Chapter 18 The Victim

Blood splattered everywhere!

Another weak official fell in a pool of blood. King Pu slowly took back the sword edge and walked towards the scared little emperor. A pair of Mouzi showed crazy tyranny and swept over the white face of every official on the right, and the tip of the sword was still bleeding.

"King Pu! Are you going to rebel by killing the king?" Liang Bing stood up without fear of his eyes, and stood up with his hair and beard.

The other ministers were stunned by the killing and then realized that perhaps they still had the courage to scold the literati and the bones of the literati were supporting them. However, the imperial guards outside the palace were already surrounded by the Chuigong Hall, and there were many swords and swords.

King Pu Zhao Wu shook his head and inserted the sword back into the sheath, waved his hand, and smiled contemptuously: "I haven't come to court for the past two days. I heard that someone was using his iron mouth behind his back to bewitch His Majesty. Today I'm here! Let's see if you are stubborn or Gu's sword, but it's a pity that it seems that Gu's sword is still sharp at the moment."

As he said that, he stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Ji's thin shoulders, looking down at the trembling civil officials from behind. "There are probably many people who thought that the king was assassinated and would die soon, so the disobedient people jumped out. Of course, there are still many disobedient people still hidden, and Gu didn't want to pursue it. Today, we are here, first, thank Your Majesty for your trust in Gu, and did not instigate you, those who are sour Confucians. Second, we want to invite Your Majesty to watch a show."

"Oh? What good show is the emperor who wants me to see? Is it like the last Hongmen Banquet?" Zhao Ji faced blood for the first time, and his face was naturally pale, but he could hold on.

Zhao Wu shook his head and asked the soldiers below to carry a basket, "Of course not, but another kind. This bamboo basket contains evidence of bribery from officials of all sizes and big and small in recent years, as well as letters from our Liang Xiangtong enemy who treasoned the country."

"What?!"

"How is that possible?!"

"Liang Xiang is a hero in the article. How could he do such a self-deprecating thing?"

One word caused a thousand waves, and corruption and bribery are very common in the officialdom. An official will basically be a little greedy, but the situation is different when he colludes with enemies and treason. Liang Bing's disciples and old officials naturally don't believe it, and the court is in chaos and there is a mixture of curses.

"Whether it is true, we will reveal it immediately." King Pu sat down next to the dragon chaise, and the sword was under his command. He shouted coldly: "Drag the rest of the people who committed the crimes one by one, and behead them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two eunuchs walked to the center of the hall, cleared out the evidence from the bamboo basket one by one, and read out loudly the names of the officials and the crimes they committed.

"Zhu Ding of the Ministry of Revenue embezzled five stones of public grain and accepted 7,000 truces."

"The counselor Cao Bangguo personally forced fifteen daughters to be sexually slaves, and killed one other person in the Seiju."

......

......

Before the officials who were pronounced their names could complain, a soldier like a wolf and a tiger rushed into the hall to get people, dragged them outside the Chuigong Hall, cut off his head, put it in a tray and presented it to the lower level of the Lord. At this time, the name of the person was called without stopping, and the swords of the soldiers did not stop. The heads showed a terrified expression and were particularly ferocious in the hall.

The civil servant trains decreased sharply, with only a few twenty people left. The dead people had a common relationship, either officials who were good friends with the prime minister or former officials of the prime minister.

"Ha ha!"

Liang Binghong's eyes were red, and pointed at Zhao Wu, who was in the upper hand, shouting angrily: "I almost wanted to eliminate dissidents, but I just framed and blamed the country. If you wait for the martial arts, you will dominate the country and bully the young master. The laws of nature are clear, so naturally there will be scholars from all over the world to quell the grievances for us."

King Pu swung his sword sheath and flew over to hit Liang Bing's aging knee, and immediately knocked him down. "If anyone dares to quell the wrongs for you, I will kill anyone. The literati of the world will quell the wrongs for you and others, and I will kill all the literati of the world!"

"Haha!" Liang Bing's kneecap was broken, his hair was disheveled, and he gritted his teeth and held on. "Then you kill. Even if you kill all the people in the world, there will be people in the future to ease the grievances for us. If you do this today, are you bullying the people of the world blind? "

"Since you keep saying that you were wronged." Zhao Wu went down the steps, passed by him, drove away the two eunuchs and picked up a letter, and said, "On the second day of the lunar calendar, the dragon raised its head. Can Brother Shinan be in the south for the rest of his life? I have been valued by the Emperor of Liao last year and entrusted with important tasks. I always feel that I was taken care of by my brother in the past to reach the north smoothly. Crows and birds also know how to feed back. Now I miss my brother and stop at Changting and look forward to being reunited all the time...."

"Stop thinking!" Liang Bing gasped and suddenly laughed madly. His old eyes looked up at Zhao Ji on the dragon throne with tears in their eyes, "How does Your Majesty think of the old minister?"

Zhao Ji looked hesitant. In fact, he didn't know how he was in his heart. But compared with the old minister, the throne was more important than the old minister. The little emperor sighed and said, "The evidence is conclusive. How can I speak for you? Everyone has heard about your interactions with enemies. I cannot betray the law. The dozen heads on the ground are all those who should be killed. They are all criminals. Liang Xiang, you are really confused. Why do you accept all these dirty people? The emperor is the gateway to the Zhao family. Those who kill are those who harm my country. I want to say good things!"

When Liang Bing heard this, he looked ashamed and his head was still moving for a long time.

An eunuch stepped forward and took a breath, and quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, King Pu, Liang Xiang... He... is dead!"

"This old guy died in a few words. It's useless. I'll leave it to you here. I'm a little tired of seeing it. I'll invite the emperor to the palace for a meal another day." Zhao Ji walked out with a swagger, but the corners of his eyes were wet.

After Zhao Ji left, King Pu popped out his sword, cut off Liang Bing's head with one sword, wrapped it with lime, and sent someone to send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

That night, a curfew was imposed in the city, and an invisible pressure hovered over the heads of passers-by.

In the dark night, a long dragon of fire came winding and knocked on the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The fire was crowded with people, and they all looked ferocious, and all of them were unsheathed.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the palace! What is this..."

When the servant saw a round thing thrown into his hand, he looked closely and was so scared that Sanhun ran away. He screamed and fell to the ground. Then a long sword cut off his neck. A group of imperial guards rushed in, killing people when they saw them, and robbing them when they saw women. A team of knights rushed into the prime minister's mansion and threw the torch high towards the attic, igniting the entire building.

Flames and thick smoke rose, and many people in the building were swallowed by the fire and thick smoke before they could run out. A military general in scales shouted: "Liang Bingtong traitors, and the family will be taken away by young and old, and the rest will be killed without any worries!"
