Defend the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 54 The Dust Settles
"You're dreaming, don't even think about it!"

"You know I'm not dreaming, and you know that I don't just think but I do. I make them feel like I'm important, that I'm really helpful to them, and then ask them for what they need, all the time. Squeeze them out bit by bit."

Shi Zeshan stared blankly at Han Ping'an's harmless smile, becoming more and more frightened and palpitating.

Because if the crazy boy in front of him really does this, he might succeed.

"As for your God of Light, I can't do anything about him now, but that doesn't mean there won't be any in the future. Maybe one day, I can make him go from Anle Mountain to euthanasia."

"you dare!"

"With Grandpa Shi Jun covering him and Uncle An backing me up, why wouldn't I dare? Could it be that he, An Leshan, could go to Anxi to trouble me? Besides, An Leshan might not know about the things you have done, and he doesn't even know. I know which onion and garlic you, Shi Zeshan, are."

Han Ping'an paused, and then said: "Aren't you curious why Huang Xingguan from our Thief Arrest Agency didn't come back, in fact, he is on his way to Chang'an."

Shi Zeshan couldn't help asking, "What did he go to Chang'an for?"

"I asked him to go and take the letter written by Bai Shuode to find the friends of the high priest in Chang'an. Of course, I also took this opportunity to let him go to Chang'an to broaden his horizons. After all, he was born in Anxi and grew up in Anxi. Never been to Chang'an."

"You devil, you're going to hell!"

"The Buddha said, if I don't go to hell, whoever will go to hell."

Han Pingan raised his hands and said the Buddha's name, then turned around and looked at Shijun Lin, An Fuyan and the others with a smile: "What kind of status is Grandpa Shijun? They want to do big things, of course I will do these small things, anyway, I'm free when I'm idle."

This kid not only wants to kill but also punishes his heart.

Seeing Shi Zeshan's distraught look, General Wang couldn't help nodding his head, feeling from the bottom of his heart that it was appropriate to hand over those ghosts and goblins to this lunatic, and he had already proved by facts that he was completely capable of dealing with them.

Han Shimei knew that her son was addicted to playing games, so she tried to get power with Lin Zhongcheng in a different way, and planned to continue to deal with those demons and goblins.

An Fuyan and Cui Han also realized it, one was thoughtful, the other smiled and said nothing.

Xu Haoran and Yu Wangli's nervous hearts were pounding, and they looked at Lin Shijun expectantly.

Because this is not only directly related to whether the well-known and dishonest Thief Detective Agency can continue to exist, but also whether they, the members of the Thief Capture Agency, can flex their muscles and make contributions in the future.

Just when the two of them thought that Lin Shijun loved Crazy Saburo so much and would definitely agree, Lin Shijun stood up slowly holding the case, smiled and looked at Han Pingan who hurried to help him, and said: "Grandpa can't stay up late, should you?" Go back and rest."

"Grandpa Shijun, you plan to go back to Baiyun Temple at this late hour?"

"I won't go to Baiyun Temple anymore. I will go to Yele City. I will live in the Governor's Mansion the same as last time. Let's go there with Grandpa. I will leave the matter here to your father and General An."

"But what about Uncle Six, he is now my Uncle Six and my father-in-law!"

Li Chengye felt hot in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Sanlang, there is no need to plead for uncle, uncle deserves what he has done, and uncle is willing to be punished."

With the support of Han Ping'an, Lin Shijun walked to the gate, looked down at Li Chengye, and turned around to ask: "Sanlang, you are the one who investigated this case. Do you think he is guilty?"

Han Pingan thought for a while and said, "The crime cannot be blamed, but the circumstances are excusable."

"Tell grandpa how he can be forgiven."

"Grandpa Shijun, you have discerned everything. You must have seen that my sixth uncle values ​​love and righteousness. He is a temperamental person with no heart. Outside the military city at night, facing so many subordinates who are willing to die for him, his head froze. It takes heat to do stupid things."

"So he's a big fool."

"That's why he is lucky to be a fool, and he has such a good son-in-law as me."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Grandpa Shijun, what are you laughing at?"

"Sanlang, oh Sanlang, you really took great pains to intercede for him."

Han Pingan looked back at his father who was hesitating to speak, hesitated and said, "Grandpa Shijun, I told you not to be angry, my sixth uncle came to this field, you and Uncle An are to blame."

Lin Shijun asked curiously, "What does this have to do with Grandpa?"

Han Pingan plausibly said: "A person like my sixth uncle, if you let him lead the army, he must be a tiger general. But it is really difficult for him to be the deputy envoy and the chief general of the military city. They all say to know people and be kind." Ren, but you and Uncle An used him in the wrong place."

Lin Shijun nodded slightly, then shook his head after thinking about it: "It sounds reasonable, but the matter has come to this point, why order the three armies if you don't kill them."

"I told Qian Chonghou before the battle that they wanted to kill my father and put it into action, but I didn't want to kill them. It's not about repaying grievances with virtue, but because too few people from Anxi came from the pass, even if only Killing one is my Tang's loss."

Seeing that Shijun Lin didn't look very angry, Han Pingan said while the iron was hot: "Leave them to me. I will take them far away, and I promise not to disturb the morale of the army. You can ask Uncle An to tell the soldiers that they have been arrested. It's Ming Zheng's punishment."

"Where are you going to take them?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, but don't worry, I promise they won't appear in Yele again."

