124 Wrong cause and effect of the past is in vain, and the past is set to pay for the dust

"Huh?" Everyone in the room was shocked again, staring at Liu Ruqing in a daze, not knowing what he had discovered.

Liu Ruqing calmed down his emotions before saying: "Do you still remember that the Holy Decree ordered General Li not to withdraw his troops, but the Holy Decree came late? ”

"Remember, I almost delayed the military affairs that time." Zhang San recalled, "I remember it was from Zhongshu Province...... The surname Xu was caused by the dereliction of duty. ”

That case was tried by Feng Che, and he naturally remembered it more clearly. He added: "It's Xu Changqing, but the official has always felt that there should be an instigator behind that case." It's a pity that Xu Changqing committed suicide on the spot. ”

"Could it be that the mastermind is Sun Yi?" Zhang San guessed.

Liu Ruqing nodded, "Nine times out of ten, it's him." Since he became vice minister, Sun Yi has never bothered to ask about such a trivial matter as the issuance of holy decrees. But that day, he came early in the morning to inquire, and he seemed very happy when he heard that Shao Xiang had left the capital. Later, he asked me when the edict was drafted, whether it would be signed or not, and he said three words "good". Words and deeds are very different from usual. ”

Feng Che stroked his beard and thought for a while, then asked, "When Sun Yi came, how long had the Holy Decree been issued?" ”

Liu Ruqing recalled: "As soon as he sent it, he came. ”

Feng Che analyzed: "So, assuming that it is Sun Yi, he has time to chase Xu Changqing and intercept the holy decree." ”

Liu Ruqing also said: "Xu Changqing has been in Zhongshu Province for many years and has never made a mistake. But that time, Sun Yi asked about the holy decree, and the holy decree was exactly wrong. ”

The time of the crime can be considered to be right, so the motive for the crime ...... Feng Che speculated: "General Li has mastered Sun Yi's secret, so Sun Yi is eager to kill him." He deliberately issued the decree late, just to get Li Hongyi to withdraw his troops from Jincheng. If you advance, you will be defeated and killed, and if you retreat, you can also anger the saints. This is really a clever move. ”

Liu Ruqing remembered what Shao An had said to him in his analysis of the military situation, and he said: "Shao Yuan also said that withdrawing troops from Yongjing County is not the best policy, if he hadn't found the 'Huangquan Road', General Li's battle might not have been so simple to win." ”

"Have you ever told Shao Xiang about this?" Feng Che asked.

Liu Ruqing shook her head, "No." He was critically ill at the time, and I didn't dare bother. ”

Feng Che sighed: "If you had told him at the time, Shao Xiang could at least remind the emperor before leaving." Sun Yi will not be so smooth and obedient to the position of prime minister. ”

"Shao An couldn't protect himself at that time, where did he manage so much." Zhang San said distressedly, "You don't think about Shao An. ”

When Liu Ruqing heard this, he finally treated Zhang San a little gentlely, and it seemed that Zhang San had finally reformed and no longer fought against Shao An everywhere.

The stakes were very high, and Liu Ruqing naturally didn't dare to stop them from seeing Shao An, so he had to personally guide them the way. Feng Che sat in a sedan chair, and Zhang San and Liu Ruqing rode horses. Of course, the hidden guards of the three teams are secretly protecting. A group of people walked mightily on the mountain path, and the villagers in the countryside had never seen this pomp and circumstance, but they were startled.

When Liu Ruqing took them to Shao'an's residence, Feng Che and Zhang Sancai looked at the small courtyard in surprise. I didn't expect that a person like Shao An, who was born in a wealthy family, could stay quiet and stay in the poor countryside for five years. If you look closer, this courtyard is not big, let alone luxurious, but it is quiet.

Ah Rui was boiling medicine for Shao An, and when he saw Liu Ruqing bringing a group of people, he was so frightened that he almost knocked over the medicine bowl. He looked at the person in front of him, isn't this Lord Feng from the Criminal Department, and the Lord of the Guard Division?

"You ...... You ......," Ari shuddered, unable to speak.

Liu Ruqing gave Ah Rui a reassuring look and said to him: "A few adults have something to do with your master, you go to the courtyard to wait first." ”

Ah Rui nodded, watching Liu Ruqing take Zhang San and Feng Che into the house, his heart was full of surprise and puzzlement.

Liu Ruqing asked the two to sit in the hall for a while, and he went to the study to find Shao An. Shao An was slightly surprised when he heard this: "Feng Zhiyuan and Brother Zhang are here?" Could it be that something is wrong? ”

"This ...... It's ......a long story," Liu Ruqing thought about it, and it was better to let Feng Che say it himself, so he said, "You better ask them." ”

Shao An glanced at the nervous Liu Ruqing, and lightly ordered, "Please let them in." ”

As soon as he entered the door, Feng Che bowed to Shao An and said respectfully: "How is Shao Xiang?" ”

Shao An turned sideways to avoid it, "I'm no longer the prime minister, Lord Feng's gift, I can't stand it." ”

"Shao An." Zhang San couldn't hold back his words, and said quickly, "Your brother has recovered his memory." ”

When Shao An heard this, his reaction was very indifferent, as if this was not some earth-shattering news, and he just let out a soft "oh".

