Chapter 132: Poisoned Wine
~Date: ~November 06~
"After I rescued Shen Yunyang at that time, I didn't leave the Heavenly Kingdom with her immediately." Ye Zixuan's eyes miserably recalled the past, and he talked to Shen Yunyou about his past in a casual tone. "At that time, I had already been kicked out of the palace, if I hadn't met Bai Moyan, maybe Shen Yunyang wouldn't have survived now, it was Bai Moyan who helped save Shen Yunyang."
"Then what has Shen Yunyang been doing in Longming Country all these years? Do things for you? Shen Yunyou tilted his head and asked, a little curious about how Ye Zixuan got in touch with the people on Long Mingguo's side. How did she get to the country of Longming? ”
"Shen Yunyang's life is much better than yours." Ye Zixuan smiled when he heard Shen Yunyou ask. "Shen Yunyang is the righteous daughter of General Long Mingguo, and she is the county lord who can enter and leave the palace at will. I'm just sending some people around her to prevent her from coming back to me. Back then, it was the emperor of Long Mingguo who took the initiative to send someone to the capital to find me, my mother was his sister, the only sister, he learned the news of my mother's death, naturally he didn't believe it, so he secretly sent someone to investigate. ”
The emperor of Long Mingguo is the elder brother of Yezixuan, in other words, that is Yezixuan's uncle.
Shen Yunyou quickly thought about Ye Zixuan's identity in his mind, and then pouted, after all, Ye Zixuan is still a relative of the emperor. No wonder he always has an oppressive aura on him, it turns out that he is innate.
Shen Yunyou and Ye Zixuan chatted for a while, and the two went to bed and fell asleep with each other. Early the next morning, Ye Zixuan and Yang Boxiang left, while Shen Yunyou continued to stay in the villa and practice martial arts with Yun Qingshan.
The days passed, and in the blink of an eye it was time to start the plan.
It was dark that day, and the General's Mansion ushered in an uninvited guest. Song Leiming looked at the person in front of him and hurriedly asked, "It's so late, I don't know if my father-in-law came on purpose, but what's the important thing?" Could it be that something happened at the border pass, and the emperor asked you to come to me? ”
"General Song is too worried." Shi Ronglongpi glanced at Song Leiming with a smile, and said in a strange manner: "The old slave is indeed here on the orders of the emperor, but for the sake of it, it is not what the general said. ”
"Then ......" Song Leiming was a little uneasy ♀ when he heard Shi Ronglong say this, is it late Shi Ronglong came alone, what is it for?
"General Song, your Song family has been in the past few years, how many generals have there been in total, do you remember?" Shi Ronglong sat on the chair, holding the holy decree in his arms, and asked.
"Back to my father-in-law, the ancestors of the Song family have been loyal to the country for generations, and there have been ten generals so far, and the dog Song Lingfeng is the tenth." Song Leiming didn't understand what Shi Ronglong's purpose was in asking this.
"Tut-tut." Shi Ronglong shook his head with emotion, and looked at Song Leiming with pity. Then he sighed heavily, stood up, handed the holy decree in his arms to Song Leiming, and said: "General Song, the old slave will not go around in circles with you, ♀ it was the emperor who asked the old slave to hand it over to you, and this is also given to you." After you read it, you will understand. ”
After speaking, Shi Ronglong took out another thing from his sleeve and put it in the hand of Song Leiming, who was kneeling on the ground to receive the order.
"The merits of your Song family, the emperor said, he will never forget it in his life. But since the kingdom of prayer has changed dynasties, some things have to change. General Song, what do you say? Shi Ronglong glanced at Song Leiming meaningfully, and continued: "It's not too early, the emperor is still waiting for the old slave to go back." General Song, that's all I have to say, go first, don't let down the emperor's expectations of you. ”
After Shi Ronglong left, Song Leiming was still kneeling on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. Looking at the holy decree in his hand and the white porcelain vase, Song Leiming's heart felt inexplicably uneasy. And this kind of uneasiness, after Song Leiming opened the holy decree and read the above content, instantly turned into despair.
His hands trembled slightly, and it took a long time for Song Leiming to slowly stand up, walk to the chair step by step and sit down, looking at the words on the holy decree with blank eyes, without saying a word.
Not long after the new emperor ascended the throne, he even thought about eradicating the power of their Song family in the imperial court. For what?
The new emperor succeeded to the throne, and it is indeed a matter of existence to get rid of the heroes who assisted the previous emperor, but now that the emperor is not dead, how can the emperor dare to do such a thing? And in the past few years, the relationship between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Long Ming has been unstable, and now the frontier is often in an emergency, Song Lingfeng was just sent to the frontier by the emperor two days ago, but now, the emperor wants to take his own life.
Song Leiming clenched his fists, his joints white. Eating with a gentleman is like a tiger, and he realized the meaning of these words today! The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers can't help but die. What else can he do now besides drinking the poisoned wine rewarded by the emperor?
