Volume 3 Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains 121 Zheng Xin rebelled

Although Qiu Yizhi's mind was clear, he still couldn't accept such a drastic change in the situation, and gritted his teeth fiercely and said: "Even if Wen Honghui persuades the eldest brother to rebel, the eldest brother may not listen to him." Even if there is a real rebellion, in this Jinling City, there are still the emperor and the prime minister in charge, and he can't make much waves. I don't have a single soldier in my hands now, even if I go out, it won't do much, but it will set myself on fire, so it's better to stay here first. ”

Wen Lingjiao didn't know that Qiu Yizhi had talked to Zhong Likuang in detail, and of course she didn't know why he suddenly became so procrastinated at such a critical moment, and she was already so anxious that she gritted her teeth.

At that moment, I heard a sound of compact footsteps outside the cell door, and the footsteps were dense and heavy, as if a group of heavily armed soldiers were rapidly approaching.

After a moment of hesitation, Qiu Yizhi really saw a group of soldiers, all wearing heavy armor and holding spears, walking quickly to the door of the cell, and the leader stepped forward and said loudly: "By order, Qiu Yizhi will be corrected on the spot!" ”

Qiu Yizhi's head suddenly dizzy when he heard these words: What? You're going to kill me? Or was it at the behest of the emperor?

But after all, he was a person who had experienced life and death several times, so he quickly calmed down and stepped forward and asked, "What about the Holy Decree?" Where is it? Show me! ”

The person who spoke was questioned like this by Qiu Yizhi, and Fang Cai's momentum disappeared instantly, but he was a little nervous, and hurriedly replied: "No...... Without a holy decree, this ...... This is the emperor's dictation......"

"Impossible!" Qiu Yizhi immediately interrupted his words, "I am the emperor's righteous son, and I have the title of earl, if you want to kill me, you must be very cautious." How could a wise saint like the emperor kill me at will? ”

After saying these few words, Qiu Yizhi became even calmer, and suddenly thought that with his own identity, even if the emperor really wanted to kill himself, the person sent to deliver the decree would inevitably be the prince, the prime minister or other important ministers above the second rank, and it would not be the turn of the little officer in front of him who he had never seen before.

Listening to the very strong northwest accent in the officer's mouth, Qiu Yizhi was already very sure that he was a soldier newly recruited by Zheng Xin from the northwest, and this will to kill himself must have been issued by Zheng Xin.

So Qiu Yizhi's face was full of indignation, his eyes were round, and he scolded: "The emperor's eldest son Zheng Xin sent you, right?" You're pretentious! It is to be executed for a long time, broken bones and ashes, and never recovered! Don't give me an immediate apology! ”

The officer, who was as tall as a stone statue, was frightened by Qiu Yizhi's sudden outburst of anger and took two steps back, suddenly remembered the heavy responsibility he was carrying, gritted his teeth, and ordered in the Northwest dialect: "Brothers, kill him for me!" ”

The soldiers brought by this officer were really newly recruited by Zheng Xin from the northwest, and he didn't know the details of Qiu Yizhi's identity, so he naturally lost his fear, listened to the order, immediately raised his spear, and assassinated him in the direction of Qiu Yizhi.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Wei Chi Jiming's long howl, and flashed in front of Qiu Yi's body with a fast body that was almost unclear, grabbed a spear that pierced directly with his left and right hands, and didn't know how to use a thousand catties to snatch the spear from the soldier's hand, but immediately threw it on the ground, pulled out the short knife on his waist with his backhand, and slashed it at the throat of the two soldiers, and took their lives in the blink of an eye.

This group of soldiers from the northwest had never seen such strange martial arts, and they were stunned for a moment, neither daring to move forward nor retreating, and seemed a little at a loss.

It was still the leading officer of Fang Cai, who had also been in close contact with Lingnan King Zheng Gui, and had seen some of the world, so he immediately reacted and said: "Brothers, don't be afraid, throw the spear out to me!" ”

The cell is just a big butt, and if you throw dozens of spears at once, where there is still a place to dodge, you have to be stabbed into a hedgehog.

At this moment, I suddenly heard an angry roar from behind the Northwest Army: "Where did the bandits come from?" How dare you break into the prison? ”

Although the sound of this angry shout was not loud, it carried a strong penetrating power, and it shook the eardrums of everyone present.

Yu Chi Jiming listened, but showed a happy expression and said, "It's okay, it's my father who has arrived." ”

Qiu Yizhi listened to Yu Chi Jiming's words, and immediately shouted: "Brother Yu Chi, it's me Qiu Yizhi, these are all thieves, kill them all!" ”

Wei Chi Lianghong listened to Qiu Yizhi's request, did not hesitate for a moment, and showed no mercy at hand, displayed his supreme martial arts, and killed behind this group of soldiers from the northwest. Yu Chi Jiming was also unrelenting here, holding the dagger given to him by Wen Lingjiao, and he also rubbed himself into the battle.

Wei Chi Lianghong and Wei Chi Jiming, the father and daughter, are the top masters in the rivers and lakes, and this group of Northwest sergeants who have also experienced a battle of life and death, how can they withstand the front and back attacks of their father and daughter? However, after a cup of tea, the dead and wounded of this group of soldiers have been relieved of their combat effectiveness.

Seeing this, Qiu Yizhi breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Wei Chi Lianghong: "Thanks to my brother's timely arrival, otherwise my younger brother's life would have been explained today." But I don't know why my brother is here? ”

Wei Chi Lianghong took a slight breath and said: "I also happened to pass by outside, because I was also on an errand in the Criminal Department, I heard that someone had broken into the prison, so I came in to take a look, but I didn't want to encounter such a situation, so I had to take action." ”

Qiu Yi thought that this group of people from the northwest had entered the cell by order or on Zheng Xin's orders, and they might not have forcibly broken inβ€”so the "someone" in Yu Chi Lianghong's mouth might actually be Wen Lingjiao and Yu Chi Jiming.

