Chapter 198 Hey, isn't it bad to live! 【Twelve thousand
After listening to the words of Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan, all the students couldn't help but show excitement on their faces, and shouted with great excitement: "Stop the Jin Yiwei and ask for an explanation, ask for an explanation!"
Li Huan and others were leading Xie Di, Xie Qian and others towards Xie's home. A group of guards in white brocade uniforms roared into Yuyao City, obviously attracting the attention of many people.
After all, local counties like Yuyao have never seen so many Jin Yiwei, and many people have never even seen Jin Yiwei.
After all, even if Jin Yiwei has personnel stationed in such places and counties, they are usually spies and the like, and there are almost no Jin Yiwei on the surface.
This is like many people in later generations knowing the existence of national security personnel, but only a few people have seen them.
Almost 90% of the people in Yuyao County had never seen anyone from Jinyiwei, so they were surprised and curious to see a group of people like Li Huan roaring past.
In addition, Zhao Yi and Lin Pingzhi each led a team of Jin Yiwei into Yuyao County. Although the number of people could not be compared with Li Huan's team, they also attracted the attention of many people.
In this case, there is always someone who can recognize the Jin Yiwei. Word of mouth spread, and soon many people knew that a large number of Jin Yiwei had entered the city.
Li Huan took the lead. Many people on the long street quickly evaded when they heard the noise. Even if they could not recognize the identities of Li Huan and others, just seeing so many people coming on horseback, a fool also knew that such a cavalry team was definitely not ordinary people. If they were
If I were hit, I'm afraid my death would be in vain.
Therefore, wherever Li Huan and others passed, no one dared to block the road ahead.
However, at this moment, Li Huan saw dozens of figures blocking the road ahead. When he saw clearly the clothes of those blocking the way, Li Huan couldn't help but frown.
Wearing a green shirt, just looking at the scholarly energy, you can tell that they must be a group of scholars.
To be honest, Li Huan was really curious. Could it be that the scholars he killed in Muzhai Academy were not ruthless enough? Or was it because the news that he had killed so many scholars had not spread, so why were there still scholars coming to block his way?
Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan looked at the Jin Yiwei team that was getting closer and closer. Although they hadn't arrived yet, the ground shook, and a strong evil aura hit their faces.
If this were an ordinary citizen, they would have been so frightened that they would have crawled to the side and hid.
However, Song Guangsheng, Tan Yuan and others suppressed their fear of the roaring horses and tried their best to stay calm and block the Jinyiwei's path.
Many students from the county school had a look of panic on their faces. Anyone faced with the sight of dozens or hundreds of war horses roaring towards them would subconsciously feel fear.
Song Guangsheng shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, everyone, don't forget, we are all scholars of the Ming Dynasty. You all have fame and honor. No one dares to do anything to you."
Hearing Song Guangsheng's shouting, the students who were initially a little panicked suddenly became more courageous and secretly encouraged themselves: "I have a great reputation. It can be seen that no one dares to do anything to me if I don't accept the official title..."
As if they were hypnotizing themselves, the mental outlook of all the students suddenly changed. They held their chests high and looked at the imperial guards roaring in front of them.
The two Jinyi Guards who were rushing at the front couldn't help shouting loudly when they saw this situation: "Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly, the Jinyiwei are handling the case, and everyone else is waiting to get out of the way."
At this time, there were still about dozens of feet away from these students blocking the road. Li Huan looked at the dozens of students blocking the road in front of him with great interest.
Xie Di, Xie Qian and a few other scholars who were lucky enough to survive saw strange expressions on their faces when they saw the students blocking the way.
If they had not personally experienced Li Huan's merciless massacre before, they would definitely not be worried that Li Huan would rush into the students blocking the road ahead.
But now, no one would doubt Li Huan's courage as to whether he would order someone to hit the students who were blocking his way.
As long as Li Huan is willing, he can imagine what will happen to these students who block his way, even with his eyes closed.
"I am the professor of Yuyao County, Shaoxing Prefecture, Song Guangsheng. I am here with all the students from the county to ask for an explanation."
Song Guangsheng shouted loudly.
Li Huan heard it clearly, but there was a look of surprise on his face.
Jin Yiwei, who was riding forward, had no intention of stopping without Li Huan's order, but continued to rush forward.
Seeing the war horses roaring towards them, Song Guangsheng and others opened their eyes wide with disbelief on their faces, as if they couldn't believe that the Jin Yiwei opposite them seemed to have not seen their presence and just rushed up without stopping at all.
means below.
"ah!"
The war horses were so close that one student finally couldn't bear the pressure and screamed, rolling and crawling towards both sides. Even Song Guangsheng was so frightened that he threw himself aside and fell to the ground with a thud.
A strong wind roared past, and the sound of horse hooves came from behind. Song Guangsheng was thrown to the ground and suffered severe pain all over his body.
