Chapter 109: The Criminal
In the meeting hall of the General Military Mansion, Wu Zhengzheng was sitting angrily in the lobby. Tianci, Tan Yunyue, County Yin Liu Zhen and other civil and military officials stood in the hall. The atmosphere was very tense. The soldiers and guards on both sides were not at ease.
Dare to come out.
With a sound of "Cang!", Wu Zheng slammed the gavel on the case, pointed at Tianci's nose and cursed: "You little Quyang general soldier are too arrogant, you dare to make decisions without authorization
, promised Tufan that he would hand me over to them as an imperial official and secret envoy? What do you mean?! Are you going to rebel?!"
"Come on, get this rebel!" Wu Zheng roared in the lobby.
But none of the soldiers standing on both sides moved. Wu Zheng looked at Deputy Commander Tan angrily, thinking that this is your chance, it depends on what you do.
However, Tan Yunyue quickly lowered his head in embarrassment and pretended not to notice. He knew very well that the officers and soldiers in the General Military Mansion only obeyed the orders of General Zhang, and others could not be mobilized.
When the twenty bodyguards Wu Zheng brought with him saw no one making any move, and when they saw Wu Zheng signaling to them with his eyes, some of them stood up and wanted to step forward and grab Zhang Tianci.
"Wait a minute, I have something to say." Zhang Tianci said calmly.
"I don't dare to take officials of the imperial court without permission, but criminal officials of the imperial court are punishable by everyone. You shouldn't have any doubts about this, right?" Tianci turned to everyone and said.
"What do you mean?" Wu Zheng asked sharply.
"I would like to ask Mr. Wu if he ever served as the Superintendent of Northern Shanxi, responsible for the production and transportation of iron mines and weapons factories in northern Shanxi?" Tianci asked Wu Zheng.
"So what?"
"Bang!" With a sound, Tianci threw five account books into the lobby and said sternly: "This is a good thing you have done! Mr. County Yin, please read the contents of this account book to everyone." Tianci
With that said, he handed an account book to Liu County Yin.
After Liu County Yin took the account book, he began to read it loudly to everyone. He had just read less than a page, and everyone in the hall was shocked and started talking. Wu Zheng suddenly turned pale. He didn't understand why Zhang Tianci had such a thing in his hand.
This thing, haven't I already put all these things away?
"What are you talking about? This is slander and slander!" Wu Zheng shouted angrily.
Tianci picked up the two account books without haste and handed them to the two guards nearby for them to read.
At this time, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly broke in from outside the lobby. Nearly a thousand fully armed cavalry soldiers, armed with sharp knives, filed in through the lobby door and soon surrounded the lobby tightly. And Liu
Jiu Jin personally led more than fifty people to stand outside the gate.
After the soldiers were all in place, Tianci turned around, pointed at Wu Zheng, and said seriously: "Get this treasonous official for me!"
As soon as Tianci finished speaking, Liu Jijin and all the other officers and soldiers were still standing where they were and did not make any move.
When Wu Zheng saw this, his tense heart relaxed a little, with a proud look on his face.
Tianci turned to the twenty bodyguards and said: "Officials of the imperial court, I am telling you to take action. Wu Zheng, the guilty minister, led you and others to the Western Regions this time. He used the name of the imperial court to serve his own interests and destroy both sides.
The agreement on armistice between the two countries has caused disputes between the two countries. This is adding guilt to crime. You have witnessed these situations with your own eyes. Now I will give you an opportunity to capture the guilty minister and try and punish him in accordance with the law. You can forget the blame.
, all exempt!"
The twenty bodyguards were fully aware of their situation. If they did not take action at this time, they would jointly discuss the crime with Lord Wu Zheng and be punished by Zhang Tianci's officers and soldiers.
No one wanted to be punished for sitting together with the criminal Wu Zheng without knowing it. The two leading bodyguards exchanged glances with each other, then drew their swords and waved their hands, and the twenty bodyguards rushed towards Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng was shocked at this time. He did not expect that the people he had brought with him would suddenly turn against him. He immediately took out his sword from his waist and started fighting with the guards. In an instant, the room was full of swords, swords, clanking, and they were killing each other like crazy.
Tianci called everyone to step aside and sit back and watch the tiger fight. He knew that Wu Zheng, the Lan Ling guard officer, was very skilled in martial arts. If his soldiers were to come forward to arrest him, there would be many casualties, and now there are twenty
An imperial guard officer took action, but it was expected that Wu Zheng would be captured without even a stick of incense.
These masters were really powerful. Within a short time, they subdued Wu Zheng. There were still about a dozen guards standing in the circle, but they hadn't taken action yet.
After Wu Zheng was tied up, Liu Jijin and others took him down for interrogation.
Tianci returned to the lobby, sat back on his handsome chair, looked around at everyone below, and then said: "Tufan's team is approaching the city, besieging the city, and asking us to hand over Wu Zheng and Yuwen Haotian.
, what do you think, do you have any suggestions?”
Tan Yunyue was still secretly rejoicing. Fortunately, he didn't listen to Wu Zheng and take action against Tianci. Otherwise, he would be captured like Wu Zheng now. He cleared his throat and said: "This matter is all decided by General Zhang. I
No comments."
Tianci looked at Liu County Yin again, and he shook his head to express no objection. Tianci added: "These two people are criminal officials of the imperial court. They should not be handed over to Tufan, but Yuwen Haotian was poisoned and died.
He is already dead. I think he is already dead anyway, so it might as well be handed over to Tufan. As for Wu Zheng, after the interrogation is over, we will see how the crime should be punished according to law before we make a decision. What do you think?"
Everyone agreed. At this time, four soldiers brought in a pine coffin. After the lid was lifted, everyone saw a corpse lying inside. It was Yuwen Haotian. His face was gray and his lips were black. He was already dead.
Been dead for a long time.
At this time, a soldier walked into the lobby and walked straight to Tianci. This man was Chen Gengsheng. He leaned over and whispered in Tianci's ear: "Sir, a carriage has been modified according to your arrangement. Now
It has stopped outside the gate." Tianci nodded slightly and told him to go down and make preparations and act according to the plan.
Tianci ordered the soldiers to cover the coffin and carry it to the carriage outside in preparation for handing it over to Tufan.
After a while, Liu Jijin came to the court and reported: "My lord, the guilty minister Wu Zheng, has confessed truthfully and signed his confession. Please take a look at it."
Tianci took the confession, read it carefully, put it away and put it in his arms. Then he said to Liu Jijin: "Take the prisoner and come with me to the tower to negotiate with Tufan."
After that, Tianci led a group of people and climbed onto the tower again, preparing to give General Dong Zanlang of Tufan a clear answer.
