Yu Wenwen is interrogating prisoners of war to find out about the enemy outside the city, he is trapped in the city, it is very difficult to know the situation in the outside world, and the way for the dead to send a message at the cost of their lives can only be once or twice occasionally, so the defenders in the city have to obtain news through other means.

Either send a detailed city to spy on the military situation, or rely on interrogating the prisoners, and the hanging gourd is surrounded by the enemy like an iron barrel, it is not easy to go out once, and it is even more difficult to blend into the enemy camp.

And after each repulsion of the enemy's attack, some prisoners will be captured more or less, and interrogating the prisoners is the most reliable means of obtaining information.

And the prisoners interrogated by Yuwenwen were the survivors captured by his own side after the enemy's failure to attack the city yesterday, just so that he could pass the time of boredom, because most of the captives were from Hebei, and their mouths were full of accents from all over Hebei, so they needed to rely on "general affairs" to be the center of the translation.

Leading the army for many years, Yu Wenwen has a lot of experience in interrogating prisoners of war, and has his own set of methods, he is not like other generals, who put out torture tools to intimidate prisoners as soon as they come up, on the contrary, they use the method of overcoming rigidity with softness.

did not pose any murderous knife and axeman, but in the garden of birds and flowers, "cordially received" the captives.

Dressed in civilian clothes, holding books in hand, in addition to acting as a translator's "general matter", only two people accompany them, these two people are not big men, but young servants in Tsing Yi, Yu Wenwen deliberately created a relaxed artistic conception, just a lupine scarf, fuqin playing and singing.

After the captives in shackles stood still, Yu Wenwen first asked the other party where his hometown was, whether the high hall in his home was still alive, whether he had married a wife and had children, whether he was a soldier or a common man who had been conscripted for military service.

If you are an ordinary person, then what is the livelihood of the people, whether there is a land at home, or whether you work as a tenant farmer or work long and short, and what is the burden of rent adjustment in your hometown.

If it is a soldier or a soldier who joins the army to eat, then the situation in the army should also be asked again, and after asking and asking, after the other party's mood is eased, Yu Wenwen will continue to ask some boring questions, mixed with the questions that have been asked.

If the other party's second answer doesn't match the first answer, hehe...

Interrogating prisoners is a technical job, and they will be tortured as soon as they come up, Yu Wenwen feels that the technical content is too low, although it takes a lot of time to use words to trick others, but he has time, and it is easy to think about women if he doesn't kill time.

From the successful sneak attack of the troops to the present, Yuwenwen has never touched a woman, to be exact, since he left Jiangzhou at the end of last year, he has never touched a woman, because of his high vision, ordinary women can't get into his eyes.

During this period, he returned to Xiyang several times, and Yu Wenwen did not "talk in detail" with the side room, not because he had physical and psychological problems, but because the enemy army was pressing, the situation was precarious, and he had no time or mood to think about this kind of thing.

In addition, the princess Wei Chi Chifan was detained by her mother's family again, maybe when she was forced to remarry, Yu Wenwen was in an extremely bad mood when she thought of this, and she was not in the mood to engage in women.

But as a young man with vigorous blood and blood, his physical needs are "just needs", and he can only divert his attention by constantly doing things, and after interrogating these prisoners of war today and patrolling the city again, he can be so tired that he will fall asleep on the couch immediately.

Unconsciously, only the last person left in the captive, although Yu Wenwen was a little tired, he cheered up and squeezed out a "kind" smile to pull up with the other party, and after a while, he understood the general situation of the other party.

This person's surname is Wu Mingzheng, a resident of Yecheng, no land and no land, he lives by helping people to help books on weekdays, there is still an old mother in the family, he has not yet started a family, he has no brothers, only a sister, and he has been married.

In the summer and autumn of this year, the imperial court conscripted the people to join the army to crusade against the rebels and thieves, and gave priority to the requisition of civilians like them who had no land and did not need to participate in the autumn harvest, so Wu Zheng went south with the army and came to the outside of the city.

