In fact, it’s not surprising that Wu Chengsi would yell like this instinctively.
Every time the drum sounded, five or six times out of ten, the three of them were sued.
That Xue Huayi was overly pampered and extremely arrogant and wanton. Whenever he went out on a parade, he would ignore everything on the street and trample and flog the ants who blocked the road at will.
Cause too many casualties.
But His Majesty will not punish Xue Huayi for his crimes. Instead, he will punish Wu Chengsi and Wu Qiongsi. He feels that it is their fault for not taking care of and admonishing Xue Huayi.
Wu Chengsi was afraid that the drum would sound.
He was so scared that he forgot that the person who was about to beat the drum was the "assassin" who was attacking them.
But no matter how scared he was, how he shouted, how he forgot, he still watched helplessly as the assassin picked up the heavy hammer.
"do not!!"
Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Wu Chengsi's knees weakened and he knelt on the spot. He stretched out his hand far away and desperately, and shouted miserably.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
What responded to him was: the heavy sound of the Dengwen drum resounded over the entire capital city in an instant.
The shock caused Wu Chengsi's eyes to turn black and his head fell to the ground...
The old emperor, who also heard the sound of the drum, put down the memorial and sighed.
Is this another complaint to Xue Huaiyi? How long has it been since Xue Huaiyi left the palace? The thing happened again...
But she was reluctant to hit, scold, and even have to. Therefore, she had to take up the trap that the other party poked.
Rubbing his toothache cheek, the old emperor leaned back in his chair and waited for the soldiers of the Imperial City Guard to bring in the drummer.
As a result, the emperor was shocked when the people were brought in.
That bruised, fat and swollen thing is...
Her Xue Huayi who is as strong as an ox?
Who are those two people with shoe soles on their faces? Wu Qiongsi? Wu Chengsi?
Oh, who is the tall, strong, and handsome man who is being held captive?
The empress' eyes rested on the young man with handsome features, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, who looked very clean and handsome.
He waved his hand to signal the guards to let him go, then looked at the other person with a pleasant look, and asked gently: "It was you who beat the Dengwen drum? If you have any grievances, you can tell me one by one."
Xue Huaiyi wanted to howl as soon as he saw His Majesty and opened his mouth: "...burp!"
Wu Qiongsi and Wu Chengsi, who were waiting to receive His Majesty's thunderstorm, knelt on the ground with their necks curled up: "..."
Peng Liang didn't feel anything.
He met His Majesty's gaze, strode forward, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said: "General Peng Liang, formerly a junior general of Zuowu Weiwei, and later a personal guard of Zhang Jiefu, Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, pays homage to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, may you remain young forever, may your dragon be powerful, may you live forever!”
"Oh, look at what this little mouth can say. Get up, stand up and explain the matter clearly. I will definitely give you justice."
Those last two words of blessing made His Majesty the Emperor very happy.
Especially the words "Dragon Power Zhentian".
The emperor's biggest worry is that he is afraid that his throne will not be recognized by the people and heaven, and will not be truly destined by heaven.
Now that I heard it, I felt relieved all over.
He quickly greeted the people, not knowing what was going on, but he had already promised to give them justice.
Peng Liang raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
In my heart, my admiration for Master Di increased even more.
He stood up, clasped his hands and saluted, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, since I followed Mr. Zhang, I have been self-denying and loyal until death.
Today, on Master Zhang's orders, Master Xue and the two Masters Wu were given a small punishment but a severe punishment.
The only reason they are beating the drum is because they are relentlessly pursuing the final general.
Lord Zhang also told the general: If possible, if he could see Long Yan, he would tell Master Xue and others about how they were running rampant on the street and wasted no time on human life.
Your Majesty, please enlighten me! "
Sure enough, it's still a matter between Xue Huayi and the three of them. The emperor's good mood caused by Peng Liang's good looks and figure disappeared again.
For a moment, I just felt that the three people kneeling in the hall were being compared to nothing by Peng Liang, and they couldn't bear to look at them for a second.
She turned sideways and looked at Su Hong, who was standing respectfully behind the dragon chair.
He opened his mouth and said: "Go, Xuan Zhang Juanfu comes to the palace to see me. In addition... take those three down first and deal with them properly. As an official of the imperial court, isn't this behavior embarrassing?"
Su Hong, who was suppressing a smile and was attracted by the look of the three people, especially Xue Huaiyi, who was even worse than the pig head, quickly agreed and asked the little eunuch to help the three people out.
The emperor glanced at Su Hong and shook his head helplessly. She also wanted to laugh, but she was afraid of damaging Long's power.
When the three people were taken down, they suddenly felt that the entire imperial study room was much brighter.
He sat upright again and looked at Peng Liang.
With a smile on his face, he said: "Now that there are no outsiders, can you tell me your real purpose? That Zhang Jiefu has been in the imperial court for a long time, so he is not a very high-spirited person...
Hmm...they are almost the same type of people as Xue Huayi.
Don't think I'm blind. Zhang Caofu suddenly sent you to jump out and provoke Xue Huaiyi and the others. The purpose was not just to avenge the people.
Tell me your true purpose, don't lie, you only have this one chance. "
And Peng Liang, who felt the pressure from His Majesty, gave Lord Di another point in his heart.
Then, he frankly told the story of how he was abandoned by Zhang Quefu and how he slaughtered his whole family.
Finally, in order to show that I had really served as Zhang Caofu's personal bodyguard, I also mentioned Zhang Caofu's very personal markings on his body.
Of course, in the end, Master Di was also confessed.
Because Mr. Di said: "If Your Majesty asks and you don't tell me, Your Majesty will doubt everything you said. She will not believe the idea of going to Xue Badi and the others. You can think of it." from."
"Di Ying? That Fa Cao from Bingzhou?"
When the empress heard this name, her heart suddenly moved.
This facao is really interesting. I sent people to Bingzhou to find him, but he actually came to the capital city. It seems that he is the one who really wants to beat the drum today, right?
Okay, let’s meet here.
This "daring" guy who made a big fuss in Bingzhou and rushed to Xue Huaiyi and the others as soon as he entered the capital city, I wonder what he would look like when he saw him?
You won't even be criticized by him... right?
The empress suddenly thought of this and smiled slightly.
"Xiao Hongzi, go, go to Dengwen Drum and bring Di Ying in."
Her curiosity about it really grew.
And Peng Liang, who was still standing in the hall: "..."
He had calculated the consequences of telling the truth, but he had not calculated that His Majesty the Emperor's focus would suddenly wander away.
Are you... okay?
But the emperor didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to move. He had to wait patiently for Di Ying to be brought in.
However, they all forgot one thing: it was announced before that Zhang Quefu would enter the palace.
