Chapter 224 The Destruction of the Old Nobles

Dong Hou, who was hiding at the end of the crowd, was still a little hungover. The stamina of the Yumen Burning was so great that his head was still dizzy.

Because he was in the back row of the crowd, Dong Zhong could not see the situation in front. According to the original plan, as long as there was chaos in the team welcoming King Jianning, Dong Zhong would take advantage of the chaos and sneak away and lead the slave army in Gaochang City to attack the governor.

Mansion.

Just when Dong Chong was still imagining that he was going to raise the old flag of the ancient Gaochang Kingdom, the people in the city gathered in response, as if such a major event as assassinating the rebel king of Jianning could be accomplished easily.

Several other old nobles who were preparing to rebel with Dong Zhong also harbored longings. They seemed to have seen the days when they would dominate Gaochang City in the future.

But Dong Chong's hangover was not over yet, and he suddenly felt that many people's eyes were on him.

What's going on here?

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the front. Was the assassination successful?

Dong Zhong was overjoyed, Yang Bin was worthy of being Fulefang's talker, a super master who could kill the leader of Mihang!

Assassinating King Jianning was such a difficult task, and it was accomplished just like that?

Unfortunately, Dong Chong's dream did not last long as several generals in armor surrounded him.

This round of arrests was also arranged by Yang Bin himself. These are the top players among the [General] players. The targets to be arrested have been sent to them in advance. They waited until Yang Bin performed the good show of "abandoning the dark and turning to the light" and then captured them immediately.

These few old nobles of Gaochang have evil intentions.

No matter how stupid Dong Zhong was, he finally realized that something was wrong. He wanted to escape from the crowd, but found that he had been isolated by the crowd and there was a large space around him.

Dong Chong finally panicked. Could it be that the assassination failed?

But even if the assassination failed, Yang Bin wouldn't confess himself so quickly, would he?

Dong Chong still harbored illusions, thinking that these soldiers were not coming for him.

But his fantasy was soon shattered. The leading player rushed over and hit Dong Zhong in the stomach with the handle of his knife.

Dong Zhong only felt a sharp pain that he had never experienced before. This was pain that he had never experienced since coming out of his mother's womb.

Dong Chong's tears and nose flowed out, and his body curled up like a shrimp.

The other two [General] players quickly suppressed his body, and another General player opened Dong Zhong's mouth to prevent him from taking poison and committing suicide.

Out of the corner of his eye, Dong Zhong saw that several old Gaochang aristocratic clan chiefs who had conspired with him last night were all captured by the generals. At this moment, Dong Zhong finally understood that it was over, completely over.

Li Yan just calmly accepted the evidence handed over by Yang Bin, and then handed it over to Cao Zhouhao, the Western Prefecture Chief of Justice who came to greet him.

The report, exposure and arrest were completed in one go. Li Yan acted as if nothing had happened and walked towards the team of Xizhou officials who greeted him with a normal expression.

Li Xiuzhang, the governor of Xizhou, was wearing a crimson official robe. He looked like an eminent monk with profound Buddhist nature and greeted King Jianning with a smile.

Following Li Xiuzhang was the Bafu Sima Cuitao, who is now the actual leader of Xizhou.

"See Your Highness." Li Xiuzhang bowed as he came up, but was helped up by Li Yan. After the two performed in front of the officials in Xizhou, Li Xiuzhang led King Jianning into Gaochang City.

As for the slave soldiers in Dong Chong's mansion, before they could start a rebellion, the generals and players led their troops to attack the mansion and quickly controlled all the nine old Gaochang aristocrats who participated in the rebellion.

Just when King Jianning walked into Gaochang City, Dong, who was leading the slave soldiers to prepare for the uprising, had already been captured by a military general player.

Dong Yuan was originally in Donghou's Mansion, waiting for Dong Zhong's order to attack the Governor's Mansion, but he did not expect that he had just gathered the slave soldiers of Donghou's Mansion, and was rushed into Donghou's Mansion by the official army.

