PS: The brother is framed

Wang Xiu's death was shocked, and the aftermath of Wang Zhenxi's killing was connected with this new round of infighting, making people completely unable to figure out the way of the Guanzhong and high-level officials. Although Wang Xiu is a civil official, but for so many years in the army, there are many protégés and former officials, and he has also left countless merits, plus he is the governor of the Assassin Mansion appointed by Liu Yu personally, and he has been admired by the latter for many years. As a long history, killing is killed, and it can't help but cause the after-effects of everyone's own danger. Wang Xiu is also in charge of civil affairs, dealing with the people of Guanzhong all the year round, he treats people modestly, never hangs his face to the local gentry, and has a good reputation among the people. He was executed in such an unknown way, and the people of Guanzhong suddenly had an impression: whether Wang Zhen is evil, Wang Xiu is evil, and the people who are liked by the locals will not end well in the end.

The people of the Assassin Mansion need to quickly weave a chain of evidence, so as to confirm the charge of Wang Xiu's rebellion, block the mouth of Youyou, and more importantly, they can give Liu Yu an explanation, after all, the latter did not explicitly say that he wanted to kill Wang Xiu. Liu Yizhen thought that the nail marks on Wang Xiu's secret letter were really left by his father, but afterwards he also felt that this matter was strange, very unlike his father's style, I don't know if it was his father's new tricks that he had recently learned, but at least after thinking about it carefully, his father didn't seem to have the intention of killing Wang Xiu, and sent his secret letter to himself, maybe just to ask him to reflect on it and think about it behind closed doors. Now that the person has been killed, if there is no hard reason, it is a trivial matter to be scolded or even beaten, I am afraid that my father will be disappointed in him from now on.

As for the madman, he only used the power of his nails to coax Liu Yizhen around. borrowed his small hand to remove a stumbling block in his career. But he also knows that in the future, as long as Liu Yu's father and son meet. With Liu Yu's temper, it is bound to chase the ins and outs of this matter. It is very likely that his little tricks cannot be hidden, and this kind of deception is exactly what Liu Yu hates, so he must assist Mao Xiuzhi to dig out Wang Xiu's comrades. As long as it can be proved that there is indeed a force behind Wang Xiu that endangers Liu Yizhen, then people's attention will naturally focus on the rebellion itself, rather than digging out the small details of the rebels.

Starting with Wang Xiu's own soldiers, he began to follow the vine. Mao Xiuzhi separated them, showed them severe punishment, and lured them into a position. Inquire about Wang Xiu's whereabouts in detail. Most of them are worthless, but there are two that make Mao Xiuzhi's eyes shine:

Chen Song has been to the Changshi Mansion and has stayed for a long time. It is said that Chen and Wang only have military exchanges, and they are not close friends.

The other is that Wang Xiu went out one day without bringing his own soldiers, but only told them that if there was urgent military affairs, they could go to the Yuhuchun downstairs to call him.

Mao Xiuzhi put Chen Song's line aside for the time being, even if Chen Song had been to Wang Xiu's mansion, it wouldn't explain anything. Chen Song has a military horse in his hand. It is also natural to discuss some matters of money, food, and labor with Wang Xiu, or even find a convenience. Second, everyone knows that Chen Song is Liu Yu's favorite general, who has made outstanding achievements and risen in recent years, and it is clear that he is the second echelon of senior generals in Beifu Bing. Such a person, it is better not to offend.

But the line of Yuhu Spring is worth digging. Wang Xiu is the busiest person in the Assassin's Mansion. I've never heard of him having any leisure to drink and have fun. asked Liu Yizhen's side, if anyone had invited Wang Xiu to drink at that time. These people say that we don't like him, how can we spend money on him; Of course he doesn't like us either. And it won't spend money on us.

Late one night, Mao Xiuzhi sent someone to take the boss of Yuhuchun to the dark room of Sima Mansion. The boss was almost frightened when he saw the torture instruments on the wall. Mao Xiuzhi said, think about it, who did our Changshi Wang Xiu drink with you. The boss wanted to say that I don't remember, but he also knew that it was difficult to pass such a statement, so he counted Chen Song, Guo Xu, Hu Luzheng, Xu Zhihao, Du Chongguang, and a water ghost named Lao Si.

Kelpie?

What do water ghosts do?

