620 The Loyalty of the Marquis of Zhongyi

"Get up. Liang Jiule Zhengrong Xiu slowly opened his mouth: "Inform the world that the eunuch Fulu and the Qiyuan Emperor colluded to poison the first emperor inside and outside. Tang Yun, the governor of the water division, was unjustly imprisoned during the investigation, and the truth has now been ascertained. Fu Lu committed suicide in fear of sin, and the key to the sect escaped. From now on, the prefectures and counties of Northern Qi will arrest the key to the sect. ”

He narrowed his eyes: "Life or death!"

"Yes!"

A national teacher gave an order to kill an emperor, which was originally an unbelievable thing. At this time, no one thought it was incredible, and there was only a uniform harmony between the upper and lower parts of the soul.

The history of Northern Qi was completely rewritten on this night, and the history books called this night the change of Chinese New Year's Eve.

History has mixed reviews for this move of Le Zhengrongxiu.

Some people say that he is not afraid of the powerful, putting his life and death at the expense of outsiders, setting aside chaos and upholding justice anyway. Some people say that he is actually trying to kill the full-fledged Emperor Qiyuan for his own selfish desires, paving the way for his ulterior purposes.

Whatever the facts, the era of the key to the clan came to an end on that day.

It stands to reason that the emperor disappeared, and Le Zhengrongxiu's act of forcing the palace can be described as quite successful. He could have replaced the Zongzheng key at the heavenly sacrifice ceremony on the second day and directly announced that he would be the emperor.

But he didn't. Only an order was issued to cancel all New Year's celebrations.

And, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Marquis of Zhongyi announced its withdrawal from the court. Declare that all people with lofty ideals in the world will join us to crusade against the rebels!

The situation in the capital of Chu was unprecedentedly tense for a while, and a major war was about to break out.

But the key to the sect is like evaporating from the world, and there is no trace of it.

"Thank you for your hospitality. The beautiful woman smiled and raised the wine glass in her hand high: "Tang Yun did it first as a respect." ”

Seeing her tilt her neck, the cool wine fell into her stomach.

"The governor is really polite. Zhongyihou smiled dryly, but there was not much joy on his face.

"Huh?" Tang Yun looked at Zhongyihou, and his eyes showed a little doubt: "Why did I drink all the wine in your house, but Hou Ye refused to take half a sip." Could it be that there's something wrong with this drink?"

"Naturally, there won't be. As he spoke, Zhongyihou drank the wine in his hand and turned an empty cup upside down to show her.

"Refreshing. Tang Yun clapped his hands: "I really didn't expect that Zhongyi Hou could be so aware of righteousness, and he was willing to turn Ganbo into jade silk with me and Axiu." ”

Hearing her say this, Zhongyihou snorted coldly: "You arrested my son, can I not agree?"

Tang Yunqiao smiled: "That's not what I said, Yun'er just asked your prince to be a guest for a few days." Everyone is an official of the same dynasty, why do you have to make such a sabre-rattling?"

Zhongyihou lowered his head: "Since I have promised you, it is useless to say so much." What about Cui Xu?"

"Nature is where he should be. Tang Yun smiled and said, "As long as you sign your name here, Cui Shizi will be able to come back immediately." ”

Zhongyihou frowned, watching the beautiful woman slowly put a thin piece of rice paper on the table.

"This ....... Zhongyihou's face was gloomy: "I don't sign." ”

"Then I'm afraid you won't see the son of the world. ”

"Tang Yun. Zhongyi Hou raised his eyes, his eyes were like knives staring at the smiling and beautiful woman in front of him: "You and Le Zhengrong forced me to do this, one day, you will regret it!"

"Hehe, I never think about the future. Tang Yun hooked her lips slightly: "Living in the moment is the most important thing." ”

Loyal and righteous waited for a moment without words.

"It's just a document agreeing to Emperor Qiyuan's abdication, if I were you, I would be obedient. Tang Yun said slowly and elegantly: "The oath made by the ancestors of the Cui family is to be loyal to the emperor, so just be loyal." Who cares if he is the emperor?"

"At least. The woman's voice was soft and melodious: "I have to have a reliable son to send me to the end." ”

Zhongyihou: "...... Bring a pen. ”

Tang Yun raised her eyebrows, unconcealing the joy in her eyes. She likes smart people, and it would be better if she was smart and obedient.

Loyalty and righteousness are fast, and the pen is a dragon and snake. Almost in the blink of an eye, he completed his signature, and then threw the brush far away.

"Where's Cui Xu?"

"Here it is. ”

In the woman's crisp high-five, Lei Yan pushed a man with a black cloth on his eyes in. Tang Yun personally walked over to untie the man.

"Loyalty and righteousness are waiting for you, the prince has returned all the beards and tails to you. In the future, we will still be good colleagues who are officials in the same dynasty. ”

As she spoke, she filled herself with a glass of wine and held it in the direction of Zhongyihou: "In order to celebrate our consensus, I will also come to toast you today." ”

Zhongyihou's eyes quickly crossed her body, and then settled on Cui Xu's face. Cui Xu only kept his head down, as if he didn't dare to make any eye contact with his father.

