Chapter 226: Throwing bricks and leading the way

It's as if there is an invisible thread, an invisible hand, that wants to connect these otherwise completely unrelated people.

Fang Ming paused as she spoke, and said, "However, the main reason why I checked him is actually because of ......" She was stunned.

"Where's Kong Xunshan?"

Liao Jin is also one: "Closed, locked up......"

"Go and get someone to watch!" Fang Ming suddenly pulled out her feet, but the officers and soldiers around her drew their knives to warn her, Fang Ming had no choice but to knock on the door of the house instead, Liao Jin was afraid that she would anger the five generals inside, so she reached out to stop her, and hurriedly asked what was wrong, Fang Ming said angrily: "In order to cover up the identities of these three people, they even dare to kill innocent doctors on the street, and now that the interrogation of me is suspended, will they still keep the life of that Kong Xunshan to find a leak for me?" ”

She knocked vigorously a few times, those officers and soldiers wanted to stop again, and they didn't dare to stop her identity, at this time the door squeaked open, Fu Ming's face was very bad, and before he could speak, another officer and soldier came to report, saying that Kong Xunshan, who was imprisoned, died suddenly.

The man who secretly killed was so cunning that he seemed to be able to spy on people's hearts.

Fu Ming, Liao Jin, and Fang Ming were almost all stunned, only the watcher let out a very sharp smile at this time, and his gaze crossed Fu Ming's shoulder and fell on Fang Ming.

"Look," Fang Ming saw his lips open and close, and couldn't hear what he was saying, but saw Fu Ming's face become a little more ugly: "She is much sharper than you." ”

Fu Ming followed the road led to him by the officers and soldiers without saying a word, and went to check on Kong Xunshan, who died inexplicably, but was grabbed by Fang Ming's arm.

"Kong Shun, I'm afraid it's really too late for adults to find him again!"

Fu Ming's eyes changed, but in the end, he just closed his mouth tightly, pulled his sleeve out of her hand, and turned his head coldly and continued to walk forward.

Fang Ming had no choice but to put the last hope for help on Kong Mingmiao's body, but Kong Mingmiao also looked away, not even talking to her, or even questioning her as a superior.

Liao Jin followed behind her, obviously at a loss, but at this time, the supervisor stood in the door with his hands in his hands, and made an inviting gesture to her.

Fang Ming hesitated for less than a second, and immediately wanted to walk into the house, the supervisor made a stop gesture again, Fang Ming tilted his head and said, "Liao Jin, you stop." ”

The footsteps behind her stopped, and Fang Ming stepped into the house, and the door creaked behind her, isolating the worried eyes of her subordinates behind the door panel.

"Your Excellency thinks you're doing a good job." The regulator said slowly.

Fang Ming paused, and then understood the identity of this person, and his heart couldn't help but feel relieved.

In order to protect herself and take revenge, she defected to the royalists.

Although she never knew that the important ministers in the court were royalists, and Fang Ming had never made contact with any of the important gatekeepers, she initially thought that the turmoil caused by Li Cheng's unsuccessful return to the royalists never appeared.

To put it bluntly, when Fang Ming participated in this mess, it was actually the idea that Zhou Mingze was still alive, even if he died, he had to be able to find a point that could prove that the crown prince died at the hands of Zhou Guanzhao, convict her, and make her position unstable again.

Secondly, she also hopes that Zhou Mingze, who survived that year, can leave a seed, at least if he dies, the Zhou royal family will have a descendant who can take care of it.

It's a pity that Li Cheng didn't find anything except for that weird child and Chen Tongsheng's strange reaction along the way.

She initially suspected that the child was Zhou Mingze's seed, but it was burned clean that night, and she didn't even have a chance to identify herself.

Fang Ming reported the matter of Li Cheng truthfully, and explained that he had made a deal with Yang and Hou, so that they could arrange for Kong Meng to enter Kyoto earlier.

To her surprise, Zhou Mingze's non-existence, and the gradual fading of the resurrection of the crown prince, did not have any impact on those people, at least not on the surface.

Those people still persistently perform their duties, when they are moths, and continue to oppose Zhou Guanzhao secretly, Fang Ming often thinks, since Zhou Ming is dead, who will they support next?

Those who survived, in addition to those who had already married, either loyally relied on the emperor loyally, or had already been tightly controlled. The other men of the Zhou royal family were either old and sickly, or they were young and had a poor visible brain.

The eldest is eleven years old, and he is a distant relative of the royal family, a young man who is quite thoughtful, but his brain is said to be not good, at most he is a squandering material, and he can't afford big things.

Although over the ages, the prince has been dormant and pretended to be stupid a lot during the bloody period of seizing the heir, but then Kong Meng also went to test it and gave her back the news that the child really had a problem with his brain.

And she also sent someone to check which teenager's birthplace was, that child was indeed born, and his brain was a little bad, and he had a high fever when he was young, accompanied by convulsions and spasms, and he was sick and stupid when he was a child, and it was an ugly thing for that family.

