Chapter 290: The human heart is far darker than you think
"Smack!"
If it weren't for the enamel porcelain teacup that was thrown out and smashed by the marble bricks, I really wouldn't have seen that this "big smoker" Gao Cixiang could have such a big hand.
"A bunch of stuff eating inside and out!"
The eunuch palace daughters around the main hall were so frightened that they dared to raise their heads, and all of them knelt deeply on the ground, eager to hide their heads in the cold floor tiles to avoid King Yong's eyes that seemed to have a substantial sharp aura.
Gonggong Sun, who was only on the side, seemed to be prepared, paced to the front of the dragon chair with small steps, and whispered with relief: "Your Highness, you can dissipate your anger, for these people can't do it, and you will hurt your body again." ”
Maybe it was because of the anger in his chest, the originally pale face also slightly added a flesh red, picked up the two books on the table with his hands, and asked Grandpa Sun while shaking: "Is that all?" Are there any others? ”
"Back to His Royal Highness, General Liu used all the guys in the Northern Army prison, then Zheng Jingyun said that he knew so much, and it was Li Jin who told him to do this, it seems that he should only know this." Grandpa Sun replied respectfully with a low brow.
"What about Li Jin?"
"He ......"
Gonggong Sun seemed to mention Li Jin, and he was a little embarrassed, this appearance fell in the eyes of King Yong, and it was not surprising that he was killed with a look.
"Don't you understand what I'm asking?"
"Yes, Yes, Your Highness!"
Rao is grandfather-in-law Sun had already prepared, and he was also frozen by this ice-pick-like words, and hurriedly said: "Li Jin, who claimed to be a close minister of the first emperor, not only didn't say anything, but also sent the folding fan given by the emperor to prison from the people in the house. It's been many days since I went in, and I didn't spit out a word. ”
"Good, good, really my father's loyal servant."
The gloomy aura gathered on Gao Cixiang's face quickly turned the trace of blood red that had just been added into nothing, and said with a gloomy face: "When Gao Cixun was in charge of the country before, no one was as diligent as him running day by day, but now that everyone is gone, he is still a thief, since he is so loyal to my father and emperor, I, as a son, should let him be filial." ”
As he spoke, he turned his hand and pointed at the grandfather-in-law, "You go to the prison in person and interrogate Li Jin!" ”
"Yes, lord."
Gonggong Sun seemed to be waiting for King Yong's words, his chin lowered smiled without a trace, and said respectfully,
"Lord Wang, there is one more thing, the old slave doesn't know whether to talk about it or not."
Gao Cixiang turned his head and glanced at him, and said coldly: "If you don't think it's appropriate to talk about it, then don't talk about it." ”
These words made Grandpa Sun a little embarrassed and couldn't get off the stage, and if he was prepared in advance, he had to knead and crush it and put it back together, and said stubbornly: "The old slave thinks that this matter is related to the ministry, and he should still say that he knows with King Yong." That day, the old slave was chatting with General Liu, and I heard General Liu inadvertently say that when Zheng Jingyun was detained, a person claiming to be a servant went to see him, and General Liu thought it was assigned by you, so he didn't stop him. The man went in and talked for about a while before coming out, and since then, Zheng Jingyun began to vomit things, if it weren't for General Liu's means, I don't know how long it would have been delayed. ”
"Which one of the officials? Why didn't Liu Biao come to tell me himself? ”
When King Yong asked this, his eyes were staring at the scattered folds on the dragon case, as if he was just asking casually, but Sun Gonggong, who had been by his side for more than 20 years, understood that the eyes in Gao Cixiang's heart were staring at him directly.
"When I returned to His Highness, the man was wearing a large gray cloth cloak and did not see his face. Moreover, General Liu felt that he had just arrived, and if he mentioned this matter of chasing wind and shadows to you, it would be a bit of a joke, so he also asked the old slave not to mention it to you. ”
King Yong was silent for a long time, and then he said coldly: "Playing with right and wrong, if you don't figure it out, who knows who is playing with right and wrong, you don't even dare to show your face, and it's not a fair and honest thing." ”
After saying this, Gao Cixiang looked a lot tired, leaned on the dragon chair behind him, slowly closed his eyes, and raised his hand towards Grandpa Sun, "Go, go and make Li Jin's matter clear before coming back to me." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Grandpa Sun bowed deeply again, and then turned around and walked out of the main hall.
