Chapter 102: Where is the Evidence?
The winter sun is shining. This meant that Dorgon's plans were greatly reduced. The cold was a hurdle for the Ming army, and now this hurdle has been removed. And Wu Sangui is fully prepared. It can be said that it is easy to work. Dolgon thought about it again and again, and finally gave up attacking Ningyuan. Of course, just give it up for the time being. He was waiting for an opportunity, a chance for Wu Sangui to take a nap.
In fact, Wu Sangui was not as attentive as he imagined. Ningyuan, the junction of mountains and seas and Jinzhou, Wu Sangui is tired of it. The only reason for him to guard is that in such a troubled world, he can still temporarily live in a corner here and become a soil emperor. Therefore, except for Hu Wei, Wu Sangui did not send any more redundant generals to prepare to meet the enemy. Once people have a choice and a way out, they won't care, and Shanhaiguan is Wu Sangui's way out. Therefore, he was more concerned about the movements of Shanhaiguan, especially after the incident last night, he sent Liu Tam to Shanhaiguan early to inquire about the news of Shanhaiguan.
Liu Thong infiltrated Shanhaiguan in the early hours of the morning. finally knew the first or two situations of the city defense map, so when Lin Bai rushed to the capital with the city defense map, Liu Tam did not go back, but asked his subordinates to bring a letter to Wu Sangui, and he and several of his subordinates followed Lin Bai closely and followed into Beijing.
Lin Bai must rush to the capital before dark and hand over the city defense map to Liu Qingfeng, otherwise, Zhu Qing will be submitted to the Criminal Department for full responsibility, because three days have passed, there is no evidence to prove Zhu Qing's innocence, and Liu Qingfeng's supervision mission will come to an end. It means that in the next time, Zhu Qing's fate will be fully controlled by Wang Chengen and Zhou Yanru. Therefore, Liu Qingfeng spread the news and asked all Jinyi guards to find ways to find any clues, even if they found any clues, so that he would have an excuse to continue to monitor the case in order to ensure Zhu Qing. But the news has been spread for three days, thousands of Jinyi Guards, there is no news, these usually omnipotent and omnipotent Ming warriors, now facing their eldest brother, there is nothing they can do, because everyone knows what kind of opponent they are facing, if the evidence is insufficient, they can't rescue Qinglong at one time, then the result is conceivable.
In desperation, the White Tiger Xuanwu Suzaku decided to lobby the ministers and generals of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China in an attempt to jointly protect Zhu Qing. However, with little success, in the east, Shi Kefa, in the west, Sun Chuanting, in the south, Zheng Chenggong, in the north, there is only Tian Daren and his party, plus the three saints in the capital, there are only a few people, obviously not enough to compete with Wang Chengen and Zhou Yanru, but it is better than nothing. Moreover, these people are all party characters. In the east, Shi Kefa's wings are growing, Sun Chuanting in the west is maintaining the last honor of the Ming Dynasty, the Zheng family army in the south is great, and in the capital in the north, Tian Daren sits on the power of the lineage. Therefore, it can still make Wang Chengen and the others frown.
So after hearing about the actions of the three White Tiger Xuanwu Suzaku, Wang Chengen naturally couldn't stay idle. The ghost fire is not there, the opportunity for the iron mask is rare, in fact, since the iron mask was recruited, Wang Chengen doesn't seem to be very cold to the ghost fire, maybe it is the masculinity and wildness of the iron mask that makes Wang Chengen have some feelings, the iron mask is becoming more and more favored, comparable to the ghost fire, and even more than that, and in order to stand taller, the iron mask has learned to endure Wang Chengen's increasingly delicate and gentle hands, a man like the iron mask naturally can't stand Wang Chengen's sissy, but, sometimes, disguise can make some people.
For example, Iron Mask, in just a few days, was able to receive a task from Wang Chengen's hands that only the ghost fire level could accept, assassinate Lord Tian!
Sun Chuanting has a heavy army, even if he is not all the way with Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen will not be stupid enough to move him, because it is not good for him to break into the army and take power, or even destroy him; Zheng Chenggong is entrenched in the southeast and has been targeted by ghost fire, and I believe that within half a month, he will be able to figure out something; And Shi Kefa is not a problem for Wang Chengen. Only Lord Tian in the capital, although he tried his best to hide, was still regarded as a thorn in Wang Chengen's side, and he was afraid of the identity of his uncle in other countries, but now, it seems that this relationship can no longer save his life, because Wang Chengen decided not to buy the queen's account. Before he relied on the queen to ascend the throne, now he himself has relied on the emperor's big tree, besides, he believes in the iron mask's ability to do things, clean and neat, not only will not show the horse's feet, it can even be said that it is a snake to hit seven inches, if successful, it will cause an incomparably huge deterrent effect in the capital, it can be said that no one will dare to obey orders again. Wang Chengen, the great eunuch who has always been forbearing, under the influence of power, gradually appeared the shadow of Wei Zhongxian on his body, but he was facing Chongzhen.
The assassination of Lord Tian is the first time Wang Chengen has crossed the line! So he didn't sleep well for a few days, often summoned Iron Mask, kept instructing, kept thinking about every detail, and then made tens of thousands of assumptions. Knowing that the night before the operation, Wang Chengen still didn't let go. He also took out a knife when he watched Iron Mask go out, once this matter was exposed, it was impossible for him to survive, because the person he was going to kill was the queen's brother, which could not be spared lightly.
