"You, you, you." Pointing at Xiao Chen, Dingxi Houqi's face turned purple and he was speechless for a moment.
"Some things, if I think you did it, you did it. Even if you didn't do it, you will be treated as if you did it. The difference between me and General Zhang is that he is about convincing people with reason, while I,
I will never reason with anyone."
Looking at Marquis Dingxi, Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said to the captain of the Dongchang School who was guarding the cell: "From now on, Marquis Dingxi is an important prisoner of the imperial court. Put the shackles on him."
"Yes." The captain responded and hung the heavy shackles that had been prepared on Dingxihou's neck.
Immediately, the two heavy iron bracelets at both ends of the shackles were fastened on Ding Xihou's wrists with a "click" sound.
"You, you." Ding Xihou raised his hands and looked at the shackles on his hands, "This, this."
"Don't bother me anymore. You have done this and that. You are no longer the Marquis of Dingxi. You are just a prisoner of the imperial court. Put away all your previous arrogance and cooperate with the captain guarding the prison, and you will suffer less.
A little sin."
"I, the marquis, was personally granted the title by Taizu. Even if the emperor wants to take away my title, he must think twice before doing so. Why do you take away my title? If I don't take away my title, I will still be the Marquis of Dingxi. You have no power.
Put shackles on me."
Xiao Chen sneered and looked at the captain next to him: "Hang him up."
All the cells in Gongchang Mansion are separated by fences.
The top of each fence is connected by a thick crossbar.
After hearing Xiao Chen's order, the captain took off the rope hanging on his shoulder and threw it across the crossbar. He tied the rope end to the shackles on Dingxihou's body, moved his hands back and forth a few times, and instantly tied Dingxihou
Then the whole person was pulled off the ground and hung in the air.
"You, you, you are so bold." Ding Xihou was very angry and roared loudly.
For many years, I have always lived my life as a superior to others. Wherever I go, I am held up high and treated with the utmost respect.
Today, being put in prisoner's shackles is already extremely humiliating.
Now that he was even more hung up, his old face suddenly had no place to rest. He ignored Mr. Zhang who was right next to him and started displaying his family history again.
"I'm already an old man. You've tortured me to death like this. I'll see how you explain it to the court." Ding Xihou roared fiercely.
"Explain? Do you still want to live to see the emperor? You are also a person who has experienced great storms. You are also a person who created a huge conspiracy. How can your thoughts be so childish?" Xiao Chen laughed.
Ding Xihou's heart trembled, and the fear in his eyes could no longer be concealed: "Even if I made a huge mistake, it should be decided by the court. If you target me like this, why do I have any deep grudge against you?"
"The hatred between you and me is irreconcilable." Xiao Chen's face instantly became extremely cold.
"Who are you? Who are you?" Staring at Xiao Chen, Ding Xihou turned to look at Mr. Zhang, "You are the purple-clad captain of the imperial court, how come you are with General Zhang, you, you."
Before Ding Xihou finished speaking, Mr. Zhang burst into laughter.
"The sky has eyes. You designed to frame Duke Liang and was brutally murdered. You didn't expect that one day you would fall into the hands of Duke Liang's son, right? This is what good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. This is the cycle of reincarnation in the world."
"What?" Ding Xihou's eyes widened and he couldn't breathe for a long time.
Today, he couldn't even imagine this series of changes.
Mr. Zhang was not dead, which was expected by him. Because of his extraordinary skills, if he wanted to hide him, it would be really difficult for the court to find him.
The youngest son of Liang Guogong Lan Yu was taken away by him, which is also an important reason why the court has not given up on tracing him for so many years.
When cutting weeds, be sure to remove the roots.
Although there has been no news about Lan Yu's son for so many years, Dingxi Hou always believed that even if Lan Yu's youngest son was still alive, he was definitely hidden among the people.
But now, the only purple-clad captain in the Ming Dynasty is actually Lan Yu's son.
What do they want to do? Could it be that they intend to enter the East Factory and have a bigger plot?
"You are actually the son of Duke Liang? You entered Dongchang, won the only purple garment in the Ming Dynasty, and gained power. Is it possible that you still want to overthrow the court and avenge your father?" Ding Xihou said fiercely.
