Chapter 264 Ignorant child
Qin Xufei looked at Liu Heng with a pleading meaning in his eyes: "There, there are several princes' children, the youngest two, one is only one year old, and the other is only two and a half years old......
Liu Heng was silent.
"Ah Heng, there are eight children in there."
Qin Xufei's voice gradually became softer. "The other six, all of them are already sensible. They know who they are, and they see things they shouldn't see, I ...... But ......"
Qin Xufei gritted his teeth, he couldn't speak for a while, he finally closed his eyes, and opened them again.
"But these two little ones are not at all ignorant, and they will not remember all this. I...... You call me stupid or naΓ―ve, Ah Heng, I know that I will inevitably kill women and children and hurt innocent people, but these two children are really too young. Moreover, that person is also my brother after all, and if I can, I always want to leave a blood line for him. β
Qin Xufei's voice was low: "But I know that if you don't agree, I can't save anyone." β
Things have come to this point, since Liu Heng and below, all Qin Xufei's subordinates are no longer simply Qin Xufei's subordinates, but a group with Qin Xufei's interests. Everyone's life and death, honor and disgrace are all tied to the success or failure of Qin Xufei alone, so they will not allow any hidden dangers that may shake Qin Xufei's status.
Since everyone joined forces, they could force Qin Xufei to agree to Liu Heng to lead the troops into Beijing, and Qin Xufei could only escape quietly with the help of Fang Qingchen. Then, even if Qin Xufei wants to save those two children now, as long as everyone doesn't agree, he has no choice.
It is impossible for him to turn against so many brothers who have gone through life and death hardships with him for the sake of Qin Wangdi's two grandsons, even if he secretly sends the children out, his subordinates can find out together. Naturally, there is a way to make these two children die silently, and it is impossible for Qin Xufei to investigate it afterwards.
Therefore, at this moment, all he could do was to ask for Liu Heng's understanding and help.
Two toddlers who are completely ignorant. Can't you really give them a chance to live?
Liu Heng hesitated.
He asked himself if he was not a good person for a long time, when he was in the Chu State, how could he not suppress and kill the people, and now in the Qin State, in order to consolidate Qin Xufei's power, he has already repeatedly killed people. There are not many innocent souls under his command.
It's just that he still can't bear to attack two such young children.
However, after a while, Liu Heng finally shook his head and sighed lightly: "They are hidden dangers after all." β
"But not all hidden dangers will turn into disasters, and not all hidden dangers will eventually be unmanageable." Qin Xufei clenched his fists, but still refused to give up: "It is contained in the history books. Not everyone kills their political opponents, and there are no adult children who can save their lives. But times have changed. People are fickle, and the so-called decades later, the sons of political enemies are still in trouble again, and they come back to take revenge, where have there been a few incidents? It's just some legendary story. β
"But ......"
"Ah Heng!" Qin Xufei looked back and pointed at Zichen Palace: "Those eight children." But as long as you know a little bit about personnel. I vaguely remembered who my parents were, but I didn't pay attention to it. Only these two children are too young. I don't understand anything, I don't remember anything, I send people out from afar, leaving no trace, who can really find out their identity. β
"Ah Heng, they are still so young, not to mention that they have no chance to be discovered, and they will be supported and used to redevelop their forces, even if there is really such a thing, it will not be until twenty years later. If I were a good emperor and the country and the people would be safe, no one would be willing to follow him, and it would no longer matter who they were. If they can really gather power, it can only prove my mediocrity and incompetence, if it takes me twenty years, I can't let the people live a good life, and they are willing to pick up swords and guns and use me desperately, such a throne, what is worth our desperation to defend now? If...... If at that time, someone really wants to oppose me, then, even if there is no blood of the eldest brother left in the world, how can those people not be able to fake one. Is it really that important whether these two children are dead or alive? β
Liu Heng smiled bitterly.
Yes, no one would have thought that Qin Xufei, who should have been eager to kill everything, would sneak around and come day and night, but he was trying to keep a little blood for the person who was most sorry for him in the world, so naturally no one would go to check it, and someone would go to find it.
He didn't hold back, he wanted to keep all the children, it was already the biggest concession he could make, and he compromised everything.
And whenever Qin Xufei really decides something, Liu Heng can't let him turn back, and when he doesn't look back, it is impossible for him to stand by and watch, or go to the yang and the yin.
In the end, Liu Heng could only sigh.
"Bring the two children out. I'll take care of everything. You should never ask me where these two children are, but if this incident never happened, not only should you hide it from the world, even the generals in our army, but you should not let them know. β
His tone was not very polite, if it was arranged like this, it would be that he would pick up the child here, and kill and throw the person away as soon as he turned his head, I am afraid that Qin Xufei would not be able to know, and there was nothing he could do.
However, Qin Xufei only stared at Liu Heng for a very short period of time, and then nodded calmly: "Okay!" β
No matter under any circumstances, he never thought of doubting and guarding against Liu Heng. Even if he disagrees with his ideas, Liu Hengdi's choice will definitely be to fight to the end, and it will never be contrary to yang and yin.
Handing over the child, no longer asking about the whereabouts, and trying his best to forget all this, may be easier for Qin Xufei himself. Desperate to hope, I don't know anything, but I can't help but quietly send someone to investigate and care for me than when I always hang in my heart, which is safer and more troubleless. Qin Xufei was quiet, and then began to explain another matter: "There is one more thing, I want you to check it quietly." It's just that this matter is also extremely important, and the slightest rumor must not be leaked. β
Liu Heng saw that his expression was solemn, so he also asked solemnly: "What's the matter?" β
"I was in the palace just now, and I asked a few princes in detail, what kind of thoughts did they have, why did they ask for help from foreigners, and why, several people did almost exactly the same thing in different times?"
Liu Heng's heart sank: "What do you think ......?"
"I've always found it weird. It is natural for countries to covet the Qin State, and it is natural to wave troops to attack when there is an excuse when there is a chance, but the excuses of several countries are almost identical, everyone can take out a letter of help from the prince or the prince, all of them under the banner of helping the Qing monarch of the Qin royal family to set the world, in such a short period of time, in different people, almost the same thing happened in a concentrated manner, this coincidence is too much. β
Liu Heng took a deep breath: "Do you think someone is secretly promoting all this, but who can set up such a big situation, and what benefits can he get from it?" β
Qin Xufei smiled bitterly: "If you talk about benefits, it seems that I am the one who gets the most." β
Liu Heng frowned and said nothing. In any case, once this matter has been revealed, it cannot be left uninvestigated. There is a huge Qin country, and you can't let someone who is hidden in the shadows play in the palm of your hand. Fortunately, this game is too big and too open, so as long as you have the heart, you will definitely be able to find clues, and you will definitely have the opportunity to find out.
The princes' subordinate officials, henchmen, and several other collateral princes and their subordinates involved in them are now locked up in various parts of the palace, and everyone knows that a catastrophe is coming, and they are all thinking about how to please the new master in order to escape the catastrophe. Taking advantage of this opportunity, interrogation and investigation can always uncover some truth.
"I'll check this matter, and I will never let the news get out, wait for the matter in front of me, find time, and tell me all the content related to this matter in your conversation with several princes......"
Qin Xufei's expression was gloomy and he nodded silently.
Liu Heng asked in a low voice, "What is the matter below...... You...... Do you want to avoid it first? β
Qin Xufei reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled, and slowly shook his head.
Liu Heng took one last look at the gloomy and silent Zichen Palace, and sighed: "You go back and take the child out." β
