Chapter 58: Lost

It turned out that he was explaining the reason why Rong Yi was besieging and killing Jin Yanchen in the wilderness.

Mu Dianke said: "When did you think my brother was a murderer? Did you find out for yourself, or did someone tell you? ”

Fang Xian was silent for a while, and said, "It was Ah Yi who told me." He said that back then, the world thought that the Jin family was dead, so even if he found out that the British Duke died of the Jin family's knife method, he did not dare to tell the truth, for fear of being questioned.

When the identity of Jin Liugongzi was made known to the public, the people who participated in the autopsy did not want the truth to be buried, so they came to sue one after another.

The Holy One allowed to look through this press. All the evidence points to Jin Yanchen. ”

If you have the intention to add guilt, why worry about not finding evidence?

Mu Dianke sneered and asked, "Does the general believe it?" ”

Mu Dian had dealt with Fang Xian several times, and knew that although he was paranoid, he was an upright person.

This is probably why Rong Yi and Fang Zhidong acted to hide it from him.

But Fang Xian is not stupid.

Judging from Fang Xian's performance in investigating the case in all directions, he is not only not stupid, but also a very thoughtful and meticulous person.

He came to say this to himself for no reason, which showed that he had become suspicious of Rong Yi's statement.

Fang Xian was silent.

Mu Dian Ke said: "If you want to know why Rong Yi killed my brother, you can ask your father." My Ming Palace and your Fang Rong family have become mortal enemies, and it is impossible for them to be friends again. But I still have to tell you that before being forced by Rong Yi to have no way out, Jin Yanchen did not kill anyone in the Southern Imperial Court. In the ten years that he was incognito and wished that everyone had forgotten him, he was crazy to use the Jin family knife to make a living. ”

This statement is very convincing.

Even if Fang Xian didn't believe Mu Dianke, he should believe that the sixth prince of Jin, who was able to swallow the revenge of killing his family and destroying his clan and persevering for ten years, was definitely not a reckless person who was greedy for money and lost big because of small things.

How could he be the enemy of the entire court for a little petty profit? How could he kill people with his own knife method and expose the secret of his own existence?

A Yi is such a smart person, he wants to get this layer.

Ah Yi is also lying to him.

Fang Xian was silent for a while, and said: "I'm a person who doesn't know how to be flexible, and I don't know much about human feelings. Therefore, the elders of the clan have high hopes for several elder brothers, but they have never asked too much of me.

The two surnames asked Ah Yi for major matters, and asked the elder brother for matters in the clan. I have been in the barracks for many years, ignoring everything and contributing less to the family's worries. They are also not qualified to beak in what they do.

All I can say is sorry to you. ”

Mu Dian was slightly stunned, Fang Xian, who had been arrogant and showing people since he met, would apologize to himself for something that had nothing to do with him.

He smiled faintly and said: "The law of the jungle has been the principle since ancient times." Whether it is me or my brother, since we have embarked on this path, we are ready to be plotted and framed by others at all times. Rong Yi deceived me today, and the means I gave you two surnames in the future will not be gentler than this.

It's just a matter of winning or losing, don't be sorry. ”

Fang Xian said: "I'm sorry, so I said it." It doesn't matter if you stand it or not. ”

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Have you offended anyone in the court or the harem?" ”

Fang Rong's two families have no grievances with Jinmen, why did Rong Yi want to mobilize the people to take Jin Yanchen's life, which made Fang Xian puzzled.

His instincts told him that there was something else going on in this matter.

With such a large-scale army, even if Rong Yi was in an important position, without the approval of the Son of Heaven, he would never act so arrogantly.

So is the killing of Jin Yanchen the intention of the Son of Heaven, or is the Son of Heaven swayed by someone?

Mu Dianke shook his head: "Except for you and Liu Yan, no." ”

But before she paid the Quartet to convict Fang Xian and Liu Yan, Cutting Wind Iron had already hurt people, so it wouldn't be Liu Yan.

Mu Dianke said: "Speaking of which, I have something to ask the general for advice. In the second year of Yuan Shun, the Rong family was ordered to secretly build a workshop and preside over the refining of wind-cutting iron. Later, due to lack of funds, the workshop was suspended. During this period, a total of 50 zhang of silk was refined. Thirty zhang was sent to the camp in the north of the border, fifteen zhang was charged to the court, and five zhang were given to the Rong family as a reward.

I want to ask the general, the palace, the north of the border, and the Rongfu, which one has ever been stolen? ”

Fang Xian looked shocked.

The Rong family's supervision of cutting wind and iron is a secret. The number and whereabouts of the silk were even heard by him later. Mu Dian is like a treasure, and the number is not wrong.

"How did you know about the Wind Cutting Iron?"

Chang Qianfo said: "The fourth lady and I were chased and killed by a group of teenagers holding wind-cutting irons. The number of wind-cutting irons is not small, about fifteen or sixteen zhang long. ”

More than fifteen zhang. In other words, only the border camp in the north, or the Rong family and the inner court together, can get such a large amount of wind-cutting iron.

Fang Xian was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what he meant, and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”

Mu Dianke asked again: "So after the Rong family stops cutting the wind and iron, is there any prohibition on reconstruction?" ”

Fang Xian said: "Although the wind cutting iron is sharp, it is not an indispensable divine weapon. Ah Yi would not do this kind of thing to give people authority. ”

Mu Dianke lowered his eyes for a moment and said, "I know, thank you general." ”

Fang Xian wanted to say something, opened his mouth, and finally stopped talking.

After sitting silently for a while, he stood up and said: "A heroic member of the Jin family, when I was young, I often heard the elders in my family talk about the feats of the people in Jinmen who punished the traitors and eliminated the evil and resisted foreign enemies, and I admired them very much. ”

Mu Dian was full of self-deprecation: "Punish the traitor and eliminate the evil, and finally get rid of himself." ”

Fang Xian had vaguely guessed the truth in his heart, and Mu Dianke's words confirmed his speculation. For some reason, he felt ashamed.

He remembered the years when Fang Rong's two families were in trouble, although life was hard and difficult step by step, the men in the family, and even those women who couldn't pick up their shoulders and couldn't lift their hands, were full of spirit, with straight backs and arrogance.

Later, the two surnames rose, and everyone wore silk and silk, gold and silver. Under the bright and fresh appearance, there is always a depressed and moldy smell.

He has lived in the barracks all these years and doesn't like to return home, except that he doesn't know how to face Le Shu, in fact, it is more for this reason.

The father's and brother's faces became more and more calm, and the mother's silence became more and more numerous. Even the most lively and intelligent little sister Qingyan blurred her face in the harem, which often made him feel strange.

However, even if they are so unhappy, everyone is working towards that even more unhappy direction, as if there is a tacit understanding, one after the other, and they learn from each other.

After experiencing the humiliation of being stepped into the depths of the quagmire, no one is willing to let go of the monstrous wealth and glory again. Don't dare to let go.

He thought to himself, I don't know if when he dreams back at midnight, his father, brother, and Ah Yi, who is always smiling gently in front of people and never seeing him distressed, will they want to hug their heads and cry?

Will they envy the Jin family who were wiped out more than ten years ago?

He thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, not only my father and grandfather, but also Uncle Rong and Ah Yi, they all have great respect for the Lord of the Golden Alliance. I can't say for sure, but I don't think it will be them. ”
