The three attendants were crying like women, as if they would die without a burial place in the next moment. They wrapped Shang Jue's body and began to draw lots.
"you go!"
The drawn follower looked ashen and said, "Let me write a suicide note."
The old thief whispered: "Lang Jun, King Wei is cruel, but he is far away in Qianzhou. The prince cannot leave the fiefdom without an edict, so Lang Jun can rest assured."
yes!
Yang Xuan felt a little at ease.
Although King Wei is older than him, in terms of seniority, King Wei is his nephew.
The reputation of this eldest nephew's cruelty was well known throughout the Tang Dynasty.
Before becoming a vassal in Chang'an, King Wei caused many tragedies in Chang'an. It is said that dozens of people had their hands and feet broken off.
"It will take your Majesty two or three days to get here from Lin'an. I'm afraid the corpses will be smelly." The attendant came up with a reason why he didn't want to go, "We have to deal with it quickly."
But Yang Xuan was already confused.
"King Wei comes to Taiping?"
Later, he returned to the county.
"Mingfu looks rosy and full of energy!"
Jiang praised sincerely.
"Jiang Zhen!" Yang Xuanqiang smiled, but still remembered to comfort the second and fifth boys, "Go and do your work."
Yang Xuan went to the backyard, and then the old thief called Cao Ying and others.
"King Wei's brother-in-law?" Yi Niang sneered, "Who wants to pat other people's horses? He deserves to die. If he has the ability, he will come to Taiping from Qianzhou!"
Yang Xuanmuran.
Yi Niang felt something was wrong, so she asked the old thief, "What happened?"
The old thief smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty ordered the King of Guards to come to Northern Xinjiang to appease the soldiers and people."
Wang Laoer added, "They said they would be stationed in Taiping."
Yi Niang: "..."
Cao Ying's face turned cold, "Where are those three people? Who were the witnesses? Kill them all. There is a cave in the mountain over there. Throw them in and cover them with dead branches outside. No one will find them for the rest of your life."
Yang Xuan shook his head, "It's too late."
Cao Ying covered her forehead and said, "Hey!"
Yi Niang said angrily: "Why are you sighing? How can you be so kind as to kill someone and silence them?"
Cao Ying sighed: "If you don't kill people, people will kill you!"
Yang Xuan thought a lot, and he knew that he couldn't do anything that would silence anyone, especially the old farmer.
"Now that the matter has come to this, it is more important to think about how to solve it." Yang Xuan asked, "What kind of person is King Wei?"
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.
Cao Ying looked at Yi Niang, "Yiniang knows more."
Yi Niang said slowly: "King Wei is the daughter of the concubine Qiao. When the false emperor was still in hiding, there were many women in the palace, vying for favor... The Qiao family comes from Jiangnan and is no match for those women."
"Are you looking down on Jiangnan women?" Zhuque said, the rhythm of the green light flashing seemed to be trembling.
"Qiao's life was not easy, and King Wei became very violent. He was tall and strong. When he was nine years old, a woman bullied Qiao, and he smashed her head with a wine pot."
What a talent!
Wang Laoer praised: "Well done!"
Yi Niang nodded slightly, "Women are easy to deal with. The worst is to replace him. But the son is his own, and King Wei just got a beating."
"A few months later, a woman deliberately knocked down Ms. Qiao. Ms. Qiao didn't take it seriously, but King Wei quietly blocked the woman, punched and kicked her, and finally pushed her into the pool, almost drowning her.
die."
Yi Niang found that everyone was deep in thought, "What are you thinking about?"
The old thief said: "I was thinking about what I was doing when I was nine, as if I was playing around."
"When King Wei was more than ten years old, no one in the palace dared to do evil things to the Qiao family." Yi Niang sighed: "Once a person has a violent temper, it is difficult to stop him. Later, King Wei left the palace to build a palace, which was very popular in Chang'an City.
He is said to be afraid of others... Even if he is an important minister, he will be beaten if he offends him."
Yang Xuan asked: "What is his cultivation level?"
Yi Niang looked at him with a sad expression, "Lang Jun..."
Yang Xuan understood, "In other words, if King Wei takes action, I will either escape or wait to die?"
Yi Niang nodded, "It's a pity that Taiping is a place. I also dried a lot of dried vegetables and can't take them with me."
The woman was thinking about those things... Cao Ying said painfully: "It's a pity that the Taiping Army has 2,500 people. If we want to expand in time, based on this, tens of thousands of troops will be at our fingertips!"