Wu Zheng could read and write, and his treatment soon became different from that of the illiterate people, and he did not need to be a coolie, but was called to help the soldiers write letters to their families, of course, for free.

Although he didn't have any money, it was good for Wu Zheng, because he didn't need to be a coolie, and he didn't need to risk his life to follow the official army to attack the city.

Knowing that the other party makes a living from the book on weekdays, Yu Wenwen became interested, he went to Yecheng back then, but after a good investigation of Yecheng's book industry, he was very clear about the situation in the industry.

In the era when engraving and printing had not yet appeared, the spread of books depended on hand-copied books, one became ten, and ten books became hundreds.

As the driving force behind the printing industry in Huangzhou, Yu Wenwen knows very well about the "backward industry" of the book industry, Yecheng is a market being developed by Huangzhou booksellers, and he knows the situation of the book industry in Yecheng.

After asking a few more irrelevant questions, Yuwenwen pretended to be casual and asked about the income of the other party's helper, Wu Zheng answered without hesitation, and the content of the answer was similar to what Yuwenwen knew.

In this way, Wu Zheng is a servant for a living, but the question is: why don't you write letters for people in the barracks, what are you doing when you come to siege the city? Could it be that you have offended someone?

Yu Wenwen thought so, but did not ask, but continued to ask some seemingly inconsequential questions, and by interrogating the first few captives, he noticed some clues: Wei Chi Xuan seemed to be about to slip away.

This is a vague inference he has drawn from the confessions of many captives in recent days, but it is not certain that more captives are needed to confirm this inference.

So Yuwenwen asked Wu Zheng if the soldiers had said anything in their letters to their families recently, such as the "good news" such as suddenly saying that they would be able to go home soon, and the other party's answer made his heart move.

Wu Zheng said that when some soldiers dictated the contents of their family letters, they said that they would soon be able to return north with the army and that they wanted to come home and that they would be just around the corner.

Of course, only sporadic soldiers had such news revealed, and Wu Zheng paid attention to it, most of these soldiers belonged to the various divisions under the command of the prime minister.

When Yu Wenwen heard this, his mind was lively, generally speaking, the soldiers and horses under the commander's personal command will only follow the commander's actions, if what Wu Zheng said is true, then this situation means that Wei Chidun is afraid to return north.

Then Yu Wenwen's prince and princess will inevitably be taken back to the north by Wei Chidun.

What happened to make Wei Chidun give up commanding the siege of the city, and lead the elite to the north before the "Imperial Expedition" was completed?

Hehe, trying to lie to me?

Yu Wenwen felt that this Wu Zheng must have been sent by Wei Chidun to mislead him, deliberately released the wrong news, so that he believed it, and hurriedly sent troops out of the city to carry out a sneak attack, and then he was defeated.

In order to enhance the persuasiveness, he deliberately sent a civilian who made a living as a servant to be a fine work, in order to enhance credibility, after all, most people were illiterate in these years, and under normal circumstances, only the servant had the opportunity to write letters for ordinary soldiers after joining the army, and then learned all kinds of inside information.

"Wu Zheng, why did you suddenly come to attack the city, could it be that you offended someone, and the other party wanted to kill you?"

"Shangguan clearly saw that the little one had indeed offended people, and he didn't dare to run to his hometown, so he could only mix in the army of the attack city and flee to the city for a chance to live."

Wu Zheng said that Yuwen Wen had a confession that could be corroborated, before he interrogated the prisoners, he had to listen to the generals report the process of these prisoners being captured, and the others were captured during the trapped beast fight, and this one directly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

If this person surrendered on his own initiative, it is reasonable.

Yu Wenwen pondered that this was the secret of Shangguan, and he was afraid of being killed and killed, so he could only flee, but fleeing home was like death, so he could only flee to the city in desperation.

Thinking of this, he asked quietly, "How did you offend people?" ”

"Uh..."

"Say, it's not in the barracks outside the city now."

