Chapter 261: I Did It
Since King Jing answered happily, Huang Qiong was also straightforward. After turning around and pouring a glass of wine for King Jing, Huang Qiong sat down opposite King Jing again and said, "Second brother, these things are not asked by the younger brother, but by Dai Tian. There are some things that my father wants to know more. Therefore, the younger brother hopes that the second brother can tell the truth to the younger brother. ”
"First, how did Guancheng County Cheng under the rule of Zhengzhou die? Is this person really as he said in his plea, because he received a large amount of money and goods from you to cover up the truth about your fiefdom for you? Did he die to apologize for his crimes, or was he killed by his second brother? How was this person's identity revealed, and how did you find out? ”
"The identity of this Guancheng County Cheng must not be a secret here in the second brother. And the second brother was able to find out his true identity, which is quite remarkable. And this is what my father wants to know the most. The North and South Zhenfu Division, the importance to the father and the emperor doesn't need to be said more here. In this matter, I also hope that the second brother can tell the truth to the younger brother. ”
"Second, why did the second brother start a rebellion during his mother's funeral? However, in this matter, the second brother has already given the younger brother an answer, so there is no need to answer. But the younger brother still wanted to ask why the second brother was so obedient and held hostage by him since he had the ability to get rid of his control, and finally caused a rebellion. Second brother, don't tell me it's all for Concubine Shen. ”
"This reason is that I believe it, will the second brother believe it himself? Second brother, what I want to know is the truth. Because it's not just me, it's what my father wants to know. As the saying goes, knowing the son is better than the father. What kind of character his son is, his father still knows it. It is precisely because he knows who you are that my father does not believe that you will do such a rebellious thing during your mother's funeral. ”
"This third thing is what the younger brother wants to know, and I also hope that the second brother can tell the truth to the younger brother. Second brother's subordinates. No, to be precise, it should be the rebels, since they have already decided to raise troops to rebel, why do they hold back and watch the great fighters pass by? If the rebels had arrived at Tiger Pass a day earlier, I am afraid that the current situation would have already been eroded. ”
"Fourth, the case of Song Gongliang, the former herd supervisor of Suzhou, has nothing to do with the second brother. It is rumored that before Song Gongliang's case, he had met with the people sent by his second brother. I just want to know if the second brother was involved in this case. Song Gongliang was forced to commit suicide, including the factor of having a second brother. ”
"Fourth, and most critical, is the issue. Who is the person in the second brother's mouth who manipulates all this behind the scenes, in order to get rid of the person who threatens him, and even does not hesitate to do such a big rebellion? Since the second brother was held hostage like this, he just said that he knew too many secrets about this person. I won't tell my brother now, you still don't know who this person is. ”
"I also know that this man can't escape one of our brothers. Although the identity of this person, the second brother has already roughly guessed it now, but I hope that the second brother can tell me the identity of this person in person. With the second brother being well-informed, the younger brother's family affairs must not be able to hide from the second brother. The importance of Sister Yao to the younger brother, the second brother should also know. ”
"The second brother is sincere to Concubine Shen, and even in order to protect their mother and son, he did not hesitate to take the whole family, presumably the second brother is also a person who values love and righteousness. There are some things, the younger brother thinks the second brother will understand, right? Sister Yao's death was a bloody thorn in the heart of the younger brother. If this thorn is not removed, the little brother can be said to be unable to sleep. ”
has always been gentle and elegant before, even if the things leaking out of his mouth are earth-shattering, he is still Huang Qiong, who has a flat expression and has not moved. suddenly became a little aggressive, so that King Jing took a while to get used to it. However, when he heard Huang Qiong's last words, King Jing was silent.
