430. Shocked
Before Tian Chengwei's reply arrived, Nangong Pu waited for the news from Changning Town, Datong Prefecture.
At the foot of Xiaowutai Mountain in Changning Town, a battlefield was found. Among the more than 200 corpses, everyone wore the logo of the Northern Army, and many of them embroidered the family emblem of the Nangong clan on their collars. Therefore, the government sent people to find Nangong Pu to identify the body.
Could it be that what the surviving cousin who took in the second room said was true? Nangong Pu didn't dare to slack off, and took a few old people in Qingfeng Hall to the foot of Xiaowutai Mountain in Changning Town.
The destination was in a village behind a mountain forest, but the village seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time, with collapsed houses, overgrown grass, and a few signs of explosions.
When Nangong Pu arrived, this place had already been blocked by the government. Therefore, in addition to involving the Nangong clan, there is also the Tianchengwei military. And Tianchengwei had already sent someone to see it, and it was determined that it was part of the Lubei Army that originally planned to enter Beijing. However, the Lu Beijun is still the private placement of the Nangong clan, so the Nangong clan needs to participate in the processing.
All the corpses were neatly placed together, and Tianchengwei and Datong Mansion sent military doctors and post-mortems to conduct autopsies. Seeing this scene, Nangong Pu felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"This is the eldest prince of Nangong?" A short middle-aged man in an official uniform looked at Nangong Pu and asked.
Nangong Pu nodded, looked at his official uniform and guessed: "In Xia Nangong Pu, this is the magistrate?" β
"Hu Defan, Changning Zhixian County."
"Fortunately." Nangong Pu saluted.
Hu Defan looked tired, waved his hand and said, "Let's not be polite." That's the case, the eldest prince also saw it, it's all your people, right? β
Nangong Pu sighed slightly, "I have written a letter to ask the hall master in charge of Tianchengwei to come here to ......." β
"All dead, aren't they?" Hu Defan interrupted him, "Do you want to identify the body first?" The people of Tianchengwei found four and said that they were all your hall masters. β
Nangong Pu was stunned for a moment, "Four Hall Master? β
Hu Defan didn't answer, beckoned him to follow. One would look at the four corpses on the ground and say, "Lift the cloth and recognize it." β
The four corpses lying on the ground were lifted one by one, and Song Zhi, Jiang Sinian, Wang Xuyao, and Jin Wu were lying neatly on the ground.
Nangong Pu's eyes widened, stunned.
Seeing him standing still, Hu Defan asked, "Eldest prince, isn't it?" β
Nangong Pu gasped and nodded slowly.
"We've found a living man, but it's probably about the same now. Are you going to meet me? Hu Defan said.
"I'm sorry for the trouble, Lord Hu."
It used to be a Buddhist hall in the village, but now the small Buddhist hall is full of the smell of medicine, and there is a man lying on a bed made of wooden planks, his face like ashes, and a doctor is busy treating his wounds.
"This is Dr. Li of Tianchengwei, who came for an autopsy. A few days ago, such a living person was found. Hu Defan explained.
Nangong Pu quickly stepped forward to take a closer look, but the injured person didn't know him. Listening to Hu Defan: "I woke up yesterday and said something, the eldest prince had better listen to it." Then he asked Dr. Li, "Can you still wake up?" β
"This man is not going to live, and I want to hear him...... Well, he couldn't do what he said accurately, and he was dying. Dr. Li explained.
"Hey, you just find a way to let him open his mouth, let the eldest prince listen to it, anyway, you, me, many people have heard it, if he really can't do it, everyone is a witness to this matter." Hu Defan said.
Doctor Li looked at Nangong Pu and sighed heavily, "Master Hu, what this person said is really inaccurate......" Seeing Hu Defan's helpless look, he nodded, "Okay, I'll let him wake up, just ask if the eldest prince has anything to ask, no matter what, his words are really inaccurate." β
Nangong Pu nodded, "Trouble Dr. Li." β
Next, a few people in the room waited for half an hour before the man woke up slowly.
Doctor Li looked at him and asked, "Are you Wang Daming of Qianli Hall?" β
The man nodded for a while, and said weakly: "Nangong Gate Qianli Hall King Daming." β
Nangong Pu stepped forward, held his hand and whispered, "I'm Nangong Pu." If you are injured, the doctor will do his best to treat you, don't worry. β
Doctor Li glanced at Nangong Pu and didn't say anything.
Wang Daming became excited, "Big, big boy." Boss, Boss......"
"Where's the boss? What happened? Nangong Pu asked anxiously, and seeing that he was not in a good condition, he said, "Don't be in a hurry to speak slowly." β
"Second son! It's the second son! The boss is dead! It was Nangong Jin who killed him, and he killed everyone! It's him, it's him! Wang Daming was still emotional.
"YouβDon't talk nonsense." Nangong Pu frowned, but seeing him like this, he couldn't bear to say anything serious.
"The eldest prince, I saw it with my own eyes, Nangong Jin colluded with the Tatars to kill my Han people! The hall master and the head of the house are dead, dead......" Wang Daming cried with all his might.
On the side, Dr. Li kept shaking his head, and couldn't help but say to Nangong Pu: "The second son is guarding the sky and fighting with the Tartars to the end, which I have seen with my own eyes." said that the second son colluded with the Tatars, this is in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, where did the Tatar army come from? The eldest prince, Lord Hu, this is completely impossible. β
"Hey, Lao Li, how long has it been since what you said? People change. Hu Defan couldn't help but say.
