"You two, come here!"
In an open space to the north of the Xuanjia Army's W-shaped Battalion, there
were more than ten people ** with ropes on the cross stakes. Two sergeants
stood straight in the middle with long spears to guard the prisoners. At this
time, a sergeant walked towards this side. And greeted the two.
Seeing the sergeant's extraordinary momentum, the two couldn't help but glance
at each other, then stepped forward, clasped their fists and said, "What does
this brother have to say?"
The sergeant said calmly: "I am General Qiu's guard. A new batch of ordnance
has arrived in the army today. It has been sent to Camp B. General Qiu asked
you to go and help carry it!"
The two guards hesitated, and one of them spoke tallly: "But Li Jianjun
ordered the two of me to guard the prisoners here and we must not leave! Is
this brother going to find someone else?"
The sergeant frowned, and reprimanded: "Presumptuous! Is this Xuan Jia army
General Qiu or Li Canjun? All the soldiers in the battalions are training now.
Who else can you find if you don't find them? Besides, they are. People are
** with their hands and feet, can they still run away? And it won’t take
long to carry ordnance. After you leave, I will help you guard the criminals.
If you are on a business trip, just look for me. My name is Tian Cheng!"
Seeing that what this person said was rigorous, and that Qiu Xinggong’s power
in the Xuanjia Army is indeed not to be underestimated, the two guards
hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Okay! Our brothers will go to carry
the ordnance, here is it. Brother Laotian!"
Tian Cheng waved his hand and said, "Go with peace of mind!"
The two left now.
At this moment, not far from the side of a camp, a person suddenly walked out,
Tian Cheng hurriedly greeted him, and said, "General!"
The person here is Qiu Xinggong!
"Yeah! You should withdraw first! Zhang Kangnian could have said a few words!"
Qiu Xinggong nodded lightly and ordered softly.
"Here!"
Tian Cheng turned around and left, and went to give Qiu Xinggong a watch!
Zhang Kangnian and others have been tied here since they were arrested last
night. From last night to now, they have not drank a sip of water or eaten a
grain of rice. In addition, the ropes are ** and their blood cannot flow
smoothly in their bodies. Circulation, at this moment, they have almost fallen
into a groggy state!
This is only early in the morning, the sun is not solid, and when the sun is
approaching the top of their heads in the middle of noon, they are afraid that
they will pass out directly because of the heat and lack of water!
In fact, this is almost regarded as a common practice in the military.
Generally, people who are about to be executed will go through such a
encounter before they are sentenced. This is not to abuse the prisoner, but to
help the prisoner!
Yes, you heard it right! This is to help the prisoner!
The prisoners on death row in the Dali Temple or the Department of Penalty’s
cell are served with good wine and good vegetables before they are sentenced.
Good food is not important, but good wine is important. After the prisoners
drank alcohol, they were decapitated under the paralysis of alcohol. , The
pain of the prisoner will be much reduced, and the prisoner will naturally
have a lot of grievances after death (Of course, these are feudal
superstitions, but who would convince the ancients to believe this. The death
row prisoners in ancient times are generally executed at three o'clock in the
afternoon. , Also because three quarters noon is the heaviest yang energy of
the day)!
The prisons of the government can drink alcohol to death row prisoners, but
the Tang Dynasty, especially in the early Tang Dynasty, ruled the army
strictly. Drinking was prohibited in the army, and offenders were killed
without pardon. Therefore, for the sergeant sentenced to death in the army,
there was definitely no alcohol. They drank it, so what should I do? It's
roughly like Zhang Kangnian is now. They are left to dry, basked, no food, no
water to drink, so that they will enter a groggy state before cutting their
heads, and when they are cutting their heads, they will not be so painful. !
"Look up!"
At this time, Qiu Xinggong walked to Zhang Kangnian and shouted in a low
voice.
Because there is still a distance between the prisoner and the prisoner, plus
the fact that Zhang Kangnian and Bai Shanhai and others are half-asleep and
half-awake, plus the fact that Zhang Kangnian and Bai Shanhai and others are
half-asleep, Qiu Xinggong deliberately lowered his voice. I don't want the
conversation between him and Zhang Kangnian to be heard by other criminals!
Hearing Qiu Xinggong's voice, Zhang Kangnian, who was dizzy and drowsy,
suddenly shook his body. He quickly raised his head, opened his eyes, and
looked at Qiu Xinggong and said: "The general save me! The general save me!
The subordinates don't want to die... !"
But this guy's voice was a little loud, and Qiu Xinggong quickly covered his
mouth.
"Keep it down!"
Qiu Xinggong glanced around and saw that the other prisoners were still
holding their heads motionless. He then removed his hands from Zhang
Kangnian's mouth. He whispered, "I should have done anything to you, Li
Zexuan? Severe torture to extract a confession?"
Zhang Kangnian lowered his voice and replied: "Back to the general, Li Canjun
did not wait for me to torture a confession. We have been tied here since we
were arrested last night. Neither Li Canjun nor the general came here!"
