There were few stars in the night sky. Mandu Daru rode a horse through the streets of Yunzhong Mansion in the early morning. On the way, he met the soldiers patrolling the city, and the two companions behind him took tokens for him.

Check.

After running for a long time, he arrived at the long street where his cousin lived in the west of the city. He slapped the door, and then his cousin rushed out of the room and opened the door.

"It's so late that I don't even know if he still has eyes -"

The prisoner's crazy laughter rang in his mind. He originally thought that the children at home were kidnapped by Black Flag, but it was not the case. His cousin dragged him and ran to the medical clinic at the other end of the street.

He talked sadly about what happened in the afternoon.

Yesterday afternoon, a carriage that came from nowhere rushed through this long street at high speed. The legs of the eleven-year-old child at home were crushed on the spot. The driver did not stop as if he was crazy. A horse hanging from the back of the carriage was

An iron hook caught the child's right hand, and he dragged the child across half a long street, then cut the rope on the iron hook and ran away.

The child was dragged by the carriage into a bloody man and rushed to the hospital. He was still alive at this time, but he didn't know if he could survive it.

This child is indeed from Mandu Daru.

In the early years, I returned to Yunzhong to work as a police officer. I had no backing and not many ways to get promoted, so I had no choice but to work hard. The folk customs in the North are fierce and brave, and the bandits who have been active on the road are many good ones from the military, and even

As a remnant after the fall of the Liao Kingdom, he wanted to make a career, so he quietly gave the child to his cousin to raise him. After that, he only came to visit a few times.

In the past few years, his status has gradually increased, and the possibility of harming his family has become less likely. However, who could have expected that there would be such a crazy desperado in Black Flag?

All the way to the hospital, the cousin who was guarding here had already cried until her eyes were red and swollen. They had raised the child for many years and had developed real feelings. Seeing Mandu Daru coming, the cousin dragged him to the hospital.

He told the murderer how abominable he was and told him to catch him and kill him with a thousand cuts. Mandu Daru was speechless. He followed the doctor towards the medical center and when he got near the wooden door, he even hesitated slightly and fell into a trance.

After a while, I stepped in.

The doctor described the situation in his ear.

Mandu Daru looked at the child on the bed who was full of medicine smell. For a moment, he felt that the doctor was a bit noisy. He reached out and pushed to the side, but no one was pushed. Several people next to him looked at him doubtfully. Then, he pulled out

knife.

The eleven-year-old child on the bed has lost two legs, one hand, and his face has been dragged on the ground for half a long street. He has already become a bloody mess. The doctor does not guarantee that he will survive tonight, but even if he survives

After that, in the long life to come, he will only have one hand and half a face. Anyone who thinks about such a life will feel suffocated.

Mandu Daru pointed the blade towards the child, but he involuntarily took a step back. The cousin on the side screamed and rushed over, snatching the knife from his hand. The sound of crying resounded through the night sky.

The expression on his face was sometimes ferocious and sometimes trance-like. In the end, he was unable to use the knife. His cousin-in-law cried out loudly: "Go and kill the murderer! Aren't you the one who always catches the head? You go and catch the murderer who killed that day."

——That beast——”

Mandu Daru was pushed out of the room staggeringly, and the people around him were still gnashing their teeth to persuade him to catch the murderer. Mandu Daru's crazy face flashed in his mind, and there was a calm look on that crazy face.

Eyes.

"You killed Lu Mingfang, right?"

"...We are settled about Lu Mingfang."

When we arrested a member of the Chinese Army named Lu Mingfang last year, he refused to surrender until he died. They didn't even figure out his identity for a while. After the fight, they vented their anger and almost chopped the man into many pieces. Only later did we find out that

Ren Nai is the person in charge of the Chinese army in the North.

Now the body that had been chopped into several pieces was faintly overlapping with the appearance of the child who was still alive in the room.

"ah--"

He opened his mouth and roared in the night, then raised his knife to chop again, put away the knife, and staggered out.

He mounted his horse and ran all the way until he reached the small prison door near the north gate. He pulled out his knife and tried to rush in, letting the beast inside suffer the greatest pain and then die. However, the policeman guarding outside stopped him, and Mandu

Daru's eyes were red and he looked scary. One or two people couldn't stop him, so the policemen inside came out one by one. Then Gao Puhu also came. Seeing him like this, he probably guessed what happened.

What's up.

A group of people rushed forward and restrained Mandu Daru...

During the long dark night, there was no calm outside the small prison. Mandu Daru's subordinates came one after another in the yamen. Sometimes there were fights and quarrels. Gao Puhu also called more people, and the guards

For the safety of this prison.

At this time, a terrible storm has swept through the upper echelons of power in Yunzhong Mansion. The people below are still unclear. Gao Puhu knows that the God of Grain is probably going to go down, and the same goes for Mandu Daru. In the past, he and Mandu Daru

When Lu confronts him head-on, that's when officials can't give in. Now that his goal has been achieved, looking at Mandu Daru's crazy appearance, he has no intention of turning this matter into an undying personal vendetta. He just wants to make people

Go secretly to find out what happened to the other party's son.

The early morning of April 16th ended, the morning light emerged from the east, and then it was a sunny day with a pleasant breeze. It seemed that the peaceful streets and alleys were still lived as usual by passers-by. At this time, some strange atmosphere and rumors began to penetrate into the middle level.

On April 17, news about "Mrs. Han" betraying information about the West Route Army began to vaguely appear. And in the Yunzhong Mansion Yamen, almost everyone heard about Mandu Daru and Gao Puhu

A wrestling match seemed to be a failure. Many people even knew that Mandu Daru's biological son was made worse than death. Coupled with the rumors about "Mrs. Han", something caught the attention of these keen-sighted people.

