Jiang Youju appeared beside Tong Guan with a smile and said, "Master Tong, don't resist, lest more innocent people die." ”

Tong Guan laughed and said: "If you can fight with the master of Xiaoyao Island, this official will die without regrets." ”

Jiang Youju's long sword was unsheathed, like a frightened rainbow, and the sword shadow shrouded Tong Guan's whole body; to Jiang Youju's surprise, Tong Guan did not dodge or dodge, and walked directly into the sword shadow, his hands turned into claws, and he grabbed Jiang Youju's arms in a blink of an eye. Tong Guan, a eunuch, actually practiced the golden bell jar, Jiang Youju was surprised, the long sword failed to pierce Tong Guan's left shoulder, his arms had been broken by Tong Guan, and all the bones were shattered.

Tong Guan is proud, what about the master of Xiaoyao Island, it's not that he is deflated in front of him, what lord, he can't even take a move by himself; Tong Guan Meng felt a cold big vertebral point behind him, and a thin thorn had passed through his chest, Tong Guan turned around and saw the Emei thorn in the hand of the civet cat. Tong Guan was shocked and suddenly lost his blood, he was wearing a scab armor, how could he be pierced by an iron weapon?

The civet sneered: "Master Tong, I didn't expect it, the armor of the Qizi Armor can also be replaced, my craftsmanship is not bad." Tong Guan's face fell down in decay, and as soon as Tong Guan died, Tong Guan's subordinates no longer had the heart to fight, and they fled one after another. State

None of the eight people in the yamen were killed, Qin Nanren, Hu Yancong and Huangquan scholar Guan Kewu surrendered; among the eight wonders outside, Xiao Mi Tuohan Quansheng was originally a person from Song Qinzong, and the plum blossom swordsman Yan Bushan defected, except for Bat Dao and Fude who escaped, the other four odds were all killed.

Zhang Cheng said to Zixia Zhenren, the second lord of Xiaoyao Island, with satisfaction: "Thanks to your Xiaoyao Island, otherwise Tong Guan would really be difficult to win." ”

Zixia Zhenren saw Zhang Cheng's attitude as a superior, without the slightest annoyance, and said lightly: "Tong Guan's strength is not weak, even if the adults have already arranged it, we have lost three masters, Jiang Youju's arms are useless, Pojun and Lian Zhen died in battle, congratulations to the adults for completing the mission of the saint." ”

Xiaoyao Island has paid such a big loss, of course Zhang Cheng knows that he owes a big favor, and said with a smile to Zixia Zhenren: "Xia Guan knows in his heart, according to what the saint said, the items of Tong Guan and his party will be handled by you Xiaoyao Island, and Xia Guan only needs to go back with Tong Guan's head." ”

Zhang Cheng asked the civet to cut off Tong Guan's head and put it in a mercury bucket, and ordered Qin Nanren, Hu Yancong, Guan Kewu, and Yan Bushan to open the way, and he took Han Quansheng, the civet and Yiying's subordinates to escort Tong Guan's head back to Beijing. Guo Zhongxun and Wan Shengjie's army are in Runzhou, those people are Tong Guan's private army, and there are many people who are loyal to Tong Guan, Zhang Cheng has to consider that these people will intercept or take revenge halfway.

Qin Nanren and the others turned out to be Tong Guan's henchmen, and they knew everything about Tong Guan's arrangements along the way, although they encountered more than a dozen ups and downs along the way, there were no accidents, just in case, Zhang Cheng made a detour to Jiangzhou to cross the river, and hurried back to Bianliang.

