Chapter 257: Where is the Imperial Grandson?

In the study room of the Duke's Palace, Ah Heng's face was full of sadness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Doesn't God want to give him a little time? Before he could go out, he was blocked by Xiao Lei at the door again, and the other party brought a thing that he couldn't help but deal with.

Xiao Lei: "Ah Heng, you don't know! Those guys are so capable of escaping, every time we hang their tails, they will send a group of people to stop us desperately." After chasing them for more than 200 miles, we really surrounded them. ”

Heng: "And then, you caught them?"

Xiao Lei: "How can it be so simple? Ah Heng, you don't know, there are two old men hiding in that team, holding children in their hands and running away. The two old men looked at their gray beards and looked like they were about to enter the coffin, but their hands were very tight. I sent a thousand swords and spears in unison, and I couldn't help them at all. And they did not dare to use their crossbow arrows, for fear of hurting the children! If they had not shot their horses first, the two old men might have fled—"

Ah Heng exclaimed expressionlessly: "Brother Xiao is brave and strategic! Then, you caught them all?"

Xiao Lei: "Hey, Ah Heng, you don't know how bad that Yuan Zuo's heart is, after we caught the old man, we found out that the child in their hands was actually a fake, it was a rag doll at all, no wonder they didn't say a word--made me angry-"

Ah Heng said in his heart: That's you stupid! But Ah Heng's face still has to show a look of hatred and hatred!

Xiao Lei: "I hurriedly got on my horse and continued to chase! I chased for another hundred and ten miles before I surrounded that Yuan Zuo. That guy only had more than 100 people left at that time, and he must not be afraid in the face of dozens of times our people. I thought to myself, it looks like it's going to be a tough battle. Who knows- hey, Ah Heng, guess what?"

Ah Heng said numbly: "Then, you finally caught them this time?"

Xiao Lei clapped his hands: "Yes, it's not right! They actually dismounted and surrendered directly." Hahaha-"

Ah Heng laughed perfunctorily twice: "Brother Xiao, I don't know where those captives are?"

Xiao Lei: "I've locked them up with Dai Luona." ”

Ah Heng nodded: "Okay, I'll go meet them-"

Xiao Lei: "My lord, don't you go to see the emperor's eldest grandson first?"

Ah Heng scratched his head, and suddenly looked at Xiao Lei with some unbearability, and saw that the other party was furious in his heart, and then said slowly: "Brother Xiao, I guess - it's just a guess - most of the children you brought back are fake, and most of them were snatched by Na Yuanzuo from elsewhere." When I ask clearly, I will trouble Brother Xiao to send it back to others!"

False...... Fake?!Xiao Lei's head was knotted, he took two steps back and forth, and suddenly jumped like thunder: "I'm going to kill that bastard-"

Ah Heng nodded: "It's okay, then let's go together!"

......

The prison is already overcrowded. For Yuan Zuo, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, because he voluntarily surrendered, Xiao Lei still gave a certain amount of respect and locked him in a cell independently.

Ah Heng: "General Yuan, let's say, where is the emperor's grandson?"

Yuan Zuo: "It turned out to be the Duke, shouldn't you ask the person surnamed Xiao next to you about this?"

Xiao Lei snorted coldly, his teeth itching with hatred!

Ah Heng: "General Yuan, we entered the city to support the royal family. Today's members of the royal family are respected by the emperor's grandson and His Royal Highness Ye Yuan, who is in northern Xinjiang. If the general is really loyal to the royal family, then it is time to hand over the imperial grandson. This is a choice for both the people of the imperial capital and the imperial grandson. Why do you want to let His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun wander into the wilderness?"

Yuan Zuo: "Kuangfu the royal family? You traitors killed the queen mother and destroyed the palace, and you dare to speak out here? Although I am not talented, even if I die, I will keep the last bloodline for the mother and the eldest prince!"

Ah Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, this person was so confident that he could protect the emperor and grandson? Wasn't he worried that others would not be able to protect the emperor and grandson? The army was in chaos, the southwest was far away, and the palace worshippers and himself had been captured, why was he so confident that he could let others escort the emperor and grandson to the southwest? Or did Ah Heng suddenly think of a possibility!

Without waiting for Ah Heng to ask again, Xiao Lei said angrily: "If you want to die, it's so easy, I'll fulfill you now!" He directly pulled out his waist knife and put it on the other party's neck.

Yuan Zuo sneered, but did not speak.

Xiao Lei: "What's the matter!"

Yuan Zuo: "I'm afraid that if I talk too much to a fool, I will become stupid!"

Xiao Lei: "You-!" He couldn't wait to chop the other party with a knife, but he also knew that this person couldn't be killed until he found the emperor's grandson!

Ah Heng raised his hand: "Brother Xiao, why bother with this kind of subordinate prisoner, he is just blind, blindly loyal, and does not distinguish between loyalty, treachery, beauty and ugliness - he thinks he is smart, but in fact he is stupid!"

Yuan Zuo snorted coldly: "You don't have to say anything about it! If you want to kill, you have to listen to the honorable people." The Southwest Legion is coming, and you traitors are dying like you!" he laughed, "I, Yuanzuo, will definitely be waiting for you on the way to hell!"

Ah Heng smiled faintly: "Southwest Army, it's a pity, if you continue to be so stupid - Huo Qing won't come!"

Yuan Zuo was stunned, and he didn't understand what the other party meant? Is there any inevitable relationship between himself and Governor Huo Qing's sending troops?

