For Zhang Xutuo, the current situation is no longer a simple frame-up, nor is it a matter of letters.
But since Chen Gong was rescued two years ago, Zhang Xutuo has fallen into a huge pit, and even if he is covered with mouth, he can't speak clearly.
All kinds of suspicions point to Zhang Xutuo's collusion with the Eastern Han Dynasty, making him speechless, even if a wise person like Yang Su is no longer able to see through the truth.
At the beginning, Chen Gong was rescued from the Luoyang Heavenly Prison, and the Jinyi Wei of the Eastern Han Dynasty took Zhang Xutuo's token.
And now the first person to spy on Yue Fei hoarding grain in Changshe County Feng Sheng was also Zhang Xutuo, and Shi Wansui and Xiahou Shang died in battle one after another, almost all the troops were wiped out, but Zhang Xutuo almost returned safely, which is even more suspicious.
Now that the ironclad evidence has been searched out, everyone suddenly had an epiphany, oh oh it turned out to be like this, it turned out that Zhang Xutuo was secretly colluding with the Eastern Han Dynasty inside and out, and all the doubts were solved at once, even if Zhang Xutuo was full of mouth, he couldn't tell clearly Yang Su's face was pale, he reached out and pulled a beard from his chin, and asked coldly: "Zhang Xutuo, I treat you well, what else do you have to say now?"
Zhang Xutuo, who was kneeling on the ground, turned pale like dirt, and sighed: "Yang Gong treats me Zhang Xutuo as heavy as a mountain, and my head is taken casually, but what the last general can't accept is that he will bear the name of a traitor after death, and I will not be blind to death."
Yang Su didn't want to listen to Zhang Xutuo's sophistry anymore, so he waved his hand and shouted: "Come on, escort Zhang Xutuo to me, and after dawn, show the public in front of the officers and soldiers of the three armies."
"No" Guo Yan and Lu Shang agreed in unison, and together they escorted Zhang Xutuo.
Yang Su waved his hand expressionlessly, signaling the generals to retreat: "The truth has been revealed, Zhang Xutuo cannot deny it in front of the mountain of ironclad evidence, tomorrow behead in front of the three armies to show the public, in order to set an example for you all to retreat and rest, the Eastern Han Dynasty army will come to attack the city at any time, everyone must be prepared for a fierce battle." ” Liu Wuji and Ling Tong took the errand at this moment, and they formed a circle with dozens of family members to carry lanterns for lighting, and they saw clearly what was happening in the courtyard, and when they saw Yang Su taking Zhang Xutuo into prison, they couldn't help but admire Sun Bin more and more.
"Sun Shangshu is really like a god, everything is developing according to his prediction, and then we just need to sneak into the dungeon to persuade Zhang Xutuo, let him abandon the darkness and turn to the light, open the city gate to welcome the army into the city, then Xuchang is at your fingertips" The moonlight was bright, the birds were chirping, and the Cao Mansion, which had been noisy for a while, gradually became quiet.
"I didn't betray Yang Gong, and I didn't betray the Luoyang court" Zhang Xutuo was thrown into the dungeon of Cao Ren's mansion under the escort of a group of big men, and kept shouting loudly along the way, avenging for himself.
The dungeon was damp and dark, and because Cao Wei was in dire need of soldiers, all the prisoners had been brought out and put into the barracks, so many of the dungeons were already moldy, and only a few jailers patrolled outside the door.
Lu Shang walked in front with a torch, took out a fire sickle from his bosom and lit the bronze oil lamp hanging on the wall, and after lighting several lamps in a row, there was finally some life in the dungeon.
"Squeak", the rusty fold made a sharp and piercing sound, and several big men stuffed the big-wilted Zhang Xutuo into the prison with all hands and feet, and kicked him hard on the buttocks: "In the face of such a mountain of ironclad evidence, dare to quibble and obediently wait for death inside."
Zhang Xutuo was filled with grief and indignation, and roared in his throat: "Guo Yan, Lu Shang, you have also listened to orders under me, and you will treat you well, why don't you not intercede for me, but fall into the ground?"
"Hmph" Guo Yan let out a gloomy and sympathetic smile, "I don't think I'm thin, General Zhang is really a noble person, I don't know if the general still remembers the sixty military sticks on my buttocks, the skin of the beaten flesh is open, and I am dead and alive, do you want me to let the general see the scars and remind you to recall the past" Zhang Xutuo was furious: "Guo Yan, you are greedy for military salaries, and you have deducted and embezzled the salaries of more than 1,300 people, which almost led to a mutiny in the hearts of the army, and you should be punished by beheading according to military discipline."
Ben Ming thought that you were strong and martial arts, and only deducted your military salary for one year and beat you with sixty military sticks, but you didn't know how to be grateful, but regarded me as an enemy."
"Haha, I'm greedy for the salary of the Mo army" Guo Yan viciously locked the prison, "But I'm just greedy for money, compared to you who are traitors and ungrateful guys, I am much more noble" Zhang Xutuo's hands were tied behind his back, and he could only spit a mouthful of saliva fiercely: "I only hate that I failed to strictly enforce military discipline at the beginning, and dealt with you, a money-greedy criminal, by military law."
Lu Shang took over the conversation outside the prison: "Zhang Xutuo, you don't have this opportunity, as soon as tomorrow dawns, you will be shown in front of the officers and soldiers of the three armies, and end your life as a traitor." ” Zhang Xutuo let out a mournful laugh: "The matter has come to this, and I will no longer defend my Zhang Xutuo's Dan heart, just to serve the court, and I have never thought about backing."
