Zhao Tong looked at the officer, who had a fierce and fierce look on his face. Looking at the joints in his palms, body shape, legs and feet, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
The officers came forward and the leader said with a ferocious smile: "What a thief, why don't you catch me quickly? If you go back to prison, you will be whipped!"
Zhao Tong looked at them and said, "Are you the princes of Kaifeng Mansion?"
The chief officer sneered: "What a thief, no one knows who has committed the crime. We are from the Ministry of Punishment, so we can't compare to the ordinary officers of Kaifeng Mansion."
Zhao Tong nodded: "Isn't this kind of theft and security city matter handled by Kaifeng Mansion?"
The chief officer looked him up and down and saw that he was dressed unusually, and said: "You can do whatever the Ministry of Punishment does. If you have connections in the family, I might as well ask you to deliver a message then."
As soon as he finished speaking, the officer said: "No, there are important items in my baggage. Even if you look at it, you will be punished!"
The leader's eyelids moved, and there was a hint of anger at the corner of his mouth, but he turned upward and turned into a laugh, saying: "That's it, that's it. Bring the baggage first!"
Zhao Tong weighed the baggage in his hand and felt that it was not heavy inside, but the official's external words were a bit suspicious, so he said: "What do you mean you have to punish someone after seeing it? Could it be that your Yamen is not successful?"
The officer snorted coldly and sent someone forward. Zhao Tong took a step back: "This burden was left behind by the person who ran away just now. Who knows who it belongs to. If you want to take the burden, just go to Kaifeng Mansion to confront you."
When the officer looked at the police leader outside, his brows were furrowed and his face showed displeasure. The police leader also lost a lot of patience and shouted: "Thieves don't have to quibble. I've seen this a lot. It's just a collusion."
Zhao Tong said: "Since we are accomplices, why don't you run away and expose the stolen goods?"
The leader of the police said: "It's too late. If you don't plead guilty, the sword has no eyes and the punishment department will be merciless!"
Zhao Tong said: "So what if you have no eyes and no heart?"
The police chief sneered: "The Punishment Department will teach you how to behave!"
Zhao Tong shook his head and said, "Why wait until then? I will teach you how to behave now."
After saying that, he waved to a group of forbidden troops who were patrolling not far away. This group of forbidden troops had participated in the battle to annihilate the ghost Fanlou. Zhao Tong had given many lectures to the military camp outside the city. There was nothing wrong with him.
With nearly a hundred people on their heads, they rushed over and immediately prostrated themselves. Zhao Tao said calmly: "Go and teach them how to be human, then take them back to the military prison and teach them how to be ghosts!"
When Dutou heard this, he was excited and shouted "I've got the order". How pitiful is the fact that he has been waiting for this kind of opportunity to do things since the first day he joined the army. Even in his dreams, he often dreams about it. If he does well, what will happen to him? Are you worried about your success?
The head of the police officer's face changed drastically. At this moment, he still didn't realize that he was mistaken. He immediately shouted: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we are people from the Ministry of Punishment."
"Misunderstood you!" They all kicked her on the head: "Aren't you all very arrogant when it comes to lawsuits?"
Hundreds of people formed a circle, with swords and guns at their necks. Zhao Tong suddenly said: "Keep an eye on that man and use some means."
Hearing this, Dutou didn't understand, and immediately ran to Yuan Wai. Yuan Wai's face was pale at the moment, his fists were clenched, and he seemed to have various thoughts in his heart, and his eyes were looking around.
When Du Tou saw a flat knife being thrown at him, the member of the army actually tilted his head to avoid it. Du Tou also sensed that something was wrong and whistled. The Imperial Guards from all around suddenly pounced on him, pressing the member of the army to the bottom, and then filled his mouth with something he didn't know where to find. The rags were clasped with both hands, and then tied tightly with thick hemp rope.
Those who wanted to resist were all eaten with flat knives. They cried for father and mother for a while. Zhao Tong thought for a while and ordered the imperial army to take the people away. He pretended to be leisurely and continued to wander around here.
About some time later, a man from far away came behind a big locust tree, then stuck out his head and glanced at Zhao Tong.
Zhao Tong just ignored it, went to the corner and slowly opened the baggage, and saw that there was a pair of soft armor with a few beads inside, and nothing else. When he reached out to touch it carefully, he found that there was something like a letter inside the soft armor. Other than that, nothing special.
He couldn't help but turned sideways, blocking his gaze behind the locust tree, took the ingot of gold from his arms, turned around with the bead to face the sun and made a happy gesture, then put it on his body together, carefully picked up the bag and walked towards the locust tree, as if It's like getting some kind of treasure.
The head under the locust tree retracted with a "whoosh", but it turned out to be a thin human figure dressed in black with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. This man hesitated for a few moments and pulled out a shiny lancet from his body.
This lancet is only half the length of an ordinary single sword, and it is a short-handed weapon.
The man held the handle of the knife upside down, tucked the spine of the blade under his arm, and listened to the sound with his ears. He only heard the sound of footsteps approaching and jumped out with a "pop".
He showed the lancet with a ferocious look on his face, and was about to shout something, but unexpectedly, a big fist seemed to fall from the sky and hit him directly in the door.
The sky suddenly darkened in front of this man's eyes, and the sky was filled with stars, like stars in the Big Dipper. The corners of his nose and mouth were also split, and he felt all the sweetness, sweetness, and bitterness, and he fell to the ground.
He screamed in his heart that it was not good, and felt that he was being stepped on behind him, so he could only cry secretly. How could he be heroic at this time? Even though he couldn't see it in front of him, he still begged for mercy: "Grandpa, have mercy on me, grandpa have mercy on me."
"What's your last name?"
"Grandpa, my name is Yang Wu. Oh, it hurts me so much..."
"What's your name?"
"Hou, Hou Ji...ah, my waist is broken."
"Let me ask you one last time, who is your name? If you continue to talk nonsense, I will use your knife to cut open my belly, take out the heart and liver, and drink wine to eat!"
The man cried out in pain, and with the remaining energy he had, he thought to himself, this would require disembowelment, and drinking. It was clear that he wanted to eat the heart and soul. He couldn't bear it, so he had to say: "Grandpa, please forgive me." Then, I will tell the truth, and when my name is called, I will do it."
Zhao Tong laughed when he heard this and said, "Is that you the flea on the drum?"
"Yes, yes, grandpa, please be gentle. I just beg for your life. I have my own benefits."
"What are you still good at? Don't bully me, otherwise you'll eat your heart and liver and peel off the skin and fill it with straw. Are you afraid?"
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid, how dare you, little one, but please get up and speak..."
In the side hall of the bodyguard's army, Zhao Tong looked at the strong Shi Qian tied up below and said to Yang Zhi aside: "This thief is used to shrinking his bones and drilling holes. Watch carefully and don't run away."
Yang Zhidao: "Don't worry, Prince. I'll pierce his pipa bone in just a moment, leaving his thief bones with nowhere to shrink."
Shi Qian cried out: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, if I had entered other yamen, I would still want to run away, but now here, I know how powerful I am. Even if I loosen the rope, I don't dare to move."
Yang Zhi stared and wanted to threaten him a few more times, but suddenly there was a call from the soldiers outside. After hearing this, Zhao Tong got up and walked out, only to see the captain who had arrested people and sent them to military prison.
They all bowed their heads and said, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Punishment got the news from somewhere and went to the military prison to ask for someone."
Zhao Tong's face turned cold when he heard this: "Who gave them the courage to come to this king to ask for someone!"
