383.

In the handsome tent, the emperor coughed violently, and after relieving his breath, he looked at the fat man with a smile and gasped: "No disease, I don't have much time, I can teach you as much as I can." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I just arranged to tell you that you can't treat the enemy softly, even if you are like a brother, as long as he dares to rebel against you, you must also be ruthless and annihilate him in one fell swoop, then you can no longer care about the family affection of the emperor's family, one person makes chaos, the world is chaotic, no matter what the purpose, it is best not to raise a sword soldier, but once you decide to raise an army, you must cripple the enemy, kill him, and you can't let him turn over, otherwise there will be no peace in the world. ”

The fat man pursed his lips and hesitated, "Father...... Erchen is worried that he will not be able to do this emperor well......"

The emperor smiled: "If you have this worry, it means that you have an enterprising heart, everything is slow, no one who has just become the emperor is a holy monarch, Ming Jun, many times it is gradually maturing in continuous mistakes, I have promoted several young courtiers in recent years, such as Ren Xiaoyao, Feng Qiudao, Han Dashi, after this incident, I will also open Enke, take new scholars, replace a group of old ministers in the court, sweep away the twilight of the court, so that you can govern in the future, these are all left to you by me." After this rebellion, I will not reward the meritorious ministers, but after you ascend the throne, you will reward them, so that the courtiers will be grateful to the new emperor. ”

"No disease, it's easy to be an emperor, it's hard to say, it depends on what means you use to contain the ministers in the court, in the final analysis, only the word 'check and balance', only if the ministers are obedient and respectful of you, they will bow down to you, your proposition, your will will be thoroughly implemented, this is a university question, you have to do it yourself."

"Yes, father, son-in-law, keep it in mind."

"Hurry, move quickly, be careful, don't break it for Lao Tzu, I can't afford to sell you!"

"Hey! Hold it! What kind of eyes do you have? Even the broken cabinets are moved, are you very short of cabinets at home? Don't! It's big and worthless, leave it to the household department to check it, and you have to leave some soup for them to drink. ”

"Hey! Are you very idle? How many eggs are you playing tricks with? ”

"My lord, this is not an egg, this is the pearl of the night."

"The Pearl of the Night? Damn, a night pearl the size of an egg...... Give it all to me, this is suspicious evidence of the prince's rebellion, this official will take it home and study it carefully......"

“……”

“……”

The prince's mansion was a thriving and busy scene.

After sending off the crown princess respectfully, Ren Xiaoyao and Wen Sen immediately recovered their nature, embarrassed to do something in front of the crown princess, at this time they had no scruples at all, all the valuable things in the prince's mansion were collected by the soldiers one by one, sorted and stacked on the front hall square in the mansion, under the light of the sun, exuding a soft and moving golden light.

The guards, domestic servants, palace maids, and eunuchs of the prince's mansion were gathered in the courtyard of the apse, and were strictly guarded by the soldiers, who all looked at the wolf-like soldiers with fear and horror as if they were moving for the prince, and moved boxes of things out. In the more than ten years since the prince established the mansion, how could anyone have been so bold? As subordinates, they also vaguely understood at this time, I am afraid that the title of the prince has become history, and with their group of slaves, waiting for them, I don't know what the outcome will be.

Ren Xiaoyao and Vinson are like two hard-working little bees, flying to the east and west, shuttling back and forth. At last, when the mountains of gold, silver, and jewels appeared in front of them, their eyes were straight, their mouths were wide open, and they stared blankly at the pile of glittering golden goods, and for a moment they forgot to speak.

"Good...... That's a lot of incriminating evidence! Vinson stammered.

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a faint green light: "This ...... How much is this worth? ”

"Let's not say that there are tens of millions of taels, just these twelve Nanhai Dongzhu pearls with the same size, color and texture are priceless treasures, and money can't buy them......"

"! This is the ...... Lao Wen, let's not be officials, let's go to the rich man, and go to the restaurant to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas in the future, call two tables at a time, one table is used to eat, and one table is used to see ......" Ren Xiaoyao looked straight at his eyes and muttered.

"yes...... Later, I will buy two fifteen-year-old beautiful little girls and come back, one for my mother, and the other for my daughter-in-law......" Winson drooled and whispered dreamily.

"Yes, yes...... Well? Is this your ideal? Stunning girl used to serve your mother and your daughter-in-law? Ren Xiaoyao was awakened by Vinson's strange ideals.

Wen Sen nodded shyly: "It's enough for me to have a daughter-in-law and a waiter, it's too chaotic to have too many people......"

