The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 250 The Bright Gun and the Hidden Arrow 4

"Wang!"

A large basin of water poured over and rushed into the face of Mr. Wang, who was lying on the ground like a waterfall, splashing countless splashes, which made Mr. Wang's whole body cool.

"Ouch!"

General Manager Wang, who was stunned, was stimulated by the sudden flow of water. He suddenly woke up and jumped up excitedly. Just as he was about to curse, he suddenly saw a pair of cold eyes staring at himself. Suddenly, he was so scared that he shivered and fell to the ground with soft legs and feet.

"Den, Your Highness, slave, maidservant, maidservant..."

General Manager Wang quickly glanced at the surrounding environment, and then found that he was in the back garden of the royal palace. He not only became a prisoner, but also the people he secretly arranged to enter the British royal palace were all taken down. He knelt not far from him. How could he not know that the matter had been completely revealed, and his heart immediately sank. At the bottom of the valley, I had to ask for mercy, but I didn't know how to express it. I stammered and couldn't say a complete word.

"Wang Meng, do you know the crime?"

Looking at Wang Meng, who was trembling, Li Xian's heart burned, and his eyes became colder and colder, but he did not attack immediately, but shouted coldly.

"Your Highness is angry, Your Highness is angry..."

Now that Wang Meng knows it, it is inevitable, but there is still a trace of fluke in his heart. He just kowtows, but he refuses to accept his guilt.

"That said, why did you betray the orphan?"

Li Xian ignored Wang Meng's kowtowed and asked indifferently.

"I didn't, no, no, I..."

Although Li Xian's tone was light, it was as loud as thunder in Wang Meng's ears. At that moment, he was shocked and shouted wildly, and even forgot to call himself the word "servant".

"Kneel down!"

Seeing that Wang Meng wanted to jump up, Lin Hu, who had been angry for a long time, couldn't help rushing forward, kicked Wang Meng fiercely, and kicked him to eat shit.

"Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, spare your life, my maidservant, the maidservant is forced, I dare not come from the outside..." At this time when his life was at stake, Wang Meng, regardless of the pain, rushed to turn over and got up, shouting and calling for injustice.

"What a forced man. I don't need your confession. You can't say that you can't escape death today. I will give you a chance to tell the story in detail. I can reward you with a whole body. Otherwise, I will kill you alone, and your family will not escape death. After all, why do you betray me?" Li Xian smiled coldly and mercilessly sentenced Wang Meng to death.

"Your Highness forgives me, Your Highness forgives me. I am really forced to gamble. I blame the maidservant for gambling. On the occasion of the Spring Festival the year before last, I lost a large amount of money outside and had nowhere to raise it. It was the debt paid by the little Chen eunuch in the palace for the maidservant, but I never thought that the servant turned around and took the debts of the slave maidservant into a daily price, and the maidservant could not do it. Ah..." When Wang Meng heard that his own death was inevitable, his face was disgraced in an instant. The corners of his mouth trembled and he struggled for a long time in his heart. After all, he was reluctant to let his family suffer together. Finally, he opened his mouth tremblingly and came out the betrayal of Li Xian one by one. Of course, he did not forget to keep shout injustice. .

"Today's news has been sent out?"

Li Xian knew the result as soon as he heard the beginning. He was too lazy to listen to Wang Meng's nonsense. Without waiting for him to finish his words, Li Xian had cut off and asked.

"Ah, yes, yes, my maidservant deserves to die, my maidservant deserves to die!"

Wang Meng's fat body suddenly shook. Even if he collapsed, he answered murmur, and the strength of his whole body seemed to have been pulled out.

"Bear them all down, it's boring!"

Everything that should be known has been known. Li Xian was too lazy to talk more. He waved his hand and issued the execution order coldly.

"Ah, Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness..."

Sultry is one of the tortures, second only to Ling Chi and Lumeng, ranking third. It is to brush the prisoner's face layer by layer with wet paper, which makes him slowly suffocate to death. It is much more cruel than being buried alive. When a group of people detained on the spot heard the crime, they all shouted and struggled desperately. If he wanted to escape from death, there was a group of royal palace guards who could not tolerate the disturbance. Two or three of them dragged more than a dozen people involved in the case to the side, rudely tied them on a bench, and executed the punishment of death in public.

"Your Highness, my subordinates are kinship-oriented in the front, neglecting prevention, and almost missed your Highness's major event. My subordinates know that they can't escape the crime of death. They dare not ask Your Highness's forgiveness. They just ask Your Highness to forgive the lives of their families for the sake of their small labor." Listening to the howl of a group of people, Lin Hu couldn't stand it anymore. He knelt down in front of Li Xian, kowtowed, and beg for his guilt.