"Master Hu," Dr. Li defended Nangong Jin again, "these more than 200 corpses are all corpses of the Lubei Army, how can one side be wiped out in a battle, and the other side has no casualties?" There is not a single body of a Tatar here, not even a trace. As I said earlier, he was seriously injured and delirious, and these things may not have happened at all. β
Hu Defan grabbed Bai and said: "It's hard to say, the corpses of your own people, the Tatars took them away?" Besides, we have found Nangong Dingkang's body, so you ...... it."
"What do you say ?!" Nangong Pu was shocked and grabbed Hu Defan.
Doctor Li said with a disapproving face: "You don't know Nangong Dingkang, it's all like that, how do you know it must be?" Anyway, the one I've seen him doesn't look like this. β
Hu Defan was dissatisfied: "The evidence is here, I want to report this matter......"
Dr. Li was furious, and pointed to Wang Daming who was lying on the bed, "This is a human witness?" He stiffened his neck and said, "You call that corpse physical evidence?" β
"Take me to see it." Nangong Pu was really anxious, the two of them argued endlessly, and he couldn't interject at all.
Wang Daming, who was crying loudly just now, suddenly convulsed wildly. Dr. Li hurriedly said: "Oh no! Help hold him down. As he spoke, he hurriedly took out the silver needle.
After only a moment's effort, Wang Daming, who still had tears on his face, was silent. Dr. Li wiped the sweat from his face and shook his head, "This injury can't be saved." As he spoke, he looked at Nangong Pu, who was still pressing Wang Daming.
"Take me to see it." Nangong Pu watched Hu Defan ask again.
Hu Defan nodded and took the lead. Doctor Li glanced at Wang Daming, who was motionless, put down the silver needle in his hand, and followed Nangong Pu out of the door.
Not far away, the body that Hu Defan said was deliberately rested on a wooden plank and placed under the shade of a tree.
Nangong Pu almost trotted to the front in a hurry, lifted the cover, and frowned at a glance. The corpse seemed to have been hit by something, and the chest was so swollen that it was impossible to see its original appearance, and the flesh and blood were blurred in many places on the body, as if it had been blown up by Huoo. Although it can barely be seen that it is Nangong Dingkang's clothes, anyone can wear the clothes.
"Eldest son, what do you think ......?" Hu Defan asked: "My family, although I can't see the appearance clearly, but the appearance is still there, right?" By the way, are there moles on the body that can identify them? β
Nangong Pu was reminded by him and hurriedly unwrapped the corpse's clothes, but the corpse was full of gunsmoke mixed with dried blood. Hu Defan asked people to bring a water bladder and hand it to Nangong Pu, who carefully washed the waist of the corpse. After a while, although the waist was full of wounds, a brown birthmark could be faintly seen on the edge.
Nangong Pu stopped his hand and stared at the corpse, and suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes.

In this so-called pure mind, there seem to be only two people, Yao Fangyu and Nangong Jin, who are fake. Obviously, she put the medicine in her food, but if she didn't eat it, not only would she starve to death, but she would also know that she had been suspicious for a long time. However, despite this, this 'Yao Fangyu' doesn't seem to want him to die.
Helpless, Nangong Jin could only hurt herself and pretend to be sick.
Sure enough, 'Yao Fangyu' panicked. Probably afraid that the MI medicine would make Nangong Jin more ill, and it didn't seem to be put in the food later. Because, Nangong Jin obviously felt that his hands and feet were strong.
In the past few days, Nangong Jin looked like he was about to die, and 'Yao Fangyu' had completely lost his vigilance against him, but he didn't leave an inch, and even moved the porridge and decoction to the house. As a last resort, Nangong Jin could only pretend to be sick for several nights in a row, at least so that she couldn't sleep in order to take care of herself.
I really didn't expect 'Yao Fangyu' to be so dedicated, taking care of him day and night, without complaints. Maybe it's because of the change of appearance, I can't see her haggard. However, one night I couldn't hold back my tiredness and fell asleep next to him.
Nangong Jin, who had been lying for many days, gently tested it and saw that she didn't react. So, he got up lightly, bypassed her, and picked up a cloak on a hanger and went out.
"Nangong Jin!"
At this time, Nangong Jin had already stepped out of the door. However, the shout behind him was not Ono's voice. Nangong Jin ignored her and continued to walk out briskly.
There was a gust of wind behind him, and 'Yao Fangyu' staggered in front of him, staring at him without any expression on his face, and asked, "You lied to me?!" β
Nangong Jin smiled and said apologetically, "You're tired too." Thank you for taking care of all these days. If there is a fate in the future, I will repay the girl's kindness for taking care of her. β
"Why? What's wrong with me? You're going to lie to me?! "'Yao Fangyu' didn't seem to hear him, and continued to question loudly.
Nangong Jin didn't answer, and said with a smile: "This is not a pure heart. β
"Why are you?! Again and again! "'Yao Fangyu' pointed at him, tears in his eyes.
Nangong Jin frowned at her and didn't speak.
"I'm Yao Fangyu, you like it." 'Yao Fangyu's voice softened. "Isn't it okay for us to live like this for the rest of our lives?" There was pleading in his tone.
Nangong Jin sighed, "Why are you suffering?" I don't know who you are and don't want to know. So be it, I don't want to pursue these things. But, you are not Yao Fangyu. β
