Chapter 606: There is still a strange thing
There are two main sources of guards in the Prince's Palace, either the Jingzhong Guards who are mainly the children of the nobles, or the young guards selected by the local military camps, Zhen Zhihui and Yi Liancha belong to the latter, but the guards like them are rarely able to obtain the special trust of the King of Zhou, and to put it bluntly, it is difficult to mix the road to glory and wealth.
Yi Liancha originally did not have the ambition of glory and wealth, but people often can't withstand the temptation of suddenly falling from the sky, in fact, when he was still in the capital, the people of the Qi Palace's secretly connected with him, and did not ask him to take any risky things first, and even gave him a huge sum of money without asking for it at all.
It is true that if the King of Qi directly ordered Yi Liancha to assassinate the King of Zhou, even if he tempted Yi Liancha with glory and wealth, he would not dare to obey the order, he is not a bare pole, he has parents, brothers, wives and children, he does not have to choose to become a dead soldier and can still be without lack of food and clothing, he cannot pull a family to accompany the King of Zhou to the funeral, glory and wealth are tempting, but they also have to have life to enjoy to have value.
Therefore, Yi Liancha's task is only to provide information for the King of Qi, which is not easy to expose, even if it is exposed, at least there is a chance to exempt Zhu Lian's family, and the risks and benefits obtained are enough to attract Yi Liancha's heart.
In case King Qi wins the throne and becomes the future Ninety-Five Supreme, the meritorious hero Yi Yicha can completely get rid of the low-level lintel of the military household, and is expected to be among the powerful and noble class, and even if the King of Qi is defeated, he may not necessarily expose the identity of the spy, there is no glory and wealth to enjoy, at least he can keep food and clothing worry-free, even if the worst case is true, he will only die.
And of course Yi Liancha also understands that King Zhou doesn't need to prove his guilt at all, he is a spy, and his value lies in the secrecy of his identity, once exposed, not to mention that King Qi will not protect him at all, even if he wants to, he will definitely not be able to protect it - where will King Zhou send him to justice? As long as it is clear that he is a spy and there are ways to make his death natural, he will naturally not let go of his family.
So there was no need to torture to extract a confession, Yi Yicha confessed the crime, he knew that he would definitely die, so he only knelt down and bowed, begging King Zhou to let his family go and not kill them all.
"Then it depends on your next performance, you should know your current value, only to convince King Qi that you are still unexposed, and can still accept what you passed on to him
News, you are useful to me, maybe in the future, not only your family, but also your capital crime cannot be forgiven. "King Zhou is not in a hurry to kill.
handed over Yi Yicha to Jin Yiwei, his testimony is actually not as weighty as Wan Puzhi's dead corpse, how can a spy found by King Zhou's side make King Qi confess? It seems more and more that King Zhou can't wait to kill each other. Although it is simple to kill Yi Liancha, it is not in line with the temperament of King Zhou to let go of King Qi so easily, so he plans to use Yi Liancha to carry out counter-plots, and it is difficult to know how much role it can play in the future, at least this time it can have a slight effect on King Zhou's presentation to the emperor.
On this day, when Chungui learned about this from Lan Ting's mouth, he broke King Zhou's thoughts: "King Qi learned that his assassination failed, and His Royal Highness will launch an impeachment to try to take advantage of this opportunity to defeat him completely, of course, he will not be restrained, he is afraid that he can't wait to discuss with Cheng Guogong, Yuan Ji and other party members, so he will first write a letter to present his feelings, saying that His Royal Highness intends to slander him." ”
"Nature." Lan Ting's jaw.
