Ouyang Bei is not afraid of wind and snow, and he can wait until the end of the year to Beijing.

Beijing and Yangzhou are very different, and Ouyang Bei is full of freshness in everything. But he had a concern in his heart, and where did he get the mood to visit, so he found an inn to stay.

After settling down in Ouyang Bei's inn, he found the shopkeeper and asked, "There is a Master Zhai Yu in Beijing, do you know where his mansion is?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "There are many interesting and beautiful places in Beijing, there are overpasses and miscellaneous things, and there are beautiful scenery of Shichahai, you don't go to these good places, but what are you doing in Tongluo Hutong?"

Ouyang Bei smiled slightly, took out a small ingot of silver, and stuffed it into the small second-hand.

The shopkeeper hurriedly laughed and said: "It turns out that the guest official is a person from the court, and the villain is offended." As he spoke, he carefully explained the way to Tongluo Hutong.

Ouyang Bei decided to take advantage of the darkness to cover his tracks and sneak to Lord Zhai Yu's mansion, so that it would be good for himself and Lord Zhai.

At this time, it was still early, and he had nothing to do, so he sat on the second floor of the inn and ordered some wine and food to drink, so as to relieve some boredom.

He looked at the bustling crowd on the street, and was full of emotion about the different elegance of Beijing. I suddenly heard the noise of gongs and drums on the street, but there were big officials on patrol.

When he looked from a distance, he saw a column of officers and soldiers escorting more than 10 prisoner vans slowly coming in the middle of the street.

Ouyang Bei saw the huge scene, and said in his heart: "I don't know where the prisoner is, how can he be so vicious and vicious, and he wants so many people to come and behead him." ”

In the past, when I was in Yangzhou, unless I met a murderer, I rarely paraded on the streets. He was curious to see the face of the thief, so he took a closer look.

More than a dozen prisoner cars came, led by a eunuch. The eunuch was followed by a military attaché, holding the eunuch's mount in his hand, but his demeanor was very respectful.

looked down again, but saw that the first prisoner car had a sign on it, which read, "Hukedu gave Wan Feng a traitor to the enemy in the matter, and he was executed in a late manner." "There was an old man kneeling in the car, his eyes wide open, and his face full of anger. Dozens of men, women, and children were escorted into the prison van at the back, crying incessantly.

Ouyang Bei was shocked, and thought: "It turns out that this death row prisoner is the minister of the DPRK and the Central Government!" He has never been familiar with the government and politics, and he doesn't know who Wanfeng is, let alone why he collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, so he had to say nothing and frown.

The prisoner car moved forward slowly, and the street was originally lively and noisy, but now it was as quiet as late at night, and the people around avoided it even farther away, hiding in the corner of the street, and did not even dare to take a breath of air.

When Ouyang Bei saw this momentum, his heart sank, and he hurriedly shrank behind the window, afraid of getting into trouble.

The street was silent, the atmosphere was very solemn, and suddenly I heard the sound of wah-wah-wah, and somehow a large number of ducks rushed into the middle of the street.

Ouyang Bei was surprised, and hurriedly looked at it, but saw a duck dealer looking panicked, and was driving the duck back to the cage, but there were two children crying loudly on the side.

When Ouyang Bei saw it, he already understood that it seemed that the two children didn't know the strength of the officers and soldiers, and they actually overturned the duck cage during the play, which was bound to cause trouble.

Countless ducks jumped in all directions, and for a moment they were all over the streets, and ran in front of the prisoner cart. The eunuch stepped off his mount and startled the duck, and the man hissed, and the man stood up.

The eunuch lifted the mount like this, and could not grasp the saddle, so he got up from the saddle. I saw him turn in the air and land firmly on the ground, obviously with martial arts.

But the first dozen horses didn't have time to stop, and they slammed into each other, and suddenly the horses neighed and screamed on the street, and there was a mess.

The duck dealer's face turned white with fright, and he held down the two children and knelt on the ground, just trembling.

The military attache who led the horse turned pale, kicked the duck dealer on the head heavily, and said angrily: "Look for death! I can't look at the ducks I sell?"

The duck dealer was in pain, but he didn't dare to move, he just lay on the ground and gasped: "The military master spares his life, and the little one will never dare." ”

The military attache snorted, kicked him again, and said loudly: "Next time, wipe the trick with highlights! Otherwise, your family will look good!" Then he turned around and went back, and said to the dozen or so officers behind him: "It's okay, let's go, let's go, don't miss the time of the execution." ”

Suddenly, he heard a scream, followed by a loud bang, Ouyang Bei looked from afar, only to see that the military attache fell to the ground, but he ate an ear scraper from the eunuch.

The eunuch screamed, "This dead man has taken off his horse, will you just kick him twice like this?"

When Jun Jian heard this, he lifted his military stick and beat the duck dealer for a while.

The duck dealer was bleeding from his head, but he was still trying to kneel.

The two children cried, "Don't hit my daddy!" and ran up, hurriedly hugging Junjian's legs.

