Chapter 228

Wang Jian quelled the rebellion and Lao Ai subdued the law

Author: I slept until I woke up in the afternoon

Wang Jian quelled the rebellion and Lao Ai subdued the law

The people who entered the palace were very unfamiliar to the courtiers in Xianyang Palace, but to Lao Ai, they looked very familiar.

Originally, when this happened, Lao Ai should have raised his head and laughed a few times, but at this moment, he was not happy at all.

Walking at the front was an old general who was nearly fifty years old. He was wearing a black military uniform and a red cloak. He held his helmet under his arm. He was tall and straight, walking like a dragon and a tiger. Although he was marching in the army,

He has a hair with a few silver strands, but it is neatly and cleanly combed, and his beard is thick.

Next to him was a young general who seemed very ordinary, but his eyes revealed a firm look.

"Lieutenant Wang Jian and his son Wang Ben have something to report!"

"Two moments ago, the followers of Marquis Changxin were causing chaos and arson in the city, trying to cause chaos, and armed with bows and crossbows, they launched an attack on the palace gate. Guardsmen Zhang Wei, Sima Xu Fang, Cheng Tu... and other guardsmen

The official tried to open the palace gate to lure the rebels, but was killed in a trap. He cooperated with the lieutenant's garrison to attack from both sides and killed 4,357 rebels who participated in the attack on the palace. The remaining retainers of Changxinhou Mansion, Tong

Servant, the garrison will cooperate with the net to launch a search."

"I am afraid that the king will be worried, so I will convey the good news to the king first!"

Wang Jian's voice was full of energy and sonorous.

Although it was only a brief statement, after listening to his story, all the civil and military officials present felt frightened.

Attack Xianyang Palace?

Everyone looked at Lao Ai with some lingering fear. Lao Ai was really bold.

The last group of courtiers who remained neutral finally joined the impeachment of Lao Ai, but this time they no longer asked Ying Zheng for a thorough investigation, but instead asked Ying Zheng to issue an order to kill him for treason.

Hearing the chorus of "please punish him" and looking at the courtiers who agreed with his pro-government, Ying Zheng, who was dressed in black clothes, pressed the windlass sword on his waist and stood up slowly.

It was clear that the situation had been decided, he was about to take charge, and Lao Ai could never stand up again, but instead of feeling happy, he felt a little ridiculous.

Among the ministers at the foot of the steps, many of them had close relations with Lao Ai, and some were supported by Lao Ai. Private bribes and the like were everywhere, but at this moment, they all asked him to execute Lao Ai in unison.

Is Lao Ai really hateful?

Yes, he is indeed hateful.

He insulted the Queen Mother, exceeded the rules of etiquette, regarded the law as nothing, and even attempted to commit rebellion. He was a crime that should not be punished.

But is it really because of these reasons that these courtiers wanted to kill Lao Ai?

Ying Zheng's calm eyes swept across the faces of the ministers, and he saw greed, fear, and joy in their eyes...

The world is bustling with people, everyone is coming and going for benefit.

What most of them seek is nothing more than the power, wealth, and status occupied by the Lao Ai family. There are also some people who hope that Lao Ai can shut up forever to avoid revealing part of their crimes.

Ying Zheng was disgusted by this, but he understood that human nature was like this and there was nothing he could do about it.

He also truly understood why the king was always called a loner. It was not only a modest compliment, but also an explanation of the facts.

Fortunately... he still has a mother, a teacher, and a confidant.

Of course, there were still some sober people among the ministers in the court, especially those in the military, and everyone was sizing up the lieutenant.

Wang Jian, a name that is very unfamiliar even among the military.

Wang Jian has never had any public dealings with the ministers. He obviously holds the position of lieutenant, is in charge of the security of Xianyang, and is in charge of the command of the Xianyang garrison. He is also a fifth-level official with a ninth-level title, but he still keeps a low profile. But Wang Jian's ability was undoubtedly revealed during this counterinsurgency process.

As the seat of the Qin Dynasty, Xianyang Palace naturally has a series of sound insulation treatments. However, no matter how perfect the facilities in Xianyang Palace are, the shouts of killing have never reached Xianyang Palace.

It can be seen that the counter-insurgency process this time was very smooth and the action was very fast.

Even if arrangements and ambushes were made in advance, to annihilate the rebels with such thunderous means...Wang Jian is definitely worthy of the title of famous general.

However, they don't understand how Wang Jian manages to be so low-key yet willing to be so low-key?

However, everyone did not delve into it, after all, the most important matter at the moment has not yet been resolved.

