Chapter 21: His Royal Highness the Powerful Prince!
From behind the crowd, the sound of footsteps shaking from the alley leading to the county jail seemed to be accompanied by hundreds of heavily armed foot soldiers.
There were also war horses neighing, and flags fluttering.
In the middle of the flag, there is a huge word: Ming.
In the lower left corner, there is a crouching tiger.
Under the command of King Ming, the tiger is a hero!
More than ten high-headed war horses swept in the wind, and the people at the head were freshly dressed and angry, and their arrogant demeanor was empty.
Wow!
The horse's hooves are raised.
The crisp neighing sound was agitated, and the young man in fresh clothes and angry horses had cold eyes, scanning everyone, "Do you want to die?" ”
Behind him, hundreds of tigers and soldiers were overwhelmed by black clouds, and the cold light shone on the iron clothes.
Hearing that the shield fell to the ground, a uniform loud sound struck everyone's hearts like thunder, and the majestic sense of oppression was like substance, and people with a slightly worse heart even felt suffocated.
The air is stagnant.
Silenced.
In an instant, the whole alley was silent, and even the stupidest person knew who was coming.
The prince of Ming!
It's not the kind of golden sword righteous son, but the son of the Eight Classics.
Zhou Xing is not stupid.
So he quickly figured out one thing: Princess Zhaoning fled and Lu Bing's nephew died in Shuangyang County, these two things were done by King Ming, and the purpose was to get the edict in Princess Zhaoning's hand that could be used on the side of the Qing monarch.
Yue Zhong stepped forward and bent down to salute: "The embroidered clothes point directly to Zhou Xing, the purple embroidered clothes of the Guanning Mansion Branch, and I have seen His Royal Highness the Third Prince." ”
Dozens of embroidered clothes and horses saluted at the same time: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Liang Qi, the third son of King Ming.
Since he was a child, he lived in Kyoto as a proton, and after Taizong's death, King Ming used a stealing beam to change the pillar to let him return to King Ming's domain from Kyoto.
At this moment, he is riding on a tall horse, and his face is expressionless.
Among the more than ten horsemen behind him, there are generals in armor and guns full of bloody atmosphere on the battlefield, and there are also swordsmen and swordsmen who are full of recklessness.
The prince travels, and the three golden swords are guarded.
Liang Qi ignored Zhou Xing, his gaze swept across the crowd, and finally landed on Qi Pingchuan, a mocking smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Dismount.
The three golden sword Yizi then dismounted, and followed the sword in the same direction, not daring to be careless.
After all, this is not the domain of King Ming.
In recent years, there have been as many as four of the sons of the three major vassal kings outside the domain, and the battle between the vassal king, the traitor and Lu Bing, after the death of Taizong, has been secretly bloody.
Liang Qi came straight to Qi Pingchuan and asked coldly, "What about Zhaoning." ”
Qi Pingchuan secretly complained.
Liang Qi's arrival was not unexpected, this was the strategy that came up after discussing with Chen Bi: to drive the tiger and drive the wolf.
The embroidered clothes pointed directly to Fang Lu Bing's nephew and Jin Jianyizi who died in Shuangyang County, and Zhou Xing, the branch of Guanning Mansion, arrived, and it would not be Chen Bi and Qi Pingchuan who could restrain or even suppress Zhou Xing, but only King Ming's people.
So when the case file was delivered to the state government, Chen Bi asked his brother-in-law Jiang to go to Mingzhou.
King Ming's people came in time.
However, as soon as the third son Liang Qi came, he found himself to ask for Princess Zhaoning, which was simple, direct and rude, but the question is where the hell can I find Princess Zhaoning for you?
Even if he wanted to give it, the corpse didn't know where it was hidden by Shang Yousu.
What's more, I didn't plan to give it to him.
His face was impassive, and he said indifferently: "I don't know what Your Highness means, Xiaguan is in Shuangyang County, how have you ever seen Princess Zhaoning." ”
"Xiaguan?"