Under Wang Chengen's instructions, the iron mask lurked on the way to the palace, tonight, Lord Tian will follow as a representative into the palace to face the saint, and present the joint names of several generals to Chongzhen, Ouchi stipulates that except for Lord Tian and several Tian Mansion guards, no one else can enter the palace, including the White Tiger Xuanwu Suzaku, because tonight is also the day when Zhu Qing is escorted to the Criminal Department, the purpose is to avoid suspicion and beware of robbery. So, this is the last chance, and the best chance.
Lin Bai entered Beijing before dark, and he was also injured. This matter was said by Liu Tam. Liu Tam caught up with Lin Bai in the original Yuanjia iron shop, Lin Bai faced Liu Thong alone with seven people, fought for an afternoon, Liu Tam first dragged Lin Bai down in the wheel battle, and finally he personally went into battle and knocked Lin Bai down several times. Fortunately, Lin Bai, as the first hussar in the mountains and seas, still has two brushes, a silver halberd to come back to life, turn the tide, and fight with Liu Tam for three hours, stop and stop, and finally defeat Liu Tamp. Liu Tam escaped with a mask, with Lin Bai's temper, if it was a normal day, he would definitely chase after him, but today, he was free and important, and even saw that it was dark, he regretted it very much in his heart, he should not have dealt with the enemy, and delayed the time to send the map.
When he arrived in the capital, Lord Tian was already on his way to the palace to face the saint. Lin Bai wants to find Liu Qingfeng, Liu Qingfeng is in the prison at this time with Zhang Fa to escort Zhu Qing to the main hall, tonight is a moment of handover, it is the time to decide Zhu Qing's life and death. No one dares to be careless. Therefore, Liu Qingfeng entered the palace early, and Lin Bai naturally pounced. Helplessly, he sneaked into the palace and risked being killed as an assassin with the Jinzhou City Defense Map into the palace.
Several forces suddenly gathered in the palace of Miyagi. Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, his heart was conflicted, according to the regulations, in the absence of any evidence to prove Zhu Qing's innocence, he had to hand over Zhu Qing to the Criminal Department to deal with it with full authority. This is a decree, and as the Son of Heaven, he cannot bend the law. However, he also knew how much of a loss the Blue Dragon would be for him, just like losing the Killing Wind. has put him in his current predicament. He was waiting for Lord Tian to arrive, because he had already received the news that someone had jointly vouched for Zhu Qing. It's a step, an excuse.
"Why are you so sullen? It's me Qinglong who wants to kill the head, and there are two immortal adults who want to kill the head. Ha ha. Zhu Qing walked between Liu Qingfeng and Zhang Fa, smiling heartily. Death seemed to him to have seen through it a long time ago. Even though there is still such a national hatred and family hatred, and there are still a few children and daughters, but the matter has come to an end. He was suddenly relieved. It's not that he chooses to be indifferent, it's that he doesn't seem to feel like he's just dead!
"Green Dragon! You can still laugh, you are like this, how can I explain to your master? Liu Qingfeng sighed.
"Yes, Brother Zhu, you know that once you transfer to the Criminal Department, there is nothing I can do." Zhang Fa is a big official, his heart is still so fragile. Zhu Qing suddenly regretted that he didn't leave him at the beginning, if he was by his side, although he might not be prosperous and rich, but the true character of a man could still be practiced a little.
"Lord Yanagi. My master is like that, I don't know how to explain to myself, what do you have to explain to him? If one day he really wakes up and I'm gone, I'll tell him that Zhu Qing is not filial and can't take care of his old man. Zhu Qing smiled and said to Liu Qingfeng, Liu Qingfeng did not respond, his heart ached, and he turned to the side, it was he who found Zhu Qing, it was he who taught Zhu Qing the first dart, although he now takes Killing Wind as his teacher, but there has always been a trace of master-apprentice relationship between the two.
Seeing that Liu Qingfeng didn't answer, Zhu Qing turned to Zhang Fa, "I don't know if I should call you brother or adult." However, I haven't heard that sentence Brother Zhu just now for a long time. Brother, I don't blame you, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. Don't be embarrassed then, there are still two elders at home, don't let them worry. Zhu Qing laughed and talked with the two of them as he walked. It wasn't until he crossed the path of the Imperial Garden and passed the Chuxiu Palace that Zhu Qing stopped. Liu Qingfeng knew what Zhu Qing meant. He patted Zhu Qing on the shoulder, "Don't look at it, she has already moved into the harem." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Qing closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. The original reason why he entered Beijing and became a Jinyi guard was for this woman, Chen Yuanyuan, how many times, this woman who said she loved him and refused to go with him said that she would wait for him, but now she can't wait? Did you even compromise with reality?
"Hahaha!" Zhu Qing suddenly burst out laughing, this laugh was worrying and frightening.
laughed, and passed by Chuxiu Palace, which once had almost all his dreams. However, when Zhu Qing walked over, a window in Chuxiu Palace opened gently, and a beautiful but somewhat emaciated face loomed, shining with dazzling crystal light under the reflection of the lantern, Chen Yuanyuan burst into tears, she was still in Chuxiu Palace, but she couldn't meet Zhu Qing, it was she who told Liu Qingfeng to let Liu Qingfeng lie, because she hoped that he would die, and hoped that he could calm down, only by being calm could he face everything that happened in the next punishment department, even if there was little hope, it was better than no hope.
Liu Qingfeng looked back, the window was slightly open, and he sighed. Take Zhu Qing through the last corridor. It's a dark and dimly lit promenade, a creepy promenade. Zhu Qing's laughter suddenly stopped!
