Chapter 329 Something Big Has Happened!
The Kaifeng Prefecture official didn't believe it at first, but when the other party showed his credentials, he was really from the Privy Council.
The level of the Kaifeng Mansion Yamen is definitely lower than that of the Privy Council.
When the officer saw that he was from the Privy Council, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
One less thing is worse than one more thing. Get away quickly.
There weren't many people around, but when I saw a group of people here looking fierce, I quickly ran away.
A strong man stepped on a middle-aged woman's face with one foot and said in a low voice: "Li family from Liujia Village, Fushi County, Yan'an Prefecture, Yanyan Road?"
The middle-aged woman could not move and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I am just a commoner. I have offended my lord in any way. Please forgive me."
She originally slept in a corner near Xiangguo Temple. There was a market here during the day, and there might be some vegetable leaves left in the corner.
She will search around here, and if she is lucky, she can find a few pieces.
But unexpectedly, he was still found.
The strong man impatiently increased the strength of his feet, pressed hard on the woman's face, and said in a vicious voice: "Ask you if that's true!"
"Officials, spare your life! Officials, please spare the lives of the common people. The common people have nothing..."
The woman was in rags, her hair was unkempt, her face was stepped on the ground, and it was very difficult for her to speak. She struggled with all her strength, but it was obvious that she could not break free.
"Yes or no!"
"Yes Yes……"
Zhang Wencai said impatiently: "Why are you interrogating me here? Take me back and interrogate you slowly!"
Several big men roughly lifted the woman up.
At this time, Zhao Ning happened to be passing by, and he obviously heard it.
He opened the curtain and saw a group of people holding torches at the gate of Daxiangguo Temple. The leader was Zhang Wencai.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, we meet again."
Zhao Ning looked at the injured woman and frowned: "Is Zhang Yanei a beast that comes out in the dark to bully a good woman?"
"Zhao, you asked for this!" Zhang Wencai's expression immediately changed, "Come on, beat this Zhao to death!"
He gave the order, and the people around him rushed towards the carriage.
The one at the front was just approaching, but before he could make a move, Jing Chao kicked him in the lower abdomen. He was kicked out and hit the people behind him, hitting three or four others.
Jing Chao, the butcher, was only slightly weaker than Yue Fei, so he could compete with Han Shizhong.
When he kicked him down, most people really couldn't bear it.
The man who was kicked in the lower abdomen died on the spot.
Other guards also drew their swords one after another.
They didn't make any extra moves. They started killing people as soon as the swords were unsheathed. Several people rushed forward and were stabbed to death.
Before the people behind them could react, several Imperial Guardsmen had already rushed forward, one by one, with deadly blows, clean and neat, and without any sloppiness.
In an instant, several more people were hacked to death.
There was even one who was struck on the skull by Jing Chao with a knife, cutting off a piece of his skull.
The others were so frightened that they quickly backed away.
Zhang Wencai had never seen such a scene before. He was so frightened that his feet went weak and he almost fainted.
They only dare to beat people on the streets of Tokyo City, but they never dare to kill people at will. Even if they want to kill, they will arrest them and kill them quietly. Even Gao Qiu would not dare to directly kill people on the streets.
"Zhao, you are too courageous!" Zhang Wencai hurriedly hid behind those people and shouted at Zhao Ning.
At this time, all the guards around Zhao Ning's carriage had entered combat mode. As long as these people dared to move forward, they would be killed without mercy.
"Bring this person here." Zhao Ning's voice came from the carriage.
The strong man who had stepped on the woman just now was so frightened that he stepped back. At this time, the squad of guardsmen walked straight over and no one dared to approach.
Only then did Zhang Wencai come back to his senses: "Go and arrest this person! Go quickly!"
But no one dared to take action.
"Whoever catches this person will be rewarded with a hundred coins!"
A big reward must be rewarded by a brave man. As soon as Zhang Wencai gave the order, several people rushed forward.
But as soon as they rushed up and met each other, they were hacked to death, and no one else dared to step forward.
"Zhao! Do you know what you are doing! You are killing people! You are killing people at the feet of the Emperor!"
Zhao Ning said nothing in the car.
At this time, a group of people came over from a distance, obviously they were government officials on the night shift.
Zhou Shu said: "In the yamen, there may be people from the Imperial City Division nearby. If they are alerted, we won't be able to explain clearly. Let's go."
Zhang Wencai turned around and ran away unwillingly.
Not long after, a group of Kaifeng government officials came over.
Jing Chao stepped forward and took out his palace badge. The officials quickly saluted and said, "I don't know which official is here. It's very offensive."
Jing Chao said: "This matter is beyond your control. Block the surrounding roads and let people from the Imperial City Department come over."
"yes."
Naturally, the Imperial City Division has people working night shifts on a regular basis.
In the city of Tokyo at the feet of the Emperor, not only were there many government officials, but also Imperial City Secretaries, as the emperor's eyesight, were also everywhere.
Then he said that every brothel outside Donghua Gate has the exquisite work of the Imperial City Secretary.
It is clear which official went where at what time and how many moles are on his buttocks.
The woman was caught not far in front of the carriage, and was blocked by the Praetorian Guards to prevent it from being a trick.
"Officer, she passed out."
Zhao Ning originally planned to ask questions, but now he can't.
He said: "Jing Chao, what do you think about this matter?"
"A son of a high-ranking official led a group of people, claiming to be members of the Privy Council, to arrest a woman. There may be something about this woman that will keep them awake."
Jing Chao stated the core point of the issue in a few simple words.
Not long after, people from the Imperial City Department arrived, and Jing Chao briefly exchanged a few words.
The head of the Imperial City Department hurriedly walked to the carriage with gentle steps and lowered his voice and said: "My dear Imperial City Secretary Liu Shan, please see..."
"No need to be too polite, send someone to closely monitor the house of Zhang Bi, a member of the Privy Council's Hexi branch, and follow his son Zhang Wencai closely."
"Yes, I will make arrangements immediately."
"Send someone to dispose of the bodies here."
"Don't worry, we'll deal with it now."
Although Liu Shan didn't know what happened, he would do whatever the people in the carriage said.
"Jing Chao, arrange for this woman to be sent to the Imperial City Si Yamen and handed over to Gao Qiu, so that he can take good care of her and interrogate her tomorrow."
"yes."
After the arrangements were made, Zhao Ning returned to the palace all the way.
The night gradually thickened, and it was so dark that you couldn't even see your fingers.
Zhao Ning had an ominous premonition.
In the middle of the night, Gaofu.
"Captain Gao, Commander Gao!"
Gao Qiu was sleeping soundly while holding his girl in his arms. He was awakened by the sound and said angrily: "Why are you making such a fuss!"
"Captain Gao, Your Majesty has an explanation."
Gao Qiu reluctantly got up from the bed. This emperor was too damn difficult to maintain. He wouldn't let anyone sleep in the middle of the night in winter!
He put on his clothes and walked out: "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty sent someone to deliver an important prisoner for interrogation overnight."
"Then let's go to trial. You don't know how to handle this matter?"
"Tried."
"Come to see me after the trial! You want to make me angry to death, right?"
"Captain Gao, please calm down. The confession involves too much, and you need to go there in person, Commander Gao."
"What confession involves too much!" Gao Qiu impatiently took the document and squinted his eyes to read it by the firelight.
If the emperor hadn't sent someone to deliver the prisoner, Gao Qiu would have turned around and gone back to sleep.
As a result, Captain Gao squinted his eyes after reading it, and his face immediately became gloomy.
