Chapter 239: Superb acting
Song Zhe moved out the names of Zhu Youzhen and Wen Tiren, coupled with his identity as the West Factory, and easily suppressed Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui.
But after thinking about it for a while, Wang Li always felt that something was not right!
Normally, there is no problem for the envoy of Huang Taiji to come to the city and sneak into the city from high!
As a eunuch who is the celebrant eunuch, coupled with the identity of the prison army, he has this power!
Judging from his questioning, he was skeptical about the matter of peace, which is a good thing!
However, in order not to show his flaws, Song Zhe dragged him out of the main hall in front of the Houjin envoy, and then knocked him out, which is a problem!
When Gao Qiqian wakes up, he must think that the West Factory is negotiating peace!
In this way, won't the plan to blame Wen Tiren fall through?
Song Zhe also realized that something was wrong, and said tentatively: "Or, let's not do it again and again, and get rid of Gao Qiqian?"
As for the Long Live Lord's side, it is very easy to do: let's just say that he supervised the battle at the head of the city, and accidentally hit the enemy's stray arrow, and died! ”
"In normal times, this can fool the past!" Wang Li shook his head, his face solemn: "But don't forget, the envoy of Huang Taiji entered the city with a swagger!"
Not only Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui knew, but the historians sent by the Long Live Lord also knew!
There are no Eight Banners attacking the city in Daling River, how can Gao Qiqian die in the middle of the arrow?
Could it be that the historians should also be killed? ”
"Isn't it just two historians, just do it!" Song Zhe still didn't care, and smiled: "It's a big deal, let's just say that the battle in the Daling River is fierce, and Gao Qiqian and the historian have all been hit!" ”
"No way!"
Wang Li still shook his head and behaved quite cautiously: "The soldiers in the city are not Jinyi Guards, and their tone is not tight!"
If you do it way, something will happen sooner or later! ”
"But...... Alas! ”
Song Zhe also had no choice, thought for a while, and asked tentatively: "That...... What do you mean? ”
"Lin Ze'an is negotiating with the envoys, no matter what the result is, kill all the envoys of Huang Taiji!"
"Huh?"
Song Zhe opened his mouth wide in shock, and hurriedly persuaded: "Factory father, you didn't say anything wrong, right?"
The two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed!
If we kill the envoy, the peace negotiation with Huang Taiji can only be suspended, how to get the national letter to blame Wen Tiren? ”
"Just do what I say, I have my own way! You keep an eye on it here, and I'll go see the high diving! ”
……
In the dungeon, Gao Qiqian soon woke up.
His whole body was tightly tied with hemp rope, and his mouth was stuffed with rags.
He knew that the person who stunned him was Song Zhe, so he glared at Wang Li angrily, humming in his throat.
I can't understand his words, but I can feel that he is scolding!
"Shh
Wang Li made a gesture of breathing, and slowly untied his hands and feet, which seemed harmless to humans and animals.
"Gonggong Gao, if Commander Song doesn't stun you, it will be difficult to uproot the traitorous party in the court!"
Hearing this, Gao Qiqian stopped humming, and the anger in his eyes slowly dissipated.
Seeing that his emotions eased up, Wang Li removed the rag from his mouth and continued: "According to the top secret information from Xichang, Wen Tiren pretended to pass on the emperor's order and tried to negotiate peace with Jiannu!
This matter, the West Factory has been secretly watching!
Your reckless questioning before almost ruined me, do you know? ”
"Wen Tiren? Cabinet First Aid, Wen Tiren? Will he make peace with Jiannu? Gao Qiqian's face was full of doubts, obviously not believing Wang Li's words: "What benefits can he get from negotiating peace with Jiannu?"
As you just said, he secretly negotiated peace with Jiannu!
In this case, how could the messenger of Jiannu come to Daling River openly? ”
"This matter, Xichang has been following up!" Wang Li smiled mysteriously and completely removed the hemp rope on Gao Qiqian's body: "As long as you don't talk nonsense and fully cooperate with me, you will soon have an answer!" ”
"What do you mean?" Gao Qiqian was even more puzzled, rubbed his sore shoulders, and stared at Wang Li intently: "At this time, in the main hall, who is meeting with Jiannu?" ”
"There are not only Wen Tiren's cronies, but also Xichang Jinyiwei!" Wang Li handed over a glass of warm wine, then sat down next to the stove and said slowly:
"I arrested their parents, wives and children, and they can only cooperate with Xichang!
