Chapter 337: Feng Deyi's Crisis (1)
Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, is the residence of Feng Deyi.
In the bedroom, Feng Deyi was lying on the couch, his hair and beard were gray and messy, and his face was as pale as a piece of white paper, without a trace of blood. His eye sockets are deep, his cheekbones are high and bulging, his eyes have lost their former brilliance, and all that remains is a faint reluctance and concern. This is the tenth day that Feng Deyi has been lying on the couch, and Feng Deyi knows in his heart that his end is coming, his life is coming to an end, and he is leaving this world.
In the palace, Concubine Yang took the young Shu King Li Ke to visit Feng Deyi. Feng Deyi trembled and tried his best to stay to salute Concubine Yang and the King of Shu, but was stopped by Concubine Yang. Feng Deyi took the hand of Li Ke, the king of Shu, and said with tears: "Your Highness, the old minister is old, and he can no longer assist His Highness, and I will not see the day when His Highness ascends to the throne." Lao Chen hopes that His Royal Highness can always trust Cen Wenwen, Cen Wenwen is a peerless talent, and his wisdom is superb, and Lao Chen believes that as long as His Highness always trusts him, he will be able to support His Highness to ascend to the throne. ”
Li Ke, the king of Shu, comforted Feng Deyi and said: "Feng Xiang, you can recuperate with peace of mind." I will definitely follow the instructions of the prime minister, and regard Lord Cen Wencen as my right-hand man, and I will absolutely trust him. ”
Feng Deyi seemed to have completed a very important thing, his face was relaxed, and he muttered to himself: "Your Highness, this is good, this is good." As long as His Highness fully trusts the Cen text, reuse the Cen text. The old minister is relieved, and he is completely relieved. With the help of texts, His Highness will be able to ascend to the throne smoothly. In this way, the lifelong pursuit of the old minister can be realized, and only then can he repay His Majesty Emperor Yang for his kindness to the old minister. Even if the old minister goes to Jiuquan to see His Majesty Emperor Yang, he can rest assured. ”
Soon, Concubine Yang took Li Ke, the king of Shu, to leave Feng Deyi's mansion and return to the palace.
Feng Deyi lay on the couch, his face worried. After pondering for a long time, Feng Deyi asked the housekeeper to summon Xie Shufang, the former left and right Jin Wuwei generals. Xie Shufang since the change of Xuanwu Gate. After being secretly surrendered by the Tang Emperor Li Shimin and transferred out of the Zuojin Wuwei army, he has been holding the only secret armed force of the Southern Shi clan for the Southern Shi Clan-Ying Wei.
The shadow guards are all selected from the southern warrior clan to be loyal to the southern scholar clan and have high martial arts, after rigorous selection and cruel training, through various loyalty tests, before recruiting and organizing. They are mainly responsible for dangerous tasks such as intelligence and assassination for the southern scholars, and do all kinds of secret things for the southern scholars.
Soon Xie Shufang walked into Feng Deyi's bedroom and walked to Feng Deyi's couch. Feng Deyi said to Xie Shufang in a low voice: "My limit is about to arrive, you take the shadow guard to kill someone for me......"
Feng Deyi gasped. continued to say with difficulty: "That person's name is Zhang Ping, and he is a secret son I buried next to Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, and now he should be exposed." He knows too many things, kill him, remember to kill him. Only by killing him will my and our southern warriors not be in danger. ”
Uncle Xie said respectfully: "Please rest assured, my lordship, I will arrange it." ”
With that, Uncle Xie bowed and left Feng Deyi's bedroom.
Feng Deyi was lying alone on the couch. muttered to himself: "Zhang Ping knows my relationship with Hailing King Yuanji, since the Xuanwumen Change, he has been targeted by the Tang Emperor, and has been secretly monitored by the Tang Emperor. He could feel it too. But I reassured him that it was okay. He can't escape, the world is so big, his every move is under the supervision of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, where can he escape? So he only died. Only he died. It won't involve me, it will involve the southern scholars behind me. ”
Late at night, the residence of Zhang Ping, the personal guard of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin. Suddenly, a group of masked people appeared, and they walked into Zhang Ping's bedroom with ease, and without saying a word to Zhang Ping's couch, they slashed hard. After that, they lifted the quilt and found that the bed was empty, and they searched several nearby rooms, but found no trace of Zhang Ping, and finally, they left Zhang Ping's residence with helplessness.
In Feng Deyi's bedroom, Uncle Xie reported to Feng Deyi: "The mission has failed, and Zhang Ping is missing." ”
Feng Deyi used all his strength and said, "Maybe this is fate." The way of heaven is magnificent, negligent but not leaky. I've lived in the shadows for most of my life, and eventually everything will be exposed to the sun. ”
Saying that, Feng Deyi took his son Feng Yandao's hand and said weakly: "Do what I arranged in advance......"
After that, Feng Deyi died of anger.
The news of Feng Deyi's death reached the Taiji Palace. Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty ordered: "Posthumously seal Feng Deyi as the first product of the Tang Dynasty, knight the Duke of Mi Guo, and strike the dynasty for three days to show mourning." ”
Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty has a lot of trust in Feng Deyi, and he has always believed that when King Xi was the most powerful, when he was the most depressed, it was Feng Deyi's full support that allowed him to turn the corner many times. He has always believed that Feng Deyi is completely loyal to himself. It wasn't until he met a person, Zhang Ping, who he once trusted the most personal guard, that he was wrong, Feng Deyi really supported not himself, but his younger brother Hailing Wang Yuanji, and Zhang Ping was a person that Feng Deyi placed beside him.
Zhang Ping is a very cautious person, otherwise he would not have been able to go undercover to the side of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin and not be discovered by Li Shimin for several years. He is very cautious, even if he sleeps at night, he will not stay in the same room all night, and when he wakes up in the middle of the night, he will change rooms to sleep. His prudence, this time saved his life. He heard the killer slash at the bed he had slept on, and he knew that someone was going to kill him, and this person was definitely not the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, because the Tang Emperor Li Shimin didn't know what he wanted to know - who was the main messenger behind Zhang Ping? He knew that the person who was going to kill him was Feng Deyi, the former head of the Southern Shi Clan whom they had sworn allegiance to. Feng Deyi wanted to kill him. So he secretly escaped from his residence through the secret passage in his house, entered the Tang Palace, and confessed everything to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin.
When Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty knew that Feng Deyi, whom he had always trusted, was actually supporting Yuanji, the king of Hailing, he couldn't help but burst into a rage and scolded viciously: "Feng Deyi, a traitor, ignores my trust in him. Someone changed Feng Deyi's nickname from 'Ming' to 'Fallacy', and I wanted him to leave a stench for 10,000 years, so that future generations could see how ridiculous he was? How bold and reckless is it to deceive me? (To be continued......)
