Chapter 145: The Final Winner
Xu Lanyin's leg was next to Hong Zhen's leg, heard his heart, and knew that Hong Wei sent someone to assassinate him.
Xu Lanyin didn't expect that the opportunity she had been looking for would be sent to her in such a way. With Hong Zhen's whistleblowing, Zhao Wu had enough reason to explain the situation to Minhu, and the investigation of the Yiju Restaurant case was three years ahead of the book.
Ever since she had that suspicion, Xu Lanyin has been a little conflicted, afraid of getting angry. But with the change of Hong Zhen and his internal response, many things are much easier. If the plan is made, the predetermined trajectory can be completely changed, Hong Zhen's family escapes, and she also saves the people she wants to save.
She whispered into Hong Zhen's ear, "Brother Hong was hunted down and killed, is there someone who wants to kill him?" ”
Hong Zhen was stunned for a moment, looked at Xu Lanyin incredulously, and asked, "How do you know?" ”
Xu Lanyin said in a low voice, "Zhao Wu has long noticed that the Yiju Restaurant is inappropriate, and your personal soldier Liu Yong is very close to them, so he has noticed that you entered the Bofu peacefully. The voice was lowered, "The deputy envoy of the provincial capital, Lord Minhu, also noticed them......
"Sister......" Zhao Wu whispered incredulously. He also guessed that Yiju Restaurant might want to win over Hong Zhen but didn't get it, and killed people. But I didn't expect Xu Lanyin to be so bold that he dared to lie and pull Min Hu in. However, he was not stupid enough to expose Xu Lanyin's lies.
Listening to Xu Lanyin's words, Hong Zhen's eyes turned red. He didn't expect that the Hong family's treason and collaboration with the enemy had already been discovered.
He said sadly, "I didn't collaborate with the enemy, but my family couldn't escape being raided in the end." We have been wronged, wronged......"
Xu Lanyin said, "Those people don't worry about you, and they can't worry about Sister-in-law Hong." I'm afraid that Sister-in-law Hong and Fang'er Wen'er will be wiped out by them before they are destroyed by the imperial court. ”
Hong Zhen's fists were clenched tightly, and he gritted his teeth and scolded, "Hong Xihuan, that old thief, Hong Wei, ...... erector."
Hong Xihuan is the current Pingjin Bo, who was the governor of the Right Army at the time, and was in charge of the western soldiers and horses in the Right Army Governor's Office.
Xu Lan said with good intentions, "If Brother Hong does something, the Hong clan's merits and demerits will be compensated, not only can you keep your family safe, but maybe you will also protect all the clansmen who are not involved in the Hong family...... If you think about it, isn't this the reason? ”
Hong Zhen understood and said, "You are making me a nail......
Xu Lanyin said, "Well, tell Zhao Wu what you know, and Zhao Wu will contact Lord Min again......
Hong Zhen asked again, "Can Lord Min trust me?" ”
Xu Lanyin said, "Lord Min is a smart person and a good official, after some secret investigation, he will naturally believe you." ”
Hong Zhen looked at the two corpses and said, "But they ......"
Xu Lanyin said, "Your martial arts are good, your hearing is good, and you are familiar with the surrounding terrain. When you find someone stalking, you lead them into a trap and kill them. After that, you thought about it for a long time, and for the sake of your wife and children, you had to choose to cooperate with them...... Being forced to cooperate with them in this way may be more reassuring to them than if you were to say yes. ”
Hong Zhen clenched his fists and thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I have no choice, I am cornered...... His grandma's, I'll it! ”
He had multiple wounds on his body, none of which were fatal, and he was able to make his way back to the barracks. Now that the gate of the county town is closed, I have to go back tomorrow morning.
Hong Zhen said that listening to Hong Wei's meaning, the Hong family was secretly helping the crown prince Liu Zhaoping to do things. After the crown prince ascends the throne, he will immediately become the daughter of the Hong family, who is the prince Liangyuan, as the queen......
