Chapter 166 I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go

Li Er and Chai Shao didn't know that Luoyang, the eastern capital, had caused an uproar.

The matter started seven or eight days ago, when the guards guarding the palace wall suddenly found out.In the evening, countless bats suddenly landed on the palace wall, and they couldn't be driven away.These little things don't look for food at night, they lie on the palace wall and gnaw non-stop.I found the captain, but I didn't expect the captain to be shocked when he saw it.Those bats just happened to form characters one by one on the palace wall, such a big event cannot be concealed.

Just two days later, two stone statues broke through the ground at the gate of Luoyang City.The shape of the stone statue is simple and simple, but within three or two days, the whole head is exposed.And, it seems to be growing upwards every day.According to folklore, the stone statue will grow as long as it is watered.I've only heard of such a miracle in Buddhism, but I didn't expect it to grow on the edge of Luoyang City.

Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, was curious and impatient, waiting for the stone statue to grow out of the ground.Send people to dig up the soil and transport the stone statue back to the palace.When he saw the words on the stone statue, Yang Guang was taken aback, and smashed the stone statue to pieces with a sledgehammer.

It is written on the stone statue that the Jade Emperor was originally surnamed Zhang, and he descended to the mortal world to punish Sui Yang.The heroes of the world show their great ambitions, and the emperor sits in the golden throne in Yanggu.

On another stone statue, Yang Guang's crimes are enumerated.Killing brothers, killing fathers, butchering sisters-in-law, whores...!All the behaviors of animals are basically written in full.And it is written with nose and eyes, as if you saw it with your own eyes.

Rumors grew wildly like weeds, and within a day there were children on the street singing them.The Jade Emperor's original surname was Zhang, and he descended to the mortal world to punish Sui Yang.The heroes of the world show their great ambitions, and the emperor sits in the golden throne in Yanggu.The children were ignorant, and the adults in the family were so frightened that they almost went crazy.I wanted to stop it, but I couldn't stop the imperial army.Under cross-examination, it was said that a beggar with a Shandong accent taught him.

The whole city searched for beggars with a Shandong accent, and five or six hundred were caught.Emperor Sui Yang was not in the mood to identify them one by one, and ordered hundreds of people to fall to the ground.The killing was so severe that people's heads rolled, the blood on the ground at Caishikou lasted for several days, and flies flew all over the sky.

When something like this happened, Yang Guang naturally wanted to find his right-hand man.Wen has Yang Su, and Wu has Yu Wenshu.The two had also heard rumors in the world, but they had just entered the palace.I heard something even more miraculous, right on the city wall of Luoyang.Thousands of ants form a huge Chinese character.From a distance, it seems to be hanging on the city wall.

People from far and near have seen a flood of people, and there is a tendency to continue to expand.The folks were aroused by these miracles, and various rumors about Yang Guang's arrangements were flying all over the sky.There are some stories that Yang Guang listens to are evil.

"What should I do? What should I do? In broad daylight, someone actually spread rumors about your father. The public opinion in the world is surging. If someone with a heart takes advantage of this to make trouble, what should we do?" Yang Guang was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, in the open space circles in the palace.Yang Su and Yu Wenshu could only watch, it was better not to bother the emperor who ran away.

"You guys are pushes, tell me what to do!" Going violently couldn't solve the political problem, so Yang Guang had to find the two of them to solve it in the end.

"The Jade Emperor's surname is Zhang, which has long been confirmed by folklore." Yang Su said cautiously, seeing that Yang Guang's eyes were unfriendly.Immediately omit the last two sentences, and jump directly to the emperor sitting in the golden throne in Yanggu. "The emperor sits in the golden throne in Yanggu. The literal meaning seems to be that he sits in the golden palace in Yanggu County. I just don't know if there is a big family named Zhang in Yanggu County. Small households can't do such a thing." .

But you also have to consider whether someone framed it.How can there be rebels who expose themselves to the court before they start an incident.Your Majesty, don't let someone take advantage of you! "

After Yang Su finished speaking, Yang Guang's face became more gloomy.He doesn't care if someone rebels, as long as he has soldiers in his hand, he can kill them.What he cares about is the things said on the stone statue.He's done most of them, and he's generally not bad at what he says.This is what scares him the most, how can the darkest side of a person be exposed to the public.

Now that rumors are rampant in the capital, the most important thing is to keep people's mouths shut.Killing those hundreds of beggars is deterrent.But on the surface it is blocked, corners and corners, how can you block the couple's night talk.Could it be that you still want to send the forbidden army to every household?That is really self-defeating!King Zhou Li's lesson is a lesson for the past!
How shrewd Yu Wenshu is, he can see through Yang Guang's mind at a glance.I sighed secretly in my heart: Yang Su was old after all his tricks.It seemed that the Yang family was about to fall like a meteor.

"Duke Yue's words are wrong! This kind of thing must not be tolerated. Even if it is someone else's knife, the source of the rumor must be strangled in the bud. Otherwise, ambitious people will stand on their own. There are some foolish men and women among the people, and they just believe in this." Yu Wenshu said while stealing a look at Yang Guang.Sure enough, the eyes that saw Yang Guang were also looking at him.I was overjoyed, it seemed that I was right this time.

"Keep talking!" Seeing Yu Wenshu stop, Yang Guang immediately urged.

"Now, we should immediately inform the backer Yang Lin in eight hundred miles. In Yanggu County, Shandong Province, as long as they are surnamed Zhang, especially the big ones, they should be arrested together. The mastermind behind the scenes should be tortured and executed regardless of whether they are recruited or not. In this matter, I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, Your Majesty should send a strict decree to the King of the Backer. Never lenient the loan!"

Yu Wenshu knew that his idea would set off a bloodbath in Yanggu County.Anyone with the surname Zhang will be included in the massacre.But the Yang family is going to be lonely soon, and the Yuwen family wants to continue to be brilliant.He can only use the blood of these people to please the emperor and dye his red cap.A powerful family has always only cared about its own development.Who would care about the life and death of a group of strangers thousands of miles away in Shandong.

"Your Majesty! This matter is unavoidable. I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Yu Wenshu, do you know how many people with the surname Zhang in Yanggu have. That will cause blood...!" Yang Su didn't expect Yu Wenshu to be so ruthless , I just wanted to say a few words.But seeing Yang Guang's wolf-like eyes, he held the rest of the words in his stomach for a while.

Obviously, the emperor liked Yu Wenshu's idea very much.

"Your Majesty's holy candle is shining, and His Majesty still decides on this matter. Veteran, do your best!" Yang Su cried out in his heart, and hurriedly bowed to salute.

"No need, leave this matter to General Yuwen. I'm tired, go back to rest. Yuwenshu, remember what you said. It's better to kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. The family of Zhang Yanggu, stay One chicken and one dog. I, you are the only one asking."

"No! In Yanggu County, stones go too far, houses go too far. As long as the surname is Zhang, chickens and dogs will not be left behind." Yu Wenshu bowed in response, feeling sorry for the Zhang family in Yanggu County, Shandong.A catastrophe is about to come!
Where did Li Er, Chai Shao and the others know about this in Licheng County, they watched God Yunhao walking around all day long.The owner looked at the West family and asked him how he did it.This guy talked about him from left to right, saying for a while that the weather is really nice, and for a while he said that the moon is really round today.Damn, where does the moon come from in broad daylight?Li Er was so angry that he kicked over the case!

The news came one after another, and Hou Junji was so busy all day long that he kept running back and forth to inquire about the news.

"What? The king of the mountain led his troops to kill all the people surnamed Zhang in Yanggu County?" Hou Junji's eyes widened, and he stared at the servant of the government office in disbelief.My goodness, the surname Zhang is a common surname.There are at least a few thousand people with the surname Zhang in a county.Does this mean killing all?He was very suspicious that this servant was coaxing himself for money.

"Master Hou, how dare I coax you. The imperial court specially sent Tianbao General Yuwen Chengdu to imprison him, and he brought all the forbidden soldiers from the Eastern Capital called Xiaoguo. The smoke and dust raised by the horse team on the road can be seen from ten miles away. They searched from house to house, and killed every one they saw. From 80-year-old old ladies to confinement babies, they never let go. It is said that even the livestock in the family did not escape. That is a tragedy. !"

Yuwen Chengdu just killed but didn't bury him, and the work of burying people was left to the local guards.For the tragic scene at that time, the guard saw it with his own eyes, and now thinking about it, his face is still pale with fright.

"I heard that there is a big family in Yanggu County, who seems to be related to the backer king. Even his family has suffered?" Hou Junji hurriedly asked what happened to the culprit. What Yunhao did was a failure.

"Don't talk about being married to the king of the mountain, even if you are married to the king of Hades. If the court orders you to kill him, you will die. You don't know that Zhang Dahu's family died the worst. His family is one of the best in Yanggu County, a servant of a thousand hectares of fertile land. Hundreds of people. None of them escaped, and the babies in confinement had to fall to their deaths from trees with their calves in their hands.

That big household was split into three sections, and my brother collected the corpse.The yard was full of dead bodies, piled up like a hill.The blood soaked the soil, and a stream of blood would come out when you stepped on the ground.The whole family has hundreds of people, just pour oil on fire and burn it.The entire Zhang family mansion was burned to the ground.

I heard that the sage said that as long as there is a person with the surname Zhang in Yanggu County.People's heads are overdone, houses overheated, and chickens and dogs are spared.Now the Zhang family's mansion has been reduced to a ghost, and even beggars who have nowhere to live are unwilling to go there. "

"Uh...! Thank you, big brother, it's just a small thing." Hou Junji took out his money bag, handed it to the guard, and left without looking back.

It was so fucking shocking, and I don't know how Yunhao did it.Actually let the saint of today speak, and slaughtered the entire Yanggu County surnamed Zhang.I'm afraid that all people surnamed Zhang in Shandong are living in fear.I'm afraid that that day, His Majesty the Emperor will expand the scope of the attack.The most unlucky ones are those family members surnamed Zhang in Yanggu County, who didn't know that they violated the king's law until their death.

When Hou Junji saw Li Er, Li Er was holding a letter and trembling.Chai Shao next to him didn't look good, and Changsun Wuji sat beside him with a gloomy face.The atmosphere in the hall was very strange.

"Second master, Yanggu...!" Hou Junji bit the bullet and wanted to report, but was stopped by Li Eryang.

"I know, you go and call Boy Yun over. See what he has done?" Li Er slapped the letter on the table with a "snap".Hou Junji was so frightened that he immediately ran to the backyard and pulled Yun Hao over.No one can provoke Li Er who is in a rage.

"Second Master, are you looking for me?" Yun Hao didn't know what he had committed, so Hou Junji rushed to the back house to pick himself up and left.It was as if there was a wolf chasing after him!
"Tell me, what did you do? That big family killed your brother, and the people named Zhang in Yanggu County are so innocent. All the people surnamed Zhang in Yanggu County were slaughtered. Do you know that there are 780 people in this county?" If you count the innocent victims, no less than 5000 people were massacred in Yanggu County. This is the result you want!" Li Er said angrily, and turned the case over.The fruit and tea cups on it spilled all over the floor, and none of the servants outside dared to come in to clean them up.Everyone was terrified like a plague chicken, huddled in the corner and poked their heads.

"What?" Yun Hao was taken aback by this number, he just wanted to mess with Zhang Dahu.For Mao, everyone surnamed Zhang in Quanyanggu County is unlucky!
"You just rely on your exquisite heart to do evil. You know that this time the trouble was bloody and bloody. Even my father sent a special letter to ask what's going on!" Li Er pointed at Yun Hao, his fingers fluttered like a stroke. shake.In other words, Yunhao was too young, he didn't dare to do it.With such a small body, Li Er can kick him to pieces with one punch.

"More than 5000 people... have been killed?" Yun Hao swallowed dryly, his mouth was so dry.In an instant of saliva, he ran away without a trace.

"I just asked Brother Chu and Uncle Chu to carve a stone statue and bury it under the city wall, and then smear the eel's blood on the palace wall and draw a character. It is also written as a character Zhang. But I just wanted to use the hands of a sage to kill Zhang Dahu, but I didn’t expect that everyone with the surname Zhang in Quanyanggu County would suffer.”

Yun Hao squatted on the ground with his head in his arms. More than 5000 people died because of his one idea.He didn't know how the nobles behaved in this year, and if they wanted revenge.It will not target specific people, but draw a circle in one place and then strike indiscriminately.When it comes to things like gods, gods, and ghosts, all dynasties have always adhered to the attitude that they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.In Yang Guang's view, this kind of suppression is nothing more than normal.

This is an era of superstition and sword rule, full of blood and violence.Human life is worthless in these days.

"That's all you did?" Chai Shao asked in surprise.He couldn't figure it out, he just smeared some blood and sugar water or something.How could there be such a big consequence?

"Eel's blood is the bloodiest, and bats will lie on it and lick it when they smell it. Whatever characters you write, those bats will naturally form the words. Ants like sugar the most, so they use sugar water to brush on the city wall. Ants will naturally cling to it , Naturally, whatever characters you write, they form what characters. I really didn't expect that a saint would be so cruel." Yun Hao couldn't even cry, thinking of more than 5000 lives.He felt that the world was spinning.Thousands of hands seemed to come out of the ground, trying to drag him into the endless hell.

"That's it...!" Li Er and Chai Shao looked at each other, talking about killing people these days.It's really faster to play with brains than with knives, this kid has such an idea.In just ten days, more than 5000 people were killed.Really staggering!
