The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 111 How can a person be bitten to death by a dog!
At the familiar mansion gate, blood beads slid out a few long traces and fell down.

Geng Qing walked through the courtyard gate, hearing the screams of maids and maids, and the corpses of the servants in the mansion lay across the corridor eaves, front yard, flower garden, and under the Fengshui wall. The familiar old steward had his head broken and his face was full The blood, Geng Qing probed his breath, it was gone.

Silently closed the old man's eyes, stood up on his knees, took a deep breath, smelled the blood that penetrated his mouth and nose, and continued to walk forward with a blank expression.

In the mansion, there were still sporadic sounds of fighting, but it was a pity that they were somewhere. After passing the front yard, there gradually appeared the figures of soldiers from the rebel army. They tilted their necks and slowly approached the approaching Geng Qing with a knife in their hands. fierce.

"You don't need to look at me like this, I'm Geng Qing, and I have an old relationship with the head of Zhuang."

Hearing these words, the group of soldiers looked at each other, and someone raised their finger to the direction of the backyard, "Go yourself, Zhuang Guoshi is inside, and he is recruiting that old guy who is stubborn, and it happens that Mr. Lang is also a scholar, but Let’s persuade him in the past to save everyone from killing this old thing.”

Geng Qing nodded, arched his hands towards them, staggered a few people here, and rushed to the backyard through a familiar path. Human corpses were everywhere along the way, and the scarlet color was spread all over the ground. Almost all the guards in the mansion have fallen down, and those who are still alive are only half-opening their eyelids, looking at the familiar flowers and plants in the courtyard, as well as their dead companions.

Walking into the backyard, a woman with a white figure rushed out of a room crying and screaming, and in Geng Qing's sight, she plunged into the well in the courtyard, and the two soldiers who rushed out surrounded the well and sighed regretfully. He said twice, looked at the young man who was staring at the well in a daze, and left with a smile on his shoulders and his back indifferently.

"What's your name?"

Looking at the well, Geng Qing suddenly called out to the two people, they looked at him, thought the scholar was frightened, and raised their jaws.

"Li Gouwa, Cao Jinyou! Who are you?"

"Geng Qing, the head of Xunzhuang, is he in the backyard?"

"Yes, yes." The two waved their hands impatiently. Geng Qing nodded with a smile, quickened his pace, and entered the backyard. Zhuang Renli stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking at the old man who had moved a chair under the eaves and sat on it.

"In Xiazhuang, there are all heroes of the rebel army behind him. I heard that Yu Cong, the emperor's son-in-law, was shot by the left servant of the Shangshu of the Tang Dynasty. The master of the country does not want to kill them all. Now that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty has run away, why are you still guarding? Join our rebel army, Huang The king will definitely treat you kindly."

Princess Li Huan of Guangde stood behind her husband with a sword in her hand, glared at him with her phoenix eyes, and spat at him.

"Little man gets his way."

Zhuang Renli's expression remained unchanged, he glanced at the middle-aged woman behind the old man who was speaking, and raised his chin slightly: "The winner is the king and the loser is the same principle since ancient times. Your Li family is in decline, so it's no wonder others seized your family."

He has been promised by Huang Chao to be a national teacher, and the general Lulin has been allocated to him. He has the posture of a martial arts leader. At present, almost everyone in the Jianghu knows that the head of Zhuang is about to become a national teacher. What he said It is even more cheering, everyone applauds and applauds!

Tang Baoer was also in the crowd, her pretty face was flushed with excitement, she was born in the Jianghu, she has long been used to beating and killing people, and she has seen many things about killing people, there are more miserable ones than this, standing in the courtyard, there is no life at all Feeling sympathetic, I felt that what Master said made a lot of sense.

"Master said it well!"

Hearing the applause from around, Zhuang Renli raised his hands and cupped his fists towards the surrounding Jianghu people, and looked at Yu Cong, the son-in-law under the eaves.

"What does Zuo Pushe say? Surrender or not?"

Sunshine walked in the yard, and Geng Qing went around to the front.

The old man under the eaves raised his face, and seemed to see the young man walking out of the crowd with a smile on his face, and reached out to hold his wife who wanted to come forward to argue.

"Don't fight with dogs."

Yu Cong looked away from a group of Jiang Hu people, looked to the other side, and stood up tremblingly, pressing on the arm of the chair, just looking at an old tree that was gradually yellowing in the courtyard.

"Huan'er. Do you remember that tree?"

There were tears in Princess Guangde's eyes, she nodded and said 'yes': "It was planted together when my husband and I got married."

Zhuang Renli frowned, and when he heard the old man talking about it, he thought it was a waste of time, or felt ashamed to speak, so he took two steps forward with his hands behind his back.

"It's best for the son-in-law to answer my teacher."

The old man didn't answer, but walked slowly under the eaves, looking at the old tree, with a soft voice.

