() "You're still lying to me? Your younger brother Yan Chongyu has already confessed, this way has already harmed countless people's money, and even now, you are still stubborn? ”

Qi Yuan's face was angry, and the teacup in his hand was clenched tightly in his hand.

"Prince, Prince." Yan Qiong hurriedly kowtowed and admitted her mistake, "I really didn't know that he kidnapped you, if I knew, I wouldn't have let him do this kind of thing, besides, I was also confused for a while, and I was guilty of conniving at my younger brother to do this kind of thing, I just hope that the prince will be extrajudicial for the sake of the old minister's lifelong service to the court." ”

Serving the Imperial Court?

Qi Yuan couldn't help laughing.

At that time, Dong Yu was stationed in Shuzhou, and the generals were stationed ten kilometers outside the city of Shuzhou, and the rebels were approaching the city, Dong Yu was reluctant to send troops, saying that it was to prevent foreign enemies from attacking and preparing for the unexpected.

Those rebels have been guarding Yan Qiong for only one day, and they have already entered the city, if they don't come early from Xue Tan, they will be cleared repeatedly, I am afraid that this Shuzhou will already be surnamed Dong.

At the beginning, Xue Tan asked Yan Qiong, why didn't he resist foreign enemies and not let thieves come to attack? Yan Qiong said that it was for the safety of the people, but after the rebels entered Shuzhou, they burned, killed, looted, and robbed the people's daughters, Yan Qiong saw it in her eyes and turned a blind eye.

This kind of thing should be punished in the first place!

It's just that the emperor was seriously ill and unwell at that time, and Qi Yuan was grounded by the emperor, and no one remembered this old account for a while.

But not turning over old accounts does not mean that Qi Yuan has forgotten, this matter has always been deeply engraved in Qi Yuan's mind.

"When Dong Yu attacked, where did you hide?" Qi Yuan swept Yan Qiong's severed hand up and down, and spat it disdainfully, "Fleeing without a fight, the crime should be punished, what else do you have to say?" ”

Yan Qiong rolled on the ground, she was dizzy at this time, she couldn't find the north, and when she heard Qi Yuan say this, she was even more aware, and she retreated again and again for a while.

"The prince spares his life, the prince, the criminal knows that he is wrong." Yan Chongyu burst into tears, snot and tears, and complained, "Dong Yu forced me at the beginning, and my subordinates were unwilling to let them resist to the death like Yangzhou for the safety of the people of Shuzhou, and finally so many people died." ”

"Prince, look at my Shuzhou, it's just that I lost some grain and grass, and the people who died are not half of Yangzhou at all."

"You still have the face to say?" Qi Yuan's face was angry, and he slapped the table suddenly,

"If you hadn't given up Shuzhou, Dong Yu's soldiers and horses would have been directed at Yangzhou?"

"This ...... I can't be blamed for that. Yan Chongyu also looked helpless.

"Okay, okay, I'm going to call General Xue back, I want to see how the general on the battlefield condemns you!" With that, Qi Yuan stood up and was about to leave.

He has disappeared for a few days, Yin Qingqi lives in Yanfeng Tower, and he doesn't know what the situation is, Qi Yuan is also worried, there are many dreams at night, what went wrong.

"Prince, don't leave ......"

Outside the door, Yan Chongyu's voice sounded, followed by Hu San, and a group of people that Qi Yuan had seen that night.

"You are ......" Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the few people in front of him, "You are the ones who were there that night." ”

"Exactly." The man in charge smiled, it was he who gave Qi Yuan a knife that night, and Qi Yuan's wound was still aching faintly.

"Brother, I found the person you wanted." Yan Chongyu went against the norm, approached the house with great fanfare, and found a place to sit down. "See for yourself, this is the person you want."

"Presumptuous! Don't kneel yet! Yan Qiong was anxious when she saw Yan Chongyu's attitude, didn't she do her own thing in vain?

"Kneel what kneel." A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yan Chongyu's eyes, "I might as well tell you that this group of people is the sixth elder brother's people." ”

"Sixth elder brother?" Yan Qiong was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qi Yuan. "Is that the sixth elder brother who competed with the crown prince for power? What are you doing here? ”

Suddenly, Yan Qiong seemed to understand something.

"Yan Chongyu! You can't mess around! ”

"Messing around?" Yan Chongyu stroked his beard and stared at everyone with a smile, "Brother, I think it's you messing around." ”

"Now Xue Tan and the others don't know that the prince is with you, besides, as soon as the prince dies, there is no owner of the six gods in the court, who is the one who benefits?"

"Sixth Elder Brother." Yan Qiong responded silently.

"Then why is it wrong for me to win over the sixth elder brother now, which can not only protect myself, but also ensure the glory and wealth in the future?" Yan Chongyu said as he walked in front of Qi Yuan. I said, you can't run away. ”

"You're so daring." Qi Yuan's face sank, there are so many people, and now that he is sick, I am afraid that it is impossible to forcibly run away. "You

How dare you kill a king? ”

"Hey, you're not a gentleman now." Yan Chongyu pointed and smiled presumptuously, "Let me tell you, the sixth elder brother said, as long as I can kill you, I will be an official, brother, in the future, we will be on an equal footing, I will be in charge of Yangzhou, and you will be in charge of Shuzhou." ”

"Presumptuous!" Yan Qiong was speechless for a long time, "You are harming the Yan family by doing this." ”

Although the current situation in front of him was not optimistic, Yan Qiong knew that if he really killed Qi Yuan, he was afraid that their Yan family would come to an end.

"Come on, come on, take this bastard thing down for me!" Yan Qiong shouted outside, but there was no response, and Yan Qiong also panicked at this time.

"Old thing!" Hu San stepped forward and kicked Yan Qiong's lower abdomen, and he couldn't straighten up in pain. "How dare you betray us?"

"You ......" As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Qiong squatted down again holding her stomach.

"Brother, it's not that I don't want to keep you." Yan Chongyu shook his head, his eyes were full of gloom, "It's that you yourself are too timid, how can this kind of courage become a big thing?" I think you're still dead! ”

Yan Chongyu stretched out his hand, and a dagger was placed in his hand.

"Don't!" Qi Yuan's eyes widened, seeing Yan Qiong die in front of him, he struggled twice.

"Sir." Yan Qiong's advisor stepped forward and said with a smile, "I have settled down those guards and let them go out to eat flowers and wine." ”

"You're pretty good at judging the situation." As he spoke, Yan Chongyu patted the strategist on the shoulder. Qi Yuan saw it in his eyes and sighed at a nest of snakes and rats.

"Now it's your turn, Prince."

Yan Chongyu approached while wiping the blood stains on the knife with a handkerchief, "Say, how do you want to die?" When you die, I will naturally have someone send your body to the Jinghong Pavilion, and at that time, you will be considered 'the object will be returned to its original owner'." ”

As he spoke, several people looked at each other and smiled, Hu San laughed the most exaggeratedly, walked up to Qi Yuan, and kicked him violently in the wound.

Cold sweat broke out on Qi Yuan's forehead, and he leaned down, enduring the pain, and did not snort.

"Prince, that's it." Yan Chongyu sat in the middle and looked at Qi Yuan, who was in unbearable pain below, "Kneel down for Lao Tzu!" ”

Qi Yuan frowned, and looked at Yan Chongyu coldly, "Hmph! I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it! ”
