Ding Guogong's motorcade passed through Tongzhou and went straight to Peiping in a mighty manner, with four tiger chariots, tall and majestic, and layers of brocade-clad guards guarding Zhou Xiang.
Some people saw the Duke's appearance, which was extraordinary, but people around him knew clearly that Duke Ding was really afraid of death. Now everything he eats has to be tested by three dogs.
The girl watched it personally, right inside the military tent, and heated it with a stove to make sure it was correct.
Do you need to be so careful?
Xu Jingchang felt it was necessary. Ever since he went north, he had been fighting a battle, and it was still a battle where he was not sure which enemy it was.
Since ancient times, there have been too many famous generals and warriors who were invincible in the face of fierce enemies on the battlefield. However, when they put down their weapons and went to court, they seemed extremely stupid.
They are not afraid of swords that can kill people, but gold, silver, treasures, jewels and beauties that cannot kill people can make them stumble and ruin their reputation.
It’s easy to dodge an open gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow!
Xu Jingchang didn't want to capsize in the gutter, after all, he was still waiting to get a wife!
After Duke Ding's team entered Peiping, they went straight to the Ming Martyrs' Shrine without going anywhere else.
Yes, it was built under the supervision of Li Jinglong and dedicated to Xu Da and other founding generals.
The common people pointed their fingers and saw that the great figures of the past were all sent outside the city and put on the guillotine.
…
"I will pay my respects to Duke Dingguo."
The people of Peiping saw this and finally understood the truth. Don't do anything like smuggling, otherwise they will die miserably!
Just when Xu Jingchang was on his side, Duoyan Sanwei was gathering troops, and businessman Hu Sanduo was persuading them to send troops south.
Tan Mude nodded vigorously, "In that case, I understand, I will leave now!"
In an instant, he also wanted to throw himself into the sea of fire and die.
Some veterans are okay. Although they are not as skilled as the executioners, they can basically kill the prisoners quickly. But some new soldiers are not good. They are either not strong enough or they cut in the wrong position. They are usually bleeding and wailing, but
Even if you die, you can't die.
Li Jinglong's whole body was shaken violently, especially the last two sentences, which opened his eyes. Yes, this is the duty of a warrior, and he must be prepared at all times.
How murderous is this!
There are wealthy businessmen and celebrities, generals of the guard, and wealthy businessmen from all over the place. In short, they are all unattainable people, but now they are crushed by another force.
Therefore, Xu Jingchang's words are an imperial edict.
But Xu Jingchang didn't care about this, "I have the final say on this matter. If you encounter such a madman again, just kill him, don't be polite."
Li Jinglong was slightly startled, "Mr. Dingguo, when did you become so polite? Why are you trying to reason with those people? They colluded with merchants and smuggled money for profit this time, and they were also the culprits... They also sent people to kill Counselor Zhou. I will mention it now."
When the soldiers pass by, just destroy them."
Sure enough, when the world turned around, the executioner was still resting, so he called in the soldiers from the army and put them in charge of killing people.
Cutting off heads with one sword is also a skill. Cut off six or seven in a row before you are exhausted. The most ferocious executioner only cut a dozen, but today the most one executioner actually cut twenty, and everyone was stunned.
.
Needless to say, this pain.
But he never expected that Xu Jingchang would promote him to be the prefect of Shuntian, giving him a chance to take revenge.
"Shut up!" Xu Jingchang snorted: "Ask yourself, are you more powerful than your father, King Qiyang?"
But Li Jinglong also had his own ideas, "The current Duoyan Three Guards are not the Mongolian cavalry of the past... To put it bluntly, it won't be a problem for me to beat them."
After coming out of Xu Jingchang's place, Tan Mude took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and it was time to go on a killing spree.
"Dong Dingguo, you are really good at predicting things. Did you think of this step when you asked me to build the Martyrs' Shrine?" Li Jinglong exclaimed, almost kneeling to Xu Jingchang.
Tan Mude said solemnly: "Hui Dingguo said that many people were indeed arrested...but one of them claimed to be from Prince Zhao's palace. According to the testimony of others, he did work with Prince Zhao..."
This strong impact is destined to become a memory that will be engraved in everyone's heart.
After a while, Tan Mude, the prefect of Shuntian, came. He disappeared in a short time, and he already had gray hair on his temples... His wife and son died tragically in the fire, which made him miserable.
"kill!"
Li Jinglong was startled for a moment, then suddenly roared: "You can't look down on me! It's not that I can't defeat you, it's just that you are destined by fate. Your Majesty is so brave that no human being can compete with him!"
"You ask me?" Xu Jingchang laughed angrily, "You actually asked me? Li Jinglong, you are a general leading the army and you have the responsibility to defend the territory. Don't you know? As a warrior, I can't wait until you are ready before going to war.
.But to go into the battlefield at any time when needed!"
Xu Jingchang smiled and asked him to get up and sit down.
"There is no such thing." Xu Jingchang directly denied, "The King of Zhao was granted the title in Yingtian, and he has never returned to Peiping. Don't listen to these people's nonsense."
"I understand, farewell!"
"Prefect Tan, how is the investigation going?"
As soon as Li Jinglong left, Xu Jingchang let out a sigh of relief.
