The snow fell heavily, confusing everyone's eyes. The frost and snow on the snow swallowed many stone steps, and the dense crowd blocked the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen. Mobile version https://
Zhu Xian walked from the front office to the back. The officials who heard the sound called "Sir" one after another and looked at him with their eyes open.
Before he came back, Kyoto had been in chaos for a whole day, making the entire Jingzhao Mansion fearful. Zhu Xian, who had been missing for a day and had not been seen for a long time, made many people think that he had died in the chaos of war, or had escaped.
Zhu Xian was dressed in weathered clothes and his hair was disheveled. He was striding forward. He looked very embarrassed, but in the eyes of everyone, he seemed to be very different from usual. His eyes were like a bright burning fire, shining brightly.
Clear and thorough.
"Prepare the household registration quickly," Zhu Xian shouted when he entered the back office, "Cao Sihu, give me the list of the merchants who have paid the most taxes recently! Lin Judi and Fan Jietui have been more violent in crime in recent years and have fought fiercely.
Give me the list of all the gangsters who have been arrested and imprisoned!"
His voice was loud and loud as he spoke quickly, without stopping as he continued to give orders and mobilize manpower.
The situation was critical and serious. The officials whose names were called and the junior officials following them did not ask any further questions. They immediately accepted the order and turned around to leave.
At the same time, several carriages bypassed the front office, passed through the back gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and headed to the avenue on the other side.
The streets are still crowded with people, the windows of buildings are full of silhouettes, torches are burning high, and there is a faint breeze in the wind and snow.
After the carriage left the intersection, a car headed towards Huaizhou Street.
Wei Zhengzheng lifted the curtain and looked at the carriage, saying, "I never thought it would be so smooth today."
Zhao Ning was sitting in the car and said after hearing this: "It's not that we are smooth, but that the emperor is smooth."
"Is it okay, Your Majesty?" Wei Cheng frowned.
"You may not understand how much energy Ah Li has," Zhao Ning looked out the window at the crowded sea of people and said, "Manager Chu, what do you think is the most valuable thing when two armies are fighting?"
"Strength?" Manager Chu said.
"How is that possible?" Zhao Ning said.
"It's not about troops, but about food and grass?"
Wei Chang shook his head and said, "It's a weapon."
"Weapons?" Manager Chu was puzzled, "How different can weapons be, and how can they compare to military strength?"
"It is indeed a weapon," Zhao Ning said. "One person holds a short sword and one person holds a spear. The long spear is better. But if one person holds a spear and one person holds a long-range shooting crossbow, then the crossbow can be taken ten steps away."
The life of the person who speared the spear. Furthermore, if the improved crossbow can shoot ten crossbow arrows at one time, can it be said that one is against ten?"
Manager Wei thought of the arm crossbow he had picked up when a beggar was killed on the street. Although the inside was completely damaged, when he got it, the outer texture could still be felt to be well-made.
He understood what Zhao Ning meant.
"What's more," Zhao Ning said again, "what if we add poison and mechanisms. The really powerful people can do it not only with one against ten, but also with one against a hundred. Ah Li has been running around for half a year, for
It's tonight, how could she not be fully prepared? I've seen how powerful she is, so I said tonight was the smoothest for the emperor, and that's true, because both Ah Li and I let him go.
"
Regarding Zhao Ning's plan to incite the people, Wei Zongzhi did not know, but Chu Guanshi did.
Manager Chu looked at the carriage moving slowly forward at the other end of the street. He was really curious about what kind of relationship Zhao Ning had with such a little girl, so that Zhao Ning, who was indifferent, wary and calculating towards everyone, only treated her like this.
Sincerely.
The carriage was very slow. Fortunately, although the streets were congested, they were still flowing.
There are three avenues in total at the open street entrance. At the entrance of the avenue leading to Jinfeng Lake Bridge in the south, hundreds of men are collecting corpses. In the night illuminated by torches, they carry the corpses of civilians and pile them up by the roadside.
Xia Zhaoyi's hand lifted the curtain. The corpses were stained with blood, some were seriously injured, and the skin on their faces was broken into two halves.
"Feng Lei did it, Commander-in-Chief of the Xuanwu Army." Shen Lie said.
"This impetuous and reckless man," Xia Zhaoyi frowned, "He should be regretting it now, but Li Zhi has already left the capital, so he has nothing to fear."
With that said, Xia Zhaoyi looked at Shen Lie and said, "Shen Lie, why did you appear at Zhao'an Bridge?"
Shen Lie withdrew his eyes from the corpses, said "hmm" and said, "I guessed you would go there."
"You were already injured when you came."
"Small injury." Shen Lie replied.
But when he mentioned the wounds on his body, the wounds began to hurt again, sharp and bone-piercing.
Today he left Shangshi Pavilion and was going to Dongping Academy. When he first arrived at Huaizhou Street, he met Zhao Datou, who he had been looking for before.
Zhao Datou was tied up and dragged to a street corner, shouting for help. Shen Lie ignored him and thought of saving people, so he followed him in. Unexpectedly, it was a plot.
It is easy to hide from open spears, but difficult to guard against hidden arrows. There are at least ten people holding crossbows hiding in the dark. As soon as he chases after him, those crossbows will shoot at him quickly.
He was caught off guard, wounded and hid in a blind corner. Then more than twenty killers rushed towards him. If there were no unnecessary words, they would chop him with their swords.
To this day, Shen Lie doesn't know who these people are and why they want to use Zhao Datou as bait to plot against him.
As for Zhao Datou, I don’t know whether he is alive or dead now.
Xia Zhaoyi's eyes fell on the back of Shen Lie's hand. These wounds alone were no longer minor wounds. They penetrated deeply into the flesh and tore the flesh. How could they be minor wounds, let alone the wounds on his body.
At this time, a very loud gong sound suddenly sounded in the distance.
Although most of the people were on the streets, it was almost early in the morning and everyone was very sleepy and tired. The gongs sounded together in the wind and snow, and no one could even react.
Xia Zhaoyi followed the sound and looked outside, wondering what was happening.
With a casual glance, she was stunned for a moment, and then the look in her eyes changed drastically.
Shen Lie noticed it and said, "Ah Li?"
Xia Zhaoyi's heartbeat was racing. He looked away and said quickly: "I have something important to do. You have a good rest after you go back. I will come to see you someday."
"Why is it so urgent?" Shen Lie was puzzled.
Xia Zhaoyi said nothing, said goodbye, and raised his hand to lift the curtain.
The slow-moving carriage did not need to stop at all. Xia Zhaoyi said something to the driver, jumped off the carriage and ran towards the west.
Shen Lie followed and looked up to see the girl already dozens of feet away.
"Shen Langjun," said the coachman Zhao Ning left behind, "do you want to get off the car?"
Shen Lie glanced at him and shook his head: "No."
No one likes to be pestered and followed like this, and she shouldn't be in any big danger.
However, she was so restless, what did she see?
Xia Zhaoyi ran into an alley and looked around.
There were many people around, but they didn't see the woman she saw.
