Following the city wall, several of Sun Zhixian's followers hid in the shade of the trees and whispered softly. They vaguely heard angry scoldings and even wailing coming from the courtyard not far away, which made them very uneasy.
When several people were feeling restless, the courtyard door opened and a guard walked out and waved to them, and several people trotted over in a hurry.
"Sun Zhixian's affair with the Tatars is actually a spy who came to spy on the military situation. The governor has ordered you to be detained and severely interrogated. Is there anyone who knows about it?" The guard shouted angrily, which frightened several of the followers and knelt down:
"Master Jun, we are just gatekeepers and drivers. We really don't know. Please Master Jun, please let us go..."
To put it bluntly, these followers were all honest farm men, but they had heard about Dongchang's bad reputation, so they couldn't help but be so frightened that they immediately cried out for mercy.
"Our Dongchang always enforces the law impartially. We only arrest the principal criminals and do not implicate the innocent. Since you didn't know, you left early. Remember not to talk nonsense."
As soon as the followers heard that he was being pardoned, they kowtowed and hurried away without even having the guts to ask anything else.
In the yard, Chang Yu watched two Dongchang fanzi artists designing their works, sewing Sun Zhixie's mouth shut, pricking needle holes all over his body and stuffing pig hair...
After a while, Sun Zhixian turned into a humanoid hedgehog covered in blood. He struggled wildly under the severe pain, and his heart was filled with anger and confusion.
However, the more I struggled, the more painful it became.
The tortured person was in unbearable pain, and the onlookers could not bear to look at it. Chen Suole and others even turned around and vomited. Even Kuang Ren, who had killed many people in the army, felt that this was too cruel and inhumane, so at first he often
When Yu asked them to carry out the execution, no one dared to take action. In the end, professionals were needed, two people from Dongchang.
However, the little eunuch's expression remained unchanged from beginning to end, he just sat quietly and watched. His subordinates didn't know why he suddenly changed his mind and became so cruel and twisted.
But only those who know what Sun Zhixian has done will feel happy and deserve it!
However, Chen Suole and other personal guards did not know what this man had committed. In fact, even Sun Zhixian himself did not know what the hell I had done!
But having said that, Chang Yu is already very kind. In history, all seven members of Sun Zhixian's family died, but now he is the only one killed.
"If you old dog can survive tomorrow, I will let you go." Chang Yu stood up and looked at the blood ball in front of him and snorted. He was also muttering in his heart. Historically, Sun Zhixian was made to live like this for two days.
A miracle!
Sun Zhixian no longer knew how many times he had fainted from pain. He could not speak but could hear. He was dying when he suddenly heard the little eunuch's words. He opened his eyes and nodded vigorously.
"Don't worry, my governor's words are hard to follow." Chang Yu said coldly to the two fans: "Take good care of him, and it won't be in vain for someone to come to your door a hundred miles away."
With that said, he waved and led the others to leave.
In a remote area of the county government office, Li Muxian was holding a book of scriptures to teach the little Taoist children how to read and write. Zhu Cian was making tea beside him and asking questions about the Qingzhou War. Young people were good at this, but Li Muxian did not participate in the war and knew the details.
After a while, he told him a story about entering the mountain. Zhu Ci'an still didn't finish what he meant, and Li Muxian became a little annoyed, but he couldn't afford to offend Prince Heng.
When I was worried, I saw Chang Yu coming back. I quickly stood up and greeted: "Have you finished greeting the factory owner's 400-year-old acquaintance?"
"We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years, and we feel like old friends when we meet. I want to treat you well." Chang Yu said and sat down, picked up the teapot and drank. Li Muchian was about to ask more when he suddenly saw Chen Suole and others had strange expressions on their faces. He was a human spirit and immediately shut up.
But Zhu Cian didn't have such eyesight, so he asked Chang Yu stupidly: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, are you and Sun Zhixian really old friends?"
"That's not true." Chang Yu put down the teapot: "Do you know who he is?"
Zhu Ci'an shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, but I am an old friend of the factory supervisor and I am from the same hometown and I will visit him more often in the future."
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Don't let it happen in the future. I'm afraid you won't have the chance in the future. If His Highness the Crown Prince wants to visit, just ask them to take you there." Chang Yu smiled half-heartedly. Zhu Cian felt something was wrong and turned to look at Chen Suo.