These slave soldiers themselves were slaves of Donghou's mansion. The official soldiers rushed in and dispersed in a rush. Seeing that the situation was not good, Dong was ready to take advantage of the chaos and escape.

Originally, there were many family members in Donghou's mansion, and Dong might really have a chance to escape, but he thought of the warehouse in Donghou's mansion.

The director couldn't walk when he thought of the gold cakes in the warehouse.

Dong immediately rushed to the warehouse of Donghou Mansion, preparing to "take" some gold cakes before escaping, but he happened to bump into the general occupying the warehouse.

This time, Director Dong was not so lucky. Yang Bin had already sent his appearance to the player who was on the capture mission. He was worth a hundred contribution points. The general smiled and caught Dong.

member.

The bad guys from Fulebo were dispatched en masse. Yang Bin had already provided the detailed location of the Lifu Guild's stronghold in Fulefang. No one escaped, including Shu Saburo, and they were all arrested.

Then the bad guys hunted down rabbits and captured the head of the Lifu Guild, sweeping away the entire gang power in Gaochang City.

When King Jianning moved into the Governor's Mansion of Xizhou, this ridiculous rebellion launched by Gaochang's old nobles quickly spread throughout Gaochang City.

Suddenly, all the restaurants and tea shops were discussing this important event.

There is no shortage of news about these old nobles in Gaochang City, but the common people did not expect that they were so bold as to want to rebuild the Gaochang Kingdom.

How many years has it been since Gaochang Kingdom fell? In the hearts of the people, Gaochang Kingdom is just a passing term.

Besides, if you can be a Tang Dynasty person, why should you be a Gaochang person?

There are so many small countries in the Western Regions who want to be the dogs of the Tang Dynasty. They are good people of the Tang Dynasty and want to betray the Tang Dynasty and reestablish the Gaochang Kingdom. The people of Gaochang City will not agree!

The old nobles of Gaochang, who had a bad reputation in Gaochang City, were cursed by the common people in restaurants and tea shops. Even several old nobles of Gaochang who did not participate in the rebellion were too scared to go out for fear of suffering unreasonable disasters.

Cao Zhouhao, the chief prosecutor of Xizhou, quickly tried the case. With Yang Bin's confession and evidence, Dong Chong confessed instantly.

Coupled with the confessions of the directors and other old noble family heads, this case can be said to be irrefutable.

Marquis Dong wanted to rebuild the Gaochang Kingdom and united with the old nobles to assassinate King Jianning. He also secretly amassed troops to attack the Governor's Mansion.

Fortunately, the assassin bribed by Dong Chong was a chivalrous man. After he heard that King Jianning loved his people as his own son, he immediately chose to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, which in turn exposed Dong Zhong's crime of rebellion.

Some people even came to the gate of the governor's office and petitioned to spare Yang Bin's life.

The governor's court judge did not comment on the people's petition. The governor's court judge worked overtime and quickly completed a series of judgments.

The mastermind, Dong Chong, was sentenced to beheading in accordance with the "Tang Laws and Regulations" because it was a crime of treason and did not need to be reported to Dali Temple for review and could be executed directly.

The remaining heads of the old aristocracy who participated in the rebellion were also sentenced to beheading in accordance with the "Tang Laws and Regulations".

But Zhou Hao's judgment was much more gentle towards Marquis Dong and the family members of these old nobles.

According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Dong Zhong's rebellion did not cause any harm, and thus it was an attempted rebellion.

Referring to the precedents in "Tang Lv Shu Yi", Dong Chong's wife, concubines and children were sentenced to three thousand miles of exile. The direct relatives of Donghou's family who were determined not to have participated in the rebellion and were unaware of the rebellion had their sentences reduced to two thousand miles of exile.

Yang Bin, who had performed meritorious services, was "sentenced to two thousand miles of exile" and was exiled to the Western Regions together with his old aristocratic family.

Everyone in Gaochang City praised King Jianning for his generosity and benevolence. After this attempted rebellion, the people of Gaochang City completely surrendered to King Jianning, which was an unexpected surprise.
