Chapter 27: Cannibalism (Part II)

Gaoling garrison, the left and right staff generals led 50,000 Qin soldiers, from Gaoling to Xianyang quickly, at noon, this army from Weide Gate Yong // into Xianyang, near the inner city wall to build a camp, but the left and right staff generals at this time to ride horses, to the Shaofu Mansion galloping away.

In the Shaofu side hall, Zhao Gao, Zhang Han, Zhao Cheng, Yan Le and others were seated separately, and a bamboo slip was placed on the table in front of Zhao Gao.

After a while, a government soldier walked in and reported: "The Gaoling army will see you left and right." ”

Zhang Han nodded, the soldiers went out, not long after, two generals walked in quickly, one called Zhang Heng, one called Feng Wu, after the two saluted, each took their seats, at this time, the people arrived, the door of the side hall was also closed from the outside, the light in the room was extremely dim, Zhao Gao coughed dryly, picked up the bamboo slip, handed it to Zhang Han, and said in a deep voice: "Arrest people according to this list." ”

Zhang Han opened the list and looked at it, there were more than 700 people, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this matter, in fact, he didn't want to care about it for a long time, but since the first emperor Lanchi was stolen, he followed Zhao Gao's footsteps to move forward, so that he could climb to Shaofu, and it was not easy to get to this point.

Moreover, in all dynasties, there is no precedent for Shaofu to be in charge of military power, and he can control part of the right to transfer troops around Hu Hai, which is also the result of Zhao Gao's secret arrangement, if he quits Zhao Gao's team, not only will he lose his official position, but I am afraid that his life will not be guaranteed, and I don't know when his name will appear in Zhao Gao's list.

All this is terrible, Zhang Han knows that he must seek a way to get out as soon as possible, otherwise, he will be dragged to death by Zhao Gao sooner or later, but the current matter is imminent, Zhang Han doesn't have much time to think about anything else, he has to put the list on the table, looks at Zhao Gao, and said helplessly: "Is there too many people......?" ”

Zhao Gao glanced at Zhang Han unhappily, but he didn't vent his dissatisfaction, only hummed lightly, and said: "This matter was personally agreed by His Majesty, do you want to resist the decree?" ”

The weight of Zhao Gao's words was too heavy, Zhang Han couldn't help sweating, and replied: "Don't dare to be humble." ”

After a while, Zhang Han picked up the list, looked at the two Gaoling generals, and ordered in a cold voice: "According to this list, the whole city has been arrested, and there are those who resist, and they have plotted against it." ”

The two generals got up, took the bamboo slips, and sang the promise to retreat, at this time, Zhao Gao saw the hesitation in Zhang Han's heart, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, and reassured: "If we don't dispose of these people in time, sooner or later, one day, we will die in their hands." ”

Zhao Gao's words were secretly reminding Zhang Han and sounding the alarm for him, Zhang Han had woken up from his contemplation at this time, he looked at Zhao Gao and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will do my best." ”

At this time, Zhao Gao looked at Yan Le and ordered, "You must fully cooperate with Zhang Shaofu." ”

"Whoa." Yan Le got up and took the order.

。。。。。。

On the streets of Xianyang City, teams of Qin soldiers ran back and forth, tall mansions, up to Jiuqing, down to the government soldiers, all those on the list were all arrested, and even some have affected a family, regardless of men, women, old and young, will be ruthlessly taken away by Qin soldiers.

The whole Xianyang is in turmoil, the stronger the wind// wave, the greater the panic, more than 100 officials, dozens of generals, they are without exception, no one can escape this wind // wave.

And the once prominent royal relatives, twelve sons, ten princesses of the palace were also hit by the Gaoling army, they rushed in, regardless of men and women, all taken away, all kinds of property, secretly into the cloth armor, fish eyes and pearls, many people can make a windfall, and some people have a lustful heart, pull the maid and maid to the corner of the backyard, pick // open the clothes, enjoy the gentle township, from time to time there are girls frightened screams out, but in the palace, no one can care.

These tragic cases, in only ten days, came to an end, the Gaoling army mission was completed, most of the criminals were detained in the Tingwei Mansion and the palace secret room, very secretive, and no one could intervene, a few days later, 50,000 Gaoling troops under the leadership of the left and right generals, withdrew to the Gaoling garrison.

At night, the sound of cries and wails in the palace of the court commander was one after another, the sound of whipping prisoners, the sizzling sound of hot square iron branding flesh, the heart-rending screams of people being pushed onto nail boards, and the screams of prisoners who had their ears cut off, their eyes gouged out, and their tongues cut off.

This is simply hell on earth, blood is flowing all over the place, the prisoners can't stand it, and they beg for mercy heartbreakingly, but the executioners continue to inflict punishment ruthlessly, and many people can't stand it and die on Xingtai.

Under the escort of the government soldiers, Zhao Gao came to the innermost torture room, and the three officials brought a five-year-old boy up, this boy is the thirteenth son of the first emperor, called Ying Leiyun, this unjust case, except for the third son of the first emperor Ying Zigao was not arrested, the rest were not spared.

At this time, the five-year-old Ying Leiyun saw that in the dark room, when there were more than 30 kinds of torture tools, he was so frightened that he cried, but Zhao Gao did not pity Ying Leiyun, he handed a color to a servant, the official took a splint, and threw Win Leiyun's hands into the splint with all his might, and the two officials shouted the slogan: "One two"

The two of them tugged at the rope at the same time, and the young Win Thundercloud couldn't stand the pain, and after howling for a moment, fainted.