These Jin Yiwei who follow Li Huan are all carefully selected elites, and many of them have even experienced several life and death difficulties with Li Huan. For them, as long as there is no order from Li Huan, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead,
They will also rush in without hesitation.
Not to mention they are just a group of soldiers blocking the road.
They had just killed hundreds of scholars not long ago, so in comparison, these scholars who were blocking the road were nothing.
If you dare to stop Jin Yiwei from doing his errands, you will be killed on this long street. That is not a pity to die.
Just like an emergency report that has been expedited for 800 miles, if someone is hit and killed on the long street, his death is in vain.
Jin Yiwei handles cases in the same way. Anyone who dares to obstruct will be killed without mercy.
Bang, bang
After all, it was impossible for all of the dozens of students to react in time to dodge the roaring horses, and were just knocked away.
You can imagine what it would be like to be knocked out by a high-speed horse. Two or three students flew several feet away on the spot, and then fell heavily to the ground. They twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
Several Jinyi guards opened the way, and Li Huan and his party whizzed past. The long streets on both sides, on the ground, and in the corners were all filled with extremely embarrassed county school students.
Because Tan Yuan was too slow to dodge, he was directly trampled on one of his legs by the horse's hoof. The calf bone was crushed by the horse's hoof on the spot. At this moment, he was holding his leg and wailing in pain.
"My legs, my legs..."
The Jin Yiwei roared past, leaving only a mess, or rather a wailing sound.
Only three of the dozens of students were actually killed. The rest reacted quickly enough and avoided it in time. However, some of them were somewhat injured due to their hasty dodge.
Tan Yuan's injuries were the most serious, and his wailing was the loudest.
Originally, Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan were quite prestigious figures in Yuyao County. It can be said that many people in the city recognized Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan.
Song Guangsheng's status as a Jinshi is quite noble in Yuyao County. It is even more noble than the Master of Juren. Especially, Song Guangsheng once served as a capital official for a period of time. Later, I don't know what happened, he returned to Yuyao County and became a county school teacher.
edict.
Tan Yuan is a scholar, and his family is more or less a local squire family in Yuyao County. The two of them blocked the long street with so many county school students and shouted slogans. Naturally,
It attracted the attention of many people.
In the eyes of the common people, with such big figures as Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan, and so many distinguished intellectuals, blocking this long street, no one would dare to do anything to them.
However, what shocked countless people and their jaws was that the guards in uniforms who were supposed to stop had no intention of stopping at all, but just ran straight into Song Guangsheng and others who were blocking the road.
At the scene just now, many people were so frightened that they closed their eyes. Some people opened their eyes wide and saw with their own eyes the scene where several students were knocked out.
A large mouthful of blood spurted out, and a large living person was knocked out and then fell to the ground. The scene was really shocking.
When the sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, everything seemed to be in a dream. Song Guangsheng, who had just climbed up from the ground, looked at the embarrassed students around him, and then looked at Tan Yuan who had broken a leg. Song Guangsheng's heart was filled with anger.
I think he once served as a censor in the capital, and the officials of the Jinyiwei would avoid him when they saw him. When did the Jinyiwei become so arrogant that they dared to directly attack them, the distinguished scholars, in broad daylight?
"Is there any more royal method!"
Song Guangsheng shouted angrily, his face full of anger, and he shouted angrily.
"Jiaoyu, Jiaoyu, come and see, Sun Qiping is dead."
At this moment, scholar Ren Zheng was lifting up a student whose chest was collapsed and whose mouth was full of blood. His face was full of fear and anger and he shouted to Song Guangsheng.
Ren Zheng and Sun Qiping were close friends. Seeing that their friend was taking in too much air and not giving out too much, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
Song Guangsheng came to his senses and ran over quickly. He looked at Sun Qiping who fell in Ren Zheng's arms. Sun Qiping couldn't help coughing up blood and his face was pale.
Sun Qiping opened his eyes wide, filled with confusion. When he saw Song Guangsheng, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. He vomited blood and said in a trembling voice: "Instructions..."
Sun Qiping was the only one of the three soldiers who was knocked out and was still breathing. At this moment, Song Guangsheng looked at Sun Qiping's angry face and said, "Sun Sheng, I will definitely seek justice for you."
After listening to Song Guangsheng's words, Sun Qiping was about to say something, but suddenly after a violent cough, he collapsed and died.
"Brother Sun, Brother Sun..."
Ren Zheng's distance swayed, and apart from causing more blood to flow out of Sun Qiping's mouth, Sun Qiping didn't react at all.
Song Guangsheng tested Sun Qiping's breath, sighed, shook his head and said: "Sun Qiping is dead."
Ren Zheng suddenly raised his head and looked at Song Guangsheng and said: "Jiaoyu, why, Brother Sun is a scholar with a great reputation. He doesn't have to bow to the county magistrate even when he meets him. Why can those guards in uniforms rush into us unscrupulously? They are just
A lowly warrior..."
