Chapter 254, Hand in Hand
It wasn't until King Xiao came back from the Imperial History Mansion that he knew that Weiyang was missing, and hurriedly ordered to mobilize people to find her whereabouts.
It was already dark, and Leng Qiaoruo came to the palace in a hurry.
"Return, I found her carriage in the woods in the east of the city, and ......" Leng Qiaoruo wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said a word.
"What else?" King Xiao was furious, he was already in a hurry!
"And the coachman's ...... Corpse! Without her! ”
Although he knew that Weiyang was more auspicious, at least her body was not found, which is good news for King Xiao!
King Xiao clenched his fists and slammed it into the table.
"In broad daylight, a large living person was robbed in the city, and it is impossible that there will be no movement. And she disappeared so quietly, which shows that she is willing to follow others, this person is Yun Ranyang. ”
Combined with the previous conviction of the woman who left her back and eloped with Yun Ranyang last time, Leng Qiaoruo concluded that this time it must be a repeat of the old play!
King Xiao frowned and thought, this possibility is not impossible, but ......
If Yun Ranyang can't let her go, why don't you rob her before the wedding?
"Is Yun Ranyang still in the Drunken Immortal Building?" King Xiao raised his eyes and asked.
"Well, in simple terms, these days are even more like the beginning and the end of the dragon." Leng Qiaoruo replied.
"Let's go!"
King Xiao turned around and walked towards the door.
"Return, where are you going?" Leng Qiaoruo hurriedly chased out.
"Go find Yun Ranyang!"
As soon as he walked to the gate, he saw Lan Xue'er running in head-on.
I was so busy chattering that I almost collided with King Xiao.
"Hey! You don't have long eyes! Before she could see the person clearly, Xue'er scolded her.
"You don't have eyes! Like a headless fly, what are you doing! ”
King Xiao was in a very bad mood, and he actually scolded a little girl.
Seeing that it was King Xiao, Lan Xue'er suddenly became a lot more honest, and hurriedly said.
"Fang Yinghui, Yun Ranyang wants to see you, you come with me!"
As soon as he heard that Yun Ranyang was looking for him, King Xiao snorted coldly.
"Robbed my princess and came to negotiate with me again? Go ahead! What conditions does he have? ”
Leng Qiaoruo was dumbfounded when he heard this, this Shangguan Weiyang and Yun Ranyang were originally in the same group, he was stupid and had to negotiate with others, isn't this obviously being pitted?
"Return, you save it!"
"Fang Yinghui, you save it!"
This time, Lan Xue'er also looked at King Xiao with great sympathy.
"How could the big ice cube kidnap the master and negotiate with you? I don't know what you think! There is a very important thing for the big ice cubes to find you. ”
As soon as she heard that the master was gone, Lan Xue'er reported to Yun Ranyang without saying a word. Yun Ranyang knew that Weiyang had been kidnapped, and although he was anxious, he immediately contacted the information he got yesterday.
Yesterday, Yun Ranyang received a secret report from the border. His subordinates found that someone was on the border of the Three Kingdoms, transporting a large amount of grain and grass materials through the official roads in the territory of Xihua Kingdom, approaching in the direction of Changling Kingdom.
And, in the afternoon, I found Fan Shishu's figure in the capital of Changling Kingdom!
As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, who is secretly transferring troops?
Combined with this information, his father Fang Jinshu was also taken aback, and immediately made up his mind that he must not let Zhongshan Guo take advantage of the time when he was fighting with Fang Jince's sandpiper and clam to catch China Mountain off guard.
Therefore, Yun Ranyang sent Lan Xue'er to invite King Xiao!
King Xiao accepted Yun Ranyang's invitation, and came to Drunken Immortal Tower with Leng Qiaoruo non-stop, and came to Tianzi No. 1 on the second floor.
"I heard you want to see me?" King Xiao really didn't treat himself as an outsider, sat opposite Yun Ranyang, poured a cup of tea and drank it.
