Chapter 179 Disturbance in the East City (2)
With this shout, a group of more than ten people quickly pushed away the onlookers and rushed over. The official's face, which should have been quite elegant, was covered in sweat at this moment, and the official hat on his head was tilted. He didn't care about Zheng Yizheng, but just snatched up and called to stop the fight.
Sun Tu's stick suddenly stopped two or three inches away from the other party's chest, but it was not implemented after all. Because he heard some majesty that only the government could have from this call, and guessed the identity of the visitor, he stopped first, and then glanced back to his back: "What's the point of this official?"
"I am the young minister of the Honglu Temple, Jiang Xudong, these people are all envoys of the Liao Kingdom, so you must not hurt them." After rushing to say this key sentence, he looked at Sun Tu again: "Are you from Kaifeng Prefecture?"
"Sun Tu, the head of the capital of Kaifeng Prefecture in Xiaguan, met Jiang Shaoqing." Sun Tu turned around and bent down to rush to the other party and fisted: "But these Liao people were causing trouble in the east of our city and injured several people in a row. Xiaguan's responsibilities are to take them down and do justice."
When Jiang Xudong heard Sun Tu's name, his eyebrows jumped. He had already heard that this man was unique and even the Duke of Wei dared to resist. Can an official from the Ministry of Rites really suppress him? But even if he was hesitant, he still said, "Sun Du also raised his head and handed them over to his official position, and then his official envoys would deal with it. What do you think?" This is also Sun Tu's reputation is also because he wants to change someone else. He has already ordered the servants of Kaifeng Prefecture to hand over to someone else.
"Sun Du Head, you can't let them go, otherwise I'll be injustice!" Suddenly, someone from the people next to you shouted loudly: "They injured my father, but I still don't know how to live or die. I must not let them go just like that."
One person spoke, which immediately attracted more support from others: "Yes, Sun Dutou, you have already set rules in the east of my city to not hurt people. These Liao people not only injured people, but even resisted arrest with swords. They were even injured in the public security office's tolerance. They can't let them run away!"
The people of Tokyo were hostile to the Liao people, but now they saw them hurting others in public, so they were naturally excited. If they were asked to help them take action, they would naturally be brave. But now with Sun Tu, they would still be willing to say a few words to make him rule for the people.
But this happened, Sun Tu was erected, and Cui Lue Shang and his subordinates were also embarrassed by him. Although Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple was not at a high position, he was much better than Sun Tu, a ninth-rank military officer. Moreover, there was the entire Ministry of Rites behind him. If he really had a conflict with them, his family would suffer in the future.
But if the three people were handed over to the Honglu Temple like this, the three Liao people who committed the crime would probably be at ease. Moreover, Sun Tu finally made a discount on the prestige in the city. If he wanted to get someone in the future, he would be excused by them. This would be a bad feeling.
"Tao Sun Du, these Liao people are all members of the mission. If there is a real mistake, it is not something you can afford. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your subordinates." Jiang Xudong spoke again, his tone much worse than before.
Just when Sun Tu felt a little embarrassed and weighed the pros and cons, the brothers in front of him suddenly exclaimed: "Be careful!" At the same time, he suddenly felt a sudden rise in his head and was actually attacked.
It turned out that the Liao people who stood at the end saw the situation stalemate and found that they were far from Sun Tu's opponent. They finally made up their minds and launched a sneak attack. Taking advantage of Sun Tu's opportunity to turn around and focus on the people of Honglu Temple, they stepped forward and waved their swords to slash at the back of his neck.
He was confident that the sword was extremely fast, and the other party would inevitably dodge and could not resist it, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face. As long as he killed this guy who dared to attack him and others, the others would inevitably be afraid and would leave safely.
But just as the steel knife approached, Sun Tu's neck suddenly turned to the side, almost letting the fatal knife pass. At the same time, the stick that was originally held in his hand was already roaring and picking up. He actually used the tail of the stick to slash the vital part of the lower body like a gaze on the back of his head, and made the other party scream in a shrill voice. His whole body suddenly turned into a shrimp-like shape, and tears and snot flowed out.
However, Sun Tu's shoulder was still cut by him with a knife, and a large piece of flesh and blood splattered out, and some even fell on Jiang Xudong and others, which made them scream and retreated. Two members of the escorts even softened their feet and fell to the ground. These people from the Honglu Temple had never seen such a violent scene, but they were scared very much.
At this time, Sun Tu's movements had not stopped. When he pulled the person to the ground with one stick, he had quickly twisted his body and kicked his feet out in succession. Without any mercy, he kicked him hard on the guy who had fallen on the ground and kept twitching. He kicked him out and then rolled on the ground for a while, and then he couldn't move, not knowing life and death.
