Chapter 623: Life Hangs by a Thread (3)
"This ......"
thought that Liu Xunyi was innocent, but unexpectedly, he took the initiative to admit the ugly thing in Lingqiu Mountain Stream, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and the eyes that looked at Liu Xunyi became more and more strange.
Suspicious, stunned, angry, regretful...... Everything you need, it's all the same.
Lin Fangda looked at Liu Xunyi with stunned eyes, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible......?
"Big brother, I'm sorry!" Liu Xunyi said ashamedly, "I sneaked to Lingqiu Mountain Stream that day while you were drunk......
"Did you hear it all?"
Yeluqin saw that the time had come, so he struck while the iron was hot and added fuel to the fire: "Liu Xunyi has personally admitted that he shot the Mongols that day. If he wasn't a spy of the imperial court, how could he be ambushed in the Lingqiu mountain stream?"
"No!" Liu Xunyi defended, "I didn't shoot Battle, I didn't do anything for the imperial court, but to remove trouble for the Xian Wangfu. ”
"Oh?" Xie Xuan raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully, "Could it be that the lord of the mansion once ordered you to intercept and kill the Mongolian envoy?"
"I ...... I'm in charge of it. Liu Xunyi said in a low voice, "Mansion Master, Second Master, you should know that I have always had no good impression of the Mongolian Imperial Court, and when they came to the Xianwang Mansion, I made my position clear in public. I know the Mongols' mind, they want to win over the lord of the province and do things for the Mongol Great Khan. As I said, if the lord of the house agrees to the demands of the Mongols, he will be spurned by the whole world. I didn't want the lord of the mansion to be charged with treason, and I didn't want all the disciples of the Xian Wang's Mansion to become lackeys of the Mongols, so I took it upon myself to intercept them halfway, and then threaten them to make the Mongol court abandon its plan to win over the lord. ”
"Liu Xunyi, you are so bold!" Huang Yulang reprimanded, "When will it be your turn to call the shots in the Xianwang Mansion? Do you know what you have done and almost brought disaster to the Xianwang Mansion?"
"At that time, I only wanted to intimidate with words, and I had no intention of hurting anyone, so as not to form a mortal enmity with the Mongols. Liu Xunyi explained, "But people are not as good as heaven, that day in the Lingqiu mountain stream, Qin Ku was one step ahead of me, and took the lead to intercept and kill the group of Mongols, and claimed to be on the orders of the King of Beixian, I had already noticed a hint at that time." In the end, when I saw Qin Ku deliberately letting Battelle go, I was sure that this was a well-designed planting. If Batel is allowed to leave alive, the Mongol court will definitely count this blood debt on the head of the Xianwang Mansion, and the consequences will be unimaginable. So, I had to shoot it with a cold arrow and cut it down. As a result, the Mongols, although suspicious, ...... At least there is no conclusive evidence. ”
"So, we should thank you?" Xie Xuan sneered, "Because of your self-determination, you accidentally saved our lives?"
"Don't dare to ...... below"
"And you!" Before Liu Xunyi could answer, Xie Xuan suddenly shot his cold gaze at Xun Qin and asked, "What is your intention in designing to frame the Xianwang Mansion?"
"What is my intention?" Xun Qin stared straight at the thoughtful Luo Tianjin, and asked rhetorically, "Don't the Luo Mansion Lord know?"
"This ......"
"That's it!"
Just when everyone was thinking about each other and speculating about each other, Luo Tianjin's eyes suddenly moved, and he looked back at Xun Qin, who frowned slightly, and said secretly: "I only want to ask, about the fact that Liu Xunyi is a spy of the imperial court, can Miss Xun Qin come up with conclusive evidence?"
"This ......"
At this moment, Xun Qin had gradually guessed Luo Tianjin's intentions, and he avoided the important again and again, obviously wanting to protect Liu Xunyi's life.
Today, even if Xun Qin comes up with real evidence, he is afraid that Luo Tianjin will not admit it, and he will still find other excuses to excuse Liu Xunyi.
Thinking of this, Xun Qin knew that it was impossible for him to get rid of Liu Xunyi, even if there was a mountain of ironclad evidence, thousands of words, under Luo Tianjin's insistence, he would be pale and powerless, and it would be useless.
In this case, instead of bothering with Liu Xunyi and arguing endlessly, it is better to be a favor and leave Luo Tianjin with three points of affection.
The most important thing is that Xun Qin doesn't want to be a clown who jumps off the beam and wastes his work in an environment that is impossible to reverse. Similarly, she didn't want to be toyed with by Luo Tianjin.
Thinking about it, a touch of self-deprecation suddenly flashed on Xun Qin's serious face, and in Yeluqin's anxious gaze, he slowly shook his head, and said helplessly: "This matter ...... I can't produce any evidence. ”
"Whew!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Xunyi's "bang" heart became much more steady, and he couldn't help but exhale a turbid breath in his mouth.
