Chapter 68: Accomplices
Pei Chang lay on the ground angrily, covered with scars, and had a bloody wound on his back, and he could barely see his human appearance.
Tuoba Gui glanced at him, and was about to speak, when he heard Tuoba Yu's voice suddenly come, "Father Khan's subordinates are merciful, I am afraid that there is another plan behind this matter." ”
Yu Ruoxu breathed a sigh of relief, and after Tuoba Yu finished talking to her, he stood beside Tuoba Gui, frowning and not saying a word. Later, she disappeared for a while, and Yu Ruoxu couldn't help but want to speak out several times, if it wasn't for Tuoba Mu'er pulling on the side, she would have rushed up a long time ago.
"What did you say?" Tuoba Kei looked back at him, "Another plan?" ”
Tuoba Yu walked to Pei Yuanyuan's side, and his eyebrows were almost twisted into a Sichuan character, "Second brother is so ruthless, don't you want to stay alive at all?" ”
"What are you talking about? This kid slandered his mother, and stole the military plane, and it was already a great grace not to burn him directly. Tuoba Hong was a little angry, "Third brother, what do you mean when you say that you have another plan?" ”
Tuoba Yu didn't speak, and stretched out his hand to the back of Pei Yuan's neck.
Tuoba Hong's face suddenly changed, "Third brother, you-"
"Father, Khan, please look." Tuoba Yu had a bloodstained silver needle in his hand, "Just now I always thought that this prisoner was a little strange, it turned out that this silver needle was making trouble." After that, he glanced at Tuoba Hong, "Second brother, this silver needle brother looks very familiar." ”
"What are you talking about?!" A little nervousness appeared on Tuoba Hong's face, but then he was disguised, and he still looked like he had been greatly wronged, "You mean I deliberately used a silver needle on the prisoner to force him to say these things?" “
Tuoba Yu sneered a few times, "What, isn't it? ”
"You!" Tuoba Hong was angry, and immediately said to Tuoba Gui, "Father Khan, my son worked hard to catch this fine work, but he was framed by the third brother like this, and asked Father Khan to investigate!" “
"The third." Tuoba Hong frowned, "What's going on?" ”
"The prisoner's eyes were glazed, and he kept repeating the same words, and the son felt a little strange in his heart, so he asked his men to inquire about the whole thing." Tuoba Yu said quietly, his gaze turned to Tuoba Hong, "Second brother, this prisoner was caught three days ago, why didn't you send it to Father Khan immediately, but detain him for so many days?" ”
"Naturally, I have to interrogate his identity before I can tell my father Khan." Tuoba Hong Zhengse said, "Father Khan, my son did catch this prisoner three days ago, he was wearing our humble clothes, and he was sneaking around the royal court in the middle of the night and didn't know what he was doing, and it happened that his son was in charge of patrolling at that time, and he felt that something was wrong when he saw him like that, so he sent someone to arrest him and interrogate him, and it turned out that this person was also a tough guy, and it took a lot of effort to make him speak." “
"Second brother didn't let him open his mouth voluntarily, did he?" Tuoba Yu smiled lightly, "I heard that the third brother summoned the shaman last night, I don't know what kind of ritual he did?" ”
Tuoba Hong suddenly couldn't hold his breath, "You sent someone to spy on me?" ”
"I don't dare." Tuoba Yu shook his head, "Father Khan also knows, I have always slept lightly, and I can't sleep at the slightest movement." But last night the second brother's tent was really noisy, especially the sound of bells...... The younger brother was woken up in the middle of the night, and he was a little annoyed, so he called the guards around him to take a look. ”
"Nonsense, where did we use the bell......" Takubahiro immediately stopped, and the surroundings suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
"Father Khan, I ......" Tuoba Hong's face flushed, "Son ......"
Tuoba Gui's eyes were a little sharp, "What are you doing looking for a shaman in the middle of the night?" ”
"Son......" Tuoba Gui was a little distracted, and Tuoba Gui obviously lost his patience, "Invite the shaman over!" I'm going to ask you in person what you did last night! “
Yu Ruoxu knew that the Xianbei royal family had an order, and the shaman could only obey the Khan's orders, and now Tuoba Hong was able to ask the shaman in private, this move undoubtedly touched Tuoba Gui's bottom line.
"Father Khan!" Tuoba Hong knelt heavily on the ground, "It's the son's fault, this fine work is too hard-mouthed, the son can't, and he wants to share his father's worries, so I asked the shaman to prick his acupuncture points with silver needles, so that he can spit out the truth earlier!" “
Tuoba Gui said coldly, "Is he telling the truth, or is it the truth that you taught him?" ”
Tuoba Hong hurriedly defended, "Father Khan! This person is really a fine work sent by Liang Jin, even if his father Khan doesn't believe his words, but the waist card on his body is true! “
Someone on the side brought a jasper waist card, Tuoba Gui looked at it carefully, and said, "Let's see if that person is still angry, I will ask in person!" “
The guard brought a basin of water, and a "whoosh-" sound splashed on Pei Changyuan's body, Pei Changchang trembled, and struggled to prop up his eyelids, "You-"
Tuoba Gui walked up to him and squatted down, "What are you coming to Xianbei for?" ”
Pei Changyuan smiled weakly, angry, "No why." ”
Tuoba Kei pulled out the knife on his waist and stabbed it into the wound on his arm, "You're not afraid of death?" ”
Pei Changchang snorted, almost fainting in pain, "You...... Kill me! “
"Yes, of course you are not afraid of death." Tuoba Gui smiled, pulled out the knife, and then grabbed Princess Jiangcheng's throat, "What about her?" Has your master ever sued you to protect this woman's thoughtfulness to the death? ”
Princess Jiangcheng was held in her hand by Tuoba Gui, and her face showed a painful look, "Khan ......"
