Night Battle Kaiyuan VII

The situation that Liu Yishou saw was exactly what Nan Tianba Suo was worried about, if this Zhang Jingxiu really died in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, all kinds of chaotic thoughts seemed to burst Nan Tianba's head for a while.

Thinking of the vicious methods of Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of the East Factory, Nan Tianba's whole person was like falling into an ice cave, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he reached out and lifted Liu Zongqi, who was slumped beside him, and pinched Liu Zongqi's neck with a pair of iron palms, and said like crazy: "You have eaten the gall of the bear's heart and leopard, and you will be told thousands of times to let you leave a life surnamed Zhang, you dare to disobey and disrespect him and kill him, do you want to kill Lao Tzu, good Lao Tzu will send you this miscellaneous back to the West first." ”

Liu Yiyi's kung fu as the general banner of Jinyi Wei was not much inferior to this Nan Tianba, but Nan Tianba was a native of Dongchang, and his official position was much higher than that of Liu Yiyi, and he was caught off guard and suddenly attacked.

Liu Yiyi was grabbed by Nan Tianba's iron palm, and he couldn't break free, and his whole face slowly turned blue, and he was about to lose his breath.

Seeing this, the Jinyi guard beside Nan Tianba persuaded one after another: "General, I can't help it." ”

At this time, the East Factory and Jinyiwei were nominally two institutions, but in fact, the commander of Jinyiwei was subject to the coercion of Jiang Jingzhong, the director of the East Factory, and the status of Jinyiwei had always been inferior to that of the East Factory.

Jiang Jingzhong even gave grace to Jinyiwei from time to time, and after a long time, Jinyiwei was still ordered by the Son of Heaven on the surface, but in fact, it almost became a branch of the East Factory.

Nan Tianba was furious at this time, and he didn't hear the pleas of his subordinates around him.

At this moment, Zhang Jingxiu, who was lying on the ground, probably touched the wound on his body, and let out a painful snort.

This painful snort was like a thunderbolt in the Scripture Pavilion at this time, and the relatives behind Nan Tianba hurriedly rushed to Zhang Jingxiu's side, checked and said with surprise: "General, this surnamed Zhang is not dead." ”

When Nan Tianba heard this, he tightly pinched Liu Zongqi's hands before he slowly let go.

The third and fifth children hurriedly stepped forward to support Liu Zongqi.

It took Liu Zongqi a long time to recover his breath, and he broke free from the support of the third and fifth children, waved his hand and gave each of them a big mouth, and shouted angrily: "How did I tell you before I left, this little cub surnamed Zhang can't die......"

The third child covered his face and said, "Big brother, didn't you confess to torture this kid and dig up the news of the anti-party earlier." ”

Liu Zongqi remembered that he did say such a sentence before leaving, but at this time, in front of Nan Tianba, he was ignorant and angry, and kicked the third child down and shouted angrily: "Nonsense, I asked you to force a confession, but I didn't let you put this kid to death, you can't do this thing well, what do you want." ”

This Liu Zongqi said that he actually took out his waist knife and was about to cut it on the head of the third child.

Nan Tianba watched coldly from the sidelines, he just relied on his whiskers to pat the position of the horse, the Tao in this officialdom was very familiar, and he naturally saw what Liu Yishou was acting for, and at this time he saw that Zhang Jingxiu was not dead, and he was not as angry as Fang Cai.

said tepidly: "Okay, Mr. Liu, since this Zhang Jingxiu is not dead, don't mention the past." ”

Liu Yishou and the third child and the other four are sworn brothers, the previous action of pulling out the knife was just to find a step for himself, and he actually didn't plan to really cut his third brother, hearing Nan Tianba speak, he hurriedly withdrew his hand and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the general." ”

Nan Tianba personally walked to Zhang Jingxiu's side, and saw that although Zhang Jingxiu was still alive at this time, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it if he continued to be tortured.

Although Nan Tianba also knew in his heart that the reason why the Governor Jiang Jingzhong and Lord Jiang ordered to leave this Zhang Jingxiu alive was not because Jiang Jingzhong was merciful, but to wipe out Gu Youdao and his gang who helped Zhang Jingxiu against the party, as well as the martial arts heroes in the Jiangnan area who dared to oppose Dongchang Jinyiwei.

