Chapter Twenty-Eight: Is It a Coincidence?
King Aoki took out a letter from his bosom and said, "Since I learned that the old castle lord was killed by a traitor, my subordinates were heartbroken, and they wept all night and couldn't extricate themselves. The heart of revenge for the old city lord is always in his heart, and it is not in vain for the old city lord's kindness. ”
"Xin Hao God has eyes, thanks to the blessing of the new city lord, and today I received a secret letter, please take a look at the city lord, and you can know it at a glance. Aoki shuddered and handed the letter to the wind.
Feng Lai unfolded the secret letter, and after reading the letter, the anger on his face was overflowing. Handed the letter to Mingluo.
Mingluo unfolded the letter raft and saw the letter say: "The Lord of the Moon Palace is above, and Li Li worships it."
In the past, thanks to the promotion of the Moon Palace, the cultivation of magic weapons, to be able to worship as the king of the county in the country of wind, the brother wants to let me discuss the replacement of the position of the city lord, the brother is grateful, and is willing to cooperate with each other, the position of the city lord belongs to the brother, and the life of the city lord belongs to the brother, I hope that the brother will not forget this. "At the end of the letter is the seal of Li Li, the king of Beijun.
Mingluo finished reading the letter and said: "This matter is strange, why did you intercept this letter yesterday, I don't know how the king of the county intercepted this letter?" ”
Mingluo said to the wind, "Flying arrows to pass on books is done by mortals, whether it is immortal transmission or secret transmission, isn't it child's play to use ordinary letters." Feng Lai pondered: "Maybe it was the Moon Heart of the Underworld who asked Li Li to write, in case he regretted the battle, it is not impossible." What's more, there is a big seal at the end of the letter, which should be true. ”
Mingluo handed back the letter to Feng Lai and said: "The Great Seal can also be imitated, and this matter needs to be handled carefully." "Feng Lai said with anger on his face: 'There is a snake venom before, and what other soldiers have the soil of Beijun on their bodies, plus this secret letter, what else can't prove that he is the original murderer of my father and brother?'
King Aoki also said: "There must be a reason for something, and we must take precautions as soon as possible, so that we will not be passive." Fenglai nodded and said: "The king of Qingjun is reasonable, now that the city has gone through the last battle, the troops are insufficient, you quickly mobilize the troops of Nanjun to come to the capital in case of accidents." ”
Aoki commanded: "Yes, city lord, my subordinates will do it immediately." ”
After the king of Aoki left, the wind came to Mingluo and said: "Mingluo, you see how credible Aoki's words are." Mingluo lowered his head and pondered: "The king of Aoki County is in Nanjun to keep to himself, I haven't heard of him doing anything out of the ordinary in the past few years, and he can still be trusted at present." ”
Fenglai raised his hand and picked up Mingluo's hand and clenched it tightly: "I'm the same as you think, but, Mingluo, you are my good brother, I believe that even if the world loses me, you won't fail me." ”
Mingluo knelt down and said: "Don't worry, the city lord, Mingluo will never be sorry for the city lord:... Feng Lai hurriedly pulled up Mingluo and said: "You think about it too much, I just saw the betrayal of my father's subordinates, and I felt it." ”
While they were talking, a guard soldier hurriedly came to report: "Tell the city lord, Li Li, the king of Beijun, asks to see you." ”
Mingluo and Fenglai looked at each other in surprise, and Fenglai ordered the soldiers: "Announce him quickly." ”
In the middle of the year, a middle-aged man in clothes followed the soldiers into the main hall, the middle-aged man was gentle and elegant, majestic and inward, dressed in a silver heavy brocade suit, amethyst bundle of hair, and white hair was not messy.
He walked up to Feng Lai and knelt down and said, "The criminal minister Li Li will see the city lord." Fenglai raised his hand and said, "What is the crime of King Li Jun? ”
Li Li didn't get up and cried with tears in his eyes: "The criminal minister was loved by the old city lord and was appointed as the king of the northern county, but I didn't expect the old city lord to be killed by a traitor, and the criminal minister was far away in the northern county and could not protect the old city lord, the minister is guilty!"
Feng Lai smiled lightly: "King Li Jun has a heart, it is not your fault that your father was killed, hurry up." ”
Li Li got up and said: "I don't blame the city lord for my kindness, but I received a secret letter early this morning, which can prove that the king of Nanjun colluded with the Hades power Moon Heart Demon to assassinate the old city lord, and the minister didn't dare to make a mistake, so he immediately sent it to the city lord." ”
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Fenglai, flew to take it and opened it, and silently handed it to Mingluo.
Mingluo opened it and took a look, and the letter was cloudy: The Lord of the Moon Palace is above, and Aoki Yin worships it.
In the past, thanks to the promotion of the Moon Palace, the cultivation of magic weapons, to be able to worship as the king of the county in the country of wind, the brother wants to let me discuss the replacement of the position of the city lord, the brother is grateful, and is willing to cooperate with each other, the position of the city lord belongs to the brother, and the life of the city lord belongs to the brother, I hope that the brother will not forget this. ”
The end of the letter was replaced by the Great Seal of Aoki, the king of Nanjun.
Mingluo checked the paper used in the letter and the same as the one used by King Nanjun just now, the difference is that the handwriting style is different.
Mingluo glanced at Fenglai, and Fenglai was as surprised as Mingluo. Mingluo Jishou said: "King Li Jun has a heart, I don't know where this letter came from?"
