Sirius felt that his facial bones were painful from being pressed, but he still gritted his teeth and laughed sinisterly.
"I will never tell you where the gunpowder comes from!"
After saying that, he looked at Pei Xiuyan jokingly and said in a strange tone:
"Pei Xiuyan, I lost my life today, but I will be a good man again in eighteen years. So what if you win the Tianlang Village? It's not just a cuckold's head tilted, your mother-in-law is sleeping with the young master of the Wu family. We spent the night together on pillows.”
Pei Xiuyan's face turned dark instantly.
Sirius was still provoking him.
"You and I are both men. Do you think the young master of the Wu family is Liu Xiahui?"
"Kill me if you have the ability. As long as I am alive, I will make your mother-in-law's story known to the world. Even if my mouth cannot speak, my hands can still write."
"You didn't see that your mother-in-law and the young master of the Wu family were surrounded by my people. They were still pushing and pushing each other, both wanting to keep the other alive. I helped them on the spot and let them do something underground. To the wild mandarin ducks.”
Pei Xiuyan knew that this was Tianlang's method of provoking generals.
There were countless things in the prison of Dali Temple in Kyoto that made life worse than death. Tianlang encouraged himself to kill him so that he would not have to return to the capital for interrogation.
Pei Xiuyan tried hard to control his emotions and not let himself think about what Sirius said, but the more he controlled, the more uncomfortable he became.
He seemed to see Ye Chuyan and Wu Mu lying on the bed making love. This image flashed crazily in his mind, disturbing his breath.
Sirius was still chattering.
"I heard that your mother-in-law's beautiful feet were seen at the palace banquet on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. She was originally a pair of shabby shoes. It's a pity that I didn't play with her. I don't know what it's like to play with your mother-in-law's beautiful feet..."
These words ignited all the anger in Pei Xiuyan's body.
Regarding the barefoot sword dancing at the palace banquet, he blocked everyone's speech, but could not block the evil thoughts in people's hearts. He pretended that the matter had already passed, but in fact he was deceiving others.
This incident weighed on his heart like a sore.
In this situation, he was exposed naked by Sirius.
As if that wasn't enough, Sirius added obscenely.
"Your mother-in-law's beautiful feet have been seen by others, even if she is played by Young Master Wu, it doesn't matter..."
"Shut up!" With a roar, a huge wave of anger rushed down from Pei Xiuyan's head, and he crushed Sirius's facial bones with his foot.
Sirius's face was bloody and bloody, and he died on the spot. All that was left was a pair of wide, bulging eyes, which still retained the posture of looking at Pei Xiuyan just now, and there seemed to be a contemptuous smile in them.
Pei Xiuyan went crazy and trampled Tianlang's face into flesh. At first, the eyes merged with the flesh, making it impossible to tell the difference between you and me.
When Shi Lu heard Pei Xiuyan's roar outside, he was a little worried, "Guard Yan, do you want to go in and take a look?"
Yan Che's face was expressionless, "No need."
A bandit like Tianlang, even at his peak, is no match for his master, let alone with his hands and feet tied.
After a long time, Pei Xiuyan suddenly opened the door, his expression calm, and he returned to his usual lonely and dignified appearance.
He glanced at Shilu and said calmly: "Sirius refused to explain the source of the gunpowder and attempted to resist. I will execute him on the spot."
As soon as he finished speaking, he drifted away.
Shilu was a little surprised. When he entered the house and saw the scene in front of him, he almost vomited.
He quickly retreated, grabbed a torch from the hands of the officers and soldiers outside, and threw it into the house. The whole house quickly burned.
Shi Lu said to all the officers and soldiers: "Did you all hear what King Qing said just now? Tianlang refused to explain the source of the gunpowder and attempted to resist. King Qing has already executed him. In order to avoid future troubles, I am the first to take over the general. Sirius smashed his bones and scattered ashes on the spot."
These officers and soldiers are all people who eat the royal food, and they have always understood the principle of not saying what should not be said.
They all said in unison: "Understood!"
Shilu arranged for the officers and soldiers to pile all the bandit corpses together and count the number of corpses to see how many had escaped.
He also ordered the remaining bandits to be captured alive and brought back to Kyoto for slow interrogation. He wanted to find out the source of the gunpowder no matter what.
Zhang Jing lowered his head and mingled with the group of officers and soldiers. While moving the corpses, he was thinking about how to escape today.