At this time, Cui Lue Shang and his subordinates couldn't help it anymore, so they rushed up and completely suppressed the three Liao people with the stick in their hands, so that they could not turn over again. They just now could not help Dutou because of their timidity and hesitation and lack of reaction, but after such an accident, they could no longer stand by and watch.
Sun Tu's face turned pale. I don't know whether it was scared or angry, so I shouted loudly: "Come here, take them all back to the public security office. If you resist, you will be killed without any consequences!"
"Yes!" These subordinates immediately agreed and quickly tied up the three Liao people who had lost their ability to resist. This order and reaction immediately won unanimous praise from the people around them, and everyone felt proud.
It was not until the cheers sounded that Jiang Xudong came to his senses from the panic just now. When he saw the Liao people being tied up, he immediately became anxious: "Sun Du, you have to consider the consequences... These are the envoys of the Liao Kingdom..."
"In my eyes, these Liao people are all traitors who commit crimes. They not only hurt people and resist arrest, but also want to assassinate me, the imperial official. Therefore, in order to ensure peace in Tokyo, I must take them to the court for strict trial! If Jiang Shaoqing has any unknowns, he can report to the court. But today this is the responsibility of this official, and he will never hand over people to you!" This time, Sun Tu's attitude has become quite firm, and he does not give the other party any room to bargain. After saying that, he waved his hand: "Take the three criminals back!"
"Yes!" Everyone agreed and dragged three Liao people out of the crowd. Seeing this, the people subconsciously gave way to both sides and gave them a passage. Many people looked at Sun Tu and these servants with respect in their eyes, and even some of the members around Jiang Xudong were respectful.
It was not until they watched Sun Tu and the others escorted the people away, and several officials from the Honglu Temple who dared not come forward to obstruct him before looked at Jiang Xudong with some anxiety: "Shaoqing, what should we do next?"
Jiang Xudong's face was in a state of uncertainty, and he sighed after a while: "Let's go, I will apologize to the court. As for Sun Tu, he has caused trouble this time, and the Liao people will definitely not give up."
Among the people watching, several big men had complicated expressions. After a while, someone sighed: "This time I have convinced Sun Yanluo. He is fearless, whether it is the official or the most difficult person with Fan Yanzi, he is not afraid. Now even the Liao people are arrested as soon as they say. It seems that our brothers from the Zhujie Gang will suffer a loss under his command."
"Gangmaster, brothers all think that Sun Yanluo is a hero, very different from other yamen hawks."
"Yes, it's really a waste for such a hero to be in the officialdom. Let's go." As he spoke, the people from the Zhujie Gang dispersed quickly like other people.
At this time, the Kaifeng Prefecture people who had already walked out of the East City all looked at Sun Tu with some concern and were still injured on his shoulder: "Your injury is not serious, you have to go to the clinic to bandage and use medicine."
Sun Tu grinned and shook his head, "Time is tight, so it's too late to go to the clinic. Let's go back to the public security office to investigate the case. You two go to find someone who understands Khitan and a doctor to treat my injuries. If you don't hurry up, my knife will be in vain."
Only he knew that the reason why he could not dodge just now was finally cut off his shoulders and scalp with one knife was completely a temporary choice. Otherwise, with Sun Tu's current martial arts, the Liao people's sneak attacks from behind would not be able to affect them at all.
The situation just now has become a dilemma, and even Sun Tu didn't know what choice to make. But the sudden attack from the Liao people made him temporarily pass a breakthrough strategy. If he deliberately got the knife, he could take the initiative. Even if the court had to pursue it later, he would have sufficient reasons to make excuses.
In addition, from the conflicts that occurred today, Sun Tu also clearly felt the reality that the Liao people are weak now. As an ethnic minority that advocates force, the Khitans should have been used to confronting people head-on and dislike sneak attacks. But today these three people took sneak attacks one after another, which was a manifestation of lack of confidence in their own force.
It is obvious that the small thing is enough, and it can be seen from this small matter that the Liao Kingdom today is no longer different from the past, and is not much stronger than the Song Dynasty, which was originally weak in literature and martial arts.
When Sun Tu took the Liao people back to the public security center, Shen Liang and others who had already returned from the clinic were a little surprised. But after knowing that their heads were actually injured by the Liao people, there was another wave of excitement and wished that they could take action to teach these guys a lesson.
Fortunately, Sun Tu waved his hands at the right time: "The most urgent task is to understand the matter. If you want to vent your anger, you will have a chance." This will save these Liao people from a new round of flesh and blood.