"But the King of Qi, who is in Lingnan, can hear about what happened in Jianghuai so quickly and respond in time, isn't there no silver here? His Highness - Dangercen
He has never written to His Majesty to severely punish the King of Qi, and Ning Guogong and Xu Ge Lao will not interfere with Jinyiwei's case at all, and even His Royal Highness will take the initiative to remind the Holy Lord that although the assassin is the personal guard of the King of Qi, he may not have anything to do with the King of Qi. In view of the fact that His Royal Highness is safe and sound in the end, and the two cases of assassination and robbery are widely implicated, the emperor will most likely not break lightly, and may only order the factory guards to secretly investigate, and I don't know if the results can be detected, let alone whether the chief evil will be severely punished, but at least he will not be suspicious of King Zhou because of this case. ”
Lan Ting didn't even bother to say anything this time.
Chun Gui saw that his expression was solemn and seemed to be full of worries, so he went over and sat down, took the small cover cup that Lan Ting had been holding for a long time, and put it on the low table, and asked with a sideways face: "This incident happened suddenly, but fortunately, it has turned into a disaster, what are you worried about?" ”
"Yi Liancha said that he voted for the king of Qi in Beijing, but he has never received instructions from the king of Qi, he is responsible for escorting his family to Nanjing, although he knows that His Royal Highness and we did not go with our family, and lived directly in the palace of King Wu in Jinling, but did not take the initiative to hand over this news to the king of Qi.
It wasn't until this time that His Royal Highness transferred him to Anhui to escort him and left Nanjing, that someone in the palace of King Wu took the initiative to contact him and tell him how to deliver the news along the way, and inform the king of Qi of our whereabouts, so the king of Qi learned that we were in Anhui for a private visit, and would enter Jiangxi through Anhui. ”
When Lan Ting said this, his brows frowned even more: "King Qi designed to ambush and kill in Wild Wolf Ridge, because Wild Wolf Ridge is a necessary place to enter Jiangxi by land, and it is deserted here, even if it is ambushed during the day, it will not alarm the Qingyang Guard, and it is very easy to get it." Therefore, the king of Qi sent someone to bribe the small official of the Qingyang County Ya, so that once Yi Liancha arrived in Qingyang County, he would contact the little official, and the little official would notify Wan Puzhi to prepare for an ambush.
As a result, because Wei Guogong intervened, he disrupted King Qi's plan, so when His Royal Highness was preparing to attack the robbers' den at night, Yi Liancha would contact the official to send a letter to Wan Puzhi, changing the ambush location to the pass around Wild Wolf Ridge. ”
Lan Ting simply got up and paced slowly: "Yi Niancha's confession is in line with the development of the situation, so I believe that he is not deceiving, so there is another strange thing in this." ”
Chungui was puzzled: "What's wrong? ”
"The King of Qi is a prophet who learned that we did not return to Nanjing from Lin'an, and the idea of continuing the private visit, only to inform the eyes and ears of the Wu Palace, to enable the dark line of Yi Shan Cha, to put it simply, the King of Qi has another way to find out our whereabouts, and first had the idea of ambushing, just because Yi Chacha called His Royal Highness's personal guard this time, through the detailed route provided by Yi Chacha, King Qi finally decided to do it in Wild Wolf Ridge!"
When Chungui heard this, he suddenly realized: "Don't suspect our camp, it's not just Yi Yicha who is a spy!" ”
"This is inevitable, it's not worth my anxiety, I just think about it......" Lan Ting seemed to think about his words before saying: "I know that we have not returned to Jinling, there are only those people who know that we have not returned to Jinling, the people around you and me will not be the eyes and ears of King Qi, nor will they be the personal guards who followed His Royal Highness before Zhang Kuang's case, otherwise King Qi would have been able to find out His Highness's whereabouts a long time ago, and at least the two henchmen of Tang Li Du and Bu Guan Shi would be notified to strengthen their vigilance, it can be said that when we get involved in Lin'an, we will definitely alarm Tang Li Du and Bu Guan Shi, don't say Zhang Kuang's case, Even Miss Fei's murder case is afraid that it will be difficult to solve it so easily. ”
And the other insiders, there are also a few officials who Lan Ting originally thought could be trusted, serving in Nanjing!
