Brother Song Taizu

Chapter 120 Cruel people and more ruthless people

As the saying goes, once there are more than 1 people, there are no borders. Even on the battlefield, [-] people gathered together is enough to be spectacular. At this time, a full [-] scholars wearing Confucian robes and silk scarves gathered together. Together, they rushed straight to the palace. The scene made the people of Kaifeng, who claimed to have seen strong winds and waves, a bit dumbfounded.

I have to say that Huainan, which has been under the rule of the Southern Tang Dynasty for so many years, is indeed a bit spoiled. The people of Kaifeng, who were ravaged by the fourteenth emperors of the Five Dynasties, seriously refreshed their three views:
I have only seen armies gathering to kill people, but this is the first time in my life that I have seen scholars gathering to quarrel.

Moreover, he also hoped to use his words to scold His Highness King Qin, one of the crown princes.

Hey, it’s so fresh.

Kaifeng, it was really well trained by the five generations of military households. In fact, there were only two types of people in Kaifeng a few decades ago, soldiers, river workers, and their families. In recent years, there have been many citizens. , also evolved from these two types of people.

The level of scholars who can survive in this environment may be very high, but there are definitely not that many of them, and they all look fresh.

Then these more than 1 scholars knelt down outside the palace gate, holding placards and excerpts one by one, and loudly told Zhao Guangmei's perverse deeds in Huainan. Who the hell is not stupid!
Anyway, Zhao Kuangyin feels numb now.

"Officials, this is a joint report from the eight governors of Huainan and a total of 43 county magistrates. They impeach His Highness the King of Qin... for the crime of treason."

"Let me see, this group of people said... Haha, they support rebels, win over the army, act lawless, cruelly harm the people, seize people's fields, dig graves, ignore etiquette and law, and wield power arbitrarily. This is my brother. ?snort!"

"This... official family, I heard that the queen seems to have made people meet the leader of those who are making trouble, and she even said something... said..."

"say what?"

"It is said that the Tian family is selfless. Even if he is a brother from an official family, if he really commits a heinous and unforgivable thing, he will definitely be punished and killed according to the law."

"Hey~"

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help frowning and sighing after hearing this, and his heart became increasingly irritable.

"Queen, hey, she has a grudge in her heart."

Then he couldn't help but ask Wang Jien: "What do you think about this matter?"

"My servant... I thought that His Highness the King of Qin would never do such a treasonous thing, but... But after all, the momentum is so huge, if the officials ignore it, isn't it... unjustifiable?"

Zhao Kuangyin covered his face with a bitter smile and said: "It's not just unjustifiable, hey~, Queen, she just said a few mean words to express her dissatisfaction with the third brother, but what about those civil servants? For such a big matter, they How should I express my position? Will I also come to force her to have a baby?"

"From Huainan all the way to Kaifeng, it's such a long journey, and 1 people came one after another. I was surprised that they hid it from me, and I was surprised that they really came. So many people came to Kaifeng, and they had no need for food, clothing, shelter, etc. Okay, if they are all protected, how many of the civil servants in Kaifeng must be their accomplices?"

"It would be even more terrifying if there were no accomplices. This means that officials of all sizes along the way, and even every official in the court who knows about this, are tacitly providing convenience for them. This brother of mine, This time I have offended the public."

"These scholars are useless when doing things, swearing, and eloquent when they quarrel. My Zhao family is based on the imperial army. This is true. However, I, the Song Dynasty, want to end the chaos of the Five Dynasties and create peace for all ages. , I, the founder of the country, must set an example and not kill those who write letters to speak out. This is an iron rule I have set. This cannot be changed, otherwise, there will be endless troubles."

"I'm afraid now that my third brother has really done something outrageous in Huainan. I... to be honest, I don't even know what to do."

"How about... you call His Highness back and ask?"

Zhao Kuangyin thought about it for a long time, and then slowly shook his head.

"I believe that it is impossible for the third child to do such a thing. At least it is incomplete. Regarding the situation in Huainan, we cannot believe the one-sided words of these wealthy gentry. You also know who he is. Maybe he has a deeper meaning. Hey~, Let me think about it, or..."

