Xiao Mian left publicly, and the news of Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan's deaths spread not long after.

"You said Qi Wenfu is dead?"

Yu Wenzheng turned his head and said, he was holding the battle report sent back from front of him in his hand, with suspicion in his eyes.

A person in front of him was half-kneeling on the ground: "Back to the master, it's true." ”

"The spies who stayed in Jingzhou saw the government salvage the two bodies with their own eyes, and heard that the two were still hugging each other tightly before they died, and they also found the official seal of Qi Wenfu from them, as well as the ornaments he brought to adulthood since childhood."

"The woman has already been checked, the woman's legs have been severely injured, and the two of them are also in the same shape as Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan, after hearing that Xiao Mian saw the corpse, he directly took the person in the coffin back to Huaiyu, and then in front of his father and everyone in the Xiao family, he personally twisted off his brother's head."

Yu Wenzheng knew the relationship between Xiao Mian and Qi Wenfu, and also knew that although the Xiao family was not harmonious, Xiao Mian had never really dealt with Xiao Sui, but this time he was so angry that he didn't even hesitate to kill Xiao Sui, it seems that Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan are really dead.

Yu Wenzheng smiled faintly: "It's a pity." ”

Qi Wenfu's talents should have been used by him, and with his assistance, he could also be like a tiger, but it's a pity...... He knew too much.

"Master, Qi Wenfu is dead, our people in Jingzhou ......," the man asked in a low voice.

Yu Wenzheng said: "Withdraw it, just keep a few dark chess pieces for you to adapt at any time." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly said,

"Xiao Mian is still in Huaiyu?"

The man shook his head: "No, I heard that after he killed Xiao Sui, the head of the Xiao family fainted in anger, and Xiao reluctantly took over the entire salt gang and locked up all his uncles." ”

"Now the Salt Gang is his hall, and he also said that he wants to return to Beijing for Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan Fuling."

Yu Wenzheng asked, "Which way did he go?" ”

The man said: "Avoid Ningyang, take the waterway to detour to Jianjiang Mansion, and then enter Beijing from the vicinity of Jiutang and Changyuan. ”

"Master, do you want the slave to take someone to intercept them?"

Yu Wenzheng glanced at him when he heard this, "What do you do to intercept him, it's just a coffin and two dead people." ”

"Xiao Sui is dead, and now there is no one in the Xiao family who can contain Xiao Mian."

"Although the Salt Gang is a force in the rivers and lakes, don't underestimate those people in the rivers and lakes, they really don't dare to confront the imperial army head-on, but if they really go crazy and only care about seeking revenge and relieving hatred, it is enough to cause a lot of chaos."

He killed Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan for the future layout, and because they knew too many things that they shouldn't know, it was too easy to do bad things, but now that the person is dead, he naturally has no need to force Xiao Mian to oppose him at this juncture, for the sake of the two dead people.

Yu Wenzheng has the general trend of the army, although he is not afraid of the rabble of the Salt Gang, but if the Salt Gang is really chaotic and bent on provocation, it will be a trouble after all.

The most important thing for him at the moment is to lead his troops into the capital as soon as possible and obtain the throne.

Everything else is a trivial matter, and after he seizes power, he will slowly liquidate it.

"Don't let people pay attention to Xiao Mian, just keep an eye on the movements of the others in the Yan Gang, as long as they don't go against us, Xiao Mian will let him in if he wants to enter the capital, and it just happens that he can bring back the news of their death in Qiwen Mansion and make some people die."

The man hesitated, always feeling that it was a bit risky to let Xiao Mian go, but he knew his master's temperament, and since he had made a decision, they could only do it.

"By the way, where has Ah Tang been recently?" Yu Wenzheng flipped through the two pages of the battle report in his hand, and suddenly remembered Shen Tangxi.

The man below hurriedly said: "Shen Gongzi has returned to Beijing and gone to the prison twice. ”

"Someone from the Xie family?" Yu Wenzheng raised his eyebrows.

The man nodded, "Yes." ”

Yu Wenzheng asked, "What else did he do?" ”

The man said: "Shen Gongzi also met the son of Ji Ge's hometown once, and had a small gathering with Zhou Qi, Gong Shuangcheng and others, and said something about Pei Geng and the Xie family, but other than that, he stayed in the Xiangfu Courtyard. ”

"Xiangye wanted Shen Gongzi to come to Ningyang to help the master, but Shen Gongzi was unwilling, so he also had a dispute with Xiangye, and Shen Gongzi often bought drunk alone later, and then fell asleep drunk, and didn't care about other things."

Yu Wenzheng shook his head when he heard this: "He's always such a temperament, he can't take it or put it down." ”

"You send a letter to the teacher, so that he doesn't have to let Ah Tang come over, just let him stay in Beijing, otherwise with his temperament, even if he comes, he will only add to the chaos."

"That Xie family ......"

"Xie family?"

Yu Wenzheng's expression was indifferent, "If they stay in the prison safely, for the sake of Ah Tang and the teacher, they will naturally let them live, but if they are restless, they will be sent to reunite with the prince." ”

The man who was kneeling on the ground lowered his head and said, "Yes, master." ”

……

When the news of Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan's death reached the capital, whether it was everyone in the court or Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty, there was a momentary blank in their minds at this time.

Qi Wenfu, dead?

"Where did this news come from?" Mo Linglan suddenly got up and said.

King Rui said in a deep voice: "It should be true, the excerpt sent by the Zhizhou Mansion in Jingnan has arrived in front of the saint and explained the experience, and it is said that the people of the Xiao family personally recognized the corpse, and Xiao Mian Fu Ling is already on the way to Beijing." ”

Mo Linglan's body shook slightly, and he hit the chair behind him with a "bang".

If it was someone else, he could still deceive himself and might have recognized the wrong person, but Xiao Mian personally brought Qi Wenfu and them back, and he couldn't even deceive himself.

King Anyang sat aside, his face was also ugly.

He was already old, and in just a few months, the whole person seemed to be a lot older, especially after the Xie family's accident, the court was in chaos, and Emperor Ming Xuan was stubborn and argued with him several times for the Xie family, and even reprimanded him for whether he had a bad heart with the Xie family.

When the bloodline of the so-called first emperor and the queen of the Yuan sent a message, and the army went straight to the capital, the anxious Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty found him again and wanted him to come forward to suppress the people in the court, but he has been absent from the court for a long time, and the capital has already been infiltrated, how can he alone suppress those ghosts and ghosts.

King Anyang proposed several times to let Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty let go of the Xie family and let Xie Yuan lead the troops to resist the enemy, but Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty has always been suspicious of Gu Zuoyan and the right, afraid that Xie Yuan would resent the previous prince, afraid that he would take the opportunity to rebel, and even more afraid that Xie Yuan would defect to the so-called righteous army after he was released from prison, and turned his head to deal with Da Chen.

King Anyang has never been so remorseful as he is now, how could he think that Emperor Ming Xuan was still a qualified king.

I knew that before the crown prince died, I should have assisted him to ascend the throne as soon as possible, and it would not be like this in the current chaos in the court.