.................
Northern Army Prison
Compared with the current Li Jin, what Zheng Jingyun suffered before was simply heavenly.
The so-called black prison is actually a deep tunnel that is artificially dug and extends diagonally downward, and there are iron locks on the ground at the bottom of the corridor, which can lock the prisoners in it firmly on the ground.
However, if this "locked" ground is just to control your hands and feet, it will definitely not make those jailers who are usually vicious and fierce-eyed talk about it.
Because the chains on this place are able to string the prisoner's hands and feet together, that is, the prisoner can only maintain a half-kneeling position when he is locked, and it is absolutely impossible to straighten his waist.
Sensei said that Li Jin, a half-grown little old man, even if he was a strong young man's waist, he couldn't stand it like this every day.
When Liu Biao took his grandfather Sun and Liu Qingyi to open the door of the black prison, this Li Jin couldn't see even a trace of the original look of the head of the minister, and the already small pair of eyes were stabbed tightly by the sudden light because they were used to the darkness, and an expensive Shu brocade straight embellished bullfighting suit was already ragged.
"Father-in-law Li, I haven't seen you for many days, how are you doing lately?" Grandpa Sun's sharp voice wandered back and forth like a lonely ghost in the deep corridor,
Sun Gonggong's voice was even more powerful than a tranquilizer for Li Jin,
When a ray of dazzling sunlight came in just now, Li Jin, who didn't see the person who came clearly, waved his arm and struggled twice with an iron chain, and when he heard Grandpa Sun's words clearly, he suddenly stopped moving, and laughed hoarsely,
"Hey, hey, hey~"
Hearing this laughter, Zhu Qingyi, who was standing behind Liu Biao, had his hairs standing on end, coupled with the already gloomy black prison, not to mention how penetrating it was.
"I didn't expect it, the miscellaneous family is still folded in your hands, little grandson, you are very handsome!"
Liu Biao next to him almost laughed out loud when he heard it, and said in his heart that it was really not good to be a eunuch surnamed Sun, otherwise anyone would be his grandfather.
But Grandpa Sun himself didn't seem to care about this, and then Li Jin's words said: "When I first entered the palace, you praised me like this, more than 20 years have passed, and Grandpa Li's memory is really good." ”
"Do you really hate me that much?"
Grandpa Sun sneered, "Grandpa Li, you have been the eunuch of the Celebrant Seal for more than ten years, and it is time to abdicate and make way for Xian, you can even lose the seal letter, it can be seen that you are also dizzy." Why don't you take the initiative to give up your seat early, so that people can respect Li Xiang in the future, and you have to let me, who is an apprentice, pull you down, are you willing? ”
Li Jin's squinting eyes may have eased up, but suddenly widened suddenly, staring at Sun Gonggong and said, "Do you think that I don't know that all this is manipulated by you?" Do you think I don't know that you're confusing and reversing black and white? ”
"Hahaha!"
Grandpa Sun was about to burst into tears by Li Jin's vicious-sounding words, laughed wantonly, and then mocked Li Jin with great sarcasm: "My Father-in-law Li, you are really clever!" ”
As he spoke, he pointed to Liu Biao behind him, "But what's the use?" Do you think I'm here to chat with you today? Today, I specially sent you to see the first emperor! ”
Li Jin listened to Grandpa Sun's words, and there was not much change, maybe from the moment he heard Grandpa Sun's voice, he knew that he had ended here,
His eyes that were originally staring at Grandpa Sun couldn't help but ease, and with his face that looked a little pale because he hadn't seen the light of day for a long time, the whole person's expression looked quite indifferent.
He didn't look at Grandpa Sun, but looked at Liu Biao and Zhu Qingyi behind him, followed his previous words, and said to himself: "Do you think that I don't know who let go of the imperial concubine without permission?" Dancing with wolves, you will eventually become a pile of bones, just like me. ”
Liu Biao, who glanced at this eye, shivered for no reason, like a cold evil aura from his hair to his heels, and the handle of the knife in his hand subconsciously tightened,
Not only him, but Zhu Qingyi, who has always been confident next to him, was also shocked twice by Li Jin's words.