"In a blink of an eye, the tree is old, and the person is also old. I always feel that there are still many things to do. Unfortunately, the time is not allowed. The old man has a lot of regrets in his life. He has run for the common people, for the family and the country, saved many people, and tried his best. I tried my best to repair it, but in the end nothing was achieved, hehe, it also provoked a group of dogs without owners, barking and barking, and grinning when they saw people, for fear that others would not know the sharpness of their canine teeth."

"You!" Zhuang Renli frowned, and put his hands down from his back.

Yu Cong held his hands behind his back, and gently stroked his robe against the wind blowing across the courtyard, with a smile on his face, as if mocking the people in the courtyard.

"A group of rabid dogs urging people to surrender them is simply a dream."

"presumptuous!"

Zhuang Renli clenched his fists tightly. Now that he has been promised to be a national teacher, how can he be insulted at will? He clenched his fists and walked over. Princess Guangde pulled out her long sword and stepped forward to stop him. Ren Li swept away with a wave of his palm, smashing the chair under the eaves.

"Since you want to die, my teacher will help you!"

The old man turned his face slightly, and looked at his wife who was struggling to get up with blood on the corner of her mouth. His heartbroken expression flashed, and then his eyes fell on the old tree in the courtyard again. The yellowish branches and leaves swayed in the wind, rustling. The sound is delightful.

It's just that in the future, I can't hear it anymore.

"Old man, die!" The words came, Yu Cong's face remained unchanged, and he looked at the swaying cang tree calmly. The old man's eyes were a little blurred, as if he saw himself rushing to Chang'an for the exam when he was young, and he saw the flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, The title of the gold list, met many like-minded people, tried to save the country, and finally was demoted by the emperor with regret, his wife stayed with him, and went to other governors to stay together
From the beginning to the end, the old man never took a look at Zhuang Renli, a man from the rivers and lakes.

He took out the dagger prepared in his sleeve, held it in his hand, and looked at the morning sun among the clouds, "How can a person be killed by a dog!"

"Yu Ma!!"

Geng Qing yelled anxiously, and rushed over. The old man under the eaves glanced at him, smiled slightly, nodded approvingly, and dropped his raised arms.

puff!
The dagger pierced through the chest and pierced into the atrium of the heart. Yu Cong stood there, his chest was stained red with blood, his body swayed, and he fell straight backwards.

Geng Qing ran over, hugged the old man, and was silent.

Zhuang people can't vent their anger. Originally, it was nothing to kill a son-in-law who lost power, but the other party taunted him bit by bit. After killing him, it is common sense to vent his anger. But now the old man committed suicide and died. Unable to swallow, his eyes fell on Geng Qing.

"How did you get here?"

"Since Zhuang Guoshi killed Yu Cong, please let Princess Guangde go." Geng Qing didn't answer him directly, and gently put the dead old man in his arms on the ground, stood up and slowly arched his hands towards Zhuang Renli , Tang Baoer trotted over there and asked him why he begged the princess.

People from the Jianghu over there, some who knew the young man, all looked at him to see what he had to say.

Geng Qing smiled: "Everyone was able to enter the city, in fact, there is also the order of the concubine, and Princess Guangde, who has a reputation for virtuousness, is a role model among women. If she also suffers a tragic death, what will Huang Wang's wife and daughter think? Everyone They are all well-known figures in the green forest, and if they embarrass a woman, it may not sound good to spread the word."

Everyone didn't care about virtuousness, but the last sentence made them hesitate. People in the green forest are the most famous, and it is really inappropriate to force an elderly woman to be killed.

Zhuang Renli glanced at the woman with disheveled hair on the ground, leaning on his sword, and was hesitating whether to kill her, after all, she was also a member of the clan.

"Master Zhuang, I came here this time, and I'm actually looking for you." Geng Qing said softly, "I went to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice early this morning, and found Lin Laien, and I will send him over tonight!"

"Uncle Lin is not dead?" Tang Bao'er stepped back happily, turned around and ran to the master, pulled his sleeves and shouted: "Great, master, did you hear that? Uncle Lin is not dead."

Zhuang Renli was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, you send him over tonight."

After finishing speaking, he summoned the manpower, carried the old man's body, and brought it back to the imperial city for business.

The wind in the courtyard stopped, and the sunlight that bloomed in the gaps in the clouds gradually covered it, and it was no longer dazzling.

Geng Qing walked to the side of the woman, snatched the sword she wanted to lift off her neck, and threw it on the ground with a 'dang', directly resisting the man to her shoulders, and walked out of the consort's mansion.

Princess Guangde struggled desperately on his shoulders, watching the blood-stained and dead mansion disappear into the distance, gradually stopped struggling, and tears fell down.

When Geng Qing threw her into the carriage, the woman looked outside the curtain and cried loudly.

"Dachun, go home."

Geng Qing sat on the futon and gave a soft command with a gloomy expression.
