Chapter 163: Chen Ji was arrested

Chen Ji came back from Wei Qing'er, and before he could reach the door of the house, he was grabbed from behind by several warriors sent by Wang Si and brought back to Taishou Mansion without saying anything.

At a glance at the cage-like prisoner cart that was temporarily spliced together with wooden stakes, Chen Ji felt that one of his heads suddenly swelled to the size of half a millstone.

"Lord Chen, Your Majesty has taken great pains to capture you, but fortunately, the two generals, Wang Si and Ling Zhan, understand the righteousness, so they want you, a traitor, to be caught." The messenger walked up to Chen Ji, raised Chen Ji's jaw with one finger to confirm the authenticity, and then laughed sarcastically.

Seeing that it was indeed a member of the forbidden army in the capital, Chen Ji realized that his limit had arrived.

It must have been what he said to Wei Qing'er just now, and Wei Qing'er sued him in front of Wang Si.

"Slut hurt me!" Chen Ji gritted his teeth and said.

Wang Si slapped Chen Ji on the fat face.

"This is the general's intention, if you dare to talk nonsense, this general will make your tongue cut out!"

There was blood flowing from the corners of Chen Ji's mouth, and he stared at Wang Si, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Wang Si personally assigned ten warriors to escort Chen Ji with the messenger, and repeatedly told him that when he met his wife on the way, he should immediately hand over the wife, and he must not let his wife fail.

Several people forcibly stuffed Chen Ji into a wooden cage.

"Ungrateful villain." After entering the wooden cage, Chen Ji dared to turn around and scold at Wang Si.

Wang Si just smiled coldly.

The car quickly left the city gate of Wushire.

The messenger didn't lie, Dong Qi had really sent Wang Si's wife to Wujun.

This is actually Liu Yong's special advice when Dong Qi came, according to the law at the time, Wang Si and Ling Zhan were guilty of rebellion, and they would be exterminated by the Nine Clans, but Liu Yong did not do so, and killing a weak woman who had been at home for a long time would not play any role in the whole thing, but would arouse Wang Si's anger even more.

Because Dong Qi's men and horses were still close to a hundred miles away from Wujun, and the car carrying Mrs. Wang Si was walking very slowly, it was not until it was already dark that the two sides met at the foot of a mountain.

The warriors in charge of escorting Chen Ji had not seen Wang Si's wife, and they were worried that Dong Qi and the messenger would deceive, so they got together and discussed for a long time.

A samurai drew his sword from under his side.

"This was brought by General Wang Si from his home in the capital, and he just gave it to the villain three days ago. It can be identified by Mrs. Wang, and if you recognize this sword, you can determine the identity of Mrs. Wang. ”

"It works." Another samurai said.

"I still need to find another sword, and I want Madame to distinguish the authenticity."

Everyone nodded.

So, the samurai came to Madame Wang's car with two long swords in hand.

In Mrs. Wang's car, in addition to her, there was also an old mother who was responsible for taking care of her when she was at home. This person has followed the two for many years and is very familiar with their situation.

Two long swords were handed to the cart along with the beautifully carved scabbards.

There was no need for Mrs. Wang, the old mother had already recognized Wang Si's one the moment the long sword was handed to her hand. Because when he was in the capital, Wang Si often practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard when he had nothing to do, and this sword was one of the ones he often used.

Soon, another long sword was handed out.

The samurai took the sword and knelt on one leg.

"The villain and the others are the guards of Wang Si and General Ling Zhan, and they were ordered to come to pick up the lady and return to Wu County. Since Madame knows this sword, she should be sure. Please ask the lady to work harder, and follow the villain is equivalent to returning to Wu County. ”

The other samurai who followed also came to salute him.

After a while, Mrs. Wang's voice came from the car: "The generals work hard, and it is inconvenient for the concubines to get out of the car to return the courtesy, it is all up to the generals and others to decide." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." The samurai agreed to stand up.

At this moment, Chen Ji, who had been imprisoned in a wooden cage, suddenly let out a sneer.

"You guy, do you still have the heart to laugh when you die?" One of the warriors sent by Dong Qi shouted loudly.

"The villain laughed because Dong Qi and General Wang Si were both deceived by this woman." Chen Ji said.

Everyone was a little surprised.

"What do you mean by that?" A samurai asked.

Chen Ji pretended to be mysterious, leaned his face to the edge of the wooden cage, pointed to Mrs. Wang's car with one hand, and said, "When the villain was in Beijing, he also went to General Wang Si's mansion several times, and saw this Mrs. Wang, knowing that she was a lady, who had never had the experience of going out alone every day, and was no less than ten years younger than General Wang Si, and there was a very small red sarcoma on one arm, and the voice was not like this at all. If you haven't seen Mrs. Wang, you naturally can't hear it. ”

"You guy, what are you talking nonsense, how can Mrs. Wang's jade wrist have you seen as a villain?" A samurai shouted.

"When the villain went to General Wang Si's house, he was still the commander of the forbidden army in Beijing, Wang Si treated me like a guest, and asked his wife to make tea with her own hands, and his wife accidentally wet her sleeves, so she was able to see it." Chen Ji explained.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Since Madame has recognized General Wang Si's sword, I don't think there will be anything wrong, Hugh wants to listen to this nonsense."

Chen Ji sneered again.

"You don't believe in the villain, forget it, wait until you return to Wujun, and listen to what General Wang Si says."

Everyone was also suspicious of Chen Ji for a while, and the messenger was so angry that he swung a short whip and slammed it at Chen Ji a few times.

"Mrs. Wang was brought from the capital by General Dong Qi to rebel against the General's Mansion, how could there be a mistake? You're deliberately delaying your time in order to live longer, right? ”

Due to the wooden cage separating them, the short whip did not hit Chen Ji's body, but only left a blood-red bulge on his wrist.

Several samurai from Wushire gathered together again.

"If Dong Qi's guy is really cheating, won't we be scolded by General Wang Si?"

"Madame, if the assassin comes in disguise, won't we cause a big disaster?"

"You can't drag your wife out of the car and ask General Wang Si about his family, right?"

After a long time, a warrior walked up to Chen Ji's car and asked, "As you say, what else can I do to prove Madame Wang's identity?" ”

Chen Ji rubbed the back of his red and swollen hand and deliberately squinted his eyes to look at the samurai.

"If you believe the villain, let me out first, and wait for the villain to examine the sarcoma on Madame's wrist."

"Presumptuous." The messenger shouted, "How can Madame's jade wrist be displayed to outsiders at will? ”

Chen Ji deliberately turned his face away, made an indifferent look, and said, "The villain was in the palace a few days ago, and there were many women I saw, not to mention a general's wife, even if it was the Empress Dowager and Empress Zhang, the villain served him more than once to change his clothes, if he was as vulgar as you, ten heads would also be cut off." ”

Naturally, these people have also heard of the relationship between Chen Ji and Empress Dowager Wu, but many people don't want to believe it. Now, hearing him say this, I also feel that this is the only way to go.

"I'm waiting for these many people to be on the side, and I'm not afraid of any changes in this guy."

"Please ask the general to order this guy to be released, and the villain and others will follow to prove the innocence of General Dong Qi and His Majesty." A samurai from Wushire said to the messenger.

The messenger was angry and hateful, thought about it, and said, "This matter still needs to be agreed by Mrs. Wang." ”

"This is natural." The warrior said, striding towards Madame Wang's car.

Chen Ji's heart was about to jump out of his mouth, and he knew that this might be his only chance.