Tong Guan's head was hung at the head of Bianliang City, 10,000 people celebrated, and the servant Shi Sun Mo and others were greatly encouraged, and began to write a book to vigorously state Cai Jing's treachery, saying that the corporal of the world thought that Cai Jing was the head of the six thieves, and Cai Jing had no reason to escape this catastrophe;

So Cai Jing was assigned to Nanjing as a secretary and supervisor, and then he was demoted to Chongxin, the deputy envoy of the Qingyuan Army, and lived in Hengzhou, and Cai Jing set off from Hangzhou halfway and then moved to Shao and Dan Erzhou. When Cai Jing went to Danzhou to degrade, although he carried a lot of money, no one did his business, and he couldn't buy anything with money. The five golden palaces have worshiped the prime minister, and the jade hall has been declared ten times, reminiscing about the prosperity of the past, and turning it into a dream. ”

Cai Jing went to Tanzhou, starved to death in Chongjiao Temple, died at the age of 80, his son Cai Xuan died of a violent illness that night; with Cai Jing's death, Cai Yu was given death, Cai You was placed in Leizhou, Cai Qian was exiled to Baizhou, and Zhu Mian was placed in Xunzhou. On the 10th day after Cai You arrived in Leizhou, the imperial court decree arrived again, and Cai You was directly sentenced to be executed in Leizhou and killed on the spot; Zhu Mian was also killed in Xunzhou, and his head was taken back to Bianliang to show the public.

The six thieves died at once, and the five thieves died at once, and the students Chen Dong and Buyi Zhang Bing followed the letter to reprimand Liang Shicheng who stayed in Bianliang, and Zhang Bing pointed out that Liang Shicheng's achievements were Li Fuguo; Chen Dong said that Liang Shicheng had different intentions and stole the merits of making decisions, and should be punished according to law. Song Qinzong thanked Liang Shicheng for supporting him, and even if he was forced to discuss it in public, he did not issue an order to expel Liang Shicheng; Liang Shicheng himself was also cautious, sleeping and eating without leaving Qinzong, even if Qinzong went to the toilet, he also stood outside, lest he encounter accidents.

Chen Dong had no choice, so he took a large number of students to find Li Gang, Li Gang was so busy that he took the time to see Chen Dong, and when he learned that it was this matter, Li Gang smiled bitterly and said: "You guys stop, now there is an accident in the north again, and the officials need to deal with it with peace of mind, Cai Jing and Tong Guan's protégés and former officials have resigned in large numbers, and many yamen are almost gone." If you have the energy, you might as well come out and do things. ”

Chen Dong shook his head and said: "If Liang Shicheng is not removed, I will not be an official." ”

Zhu Shengfei and Chen Dong knew each other in Taixue, and came over and said: "Chen Dong, you have to learn from Deng Su, don't toss." The imperial court failed in Hebei, in these two months, the prefect of Hejian Chen Yu was killed by the rebel general Sha Zhen, the whole family of 17 people was killed, after Sha Zhen surrendered, the entire Hejian Mansion has been occupied by the Jin army; the reinforcement of Zhongshan Mansion in the seed division failed, only the Zhongshan pacification made Zhan Du and part of the army and people rescued, Dingzhou was lost, the two armies of the seed division and Li Lu were losing and retreating, and now the battle line has moved south to the Daimyofu. ”

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment: "It's so serious, Yang Zhi and Yang Weizhong didn't send troops? I want to write a letter to Zhao Kai and Yang Zhi, and mobilize Shilin to condemn the two of them for being people who don't care about the life and death of the country." ”

Zhu Shengfei was speechless, Chen Dong's mind was that there was nothing else, and now the imperial court did not give Taiyuan and Yunzhong supplies at all, how could they send troops, Yang Weizhong was reluctant to go south precisely because there was no food and grass, for fear that the army would panic on the road, and Bianliang did not go all out to reinforce Zhongshan. According to Chen Dong's theory, what are the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops who did not fight under Bianliang City, and what are the courtiers who dare not go to war and have to negotiate peace.

Li Gang sighed and said: "Chen Dong, there are some things you don't understand, Yelu Yujian has been defeated by Wanyan Gao, lost Guihua Prefecture, Xinzhou, Shunzhou and other places, and is struggling to support in Datong Mansion, once Yelu Yujian fails, Yang Zhi will fight Wanyan Gao, and Yunzhong is facing a fierce battle." Reinforcement of Hebei was a dispensable battle. ”

State affairs are like this, Li Gang's vision is very different from the past, and Chen Dong was dumbfounded.