"Then you should immediately send a message to the people of Duoyan Sanwei and tell them that everything is business as usual. We will eliminate the evil spirits and it will not affect the normal market trade. It will resume later. Let them trust the court and don't misunderstand."
He didn't dare not listen to Xu Jingchang's words. His life and death were all in his hands. If Xu Jingchang could pull him out of the abyss, he could kick him back.
When it came to his fighting ability, Li Jinglong asked himself, he was definitely no match for his father.
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have sent you here."
Li Jinglong was stunned, and finally nodded, "I understand, please rest assured, Lord Ding, I will not cause trouble... But if the three guards of Duoyan take the initiative to provoke, or even send troops south, what should I do?"
"Wait a minute." Xu Jingchang stopped him again, "You better listen carefully. If you take the initiative to provoke, even if you win, I will impeach you later."
This is no ordinary thief, he must hit hard!
Following Xu Jingchang's order, just outside Shuntian City, soldiers escorted the prisoners from far to near... The reason why Caishikou was not chosen was that there were too many people there and there were not enough people there.
Tan Mude was a little startled. Xu Jingchang's statement was obviously nonsense. Zhu Gaosui had been in Peiping for many years. It was not unusual for any of the three brothers to have a few confidants. But for you to say no, it was obviously inappropriate.
Li Jinglong lowered his voice, "Mr. Dingguo, let me tell you the truth. This time I came to Peiping. Although I overtly supervised the construction of the Martyrs' Shrine, I also worked hard secretly. I sent craftsmen, disguised as merchants, into the grasslands to explore the Mongolian tribes.
The news. If they really dare to come, I am sure that I can defeat them!"
Xu Jingchang raised his brows, pondered for a long time, and then said: "It's best if you have this kind of heart. Sooner or later, you will use force, but this time, you must try your best to appease the three guards of Duoyan. In the face of internal and external fires, you can't deal with it."
Tan Mude was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What about the other merchants and the officials of the guard station?"
"We're here!" Li Jinglong said simply.
As soon as this person finished speaking, someone from behind said: "What is the son-in-law of a Jinshi? You didn't see the person behind him, that's Li Qianhu, isn't he from the palace? Anyone who follows His Majesty will lose his head anyway!"
At this moment, the common people of Peiping, from all religions and professions, all came out, gathered around, and jumped to look around... I have to say that this kind of excitement is something you will only see a few times in your life, so how can you miss it!
"Did you see that, the old man with a white beard who was being dragged at the front? He is the famous Mr. Feng, the richest man in Beiping City. I heard that his son-in-law is a Jinshi of the current dynasty, and Wenquxing is descended to earth. Unexpectedly
He’s finished this time too.”
Nothing else, the main reason is that the executioner can't cut it.
It is natural for Xu Jingchang to come here to pay homage to his grandfather. More importantly, all the people here are transferred from outside Peiping. It is equivalent to a small independent kingdom. Xu Jingchang can relax when he gets here.
tone.
Li Jinglong was startled again, but finally nodded obediently and went on.
Xu Jingchang snorted: "You are still talking to me like this? Don't you feel ashamed!" Those words you brag are accurate. Zhu Di is happy to accept them, but people can't deceive themselves... You are just picking vegetables.
Feet, don’t you know!
"I'll stop talking nonsense. Have your troops arrived at Xifengkou?"
Now that the door is closed, it's time to beat the dog.
In fact, although smuggling is abominable, it may not reach this point. However, Zhou Shixiu was killed first, and then after Xu Jingchang arrived, he set fire to the witness's family.
When the news reached the Martyrs' Shrine, Xu Jingchang just smiled faintly, "Does this make people feel guilty and scared? Tell Tan Mu De, when it comes to dealing with criminals, it is a bit more, but compared to the battlefield where thousands of people are killed at every turn, it is nothing.
What. The executioner is no longer available. I will transfer someone from the army tomorrow. Don’t be polite and kill me!"
The ghost-headed sword was raised high, blood splattered, and heads rolled... This day's beheadings continued until the afternoon, and they had to stop.
"Send an order to Shuntian Magistrate Tan Mu De and ask him how many people have been arrested and what can't he handle?"
"cut!"
Li Jinglong was stunned. His father, Li Wenzhong, was an absolute fierce man. There was a three-pronged attack on Mongolia and even Xu Da was defeated, but Li Wenzhong won a complete victory.
Xu Jingchang said bluntly: "Anyone who has committed smuggling will be killed!"
"We can't wait any longer. If the Ming court is allowed to kill people, no merchants will dare to do business with you in the future. Go south as soon as possible. While there are still people who have not been caught, they are willing to act as internal agents and rush into Peking to kill Xu Jingchang.
Take a plunder!"
He tried his best to make noise, but the three guards of Duoyan were not fools. The imperial court was powerful and moved south in a big way. What if it provoked revenge?
After much thought, they decided to mobilize 18,000 people to go south, and at the same time put forward conditions to the Ming court, asking not to cut off trade routes and kill merchants.
This request is also new. The Mongolian Duoyan Three Guards actually spoke for the merchants of the Ming Dynasty.
As the Mongolian cavalry moved south, beacon fires were lit along the Great Wall...
