Chapter 146: "Business"
Xiao Xuanrui's face was almost white. He gritted his teeth secretly, stood aside, and never spoke to refute again. For a while, no one in the hall spoke again. Yun Luan's clear eyes slowly looked at the high king. "Your Majesty, this person is Zhou Cheng, the deputy general of the Yun family's army, and he is the witness mentioned by the courtier...... He is also the only surviving Yun family soldier at present, except for my second brother. In the Black Wind Canyon, no one must know better than him...... "The tragic deaths of my father's eldest brother and the Yun family army also have his handiwork. From the very beginning, he betrayed my father and conspired with others to plot against him. The Wing King used His Majesty's secret order to force my father and the Yun family army into the canyon. And Zhou Cheng took the opportunity to sneak attack his father, and together with the troops who had been ambushed in the canyon, they killed the Yun family army together. ”
"The tragic death of my father's eldest brother and the Yun family army was not caused by Liang Guo at all...... There are people behind the scenes, manipulating all this, disguised as soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, and creating these illusions. In order to escape, it is just the responsibility of killing Nanchu Erlang......" As soon as Yun Luan's words came out, the Jinluan Palace was suddenly in an uproar. In fact, many ministers don't know much about this, so even the left prime minister Song Hui and the right prime minister Zhao Chong are shocked. The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs couldn't help but start whispering. "What's going on? General Zhenguo was not forced to death by Liang Guo, but was killed by our own people in Nanchu? ”
"Could it be the Wing King, who ambushed the soldiers in the canyon in advance, in order to kill the general of Zhenguo?"
"What a big hatred is this, what a big grudge, just for a little personal grudge, you have to kill 90,000 Yun family soldiers? That's crazy, isn't it? ”
"How do I think there's something else going on here?"
"From the very beginning, I felt that King Rui's reaction was wrong, could this matter have anything to do with him?"
"Shhh
Whoever does not know and offends no one in the court can offend this wise king. King Rui has always been a man who will repay him, and those who follow others will prosper and those who rebel against others will die, and this method is even more ruthless than His Majesty. Xiao Xuanrui straightened his back, his eyes stared at Yun Luan with relish, Yun Luan was neither humble nor arrogant, and did not weaken half of his momentum. She ignored Xiao Xuanrui's cold gaze and only turned her head to look at Zhou Cheng. "Zhou Cheng, as long as you still have a little conscience, tell everything you know...... also gave his father and Yun Jiajun justice. ”
Zhou Cheng was extremely ashamed, he whimpered and cried in a low voice with red eyes. He raised his hand to cover his face, tears rippling...... "It's my fault, it's me who shouldn't have lost my mind and made a heinous mistake for the sake of so-called power." I think I followed the general when I was a teenager, and followed him to the north and south, fought on the battlefield, and defended the country. In the past 20 years, we have not been brothers, but we are better than brothers. ”
"The general treats me with sincerity, but I am not as good as a pig and a dog, and I repay virtue with resentment, and for the sake of the so-called desire and ambition, I have made such a big mistake that is the common anger of these people and gods...... It was only after I died once that I came to my senses...... What power, what ambition, what vanity, all this is just a passing moment...... It's all bullshit. ”
He cried breathlessly, and his words caused many generals in the palace to have red eyes, choked and cried. These generals all admired Yun Fuqing, and all of them were saddened by Yun Fuqing's death. The fall of a generation of generals in such a tragic way is the loss of their southern reserve, and it is also the pain in the hearts of the people. Zhou Cheng raised his sleeves, wiped the tears on his face, and raised his hand to point at the Wing King with a desperate decision, without any hesitation. "As early as a month ago, the Winged King sent someone to contact me, intentionally or unintentionally, and openly and secretly used his power and wealth to persuade me to be used by him. He said that if I can help him get rid of the general, in the future, he will be able to give me a high rank and honor, so that my achievements will never be lower than that of the general. ”
"At first I was very resistant and very wary...... However, this month he gave me countless treasures, and even overstepped his authority to give my brother a not low official position. He bought everyone in my family...... My family, including me, has never been tempted by this kind of temptation, and we have all fallen and become puppets of lust and ambition......" "The Liang State invaded and rebelled, and the general led us to the border...... The Wing King successfully captured Liu Fan, Han Qi, and me step by step. The general was forced into the canyon by secret order, but they did not know that before entering the canyon, they had been drugged and lost their internal strength. ”
When several generals heard this, they couldn't help but kneel on their knees anymore, and cried bitterly: "General Zhenguo, you were really killed by this beggar villain." ”
"The Wing King is so vicious, just because of a little grudge with the General's Mansion, he made this kind of crazy revenge."
"Your Majesty, you must not spare the Wing King easily. Otherwise, how can we comfort the spirit of the general, and how can we calm the heroic soul of the 90,000 Yun family army who died tragically. ”
The emperor clenched his fists, and his eyes flashed. He asked Zhou Cheng to continue. Zhou Cheng trembled his voice and continued to cry bitterly: "When you enter the canyon, the Wing King will let people seal the entrance...... There are more than 100,000 ambush soldiers in the canyon, and tens of thousands of archers are waiting on the top of the cliff...... After they entered the canyon, the archers sprinkled poison powder into the canyon, and many Yun soldiers were poisoned and died on the spot. Almost half of the Yun family army died from this poisonous powder ......" "The rest of the Yun family army resisted to the death, but they couldn't resist the rain of arrows that fell from the top of the cliff and were as dense as raindrops...... The arrows were all poisonous. When there is not much left of the Yun family's army, I will lead the ambush soldiers in the canyon and kill the Yun family's army with strong crossbow bows. ”
"We fought for three hours before sending all the Yun family troops to hell. The mountain of corpses is piled up, full of blood, the general knelt in front of the corpse mountain, lifted his sword and was forced to commit suicide and died......" Zhou Cheng closed his eyes, and the scene of the general smiling at him before he died flashed in his mind. His heart ached, he didn't feel pain before, but now he suddenly realized that the pain had increased a hundredfold and a thousand times. He couldn't hold it anymore, and bright blood overflowed from his mouth, and he collapsed on the ground, unable to get up again. He shook his hands and took out letters from his arms: "These letters are all evidence of the collusion between the Winged King and me. What I just said, there is absolutely no half of a lie, if I say half a lie, I will fall into the eighteenth layer of hell forever, and I will not be able to live beyond the ...... of life." It was shocking and shocked the eyes of all the people present. Xiao Tingyan walked up to Zhou Cheng and took the blood-stained letters...... He asked Gonggong Zhou to present it to the emperor. The emperor took the letters and looked at them one by one. These handwritings are all the Winged King's...... Annoyed, he jerked to his feet and hurried to the Winged King.
