On the first day of the five-day period, the day and night passed peacefully.
After Pingyuan Lord Zhao Ling got up the next morning, as usual, he first performed a sword dance in the courtyard to warm up.
"Have the people from Hongyuan come back?" he asked while dancing with his sword.
The sword servant replied: "There is no news yet. The action last night should be back in Handan by noon today at the latest."
"Well, today is the second day. No matter what the result is, the Zhu family should set off."
Zhao Ling was calculating the time for the rumors to ferment in his mind, and was considering when to make the final move when he suddenly heard a noise outside the mansion.
Chaotic horse hooves, heavy footsteps, and the friction of metal surrounded the entire mansion, shocking the people in the mansion into chaos.
A servant crawled around, not caring that this was his master's resting place, and barged in, shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Something bad has happened, something bad has happened~ Lu Yan,
Lu Yan led his troops, and he led his troops to the door!"
"What! Lu Yan came to the door with his troops?" Zhao Ling suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart.
So far, I have never seen any good ending if I fall into the hands of Lu Yan. But why does he dare to mobilize troops to catch him?
Outside the Pingyuan Lord's Mansion, the Qin army had formed a formation, with swords and shields in the front and bows and arrows in the back, completely surrounding them.
Inside the gate of the foreign palace, all the guests were neatly arranged, clutching their weapons tightly, ready to deal with the Qin army at any time.
Lu Yan put one hand on the hilt of the Changhong Sword at his waist, stared at these loyal disciples, and shook his head, "Pingyuan Jun Zhao Ling, your master, planned the Haxian County and Gaoyi more than 2,000 hectares ten days ago.
Field disaster.
This kind of behavior is killing both heaven and man. I will lead the army to arrest you, so don't persist in your stubbornness."
"Fart! Your Majesty understands justice well, how could he be such a villain as you say!"
"Lu Yan, if you want to inflict crimes, why bother! You have committed serious crimes, are incompetent in governing the land, and cannot find out the truth about the disaster, so you kill innocent people indiscriminately as an excuse. Bah~"
"Brothers, a scholar will die for his confidant. We will never let the Qin people step into the gate of the palace!"
"Kill~"
Seeing this, Lu Yan frowned and swung his sword. In an instant, thousands of arrows were fired from behind the military formation, and a rain of arrows covered the sky and poured down.
These disciples looked crude, but they were many with strong martial arts skills. When a wave of arrows rained down, half of them actually tried to resist.
The officer turned his head and glanced at Lu Yan's expression. He immediately drew his sword and took the lead, "Follow me into the gate of the mansion and capture Zhao Ling alive~"
"Kill~"
The soldiers and the retainers fought hand to hand, and relied on the strength of the crowd to continuously advance into the mansion.
Bai Feng led a group of birds to shuttle among the high walls and pavilions, specifically hunting those with obviously superior martial arts.
No matter how much strength Zhao Ling retained in normal times, facing the army that came directly to the door at this moment, it only bought him a little time to struggle.
Mo Ya has already brought people back to Handan and is following the clues to seize the involved shops in Handan City.
Feng Jie mobilized his army to blockade the entire city of Handan. No one who has anything to do with Zhao Ling can escape today.
The outer palace was quickly broken through, and when a group of soldiers broke into the inner palace, they finally saw Pingyuan Lord Zhao Ling coming out.
Zhao Ling was holding the Xiqu Jade Sword, and the shock of the sword around him caused all the Qin troops to retreat.
He looked at Lu Yan, who was sitting in the middle of the army in the distance, and said with a gloomy face: "Master, since Ling surrendered to the Qin State, he has abided by the law and cooperated with the Qin system. There will never be a day when he forgets it. Today you directly lead the troops.
What do you mean by killing people at my door?"
Zhao Ling is wearing a set of dark blue robes, a shawl as red as a phoenix fire, a dark gold crown inlaid with jade, and a warm white jade sword in his hand. He is really a handsome young man.
It was a good thing that Lu Yan didn't see other people. As soon as he saw the real person, the two thousand innocent souls who had died under his butcher's knife whispered in his ears.