The boss explained the water ghost's livelihood in detail, and after Mao Xiuzhi listened, he suddenly opened his mouth. What he didn't understand all the time was: not a single official ship moved, a cart and a horse were not allowed to go out on land, the mountains were high and the rivers were long, how did Wang Xiu send the secret letter out. Now it seems that it is likely that the water ghost drifted to pass on the book. Thinking about the appearance of the secret letter again, it was wrinkled badly, at first he thought that Liu Yu threw it away and picked it up, but now that he thinks about it, he must have to do it in order to put it in a wax pill. When the secret letter was given to Liu Yu, it was the virtue of this bad old man's face.

The same tactic, secret arrest in the middle of the night. Unexpectedly, the fourth child slept very lightly, after Wan Xiu's death, self-financing may have something to do with himself, and he has made arrangements inside and out, and when he heard a sound on the wall that night, he pulled a rope on the side of the pillow. When the soldiers of Sima Mansion rushed into the courtyard, a group of people also rushed out of each room, all of them were empty-handed, some people rang the gong to call the police, and more people surrounded the courtyard from the outside, with countless lanterns and torches, and there was no room for any small movements that were not visible. When the officer leading the team saw this situation, he had to ask someone to hurry up and invite Mao Xiuzhi to come.

Mao Xiuzhi didn't bring weapons or wear armor, and as soon as he entered the door, he snorted, saying that there was important military affairs, and he must ask Mr. Wu to go to the cold house for a cup of tea and come back before dawn. The fourth one mocked Mao Xiuzhi, saying that since he was drinking tea, why did he make such a big move, making my people think that the Beifu soldiers were going to rob the people.

He got on his horse proudly, and hundreds of gangs followed behind, swaggering to Sima's mansion. Mao Xiuzhi wanted to deceive him, saying that Wang Xiu had already confessed, and you helped him pass on the secret letter to Jiangdong, intending to separate the father and son of Song Gong and wait for an opportunity to seize power in Guanzhong. He is the mastermind, you are only an accomplice, if you tell the truth, we can not pursue it.

The fourth child was a little secretly surprised at first, but he was a foraging person on the field of life and death, not only had he seen the turbulent waves of the Yellow River, but also dealt with countless people on the black and white road. Because if Wang Xiu really confessed, he could arrest people at that time, why bother to come in like a thief in the middle of the night, and be so polite to himself.

Thinking of this, he took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth and spit on the ground:

"Since Mao Sima has a confession, dare to ask Wang Changshi if he said in his confession how much money he spent to hire me?"

Mao Xiuzhi was stunned, and immediately scolded himself for being careless, and did not ask the boss of Yuhuchun about the market of the fourth child. In fact, he just asked. It is impossible to know that the fourth child offered Chen Song the price of a gold ingot, because this is not the usual price of flood warnings in the rainy season.

The panic on his face was fleeting. But he didn't escape the eagle eye of the fourth child. The latter knew that if he didn't feed Mao Xiuzhi some material today, it would be difficult to get out. Nai sighed and said that since Wang Xiu was still biting people indiscriminately when he died, I couldn't carry the charge of being confused, so I had to explain the truth to Sima. Wang Xiu didn't know where he knew that I had the treasure of "No Hunger Pill" in my gang, so he invited me to dinner that day and asked me to hand over the formula of the No Hunger Pill, saying that with this, I would not have to worry about running out of food for the three armies on expeditions in the future. How did he know that this "no hunger pill" was the foundation of my Water Ghost Gang, and it couldn't be sold for ten thousand taels of gold. So although he tried every means to persuade him, and there were still a few military masters on the side to help, I still flatly refused.

This statement was tightly matched, and he couldn't find the slightest flaw, Mao Xiuzhi listened to it in a daze, knowing that the fourth child was lying, but there was nothing he could do. He also knew that the Water Ghost Gang was different from ordinary people, not only the officials and people of Guanzhong were protecting them, but also the Xianbei on the north bank of the Yellow River. The newly returned prefectures and counties on the south bank of the Yellow River have all begged them, and their boss must not hurt an inch of flesh and skin in his own hands. I had no choice but to politely send the fourth child away.

Then break through from Du Chongguang.