Ren Xiaoyao's face darkened: "I have a useless subordinate like you, it's really my great blessing." ”

"My lord, you praise me too much, and my subordinates are a little scared......," Vincent's face turned red as he was praised.

“……”

The two of them fixed their minds, looked at the mountain of gold, silver and jewelry, and glanced at each other.

Wen Sen suddenly clenched his fists heavily, and said with a righteous face: "My lord, my subordinates feel that these assets are very likely to be suspicious evidence of the prince's conspiracy to rebel, and my subordinates think that all these important evidence should be moved to the adult's mansion, so that the adults can study this major case of great rebellion." ”

"This ......" Ren Xiaoyao touched his chin and looked embarrassed: "It's not good...... There is too much evidence, and it is too hard for this official to study alone, so let's do it, Lao Wen, you take two cloth bags and fill them, take them home to help me research and research, and hand over a report to me after the research is completed......"

Vincent was overjoyed: "Thank you, my subordinates will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations, and I will definitely study it very thoroughly......"

"And the brothers who came today also worked hard, and each of them was given a hundred taels to go back to drink wine."

"Thank you, sir!" All the soldiers thanked in unison with joy.

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head with a heavy face: "Alas, with so much evidence, this official has worked hard in the past few days, but working for the country and the people, this official has always been obliged, hard work is hard, who calls this official the pillar of the country......"

Everyone was greatly moved, and bowed down together and said: "Those who can work hard, adults are tired!" ”

At this time, a soldier of the city defense army rushed into the prince's mansion with a panicked face, staggered to Ren Xiaoyao, panted and said loudly: "General, it's not good!" There are suspicious soldiers and horses outside the north city, and now it is less than ten miles away from the north city gate, please go to the city tower quickly! ”

"Terracotta?" Ren was free for a while, and then rejoiced: "Could it be that the prince's army has been defeated?" Damn it! Great, come here, send 500 people to move this evidence to my storehouse, and the rest go up to the castle with me! ”

※※※

Outside the north city wall of the capital, a line of flags is messy, the staggering remnants of the soldiers are hurrying forward, they are covered with dust and blood, their clothes and armor are scattered, and there seems to be the smell of gunpowder smoke on the battlefield, many soldiers don't even know where to throw the weapons in their hands, the long march, so that this group of remnants is frightened, and the physical strength is overdrawn, so when the road is not at all in a queue, three or three twos support each other, that is, the layman sees it and understands at a glance, this is an army that has just suffered defeat.

The prince stood on the chariot and raised his arms and shouted: "Soldiers, go faster!" As long as we enter the city, we can rest, stick to it, and wait for help, and we will treat you well! ”

It's a pity that this kind of encouragement really didn't interest the soldiers, and everyone still walked dejectedly, no one knew what fate would await them outside the capital.

The prince looked stunned, sighed, and sat back in the chariot rather disappointed.

Sisi hugged the pipa in his arms, hung his head and said nothing, his pretty face flashed a little complicated color from time to time, and finally bit his lower lip, as if he had made up his mind.

Under the rising sun, a group of remnants dragged their staggering steps towards the capital, and the breeze blew through, rolling up the yellow smoke in the sky.

The drawbridge outside the city has long been hoisted high, the city gate is closed, and between the arrow stacks of the city tower, the soldiers clenched their spears and bows and arrows, staring at the remnants of the city with vigilant eyes, and no one came out to question, and the two were silent with each other.

The prince rode out of the procession slowly, looking at the towering city walls and the soldiers on the towers, his heart sank in vain.

He suddenly had a very ominous premonition in his heart.

"The prince of the Lone Naihua Dynasty, return to Beijing with a sacrifice to the sky, and ask your General Qin Chong to come out and answer." Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, the prince tilted his head and shouted loudly to the castle tower.

Not long after, Qin Chong's figure appeared on the city tower, his expression was depressed, his face was decadent, looking at the prince looking up at the city tower, Qin Chong smiled, his smile was bitter and desolate.

"The last general, Qin Chong, has seen His Royal Highness the Prince." On the tower of the city, Qin Chong clasped his fists and saluted the prince.

When the prince saw Qin Chong, he was overjoyed: "General Qin, hurry, open the city gate quickly, and let Gu enter the city." ”

Qin Zhong looked at the prince's happy face and couldn't help but sigh heavily.

The prince's smile gradually stiffened, and he was silent for a long time, and finally said coldly: "Qin Chong, have you also betrayed Lonely?" ”

Qin Zhong shook his head, his face flushed with pain.

