Chapter 14: Witness Brought!
"This ...... How is this possible?! ”
"Among all the people who know about this, except for General Chu Feng himself, aren't only Li Yi and General Li Mingyi in Huaguo knowing?"
"But Li Yi and the two of them have been slashed by Xu Chuan with a sword in public, how can this matter be leaked out?"
"Xu Chuan is absolutely impossible to know!"
In addition to being shocked and in a daze, He Yong was very puzzled in his heart.
Behind him, Li Jian and the others were even more confused, staring at Xu Chuan blankly one by one.
However, soon, He Yong and the others reacted instantly.
"Maybe...... Did Xu Chuan deliberately take his death to scare us? ”
Everyone unanimously guessed in their hearts, otherwise this matter would not be justified at all.
After all, Li Yi and the others had already died, and Chu Feng was also defeated and fled, with their understanding of Chu Feng's heart, Chu Feng would definitely not do such a brainless thing.
Moreover, Chu Feng is not a person who does not keep his promises.
As long as a few of them are still alive, for Chu Feng and the Chu State, the lives of these people will definitely have another effect!
Excluding these impossibilities, there is only one left to guess.
"It must be Xu Chuan who is deceiving us, no doubt!"
"Keep calm!"
"I'd rather die than obey!"
"Remember, don't show your stuff!"
Thinking like this, several people looked at each other, and the thoughts in their hearts were even more firm.
Immediately afterwards, He Yong and the others defended loudly again.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged......!"
He Yong cried all over the sky, and while kowtowing incessantly, he loudly defended: "Your Majesty, the old minister has always been loyal to Huaguo, if Your Majesty wants the minister to die, the minister will never blink an eye!" ”
"But now, Your Majesty has wronged the old minister for treason without any evidence, and the old minister must not die because of this, this 'treason', the old minister will not accept it if he dies!"
He Yong, who was kneeling on the ground, kept crying and crying, brushing his sleeves and hiding his face and constantly wiping his tears.
And he also put on a face of loyalty and desperate defense.
Behind him, Li Jian and the others also followed one by one to defend themselves.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged......"
"The old minister has always been loyal to His Majesty, and he doesn't even have the slightest disobedience, and the old minister will never betray His Majesty and betray the Chinese country......"
"Please also ask Your Majesty to be aware of ......"
"Your Majesty has wronged you......"
They knew that the more time it was, the more time it would be for them to show their loyalty.
Absolutely no stuffing!
Absolutely cannot admit it!
It's right to kowtow hard and sell miserably, and keep avenging!
Otherwise, they would be equivalent to admitting this crime in person, and not only would they die, but even the people of their nine clans would be affected together.
The surrounding officials looked at this scene, and they couldn't accept it for a while, and their minds were full of doubts.
Xu Ze and the others, who followed Xu Chuan back, as well as Zhuge Jun, a hardcore loyal minister, also couldn't understand Xu Chuan's intentions at this time.
And the two guards were also hesitant at this time, and turned their heads to look at Xu Chuan.
"Hmph......" Xu Chuan smiled.
Treat unjustly? Hehe......
There is the strongest plug-in, will Xu Chuan wronged these villains?
Is that series of negative loyalty just decorations?
It's just that when Xu Chuan saw that all the officials were stunned, he also knew that Huaguo at this time had just settled down, and he couldn't easily kill officials for no reason for the time being.
So, Xu Chuan took a deep breath and was silent for a moment, and continued to watch He Yong and the others sell miserably.
And He Yong and others also lived up to his expectations, still like an actor, constantly performing diligently.
Suddenly, a good idea came to Xu Chuan's mind.
"Little Plum!"
For He Yong and the others, Xu Chuan completely turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear, but after shouting Xiao Lizi, he looked at Xiao Lizi and said, "Don't they want evidence?" Go outside the temple and bring me in the witnesses, and see what else they have to say!" ”
“…… Yes, Your Majesty. Xiao Lizi was stunned, and immediately understood in his heart.
He knew that Xu Chuan would definitely want these people to die today.
As for the witnesses Xu Chuan said, they must be imaginary, which is why Xu Chuan asked him to go instead of summoning them in person.
So, Xiao Lizi nodded and left the hall.
has been by Xu Chuan's side for a long time, and he can be said to be a roundworm in Xu Chuan's body, and it is not an exaggeration at all.
Otherwise, Xiao Lizi would never be so favored by Xu Chuan's side.
And at this time, when I heard Xu Chuan say that there were still people outside the hall, He Yong and others, who were acting and crying and begging for mercy, were all shocked and trembled in their hearts.
"Actually...... There are even witnesses? ”
"Could it be...... Xu Chuan is not deceiving us, but has sufficient evidence! ”
"How is this possible......"
He Yong and the others were completely dumbfounded, and their hearts were uneasy, completely like a goat walking a tightrope, and they didn't dare to be careless.
But that doesn't stop them from continuing to wail for mercy.
Half an hour passed, and Xiao Lizi went and returned.
It's just that behind him, there are two guards, who are escorting a 'Chu army' with tattered armor at this time.
And the owner of this armor seems to be a young general.
It's just that his body is very weak at this time, so he will be supported by the guards.
"Your Majesty, bring the witness!" Xiao Li Zi screamed.
At the same time, the 'young general of the Chu army' was pushed forward violently by the two guards, and he fell to the ground on the spot, making a heavy bang.
"Poof......" A mouthful of blood spurted out instantly and sprinkled on the temple.
Suddenly, He Yong and the others also stopped crying, and they, like the hundred officials of the Manchu Dynasty, turned their heads to look at the 'young general of the Chu army'.
The entire hall was immediately silent.
"This ......"
"It turned out to be Wang Shijie... General Wang ......"
"He was captured alive......"
Just glanced at this armor, He Yong's face instantly turned bad, and he almost screamed in his heart.
After thinking about it, he missed one person, Wang Shijie.
When he first went to Chuying, He Yongke was personally seen by Wang Shijie.
He Yong didn't want to be arrested at this moment, Wang Shijie was actually arrested.
His heart beat faster in an instant, almost bursting out of his chest.
"It's over...... it's over"
"I can't hide it anymore......"
He Yong's heart is like ashes.
"Calm, calm...... You must stay calm......" clenched his fists, He Yong kept cheering himself up in his heart, he knew that he had to stay calm at this time, and he must not show his stuff.
However, at this time, Xu Chuan suddenly opened his mouth and smiled: "He Yong, let me ask you, do you recognize this person?" ”
Rumble......
Although He Yong cheered himself up in his heart, he was suddenly asked by Xu Chuan, and his whole body trembled on the spot.
"No...... I don't know..."He Yong said in a trembling voice.
It's just that at this time, not only Xu Chuan discovered the frightened look on He Yong's face, but even the hundreds of officials in the court also discovered that He Yong was wrong.
"There must be a ghost in this man's heart!"
The hundreds of officials in the court thought to each other tacitly.