Hearing this, Qiu Xinggong felt a little peaceful, and he could say: "What
happened last night? Didn't you say that your plan was foolproof? How could
you be caught by Li Zexuan and General Duan?"
"This subordinate does not know! Last night Ding Dali and others were about to
be persuaded by subordinates to succeed, but Li Canjun and the general
suddenly walked out of the pyre outside the room. They seemed to be hiding
before their subordinates arrived. Inside the pyre, so the words that the
subordinates said to Ding Dali and the others naturally fell into the
general's ears!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Kangnian hasn't really figured it out until now. In
his tone, it is inevitable that there is a little doubt.
"Idiot! So, Li Zexuan and General Duan are likely to know your plan of action
in advance, so they will ambush in the house in advance!"
After listening to Zhang Kangnian's words, Qiu Xinggong couldn't help but
yelled at him. At the end, he hurriedly followed up and said, "Then what you
shouldn't say in your conversation with Ding Dali last night?"
What shouldn't be said, naturally refers to exposing his identity!
Zhang Kangnian hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the general,
your subordinates have never revealed any news about you, because they know
that the general will save me!"
Hearing this, Qiu Xinggong was completely relieved. He straightened his body,
stood with his hand held, and said indifferently: "Kang Nian, the general's
will has been decided, and he has entered the palace to explain the crime you
committed. , This time I am afraid I can’t save you! But don’t worry, the wife
and children in your family, the old man will take care of them for you, so
that they will have nothing to worry about for the rest of their lives!"
Although he was prepared, Zhang Kangnian couldn't help feeling desperate when
he heard Qiu Xinggong say this at this moment. After a while, he sorted out
his emotions and said to Qiu Xing respectfully: "Thank you, General! You are!"
"Yeah! Go with peace of mind!"
Qiu Xinggong patted Zhang Kangnian on the shoulder, then turned around and
walked away.
…………………………………………
When Duan Zhixuan arrived at the palace, he was told by the ** that Li Er
was still in the early court, so he was taken into the side hall to wait.
What happened in the Xuanjia Army camp last night is ultimately a "family
affair" belonging to the Xuanjia Army. As the saying goes, family ugliness
cannot be publicized. Duan Zhixuan doesn't want to talk about what happened
last night in front of the civil and military officials!
After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, an attendant walked in and
said to Duan Zhixuan: "General Duan, the dynasty is over long ago, and your
majesty is calling you to see you in the Ganlu Hall!"
"Okay! Father-in-law!"
Duan Zhixuan said politely.
"General Duan is polite, please come with us!"
The waiter bowed and made a please gesture, then turned and led the way. After
a while, Duan Zhixuan came to Ganlu Temple.
"Old minister, see your majesty!"
Duan Zhixuan bowed to Li Er and saluted.
"Free gift!"
Li Er waved his hand, and then took a sip of tea. After all, he had just
arrived in the early morning, and there was no time to drink the water. After
the tea was poured into his stomach, Li Er curiously said: "Duan Aiqing is in
such a hurry to see me today. Why?"
Seeing that apart from Li Er, there is only Zhao Song in the temple, and Duan
Zhixuan no longer hides it, saying bluntly: "Return to your Majesty, in the
Xuanjia army last night, Zhang Kangnian, a lieutenant of the C-character
battalion, led someone to instigate the soldiers' mutiny. Fortunately, the
veteran Discover it in time, and it won't cause a catastrophe!"
"What? Someone incited the soldiers to mutiny?"
Hearing this, old Li was not calm. You must know that the Xuanjia Army was his
"ace" army. Back then, the Xuanjia Army followed him in the North and South
wars and made great contributions. It can be said that Li Yuan was able to
sweep the world back then. The Xuanjia army under Li's second hand definitely
played a vital role! Therefore, a few months ago, Li Er spent huge sums of
money (although most of the money came from Li Zexuan) to expand the Xuanjia
Army, precisely because he had great expectations for the Xuanjia Army. Now
that he heard from Duan Zhixuan that someone in the Xuan Jia Army wanted to
make a mutiny, how could he bear it?
"Where is this Kang Nian now? Does he have other accomplices?"
Li Er’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. If Zhang Kangnian instigated
the successful mutiny of the soldiers, then the Xuanjia Army would become a
joke for the people of the world, and all his previous efforts to expand the
Xuanjia Army would be in vain because of the expansion of the Xuanjia Army.
The purpose of the Xuanjia Army is to conquer the Turks, and once a mutiny
occurs in the Xuanjia Army, it will greatly affect the training progress. How
will a newly expanded and undertrained Xuanjia Army go to the court two months
later? Conquering the "vanguard" in the Turkic?
Therefore, at this moment, Li Er really wanted to take the culprit who
instigated the mutiny of the soldiers alive!
"His Majesty, Zhang Kangnian conspired to make a mutiny last night. The old
minister and Li Canjun arrested him. Now Zhang Kangnian and his party eleven
people have been taken down by the old officials, and the old officials have
ordered them to be in Xuanjia at three noon today. Slash at the gate!"