"Cui Xu. Zhongyihou said in a deep voice: "Do you know how much I paid to exchange you back?"

Cui Xu's body trembled: "Son...... Understood! The son deserves death. ”

As he spoke, he pouted and knelt in front of Zhongyihou.

"It's all the son's fault, and it's me who is caught in the father's and in his unrighteousness. It was I who ruined the reputation of the Marquis of Zhongyi for a hundred years. ”

"Have you forgotten what I've taught you since you were a child?"

Cui Xu's body stiffened, and he raised his head suddenly.

"The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, his head can be broken, blood can be shed, and his integrity cannot be lost!

Tang Yun squinted, something seemed to be wrong with these words.

"Son...... I see. Cui Xu took a deep breath and kowtowed heavily to Zhongyihou.

"You get the idea. Zhongyihou smiled bitterly and said, "I'm confused." ”

"Life...... It's hard to get confused. He closed his eyes: "I thought I could let go of everything in the face of righteousness, but it turned out that I was still a layman." ”

He opened his eyes, with a shallow mist in his eyes: "From now on, there will be no loyalty to the Houfu." Get up. ”

He strode over the table and quickly poured himself a glass of wine: "Dry." ”

There was a crisp bang, and the two wine glasses slammed together. Zhongyi waited for the wine in the cup to drink.

"Now that we have drunk this wine, let's forget all the unpleasant things in the future. Tang Yun said with a smile.

Zhongyihou lowered his head: "En." ”

"So, can Master Hou tell me. Where the hell is the deposed emperor hiding?"

"Huh. Zhongyi waited for a long time without saying a word, and only after a long time did he laugh lowly: "Even if I die, I won't tell you!"

As he spoke, he thrust the table in front of him. There was a dull clattering sound in my ears, as if something extremely bulky was rubbing against the ground quickly, and the whole hall shook.

"What's going on?" Tang Yun's heart trembled, and a hint of foreboding immediately floated.

"Hahahaha. Zhongyihou looked up to the sky and laughed, and the gloom and depression around him seemed to disappear at this time.

"Now that you sailors have entered my Zhongyi Marquis's Mansion, don't even think about getting out alive today. ”

"Father, you put down the jack gate?!" Cui Xu was shocked: "Once the jack gate is put down, it will never be opened again." ”

"I want it to be open. Zhongyihou said coldly: "I just want this woman to die here, and I won't give her the slightest chance to escape!"

Tang Yun frowned, and after beating Zhongyihou and knocking down the table. It suddenly darkened in all directions, and it turned out that the windows and doors were sealed, and no light penetrated in. The candles on the walls of the hall suddenly lit up.

At the same time, a strong and pungent smell of fire oil wafted out. It turned out that from the mouth of the fish carved from the lotus leaves carved on the four walls, there was a slight buttery bright liquid gushing out.

Tang Yun had no doubt that the thing that kept flowing out was fire oil. And it's a very powerful oil for fire.

She moved, and scurried towards the wall. Reaching out and knocking, the sound of a button came out of my ear. Only then did I find that the walls around me were hollow inside, but I was afraid that they were filled with fire oil.

That's why there is so much oil in the fish's mouth. It took a lot of effort, and the oil was already wetting the soles of the shoes.

"You don't have to work in vain. Zhongyihou slowly sat down in his chair: "The walls and windows of the gate here are covered with iron plates, and the oil can completely fill this room. When the smell of fire oil is strong enough, the torches on the walls will naturally light them. Even if you're dead, you can't get out. ”

Tang Yun stopped tapping, she knew that what Zhongyihou said was true.

"You've sealed this room, aren't you yourself unable to get out?"

"From the moment you entered the Zhongyi Mansion, I didn't think about going out. ”

Zhongyihou raised his head, his eyes brighter than ever.

"It doesn't matter if I'm dead, do you have to let the son of the world be buried with me?"

"You don't have to stir up a wedge between our father and son. Cui Xu said coldly: "The Cui family has no bad seeds, I only hate when I was caught by you, and I didn't commit suicide immediately to apologize." ”

His voice paused, and there seemed to be a moment of trembling: "Otherwise, it wouldn't have bothered my father." ”

Tang Yun blinked, are you all crazy in your family? Who will rush to find death? Isn't it good to live well?

"Huh. Tang Yun smiled: "I really didn't expect that I, Tang Yun, could have such an honor." When I die, I can have a prince and a son to accompany me to the funeral, which is really not a loss. ”

"It's not a loss. "I probably know that I can get rid of my henchmen, and Zhongyi is in a very good mood at this time. A change in the wisdom of the words is like gold.

"You can wipe out all your sailors' henchmen. The rest should be able to sincerely serve the emperor. ”

What does this mean?

Cui Xu seemed to think of something, and his eyes were clearly a little nervous: "Father, you don't ......." ”
