"Stop, stop. Bring them all here. When the king of Qingxiang heard this, he was puzzled, and when these Dongdi soldiers who claimed to be locals came to him, he asked, "You say that you are all locals, what evidence do you have?" ”

After Zhong Yitong heard this, he came to his senses, he stood up and confidently said in the local dialect: "Wang, the small home is in Chaihe Lane at the north gate." If you don't believe me, the king can send someone to investigate. ”

More than a dozen other people also reported their homes in the local dialect, and they all said that they were locals.

This confuses King Qingxiang.

He suddenly remembered that they said that they were Zhuang Ji's soldiers, and in order to find out the truth, he asked again: "Then why do you say that Zhuang Ji is your general?" Since you are locals, how did you become a soldier in the East? Is it good to go to the East to be a soldier? ”

Zhong Yitong knelt down again and said, "Please forgive the king." The little one was going to weed in the rape field after breakfast, but on the way, someone stopped me and said that if I went to be a soldier in the East for a long time, I could get a 'Golden Sheet Ying' (ancient Chu coin). Now as long as you dress up as a half-day Dongdi soldier, you can get so many 'golden sheets' (ancient Chu coins), and you can also match a set of military uniforms, which are new clothes, and how majestic it is to wear. Such a good thing should not be done unless you are a fool. ”

"Who told you to do that?" King Qingxiang asked, and promised, "Only by telling the truth can you save your lives." Otherwise, don't blame the lonely king for being unkind. ”

More than a dozen tied fake Dongdi soldiers, look at me, I look at you, and in the end, everyone still recommended the bell to speak in unison.

Zhong Yitong knelt down to King Qingxiang and said, "The king is above, and the little one will never dare to lie anymore." Here's the thing......" he continued, after detailing the history of being a soldier in the Upper Eastern, "when we put on our new uniforms, Tian ...... Tian what? Oh, that's right, an official named Tian Shifei gave each of us a 'golden sheet and a name', plus one person, and then gave ten grimaces money, at that time, many of us pulled people, and the grimace money we got to buy pancakes and fruits to eat, oh, my lord, the pancakes are fragrant. ”

King Qingxiang said "um" and said, "What you say makes sense. Is Tian Shifei there? ”

No one answered.

Jin Shang saw that the king agreed with those people's nonsense, and thought that he must do his best to reverse the situation, otherwise, his life would not be saved. So, he defended: "Your Majesty, you can't listen to them. Think about it, how could Tian Shifei be the general of the Dongdi Army? This must have been premeditated by someone who deliberately deceived the king and persecuted the loyal and good. At the same time, he turned to the dozen or so Dongdi soldiers and said, "It's too late for you to change your words now, the king has long known that the general of the Dongdi soldiers is Zhuang Ji who stands in front of you, this is what you confessed to yourself, but before you can fart a fart, you will deny it, are you still a man?" ”

"Your Majesty, who is this official?" Zhong Yitong asked King Qingxiang curiously.

"Bold. Do you dare to ask the king? I see that you are living impatiently. The king, quickly order that all these eastern soldiers be beheaded to prevent future troubles. Jin Shang was in a cold sweat, and he had to persuade King Qingxiang at every turn.

Zhong Yitong saw that King Qingxiang didn't squeak, and his body couldn't help but tremble and said: "What we say is the truth, if there is a half-word lie, the king, you can kill my head, but you must let them all go, and that General Zhuang, we have not known his ancestors for eight lifetimes, and there is nothing about him." ”

Jin Shangru grabbed a life-saving straw and said, "Look at it, King Mingjian." They started protecting a person because they understood that as long as they kept the person, they could all live. Therefore, the king must not let them and Zhuang Ji go, otherwise, the state of Chu will be in danger. ”

After watching Jin Shang's reconciliation, Qu Yuan made an idea to King Qingxiang and said: "King, the truth about the Dongdi soldiers has been revealed to the world, and Zhuang Ji should also be free." According to the old minister, Tian Shifei should be found now, and he should face to face with these people, or ask them to identify them face to face, isn't everything clear? ”

King Qingxiang immediately ordered: "Chuan Tian Shi flew into the palace." ”

Tian Shifei was waiting outside for the king's final order, so he could find Jin Shang to receive the reward, and by the way, he went to see the excitement of the village. Therefore, when he heard the king's order, he ran to the king in ecstasy, and after bowing down, he said, "The king is above, and the little Tian Shifei knocks to see the king, and wishes the king good health." ”

King Qingxiang pretended to have nothing to do and said, "Tian Shifei, it's good that you're here." The lonely king asks you, do you know these people? ”

"I know, they are small Dongdi soldiers who have just been captured, and they lurked in Yingdu to murder the king, but before they touched the door of the palace, they were arrested by me first." Tian Shifei replied with sophistication.

King Qingxiang pointed to Zhong Yitong again and asked: "Zhong Yitong and others, you all watch, this Tian Shifei, do you know each other?" ”

Zhong Yitong looked at it and did not speak, but staggered to Tian Shifei, knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Tian, I can see you." You have come just in time, otherwise, the king will cut off our heads, and you must testify to us and save us. ”

"This ...... This...... Where does this begin? Tian Shifei didn't know the purpose of King Qingxiang to pass him into the palace, so it was not easy to answer directly.