What does Li Jin mean by this? Did he know anything? How did he know?
This whole thing was put down, it was Zhu Qingyi and Liu Biao who discussed the private indulgence of the imperial concubine Sun first, and after the accident later, there was the fire that Gonggong Sun rushed to the bamboo mansion to borrow that night, and burned Li Jin.
So in itself, Grandpa Sun doesn't know who let go of the imperial concubine, otherwise, according to this Grandpa Sun's treacherous nature, he will definitely be the first to stab King Yong, so Liu Biao and Zhu Qingyi will definitely not be able to stand here completely, so even Grandpa Sun is in the dark, there is no reason for Li Jin to know?
However, listening to the meaning of what he just said, it is obvious that he heard some rumors?
These two people were muttering in their hearts, and the proud grandfather Sun in front of him may not have listened very carefully, so he didn't care about Li Jin's words, but sneered and teased Li Jin: "This doesn't have to worry about Father-in-law Li, and when you are disposed of, Prince Yong will naturally show me to be the master of ceremonies, and I will definitely become a pile of white bones in the end, but unlike you, I want to enter Nanling, and you can only enter the underworld." ”
"Hehehe, little grandson, little grandson!"
Because this black prison is very dark and damp, compared to Li Jin's stay here for a long time, he broke his throat, and he spoke well, and when he smiled, it was like the beginning, revealing that kind of hoarseness, as if his throat was blocked by something, it sounded very uncomfortable,
"It's been more than ten years, and you haven't grown at all, King Yong, it's never something you and I can figure out."
Li Jin shook his head with a wry smile as he spoke, and suddenly raised his head suddenly, and asked with a darker look in his eyes that was richer than this black prison: "Do you know where Xiao Luzi is now?" ”
"Which little Luzi?" Grandpa Sun frowned and asked,
He must not know, can Liu Biao and Zhu Qingyi not know later?
Which little Luzi? Of course, it was the little Lu Zi who took the seal letter from Li Jin that night and said that he would help him send him back to the celebrant supervisor, but the prison guard stole the little Lu Zi who came out of the Northern Army Tiger Fu!
When Zhu Qingyi discussed with Liu Biao about letting the imperial concubine out of the palace, he said that he was going to try his luck with him, but luck was good, that little Lu Zi agreed to help them, but after the matter was over, no one was found until now.
Liu Biao always thought that it was because of this cowardice and fear, so he slipped away first, although Zhu Qingyi kept telling him to find that little Luzi, but he only didn't care, until today, he was mentioned by Li Jin again......
"Hahahaha!"
Li Jin looked at Grandpa Sun who was dazed, and Liu Biao and Zhu Qingyi, who had wandering eyes but didn't understand what they were doing, and laughed hysterically, feeling as if the three of them had done something to make Li Jin look ridiculous.
Li Jin, who laughed unscrupulously like this, of course, was not the effect that Sun Gonggong wanted, and it also made him lose the patience to entangle with Li Jin, turned around and waved his hand at Liu Biao and said: "General Liu, you know what Prince Yong means, deal with it as soon as possible!" ”
"Got it, father-in-law."
Liu Biao responded, and then beckoned to the sergeant behind him, quickly pulled out the crotch knife from his waist, stepped forward in two steps, and riveted his strength at the back of Li Jin's heart, who was still laughing.
Perhaps it was the torture that had been pampered for several days, so that this pampered body even lost the strength of the blood gushing, just accompanied by a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth and an abrupt laughter, Li Jin's head lowered heavily for the last time.
"Find a few people to carry them out and throw them on the mass grave."
After Liu Biao finished instructing the two sergeants who had just started, he turned around and followed Zhu Qingyi out of this deep black prison one after another.
As soon as he stepped out of the prison door, he saw Zhu Qingyi in front of him taking advantage of the fact that his grandfather had already walked away, and suddenly turned around, and said to himself almost word by word with a straight face:
"That little eunuch, you must find it!"