Seeing that his expressions were all unkind, Le and the others finally came to their senses and hurriedly said: "We'll talk about it later, we'll talk about it later." They secretly sighed in their hearts that they were too young after all. It's okay that an old fox like Li Muxian couldn't compare to him. Even Zou Fengji was far behind.
Far worse. No wonder he hurried out of the county office after making arrangements. He said he was busy with official business and hid outside. He had already seen the clues.
"Since you are not in a hurry to see me, His Highness, please quickly pack up and return to Qingzhou City with our family."
"Ah, are you leaving now?" Zhu Cian was startled.
"Otherwise, why don't you wait until dark before leaving? You are not afraid of danger, but our family is still afraid." Chang Yu glanced at him, and Zhu Ci'an quickly waved his hand: "How many days does Ci'an think the factory supervisor will stay in Linzi?"
"Our family also thinks that although Linzi is a small city, it is very peaceful. It would be good to stay here for a few days for peace and quiet." Chang Yu said, "But our family is born to work hard, so we are not lucky enough to enjoy a quiet moment."
Zhu Cian said nothing more, turned around and left.
Chang Yu called the Taoist boy to play with him, and Li Muchian came over and sat down: "The factory owner is anxious to return to Qingzhou because he is waiting for a message from the court."
Chang Yu nodded: "If the prediction is good, I will come tonight and decide whether it is a fight or a draw."
"What if the imperial court must make peace?"
Li Muxian asked, he knew that the young eunuch was already ready for a fight and had laid out various plans. If the imperial court wanted to make peace, wouldn't it be in vain?
"If the imperial court wants peace, our family will make peace, but our family decides how to make peace." Chang Yu smiled slightly and continued to tease the little Taoist boy. Li Muchian let out an ooh, knowing that no matter whether it was a fight or a peace this time, the little eunuch would not
If he wants to make a fuss about it, Dorgon's wishful thinking may involve himself.
At Shenshi, more than a hundred cavalry galloped out of the north gate of Linzi. Chang Yu picked up the young Taoist boy and Prince Heng's son Zhu Cian. Zou Fengji was worried about the safety on the road and repeatedly suggested Chang Yu to take away the 300 soldiers and horses in the city, but the young eunuch refused.
At that time, more than ten people were fearless, but when Zhu Cian's servants were added to the crowd, there were hundreds of people, so why should they be afraid?
Kuang Ren led more than ten bodyguards in front, Chang Yu was in the middle and left and right, guarded by masters such as Chen Suole and Qiao Sanxiu. Li Muxian held the little Taoist boy in his arms and sat together on a horse. Next to him was Zhu Cian, and behind him were nearly a hundred servants, who were riding horses.
I hurriedly estimated that I could reach Qingzhou City before dark.
Chang Yu's riding skills are getting better and better day by day. He is no longer what he used to be. Not only can he fight with horses, he can also draw a bow and shoot at a gallop, and he can hit nine out of ten shots. He is very active by nature and after running for several miles, he breaks away from the formation and catches up with Kuang Ren.
They competed side by side on their feet, and when they encountered wild animals and birds, they used their bows to hunt, which attracted cheers from the soldiers, and even more made Zhu Ci yearn for peace. He also wanted to be this kind of person, holding a heavy army in his hand, walking across the battlefield, mounting his horse, bending his bow to shoot eagles, and dismounting without saying a word.
Blood splattered ten steps!
"Be on guard!" Just as everyone was cheering for the horses to race, a warning signal was suddenly heard from the front. The soldiers immediately prepared for battle and surrounded Chang Yu, Zhu Cian and others.
In the distance, more than a dozen fast horses were approaching. Kuang Ren drew his bow and took aim, holding his breath.
Soon the dozen or so cavalrymen also discovered them, slowed down and looked in this direction, and Kuang Ren suddenly put away his bow and arrows, said to Chang Yu: "One of our own" and then sent a team of personal guards to check.
After a while, the dozen or so riders came into view, and everyone was startled. It turned out that they were actually from Dongchang. Their faces were tired and dusty, and they looked like they were veteran drivers who had run long distances.
Chang Yu couldn't hold himself back at first: "But a letter from Beijing?"
"Back to the factory, sir, the emperor's secret message," Fanzi said, taking out the letter and handing it to Chang Yu. The little eunuch reached out to take it and was secretly surprised. The speed of these eight hundred miles was really amazing. It was more than eight hundred kilometers from Beijing to Qingzhou. These people traveled all the way.
Changing horses and people without stopping, we arrived in less than twenty-four hours.
