Chapter 64 The Deaf Old Man
"If this person meets him in the future, you must be careful not to fall apart."
Zhou Yi had a faint premonition, Yang Zheng was ambitious, and what he wanted might be similar to that in northern Xinjiang.
The great figures of Shenjing are paying attention to the victory or defeat of the Royal Emperor and Empress Dowager Zhang. No one cares about the middle and lower-level officials, or mere gangs, raids, or gambling files.
One day, there will be changes in Shenjing, and Yang Zheng can do too much.
"Master, Yang Zheng's mother is just a maid who is a wife, and she is not even a concubine. She has a humble status in the Yang family."
Yuan Shun frowned slightly and said solemnly: "The great family of aristocratic families passed on their poetry and books, and the rules are strict. The most taboo thing is to violate the superiors. How can he allow him to suppress his legitimate son?"
"The so-called elders, legitimate children, nobles, and inferiors are the techniques of ruling the clan and fooling people. They can be followed but cannot be trapped."
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "These aristocratic families are the most realistic. As long as Yang Zheng can win and grow, and bring benefits to the family, the Yang family will continue to support him."
Yang Zheng started with Tianlao as the starting point and continued to carry forward the interests, gathering a large number of middle and lower-level officials.
This process is like a snowball, constantly adhering to various interests, and getting bigger and bigger.
When the snowball is rolling, the first person comes to the benefits. He does not want to, cannot, and dares not go down. The later person envies the first person and wants the snowball to continue rolling.
Eventually, either avalanches or pile up into mountains.
Zhou Yi waved his hand to stop Yuan Shun's questioning and stopped talking about Yang Zheng's affairs. Whether this person succeeds or fails, it is just a few hundred years of clouds.
"How are the prisoners under the prison in the prison?
Yuan Shun bowed and said, "Master, the dungeon is controlled by previous commanders. Those who deliver food are illiterate and deaf and mute. After investigating for a long time, he only knew that the people inside were still alive, about eighty or ninety years old."
Zhou Yi asked again: "Did the royal family pay attention to this person?"
"Dynasties have passed, and no one should have cared about it. In his later years, Emperor Chongming cultivated immortals and asked about the madness of Taoism. The imperial prison imprisoned many monks and Taoist sorcerers."
Yuan Shun replied: "According to the humble examination of the Jinyiwei Clan, Emperor Chongming left a will, saying that this person was extremely guilty and must be detained until death. Now the commander is observing this person, just following the old rules."
"interesting."
Zhou Yi's eyes flashed and his body flashed and left Yuan's mansion.
...
Sixteen years of orthodox.
September.
Caishikou execution ground.
Thousands of prisoners knelt neatly, crying, shouting for justice, begging for mercy, overwhelming the onlookers' discussions.
The big man who was tall in the past was now unkempt and cried bitterly.
The young man was still ignorant, and he felt that the outside was warmer than the sky, with many people and lively people, and he called his parents in a daze.
Zhou Yi stood in the crowd with his hands in his arms, looking calm.
The man in Feiyufu was standing beside him, holding the embroidered Chunjian in his arms and pushed Zhou Yi.
"Old Zheng, you have never enjoyed it in your life. Tomorrow, I will take you to the Jiafangsi. There are two or three thousand people in the Zhang family, and there are many beauties in the family. In the past, we are not qualified to take a look!"
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Zhou Yi turned his head and looked confused, and a buzzing sound came from his mouth, pointing to his ears.
"Lao Yu, what are you talking about with Lao Zheng? You are so old, deaf and dumb, you can't even know the difference between men and women!"
The words of the Jinyiwei made his colleagues laugh.
While talking.
It has arrived at noon.
The prison officer Yang Zheng loudly read out the twelve major crimes of the Zhang family, such as conspiracy, injustice, great disrespect, civil strife, etc., and threw down the sign of the killing.
"Execution!"
Crack! Crack! Crack...
Thousands of people were beheaded, and all the executioners of the God-Beijing were coming were not enough. On average, one person had to cut more than a dozen heads.
As a result, blood kept gushing from the execution ground, like fireworks. Every time someone could gush out from a distance, it would cause cheers from the people.
No matter what crime the Zhang family committed, it is worth being happy as long as it is to behead the official!
At the end of the execution.
The entire Caishikou is dyed red and there is nowhere to stay. If you step on it, you can stick the plasma to the soles of the shoe.
"Let's go and have a drink on Chunfeng Tower!"
Lao Yu waved his hand and more than a dozen people left rampantly.
