Chapter 121: A Sharp Turn
When Zhou Hongyi brought the so-called "Neiying" up, Xiangdie glanced at Luo Mingxuan quickly, but saw that the prince just squinted his eyes lightly and nodded his head invisibly, and Xiangdie calmed down.
The Neiying brought by Zhou Hongyi is indeed a person from King Jing's Mansion, and he is the bookkeeper of King Jing's Mansion, and when Xiangdie followed Bai Youlan's side, he also saw this bookkeeper a few times.
Seeing that this bookkeeper is usually cautious and behaves in a proper manner, who would have thought that he would admit that he was Princess Jing's internal response?
Just now, this bookkeeper suddenly saw Princess Jing pretending to be Xiangdie, and cried out directly, looking like he had to betray the princess, but everyone saw that he did not kneel down to worship Princess Jing in front of him, he made it clear that this Princess Jing in front of him was fake!
It's just that the crying that this person began to cry as soon as he appeared, almost attracted everyone's attention, but no one noticed that Luo Mingxuan sat up slightly, and when his hand reached out and picked up the teacup, his fingers bent slightly and flicked a few times, and a few faint traces of strong wind quickly flew out, and the target was the bookkeeper.
I saw that the bookkeeper was crying, but he suddenly paused slightly, with a slight stunnedness, and then continued to cry, but what he said afterwards made Zhou Hongyi's face change instantly!
"Lord and Princess, save the slave and the slave's family! They captured the slave's family and threatened the slave, admitting that the slave didn't know anything! ”
"Bastard!"
Zhou Hongyi saw that the situation was not right, and slapped his palm on the table with a "bang", interrupting the shouting of Mr. Bookkeeper, and then said anxiously: "Why, when I saw your accomplice, my confidence hardened, why do you want to retract your confession?" Today, King Jing is willing to protect you, and the emperor can't spare you either! ”
And the bookkeeper simply turned a deaf ear, kneeling on the ground and kept kowtowing to Luo Mingxuan and Xiangdie, no matter what Zhou Hongyi said, he just blindly begged to save his family.
Seeing this situation, General Gu's face was also difficult to look at, although he didn't know why this bookkeeper suddenly changed his words, from the beginning of admitting that he betrayed Princess Jing as a last resort, and now he is coerced to do so, but he can see that his kind of almost bloody pleading shows that what this person is saying now should be true!
Seeing Zhou Hongyi standing up and pressing towards the man step by step, General Gu also followed.
"In front of so many people, you dare to talk nonsense here, reversing right and wrong! Shut up! ”
Zhou Hongyi scolded angrily, waved his palm, and even brought up the palm wind of "huhu", seeing that this bookkeeper was about to die under Zhou Hongyi's palm, many soldiers couldn't help but look at Luo Mingxuan and Xiangdie, who had not spoken since this person appeared.
It's just that the two of them sat and stood as if they hadn't seen anything here, but Zhou Hongyi's palm didn't swing as he wished.
With a muffled "bang", Zhou Hongyi's palm full of strength was stopped by General Gu.
"General Gu, you ......"
"Lord Zhou, please don't be impatient, let me ask him a few words, and then deal with this person, so as not to make people misunderstand that Lord Zhou is going to kill people!"
General Gu smiled on his face, but the strength in his hand did not relax for half a minute, but instead clenched Zhou Hongyi's wrist and slowly pushed it upward.
Zhou Hongyi used several downward efforts, but was defused by General Gu, seeing that he could not kill this bookkeeper under the palm of his hand, Zhou Hongyi withdrew his hand with an extremely ugly face, and glared at the bookkeeper with a gloomy gaze.
The bookkeeper was glared at by him, and he immediately trembled, and kowtowed unsmoothly.
General Gu moved a few steps, blocking Zhou Hongyi's gaze, and then lowered his head and said to Mr. Bookkeeper: "I have a few words to ask you, you must answer truthfully." ”
"General Gu, the minion will definitely answer like this, but I beg the general to save the minion's family!"
"Well, if you tell the truth, I will definitely help you save your family, but if you dare to tell half a lie, you will die, and your family will not survive!"
The bookkeeper kowtowed: "Yes, yes!" ”
"What you just said means that you only admitted that you were guilty because your family was arrested and coerced into having to do so, right?"
"Yes, General Gu, please save them, the minion's child is not yet a year old!"
"So, what did you say before you betrayed Princess Jing, what's going on?"
"The slave doesn't know, what is the internal response, what is revealed, the slave doesn't know at all, it is they who tell me to say this, if the slave does not say so, he will kill my child immediately."