In fact, Han Ping'an had already thought about it, but he absolutely couldn't say it, even if the old man who had been a prime minister in front of him loved him very much.

Lin Shijun weighed it for a while, then turned around and said: "Let's lock it up first, and Qian Chonghou and others are the same. As for how to deal with it, we will discuss it tomorrow."

"promise!"

……

Lin Shijun said that he would go to Yele City, and he did not forget to call the false Taoist priest before leaving. Han Pingan really thought that the fake Taoist priest's ability to fool people had improved again.

Later, I asked a personal guard quietly and found out that Shijun always suffered from insomnia when he was old, and he had to listen to monks chanting sutras to fall asleep when he was in Guishu.

I lived in Baiyun Temple two days ago, but the Hu monks in Baiyun Temple are good at lending money to make money, but they don't recite Buddhist scriptures very well.

Shi Jun could not fall asleep after hearing this, and even pointed out his mistakes constantly.

The personal guard was in a hurry, so he asked the false Taoist priest to recite the scriptures with the idea of ​​trying it out.

Maybe there is no Taoist priest in Guishu, and I didn't listen to the Taoist priest recite the Taoist scriptures before going to sleep. The hypnotic effect is surprisingly good.

Now I have to rest again, in order to ensure that I can sleep peacefully, I naturally have to call the false priest.

……

Here in Tuncheng, it is destined to be a sleepless night.

General An, Han Shimei, General Wang, and Wu Yatui, assisted by Cui Han, Xu Haoran, and Yu Wangli, interrogated Shi Zeshan, Ashina Sai, Bai Shuode, Kang Youling, Qian Chonghou, and Bai Xianning one by one.

Military towns are not prefectures and counties, and the Western Regions are not customs. They only talk about military laws and not Tang laws.

Shi Zeshan didn't repent, and she couldn't find any useful information if she kept it, so she just pulled her out and beheaded, and General An personally beheaded her.

Ashina Sai couldn't stand the severe punishment, so he confessed quickly.

But it was useless to confess, just like the Sogdian guards he recruited, they were all beheaded by General An like chopping melons.

Kang Youling confessed to the crimes he committed. Since he was not only a scholar but also a civil servant under the eighth rank, he was given a hemp rope to end it by himself, and he claimed to have died of a sudden illness.

Father killing is a serious crime similar to treason, but what Mifatai did to his mother and daughter is worse than a beast. Mitif and Cao Duman were not involved in the rebellion. Can be original", he is temporarily spared, how to deal with it will be discussed after dawn.

Although the three Zoroastrians couldn't help themselves before, they knew that the high priest and Mifatai and others were making trouble but they didn't report it.

As for Li Chengye, Qian Chonghou, and Liu Sangen, because Lin Shijun had explained before he left, he simply escorted the three of them to the Wengcheng of Yele City overnight, and imprisoned them together with more than 100 rebels.

They are guarded by General Wang's subordinates, and they are not allowed to contact the soldiers in Tuncheng and Juncheng.

After dealing with all this, it was almost dawn, and the servants of the General's Mansion rushed to deliver the food and wine.

An Fu Yanman served the wine and held it in front of Han Shimei: "Brother Han, thank you for your kindness, I respect you."

"It's the responsibility, not to mention thank you."

"Thanks."

"They are all in-laws. As for seeing each other like this?"

Having two daughters-in-law in one night, Han Shimei felt that all this was so unreal, and even felt that she was really old.

An Fuyan didn't know that he was feeling emotional, put down the bowl of wine that he drank in one gulp, and said with a smile: "Although Sanlang is young, he values ​​love and righteousness, otherwise he would not marry Yu'er at this time. To have such a son-in-law , Li Chengye is blessed, and I, An Fuyan, are also blessed."

Wang Qingxiang was so envious, he raised his wine bowl and said, "Congratulations to the general for getting this wonderful son-in-law!"

"Where did I get such a good son-in-law? I, An Fuyan, brazenly sought him out."

"The general really knows how to joke."

Han Shimei's mouth is very modest, but in his heart he is thinking that you are really trying to climb high. My Han family is from a scholarly family, and my son is a descendant of the Han family. I am willing to marry you, the daughter of a Hu general, which is really giving you enough face.

Wu Yatui asked worriedly: "General, do you think An Leshan will rebel?"

An Fuyan helped Han Shimei fill up the wine, and said mockingly: "Brother Wu saw it, and made him laugh. I, An Fuyan, are incompetent, and I can't even lead these four thousand soldiers. How can I care about Wanli?" Anleshan outside will not be reversed."

General Wang had a different opinion and said with a smile: "If he wants to rebel, let him rebel. No one can stop him. If he really rebels, it's not a bad thing for you and me."

"General Wang, what do you say?"

"At least you and I can get out of this shitty place, and we can lead the nostalgic sons back to quell the chaos, and maybe we can make contributions with the general."

If An Leshan turns against him, his life will surely be ruined.

General Wang's words are not just for fear that the world will not be chaotic, but even a bit outrageous.

But Wu Yatui could understand it, and even Cui Han felt that the words were not rough. After all, there was no chaos in the customs. How could these people have the opportunity to return to their hometowns, and how could they make contributions.

Han Shimei really wanted to ask them, Anxi had a total of more than [-] soldiers, and if all those who could go to battle were sent back, would they want the four towns of Anxi and the Western Regions, but he didn't ask when the words came to his lips.