Liang Qi sneered, "You are also worthy!" ”
Qi Pingchuan was angry from his heart, where is Lao Tzu unworthy, Lao Tzu is also a hereditary county lieutenant.
The county lieutenant is an official, not an official!
Take a deep breath.
Fake and honest, "I-"
Liang Qi waved his hand and savagely interrupted Qi Pingchuan, "This son doesn't want to listen to nonsense. ”
Suddenly lowered his voice, "Qi Pingchuan, you are waiting for Jiang Zhutou to come to Mingzhou to present a secret report, but you want to use the power of my father to block the edge of the embroidered clothes for you, but it is a clever plan to drive away the tiger and the wolf, but you haven't thought about it, it is easy to please God!" ”
Qi Pingchuan looked innocent, "I don't understand what His Highness is talking about." ”
Liang Qi's eyes were disdainful, and he sneered, "It's really a waste!" ”
Turning around, he glanced at Chen Bi, who was methodically treated by Lang Zhong after passing out, and then looked at Zhou Xing not far away, His Royal Highness the Third Prince's eyes flashed with madness, and he was even more full of undisguised killing intent, "Before dark, this prince wants to see Princess Zhaoning, whether she lives or dies, of course, whether you live or die!" ”
Liang Qi returned to his horse and waved.
The soldiers in the array unsheathed their swords and spears like a forest, enclosing the entire small square in front of the county jail.
Ambition is bound to win!
Zhou Xing was creepy.
He guessed what Liang Qi meant, and also guessed why Liang Qi would lead the Tiger Ben elite infantry to appear here against the convention.
It was Chen Bi and Qi Pingchuan's plan to drive away the tiger and the wolf.
I have to say, this trick is beautiful!
Chen Bi and Qi Pingchuan only need to inform King Ming and tell the truth about the death of Jin Jianyizi, and with the wisdom of King Ming and his advisers, they can naturally guess the escape of Princess Zhaoning.
Of course, Zhou Xing now believes that Princess Zhaoning's escape was the handiwork of King Ming.
Otherwise, even if King Ming's people avenge the dead Jin Jian Yizi, they would not let the third son, Liang Qi, personally lead the soldiers and horses to come.
But judging from Liang Qi's attitude towards Qi Pingchuan, there is no connection between Qi Pingchuan and King Ming.
If he speculated like this, Zhou Xing came to a completely different conclusion.
Qi Pingchuan was innocently implicated!
Something doesn't seem right......
Zhou Xing always felt that the group of people Qi Pingchuan and Chen Bi would not be so simple, that invisible force, is it the layout of King Ming, or is there someone else?
However, the top priority is how to solve Liang Qi.
Zhou Xing's mind was racing, and he quietly paced to Qi Pingchuan's side, squeezing out an ugly smile: "County Lieutenant Qi, the prince of Liang Qi led his troops out of the domain to come to Shuangyang regardless of the law of the Great Levy, if he can't find Princess Zhaoning, you and I will have to die." ”
Qi Pingchuan was overjoyed in his heart.
Zhou Xingfu softened?!
Perfect!
With the arrival of Liang Qi, everything finally proceeded according to the previous deduction.
Qi Pingchuan also served.
It was Chen Bi who served.
After delivering the case to the state capital, he secretly discussed the evolution of the next thing with himself, and even said the details of the deduction, according to his deduction, Zhou Xing will most likely come to Shuangyang, and King Ming will have a son to come to Shuangyang.
It's just that the only thing Chen Bi didn't calculate was that he would be tortured by Zhou Xing to extract a confession.
But the next moment, Qi Pingchuan broke out in a cold sweat.
Chen Bi must have put on a show!
He doesn't say anything!
In other words, this scholar had long deduced that he might be tortured by Zhou Xing, a cool official, but he still played the two chess games of causing trouble and driving tigers and wolves without hesitation.
He was gambling, betting that he would survive the torture or die in the torture chamber.
Such vision and boldness......
Chen Bi is talented.
This scholar, who is only a county magistrate in Shuangyang County, is really aggrieved.
He is completely a talent for the country!