What I want to check now is the purpose of Wen Tiren's false decree!
In the meantime, I'm ready to make a plan!
If God blesses you, you may have the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Eight Banners!
So, you almost missed my big thing!
You must remember that before this matter is revealed, you must not write a book to Banzai, so as not to startle the snake!
You know, Long Live is in a hurry, and he can't put sand in his eyes!
Do you understand? ”
"Oh...... Understood, understood......"
Gao Qiqian nodded as if he didn't understand, and drank the hot wine in his glass.
……
At the head of the city, Wang Li and Gao Qiqian walked side by side, Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui were full of doubts, but they didn't ask too much.
In full view of everyone, several messengers swaggered out of the city gate, got into a carriage and left slowly.
Suddenly, a few ironclad brocade guards rode out of the city and chased after them!
In the stunned eyes of everyone, the envoys of the Qing Kingdom were all cut down!
In the eyes of all the soldiers, Wang Li's move is really strange!
Finally, Wu Sangui couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Governor Wang, what did the Jiannu envoy say when the peace was negotiated before?"
If you want to kill them, you can do it in the city, right?
Why let them out of the city and then send men to hunt them down? ”
"Huh!"
Wang Li smiled indifferently, looked at the historian beside him, twisted his neck, and said, "I am a Ming dynasty, but a state of etiquette!"
The envoys of Jiannu came from afar, and they must ensure their safety, so as to fulfill the friendship of the landlords, and there is no reason to kill!
However, once they left the city, the messenger's mission was over; If I kill them at this time, it won't be killed, right? ”
Everyone looked confused, always feeling that there was something wrong with Wang Li's words, but they had no way to refute them.
On the contrary, the historian's face was indifferent, his heart was like water, and he truthfully wrote down everything.
So far, in Gao Qiqian's view, there is no suspicion of collaborating with the enemy.
There are still too many things to ask, but it's a pity that Wang Li has already left.
……
The previous peace negotiation was still made by Lin Ze'an.
It's just that before the peace negotiation, Song Zhe confessed to him!
Knowing that it was a fake peace, Lin Zean was still full of acting skills!
After some verbal battles, the two sides reached a preliminary armistice agreement: the Ming army recalled Cao Wenzhao, and the main force withdrew from the Daling River; At the same time, the main forces of the Eight Banners also withdrew from Xiping Fort and Quang Ninh.
If there is no such thing as "chasing and killing the messenger", the two sides will be able to sign the peace credentials immediately!
Then, from Gao Qi to Zhu You's inspection, it is easy to get rid of Wen Tiren!
It's just that, now it seems, there is no hope for this!
Song Zhe regretted it, but Wang Li was full of confidence: "Send Lin Ze'an to Xiping Fort again, this time, you will be able to sign the letter of state!" ”
"Factory father, let's kill Huang Taiji's envoy!
Did you take him for a fool, or did you drink a few more drinks and become unconscious?
If Lin Ze'an went to Xiping Fort, would Huang Taiji let him go?
You still want to sign the credentials, you're not kidding, are you? ”
"No, it's not as scary as you think!" Wang Li smiled, and turned his gaze to Lin Ze'an: "Long live the peace between Lord Long Live and Wen Tiren, Xichang doesn't know, understand?" ”
"Uh......"
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Ze'an actually nodded!
Because, Wang Li's words are very reasonable!
Regardless of the previous dynasties, or the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty at this time, there are power struggles and factional disputes between the DPRK and China!
Therefore, the peace negotiation between the two countries is known only to a very small number of high-ranking officials before the official signing of the credentials!
If Wen Tiren really came to discuss peace on behalf of Zhu Youzhen, it could only be done in secret, and it must be hidden from Xichang and the generals in the army!
However, Huang Taiji's envoy swaggered to Daling River, wouldn't the world know about the peace talks?
In the case of not signing the letter of state, Xichang did not know about this matter, in order to maintain the national system of the Ming Dynasty, he accidentally killed the Houjin envoy, which is normal!
Since Huang Taiji has the will to negotiate peace, when the time comes, he will make some "concessions" as compensation for the manslaughter of the messenger, and this matter will not be over!