These days, there are not all elites, but only the core elites fight with other troops, using the elites to drive the combat effectiveness of the entire army.
"Calm down!" Yang Xuan felt that the atmosphere was too gloomy. "What happened to Shang Jue was unintentional. I won't lose even if I sue you to Chang'an. In this way, we only need to do one thing well."
Everyone looked at him.
"We must convince others with virtue!"
…
King Wei arrived in Taiping on the third day.
The three followers knelt outside the city gate and cried.
"died?"
King Wei was stunned for a moment.
The three followers did not do anything these days. In order to reduce their guilt, they went to the city to buy a thin coffin.
They also invited two outsiders who had been exiled to Taiping to perform rituals. They also praised Taiping for having everyone, which was more convenient than Qianzhou.
The two outsiders were reciting sutras that no one understood, while their eyes were rolling around.
There was a follower beside King Wei who was quite talented in language. He vaguely heard something...
"...The gods will send you to the West, and your family will give you more money. When you get to the West, there will be many gods, and the gods will also need to pay for the journey. You didn't give enough for the journey, so I will ask you to entrust the dream later. If you entrust the dream to a family, hurry up and burn money paper for me...
…”
The attendant picked at his ears, feeling that he might be hallucinating.
A foreigner who can be exiled to Taiping is not an ordinary foreigner!
When I opened the thin coffin, a smell rushed out.
Somewhat above.
Shang Jue is already swollen.
King Wei's eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Who?"
His princess was the daughter of a large family, and after entering the palace, she took care of those women, which saved him a lot of worries.
So he also gave the princess respect.
But now the princess's brother is dead.
One of the attendants told the story in a tearful voice without embellishment at all.
They discussed it countless times in the past few days and finally came to the conclusion that it was best to tell the truth.
"You just took a shot and were trampled to death by a horse?"
"yes."
King Wei's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Huang Ping whispered: "Your Majesty, the officials from Ping'an County have come out to greet you."
King Wei glanced sideways and pressed the handle of the knife.
"Go over and have a look."
Yang Xuan led a group of officials to greet him.
"I've met the king!"
Just when King Wei was about to get angry, Yang Xuan asked, "May I ask why your Majesty came to peace?"
Huang Ping said coldly: "Your Majesty was ordered to come to Northern Xinjiang to appease the soldiers and civilians."
"Oh!" Yang Xuan suddenly realized, "Your Majesty is kind. Your Majesty is here, and the folks in Ping'an County are very happy!"
Behind her, Cao Ying gently waved her hands behind her back.
A group of people raised their hands and shouted: "The king is merciful, the king is merciful..."
"I told you to welcome me with a welcome, a warm welcome, but you want to use the words of King's Mercy instead." Zhuque was not happy.
King Wei looked at Yang Xuan silently.
Yang Xuan felt his scalp was numb, so he stirred up his inner energy and was ready to take action at any time.
"Your Majesty, please be merciful!"
Cao Ying and others' backs were wet with sweat, fearing that the cruel King Wei would ruthlessly kill their own uncle.
But Yang Xuan analyzed King Wei's mentality and felt that his eldest nephew's cruelty came from his childhood experiences. Moreover, King Wei must have a reason every time he took action.
Shang Jue's death is inexplicable, but Yang Xuan's role as the 'murderer' is also inexplicable!
What was King Wei's reason for taking action?
My brother-in-law touched your horse, and your horse dared to trample him to death?
Using this reason to do something, Yang Xuan felt that it would not be a big deal.
But...who can tell?
So today is an adventure... Yang Xuan is reluctant to give up his foundation and is willing to risk his life.
"Your Majesty, please be merciful!"
The people shouted at the top of their lungs.
Yang Xuan bet that after King Wei heard about the kindness of this great king, he would think of the purpose of his trip to comfort the soldiers and people of Northern Xinjiang. But you want to kill people as soon as you come. This is not comfort, but looking for trouble.
In this way, the whole family will turn him into a scumbag!
The comfort was gone, so he returned to Qianzhou and continued squatting.
Who wants to squat in the so-called fiefdom, which is tantamount to confinement?
The eldest nephew was silent for a long time, "Enter the city!"
Yang Xuan felt relieved and immediately accompanied King Wei into the city.
When the prince came, all the people came out to greet him.
Huangping saw that the people were very peaceful and couldn't help but be surprised, "Most of the people here are criminals, why is it so peaceful?"
Xianghe? Cao Ying accompanied him and said with a smile: "It's all the result of enlightenment."