However, the reasons for this are just trivial matters today, and there is no need to delve into them at all.

So Qiu Yizhi said: "It's just right that my brother is here, now is the time to use my brother, there is a rebellion outside, and my brother will put down the rebellion with me, and I will have the credit of protecting the sky!" ”

Yu Chi Lianghong is the leader of the martial arts alliance in the end, compared to those outlaws who are lustful and blind, he heard Qiu Yizhi's words, and he didn't think of the so-called opportunity to "make meritorious contributions", but asked: "Isn't the virtuous brother alarmist, right?" The emperor is sitting in Jinling, and he has just put down the rebellion of the Lingnan Palace, who dares to make a rebellion at this time? ”

"The emperor's eldest son - Zheng Xin." Qiu Yizhi replied very succinctly.

"What? Your Highness? How is this possible? Yu Chi Lianghong obviously didn't believe Qiu Yizhi's words.

It is not surprising that Chi Lianghong, who is as shrewd and capable as Wei Chi Lianghong, does not believe Qiu Yizhi's words. After all, Zheng Xinping, the eldest son of the emperor, always shows people the image of a gentle and frugal filial son and grandson, if someone rebels, no matter what, he can't guess that the main envoy is actually him.

Qiu Yizhi thought that the current situation was critical and there was no room for delay, so he said: "Brother, you might as well probe the tone of these people who were defeated by you, and ask them whose subordinates they are, wouldn't it be clear?" ”

When Wei Chi Lianghong heard this, he immediately bent down and lifted a soldier whose feet were broken into the air with his right hand, and then clicked on three or five acupoints on his body with his left hand, and asked viciously: "Are you uncomfortable?" Tell me who sent you, and I'll unlock your acupuncture!" If you lie to me, I have a hundred ways to make you unable to survive or die! ”

Wei Chi Lianghong ordered several large acupoints that went straight to the heart and nerves, and the soldier suddenly felt that there seemed to be thousands or tens of thousands of ants eating his bone marrow all over his body, and he gritted his teeth in pain and replied, "Yes...... It was sent by His Highness. There was a clear Northwest accent in his voice.

When Wei Chi Lianghong heard this, he immediately trembled, threw the soldier down, and asked in a very confused manner: "Brother Xian, what you said is actually true. Can...... But it is His Highness who is causing trouble, and what can we do with such great authority? ”

That's really to the point.

Qiu Yizhi's mind began to calculate rapidly: "Zheng Xin is already the eldest son of the emperor's knees, and he is really 'under one person, above ten thousand people', he listened to Wen Honghui's words, and took the liberty of making trouble, isn't it the emperor's position that he asks?" Presumably he himself felt that his father, Emperor Zheng Rong, was more and more inclined to pass on the throne to his third son Zheng Miao, and unless he took a risk, he would never be destined to become the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. And if you want to make the current extremely strong-willed emperor change his mind, unless he sends troops to force the palace and force the emperor to make an edict to pass on the throne to himself. Today's emperor is wise and powerful, although the dragon is in good health, but in terms of talent, knowledge, prestige, and control of the army, all of them far surpass Zheng Xin, Zheng Xin rashly launched such a coup, in fact, the possibility of success is not very large. ”

Thinking of this, Qiu Yizhi's mood was already settled, so he said: "I'm afraid the emperor has also received the news and has begun to put down the rebellion, it doesn't seem appropriate for us to face the saint immediately, let's go see the prime minister at first sight." ”

Zhong Li Kuang is the only person in the court who can control the overall situation except for the emperor, and it is indeed a good choice to meet him when encountering such a big event.

So Wei Chi Lianghong said: "This is very good, everything is arranged by Prime Minister Zhongli, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Having said this, Wei Chi Lianghong found that Wen Lingjiao was also standing behind Qiu Yizhi, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Yo, why is Miss Wen here too?" After your sect was exterminated, didn't the sect leader and the holy woman have not heard from you? I put so many eyeliners in the rivers and lakes, but I can't find them! ”

Qiu Yizhi knew that Yu Chi Lianghong had always had some prejudices against the Tianzun Sect, so he hurriedly explained: "Miss Wen has left the Tianzun Sect. Now Tianzun Sect Leader Wen Honghui is by Zheng Xin's side, and he is thinking about the rebellion. If it hadn't been for Miss Wen's report, I would have died. ”

Wei Chi Lianghong was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Wen Honghui is a character, and if he is making waves, he can't complain that His Highness wants to risk the disapproval of the world." Without further ado, let's do it quickly. With that, he beckoned to the crowd and walked out of the prison with a step.

At this time, it was still dawn, the sky was just dawning, and the city of Jinling was still calm, but the smell of tension and blood was faintly felt floating in the air.

The four of them walked briskly all the way, and after walking for a quarter of an hour, they had arrived at Zhong Li Kuang's temporary mansion.

Qiu Yizhi raised his eyes and looked at the door of the mansion, and suddenly exclaimed: "No, I'm afraid something is wrong." ”

Wei Chi Lianghong's heart tightened when he heard this, and asked, "How can you say this?" ”

Qiu Yi's way: "My Zhongli master is very close, let alone encountering such a big thing, even in ordinary days, there are indispensable people at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion who guard the yamen and send orders." Why is there not a single soldier outside the door today? I'm afraid something has happened......"
