Chapter 270: Strangling the Cradle
During the period when Wei Hong and Li Dejian were cultivating their relationship in the capital, Cheng Chumo and they also followed Wei Zheng to Fengzhou. Li Yi was not in Fenzhou, and after he had the idea of rebellion, he deceived the trust of the assassin of Fenzhou and took the opportunity to take over Fenzhou. At this time, Li Yigang led the soldiers and horses to Fengzhou, ready to wait for the opportunity to move. Wei Zheng also entered Fengzhou with a large team of soldiers and horses, and directly confused Li Yi.
The history of the Fenzhou thorn is also a little confused. Originally, only Li Yi entered Fenzhou, and the history of the Fenzhou Assassin could still be understood, but this time, even Wei Zheng entered Fenzhou with soldiers and horses thousands of miles away, which had to make the Assassin History of Fenzhou suspicious. It stands to reason that soldiers and horses from other places are not allowed to enter other state cities without special instructions, otherwise they are very suspected of rebellion. And Wei Zhenggui is the prime minister, and he takes Cheng Chumo and others, even if he rebels, he can't rebel at the same time, right? Since Wei Zheng was not a rebellion, what was the intention of leading the soldiers and horses to come to Fengzhou suddenly? Some of the two monks in the history of the Fenzhou Thorn couldn't figure it out.
After Wei Zheng led his troops to enter Fenzhou, Yu Dang said that he seized Li Yi's military power and controlled all the men and horses under Li Yi. As a result, after some searching, it was found that Li Yi's men and horses were all well stocked with food and grass, fully armed, and ready for the war! Such evidence is conclusive, so that Li Yi is speechless. Wei Zheng immediately prepared to write a letter and send a letter to Comrade Li, who was far away in the capital, to report that Li Yi's rebellion was not groundless. Subsequently, Wei Zheng directly put Li Yi in prison and sent soldiers and horses to guard him strictly.
Later, when he continued to search for criminal evidence, Wei Zheng found Li Yi's family hiding in the soldiers and horses, so it can be seen that Li Yi did not plan to leave again when he came to Fengzhou. Wei Zheng immediately made a decision and interrogated Li Yi's family, especially taking care of Meng's family. At first, Meng had a hard mouth, and when the punishment was added, within two rounds, Meng vomited completely. How to be deceived by the Li family, how to bewitch Li Yi to rebel and so on.
So far, Li Yi's rebellion has been broken in the world! Li Yi should have been escorted back to Beijing immediately, but Wei Zheng was not in a hurry, but ordered troops to be sent around to search for the Li family, who was misleading the public. After finding the Li family, he was directly beheaded to show the public. Later, when Wei Zheng escorted Li Yi back to Beijing, he stood in the prisoner car, and Li Yi, who looked decadent, asked Wei Zheng: "How does the saint know that I want to rebel?" ”
Wei Zheng did not answer. Li Yi asked again: "After I return to Beijing this time, I will definitely be wiped out, can the elder let me die happily?" I have been working hard since I ascended the throne, and I have only planned to rebel in the near future. How did the Holy One find out? And I entered Fengzhou with my front foot, and the old man with the back foot led the soldiers and horses? ”
Wei Zheng glanced at Li Yi and scolded coldly: "When you have such a bad heart, you are destined to have this day!" Although the saint is far away in the capital, the affairs of the Tang Dynasty are all in the ears of the saint. How dare you be arrogant and think that you can deceive the Holy One? ”
Li Yi sighed deeply, squinted his eyes and said, "There is a person in the capital city, surnamed Wei Minghong, who has great talents. Since following the saint, he first leveled the rat infestation in Liuzhou, and became famous in the battle of Horsehair Mountain, and offered a plan to make Hui surrender to the feet of the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention the rebellion of Yan Siyi, he was also defeated by this person. If my guess is right, I am said to be defeated today, I am afraid that this person will also contribute to it, right? ”
Wei Zheng shouted: "People who are about to die, why do you have so much nonsense?!" Your death is doomed! I can't blame others! ”
Hearing this, Li Yi laughed helplessly: "If the elder doesn't say anything, he will acquiesce!" Hehe, I have heard that Wei Hong is so powerful, and I have always had the heart to make friends. I never thought that the last way to get to know Wei Hong was to part with life and death! That's it, Datang can get this person, it is the luck of Datang, the sorrow of my generation! Speaking of this, Li Yi paused, and said with a gloomy face: "Although I am defeated, I can get rid of Wei Hong, and it can be regarded as pulling out the sharp teeth of Li Shimin, a tiger!" Die without regrets! ”
Wei Zheng, who had never been too lazy to deal with Li Yi, heard this, his eyes were sharp, and he shouted at Li Yi: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Li Yi closed his eyes and was silent, no matter how Wei Zheng asked, Li Yi was silent. Wei Zheng felt that there was something strange in Li Yi's words, and when the people were resting, Wei Zheng came to Meng Shi and asked Li Yi if he knew any other characters? Meng Shi didn't know that when the torture was added and the tortured dead came back, Meng revealed that Li Yi had sent a killer into Beijing to assassinate the military department Shangshu. The killer is a woman, and she acts quite secretively, even Meng Shi has never seen her with her own eyes, but by chance, one night, I heard a conversation between Li Yi and the female killer outside the window. Faintly, Meng Shi seemed to hear that the female killer's name was 'Yijian Donglai'.
After listening to Meng's confession, Wei Zheng scolded: "With the cautious style of Li Yi and that female killer, you rough woman is hiding outside the window, how can they not find out?" I still dare to hide it, I'm afraid that the criminal law hasn't been used enough! After speaking, he directly ordered someone to break Meng's two legs.
The dying Meng couldn't stand the pain of this criminal law, and in the end he could only give a full explanation: "The reason why that woman is called Yijian Donglai is because her swordsmanship is very superb and she comes from the east. Subsequently, Meng Shi told the truth all the information about the appearance and accent of Yijian Donglai.
Wei Zheng asked again: "What is the origin of this sword coming from the east?" ”
Meng said that he didn't know, and Wei Zheng then used the punishment, no matter how severe the criminal law was used this time, Meng Shi was full of ignorance. Helpless, Wei Zheng could only let Meng go. Sending someone to drag away the Meng family, who no longer knew whether he was alive or dead, Wei Zheng lowered his head and thought about it, and after a while, Wei Zheng's eyes lit up. Before leaving Beijing, I heard that the officers and soldiers defending the city caught a woman at night, and the woman was very good at martial arts, and was besieged by more than 100 soldiers, and she could kill ten people! Later, when the boss who was imprisoned in the criminal department was tortured, the woman had an accent in the southeast. Thinking of this, Wei Zheng could already be sure that the woman was a sword from the east!
Thinking about it, Wei Zheng was stunned at first, sweating all over his body, and a thought appeared in Wei Zheng's mind. Li Yi sent a sword to the east to assassinate the military department Shangshu, and was accidentally arrested, but he was not executed. Presumably, this sword is not small, although he is in prison, he is not helpless! Just now Li Yi said, 'Although I am defeated, I can get rid of Wei Hong. Doesn't it mean that after this Jian Donglai failed to assassinate the military department, he would have to do something to Wei Hong?
"Not good! Wei Hong is in trouble! Wei Zheng slapped his thigh violently, and immediately ordered the army to hurry to the capital as soon as possible at all costs. Wei Hong plays a vital role in both Comrade Lao Li and Datang, and it can be said that Wei Hong's ability is the key to the rise and fall of Datang, so Wei Hong must not have the slightest mistake, otherwise the national fortune will be worried!
