From time to time, the dark cell was filled with the sound of rats squeaking, and the dampness and stench stirred into the air, making every breath extremely uncomfortable.

Wang Teng and Du Sanjin slept in the dry grass pile in the corner of the wall, and Li Yue sat next to the wooden case in the center of the cell, in the form of an old monk. No matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't figure out how his identity was revealed.

The people of Youguo only knew that they were the people of the Holy Protector Army, but yesterday the people of the Soldiers and Horses Division did not go through any investigation, and they went directly to the barracks to arrest themselves, as well as Wang Teng and Du Sanjin, and obviously had a clear grasp of the situation that day. There were so many people who watched the excitement that day, even if they could find it, but it would take time for the people of the Terracotta Division to interrogate them one by one! Could it be that there is a zealous sunrise...... Yes! No...... Now it should be reported by the people of Lin'an......

Li Yue just thought about it.

There was also a broken bowl on the wooden table in the prison, and there were still some broken leaves in it, and rats were circling around the broken bowl. Du Sanjin turned over again, and there was a lot of movement as before, making the broken bowl on the wooden case make a gentle sound.

interrupted Li Yue's chaotic thoughts, and frightened the rat out of the cell.

Li Yue reluctantly opened his eyes and said to Du Sanjin: "If you can't sleep, don't sleep, even the mice are so annoying that they don't want to be in the same room with you!" ”

Hearing this, Du Sanjin got up from the dry grass pile, ran to Li Yue's side and squatted down and asked, "Head, have you come up with a way?" What do we do next? ”

Li Yue glanced at him: "Cold salad!" ”

Hearing these two words, Wang Teng, who was sleeping like a dead man on the other side, sat up suddenly, rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Is it cold eggplant or cold cucumber?" ”

Li Yue almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of blood when he heard it, and said angrily: "Wang Teng! It's all dying, and you still only think about eating! ”

After speaking, Li Yue lifted the broken bowl on the case and was about to smash it at Wang Teng, but he heard a noise outside, and there was a sound of talking in his ears. Li Yue glanced at Du Sanjin beside him, and Du Sanjin immediately shrank back into the corner. Wang Teng fell into the haystack and continued to sleep.

Li Yue turned his head to look outside, and a jailer led He Shou, the priest of Dali Temple, who had been interrogating them for the past few days, in. When the cell door was opened, the jailer bowed his head and left.

He Shou has an elegant face, a beard that is nearly a foot long, well-trimmed, and looks extremely graceful. As soon as He Shou entered the cell with his feet, Li Yue got up and bowed: "The last general has seen He Sicheng!" ”

He Shou turned a blind eye to Li Yue, who was saluting, walked to the place where he was sitting before, sat down by himself, and waited until he sat down and asked, "Li Qitou, what are you thinking with your two brothers?" Is there anything else you would like to say to this officer? ”

Li Yue stood respectfully in front of He Shou and replied: "Lord Sicheng said that he laughed, we have said what should be said." This is not a big deal, the great brother apologized to the deputy envoy of the Youguo, and then smashed the pot and sold the iron to compensate him for some medical expenses. ”

He Shou glanced at him, but said with a sneer: "The diplomatic relations between the two countries are so insignificant in your eyes? This matter has already made His Majesty Long Yan furious, and Tang Xiang strictly ordered the official to find out the mastermind behind the sabotage of the peace talks. ”

Li Yue's face changed abruptly, and He Shou thought that this person was moved by his own words, so he continued to speak: "If you confess to the mastermind, maybe the Holy Dragon Yan Dayue can leave you a way to live." ”

"Lord He, this matter is too much to worry about. The last general has a marriage contract with the little sister of the Xiao family, and the envoy is teasing on the street and making disrespectful remarks, and the last general has endured the repeated envoys but has to make inches, and he did not suppress the fire for a while. Li Yue said with an innocent face: "I still hope that Lord He will be enlightened and sage, things are really not that complicated." ”

He Shou snorted coldly and said, "It seems that this official is still too polite to you. Give you another night to think about it, if you don't confess the mastermind, the official will be executed. ”

After saying that, He Shou got up and left, without looking at Li Yue, whose face was pale.

