Chapter 607: The Unscrupulous Emperor

In the morning light, the four gates of the capital slowly opened.

People entering and leaving the city lined up and entered and exited in an orderly manner.

Hu Laosan is lying in the coffin at the moment, shaking with the bullock cart. Lying with him was an old man who had been dead for seven days.

Fortunately, the weather is not hot, and the smell of corpses is not strong, but it is bearable.

Yesterday, he did a big job.

Thinking about it now, I still feel my blood boil.

There are some bloated corpses around him, but they can't stop him from worshiping himself.

Unfortunately, the mission failed.

Fortunately, arrangements have been made, no matter whether the mission succeeds or fails, each retreats according to the original route.

Long before the mission, he had already set his sights on the funeral home.

The Jinwu Guards searched and arrested the whole city, but he hid safely in the coffin, waiting to leave the capital. At that time, the sky will be high and the birds will fly, and the Jinwu guards will never want to catch him.

The bullock cart stopped, and he listened through the thick coffin boards.

As usual, the city gate officials will not search the funeral procession carefully because of bad luck.

As long as enough silver is paid, the funeral procession can leave the city smoothly.

Hu Laosan counted the time silently, and he had already counted to three hundred, and the ox cart hadn't moved yet.

He was startled, could it be that there was an accident?

He has already grasped the handle of the knife, but if there is an emergency, he will violently kill people.

The bullock cart moved suddenly and moved forward slowly.

Hu Laosan let out a long breath, it turned out that it was just a false alarm.

It is estimated that the Jinwu Guard searched the city, which delayed the time to leave the city.

The coffin shook gently with the bullock cart.

Just without shaking a few times, the bullock cart stopped again.

Hu Laosan's forehead was sweating, and he held the handle of the knife again.

Bang Bang Bang...

No one spoke outside, only the sound of bang bang bang.

what happened?

Hu Laosan inside and outside,

Already drenched with sweat.

The coffin board was pried open, and the dazzling light poured into the coffin.

"Mr. Hu, something happened to you, get out quickly."

The dazzling light affected Hu Laosan's sight.

He narrowed his eyes, not caring about adapting to the light, he raised the handle of the knife and killed the person outside the coffin without thinking about it.

A fishing net fell from the sky.

Hu Laosan had no time to kill, and was already caught in the center of the net. Several spears then pierced his body.

Poof, poof...

Metal pierced the body, and blood spattered.

Hu Laosan was paralyzed in the fishing net like a blood gourd.

"Report to my lord, Mr. Hu will be brought to justice."

Wei Zhong stepped forward and kicked him, "Are you sure this is the last Hu Laosan?"

"Confirmation is correct, there is a big dimple on the chin, it can't be wrong."

"take away!"

Wei Zhong gave an order, and Jin Wuwei used sticks to string up fishing nets, just like lifting piglets, lifted Hu Laosan and left.

Hu Laosan bared his eyes, and suddenly shouted, "I don't accept it! I don't accept it..."

"Gag him."

"Woo woo woo..."

Hu Laosan was gagged, but he couldn't stop his struggle.

He didn't believe that Jin Wuwei caught himself so easily.

Why did the Jinwu Guard know his whereabouts.

One of the Jinwu guards saw him struggling hard, so he advised him, "Don't move around! Just give up, all your accomplices have been arrested, none of them escaped, and you are the last one. You Jianghu people, bragging It was so loud that I really thought I was awesome.

After entering our Jinwuwei Imperial Prison, he was waited on, and he still didn't give an honest account. He didn't even miss the thing about stealing old women's panties when he was a child. "

"What are you talking about with him? These gangsters are not even as good as civil servants. Civil servants can still endure a few days of heavy punishment. These people are all strong outsiders, and they can't bear a heavy punishment. It's really embarrassing to the Jianghu people."

"Pooh!"

A soldier of the Jinwu Guard directly spat on Hu Laosan.

Hu Laosan felt dizzy and dizzy, and passed out in a blink of an eye.

"I lost too much blood, and I passed out temporarily, and I couldn't die."

The soldiers of the Jinwu Guard judged Hu Laosan's situation at a glance.

They have handled so many cases that they don't even need to use their hands. Their sharp eyes are enough to see through many things.

...

An unremarkable carriage departed from the imperial city and headed for Zongzheng Temple in the northwest.

The carriage swayed, and soon came to the gate of a house next to Zongzheng Temple.

There are guards at the gate of the house.

Chang En jumped out of the carriage and flashed his badge. The guards at the door immediately removed the threshold, and the carriage drove smoothly into the courtyard.

The carriage stopped in the yard.

Chang En raised the curtain, "Your Majesty, we're here."

Emperor Wende hummed, put Chang En's hand on the back, and got off the carriage.

"Where is the abandoned Yan King?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the abandoned King Yanyan is not allowed to leave the door without a decree, and he is currently in the small courtyard at the back."

The abandoned King Yan was imprisoned in this small courtyard with three entrances, but the scope of activities was limited to the small courtyard where he lived.