Seeing that he was still in the mood to drink tea, Yun Ranyang snatched the teacup.
"The soldiers are coming to the city, are you still in the mood to drink tea?"
"Soldiers coming to the city? What are you talking about? King Xiao was shocked, and a pair of phoenix eyes widened.
Leng Qiaoruo was also taken aback by his words, and roared at Yun Ranyang.
"Yun Ranyang, don't be alarmist, what soldiers are coming to the city? Hurry up and make it clear! ”
For these people who realized it later, Yun Ranyang could only shake his head helplessly, and then took out a secret report from his sleeve and handed it to King Xiao.
"The grain and grass of Zhongshan Kingdom will be transported to the territory of Changling Kingdom through the border fortress of Xihua Kingdom, which is enough for 200,000 troops!"
This information really frightened King Xiao, and his hands holding the information were trembling.
"Two hundred thousand! That's a lot! King Xiao gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, and his head was covered with beads of sweat.
"Zhongshan Guocai made a show of goodwill to Changling Guohe, why did he secretly transfer troops in a blink of an eye? Return, don't you believe him! Leng Qiaoruo was still skeptical.
Maybe he just wants to stir up the relationship between Changling and Zhongshan!
For these two people, Yun Ranyang didn't have much time to explain to them, so he said openly.
"King Xiao, the situation in the Changling Kingdom is grim, and the imperial city and the frontier are facing a huge crisis at the same time. The crown prince Fang Jinshu arrested those officials who had followed him, and his purpose was just to force them to tell the truth of the year and clear his grievances. ”
"However, he doesn't want to watch the Changling Kingdom have been in a state of internal friction and let the Zhongshan Kingdom have a chance, so he is willing to release those officials and wish you a helping hand to jointly repel the invasion of the Zhongshan Kingdom."
King Xiao couldn't believe his ears, and looked at Leng Qiaoruo for a long time before slowly coming to his senses.
He ...... Why? King Xiao asked incredulously.
Yun Ranyang sighed heavily and replied, "Maybe it's just that I don't want to see the Changling Kingdom invaded by the Zhongshan Kingdom!" He...... After all, it's a member of the Changling Guofang family! ”
And him...... Fang Hua is tired, even if he doesn't dare to show himself in this identity now, but what flows in his veins is the blood of the Fang family.
The abolished prince, who had been wronged for ten years, was framed, hunted down, and encircled by his relatives, and struggled helplessly to steal his life in that barren and barren land in the desert, just so that one day he could wash away his grievances and return to his country with dignity.
However, just when he was about to succeed in forcing out, the mastermind behind the framed him, he chose to give up!
Not for anything else, just because he saw that Zhongshan Kingdom secretly transferred troops to endanger the border defense of Changling Kingdom; I saw Zhongshan Guo's attempt to take advantage of the civil strife in Changling and take advantage of the fire to rob.
As a member of the Changling Kingdom, he did not allow foreign enemies to encroach on the territory of his country and kill and enslave his people, even though the country had long since denied his identity!
Seeing that Fang Jinshu could have such a mind and courage, King Xiao felt a little sour in his heart, and at the same time sighed to himself!
If it were another party that encountered the same situation, he did not dare to guarantee that he could put aside his personal grievances and join forces with his enemies to fight the enemy, just in exchange for the stability of the country.
Perhaps, it is difficult for people in the center of huge power not to be driven by **, when the power that can control everything is at your fingertips, it will hook the deepest hidden evil in people's hearts.
indiscriminate killing of innocents, fratricide, killing of fathers and mothers, and murder of husbands and wives......
In order to obtain the supreme right and satisfy their selfish desires that control everything, many people have committed the sin of destroying human nature.
And the prince, who has been deposed for many years, gave up the opportunity to clear his name at a time when the country was in danger.
Perhaps, this will be his only chance in this life!