General Gu's eyes showed a contemplative light, and finally asked, "Who are they?" ”
At this time, General Gu's full attention was on this bookkeeper, and he turned his back to Luo Mingxuan and the others, and he didn't notice it at all, Luo Mingxuan opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes burst out with extremely bright light, looking at the roof behind Mr. Bookkeeper!
"Yes...... Yes! ”
This bookkeeper just spit out a word, followed by a terrible scream, a feather arrow was inserted straight from the back, from the front chest, and the bookkeeper died tragically on the spot!
General Gu didn't expect such a change to happen, and when he reacted, the bookkeeper had lost all his life. It's just that before General Gu could say anything, Zhou Hongyi had a seizure first.
"Lord Jing, you actually sent someone to kill people!"
Hearing this, Luo Mingxuan glanced at Zhou Hongyi lightly, if he was not mistaken, he pretended to be angry before, waved his hand vigorously, and then the feather arrow shot out.
This Zhou Hongyi came really prepared for this time, he didn't expect that he would actually ambush people there, and Ben Lei and they didn't notice it at all!
I'm afraid that the person who shot is likely to be really a soldier at the border pass, and Hongyi's energy this week is really not small, it seems that he is really underestimated.
It's just that Luo Mingxuan thought so, but there was a mocking smile on his lips.
If the handwriting doesn't make sense, he said that he was looking for someone to write for him, and he came up with something inside, but it's a pity that he arranged a good move, but he was defeated by Bai Youlan's little poison.
Bai Youlan forced Drizzle and the others to tell the truth, but she didn't say anything more after that, but when she asked Drizzle to pass the message, she brought a small poison prescription to Luo Mingxuan.
The poison made cannot poison people, but it can make people tell the truth uncontrollably after being poisoned, which is similar to the poison that Bai Youlan used on Breeze, but the effect is more rapid.
The reason why this bookkeeper just now, who only cried a few times and turned his words forward, was because he was hit by the poison that popped out of Luo Mingxuan's hand.
Where could Zhou Hongyi think of this change, but he still said aggressively: "Is Lord Jing speechless? The entire border pass is controlled by the prince's subordinates, who can kill people in such a situation, who is not the prince's person! ”
General Gu on the side couldn't listen to it anymore, so he raised his voice and shouted, "Lord Zhou! What this person said was when it was beneficial to King Jing and Princess Jing, how could King Jing be stupid enough to kill people at this time! ”
"Then you can't say that, the people you and I brought are all crawling here, except for the people of King Jing, who else can move and kill?"
"You ......"
General Gu is also angry, he can see that this Zhou Hongyi was ordered by the emperor to come to find out whether the rumors are true, he is simply here to fall into the well and put Princess Jing to death!
"Why does General Gu have a war of words with others?"
Luo Mingxuan, who had been silent, suddenly stood up and said, "Lord Zhou, don't be in a hurry to make a conclusion. ”
As he spoke, Luo Mingxuan raised his right hand slightly, and the surrounding soldiers all brushed out of the way, and the group walked out in the eyes of everyone.
is the first person, all the soldiers at the border pass know him, and Zhou Hongyi and General Gu are no strangers to him, General Gu once fought side by side with him and defended the border together for several years!
And Zhou Hongyi is even more familiar, because that person is related to him and is his own uncle, if you really talk about it, Duan Wang Ye will call him uncle and grandfather!
When he saw this person clearly, Zhou Hongyi was also shocked and shouted: "Uncle! Why are you here? ”
This uncle and grandfather walked vigorously, and when he heard Zhou Hongyi's words, he didn't stop, walked straight to Luo Mingxuan, and saluted Luo Mingxuan with a very standard soldier's attitude, turned around and saluted Xiangdie, and said, "I've seen Princess Jing." ”
Zhou Hongyi was already dumbfounded, his uncle was actually not a few years older than him, and he had never relied on the power of his family, but he fought on the battlefield step by step, and the credit of the killing, the glory and wealth of the killing!
And this uncle's temperament is very upright, and he doesn't give face to anyone, and he can't listen to anyone's words! The emperor once personally commended him and greatly appreciated his upright temperament.
Before, I heard that my uncle was far away in the southwest frontier and was not at the border where he was fighting, but why did he suddenly come out, and looking at his attitude, it seemed that the situation was a little bad.
Sure enough, after the uncle finished saluting one by one, he turned his head to look at Zhou Hongyi and said, "You still recognize me as an uncle?" Then do you know that your uncle's life was saved by Princess Jing! Do you know how many soldiers were rescued by Princess Jing at the border pass! ”
Zhou Hongyi said a little deflated: "That doesn't prove that Princess Jing is real." ”
"Not bad!"
The uncle simply replied: "This alone really can't prove the authenticity of Princess Jing, but I have my own way to prove Princess Jing's identity!" ”