And Lin Ze'an, because he wants to return the peace letters of the two sides, even if Huang Taiji is still angry, he will not attack him!
Therefore, if he goes to Xipingbao again, he will be safe and sound!
……
This night, Lin Ze'an quietly went to "negotiate peace" again, and Wang Li also sent Jinyi Wei to Beijing to secretly arrest Wen Tiren's family!
It's just that when he made an appointment with Gao Qiqian, he cried with a sad face, and had another explanation!
"Alas, it's all because I'm angry, I can't help but kill the Jiannu envoy for a while, and it's difficult to get evidence of Lord Wen's collaboration with the enemy!"
Gao Qiqian seemed to have expected it, and was about to speak, when Wang Li opened his mouth again: "Grandpa Gao, when you give a book to Lord Long Live, don't mention Lord Wen's name!"
In the absence of ironclad evidence, we must not arbitrarily frame important ministers of the DPRK and the central government! ”
"Factory father, didn't you arrest Wen Tiren's envoy? Doesn't it count as evidence for them to come forward to testify? ”
"No, no!"
Wang Li's head shook like a rattle, and Zhengse said: "Lord Wen is the head of the cabinet, just based on the words of a few villains, this is far from enough!"
I work in the West Factory, and I have always asked for evidence!
In the absence of real evidence, in the case of Lord Wen's motives are unknown, just because of "suspicion", it is very likely to frame Zhongliang!
If it causes turmoil in the imperial court, I will be disturbed!
So, I have beheaded all the captured envoys of the council and the messengers! Let's stop here! ”
"The factory is really cautious!"
Gao Qiqian nodded again and again, although he was praising in his mouth, he did not fully agree with Wang Li's statement!
At the beginning, Gao Qiqian was skeptical about Wen Tiren's collaboration with the enemy and betrayal of the country!
The biggest suspicion is Wen Tiren's motives - he is not a seven-rank petty official, but the first assistant of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty!
What kind of official position does Huang Taiji have to show in order to bribe him?
If he is said to be a collaborator, no one will believe him!
However, Wang Li suggested "stop here", but Gao Qiqian refused to stop easily!
What if, Wen Tiren really collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country?
That's what the Jiannu envoy said when he entered the city!
This is no small feat!
If you don't find out, how can you be worthy of the trust of Long Live Lord?
It's just that where should this matter be investigated?
Gao Qiqian was embarrassed, and Song Zhe hurriedly entered the hall: "Factory father, factory father!" When I was patrolling the city, I found a fine work! ”
"Oh? Secret agents? ”
Wang Li replied casually, and suddenly realized that this was not a rehearsal rhetoric in advance!
Song Zhe's face showed a rare look of fear!
Realizing that something was wrong, Wang Li couldn't be calm anymore, and stood up suddenly: "Meticulous? What is the fine work? ”
"Uh...... It is indeed a fine work! Song Zhe looked at Gao Qiqian, then at Wang Li, and said hesitantly: "Two fine works, by the ditch, are exchanging news with the Jurchens!" ”
Speaking of this, Song Zhe stopped.
Seeing that Wang Li didn't plan to hide from Gao Qiqian, he made up his mind and continued: "The Jurchens have been killed, and I injured one of them!
It's a pity that the other one is very strong in martial arts, and I chased it for several miles and didn't catch up;
By the time I returned, the wounded Hosaku had already died of poison and didn't ask anything!
However, when I fought the man who escaped, he accidentally dropped this! ”
Seeing what Song Zhe presented, Wang Li's heart tightened!
Suddenly, his face became murderous!
This thing in front of me turned out to be a special seal for the West Factory to transmit news!
It's just that it's a forgery!
I have been investigating this matter for three years, and I have no clue!
Unexpectedly, I met it in Daling River!
It is almost certain that the mastermind behind the scenes must be in the army!
Noticing that Wang Li's face was wrong, he asked tentatively, "Commander Song said carefully, but Wen Tiren sent it?" ”
"No, it shouldn't be him!
I pay attention to evidence in my West Factory, and I will not wronged anyone! ”
When he said this, Wang Li's face was really not red and his heart was not beating!
The expression and murderous aura on his face look like a righteous gentleman who enforces the law impartially!
Therefore, Gao Qiqian would never have dreamed that the person who was fabricating evidence to frame Wen Tiren was the righteous gentleman in front of him