Listening to Ren Zheng's unwilling words, students all around stood up from the ground, and all the extremely embarrassed students also turned their attention to Song Guangsheng.
All are inferior, but only those who study are high. This is the understanding they have accepted since they were studying. In their eyes, the status of the warriors of the Ming Dynasty is much humbler than that of scholars like them. Although the Jin Yiwei are the emperor's personal soldiers, they are also a group with a slightly special status.
Just taxi soldiers.
As for them, they are the disciples of the future emperor, the white jade pillars of the Ming Dynasty. The governance of the country and the safety of the people depend on them. When these warriors see them, shouldn't they bow their heads in obedience?
Song Guangsheng looked at the doubts in the eyes of these students, and his heart trembled suddenly, and the anger in his heart became even stronger.
It's all Li Huan's fault, and it's all the blame on those lawless Jin Yiwei. These are the seeds of reading in the Ming Dynasty. They may be the pillars of the Ming Dynasty in the future. Today, the Jin Yiwei dared to rush into them like this. This kind of thing is simply appalling. Song Guang
As a person who was born to teach, you must not ignore it, and you must ask Li Huan for an explanation.
First, Su Kui, Xizhen, Fang Kai, Jiang Ying and others were killed by Li Huan, and then he ran into these students with his horse, so that three students, Sun Qiping, died on the spot, one by one.
At this time, Tan Yuan's broken leg had been bandaged. Although it was still extremely painful, he still endured the severe pain and walked over with the help of two students.
"Instructions, Jin Yiwei rode his horse to kill a student from the county school, and even trampled on my leg with his horse. I will definitely not be able to swallow this tone. No matter how lawless he, Li Huan, is, he still wants to give an explanation to all the students."
As for Tan Yuan alone, to be honest, Tan Yuan really didn't dare to go to trouble Li Huan, who was the commander of the Jinyi Guards and had a notorious reputation.
But the reason why Tan Yuan said that was entirely because there were dozens of county school students. As long as these county school students were bundled together, they would be outnumbered and there would be no fear of what Li Huan could do to them.
A student timidly said: "Song Jiaoyu, Tan Jiaoyu, those scholars previously said that Li Huan killed many people, could he..."
When Song Guangsheng heard this, he immediately glared at the student and said, "Lei Ming, Li Huan killed hundreds of soldiers at once. Do you believe this ridiculous thing?"
As he spoke, Song Guangsheng squinted his eyes and said, "Are you afraid?"
Suddenly all the students' eyes turned to Lei Ming. Under the gaze of all the students, Lei Ming immediately said: "Teacher, the students are not afraid, they are just worried..."
Song Guangsheng waved his sleeves and said: "Since you are no longer afraid, then go with me to find Li Huan. Your classmate cannot die in vain."
As he spoke, Song Guangsheng stared at the crowd and said, "Don't you want to seek justice for your classmates who died unjustly?"
Looking at the three people Sun Qiping lying in a pool of blood, they were in the same county and studied together in the county school. They still had some feelings for each other. Now that Song Guangsheng said this, even if
The students who had doubts all turned to Song Guangsheng enthusiastically and said, "Please ask me to take us with you."
Song Guangsheng took a deep breath, glanced at the students around him, and said, "Everyone, go find some door panels, carry the bodies of Sun Qiping and others, and follow me to find those royal guards."
Some of the people around them contributed door panels to their homes. They quickly gathered three door panels, lifted up the bodies of Sun Qiping and the others, and strode towards the direction where the Jin Yiwei had left.
But behind Song Guangsheng and dozens of students, there were a group of ordinary people watching the fun.
This is big news. How many years have passed, and in public, someone has killed those high-ranking scholars in the county school without any care.
In the eyes of the common people, this can be said to be a huge thing. You must know that in many villages and towns, there may not be a scholar. It can be said that any scholar in the countryside is the most noble existence and is envied by countless people.
As a result, several people were killed on the streets today. Anyone who is a little curious will follow people like Song Guangsheng to see what the outcome of today's incident will be.
But when Lin Pingzhi went to Xing's house to capture Xing Kang, the steward was frightened by Jin Yiwei's methods and hurriedly took Lin Pingzhi and other Jin Yiwei to look for Xing Kang.
In a bedroom of the Xing family, the bedroom is spacious, and two graceful girls are serving it carefully.
Xing Tai frowned and looked at Xing Kang who woke up. Hearing Xing Kang say that Jinyiwei killed someone, he immediately waved his hand, while the two maids on the side withdrew.
Looking at Xing Kang, Xing Tai said very unconcernedly: "Kang'er, what trouble did you get into, and what does it have to do with Jin Yiwei?"
Hearing this, Xing Kang said with a bit of fear on his face: "Father, Jin Yiwei suddenly appeared in Muzhai Academy today. Before the child could figure out what was going on, he vaguely heard Su Kui and Xi Zhen.