As soon as the news of Wang Xiu's death came out. The fourth child had already had an emergency meeting with Du Chongguang and unified the caliber. Du Chongguang was also kidnapped in the middle of the night and dragged to the dark room of Sima Mansion. Tied to a firing post. As a result, whether it was the first salute or the second soldier, Du Chongguang meant the same thing: Wang Xiu asked him to invite the fourth child to dinner. I asked him for the "No Hunger Pill" formula, but the latter didn't give it. I blame myself for being troubled, and now I have turned my face and stopped talking. Mao Xiuzhi let Du Chongguang whip more than a dozen times, and then hung him headfirst down, and drowned in the big bucket a few times, Du Chongguang screamed and cried, begging bitterly, but the words were still those few words. In fact, he knew very well that if he told the truth, Mao Xiuzhi would not let him go, but would only kill people and kill him; Besides, Mao Xiuzhi let himself go and betrayed the Water Ghost Gang, and those people will not give up, if they make a move, it is likely that the government will be unable to solve the case. Gritting his teeth and surviving the flooding, Mao Xiuzhi let him go, telling him not to tell what happened tonight, otherwise it would kill his dog, and then kicked him out of Sima Mansion.

At this point, Mao Xiu was at a loss.

But after listening to him, the madman came to his senses. Mao Xiuzhi and he are grasshoppers on the same rope, but carefully weigh it, if someone overturns the case for Wang Xiu in the future, Liu Yu wants to investigate the cause of the matter, Mao Xiuzhi is at most a misjudgment, and he Feng Zizhang is framed, so he needs an iron case more than Mao Xiuzhi, think about it, since the water ghost gang is forbidden, the fourth piece of hob meat is difficult to cut for a while, it is better to start with Chen Song and Guo Xu. He understands these two people, Chen Song is more shrewd than Guo Xu, but after all, he is more upright than the city government, and he is not an expert in conspiracy, if he operates it properly, he should be able to find a breakthrough. He had already decided that Wang Xiu was definitely not looking for the fourth child to ask for a formula, he must have asked him to pass the message, but if Chen Song and the others didn't help, the fourth child might not be able to pass the level when he entered and exited Chang'an.

A madman doesn't simply abandon his brother's affection, but if he is not vicious at this time, his net worth and life will be difficult to protect in the future, how can he still have a skin bag to hold his brothers?

The discussion was decided, and it was decided to cut first and then play, and send Mao Kanzhi to the army to bring Chen Song and Guo Xu. As for Hu Luzheng and Xu Zhihao, the madman felt that they should not know the core secrets. Too much is involved, but it is easy to leave flaws.

The mind of the madman, Chen Song and Guo Xu naturally had no way of knowing, they thought that Mao Xiuzhi was doing it. The moment he saw Wang Xiuren, Chen Song strengthened this judgment, because the discord between Wang and Mao was no longer a secret, and its sharpness was no less than that of Wang and Shen discord before. At the same time, Chen Song believed that Wang Xiu must have died because of the secret letter, because although Mao Xiuzhi had a murderous intention, he could not lightly touch the murderous intention, unless Liu Yizhen nodded, and after checking Liu Yizhen for a long time, it seemed that only the secret letter was enough to make him angry.

But when they arrived at the Assassin's Mansion, it was a madman who took them over.

The madman smiled all over his face, saying that the two eldest brothers should not be surprised, and Yizhen Assassin Shi asked me to invite the two of them to come over for questioning, presumably there was some misunderstanding in the middle. It doesn't matter, just make it clear. The two of you are here, and you will not be wronged in any way.

Chen Song's brain was fast, and he immediately realized that this was not what Liu Yizhen meant. Liu Yi is really a child, what do you want to do, if you really want to ask, you will immediately ask in person, how can you call the governor to ask? Besides, Liu Yizhen likes Guo Xu, and really treats him as a brother-in-law, and he refuses to see him first after he is definitely not arrested.

That is to say: a madman has to cover the sky with one hand.

But that's a good thing. Since the madman has something to hide from Liu Yizhen, then I just want to play Liu Yizhen's card here. No matter how many questions you have, I only have one sentence: I want to see the true history of righteousness! If the madman resolutely refuses to give in. Then he could not get a word out of himself; If he was willing to let go, then he would have met Liu Yizhen. Naturally, there will be room to act on the opportunistic. The only thing he was worried about was that Guo Xu was full of blood and had few eyes, so it was easy to fall into a trap. But he was stared at along the way. After getting out of the car, they were close to people in front of them, left and right, and they didn't even have a chance to give a hint, let alone form an offensive and defensive alliance! Anyway, it's up to the blacksmith brother's creation.

