276, self-justifying
"That's it! Honestly, it won't work, so let's think of a decent reason to explain it. ”
Xiao Yuan was very irritable and was not in the mood to listen to their bickering, so he thought about how to handle this errand perfectly.
Although there are countless stories of ghosts and gods in the world, there are not many who have actually seen them in person, and even if there are, it is estimated that others are bragging or deliberately scaring people when they say it, and most of them have never seen it after all.
He was thinking, if he told the truth, the people above would probably think that he was shirking responsibility, right? Or maybe you think you're fooling them?
After all, when they encounter such a ghost, they can't prove it at all.
Is it just these blood-stained clothes and bones? It's hard to believe, right?
But when they met a female ghost, it was indeed a real thing, which really made people feel dumb and eat Coptis chinensis, that is, when they told the truth, there were very few people who were willing to believe it.
Maybe he will cause a lot of trouble and disgust at that time.
This time, he was deeply responsible for the family, and he overwhelmed several brothers in the family to get this errand, but if the person is gone, the head of the family and the clan elders will definitely be very disappointed in him, so what future will he talk about in the future?
Therefore, he must find a safe and decent reason, anyway, the Song brothers are dead, and their ultimate goal is not to let them die?
So why care how they died? Just let them know and believe that the Song brothers are really dead.
"I think I'm going to say that the two of them are going to have an emergency?"
"No, I will definitely let the corpse be examined by the time come, but now that everyone has been eaten by female ghosts, we can't even take out the corpse."
"Otherwise, the horse was frightened and rushed off the cliff and died."
"Well, that's a good one, but will the top blame us for not taking good care of it?"
Xiao Yuan suddenly said loudly, "That's a good idea. ”
"Huh?"
Everyone was slightly surprised, they didn't expect General Xiao to agree to this proposal, but in their opinion, this idea was not safe enough.
Xiao Yuan explained, "Aren't there bandits running rampant everywhere now? Let's just say that they were attacked by bandits, and they were unprepared for a while, and the horse pulling the prisoner cart was frightened and rushed off the cliff, resulting in the Song brothers dying on the spot.
Then, you try to find two corpses that are about the same size as them, and when the time comes, you can blur their faces, and say that they fell at the bottom of the cliff and ruined their faces, right?
It just so happened that we had lost six soldiers, and the personnel were all registered in the booklets, and after returning to Beijing, we also had to think about giving an explanation, let's just say that they died under the knife of the bandits, so that we could also cancel their lists, and there would be an explanation. ”
"Clever!"
"That's a good idea, it's seamless!"
"It's still General Xiao who is smart, I admire it."
"Yes, yes, so that we can have an explanation."
"yes, it's better to make up a pretense that they prefer to believe than a reason they don't believe."
"That's right, General Xiao will leave the rest to us, don't worry, we will definitely handle it."
Xiao Yuan nodded, "Okay, pack up and get ready to go." ”
After such a delay, the sky was bright, and although the Song brothers were gone, they still had to continue to rush back to Beijing.
"Yes."
So, the group filled in the loopholes on their own, and discussed a more convincing version of the story.
**
Xia Ning and the others who were driving on the other side of the road didn't know that those soldiers would be so powerful, no matter what, their goal had been achieved anyway.
A group of four people returned along the same road, except for eating and drinking Lazar along the way, they would stop and rest for a while, the rest of the time they were in a hurry, although they were a little tired, but thinking of the Song family in the distance, everyone just wanted to rush back as soon as possible.
The first is that they haven't seen each other for too long, and they are also thinking about their families, and the second is that they are also worried about the safety of their old and young women and children, just in case it is better to join them as soon as possible.
But because Song's father and the two were still injured, Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin still slowed down, and they were not in such a hurry as when they came, Xia Ning was not idle along the way, and three meals a day changed to supplement nutrition for the two of them.
Of course, a lot of wound medicine was also provided for the two of them to take, but fortunately, they have been exercising all year round, and they are strong, and the whiplash wounds on their bodies are nothing to them, after all, they have been dancing and playing with swords all year round, and injuries are already commonplace.
Instead, they were denied food, and they were left to suffer from hunger all the time.
The Song father and the others also took advantage of the days of their journey to learn more about the things on the road to exile, including how the two of them subdued the escort team, if they reached an alliance with the Wen family and others, and what natural and man-made disasters have happened in this world now, etc.
Of course, they also mentioned Song Anbang's situation to them, and this news really reassured the hearts of the two.
"Uncle, what happened to you before?"
Xia Ning said she was curious and wanted to know how they fell into the trap?
Mentioning this, Father Song looked frustrated, "I am also to blame for my poor management and unclear understanding of people, so I let my team have a spies, I think I should have been bought by the Xiao family."
At that time, he sent us a false information, and we led our troops to chase after us to catch them all, but we fell into a trap, and when my second brother and I tried to break free from their encirclement, we suddenly found that our whole body could not exert our strength, and we fainted immediately after.
When we woke up, we found ourselves in a large prison underneath, and we didn't know what had happened until half a month later when we were put in a prison car, and we learned that the Holy One had condemned us. ”
Until now, he felt chilled when he thought about it, his Song clan was loyal to the country, and their Song men were even more perennial in the killing field to defend the frontier, but they didn't expect to end up in such a fate.
It's nothing for him to die, but what makes him most indignant is that the current saint is so ruthless and kills them all!
Sure enough, the old saying was answered: the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die.
The saint didn't even give them a chance to prove their innocence, and directly convicted them of the Song family based on the so-called evidence given by the Xiao family.
What does this mean?
Although he is a martial artist, it doesn't mean that he has no brains, and after a little thought, he understands the inside story, if the saint really believes them, it is impossible to convict them without even seeing their faces.
This is the real chilling place, their Song family has been loyal to the royal family for three generations, and they think that there is no place to be sorry for their royal family, but now they have to be eliminated by them.
What a sarcasm!