People shouted to besiege the Jinyiwei commander Li Huan, but Li Huan went on a killing spree without any humanity..."
As he spoke, Xing Kang trembled and said: "Dead, all dead, wuwuwu, if the child hadn't run so fast, I'd probably have been hacked to death by those Jinyi guards."
Xing Tai opened his eyes wide and looked at Xing Kang in disbelief. If he didn't know his son's nature, Xing Tai would have doubted whether Xing Kang was lying.
Xing Tai grunted, swallowed his saliva, stared at Xing Kang and said: "You said that Jin Yiwei went on a killing spree against many literati and killed many people?"
Xing Kang nodded and said: "I don't know exactly how many people died, but there are at least several hundred people. I'm afraid less than half of them can escape."
Now Xing Tai took a deep breath. When he looked at Xing Kang again, he felt a bit lucky in his heart. Fortunately, his son had escaped. If he had been killed by Jin Yiwei.
Thinking of this, Xing Tai couldn't help but feel scared. The Xing family had high hopes for Xing Kang, hoping that Xing Kang could become a high school scholar and continue the glory of their Xing family.
"Jinyiwei, Li Huan!"
Whispering Li Huan's name, Xing Tai said to Xing Kang with a solemn look on his face: "Kang'er, remember, you didn't go anywhere today, you were always at home. No matter who comes to ask you, you always
Remember to say this and never let anyone know that you went to Muzhai Academy today..."
With a bang, someone could hear the door being kicked open, and then a clear voice said: "Xing Kang, Jin Yiwei has taken someone, come with us!"
This sudden sound startled Xing Kang and Xing Tai, father and son, and they subconsciously looked towards the door.
They saw several Jin Yiwei staring at them with cold expressions.
"Ah, father, save me!"
When he saw Lin Pingzhi and others, the previous scene of the Jin Yiwei massacring the scholars came to mind again. Xing Kang screamed and instinctively hid behind Xing Tai.
Xing Tai's expression also changed greatly, but after all, he had been in charge of the Xing family for so many years, and he had dealt with all kinds of people. After the initial shock, Xing Tai calmed down, took a few steps forward, and faced Lin
Pingzhi cupped his hands and said: "My lord, I'm Xingtai, have you made a mistake? My son didn't go anywhere today..."
While talking, Xing Tai took out a silver note from his sleeve and quietly stuffed it into Lin Pingzhi's hand. Lin Pingzhi lowered his head and saw that it was a thousand-tael silver note.
Lin Pingzhi was secretly surprised. With such a thousand-tael banknote, a family of four would not be able to spend enough money in a lifetime.
But it's not like Lin Pingzhi has never seen money. The Lin family is well-known and powerful in Fuzhou. Not to mention their wealth, they still have hundreds of thousands of taels.
Ordinary money really couldn't arouse Lin Pingzhi's reaction. Lin Pingzhi was just surprised by Xing Tai's generosity in making a move, which cost him thousands of taels of silver notes.
Xing Tai had been paying attention to Lin Pingzhi's expression. When he saw Lin Pingzhi's expression of surprise, Xing Tai was secretly happy.
So what about Jin Yiwei, he is still not moved by Yinzi. He firmly believes that there is nothing in this world that Yinzi can't handle.
But the next moment, Lin Pingzhi sneered and said: "Take Xing Kang away for me."
Xing Tai couldn't help being shocked when he heard this. He subconsciously stopped in front of the two imperial guards and shouted: "Stop, you guys stop..."
These Jin Yiwei had been following Li Huan in the capital during this period. They had not raided any high-ranking official's house or arrested any high-ranking official.
Even the hereditary nobleman arrested a few people. This is just a powerful place in Yuyao County, and it is nothing compared to the people they arrested.
"Get out of my way, if you dare to stop the Jin Yiwei from handling the case again, you will be killed without mercy."
A captain in Jinyi swung the scabbard in his hand and hit Xing Tai hard, causing Xing Tai to stumble and fall to the ground.
Immediately, two Jinyi guards stepped forward and lifted Xing Kang up like a chicken.
Lin Pingzhi glanced at Xing Tai who was lying on the ground, turned around and left, while Xing Kang was carried out by two Jinyi guards.
Xing Kang was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. He shouted at Xing Tai, who was lying on the ground dizzy: "Daddy, save me, daddy, help me, they will kill the child..."
Several servants stepped forward and helped Xing Tai up. Xing Tai looked at Xing Kang being dragged away, opened his mouth several times, and finally suppressed the urge to let the servants step forward to snatch him until Xing Kang could no longer be seen.
Xing Kang's cry for help seemed to be echoing in his ears.
Xing Tai's heart was full of anger and he had no way to vent it. Suddenly he glanced at the steward Hou Qing with a bruised nose and face. He immediately shouted angrily at Hou Qing: "Hou Qing, I asked you to guard the door of the house. This is how you guard the door for me."
Of?"
