Chapter 168: The Culprit
"Yue'er, it's going to be fine, it's going to be fine...... Huang Fuchen patted Shangguan Jiyue's back and comforted, "Now that the evil person has been caught, he will be beheaded on the next day, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the people who died in vain." ”
Shangguan Jiyue was stunned: "Caught?!" Who is it?! ”
"You know this person, too."
"I know that too?"
"Yes."
Shangguan Jiyue pondered for a while, and then affirmed: "It's the former Taishou Lord - Qian Yu!" ”
In this Jiangzhong realm, there are very few people she knows, if she knows this person and has a motive to do evil, it must be him.
"That's right, it's him!"
"He has obviously surrendered, even if he did a lot of evil in the past, but you just dismissed him from his official position and did not hurt his life, why did he blow up the river embankment, isn't he afraid of harming his family?"
"Family?" Huang Fuchen sneered, "Except for a few concubines and a group of domestic servants in his mansion, the rest of the people have already quietly moved before we have attacked Jiangzhong. ”
Shangguan Jiyue's eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean he has been prepared for a long time?" Tou Cheng is just his cover-up, and his real purpose is to let the disaster of the Lanjiang River drag down our army? ”
"That's not going to happen, no matter whether he surrenders or not, he will definitely not be able to defend the land in the middle of the river. Qian Yu is treacherous, but he is greedy for life and afraid of death, he knows that blowing up the Lanjiang embankment is a dead end, but he still does it. I'm afraid that this matter is not as simple as it seems, and there must be secrets hidden that we don't know. ”
"What is it that can make a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death want to die and blow up the river embankment?"
"This king is also puzzled, since he has already let him live, why does he still touch the knife edge?"
Shangguan Jiyue pondered carefully, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind: "I understand!" It must be because of his family! Someone must have kidnapped his family in advance and forced him to exchange his own life for the lives of his entire family! ”
Huangfu Chen's body was shocked: "If it is really as Yue'er said, then this person has long expected that the land in the middle of the river will not be able to be saved, and he will let Qian Yu stay to create such a disaster?" And the real purpose of this person is to let our 200,000 troops die in the disaster of the Lanjiang River without spending a single soldier. ”
"Even if this is not successful, due to the hot weather, the corpses will decompose, and it will definitely cause a plague, and there will be no possibility of going south! And the land in the middle of the river is surrounded by mountains, even if the plague is rampant, it will never affect the boundaries outside the middle of the river, let alone infect their capital Pingyang. ”
"I didn't expect Situ Rui to be so thoughtful and vicious, and completely regarded the people in the river as their stepping stones!" When Huang Fuchen heard this, he felt anger in his chest, and slapped his palm on the edge of the table beside him, "If his treacherous plan succeeds, then even those who survive will only have a dead end, and at that time, the entire land in the river will become a hell on earth full of corpses and bones!" ”
Shangguan Jiyue smiled coldly: "With Situ Rui, I'm afraid that he doesn't have such a deep city, I'm afraid that someone is giving him advice in the dark, and this person is a real poisonous snake!" ”
"The man behind it? Why did Yue'er say that? ”
When his father was still alive, he once said that Situ Rui had a tyrannical temperament, lewd and drunk, but he had no great talent, and such a style of planning and then acting was not his style at all. Today's Lanjiang disaster is exactly the same as the fake prince of the Liuguo Kingdom that day, with the same vicious mind and careful layout, he can find a killer who looks exactly like Chu Zijie and cultivate it, which cannot be completed overnight. If he wants, he can take the world to become his victim without hesitation. Therefore, this person hiding in the shadows is the most terrifying person! ”
"If Nan Chi really has such a figure, then why is Nan Chi's army still losing and retreating?"
Shangguan Jiyue frowned slightly, and shook her head weakly: "I don't understand this matter, if this person really exists, he is so cruel to the people of Nanchi, which shows that he hates Nanchi, and he can't wait for Nanchi to die immediately, but for some reason, he has to protect Nanchi and prevent it from perishing." His heart is very conflicted, and this contradictory psychology makes him cruel and unkind, and he doesn't care whether the world is ruined or not. This may sound ridiculous, but it does seem to me, and maybe I'm overthinking it. ”
"Yue'er, when you say this, this king is really a little worried." Huang Fuchen looked worried, "If our ultimate enemy is this person, then this person will definitely do anything, and at that time, wouldn't you be very dangerous?" ”
"It's not that I'm dangerous, it's that we're all dangerous! The so-called open gun is easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, this person is in the dark, we are in the light, and we don't know anything about the identity and purpose of this person, and I don't even know whether he is a man or a woman, this is the most difficult problem. ”
"Yue'er, why don't you go back to Jian'an. When I attack Pingyang City and capture that Situ Rui alive, you will come back and avenge this sea of blood with your own hands, okay? Huangfu Chen suddenly hugged Shangguan Jiyue tightly in his arms, and coaxed softly like a child.
When Shangguan Jiyue heard this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Huangfu Chen, what are you talking about?!" How can I go back to Jian'an and enjoy it by myself? If that's the case, how can I be worthy of the heroic soul of my Shangguan who died in vain? ”
"Yue'er, but I don't want you to take risks, you know?"
"Daoshan and Huohai, you will accompany me, won't you?"
Huang Fuchen did not hesitate at all: "Yes, this king will always accompany you." ”
Shangguan Jiyue reached out and hugged Huangfu Chen's waist and gently pillowed on his shoulder: "So, I'm not afraid." ”
At this moment, Feige's voice sounded outside the tent: "Your Highness, General Qi!" ”
Shangguan Jiyue was stunned for a moment, and immediately let go of Huangfu Chen, like a child who had done something wrong, blushed his cheeks, and distanced himself from him. Secretly glad, fortunately it was Feige who came, if Liuxia and Moyi had come, they would have broken in directly.
Huang Fuchen looked at Shangguan Jiyue's shy face, not only smiled and shook his head. The two of them don't know how many times they have kissed, why is his Yue'er still so easily shy, so that he has to take the initiative to courtship like a hungry wolf who wants to be dissatisfied every time. Otherwise, he dared to guarantee that if he didn't take the initiative, this little woman would never take the initiative first.
Thinking like this in his heart, Feige outside the tent didn't seem to have received a response for a long time, and couldn't help but speak again: "Your Highness, General Qi, Feige has something to report." ”
When Shangguan Jiyue heard this, her little face turned even redder with shame, and while the hair scattered on her cheeks was brushed behind her ears, she motioned to Huang Fuchen to speak quickly with her eyes.
"Come in!" Huangfu Chen said coldly.
Feige entered in response, bowed in the tent, and said: "Your Highness, General Qi, that Qian Yu can't ask a word, the young general and Mo Yi and Liu Xia have also beaten and scolded, but it is still useless." ”
Huang Fuchen sneered: "The three of them didn't pry open one of Qian Yu's mouths, it seems that this Qian Yu is not going to speak." ”
"That's not necessarily, I want to see what can make this person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and who is not even afraid of death to defend it!" Shangguan Jiyue said.
"Yue'er, the young general and Mo Yi, and what kind of person Liuxia is, don't you still know? Even the three of them can't be tried, why do you bother with this matter Yue'er? ”
Shangguan Jiyue looked at Huangfu Chen and smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when you arrive." The guy behind him, I'm going to dig him out! ”
