Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Chapter 68: Unable to help themselves

Li Jue wanted to tear up the wanted notice for Jinguang Wuming, but he held back.

The wanted person is Master Jinguang, what does it have to do with him, Li Jue?

but.

The sharp-eyed Li Jue suddenly discovered that there was a familiar portrait in the wanted list.

Above is a Yinglang man, wearing a half-section mask, covering his forehead and nose bridge, only his mouth and chin can be seen, his hair is disheveled and unruly.

This person is the little Li Feidao Li Xunhuan he pretended to be.

Li Xunhuan's reward was 300 taels of silver on the wanted list. The reason was that he fought in the street and killed more than a dozen people.

Li Jue couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Who is this Li Xunhuan, why is he also wanted?"

Guo Ling and Hu Man were both stunned. Since you don't know each other, why are you so excited?

but.

Guo Wei still explained, saying: "Li Xunhuan is a person who has appeared recently. It is said that he stole the Tianshan Snow Lotus, a tribute from the palace, in the black market of Suzaku Street yesterday, and also beat and killed more than ten diners of Xiangfu who were purchasing medicinal materials in the street. "

He patted the wanted order and said, "You know, Lu Xiang has the command of Tingwei, and he issued the wanted order quickly that night."

Li Jue's cheeks twitched. In the future, Li Xunhuan's role should be used sparingly.

but.

The person wanted is Li Xunhuan, what does it have to do with him, Li Jue?

Li Jue let go again, but ignored it, went back to the small room, and picked out the prisoner he was going to execute today.

As for the rest, he was actually reluctant to hand them over to others, but some were asked to be executed today, so they had to be assigned.

If he can procrastinate, he will procrastinate all for himself.

Li Jue selected a high-ranking official from among the many prisoners.

This high-ranking official is very important. It is Xue An, the commander of the Zhongche House in the palace, and the servant of the Zhongche House is in charge of the royal carriage.

Anyone who can occupy this position means that they are the king's cronies.

After all, being able to take charge of the king's car and driving is almost the same as controlling the life and death of the king, and one who is not a close confidant cannot be in charge.

However, Xue An was not a close friend of the King. He was arranged by the Empress Dowager and was specially promoted by the Queen Mother, and Ying Zheng had to agree.

Xue An was naturally implicated in the rebellion this time.

Li Jue came to Room 7.

Xue An was a man in his thirties, with a white face and no beards. He was originally graceful and luxurious, but now he was a little embarrassed.

Because he is a high-ranking official, and he was promoted by the Queen Mother, no one knows whether he will be reinstated.

Therefore.

The prison chief and Jia Sizhen didn't dare to torture him, instead they entertained him with good wine and good food.

It is estimated that he will not relax until the moment he is put on the execution ground.

at this time.

When Li Jue was here, he saw the prison head showing great courtesy to Xue An, the commander of the CRRC Mansion, even nodding and bowing.

Although Xue An was a little embarrassed, he remained calm.

With arrogance on his face, he concealed the fear in his eyes, he was drinking and eating meat.

If the estimate is correct, this should be his last meal.

Seeing Li Jue coming, and taking another look at the saber, I knew that Li Jue was the executioner, and it was very likely that he would still be executed.

He said, "Who are you?"

The head of the prison robbed and said: "Master Xue, he is Li Jue, the pavilion chief of our prison, and you are in his cell."

Xue An nodded and said, "Haha, so you're going to kill me?"

The head of the prison quickly said: "Sir, I misunderstood. You have worked hard and made a lot of money. The Queen Mother will definitely come to save you. We are just doing things according to the rules."

Xue An said with a smile, "You are quite sensible."

Then he waved his hand and said, "Lord Li Ting, right? Come here and pour a drink for this official."

Li Jue said, "You are dying, how dare you be so arrogant?"

Xue An's face changed drastically, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

but.

But he was furious on his face, "Nonsense, do you know the guilt?"

The prison head was also startled, and said quickly, "Seventh brother, don't talk nonsense, he is a great scholar."

He got up, pulled Li Jue aside, and explained in a low voice, "This person has a lot of background, he is a student of a Confucian giant, and he was promoted by the queen mother. Now he is implicated by the empress, but who knows if the queen mother will save him. ."

"If the queen mother mentions it, the day he recovers will be the time when you and I are finished."

Li Jue sneered and shook her head. She knew that the queen mother was also finished. From now on, she could only live in the cold palace for a lifetime.