Hou Qing lay down in front of Xing Tai and kowtowed: "Master, it's not that the little one refuses to guard the door. It's actually that these Jin Yiwei are not human beings. They know how to kill people. Xiao Liuzi was disemboweled just because he said one more word."
Belly……"
Xing Tai couldn't help but shrink his eyes, as if a basin of ice water was poured on his head. The anger in his heart disappeared all of a sudden. He only looked at Hou Qing with endless solemnity and said: "Go, check for me, who did Jin Yiwei's people arrest?
What are you doing now? If you can't handle it, don't come back."
Hou Qing responded and ran out rolling and crawling.
Lin Pingzhi ran to four of the eight families of Xing family, Cao family, Qu family, Qiao family, and Yuyao in just an hour, and took away several scholars who had fled home from these families.
Caught among them.
Of course, bloodshed was inevitable, especially in the Qiao family. In the list Li Huan handed over to Lin Pingzhi, Qiao Gong was the only son of the head of the Qiao family. To be precise, he was the only direct heir to the next generation of the Qiao family.
It is conceivable that under such circumstances, Jinyiwei came to arrest the only direct heir of the Qiao family. It would be strange if the Qiao family could agree.
When Lin Pingzhi walked out of Qiao's house with dozens of blood-stained royal guards, there was a burst of mournful wailing and painful crying from Qiao's house.
Xiaoqi, a member of the Imperial Guard, said to Lin Pingzhi: "Master Baihu is too kind-hearted. According to the words of his subordinates, the Qiao family dared to lead people to besiege us. It would not be an exaggeration to kill them directly. These places are powerful.
In this family, no one's hands are stained with blood, and even if they are all killed, no one will be unjustly accused."
Lin Pingzhi shook his head and said: "Don't forget, there are still a few people on the list that your Excellency gave us who have not been caught. It has taken us so long to catch these people. Once the news spreads, those people will definitely
If you know how to hide, it won't be so easy to arrest someone again."
The little flag officer of Jinyiwei was stunned when he heard this and said: "Master Baihu is still thoughtful, but the lower official was reckless."
Lin Pingzhi said with a smile: "Okay, let's all work harder and quickly complete the tasks assigned by the adults."
Qiao Songnian fell in a pool of blood, with an obvious cut on his forehead. The corpses of several strong servants fell beside him.
A woman was lying on Qiao Songnian's body, wailing and crying: "Master, master, wake up. What will happen to me if you die?"
Everyone thought Qiao Songnian was dead, but under the shaking of the woman, Qiao Songnian coughed and woke up. It turned out that Qiao Songnian was hit by the servant's body when he ordered the servant to stop the Jin Yiwei from taking someone.
Then he fainted.
So much so that Jin Yiwei didn't pay much attention at that time and just thought Qiao Songnian was dead.
At this moment, Qiao Songnian woke up, looking at the corpses on the ground, and thinking of his only son who was taken away, endless anger filled his eyes.
Qiao Gong was the only child of his Qiao family. If his son died, how could he have the face to meet the ancestors of the Qiao family?
The woman on the side looked at Qiao Songnian and cried: "Master, Gong'er... Gong'er, he..."
Qiao Songnian was upset and shouted angrily: "That's enough, why are you crying? If you want my Qiao family to die off, no one can do it."
At this moment, a servant ran over and said: "Master, master, the heads of the Xing family, Qu family, Cao family, Han family and other families are here!"
"What!"
Qiao Songnian's expression changed slightly, then he showed a bit of joy and strode outside.
Soon he saw several figures, none of them were Xing Tai, Qu Zhen, Cao Zhen, Han Wu and others he was familiar with.
Xingtai and others were also sharp-eyed and immediately saw the corpses lying on the floor in the Qiao family lobby, and even Qiao Songnian covered in blood.
Qiao Songnian looked at Xing Tai and the others and said calmly: "If what I expected is true, some of your children will be kidnapped by the Jin Yiwei."
Xingtai and others nodded. If their direct descendants hadn't been kidnapped, they wouldn't have come together to look for Qiao Songnian.
I just didn't expect that Qiao Songnian looked worse than them. Xing Tai was hit hard by the Jin Yiwei with his scabbard. But looking at Qiao Songnian, all these people were dead, even if there were no
After seeing it with their own eyes, they were able to figure out what happened in the Qiao family compound.
Qiao Songnian noticed the expressions of several people and immediately said without concealment: "You all know that I only have a son, Gong'er, and the Jin Yiwei people want to take Gong'er away. Even if I risk my life, I won't do it."
agree."
As he spoke, Qiao Songnian said with a flash of hatred in his eyes: "I have a great destiny, so I shouldn't take my life away. Otherwise, I'm afraid they will only be able to see my body now."
Xing Tai took a deep breath, looked at Qiao Songnian and said, "Brother Qiao, we are not outsiders. Let's just talk openly. Is there any way you can rescue the kidnapped children from each family?"