Duan Zhixuan bowed and said.
"Okay! It's time to kill! Duan Aiqing cut it well!"
Hearing that, Li Erpai came up and said loudly: "The national war is about to
come, but these people are so ignorant and want to cause chaos within the
Xuanjia Army. They really deserve to die! It's just this Kang Nian why he
instigated the soldiers to mutiny for no reason? Is there someone else
instigating behind this? Duan Aiqing, can you find out why?"
With that, Li Er suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he chased it.
There is no love for no reason, no hate for no reason, Zhang Kangnian suddenly
jumped out, there must be a reason, this is the intuition of an emperor, and
it is also the intuition of a person who has come from a court coup!
"Returning to your Majesty, Zhang Kangnian insisted that this matter was all
planned by him alone, and there was no other instigation behind him! As for
why he instigated military mutiny, the veteran believed that he should be
directed at Li Junjun's new training code. Coming!"
Duan Zhixuan thought for a while and replied.
"Oh? Is this still related to Li Zexuan?"
Hearing this, Li Er was immediately puzzled. After all, he had not received
any relevant information about this matter before, so he said to Duan Zhixuan:
"Duan Aiqing, please tell me the causes and consequences of this matter in
detail!"
"Old officials follow the order!"
Duan Zhixuan hesitated and began to preach: "Last night when he was
approaching his son, the old minister had already fallen asleep, but Li Canjun
suddenly asked for a meeting outside the old man's account, saying that there
was something very important..."
In fact, Duan Zhixuan entered the palace this time. He just wanted to tell Li
Er briefly about what happened to the Xuanjia Army last night and request Li
Er to let Li Zexuan formally serve as a lieutenant of the C-word camp. For the
rest of the details, Duan Zhixuan did not intend to talk to Li Erxi Said,
because according to the conversation between Zhang Kangnian and Ding Dali and
others last night, Li Erhui can easily associate this matter with Qiu
Xinggong. He is not going to protect Qiu Xinggong to death, but that the
Xuanjia Army now has no lieutenant. , If something happens to Qiu Xinggong
again, then the Xuan Jia army will be completely messed up!
After all, Qiu Xinggong has also been in the Xuanjia Army for many years, and
there are not a few generals in the Xuanjia Army who support him. It is very
inappropriate to move Qiu Xinggong at this time!
But now that Li Er clearly told him and asked him to tell the details of last
night's events, he had to tell all the events of last night one to one!
In the entire Tang Dynasty, Duan Zhixuan is definitely one of the people who
are absolutely loyal to Li Er, otherwise Li Er would not let him be in charge
of the Xuan Jia army for so many years! Therefore, Duan Zhixuan absolutely
obeyed Li Er's order, and he would not conceal it!
"...Zhang Kangnian Fu Zhu, the C-character battalion must not have no
commander, so the old minister made his own suggestion, letting Li Canjun
temporarily replace the C-character battalion lieutenant~www.mtlnovel.com~
When your majesty has a more suitable candidate, Li Canjun Then he retired
from the post of captain!"
After more than a quarter of an hour, Duan Zhixuan recounted what he saw with
his own eyes, heard with his ears, and what he heard from Li Zexuan last
night.
After hearing this, Li Er wrung his brows and was silent, because from Duan
Zhixuan's narrative, there was still one person hiding among them, that was
Qiu Xinggong! And when Zhang Kangnian bewitched Ding to make a great mutiny,
he mentioned many times that once the incident happened, Qiu Xinggong would
intercede for them! From this point of view, this matter must have nothing to
do with Qiu Xinggong!
After a while, Li Er said: "Duan Aiqing, you have done a good job in this
matter! Li Shenjun has both ability and political integrity. After joining the
Xuanjia Army only a few days later, he trained the lieutenant of the battalion
in an orderly manner and asked him to serve as the C-type battalion. The
school lieutenant, it is very appropriate. Later, I will let someone make a
decree and formally appoint him as the C-character battalion school
lieutenant!"
Duan Zhixuan arched his hands and said: "The old official thanked your Majesty
for Li's participation in the army!"
"Ok!"
Li Er nodded, and after a moment of indulgence, his eyes flashed and he
faintly said: "After you return to the camp, telling my will, Zhang Kangnian
and others plot a mutiny. The crime is not to be blamed, but the Xuanjia army
general Qiu Xinggong did not control it strictly. , There is a crime of
oversight, let him get thirty sticks of his own as a punishment!"
Even if there is no evidence of Qiu Xinggong's involvement, so what? Does he
need evidence if Li Er wants to punish? Thirty army sticks, the right should
be his warning to Qiu Xinggong!
"This... the old minister abides by the order!"
Duan Zhixuan was taken aback when he heard the words, and after reacting, he
quickly bowed his hands.
"Well, you can withdraw!"
Li Er waved his hand and said.
"The old minister retire!"