Just as he was talking, someone suddenly came to report in a hurry: "Guan family, official family, it's not good, it's not good, the princess is going to open the palace gate."

"Princess? What kind of princess?" "It's the princess, she, she, she just walked out of Donghua Gate with a sword, saying she wanted to confront those who were petitioning."

"what?"

Zhao Kuangyin was startled, and then hurriedly ran towards Donghua Gate.

After running to the place, they saw that the Donghua Gate had been opened. Zhang Ling'er, wearing a slim-fitting women's armor, carrying a large shield in her left hand, and wielding a coiled dragon stick in her right hand, actually rushed in. He got into the crowd, opened his bow from left to right, and danced the dragon-coiling stick like a tiger and a tiger, with heavy shadows and broken bones and tendons wherever it passed.

A female streamer rushed into the crowd and unexpectedly hit Zhao Zilong seven times in and seven out. It was like entering a deserted place. She suppressed thousands of Confucian students outside Donghua Gate by herself. She was a fierce general.

Of course, if Yang Xin hadn't been holding the battle from behind, this Ling'er would have looked even more powerful.

Then Yang Xin led the front team to follow Zhang Ling'er, with a large crossbow aimed at the crowd to protect the princess. Anyway, if the princess attacks you, you can hide and block, but if someone dares to fight back, you It just depends on whether I can shoot accurately or not.

These Confucian scholars all came here with bare hands, and knowing Zhang Ling'er's identity, in fact, few of them dared to fight back. This Ling'er's Panlong stick is the same one used by Zhao Kuangyin when he traveled around the world. It's discounted, and Zhang Ling'er's hands were very dark, and he only hit his head with the stick. From time to time, he would raise his legs to attack three directions.

Who can stand this.

They never thought that anyone would dare to take action.

In less than half an hour, Zhang Ling'er was already chasing these thousands of people through the streets with a stick. The people who were densely packed to watch the excitement cheered loudly and in turn surrounded them.

After all, most of the people in Kaifeng are interested in trading companies.

You damn Huainan, a group of people from the Southern Tang Dynasty came to Kaifeng to stir up trouble. Do you really think that everyone has to pamper you?
As a result, the countless people who were watching the excitement and the booing people and the thousands of Huainan Confucian scholars who were scattered started to push each other again, and the situation was completely chaotic. In the end, it was Zhao Guangyi who led the Kaifeng Mansion officers and came to calm the situation. farce.

Glancing at the blood stains on Zhang Ling'er's armor, Zhao Guangyi couldn't help but feel a pain in his head.

"Brother and sister, what do you think you are doing? What if you hurt yourself? You, you, you, this is a national matter, why are you getting involved? What's the use of beating someone?"

Hearing this, Zhang Ling'er took off his helmet, shook the sweat off his hair, looked at Zhao Guangyi with a bit of disdain and said, "I'm worrying you, second brother. I naturally know that such willful actions are detrimental to the overall situation." Words are useless, but at least I have a good time playing."

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin secretly made a gesture to Wang Jien, but he was so stunned that he did not show up and withdrew.

Then he muttered: "As expected of a woman from our Zhao family, she is quite ruthless. Her martial arts skills are better than those of the third child. I roughly counted, at least more than 100 people were injured by her."

"This... Princess Qin is worthy of being a general and a tiger girl."

Zhao Kuangyin said thoughtfully, "But I think of a woman who is more fierce than her."

"what?"

"Pass my decree, appoint Gao Huaide as the imperial envoy, and ask him to take the eldest princess to Huainan to see what the third child is doing. If he really does something bad, let the eldest princess break his legs and tie him up for me. return."

"Ah...can, can it be done?"

"Why not? Zhao Guanglan is much crueler than my younger brother and sister. If the third child is right, he will not be wronged. If he is wrong, he will be beaten to death. I think there is nothing more suitable. Hmph, let's Third child, please wish yourself well."
