Chapter 243: Deserters, beheaded


Helan Mansion, study.

Ever since there was a disturbance in front of the yamen, He Lanjun has been a little uneasy in his heart.

The movement is so big, it is impossible for Zheng Shanguo not to know.

Zheng Shanguo knows what kind of temperament the whole Chang'an City knows, that is the master who will pounce on him when he encounters something, this has been a month, but Zheng Shanguo has no interest at all, and it is too weird.

Until this morning, Liu Renshi captured the prisoner who assassinated him alive, and he directly gave the order to kill him without mercy.

On top of that, Yoo went to the prison, where prisoners couldn't see the light.

Because he was worried in his heart, He Lanjun went to the yamen as soon as possible, and discussed it with Zheng Shanguo, because he was caught by Liu Renshi, Zheng Shanguo would definitely know at the first time.

Zheng Shanguo behaved normally, but the more normal He Lanjun became, the more worried He Lanjun became, and in the end, He Lanjun was restless, and left without waiting for Liu Renshi to come back.

On the way back, I met Liu Renshi, Liu Renshi looked preoccupied, and the two passed by, but Liu Renshi didn't pay the slightest attention to himself.

These signs have raised the vigilance in Helanjun's heart to the highest point.

Helan Jun didn't even eat, he sat directly in the study until the evening, and under the cover of the night, a figure hurriedly walked into Helan Mansion.

"Squeak" The door of the study was opened, and He Lanjun raised his head, "Zhao Jie, your movements are too big, be careful, the sound will travel far away." ” "Lord Helan, what is so careful, you have to let me come to see you late at night" Zhao Jie closed the door and said with some dissatisfaction.

"It's not all the basket that you and Yuan Sheng provoked, Yuan Sheng is just that, you are already the captain of Fucheng, do you still care about these silver taels, are you short of money?"

Helan Jun snorted coldly and said.

"These are all Yuan Sheng is worried about, I don't care, besides, silver, who doesn't like it, you are the protector of the capital of Fucheng, what can you do?"

Zhao Jie's face was impatient, the rights of the entire capital city were captured by Helan Jun, except that the defenders of Helan Mountain Pass could not be mobilized, there was nothing that could not be done.

It is impossible for the guards of Helan Mountain to come down to find trouble with him.

"Hmph, then did you know in advance that Zheng Shanguo would come, Zheng Shanguo's jealous and hateful character is famous, otherwise he wouldn't have become the head of the Xing Ministry" After Helan Jun's words fell, Zhao Jie's face shrugged, Zhao Jie was also among the first-class sons in Chang'an before, of course he knew Zheng Shanguo's character, and the sons of Chang'an were most afraid of two people, one was Wei Zheng, and the other was Zheng Shanguo.

"I suspect that Zheng Shanguo already knows about this, you send someone to take care of Kiba, and the two people in prison will also be dealt with."

He Lanjun's face turned ruthless.

"I see, those two guys won't survive tonight" Zhao Jie nodded and said.

"You understand a fart, these two people must not disappear silently, if Zheng Shanguo notices them, won't it become a cover of ears and stealing the bell, to find a reason that no one can stop, and directly execute" Helan Jun slapped on the table with a snap, and couldn't help but scold loudly.

"It's a little difficult, a deserter, a guy who doesn't even have a household registration, Zheng Shanguo can know if he checks a little, I have known Liu Renshi since I was a child, but it's not for fun."

"Didn't you say it all, one of them is a deserter, then who knows if the other is a deserter, desertion is a capital crime" He Lanjun looked at Zhao Jie's hurry, and couldn't help but think of a sentence in his heart, which was circulated in Chang'an and brought back by a businessman.

"This is really a pig-like opponent."

"That's right, no one can say anything about the deserters, even if Zheng Shanguo wants to speak for the deserters, he has to weigh it."

Zhao Jie didn't notice the disdain in He Lanjun's eyes, and left the study in high spirits.

The next day, a death sentence was placed in front of Zheng Shanguo.

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the death penalty was very strict.

As soon as Li Shimin ascended the throne, he perfected this system, stipulating that there are two kinds of "three repetitions" and "five repetitions", with the "three repetitions" applied to local death penalty cases and the "five repetitions" applied to death penalty cases in Beijing.

For those who have been tortured and killed, it is allowed to repeat twice the day before death, and it can still be repeated once on the day of execution, so as to avoid wrongful killing of innocent people as much as possible.

In addition, there are extremely strict requirements on the time of execution, and those who are not executed between the autumn equinox and the beginning of spring are sentenced to one year in prison.

Now that the beginning of spring has passed, if you want to carry out the execution, you must wait until the autumn equinox.

After the petition was sent to Chang'an, this second petition was supposed to be reviewed by Xingbu Shangshu, so this first judgment was sent to him.

As long as the first verdict takes effect, the condemned prisoner will be held in solitary confinement, and no one will be allowed to visit except for He Lanjun or Zhao Jie himself.

The most important thing is that as long as Zheng Shanguo agrees, then He Lanjun is sure to advance the execution time, so that no one can say anything.

Zheng Shanguo looked at the death penalty application in front of him, and had some doubts in his heart, Helan Jun was a ghost, and Zheng Shanguo didn't know anything in the prison at all.

