Daming heir

Chapter 249 Please die
The sign engraved with the words Ruzhen in person is too scary.

Jin Yiwei at the gate of the yamen couldn't bear to think too much, even if the other party wanted to rush into the yamen by himself and kill the commander at this time, he didn't dare to have any doubts.

He even wondered if he would get a Tongzhi, Zhenfu, Qianhu and other high-ranking officials later if he slashed.

Tiqi bowed his body, his posture was so humble that outsiders could see it: "What are you going to do? Can you tell the commander to come here?"

Gao Yangzhi kept his head down all the time, he was very unwilling to reveal his identity as a secret guard, so he just whispered: "Go to prison."

Not many words, only three words.

Jin Yiwei Tiqi, who is leading the way here, has already imagined a grand narrative conspiracy in his mind.

It seems that there is no hope of being a thousand households.

Tiqi walked ahead with his head down.

After a while, the two appeared in the courtyard of a locust tree with a fallen leaf.

The bare branches of the locust tree, even in today's sunny weather, seem so abrupt, and it is so gloomy that people can always think of many bad things.

It is very unlucky for normal people to plant pagoda trees in their own yards.But when it comes to the stories about ghosts and ghosts, those people always have a few deciduous locust trees.

This is very unreasonable, but people can always actively help the author imagine a gloomy scene that the author cannot describe when they see this word.

But Gao Yangzhi thought it was very good to plant locust trees in Jinyiwei.

Here, ghosts are far less scary than people.

Looking at the dark steps going down in front of me, there are bursts of gray disgust coming out of it, and people who get a little closer can feel the hairs, and there is a biting cold feeling.

This is probably the imperial prison of Jinyiwei.

Gao Yangzhi turned his head and glanced at Tiqi, who was already sideways waiting beside him: "Today's matter."

Tiqi immediately looked around, there were not many people in the yamen at this time, he nodded immediately and said in a low voice: "I have never seen the envoy coming, the prison is dark, only a few dazzled old officials are waiting for the prisoner today, Don’t worry about going on a business trip.”

As he spoke, Tiqi cautiously lowered his head and exited the locust tree yard.

Gao Yangzhi shook his head and smiled coldly.

Once things are done, it is impossible to leave no traces, but tomorrow is Hongwu's 25-year Enke test, and even if it is revealed in a few days that I have arrived today, it is no longer an important matter.

Bending down and walking into the dark steps, Gao Yangzhi felt that he was descending into the abyss of hell. If Arita Mai hadn't sent the token that was now placed in his intimate place, there would be too much... With what Sun said, he was very reluctant to come to Jinyiwei Prison by himself.

I am a person who wants to walk in the Wenhua Palace.

This subject will take the exam, and I also recorded my name.

It's just that as a secret guard, he can't help him to think about these things.

I also definitely can't let Mr. Xie know about this matter. Although he is my husband, some things are better to be hidden in the darkness and slowly rot away like some people and things in this prison. is the best.

Finally, Gao Yangzhi got used to the cold surroundings and was able to straighten his back.

Not far away, in front of a table were a few old officials who had been in the prison all year round to do the work of repairing people, bending their waists, and lying on a rotten wooden table.

On the table and on the ground were a few wine jars that were discarded at will.

Today Jin Yiwei dragged the last ten scholars who had fought in front of the Book and Newspaper Bureau three months ago to Baihu Street in front of the Yamen and executed them with sticks.

At this moment, Gao Yangzhi could vaguely hear the groans of those people in the darkness.

According to Jin Yiwei's explanation to the court a few days ago, all the more than a thousand scholars who were locked in the prison will be released before dark today.

Many of them are going to participate in tomorrow's Enke examination. Jin Yiwei is a law-abiding yamen, and will never do anything to hinder the imperial court from taking talents from all over the world.

Although there were some slander in the court, and even many people kept giving memorials these days, the emperor hadn't gone to court to deal with state affairs for three months. It seemed that the studies at Dahontang were far more important than state affairs.

All the memorials that were presented were all kept by the grandson.

This made the officials in the imperial court who were still thinking about saving more than a thousand scholars here feel like they had punched the quilt with one fist.

Under the premise that the military did not support it, and they were even secretly happy, and the civil servants could not unify their voices, those people gradually seemed to have forgotten the people in Jinyiwei's yamen.

After all, there are still thousands of candidates in Yingtian City who are really going to participate in the examination tomorrow.

Gao Yangzhi counted the windows in one side of the cage, which were not as big as the light, from one to seven, and finally stopped in his tracks.