This is to fight for Yang Xuan's face.
Huang Ping nodded.
Yang Xuan said: "The county has made room, Your Majesty..."
King Wei was silent, and Huang Ping said, "Is there a house next to the county house?"
"have."
"Requisitioned."
Requisition means no money will be given... King Wei thinks highly of your family, it is your family's honor.
I still want money... I want to die!
Cao Ying felt something was wrong and was just thinking about the county paying to settle the matter. Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty is merciful."
King Wei hesitated, "Give me money to buy it!"
Huang Ping glanced at Yang Xuan and thought that this young magistrate looked extraordinary!
His horse trampled King Wei's brother-in-law to death. Logically, this man should be frightened, but he dared to provoke King Wei to pay him.
"Which family does Yang Ming's Mansion belong to?" Huang Ping began to dig into the details.
"Yuanzhou Yang family." Yang Xuan said with a smile.
Never heard of it, most of them are from small families and poor people.
"But to become an official through the imperial examination?"
"No, I studied under the Imperial Academy."
A student of the Imperial College?
Huang Ping immediately thought of those weird people in the Imperial College.
He smiled slightly and said, "That's it!"
Turning his face sideways, his eyes were full of hatred.
Shang Jue and he have an irreversible friendship, what a brotherly bond!
Therefore, his hatred for Yang Xuan cannot be washed away even by pouring water from three rivers.
Naturally, the house next door to the county house was not inhabited by poor people. After spending money and finding out that King Wei had moved in, the owner became so ugly that he almost gave his daughter to King Wei to sleep with him.
Taiping is a rural place. If my daughter can become a prince, wow! The whole family will not have to worry.
King Wei moved in immediately.
The house is a bit cramped and there is no study room, so we can only temporarily make room for one.
King Wei and Huang Ping were talking in the study at the moment.
"Your Majesty, Shang Jue died unjustly!" Huang Ping looked ugly and vowed to avenge his good brother.
King Wei said with a cold face, "Why did he commandeer the bullock cart?"
Huang Ping said: "I said I was going to Lin'an to pick up the king."
King Wei stared at Huang Ping with leopard eyes and asked coldly: "If you lie, I will hang you in front of the coffin, and you and Shang Jue will become a pair of perverts together!"
What did the king know?
Huang Ping trembled in his heart, "Shang Jue said Taiping was poor and planned to buy a female prostitute in Lin'an to serve him by his side."
King Wei looked at him unkindly and held the water cup. Huang Ping quickly explained, "Shang Jue said to buy a few more. He only wants one for himself and the rest will serve the king."
King Wei leaned forward, like a tiger looking down at the fox, and roared: "It's all your usual encouragement that makes him so lustful!"
Huang Ping was sprayed with saliva all over his face, but he didn't dare to move. After King Wei sat up straight, he quickly changed the topic.
"Your Majesty, Yang Xuan came from the Imperial College."
"Those losers from the Imperial College!" King Wei sneered.
"yes!"
Huang Ping suppressed his hatred in his heart, "The Imperial College is not as good as the previous one, but it has produced such a smart county magistrate. I don't know which branch he practiced in. Does the Imperial College also have a bee branch? But I know the direction of his training.
It’s also easy to suppress.”
King Wei looked at him and said coldly: "No matter which system he practices, I just punch him!"
"The king is as powerful as a dragon and a tiger." Huang Ping praised the boss, but then worriedly said: "How do you explain it to the princess?"
King Wei did not care much at home, and the princess was the head of the family. After many years, even King Wei felt a little jealous of the serious princess.
"Just say..."
King Wei hesitated for a long time.
The princess is serious, it is me who is unlucky enough to be caught lying... Huang Ping said softly: "How about telling the truth."
King Wei nodded.
Huang Ping stood up and saluted.
"My condolences, Your Majesty."
The relationship between King Wei and Shang Jue is very good... The princess is majestic and King Wei is not willing to tremble with her, but his brother-in-law is quite smart. The two have known each other for many years and can be called close friends.
Now my best friend is dead.
The murderer is a horse.
King Wei sat there, looking a little sad.
"You write a letter and report this to the princess."
The princess will want to kill me! Huang Ping: "..."
"I will write back later."
Huangping's letters can arouse the princess's anger.
After the anger is vented...
The letter from King Wei came again, and after some consolation, it became the husband's concern for his wife.
But what about me?
Huang Ping stood there.
King Wei raised his head and said calmly: "What are you waiting for?"