He never imagined that Guo Xu, who had a hammer brain, would actually be enlightened this time, and he had touched the key point. Hearing the madman say that he was asking Liu Yizhen on his behalf, Guo Xu felt strange. He didn't suspect that the madman was deliberately framing, but he just felt that Liu Yi was really doing it. It is impossible to know that the "brother-in-law" is here and not to see him, and it is even more impossible to suspect that the "brother-in-law" is guilty and not to question him face-to-face. When he saw Wang Xiu's head, he was shocked, but he also believed that this was Liu Yizhen's personal revenge, but Liu Yizhen would not expand the matter to the army because Wang Xiu's secret letter told him. After all, without Wang Xiu, the battle can still be fought; Without people like Chen Song and Guo Xu, who will defend Chang'an? Think of it this way. I vaguely felt that the words of a madman were suspicious.

He knew that he was not someone else's opponent, and after thinking about it along the way, he made up his mind: keep his mouth shut and not say a word. If you don't say it, you can't say it wrong!

As soon as they entered the Assassin's Mansion, they were taken to the backyard and imprisoned in two small houses. There was no chance of a serial confession at all. But the heavens secretly exert force, and the gods quietly exercise. The two of them actually held the same countermeasure.

The madman knows the status of Chen and Guo in Liu Yu's mind, and also knows that Liu Yizhen likes Guo Xu and his wife. Therefore, except for using soft means to cliché, he never had the courage to use torture.

He carefully designed the first paragraph, and tailored the formula for Chen Guo and the others.

To Chen Song:

Wang Xiu has confessed, admitting that he intends to separate the father and son of the Duke of Song, and pull up the young generals in the army to start a new business in Chang'an. How you helped him, say it yourself. The history of Yizhen has already said, you are an accomplice, if you tell the truth, you can not blame the past! ”

Chen Song just one sentence:

"I want to see the true assassination of righteousness and make it clear to my face!"

The madman took great pains, and the words of a passage did not leak, neither mentioning the secret letter nor exposing the fourth child, but just falsely accused of rebellion, trying to deter Chen Song by relying on death without evidence. Unexpectedly, being smart was mistaken by being smart, this passage made Chen Song more confident. Wang Xiu may not be able to survive the torture and say something, but at most, he admits that he wrote a secret letter, and even admits that Chen Song found someone to pass the message, and he will not increase his criminal responsibility by himself, and he will make up the scary charge of trying to seize power from another stove and detain it on his head. The sinister nature of the current situation lies in the fact that no matter what Chen Song admits and what he does, he will be classified under the intention of "pulling up the young and strong generals in the army to start a new stove in Chang'an", then not only Liu Yizhen, a yellow-mouthed son, will be frightened, but even Liu Yu will be sensational. He still doesn't know if this design comes from a madman or Mao Xiuzhi, but he has strengthened his determination to let you do whatever you want, and I only have a shield - I want to see the true assassination of righteousness and history to interview!

Maniac to Guo Xu:

"Big brother, you were actually confused for a while, and you were dragged into the water by Wang Xiu. You don't know about his conspiracy with Chen Song, but Wang Xiu has already recruited him in the end. If they succeed, it may not be your benefit. Yizhen stabbed Shi and said that his brother-in-law must have been deceived by someone. As long as you make it clear that Chen Song and Wang Xiu are very close and have a conspiracy together, this matter has nothing to do with you. ”

Guo Xu was silent.

Although his mind was slow, he could also hear that it didn't taste right. Sent a letter to Liu Yu to tell Guan Zhongxing, this is what he and Chen Song both want to do, but it was Chen Song who finally found a way, and it was Wang Xiu who wrote the letter. If Chen Song hadn't wanted to borrow Wang Xiu's handwriting, he would never have begged the latter. To say that he conspired with Wang Xiu is pure nonsense! But why do you have to do such nonsense? He couldn't figure it out for a while, but he already felt that the muddy water was very deep, and he couldn't make a trip. It is the idea of keeping a tight mouth like a bottle, and letting the madman tell him in every way, but it is just a stuffy gourd!

Three days passed, and the madman found nothing.

That night, Liu Yizhen asked him to:

"I heard that you brought Chen Song and Guo Xu here, why don't you let me see them?"

This is going to come sooner or later, and the madman has long thought about how to deal with it:

"The two of them are very special, and they are favored by Song Gong. I am afraid that they will come. You'll be emotional. In fact, judging from the information that has been obtained, they and Wang Xiu are the same party. Trying to shake your position in Guanzhong. Wang Zhenxi's death, they were very unfair, and they were very close to Wang Zhenxi's sworn friend in Guanzhong; At this meeting, they helped Wang Xiu to sue you for a black state, and there was an ulterior motive behind it. In Zizhang's view, it is nothing more than an inflated ambition, and he wants to use local forces to expel the Beifu soldiers and do it alone here, and this is exactly what Wang Zhenwei did not do. Assassinate Shi and kill Wang Xiu in time. It can be regarded as cutting off their internal response and frustrating their spirit. Zizhang wanted to get their confessions first, and then ask Assassin Shi to interrogate them personally. ”

Liu Yizhen was scared and confused:

"Are they really going to do this to me?"