Li Li touched his chin and said, "It's strange to say, someone sent a message to the post house where I lived. ”
Mingluo gave Feng Lai a look, and Feng Lai understood what Ming Luo meant: "King Li Jun, are you guilty!" As soon as Feng Lai's words fell, several black-clothed soldiers flashed in the side hall to surround the King of Beijun.
As soon as these words came out, Li Li knelt down in a panic and said, "The old minister doesn't know what crime he has committed, and he asks the city lord to tell me." ”
Feng Lai said angrily: "Do you know that my father is heavy on snake yin poison, and this poison comes from within the northern border, how do you explain it?"
Li Li immediately shouted: "Lord, his subordinates have been wronged, it is true that the snake yin poison is produced in Beijun, but although the color yin poison is difficult to take, the cultivators in Fengcheng who are not afraid of death can take it, regardless of the north and the south?"
"But the soldiers who attacked the capital that day had the soil of the north on their feet, how do you explain it?" Fenglai continued to ask.
Sweat flowed from Li Li's head and hurriedly said: "The city lord is wronged, now the magic circle is powerful, and it is not impossible to teleport thousands of miles away, this must be someone framing Weichen, please see the city lord." As he spoke, Li Li's head slammed deep on the ground.
Fenglai didn't intend to let go of Li Li's preparation, and threw the letter sent by the King of Nanjun to Li Lidao: "Then how do you explain what is going on?"
Li Li trembled and picked up the letter on the ground and looked at it carefully: "The minister is wronged, this is not written by me, this big seal and handwriting are somewhat similar to the minister's, but it is definitely not the minister's doing." ”
"King Beijun, I don't know if you have any way to prove it?" Mingluo asked.
Li Li thought for a moment and hurriedly said: "The minister can prove that when the city lord gave me the Great Seal of the King of Beijun in the past, in order to prevent someone from pretending to be the Great Seal, he specially added a secret spell to it, and the print would turn into a goldfish shape when it encountered water. Please verify with the lord of the castle. ”
Fenglai hadn't heard his father mention it, but it wasn't impossible. He called for the soldiers to bring a basin of water.
Soon, the soldiers put a basin of water in the main hall, Li Li wiped the sweat on his head, hurriedly put the letter in his hand and said to the city lord of Mingluo and Fenglai: "City lord, General Ming, please see." "The letter paper is like water, the big seal is dissolved, and a small golden fish swims around in the water.
The king of Beijun was dumbfounded, and looked at this impossible thing like a wooden chicken.
Feng Lai said angrily: "What else do you have to say, King Beijun, come and take it down, send it to the big prison, and wait for it." ”
Li Li shouted: "The city lord spare his life, there must be something strange in this, General Ming save me!" The soldiers on the left and right couldn't help but say, grabbed Li Li and dragged him down.
After Li Li pulled it down, Feng Lai said: "This guy is very hateful, and he doesn't admit his guilt in the end." Mingluo persuaded: "The city lord is angry, I don't think the king of the northern county is lying, the old city lord can encrypt the seal of the king of the northern county, and it will also be used on the seal of the king of the southern county, the city lord might as well give it a try." ”
Feng Laijue made sense, put the other letter in his hand into the water, and the big seal turned into a goldfish swimming in the water.
Mingluo felt that things were a little incomprehensible and said: "It's strange, someone knows this secret spell to divide the relationship between the city lord and the county king." ”
A soldier hurriedly came over and reported: "City Lord, someone has brought a box outside the city gate, indicating that it will be handed over to General Ming. ”
Fenglai and Mingluo came to the outside of the main hall, and the box was about a foot or so, and the guards opened the box. Inside was a human head.
Mingluo stepped forward to check, it was the head of the stabbing guest who was fighting with him, Fenglai saw the change in Mingluo's expression and asked, "Who is he?"
Mingluo said regretfully: "It was an assassin in the Nanjun Wangyi Pavilion, and I thought that it was not easy for him to cultivate at the time, so I spared his life." ”
"Why did you kill his head and give it to us?" Fenglai was a little puzzled.
Mingluo analyzed: "The enemy is to make us confused about who he is, what is he going to do? But he made a mistake, if he doesn't move, I don't know who he is, but if he moves too much, he will be exposed." ”
Outside the capital of the Wind Country, the troops of the King of Nanjun approached the gate of the capital, and what greeted them was not flowers and applause, nor supplies for the condolence troops, but endless rain of arrows and artillery attacks. With the attack of the newly formed seven-colored pterodactyl legion in the sky, as well as the powerful firepower attack of the eighteen arrows of Wind City, the troops of the king of the southern county were wiped out.
In the main hall of the Windy City, the once majestic and warlike King Nanjun was escorted by soldiers in the main hall. Nanjun Wang Zheng looked at the wind and the light and fall on the opposite side with a leisurely expression. As if it was they and not him who did it in the cage.
Soon, King Nanjun couldn't help but be curious: "Where did the old man make a mistake for you to catch, do you know it's me?"
Mingluo said with some disappointment: "Actually, you didn't make any mistakes, it's just that when a plan is too perfect, it will make people suspicious, and once the suspicion is formed, and then put the things of the past few days together, the loopholes will come out." ”
"First of all, you arranged for an assassin to assassinate me, chose to be at your accommodation, and arranged for someone who could not kill me to kill me, not to kill me, but to prove that you were not the original culprit.
And you created two fake letters, and the head of the killer so that your army could enter the city without a hitch. The biggest mistake you made was that all the evidence pointed to the king of the northern county. ”
Aoki said: "Isn't this normal, is this also a loophole?" ”
"Yes, this is the biggest failure, if the king of Beijun is such a thoughtful person, how can he throw so much evidence to us, this is unreasonable, don't you think?" asked Mingluo.
