Chapter 458: Capture the Palace (I)
Pan Yo is very smart, he spent money to support a stage team in the early years, and watched them set up a theater in Changsha Mansion, which was lively and prosperous every day.
Now that Mu Junwu and the others are going to have an incident, there must be a place to settle down and not be easily guessed, so naturally he took out this theater.
In the front yard, an excellent drama "Joining the Army" was played happily on the stage, and the people in the audience applauded.
Four or five little guys seemed to be running around the hall, but in fact they were vigilantly patrolling the surroundings.
And the backyard is a half-rounded courtyard, Mu Junwu took off his mask and came to the main hall, and asked Yao Yanzhang to sit down before bowing to several important ministers waiting in the hall: "Thank you for waiting here." ”
Zhang Yingju, Zhang Yanyao, and Liu Yanyao immediately returned the salute.
Only Peng Ji smiled and took two steps forward and turned around and said, "Your Highness, the time that belongs to you has come." ”
Mu Junwu looked up at Peng Yu: "What do you mean......"
"It's time for you to crusade against xenos!"
The ladder has been erected, just waiting for the master's house to ascend the stairs, but Mu Junwu blinked: "Isn't the rumor case already closed?" ”
Peng Ji immediately took out a folded confession and handed it to Mu Junwu: "Look at this." Yesterday, Yin Li Changping, the governor of Changsha Prefecture, rushed into our house in a panic and took out this confession, which is the real confession of the meticulous man. ”
Yao Yanzhang took a step forward: "The ...... posted on the city wall"
That was a confession that the king instructed him to fabricate, and ordered him to kill Na Xiao and die without proof, but Li Changping left a "Oh? Why did he run to your house to ask for help? ”
Because the king wanted to poison him, after he found out, he found that only His Royal Highness King Qi was his way out, and the little daughter of the Peng family was connected with the marriage contract of King Qi, so it ...... Come and tell the truth. ”
Yao Yanzhang felt that there was no problem after hearing this, and looked at Mu Junwu: "The confession can show that he is a different species?" ”
Mu Junwu nodded.
"Then this is famous."
"It's more than that." Zhang Yanyao said: "He killed Situ first, and then chased the royal family, not only persecuted the clan, but also hurt the hearts of the army and the people, and now it is full of anger, we have been connected in private, and everyone is looking forward to your return!" ”
But Mu Junwu still didn't speak, but Meiyu was already hesitant.
"Your Highness, the right time and place are right for you." Peng Yu stared at Mu Junwu and urged again and again.
"It seems to be there, but this confession plus human witnesses may not be able to win the trust of the world!" Mu Junwu said and put down his confession: "The evidence of the text must be chiseled. ”
Peng Yu was a little excited when he heard this: "Your Highness is too worried, since ancient times, the king has been defeated, and the winner has recorded history, and when you take back the Ma family, this confession will definitely win the trust of the world." ”
Zhang Yingju and Zhang Yanyao nodded in agreement, while Liu Yanyao took a step forward, wanting to speak, but was a little hesitant.
Seeing this, Mu Junwu took the initiative to ask: "General Liu, what do you have to say?" ”
Liu Yanyu looked at Mu Junwu and took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, I have something in my hand that can help you win the trust of the world." ”
"Oh? What? ”
Liu Yanyu looked at Mu Junwu, and then at everyone: "When I take it out, I hope everyone won't be too surprised!" ”
Liu Yanyu turned around and walked aside, opened the box he brought, took out a cloth bag and came to the table.
After the layers of wrapping faded, as soon as the old and corrupt swaddling clothes were revealed, the few onlookers around were no longer calm.
Mu Junwu didn't speak, but his hand behind his back clenched.
The last layer of cover was opened, and the weak bones of the baby were placed on the table, in plain sight.
"It's ......"
"The son of Concubine De."
"What?"
"Huh?"
In a stunned state, Peng Yu rubbed his hands excitedly: "Where did you get this thing from General Liu?" ”
"In the palace." At that moment, Liu Yanyan retold the story that Zhao Fuchun told him, and everyone knew that this was not a rumor when they saw the swaddling clothes with gold and silver threads.
During the whole process, everyone was very excited, but Mu Junwu kept staring at the swaddling clothes and was silent.
"Regardless of whether the king is the son of a thief or not, he is an impostor, and His Highness is always right to crusade."
"Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." Peng Ji looked at Mu Junwu.
"Your Highness, it's time to make a decision." Yao Yanzhang also looked at Mu Junwu.
Mu Junwu finally spoke at this time: "This is a big deal, I can't be cautious and thoughtful, everyone, please allow me to think about it overnight, and make a final decision early tomorrow morning." ”
Peng Ji was about to speak when he heard this, but Mu Junwu raised his hand to stop: "Everyone, please go back, see you tomorrow morning." I...... There needs to be a moment of silence. ”
Mu Junwu turned around and walked out of the hall, went to the courtyard to deal with it, closed his eyes and pondered.
The excitement of the fight on the stage was faintly heard, which was no different from his state of mind at the moment.
What can a few important ministers do when they see this? After the heads and ears were exchanged, they dispersed.
After standing in the courtyard for about a quarter of an hour, Mu Junwu opened his eyes and turned back to the hall.
"Feiyun!"
"Yes."
"Now you go after Master Peng and tell him that I will go to his house and have two drinks with him in the evening."
"Yes."
After Feiyun went out, Yao Yanzhang came to him: "You still know how to stabilize him!" ”
"Sir, who is the master and who is the chess player?"
Yao Yanzhang smiled: "You are the master, he is a chess, but he is helpless now that he is powerful, you have to borrow the east wind." ”
"Not necessarily."
Yao Yanzhang was stunned: "What's the matter?" Can you still get it back without relying on him? ”
Mu Junwu said confidently: "Of course you can." ”
That night, Mu Junwu sneaked into the palace of the king of Chu in a night suit.
The high city walls couldn't stop him, the patrolling soldiers couldn't stop him, and walking in the palace where every inch of his feet was familiar, his heart was sour.
The happiness and innocence of his childhood, the help and trust of his youth, and then the inescapable responsibilities and contradictions after the crown, he seems to have seen the images of the past, and he knows more about what he wants to do in the silence tonight--- to rewrite the mountains and rivers by himself.
The poison was thrown, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were keeping vigil around the dormitory didn't even say a word, and fell asleep.
He pushed open the door of the temple and calmly entered.
The lights in the hall were dim, and the snoring of Ma Xi was long and orderly.
He followed the snoring as he walked forward, and soon he saw Ma Xisheng's sleeping position, but at the same time he also noticed the light smoke rising from the incense burner in front of the gums.
Can't sleep well and have to rely on incense?
Thinking about it, he came to the side of the tooth bed, drew the soft sword from his waist and put it on Ma Xisheng's neck.
"Second brother!"
Ma Xisheng's snoring was lost, but the person did not wake up.
"Second brother! Wake up. ”
Ma Xisheng's eyelids twitched twice, but he seemed to be unable to lift them.
Seeing this, Mu Junwu pinched his finger at Ma Xisheng's person, Ma Xisheng finally opened his eyes, he was a little distracted for a moment, and then became extremely frightened, his lips trembled: "You...... Are you a human, or a ghost? ”
Mu Junwu looked at him coldly: "What do you say? ”
