Chapter 178: Discovery

Most of the many corpses were from Fanbang, and at this time, the hand of the boy who died of illness suddenly moved, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

His name is Zong Ze.

He saw that it was dark all around, and when he touched it, he touched the corpse, and the smell of fish filled the surroundings.

What's going on, isn't he supposed to be dead by now?

At this time, he saw the light of the fire not far away, and gradually moved in this direction.

He escaped from the many corpses, but because of the darkness around him, he stepped on the air and rolled straight down.

And those fires stopped in front of the corpse, Zong Ze quietly got up, afraid of being discovered, so he was even careful to breathe.

All he saw was that the people who came were all dressed in black, and then they carried the bodies into the car en masse, and then they were all carried away.

Zong Ze was very puzzled, these people are dead, so what do you want these corpses to do?

His first thought was to get back to the barracks right away, but he wanted to figure out what they wanted to do.

He quietly followed.

It was dark and the road was not easy to remember, so Zong Ze marked it along the road.

When they saw a small hill, they stopped and sent the corpses in.

Zong Ze was surprised in his heart, how big is this place, it can send so many corpses into it in a steady stream, something is abnormal, there must be a demon, there must be a cat in it.

Yet he stayed near the hill all night, but he waited for nothing.

But he was so hungry that he had to go around and eat some weeds to satisfy his hunger.

For several days, no one came out.

Because there is not enough food here, and there is no water source, so he can't hold on anymore, and just when he wants to give up, he sees a person coming out of the entrance of the original mountain and autumn, and it is a Fanbang person.

Zong Ze was wondering in his heart, this hill is really greasy, and the people here have hollowed it out.

Soon the Fanbang man came out again, if it weren't for the clothes on them.

Zong Ze didn't dare to determine their identities yet, just because they were all wearing the clothes of Chenguo soldiers.

But it was the appearance of the Fanbang people, and it was obvious that they were the captives who had died before.

Zong Ze was shocked, he didn't expect to see this kind of thing at all.

Those who were already dead were able to reappear unscathed after a few days.

He remembered that at that time, the adjutant general said that the bodies had not been found, and now he could probably think clearly, why could he not find the bodies of the group of people?

Because those people weren't dead at all.

This is simply a shocking secret, Zong Ze was anxious, and wanted to go back to tell them about it, at this time, three or five soldiers patrolling near the small mountain village found his traces.

Zong Ze was very flustered, but his first reaction was not to run away, because he knew that if he ran away, he would arouse suspicion.

"Hey, did you just wake up?

What are you doing here? ”

Zong Ze scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I came out to pee, and I was a little embarrassed inside." ”

"Okay, okay, you can go back quickly, don't run around if you have nothing to do."

Zong Ze hurriedly nodded.

After the soldiers finished patrolling, they thought about running, but after running for a while, the soldiers seemed to react, chased after him, and told him to stop.

Now that it has been exposed at this time, there is no reason to stop again, Zong Ze spread his legs and ran forward desperately.

But in the end, he is only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, no matter how good his physical strength is, he is not as strong as a few of them.

In order to avoid the matter being revealed, several soldiers slashed at him with large knives.

If you want to kill people, although you are young, you have been in the army for two years, and you have some kung fu in the end.

After fighting with them for a while, he finally lost his strength, and this was at a life-and-death juncture.

He snatched a knife from one of them as best he could, and without thinking about it, he stabbed it straight into it and killed one.

Several other people were also scared, and their movements were a little sluggish, Zong Ze saw this opportunity this time, and worked harder to kill, and in less than a while, several people all fell to the ground and were dying.

Zong Ze was very flustered in his heart, if they themselves were alive, they would definitely tell others, then the people there would know that their affairs had been revealed.

Although Zong Ze has been training in the army for two years, he is still a child who has never killed anyone.

Even, I haven't been on the battlefield, and the first time I kill someone, in addition to the short-term pleasure, is more afraid and panicked.

Even the hand holding the knife was trembling, and he didn't know why Chu Jiao's gentle face flashed in his mind.

At this time, these people must be killed, so he did not hesitate to kill all these dying people.

This place is not far from the place of the small hill, and Zong Ze is afraid that their bodies will be discovered, so he can only drag them one by one in a very simple way, and bury them in a hurry.

Then he hurried back to the barracks with all his might.

……

At this time in the palace, Yao Chi was reviewing the recital, and Xiao Guifei received instructions from her brother.