After a while, he said, "Ninth brother, I really can't explain the few things you asked. First of all, my father installed a watchman in my fiefdom, and I know that. But I really don't know anything about the identity of this person. Because in my opinion, whether I am a tyrannical conquest or a common man, as long as I don't raise an army, there is no need to be afraid of being watched by others. ”
"When my father found out, he reprimanded me at most and ordered me to return the land. Because of the clans in the world, that's not like this? I didn't see my father deal with that. As long as my things don't go unnoticed by my father, I have nothing to worry about being watched. ”
"I did recruit some private soldiers, but these private soldiers were not hidden in Guancheng County, but hidden in the deep mountains and old forests in Xinzheng. I'm not that stupid to put this kind of headless thing right under the noses of the people who spy on me. Although Guancheng County Cheng is a person from the Fusi of the North and South Towns, Xinzheng is my person from the county magistrate to the county magistrate, the county lieutenant, and even the officials. ”
"What's more, I don't have the ability to infiltrate the North and South Zhenfu Division. Because I know that on weekdays, my father doesn't care how we fight. But there are a few bottom lines that must not be touched. As long as we touch it, no matter how much our father loves us on weekdays, he will not forgive us. ”
"You asked me if the county man really committed suicide in fear of crime, or was he killed by someone. Ninth brother, the only thing I can tell you about this is that the death of this county Cheng should be deliberately planted by that person, and it has aroused my father's real suspicion of me. That county is not dead, how can he stir up this muddy water even more? ”
"That county is not dead, how can he try to be poor? Now that we have come to this point, is there any big difference between pleading guilty to one more crime and one less crime? I did it, I will never deny it, I didn't do it, and I won't admit it. In this matter, there is no need for me to deceive the ninth brother, let alone my father. ”
"As for why I am willing to be held hostage by him, the root is still in Concubine Shen's mother and son. There are some things that you can't forget if you can forget them. It's easy for me to kill the people he has planted next to me, but I can't solve it all at once. Because I can't fully grasp how many people are around me, and what he has planted as an eyeliner. ”
"Last night, the reason why I mobilized the only strength I can mobilize now was to strike a blow at him. It's because I found out that the people he installed were already ready to attack me for half a day. It can even be said that the day when the army of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion arrives at the Tiger Prison Pass is the date of my death. I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want to be poisoned or strangled to death by a three-foot white silk. ”
"I am the son of my father, and I am a son of the Heavenly Family. Even if you die, you have to die with dignity, and you can't die in the hands of a few minions. In this way, I will tell him that my life is only myself who can decide life and death except for my father and queen mother. Not to mention anyone else, even he can't. Even if I don't have more days to live, I can't die at his hands. ”
"Before the concession, I was a rat trap. But if I decide to make a last-ditch effort, I'd definitely rather break it than destroy it. Even if he dies, he will tear off a layer of skin from him. This 13th Iron Guard Battalion was created by him under my banner. In addition to spying on me, more of his energy is focused on Kyohinai. ”
In his opinion, I, who is a dead tiger, don't need to waste so many people watching. This is almost seventy percent of the strength he used in the Central Plains to deal with disobedient people in Beijing. Although I fought to the death, it was equivalent to removing one of his arms. At least around the capital, he can't recover without a few years of revival. ”
When he said this, King Jing's eyes showed an extremely rare trace of sharpness. Looking at King Jing in front of him, Huang Qiong was silent in thought. I just quietly picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass. He knew that the best thing he could do now was to listen quietly here.
"As for my hesitation, the loss of the plane? Ninth brother, do you think he will make this army a success? He wouldn't even let this rebel army pass through the Tiger Prison. This rebellion is just a step he takes to get rid of me and King Duan. The queen mother's illness was so serious that he couldn't wait. ”
"Because he knows that once the queen mother dies, my father will summon me to Beijing for funeral no matter what. If I enter Beijing, I'm afraid that some things will not be under his control. Therefore, he simply came to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary. I made this rebellion in order to kill two birds with one stone and get rid of me openly. ”
"So he won't let this rebellion succeed, and even he won't let this rebel army pass. As for me, I didn't know what they were going to do until their army left Zhengzhou. Don't look at me as the nominal commander of this army, in fact, before last night, I couldn't even be a fart master. ”
"What's more, the commander he used was actually our cousin. Although our cousin is from a family of military generals, he is a person who is outside and ruined. He must also know something about his affairs in the border army. This person is greedy for money and lustful, and he has always been the first to do things, and he is a master who only wants to take advantage and refuses to eat half of the loss. ”
"That man must have bought this guy off with a lot of money and made him commander-in-chief. He is the son of the eldest princess of Xincai, and before his father ascended the throne, he was taken care of by the eldest princess of Xincai. Therefore, this cousin, in the border army, repeatedly defeated, killed good and risky things, his father and the emperor have repeatedly endured. ”
"It is estimated that our cousin dared to come forward this time in addition to greedy for a large sum of money. is also because of his father's repeated connivance before, thinking that even if he loses the battle this time, his father will at most remove him from office, and he will definitely not kill him. This person uses this rice bucket-like person to lead the army, just to do enough in this scene. Otherwise, how can the people of the world believe it, how can the emperor believe it? ”
"As for the matter of the Suzhou herdsmen and the superintendents, I did it. Because Song Gongliang was originally my person, I put him in Suzhou Qun Shepherd from the Qingshui Yamen of Sinong Temple, to put it bluntly, it was for business. There are soldiers in the hands of the herdsmen, although there are not many, but the size is also a force. Moreover, it is not to return to Longyou to pacify the envoys, and it is close to the Uighurs, so it is more convenient to act. ”
"Ninth brother, do you think that if I become a puppet in his hands, I will really be so willing? I haven't moved for the past few years, just looking for an opportunity. Especially when I was already aware of some of his thoughts beforehand, I couldn't help but think about it. Even if you can't kill him with one bite, at least let him act with scruples. ”
"So, I set up this strategy. Because I know that several herdsmen in the northwest are under the close supervision of the imperial court. There is a bit of turmoil over there, and the father's side is bound to deal with it immediately. It's just that Song Gongliang is still too careful, as soon as Song Gongliang enters Beijing, I can attract the attention of my father by buying a horse in private. ”
"It's just that I didn't expect that in the end, it was still half a move. I was so meticulous, but he still found out. Coupled with the fact that the prince intervened in the middle, Song Gongliang couldn't bear the pressure and actually committed suicide. Otherwise, even if I can't bite off a piece of his flesh that time, I can still hurt his vitality. ”