Wu Zheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, hesitated for a moment, and talked about the original story: A few days ago, he helped the soldiers write letters to their families as always, because there were many people who wanted to write letters to their families, and he was busy all morning, and finally had the opportunity to go to the toilet.

When he was squatting in the pit, there were soldiers whispering next door, and it happened to be speaking the dialect of Yecheng, so Wu Zheng heard it very clearly, and after he heard it clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked.

The two soldiers belonged to the Sixth Rate of the Forbidden Army, and he had written many letters to the family for the two of them, but he did not know the specific affiliation of the other party, and one soldier revealed to the other an interesting story, which was actually a scandal:

The female dependents in the royal car, someone is pregnant.

The Son of Heaven is young, it is impossible for a woman to get pregnant, and the Son of Heaven has no concubines, so there are naturally other people who are pregnant, and the female relatives who accompany the Son of Heaven should not have this happen.

Wu Zheng Yecheng is "seen in the world", he knows that once this kind of thing leaks out, the insider will be unlucky, so he hid in the toilet until the two soldiers left before he dared to come out, specially avoided the people who came in and out, and quietly went back to continue to write letters for others.

thought that it would be peaceful, but it didn't take long for Wu Zheng to find that the two soldiers had died inexplicably, and the soldiers who had been close to these two soldiers also suddenly fell ill and died.

Among these unlucky ghosts were those who had been to the latrine before and after the two men had entered and exited the latrine when he went to the toilet that day.

Wu Zheng quickly figured out the key, knowing that he was going to finish, his first thought was to escape, but it was impossible for him to escape back to Yecheng alone, even if he fled back, he would be killed, so...

"So you took advantage of the morning when the army gathered the young and strong to attack the city together, and mixed into the crowd and waited for an opportunity to approach the hanging gourd?"

"Yes... Shangguan! Everything the villain said is true! ”

Yuwenwen groaned, the heart of gossip was burning, and based on many sources, Yuwenwen knew that the female dependents who accompanied his son (Yujia) should only be his mother-in-law Wang, the princess Wei Chi Chifan, and his sister-in-law Yu Chi Mingyue, so...

Evil! The widowed sister-in-law was actually made to have a big belly!

Thinking of the hard-working sister-in-law, Yu Wenwen was a little embarrassed, judging from the marriageable age of this era, Yu Chi Mingyue was an older leftover girl, and she finally succeeded in getting married, but she was widowed on the day of marriage.

With Wei Chi Mingyue's background, no one should dare to use force, so now that this kind of thing happens, I think it is my sister-in-law who met her lover, and you and I are willing to taste the forbidden fruit, which leads to the secret knot of the pearl fetus?

Knowing the secret of his sister-in-law's fornication, Yu Wenwen was a little embarrassed, and coughed dryly to withdraw his thoughts: "This official knows, you, be stricter, this rumor must not be spread again!" ”

"The villain knows, the villain understands, the villain will never put the queen of Di... Rumors spread. ”

"Well, you know what's going on.... Belch? ”

Yuwen Wen almost choked on his own saliva, he subconsciously thought that it was his sister-in-law who had an affair with someone so he was made to have a big belly, but it turned out to be Queen Di? Isn't that his princess Wei Chi Chi Fan?

Yuwenwen was named the king of Yi by the Yecheng court, and the princess Wei Chi Chifan was named the queen of Yi, but he never recognized this "pseudo-seal", so when he heard the word "Queen Di", he would not immediately think of Yu Chi Chifan, and he had to delay a few breaths before reacting.

It turned out that my princess was pregnant? I'm going to be a dad?

Why am I going to be a father? Which bastard dares to touch my woman! I'm going to cut him with a thousand cuts!!

Yu Wenwen's eyelids jumped, his ears couldn't help but take the initiative, and his heart set off a storm, his mind was full of thoughts about the appearance of Yu Chi Chi Fan's stomach, he hadn't seen Yu Chi Chi Fan for nearly a year, so....