He followed Pei Xiuyan up the mountain, and felt an ominous premonition in his heart when he saw Pei Xiuyan kneeling on the ground and desperately digging the soil with his hands regardless of his status.
What if Ye Chuyan didn't die and wasn't raped by bandits?
As a result, what he worried about most happened. Ye Chuyan was safe and sound, it was the young master of the Wu family who helped her.
He was frightened when he saw Ye Chuyan lying in Pei Xiuyan's arms and whispering.
Did Ye Chuyan tell Pei Xiuyan that he drugged her?
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
He desperately hinted to himself that his father was the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and since Ye Chuyan was safe, he shouldn't tell Pei Xiuyan about this.
Otherwise, the relationship between the Qing Palace and the Zhang family will be damaged, which will be detrimental to the situation of the court.
He was now mingling among the officers and soldiers, not daring to take credit, let alone show up in front of Shi Lu and Pei Xiuyan, he just wanted to return to Kyoto safely.
As long as he returned to Kyoto and was protected by the Zhang family, Pei Xiuyan would not dare to do anything to him.
"Vice General Zhang!"
This shout made Zhang Jing suddenly excited.
He turned his head to face the stern face, and instantly all the muscles in his body tensed up.
"Yan, guard Yan."
"The prince has something to do with you, please come with me."
Zhang Jing subconsciously took two steps back and said, "Guard Yan, I'm busy right now. I'll report to the prince if I have anything to do."
Yan Pi pursed his lips and couldn't help but say that he was going to catch Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing naturally didn't want to, so he retreated and hid in the crowd.
The officers and soldiers didn't know what happened for a while, and they all stopped what they were doing and looked at the two men.
Although this guard Yan looked cold, he was still one of his own. Why did Vice General Zhang feel like he had seen a ghost when he saw him?
Shi Lu was also a little puzzled. He didn't want these two people to delay the business, so he waved his hand and said: "Vice General Zhang, I'm here. The prince has something to do with you, so you go first."
Zhang Jing looked around and found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes. He clenched his fists tightly and kept telling himself that Pei Xiuyan had to be taboo about taking him away in front of so many officers and soldiers. He would never dare to Kill yourself.
After taking several deep breaths, he reluctantly followed Yan Che.
Yan Qi took him all the way to a remote house somewhere in Tianlang Village.
Zhang Jing saw dozens of black-clad secret guards guarding the house. Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, and he turned around and wanted to run away.
Yan Qifei kicked him to the ground, held his chin and stuffed a pill into his mouth.
Zhang Jing was no match for Yan Xi. After he was forced to take the pill, he retched like crazy.
"What did you feed me? My father is the Minister of Justice. If you dare to touch me today, my father will not let go of the Qing Palace."
"Don't worry, you won't die if you take the medicine you gave the princess."
After Yan Pei finished speaking, he took Zhang Jing and threw him into the house.
In a certain room in Tianlang Village, Pei Xiuyan was sitting beside Ye Chuyan's bed, his deep eyes staring at her sleeping face, with no trace of happiness or anger on his face.
Yan Pei came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Zhang Jing's matter has been settled."
Pei Xiuyan stood up and slowly raised the corners of his lips, his voice was frighteningly cold.
"Before Shilusou Mountain, find all the remaining bandits and kill them all. No one is allowed to be left alive in Tianlang Village."
He couldn't let the news that Ye Chuyan was alone with Wu Mu on the mountain get out, this matter would be buried here forever.
Yan Qi retreated again.
Pei Xiuyan turned around, held Ye Chuyan's hand and put it on his face, and said softly: "Ayan, as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt you again. I'll take you home."
After Pei Xiuyan left with Ye Chuyan, the rest of the finishing work of the bandit suppression was left to Shi Lu.
That night, the Tianlang Village was filled with flames and the smell of blood filled the sky.
While Shi Lu ordered people to dig out the buried jewelry and gunpowder in the cave, he also ordered people to search the whole mountain for living bandits.
On the morning of the next day, the bombed cave was dug out, and more than 500 packets of gunpowder were found. This amount shocked all the officers and soldiers present.
There was so much gunpowder hidden in a bandit's den, it was outrageous!
At noon, the corpses of all the bandits were gathered together. There were three thousand bandits in Tianlang Village, and no one survived.
Shi Lu pursed his lips and looked at the mountain of corpses with an unhappy expression.
Everyone in Tianlang Village died, which meant that the source of the gunpowder could no longer be found.