Out of the cell, He Shou turned over and went straight to Tangfu. I saw Tang Hao in the middle of the night and said to him: "Xiangguo, the prisoner has been imprisoned for three days, and there are no high-ranking officials and dignitaries to rescue him. The lower official uses a head guarantee, and he will definitely get a confession tomorrow! ”

"This time you have a lot of credit!" Tang Hao nodded yes and said to him: "Be sure to make sure that the water does not leak!" This time, you must splash dirty water on that old thing in Moonbin. ”

Ho Shou Dao Nuo left.

The next day, He Shou interrogated Li Yue and repeatedly hinted that he would confess that Wen Bin was the mastermind behind the sabotage of the peace talks.

Who is Wen Bin? During the Xingguo period, the fierce man who guarded the Huaishui defense line was called the three generals of Zhongxing in Liang, together with Zong Peng, who guarded Xiangfan, and Liu Jie, who guarded Sichuan and Shaanxi.

In May of the 11th year of the rejuvenation of the country, the three-way Northern Expeditionary Army commanded by the three generals of Zhongxing won successive battles, and the Middle Route Army led by Zong Peng even hit Yanjia Town, which was only forty miles away from Fengzhou, the former capital of Daliang. Just when the situation on the battlefield was very good and the recovery of the Central Plains was in sight, Zhu Gaoyan, the Emperor of Liang at that time, strictly ordered the Three-Way Northern Expeditionary Army to "take advantage of the victory and reap it, and return to the dynasty!" "Single-mindedly negotiate peace with the North.

Zong Peng, the commander of the Central Route Army, wrote a letter opposing the peace, refusing to be a teacher, and his rhetoric was fierce. Zhu Gaoyan issued thirteen gold medals in a row, ordering him to return to the DPRK within a time limit. In addition, the eastern and western route armies have been withdrawn, the middle route army has become a lone army, the north has been in turmoil for a long time, thousands of miles of uninhabited, and the supply of troops is unsustainable, so Zong Peng had to reluctantly withdraw his troops.

In November, the peace agreement between the two countries was reached, and the two countries were bounded by the line of the Huaishui Qinling Mountains, and the south belonged to the Liang State and the north to the Youguo Kingdom. Liang Xiang Youyu called him a minister, and paid an annual tribute of 500,000 coins. Liang Jun's accession to the throne needs to be canonized by Emperor You, and he is the lord of the south of the Great Youjiang River.

In December, Zong Peng was imprisoned. On Chinese New Year's Eve, he was poisoned on charges of "disrespecting the king's order and despising power."

Wen Bin, who had been deprived of military power and was secretly demoted to a privy envoy, was disheartened and resigned for retirement.

Yesterday, He Shou had already said very clearly, that is, let himself bite, but what he didn't expect was to let himself frame such an old general with great prestige in the army and great achievements.

Li Yue was furious and scolded in the court! With all the vulgar words he can think of, there is no one left to greet the female relatives within three generations of He Shou.

The price was that He Shou ordered the official to beat him to fifty boards, and when he hit the twentieth time, Li Yue raised his hand and said: "Don't fight!" Don't you just want a name, I'll write it to you? ”

He Shouyin smiled: "Give him pen and ink." ”

Li Yuehua's buttocks were in pain, and he couldn't stand anymore, so he could only kneel under the hall, holding the brush handed over by the official with his right hand and writing tremblingly.

Waiting for the official to present the paper, He Shou looked at it, and his face immediately turned sunny to heavy rain.

Li Yue wrote: "Kong Qiu! Meng Ke! ”

"Bang!" He Shou slammed into shock, stood up and said viciously: "How dare you tease this official like this!" Hit me hard! Just don't beat it to death. ”

After speaking, He Shou brushed his sleeves and left.

The officials beat more and more fiercely, Li Yue gritted his teeth tightly, and he didn't even snort! It was not until he was beaten and passed out that he was carried back to his cell.
