Text Chapter 332 Tribulation
Chen Kun stood a little later, only to see King Yong's cheeks twitching slightly, his hands clenched into fists, his joints were white, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were beating slightly.
It's just that what comforting words he can say and what he can do, he can only follow King Yong cautiously with a heavy and apprehensive heart, and walk into the dim hall.
A very inconspicuous cypress coffin stopped in the hall, except for Lei Jiuyuan and the two elders guarding the left and right, there was no trace of anyone else, it seemed as if the secret in this cypress coffin flew with wings, turning the girder upside down and bleeding all over the ground.
The furnishings in the room are also extremely simple, there are no tables, chairs, books, and no incense and candles, and it looks so cold and cold.
It's so cold!
Concubine Rong, who has the appearance of the country's natural fragrance and is so favored by King Yong, that she is going to write a letter to express her heartfelt feelings on the tenth day, lies coldly in this lifeless cypress coffin?
Chen Kun couldn't imagine all this, and it was also difficult to imagine the pain that King Yong endured in his heart.
The black-clothed old eunuch motioned for the two elders to withdraw first, and said in a hoarse voice:
"On the twelfth, it was rumored that His Majesty was occasionally infected with a cold, Concubine Rong entered the palace to say hello, and when the palace sent someone to say that the concubine wanted Concubine Rong to stay in the palace to accompany her, the next day Concubine Rong returned to the palace to retreat and sit on the left and right for a night, hanging on the beam in the early morning, and when the maid found out, Concubine Rong had died of anger. The old slave was worried that there was something else hidden in this matter, so he detained all the maids and maids around Concubine Rong, and failed to let the news leak at all, and then quietly transported Concubine Rong's body to this place in a coffin, and sent someone to send a secret letter to inform His Highness......"
Chen Kun stood in front of the threshold, and when he heard Lei Jiuyuan's words, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Such astonishing news made him, who was covered in blood on the battlefield and killed the enemy, but he was fearless, and at this moment he stood on the spot with a cold body: Concubine Rong was detained in the palace overnight, and hanged herself after returning home?
Oh, my God!
Why did Cangtian punish Daliang so much, why did he punish King Yong so much?
Yongwang Zhu Yu stood in front of the coffin, his forehead was exposed, hideous and abnormal, and he roared hoarsely for a long time: "Open the coffin." ”
This matter can't alarm others, Chen Kunqiang suppressed the shock in his heart, stepped forward and took matters into his own hands with Lei Jiuyuan, removing the heavy coffin lid.
At this time, Chen Kun had already adapted to the dim light in the room, perhaps because of the cold weather, seeing Concubine Rong lying in the coffin, her appearance was as if she was alive, but on her slender snow-white neck, the purple-black bruises strangled by the rope were so dazzling.
The bruises are very regular, which shows that Concubine Rong was so resolute when she hanged herself, and ended her life without the slightest struggle.
Seeing King Yong's face twitching, he leaned over and gently lifted Concubine Rong's body, to uncover his clothes, and check the traces of Concubine Rong's body being covered by clothes and humiliated in the palace, Chen Kun evasively retreated to the side and stood in front of the threshold.
After a while, Chen Kun saw King Yong waving his hand weakly, signaling Lei Jiuyuan to close the lid of the coffin, and then King Yong sat on the brick floor in front of the coffin as if his vertebrae had been pulled away.
Chen Kun stood in front of the door, and his heart also set off a wave, thinking that after Empress Zhang's death, he said that His Majesty's temperament had changed greatly, but he never thought that His Majesty would summon his daughter-in-law Concubine Rong into the palace and do something unethical!
Of course, compared with the human tragedy that has happened, what makes Chen Kun's scalp tense and his back chills is how to clean up such a tragic situation at the moment!
Chen Kun was also secretly glad that Lei Jiuyuan had presided over the affairs of the palace in the past two years, and if he was someone else, he was afraid that he would not be able to hide the news of Concubine Rong's self-hanging.