"Good, good!" The prince gritted his teeth, his face was pale, like a mad tiger, and roared hysterically: "Lone was blind back then, and cultivated you, an unfaithful and unrighteous person, this is Lone's retribution!" ”

Qin Chong's face turned blue, he was speechless in the face of the prince's shouting, his face was blue and white for a while, he opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head in despair.

Immediately, a familiar figure suddenly appeared behind Qin Chong, he hid behind Qin Chong and cautiously tried to emerge, and then quickly retracted, until he was completely sure that there would be no cold arrows under the city tower to hurt him, then he completely leaned out, raised his hand with a thief smile on his face, and greeted the prince downstairs in the city loudly: "Hi! Prince Oba, you're finally back Smetra, I miss you so much, Smitta, welcome to the capital, Smitta......"

"My lord, what is 'Oba'? What is 'Smagenta'? Vinson asked, confused.

"Uh...... Big people talk, little kids don't interject! …… Okay, Oba is the meaning of the elder brother, Smitta, well, tone particle, this is the distant Goryeo stick country Ren Yan, literate people understand, yours, understand? Ren Xiaoyao patiently explained his doubts.

Vincent suddenly said: "My subordinates understand Smitta!" ”

When the prince saw Ren Xiaoyao, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Ren Xiaoyao!" How did you end up here? ”

"How fresh is this, I am the general of the capital garrison, where am I not here?" Ren Xiaoyao stood on the city tower, sneered condescendingly, and jokingly said: "On the contrary, it is His Royal Highness the Prince, who went out of the city to worship for a day, but he was so embarrassed, and his face was full of dust and fireworks, could it be that he went to barbecue by the way?" ”

The prince's heart sank in vain, and Ren Xiaoyao appeared on the city tower, and it was next to Qin Chong, it seemed that something was wrong.

"Ren Xiaoyao, you have mastered the city defense army?" There was a tremor in the prince's voice.

Ren Xiaoyao twisted his body quite shyly, nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Xia Guan has nothing to do in the capital, so when he was bored, he reorganized the army, by the way...... Killed a dozen generals. ”

Saying that, Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the prince, and said in a somewhat guilty tone: "...... I heard that the dozen or so generals have a good relationship with the prince, this ...... I'm really sorry, they drank and made trouble, and they also molested an eighty-year-old woman and a dog, Your Highness, the military law is ruthless, and the subordinate had to behead them in order to serve the public...... Speaking of which, the lower officials are going to criticize and criticize His Royal Highness, you see what kind of people you have enveloped, your character is too bad, no wonder you are disgraced every day, this is a problem of character......"

"Ren Yao, shut up! The villain has ambition, and Hugh is rampant! The prince was so angry that he trembled, even if he was defeated now, he had never tried to be treated so rudely, he had always been the noble prince, even if he failed, he had to maintain his last dignity.

Ren Xiaoyao patted the arrow battlements of the city tower and sneered: "You are the general of the defeated army, and you are the general of the defeated army who conspired against the army, why can't I be rampant in front of you?" His Royal Highness the Prince, you are the eldest son of the royal family, and the emperor has appointed you as the crown prince for ten years, so you are not thin, right? But you, a beast, actually openly led the army to rebel against the usurpation of the throne, in a vain attempt to kill the king and kill the father, Lao Tzu scolded you lightly, there is a kind of you take a few steps closer, see if Lao Tzu dares to shoot you with an arrow! ”

The prince was furious, his despair was temporarily left behind, his neck was bruised, he raised his head and pointed at Ren Xiaoyao, and shouted at Qin Dazhong: "Qin Chong, if you still remember the kindness that treated you alone in the past, give me a sword to kill this scoundrel and regain the military power of the city defense army!" ”

Ren Xiaoyao looked up to the sky and smiled: "General Qin is a person who understands righteousness, how can he listen to the orders of you, a chaotic minister and thief?" Haha, I'm not afraid of ...... at all."

said that he was not afraid, but Ren Xiaoyao's face changed slightly, and he unconsciously moved a few steps away, away from Qin Chong, and by the way, dragged Wen Sen past him, and blocked him between himself and Qin Chong.

Vincent's head was full of black lines, and he glanced at Ren Xiaoyao with a resentful look in his eyes, then put his hands behind his back and made a secret gesture to Ren Xiaoyao's guard.

The guards immediately comprehended, pressed their swords in their hands, stood behind Qin Chong, and surrounded Qin Chong in the middle in a semicircle, concentrating on his every move, and the city tower was filled with a murderous aura in an instant.

