Chapter 757 Domineering High Beard
In the winter of the 43rd year of Jiajing, there were two lively events. One was the horse racing conference promoted by Tang Yi, and the other was the case of Yan Shifan, who had been delaying, finally came to an end.
The three major crimes announced to the public were the first to make friends with the bandit Luo Longwen, and Luo Longwen colluded with Japanese pirates, which confirmed Yan Shifan's charge of being connected with Japanese troops; the second was to flee privately from the place where he was exiled, and returned to his hometown in Jiangxi and summoned bandits to gather thugs, and plot against him; the third was to choose a place with royal aura to build a house, which was full of courage and conspiracy.
Yan Shifan had no reason to survive for three serious crimes. Jiajing criticized him and Yan Shifan was executed in a stern manner. The decree was passed to the cabinet. Xu Jie immediately issued the Ministry of Justice to execute the execution on a date.
On the day Yan Shifan was executed, everyone in the capital was alarmed, and hundreds of thousands of people rushed out to look forward to it. They were not learning the style of the little master, but wanted to see what the end of this harmful spirit would end.
The roads on both sides were blocked, and Shuntian Prefecture and the Ministry of Justice had to send ten times of their manpower to take strict precautions, and finally successfully sent Yan Shifan to the court.
Lingchi's execution is unusual. Over the years, I'm afraid only Liu Jin has enjoyed it. Logically, Jiajing would not hate Yan Shifan so much. But not long ago, King Jing Zhu Zaitin died. A confidant eunuch passed on his last words. The next day, Jiajing criticized Yan Shifan's death penalty, and Lingchi was executed!
There has never been a secret in the palace. It is said that King Jing no longer pretended to be crazy and stupid when he was dying. He cried loudly, saying that he should not listen to Yan Shifan's bewitchment, nor should he be mingled with Yan Shifan, which would damage the royal bloodline. He was a sinner of the Zhu family and was ashamed of his ancestors. He asked Jiajing to return the land of the fief to the people after his death and dismiss the people in the royal palace. He also asked Jiajing to find him a place to bury him at will, and not be buried with him for a grand funeral...
Whether it is true remorse or false story.
King Jing died, and a not-so-frequent war for the throne came to an end. Jiajing could forgive his son, but he would not forgive Yan Shifan. On the contrary, he had to use the most cruel means to find Yan Shifan to settle the accounts.
In the cold winter, extremely thin fishing nets wrapped around Yan Shifan's fat body, and pieces of fat flowed out of the mesh.
Swish!
The knife shone coldly, and with a gentle stroke, a piece of flesh fell down. Yan Shifan's body trembled violently, and his forehead was sweating because of pain. He opened his mouth wide and made a whimpering sound.
Yan Shifan is a smart man. Someone secretly used medicine to make him crazy. He simply took the initiative and I will show you crazy.
Unfortunately, the Chaozhou Bureau did not develop as he thought. Xu Jie, who recovered, was even more ruthless. He directly slaughtered Yan Shifan's voice, making him unable to speak.
When he reached the critical moment of life and death, he could only open his mouth wide and struggle like a fish.
When every piece of meat was cut off, he was in great pain and could not even be unconscious. There was a special person next to him watching. After cutting dozens of knives, people would feed him a mouthful of old ginseng soup. If the blood vessels were cut, some people would immediately burn them with gunpowder to avoid excessive bleeding and death. Obviously, this was the method of the Jinyiwei.
You are the culprit who killed Lu Taibao!
Yan Shifan might not have thought that he would have so many enemies, and the surroundings of the court were filled with dark people. After the initial fear, someone shouted at the top of his voice.
"Master, give the meat slices to the villain. The little one has a deep feud with Yan Shifan!"
The executioner threw a piece of it casually, and the man immediately grabbed it and quickly took it home. When the others saw it, their eyes turned red.
"We want it too, give it to us!"
The executioner threw a few pieces and regretted it. The things are rare and the pigs have increased their prices. How can Yan Shifan’s meat be given to others for nothing?
"One tael of silver is slaughtered on the spot, and the old man is not deceived, and both money and goods are clear, and the old man is not deceived!"
OK!
The execution turned into selling meat. Sure enough, someone threw silver on the stage. The executioner cut a piece of meat and threw it over without saying a word.
In this way, Yan Shifan cut three days, with 3,600 swords, and one sword was not bad. Finally, he cut off his neck with an axe. The evil-doer's little cabinet completely closed his eyes.
Luo Longwen was also the one who executed Yan Shifan. His way of death was relatively straightforward, and he was cut in half. He fell from the air and cut Luo Longwen at his waist. Luo Longwen, who had lost half of his body, had not died immediately. He was so painful that he rolled back and forth on the ground, and blood and internal organs were flowing everywhere, which was shocking.
In addition, Yan Shifan's sons, including Yan Hu, were all executed, and even his grandson-in-law, Xu Jie was no longer polite.
Now the Yan family has dug up the roots and cut off the seedlings, leaving only the lonely Yan Song. With the execution of their children and grandchildren, the old man’s life will be even more difficult. Living is a torture and punishment!
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Juzheng's housekeeper You Qi was also executed on the same day.
His crime was to kill his master and accept bribes...
Dead, all dead.
Tang Shen was particularly moved that Luo Longwen, that Tang Qin, was once his classmate. Because of his jealousy, he went on a path of evil, followed one master after another, and finally got finished with Yan Shifan.
