After learning that there were as many as three people who planned to assassinate his tomb, Qin Jin couldn't help but wonder how true and credible Cui Ji's words were. He felt that this person was more difficult to deal with than those so-called moral gentlemen and cunning villains, and this kind of child from a family often carried too many things, and the degree of distortion of his mind was probably not comparable to ordinary people.

The reason why Qin Jin changed his mind about sending Cui Ji to Jingshi to be punished by the imperial court was that he intended to dig out greater usable value in him.

"Very well, you go and write down everything you know now, and I'll think it over!"

Cui Ji was stunned for a moment, he thought that since Qin Jin intended to recruit him, he would inevitably make a move to entrap him, who would have thought that it would be perfunctory with such an understatement. He took a deep breath and immediately understood why Qin Jin's attitude was so unpredictable. In the end, it was not his own factors that saved his life, but the huge family behind it.

The illustrious family is not only the capital that Cui Ji was once proud of, but also the burden that he can't shake off. Because in the eyes of the world and even the clansmen, no matter how hard he works and how capable he is, in the end it will only be attributed to the results of the achievements of the family.

It was precisely because he had the intention of proving himself that Cui Ji did not hesitate to take risks and personally planned the assassination of Qin Jin and the seizure of the power of the Shenwu army. It's a pity that it was this plan that completely made him a laughing stock for the world to talk about, and the reputation of the mayfly shaking tree naturally became a true portrayal of him.

But no matter what, getting Qin Jin's forgiveness is also a blessing in Cui Ji's misfortune, as long as he has a chance to live, he will not rule out the possibility of a comeback in the future. Because of this, he dispelled the idea of dying in a very short time.

Cui Ji was unshackled by the sergeant, and then he was put out again. Yang Xingben was puzzled by Qin Jin's sudden change of mind one after another.

"Cui Ji is a wolf with ambitions, if the doctor lets him go, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future!"

Of course, Qin Jin can see that Cui Ji is definitely not Fang Xuan and other similar people, he is the kind of person who is commonly known as having a backbone in the back of his head, and he must not be reused. However, there was also a last resort reason why he changed his mind.

"Cui Ji is the leader of the younger generation of the Qinghe Cui clan, can we take this as an opportunity to change the bad relationship with them?"

The Qinghe Cui clan had several side branches in the hands of Qin Jin one after another, given that the power of the gate lord clan was still very strong in this era, it was naturally a little less difficult to have one less enemy.

"Now that everyone knows that Cui Ji is the mastermind of the assassination of the doctor, does the doctor still want to openly violate the law?"

Yang Xingben was by no means a person who only knew how to obey orders, there were not many times when he agreed with Qin Jin when he was around, but it was all out of loyalty to Qin Jin, which was also one of the reasons why Qin Jin reused him.

"Cui Ji's affairs are presided over by you personally, so don't go through Chen Qianli's hands!"

Qin Jin did not answer Yang Xingben's question, but handed over all the questions to him in one go. Yang Xing understood it in his heart, and spread his hands again:

"The Admiral knows what to do!"

After explaining Cui Ji's disposition, Qin Jin's nerves did not relax for a moment, and he slowly walked to the huge map that was hanging on the east wall.

"Will the situation in the world continue to be chaotic, or will peace be restored?"

He said this as if he was talking to himself, and it was like asking questions into the air. Yang Xingben said:

"Judging from the end of the day, the situation in the world is still not chaotic enough. ”

Qin Jin turned his head and glanced at him, the so-called is not chaotic enough, it depends on how to understand it, one is that it will inevitably be corrupted according to the development of the situation, and the other is a subjective will. As for which kind of meaning Yang Xingben's words tended to, he thought it was more of the latter.

"Like the peaceful scene in the period of Xiang Tianbao, I am afraid that it is far away, but we must not become the source of chaos, otherwise we will go against the trend and will be defeated sooner or later!"

The words of both of them were vague, but they were equivalent to pointing out the direction of the Shenwu Army in the next few years.

"The court, the court, no matter what kind of crazy thing they do, is it all justified?"

In the final analysis, Qin Jin had to maintain the dignity of the imperial court and protect the interests of the Shenwu army, and seeking a balance between the two was no less difficult than walking on the edge of a cliff, and if he was not careful, he might fall into the abyss of no return.

Of course, this is just a vent, Yang Xing is not stupid, An Lushan's rebellion has only been a few years, and the prestige accumulated by Li Tang in a hundred years is not exhausted overnight. If they go against the imperial court, I am afraid that more people will stand on their opposite side, which is extremely unwise. However, if Qin Jin didn't take the initiative to pierce this layer of window paper, Yang Xingben would certainly not be stupid enough to stretch out a finger to poke it.