Song Leiming has been taught since he was a child to serve the country wholeheartedly, to assist the emperor wholeheartedly, and to dedicate himself to praying for the peace of the country and the people of heaven. So even after he saw the holy decree issued by Situ Rui, he didn't have the slightest idea of disrespecting the decree and running for his life. He just felt heartbroken and felt unfair. has been on the battlefield for decades and has won countless battles, but in the end, it still ended up like this......
The only thing that can make Song Leiming feel relieved now is that Song Lingfeng is not at home. The emperor sent him to the border pass, did he deliberately want to let Feng'er live, or did he have other plans?
Song Leiming had no sleep all night, and he had been sitting on a chair with a lot of thoughts. But the sky gradually brightened, and when Song Leiming had to accept the reality, he still made a decision.
Throwing the holy decree at his feet, Song Leiming suddenly opened the white porcelain bottle and drank all the poisonous wine inside! Turning his head to look out of the door with a dull gaze, Song Leiming only felt that this night was too short......
For the whole night, Song Leiming did not go out of the room, and Yang Boxiang, who was disguised as Shi Ronglong outside, also stayed all night. When it was dawn, it was almost time to go to the morning court, but when Song Leiming still didn't come out of the house, Yang Boxiang cautiously appeared, arrived at the door, and looked at the scene in the house along the crack in the door.
Song Leiming, who collapsed to the ground, made Yang Boxiang laugh playfully, he originally planned to kill Song Leiming directly if he disobeyed the order. Unexpectedly, this Song Leiming was so obedient.
Yang Boxiang entered the room, took the holy decree on the ground in his arms, and left directly. By the time the news of Song Leiming's death reached Situ Rui's ears, it was already after noon.
Situ Rui was too busy with government affairs, so he finally found some time to eat with Shen Yunyang. I didn't expect to hear such news during dinner.
Situ Rui put down the chopsticks in his hand, didn't say anything, and strode away with Situ Nan Yun Yang looked at the backs of the two, and threw down the chopsticks in his hand boringly.
"Brother Huang, this matter is not trivial, if the news of General Song's death comes out, it will definitely cause panic among others." Situ Nan said with a serious expression and said to Situ Rui.
"I know." Situ Yue nodded lightly and made a decision immediately. "You go to the General's Mansion and bring his body back to me, and then kill all the people in the General's Mansion who know about this matter, and not a single one is allowed to stay alive. Before the cause of Song Leiming's death was investigated, if anyone wanted to ask about his whereabouts, they would say that I had sent him out of the city on errands. ”
Situ Rui made a reckless decision, but he never thought that there was no impermeable wall in the world. He can kill one person from the Song Mansion, two people from the Song Mansion, and all the people from the Song Mansion, but there is no way to prevent this matter from being known by others.
Situ Nan personally went to the General's Mansion and carried out Situ Rui's order. After bringing Song Leiming's body to the former Dangfu and where Situ Nan now lives, Situ Nan waited for Situ Rui to come with a frown.
After Situ Rui finished dealing with the matter at hand, he immediately went to the Bell Mansion. Looking at Song Leiming lying on the ground with a cold expression, Situ Rui frowned and asked, "What's going on, have you found out?" ”
"I only know that he died of poisoning by drinking poisonous wine, and the reason is not clear."
Situ Rui listened to Situ Nan's words and slammed his fist on the table. As soon as Song Leiming died, the Kingdom of Heaven would undoubtedly lose one general. What happened to Song Leiming that he couldn't think about it so much, and wanted to drink poisoned wine to kill himself?
"Brother Huang, what do you think you should do about this?" Situ Nan saw that Situ Rui had been silent, so he had to take the initiative to ask.
"Don't reveal this news for the time being, Song Lingfeng is at the border now, if he knows about it, it will definitely affect him→ Mingguo's side may not be able to do it at any time, Song Lingfeng is indispensable."
"The Song family is not only Song Lingfeng, a fierce general, don't forget that Song Leiyi is not a person who can be deceived so easily."
Situ Nan mentioned Song Leiyi, which made Situ Rui suddenly have a headache. Song Leiyi, Song Leiming's younger brother, has always been Song Leiming's deputy general. Song Leiming has been on the expedition for so many years, and he will definitely take Song Leiyi with him every time, and the relationship between the two brothers is very good. And Song Leiyi and Song Leiming's temperament are completely different, Song Leiyi's fiery temper is so big that ordinary people don't expect it. He only listened to his brother, for so many years, without exception. When Situ Rui had not yet sat on the throne and was still the grandfather, he had heard more than once that Song Leiyi contradicted the then emperor Situ Yiyun and openly quarreled with Situ Yiyun in the main hall.
If Song Leiming's death was known to Song Leiyi, he would inevitably make a big fuss. What will happen at that time, Situ Rui dare not imagine.
Situ Rui let out a long sigh and sat down on the chair dejectedly. Leaning back in the chair, Situ Rui's eyes flashed. After thinking about it, Situ Rui still decided to go back to the palace first, tell Liu Xinru about this matter, and ask her to help think of a way.