As long as Zhang Jingxiu is willing to let go and confess the whereabouts of those traitors and rebels against the party, when the Dongchang army led by Jiang Jingzhong arrives, together with thousands of elites in Kaiyuan Temple, these traitors can be wiped out.

If Zhang Jingxiu refuses to let go, he will release the news to attract the traitors and traitors in the south of the Yangtze River to come to Kaiyuan Temple.

But at the moment, Zhang Jingxiu stubbornly refused to confess, the army led by Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of the East Factory, was still on the way to come, and Gu Youdao and other rebels who opposed the court had not yet shown up, and this Zhang Jingxiu would never die.

Thinking of the trick, Nan Tianba ordered: "Come on, go find a doctor and treat this surnamed Zhang with injuries." ”

After a while, an old man was brought in.

This old man was originally a doctor in a medical hall in Fuzhou City, and was directly arrested by these lawless brocade guards, and at first he thought he was in some trouble, and when he was taken to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of Kaiyuan Temple, he saw Zhang Jingxiu, who was covered in bruises, and he knew that these officials had arrested him to treat people.

Lao Langzhong has been practicing medicine in Fuzhou City for half his life, and he has seen all kinds of patients, but it is the first time he has encountered a person who seems to be a serious offender of the imperial court when he runs to the Buddhist temple.

But at this time, he was forced by others with a knife, and he couldn't care so much, and after looking at Zhang Jingxiu's injuries, he found that in addition to the skin injuries, this person's body and bones were still very weak.

After wrapping Zhang Jingxiu with a whip stick, Lao Langzhong kindly opened a warm prescription and handed it to Nantian and said: "Official, this little ......."

Lao Langzhong originally wanted to talk about the master, but when he saw the torture equipment in the Scripture Pavilion, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he changed his words and said: "This person's qi and blood are both injured inside and outside, and the little medical skill can only delay him for some time, but he can't be able to cure him completely." If you want to cure him, please plan ahead. ”

Nan Tianba took the prescription prescribed by Lao Lang and looked at it, "This is the prescription you prescribed, how long can this person live if he takes your medicine?"

The old man said respectfully: "As long as the official takes the medicine according to the villain's prescription, he can save the life of this ten-day, but after the ten-day, the little one can't say it well." ”

Nan Tianba smiled and said, "Ten days...... Hehe, having these ten days is enough. ”

After saying that, he waved his hand.

Lao Langzhong thought that he could go, and just wanted to bow down and retire, when suddenly several five big and three thick brocade guards came out of his side, took the old man away, and locked him in the firewood room of Kaiyuan Temple.

At this time, Zhang Jingxiu recovered a little bit after the diagnosis and treatment of the old man before, opened his eyes with great effort, and saw Nan Tianba standing in front of him at a glance.

Nan Tianba saw Zhang Jingxiu open his eyes, and said with a smile: "I usually can't see it, Zhang Gongzi, you are weak in literature and weakness, but you have a pair of iron bones and steel mouth, and now even the generals admire you a little." ”

Zhang Jingxiu gasped and said: "Gelding, don't say more, you just beat Zhang to death, and Zhang will never bow his head to his son." ”

Nan Tianba laughed and said, "Well said!"

As he spoke, he made a color at the brocade guard who followed him.

After Liu Zongqi and the other Jinyi guards saw it, they all retreated from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and guarded the door, leaving only Nan Tianba and Zhang Jingxiu in the house.

Nan Tianba pretended to be enthusiastic and helped Zhang Jingxiu up.

Zhang Jingxiu struggled, but he was powerless at this time.

