A piece of snowflake hits the face and turns into water, which is cool and comfortable.
Xu Zhiqiong took out the saber from the neck of a Tunu man and took away the sin of that Tunu man.
It's time for Niu Yuxian to polish the sword again. This sword has killed a lot of people recently.
After breaking through the Tunu camp, the next step of the army's battle plan is to clear out all the Tunu troops in southern Yongzhou and open up the supply lines at three dangerous passes.
There were more than a thousand Tunu people in the camp that had just been destroyed, and they had just come from the north by climbing over the mountains. They originally wanted to meet Nie Gulai, but unfortunately they had no chance to meet in the underworld.
It was also the first time for the prince to come to Yongzhou. The weather in Yongzhou made him very uncomfortable. He kept sneezing along the way, but he was not merciless at all when killing people.
"This sword is not very handy, please give me a spear!" The prince was quite picky when it came to weapons.
"Your Highness, you can't rush forward any more!" Lu Yunxi kept scolding, "You scared me to death just now. The arrows shot all over the sky. If you still rush forward, do you regard yourself as a soldier?
?”
The prince said impatiently: "Luo Si! Luo Si! I said I wouldn't let you come, but you insist on coming. Let Taibu take you back tomorrow!"
Lu Yunxi said: "Your Highness, it's fine if you don't listen to my advice. I'll tell Elder Shengwei about this so that you won't be able to go to the battlefield in the future!"
Liang Jixiong was listening next to him.
"Yuyang, you are indeed a little reckless today. You should never rush in front of me. You must follow me next time!"
"Second brother, if I follow you and you kill everyone, I won't get a single head."
"I brought you to fight, not to kill!"
"Second brother, but we..."
"Stop calling me second brother, I am your ancestor!"
…
Liang Yuyang felt that Liang Jixiong was boring, so she approached Xu Zhiqiong and said, "How many people have you killed today?"
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a while: "About thirty or so."
"More than thirty? I have thirty-two. Do I have more or less than you?"
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "I killed thirty-five, which is more than you!"
Liang Yuming was unhappy again.
"You came earlier than me and know how to attack on the battlefield. If I had come a few days earlier, I wouldn't lose to you!"
"Your Highness, you really don't go to the battlefield just to kill people!"
"I came here just to kill Mao Sha!" The prince looked at a burned village behind him, "I just came out of that village, and even the children who couldn't walk were chopped into pieces by Mao Sha.
I made some rough calculations, killing one Maosha can earn Daxuan ten lives. This time I have to kill him more harshly, and beat these beasts until they are so painful that they will never dare to touch Daxuan again in their lives!
"
Xu Zhiqiong looked at the prince and felt increasingly happy.
Don't talk about the overall situation, don't talk about games, don't talk about principles that no one can understand.
What the prince said is right! These bastards should be beaten and hurt!
Regardless of past life or this life, this is the unchanging truth!
As he walked, Xu Zhiqiong suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart. He could feel someone calling him, and he knew that this person was Yang Wu.
When did Yang Wu have such ability?
The prince asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Do you need to urinate?"
"No, it's not an urgent need to urinate..." He didn't have enough time to urinate to go back to Zhonglang Courtyard, so Xu Zhiqiong had to think of a better excuse.
The prince looked at Xu Zhiqiong, his face was a little red, he was sweating a little, and his breathing was a little short.
"Brother, are you feeling anxious? I know it's not easy in this military camp, but the second elder has rules and won't let me bring women over. Fortunately, I still have two young eunuchs with fine features and beautiful eyes, who are more handsome than women.
It is said that round ones are better than flat ones, do you think..."
"I don't want to!" Xu Zhiqiong waved his hand and said, "I'm just dizzy. I just need to rest for a while. Your Highness, you go ahead."
Xu Zhiqiong found a place where there was no one around, held the Yilang Seal, and returned to Zhonglang Courtyard.
Chang Decai told him about the beatings of the ministers, and Xu Zhiqiong frowned.
"Gongsun Wen is a vicious dog who bares his teeth whenever he gets the chance! He used to do evil things before, but now he dares to kill imperial officials in the street. Does Liang Daguan's family not care?"
Xu Zhiqiong thought about it carefully and realized that there was a problem that Liang Daguan's family might not be able to control.
There is a high probability that he has already been tricked!
Xu Zhiqiong was in a great mood! While dancing, he fell into the backyard pond.