Qin Zhong lowered his head, motionless, and said to the prince with a painful face: "Your Highness...... You've lost, give up, it's useless to fight. ”

The prince's face turned pale, and he shouted, "Qin Chong, do you really want to betray me?" Do you ignore the kindness of me who has cultivated you for many years? ”

Qin Zhong closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. The situation in the city is like this, even if he makes a move at this time, he will be powerless.

Looking at Qin Chong's painful expression on the city tower, the prince's heart gradually sank to the bottom.

"Qin Chong, you're sorry for me first, don't blame me for a tooth for a tooth......" The prince's crazy look suddenly retracted, and he was replaced by a weird sneer.

Under the warm spring sun, the eerie sneer on the prince's lips made people feel cold.

Qin Zhong stared at the prince blankly, and an ominous thought couldn't help but rise in his heart.

"Qin Chong, three days ago, you sent someone to secretly send your parents, wives and children out of the city and settle in a village, do you think I don't know? I'm sorry, I just took your family over. Qin Chong, I know that you are a capable person, don't live up to my expectations of you, kill Ren Xiaoyao now, and I will reunite your family......"

The prince looked coldly at Qin Chong, whose face was pale, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth deepened: "Your son has just turned one year old, and you Qin Chong is still only one son at the age of thirty. ”

Qin Chong's body was shaky, standing on the city tower, he closed his eyes in pain, his face was like gold paper, cold sweat couldn't stop flowing, a pair of fists clenched, and then released, showing that his heart was struggling.

"Wow! You bastard! It's despicable! Actually blackmailed his family, you are still not human? Etiquette, righteousness, and shame have all been thrown out of the sky by you? You wait, your father will lead the army to kill in a while, do you see if he will rip your pants and beat your ass in front of tens of thousands of soldiers......" Ren Xiaoyao jumped on the city tower and scolded.

The prince didn't answer, staring at the pale Qin Zhong and couldn't help but sneer.

Ren Xiaoyao inadvertently looked sideways, but saw that Qin Chong's painful eyes were just right on Ren Xiaoyao, and then his eyes changed, as if hesitant and fierce, complicated and difficult to understand.

Ren Xiaoyao was startled, and unconsciously took a step back: "You...... You, you, you, you don't take it seriously, do you? Don't be stupid, I have so many guards that I'm going to beat you up...... Besides, your family doesn't deserve to die, and neither do I......"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards behind him hurriedly blocked in front of Ren Xiaoyao, drew their blades, and dozens of people waited in formation, staring at Qin Zhong intently.

"Qin Chong, you ...... Don't be impulsive......"

Qin Zhong stared at Ren Xiaoyao, his face was cloudy, and a chilling murderous aura gradually spread among the city towers, causing the guards and shadow subordinates on the city tower to widen their eyes, and looked at Qin Chong for a moment, although Shuangren was speechless, but the smell of sabre-rattling made everyone's nerves tense.

Although Qin Zhong was robbed of military power by Ren Xiaoyao, he has been practicing martial arts diligently since he was a child, and his skills are naturally excellent, and it may be an exaggeration to say that he is inappropriate, but it should not be a big problem to put these dozens of guards in front of Ren Xiaoyao. The guards all knew Qin Chong's identity, so they held swords in their hands, as if they were facing a great enemy, as long as Qin Chong's body shape moved slightly, they would not hesitate to swing their swords forward.

Ren Xiaoyao hid behind the guards, looked at Qin Chong coldly from the gap in the crowd, to be honest, he was very sympathetic to Qin Chong, and the prince under the city tower rode on a horse, and easily gave Qin Chong such a problem.

The dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, any man encounters such a topic, he must not know how to choose, this topic is too heavy, the meaning of "dilemma" means that he chooses one of them, and he has to give up the other.

Ren Xiaoyao asked himself, if he encountered such a perverted question, how would he answer?

With his temperament, it seems that the answer doesn't need to be thought about, it must be a family, as for "loyal and patriotic", Master Ren knows these words, but he doesn't quite understand what they mean. He has loyalty, and when he has nothing to do, he occasionally worries about the country and the people, and he has the right to be a pastime, but if he compares it with his family, this little loyalty seems too insignificant.

After a long time, Qin Chong suddenly let out a long sigh, and sat down on the stone steps by the racetrack of the city tower with a desperate expression, as if he had exhausted the strength of his whole body.

Ren Xiaoyao separated the guards, walked in front of Qin Chong, blinked and smiled: "What? Figured it out? ”

Qin Zhong raised his eyes and looked at Ren Xiaoyao, his eyes were full of hatred and hesitation, which was extremely complicated.

