"It's Jiang Bowen himself, he cut off the second half of his son's life." Qi Changrong smiled slightly.

"This is impossible, Jiang You is the only son of Jiang Taishi, and Jiang Taishi has always been very fond of him!"

"You're wrong." Qi Changrong's tone became heavy and cold: "In Jiang Bowen's heart, the most important thing is his interests, once he touches his bottom line, even if it is his own son, he will kill him, so let alone you?" ”

The corners of Pu Ting's lips trembled quickly a few times, and he suddenly lost his strength.

"The last time you secretly searched for him, you already angered him, do you think he will believe you this time? He must be eager to kill you as quickly as possible, so that the secret will always be a secret. ”

As this sentence fell, the expression on Pu Ting's face became more and more panicked, and a touch of despair suddenly appeared in his eyes.

No matter how stupid he is, he knows that by now, there is no need for the prince of the East Palace to deceive him, and he has known Jiang Bowen for many years, so he naturally knows that if this prince can climb to such a high position, human lives must be indispensable.

Maybe he will really be planted in Jiang Bowen's hands, but so what?

He has no other choice, except to rely on Jiang Bowen and hold on to the last straw, who else can he rely on?

His fear, his extravagant hope and despair were all transmitted from a pair of cloudy eyes.

Qi Changrong didn't miss the shaking between his eyebrows, as if he guessed what he was thinking, and smiled faintly: "In addition to pinning hopes on Jiang Bowen, Lone can also help, maybe it can't exonerate you, but in the end, at least save your life."

Moreover, the biggest difference between Lone and Jiang Bowen is that he wants your life, while Lone just wants you to confess. ”

"Your Highness doesn't want my life?" Pu Ting smiled miserably: "Your Highness loves the people like a son, maybe you want to cut me with a thousand knives right now, right?" ”

Qi Changrong said quietly: "It's just a life, it's not important to Lone, compared to your life, Lone cares more about Jiang Bowen's secret, and is curious about what he is planning in secret." ”

"So make a swap, you tell Lone everything you know, and Lone will find a way to save your life."

Pu Ting was speechless for a moment, and the only life-saving straw he could rely on was also pushed down.

Qi Changrong didn't force him, he sat quietly in place, looking around at the surroundings.

I don't know how long it has been, Pu Ting, who has been gritting his teeth, suddenly opened his mouth.

"Even if all the charges against the minister by Bai Yi will be confirmed, will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still save the minister's life?"

"Never change your word."

There was another silence, and just when Qi Changrong's patience was about to run out, Pu Ting finally let go of the last trace of insistence, and the whole person looked extremely decadent.

"I don't know much, only a little, but this is enough to make Jiang Bowen lose his trust in His Majesty, be pointed out by all the people, and be suspicious of all officials."

"What's the matter?"

"Near Tanzhou...... There is an army he raised, and that army only obeys Jiang Bowen's orders, kills people like hemp, is invincible, and has done a lot of things for him over the years. ”

"Raising an army?" Qi Changrong's hand hidden in his sleeve was tightly clenched, and he suddenly sneered: "How many people are there in that army?" ”

Pu Ting took a deep breath: "If you have less, you will have thousands, and if you have more, you will have tens of thousands." ”

"According to the law, the princes and nobles can raise 1,000 palace guards, and the first rank ministers of the court can raise 500 palace guards...... Jiang Bowen raised tens of thousands of private soldiers, did he want to rebel? ”

Pu Ting was silent.

He only knew that Jiang Bowen raised the army, but he didn't know what Jiang Bowen did to raise the army, and he had never heard that he wanted to rebel.

If Jiang Bowen only wants to use those more than 10,000 people to subvert the Great Jin Dynasty, is it too self-sufficient?

"What a loyal Taishi, a good Taishi who is for the country and the people, and is known as the pillar of the country!" Qi Changrong sneered: "It was originally a vicious wolf who wore sheep's clothing and ate people without spitting out bones, but he looked down on him alone." ”

She finally understood why the Jin Kingdom broke so quickly in her previous life, and she was almost beaten by the Liang army and had no power to fight back.

It turned out that Jiang Bowen secretly raised an army, and when the time came, he would release that army to cause chaos everywhere, disrupt the security of various states, and open up a wide road for the Liang army to lead directly to the imperial capital of the Great Jin Dynasty.

The inside should be combined with the outside, and the victory is won with one blow.

Pu Ting twisted the corners of his lips tightly and did not answer her words.

After Qi Changrong calmed down his anger, he asked him again: "Do you know the specific location of that army?" ”

"I don't know." Pu Ting shook his head and lowered his eyes: "Jiang Bowen is very vigilant, and he often changes the station, it is not easy for me to find out this bit of information, I am afraid that no one except himself knows where that army is." ”

Jiang Bowen is an old fox who has only cultivated for many years, and he has a deep mind and will not trust anyone easily.

It was normal for Pu Ting not to know, if he knew, he would have doubted the authenticity of this news.

For this, Qi Changrong is not surprised.

Half a moment later, Pu Ting stared at Qi Changrong tightly and asked nervously, "Is the news I gave enough to exchange for a life?" ”

"Yes. No third person will know about today's conversation between you and me, and Lone will fulfill his promise to protect your life in front of his father.

