Chapter 163: Acting
"You have a backbone in the back of your head, and you dare to come to deceive you, obviously you want to harm me and Lao Li, isn't this reason enough?"
Jiang Hong said confidently.
In his opinion, one of these three points is enough to behead this person.
Li Xing couldn't help but pat his forehead.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is too straightforward!
Since they asked, you have to give a plausible reason!
Hou Jing criticized his mother at this time.
He still has to explain that he doesn't want to die so inexplicably.
Hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the back of Weichen's head is not a backbone, but he was shot in the head when he was fighting with the barbarians on the border ten years ago, and after he was lucky enough not to die, it became like this." ”
"Your Highness, my brothers and I have always been loyal to the court, why do you want to deceive us?"
When Jiang Hong heard that Hou Jing's skull was like this because of the battle with the barbarians, he felt as if he was wrong.
Hearing Hou Jingbiao's loyalty, he began to lose his mind.
Subconsciously looked at Li Xing.
Li Xing saw Jiang Hong looking at himself, and said in his heart, the prince is still too young.
Can you believe this kind of thing?
If they all ended up at the court, how could they kill the governor? Accompanying Wu Yi as a thief?
So Li Xing gave the prince a calm look.
looked at Hou Jing: "Since you sincerely assist the court thieves and are from the military, don't you know that such a confidential matter must change at any time with the situation, and you can't agree on a date, so you can only follow the trend randomly?" ”
"The appointment date is clearly a fraud, and you dare to speak out here with unashamed sophistry?"
Hou Jing was powerless to explain Li Xing's words.
Because it was beyond his comprehension.
After all, in his experience, the agreement should be agreed upon, and the date is set.
Speaking of following the trend, he only heard about it for the first time.
He was so angry that his liver hurt.
Suddenly got up, stared at Li Xing, and said in a tone of despair and sadness.
"Traitor, traitor, I want to be beheaded as a traitor, it's sad, it's sad!"
When Li Xing saw this, he said in his heart that this Hou Jing didn't want to be an actor, it was really condescending.
"Lao Li, it seems that this kind of loyal minister cannot be killed, otherwise the history books of future generations will write you and me as traitors."
Li Xing was speechless for a while, this prince always didn't know the priorities.
Your family is almost gone, and you're still worried about the history books.
No matter how benevolent and righteous you are now, you have become the king of the fallen country, and all kinds of crimes will be arranged for you.
However, Li Xing thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was indeed not much necessary to kill this person.
Anyway, if they don't attack the city now, it's better to let this person pass a fake message to the city!
In this way, it will be possible to solve the 100,000 followers of the White Lotus Sect in the city without much effort.
Nodding lightly at Jiang Hong, then he said to Hou Jing: "In this way, you are indeed a loyal person, but now that smallpox is raging in the camp, the general and the prince must be appeased at all times. ”
"Your Highness, Lord Li, I must report to the Admiral truthfully, I wonder if I can write a secret letter?"
Hou Jing was relieved when he saw Li Xing say this.
He saluted again to the crown prince and Li Xing, and made his small request.
Regarding the matter of secret letters, Li Xing still satisfied him.
Whether it is a fraudulent surrender or a real surrender, it is useful to reply to a letter.
Fraudulent replies can create a gap within the other party.
If it really falls, it can reassure the other party's heart.
After getting the reply, Li Xing glanced at Jiang Hong and asked Jiang Hong to entertain Hou Jing in the big tent.
Li Xing glanced at one of the guards.
The guard was originally from the shadow guard, and he understood the meaning of Li Xing's eyes in seconds.
followed without a trace, took a few steps back, and followed Li Xing out of the account.
Li Xing beckoned to the guard and asked him to come over with his ear.
Then whispered something in his ear.
The man nodded, and said in his heart, this Lord Li, there are really a lot of ghost eyes, fortunately he is loyal to the prince, otherwise this kind of person would not be able to stay.
The shadow guard went to arrange Li Xing's orders.
Li Xing entered the camp again and yawned.
said to Hou Jing, who was about to drink corn porridge: "The remnants of the White Lotus in the city, are there ghosts arranged among those displaced people?" Do you have a list? ”
"Yes, yes."
Hou Jing hurriedly put down the porridge bowl in his hand.
After fumbling through his underwear for a while, he pulled out another letter.
Respectfully handed it to Li Xing: "Lord Li, I'm really sorry, just now the villain was so frightened that he forgot about this letter." ”
Li Xing laughed secretly in his heart.
I'm afraid you kid didn't forget, but deliberately didn't give it.
But he didn't break it.
After receiving the letter, he did not forget to praise Hou Jing, saying that he was able to do his job.
Hou Jing lowered his head, this is what he should do.
Li Xing beckoned him to hurry up and eat again.
That's when I started to read the letter.
Just when Li Xing finished reading and remembered the list inside, a small soldier outside hurriedly ran into the big tent.
Entering the big tent, the sweaty soldiers didn't have time to say anything to salute, but knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Highness, Lord Li, it's not good, the group of displaced people who received yesterday had a serious smallpox epidemic, and today the marching army went to treat them, and found that almost half of them were dead, and the rest of the people were also dying, and many soldiers were also infected." ”
"What? How so? ”
The prince didn't know about Li Xing's arrangement just now, and thought it was true.
And with a little rubbing, he came to the soldier.
The soldier was visibly frightened.
When the guard gave the order just now, he only said that he should run and sweat, showing a panicked look, and said these words.
I didn't tell him that the prince would be excited!
All the while, I was stunned.
Seeing this, Li Xing knew that this little soldier must have no later lines.
hurriedly went over, hugged Jiang Hong, kicked the soldier, and then scolded: "Dog, don't get out yet, you actually spread such false news in front of the prince." ”
"Ah......h
When the soldier heard this, his face turned bloodless with fright.
He thought he had been pitted by the guards.
Even more dazed and overwhelmed.
Li Xing looked at this person, he was so unwitting, and gave him another kick: "Don't get out yet, is it to let you not beat people and cut off the head of you, a person who confuses the public?" ”
"Ah...... Damn it, get out. ”
The little soldier crawled out of the tent.
After running a long way, he was relieved to see that no one came to arrest him.
At this moment, the guard that Li Xing had just ordered came to Xiao Bing's side.
Throw a silver ingot to him: "Boy, it's a little interesting, you played well, this is your reward." ”
