Chapter 254: People's hearts
/p> He Fu was originally a marquis, an official to the governor. After the "Battle of Jingjing", he expressed his loyalty through surrender and marriage; Coupled with the fact that the territory that King Yan had to worry about after ascending the throne became larger and the generals were urgently needed, He Fu had re-entered the list of the most senior generals of the Ming Emperor.
But now that He Fu's younger brother is in Zhu Gaoxu's hands, many people know that Zhu Gaochu has caught a cronie next to Jianwen, and as long as this matter is shaken out, it will be He Fu's life-saving talisman...... Does he dare to be disobedient?
Zhu Gaoxu was like a treasure, and he was immersed in joy for a long time.
It is not easy for a military minister who was an official in the court to become a vassal king! Even the crown prince did not dare to win over the courtiers easily.
While excited, Zhu Gaoxu found that he was faintly uneasy in his heart.
After pacing around the small courtyard for a while, he caught the source of the uneasiness...... No matter how carefully this kind of thing is done, the person he deceived is his father Zhu Di after all; Zhu Di is not only a strong lord who is difficult to be deceived, but also has the ability to sanction Zhu Gaoxu! If Zhu Gaoxu had deceived someone else, he would not have such a faint fear.
But he's ready to do it. At this time, he did not dare to rebel, thinking that he was sent to death; But if you don't dare to take the risk and accumulate strength, you can only sit back and wait.
Zhu Gaoxu pondered, He Fu was more reliable than Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu and others. The old generals of the Yan Wangfu were most inclined to and supported Zhu Gaoxu, but it was impossible for them to rebel with them...... The people of this world either let him feel the fundamental threat, or let him see the real great benefits, or let the glorious and rich nobles take risks with their heads, why?
"O human heart!" Zhu Gaoxu suddenly sighed softly.
At this time, Chen Dazhui came over from the sandwich road, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Wang, I have escorted Duan Yang's family back to the palace, and he is still locked in the corridor room of the last round." ”
Zhu Gaoxu nodded, and said in his heart: The two mothers and daughters who have always wanted revenge have finally fallen into their own hands. You can do whatever you want.
He sighed just now, and then suddenly remembered some of the things, which didn't seem to make sense.
According to Duan Yang's idea: The main way to take revenge is to use Jianwen's matter to completely destroy Mu Sheng's family; And the assassination of Mu Sheng is not her main method, otherwise the deployment of the assassination will not seem so hasty.
At that time, it was found out that Mu Sheng had hidden Jianwen, and he was almost successful. As a mother, why do you have to let your daughter die in vain? If Duan Yang was a merciless person, he would not be able to avenge his husband for more than ten years.
He thought about it and always felt that this matter was a bit strange.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't say anything just now, and Chen Dazhui hugged his fists and said, "The last general will retire." ”
"Sledgehammer, come with me." Zhu Gaoxu stopped him.
Chen Dazhui said again: "Yes." ”
The two of them walked along the corridor under the eaves to the empty cloister next to them. Zhu Gaoxu went in and out of several rooms next to him, and after a while, he picked a room.
The room seemed to be a place for napping and resting, with a bed and a few pieces of furniture. There was also an ear room next to it, and the door of the ear room was very low, and at first glance only the slave and maid would go inside.
"Push it over." Zhu pointed to the wooden shelves on the wall, on which some porcelain decorations were placed.
Chen Dazhui pushed the wooden frame to the door of the ear room as ordered. When Zhu Gaoxu looked at it, he couldn't tell that there was a door there, and the wooden frame was just a piece of furniture against the wall. He was immediately satisfied.
Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and said, "You go and tell me to tell Wang Gui to send the female assassin over first." After waiting for a stick of incense, I will invite Duan Yang again.
Chen Dazhui didn't ask much, hugged his fists and said: "The last general will be ordered!" ”
Zhu Gaoxu went to sit down on a chair next to a few cases; He thought for a moment, got up and pushed the wooden frame away, took a jade paperweight from it, and sat back in his chair to play with it. He took a look, and the paperweight seemed to be made of limestone, not a rare thing of value. But that's not the point, he just needs to make a very calm appearance.
After a while, Wang Gui came over with Duan Xue Hat.
Duan Xue hated to enter the door and asked, "How long will Your Highness lock me up?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu said: "I don't have bad intentions, Miss Duan understands." I'll let you go today. ”
"Really?" Duan Xue was very surprised.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "I, when I don't need to lie, I usually only tell the truth. And I'm a prince, why make fun of you? ”
Duan Xue thought about it, hugged her fists and said, "Thank you for your kindness." ”
Zhu Gaoxu said again: "I'll let your mother go with you in a while." She came back from Dali Mansion, we have found Emperor Jianwen, Mu Sheng is estimated to be frightened at the moment, and is trembling in the mansion. ”
Duan Xue hated to hear it, but just breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Gaoxu said: "But before I let you go, you go to the ear room next to you and stay quiet." As long as I wait quietly for the two incense sticks to be heard, and don't say anything no matter what happens, I'll honor what I just said, how about it? ”
Duan Xue hated the door next to the wooden shelf, nodded and said, "It will be according to His Highness's wishes." ”
"Good." Zhu Gaoxu said.
Duan Xue hate bent down and walked into the ear room, and Zhu Gaoxu then pushed the wooden shelf over, blocking the door of the ear room.
Zhu Gaoxu sat on a chair, playing with the limestone inkstone in his hand, which was suspected to be an antique. After waiting for a while, Chen Dazhui brought Duan Yang to the door of the room. Duan Yang himself walked over well, and he was not tied up like He Lu.