Although I blame my brother for not doing things properly, there is no way.

She could only dress up, and then came to Yao Chi's Heart Cultivation Hall at night.

"The concubine has seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty Chitose Jin'an."

"Why is Concubine Ai here?"

Xiao Guifei saw that Yao Chi's face was not very good, so she sat over delicately.

Sitting on Yao Chi's lap, he shook his arm gently, his expression was a little pleading, and his voice was delicate: "I see Your Majesty frowning, but you are unhappy because of my brother's affairs?" ”

Yao Chi was holding her hand, but when he heard her talk about it, he let go of her hand and touched the red pen on the case instead.

Even his expression didn't have the softness he had just now: "This is a matter of the previous dynasty, as a concubine in the harem, it's better to take care of this kind of thing." ”

Xiao Guifei was stunned for a moment, although she was a little scared in her heart, but for the sake of Yao Chi's love for her, she still continued.

"Your Majesty~ It's definitely not a casual question, Your Majesty doesn't want the concubine to say it.

However, the concubine also knew that the elder brother wanted to punish him if he did something wrong, which was right, but the concubine only begged His Majesty not to get angry and hurt her body, if that was the case, it would be very unworthy. ”

After Yao Chi heard this, he suddenly became interested.

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Concubine Xiao Guifei held Yao Chi's face with both hands, and then said, "Your Majesty."

What can a concubine mean?

The concubine only hopes that no matter what happens, it will not hurt His Majesty's mood, after all, it is the dragon body that is important.

However, in the matter of the concubine's brother, please leave your brother's life, so that he can give him a chance to reform and reform.

Let him continue to serve His Majesty well, if he makes any mistakes in the future, the concubine will definitely have no face to beg His Majesty again. ”

Looking at this face, which was somewhat similar to Chu Jiao, most of the anger in Yao Chi's heart had disappeared.

"Okay, this matter really has its own plan, now it's getting late, and it's more exposed, so you don't have to go back, just stay here."

Xiao Guifei looked unrelenting: "Your Majesty, the concubine begs you, if this matter can't have a good result, the concubine feels uncomfortable." ”

Yao Chi stared at Xiao Guifei's face, was silent for a while, and his tone gradually became indifferent: "Guifei, you are overstepping."

If there is a next time, I don't think you have to live in the Chonghua Palace."

Seeing that Yao Chi's face was wrong, Xiao Guifei hurriedly fell into his arms, and those little hands kept turning in his heart, gently comforting her: "Your Majesty, it's not good to be a concubine, don't mention it anymore, Your Majesty, don't be angry." ”

Yao Chi let go of her and let her go down.

The concubine stood beside him, and Yao Chi said: "I still want to watch the recital, you go to sleep first, and someone will naturally send you back to Chonghua Hall after dawn." ”

After Xiao Guifei looked at Yao Chi and finished speaking, she stopped looking at her.

Watching the twists and turns on the case intently, this was the first time she felt that her favor was so powerless.

Yao Chi's liking for her is only because of her face.

But this face will also grow old one day, and now Yao Chi will not do anything for her.

What she gave her was just some glory and wealth in the harem, so she wouldn't give more in the future.

She had an idea in her heart that the rise of the Xiao family was acquiesced by the emperor, and her position today was also given by the emperor, maybe His Majesty was just for the checks and balances of the previous dynasty.

It's not for her, it's not because I love her, once I have this idea in my heart.

The concubine went back to lie down honestly.

She didn't dare to make any more moves except to be obedient.

This was the first time she had questioned this sudden favor.

Yao Chi received a secret letter from Qin Shao from afar at this time, which involved a thousand ghosts, Luo Min and the Western Regions, and after reading it, he burned the letter, and his expression became complicated.

"You are now in a hurry of eight hundred miles to deliver this letter to the hands of Emperor Li Dynasty.

Tell him that I have something to counsel with him.

If he still refuses to come after reading the letter, go and tell him about it. ”

Saying something Yao Chi said in the ear of the subordinate, the man turned around and left.

In fact, everyone doesn't know much about the Western Regions, and the reason why Yao Chi wants to invite Emperor Li Chao over is also to prevent trouble, after all, Fanbang is divided between these two countries, if something happens, Li Chao should also do his part.

Gonggong Li stared at Xiao Guifei outside and never came out of it, so he told the queen's people about it.

After Chu Qing heard this, although she didn't like it in her heart, she endured it for the sake of the emperor's heir.
