Chapter 4 Behead everyone
Chapter 4: Killing the whole family
The north wind howled by, making me confused and lost my mind.
In the middle of Yin Shizhong, the Anguo Houfu was heavily surrounded by the Imperial Guards. Their sharp weapons shone with a biting cold light, and the walls and roofs were filled with archers with their bows drawn.
The half-hundred-year-old An Guohou was bundled up in bed with disheveled clothes, but he held up the death-free gold medal and shouted at the intruding imperial guards in an arrogant manner.
"You are so bold and reckless. I am the late emperor who personally granted you the title of Marquis. I beat you unconscious and killed traitorous ministers. Who dares to touch me!!"
Under the blazing torch, the Grand Chamberlain, Mr. De, with a white face and slightly bulging temples, held up the imperial edict held by the little **** beside him and unfolded it.
“The late emperor issued an edict: Duke Xihongliang, the Marquis of Fan’an State, and his family want to plot a rebellion, so they must take back the gold medal for immunity from death.”
“The emperor issued an edict: Duke Xi Hongliang, the lord of Anguo, and his family are plotting to rebel, and the nine clans will be executed. They will be immediately thrown into a prison to await trial.”
As soon as the two imperial edicts were announced, the imperial guards pounced on the Gongxi clan like wolves and tigers, without giving them a chance to react. Those who disobeyed were killed on the spot.
Everyone in the Anguo Houfu who was sleeping was captured and no one was spared.
They found boxes full of property and bundles of weapons, occupying half the street in front of the Houfu Gate.
Eunuch De straightened his back and looked at An Guohou like a bereaved dog with a proud look on his face.
He has been working hard for decades and witnessed the destruction of the Gongxi family with his own eyes, and he has been able to comfort his parents, wife and children under the spring.
In this life, if you can meet a benefactor, you will definitely serve him faithfully until death.
…
Tianlao.
Emperor Tianqing, who was in his early thirties, was wearing casual clothes. After seeing Gong Xihongliang after being tortured, he refused to admit the whereabouts of the property worth tens of millions in the secret account book, and said angrily.
“Bring all the men of the Gongxi family to trial one by one, no matter how big or small!
I don’t know how to continue interrogating women, but I want to see how tough his mouth is! "
How could the proud and proud Emperor Tianqing miss the opportunity to torture his confidants? All the concubines forced into the palace by the Gongxi family were eliminated as soon as they left the palace.
Princesses and princes who bleed the blood of the Gongxi family will not be given a chance to survive.
Cut the grass without removing the root, and it will grow again when the spring breeze blows.
Gong Xi Hongliang had no idea where the gold and silver stolen from his house had gone. He saw his two-year-old great-grandson died under execution, knowing that his family would inevitably die, so he said with a grim smile.
“My dear Tianqing! If you become a king or a bandit, I will be waiting for you in hell!”
“Execution!” The furious Emperor Tianqing waved his hand and tried all the torture methods in prison, but failed to get the result he wanted.
The extremely frustrated Emperor Tianqing failed to achieve anything, and finally ordered the nine Gongxi clans to be pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded immediately.
The missing gold and silver have become an eternal mystery and attracted people from all walks of life to follow them.
The return of imperial power is bound to lead to power disputes. The strange disputes in the court have nothing to do with Ziyu who left the city. She will no longer dedicate herself to anyone in this life.
Live only for yourself!
…
At noon, there is an unknown hill thirty miles outside of Yundu.
"Xiao Luo, my parents can only be buried here. When you grow up, you can move here. You must remember the location." Zi Yu said to Zi Luo who was crying and burping.
“Sister, I miss my parents so much. I wonder if I will never see them again.”
“My parents live in your heart and you can see them at any time. It’s time for us to leave.”
Ziyu took off her outer clothes a few times, revealing a black outfit underneath, covered with a heather gray rabbit fur coat with even fur.
The waist-length black silk was cut off with scissors, leaving only two palms of hair left, tied into a high bun and fixed with a silver crown.
Wearing a knight's hat and half-tube square-toed deerskin thick-soled boots, the exquisite workmanship far exceeds Ziyu's knowledge of this era. “Xiao Luo, let’s go!”
“Sister, I want to change my clothes too!”
Rabbit-eyed Zi Luo pursed her lips, and her little hands held up the skirt that reached the top of her shoes uncomfortably. She was wearing a pink brocade skirt with a pure white rabbit fur coat, and a pair of small pink embroidered shoes on her feet.
Looking up, the pearl flowers on the corner glowed in the sunlight, and the pink ribbon danced lightly in the wind.
“Remember, I am the brother and you are the sister.
If you make a mistake once, you will be hungry. If you get hungry a few times, you will remember it.
From now on, our surname is Zi. We are not allowed to say the wrong thing. Remember the three no’s my brother said. "Ziyu said seriously.
From this moment on, she is not going to use the identity of the Mei family. The two of them need a new identity document to make it easier to travel around.
No matter how much curiosity the ignorant Zi Luo had, he could not withstand the threat of hunger. He only knew that he would always be with his sister.
“Brother! Where are we going?”
“Be good, my brother will show you the local customs and customs first.
Find a place with an open door to the sea and a mountain at the back, and build the safest fortress so that Xiao Luo can grow up freely. "
Ziyu dug a small hole next to the new grave, buried the clothes the two of them had changed into, and built a small grave bag, which was regarded as Xiao Ziyu's tomb.
She had dismantled the broken carriage and made it into a simple coffin, leaving only the iron **** in her hand. When Ziyu put the basket on her back and left again, the iron **** disappeared in her hand.
Instead, a soft brown whip was wrapped around his wrist. Zi Luo opened a crack in the backpack and looked at the hills that were gradually receding.
At a young age, he didn’t know what parting meant. He only remembered what his brother said about his parents living in his heart.
Ziyu, who doesn’t know where her ancestral home is, has no intention of looking for the roots of the Mei family, nor does she want to live dependent on others.
Going back to the official road, I saw that the pedestrians on the road looked terrified and were walking in a hurry by the side of the road.
"Da da da…"
The rapid sound of horse hooves came from far and near, and a group of cavalry in black clothes and red cloaks swept by like the wind, blowing up bursts of smoke and dust.
The people who stopped on the roadside bowed their heads to give way and were afraid to breathe heavily for fear of attracting the attention of the cavalry.
Ziyu's eyes, Yu Guang, saw the strong high -headed steed, and envious, and regretted how to forget how to forget the horses of the national government.
The bike she bought was too luxurious, and she didn’t dare to show it off in this cloud city, so she could only walk to the next town and make plans.
Walking and stopping along the way, there were so many cavalry whizzing by that it was mind-numbing.
Seeing this battle, Ziyu knew that what she left behind played a decisive role. She was helping the emperor get rid of a big disaster!
I wonder if there will be a list of rewards?
Thinking of this, Ziyu couldn't help but find it funny, how could she change her body and even her thoughts become childish.
This is a way of letting yourself go!
Ziyu, who has experienced too much, has naturally accepted this identity. Now she can be said to be rich and does not have to run around for life.
2.5 million taels of silver and 1 million taels of gold, not counting the value of other things. I believe that the emperor, who is above the throne, would not have so much in stock.
All that's left is to enjoy life in this different time and space, and maybe one day settle down somewhere and establish your own power.
Ziyu knows very well that fairness, no matter which dynasty or generation, is based on absolute power.
There is no telling when she will carry out Uncle Mao's "power out of the barrel of a gun" to the end in this different time and space.
It would be better to be a lonely eagle than an ant that can be pinched by others.