Chang Decai quickly fished Xu Zhiqiong out. Xu Zhiqiong said angrily: "Didn't I tell you? Fill up this pond for me!"
Yang Wu explained: "We have filled it in, but we have no soil. In order to dig out the soil, I dug another pond!"
"You said you, what did you want me to say about you..." Xu Zhiqiong changed his clothes, because he was happy and didn't care about Yang Wu.
I'm happy, but the matter of Wang Yanyang and a group of officials still needs to be resolved.
Chang Decai said: "I have heard that as long as an official approaches the palace now, he will definitely be beaten. If three people gather together, they may be beaten to death!"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Isn't this nonsense? What if we go to court? Can't we go to court together?"
Chang Decai shook his head and said: "These days, the slave family, that... our family has never seen the emperor."
It seems that Liang Daguan's family has really been tricked.
But the civil and military ministers just let themselves be slaughtered?
Wang Yanyang is an upright official. He has no followers and no decent guards.
But the chief minister of the cabinet should not do it, and the ministers should not do it!
Chang Decai did have some experience: "For first- and second-grade officials, there may be a few sixth- and seventh-grade experts around them. For other officials, it would be good to have an eighth-grade official beside them.
Even if you are the chief minister of the cabinet, if you have a sixth-grade person at home, you must use it carefully and don't take it out easily. This capital is the emperor's territory after all, and it is best for officials to avoid interacting with experts."
What Chang Decai said was that even if the sixth-grade masters were brought out, they might not be able to stop the Longnu Society. There were many people in the Longnu Society, and Gongsun Wen was behind them. Gongsun Wen was really pissed off, and there was nothing anyone could do to him.
.
Wait, someone has a way to take advantage of him...
If he makes things big, someone will naturally take care of him!
The top priority is to rescue these officials first. These people are the backbone of the imperial court.
But the biggest problem at hand is that Xu Zhiqiong cannot show up easily and does not have enough energy.
The main focus now must be on the northern battlefield. More than 6,000 troops look like a lot, but if something goes wrong, they will be gone in the blink of an eye.
There are still three dangerous passes waiting for food. As long as one of the dangerous passes is lost and Tunu's army comes over, the battle will be doomed.
Chang Decai said: "Master, if you can trust us, I will leave this matter to our family."
"I can trust you, but you have to have someone to help you!" When Xu Zhiqiong killed the Confucian scholar, there was a Deng Deng Yamen behind him. Chang De alone could not defeat the Dragon Nu Society.
Yang Wu said from the side: "Actually, we also have a lamp-holding office behind us. Even if there is no one, there is still a lamp!"
Xu Zhiqiong was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed.
Yang Wu had always had a regret during his lifetime, and this time he might be able to make up for it.
Xu Zhiqiong went to the main room and took out the white and green lanterns.
"The red lantern is my weapon and I can't give it to you. The green lantern and the white lantern are also mine and are given to you. Which of you will be the green lantern man? You can decide for yourself."
Chang Decai smiled and said: "Our family is a white light, let Yang Wu be promoted to an official."
Yang Wu shook his head and said: "I want this white lantern. I was a lantern bearer for nothing. I didn't know how to be a lantern bearer before, but now I should do it properly!"
Xu Zhiqiong made a plan for the two of them and returned to Yongzhou immediately.
…
Late at night, Wang Yanyang was tied up in front of the Longnu Club, dying.
Cui Zhiming lowered his voice and said: "Brother, you have to hold on. I have gathered some strength and the rope on my body is about to break free. I will take you with me later!"
Wang Yanyang shook his head. The two of them ran together before. Wang Yanyang's legs were slow and he didn't run away, but Cui Zhiming was hurt.
"Brother, run away by yourself, live well, and never mind me!"
"Cui is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"
"Keep your voice down. This has nothing to do with greed for life and fear of death. Our spine is still there and we cannot let it die in the hands of these pigs and dogs. Go quickly!"
While they were talking, Zhou Haiqiu came over and squatted in front of the two of them.
Although this guy was wearing a robe and a Confucian crown, his appearance was still as hateful as before.
He patted Cui Zhiming’s face:
"What are you doing? You want to run? Where do you want to run? Have you two been beaten enough? How come you have such no memory!"
Cui Zhiming spat at Zhou Haiqiu.