"The deserter government caught the deserter and wanted to execute it, there is also a precedent for this, but how can there be a deserter who escaped here" Although Zheng Shanguo was a little puzzled, he still signed the invitation, after all, there is a precedent for this, and he was caught as a deserter, even if he was executed, it would not be a pity.

"Renshi, there is a death penalty petition here, you go and check the authenticity, and also, the execution of deserters must be witnessed by military personnel, I am sending a letter to General Han in Helan Mountain, and by the way, I will send a letter of worship" "Okay, my subordinates will go and investigate" Liu Renshi took this invitation and turned around and left the yamen.

Although Zheng Shanguo's team also has a hundred and ten people, and all of them are elite catchers, Liu Renshi will not mobilize too much every time, and most of these catchers are guarding around Zheng Shanguo, carefully protecting.

After Liu Renshi left, Zheng Shanguo then walked out of the room and looked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, "This is more of an excuse for the official to go to Helan Mountain Pass, Helan Jun, what the hell are you doing?"

Yu Wenzhe was indeed found wearing army armor at that time, and there were two people at the time, Liu Renshi's energy was not focused on this matter, and after investigating, he reported to Zheng Shanguo after the matter was true.

Now Liu Renshi's mind is full of the pair of eyes he saw in prison, and his heart is itching.

In the afternoon, Zheng Shanguo went out of the city towards Helan Mountain, and Zhao Jie took this invitation signed by Zheng Shanguo and came to the city lord's mansion excitedly.

Zheng Shanguo had just finished his lunch break, and was approached by Zhao Jie when he was in the office.

"Why did you come here to find me" He Lanjun looked at the excited Zhao Jie in front of him and said with annoyance.

"What's this, isn't it just a normal reporting job?"

Zhao Jie didn't care, "You see, Zheng Shanguo has been confirmed so quickly, this is a recital, now as long as it is sent to Chang'an, if there is no accident, the autumn equinox can be executed."

"Zheng Shanguo signed it so quickly," He Lanjun was a little surprised, and said.

"I guess Zheng Shanguo was distracted by his task, no, he went to Helan Mountain early in the morning, saying that he was looking for Lin Zhe's residence."

Zhao Jie nodded excitedly and said.

"What did you say, he went to Helan Mountain" He Lanjun was now extremely sensitive to the three words Helan Mountain, and stood up violently after hearing Zhao Jie's words.

"Looking for Lin Zhe's place of residence in Helan Mountain, there is no possibility of going anywhere else" "Oh, by the way, Zheng Shanguo finally said that the execution of deserters still needs to be witnessed by military personnel, so he sent a letter of worship to General Han of Helan Mountain, I think this is very reasonable, it should be fine."

"Excuse me, Helan Mountain Pass, it's bad" Helan Jun's pupils began to contract, and he muttered to himself.

"Zhao Jie, he will be executed immediately tomorrow, and he can't delay it any longer" "Let's be in a hurry tomorrow, the execution at this time will definitely attract a large number of people to watch."

Zhao Jie was a little worried and said.

"Why, you're scared now, this official told you that Zheng Shanguo is not a good stubble, and he has investigated more cases over the years than anyone you have seen, fortunately this is our home field, otherwise we don't even have a way to remedy it" "No matter what excuse you make, as long as you are beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market openly, what can Zheng Shanguo do, who will overturn the case for the two deserters?"

He Lanjun leaned over, and the spat sprayed all over Zhao Jie's face.

Zhao Jie shrank back, his eyes raised, "Yes, if the condemned prisoner escapes from prison, he can be executed directly."

"Then you don't want to go quickly, the scope of Helan Mountain is so large, and the distance of the pass is not close, you can't stop this back and forth for a few days, let's go" "Okay, I'll go and prepare" Zhao Jie grinned and turned around and left the City Lord's Mansion.

"Alas, how heroic Zhao Jingci was back then, why did he leave such a son" Chang'an City, Dali Temple.

The task of Dali Temple is very cumbersome, and Helan Chushi has to be busy until late every day.

Before Li Shimin personally went to Tuli to prevent Tuli from sending troops to aid Jieli, and the crown prince Li Chengqian was in charge of the country.

Li Chengqian has done a very good job these days, and the ministers are full of praise, and Li Shimin also expressed his affirmation of Li Chengqian after his return.

Helan Chushi is a die-hard supporter of Li Chengqian, and it can be said that the entire Helan family is attached to Li Chengqian's hands.

When the capital was rebuilt, Helan Jun was able to take the lead, which was also because of Li Chengqian's efforts, and Li Shimin also consciously helped Li Chengqian cultivate the backbone force.

It's just that now there is one thing in Chang'an, Lin Zhe is dead, and there are no bones.

Li Shimin has been in a bad mood for the past month, not only because of Gao Yang's daily annoyance, but also because of how the news spread.

For this reason, Li Shimin has been abolished for more than ten days, and even Wei Zheng has not advised him for more than ten days, and no one dares to exert too much pressure on Li Shimin.

Time passed day by day, and ignoring the government was not a solution, and in the end, Li Chengqian didn't know what method he used to persuade Li Shimin to come out and relax.

Three days ago, Li Shimin took a group of princes and princesses to the royal garden to hunt, which was originally a good thing, at least Li Shimin behaved very relaxed.

But no one thought that something had happened, and the war horse that Li Chengqian was riding seemed to be frightened, and threw Li Chengqian down during the run, breaking his calf. i0 t1706231537:
