Chapter 2: Hearing of Death
"Big brother, I just heard you talking about General Su, did something happen?" Yin Nanfeng walked up to the person who had just whispered and asked.
"Don't you know that? He committed a great sin. Embezzling military salaries and collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country are capital crimes. ”
After hearing this, Yin Nanfeng only felt ridiculous, the general was upright, had clean sleeves, loved the people like a son, and was loyal and courageous, so it was absolutely impossible for him to embezzle military salaries, let alone collaborate with the enemy and betray the country. There must be a misunderstanding.
"However, I have heard that General Su is a great good man, and every month he sets up a porridge shack to give porridge to refugees and the poor. Moreover, he usually guards the frontier to defend against foreign enemies, but he guards the safety of the entire Great Zhou. Yin Nanfeng argued.
"Brother, who knows that he is this kind of person, can only say that he deserves it."
Yin Nanfeng held back his anger and continued to ask: "You just said that he deserved it, so how did the emperor decide?" General Su has worked hard and won the favor of the saints, so there should be nothing wrong, right? ”
"Nothing? He has been summarily executed! ”
Yin Nanfeng was very shocked when he heard it, he stumbled and almost fell to the ground, the dim sum in his hand fell to the ground, and he didn't care about picking it up at all.
I saw Yin Nanfeng grabbing the man's collar and saying hoarsely, "How do you know?" You'd better not lie to me, or I won't spare you. ”
The man trembled with fright, and said tremblingly, "Shaoxia, I'...... I didn't lie to you, General Su's head is still hanging on the city wall, and everyone says that it is to set an example. ”
Yin Nanfeng felt a sharp pain in his heart, and as soon as he let go, the person fell to the ground and fled with a crawl.
Yin Nanfeng didn't care about etiquette at all at this time, and grabbed a horse on the street and ran towards the city gate.
He had to see the general's head with his own eyes to believe all this, otherwise he categorically wouldn't have believed it.
That person must have lied to himself, he didn't believe it, he didn't believe that such a good person as the general would end up like this, he didn't believe that the emperor would be so ruthless, and he actually executed him without listening to the general's self-proof of innocence.
Yin Nanfeng hurried up and finally arrived at the city gate. When he was still ten meters away from the city gate, he vaguely saw something hanging from the city gate tower, and he didn't want to believe that it was the general.
After doing the construction for a long time in his heart, Yin Nanfeng turned over and dismounted and walked towards the city gate, these few steps Yin Nanfeng walked extremely difficult.
I don't know how long it took, Yin Nanfeng walked to the city gate, he took a deep breath, raised his head, and an extremely familiar face came into view.
Yin Nanfeng sat on the ground and cried bitterly. Although he didn't want to believe it, it was a general, and it was a fake. There is another person next to the general, that is the little general, the young lady's own brother.
The emperor is really ruthless, why doesn't he believe the general? Actually so to the general. It is impossible for a general to embezzle military salaries and collaborate with the enemy and betray the country in his life, he has been stationed on the frontier for so many years, and he can't reunite with his family, in order to protect the people of the Great Zhou?
Yin Nanfeng remembered that ten years ago, General Su rescued his orphan on the battlefield, and brought him back to the mansion to take care of him, teach himself to practice martial arts and read, and treat himself as his own son.
Although he was only a guard in the Su Mansion, the young master and the young lady never regarded him as a subordinate, he regarded them as his relatives from the bottom of his heart, and regarded the general as his father.
Yin Nanfeng couldn't figure it out: It's only been a day, why has everything changed? In the morning, Miss was still discussing the general's birthday with herself, and in the afternoon, the general's mansion was destroyed. This is unacceptable to anyone.
That's right, Miss! Yin Nanfeng suddenly remembered that Miss was still waiting for him, and she must be very worried now.
Yin Nanfeng quickly turned over and got on his horse, he glanced in the direction of the city gate for the last time, then raised his leather whip ruthlessly, and ran towards the contact point without looking back.
Liaison point, Su Muye anxiously paced back and forth in the room. Nanfeng has been gone for a while, but there is no news for a long time, will something happen?
The more Su Muye thought about it, the more scared she became, seeing that it was about to get dark, and the south wind had not come back yet, Su Muye decided to go out and have a look.
Just as Su Muye pushed the door out, she heard the sound of horses' hooves. Su Muye opened the window and saw a man riding into the inn on the second floor, looking at the figure of the south wind
。 After a while, there was a sharp knock on the door from Su Muye's room.
"South Wind, is that you?" Su Muye asked eagerly.
"Miss, it's me."
Su Muye hurriedly opened the door.
"Southwind, how's it going? What's going on? What about the father? What happened to my father and brother? Su Muye asked a series of questions in one breath.
Yin Nanfeng saw Su Muye's expression of concern, but he didn't know how to speak, so he could only avoid Su Muye's eyes.
"Nanfeng, why don't you speak. What's going on? ”
"Miss, you calm down first, promise me, no matter what I say for a while, you won't be excited. All right? ”
"Okay, how are you going to tell me about my father and brother?"
"They, they...... It's dead," Yin Nanfeng said with difficulty.
"What did you say?" Su Muye suspected that she had misheard and confirmed with Yin Nanfeng.
"They, they...... It's gone. Yin Nanfeng looked at Su Muye with concern, afraid that she would not be able to withstand the blow.
Su Muye suddenly felt that the five thunders had hit the top, and her sky had fallen. Is my father and brother really gone?
In normal times, Su Muye would have fainted directly, she was so timid, she usually screamed when she saw flying insects, but today she was stunned and didn't say a word, just stood in a daze.
Yin Nanfeng felt very uncomfortable when he saw Su Muye like this, and said, "Miss, I know you feel uncomfortable, just cry if you want to." ”
Su Muye turned his head, stared at Yin Nanfeng, his eyes were red, and said word by word: "I don't cry, my father said that I want to be strong." ”
"Nanfeng, where are the bodies of my father and brother? I'm going to take them home. ”
Yin Nanfeng really couldn't bear to hit Su Muye again, and lied to her that the body was in the palace, wanting her to retreat.
Su Muye was stunned, knowing that she couldn't take away her father and brother with her own strength now, she needed to know what was going on before she could figure out a way.
"Nanfeng, why did my father and brother die?"
"The people said that they were embezzling military salaries and collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country."
"Nonsense! How could a father ......? ”
"Miss, I don't believe that the general would do such a thing, there must be something wrong with this."
"It's the official book, and, there's ...... My master. It must be them, and today they are the ones who led people into the house. ”
"Lord Chen? He has always been good friends with the general, and he is your master, miss, is there a misunderstanding? ”
"I don't want to believe it, but I saw with my own eyes that after the master stabbed my father, my father fell in a pool of blood." Su Muye recalled the scene during the day and closed her eyes in pain.
"Miss, why don't I go to the palace to find out what happened?"
"It's too late, you've worked hard today, rest early, and go back tomorrow." Su Muye saw that Yin Nanfeng had been busy today, and he didn't rest for a moment, afraid that his body would not be able to bear it.
"It's okay, miss, don't worry, I'll be able to find out tomorrow."
Yin Nanfeng is not worried about his body, he is worried about Su Muye, he is afraid that if he leaves, Su Muye will have an accident if he stays alone.
After thinking about it, it would be more appropriate for Miss to leave tomorrow when her mood is more stable.
This night, Su Muye and Yin Nanfeng stayed awake all night.