The law of nature is circulating, and retribution is unhappy.
"I finally finished my mind!"
"Hmph, there is still one person left!" Tang Yi looked unkind and slapped the table angrily.
He dared to say that he had never let go of the water, but he didn't kill Zhang Juzheng, and he actually allowed him to go to Leizhou safely. He has been on duty for several months. If he can't kill someone, can Tang Yi not hate him?
"It's all Wang Zhi's fault. What's the bullshit of the ship owner of Wufeng, he's just a bucket of money, and he can't even intercept or kill a person. Is he just a waste of money?"
Tang Shen looked at his angry son and shook his head, "Okay, the person who should be scolded is not Wang Zhi, but you!"
"Why is it me?" Tang Yi said unconvincedly.
"Why isn't you? If you want to kill Zhang Juzheng, why don't you tell your father, why did you let Wang Zhi, who had never even seen Zhang Juzheng, take action? It would be strange if nothing happened!"
Tang Yi was stunned by the choking and couldn't say a word.
In fact, Tang Yi arranged three groups of people to intercept Zhang Juzheng. The first route was placed in Tianjin Port, and was about to set off from the sea route. He started on the way. However, Zhang Juzheng chose to walk the canal. The plan changed immediately and used people to intercept Zhang Juzheng in Yangzhou. As a result, Zhang Juzheng arrived at the boundary of Shandong, suddenly got off the ship, arrived in Haizhou, and took a boat south.
He had no choice but to intercept the kill from the sea, so he sent Wang Zhi from Dongfan Island. He thought that the owner of the Five Peaks was famous and would not make any mistakes, but he only killed Zhang Juzheng's hungry master. Zhang Juzheng arrived in Leizhou safely.
All the hard work was wasted. Tang Yi regretted it very much. If it were handed over to Xu Hai or Xu Huan, it would be fine if Xi Muyun had to do it, and he could do better than Wang Zhi.
But Tang Yi swears to the sky that he never thought about his father, but think about it, who is more familiar with the sea surface in Fujian than Tang Shen? If his father takes action, he is afraid that Zhang Juzheng will die!
Perhaps, subconsciously, Tang Yi didn't want his father to get involved in things that affected his image, so he made a mistake.
Unable to bear the son's blaming himself, Tang Shen patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "Is it just Zhang Juzheng that makes my son so afraid?"
"What do you always say, is a guy who can be regarded as the successor by Xu Jie a good deal?" Tang Yi asked back.
Tang Shen laughed, "Yes, tell the truth with your father, are you having some friendship with Zhang Juzheng? Why did you always talk to him in the past, and this time you must be killed?"
"this!"
Tang Yi once was speechless. Perhaps it was because of his consciousness in his previous life and his interactions in this life. Not many people could look at Tang Yi, but Zhang Juzheng was just one. Although the two people had different methods, different ideas, and different standards for being a human being, they all had great ambitions and wanted to save the country and the people. They could barely be regarded as like-minded and the best opponents.
Tang Shen smiled slightly, "Silly boy, sometimes killing people is not the best way. If you want to take Zhang Juzheng, there are many ways. My father used two tricks and told you."
Tang Yi suddenly felt energetic, "Please speak, always."
"Sometimes ago, Wang Zhi told me that he had not accomplished his work and asked me to plead with you. Dad thought, since you regard Zhang Juzheng as your opponent, you can't spare him. I sent an old Tongsheng to find a way to approach Zhang Juzheng and strive to become his adviser. This is the first wedge that my father has planted. Secondly, I asked someone to start investigating the Zhang family in Jiangling. The Zhang family has made a lot of voices in recent years, including salt and grain, and has made a lot of money. If you attack the Zhang family, what do you think?"
"It's amazing!"
Tang Yi really couldn't help but slap him. As long as he could hold Zhang Juzheng's life gate, it was really no different whether he was dead or alive. Moreover, Zhang Jiangling's talent was unquestionable. Maybe this person would have special uses in the future...
"Dad, I have to say, you are already an old fox!"
"Can you use some good words? Your father is a scheming person."
"Yes, yes, daddy's clever tricks, and the child is ashamed of it.
...
Outside the small station, five thousand soldiers from the Beijing camp lined up neatly, with clear flags, flying dragons and tigers, flying teeth and claws, and their armor was distinctive, looking very imposing and majestic.
In front of the team, there were two senior leaders, the leader's beard and a few pieces of dirt on his crimson official uniform, and he didn't care. It was Gao Gong, the Minister of Rites, who was next to him, a gentle old minister and the new Minister of War Jiangdong. Due to Tang Yi's bad intentions, Wang Chonggu's plan to join the Ministry of War went bankrupt, and Xu Jie transferred the respected Jiangdong back to the capital.
The two Shangshu led the team, with a huge crowd, and they rushed to the small station.
"This Tang Xingzhi is really harmful. In the middle of winter, he insists on horse racing. He talks, and we have to suffer with it, not be a son of man, not a son of man!"
Gao Gong complained casually, and suddenly galloped past the front of the team, with nearly a hundred war horses, leaping like an arrow, quickly passing by in front of him and disappearing on the vast field.
"What a fast horse!" Gao Gong exclaimed.
However, Jiang Dong suddenly shrank his pupils, full of confusion and envy, "What a group of good horses, I'm afraid the entire Ming Dynasty does not have such a good stallion!"
Chapter completed!