"It has nothing to do with you what I want to do, and it has nothing to do with you whether I am in power or not. You just need to know that I will torture you little by little until you die. Your fake jade seal and fake imperial edict are
It is a powerful tool for you to win the title of Daoding Xihou. You must still treasure it. You don’t need to tell me, I will find it myself."
Ding Xihou slowly closed his eyes and said no more words.
Since the other party is Lan Yu's son, it is meaningless to say anything.
Only you will bear the consequences of what you sow.
It was just dawn, and the five hundred captains of Dongchang had already assembled.
Five hundred war horses gathered the whole camp and blocked it tightly.
Du Shaoqin, the prison warden, was sitting on the back of a military horse, standing at the front of the team with bright eyes.
On the street not far away, three military horses came slowly.
Xiao Chen is in the middle, with Mr. Zhang and Wang Zhongzhen on both sides.
Du Shaoqin hurriedly greeted him: "The team has been assembled, shall we set off to Dingxi now?"
"Yes." Xiao Chen nodded, "Move slowly, I have asked Captain Duan to lead his men to disguise themselves and sneak into the people. There must be some people from Dingxi Marquis in Gong Changwei who have not yet shown their faces. Lead them out.
"
"Yes." Du Shaoqin responded, waving his right hand forward, "Go forward."
Ever since Gong Changwei was brought under control, every time a team appeared on the street, it would attract a lot of attention.
This team of five hundred people did not seem to be in a hurry, walking slowly towards the city gate along the largest street in Gongchang City.
Duan Tianming, dressed in cloth and carrying a rusty hoe on his shoulder, stood beside the city gate, looking stupidly at the slowly approaching team.
Opposite him, several young "common people" had several pairs of sandals in front of them, shouting and selling them loudly.
Yesterday, when we were counting the current personnel of Gong Changwei, more than 20 people were missing.
The entire Gongchang City has been controlled by the Longyou Road Branch. These twenty people should be hiding in the city.
If they were really the Dingxi Marquis hiding in Gong Changwei, and they saw that they were going to Dingxi to raid their homes, they would definitely try their best to spread the news.
Catching them is Duan Tianming's only mission today.
When he reached the city gate, Xiao Chen nodded towards Duan Tianming and shouted: "Target, Dingxi Houfu, move forward."
With that said, he crossed his legs and rushed out of the city gate.
It took a full quarter of an hour for the team of five hundred people to pass through the city gate.
The dust in the sky filled the entire doorway, and even though they were three feet apart, they could no longer see each other.
Duan Tianming already held the hoe tightly in his hand, squinting his eyes slightly and staring at the dust in front of him that made him unable to open his eyes.
The several Dongchang captains opposite him even covered their noses and mouths with their straw sandals on the ground. Like Duan Tianming, they watched vigilantly at the dust in front of them that made it impossible to open their eyes.
Thirty feet away from the city gate, three figures stared at the dust in the sky, huddled together tightly.
"Did you hear that the Dongchang Colonel just said before setting off that he was going to Dingxi Houfu to raid his house?"
"I heard."
"If they dare to search the house, something may have happened to Mr. Hou."
"What should we do? Should we find a way to leave the city to report the news?"
"It's too late to think of a way. This group of people are all captains of the East Factory. Their foot power is extraordinary and comparable to that of the army. The three of us took advantage of the dust in the sky and rushed out of the city gate. Whoever succeeds will report back to Dingxi immediately."
"Okay." The three of them nodded unanimously.
Stretch out your right hands respectively, palms down, and press them together.
"If you don't succeed, you will succeed."
As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them suddenly accelerated, plunged into the dust, and rushed towards the city gate.
Seeing a hazy figure suddenly appear in front of him, Duan Tianming didn't care who the person was and swung the hoe in his hand towards him.
"Ah." The figure screamed and fell at Duan Tianming's feet.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang," there were four more sounds, and the hoe immediately dug off the opponent's limbs.
Immediately afterwards, two screams came from the opposite side, and at the same time, a "crackling" sound of hitting also reached Duan Tianming's ears.