On the way, both the people and officials hurriedly avoided each other when they met. After the reliance of two generations of emperors, the power of the Jinyiwei was only stronger than that of Taizu.
The leader of the Shenjing Ganglu is Happy Forest.
Chunfeng Tower is no longer as grand as before, and the guests are sparse, so they are not a luxury customer when they are seen.
It has been three consecutive years and no general election for the courtesan has been held.
Kuaihuolin controlled the population transactions of Yaxing and intercepted the girls with high qualifications from the source. At this time, Chunfenglou chose the courtesan, which was a joke.
Lao Yu brought his colleagues to Chunfeng Tower because Yuan Shun, the commander of the Jinyiwei, said bluntly that he did not like Happy Forest.
The people from the Jinyiwei only come to Chunfeng Tower.
In the private room.
Zhou Yi was at the last place, devoted himself to eating and drinking, and did not talk to his colleagues.
Others didn't care. "Old Zheng" was deaf and dumb, and had difficulty communicating. It was just because the direct commander and commander were in charge of him, so everyone could not treat him unfairly.
After the dishes were five flavors, the wine was half over, and everyone slowly let go of their words.
Lao Yu said, "I opened my eyes today. The Queen Mother has only been in a mourning for a year, and the current mother tribe is so bloodless."
The Zhengorous Emperor ordered the execution of the nine tribes of the Zhang family, which shocked the court and the people. Many old ministers of the late emperor knelt down and begged for mercy.
The chief assistant Yu Sudu wrote a letter to persuade him to kill the nine biological mothers, which would hinder His Majesty's wiseness.
As we can see today, the orthodox emperor disagreed with the opposition and ordered Yang Zheng, who had made great contributions to the removal of the "Zhang Party", to be the official. The Zhang family and his followers were killed, and the women were exiled to the Jiaofangsi.
The Zhang family, which was famous for all dynasties, has since disappeared.
"Your Majesty has been suffering for fifteen years since he ascended the throne. Who wouldn't have to take ruthless action?"
The Jinyiwei next to him said, "The Zhang family has been prosperous for too long and acted too arrogantly. It is said that shortly after the Queen Mother's mourning, Zhang Heng sent someone to talk to His Majesty. The appointment and removal of officials in the court must be discussed with him first."
The colleague said in horror: "Is there any more to do?"
Zhang Heng is the head of the Zhang family, the elder brother of Empress Dowager Zhang, and the uncle of the Zhengorth Emperor.
"Do you know why Zhang Heng was not executed today?"
The Jinyiwei said: "Commander Yuan invited Lao Tai Doctor Ge to hang his life with ginseng and golden needles. Liu Lao Dao personally cut 10,000 knives, called Thousand Knives to cut them into pieces!"
"hiss!"
Everyone took a breath of air conditioning, and then praised His Majesty for his wiseness and that the Zhang Party should be punished for chaotic country.
The Jinyiwei was the personal army of the emperor, and the current commander Yuan Shun was even more agile to the orthodox emperor and had no favoritism towards the Zhang Dang.
After the banquet.
Lao Yu and others led the girl upstairs, and Zhou Yi waved his hand and said goodbye.
Back home all the way.
The unique courtyard of Dehuaifang is seen planting a few trees at the door, but it covers the yard tightly.
Zhou Yi has been comprehending the formation for more than ten years and has learned some ways.
You can place objects in special rules, or make people lose their sense of direction, cover up their sight, or make the house ventilated and smooth, and slightly accelerate the efficiency of practice.
The next day.
Zhou Yi came to the imperial prison early and went to the kitchen to get the food box.
The imperial prison was drowsy and yin.
Even in the hot summer, you can feel the coldness in the station soaking bones.
If the cruelty of the Heavenly Prison is one, the imperial prison is at least ten, and there are countless ghosts floating around in all directions.
Zhou Yi carried the food box and greeted someone when he met him.
When he saw the Jinyiwei interrogating the prisoner, he was blinded and had no interest and went straight to the deepest part of the imperial prison.
When the Jinyiwei on duty saw Zhou Yi coming, he opened the iron lock silently. The four of them worked together to lift the steel lid, revealing the black dust downward corridor.
Zhou Yi got in and walked in with a familiar path, walked on the bluestone stairs, and came to the second floor of the underground of Zhaozhu.
All the way to the bottom of the cave, I saw a large iron cage made of fine steel.
There are bronze lamps on the four walls of beast heads, and with the faint light, you can vaguely see figures sitting cross-legged in the cage.
He had white hair, three feet long beard, and his Taoist robe was already half rotten.
