Chapter 391: Ruthless 2 Meng Zhou was frightened and trembled and cried loudly and begged for mercy: "General, the last general is guilty, I beg the general to look at the face of the last general's first offense, spare the last general's life, the general's life."
Meng Zhou kneeled over and tried to hold Kong Sheng's legs, but was pinned to the ground by two soldiers and couldn't move.
Kong Sheng laughed wildly: "Spare your life Mengzhou, since you dare to do evil, you should know the consequences of doing evil, you are just a school captain, you dare to act recklessly under the banner of the Shence Army and this official, it is really unbearable to come to Mengzhou, the dog thief and several criminals under his command are pushed out and killed, in order to correct military discipline."
Hand over the head and body to Wannian County, and tell Wannian County that the general's military law has been completed, and the rest is disposed of by national law, and Wannian County will deal with it according to the law, and the Shence Army will never intervene. ” "It's not just this group of thieves, you people, if Wannian County or Chang'an County finds out that there is evidence of committing a traitor, they will all be dealt with according to the law and will not be tolerated."
Kong Sheng's words were as cold and ruthless as an iceberg.
After speaking, he brushed his sleeves away, ignoring the exclamations coming from the courtyard behind him and the ghosts crying wolf howling for mercy from Meng Zhou and others.
Some people who originally intended to intercede for Mengzhou suddenly poured a basin of cold water on the end, and they didn't dare to say a word anymore.
Fools can see that at this time, if anyone pleads with Meng Zhou, they will anger Kong Sheng, and maybe they will put themselves in it.
Tang Genshui bowed to the ground and sighed slightly in his heart.
For these old acquaintances who came from the bandits and water in the past, he misses a little old love in his heart, if there is a glimmer of hope, he hopes that Kong Sheng can save Mengzhou's life.
However, the military law is ruthless, the forbidden army is not a bandit village, and Kong Sheng is not a bandit leader, Kong Sheng is angry, he does not dare to speak up.
In Tang Genshui's opinion, if Nie Chuchen was still by Kong Sheng's side, or if she came forward to intercede, Kong Sheng would leave Mengzhou alive.
But Nie Chuchen has been missing for a long time.
Only Nan Jiyun and his son are the calmest and clearest in their hearts.
Mengzhou must be killed.
Not killing these soldiers in Mengzhou is not enough to warn the soldiers of the Shence Army, nor is it enough to calm the grievances of the clan magnates such as Princess Xinping.
The resentment of these magnates did not subside, and how could the Shence army gain a foothold in the capital in the future and bear a notoriety of oppressing the royal family, and the Shence army could not be washed away even if it poured out the water of the Yellow River.
Not long after, more than a dozen bloody heads and more than a dozen headless corpses were sent to Wannian County by the Shence Army soldiers, which scared the county government arrest a lot.
The county magistrate of Wannian County originally thought that Kong Sheng would protect his shortcomings, but Kong Sheng's backlash was more violent than he imagined.
At the same time, Wu Xianwu and these people began to panic and find their respective "gold owners" to return the property and houses they received.
The whole city shook.
The Shence Army carried out self-purging with great fanfare and undisguised, which made many people who were ready to move at a loss.
Half an hour later.
Kong Sheng personally entered the palace and pleaded guilty to the emperor in front of Princess Xinping and others, and asked to be relieved of his post as the general of the Shence Army.
Moreover, he also said that he would severely punish several generals such as Tang Genshui and Wuxian Wuxie, and that those who should be dismissed, those who should be demoted, and those who should be fined were dealt with decisively and ruthlessly, beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Killing people is not enough, seeing that Kong Sheng did not cover up and took the initiative to carry out accountability, and the intensity of accountability was quite large, Princess Xinping and these people saw that they had saved face, and they knew that they could not get an inch, so they took the opportunity to step down.
Of course, the emperor could not really exempt Kong Sheng from his military position, but only issued an edict to ask Kong Sheng for not governing the army strictly, and made a fine for three months, and at the same time ordered him to personally go to the Xinping Princess Mansion to apologize.
Tang Genshui was demoted to a rank and fined for three months, and several generals such as Wu Xian Wujie were relieved of their military posts and temporarily stayed in the army to observe the after-effects.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Princess Xinping, the prince and princess of the clan from the Emperor Taishang, secretly asked the emperor whether it was possible to arrange for the heirs of her family to join the Shence Army to serve in name.
That's what they're really for.
And this kind of behavior is also the unspoken rule since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and the bad atmosphere of the children of the powerful entering the forbidden army to gild did not start today.
The emperor was helpless, and finally agreed to arrange for dozens of clan children such as the son of Princess Xinping to join the Shence Army, and only took temporary positions in the forbidden army, not ordering Mao, ignoring military affairs, just for the sake of future promotion gilding.
Originally, the Divine Army, which was monolithic and was called by the courtiers that needles could not penetrate the water and could not be splashed, finally opened the door to arrange the children of related households and powerful people.
As soon as this opening is opened, it will not be able to hold it in the future.
After all, your son can enter, why can't my son enter to compare with each other and contain each other, and the final result can only be to return to the old path of the original Nanya Forbidden Army.
The emperor was helpless, and Kong Sheng was even more helpless.
In order to calm the anger and resentment of the clan, and in order to ensure the foothold of the Shence Army in Chang'an, he had to accept the entry of the sons and daughters of these powerful people, and also take care of the second generation of these powerful people, so as not to affect the normal military affairs of the Shence Army.
Kong Sheng personally went to Princess Xinping's mansion, and then led Princess Xinping and her ex-husband Pei Fang's son Pei Fang to the Shence Army camp, and Princess Xinping got a letter of appointment from the emperor in advance for a guerrilla general from Wupin.
Thus, this turmoil came to an end.
