Chapter 189: A Shocking Conspiracy
Chapter 189: A Shocking Conspiracy
Sriwijaya is now Sumatra, located on the southern side of the Strait of Malacca, while the countries of Dandan, Panpan and Langya are located on the Malay Peninsula on the northern shore of the Strait of Malacca, all on both sides of Malacca. Especially Dandanguo, which is now Singapore, is the most important transportation artery at the west end of the Strait of Malacca, as long as it is defended here, then Datang can be in a situation where it can be attacked and retreated, as long as it is defended here, even if the Western world counterattacks, it is not afraid.
"What a big appetite." The deputy envoy gritted his teeth.
"No way, if you have good teeth, your appetite will naturally be a little bigger." Xue Rengui snorted back mercilessly: "There is no doubt that Datang's teeth are definitely the best in the world, and he can swallow anything, even if it is the whole world." β
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to the deputy envoy, but refocused his gaze on Fan Xueyi, who was blind: "But you don't have to worry, as long as you can prove that your information is right, I can be the master and plead with His Highness to spare you a way to live, or let you avoid being thrown into a slave camp or a workshop division, so that you can live a normal life." β
Fan Xueyi's eyes lit up: "What about my family?" My brothers and uncles, can you spare them? β
"Don't be too greedy, your intelligence can only save your own life at most." Xue Rengui's expression was solemn, and the invisible murderous aura suddenly spread, frightening Fan Xueyi's face and almost wanting to fall.
Secretly shook his head in his heart, after all, she was a little girl who was not deeply involved in the world, and slowly withdrew her murderous aura, Xue Rengui said coldly: "Although your uncles and brothers did not personally invade the Tang Dynasty, they all have a positive attitude towards this war, and I will not let them go on this basis alone." What's more, I also have some understanding of the situation in Linyi City in the past few days, in the face of the crisis, your brothers and uncles are pretending to be sick one by one, pretending to be dead, and self-harming...... In the end, he actually put the responsibility on you, a weak woman, and did not take any responsibility, but roasted you on the fire, regardless of a little family affection, why should you intercede for such relatives? β
"But......" Fan Xueyi stopped talking.
Xue Rengui was impatient, and shouted categorically: "It's nothing, do you want to say it or not?" If you don't say it again, even you and I won't let it go, and when the time comes, you will either die of exhaustion in the slave camp, or you will be locked up in the Church Division, allowing different men to ride on your body and gallop around, venting your desires, and life is better than death......"
"I said, I said it." Fan Xueyi's little face turned pale with fright, and she was almost about to cry, on the one hand, because she was frightened by Xue Rengui's interruption from drinking, and on the other hand, it was what Xue Rengui said in the second half - whether it was exhausting to death in a slave camp or being locked up in the Workshop Division, it was not what Fan Xueyi wanted......
Xue Rengui nodded with satisfaction: "Then you can tell me well, where did you find their abnormality?" β
"Just the other day when I just inherited the throne." Speaking of this, Fan Xueyi looked uncomfortable and awkward, it seemed that she was put on the throne, and she was also very angry in her heart, but when she thought that she was about to be pardoned, and those who forced her to ascend to the throne were going to be reduced to slaves, I don't know what was going on, Fan Xueyi actually had a sense of joy in her heart - although she also knew that it was wrong to think so, there was always a sense of guilt, but as long as she thought of the ugly faces of those bastards, Fan Xueyi's heart was very happy.
Putting aside the chaotic thoughts, Fan Xueyi continued: "Although I don't ask about the government on weekdays, I also know that there are many Han officials in the court, but when I went to the court yesterday, I found that only a few Han officials went to the court to congratulate, and none of the rest came.
Then I asked casually, and the answer I got turned out to be that all these people were sick at home, which was nothing originally, but now the situation is so chaotic, there are many people who are sick at home, and even those who have escaped from the Sangha to make up for it, but this is undoubtedly abnormal for Han officials.
Because according to normal logic, you are all Han Chinese, even if both sides are now their own masters, when facing them, you should be open-minded, at least not to reduce them to slavery.
But they were too frightened to go to courtβit was strange, so I ordered someone to check the situation......"
"Wait a while, ......" Hearing this, Xue Rengui interrupted Fan Xueyi's words and asked a little strangely, "There is something wrong with what you said." You are the new monarch who succeeded to the throne, and you did not establish your own power before, and you are destined to be the king of the fallen country...... The situation is already so clear, how can anyone be loyal to you at this time? How blind must these people be? β
"What's so strange about that? I, the Fan family, have been established for decades, and I have been operating in Linyi for so many years, how can I not have a little loyalty? And how can you not have a little hole card? Fan Xueyi said as a matter of course: "Among these hole cards, there is an intelligence team, which can only be mastered by kings, that is to say, whoever is the king, they will be loyal to whom." Now that I am king, they will naturally be loyal to me, even if I am not a king for a few days, they will still be loyal to me, there is no doubt about that. β
"I see, that's understandable, you go on." Xue Rengui thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he motioned for Fan Xueyi to continue.
"After careful investigation, my men found that the mansions of these people were already empty......
"That's kind of interesting, these people seem to be very afraid of us, but we don't have any holiday with them, right, what are they afraid of us?"
"That's right, I thought so too, so I ordered them to continue to check in detail, especially who they had contact with before they left...... Fan Xueyi showed a trace of surprise on her face: "I don't know if I don't check this, I was shocked when I checked it, I didn't expect that for so many years, these Han officials have run Lin Yi to this point, and they have buried such a shocking conspiracy, wanting to destroy the Tang Army and the Singha Buluo together." β
"Oh? What kind of destruction method? Xue Rengui asked more curiously, this is what Fan Xueyi didn't tell him before, it seems that this girl also has something to hide.
"After a strict inspection of the city, we found that there was a huge amount of gunpowder and oil in the city."
Xue Rengui categorically vetoed: "This is impossible, gunpowder is my Tang secret recipe, and outsiders don't know about it." Fire oil is even more nonsense, there are only a few known production areas of fire oil in the whole world, all of which are controlled by the imperial court, how did they get fire oil? β
