He thought for a while and asked, "You said that the third prince's retainer just left the city... and died?"

The subordinate was a man in his 20s, with a lively temper. He couldn't help but say a few more words when his master asked him.

"Yes, Your Highness! This is so amazing. No one will believe it if I tell you. The third prince's retainer left the county in a carriage. For some reason, a weasel suddenly jumped out of the roadside and bit the horse. neck.

"The horse was frightened at that time, running wildly everywhere, and finally stopped at the edge of the moat. Everyone thought it was okay, but the third prince's retainer was thrown out of the car window and fell into the moat.

"The moat was filled with mud and there were very few stones. But his head hit the stone and he bled a lot. He was even sent to the hospital to save him."

After that, he was afraid that his master wouldn't believe it because it was too bizarre, so he added a few more sentences.

"This matter has spread throughout Tai'an County. Everyone says that the third prince's retainer has done something immoral, and Wong Tai Sin is doing justice for heaven!"

Wong Tai Sin?
The sixth prince frowned, and his subordinate's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately went back to make amends.

"Your Highness, you also know that the people here in the North believe this more... I also think it is too coincidental..."

The Sixth Prince waved his hand and ordered, "Go down. This matter is settled now. There is no need to pursue this disciple any further."

"Yes, Your Highness." The subordinate immediately saluted and retreated.

As a result, as soon as he left the house, he was pulled over by Xizi and several other personal guards...

The subordinates of the Sixth Prince really did not lie. The story of people drowning in the moat was indeed widely spread in Tai'an County.

Some people said that they saw the stranger drowned with his own eyes, his eyes bulging and his tongue hanging out a long way!
Some people say that Wong Tai Sin did justice for heaven and taught evil people from other places a lesson, and even listed all the misdeeds of the drowned ghost.

Some people even said that foreigners came here to steal business. They often asked about the cashmere business in the restaurant, but they did not expect that they died on the way.Maybe God can't bear to see it and is protecting Tai'an from outsiders taking away the cashmere business!
In short, everything was said, and the whole Tai'an was like a boiling pot of boiling water. Even major events such as the emperor bringing his nobles to the palace were completely covered up.

There were no more than five people in the city who knew the identity of the drowned ghost.

One of them is the county magistrate. Tai'an is his territory. It is definitely not difficult to investigate clearly.

For this reason, Manager Min was even asked for questioning.

Of course, Manager Min couldn't tell the truth. He only talked about how the man behaved in the restaurant and what happened to him after leaving the city. The implication behind his words was that he was here to steal the cashmere business.

The county magistrate also thinks this is too coincidental, but no matter how good the Tai family is, they can't use weasels to harm people!
The Tai family is lucky, and everything can be turned into good luck, such as selling the weaving method of cashmere clothes in advance, but after all, the Tai family is still ordinary people, not gods and monsters!
If we must divide the responsibilities, it is because the third prince coveted the exclusive business of cashmere clothes and pants, and finally suffered his retribution.

Now that someone has died, it has nothing to do with the Tai family, let alone Tai'an County!
Not to mention that the county magistrate had clearly coaxed him, but that the third prince led people all the way to the border. He didn't know that his right-hand man had already gone to report to the Lord of Hell!

The meeting between Dawei and the grassland alliance had been arranged several years ago.Now that the emperor has arrived, but no one has come to the grassland, someone must be sent to ask.

Naturally, they, noble people, would not come forward and could only order the border guards to march into the grassland.

And he is the one who sends the orders!

Of course, secretly, he also took on another errand, which was to explore the details of the border guards.Over the years, the imperial court has not deployed personnel to the border guards, but most of them have been pushed to the margins, or even "died" directly!
In the end, no one dared to come to guard the border army, so the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War made every effort to create difficulties in terms of military supplies and weapons. They were afraid that the border guard army would continue to grow in size, and in the end they became a threat.

It is common sense for the owner to not only let the dog watch the door, but also to prevent the dog from biting the owner. There is nothing wrong with it!
As a dog, loyalty is first and foremost important. The master can beat and scold him, but the dog is not allowed to bare his teeth!

Now, he is bringing the dog beating stick to test the dog's loyalty!

The third prince raised his chin all the way to the border with great pride. He was a little annoyed when he didn't see the general leading anyone to greet him.

The accompanying officer directly found the officer guarding the border and scolded him, "His Royal Highness is here. Where are the border guards? Why don't you kneel down to welcome him?"

The officer guarding the border was attentive and respectful. He knelt down and kowtowed to the third prince, and said with a tearful face, "Your Highness, please forgive me. It's not that our general didn't come to greet you, but something big happened in the camp today. I originally thought we would handle it." It’s clean. His Highness will come over tomorrow just in time to receive you. Who would have thought..."

event?

Clean it up?

The third prince was excited at that time, thinking that he had caught the border guard army, and immediately ordered everyone to hurry up and go straight to the border guard army camp!

At the same moment, a high platform had been set up outside the border guard's barracks, with dozens of prisoners tied to the platform.

The soldiers of the Military Justice Department acted as executioners, each holding a half-foot-wide ghost-headed sword in their arms, with murderous intent!
The general, together with He Xiong and other generals, lieutenants and generals, sat behind the high platform and looked coldly into the distance until the third prince's motorcade slowly approached, until they were four or five feet away from the high platform.

"Your Highness, please come out and take a look! The border guards...the border guards seem to be killing people!" The attendant sitting on the shaft of the carriage spoke tremblingly with his voice trembling!
kill?
The third prince quickly opened the door, held the little eunuch's hand, and stood directly at the door of the car.

Stand tall and see far.

The people tied up on the high platform and the generals with cold faces all caught the eyes of the third prince.

He frowned, hesitating whether to save these people first to see if he could find any clues about the border guards.

But before he could speak, two soldiers were already standing in front of the big drums on both sides of the high platform.

"Dong, dong, dong dong..." The drumbeats went from sparse to dense, like spring thunder, hitting everyone's hearts every time.

The third prince and others subconsciously stopped moving, guessing what the border guards were going to do.

After finally waiting for the drum beat to end, the third prince took a deep breath and scolded the border guard generals to come over and kowtow, intending to take the lead.

As a result, He Xiong suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, "I have tens of thousands of border guards guarding the border. I drink the wind and sleep in the snow, hold flags in rows, throw my heads and shed blood, protect the Wei Dynasty, and protect the people. I am never afraid of hardship. I am never afraid of hardship." sacrifice!
"For so many years, whenever we send troops, we will definitely win and return triumphantly, suppressing everyone and being unable to resist. But there are still people who try to challenge the majesty of our border guards and challenge the bottom line of our Wei Dynasty.

"The people tied up on the stage today are the agents who have been sent to the border areas throughout the year, as well as the extremely vicious horse bandits on the grassland!

"No matter what their purpose is, they are now our prisoners, and they should pay the price for their recklessness and arrogance!"

After that, he took a few steps back, waved his hand heavily, and said, "Execution!" (End of Chapter)