Ah Heng continued to himself: "I heard that the date for Huo Qing to launch the military exercise is set for November 23, and it will only be six days until today——"

Yuan Zuo sneered: "Lord Duke has a good memory! Don't worry, you traitors still have time to prepare for the future!"

Ah Heng: "It's a pity, Huo Qing is a cautious person! From the official announcement to the start of the exercise, he actually set aside ten days, and he shouted to the whole world - I really can't believe that a powerful governor would actually do such a meaningless thing-General Yuan Zuo, haven't you ever thought about why?"

Yuan Zuo was stunned.

Ah Heng was surprised: "You really haven't thought about it? Alas, you are so ...... Naïve!"

Yuan Zuo's face was a little unnatural.

Ah Heng continued: "Let's put it bluntly, Huo Qing is testing, he is testing whether someone is really dead. Huo Qing chose a path for himself to advance or retreat. Exercises can turn into war, and they can also really be pure exercises. It all depends on whether the person he fears will die and rise again after he announces it?"

Yuan Zuo: "Governor Huo, he's ...... Who are you afraid of?" Yuan Zuo had inadvertently followed Ah Heng's train of thought and began to think.

Ah Heng: "Naturally, he is the one who has the strength to be the emperor in the future." Ah Heng continued to hint that only in this way would the other party be convinced.

Several names flashed in Yuan Zuo's mind in an instant, and then froze on one name: "You say...... Prince Wen Ye Chong? It's impossible--I saw the head sent by Dai Luo with my own eyes!"

Ah Heng sighed: "It seems that I really think highly of you! It's not wrong to say that you are blind at all." I can tell you with certainty that not only is he not dead, but he will appear in front of the people of the world before the southwest exercise-"

Yuan Zuo's face turned pale, if this is the case, will the governor of the southwest still have the courage to enter the imperial capital?

Ah Heng looked at the other party's appearance, and he was more convinced of his conjecture in his heart. Yuan Zuo was really looking forward to the arrival of the Southwest Army, for a Praetorian Guard commander who was responsible for escorting the imperial grandson to the southwest, there was only one reason why he was so looking forward to Huo Qing's arrival, and that was - the imperial grandson had never left, and he was in the imperial capital at this moment.

It seems that it is time for Yuanzuo to give up some illusions!

Ah Heng: "General, as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard for many years, you should know how many Ye Chong's henchmen are in the palace and how much power you have—"

Yuan Zuo naturally knew what kind of power that gentle man held in the palace, for many years, as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, although he was loyal to the royal family, it was actually just an ornament. If it weren't for Guo Zizhong, the governor of Northern Xinjiang, to clean up, he would still be an ornament. However, what does the other party mean by this?

Yuan Zuo's mind was racing, and suddenly his whole body froze, and he was sweating profusely in an instant, and said in horror: "No, it can't be! That person must be dead!"

Ah Heng sneered: "You know how stupid you are now! Let me guess if you have handed over the real imperial grandson to one of your henchmen, and this henchman has never left the imperial capital." ”

Yuanzuo's body trembled.

Ah Heng continued: "The reason why you did this is because you know very well that in the face of more than 100,000 central troops, there is no chance to escape to the southwest with the imperial grandson.

Therefore, you desperately led people to rush out of the imperial capital and flee to the southwest, just to create a false impression that the emperor and grandson have been following you all along. In this way, you can let your henchmen put the imperial grandson in a hidden place, wait for Huo Qing to lead the 300,000 southwest army to arrive in the imperial capital, and then send the imperial grandson to Huo Qing's hands-"

Motosa's clothes are already completely soaked with sweat, and this teenager's insight is terrifying!

Heng: "It seems that this is the case-!"

Yuan Zuo suddenly fell to his knees with a pop and pulled his hair in pain!

Ah Heng: "I think you already understand that your henchman may not be reliable, he is probably Prince Wen's Ye Chong's person! So, let's go, take us to the emperor's grandson, if he is still here, it means that your henchman has not betrayed you." If he is not in the hiding place, then the emperor and grandson will soon fall into the hands of Prince Wen - you should know what will happen to the emperor and grandson once he falls into the hands of that person!

Once it is a foregone conclusion, Huo Qing will always be his shrinking turtle, for his glory and wealth, even if it is his grandson, he will abandon it!"

Yuan Zuo hissed in pain and begged: "Don't say it again, please don't say it anymore - it's me stupid, I hurt the emperor and grandson, I'm sorry Niangniang, I deserve to die, I deserve to die-" Because all these schemes were originally proposed by his henchman. In vain, he thought it was a brilliant plan, but he didn't know that he had already fallen into someone else's trap.

Ah Heng looked at the other party with pity and said lightly: "You really deserve to die, but even if you die, it won't help." Let's go, take me to the emperor's grandson! Believe me, I won't harm him!"

Yuan Zuo raised his head, his eyes red: "It's too late, it's too late-"

Ah Heng: "Don't give up any chance! Now I can only hope that after I announce the ban, the other party will not have a chance to leave the city!"

There was a glimmer of hope in Yuan Zuo's eyes, that's right, he shouldn't give up easily!

Ah Heng suddenly said: "General Yuan, there is still something to ask, where did the child who was rescued by General Xiao Lei come from?" His voice was full of coldness, sacrificing another child in order to save one child, such a cold-blooded thing is also unforgivable.

A trace of pain flashed on Yuan Zuo's face, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "That's my newborn son—"

Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, looking at the haggard man in front of him, and suddenly, he didn't know whether to laugh at him, or pity him, or admire this man!

Xiao Lei was already in awe!(To be continued.) )