…
Yang Xuan was in a good mood after successfully overcoming the difficulties.
Yi Niang is also in a good mood.
"Should we support King Wei today?" Cao Ying reminded Yang Xuan.
"He probably won't come." Yang Xuan said, and he was not willing to eat with his eldest nephew.
"I have to go and invite you once." Cao Ying felt that she couldn't be rude.
"you go."
Cao Ying went.
"Catch the wind and wash away the dust?"
King Wei thought of his brother-in-law lying in the thin coffin, "Okay."
The coffin was parked in the front yard, and Cao Ying also paid her respects after coming in.
The guard stood by and said, "Taiping people are really honest in their business."
Cao Ying asked: "Why do you say that?"
The guard patted the thin coffin and said, "I said it was a coffin made of good wood, and it turned out to be true at first glance."
Cao Ying felt something was wrong, so she took the opportunity to pay homage and take a closer look.
The materials on both sides of the coffin walls are really good and impeccable, but they are very thin. The bottom...is not quite right.
Damn it, it’s actually a weed!
Zhang Qifa, that profiteer, used paint to cover up the true nature of the miscellaneous wood.
After the death of Emperor Xiaojing, Cao Ying wandered around for more than ten years and also made a living in a coffin shop, writing inscriptions for those who came to buy coffins.
So he is quite familiar with the methods of this business.
But even if those bosses are evil-minded, they will not use all fakes, at least not for the coffin lid.
He lightly touched the coffin lid, as if he was coming to pay homage to his friend, and patted it a few times.
Black-hearted Zhang Qifa!
It’s also a miscellaneous tree!
Let Huang Zhang charge him more taxes later!
Cao Ying sighed and left.
Behind him, the guard said to Huang Ping who came out: "This Mr. Cao is really a good man."
Later there will be a feast.
Yi Niang reluctantly ordered two sheep to be killed, and she cursed her eldest nephew nine times that he would die nine times.
"Four ladies."
Zhang Siniang helped the kitchen light the fire, raised her head and responded crisply, "Hey!"
Yi Niang carried two legs of lamb and said, "Take these two hind legs and give them to your husband later."
"good!"
Yang Xuan never ate alone, so of the two legs of lamb, at least half belonged to Yi Niang, and half belonged to her and Wang Laoer.
Zhang Siniang was delighted.
The dinner was held in the lobby.
The mutton is enough, and the wine is enough, w.; but the wine is not that good.
King Wei ate in silence.
So the atmosphere was weird.
After eating, King Wei did not hesitate and stood up and said: "I am here to appease the soldiers and the people. What should I do to appease the soldiers and the people... I think that the more enemies you kill, the more peaceful your life will be for the soldiers and people in Northern Xinjiang!"
"
Kill the enemy?
Yang Xuan smiled.
He Lianchun's mediation was more like extortion, and had no binding force on Chenzhou and the Waxie tribe. Who thought that the two sides would be in peace after the emperor's uncle came forward, and they didn't know how they died.
Is it time to take action?
Yang Xuan is thinking.
On the third day, the scouts brought news.
"Five thousand horses from the Vashe tribe are here, heading straight for Taiping!"
King Wei, who came after hearing the news, had a cold face and said, "Take your men and hold on, give me a hundred riders, and I will go and kill you."
Yang Xuan shook his head, "That's inappropriate."
King Wei narrowed his eyes at him and said with anger, "You are as timid as a mouse and you only dare to defend the city?"
Yang Xuan looked at him and said, "I will lead the army out of the city to meet the enemy, and I also ask the king to watch the battle at the top of the city."
Huh!
King Wei was startled, then sneered, "Here comes my king."
Yang Xuan said calmly: "Your Majesty is here to appease the army and the people. Isn't it appropriate to lead the army on an expedition?"
Later, King Wei stood at the top of the city, gnashing his teeth as he looked at the Taiping troops leaving the city, and cursed: "You bitch slave, a good-for-nothing civil servant from the Imperial College went out with two thousand people. He thought the Taiping troops could fight one against ten."
Yet?"
One of the followers pointed to the city and said, "Your Majesty, those people are changing their clothes."
Behind the city gate, hundreds of people were chaotically changing into military uniforms, holding weapons, and then left the city, standing at the end of the array.
What's the meaning?
This question remained until dust appeared in the distance.
"The Vashes are coming!"
…
‘Lighting up while drunk’, thanking the boss for the leader’s reward.
, after reporting, the administrator will correct the chapter content later.
