At the same time, Xiao Tang and several people personally rushed to the residence of the Sino-Korean depository in Bianjing to express their condolences. After hearing that this man with whom he had a close friendship in the past fought to the death and died heroically for his country when the Jin army conquered Bianjing, Xiao Tang felt extremely sad.
It was very sad, and Yang Wen, who had returned to Bianjing with Han Cunbao, was also saddened to learn that the two old brothers Kai Kai and Wang Wende had also died in the battle with the Jin army commanded by Wanyan Orulubu.
, very sad.
Thinking that the officials were frightened by the Jin army at that time, and even ordered the soldiers and civilians in Bianliang City in Tokyo not to resist, Yang Wen was completely cold-blooded, and even more determined to abandon the ancestral home of Yang Mansion in Zhongtianbo, Bianjing, and follow Xiao Tang.
And went north to fight against the Jin Dynasty.
"Three generations of our Yang family have served the Song Dynasty loyally, and we have never let down the country... In fact, it is all because Liu Jiyuan, the last monarch of the Han Dynasty who was loyal to our ancestors, trusted the young and rejected the talented, which caused the political affairs to become dysfunctional and finally became poor.
After a sudden surrender, I, the general of the Yang family, turned to join the Song Dynasty... Now that the first emperor of the Song Dynasty has lost power and the official family is weak, the Bianjing country can be surrendered to foreign invaders and Tatars, but we are still willing to serve the country.
What is the use of the ministers who sacrificed their lives? What is the difference between the imperial court today and the imperial court of the Northern Han Dynasty that our ancestors also pledged allegiance to?"
Yang Wen said angrily, knowing that these words were treasonous, but how could they not be the truth? Now the fetters of his family could no longer restrain Yang Wen from continuing to be loyal to the court. He looked at Yang Zhi who was beside him with emotion.
There is no longer any quarrel or estrangement between the descendants of the Yang family.
Seeing that Wang Huan, Yang Wen, Xu Jing and other Jiedushi generals told the old story, they have now temporarily taken over Bianliang in Tokyo, supervising the two emperors, patrolling the city, appeasing the people... There are still many important matters that need to be dealt with personally.
Xiao Tang also said goodbye to a group of close brothers for the time being. After Wang Huan and others left Han Cunbao's residence, Lin Chong, Suo Chao and other brothers came to report that Wang Shiyong, Xu Bingzhe and others had committed a wanton robbery of Song Dynasty women Xiaojing Jin.
All the traitors responsible for the army's evil deeds were also captured and detained. Together with the powerful traitor previously detained from the prisoners of the Song Dynasty, Xiao Tang knew that it was time to make a big move again, striving to further control the people's hearts, and gradually the power he had formed was enough to
Fighting against the orthodox imperial court of the Central Plains...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
On the morning of the next day, the city hall near the Bianhezhou Bridge in Bianliang, Tokyo, was already crowded with thousands of people. The people of Bianjing gathered here, because Xiao Tang also sent the leaders of the ministries under his command to inform the people in the city that they were going to be here today.
Tong Guan, Cai You, Liang Shicheng and other powerful traitors who controlled the government during Zhao Ji's time in power, as well as Wang Shiyong, Xu Bingzhe and other sycophants who bent their knees to serve money, were all beheaded in public.
It was clearly announced that the execution was to be carried out at noon, but in order to vent the pent-up anger in their chests, many people came here early to see the national traitor brought to justice. After waiting for a long time, they could hear the sound of gongs and drums on the street.
The sky-high price came, and the crowd of people who had been waiting for a long time also burst into fierce applause. The crowd of onlookers was overwhelmed, no one complained, they just reviled. It is said that the law of heaven is clear, who would have thought that today, these people have been reviled by the people of the world for a long time.
The powerful sycophants were punished, but it was already too late for the people of Bianjing who had experienced oppression and exploitation, and suffered the disaster of city destruction and destruction.
However, it was not the Song Dynasty court that announced the public execution of a group of traitors and evildoers who had harmed the country. It was Xiao Tang, the leader who led all the rebel armies to fight for heaven.
It is a means of building momentum that is in line with the people's sentiments, and it is also a way to bring bad breath to the people of the world.
As a group of escorted sycophants and villains were gathered in the forest of swords, they staggered to a stop. However, they heard two broken drums and a broken gong. There was a leader leading a dozen pairs of soldiers standing in front and behind.
He escorted the prisoner to the center of the execution ground and knelt down. However, he saw that the leader was still wearing a red turban with a golden ring and a flower branch on his temple. Cai Qing, who was escorting a flower in the prison bush, looked away and saw what he was doing.
The elder brother, Cai Fu, wore a high-hanging kerchief on his head and a Qingluan belt tightly tied around his waist. He was shirtless and had been waiting for a long time with a ghost-head knife in his hand.
