Chapter 319: A Shocking Secret (1st Update)
Xu Jing was slightly stunned.
Those captives are all Li Yuan's people, how can what they say have anything to do with her?
Those who were captured were all locked up in the dungeon of the mansion, and after Xu Jing finished dressing up, she was taken by Cheng Xiao and hurriedly walked over.
Xiang Youzheng was guarding outside the dungeon, and when he saw her, he immediately said: "Madam, please wait here, the villain will go in to report that Mrs. Langjun is here." ”
Xu Jing said: "I'll just go in." ”
Xiang You's face was a little unnatural, "The environment inside is dirty and bloody, and Lang Jun told me not to let Mrs. in, so I was worried about bumping into Mrs. ”
Xu Jing raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking of the ancient method of interrogating sinners that she had seen in books before, and she didn't have any desire to go in.
Although she is not afraid of bloody and horrific images, she has little interest in watching people being tortured.
Xiao Yi and Zhao Jingxuan came out quickly, the two men were both Longzhang Fengzi, when they came out of the dungeon, in addition to bringing a little bit of the coldness of the dungeon, it was really hard to imagine what they had just done in the dungeon.
Seeing the tiredness on Xiao Yi's face, Xu Jing frowned slightly, stepped forward quickly, and said, "You didn't sleep well last night?" ”
Xiao Yi glanced at the woman in front of him carefully, and saw that she was only wearing a large lapel shawl that didn't look very thick on the outside of her Hunan cardigan skirt, so she couldn't help but reach out and pull her to her side, and said in a low voice: "Wear so little, isn't it cold?" ”
"This jacket is lined, it looks thin, but it's actually very warm."
Xu Jing didn't change the topic by him, looked at him fixedly and said, "You have an uncomfortable wound and haven't slept well?" ”
She slept well last night and had no dreams.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile lowly, gently rubbed the back of her silky hand under the cover of her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "My injury is not a big deal, you don't have to worry too much, I can't sleep well, it's just ...... Some recognize the bed. ”
The real reason, he didn't have the face to say.
Especially in this big picture.
Recognize the bed? He has been in Lingzhou for more than half a month, does he still recognize the bed?
Xu Jing suddenly glanced at him suspiciously.
Zhao Jingxuan, who was blinded by this couple who was blinded early in the morning, couldn't help but grin, and said angrily: "Both, have you forgotten that there is another person here?" Yan Ci, I know that you baby your daughter-in-law, but at this time you are still in the office, you have to flirt and scold, and I will finish the matter. ”
He's angry! The next time he goes out to work, he will also take his wife with him!
This early morning is dazzling in front of him, as if no one cares about his wife!
Facing Zhao Shizi, who was like his own brother, Xiao Yi was still very respectful, and immediately cleaned up his mood, turned to Zhao Jingxuan and said: "I don't dare to forget Zhao Shizi, this is not the place to talk, let's go to the tea room next to it first." ”
As he spoke, he took Xu Jing and walked into the tearoom next to him with Zhao Jingxuan.
As soon as Xu Jing sat down, he couldn't help but ask, "What about Cui Yuanjun's father and son?" ”
She thought she would see them this time.
Xiao Yi poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Xu Jing, and said: "Although yesterday's war was not long, all parts of Lingzhou still suffered a lot of damage, Cui Han and his son were busy cleaning up the mess outside, after all, they suffered this catastrophe near the end of the year, and the people were not happy, it is best to calm down this injury in the shortest possible time." ”
That's right, it's December, less than a month before the Chinese New Year.
Fortunately, the people of Lingzhou have long been accustomed to war, and after Xu Jing entered the city yesterday, he took a general look, and many people have already cheered up and rebuilt their homes in an orderly manner.
She held the teacup with her hands to keep warm, and said, "Chunyang said, when you interrogated those captives this morning, you asked about something related to me?" ”
As soon as she said this, Xiao Yi and Zhao Jingxuan couldn't help but glance at each other, and finally Xiao Yi said: "It's not related to you, I just think that you might want to know about it."
In the dungeon of the government today, in addition to the few generals we captured yesterday, there is also Li Yuan, and when the time comes to return to Beijing, I will escort them back together.
Previously, we have deduced that Cui Han is likely to have some handle of Li Yuan in his hands, so Li Yuan will want to kill him all, last night, Zhao Shizi had an in-depth chat with Cui Han's father and son, and determined that the reason why Li Yuan targeted them like this was that they knew a secret of Li Yuan. ”
Xu Jing couldn't help but look at Zhao Jingxuan, Zhao Jingxuan took a sip of hot tea, and then said: "About a month and a half ago, on Li Yuan's fortieth birthday, he held a banquet in Yuanzhou, because Yuanzhou, where Li Yuan was stationed, was next door to Lingzhou, Cui Han personally went to Yuanzhou to give Li Yuan a gift, but inadvertently, he bumped into a concubine in Li Yuan's family who was jealous and made trouble because of the dispute, and shouted out that Li Yuan colluded with the people of the DPRK and China to rebel.
Although Cui Han immediately avoided it and pretended not to hear the concubine's words, Li Yuan was suspicious by nature, and he would rather kill by mistake than let it go. ”
Li Yuan colluded with the Koreans?
Xu Jing's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he said, "Could it be that Li Yuan is also a member of the Xingwang faction?" ”
What she knows, the most anti-resentful person in the court now is King Xing.
Zhao Jingxuan shook his head, "Things are far from being that simple. ”
Xu Jing was slightly stunned, and listened to Xiao Yi on the side and said: "Ah Jing, do you remember that when you investigated the case of the murder of the Zhao family's chief Liao, I said that King Xing may be just a pawn of a larger force?" That force began to lay out as early as the Rebellion of the Martial King twelve years ago, intending to subvert Great Chu? ”
Xu Jing remembered it to herself, took a light breath and said, "What you mean is that the person Li Yuan obeys is not King Xing, but ...... What is the bigger force behind King Xing? ”
"That's right."
Zhao Jingxuan's face was solemn, and he said: "The reason why Li Yuan took such a big effort to completely eradicate Cui Han is not only because Cui Han knew that he intended to rebel, but also because the concubine at the beginning also said a ...... It is enough to subvert the shocking secret of Da Chu.
She said that the DPRK-China forces colluded with Li Yuan were one of the four major families of Dachu......
However, before she could tell which one it was, she was caught by Li Yuan's people. ”
Xu Jing couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The four major families of Great Chu - Zhao, Xiao, Jiang, and Wang, the forces behind King Xing, turned out to be ...... It's one of the four!
These four families, each family has enough power in their hands to shake half of the Great Chu, if it is one of them who has been lurking behind it, it is indeed completely in line with the characteristics of the person behind the scenes!
And the two people sitting here belong to two of the four major families.
Seeing Xu Jing unconsciously glancing at their gaze, Zhao Jingxuan smiled helplessly and said, "Although I am the sect son of the Zhao family, there are many people in the Zhao family, and I don't dare to say that our Zhao family is completely fine until we thoroughly investigate everyone." ”
What he can be sure of is that there is no problem with their family, but there are thousands of people in the Zhao family, and any one of them who stands up can say that they represent the Zhao family, and he really doesn't know if they have some thoughts that they shouldn't have.
But the person who can collude with Li Yuan and have been manipulating King Xing behind his back must not be a small person, either in a high position in the court, or in the army has a certain amount of power, it is not difficult to investigate.
He said, looked at Xiao Yi, and said, "And Yan Ci left the Xiao family as early as when he was ten years old, but I'm afraid that you don't know what the Xiao family looks like now." ”