"Tang Keke."

The sound was very small, covered up by the groans around and the bites of those insects, and never spread out.

Gao Yangzhi stood in front of the cage, looking at the dark cage calmly.

He seemed very calm, never overly eager.

Slowly, there was a fumbling sound of shuttle in the cage.

A hoarse voice took a deep breath of the turbid air in the prison that seemed to have been frozen for decades.

Snapped.

A pair of hands came out from the darkness and grabbed the cage fence in front of Gao Yangzhi.

Afterwards, Tang Keke's cheeks that had never lost weight but were much paler were revealed.

Probably exposed to the light from the darkness, Tang Keke squinted his eyes, scanned left and right vaguely, and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"

"Stay high."

Gao Yangzhi responded and squatted down.

Tang Keke murmured in a low voice: "High Yangzhi?"

Then, under Gao Yangzhi's gaze, his eyes gradually became clear.

"Stay high!"

"It turned out to be you!"

Tang Keke, who had recovered his eyesight, looked at Gao Yangzhi who appeared in front of his eyes, and shouted in a low voice with surprise on his face.

"Shut up." Gao Yangzhi reminded in a low voice with a solemn face, and under Tang Keke's slowly becoming puzzled eyes, he continued: "The third master asked me to come."

"Third Master?"

Tang Keke muttered in confusion, then his eyes burst into a bright light, and then he stared at Gao Yangzhi: "You are a member of the dark guard!"

Gao Yangzhi nodded as a response to this question.

Tang Keke smiled slightly, with an ambiguous expression on his face, then turned around with his hands on the ground, and leaned his back against the fence.

"Shouldn't tomorrow be the test day?"

Gao Yangzhi nodded: "Yes tomorrow."

"Presumably, you are a member of the secret guard, and you don't know about it. So you came to look for me today, and you don't know about it."

Gao Yangzhi hesitated for a while, and finally nodded silently: "Sir, I don't know."

Tang Keke took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly.

He turned his head and glanced at Gao Yangzhi: "Let me guess, Enke will try it tomorrow, and the third master will definitely do it this time. The size of the bait you throw is the size of the fish you catch.

The third master wanted to let his master's knowledge spread to the world once and for all, and Hongwu's 25-year Enke examination would be a tragedy.

There can be no slander in the court, let alone in the world.

Therefore, the third master needs a reason, an excuse. "

Speaking of this, Tang Keke turned around abruptly, grasped the two fences in front of him tightly with both hands, and stared fixedly at Gao Yangzhi.

He said word by word: "So, the third master needs me to die!"

Gao Yangzhi bowed his head indifferently, and took out a kraft paper bag from his sleeve.

It's a small, square piece with a little bulge in the middle.

"After taking it, there will be bruises on the body, which can be explained as being beaten to death. The medicine works quickly and there will be no pain."

After Gao Yangzhi explained, he stuffed the medicine bag between Tang Keke's fingers.

Then, he stood up slowly, waved his sleeves with both hands, and bowed in respect.

"Please go to your death!"

Tang Keke stared at the medicine bag in his hand, and smiled silently, touching his cheeks.

He stood up with some unsteady steps, took a deep look at Gao Yangzhi outside the cage, nodded, just stared at Gao Yangzhi like this, retreated step by step, and the whole person fell into the darkness.

Gao Yangzhi's mouth twitched a few times.

His eyes were fixed on the depths of the cage that he couldn't see clearly.

"Straight thief!"

"Eternal Prosperity of Great Ming Dynasty!"

With a bang, Tang Keke's burly body in the darkness fell heavily to the ground.

Hearing the sound, Gao Yangzhi exhaled a long breath, and took out a key from his pocket.

From the deepest part of the prison, open the cages, including the cage where Tang Keke was imprisoned alone.

After finishing all this, Gao Yangzhi quickly walked to the gate of the imperial prison, lowered his head and bent his waist, and roared into it.

"Let him go!"

Immediately, Gao Yangzhi stepped back quickly, and arrived at the wall of the locust tree courtyard, brought over several wooden boxes and objects that could be used as a foothold, stacked them together, and climbed up.

Gao Yangzhi clasped the courtyard wall with both hands, and with a strong foot, the footings below were kicked over, and people came up to the courtyard wall, and then several cats hid themselves in the eaves, looking from In the darkness, he stared at the gate of the imperial prison below.

Time passed by drop by drop, as if it was falling on Gao Yangzhi's heart.

Finally, cheers and countless footsteps came from the prison.

"Grandpa is finally out!"

"When I try to be on the list tomorrow, I will definitely impeach Jin Yiwei!"

"Let's go back first and talk about the recent guessing questions!"

With a bang, several disciples of Neo-Confucianism who had been imprisoned for three months rushed out of the imperial prison.

However, it is also at this time.

From outside the locust tree courtyard, a group of Jinyiwei Tiqi, who were armed with embroidered spring knives, rushed in.

Sun Cheng glanced across the entire locust tree courtyard, glanced at the wooden boxes in a mess under the corner, and immediately pressed down with his big hand.

"The prisoner broke into and escaped from the prison, Jin Yiwei took it down immediately!"

"Whoever dares to disobey, beheaded first and then played, kill without mercy!"

Following Sun Cheng's order, the Jinyi guards who followed him like tigers and wolves drew out their Xiuchun knives one after another, and surrounded the dozens of candidates who had just walked out of the prison.

"I was released by your Jin Yiwei at that time!"

"I can't wait!"

"Is Jin Yiwei trying to disregard human lives?"

There was an angry child, facing the Jin Yiwei around him, questioning angrily.

Sun Cheng's face was gloomy: "Jinyiwei always pays attention to the rules. Before the time comes, even the king of Hades will come, and he will never want to take your life away. It's not time to be released from prison today, so you dare to break out of prison privately. The crime is an accomplice. , dare to talk nonsense, kill!"

"kill!"

A group of guards in brocade clothes rode with murderous aura.

The disciples were naturally not happy, they just felt that Jin Yiwei was teasing them.

"You Jinyiwei, disregarding human life, disregarding the king's law, we are going to go out today, and you are running dogs like..."

Bang!
Jin Yiwei's deputy, Qianhu Sun Cheng, didn't give this person a chance to finish his sentence at all, stepped forward with a scabbard, and slammed it heavily on this person's chest.

That child is usually delicate and tight, except for the ten sticks a few days ago, how could he have suffered such a crime, he immediately clasped his chest with his hands in pain, and fell to the ground.

The surrounding Jinyiwei also began to press forward step by step.

Those scholars, seeing that Jin Yiwei didn't look like a fake, but really dared to kill people, could only keep roaring angrily, but they were forced back into the imperial prison step by step.

After a while, several old officials shouted for grievances in the imperial prison.

Then, there were several screams.

Hiding under the eaves, Gao Yangzhi slowly held his breath.

I saw Sun Cheng walking in front with a livid face and leaving the prison. Behind him were two guards in brocade clothes, one in front of the other, carrying Tang Keke out with his eyes closed.

At this time, more Jinyiwei officials rushed over from outside the Huaishu courtyard.

Jin Yiwei Commander Jiang Yu was the first to arrive at the scene.

He glanced suspiciously at Sun Cheng who was standing in front of the imperial prison, and then looked at Tang Keke's corpse which was placed on the ground.

Jiang Yu's face gradually became serious.

He waved his hand, and immediately several Jinyiwei officials stepped forward to check on Tang Keke's situation.

Sun Cheng bowed and cupped his fists and walked in front of Jiang Yu.

"Reporting to the commander, today the prison inmates were ordered to eat wine under the watchful eyes of the officials and break into the prison without permission. They have all been driven back to the prison by the subordinate officials. It's just that the subordinate officials came late, resulting in Juren Tang Keke being beaten to death by the prisoners privately. If the official is incompetent, please ask the commander to punish him."

Jiang Yu's face became more and more gloomy, and he stared at Sun Cheng for a while, but didn't speak.

At this time, the officials who went to check the situation stripped off the clothes on Tang Keke's arms, first took the pulse, and then checked the body surface.

Afterwards, a person came to Jiang Yu.

"Reporting to the Commander, what Deputy Sun Qianhu said is true. Juren Tang Keke has been beaten to death by prisoners in the imperial prison, with bruises on his body and traces of internal injuries."

Jiang Yu snorted coldly, then waved his hands helplessly: "Send the corpse out of the city and find a place to bury it."

Then, he looked at Sun Cheng.

Sun Cheng's expression froze, he folded his fists and bowed his head: "The lower officials have neglected their duties and came too late. I have to kill those officials who were drunk and made mistakes."

Jiang Yu let out a long sigh: "Forget it, it seems that today the official can't let these students go. It's just killing a few people. It's a great achievement for Sun Qianhu to stop the prisoner who broke out of prison today."

Sun Cheng just bowed his head and pleaded guilty.

Jiang Yu waved his hands and turned around: "I want to sit in Jinyiwei, you go to the palace and report."
