Six hundred and twentieth chapters weeds and roots

The prison in Yanzhou was dark and humid. This place was originally where Xu Yuanlang detained others, but now it has become a place where he has tied himself up.

A ray of sunlight shone on the windowsill, shining on Xu Yuanlang's face. Xu Yuanlang's face was messy and his hands were placed in front of his chest, and he sat on the ground.

Several gray squirrels in the prison rushed past, and the footsteps sounded from afar. With a knock on the ground, the shackles of the prison door opened.

"Dad, we're fine, we can go out."

Xu Yichou knelt in front of Xu Yuanlang with a thud. Xu Yuanlang turned his head and saw behind Xu Yichou, Jiang Shanhe and several Zhao soldiers followed in the prison.

Xu Yuanlang narrowed his eyes and said to himself: "Li Chongjiu is willing to let me go."

Jiang Shanhe said, "Master Xu, I promised your son that if the Xu family sacrificed Yanzhou, you will definitely protect your father and son from death. The emperor has already agreed, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the life punishment cannot be escaped. The Xu family's mansion has been confiscated, and the father and son have been dismissed as commoners. Although they have lost their power, His Majesty agrees that you can go wherever you like in the future."

Xu Yuanlang sneered, "Where do you love go? Li Chongjiu is so generous, aren't you afraid that I will join Li Yuan? Yanzhou is only a few dozen miles away from Liangzhou. If I go to Liangzhou, I can ask Li Yuan to borrow troops and get up again..."

"Dad, don't say anything more. I'll leave Yanzhou and go back to my hometown to work as a farmer." Xu Yichou kept winking at Xu Yuanlang.

"Is that?" Jiang Shanhe sneered: "Brother Xu, no, Mr. Xu, Your Majesty is willing to let you go. He must be thinking carefully and not afraid of you joining Li Yuan. Brother Xu has been in war for many years and is still old. I would like to advise you. Doing unrighteous things will kill you. Go home to support your old age. After all, Your Majesty is spared your life, so don't be ungrateful."

Xu Yuanlang stood up. The shackles on his hands and feet sounded randomly. He said coldly: "I, Xu Yuanlang, holds grudges and never cared for me all my life. Since Li Chongjiu is willing to let me go, I will leave, and walk the road to the sky."

"What a big road, go one side," Jiang Shanhe smiled and said, "Will General Xu really go to Liangzhou to join Huang and Cheng Jia?"

Xu Yuanlang looked at him squintedly and said, "Since Li Chongjiu is willing to let me go, I will not be so ungrateful."

"So you're serious?"

Xu Yuanlang said: "I don't like to explain to others in my life. If I believe it, I will believe it. If I don't believe it, I will forget it."

Jiang Shanhe smiled and said, "It's true that Xu Yuanlang is still so tough at this time, but no matter how you can say something, I'm really relieved. Someone will unlock the lock for Manager Xu!"

Xu Yuanlang's hand and feet were all opened. When Xu Yichou saw his father release, he grabbed Xu Yuanlang's arm and tears flowed. Xu Yuanlang couldn't help but sigh when he saw his son, his eyes were slightly wet.

Jiang Shanhe said: "Mr. Xu's general manager has been confiscated. There is still some money to use when you go on the road. This is a little Cheng Yi, you two use it on the road."

After saying that, the soldiers on the side presented a plate of copper coins, which was worth a few cents.

"How is this good?" Xu Yichou showed a difficult look. Xu Yuanlang glanced at him and said, "You are so kind. He cheated my Xu family Yanzhou. General Jiang made great contributions to his master. This little money is nothing to him. If you take it, we will rely on him from now on."

Xu Yichou happily accepted it.

The three of them left the prison. Xu Yuanlang felt a little more emotion when he saw the sunshine outside the prison. But when he saw that the Zhao army was already in the city of Yanzhou, Xu Yuanlang couldn't help but feel angry and talked to himself in Jiang Shanhe's hometown dialect. However, when Xu Yuanlang's expression was definitely not a good word.

Jiang Shanhe insisted on sending the two out of the city, but Xu Yuanlang did not refuse. After leaving the city gate for several miles, it was already rare to see people.

Jiang Shanhe originally wanted to send Xu Yuanlang and his son to the Wuli Pavilion in the north of the city, but when he arrived at the Wuli Pavilion, he saw a general waiting for them.

When Jiang Shanhe saw this, he immediately dismounted and stepped forward to see him and said, "Go to General Xu."

Xu Yuanlang and Xu Yichou were shocked. It turned out that the person who looked so elegant in Tingzi was actually Xu Shiji, the general of Zhao army.

Xu Shiji walked out of the pavilion and said to Jiang Shanhe: "It's nothing, I'll come to give Xu Yuanlang in person."

Xu Yuanlang said from afar: "I dare not help General Xu to send him away in person."

"Is that true?" Xu Shiji said with a smile.

As soon as Xu Shiji finished speaking, several men in blue clothes walked out of the Changting Pavilion. A man in blue clothes turned over and approached him with a knife in his hand, and he stabbed Xu Yuanlang in his chest.

"You, son, run!" Xu Yuanlang's chest was bleeding and his body fell down.

Before Xu Yichou could react, the other men in green rubbed their bodies and Xu Yichou said, "No." Jiang Shanhe just finished speaking, Xu Yichou was stabbed to death by several men in green.

Jiang Shanhe looked at Xu Yuanlang and his son lying on a pool of blood, and his body twitched and gradually lost his anger. He couldn't help but say in shock and angrily: "General Xu, why is this? Your Majesty agrees, isn't he exempting the death penalty from the two?"

Xu Shiji said expressionlessly: "That's right, Your Majesty agreed to you and let the two of them go."

"Your Majesty has agreed, why did you kill them again? I guarantee with my head that they will not have the intention to fight against Your Majesty again." Jiang Shanhe couldn't help crying as he said.

Xu Shiji sighed and said, "General Jiang, I know you are a person who promises, but your guarantee is useless. Only dead people are the most reassuring. Your Majesty is to seize the world, and you must not tolerate Xu Yuanlang and others. You should cut the grass and eliminate the roots. Do you understand? As for letting Xu Yuanlang in the city, it is just a formality and to make a difference in front of Xu Yuanlang's old subordinates and the people of Yanzhou. First, Your Majesty keeps your promise in front of outsiders and does not go back on his word. Second, Xu Yuanlang is still quite popular in Yanzhou after all."

After Xu Shiji finished speaking, several men in blue had already put the bodies of Xu Yuanlang, Xu Yichou and his son into a carriage and transported them away, and the blood on the ground was also sprinkled with sand.

"Look, who knows that Xu Yuanlang is dead now? When you go back, you will say that you have personally sent it outside the Wuli Pavilion and watch the Xu family leave with your own eyes. Do you understand?"

"The last general understands." Jiang Shanhe lowered his head.

Xu Shiji smiled and said, "I thought you would have to think about it for a while, but I didn't expect you to understand it so soon. You are a talented person. This time you conquered Yanzhou and made great contributions. Your Majesty said you would reward you very much. You don't have to follow Meng Haigong in the future. Come and follow me. I will recommend you to Your Majesty as the general of Huya."

When Jiang Shanhe heard this, he bowed and said, "Thank you, General Xu."

Luoyang Palace.

After Li Chongji learned from Xu Shiji that after Xu Yuanlang and his son were killed, he was quite satisfied with his work. The capture of Yanzhou played an important role in the entire battle situation, not to mention that he was almost conquered without bloodshed.