Cao Zhen, Qu Zhen, and Han Wu didn't speak. Maybe they had ideas, but just by looking at their reactions, it was clear that they didn't want to be the instigators.
Qiao Songnian saw the looks of these people in his eyes and sneered: "Since everyone refuses to pick the one, I'm going to risk everything anyway, and if I can't save Gong'er, my Qiao family will be extinct, and this old man is the one picking the one."
As he spoke, Qiao Songnian stared at several people with a sinister look on his face and said, "I just don't know if you dare to fight with me. If you succeed, everything will be fine. If you fail, haha, your family will be ruined..."
Listening to what Qiao Songnian said, the expressions of Qu Zhen, Cao Zhen, Han Wu, and Xing Tai suddenly became serious. Their family has a big business, and it can be said that they have many concerns about everything they do. Some people are willing to risk their lives.
, there are also people who are unwilling.
Qu Zhen and Han Wu shook their heads and said, "I'm sorry, this matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by me. We will discuss it after we go back."
All fools know that these two people's words are just excuses. They are not that crazy to risk their families and lives for just a few family members.
Watching Qu Zhen and Han Wu leave, Cao Zhen who stayed behind sneered and said with a bit of disdain: "You really don't have any courage at all. I don't believe they can't realize the purpose of Jin Yiwei to take people.
At this time, you still have a lucky mentality, do you really think that if they are honest and do nothing, that lunatic Li Huan will let them go?"
As he spoke, Cao Zhen said to Xing Tai: "I don't know what news you have all inquired about, but I found out that that lunatic Li Huan massacred hundreds of students in Muzhai Academy and labeled those students as rebels.
, even Duke Mu Zhai was captured by Li Huan on charges of treason."
Xing Tai's expression did not change, he obviously already knew the information. After all, he was a local snake in Yuyao County. If he really checked it carefully, these are public information and they really have not been checked.
Qiao Songnian was slightly startled. He really didn't know this, because when Qiao Gong fled back to the house, Qiao Songnian was not at home, and he had just returned not long ago.
As a result, when he came back, he met Lin Pingzhi and his Jin Yiwei coming to fetch someone, so he had no time to collect this information, let alone knew about it.
Hearing what Cao Zhen said at this moment, Qiao Songnian couldn't help but grinned and said: "If you say so, the eight families in Yuyao are led by the Xie family. The Xie family is going to be finished this time! But we don't care whether the Xie family dies or not. Li Huan wants to give
We label it as a treason, will you agree?"
Xing Tai sneered and said: "If I agree, Xing will not stay."
Cao Zhen just smiled sinisterly and said: "Brother Qiao, if you have any good ideas, you might as well say so. Since we choose to stay, we are naturally prepared to risk our lives and fight for a way out."
Qiao Songnian's eyes flashed with murderous intent and said: "Since Li Huan won't give us a way to survive, then let's take the first step and send him to death."
At the same time, Li Huan appeared in front of the Xie Mansion with a group of royal guards.
Zhao Yi, who had been responsible for sealing the door of the Xie family's house, saw Li Huan and others arriving, and quickly stepped forward to greet him. At the same time, he saluted Li Huan and said, "I pay my respects to you, sir."
Li Huan nodded towards Zhao Yi, glanced at Xie Qian who was being carried over by Jin Yiwei, and then said to Zhao Yi: "Is everyone optimistic?"
Zhao Yi said seriously: "Don't worry, sir, no one in the Xie family has escaped."
Li Huan glanced around and saw a pool of blood at the gate. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Zhao Yi noticed Li Huan's gaze and immediately explained: "Not long ago, Xie Zhong, the sixth son of the Xie family, tried to provoke us and try to escape.
, his head was chopped off by his subordinate..."
Xie Qian, who was on the side, also saw the pool of blood in front of his house, and had a vague premonition in his heart. However, after hearing Zhao Yi's words, Xie Qian couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and with a cry, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
came out, and his face became extremely pale.
Xie Zhong was his favorite youngest son, and he never expected to hear the bad news about his youngest son.
"Traitor, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost..."
Xie Qian roared at Zhao Yi angrily, with a look of hatred in his eyes.
Zhao Yi just glanced at Xie Qian and ignored him at all.
When Xie Qian was found to have colluded with the rebels to murder the emperor, Xie Qian's fate was already doomed. He was just a dead man destined to have his family confiscated and his clan exterminated. No matter what the threat was, Zhao Yi really didn't take it to heart.
At this moment, Zhao Yi glanced at the group of Jinyi guards behind Li Huan. He couldn't help but be startled at this sight. These people, including Chen Yao, were all covered in blood and filled with evil spirits. Based on Zhao Yi's experience, all of them were covered in blood.
From a glance, you can tell that all of these people have killed someone before, and they did so not long ago, so that the murderous aura on their bodies has not yet dissipated.