People who really have brain problems have two words stupid written in their eyes, and they can't even compare to monkeys if they are sluggish, which is different from pretending to be by behavior.

So Fang Ming also ruled out the idea that those people wanted to choose another supporter in the current royal family.

So what are the motives that underpin the royalists today?

What will they end up with in the end, and what is their end?

She even thought that when they asked her to contact Yang Hehou, could it be that they wanted to support him and make him bring down Zhou Guanzhao?

What's the difference between this and rebellion?

Fang Ming sank his heart and said, "The three outside? ”

"No, the general's ability is obvious to all, from the fact that after reaching a deal with Hou Ye five years ago, he brought down the Shen family and his son, to cooperating with the adults to contain the Kong family, releasing the caravan passing through Fengmen Pass, and then attacking Feng Xiwen, these generals have done a very good job."

Fang Ming felt his mouth dry, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said, "The Shen family's matter is not my credit, but it just happened. As for my deal with Feng Xiwen, it's all a feud, and there's nothing to mention. ”

"Generals, don't be modest, adults know it."

The supervisor smiled slightly, wrapped his left hand around his right hand, and rubbed it gently: "Adults and generals have always been in a cooperative relationship, and a person like the general, Ling Ran is arrogant, and he will definitely not be willing to become a vassal of others." ”

Fang Ming understood: "It means that if I have an accident today, you adults will not care?" ”

He still laughed, and said half-loudly: "Why did the general say that? The general himself said that you didn't do all those things just for adults, and it wasn't a relationship between being protected by adults, not to mention, even if adults wanted to take care of it, they couldn't manage it. ”

The overseer said: "Presumably, the generals have already guessed that we are here today, which is what Your Majesty meant. ”

Fang Ming asked, "Why?" ”

Why after waiting for five years, you suddenly shot at her?

But it's normal to think about it, after all, she has secretly caused chaos to Zhou Guanzhao in the past five years, and Zhou Guanzhao just can't bear it anymore and is just looking for an opportunity to deal with her, but now the most incomprehensible thing for Fang Ming is that her crime is not anything she has done in the past five years, but a trumped-up, even inexplicable crime of killing homeless people.

"Something happened to Yang and Hou." The supervisor said: "I was on the way to the inspection, and I suddenly received an order halfway, so I temporarily turned to Fengmen Pass, Your Majesty wants your life." ”

Fang Ming couldn't help but ask: "What does Yang and Hou have to do with me?" ”

"How can this be easily known?" The overseer said: "You see, for so long, some courtiers have racked their brains to ponder His Majesty's thoughts, is there a person who can guess correctly for a long time and reliably?" ”

"What happened to Yang and Hou?" Fang Ming barely smiled a little, not letting herself look too timid and dazed.

"Don't you know?" The supervisor said: "Yang Hehou has been out of news for more than a month, he entered the mountain, entered the wasteland, and now the heavy snow has blocked the road into the wasteland, and the mountain has also been sealed. Now it's hard for people from outside to get in. ”

"In other words, even if Hou Ye was still alive when he first went in, but if it takes such a month or two months, even the immortals will survive to death."

Fang Ming felt very ridiculous, and then subconsciously shook his head: "Impossible, Yang Hehou is definitely not a person who will have problems in this kind of thing." People like him are probably still pretending. ”

But then she looked at the overseer's smiling face, and a chill rushed up her spine.

"Yes," the regulator said slowly, "Yang and Hou's positions have always been vague, but they cannot be co-opted. His father was loyal to His Majesty, but he repeatedly opposed His Majesty, in fact, if you really think about it, Yang Hehou has never really argued with Your Majesty on matters of principle, so he is just a person who is dedicated to the country like those old prime ministers. And at the beginning, he was the main force of His Majesty's ascension to the throne, and on the surface, he seemed to have a lot of trouble with His Majesty over the years, but Yang Hehou was still His Majesty's person. ”

"Your Majesty must also know this very well in her heart, Yang and Hou are one of her indestructible arms, as long as she is passable as the emperor, Yang and Hou will never do such a thing as raising troops on the side of the Qing monarch. Then the ministers, all the princely families, also understand this very well. ”

The supervisor said slowly: "But you see, now Yang Hehou has suddenly had an accident, just because of his cunning reputation, those who are ready to move do not dare to act rashly, and they are waiting everywhere to observe, this is a good time for Your Majesty, but it is a time for her not to wait." She couldn't wait until she confirmed that Yang and Hou were really dead before acting, it was too late at that time. ”

Fang Ming subconsciously took a step back.

"So," Fang Ming muttered, "Zhou Guanzhao wants to show that he is panicked, and he wants to make the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty think that something really happened to Yang and Hou, and the emperor really hurt the root because of this, so as to draw out those ..... The one who is ready to move. ”

"Say something unpleasant," said the regulator calmly, "throwing bricks and leading jade, general, you are the brick." ”