However, the news of Concubine Rong's death by hanging herself can't be hidden for long, even if it is announced to the public that Concubine Rong died of a sudden illness, but can it really make His Majesty believe that King Yong is completely unaware of the ugly things he has done?
Besides, they were very cautious and cautious all the way back to Bianjing, but King Yong had been away from Guanzhong for more than half a month, and even if he cautiously rushed back to Lishan again, it would take more than half a month to say the least-King Yong had not appeared in Lishan for more than a month, and had appeared publicly elsewhere in Guanzhong, and this matter had reached the ears of His Majesty, who was a thief, how could it not arouse suspicion?
Once Your Majesty is suspicious of King Yong, what will be the consequences?
Thinking of this, Chen Kun's vest was cold, knowing that once His Majesty was suspicious of King Yong, it would be light to cut off his military power and be confined to him; And King Yong has no hope of the throne, and the most promising King Bo, Zhu Jue, is suspicious, and the relationship with King Yong is bad, and it is impossible to allow King Yong to live under his nose after succeeding to the throne.
"Your Highness, if you keep interrupting, your life will not be saved!" Lei Jiuyuan stood in front of the coffin and said in a hoarse voice.
Hearing Lei Jiuyuan's words, Chen Kun was suddenly shocked, and looked up suspiciously: When it is broken, how should it be broken?
The military power of the Bianjing forbidden army is mainly controlled by King Bo Zhu Qi, uncle Zhao Yan, deputy privy envoy, and Feng Tingye, the commander of the Bianjing Ma Army.
And the elite of Xuanjiadu, who is loyal to King Yong, is far away in Guanzhong, thousands of miles away.
At this time, the secret guards of Chengtianwei fled into the Guanzhong to stand on their own?
Not to mention that many of the officials in Guanzhong are His Majesty's henchmen, not to mention that most of the dependents of the generals in Xuanjia are placed near Bianjing, can they really stand on their own feet by virtue of Guanzhong, which is dilapidated, has a population of only 1.3 or 400 million, and has war channels with Chu, Shu and Jin?
More importantly, in what name should Tongguan be self-reliant?
If the name is not right, it is not good.
Without a proper name, there are millions of soldiers and civilians in Guanzhong, how many people will follow King Yong to the dark regardless of the stunned youth?
Seeing King Yong's left hand holding the coffin, his nails piercing the coffin a little, Chen Kun was also entangled in the pain and struggle he was suffering at this time.
The room was cold, and before I knew it, the sky was dark, and the room was even darker, Lei Jiuyuan did not instruct others to hold the lamp, and the three of them sat or stood still in the dark, if it weren't for the faint sound of breathing, Chen Kun suspected that King Yong and Lei Jiuyuan had gone out.
"Palm Lamp!" After being silent for a long time, Zhu Yu, the king of Yong, said two words, and his voice was already extremely hoarse.
…………
…………
Lei Jiuyuan went out for a while, took a candlestick and walked out, emitting a halo of light, illuminating the huge hall in a gloomy and cold silence.
In the hall, except for the cypress coffin, there were no other ornaments, and there was no table, so Lei Jiuyuan stood there with a candlestick in his hand.
Zhu Yu took the candlestick, put it directly on the coffin, and said softly: "Rong'er won't blame me for neglecting her!" ”
At this time, seeing that King Yong's eyes were bloodshot and his eyes were red, Chen Kun was startled and persuaded: "Your Highness, do you want to take a break, your body is important?" ”
Zhu Yu ignored Chen Kun's advice, took out a pair of girder situation maps from his arms that he had collected and would take out from time to time to observe, spread them on the coffin, and looked at them carefully by the dim candlelight.
In addition to the mountainous terrain of the territory under the jurisdiction of Daliang, there are also garrisons in various towns and confrontations with neighboring Chu Shu and Jin states.
A high candle burned out before you knew it, and it was already late at night.