Wei Chi Chi Fan won't lose me, someone must be overlord with a bow, or use medicine, bastard!

All kinds of pictures flashed in his mind, after he was drugged by others, he regarded other men as him, catering to all kinds of charms, and letting other men do whatever they wanted.

Then when the effect of the medicine was over, he pulled the futon to cover his body, shrunk in the corner and cried.

Yuwen Wen thought about it and only felt that his heart was dripping blood, and the whole person froze there, motionless and not speaking.

Wang Jun, who was acting as a "generalist" on the side, regretted standing here a little, he probably understood the prescriptions of Hebei, so he volunteered to be a generalist, and gave advice to Yuwenwen by the way, but he actually heard this kind of scandal.

He listened to this kind of scandal, and he didn't know that he would be at risk of being killed in the future.

In the midst of lightning, Wang Jun glanced at Yu Wenwen, and then at that Wu Zheng, suddenly his head flashed, and he was about to speak, but he heard Yu Wenwen ask: "Wu Zheng." ”

"The little ones are here."

"You, the news you said is very important, not bad, very good, very good...."Yu Wenwen took a deep breath and continued: "In the future, the official position will be at least a state assassin!" ”

Wu Zheng, who was still sweating profusely, was overjoyed when he heard the last sentence, the corners of his mouth moved, and he didn't know what to say. Kindness! ”

Wu Zheng knelt down with a thud and bowed to the person in front of him: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, king!" ”

"The King?" Yu Wenwen heard the other party's name, took a long breath, and then looked at the other party with a smile: "How do you know that the widow is the 'King of Di' or the 'King of Xiyang'?" ”

Yu Wenwen personally interrogated the captive, kept his identity strictly secret, so as not to be taken by others, let him "come with his ear" and bite off his ear, so the captives did not know that he was the king of Xiyang, and his self-proclaimed self-proclaimed was always "this official" rather than a "widow".

So the question is, how did Wu know his true identity so that he blurted out "Thank you King" under great joy?

Facing Yu Wenwen's questioning, Wu Zheng sweated like a pulp, and replied calmly: "Small.. In the past, I saw the king in Yecheng..."

"So, you know about the princess's scandal, and you specifically said that you want the widow to know, is it because you lack the heart, or do you think that the widow will not kill people?"

After Yuwenwen finished speaking, he made a look, and the two young maids in Tsing Yi rushed up, restrained Wu Zheng and stuffed something into the other party's mouth to prevent the other party from chewing his tongue and committing suicide, Yuwenwen got up and came to the other party, and asked in a dark way:

"Do you know how the widow skins people alive?"

A smell of urine came, it was Wu Zheng who was scared out of control, and in the face of the threat of "skinning people alive", he didn't have any courage to resist, and told the truth with tears in his eyes.

Because there was something stuck in his mouth, his upper and lower jaws couldn't be closed, his saliva was flowing sideways, and his speech was a little unfavorable, but what Wu Zheng said was still heard by Wang Fei, and then relayed it to Yu Wenwen.

Wu Zheng is indeed a resident of Yecheng, who makes a living as a servant, was conscripted and sent with the army, and came to the outside of the Hanging Fortress City, and he did help the soldiers write letters on weekdays.

Yesterday, suddenly a soldier took him away, took him to Beiying, and met the high-ranking prime minister, who ordered him to serve the imperial court and bring a message to the Hanging Fortress City, this task is very important, but also very dangerous, basically there is no return.

But regardless of whether the mission is successful or not, the prime minister promises that Wu Zheng's family in Yecheng will be rewarded.

And this task allowed Wu Zheng to be captured by the Hanging Fortress Defenders, and then when the other party interrogated him, he told two news, one was that the main force of the official army seemed to be about to return to the north, and the other was the so-called scandal of Queen Di.

This scandal can only be said when you see one person, that is the King of Xiyang (King Yi) Yuwenwen, Wu Zheng has never seen Yuwenwen, but only after seeing the portrait painted by the prime minister that he knows what Yuwenwen looks like.

