If Xie Ting hadn't been carrying a top-secret mission today, then he might have been brainwashed by this crooked theory! However, Guang Liang could not imagine that his master did not save his life at all!
He watched Xie Ting leave, sitting alone inside the window, using his chopsticks to pick out vegetables from the broken window lattice, and finally threw the few pieces of pork head into his mouth.
There were only three glasses of wine left, and Guang Liang sighed, "I still haven't drunk enough! When I let you out, I'll go get two roast ducks and have a delicious meal... I'll vomit if I don't drink. no!"
"No, no, no, just drinking is not enough. I have to go to the Bada Hutong to find the most beautiful women. I want to find three... No, no, no, I want to find ten..."
Leaning on the straw nest on the earthen bed, Guang Liang sang a ditty beautifully, with a wild tune that was out of tune!
Guang Liang was celebrating his escape and fantasizing about finding someone to connect with before going to the Northwest Army. After much deliberation, he decided to join General Ronglu of Xi'an. It would be peaceful!
"Haha, this world belongs to us. I can find a way anywhere. You want to force me to death? There is no way!"
"My lord, please wait patiently. I only have two or three years to come back to the capital to serve you!"
Guang Liang was congratulating himself, and a banquet was held in Prince Zheng's palace, decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, as lively as the Chinese New Year!
Prince Zheng invited all the members of the royal family who were close to him. Except for the fifth master Yi Pei who refused directly without giving any face, there was also Prince Yu who was worried about the rebellion in the capital and did not come.
The remaining Prince Laoli, Prince Su, Prince Rui... and many other princes and counties have all arrived, and three tables have been opened!
"Uncles, brothers... listen to Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, let me bring you a drink!" The drunk Chengzhi said with narrowed eyes while holding the wine glass.
"Today is a happy day! I'm not exonerating those slaves. They should be beaten and punished if they did the wrong thing. It doesn't matter if they die!"
"But this slave must die according to the family laws of our ancestors! I have never heard of using the lives of our bannermen to calm the Han people!"
"Guang Liang is our slave, but the Han people in the world are still the slaves of our banner people! How can we use the lives of our banner people to calm the anger of the Han people?"
"What we did this time was not to disrespect the emperor, but to respect family law and the rules of our ancestors!"
"Today Long Live Master has always figured it out and finally acted according to family laws. This is the blessing of the Qing Dynasty. Let's have a good drink for this blessing!"
"That's right... what Prince Zheng said is not wrong at all!" Many princes were already drunk, and they were spilling wine out of their glasses.
"Our own slave, even if he spills a cup of tea, we have to beat him to death! But I can beat him to death however I want. Anyway, I can't let the Han people beat him to death!"
"My Lord Long Live did the right thing today. Beating those people's legs was too late, which is enough to calm the anger of those Han people. Our slaves, our bannermen, must be let go!"
"That makes sense!" the crowd cheered cheerfully, "Hahaha, but Long Live Master obviously still wants to knock the mountain and shake the tiger! They have already let Guang Liang and the others go, why are they still detained in the iron factory!"
"What's the use of watching the execution every day? It's just a waste of time!"
"Haha, don't you understand what your majesty means? I can't swallow this breath! Let's do this and embarrass your majesty!"
"So, everyone should keep a low profile from today on. It's not easy to win back these cards, but don't push me too hard!"
"That's, that's... none of us are fools, right! What we want is to get rich, and no one wants to seek to usurp the throne! In fact, Long live the Lord understands our thoughts!"
"We want money, not rights! As long as we don't rebel, we will be the hardcore's crop for thousands of years!"
The more wine he drank, the more lively the atmosphere became. In fact, many people had secretly spied on all of this. In the capital late at night, countless people dressed in black were passing on news.
In the Fifth Master's house, Li Tuo threw down the file and sighed, "Your Majesty, your Majesty studied under Xiao Letian and learned Xiao Letian's cunning and iron-blooded methods of governing the country!"
"Would the disciple of such a person suffer such a fate of being dumb? Starting from today, it is best for the prince to catch a cold and take care of himself at home for a few days!"
Prince Dun nodded with this intention, "Well, if we can't analyze the mastermind, we won't think about it! It's impossible to understand everything in the world!"
"Take a step at a time, and one day the truth will come to light... Come on, tell the imperial doctor that my head hurts!"
The details of the banquet in Prince Zheng's palace also reached Zai Chun's ears. Zai Chun, who was holding Concubine Hui and drinking to each other, laughed coldly after hearing the report.
"It's not bad. I know how much I weigh, and I know that I just want money but not power! With this kind of thinking, you can live a few more years!"
"If you beat me, I will beat you too! I have to let you know who is in charge of the Qing Dynasty!"
Hui Feifei smiled and raised her head in Emperor Tongzhi's arms and said, "Of course your Majesty will always be in charge of the Qing Dynasty! No matter how big the dark clouds are, they can't cover the sky!"
"Hahaha..." Zai Chun laughed, raised his head and poured a glass of wine, then mouth-to-mouth fed the glass of wine into Concubine Hui's mouth.
At three o'clock in the morning, all the banquets in the capital were over. The congratulatory princes were already fast asleep. Emperor Tongzhi, who had been working hard for a long time, was exhausted and fell asleep on the woman's belly.
Even the most chaotic iron factory in the north is snoring now. All the tickets for tomorrow's execution ground have been sold out, and people who have been excited for the day are falling asleep one after another.
And Guang Liang was so drunk that he hugged the empty wine jar, just like a girl from Bada Hutong!
At this moment, Xie Ting, who did not feel sleepy at all, appeared, followed by several new members of the Yulin Army who were direct descendants of the imperial family. They were all residents of the Wuyi Mountains in distant Fujian. The Hakka children had no personal connections with the capital.
"Go ahead and pretend to hang yourself, and report to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow that Guang Liang was so shocked by the brutality of Lingchi's torture that he became unconscious and hanged himself!"
"Yes!" The four of them whispered, then quietly walked to the door of the cell and opened the door.
In order to prevent them from colluding in confession, the 10th Road Supervisor detained them separately, so they were not afraid of others seeing them while doing this dirty work!
Four soldiers walked into the room and rushed over. One blocked his mouth and nose, the other two held down his hands and feet, and the last one took the prepared hemp rope and put it around Guang Liang's neck.
These soldiers have no good impression of these scoundrels who bully the people. There is no sense of moral guilt in killing such people.
The attack was accurate and ruthless. Guang Liang was woken up and wanted to scream, only to realize that he could no longer move. His hands and feet struggled desperately to no avail, and his mouth and nose were blocked and he couldn't scream.
The noose around his throat was getting closer and closer, and his eyes kept getting darker!
In a daze, he seemed to see Xie Ting standing in front of him, and he seemed to hear what Xie Ting was saying!