With a thump in his heart, Zhao Yi secretly guessed, what on earth did his master do to make so many Jinyi guards stained with blood, and how many people would be killed.
Thinking of Li Huan going to Xie Qian's school to arrest people, Zhao Yi couldn't help but open his eyes wide, with a feeling of horror in his heart, and looked at Li Huan in shock.
Zhao Yi's expression was noticed by Li Huan. Li Huan said in surprise: "Zhao Yi, what are you..."
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Yi looked at Li Huan and said tremblingly: "Sir, you didn't kill many scholars, did you?"
After thinking about it, Zhao Yi felt that when Li Huan went to arrest Xie Qian, the only ones who could anger Li Huan and make the Jin Yiwei go on a killing spree were the stubborn scholars.
Li Huan didn't speak, but Chen Yao on the side said: "Master Zhao, you really guessed it right. We originally went to arrest Xie Qian, but we didn't expect that we bumped into the same people who led people to kill the tax collectors in Suzhou.
Scholar, what do you think is happening to these people?"
Chen Yao said with an angry look on his face: "They think that everyone in the world must respect them and give in to them, but they actually want to attack you and do you harm."
Chen Yao didn't need to say anything, Zhao Yi could already think of what would happen next.
How could he and Chen Ke not know about the fact that Li Huan slaughtered hundreds of scholars in Fuzhou in a fit of rage when he and Chen Ke were among the Jinyi Guards? That is to say, the news only spread among a small number of people in the capital and had not spread yet.
Otherwise, even if Shi Kui and Xizhen were given a hundred more courage, they would never dare to deal with Li Huan like they dealt with the tax collectors sent by Liu Jin.
Li Huan really didn’t dare to kill anyone.
After calming down, Zhao Yi raised his hands to Li Huan and said seriously: "Sir, there may be many local forces involved behind these literati..."
Li Huan glanced at Zhao Yi and said with a smile: "You are serious. I just want to force them to jump out and cause trouble. Otherwise, how can I have enough excuses to get rid of these people?"
Xie Qian's expression on the side changed drastically when he heard this. His eyes were full of horror and he stared at Li Huan and said tremblingly: "You...you have such a vicious mind..."
Apparently Xie Qian now thought that Li Huan specially sent Lin Pingzhi to get someone, and that he was also a direct descendant of several of the most influential powerful families specially selected.
Previously, Xie Qian secretly laughed at Li Huan for being so unwise, and was not afraid that these gangsters would jump over the wall and cause trouble. But now that he listened to Li Huan's words, he realized that Li Huan had done it on purpose.
Glancing at Xie Qian faintly, Li Huan sneered and said, "Since Li has encountered such cancer, just get rid of it."
Xie Qian looked at Li Huan as if he were looking at a madman and said: "You are so vicious and murderous, you will definitely die a bad death."
While he was talking, there were clouds of black clouds in the distance, and the noise was getting closer and closer.
Li Huan couldn't help but frown, turned around and saw a group of common people walking towards the long street in the distance.
The leader, Li Huan, still had the impression that he was the old master who tried to stop them on the long street not long ago.
At that time, Li Huan rode directly past and ignored these people at all.
I thought that these people should be able to get the news that he had killed many scholars in Muzhai Academy, but they all dispersed in fear.
But he never thought that these people were so brave and fearless of death and dared to come looking for him.
With so many scholars fleeing back to the city, Li Huan believed that many people must have known the news that he had killed so many scholars.
Big families like the Xing family and the Cao family had already received the news that Li Huan had killed many scholars.
But Li Huan never expected that although Song Guangsheng and others said that they had met some students who had escaped, they were just so confused that Song Guangsheng and others did not believe what those students said.
In fact, in the minds of normal people, the words of those scholars are indeed unbelievable. Who dares to believe that someone has the courage to kill so many scholars at once.
At this moment, Li Huan thought that Song Guangsheng and others must have known about his massacre of scholars and dared to come looking for him. This made Li Huan look at Song Guangsheng with a bit of admiration.
Was he really not afraid of death, or was he thinking that after killing so many scholars, he would not kill anyone again?
Song Guangsheng was walking at the front and naturally noticed the way Li Huan looked at him. He didn't know what Li Huan was thinking. Looking at the corpses of several students being carried by several students, anger rose in his heart.
The common people who were originally following these students stopped at a distance and did not dare to move forward. After all, there were so many Jinyi guards, all of them were murderous, and many of them were stained with blood. This made it even more difficult for anyone to dare to go forward.
Before.
Li Huan looked at Song Guangsheng with interest.
Song Guangsheng stepped forward to meet Li Huan's gaze. When he was several feet away from Li Huan, he waved his hand and several students immediately lowered the wooden planks they were carrying. The bodies of Sun Qiping and the three of them appeared in front of everyone.
Li Huan glanced at the three corpses on the ground and looked at Song Guangsheng in confusion.