Jin Shang immediately interjected, deliberately reminding: "Tian Shifei, how do you know these people? They're all ruffians who have nothing to do with you. ”

King Qingxiang spoke: "Jin Aiqing, how can you speak? ”

"yes. The king talks to Tian Shifei, what does it have to do with you? Qu Yuan couldn't bear it anymore.

Tian Shifei seemed to understand what Jin Shang meant, and said in a slurching voice: "Report to the king, the matter is ...... That's the case, these Eastern soldiers are dying, and they still have to lie. They confessed to themselves, saying that the leader was Zhuang Ji, and the next errand runner, how could they know them? ”

King Qingxiang's face changed: "Huh? Tian Shifei, do you know them? If you say it to death, you won't have to save the lonely king from doing something Mingjian. ”

Tian Shifei's cheeks suddenly turned white, and he trembled all over and said, "Report to the king, Tian Shifei has never seen these people, and he has nothing to do with them. Please King Mingjian. ”

"Okay, the Lone King will come to Mingjian once." King Qingxiang asked Zhong Yitong, "You also said to death, and there is no room for it." Do you and your accomplices recognize this Tian Shifei in front of you? ”

Zhong Yitong hugged his hands and said, "Report to the king, we know Tian Shifei, it is the golden sheet he sent us. ”

"Report to the king, yes, it's this golden sheet that Tian Shifei sent us." The other tied fake Dongdi soldiers said in unison.

"Haha...... Ha ha...... The Lone King has seen it. King Qingxiang smiled and said, "Listen up: acquit Zhong Yitong and all other fake Dongdi soldiers; tied Tian Shifei up and detained pending trial. ”

The guards rushed out from both sides of the king, and they all went about their duties.

Tian Shifei twisted his shoulders to get rid of the guards who bound him, and knelt down in front of King Qingxiang and said, "King, you can't do this. They are wronged, and this is all their premeditated evil. ”

The guards saw that King Qingxiang was indifferent to this, and regardless of Tian Shifei's, they came up and pressed him to the ground and tied his arms.

Tian Shifei continued to struggle and shouted, "Doctor Jin, you can't ignore the small ones." It's your ...... that the little ones do."

Jin Shang stepped forward, suddenly pulled out a short sword from his waist, and stabbed at Tian Shifei.

Fortunately, the guard armor was quick and grabbed Jin Shang's arm and said, "Doctor Jin, the king is above, you can't kill people." ”

Jin Shang was like a deflated ball, his arm was weak, and the short sword in his hand fell to the ground.

The guards commanded the guards and immediately escorted Tian Shifei out of the palace and locked him in prison.

Seeing all this, King Qingxiang deliberately asked: "The elegant Jin Aiqing, why did he suddenly poison Tian Shifei, a little scoundrel?" ”

Jin Shang raised his head in shock, but said calmly: "The old minister is just acting for the king. Didn't the king also want to kill Tian Shifei, a little scoundrel? The old minister thought, how can such a little scoundrel use to dirty the king's hands? ”

"Well, it's still Jin Aiqing who understands the heart of the lonely king." King Qingxiang said helplessly, "It's just that Jin Aiqing's hand strength is too soft, and he didn't complete the task for King Gu." ”

"That's because the guard's hand is too fast, otherwise, Tian Shifei will definitely be crippled by him." Qu Yuan added.

Jin Shang's eyes rolled Qu Yuan and said: "The king is talking to the old minister, Qu Lao'er, you don't intervene, if you talk more about the matter, the old minister asks the king to exile you to Jiangnan to feed the fish." ”

"This ...... This...... King, Jin Lao'er is becoming more and more unpresentable. Qu Yuan followed that and said, "If there is really such a day, the old minister will be happy if he wants to come." Of course, the king is wise, the state of Chu is strong, the ministers feed the fish, and the people are happy. ”

King Qingxiang saw that Jin Shang had too much control over the affairs of the palace, and if he wanted to interrogate Tian Shifei alone, he had to separate them, so he said: "Two Aiqing, let's get busy, King Gu wants to rest for a while." ”

As soon as Qu Yuan heard it: "The king rested, and the old minister retired." ”

After Qu Yuan left, Jin Shang suggested: "Qu Yuan's old man is gone, why doesn't the king bring Tian Shifei here and seize the time for interrogation?" ”

King Qingxiang was shocked, could it be that King Lone's mind was all seen through by him? So he said tentatively: "Do you think King Gu wants to interrogate Tian Shifei?" ”

"Haha, it's not easy." Jin Shang said confidently, "Seeing that the king is in such a hurry today, I can't wait to finish everything in the blink of an eye." The king is quick and decisive, this is the blessing of the Chu State. ”

"King Gu said, tell you to retreat, you want to rest, how can you mean to judge Tian Shifei?" King Qingxiang said deliberately in concealment.

Jin Shang took a step back and said, "Okay, good, the old minister won't disturb the king's rest." He left the palace and hurriedly found Gou Han Dao, "Wu Shixun and Tian Shifei are both detained, do you know?" Little dog Han, now the old minister can only use you. ”
