Now.

Seeing Chu Mo coming, Zhou Wenbing on the bed also knew that it was time for him to fulfill his promise. But considering that his wife and the rest of the family didn't know about the things he did, Zhou Wenbing naturally didn't want them to know about the wrong things he had done.

And Zhou Wenbing's wife is also a person who is good at observing words and feelings, and when she saw her husband's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, she immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Wenbing, the lives of our family were saved by the prince, and the prince finally came to visit today, and the concubine will not bother you, I will go to the kitchen to prepare some food, if the prince does not dislike it, stay and eat together at night." ”

After speaking, Mrs. Zhou picked up the medicine bowl on the side and left the room.

After Mrs. Zhou left, Chu Mo nodded towards Yu Zixuan, Yu Zixuan understood, immediately turned around and left, closed the door, and waited outside the door to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

"Lord Shizi, I don't thank you for your kindness, everything you have done to our Zhou family, Zhou Wenbing will not be able to repay him as a cow and a horse in the next life."

Zhou Wenbing struggled to get up, but Chu Mo stepped forward to stop him, and said lightly: "This Shizi saved you because you still have some use for this Shizi." ”

When Zhou Wenbing heard this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

"Shizi, Zhou knows what you came here for. If the prince has anything to ask, just ask, as long as Zhou knows, he will say everything. ”

Zhou Wenbing said.

"Okay, then the prince of the world will ask you, on the day of Li Deyi's birthday, is what the envoy of the Southern Qi said true or false? Did you leak the news of the Beiliang Mansion to the enemy, so it led to the destruction of the Beiliang Palace? ”

Chu Mo asked indifferently.

Hearing Chu Mo's question, Zhou Wenbing's thoughts seemed to go back to twenty years ago, when he was just a squire in the Ministry of War, but it was precisely because of this incident that he became the secretary of the Ministry of War today.

After Zhou Wenbing came back to his senses, he only heard him sigh helplessly, and said: "What the envoy of Southern Qi said is only a half-truth. At that time, I did go to the Southern Qi camp, and it was Zhou who revealed the matter of the Northern Liang Mansion to the Southern Qi side. But this is only one of them, in fact, it is not Zhou's will to go to Nanqi, but because of His Majesty's order! ”

"Li Deyi's order?"

Chu Mo frowned.

When Zhou Wenbing heard this, he continued: "The Beiliang Palace's guard Beiliang, when there is an immortal merit, the prince should be able to imagine it, this merit is high and the world, especially the vassal king, this will naturally make His Majesty feel a trace of crisis." Perhaps His Majesty has already felt the threat brought by the Beiliang Royal Mansion to the royal family, and this time the Northern Yan and Southern Qi invaded Beiliang, which is a great opportunity for His Majesty to deal with hidden dangers. ”

"Does the prince still remember Zhai Tianyao?"

Hearing this, Chu Mo nodded.

"Zhai Tianyao, the squire of the Ministry of War, has been assigned to the frontier because he privately issued a document to the Ministry of War and framed General Su for rebellion. Lord Zhou, you suddenly mentioned this person, is it possible that there is a reason for it? ”

Chu Mo asked.

After listening to Chu Mo's words, Zhou Wenbing shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "What is it to issue the documents of the Ministry of War privately, he Zhai Tianyao was just a small person in charge of the Ministry of War more than ten years ago, how dare he do this." The so-called framing of General Su is just someone who wants to find an excuse to prevent General Su from sending troops to support the Beiliang war. ”

"Actually, all this is Your Majesty's orders. Whether it is Zhai Tianyao or Zhou, they are just pawns in this game of chess played by His Majesty. ”

"Beiliang Wangfu has a meritorious service in guarding Beiliang, although Your Majesty has a jealousy of Beiliang Wangfu, but Your Majesty still shows great concern about the war in Beiliang, but this is just to show the ministers in the court and the people of the world."

"On the bright side, His Majesty asked Zhou to send an army of soldiers to escort grain and grass to Beiliang, and at the same time asked Zhai Tianyao to issue a document from the Ministry of War ordering General Su to lead the troops to support immediately. But secretly, His Majesty quietly revealed the route of grain and grass transportation to the enemy, and even General Su, who was about to lead to support Beiliang, was added to the trumped-up charges and ended up beheaded. ”

"All of this is nothing but a conspiracy of His Majesty. After a few years, if nothing happens, we pawns will be fine, but once the matter is revealed, then those of us who are related to the incident of the year will become scapegoats. ”

"Although Zhai Tianyao only fell into the punishment of the frontier at this time, in Zhou's opinion, Zhai Tianyao and the Zhai family were already killed by His Majesty."

"Zhou is just blessed with a great life, and he can get the help of the world, otherwise Zhou is afraid that he will already be ......"

Saying this, Zhou Wenbing shook his head bitterly.

After listening to Zhou Wenbing's words, Chu Mo was not as angry as he imagined, which was completely beyond Zhou Wenbing's expectations.

"Isn't the prince angry?"

Zhou Wenbing was surprised.

When Chu Mo heard this, he shook his head indifferently.

"Only incompetent people will be angry at their own incompetence when they know the truth. Do you have any evidence to prove what you just said? ”

Chu Mo said lightly.

"Naturally! Back then, His Majesty conveyed these things to us in the form of a secret letter, and Zhou also knew that this matter was very important, so he kept an extra eye. ”

Zhou Wenbing knows Li Deyi's character, if this matter is revealed, Li Deyi will inevitably take action against those who know the inside story in order to make the truth disappear permanently.

And the truth is just as he thought, at this moment, Zhou Wenbing also had to feel glad for the decision he made at the beginning.

It was he who left a heart eye like this, which saved himself and his family's lives.

Subsequently, Zhou Wenbing informed Chu Mo of the place where the evidence was stored. Chu Mo called Yu Zixuan and asked him to get the evidence back.

When I leave, it is already unitary time.

Yu Zixuan had already left Luoxia City one step ahead and went to Zhou Wenbing's old mansion to get the so-called evidence.

Chu Mo, on the other hand, politely refused Mrs. Zhou's retention and drove the carriage back to Kyoto alone.

But before leaving, Chu Mo specially told Zhou Wenbing that they were not allowed to enter and leave the mansion at will, after all, Luoxia City was only a few dozen kilometers away from Kyoto, and once Li Deyi knew that Zhou Wenbing was not dead, then he would inevitably send someone to kill people.

When I returned to Kyoto, it was already the time of the year.

Chu Mo did not return to the Shizi Mansion, but drove the carriage directly to the Taishi Mansion, thinking back to what his old father-in-law told him before leaving, Chu Mo knew that maybe after tonight, he would get the whole truth about what happened twenty years ago......