"The concubine has seen the prince." Duan Yang said. She looked like she was in a good mood, and she seemed to know that the person who died in Cangshan in Dali was Emperor Jianwen!
Just as Zhu Gaoxu and the others all know, Hu Hu must also know...... There are many people from Mu Sheng in Dali; Duan Baoji, who sheltered Emperor Jianwen, had a marriage with Mu Sheng's henchmen. With so many clues, how did Mu Fu get out of it?
Zhu Gaoxu pretended to be absent-minded and said, "Mrs. Duan is exempt. He continued to play with the limestone in his hand, and it seemed to be very interesting.
Duan Yang still asked: "Lord Wang, the corpse placed in the ice cellar of Dali City is indeed Jianwenjun's father and son?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu nodded, put down the inkstone in his hand, took out a cloth bag from his arms, which was the fragment of paper given by Chen Dazhu, and said: "This is something taken back from Lanfeng Temple, and it has the handwriting of Emperor Jianwen on it." ”
"The concubine knows, General Chen was picking up the burned paper at that time, and the concubine was also there." Duan Yang walked over, stretched out her hand, and when she saw Zhu Gaoxu nodding, she picked up the scrap paper and looked at it carefully.
Zhu Gaoxu said again: "Chen Dazhui also caught Emperor Jianwen's cronies, and also confirmed the matter. ”
Duan Yang smiled excitedly in front of Zhu Gaoxu.
Zhu Gaoxu said in a deep voice: "My father and Emperor have worked hard to find Emperor Jianwen. Mu Sheng was so bold that he harbored Emperor Jianwen without authorization and concealed it without reporting. I'm afraid that the Mu family is not far from being slashed! ”
Duan Yang's face turned red, and he said in a trembling voice: "The whole family is going to die? ”
Zhu Gaoxu sneered: "My father doesn't trust Mu Mansion very much, otherwise why did the Yunnan Third Division change so many officials this year?" Now that this kind of thing has happened, what does Mrs. Duan think will happen? ”
"Hahaha......" Duan Yang actually raised his head and laughed a few times.
Although she was an assassin, she gave Zhu Gaoxu the impression of a middle-aged woman who was a little knowledgeable, and suddenly smiled so openly and her face was distorted, which was still unusual at first glance.
Zhu Gaoxu said quietly: "Now, Mu Sheng is dead, and his family members are inevitably implicated. Mrs. Duan's family's revenge for more than ten years has finally been avenged. ”
"Mu Sheng is dead?" Duan Yang's whispering stopped abruptly.
Zhu Gaoxu said seriously: "Mrs. Duan still doesn't know? Oh, look at my negligence, it's not public yet...... Mu Sheng was stabbed by the assassin, and after returning home, his injuries worsened and he died. ”
"Hahaha......" Duan Yang raised his head and laughed again, laughing so much that tears flowed out, because his body swayed too violently, even his sideburns were scattered on his face! Coupled with her distorted and deformed face, it looked a little scary for a while.
She reached out and stroked the messy hair on her face, gasped for a moment, and asked, "Does the prince know who the assassin is?" ”
"It is said that she is a female assassin, and she dares to love Mrs. Duan's daughter, Duan Xue Hate?" Zhu Gaoxu's face did not change color.
Duan Yang nodded slightly: "Apart from her, who else risked death to stab Mu Sheng?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu let out an "oh" and said suddenly: "Now that the descendants of the Duan family have stabbed the enemy with their own hands, and the whole family of Mufu has been implicated, no matter how big the revenge is, will it be avenged?" ”
Duan Yang sneered and shook his head and looked at Zhu Gaoxu, smiling very strangely. Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu looked at her very expectantly, feeling that there was really something hidden.
Seeing that Duan Yang still didn't speak, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but induce: "Why did Mrs. Duan shake her head, this king said something wrong?" ”
"The people of the Duan family are enemies with their hands, how can the Mu family kill each other and make the following crimes happy?" Duan Yang sneered, "What Mu Ying did back then, he couldn't repay his debts even if he died, not to mention that he actually died by himself." The blood debt can only be repaid by the descendants of the Mu family......"
Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly asked: "Descendants of the Mu family?" ”
Duan Yang said: "I have to let everyone in the world know about this matter, Mu Sheng died at the hands of the descendants of the Mu family!" Duan Xue hated it was not my daughter at all, she was the daughter of Mu Ying's eldest son, Mu Chun! I managed to steal her out back then, and I wanted Mu Chun's daughter to kill her biological father. Unexpectedly, Mu Chun also died, and now it is her niece who kills her uncle, which can be regarded as letting Mu Ying have to taste her wish in hell. ”
Zhu Gaoxu was a little surprised, but after all, this matter had little to do with him, so he said with surprise: "No wonder when Jianwen's matter was about to happen, Mrs. Duan still forced Duan Xue to assassinate Mu Sheng, are you afraid that after Mu Fu is convicted, there will be no chance to ask Duan Xue to make a move?" ”
Duan Yang nodded and smiled: "Back then, I didn't know that there was anything else to use Jianwen for, so I thought, just assassinated the descendants of the Mu family, how to relieve hatred?" The way I thought was to make the descendants of Mu Mansion kill each other, so I did so many things. Now it's useless for me to take Duan Xue's hatred, no matter who dies in whose hands she or Mu Sheng is, it's a happy thing! ”
