Chapter 112 The Golden Knife of Death IV

Chang'an Bindu Marquis Mansion, Murong Ba looked at the secret letter in his hand with a surprised face, this secret letter was sent by Murong Zang, the king of Changli Anle, Murong Ba was surprised not that his long-term uncontacted prince and nephew suddenly had a correspondence with him, but the content of the letter made Murong Ba dare not believe it at all, Murong Zang said in the secret letter that the royal brother Murong Ling suddenly ran to Changli to join him, and also said that this was the intention of his father Murong Ba, to take advantage of the chaos of Qin Yan's war to gather the old department to conspire together. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Murong Zang also said in the letter that now Murong Ling is full of ambition and activities are quite frequent, he is worried that sooner or later there will be an incident in the east window, he has no intention of opposing the imperial brother Murong Wei, he just wants his wife to be his king of peace and happiness, but because of Uncle Wang's face, and considering the pain of Brother Wang's thousands of miles away, he can't bear to turn him away, but if Brother Wang is stubborn again, he can't continue to protect him, and I hope that Uncle Wang will not dissuade Brother Wang, and don't let Brother Wang find another place, Yunyun.

Fu Jiang took the document presented by Yun Meng, watched it again and again, his face became more and more ugly, and Mao Shun on the side didn't dare to say anything when he saw His Majesty suddenly turn from joy to anger, just quietly stood with his hands down. "The prime minister reported to me, saying that Murong Ling defected and returned to Yan Kingdom, and asked me to be careful to beware of Murong Ba, Murong Ba already has the heart of disobedience, and it is necessary to make a decision as soon as possible, but Murong Ba is very respectful to me, and he is a rare genius, although his son defected, it does not mean that Murong Ba also harbors evil intentions. If I get rid of him like this, if I kill a good person by mistake, won't I have to regret it? However, the prime minister's intention seemed to conclude that Murong Ba did not really defect to Daqin, and in connection with the various attitudes of the prime minister towards him before, it seemed that the prime minister had already seen through Murong Ba, it was not that the prime minister was jealous of Murong Ba's kindness, and he deliberately rejected him because he held a grudge, but this was not like what the prime minister had always done. Oops, it's all such a mess. Fu Jiang's mind was full of cranky thoughts. In the end, Fu Jiang decided to summon Murong Ba to have a try, so he ordered Mao Shun to go and pass the edict to the Marquis of Bin to enter the palace immediately. After Mao Shun received the order, he left the Xuanshu Hall and went out of the palace to edict Murong Ba, and Fu Jiang felt that his judgment would be biased. So Li Wei, Lu Luoyang and others were urgently summoned into the palace, and Fu Jiang told Li Wei and Lu Luoyang what had happened, hoping that the two of them could judge whether Murong Ba was loyal or not. But after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Murong Ba to see him, nor did he see Mao Shun come back to restore his life, Fu Jiang felt that something was wrong, so he was about to send someone to look for him again, but he saw Mao Shun running in in a panic. Fu Jiang saw that Mao Shun's expression was wrong, and he looked behind him again, but he didn't see Murong Ba's shadow.

"Mao Shun panicked, what happened?" Fu Jiang and the others were not in a hurry, and Mao Shunyu opened his mouth to ask.

Mao Shun hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the old slave was ordered to go to the Marquis of Bindu Mansion to invite the Marquis of Murong into the palace, and the old slave arrived at the Marquis of Bindu Mansion and explained his intention to the guards outside the Hou Mansion. The subordinate asked the old slave to wait, and he went in to ask his marquis to come out to receive the order. So the old slave waited outside the gate of the house, but after waiting for a long time, no one came out. The old slave shouted into the courtyard and no one answered, the old slave was in a hurry and decided to go into the mansion to find it, who knew that after entering the Hou Mansion, he found that the Hou Mansion was empty, and the old slave searched the front yard and the back yard, not to mention the Murong Hou Ye, even if he didn't even see a figure, the old slave did not dare to slack off in this situation, so he immediately rushed back to the palace and reported to His Majesty. ”

"What did you say, Murong Ba is gone?" Fu Jiang suddenly stood up from the throne and asked,

Mao Shun knelt down with a "plop", kowtowed and replied: "What the slave said is true, the Hou Mansion has become an empty courtyard, and Murong Ba, the Marquis of Bindu, does not know where to go." ”

"Oops" Fu Jiang shouted, and sat down on the throne. Fu Jiang didn't expect Murong Ba to disappear under his nose.

Li Wei bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the prime minister really said it, this Murong Ba must have received some rumors, and absconded in fear before His Majesty took action." ”

"The old minister also thinks so, he really knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart, His Majesty treats Murong Ba as a guest, but he hides his unsubservient heart, it is really an unforgivable sin." Lu Luoyang also arched his hand and said.

Li Wei said again: "It is estimated that Murong Ba has just received the news, and he should not be able to go too far, Your Majesty, please give an order quickly, ask Murong Ba the direction of escape, and order someone to chase along the road, maybe he can catch up." ”

As soon as Fu Jiang was reminded by Li Wei's words, he reacted immediately and said, "Yes, quickly order someone to arrest Murong Ba and bring him back to the palace, and I will interrogate him personally." ”

Besides, Murong Ba was in a big mess under his cranky thoughts, thinking to himself, "Chang'an must not stay any longer, if he is arrested by Fu Jiang and gets the news, and Yun Meng adds fuel to the fire, I, Murong Ba, will definitely die, how can my so-called plan be realized." Thinking of this, Murong Ba only took two cronies with him, and escaped from Chang'an overnight, Murong Ba planned to return to Changli, Liaodong to join Murong Ling, and then decide where to go, so he went all the way east to escape to Luoyang first, and then to Liaodong north. He didn't expect that Fu Jiang and he received the news almost at the same time this time, and Fu Jiang also quickly found out that Murong Ba had fled, but Murong Ba didn't run far, but was intercepted in Lantian by the forbidden cavalry chasing from behind, Murong Ba thought that he would die, and he didn't resist, so he was captured by the forbidden army and escorted back to Chang'an.

When the news came back to the palace, Fu Jiang decided to try Murong Ba in person, so he sat in the middle of the Xuanshu Palace, and ordered Li Wei and Lu Luoyang to judge.

After a while, Murong Ba was brought in, and at this time, he saw Murong Ba's hair scattered, his robe was messy, his arms were tied behind him, and he was escorted into the hall by two forbidden soldiers in despair. Seeing Murong Ba's scene, Fu Jiang felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, neither ruthless nor pitiful, "Murong Ba, you raise your head." Fu Jiang said coldly, Murong Ba slowly raised his head, the confidence and perseverance in his eyes were all gone, and now he only had a sluggish and desperate look.

"Say, "Why are you in trouble? Am you still not satisfied with my kindness to you? I trust you so much, but in the end, you deceive me one after another. Murong Ba, what else do you have to say, if there is no I, you will be punished for the crime of defection according to the law. Fu Jiang said with disappointment in his eyes.

But seeing two lines of hot tears flowing from Murong Ba's eyes, he knelt on his knees with a "plop" sound, and then opened his chapped lips and said, "Your Majesty, although the minister is guilty, he is really helpless!" (To be continued.) )