"Since you know that you are guilty, you should be punished if you are guilty. In this way, it is time for your children to be taken care of. Your wife doesn't have to be busy in the house, and Gu Gu's family is also good. As for you, the southern Yangzhou has just been set up, and the rules are chaotic. You can take care of it now." Li Xian is a nostalgic person. He is not willing to punish Lin Hu, the loyal guard who has followed him for the longest time. However, considering the importance of discipline, Li Xian also had to shed tears. Of course, the punishment is only one hand. The key point is to examine Lin Hu again, which is also a lot of repeated thoughts. After that, Li Xian just made up his mind. Seeing that Lin Hu pleaded guilty, Li Xian meditated and gave a penalty opinion.

"Yes, my subordinates are obeded."

Lin Hu was a soldier after all. Hearing that Li Xian had been sentenced, he did not hesitate at all, and no longer tried to defend or plead. He simply answered the promise, stood up straight and retreated.

"Hmm." Li Xian appreciated Lin Hu's straightforwardness, but he did not change the punishment he had made. He just nod his head and said softly, and his eyes fell on the core high-level officials of the royal palace. After scanning back and forth, he said, "Zhuang Yong."

"My subordinates are!"

Zhuang Yong is Lin Hu's deputy. At the beginning, he was a low-level civil official in the royal palace. Later, he was sent by Li Xian to help Lin Hu prepare for the establishment of a secret force. After getting along with him for many years, he cooperated tacitly with Lin Hu, and he was also incomparable. Before that he saw that Lin Hu had been heavily punished for his death, he was very sad. Suddenly, he heard Li Xian's name. The ground was stunned, but he soon came to his senses, hurried out of the crowd, bowed down, and answered loudly.

"The shortage left by Lin Hu is managed by you first, and everything should be done according to the old rules. Is it possible?" After Li Xian stared calmly at Zhuang Yong for a long time, he slowly opened his mouth.

"Yes, I will do it to the death!"

Zhuang Yong actually had a premonition that the candidate for the subject would fall on his own head, but he really heard Li Xian announce it in public. He couldn't help but feel fluctuated, but he didn't dare to bring it to his face and quickly bow down and answered.

"Hmm." Li Xian didn't say anything more. He just waved his hand and motioned to Zhuang Yong to enter the list. Then he looked around at the crowd and said calmly, "I said that I would not lose you, but if someone wants to lose me, don't blame me for being alone. It's good to remember Wang Meng's end. If anyone dares to commit again, he will destroy his nine clans!"

"My subordinates are willing to be loyal to death, and I will never dare to be unkind to your Highness."

With the living example of Wang Meng, a group of core executives were shocked and bowed their loyalty.

"Luo Tong stayed, and the rest of the people dispersed."

Loyalty or not is not based on words. Li Xian knows this truth in his heart, but with Wang Meng's chicken, everyone will always think more before doing it, and this is enough. Li Xianshi is too lazy to talk more, so he waved back to the crowd.

"Your Highness, everything has been arranged to stop, just waiting for the fish to take the bait."

After everyone went, without waiting for Li Xian to ask questions, Luo Tong had already smiled gloomyly and reported.

"Well, that's good. I'm idle, so I'll go with you to have a look at the strangeness."

Li Xian did not intend to go out in person, but when he made a decision, he was a little confused, so he changed his mind.

"Ah, Your Highness, this..."

There may be a life-and-death fight tonight. Even if the relevant plans have been arranged to stop, Luo Tong still dares not guarantee that he can't make trouble. When he heard that Li Xian planned to go out in person, he was immediately dumbfounded. When he wanted to speak out and persuaded him, he saw that Li Xian had turned around and left. He had no choice but to shake his maid with a wry smile and quickly flashed. , caught up with Li Xian's footsteps...

When it's ugly, the night is already very deep. The huge Luoyang City has already sunk into a dreamland. Under the silence, only some unknown insects are still singing tirelessly. It not only does not seem noisy, but also has a kind of sleep-promoting mood, which makes the guards of the imperial prison inevitably be sleepy and energetic. Since it is extremely poor, only the C-shaped cell is an exception. Therefore, the guards are not the incompetent jailers, but the iron-blooded warriors of the British palace. Even in the dead of night, there is no one of the guards of the palace who are not relaxed at all. The bright whistle, the dark whistle and the patrol guard perform their respective duties and firmly look at the C-shaped cell. It is difficult for anyone to avoid so many guards approaching the cell.

At the ugly moment, the silent night was still silent, and it seemed that it would always be silent until dawn, but the sky was always unswishable. I don't know when a fire light came out of the T-shaped cell, and soon the small fire burned into a big fire. The smoke was lingering, the cry of the prisoners, the roar of the prisoners, and the big fire. The crackling sounds of the bear were all intertwined. The prisons and even the people nearby who heard the news were crowded into a ball. A basin of water poured into the flames in vain, trying to suppress the fire, but the effect was obviously better than nothing. The huge edict prison was all messed up...