The eunuch said angrily: "It's the opposite! It's the opposite! The big ones don't understand, and the small ones are nonsense, beat me, beat me hard!"

The soldiers shouted violently, reached out and grabbed the two children, and followed by a violent slap.

The children's immature faces could not withstand this kind of beating, and they immediately began to cry, and blood flowed from the corners of their mouths in three or two clicks.

Ouyang Bei was angry in his heart, and thought: "This eunuch is so domineering! Why do you insult the people like this?" He couldn't bear it, so he wanted to run into the street to stop it, but suddenly remembered that he had an important task and must not show up here, so he could only turn his head at the moment, and couldn't bear to look at it again.

Suddenly I heard a burst of laughter, and more than a dozen horsemen rushed to the side of the street in the distance, and immediately everyone was dressed up in luxurious clothes and military attachés. A lean man sneered: "Deputy Governor Pan, but if you want to detain someone, can't you even do this little thing?"

The eunuch surnamed Pan said angrily: "Liu Song is your master, we don't want to eat his set in Dongchang!"

He saw the duck dealer kneeling on the ground, and scolded sharply: "It's all you shitty thing, you have missed our family's big business!"

The duck dealer was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and only kowtowed desperately in the ground. At this moment, the eunuch surnamed Pan waved his hand, and I don't know what method he used, he actually cut off the head of the duck dealer, and in an instant, blood sprayed the heart of the street, staining the street red.

Ouyang Beida was shocked, he didn't expect the eunuch to kill someone, and he was stunned for a while.

The duck dealer's skull rolled to the ground, and his two young sons rushed up together, looking very sad, and cried, "Daddy!" One hugged Daddy's head, the other hugged Daddy's body, blood stained his whole body, and they all cried bitterly.

The fleeing ducks seemed curious, and only gathered around, looking sideways at the two poor children. When the pedestrians on the street saw such a tragedy, they all trembled, and none of them dared to take a step.

The eunuch sneered: "This family of three is not a good thing! all of them should be damned!" The right hand was slowly raised, and he was about to attack the two children immediately, and his expression was very cruel.

Ouyang Bei was afraid that the two children would be poisoned again, so he hurriedly took out the meteor hammer from his arms, and as long as the situation was not good, he would rescue people.

But at this moment, the well-dressed military attachés scolded: "Stop messing around! Let's go!"

When the eunuch saw that the group had left on his own, he snorted, put down his hand, glared at the two children fiercely, and rode away.

More than a dozen prisoner vans drove away slowly.

When the neighbors saw the two children escape, they hurried up and took them away, fearing that another disaster would happen.

In the distance, the cries of the prisoner car were heard incessantly, and the cries of the two children were staggered, which made people sour.

When Ouyang Bei saw such a tragic event, he felt full of anger, and scolded in his heart: "Dead eunuch! Dog eunuch!"

When he was angry, he suddenly heard a person at the next table say hatefully: "I hate the eunuch for misleading the country and killing the loyal and good! The traitor controls the government and reverses black and white!"

Ouyang Bei was full of grief and indignation when he heard this voice, and hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a scholar with an indignant face, and scolded freely.

Ouyang Bei was about to step forward to talk, but suddenly his heart moved, and he thought: "There are many fish and dragons in the capital, and there are eyeliners and eagle dogs of the imperial court everywhere, I must not be reckless." The buttocks that had just been lifted sat down again.

I saw another guest at the next table come up and say to the scholar, "Brother, I heard you scold so much, what is going on?" The guest was wearing a mink fox fur and was a rich businessman.

Ouyang Bei heard someone asking, and he also felt concerned, and hurriedly listened.

The scholar said angrily: "The world is not ancient. Fang Jin's righteous path is not open, the traitors are powerful, Liu Song and Chen Hong, the two big thieves, are ganged up with their henchmen to commit traitors, and the court is controlled by these thieves, how can it not be chaotic?"

The rich merchant sighed and said, "I came from other places, and I don't know what happened in Beijing. But I don't know who Liu Song and Chen Hong are that Brother Tai said?"

The scholar sneered: "Liu Song and Chen Hong are the evil abysses of the court. One of them holds authority, and the other is in charge of Dongchang, I don't know how many people have died, and the Lord Wanfeng just now is just one of them. ”

Ouyang Bei's heart sank, he had heard the name Liu Song, and the letters and salt quotations in his arms were related to this person. It's just that Ouyang Bei was not familiar with the affairs of the imperial court in the past, although he knew that Yanyin was related to Liu Song, but he didn't have the opportunity to inquire about the origin of this person, and he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the capital, he would hear about his bad deeds, which seemed to be by no means good.

The wealthy merchant asked, "Listening to Brother Tai's words, could it be that Lord Wan Feng was framed by someone?

The scholar sighed: "Are there still fewer ministers who have been defeated by Liu Song in the past few years? It's just that Lord Wan Feng was too agitated, first impeached Chen Hong of Dongchang, and then had a grudge with this Fu Liusong, and got the people of the two factions to frame him together, and ended up in a family and extermination. ”

The rich merchant said strangely: "Why aren't Liu Song and Dongchang together?"