Win Leiyun's fainting, Zhao Gao did not stop, he immediately ordered, the fourth son of the first emperor Win General Lu brought up, Win General Lu entered the secret room, saw Win Thundercloud who was faint to the ground, he couldn't help but be furious, scolded Zhao Gao for misleading the country and the people, lost all conscience, angrily scolded Hu Hai for destroying Tianliang, forcing Fu Su to death, seeking power and usurping the throne, mediocre and incompetent, framing Zhongliang and so on.

Zhao Gao was furious when he heard this, he resolutely ordered to torture Ying Jianglu, but Ying Jianglu sneered three times, pointed at Zhao Gao and scolded: "Dog thief, since ancient times, the generals have not been disgraced, not to mention that I am a relative of the emperor, if Hu Hai knows that you forced me to death, I am afraid you will not have a good time." ”

Speaking of this, Winning General Lu glanced at the bronze sword in the room and said coldly: "Since it has fallen into your hands, I am willing to kill myself and be loyal to the martyrs." ”

Zhao Gao glanced at Ying Jianglu coldly, he didn't want to promise, but Ying Jianglu's excited words also showed that he was a man, and after thinking about it again, Zhao Gao finally had to agree, ordered someone to give Ying Jianglu a bronze sword, and walked quickly to the outside of the cell.

Win Jiang Lu looked at Zhao Gao's back, he snorted coldly, he only hated that life was not at the right time, don't enter the emperor's house in the next life, the copper sword in his hand was pulled horizontally, and the blood on Win Jianglu's neck spurted, and soon, Win Jiang Lu died in convulsions.

After the next morning, Zhao Gao came to the Tingwei Mansion again, interrogated the remaining ten sons in turn, and tortured them until they voluntarily confessed all the charges, and Zhao Gao let them be detained and all imprisoned.

Three days later, all the princes' confessions were sent to Hu Hai's table, Hu Hai pretended to be surprised, angry, he slapped the royal case, angrily scolded these brothers, so that the Manchu civil and military shocked, and the people's hearts gradually dispersed with Hu Hai's angry scolding.

After Hu Hai was furious, he resolutely ordered that whoever was involved in the case would be dragged to Shicao ten days later and beheaded for public display.

。。。。。。

In an inconspicuous tavern, Zhao Cheng sat leisurely by the window, he was paying homage to Lang at this time, if nothing else, his brother Zhao Gao promised to mention him again next year.

Maybe this is fate, some people have fought all their lives, but they can't enter the political center of Xianyang, and they can pay homage to the official Lang without making an inch.

At this time, a guy came over, he knew that Zhao Cheng was Zhao Gao's younger brother, and he had just been promoted, so he called Zhao Cheng Yilang, and said with a smile: "Zhao Yilang, what do you want to eat today?" ”

Zhao Cheng likes others to call himself like this, he couldn't help but raise his neck and said with a smile: "The old rule, two pots of wine, two dishes of game." ”

The guy left with a smile, and at this time, Zhao Cheng turned his head to look out the window, he came out today, not to drink, but to meet someone here, a person who can spend a lot of money to buy an official.

Since Zhao Gao wantonly arrested the imperial relatives and the Chinese martial arts of the dynasty, buying officials has become a new fashion in Xianyang, and people with some money in the family will contact high-ranking officials in the DPRK and spend money to buy officials, which is no longer an open secret, in fact, Hu Hai also knows about this matter, but in order to be able to stabilize the construction of Afang Palace, he also tacitly agreed to this matter.

Moreover, since the death of the first emperor, the people of the counties began to use the old coins of the six countries again, and they began to gradually abandon the half two coins of the Qin State, this wind // wave lasted for a long time, and the imperial court also killed many people for this, but the situation is difficult to control, at the root, it must be those remnants of the six countries who are making trouble.

In order to quell the numismatic crisis, Hu Hai had to collect all kinds of currencies that appeared in the market, start with new coinage, and vigorously suppress the numismatic chaos in various places.

Moreover, since the first emperor took Mobei, the north used money, the amount was huge, the first emperor of Xianyang built the imperial mausoleum, Afang Palace, are not a small amount, the treasury is becoming more and more empty, and selling officials and buying officials has naturally become a product of this period.

The guy brought a plate of vegetables and put two pots of wine and two plates of game on the table, this action woke Zhao Cheng from his contemplation, Zhao Cheng looked at the guy unhappily, the guy was so frightened that he apologized, at this time, a person walked in from outside the door, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhao has been waiting for a long time." ”

Zhao Cheng saw that the person he was waiting for was coming, he couldn't help but smile and salute back, and the guy was like an amnesty, and immediately walked away, at this time, the person came over, arched his hand, and sat down with Zhao as a guest.

The person in front of him was Fang An, a wealthy family on Xianyang East Street, at this time he exchanged a few words with Zhao Cheng, then went straight to the point, and said with a smile: "I want to find a clerical job in the court, it is best to be able to manage taxes, I hope that Lord Zhao can help with the operation, money is not a problem, as long as Lord Zhao can do it." ”

Hearing what the other party said, Zhao Cheng couldn't help laughing, he stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of three, opposite, Fang An couldn't help but laugh and said: "Three thousand yi?" Okay, no problem, as long as Lord Zhao can help me do it. ”

After speaking, Fang An couldn't help laughing heartily, picked up his wine glass, and wanted to toast Zhao Cheng, but Zhao Cheng shook his head and sneered: "It's not three thousand taels, it's thirty thousand taels." ”

After speaking, Zhao Cheng picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said: "Manage taxes, this profit is big, you better think about it." ”

Fang An's hand holding the teacup was trembling slightly, he knew that Zhao Cheng was opening his mouth in the lion, but he was helpless, it took a long time before Fang An made up his mind, held the wine glass and said: "Okay, 30,000 is 30,000!" We're done! ”

Looking at Fang An, Zhao Cheng couldn't help laughing, he could make a windfall again with this deal......