Cai Fu and Cai Qing looked at each other and couldn't help but gulp down a mouthful of foam. Even if Cai Qingjiu was responsible for jailing, Cai Fu was even praised in Daming Mansion for his courage in executing people and interrogating people, which made the souls of ghosts die when they were asked to use shackles.
The county boasts that he is a famous executioner with an iron arm and shows his spirit in killing people everywhere, but what kind of powerful and evil people are these eight people who want him to behead with a knife? They lead the Privy Council, are granted the title of Xu, and are the Tong Guan of the two princes of Henan;
Liang Shicheng, who was promoted to the imperial tutor after being tired of official duties, was known as the hidden prime minister of the imperial court at that time; Cai You, who was granted the title of Duke of Yan, became prime minister and became the favorite of the Supreme Emperor; Li Li, who worshiped Zuocheng as Shangshu, moved to the younger prime minister, and was known as the "Prodigal Prime Minister"
Bang Yan; Wang Fu, who once served as an official among the Three Dukes and reached the position of Yuan Zai; Li Yan, who was in charge of the Houyuan and was the general manager of the palace; even the most inconspicuous Wang Shiyong and Xu Bingzhe were both in Ji
Courtiers in important positions in the Kaifeng Prefecture...
When I thought that I was just working as a prison clerk in the Remaining Department of Daming Prefecture, and kneeling in front of these powerful traitors who were influential in the court, any one of them might be able to crush me to death with just a move of their fingers, Cai Fu, Cai Fu
Qing and Qing still couldn't help but feel uneasy. After all, the two brothers had never shown any prominence in the village since they defected to Xiao Tang and joined the gang. Unless they took the initiative to rebel against the imperial court, it turned out that as government officials, they still instinctively knelt down.
The former dignitaries on earth were a little wary.
But Cai Fu and Cai Qingqiang cheered up and reminded themselves not to show any fear, because Xiao Tang and a group of confidants and leaders were standing on the battlefield, looking directly at them. Cai Qing looked at him from the corner of his eye.
The crowd of onlookers around them all moved away, took another deep breath, and finally said loudly: "Reporting to the Marshal, Mr. Xiangong, all the criminals have been verified and authenticated. Please give the order to interrogate and kill them!"
Among the traitors who were just waiting to be beheaded in public, Tong Guan was restrained by the death row shackles and fell to his knees on the ground, but at this time he still did not give up, he just twisted his body and stared in the direction of the Ouchi Palace, as if
Still hoping that the two officials...especially the Supreme Emperor would change their minds and order the Bianjing Forbidden Army to intervene and prevent Xiao Tang, who had clearly betrayed the imperial court, from being punished to death.
However, when he heard Cai Qinglang's shouting, Tong Guan couldn't help but trembled. He immediately rushed forward again, only to see Xiao Tang glaring towards him with murderous intent in his eyes, and shouted in a deep voice: "The eunuch Tong Guan
He plotted military control, appointed generals in Yi, planted private parties, undermined military and political affairs, and created border rifts. He repeatedly falsely reported military exploits to deceive the emperor, built false cities and fortresses, falsely reported border victories, thought he had achieved success, and even harmed the army.
The general caused countless soldiers to die in vain in the side court! He also committed many capital crimes such as abandoning the defeated alliance, privately taking official property, selling official titles, disorderly ethics, good at confining people, and fleeing without fighting. He is really a heinous crime! Now the time has come
, he will be punished and executed together, and will be spread to all directions to express his gratitude to the world!"
After hearing Xiao Tang's order, the soldiers who were supervising the execution immediately rushed forward to untie Tong Guan's shackles and were about to press Tong Guan to the ground and torture him. At this time, Tong Guan suddenly shouted with a high voice and started hysterically.
He shouted loudly: "Xiao Tang! You are obviously a traitor who betrayed the imperial court! It is not your turn to punish someone for the crime of a traitor. In the capital of the Song Dynasty, under the emperor's feet, how dare you kill someone's family!?"
Tong Guan was still struggling and resisting with his last bit of strength, and Cai Qing, who was watching beside him, also became cruel and used the method he was familiar with in the past to control the death row prisoners. He immediately picked up the water and fire stick in his hand and swept over, and immediately hit him hard.
The blow hit Tong Guan on the back of his knees, causing him to fall to his knees again, landing right in front of his brother Cai Fu!
That's it! Xiao Ren, who has already defected to the Xia Juyi, why should he be afraid of these traitors and sycophants anymore? When he was a prison guard and executioner in Daming Mansion, he was praised as an "iron arm" because of his powerful killing methods.
Who would have thought that he would die under my knife today? It would have been better if he had just rebelled, and he would eventually teach me to accomplish such great things!
After Cai Fu thought in his mind, he raised the sharp ghost-headed machete in his hand with a "swish" sound. In an instant, a fierce light shone out, and then he slashed hard at Tong Guan's neck!