Because Kong Sheng used thunderous means to suppress and deal with it properly, he did not leave time for many "people with a heart" to fish in troubled waters and rob while the fire was fired.
Following.
As soon as the court meeting ended, Kong Sheng went to the noon gate alone, and Nangong Wang took the lead in forming the Shenlong Guard.
The emperor issued an edict to let the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households assist in the establishment of the Shenlongwei Duwei Mansion outside the noon gate, the yamen actually does not need to be newly built, there are ready-made abandoned palace rooms, slightly rebuilt and renovated, it is the Duwei Mansion of the Shenlongwei.
The noon gate of the Tang Dynasty was actually the Chengtian Gate.
On the left side of Chengtianmen, a palace three-entry courtyard is in full swing to expand and decorate, and the decoration task is more than 100 craftsmen and miscellaneous servants organized and dispatched by the Ministry of Industry.

Nangong Wang's expression was excited, he raised his hand and pointed to the craftsmen and others who were painting the main gate of the Yamen and the walls on both sides of the Shenlong Guard's Mansion and said in a low voice: "General, this is where the throat of the Imperial City and Miycheng is located, and the Shenlong Wei Division is here, in the future, without the permission of the General, no one will want to cross the Thunder Pond by half a step."
There was some meaningful hint in Nangong Wang's words.
What he meant was that the emperor handed over the security of his harem to Shenlongwei, and Shenlongwei was controlled by Kong Sheng, and Kong Sheng would be equivalent to controlling the emperor in the future, and anyone, including the crown prince, had to look at Shenlongwei's face if he wanted to enter the palace during the non-routine court meeting.
That's a huge opportunity and power.
The corners of Kong Sheng's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart that this guy's ambition has really not been dispelled from beginning to end, and when necessary, he still has to warn him once.
At this moment, Kong Sheng suddenly realized that it was really wonderful to hand over Shenlongwei to Nangong Wang to preside over daily affairs.
Nangong Wang is proficient in all kinds of miscellaneous arts, has a strategy, is deep in the city, and is full of scheming, he is simply a natural spy leader.
As long as there is no problem with his loyalty, and the Shenlongwei operates in his hands, over time, it will definitely make the Chang'an magnates restless.
This is the eyes and ears of the emperor's control, and the nail of the emperor's supervision of his ministers.
At the same time, it is also a sharp knife mastered by Kong Sheng, and if used properly, it will play a huge role.
But Kong Sheng was also unwilling to engage in any white terror within the Tang Dynasty.
Like the reckless behavior of the Ming Dynasty in later generations, the reckless behavior of the Jinyi Weidong Factory and the West Factory became a nightmare for the civil and military ministers from the emperor down, which was not what Kong Sheng wanted.
Just like Kong Sheng's hunch, the emperor would not completely let go of the management of Shenlongwei.
At today's court meeting, the emperor ordered Yue Peng, one of the eunuchs in the province, to serve as the inspection envoy of the Shenlongwei, and the rank is from the fourth grade, located in Nangong Wang, the commander of the Shenlongwei of the fourth grade, which can be called the right-hand man of the Shenlongwei Governor's Mansion, and the third in command of the Shenlongwei.
The emperor installed his own people in Shenlongwei.
However, this is very normal in Kong Sheng's opinion.
As for Yue Peng, Kong Sheng was not too impressed, and probably knew that he was Yu Chaoen's henchman.
Kong Sheng didn't take Yue Peng too seriously, he had Nangong Wang's wrist, even if this person had Yu Chaoen's support, it would be difficult to turn the sky upside down.
Several horses galloped out of Miyagi, and the first was a middle-aged eunuch with a white face who was about thirty years old.
This person's complexion is slightly dark, his facial features are compact, and he is full of some kind of yin owl aura.
This person is none other than Yue Peng, the new inspector of the Divine Dragon Guard.
Kong Sheng turned his head to look, and Nangong Wang also glanced in the direction of the person who came.
Working with a eunuch in the palace, Nangong Wang was disdainful in his heart.
But he also knows that today's duty is to serve the emperor, and in the future, he will inevitably have to deal with these eunuchs in the palace, and if he is not adapted, he will have to adapt.
Yue Peng galloped over, and those who dared to gallop within the palace and imperial city were not only the emperor and some high-level magnates, but also these fearless eunuch leaders.
It is also difficult for outsiders to distinguish whether they are acting for the emperor or handling private affairs.
Yue Peng jumped off the horse with a few little eunuchs, glanced at Kong Sheng, arched his hand with a smile and said, "The miscellaneous family has seen the Metropolitan Governor."
The arrogance in the hearts of these eunuch leaders in the palace, who was trusted by the emperor, was disdainful of restraint.
Although he was facing a powerful minister like Kong Sheng, Yue Peng still had some confidence because he had the support of the emperor and Yu Chaoen.
Nangong Wang frowned.
It is simply unreasonable for a mere eunuch from the fourth rank to dare to pay homage in the face of the chief official Kong Sheng, and dare to call him a "miscellaneous family".
Nangong Wang was about to attack, but was stopped by Kong Sheng's look.
Kong Sheng disdained to be like Yu Chaoen and these eunuchs.
As long as they don't touch the roots, Kong Sheng won't bother to deal with it.
But if he touches Kong Sheng's bottom line, even if he has the support of the emperor, he will act decisively.
Kong Sheng pretended not to know Yue Peng, and said lightly: "Which palace are you the father-in-law of the palace, please forgive this official for being clumsy and not knowing how to drive." ” The corners of Yue Peng's mouth twitched: "Miscellaneous Yue Peng, a regular servant in the province, was ordered by His Majesty to serve as the inspection envoy of the Shenlong Guard, and he came to report to the Governor of Dadu today." ”oshow7 t1706231537:
