Beiyang new warlord

"It was her! She seduced me! She ordered our ambush General Mao. She also said that as long as General Mao was murdered, she would marry me, and she asked her grandfather to help me find the post of governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It was her plan." Yes, General Mao, I am really forced to do nothing, please, please spare my life!"

His head slammed onto the ground, under the shocked gazes of everyone, Wu Yun, the top scholars in the south of the Yangtze River were begging for their lives like poor people, even Chen Zanzhong had forgotten the imminent danger, and the cup shouted.

"Wu Yun, stand up! You are from the Wu family! How can Wu Zhongning's descendants survive for mere lives? Are you worthy of the ancestors of the Wu family?"

"General Mao, you see, I exposed it, that old guy is scared! It's him, he used his granddaughter to murder you! This forgetful bastard!"

She believed the lie so much that she made it up, desperately grabbing Mao Jue's trouser legs, Wu Yun yelled excitedly while shaking her snot and tears.

To be honest, even Mao Jue was stunned at this scene, but after a while, Mao Jue shook his head with a sneer.

It's no wonder that the Ming Dynasty was subjugated and the scholars who supported this era had broken backbones. Not to mention him, a young scholar who was not yet in his early years, even the leader of Donglin, the well-respected Qian Qianyi didn't have this virtue, When the sky fell, Liu Rushi dragged him to jump into the river and committed suicide. He was too cold, and became a laughingstock through the ages. There was also Ruan Dacheng, Ye Xianggao's favorite disciple, who easily took refuge in Wei Zhongxian when the loot was not evenly distributed. After the collapse of the Nanming Dynasty, many scholar-bureaucrats who clamored to die for their country changed into servants with braids and red hats of the Qing Dynasty.

Daming is not without strength of character, Yan Yingyuan led the anti-Qing Sangong, Jiangyin who did not surrender for 81 days, Zhang Huangyan who fought to the last moment with a sharp mouth as a weapon, and Li Dingguo who devoted himself to protecting the last inch of the Ming territory, they are all the strong bones of the Ming Dynasty , It's a pity that these Donglin Party and scholar-bureaucrats who stand at the top of power but talk endlessly and argue endlessly are not.

How can we save this Daming?

Looking at this young man of aristocratic family who was limp at his feet, Mao Jue felt disheartened for a while, and waved casually at Mao Lian.

Thump~

He was abruptly dragged up by several Liaodong guards, and thrown into a coffin of good-quality nanmu wood. Then, under Wu Xun's fearful eyes, the lid of the coffin was slammed shut. In the garden of the Chen family's backyard, Tie Yijun started digging with a shovel in his hand.

"General Mao! Ancestor Mao! It's really Chen and that bitch who instigated it, please! Please spare the little one!"

His fist was beating on the coffin board, and Wu Yun's voice of despair kept coming from it, but unfortunately, no one sympathized with him even though he was crying and crying.Disturbed by what he heard, several Tieyi soldiers simply covered him with quilts, and his voice suddenly became weaker.

The change tonight was too great. Even an old ghost like Chen Zanzhong who had been in the officialdom for decades was shocked. It wasn't until Wu Xun's voice weakened that he came back to his senses, and his old face became gloomy again, angry shouted.

"Combined with the Japanese pirates and even attacked Hangzhou Mansion, Mao Jue, do you really want to rebel? Aren't you afraid of killing the Nine Clans?"

"Don't talk about this first!"

After sending Wu Yun away, Mao Jue turned his head back with a gloomy face again, speaking gloomily.

"Master Chen, my uncle Shen Guangzuo proposed marriage to the Chen family before, and you agreed! The Chen and Mao families are engaged, is there such a thing?"

Chapter 193. Pig cage, murder

"This"

No matter what the reasons are, I have my own words first, he Chen Zanzhong has indeed broken his promise, and it is not just as simple as breaking his promise. When the decision was still made, the scandal of Wu Yun's affair with Chen Jiao'er was unexpectedly exposed. From the perspective of ethics and law, this woman was out of integrity, and she also tarnished the entire Chen family's lintel.

The Chen family is not a school of Yangming mind who can do whatever they want. Like Hai Rui, they are all traditional Neo-Confucians. How stubborn is Hai Rui's Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism?Just because his ten-year-old daughter took a piece of pancake from a man, he actually starved the daughter to death. Under such circumstances, Mao Jue questioned Chen Zanzhong, and the old man had no way to justify it.

Tonight, with blood, killing, ugliness, and cowardice staining his eyes, Mao Jue's psychology was also darkened to the limit. Chen Zanzhong didn't speak, and he waved his hands with a gloomy face.

Bang~

A large bamboo basket was thrown by the soldiers, and Chen Jiaoer, who had shed two lines of tears because of Wu Yun's sudden betrayal, trembled violently, and then sat limply on the ground.

This is a pig cage!

"Mao has also inquired before that the Wu family treats adulterers by burying men, women! Just according to the folk law, this Wu Yun Mao handles it by himself, this Miss Chen family, Master Chen, you can figure it out! "

With a bang, the heavy nanmu coffin was carried into the big pit dug by several strong men. His Wu family was willing to bury people alive, but when it reached his head, he didn't behave so stubbornly, listening to the shovel pour the soil into the coffin The lid was raised spade after spade, and Wu Yun, who was locked inside, let out a scream like a pig being killed, and the wailing and begging for mercy became extremely intense again.

"Grandpa, don't! Please! Don't!"

She was also horrified to the extreme, looking at Chen Zanzhong's looking eyes, Chen Jiaoer's right fist was trembling to cover her small mouth, her left hand was pressing down on the ground and shrinking back, and the pretty curly hair combing her horns was also not indifferent. He shook his head, his big bright eyes widened to the extreme with fear.

But looking at him silently, and then looking at Mao Jue who was holding his arms full of disdain, for a moment, Chen Zanzhong waved his hand softly.

"Send Miss Sun on her way!"

"No! Grandpa!"

Immediately screaming in fear, the woman hugged Chen Dacheng's leg violently again in horror.

"Daddy save me! Daddy save me!"

But in this family, Chen Zanzhong is the head of the family, looking at his father's gloomy face, even his own daughter, Chen Dacheng remained silent, seeing Chen Jiaoer being pinned to the ground by several clansmen amidst screams, A pair of slender arms were pulled behind and tied up with hemp rope.

The desire to survive was really extremely strong, even if her hands were tied behind her back, her legs were tied together, looking at the pig cage that came over, Chen Jiaoer was still kicking and struggling like a loach.

"I won't go in, save me! Please, uh, uh"

A ball of handkerchiefs finally blocked her small mouth, and several people worked together to stuff her into the pig cage. Under her desperate groaning, the cage was lifted and thrown into it. in the pond.

Amid the sound of splashing water, the cage sank rapidly, and immediately a series of gurgling bubbles rose up from the water.

Looking at the cage still shaking slightly underwater, Mao Jue's mood calmed down a lot unconsciously.

In fact, it has nothing to do with whether a woman is willing to marry him, or even what kind of man she is with. Mao Jue doesn't care at all. Even if the engagement is cancelled, he loses his market and returns to the north. It still doesn't have any effect. Follow his will.

But they shouldn't, they want to die by themselves! And they killed Mao Jue's subordinates, killed Qin Niang, and almost made Su Yi drown in the sea.

Then, leave him alone!The pig cage must have sunk to the bottom. He turned his head and glanced at the Chen family members who seemed to be relieved. A murderous look suddenly appeared on his face, and Mao Jue flicked his sleeve viciously.

"Kill, leave no one behind!"

We share weal and woe, even if tonight is crazy enough, Tie Yijun still raised the bayonet in his hand without hesitation.

"why?"

"My daughter has already sunk into the pond, my Chen family has already lived up to you, and you still want to kill them all?"

The clansmen shrank back in fear and panic, looking in disbelief at the murderous Liao soldiers approaching, Chen Dacheng shouted out angrily and fearfully.

But Mao Jue didn't even turn his head, and Chen Zanzhong wasn't surprised at all, he just stood there with a gloomy expression, looking at the pond.

What was just counted was the grievance between the Chen family and Mao Jue, and the Chen family was in the wrong, so he personally issued an order to sink Chen Jiaoer into the pond. After that, it was a public grievance between them, showing his face in front of him , this Mao Jue is bound to go on a killing spree, and the Chen family will definitely not survive.

The only difference is that the Chen family cleaned up the house and died without guilt.

Tonight was already red-hot, and roaring with bayonets, hundreds of Tieyi soldiers rushed up, seeing that another massacre was about to be staged in the Chen Mansion, but at this time, with an angry roar, they slammed The ferocious murderous aura was broken.

"Stop it all, old man!"

Without Mao Jue's order, it is estimated that Chongzhen came, shouting this voice is useless, however, the murderous soldier stopped the hand that was about to assassinate in astonishment, because the owner of the voice dragged Mao Jue back.

It wasn't some martial arts master who stopped Mao Jue all at once, but an elderly old man, pulling Mao Jue's sleeves, walking into the garden while shouting, seeing the staggering appearance of the general, then The murderous soldier also had to retreat back.

"Brother Chen!"

Pulling Mao Jue to the trembling Chen family members, he first saluted Chen Zanzhong, and then Shen Guangzuo slapped Mao Jue on the face again. In the loud voice, the old man cursed angrily.

"brute!"