On the contrary, the wife, children and mother of the abandoned King Yan do not have this restriction and can move around in the courtyard. Just can't leave the gate of the house.

"Lead the way ahead!"

Chang En led the way.

This small house has already been tightly surrounded by Habayashi guards, not even a fly can fly in.

The wife, children and mother of the deposed King Yan were also detained in the room and were not allowed to come out.

After passing through the corridor, we finally came to Xiaokuanyuan.

The Small Leap is truly small.

There are two main rooms plus two side rooms, a square courtyard with a pear tree.

The pear blossoms are just about to bloom, presumably in ten days or so, the tree will be full of pear blossoms.

At that time, the scenery here is unique.

Liu Yi, the abandoned King of Yan, was standing under the eaves. He was thin, wearing thin clothes, and his hair was loose. He casually inserted a wooden hairpin on top of his head.

"Public Liu Yi sees His Majesty."

He bowed slightly, neither humble nor overbearing.

However, he noticed that his fingers were trembling slightly, and found that he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

"Brother, brother is coming to visit you, are you happy? Excited?"

Emperor Wende laughed, and opened his arms, wanting to hug Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan.

"Your Majesty can't!"

Chang En hurriedly stopped, "Your Majesty's safety is important."

Emperor Wende kicked Chang En over, "Old man, how dare you doubt my brother. Look at him, does he look like he can kill people?"

Emperor Wende didn't talk nonsense, stepped forward, hugged Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, and said excitedly, "Brother misses you to death."

Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, was stiff and had lost his reaction.

Chang En got up from the ground, wiped the dust, and stared angrily at Liu Yi, the abandoned King of Yan. He warned with his eyes, if he made the slightest move rashly, his blood would be spattered three feet.

Liu Yi, the abandoned king of Yan, suddenly laughed, sweeping away the previous decadence and nervousness.

He pushed Emperor Wende away, "There are no courtiers watching here, and His Majesty doesn't need to act. What kind of brotherly love is disgusting."

"Where is the disgusting? What do you say is disgusting?"

Emperor Wende looked dissatisfied, "I see you, you have always had this temper all your life, and your words are always so ugly. Go ahead and go into the house. You wear so little, beware of getting sick."

Emperor Wende pushed Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, into the door.

Small quiet room, only a few cabinets.

Emperor Wende didn't pay much attention, and just sat on the ground.

A waiter brewed tea and brought it up.

"Brother, drink tea." Emperor Wende came to know him and greeted Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, for tea.

Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, stared at the teacup, "Your Majesty must have something important to do when you step into such a humble place. Why don't you just talk about the business directly. You can save any small talk. There is nothing to talk to between you and me. I always Can't I ask you if it's okay to be the emperor?"

"You can ask me. You can ask me if it is good to be the emperor. As long as you ask, I will answer you."

Emperor Wende looked excited.

The corner of Liu Yi's mouth twitched. Is this the emperor?

Why are you so unruly.

Like street gangsters.

He snorted coldly, "If Royal Father is alive in the sky, seeing you like this, the coffin board may not be able to cover it anymore."

"Hahaha...you are wrong. Father is alive in the sky. Seeing that I am an emperor, I must be very happy. Brother, you know, Wende's one year, the household tax collection compared to Kaiyao's thirty Seven years, five million taels more. What is this? This is my achievement. I am a qualified emperor."

After Emperor Wende finished speaking, he smiled complacently. Then went on to say:

"If King Zhao becomes the emperor, guess how much the household tax can be increased? I forgot to tell you that I didn't add a penny to the people's tax. The five hundred taels of tax increase came from the commercial tax. The burden of the people There is no aggravation, and the days are getting more and more prosperous. This is a good omen for the prosperity of the world. I once said that I want to restore the prosperity of the Taizong Dynasty, and I will do what I said."

The deposed King Liu Yi's expression changed again and again, as if he couldn't believe it.

He looked at Emperor Wende suspiciously, "Just brag, Your Majesty, no one will expose you anyway."

Emperor Wende sneered, "I don't need to brag. If you have the heart, ask the guard at the gate, is the life of the people in the capital getting better and better? Is the life of the millions of villagers in the capital getting better and better. "

Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, suddenly gritted his teeth, "Does all this have anything to do with you? You are just lucky to have a good son and daughter-in-law. Do you really think that I am in this small world, and I don't know what happened in the capital? Don't lie. "

Emperor Wen De laughed, "Without my support, do you think my good son and daughter-in-law can succeed? If Liu Zhao was reborn in Prince Zhao's mansion and still married Gu Jiu, would he be able to achieve what he is today?

As for that idiot Zhao Wang, no matter how good his son and daughter-in-law are, they will be involved in the smoky inner courtyard, so they don't have the energy to do business. You are too one-sided. Negating for the sake of negating is not objective. "

Liu Yi, the deposed King of Yan, was furious, "Your Majesty is in such a good mood that he came here to ridicule me. I will not accompany you!"