In my head, it became unusual.

That afternoon, Gao Puhu, along with several of his subordinates and several Yamen agents who came to him to inquire about information, had dinner at the market opposite the Beimen Small Prison, and he revealed something in private.

"... Damn it, that man is a madman. I only found out the night before yesterday... Damn it, I was fooled. This madman set up a trap before he came to die and fucked Mandu Daru's own son. Now,

That kid is eleven years old and can only use one of his hands. If this were me, I would go crazy..."

He recalled the time when he first caught the other party. Everything seemed normal. After the other party suffered two rounds of punishment, he cried bitterly and opened his mouth, shaking out a lot of evidence. After that, he faced the six Jurchen princes.

, all behaved like a normal and responsible "prisoner". It wasn't until Mandu Daru broke in that Gao Puhu discovered that the prisoner named Tang Minjie was completely abnormal.

"Damn... madman... he's probably a reputable person in the Chinese army... he just came to deliver the knife to the people in the east... He doesn't even want to die..."

He said through gritted teeth and drank.

A catcher next to him said: "If this is the case, this person must know a lot of secrets, and he can dig out more."

"You think I didn't dig it?" Gao Puhu glared at him, "I took him out that night and tortured him for another hour. His eyes... were just crazy. He was a god damn lunatic. Everything was superfluous.

You can't pry it out, he was just faking it when he surrendered."

"Only one hour is not enough..."

"The news he spread has disturbed the gods of the valley. Next, Dongfu will take over, and I will be promoted. If Mandu Daru's son is like that, you also want your son to be like that. This person will have to go to court next, otherwise you

Go in and continue the fight, so that everyone can see your skills?" Gao Puhu said this and took a sip of wine: "Just wait... something big is going to happen."

Big things are happening.

That night, the sound of nervous gongs came from the direction of Yunzhong City Wall, followed by the sound of gongs for city martial law. The troops stationed in the east of Yunzhong Mansion were moving this way.

A tense confrontation was going on at Zong Han's house. Wan Yanchang and several powerful Jurchen princes were present. Zong Bi held up the confession and evidence in his hand and shouted loudly.

"...Come on, Nianhan! It's in Yunzhong Mansion! It's right here! Close the door of the mansion! Do it to all of us one by one! You can keep Xiyin! Otherwise, what happened to him will happen

!The evidence is overwhelming—you can’t justify it no matter where you go—”

"You're sanctimonious! Just for fame! When you go to Beijing, you keep saying it's for the Jurchens! I'll give you one step! When you get to Yunzhong, follow your rules, and I will play with you according to the rules! Now it's your own dirty butts! Come on! Nianhan, you are overbearing

I, you are the boss of the Western Imperial Court! I came to your Yunzhong, I did not lead troops into the city, I entered your house, I did not even wear thick clothes today, you have the guts to protect Xiyin, you should be killed now

I--"

Zong Bi shouted in front of Zong Han for a long time. The veins on Zong Han's forehead were bulging, and he suddenly rushed over. He grabbed the clothes on his chest with both hands and lifted him up. Wan Yanchang and others around him also rushed towards him.

Coming over, the hall was in chaos for a while.

However, until the end, Zong Han could not really beat Zong Bi.

Behind closed doors, he can kill anyone in Yunzhong Mansion. But from now on, the Kingdom of Jin is finished...

***************

"...a big river has wide waves, and the wind blows the fragrance of rice flowers on both sides..."

In the gloomy cell, starlight filtered in through the small window, and songs with strange accents occasionally sounded at night.

After the six Jurchen princes were interrogated together, the situation in Yunzhong Mansion brewed again and fermented for several days. During this period, the four prisoners went through two more court appearances, and even met Nianhan in one of them.

The city experienced martial law once, but it was lifted again the next day. The madman in the innermost circle would sometimes ask "Xiao Gao" about the situation in the outside world. Gao Puhu was used to this kind of offense and would talk about it casually.

Of course, the level he has access to is not high, and sometimes what he sees is the leftovers from the high-level fights.

Although the news that "Mrs. Han" leaked intelligence and led to the failure of the Southern Expedition has spread among the lower levels, there has been no official arrest or imprisonment of Wanyan Xiyin and Chen Wenjun in the past few days, and Gao Puhu is sometimes uneasy

, but the lunatic comforted him: "Don't worry, Xiao Gao, you will definitely be promoted. You have to thank me."

Gao Puhu would also say: "Thank you then."

He hummed the song at night, always looking at the stars in the window, not knowing what he was thinking. Although the other three people in the cell were involved in the incident, they usually didn't dare to mess with him, and no one would do it casually.

Provoke a psychopath with no limits.

When humming the song, he gave people a somewhat relaxed feeling. His thin body was leaning against the wall. He obviously had various injuries on his body, but in such pain, he felt like

It was as if a heavy shackles like a mountain had been removed, and he was waiting for something to come. Of course, since he was a madman, maybe this feeling was just an illusion.

The four prisoners were not transferred because the most critical scene has been completed. Several Jurchen princes have already identified things. Even if all the witnesses are killed, Xi Yin will not be able to escape this accusation.

Of course, the one among the prisoners nicknamed Mountain Dog was always worried about this, fearing that one night someone would set fire to the prison and burn them alive here.

He couldn't sleep every night because of this.

Late that night, he woke up the first time those figures walked into the cell. Several people forced the guards back. The leader was a woman with half-white hair. She picked up the key and opened the innermost room.
To be continued...
