332. Who was involved in the murder in the first place?

Hearing this, Shen Chen felt ridiculous.

"Nearly 100,000 people, which is indeed a large team. If you succeed in capturing the rich Jinling and absorb the people, officers and soldiers here, it will be enough to divide one side and threaten the imperial court. ”

"But, how do you think that this person can play with me Shen Zhonghan?"

Xiao Xianwen's face changed suddenly.

Yes, the person sitting in front of him now is none other than Shen Zhonghan, the former general of the Zhenguo!

When he was only a teenager, he was able to rely on a few thousands of people alone, playing tens of thousands of Hu people, and countless strange combat exploits with fewer victories, and he was the shadow of Hu and barbarians.

Seven years ago, Daqin defeated the Hu people and suffered a palace change, which was the time when the company was weak and weak, but whenever any of the Hu barbarians raised troops to attack, the Great Qin at that time had no power to resist.

But Hu Man didn't.

Why?

Because Shen Zhonghan was still there at that time, even if the court later announced that he died in prison, not many people believed him and did not dare to act rashly.

It was also after a few years that countless people believed that Shen Zhonghan was really dead, and they gradually became restless.

For Xiao Xianwen, if there was no Shen Zhonghan, he would be extremely confident in capturing Jinling, even if the imperial court sent troops from the Jiangyou region too late. When all his people came, the army was strong, and the court was even more helpless.

At that time, they will be able to establish themselves as kings and attack the capital step by step north.

It's just that Shen Zhonghan, who should have died, is still alive!

Xiao Xianwen glared at Shen Chen hatefully, and forced himself to calm down: "Even if it...... Even if you are in Jinling, but I have checked, Jinling has less than 10,000 available troops, and there is a plague, in this case, even if it is you...... How is it possible to do this with this person?! ”

not only exterminated his siege of the city, but also destroyed his camp, and the people who rushed to converge, even if the Daluo Immortal came to the world, Xiao Xianwen did not believe that he could do it.

"You're right, it's a bit difficult to do." Shen Chen said lightly, and when hope rose in Xiao Xianwen's eyes, he said, "Are you sure that Jinlin Mansion only has those soldiers?" ”

Xiao Xianwen was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, "Jinling Yi's private army?!" ”

Shen Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and didn't speak, but Xiao Xianwen was already very sure.

"The Yi family now only has Yi Hong as an official in the court, but the emperor did not degrade him as a assassin, and inspected the Jiangyou area! After the outbreak of the plague in Jinling, it was even more impossible for him to come back, so how could his private army be here? Don't...... He already knew that Jinling was different? Arranged early?! ”

The Jinling Yi clan is one of the few ethnic groups that can have a private army, but no matter what, they still have to obey the emperor's orders, and they can't easily move the private army, otherwise they will be rebellious.

Yi Hong moved the private army to arrange here in advance, which can only show that he has obtained the emperor's permission.

It also means that the emperor has long known that there will be rebels in Jinling!

Thinking of this, Xiao Xianwen became more emotional than before.

"The emperor already knew? He knows we're alive?! So why didn't you do it sooner rather than now? ”

Looking at Shen Chen, who was not shocked, Xiao Xianwen gritted his teeth and said: "I know, the emperor has long known that we are not dead, but the vitality of the imperial court was greatly injured and he couldn't withstand the regeneration of chaos, so he didn't clean us up at that time, but waited to recuperate, and he also planned for me to contact the old department, so that I could catch it all, right?!" ”

"As for you, you're never dead. At that time, during the palace change, the emperor deliberately let you go and let you disappear from public view, so that you suddenly appeared today and caught me off guard! ”

"What a vicious ploy!"

Xiao Xianwen opened his mouth again, but he was angry and vomited blood, leaning against the wall weakly, his face like dead ashes.

Shen Chen frowned slightly, turned to the side imperceptibly, and said lightly: "The henchmen around the five princes in the past, plus you, are only a few people. There are only a handful of people who can survive by chance. Who else but you? Where is it now? ”

Xiao Xianwen closed his eyes and said weakly, "I won't say it." Today's defeat, I, Xiao Xianwen, admit that my skills are not as good as others, that is, life is worse than death, and I will not betray a word! ”

"Yes."

"What?"

Xiao Xianwen was stunned, as if he didn't expect Shen Chen to change his words so easily.

Immediately, Shen Chen's cold words sounded.

"Then let's talk about other things, for example, seven years ago, who were the people who participated in framing me for collaborating with the enemy and treason?"

Xiao Xianwen's heart was shocked, and he suddenly opened his eyes to look at Shen Chen, and when he met his cold and sharp eyes like an eagle falcon, he trembled as if he was entangled by a poisonous snake.

"What you do, I ...... How could it be...... Clear......"

Shen Chen got up and approached Xiao Xianwen step by step, and every step fell in Xiao Xianwen's eyes as if it was infinitely extended, full of oppression.

"I don't know? Let me put it another way. ”

"Seven years ago, the palace change, the fifth prince, a person who had never had a foundation, successfully encircled most of the officials in the court to help him in a short period of time. Because there are too many people involved, after the palace change, there are still some henchmen who remain in the court. There was a shortage of people in the court, and the emperor could not cure their sins and stay to do things. ”

"If I remember correctly, the person in charge of disposing of the traitor's corpse was one of the officials of the Five Princes. And the reason why you are alive is because the emperor has no time to take care of it, and this official has not carefully examined it. But was this official unintentional? ”

Xiao Xianwen subconsciously moved back, clinging to the wall, "I don't know...... Know what you mean...... Meaning......"

Shen Chen stopped, half-squatting, his eyes at the level of Xiao Xianwen.

"What if this official deliberately let you go?"

"The fifth prince is dead, but you, as his confidants, know a lot about him, including how he coerced the official, and the official's handle, forcing him to give you a way out."

Shen Chen raised his hand as he spoke.

As a result, he moved, and Xiao Xianwen trembled, desperately shrinking back, as if Shen Chen would kill him.

The corners of Shen Chen's mouth hooked up a mocking arc.

"Collaboration with the enemy and treason, evidence such as the military defense map leaked to the enemy, and the letter of contact with the Hu people, these are not ordinary people can fabricate. There are not many people who have the ability to quietly enter and leave my mansion in Beijing to post letters. The biggest is probably royalty. ”

"To do such a thing, the probability of a few people doing it is also very low. There must be quite a few people, right? ”

Xiao Xianwen swallowed his saliva, and his voice trembled: "General, you can't just ...... just because you feel that you are resentful Just wronged others, right? I don't know, I really don't know......"

"You think clearly, speak out, and live as a witness. Otherwise," Shen Chen's expression was sharp, and he suddenly reached out to grab Xiao Xianwen's neck, looked at his face flushed from suffocation, and sneered: "-You will know what is really worse than death." ”