The 200,000 army of Zhongshan is indeed not a small number, and the army of King Xiao stationed on the border, plus the Su family's army, is only 100,000.
A few months ago, he stirred up the Xihua Kingdom, and it is estimated that the emperor of the Xihua Kingdom will not spare him easily. If Zhongshan and Changling go to war, Xihua will also take advantage of the fire to rob, so he has to guard against the border of Xihua!
I thought that Zhongshan and Changling had a good relationship and could temporarily balance the situation in the three kingdoms, but who knew that Zhongshan Kingdom had a princess and dowry materials, but he wanted to take advantage of Changling's failure to slow down and beat a rake, which was really despicable!
Now the imperial city is not peaceful, and the garrison in the south of the city under Cui Gang is obviously controlled by the Queen Mother, and it is also in collusion with the King of Changyi.
Once the imperial city is in chaos, even if he has the support of the Su family's army, it will be very difficult to deal with it.
At this time, Xiaowang really needs a helper!
"If he can help Changling Kingdom through the difficulties, I will clear him of the charge of killing the king and usurping the throne."
Snapking gives the biggest promise!
Yun Ranyang hooked his lips, stretched out his hand and patted King Xiao's shoulder and said.
"King Xiao, more and more like a man!"
For some reason, he was not disgusted by this move, and he had a sense of déjà vu.
Glancing at the two men in front of him, Leng Qiaoruo was a little confused!
What's going on?
The first prince is not making trouble, he wants to release all the officials who have been kidnapped, and he has to help King Xiao prepare for the Zhongshan Kingdom?
This King Xiao's Royal Highness still wants to help Fang Jinshu rehabilitate?
What's going on?
Leng Qiaoruo instantly felt that he was going to go insane!
"Comeback, are you alright? Don't drive you crazy because of a woman! Whether that information is true or false is a matter of two words! You can't be on the clouds! ”
His reminder King Xiao never thought of it? He will know whether the information is true or false as soon as he verifies it.
Besides, if they made up a false information to deceive him, then why did Fang Jinshu release those officials himself?
You must know that the Queen Mother and the Cui family are already in chaos, and it won't be long before they will mess up and completely force those officials who have followed Fang Jinshu to rebel!
As long as those officials defect and tell the things of the year, the fact that Fang Jinshu was framed will also be revealed to the world.
If the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and even the people of the world, learn the truth of the matter, it will definitely cause an uproar, and it may also cause turmoil in the court and shake the society of the country.
Although the queen did not explicitly say whether it was planned by the Queen Mother, this matter is already obvious, and you can know it when you see the Queen Mother's reaction to the missing officials!
King Xiao knows better than anyone else in his heart!
When the truth is revealed, perhaps, there will be many people who support Fang Jinshu and denounce the crimes of the Queen Mother and the Emperor Jince!
And his father, Emperor Fang Jince, whether he knows about framing the crown prince and killing the first emperor, and whether he is involved in it or not, he will be blamed by the world, and he will be the one who bears all the infamy!
If things really develop to that point, then Fang Jinshu and other parties will come back to the point of life and death!
Now, Fang Jinshu took the initiative to give up, but rehabilitated him by himself. In this way, at least the secret of the year will not be revealed to the world.
His father and grandmother will not be criticized by the world, and they will never be able to turn over.
Because King Xiao is only responsible for washing away Fang Jinshu's grievances.
Find a random person who participated in the framing of the former prince, stand up and face all the charges, and tell the world that this person is the mastermind behind the framing of the prince back then.
In this way, he will be able to protect the reputation of his father and grandmother!
After reading the contract prepared by the first prince Fang Jinshu, King Xiao picked up his pen and said earnestly.
"Whatever the reason, civil strife is always the most exhausting act of national strength, since everyone is surnamed Fang, let's defend against foreign enemies together!"
Without hesitation, he signed his name on the contract and stamped it with the seal of the commander of the whole army.
