Chapter 246: There are ghosts in ghosts, and there are ghosts within them
I quickly put down the teacup and stood up: "Ah, that...... I agree with the Marquis. ”
"Hehe, I didn't say anything, I just stated the facts." Zheng Chenxi unceremoniously scolded me back, saying that she didn't carry this pot.
My face was slightly red, and I cleared my throat: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, to be honest, I don't think I'm qualified to participate in such an important meeting, let alone make any suggestions, but since Your Majesty has asked me, then I will talk about my opinion, and if there is anything inappropriate, please forgive Your Majesty." ”
Lord Yama smiled again and nodded at me with his hand: "You young man is very humble and polite, which is very rare." Chen Aiqing said that it doesn't matter, whether it's right or wrong, I won't blame you. ”
"Your Majesty," I thought for a moment, "I thought that the matter had come to this point, and neither war nor peace was advisable. ”
"Oh? Why? Lord Yama frowned, leaning a little towards me, looking like he was listening carefully.
"The fighter plane has been lost, and I heard from the palace that my main force has been besieged by the enemy's heavy troops, although the trapped beasts are still fighting, the courage is commendable, or they can fight to the death, but they can't change the outcome, and it will only increase the senseless casualties, so Weichen feels that it is not advisable to fight."
"Commander Chen, if you say this, I'm afraid you look down on the combat capability of our palace army, right?" A mediocre-looking Wenchen said in a strange manner, "Isn't this to increase the enemy's morale and destroy his own prestige?" If these words reach the army, I am afraid that the morale of the army will be damaged, and you will be responsible for the self-defeat without a fight? ”
"Then you mean to fight to the death?" I asked the Wenchen with a smile.
Zheng Chenxi whispered beside me: "Wang Situ of the Development and Reform Department." ”
"Hehe, if you fight, you will fight to the death, if you make peace, it is a complete surrender, only these two ways! Commander Chen just said that war and peace are not advisable? Is there a third way? Wang Situ said impassionedly, like a general.
"Then Wang Situ, what do you mean?" I asked rhetorically.
Wang Situ opened his mouth, paused, as if he had changed his words, and said to Lord Yan: "Although there is something inappropriate in Commander Chen's words, what he said just now is deeply believed by Wei Chen. ”
"Which one?" Lord Yama asked calmly without being angry or angry.
"The fighter plane has been lost, Your Majesty ......"
"Then Wang Situ means to seek peace?" I asked.
Wang Situ ignored me, but still looked at Lord Yama: "Please think twice, Your Majesty." ”
Wang Situ obviously wanted to surrender, but he just didn't say it, and quoted my words, as if the proposal to make peace was made by me, even if Lord Yama blamed him, he couldn't blame him, this old fox is really not a thing, phew, scumbag!
"Commander Chen, I'm done," Wang Situ seemed satisfied with his performance, and turned to me again, "Please continue your performance." ”
"Wang Situ, you can sue for peace," I raised my voice, and stretched out my hand, pointing to the ministers, "You can all sue for peace, and even to put it mildly, it's not to ask for peace, but to surrender, if you surrender, you will still have official positions, glory and wealth, but——"
I pointed to Lord Yan again, and when I finished pointing, I quickly put down my hand and softened my tone: "Your Majesty, you can't surrender, if you surrender, the entire royal family of the Qin Guang Palace will be a dead end, I estimate that not only the members of the royal family, but even the Marquis of Zheng Palace will be difficult to pardon." ”
"Why?" Lord Yama asked with squinted eyes.
"Because Emperor Song is an unrighteous act, no matter whether she succeeds or fails, she is very weak-hearted, and people with weak hearts will definitely do things with weak hearts, she understands a truth - cutting grass does not remove roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again - Your Majesty, what do you think?" I said softly.
"Evil words confuse the public, a bunch of nonsense!" Without waiting for Lord Yan to speak, Wang Situ was furious.
I turned around, Wang Situ lifted the "skirt" of his robe, walked over to me tremblingly, pointed at my nose and scolded: "Commander Chen, this is all your people from the Yang Realm, with the heart of a villain in the belly of a gentleman, how can the people in our underworld, especially the Ten Palaces of Yama, be so insidious and cunning?" In my opinion, you are a spy sent by the Yang Realm to stir up relations between our various halls! ”
"In my opinion, you can't hide your fox tail, right?" I imitated Wang Situ's voice and chuckled, "If Song Xinyun is not a sinister and cunning person, how can he do such a rebellious thing as usurping the dynasty and seeking the throne?" If Wang Situ thinks that Song Xinyun's rebellion is a gentleman's righteous act, then wouldn't our Majesty become a senseless king?! ”
"You, you! I—I didn't say it! Your Majesty is wise, and the world knows it! Wang Situ's face turned red from my scolding.