……

Hu Xiqian's eyes were full of tears, at this time he even repented of his intestines, and he heard the sobbing sound of the two young sons almost dying, he couldn't do anything, and the cries of his wives and concubines made his heart like a knife. In the past, every time I read about how heroic heroes are to destroy their families and wealth for loyalty, but when these encounters are their turn, they find that every kind of catastrophe is unbearable.

Of course, Hu Xiqian didn't have to die, but he just chose the centurion sesame mung bean petty official like lard. It's good now, but being this centurion has cost him his life.

The more he thought about it, the more sad he became, and Hu Xiqian finally couldn't help crying loudly, but his pain was only exchanged for scolding.

"Crying, crying, crying, crying, why did you bother in the first place? When you are reincarnated as a human in the next life, you only hope that you will do your duty, and do not do such unrealistic and vain things again!"

However, how could Hu Xiqian listen to this scolding, which was close to persuasion, and still cried like a tearful person.

"Cry again, cry again, even your wife and children will be arrested together!"

This intimidation really had the desired effect, and Hu Xiqian stubbornly put the cry back into his stomach, but his face was swollen like a pig's urine bubble full of air.

Seeing this, the general laughed, and pointed at Hu Xiqian, leaning forward and closing back.

"If you're so well-behaved, why should you let your own people be frightened?"

Suddenly, Hu Xiqian raised his head and said word by word:

"I, I want to expose, expose those rebellious fish who slipped through the net!"

The general's eyes were full of disdain, and he only sneered lightly.

"Don't think that you can deceive the captain of this school by making a few names, let's kill them obediently if you know each other!"

"I'm not nonsense, if there is a lie, I'd rather die a good death, and the sky will hit five thunderstorms......"

Hu Xiqian swore an oath, and what he said was conclusive, and the general hesitated a little, thinking that this timid rammer might really know the secret that others did not know, so he leaned down and stared at him, and asked:

"Tell me what you know, and if it's useful, you might be able to get a dog back from life. ”

Hu Xiqian was willing to say it easily, only staring and always wanting to dodge backwards, for fear that the general in front of him would slap him again.

"Am I stupid? Tell you, what if you break your promise? I'm not a dumb person who eats Coptis chinensis......"

The general felt angry and funny, and this rammed goods were still being handled.

"Give you one last chance, do you want to say it?"

"Don't say it, I won't say it, I won't see the real general, and I won't say it if I am killed!"

The general was a little annoyed, he was indeed just a captain, but he was so blatantly ridiculed by a dying person, his face was a little unbearable anyway. Annoyed, he kicked Hu Xiqian's chest fiercely, and cursed in his mouth:

"Let you toast without eating and drinking, if you want to live, there is no door!"

This kick was so strong that Hu Xiqian lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't sit up, and finally two Shenwu Army sergeants dragged him up with one arm.

"Take it away!"

"Don't ...... Other...... I said, I said, ......"

Hu Xiqian gave in intermittently, and the general smiled, and waved his hand to stop the two sergeants.

"Why should you suffer from that flesh and skin? ”

Hu Xiqian breathed a sigh of relief, spit out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and then said:

"I, I know that there is a big man in your Shenwu Army who also participated, and participated in interfering with the centurion's bribery ......."

"Hurry up! Sell it again, look for a fight!"

"I said, don't fight, I heard someone say the name of Da Xi Xianggong that day, and the person who received the money really lived up to expectations, and we all got our wishes, and we were elected centurions as we wished......"

The military general frowned, and there was only one Da Xi Xianggong in Luoyang City, that is, Da Xi Xun, the prime minister of Pseudo-Yan. However, when the Shenwu Army conquered Luoyang City, this person made great contributions, and even Qin Jin treated him as a guest, how could this person turn over and plot to assassinate Qin Jin?

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, no matter whether what this ramming said is true or not, it must be reported to Qin Jin as soon as possible.

About half an hour later, Hu Xiqian, who had been beaten a lot, knelt in front of Qin Jin.

"That is, you want to prove that Da Xixun is guilty of rebellion?"

Hu Xiqian still had a bargaining attitude in front of Qin Jin, and now he is also open, all the purpose is to not die. He even secretly swore that as long as he was lucky enough to escape this time, he would repent and reform himself, never read those demagogic ranger biographies again, and even devote himself to exposing and reporting these heroes who used force to prohibit them. It's a pity that Li Si has been shot dead on the spot by the Xinzhong Bridge, otherwise there would be an extra name named Li Yan in the list he would have exposed.

"If what I said is true, can the doctor spare me from dying?"

Qin Jin smiled, what is the reason for the death of a mere centurion, however, he also knew that Yang Xingben classified the officers above the centurion level of the rebel militia as the culprit, and this could eliminate those with ill intentions in the militia to the greatest extent, so he did not object.

"Well, as long as the examples you give are true, I will spare you from death!"