On the contrary, after Nan Tianba helped Zhang Jingxiu to the chair on the side, he withdrew his acquaintance's hand.

said: "Zhang Gongzi, don't hide it, although Nan is serving in Dongchang, he is really half a martial arts person, and he has always admired those good men who are iron-clad and righteous, but even in the current rivers and lakes, there are few true heroes who can be like Zhang Gongzi and can be imprisoned without losing their integrity." ”

Zhang Jingxiu took a sip and said disdainfully: "You lackeys of the eunuch party also deserve to mention those heroes and heroes on the rivers and lakes." ”

Nan Tianba said awe-inspiringly: "Someone in the south eats the fortune of the Son of Heaven, why is it wrong to rebel against the thief, if it is according to Zhang Gongzi's remarks, Ling Zun was the first assistant of the dynasty before his death, wouldn't he be the biggest lackey eagle dog in the world." ”

Zhang Jingxiu heard that Nantian had insulted his father, and shouted angrily: "Shut up, my father has been a great hero admired by all the people for the country all his life, how can you be compared to you eunuchs who have brought disaster to the country and the people and endangered the society." ”

Nan Tianba asked with a smile: "Zhang Gongzi opened his mouth and closed his mouth to eunuch the party, I would like to ask Zhang Gongzi what is called the eunuch party, I will be appointed by heaven to serve as the commander of the 100 households in the East Factory, and according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, I will be under the leadership of Jiang Jingzhong, the factory prince, if this is a eunuch party, then in this world, people who are lower than Lord Jiang's official position are not all eunuchs." ”

Zhang Jingxiu said: "It is the eunuch party who endangers the society and kills Zhongliang, and it is the eunuch party who is in the same stream as Jiang Jingzhong. ”

Nan Tianba changed his words and said: "Regardless of whether someone in Nan is a eunuch or not, Nan wants to ask Zhang Gongzi, what crime should be committed if he abducts the imperial court with the law of the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhang Jingxiu said: "Repeat offenders who plundered the imperial court should be punished according to the law of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Nan Tianba praised: "Zhang Gongzi is full of poetry and books, and he is familiar with the punishment and is worthy of being a famous family, Nan admires it." Speaking of this, Nan Tianba said again: "Zhang Gongzi was sentenced to be outside the army, why did he appear in this Jiangnan again at this time, I don't need Nan to repeat it, Nan wants to ask those friends in Zhang Gongzi's mouth what the crime should be." ”

Zhang Jingxiu lowered his head, obviously stopped by Nan Tianba's words, if it was according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, these people who rescued him from the prison would naturally be a serious crime.

Nan Tianba didn't give him time, and said step by step: "Nan still wants to ask, if Ling Zun is still alive, will he sit back and watch these people who ignore the law of the country go unpunished." ”

This sentence even talked about Zhang Jingxiu's sore spot, because he knew that his father Zhang Juzheng had been upright for the country all his life, and he would never tolerate such violations of law and discipline.

Nan Tianba saw Zhang Jingxiu's dazed expression, secretly happy in his heart, and continued: "When Lord Zhang was alive, his reputation spread far and wide, and Nan was also very admired, after Lord Zhang died of illness, he was attacked and convicted, but it may not be that there is no day when he is wronged, if Zhang Gongzi dies at this time in order to shield some traitors and betrayed the party, I think that Lord Zhang's spirit in the sky will not rest in peace. ”

Zhang Jingxiu hugged his head and struggled: "Shut up! It's all you traitors who have deceived the world and killed my father, Jingxiu is incompetent, he can't clear the king's side on behalf of his father, and Zhaoxue for his father, so far he is ashamed to live and die." ”

Zhang Jingxiu said that he had a strength out of nowhere, and he was about to crash into a huge pillar in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

But how could Nan Tianba let him get his wish, without waiting for Zhang Jingxiu to hit the giant pillar, he had already caught the other party and pointed at the acupoint.

Nan Tianba shook his head and said, "Zhang Gongzi's stubbornness is really difficult for Nan. ”

Zhang Jingxiu said angrily: "Dog thief, kill me quickly." ”

Nan Tianba said with a smile: "Zhang Gongzi, you can't die at this time, you are willing to be in the company of the rebels and thieves regardless of the clarity of Lord Zhang's life, but the general can't bear to see Zhang Gongzi continue to sink into the mud." ”

"Zhang Gongzi, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, whether you want to or not, you can't escape the credit of exterminating the rebels. ”

Zhang Jingxiu was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Nan Tianba said proudly: "Zhang Gongzi, you don't have to think about it, the son of a criminal minister like you, and a fugitive wanted by the imperial court, why didn't the general kill you on the spot, but instead locked you up in the Kaiyuan Temple in Fuzhou City." ”