The madman moved out of the killer plan he had thought of a long time ago:

"You are lonely in Chang'an, surrounded by battle-hardened warriors, if you are gullible, Rong Zizhang is offended, I am afraid that there will be an unforeseen disaster, and there is no place to bury you!"

Liu Yizhen sat on the Hu bed like a wooden man.

After a long time, he stabilized his voice and said: Then you will judge carefully, and don't scruple about anything!

The madman took his leave. Ride home in the night. "Don't scruple about anything", which means that he can torture, torture, and knock people unconscious. It is also possible to beat people to death. This means that you can take the hand of a dead man and put a fingerprint on the designed confession. What Liu Yizhen wants now is self-preservation, if the confession proves that he is indeed in a whirlpool of conspiracy against him. Then he will only cling to the mast and pray for danger to pass quickly. I don't bother to investigate the details. Even if it was to prove to his father that he was right, he would convince himself that Chen Guo and the others were innocent. On the verge of walking to the doorstep. He thought of a more ingenious design: let Chen Song and Guo Xu go, and then snipe them, saying that they confessed and fled in fear of crime, and fought with the guards, but they were killed. That finger print, there will still be one.

A trace of guilt passed through his heart, after all, he had many years of love for his robes. But now he is open and there is no turning back. I have offended Chen Guo and the others before, and now I am even more ruthless. If you let them go, Guo Xu will be better, and Chen Song will definitely not spit on himself.

Brothers are in the past.

Now it is a revenge.

To fight a tiger is to die.

Cutting grass must be eradicated.

Entering the door, Ziyun greeted him with a spring face.

The madman was not interested, and pushed the woman away with a calm face. Ziyun didn't flinch, he pounced again, hugged the madman from behind, and put his face on his back and said How long have you not been home, and as soon as you come back, you will have a cold stone face.

The madman sat on the edge of the bed, and was just about to reach out and take off his boots, Ziyun was already half-kneeling to help, and while taking off his boots and taking off the footcloth, he asked softly with a raised face:

"Your face is so bad, is it frozen?"

The madman said it was angry.

Ziyun took away his boots, brought a basin of water to wash the madman's feet, and asked slowly:

"My master Feng is a celebrity in the Assassin's Mansion, who dares to be angry with him?"

The madman looked at his woman and thought that when he went out of this door, he could no longer find a person who was so pliable to him. But in today's world, people's hearts are unpredictable, and even to this person, they can't tell the truth.

sighed, and said that Chen Song rebelled, and the assassin wanted me to investigate, but this person had a very hard mouth and refused to confess. If I can't get the evidence, the assassin will blame him, and my good days will come to an end.

He kept an eye on it, and didn't mention Guo Xu for the time being, for fear of scaring Ziyun.

Ziyun was first surprised:

"Will Chen Song rebel? What did he do in rebellion? ”

The madman casually said:

"Dominate in Guanzhong! In these years, there is a shortage of soldiers, and whoever has soldiers in his hands who can fight can carve out a territory and become the boss!"

Ziyun looked at the maniac's face while scraping the thick skin of the madman's heel with his fingertips:

"He's your eldest brother, he's the boss, aren't you going to follow suit?"

The madman said to get a fart! Even if he succeeds, he won't be able to stand firm in Guanzhong. What's more, now that he has been exposed, I can't have anything to do with him! The problem is that if I can't find out about his case, the people will suspect that I am shielding him, and I will still be worried about my life at that time.

Then rubbed Ziyun's chest with his wet toes:

"When the time comes, you will no longer be the wife of the lord, and I don't know whose house you will drift to as a maid and concubine."

Ziyun's hand shook and almost smashed the madman's foot into the basin.

He went out and poured out the water for washing his feet, washed himself hastily, and when he returned to bed, the madman had already stripped himself naked. As soon as Ziyun came in, he first pounced on her and kissed her deeply, and then reached out for her wide clothes. Ziyun held his chin, looked at him and said faintly:

"There's something I haven't told anyone about, and now that I think about it, Chen Song may really want to rebel." (To be continued......)