Ying Zheng would never see her, and she could not protect herself, so how could she be able to protect Xue An.

not to mention.

Xue An was in charge of Yingzheng's chariots and horses, and he was sure to be turned against by Aoyu. He would definitely be deeply involved in it, and Yingzheng would never let him go.

Without the car splitting in half, it is already very kind!

Xue An wanted to leave, but it was a daydream.

The head of the prison didn't know this, because the world only knew about the rebellion, but not the reason, let alone the Queen Mother.

Li Jue said, "Listen to me, Xue An will surely die. Today's document, if I kill him, he won't survive."

The head of the prison was still worried and said, "The Queen Mother..."

Li Jue patted him on the shoulder and said, "Have you heard about the fact that Concubine has a son?"

The prison head nodded again and again, "I heard that I have two sons, but I don't know who I am with... Hiss, no, no, no?"

He was so frightened that he almost wet his pants, and he backed away in horror, as if to death.

Li Jue patted the back of his neck and said, "If you dare to say this, I'm afraid I'll behead your head someday."

The prison head quickly covered his mouth, shook his head, was terrified, and hesitated, "No, no, no, no, I will never say it..."

Li Jue put on a smile again and said, "Now, do you believe that he will surely die?"

The prison chief didn't understand yet, as long as what Li Jue said was true, then Xue An would surely die.

only.

Is this true?

In the past few days, everything Li Jue said was true, which made him trust Li Jue very much.

What Li Jue said is true.

The prison chief asked again: "Even so, just in case, just ignore him, why is it so ugly?"

Li Jue said: "You have already flattered him just now, and you have served him well. If it spreads out, it will definitely be disliked by the superior. I am saving it for you, you must cherish it."

Hiss.

The prison head turned pale with fright, his scalp was numb, and he was sweating coldly.

If Xue An was really guilty of a heinous crime that could not be undone, he would definitely be reckoned with if he was so aggressive.

Therefore, the fearful prison chief changed his face.

He first thanked Li Jue and woke him up.

Then he came to Xue An, and when he saw that Xue An was still pretending to be calm and arrogant, he was terrified.

Fortunately, Li Jue woke him up, otherwise he would have been implicated.

The CRRC Mansion ordered Xue An to see that the two of them had finished whispering, but the head of the prison came here and said, "You don't need to apologize, I won't forgive him, you will have a future when this official goes out, but he is a small one. Master Ting, this life is over."

"Come on, pour a drink for this official, you have a very promising future."

boom.

who knows.

After he finished speaking, the prison chief kicked the table over, and the wine and meat were scattered all over the floor.

"Pour wine?" The head of the prison said grimly, "I let you drink urine!"

He immediately jumped up and punched and kicked ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and beat Xue An with a bruised nose and a bruised face. He was terrified and begged for mercy one after another.

He was the one who stopped, but he was still angry, took off his pants, and urinated on Xue An.

While Xue An was frightened, he did not forget to threaten, "You, you, you are finished, you dare to humiliate this official, and when this official goes out, you will never be able to pee!"

The head of the prison trembled with fright.

And this time.

A person came from outside. It was Lu Buwei. He brought Lord Tingwei Chengmeng, Jia Sizhen and others along with him.

Lu Buwei was a court officer, and he dedicated his wife to the Queen Mother, and he was already disliked by Ying Zheng.

This person also has something to do with him.

Therefore.

In dealing with the rebels, he must be neat and tidy, not be implicated, and restore his image.

Others could say that this Xue An was an order of the CRRC Mansion, with a high position and authority.

As soon as he entered, he saw the prison chief beating Xue An.

He nodded calmly, the head of the prison would have something to do.

Xue An saw Lu Buwei coming. He used to have a close relationship with Lu Buwei, so he quickly begged for mercy.

"Lv Xiang, save me, save me, did the king forgive me?"

boom.

Lu Buwei walked over, kicked Xue An back, and said, "Forgive you? You are accused of rebellion, and the crime cannot be forgiven. Today, this official will personally execute the execution. Who will execute him?"

Li Jue immediately came out and said, "Report to Prime Minister Lu, I'm here."

Lu Buwei recognized Li Jue at a glance, the one who rejected him that day, and was a little unhappy.

However, he still nodded and said, "Do it better, otherwise I'll ask you."

Afterwards, his identity was verified and he was escorted to the execution ground.