"Oh?" Zhang San looked at the person with a calm face in front of him in surprise, his enthusiasm was extinguished by Shao An's words, Zhang San completely lost his temper, "Why are you so calm?" ”

"There is nothing in this world that can be kept secret forever, and the truth will be known sooner or later." Before leaving Beijing, Shao An had expected that five years later would he leave a letter to appease his brother.

Zhang San continued: "Li Hongyi's memory was not recovered by himself, if it wasn't for Feng Che to reveal the secret, you brothers don't know when they will be able to recognize each other." ”

It was actually Feng Che who found out? Shao An looked at Feng Che on the side and said with a smile: "This is unexpected, Lord Feng is really observant and judgmental like a god." ”

"I don't dare to be, I just hope that Shao Xiang will stay for a while, and don't scold me for acting impulsively."

Hearing Feng Che say this, and thinking that his brother didn't come to see him, Shao An immediately said: "It seems that you came here this time not only because of Li Hongyi's recovery of memory. ”

Zhang San nodded, "Yes, something happened in the capital." The emperor restored your position, and made him the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, holding the military talisman, and commanding the world's soldiers and horses. ”

This news finally shocked Shao An, the emperor is so cautious and never relinquishes power, he actually wants to serve as a general himself, is he crazy?

"This ...... How dare I? ”

"You deserve it, you are Kong Ming alive, and you have no last resort." Zhang San suddenly knelt down and said loudly, "Please accept my worship!" ”

"Brother Zhang...... Y-What are you doing? Shao An hurriedly got up and grabbed Zhang San's hand to drag him up. But Zhang San raised his face, and tears flashed in his eyes, "Shao An, we were wrong back then, and we were exiled for two years because we were sorry for you." ”

"What?" Shao An was stunned for a moment, exiled, what a distant thing it was, why did Zhang San suddenly mention this past?

Zhang San calmed down his excitement and began to say: "Back then, there was no problem with your tactics. It was Sun Yi, who was captured by the enemy and confessed Li Hongyi's marching route. You're not wrong, Sun Yi, he's the culprit! ”

"Sun Yi?" Shao An recalled the past and wondered, "How did he know the route of the march?" ”

"Oops." Zhang San hated iron and said, "It's Li Hongyi, he actually easily leaked military secrets to outsiders. ”

"Is it my brother? Why did he say it? ”

Zhang San touched the tip of his nose, "Because...... He didn't understand what you were saying, so he went to ask Sun Yi for advice. ”

"I see." Shao An shook his head and smiled bitterly, he was young and vigorous, thinking that if he taught everything he had learned to his brother, Li Hongyi would be able to become the number one military general in the world. Looking back now, I was really a bit of a seedling at the beginning, and what I told my brother was too complicated, so it's no wonder that Li Hongyi couldn't understand it after listening to it a few times.

Shao An could also guess the rest of the matter, Gao Wei has always been prejudiced against literati and has never protected the prison army. And Sun Yi, a scholar who was powerless, fell into the hands of Xiou, where could he be tortured.

Zhang San looked at Shao An uneasily, and said cautiously: "I know that Sun Yi's crime is unforgivable, and I also know that you hate him." We're here to avenge you. ”

"I don't hate him, and I don't hate anyone. I want to thank God for finally being able to go to him with dignity and call him, 'Brother'! Shao An shook his head slowly, at this moment, the clouds were light and light, his heart had never been so relaxed and comfortable as it is now, no hatred and no regrets, and he was extremely relieved.

Do you hate Sun Yi for revealing military information? Hate Gao Wei for not sending someone to protect Sun Yi? Didn't the emperor know right from wrong? In the dark, they are interlocked, who can Shao An hate?

So Shao An let go, he, no one hates.

Zhang San suddenly wanted to cry for Shao An. Shao An has borne so much and has been silently atoning for his sins. He remembered what Shao An said back then, all he wanted was to wash away the sins of his life and go to the ground cleanly.

"Brother Zhang, what are you doing with a bitter face, as if someone owes you money." Shao An glanced at Zhang San with disgust, and after half-jokingly teasing him, he continued to ask, "Did my brother say anything after he recovered his memory?" ”

Zhang San held back his tears fiercely and said: "Say that you are not righteous enough, since you recognize him as a brother, you should talk to him about anything, and don't take yourself to resist." He also said that he was a brother for one day and a brother for life. As brothers, they don't care who owes whom or who pays whom. If you dare to be polite to him, he will be polite to you. ”

A brother for one day, a brother for life. This is not like what Li Hongyi can say. When was he so good at writing? Shao An looked at Zhang San suspiciously, "Is there anything else?" ”

Zhang San nodded and continued: "He said that he was sorry for you and had misunderstood you for so many years. ”

Shao An smiled indifferently after hearing this, but Feng Che suddenly couldn't sit still, got up and said, "Shao Xiang, the lower officials should also say sorry to you." I used to ...... I ......"

Shao An knew what he was going to say, so he hurriedly stopped what he was going to say, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to have a drink?" ”

Feng Che smiled: "Shao Xiang invited, dare not drink?" ”

"Okay, bring me the big bowl." As soon as Shao An finished speaking, Liu Ruqing went to fetch the wine and poured it for the three of them.

"Drink this cup!" Shao An raised his glass and said.

The three of them drank it all, and the glass of wine was bitter. A misunderstanding that a woman struggles to explain, a man only needs a glass of wine.
