Chapter 238: Small Kindness and Great Righteousness
Still in that small courtyard, everyone saw Dong Cheng who was standing tall and had a broken arm.
Ji Yunchen hesitated: "Are you really Dong Cheng?" ”
A few years ago, he saw Dong Cheng, a big burly man with a pair of bright eyes. But the person in front of him couldn't find the shadow of Dong Cheng back then.
Dong Cheng bowed and saluted: "Dong Cheng has seen His Royal Highness the King of the County." ”
Everyone sat down and talked.
Dong Cheng calmly talked about his fugitive career.
Years later, Lu Yiming sent his subordinates, saying that he was visiting him, Dong Cheng kept an eye on it, excused himself to relieve himself, and saw that the man poured powder into the wine jug, he was sure that this person was here to kill him, so he ran away overnight, but he did not leave Mingzhou, and after making signs of him leaving the city, he quietly sneaked back to Mingzhou City and hid in an empty house rumored to be haunted.
In the middle, he went back to his home, and heard from his family that there were people looking for him in the government, but he was not sure if the people in the government were entrusted by Lu Yiming, so he didn't dare to show up.
After hiding like this for a month, he felt that it was not a way to hide all the time, he wanted to find the little county king in the capital, if there was anyone in this world who was interested in the things of the year and had the ability to compete with Lu Yiming, it was the little county king.
He knew too well the routine of Lu Yiming's secret guards, this is what they did when they chased and killed Xu Jiang, so he didn't dare to take the big road along the way, and went to the deep mountains and old forests to drill, he thought that his whereabouts were hidden enough, but he didn't expect to be found by Han Shu.
In short, it is not easy to come to the capital.
Gu Zhou stopped and bowed slightly: "When you get here, you can rest assured." Let's talk about the past! ”
Dong Cheng hesitated and spoke: "I only know that Lu Yiming received a secret letter before the incident, a secret letter from Beijing. Then Lu Yiming asked me to go to Qinshan Road, and ordered the defenders there to destroy Qinshan Road, but it should be done by chance, so that people could not see that it was man-made destruction, I told the people of Qinshan Road, we received a secret report, the Dayuan Army wanted to touch from Qinshan Road, and raid the rear, and the defenders of Qinshan Road did not suspect him and did so. In fact, I didn't know if this was true or false at the time, and I always only listened to Lu Yiming's orders, without asking the reason. ”
He was loyal to Lu Yiming, and even after knowing that Lu Yiming had killed General Shangguan, he still chose to continue to be loyal, and even broke an arm in order to save Lu Yiming. As a result, Lu Yiming still wanted to kill him.
"Lu Yiming asked the spies to fake the news, saying that the enemy army was found by the Huanshui River, and then the little county king proposed to take the Qinshan Road, and I realized that the arrangement of the Qinshan Road was set up to block the little county king. Everyone knows what happened later, Gubei was lost, and the 100,000 Zhenbei Army was wiped out. ”
Jiang Wanning said coldly: "Have you ever regretted seeing the tragic situation in Gubei?" If Lu Yiming hadn't been murderous to you, would you never have said it? ”
Dong Cheng's face was ashamed: "He saved my life." ”
"In this way, in the face of Xiao En and Great Righteousness, you chose Xiao En." Jiang Wanning's voice became more and more cold.
"Don't think that if you say this, you will be able to wash away your sins, and the 100,000 heroic spirits of the Zhenbei Army are watching from the sky."
Jiang Wanning only felt that there was no way to vent her anger, if it weren't for Gu Zhouzhu and Ji Yunchen who had been tracking down, so that Lu Yiming felt the crisis, and then sent someone to kill Dong Cheng, Dong Cheng would definitely rot these secrets in his stomach.
Lu Yiming and the people who gave orders to Lu Yiming, as well as Dong Cheng, who carried out the orders, were all murderers, their hands were stained with the blood of 100,000 Zhenbei Army, and the crimes they committed were unredeemable and never worthy of forgiveness
Jiang Wanning got up and left the study and went out to breathe.
Ji Yunchen looked at Gu Zhouzhu in astonishment, what's wrong with her? He hadn't made a fortune yet, but she was angry.
Gu Zhou stopped and sighed silently, no one was more qualified to be angry than her.
Gu Zhou stopped adjusting his mood and said, "Are there any more clues about that secret letter?" ”
Dong Cheng shook his head: "I only know that it was sent from the capital." ”
"What about the handwriting? Have you ever seen the handwriting on it? ”
"There was no handwriting on the envelope, only a plum stamp on it."
Gu Zhou frowned, it was plum blossoms again, the woman who visited Prince Suhe late at night had the fragrance of plum blossoms on her body, and the envelope that Lu Yiming received had plum blossom stamps on it.
"Dong Cheng, when we collect more evidence, are you willing to identify Lu Yiming in court?" Ji Yunchen asked.
Dong Cheng did not hesitate: "Yes." ”
So far, he has nothing to scruple about, even if he is questioned at that time, and his head falls to the ground, he will be regarded as making amends to the 100,000 Zhenbei Army.
"Okay, you can live here with peace of mind, don't step out of this courtyard, if you think of anything, let Han Shu report to Lord Gu at any time."
"Xiaojun Wang, the spy who ordered the order back then is not dead, Lu Yiming asked me to deal with it, this person is my fellow countryman, I can't do it, let him go, get him a certificate of disability and discharge, let him hide incognito, and others should be in Yongzhou."
Gu Zhou's eyes lit up: "How can I find him?" ”
After the matter was dealt with, Gu Zhou stopped out of the study and found Jiang Wanning by the lotus pond in the backyard.
"They'll all be judged, I promise." Gu Zhou stopped.
Jiang Wanning said sadly: "But the people who died in Gubei can't come back." ”
A few days before the siege, my father was still unimpressed, and my father was very confident that reinforcements would come.
Her father said that when the war was over, he would return to Beijing to help her get married.
also counted a few brothers and asked the sister to go to the front.
The soldiers also encouraged each other, saying that they would have a good New Year when they killed and retreated the Dayuan soldiers.
The people of Gubei could have evacuated, but they trusted the Zhenbei Army and refused to leave, and wanted to protect their homes with the Zhenbei Army.
As a result, reinforcements did not come, and Gubei City was slaughtered.
Gu Zhou stopped reaching out and wanted to touch her hair and give her some comfort, but his hand stayed in the air for a moment and then withdrew it.
It seems that nothing can comfort the grief and indignation in her heart!
Only by letting the truth be revealed to the world and comforting the old general Shangguan and the heroic souls of the 100,000 Zhenbei Army may be able to reduce the pain in her heart a little.
"All we can do is to uncover the truth, fulfill their unfulfilled wishes, and protect the people of Daqi." Gu Zhou stopped.
Jiang Wanning nodded, the deceased is gone, and the past is difficult to trace, she understands this truth, people can only move forward when they live, and they can't turn back.
She just thought of her father and brother, the soldiers, and the people of Gubei, and she felt too uncomfortable.
She had restrained herself from thinking about it very much.
When I saw Dong Cheng today, I couldn't help but think about it again when I heard him say that.
"Ah Ning, that day is really not far away." Gu Zhou stopped and looked at the swimming fish in the pool, swimming and free, but Lu Yiming, as well as the people who planned all this, would not be at ease for long.
Jiang Wanning snorted, yes, the four-year investigation is coming to an end.
