation changes, he will immediately swallow the medicine and commit suicide." Since he doesn't have it in his mouth, then he is not an embroiderer. ”

"You're not an embroiderer, how do you know so clearly......" The old slave curled up and looked at Mao Yi, still there trying to make a final struggle.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in interrogating him here, you have to find a way to get him to speak!" Zhang Shou waved his hand, Mao Yi smiled and nodded, and the old slave who looked at it was terrified all over his body, as if he was about to fall into hell.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"What, you mean the old dog is dead?" originally thought that with Xiu Yiwei's means, this old dog would soon confess, but the next day Zhang Shou learned from Mao Yi, who asked for guilt, that the old slave was dead.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, the minister will die, and the minister did not expect that just one round of whips, this old dog will be directly killed!" Mao Yi wanted to cry and said without tears.

"You say, this old dog can't really be your embroiderer, right?" Zhang Shou asked expressionlessly, Mao Yi immediately knelt down again in fright, and desperately kowtowed to explain, saying that the other party really just ate a round of whips and died directly, and it was impossible for him to do such a stupid thing.

Mao Yi naturally told the truth, and he didn't really hit the whip, let alone hurt the other party's muscles and bones, but just wanted to break the skin of the other party, which was extremely painful, so as to force the other party to speak.

What he never expected was that the whip hit the opponent's chest with a small bulge, and as soon as the whip struck, blood gushed out like a fountain.

Although Mao Yi immediately arranged for his doctors to stop the bleeding, the blood could not be stopped at all, and in the end, the blood all over the old slave's body spurted out through this small wound, and finally died of excessive blood loss.

Mao Yi has never studied modern medicine, and he doesn't know that there is a disease called hemangioma in this world, and he usually looks fine, but once the hemangioma is broken, there is only a dead end.

Of course, Zhang Shou also knew that Mao Yi couldn't do such a stupid thing, he was just angry that he couldn't know who was behind the scenes, and in the end he could only let Mao Yi find a way to find out the identity of this old slave through other means and so on.

Then he put on a gentle and sunny smile on his face, and went to talk to his sister Dou E to relieve her boredom.

On the other hand, after sending away the sudden Zhang Shou and Mao Yi, although Zhang Ruofei felt a little inexplicable, he still waited for death with peace of mind.

And soon, he was really going to die.

On the morning of this day, an official in a gray robe, escorted by more than a dozen officials and hundreds of soldiers, came to Zhang Ruofei and announced the documents of the Criminal Department.

Jim's side has already approved the temporary execution of Zhang Ruofei, and he will be executed immediately when the documents arrive, so there is no need to wait for anything.

Zhang Ruofei nodded, did not resist, and let a few officials tie him up, and then was escorted to the execution ground along the way: that is, the vegetable market where he beheaded Dou E before.

Only then, the person who was kneeling on the ground waiting to be beheaded became himself, and the executioner was another person.

At this time, the surrounding audience was also surrounded by spectators, but unlike the previous pure bridge bustle, this time many spectators held incense in their hands, and some even carried a basket, in which boiled white meat and paper money were placed.

These spectators obviously planned to wait for Zhang Ruofei's death and pay their respects in situ...... This is a remarkable achievement, and throughout the ages, only those who have great grievances or great achievements have been able to enjoy the worship of the people on the spot.

Far away, such as Yue Fei, and closer such as Yu Qian, these are all worshiped by the people with various sacrifices on the spot, and our classmate Zhang Ruofei also enjoyed such treatment, which is gratifying.