The prince waited for a long time under the city tower but did not reply, and couldn't help but start to get anxious, the pursuers behind him could arrive at any time, and if he didn't hurry up to enter the city, he and his remnants would really go to the top of the road.

"Bring all of Qin Chong's family up!" The prince gritted his teeth and shouted.

Qin Chong trembled when he heard this, stood up involuntarily, ran to the arrow stack in two steps, and looked at it.

At the foot of the castle, the rebel soldiers escorted several people dressed in civilian costumes to the castle tower, they were bound all over, their mouths were gagged with cloth towels, and they staggered under the urging of the soldiers.

Qin Zhong stood on the city tower and screamed sadly, tears fell from the tiger's eyes, and bean-sized tears covered his entire face in an instant.

"Father, mother, mother, mother, my son...... Woo, I'm incompetent, I can't serve the country and be loyal to the king, I can't protect my family, and I can't protect my family, a five-foot man, what face does he have standing between heaven and earth......"

The voice was terrible, like the mournful cry of a trapped beast, and every word was filled with blood and tears, so that the guards and soldiers behind Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but redden.

Loyalty and filial piety are difficult to complete, forcing General Qin to make a choice, and it is difficult for him to live for him. The people around him couldn't help but tear tears of sympathy for him.

"Father, mother, the child has listened to your teachings since he was a child, and the monarch and the ministers dare not forget or forget, and today the prince threatens your life to force the child to do that unfaithful thing...... The child is not filial, and he does not dare to implicate the people of the world with his own selfishness, and suffer from the suffering of displacement, father, mother...... It's just a pain for you! Today, the children are accompanied by death, and we will have a family reunion on Huangquan Road......" Qin Chong burst into tears, and the burly and stout man cried like a child.

When the prince heard it downstairs, his face turned pale, and when he heard Qin Chong's resolute tone, he seemed to have made up his mind that he would rather die than submit to him, which made the prince feel flustered and frightened. Qin Chong's family is the last bargaining chip in his hand, if Qin Chong refuses to comply, this bargaining chip will lose its effect, and he himself must also face the fate of being surrounded and annihilated by his father's army.

On the city tower, Ren Xiaoyao took out a handkerchief, wiped his tears vigorously, and then wiped his nose again, choked up: "It's so touching...... Woo woo, so sensational, deceived people with so many tears, I hate it to death...... Who made up this drama? ”

Qin Chong raised his eyes and glared angrily when he heard this.

Ren Xiaoyao patted Qin Chong's shoulder while wiping his tears, and pointed to the downstairs of the city: "General Qin, although you cry very touchingly, and your lines are also very heroic, of course, a little bit bloody, but please recognize people clearly before starting the show?" Woowoo...... Are the few people tied up downstairs really your family? You don't like me to recognize relatives, do you? It's not good......"

"Huh?" Including Qin Chong, everyone on the city tower was stunned.

Qin Zhong hurriedly wiped his tears, stared down, and soon, the grief on his face suddenly turned into endless ecstasy and doubt.

"This ...... This is not my family...... What's going on? Qin Chong's face was full of tears and snot, and he stammered.

"Woooooooooo......oo You recognize it carefully, don't admit it, I'll cry for a while, woo, it's so touching, I've gone deep into the play, I can't extricate myself, you don't care about me...... Woohoo......"

General Ren wiped his tears and squatted in the corner of the wall to move alone.

Qin Zhong grabbed his hair frantically and shouted, "Can anyone tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

Vincent sneered beside him, snickered at Ren Yao, and opened his mouth to speak, but he still held back.

The prince downstairs also noticed that something was wrong, and looked at the Qin Chong family who were tied up with a suspicious expression.

After a while, Ren Xiaoyao finally "pulled" out of the touching drama and sighed long: "There is true love in the world, and a red apricot comes out of the wall...... It's in line with my mood right now! ”

Seeing that everyone was staring at him with a cold expression, especially Qin Chong, his face was hideous and excited, if Ren Xiaoyao sold Guan Zi again, I believe he would slap Ren Xiaoyao to the city tower without hesitation.

"Oh, the other day, my shadow men had a bunch of sneaky men following a carriage out of town, you know, my men are nosy guys, so they couldn't help but follow all the way, and found that the carriage stopped in a village, and the old and young families came down from the carriage, and lived in a farmhouse, and my men felt that they were idle, anyway, they had nothing to do, and they were looking for fun, so they unknowingly transferred the old and young of that family, and now they are living well in a safe place, Not a single hair has fallen out......"