However, as for whether you can get out of Beijing safely, this is not within the scope of Lone's promise. ”

Pu Ting's face changed, and he was about to speak, when he saw Qi Changrong waving his hand, and continued: "Gu came here this time, and he was entrusted by one person, if Pu Shangshu can answer that person's question, she will do her best to ensure that you are safe from Beijing." ”

Pu Ting was stunned: "Who is that person?" ”

"Lonely's aunt, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

After many years, it seems like a world away.

Hearing who this person was, Pu Ting opened his mouth, and the magic light was dazed: "What does the eldest princess want to know from me?" ”

"You are the old man of Chengwang, and my aunt wants to know if her husband, Yao Zhao, the general of the Junmen, died of Chengwang's fault?"

Pu Ting's face changed suddenly, and he lost his voice almost instantly.

Qi Changrong sensed his surprise, and said as if unintentionally: "Lone is not interested in the things of many years ago, but unfortunately this is my aunt's heart knot for many years, Lone has to ask, Pu Shangshu should be able to distinguish between an old thing many years ago and your life, which is more important." ”

"Cheng Wang ......" Under the fright, Pu Ting finally found his voice and said in a trembling voice: "...... It's the fault of becoming a king. ”

"Oh? Since you have said it, Pu Shangshu had better make it clearer, so that you can talk back to your aunt in exchange for her protection of you. ”

"Ten years ago, the war broke out in Liangzhou, and the barbarians of the small tribe sought revenge...... Junmen was embattled, and King Cheng was ordered to lead 60,000 soldiers to Liangzhou to support...... On the way, King Cheng deliberately slowed down...... By the time they reached the city, the king's gate had already perished with the thieves......"

Qi Changrong's nails sank into the palm of his hand, but his face did not move: "Listening to Pu Shangshu's meaning, it is because King Cheng deliberately delayed that it would cause the Junmen to be almost destroyed?" ”

Pu Ting closed his eyes and refused to say anything more.

Qi Changrong asked again: "Then afterwards, why was Junmen not only not posthumously buried, but even humiliated by the slaughter of the city because of the unfavorable defense of the city?" ”

"Your Majesty...... Eccentric to become a king, unwilling to become a king because of his selfishness to be accused by all the people, to the royal family, so he handed over the work of the monarch to him......"

"So, the head coach of the monarch didn't make a wrong judgment and bury a city, but the reserve force didn't keep up?"

When the words came to his lips, he couldn't say the word 'yes' for a short time.

"King Cheng deliberately delayed, why did he deliberately delay?"

"King Cheng has a big heart, but he is narrow-minded, on the surface he is friendly with the monarch, but secretly he has been on guard many times. I only heard that King Cheng was worried that the Jun family would be highly meritorious, and I didn't know anything about the rest.

If His Royal Highness wants to know more, Jiang Bowen was a close confidant of King Cheng at that time, and if His Royal Highness can get words out of his mouth, everything can be revealed. ”

Jiang Bowen?

Qi Changrong pursed her lips, she didn't intend to waste her efforts on this person.

It is not important why King Cheng framed the king, what matters is that the sinner is King Cheng.

Pu Ting is an old man who became a king, and although he knows very little about it, what can be found is enough to overturn the case.

As for Jiang Bowen, the mere fact that he was a confidant of King Cheng does not prove anything.

Not only can it not be brought down in one fell swoop, but it will also startle the snake in advance, which is useless.

She is not in a hurry, there are more serious charges waiting for him later.

That's pretty much the same thing I've asked.

There is no point in asking any further.

Qi Changrong took out the prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone from his sleeve and put it on Pu Ting's face, she lowered her eyebrows, and Pu Ting couldn't see her joy and anger.

"Write down what you know word for word, and there must be no half of a sentence to conceal and deceive, after you write, you will take it to the eldest princess to give it to the eldest princess."

Pu Ting looked dejected.

Now, what is the need to hide it?

He picked up the pen with trembling hands and wrote down the truth word by word.

A whole page was written, densely packed.

After he finished writing, Qi Changrong folded it back into his sleeve and stood up with one hand.

When he walked to the door of the cell, Qi Changrong suddenly stopped and asked in a low voice: "When I dreamed back at midnight, did Pu Shangshu see the Jun family in a dream?" If they did, did they have grievances in their eyes and blood on their faces? ”

"Pu Shangshu, after so many years, have you ever regretted your original aiding and abusing for a moment?"

"No regrets." Pu Ting turned around and turned his back to Qi Changrong, as if he had aged dozens of years in an instant, and his voice was full of vicissitudes: "If there was no original thing, there would be no glory and wealth of the Pu family for decades, give me another chance...... I'm still going to make the same choices I made back then. ”

will follow the holy will and close his mouth, and will also bury the truth to preserve the reputation of the old master.

Unrepentant, just for ...... Soaring.

For many years, when he tossed and turned on his bed and couldn't sleep, he would be afraid, he would be afraid, and the only thing he wouldn't do was regret.

Qi Changrong's eyes were full of compassion, disappointed and resentful to the extreme, she was calmer than she imagined.

In the face of the people who contributed to the troubles many years ago, she can also cope with it with her heart.

She raised her feet and left, and her voice came into Pu Ting's ears far away: "The next thing will be as Pu Shangshu wishes." ”