After hearing that his disciples and servants had suffered heavy casualties, and then listening to the courtiers around him scolding and rebuking him, Lao Ai didn't show any fear or sadness. Instead, he smiled, and that feminine face rarely appeared on his face. Somewhat heroic.

"Ying Zheng, I lost."

Lao Ai took a deep look at this young man in black clothes, as if she wanted to imprint the image of Ying Zheng in her brain.

"do you know?"

"If we, the people in the market, get into a fight and fall into a desperate situation from which we cannot escape, we will never beg for mercy. Instead, we will fight with death and bite off a piece of the opponent's flesh so hard that he will feel pain even if he wins. .”

Before he finished speaking, Lao Ai suddenly took a step, and his sleeves were shattered by a dark yellow internal force, revealing a dagger hidden in his arm. He thrust out as fast as lightning, aiming directly at a black and red phoenix. Zhao Ji's chest.

Ying Zheng has a lot of courtiers around him, so he may not be able to succeed, but Zhao Ji has only four maids holding up her skirts.

Moreover, he has not forgotten the other culprit that led to his current situation.

Zhang Ji, if it weren't for him, he wouldn't have had his disciples rebel so hastily, let alone end up like this.

But he might not be able to kill Zhang Ji in a surprise attack, and since neither Ying Zheng nor Zhang Ji could kill him, he would kill Zhao Ji, who was powerless.

"Guard! Protect the Queen Mother!"

Ying Zheng shouted in shock and wanted to step forward, but was blocked behind him by a group of officials to prevent Lao Ai from attacking.

Feng Jie, Feng Quji and Meng Jia, who were somewhat skilled in martial arts, had already rushed forward, but they were still some distance away from Zhao Ji who had walked down the steps.

But as the sword light flickered, the generals closest to Zhao Ji touched the empty waist and were stunned for a moment before they reacted.

But in that moment of confusion, they lost the chance to stop Lao Ai.

Seeing the sharp dagger getting closer and closer to Zhao Ji, the sword energy blessed by dark yellow internal force was only a stone's throw away from Zhao Ji's clothes, but it could not move forward an inch.

The coquettish blood dripped down that hand, and the sword blade wrapped in dark yellow internal force was firmly clamped by one hand.

Zhang Ji stared at Lao Ai with his cold eyes. He grasped the blade with all his strength, preventing the sword from moving forward any further.

"you……"

Lao Ai looked at Zhang Ji in front of her with a bit of confusion and confusion in her eyes.

Although the dagger in his hand is not a peerless sword, it is of extraordinary quality. It is not difficult to cut bones and tendons. Yet Zhang Ji actually used his right hand, which he relied on for survival, to hold the blade just to save Zhao Ji, an old woman?

For those who practice martial arts, if their right hand is disabled, most of their physical strength will be lost, and their future in martial arts will be ruined.

And even for literati, if they lose their dominant right hand, it will be extremely inconvenient for them to have basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, let alone writing.

It can be said that losing your right hand is equivalent to ruining your life.

Zhang Ji actually risked his life for Zhao Ji?

Lao Ai's hand holding the dagger suddenly exerted force. Even if he couldn't break through Zhang Ji's protection to kill Zhao Ji, he would still cripple Zhang Ji's right hand.

However, just as Lao Ai applied force, a mouthful of blood spurted out and splashed on Zhang Ji's body. His black robe was stained with blood, making him look even more coquettish and weird.

One punch and one palm hit Lao Ai's back heart and lungs respectively. The ones who took action were two Lang Guan of Ying Zheng.

One is named Li Xin and the other is named Qiang Yu. Although they are not very old, they are extremely brave.

Those punches and palms directly caused serious damage to the unprepared Lao Ai, who staggered back two steps. Then Meng Wu roared angrily and punched Lao Ai hard in the abdomen, completely making Lao Ai lose her resistance.

Ability.

Lao Ai coughed up blood and fell to the ground in a state of embarrassment. Guard Wei Jie, Zuo Yi Jie and Neishi Si beside him were also instantly subdued by a group of military generals.

Ying Zheng came to Zhao Ji's side under the escort of a group of lieutenants. Looking at Zhao Ji who was safe and sound and Zhang Ji with blood in his hands, he glanced at Lao Ai with a gloomy expression and waved his hand.

"Take him down and keep him under strict supervision. Don't let him die so easily!"

Meng Wu, Li Xin, and Qiang You were very measured in their actions and dealt a fatal blow to Lao Ai, only causing heavy damage.

Because what awaits Lao Ai and his gang members next will be the most severe punishment in the Qin Dynasty.