"Chen Kun, you take my tiger talisman gold seal back to Lishan, and tell the generals that I am in retreat to study, and I will go to Caizhou with Lei Gong. After you arrive at Lishan, if you hear the news that Han Jianxian Caizhou has surrendered to Chu, you will immediately send a letter to Bianjing with my golden seal fast horse, saying that the Shu army has assembled in Liangzhou and wants to enter Chencang Road to attack Lishan! Zhu Yu's vocal cords were so hoarse that he was almost silent, but he just tried his best to scream so that Chen Kun and Lei Jiuyuan could hear his words clearly.
"Turning the tiger away from the mountain?" Chen Kun has followed King Yong's side for many years, and when he heard King Yong say this, he quickly figured out what strategy King Yong was going to use to break the crisis in front of him, but he was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he further confirmed and asked.
Concubine Rong's death can be temporarily concealed for a period of time, at this time, Caizhou Jiedu made Han Jian and his nephew Han Yuanqi "mutiny" in Caizhou, wanting to sacrifice Caizhou to Chu, and Xuanjia can not get out of the pass because the Shu army wants to attack Lishan, then His Majesty can only transfer the elite of the forbidden army from Bianjing to the south to quell the rebellion.
Only when the elite of the forbidden army goes south, the defense of Bianjing is empty, and Xuandu Jia brazenly advances eastward along the Yellow River, it is possible to achieve great things in the shortest possible time!
Zhu Yu nodded, his tiger eyes were red, stared at Chen Kun and asked, "Chen Kun, can this king trust you?" ”
Chen Kun knelt on his knees, raised his head, faced the gaze of King Yong, and said earnestly: "King Bo wants to take my wife to serve his immorality, but it is not His Highness who stops him, Chen Kun is afraid that he has already been in a different place!" In addition to His Royal Highness's treatment of Chen Kun like a brother and sister over the years, Chen Kun did not dare to forget this kindness, and Chen Kun never dared to imagine the situation after King Bo inherited the unification. It's just that His Royal Highness only sneaked to Caizhou with Lei Gong, if Han Jian and Han Yuanqi don't obey, what should they do? ”
Chen Kun was worried that Han Jiannai was an old minister trusted by His Majesty, and it would not be easy to persuade him to cooperate; He looked at Lei Jiuyuan again, Lei Jiuyuan's old tears were cloudy, even in the face of such an earth-shattering change, he couldn't see the slightest ripple in his heart.
"If Han Jian insists on me and dedicates it to Bianjing, you can bring your family to Chu! Although the state of Chu is not peaceful, but Yang Yuanpu is assisted by Han Qian, and the world may be unified in the hands of Yang Yuanpu, right? Zhu Yu said with a little desolation.
Hearing King Yong mention Han Qian, Chen Kun suddenly thought of the situation when he sneaked into Chu with King Yong to meet Han Qian in Guishan after the Jingxiang War, and Han Qian said that King Yong would have a catastrophe within three years.
Chen Kun was shocked, thinking that Han Qian was really a prophet, or did Han Qian's understanding of the inside affairs of the Great Liang court three years ago be far above him, the general of the Liang State?
Chen Kun was not hypocritical and perfunctory, and immediately knelt down and said, "Chen Kun knows." ”
"You call the monk and a few of them to come in, today you can only temporarily wronged Rong'er and be buried under this burrow!" Zhu Yu said.
The monk is the leader of Cheng Tianwei's secret guards in charge of Guanzhong affairs, without his cooperation, even if Chen Kun is holding the tiger talisman and golden seal of King Yong, there is no way for a person to fake the military information, let alone mobilize the elite army of Xuanjiadu.
Chen Kun walked out, brought a few people after a while, everyone held knives and shovels, and after removing the coffin, they dug up the tiled green bricks in the house, dug a pit, buried the coffin in it, and re-paved the green bricks, it seemed that the room was only a little higher.
After everything was done, it was already dawn, and the wind and snow had not stopped at this time, Chen Kun said goodbye to King Yong, took the tiger talisman, the golden seal and the secret order of King Yong's handwriting, and led a team of people and horses into the wind and snow, and went in the direction of Guanzhong......