But I didn't expect to end up like this, that's it, that's it, just let my blood stain the earth, and I want to see with my own eyes how the Luoyang Imperial Court is destroyed."
After a pause, he looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahahaha Huang Zhong destroyed the clay kettle and thundered, killed my loyal Zhang Xutuo, and reused you mediocre people who are greedy for money and afraid of death, if the Luoyang Imperial Court does not die, there will be no heavenly reason" Hearing Zhang Xutuo's ridicule, Guo Yan was furious and drew his sword in his hand: "Zhang Xutuo, you traitor to glory still dare to take advantage of your tongue when you die, believe it or not, I cut your tongue" Lu Shang patted Guo Yan on the shoulder and said with a cruel smile: "You don't have to be angry with a dying person, I just need to tell him a message and guarantee that he will be even more uncomfortable than dead."
Zhang Xutuo opened his eyes suddenly, the beard on his face was angry, and a pair of big eyes were wide open, like a hungry beast: "What's the matter?"
Lu Shang stretched out his fingers and picked his nostrils, and gloated: "Once I had a drink with Yang Guangshizi, he said that he fell in love with Ling Yan, and this sixteen-year-old woman is in the prime of life.
Oh yes, your son's bride who just took in last year is also good, what's the surname?"
"It seems to be called Kou Yuniang" Guo Yan saw Zhang Xutuo's expression and became angry and hideous, and he also took Lu Shang's words with a smile.
Lu Shang slapped his thigh: "Yes, it's called Kou Yuniang, that little figure is really pitiful to me, Yang Guang Shizi is simply salivating, if it weren't for the concern that Zhang Xutuo is a fierce general, he would have started a long time ago, and now that this guy is a traitor, I think the prince will definitely take good care of these two beauties, haha" "Bastard" Zhang Xutuo roared angrily, his fingers cracked, his steel teeth gnawed angrily, and his hair stood upside down, like a crazy beast, "Let me out, if Yang Guang dares to touch my daughter and daughter-in-law with a finger, I will break their Yang family to pieces."
Guo Yan and Lu Shang looked at each other and laughed: "This guy is already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect himself, and he dares to speak out here, and your head will be hung at the gate of the city tomorrow."
And your children will be taken into custody, men are slaves, women are maids, if Yang Guang Shizi can take a fancy to your daughter and daughter-in-law, it will be considered that they are lucky for three lives, otherwise they will go to the official kiln to be the slut who rides and sleeps with thousands of people."
"I'm going to kill you" Zhang Xutuo let out a hysterical roar, but his hands were tied with five flowers, and even if he shouted through his throat, he couldn't move a bit.
Guo Yanyin said with a smile: "It's better than dumplings, it's fun, it's better than sister-in-law, if you want to come, Yang Guang Shizi will definitely not let go of the opportunity for his sister-in-law to fly together, if one day Shizi gets tired of playing, I will also have a good time, and I will double the sixty military sticks that General Zhang slapped on my ass, and I will let your daughter and daughter-in-law survive and die."
Guo Yan and Lu Shang laughed together as they spoke, and turned to leave, leaving more than a dozen personal soldiers to guard the prison, and no one was allowed to enter and leave without their own orders, leaving only Zhang Xutuo writing a hysterical roar behind him.
"Come back, come back" Zhang Xutuo shouted hoarsely, and his voice was hoarse, but he was as unattended as a dog.
Lying on his side in the damp and gloomy dungeon, tears streaming down his face.
"I can't imagine that my Zhang Xutuo has been a horse all my life, and there are thousands of souls who died under my knife, but today I have fallen to this point, I Zhang Xutuo is not sorry to die, but he harmed his own children, under the nine springs, how to see the sky, why don't you open your eyes" Zhang Xutuo had lost the power to scream, and could only whisper in a hoarse throat, but unfortunately the heavens should not be called the earth, only the sound of the bronze oil lamps on the wall burning.
It was already the third watch, and the Cao Mansion, which had been noisy for most of the night, gradually became quiet, and a cloud drifted through the sky, covering the bright half moon, and the earth became hazy, and the shadows were full of shadows.
Liu Wuji carried a hollow flat shoulder with the Dragon Slaying Knife and the Heavenly Sword hidden on his shoulders, while Ling Tong wrapped three soft whips around his waist, each carrying a lantern, swaggering close to the dungeon of Caofu, pretending to shout while walking: "The weather is dry, be careful of the fire candle" "Stop" The soldiers of the Western Han Dynasty guarding the dungeon shouted, and drew their swords out of their sheaths one after another, "The prison is heavy, how can you be allowed to approach without authorization, and leave quickly, so as not to cause trouble" Liu Wuji threw the lantern at the soldier's body, and the pine oil inside splashed the soldier's body, and it immediately burst into flames.
Only a few soldiers were frightened and hurried, shouting at their companions to arrest people while fighting the fire: "Come and arrest these two little guys, if you want to rebel, you can't do it" Liu Wuji quickly pulled out the dragon slaying knife and the Yitian sword from the hollow flat shoulder, and with a bang, the left knife and the right sword, the cold light of the swing flickered, and he cut down several people on the spot: "Hehe, since Xiao Wang's debut, he has always brought disaster to others, and no one dares to say that it will bring disaster to Xiao Wang, let Xiao Wang teach you how to be a man today."
Ling Tong was also not to be outdone, the lantern in his hand was thrown, and the soft whip on his waist swept out with the wind: "Little prince, fight quickly, don't let them make a warning" t1706231537:
