Chapter 504

"She?" Letian and Jiang Fan looked at each other, but they couldn't tell who Tang Yin was referring to.

Tang Yin said faintly: "Yin Rou!" Puff! Letian and Jiang Fan almost choked on their own saliva, and they said in unison: "Princess Yin Rou?" "Yes!" Tang Yin responded, then turned around and smiled at them, saying: "Don't you think it's most appropriate for Her Royal Highness to live in the palace of Feng Kingdom?" This was something Letian and Jiang Fan didn't even dare to think about. The two looked at each other again, swallowed their saliva, and smiled reluctantly, saying: "My Lord... What you said is very true." Feng Kingdom, Yancheng.

Liang Xing finally got his wish to sit on the throne of King Feng under the so-called persuasion of civil and military ministers, but before he could sit on the throne, rumors were spreading inside and outside Yancheng. It is said that Liang Xing cheated the military power of Sanshui Army by the following three lazy means, and in order to eliminate dissidents, he was lawless, successively detained Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun, two important ministers, on trumped-up charges, and massacred ministers who opposed him. In addition, he occupied the palace and raped the concubines of the previous king, etc.

As these rumors spread, Liang Xing's reputation in the eyes of the people took a sharp turn for the worse. People were also talking about it. It was Tang Yin who pacified Zhongtian and annihilated Ningjun, and Liang Xing had no achievements in that series of battles. Is he qualified to be the King of Wind?

Soon these rumors reached Liang Xing. After hearing them, he was furious. His first reaction was to quickly execute Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun, otherwise there would be more troubles. Of course, these two people can't be killed just because they want to. After all, they are traditional dignitaries with high reputations. To kill them, there must be reasonable charges.

Liang Xing soon set his sights on Zhong Tian. Wu Yu was able to use Zhong Tian to frame his trusted ministers, so why didn't he follow Wu Yu's example and use Zhong Tian to frame Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun in turn? Thinking of this, he immediately sent people to the Tianlao to interrogate Zhong Tian, ​​and asked Zhong Tian to admit that Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun had colluded with him.

Zhong Tian was now tortured to the point of being unable to live or die, and no longer in human form. No matter what kind of confession he was asked to write, he was willing to write it, just to die quickly. It was a pity that Zhong Tian, ​​who was so high-spirited and arrogant at the beginning, ended up being slaughtered and used by others.

Liang Xing got the evidence of Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun's crimes from Zhong Tian without much effort. He asked people to exaggerate it, make several copies, and post them all to show the world, and at the same time to tell the people of Fengguo that his detention of Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun was not for nothing.

But just after his notice was posted, rumors arose that Liang Xing had forced Zhong Tian to frame Zhongliang with torture, and there was no other real evidence except for a confession. His purpose was to eliminate dissidents.

Liang Xing was overwhelmed by these rumors that were generated and spread rapidly, but now he could not care about them. In order to consolidate his newly acquired throne, he could only take some tough measures.

A day later, Liang Xing sent someone to post a notice, announcing that the traitor Zhong Tian would be beheaded in public at noon that day. The main reason why he was so anxious to kill Zhong Tian was to make him die without evidence.

On the day of Zhong Tian's execution, there were crowds of people outside the execution ground, and it was estimated that more than 100,000 people came to watch. Although people were dissatisfied with Liang Xing, the new King of Wind, they hated Zhong Tian even more, and they all wanted to see the scene of Zhong Tian being executed with their own eyes.

When Zhong Tian was brought to the execution ground by the soldiers of the Feng Army, people could hardly recognize him. Zhong Tian was disheveled, his hair and beard were all dirty and stuck together, his clothes were ragged, covered with blood and dirt, he looked even worse than a beggar, and he was so thin that he was just skin and bones.

Liang Xing was not polite to Zhong Tian at all. The punishment for his death was to burn him to death, which was the same as the death penalty of lingchi. During the execution, the executioner took out the oilcloth strips prepared in advance and wrapped Zhong Tian from head to toe, leaving only his nostrils for breathing, and then hung him upside down on a high rack, starting from his feet and letting the oilcloth burn to his head little by little. Even if he died, he would die slowly in the burning fire.

When the executioner lit the oilcloth, Zhong Tian immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered, and his bound body, like a mummy, twisted and trembled in the air, and the smell of burnt flesh filled the whole place. It wasn't long before Zhong Tian's feet were burned to black bones, and the fire continued to burn downwards.

The people around the execution ground were a little scared at first, and then everyone's eyes were full of excitement. I don't know who was the first to shout: "Wind!" Then, the people followed and shouted: "Wind, wind, wind?" The shouts continued for a long time.

Liang Xing also came to the execution ground, but he didn't show up. Listening to the shouts of the people, his heart was also surging. Of course, if there could be such a scene when Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun were executed, it would be what he most wanted to see.

After executing Zhong Tian, ​​Liang Xing immediately sent people to collect evidence of Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun's crimes. Now that he was in charge of the overall situation, it was not difficult for him to find some witnesses and material evidence. Three days later, he posted a notice again, announcing the various "crimes" of Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun, and executed Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun at the execution ground seven days later. As for the families of the two, those who should be punished were punished, those who should be punished were punished, and those who should be exiled were exiled.

Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun's family members have all been captured by Liang Xing, and the only one missing is Wu Mei. Wu Mei was rescued by a secret agent and is now placed in Tang Yin's official residence with Qiu Zhen and others. It's not that Liang Xing didn't know about this, he just didn't dare to send anyone to arrest him. When he sent thousands of retainers and servants, they were killed by Shangguan Yuan without even entering the gate of Tang Yin's mansion. Now he is the only one he can rely on. The most important thing is the Sanshui Army in his hand, but if he sends the Sanshui Army there, he is afraid that he will not be able to arrest the person, and Shangguan Yuanrang will be frightened into defecting. He does not dare to take this risk now.

After Liang Xing became king, he invited the backbone of the Tianyuan Army led by Qiu Zhen to attend court meetings several times, but they were all rejected by Qiu Zhen. The attitude of Qiu Zhen and others was very vague. They did not clearly express their opposition to Liang Xing, but they did not Recognizing him as the new king made Liang Xing temporarily give up targeting Qiu Zhen and others, and decided to wait until his power was stabilized before depriving Qiu Zhen and others of their military power bit by bit.

His plan was very good, but how could Tang Yin give him such a long time.

On the day when Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun were to be executed, Tang Yin rushed back to Yancheng with Letian and Jiang Fan.

Now Yancheng is still in a semi-closed state, and people entering and leaving are subject to strict interrogation, and Tang Yin, Letian, and Jiang Fan are no exception.

When they arrived in front of the city gate, there were many people lined up there, and hundreds of soldiers were maintaining order and searching the people one by one. What Liang Xing is most afraid of now is that the Tianyuan Army outside the city sneaks into the city in large numbers and suddenly attacks him, so the soldiers at the city gate mainly search to see if the people are carrying sharp weapons.

Soon, the people in front were inspected one by one. When it was about to be Tang Yin's turn, a man in casual clothes from Sergeant Feng walked towards them. The man looked at Tang Yin, Letian and Jiang Fan with a cold face, then waved and said, "You three, come out!" Letian and Jiang Fan secretly frowned, wondering what this man did. Tang Yin didn't care, strode out, stood in front of the man, and asked with a smile: "Brother, what's the matter?" "What do you do? What's the business of coming to the capital?" The man asked in a cold voice with a gloomy look.

Tang Yin smiled and said, "We are going home." "Going home? Your home is in the capital?" "Yes!" "The accent doesn't sound like it!" The man muttered, and while speaking, he reached out to touch Tang Yin. go.

When Tang Yin saw this, he still had a smile on his face, but a cold light flashed in his eyes. He didn't see how he moved, but he moved about half a meter laterally and moved away the other person's hand that was touching him.

"Huh?" The big man made a surprised voice, looked at Tang Yin strangely, and sneered: "Boy, you are quite good at hiding. I think you came here with ulterior motives and premeditated evil! Someone is coming!" Following him As soon as he heard the words, more than a dozen Feng troops on both sides came over and surrounded Tang Yin, Letian and Jiang Fan.

"Catch the three of them!" the big man commanded as if no one was watching.

Soldier Feng was obedient and followed the Han's order to approach Tang Yin and the others. The two soldiers closest to Tang Yin raised their spears, pressed them against Tang Yin's chest, and shouted: "Don't move, move again, be careful." Swords and guns have no eyesight!" Tang Yin could hold back, but Ke Letian and Jiang Fan didn't have such good tempers. Seeing that the soldiers dared to use swords and guns against Tang Yin, they both shouted, and they both stepped forward and punched at the same time. Hit the two soldiers in the face. The two of them did not use their full strength, but their fists were not something ordinary soldiers could withstand.

The two monsters screamed after being beaten, threw away the spears in their hands, covered their faces and retreated, blood flowing out from the gaps in their fingers.

"Oh! You dare to hurt people!" Several other soldiers roared and charged at Letian and Jiang Fan with spears. However, they were no match for these two men. Letian and Jiang Fan did not even take out their weapons, but only used their fists and kicks to kill ten of them. More than one soldier fell to the ground.

Seeing how powerful they were, the man in casual clothes trembled in his heart and took two steps back in fright. At the same time, he shouted: "Come here! Come here! There are thieves here! Come here quickly..." He hadn't shouted yet. After that, Tang Yin, who was standing on the same spot, suddenly jumped out in two strides and flashed in front of the big man. Before the other party could react, his hands shot out like lightning and grabbed the big man's neck. He tilted his head and asked with a smile. Said: "Who are you, Your Excellency? Since you are not wearing a military uniform, why do you command our soldiers?!"
