It can be said that this great eunuch is a living king in their hearts.
If Cao Zhengchun intervenes in the matter of charging him for seizing the water well, Tian Xiong knows that he will lose his skin even if he is not dead.
Seeing Tian Xiong fainted like a dead dog, Cao Zhengchun snorted coldly and kicked him on the ass.
Tian Xiong woke up slowly after feeling the pain. The first thing he did when he woke up was to throw the pot away.
He turned over and knelt in front of Cao Zhengchun, tearing up his nose and starting to act.
"Master Governor, what wind brought your old man here, catch them quickly, these people are rioters, and they still carry firearms on their bodies, look at the subordinate officials who were injured by them, and the subordinate officials' arms ..."
Cao Zhengchun saw it, and he was a good hater, and he actually called the emperor a rioter.
The eunuch looked at the emperor and Ah Qing, secretly amused:
"Oh, chaos, who are you talking about?"
"It's just them and that woman, don't look at her as a woman, she is extremely cruel!"
The common people and the soldiers lying on the ground were all amused by Tian Xiong's wonderful acting skills.
It never occurred to them that Mr. Zongbing, who is usually aloof, also has such a side.
The people all looked at Zhu Youjian and others, and began to worry about them.
Who doesn't know that officials and officials protect each other, it seems that today's matter will be reversed by Tian Xiong.
But the aunt who was beaten came out again, she knelt down in front of Cao Zhengchun and kowtowed repeatedly:
"My lord, that's not the case. It's the commander-in-chief who seized the water well and charged for it, which led to today's result. Miss, they are all good people..."
When Tian Xiong saw his aunt spoiling his good deeds again, he immediately threatened the aunt:
"You are talking nonsense, be careful that I will sue you for slander! You will be jailed for slander..."

Chapter 676 Execution of Tian Xiong
Tian Xiong also wanted to scare the aunt, but in order to save Ah Qing and a few royal guards who helped her, the aunt had put life and death aside.
She turned her eyebrows coldly at Tian Xiong:
"Master Chief Soldier, don't scare me, old man. Since the old lady dared to send her only son to serve as a soldier under the command of Governor Li Yan, she didn't care about her own life or death. If the old lady died today, my son would have nothing to worry about. Good thing."
What the aunt said made Tian Xiong speechless, unable to refute for a while, but he thought that he was the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, and his status was much higher than that of a village woman.
So he said to Cao Zhengchun again:
"Lord Superintendent, I hope you will make the decision for the subordinate, and don't listen to the slander of this village woman. She is framing the subordinate. I hope the governor will see clearly."
"Slander? Ma'am is not slander but kind words. Now it seems that good words are hard to persuade, damn it."
As Cao Zhengchun said, he bent down to help the aunt, his action stunned Tian Xiong, thinking about what Cao Zhengchun said just now, Tian Xiong felt that something was wrong.
"Master Governor, you must believe what the officer said..."
Cao Zhengchun ignored Tian Xiong, but asked the aunt:
"Where does your son serve as a soldier?"
"Reporting to the lord, my son is in the Pingkou Army, and he went to Nanyang with General Zhou a while ago, but he has not returned yet, and he does not know whether he is dead or alive."
The General Zhou she was talking about was Zhu Cihong, whose alias was Zhou Da.
Before the expedition, few people knew that he was the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty.
Cao Zhengchun came back from Nanyang, although he didn't know who the aunt's son was.
But Cao Zhengchun knew very well that the Pingkou army did not die in several battles in Nanyang.
So Cao Zhengchun said to the aunt:
"Don't worry, old man, your son is definitely alive and well. The Pingkou army has won two big victories under the leadership of the prince, and no one died in the battle."
"Really? Thank goodness..."
The aunt who was upright and awe-inspiring just now, when she learned about her son, had tears in her eyes and bowed to Cao Zhengchun again and again.
Zhu Youjian didn't expect that the aunt's son turned out to be a soldier of the Pingkou Army. He walked up to the aunt and said:
"Don't worry, ma'am, the imperial court will never let the hero shed blood and tears. Regarding today's matter, the imperial court will definitely give you a satisfactory result."
After Zhu Youjian comforted the aunt, he said to Cao Zhengchun:
"Cao Zhengchun, tell Li Yan to come here immediately. How he manages his subordinates is simply unreasonable. His son is bleeding and desperate for Daming, and the officials don't even let the old man drink water. This kind of thing must not happen again."
"obey"
Cao Zhengchun agreed, and immediately asked Dongchang fans to pass on Li Yan.
When Zhu Youjian spoke, Tian Xiong couldn't help shivering.
He looked up at Zhu Youjian carefully, and suddenly felt an extremely majestic aura exuding from this person, obviously a superior person.
He not only called Cao Zhengchun by his name, but also asked Li Yan to come to see him. Could this person be some prince?
No, it is impossible for the prince to make Cao Zhengchun behave like this, could it be...
Tian Xiong suddenly thought of a person, that is Emperor Chongzhen of Ming Dynasty.
But he immediately denied his guess. Didn't the emperor personally go to Nanyang?
At that time, the transmission of information was very slow. Zhu Youjian had just returned, and it was impossible to get news immediately in a place as far away as Dingbian.
As the Emperor of Great Ming Shenwei, even if he returned to Beijing triumphantly, Tian Xiong didn't think that the emperor of Ming Dynasty would come to this remote place.
While waiting for Li Yan, Zhu Youjian walked to the well.
I saw that the well was not only locked, but also sealed, with a few large characters written on the seal: "For the purpose of the General Military Mansion"
Seeing Shuijing like this, Zhu Youjian was even more upset, and Tian Xiong had already been sentenced to death in his heart.
"Embroidered Spring Knife"
Zhu Youjian reached out for a Xiuchun knife, and swung the knife to cut off the iron lock and chain on the well.
Not long after, Li Yan came in a hurry. He happened to be mobilizing the people in Dingbian County for the past two days, and he arrived here as soon as he was notified.