Xu Lanyin's previous suspicions were even worse, if the crown prince Liu Zhaoping was really the big boss behind the scenes, how could he casually tell Hong Zhen, who had not yet been completely pulled into their camp, about such an important matter?
After a few people discussed for a while, Hong Zhen stumbled away, and Zhao Wu dragged the two corpses deeper into a trap, where the beast would eat them at night. There are incomplete bones left, and unless they are made by Tang Cheng, others can't see how they died.
Zhao Wucai asked Xu Lanyin quietly, "Sister, how can you lie to Brother Hong, where did Lord Min know about that?" ”
Xu Lanyin said, "Silly, you have found an opportunity to go to the provincial capital in the past two days and quietly explain to Lord Min, won't he know?" You Zhao Wuhuo's eyes are like torches, and you are very smart, and you found that the shopkeeper of Yiju Restaurant was suspicious, so you have been paying attention to this restaurant, and then inadvertently saved Brother Hong, knowing that the Hong family treason and collaborating with the enemy through Yiju Restaurant......"
Xu Lanyin remembered that in the book, Gu Wangchen reported that many years ago, Xijin Bofu and Yiju Restaurant colluded to kill the former prince Liu Zhaoyin, and Xijin Bo Hong Xihuan and the prince Hong Wei learned of the situation in advance, and both committed suicide in fear of crime. The golden shopkeeper couldn't survive the heavy punishment and confessed, and while leading people to spy on intelligence in the daimyo realm, he cooperated with the second prince Liu Zhaoping through Hong Xihuan's father and son, and killed the first prince Liu Zhaoyin to blame the rebel king, and the second prince promised to give heavy thanks to the Western Xia Kingdom after succeeding to the throne......
A few years ago, the former crown prince Liu Zhaoyin was assassinated and had his left arm cut off on his way to comfort the victims. Because his left arm was cut off by Qi Qi, even the old doctor couldn't save his arm, only his life. Several of the Assassins were killed on the spot, as the corpses of the rebel king were among them, and it was assumed that the rebel king had committed them.
It is also written in the book that the first queen only had two sons, and the eldest son Liu Zhaoyin was very smart and liked by the emperor, and he was made the crown prince at the age of five. And the youngest son, the fourth prince, is a little stupid and has always been like a child. One son was a fool, and the other son became crippled, the first queen was furious, and died of illness two months later, and Liu Zhaoyin's position as the prince was also abolished.
After the first crown prince was deposed, the second prince Liu Zhaoping and the third prince Liu Zhaoxian both had high voices.
Both of them are wise, filial, diligent, benevolent, and the emperor likes them, and they have always been indecided. The ministers of the court and the central government were divided into two factions, some supporting the second prince and some supporting the third prince.
The mother of the second prince is Concubine Sun Shu, beautiful, gentle, and quite favored by the emperor.
The mother concubine of the third prince is Fu Guifei, who has a high position. After the emperor did not establish it again, the harem has always been led by Fu Guifei, and she is a real uncrowned queen. Because of the relationship between the mother and the concubine, the voice of the third prince is even greater than that of the second prince.
Later, the emperor occasionally got a good sentence in his dream: The beacon fire shines on Beijing, pointing to the peace of the sun.
The emperor asked the Qintianjian to interpret the dream, and the Qintianjian said that it was good luck, and the Daimyo Dynasty was just around the corner to pacify the western border. also said that this is a sign from heaven that the second prince Liu Zhaoping is the next true dragon emperor......
Liu Zhaoping was so lucky to win and become the crown prince with a dream of the emperor, while the third prince was defeated.
Later, because of Gu Wangchen's denunciation, the Fujian household, who was then the Hebei Provincial Punishment Envoy, quickly cracked the case, and Liu Xihuan, the westward prince, colluded with the Western Xia State to assassinate the former prince Liu Zhaoyin, and deliberately coaxed the rebel king to kill him to create a fake scene. Liu Zhaoping and Sun Shufei committed suicide by taking poison because they were involved in the "collaborator" case, and the third prince Liu Zhaoxian became the ultimate winner.