Pei Changyuan smiled, "You recognized the wrong person...... I don't know her. ”
"Really?" The strength in Tuoba Gui's hand increased a little, and Princess Jiangcheng gradually began to breathe, Tuoba Yu was a little unbearable, "Father Khan ......"
Tuoba Gui glanced at him, and Tuoba Yu swallowed the words in his throat raw.
"Your own wife, if you want to kill it, what does it have to do with me?" Pei Yuanyuan's voice was almost inaudible, and Yu Ruoxu heard his weak voice, and her heart tightened.
Tuoba Gui saw that he looked dying, but he couldn't say anything, so he dragged Princess Jiangcheng to the side, and the blade pressed into her face, "You think I don't dare?" ”
"Then you can do it." Pei Yuanyuan's eyes couldn't open anymore, "It's just so good that I can also have a companion on Huangquan Road." “
"You!"
"Father Khan!" Tuoba Yu knelt directly in front of Tuoba Gui, "The queen is the princess of the Han family, and my father Khan has to consider the relationship with the imperial court, not to mention that this fine work was controlled by the shaman's silver needle before, and it is difficult to distinguish whether what is said is true or false, the queen is very likely to be wronged, and please think twice about my father Khan!" “
Tuoba Gui squinted, looked at Princess Jiangcheng's frightened face, and then looked at Tuoba Yu and Tuoba Hong, who were kneeling in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "You guys! Give me all to the tent! I'm going to ask them one by one! Including the fine work! “
A good spring hunt celebration is over.
Tuoba Yu glanced back at Yu Ruoxu and nodded lightly at her. Yu Ruoxu felt that her back was covered in cold sweat, and her whole body was soft, and she almost collapsed.
Tuoba Mu'er stood beside her and asked, "Ruoxu, what is your relationship with that fine work?" Why does the third brother seem to know him? And just now the third brother said, is he your person? What does that mean? “
Yu Ruoxu came back to her senses, and at that time she agreed with Princess Jiangcheng that she could not tell her identity, for fear that Tuoba Gui would use her to blackmail Yu Zhongjun. So, even Zhu'er doesn't know who she really is.
"Princess, do you remember how I got here?" Yu Ruoxu sighed.
"Aren't you a prisoner captured by the eldest brother from Bingzhou City?"
"Yes." Yu Ruoxu nodded, "My family is also a medium-sized family in Bingzhou City, my father has cherished me since I was a child, and when he saw that Bingzhou City was not safe, he assigned me a personal guard." “
"So...... That person is your bodyguard?! Tuoba Mu'er's eyes widened, "Did he come for you?" “
"That's right." Yu Ruoxu said, "My family was very anxious when they learned that I was missing, so they sent him to find me, but unfortunately it was mistaken as a small work. “
"But how can he have a waist card for joining the military mansion?" Tuoba Mu'er was a little incomprehensible, "Is it difficult, you are a ...... of the military government"
Yu Ruoxu hurriedly interrupted her, "The princess misunderstood, the waist card is not his, I am afraid that the kings deliberately took a waist card to fill the number in order to do enough tricks, and then planted it on him." “
Tuoba Mu'er nodded as if he didn't understand, "I see...... That is, the second brother deliberately wanted to frame the queen mother? “
"That's right." Yu Ruoxu was a little puzzled, "By the way, have the kings and queens had any festivals before?" “
"I don't know." Tuoba Mu'er frowned, "Recently, the second brother has often gone to find the queen mother, and I don't know what he is talking about, but I heard the guard say that his face is not very good every time he comes out." ”
"To find the Queen?" Yu Ruoxu's doubts were even more prevalent, "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I'm afraid that the kings have a request for the queen." ”
"What three-pack shop?" Tuoba Mu'er was confused, "You're saying something I don't understand again." ”
Yu Ruoxu was so troubled by her, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a smile, "It's just that you don't come to the door if you have nothing to do...... Princess, I want you to inquire about the news, I am afraid that something big will happen tonight. ”
Tuoba Mu'er nodded, "Wrap it up on me!" “
Yu Ruoxu returned to the tent, feeling a little nervous, and walked around with her hands pinched. What happened tonight was too dramatic, Pei Changchang suddenly appeared, but was used by Tuoba Hong as a tool against Princess Jiangcheng, and Tuoba Yu shifted Tuoba Gui's attention to the shaman's silver needle, which made Tuoba Hong suffer a dumb loss. And Pei Changchang ...... She felt a pang in her heart, and she didn't know if he would survive.
Something must have happened between Tuoba Hong and Princess Jiangcheng to suddenly attack at this time.
and Liang Jin...... Did he find out about her? That's why Pei Changchang came to her?
"Ruoxu!" Tuoba Mu'er ran in breathlessly, "Your guard has been killed!" “