If he is captured, it is not Yu Wenwen himself who is interrogated, and the so-called scandal of Queen Yi must not be said, because he is afraid that the news will be covered up by the other party's murder and mouth, and it will not reach the ears of King Xiyang.

Therefore, in order to have a chance to meet the King of Xiyang, Wu Zheng must first reveal the news that the main force of the official army may go north, so that he can have a chance to be summoned by the King of Xiyang, and then shake out the scandal.

If this kind of thing is told to Yuwen Wen, who is the "bitter master", he will inevitably be killed, so Wu Zheng is more auspicious than lucky, and the prime minister personally promised that he would give his family a generous pension, which made Wu Zheng moved.

Unexpectedly, after being captured, he actually saw Yuwenwen directly, and it didn't work, so Wu Zheng stubbornly told the so-called scandal, thinking that he would definitely die, but he learned that his "official position is at least a state assassin history", and under the great joy, he was tricked by Yuwenwen without paying attention.

As for the scandal of Queen Yi (Princess Xiyang), of course, it is nothing.

Wu Zheng, who smelled of urine, was carried away, Yuwen Wen breathed a sigh of relief, took a big sip of tea, and saw that Wang Hao understood his intentions without looking at him, and couldn't help but be relieved: "Wang joined the army, so he was so anxious." ”

"The subordinates are not talented, and the king is really anxious."

Wang Zheng's answer was not a compliment, it was sincere, after he heard Wu Zheng say the scandal, he quickly figured out the key: Wu Zheng is either stupid, otherwise he should know that if he says this kind of scandal, he will be killed.

The king of Xiyang guarded the hanging gourd, Wu Zheng should not know that he was captured, even if he revealed this kind of news to the generals instead of Yuwenwen himself, he would definitely be killed, so the other party did this, it was very likely to be a "dead room".

And what Yu Wenwen said afterwards let Wang Fei know that it was a temptation, so he urged Wu Zheng to thank him, and sure enough, the other party recognized Yu Wenwen and blurted out "Thank you, King".

Since he knew that the person in front of him was Yuwenwen, the king of Xiyang, he actually dared to tell the so-called scandal of Princess Xiyang (Queen Di), everything has become clear at this point: this is the "dead room" sent by the enemy, and Yuwenwen wants to be in a hurry, hastily send troops to carry out a sneak attack, and then be waited for.

This kind of trick of deceit, the bystander can analyze the truth very calmly, but Yu Wenwen, as the "bitter master", was able to learn about the princess scandal, and immediately used words to trick the other party's tone, Wang Gong really admired this.

Yu Wenwen, who had just experienced great sorrow and joy, quickly focused on the meaning behind Wu Zheng's behavior, perhaps, this was just one of the tricks that the enemy came up with in order to break the city, but Prime Minister Chi Dian personally met with Wu Zheng and made a promise, which was a little unusual.

"The widow thinks that the situation in Guanzhong is decided, and the Yongzhou army repels the enemy army, so Wei Chidun is in a hurry to solve the hanging gourd in order to draw out his troops?"

"The king, his subordinates think that this matter is very likely to happen, but Wu Zheng's 'lonely evidence' alone cannot prove that the king's judgment is true."

"Yes..."Yu Wenwen sighed and looked at the northwest sky, "The two brothers, Wei Chiqin and Wei Chijing, as long as they don't make a faint move, they will definitely be able to suppress the Yongzhou army..."

He looked at the southeast sky again, as if to talk to himself, or to consult with Wang Hao: "So... Could it be that Wei Chiyou in the southeast direction has a problem? ”

"The king's opinion, is Chen Jun a breakthrough?"

Wang Wenwen revealed inside information, knowing that he was making peace with Chen Guo, calculating the time, if the two sides really formed an alliance, Jiangnan Chen Jun should also make a move, but Yu Wenwen had a negative attitude towards this inference

"It's better to ask for others than for yourself, the Chen army is unreliable, and the outnumbered Hulin Army has been ready to go...."