When Song Guangsheng saw Li Huan's puzzled look, he was furious and said: "Li Huan, you actually led someone to kill a county school student on the street. Do you still have the law in your eyes?"
Li Huan sneered and said, "Sir, do you know what the crime of obstructing Jin Yiwei's handling of the case is?"
Song Guangsheng's expression changed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "So what, even if Jin Yiwei is handling the case, he should not attack the county school students. They are all the future pillars of the Ming Dynasty. You..."
Li Huan said with disdain: "If you say they are talented people, they are talented people. They are just a group of cysts who only have family self-interest and no national justice in their eyes. It would be better if they died earlier, otherwise they will harm the country and the people in the future."
Song Guangsheng immediately said angrily: "Traitor, you traitor, how dare you humiliate our generation of scholars."
Chen Yao snorted and shouted angrily: "How dare you be rude to your Excellency!"
Song Guangsheng laughed loudly and said: "Li Huan is a traitor. When I was the imperial censor, I dared to scold the emperor in person even if he made mistakes. You Li Huan is no more than the commander of the Jinyi Guards. So what if I call you a traitor?"
Tan Yuan, who had a broken leg, laughed when he saw this and said: "Song Jiaoyu said it well, if you are a traitor like Li Huan, how can we, the scholars, not scold you!"
As he spoke, Tan Yuan's eyes were full of hatred and he said: "Not only will we scold you today, but we will also kidnap you to see the officials. Sun Qiping and the others cannot die in vain..."
Just now, Li Huan said that they only have family interests in their eyes, but no national righteousness. They are all a group of cysts. These people were all filled with shame and anger. They all stared at Li Huan with a look of incomparable hatred, wishing to kill Li Huan.
Torn to pieces.
At this moment, hearing what Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan said, they each shouted with great joy: "Yes, kidnap this traitor and go to the official!"
"Tie him up!"
"Tie him up!"
Dozens of scholars seemed to have been exposed by Li Huan, the side of their hearts that they were least willing to admit. Instead of feeling ashamed, they felt hatred towards Li Huan who exposed their true colors.
Compared with those scholars in Muzhai Academy who were only encouraged by Su Kui, Xizhen and others and subconsciously attacked Li Huan, quite a few people just followed the trend.
However, these students in front of them obviously hated Li Huan and took the initiative to attack Li Huan.
Li Huan looked at the students from the county school and saw that each of them was filled with indignation, and their eyes were filled with hatred for him.
At first glance, Li Huan was a little surprised by the hateful looks in these students' eyes, but soon he understood that it was him who revealed their true colors, which made these people hate him.
After thinking about this, Li Huan's eyes suddenly turned cold when he looked at these students.
But if these people read the saint's books and still have some righteousness in their hearts, they will only feel guilty after listening to his words, but not hate him.
But looking around, one by one, dozens of county students were staring at him with hateful eyes, as if he, Li Huan, was their most hated enemy.
"Hahaha!"
I don't know why, Li Huan suddenly felt a little sad and angry in his heart. The Ming Dynasty had treated these scholars so kindly for hundreds of years.
Since Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, these scholars have been treated with various preferential treatment, and they have been given the privileges of not bowing to official posts, not paying taxes, etc.
I thought that the Ming Dynasty treated these people so favorably that they would be loyal to the Ming Dynasty. However, I never thought that the Ming Dynasty had cultivated scholars for hundreds of years and actually raised such a group of selfish and selfish people. It simply insulted the sages and the sages.
I read it and went into the dog's belly.
Perhaps among the many scholars in the Ming Dynasty, there were still some who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but among the scholars Li Huan had seen alone, they were nowhere to be found, even if there were only a few among a thousand people.
If you are loyal and loyal, you are already doing well.
Taking a deep breath, Li Huan had an idea in his mind. The Ming Dynasty was so good to these gentry that these people forgot the justice of the country and raised a bunch of cysticercids that crazily sucked blood on the Ming Dynasty.
With a raised brow, Li Huan secretly made up his mind that in the future, officials and gentry must be integrated into paying grain.
Just when Li Huan was distracted, dozens of students who hated Li Huan, led by Song Guangyi and Tan Yuan, crowded towards Li Huan.
All the guards in imperial robes immediately pressed their hands on the hilts of their knives, their eyes full of murderous intent.
However, Song Guangsheng and others only had Li Huan in their eyes, and did not pay attention to those Jinyi guards at all.
"Hey, why are you doing this? Why don't you live a good life?"
Li Huan's words suddenly rang in the ears of Song Guangsheng and others. For some reason, Song Guangsheng, Tan Yuan and others felt a bit ominous in their hearts, and the next moment they saw a sword light rise.
With a choking sound, Li Huan smoothly pulled out the embroidered spring knife from Chen Yao's waist, and saw the heads of Song Guangsheng and Tan Yuan flying up in the air, blood spurting out, only to cover Li Huan who followed behind them and stared at them with hatred.
Several students looked at each other.