"Come on, take down Wang Situ, a traitor, and kill him!" Zheng Chenxi suddenly snorted, and immediately came in from outside the hall with two golden armor guards, holding ropes in their hands, as if they had been prepared.
"Zheng Dianhou! Why are you arresting me? Wang Situ straightened his waist and pointed at Zheng Chenxi angrily, his momentum was not weak, but his tone was a little weak.
"Hehe," Zheng Chenxi sneered, "Do you think that Song Xinyun sent someone to secretly send you 100 million dark coins, Ben Hou doesn't know?" ”
100 million dark coins, I was taken aback at first, this Song Xinyun really spent money in order to win over the ministers of the previous dynasty, but I quickly reacted, the exchange rate of the dark currency is very low, 100 million dark coins are only equivalent to one million yuan, so calculated, that Song Xinyun is a little too picky, Wang Situ is also a good cloth level, let him be a traitor, only give one million? The Yang Realm's Zhengbu-level bribes are far more than that.
"Zheng Dianhou, you don't want to spew blood!" Wang Situ said in a trembling voice, his legs were weak, and he was trembling, obviously making a final struggle.
"Steward Li, should you come out?" Zheng Chenxi looked at the entrance of the hall.
A mustache in cloth clothes came in from outside, knelt down with a hunched body, and said humbly: "Your Majesty, Lord Hou, the little one is the housekeeper of Wang Situ's family, surnamed Li, last night, when we were still in the imperial city, an envoy who claimed to be the palace of Emperor Song came to my lord's mansion and gave the lord a check of 100 million coins, and the lord accepted it. ”
Steward Li's lines are very slippery, which means that he has been prepared for a long time - but there is one thing that makes me very confused.
When Wang Situ saw that the matter was revealed, he knelt on the ground in despair, stunned.
"Drag it out! Kill it! Zheng Chenxi said sharply.
"Wait." I saw that Lord Yan didn't express his position, and shouted boldly.
"Commander Chen, do you want to be gracious to this traitor?" Zheng Chenxi frowned at me, and his tone was stern, which clearly meant that I should not stop her from "killing chickens and making an example of monkeys" this time.
I smiled and turned to Lord Yama: "Your Majesty, Wang Situ only collected the money last night, and at that time, it is estimated that Emperor Song's army is about to enter the imperial city, right?" ”
Lord Yama nodded slightly.
"If the expectation is good," I turned to the ministers, "among you, have any of you also received this money from Song Xinyun?" ”
The ministers were silent, you look at me, I look at you, with panicked expressions, they have answered my question.
"Your Majesty!" I bowed my hand to Lord Yama again, "Weichen thinks that this is Song Xinyun's murderous heart and a plan to divide the monarch and ministers!" ”
"How so?" Zheng Chenxi asked with squinted eyes.
"If I were Song Xinyun and wanted to win over the ministers through money, the people I sent would never let the housekeeper see it, let alone let anyone know! Dare to ask Zheng Dianhou, how did you know about this? I asked Zheng Chenxi rhetorically.
"It was Steward Li who told me, is there any problem?" Zheng Chenxi asked softly, after all, she has a close relationship with me, in fact, she could not have answered me with the respect of the palace.
"The problem is with this Steward Li!" I turned around and pointed to Steward Li, "How much did you charge Song Xinyun?" Say! ”
Steward Li said that he was confused, spread his hands and smiled: "I'm just a housekeeper, why did Emperor Song send me money?" Please be aware of it. ”
At this time, Xu Er suddenly spoke: "You are lying! You're not a Steward Li at all! It's a fine work of the Song Emperor's Palace! ”
Steward Li still didn't panic, and said in a deep voice: "Master Li, you have to be responsible for what you say!" You don't know me! ”
"Hehe," Xu Er sneered, "Although I don't know you, I know that in the Imperial City, there are only a few Purple Qi beginners, and there is no you." ”
That's right, it's because of this that I suspect that this Steward Li, a little butler, how can it be purple qi?
If so, he would have been recruited into the Yin Cha Mansion as a commander.
Xu Er and I will observe qi, but the other ghosts present will not, including Zheng Chenxi, although she is black, she can't see the complexion of others.
Seeing that Steward Li's identity was revealed, his eyes rolled, and he was about to flee, there were two masters of black qi in the hall, how could he let him escape with purple qi, before he ran out of the door, a sleeve arrow shot by Zheng Chenxi and a gas bullet shot by Xu Er hit Steward Li's back one after another, and this guy died on the spot and turned into a pinch of ashes......