Zhou Haiqiu stood up and ran away, and said with a ferocious smile: "You rebels and traitors are all pretending to be upright, but now why don't you dare to run away openly? I asked you to run away, just try to run away! Run away!"
He kicked and beat Wang Yanyang, and Cui Zhiming shouted: "Come at me if you can, and don't hurt the old censor again!"
Zhou Haiqiu turned around and kicked Cui Zhiming: "Why are you coming at me? Why are you afraid of you as a young master?"
Cui Zhiming sneered: "You were the one who cried for father and mother in front of me, right?"
Zhou Haiqiu became furious and grabbed Cui Zhiming's hair and kicked him hard:
"Why the hell are you crying for father and mother? I have never called you, sir. Why the hell are you running? Run and show me. Can't you break the rope? Break it and see!
If you dare to break the rope, I will chop off one of your hands. If you dare to take a step, I will chop off one of your feet. If you even curse me, if you curse me again, I will cut it off.
…”
Zhou Haiqiu suddenly lost his voice. He had been holding Cui Zhiming's hair, but his hand suddenly lost strength.
Cui Zhiming broke away?
No! That hand is still holding on to his hair.
But why can't I use the strength?
Looking at his bare wrist, Zhou Haiqiu seemed to understand.
The hand is still in the hair, but the hand is no longer on the arm.
Chang Decai did not know when he appeared behind Zhou Haiqiu and cut off his right hand with a knife.
"Mother, mother, mother!" Zhou Haiqiu cried out hoarsely, calling her mother.
A group of Confucian scholars from Longnu Society gathered over, supported Zhou Haiqiu, looked at Chang Decai, and shouted sternly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Seeing Zhou Haiqiu's broken arm, these Confucian scholars were very scared.
But there was a woman opposite, and there were so many of them, so it was okay to hit a woman.
A young Confucian scholar shouted: "Woman who doesn't know how to die, who ordered you to come!"
A middle-aged Confucian scholar shouted: "You hurt our Senior Brother Zhou, I must cut you into pieces with a thousand knives!"
Chang Decai smiled and said: "At your age, you still call him Senior Brother? If his father becomes more senior, wouldn't you want to call him Grandpa Senior?"
The middle-aged man was furious: "Dear classmates, please don't chat with her, rush forward and skin her alive!"
The Confucian scholars were about to rush forward, but they never thought that a man jumped out from behind the woman, holding a white lamp in his hand.
Seeing this white lamp, the Confucian scholars lost much of their momentum.
Yang Wu held up a white lantern and came to the crowd and said: "Detain the imperial official and wait until you are convicted?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Confucian scholars dispersed in a rush, leaving Zhou Haiqiu behind.
When Xu Zhiqiong's name is mentioned, Confucian scholars dare not walk at night!
Now that he saw the living lantern man, whether it was Xu Zhiqiong or not, the fear engraved in the soul of the Confucian scholar suddenly broke out.
Zhou Haiqiu wanted to run away, but Yang Wu kicked Zhou Haiqiu down on the ground, stepped forward and stepped on the back of his head, shouting: "Beating an official of the imperial court, injuring others to death, do you admit your guilt?"
Zhou Haiqiu, who was originally wailing, was too frightened to cry.
"I, I, I was wrong, I, I beg you, spare my life..."
"Spare you?" Yang Wu smiled ferociously, "You just said you were going to chop off Scholar Cui's hand. Now I've chopped off your hand. You also said you were going to chop off Scholar Cui's feet. I'll chop off your feet again."
Already."
Yang Wu turned around and chopped off Zhou Haiqiu's feet.
Zhou Haiqiu shouted so hard that his throat broke, and he started calling his parents again.
"I asked my father to kill you. I, my father will be here soon, and my mother will come too. I will kill you..."
Yang Wu smiled and said: "You also said you wanted to cut something, is it your tongue? Let me see where your tongue is?"
Zhou Haiqiu kept his mouth shut, and Yang Wu broke his jaw and pulled out his tongue.
…
An hour later, Zhou Kairong came to the clubhouse and saw a headless corpse.
"Son, my son..." Zhou Kairong recognized the body at a glance and burst into tears immediately.
A Confucian scholar next to him said tremblingly: "Yes, it was made by the lantern holder."
"Isn't Daxuan no longer a king?" Zhou Kairong cried, "The yamen in charge of the lamp! I am irreconcilable with you!"
