Chapter 60: Show mercy under the stick!
"A group of treacherous villains despised me for being young, and were afraid of my husband's loyalty. They were not inconvenient for their own selfish interests. They used the theory of Gang Chang Tianxiang to try to exclude me. They wanted to isolate me and allow me to do as I pleased. Wearing royal guards, they immediately arrested Wu. Zhao, Ai and Shen went to the Meridian Gate to carry sticks. Wu and Zhao each had sixty sticks and were sent back to their place of origin for the people and would never be used again. Ai and Shen each had eighty sticks and were exiled to the far reaches of the army and were pardoned. No excuses!"
Sure enough, as Zhang Juzheng expected, after receiving the memorial that Feng Bao snatched from Zhang Juzheng, the little fat man couldn't help but became furious, and immediately issued an imperial edict for Jin Yiwei to take the person!
"Your Majesty is wise, if these rebellious people are not severely punished with thunderous means, they will definitely keep pushing further and further without end. In this case, how can the Wanli New Deal be implemented!"
Unlike Zhang Juzheng who was worried that the matter was too big, Feng Bao believed that the matter could only be suppressed and quelled by thunderous means. Therefore, after receiving the imperial edict from the little fat man to arrest people, Feng Bao, the 'internal minister', was quite in favor. He turned around and personally delivered the order to take the person away!
…
"Oh, uncle Guo, I have finally caught up with you. Come on, come on, come on, follow me!"
Just when Feng Bao went to deliver the order to pick up the person, Wang Bing, who had gone home to stay for the night because he sent a "love letter" to his eldest sister for the little fat man the night before, had just arrived in front of the palace gate and was about to enter the palace, but was suddenly attacked by a man. As he hurried over, a middle-aged man wearing a mourning belt stopped him and pulled him away to leave.
"Brother, who are you?"
"Hey, look how impatient I am! Downstream Qi is a servant of the Chief Assistant. On your order, someone needs to come here to find Uncle Guo!" Seeing Wang Bing's confused look, the middle-aged man The young man quickly opened his mouth and introduced himself to his family.
"It turns out it's Brother You. I wonder what Mr. Zhang is looking for?" Wang Bing couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard that it was Zhang Juzheng who was looking for him. He was just a small attendant and deputy commander of the Yulin Guard. Zhang Juzheng, the empire If the chief assistant has anything important to discuss, he can discuss it with himself.
"Uncle Guo, time is pressing, let's get in the car first and then talk." After that, the middle-aged man named You Qi, regardless of whether Wang Bingtong agreed or not, pulled him into a carriage without any explanation and hurried away.
…
"I wonder what the chief minister has to do with your subordinates?" Wang Bing asked with a puzzled look on his face after bowing to Zhang Juzheng, who was wearing mourning clothes in front of him.
"Uncle Guo, the matter is urgent, so I won't go on. Your Majesty is afraid that Wu and Zhao will be punished. I also ask Uncle Guo to persuade Your Majesty after entering the palace, and ask Your Majesty to forgive you a little, and don't punish him too harshly!" Suddenly, Zhang Juzheng, who looked serious, took out a memorial and handed it to Wang Bing.
"Master Zhang, you have to tell me what's going on, right? I didn't stay in Yulin last night because I had something to do, so..."
"Oh, it's because of this 'love-stealing' thing!" After a long sigh, Zhang Juzheng quickly told Wang Bing that Feng Bao had robbed Ai Shen and his wife of the memorial.
"Please, Mr. Zhang, please help me prepare a horse, otherwise I will be too late if I take a carriage over there!" After learning the cause of the matter, Wang Bing also felt the seriousness of the matter, so he did not refuse, and immediately prepared to enter the palace. .
"The horses have been prepared, please excuse me!"
…
"Have mercy on the stick!!!"
However, when Wang Bing rode his horse and rushed outside the Meridian Gate, he found that he was still late.
At this time, outside the Meridian Gate, in addition to the several layers of Jinyi guards responsible for maintaining order, even the common people watching the excitement had formed a thick circle from a distance. And the Jinyi guards responsible for executions had big sticks in their hands.
It has been raised high.
Therefore, in this desperate situation, Wang Bing didn't care so much. He shouted "have mercy on me" and rushed in!
"Bold maniac, who are you? You dare to rob the execution ground and prevent the execution of an imperial prisoner?"
Before Wang Bing could get close to the palace gate, the sharp shouts of a prison eunuch were heard, and a group of guards in golden uniforms surrounded him with guns drawn!
"Xu~"
Facing these thrusting spears, Wang Bing had to stop his horse and quickly jump off the horse.
"Choke!"
Seeing Wang Bing jump off his horse, not only were the previous spears pointed at him again, but even some of the Jinyi guards who did not hold guns also drew out the Xiuchundao from their waists.
"I am the deputy commander of the Yulin Guards, Wang Bing!"
Seeing this posture, Wang Bing quickly showed off his badge as deputy commander of the Yulin Guard. Although there are less than a hundred members of the Yulin Guard at the moment, there is no shortage of official badges and badges.
"It turns out that it was Uncle Guo who was in front of me. I was offended!" Seeing Wang Bing's waistband, the guards in uniform quickly put away their swords and guns and greeted each other with smiles.
Are you kidding me, could the emperor's brother-in-law come to rob the execution ground? What's more, even though the Yulin Guards currently have less than a hundred people, they are trained by the emperor himself, and they are among the emperor's personal guards. Therefore, Wang Bing's status
How could the uncle of the deputy commander of the Yulin Guards be offended by these little brocade guards?
"Brothers, let's have a glass of wine together when we have time. Japan will have important matters today, so I won't bother the brothers!" As he spoke, Wang Bing immediately walked out of the passage that the Jinyi Guards had given way to, and passed through several people.
The prisoner, who had been tied to the torture stool for a long time, walked directly towards the eunuch who was executing the sentence.
"Uncle Guo, this is your Majesty's strict decree. Please don't embarrass me!" Obviously, this eunuch whom Wang Bing didn't know also recognized his identity at this time. At the same time, he also clearly understood that he was related to
Because of the little fat man, if someone else comes here to stop the execution, try it!
"Brother, I won't embarrass you. You just need to delay me for an hour. If there is no news after an hour, you can execute him!" As he spoke, Wang Bing quietly moved Zhang Juzheng's face.
Feng Xushu gave him a general look.
"This... this, this slave will risk his own life to hold on for my uncle for an hour!" I don't know whether it was because of Wang Bing himself or Zhang Juzheng's memorial, but in short, the young eunuch who was imprisoned gritted his teeth and agreed at the last moment.
Come down.
"Aren't you going to be beaten? Why aren't you beaten again?" Seeing the torture stick that was originally held high by the executioner Jin Yiwei lowered, many people who were watching the excitement couldn't help but wonder.
"Didn't you see that little grown-up just yelling for mercy?"
"What little lord, that's Uncle Guo!"
…
"It turns out to be Uncle Guo. Now I might be saved!"
