Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Page 635

It took several minutes before Zhao Dan calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "Mao Sui!"

Mao Sui didn't dare to neglect, and said loudly: "The minister is here!"

Zhao Dan took the pen and paper, wrote a warrant on it, and then took out his own seal and stamped it heavily.

"Mao Sui, you hold this warrant and ask the Habayashi Army to transfer 500 people to you, and then let the local government cooperate to capture all the people above this confession and bring them back to Handan for interrogation!"

Mao Sui was overjoyed, knowing that Zhao Dan's intention was to bypass Si Kou Zhao Bao and hand over the case directly to Mao Sui.

As long as Mao Sui does this well, it will definitely be an out-and-out great achievement.

So when Mao Sui took the warrant from Zhao Dan, even his voice trembled a little because of excitement.

"Please don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to your high expectations!"

Chapter 624 Zhao Sheng Enters the Palace (Third Change)

Mao Sui's work efficiency can not be said to be fast.

As soon as he came out of the palace, Mao Sui immediately went to the North Camp outside Handan City. A quarter of an hour later, thousands of cavalry from the Habayashi Army drove out of the North Camp, holding torches and dividing into groups in the night.

The next day, the whole of Handan became lively.

As soon as the morning dawned and the gates of Handan were opened, the sound of heavy horseshoes sounded. Hundreds of Zhao Guo's elite Yulin army swept past Handan like a tornado, and instantly surrounded a mansion.

"Open the door, open the door!" The door of the mansion was knocked loudly.

"What are you doing, do you know whose mansion this is, are you looking for death?" The door was opened with a gap, and the porter's scolding sound came from the gap.

Mao Sui sneered and waved his hands vigorously. The two Habayashi Army officers in front of him understood, jumped off the horse, kicked the gate heavily, and kicked the gate open.

Hundreds of cavalry from the Habayashi Army swarmed in on horseback, instantly filling up the courtyard of the entire mansion.

A middle-aged man who seemed to be the owner of the mansion appeared in front of Mao Sui, his clothes were a little disheveled, obviously he just got up from the bed.

"Who are you, why did you break into my mansion?"

Mao Sui laughed and said, "You are the doctor Guo Cheng?"

"Exactly! Who are you?"

Mao Sui snorted, and said: "I am Mao Sui, the deputy chief inspector and guard. According to the information, Ru Guocheng is suspected of having ties to foreign countries. Come with me!"

Guo Cheng's body was shocked, and he screamed: "I am the doctor of Zhao Guo. If I want to arrest you, I will talk about the subordinates of the Si Kou. When will you let you, the dog leg of the surveillance guard, come to arrest people?"

"Dog leg?" Mao Sui sneered slightly, and said, "That's much better than a traitor like you, come here, tie up this Guo Cheng, and then search the mansion carefully to see if you can do it." What new evidence has been found!"

Guo Cheng wanted to yell and curse, but the Habayashi army nearby had already swarmed up and knocked Guo Cheng down, and then tied them tightly.

By noon, an astonishing news had spread throughout Handan City.

Mao Sui, the deputy head of the surveillance guards, spent a whole morning arresting all sixteen doctors, three lower ministers and one middle minister of Zhao State into the surveillance guards, and even killed hundreds of them on the spot. Rebels.

"Crazy, this Mao Sui is completely crazy!" After Xiangbang Zhao Sheng heard the news, his whole body was in a hurry, chanting such words back and forth.

In front of Zhao Sheng, more than a dozen ministers of Zhao State looked terrified, and said to Zhao Sheng repeatedly: "Mr. Pingyuan, now only you can stop Mao Sui's perverse actions. Please also ask Mr. Pingyuan to stand up for us." ah!"

These Zhao Guo ministers present are basically the backbone of Zhao Guogong's clan faction, mainly belonging to Zhao Sheng's cronies.

And those who are arrested now are mainly Zhao Bao's cronies, but no matter whether it is Zhao Sheng or Zhao Bao, they are all members of the public faction, so these ministers naturally have a feeling of cold lips and teeth, and they are too busy He ran to find Zhao Sheng for help.

Zhao Sheng frowned when he heard the words of these ministers.

So many ministers of the Gongzu faction were all arrested, how could Zhao Sheng, as the leader of the Gongzu faction, remain indifferent.

Zhao Sheng thought about it for a while, hesitated and struggled for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"No, come here, prepare the chariots and horses, I want to go to the palace immediately to meet the king!"

Things have come to this point, it is impossible not to go to the palace in person.

When sitting on the carriage, Zhao Sheng was somewhat panicked.

This time the storm seems to be aimed at the Gongzu faction, but Pang Nuan, one of the three giants of the Gongzu faction, is currently fighting in the country of Yan, Zhao Bao has been suspended at home, and only Zhao Sheng is facing this storm alone. It's raining.

If it was normal, Zhao Sheng would be able to see Zhao Dan immediately as soon as he entered the palace, but this time, Zhao Sheng waited in the side hall for half an hour before he got the chance to go to the palace.

When seeing Zhao Dan, Zhao Sheng accidentally found another person, this person was none other than Mao Sui who made the whole Handan into chaos.

Zhao Dan seemed to be giving Mao Sui some instructions, and when he saw Zhao Sheng coming in, he waved to Mao Sui, indicating that Mao Sui could go out.

When Mao Sui turned around and walked past Zhao Sheng, he smiled at Zhao Sheng.

For some reason, when Zhao Sheng looked at Mao Sui, he always had the feeling of being watched by a wolf.

After Mao Sui left, this burning feeling finally disappeared.

Zhao Dan rubbed his temples, smiled at Zhao Sheng, and said, "Mr. Pingyuan, I have some things to be busy with, but I kept you waiting for a long time. Well, you must have come here today to arrest Mao Sui. Bar?"

Zhao Sheng's heart was slightly shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is wise, this minister is here for this matter. Now that Mao Sui is arresting people everywhere, many ministers are extremely terrified, and the people in the city are panic-stricken. I dare to ask your majesty to order Mao Sui immediately stopped arresting people to avoid chaos."

Zhao Dan took a deep look at Zhao Sheng. This kind of look is extremely rare in Zhao Dan's body. It made Zhao Sheng's heart beat violently involuntarily, and he couldn't say anything after that.

Zhao Sheng lowered his head, not daring to meet Zhao Dan's gaze.

After a long while, Zhao Dan said slowly, "Perhaps Lord Pingyuan doesn't know why the widow makes such a big fight and let Mao Sui arrest him?"

Zhao Sheng hurriedly said: "I really don't know."

Zhao Dan shook his head, pointed to the thick stack of papers on the table and said: "You can take a look at these confessions."

Zhao Sheng responded, then took the confessions, and walked aside to read them.

Looking at it, Zhao Sheng's complexion also began to change, from surprise at the beginning to anger, and then to paleness.

One thing is explained in all the confessions here, that is, represented by Guo Kai and Miao Mo, a group of Zhao Guo's middle and high-level officials and supervisory officials have formed a huge interest unknowingly. The group, through large-scale smuggling, secretly eroded Zhao's interests, just to fill their own pockets!

What makes Zhao Sheng even more cold sweat is that a large part of the list of confessions in this confession are ministers and officials from the Gongzu faction. Is the hardest hit area of ​​the enemy.

At the end, even though Zhao Sheng had been in the political arena of Zhao State for decades and was used to countless storms and waves, his hand holding the confession began to tremble at this moment.

Lord Pingyang, Lord Pingyang, what kind of mess have you left for me!

Chapter 625 Final Verdict (Fourth Change)

"Now you should understand, Mr. Pingyuan." Zhao Dan's calm voice rang in Zhao Sheng's ear: "Tell me, in the face of such a situation, should the widow directly arrest him, or should he simply let him go?" What about self-flow?"

Although the voice was calm, Zhao Sheng was still keenly aware of the traces of anger contained in the deepest part of Zhao Dan's voice.