He slowly walked towards Zhao Ling, and the air around him began to heat up with his footsteps, "Abiding by the law? Those who use this word to shine brightly, most of them are scum."
Zhao Ling's forehead was already covered with cold sweat. Facing Lu Yan at this moment, he felt a kind of terror. Not only was he unable to control his life and death, he even felt like his spiritual will was being crushed.
He pointed his jade sword, stared straight-eyed and shouted with an inward look: "Qin Fa pays attention to facts and evidence. Lu Yan, what kind of evidence are you talking about when you raise an army to take me? Do you want to take the lead yourself and know the law and break it!"
"Evidence?" Lu Yan appeared in front of him like a ghost, with a flash of red light, and the Changhong Sword pierced the tip of the Xiqu Jade Sword.
There was only a moment of stalemate, and cracks began to spread from the tip of the white jade sword, and finally the pieces fell to the ground.
Zhao Ling vomited blood and flew backwards, kneeling on the ground far away.
"I will let all Zhao people see what good deeds you, the noble son of the Zhao family, have done."
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Zhao Ling was injured, the swordsman bravely led the remaining disciples to resist, "I will die today. I will be loyal to you. Kill~"
"Be loyal to your Majesty~"
The last strength of the Pingyuan Lord's Mansion was still gathered here in the inner palace. These retainers were outstanding in strength. Lu Yan then waved his hand and asked the Qin army to line up with shields and the crossbowmen to shoot, leaving the battlefield to Bai Feng to take over.
After the fighting ended, he glanced at the corpses of these retainers and ordered the soldiers to capture the entire mansion, regardless of age, women, or children.
Lu Yan personally led troops to capture Pingyuan Lord Zhao Ling and his family; Mo Ya led people to capture the main personnel of Qiyun and Hongyuan businesses, and one third of the businesses in Handan City were temporarily closed.
"Oh my God, what is going on? Even if the whole city is blocked, this is..."
"How many people were arrested at once?"
The Qin army escorted all the prisoners outside the city, and the procession stretched like a long snake on Handan Street for an unknown distance.
Due to the immediate closure of the city, there were countless idlers in Handan who had nothing to do for the time being and were joining in the fun. When the people heard that such a big event had happened, they all came out to watch.
"Oh my God, has Pingyuan Lord Zhao Ling's whole family been arrested?"
"What did he commit? The whole family, young and old, are being detained."
"The only thing Lu Yan is investigating these days is the farm disaster."
"No way, Mr. Pingyuan is such a good person."
"Dong~dong~dong"
The drums in the east city of Handan City rang, and the government officially announced to everyone that Pingyuan Lord Zhao Ling was the mastermind behind the Tianmu disaster, and his crimes would be publicly tried outside Handan City at noon today.
As soon as the announcement came out, the whole city of Handan went crazy.
People's enthusiasm for eating melons has really existed since ancient times. The Qin army here is still escorting prisoners, and many people are already preparing to run to the venue of the public trial.
In this earth-shattering case, almost everyone who was not particularly concerned chose to see the truth for themselves.
What should those who have shops in Handan do? Use your brain, just get some food and drink in the car and sell them on site, maybe you can make a small profit.
The noisy noise outside woke up Duan Murong. She straightened up, rubbed her head, and suddenly looked at the medicine stove next to her, "Fortunately, I fell asleep after finishing."
She listened to the noise outside and went to find water to wash her face and wake up her sleepy head.
Duan Murong walked out with the prepared medicine. When she saw Nianduan, she asked: "Master, there is such a big movement outside, have you caught the mastermind behind it?"
"It is said that it is Zhao Ling, Prince of Pingyuan, who will be put on trial at noon today." Nianduan noticed the medicine bag in her hand and nodded with a smile, "It seems that the poison is really not a problem for you."
"It's all taught well by Master."
Duan Murong smiled, and the green lotus swayed.
She walked up to the green sword, hesitated for a moment, then solemnly grabbed the sword and ran out.