Looking at the disciples of the Xianwang Mansion again, in the face of the sudden turnaround, they all looked stunned, and looked at Xun Qin and Liu Xunyi in a daze, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
As if they didn't even understand what had just happened. I don't understand why the war of words in full swing suddenly died down and ended in a sloppy manner.
Hearing Xun Qin's answer, Luo Tianjin, Ye Luqin and Liu Xunyi's faces changed at the same time.
Interestingly, a hint of relief and approval flashed on Luo Tianjin's face. Jeluchin's face was filled with loss and worry.
As for Liu Xunyi, he has a lot of feelings, mixed tastes, both happy and surprised, moved and guilty, and indescribably complicated.
"Lord Luofu, in fact, ......"
"Lord Ning, don't worry, I know what you want to say. Luo Tianjin waved his hand and said, "Regarding the details of Liu Xunyi, I will check it repeatedly, neither wronged the good people, nor let go of the traitors." But after all, he is the black fan of the Xianwang Mansion, and he is my apprentice, he has made countless contributions to me over the years, born and died, without complaint or regret. He almost lost his life several times, and he had numerous scars on his body, these are indisputable facts. It would seem ...... if you condemn him to death on 'trumped-up' charges and erase his exploits over the years just because of your one-sided words Some can't make sense. After all, I didn't see him doing things for the imperial court, but he did his best for the Xianwang Mansion, and the people present were obvious to all. ”
"The lord of the mansion is wise!"
Seeing Luo Tianjin's mouth relaxed, Lin Fangda and the others were all excited, and Luo Ningyu cried with joy, secretly thanking God in his heart.
"But ......"
Of course, Liu Xunyi is not without fault. Luo Tianjin interrupted Yeluqin's argument again, "At least, in the matter of Lingqiu Mountain Stream, he and Xun Qin both have selfish intentions and are at fault. ”
"What do you mean?" Seeing that Luo Tianjin wanted to play fifty boards each, with an attitude of calming things, Yeluqin couldn't help but feel dissatisfied, and asked rhetorically, "In this way, the Lord of Luo Mansion doesn't believe us?"
"Definitely!" Luo Tianjin smiled vaguely, "But after all...... Seeing is believing, hearing is false. ”
"Actually, it's very simple to verify whether Liu Xunyi is a spy of the imperial court, the lord of Luofu only needs to send him to get Zhao Yuan's head ......"
"Lord Ning!" Before Yeluqin could finish speaking, Xun Qin suddenly interrupted, "The Lord of Luofu has his own measure in this matter, you and I don't need to say much." ”
Yeluqin was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand Xun Qin's thoughts. But when he cast his suspicious gaze on Luo Tianjin, he saw that Luo Tianjin was staring at him with unkind eyes, as if he had just lost his words.
"I'll find out about this slowly. After staring at each other for a moment, Luo Tianjin suddenly looked like a grim expression, and said with a straight face, "Before that, I won't wronged anyone." Someone came, loosened Liu Xunyi's clothes, and immediately restored his identity as a black fan. ”
"Yes!"
Hearing this, Liao Chuan and Liao Hai, who were overjoyed, hurriedly rushed forward and untied the hemp rope on Liu Xunyi's body.
When Liu Xunyi took off his shackles and regained his freedom, his gaze at Xun Qin was extremely entangled, and it seemed that he was ...... I can't bear it.
Although Liu Xunyi is not held responsible, he is at fault after all. Luo Tianjin's words changed sharply, and he said, "Therefore, the marriage of Liu Xunyi and Yu'er is temporarily put on hold as a punishment." ”
"Shhh
As soon as these words came out, everyone let out an exclamation. Especially Luo Ningyu, after hearing Luo Tianjin's order, she was stunned on the spot and didn't know what to say.
"Mansion master, we have sent out a wedding card, the heroes of the world will gather in the Xianwang Mansion on the eighth day of the lunar month, and the marriage will be canceled at this time, will it be ......?"
"It's okay!" Luo Tianjin smiled lightly, "On that day, I will personally explain to the heroes of the world." Moreover, I have another important thing to announce to the world, the eighth day of the lunar month is very suitable. As for Yu'er's marriage...... Discuss again. ”
Just one word, like a sharp sword pierced deep into Luo Ningyu's heart. On the other hand, Liu Xunyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had been blessed by misfortune, so as not to delay Luo Ningyu's life.
Huang Yulang asked, "Mansion Master, since Liu Xunyi is not guilty, what should Xun Qin do?"
"First, there was the theft of the 'Xuanshui Scroll', and then there was the ambush of the 'Lingqiu Mountain Stream', and today she framed the black fan without any evidence, this woman harbored evil intentions, and her crime was unforgivable. Deng Changchuan proposed, "If you don't punish it severely, it's not enough to calm your anger." ”
"This ......" Xie Xuan knew the importance of the Young Qin King, so he became more and more hesitant in front of Huang Yulang and Deng Changchuan, who didn't know the truth, and turned to Luo Tianjin, "Although Xun Qin is wrong, his sin is not death." What's more, the two times she married the Xian Wangfu were before the alliance between the Shaoqin King and the mansion master, so it was not a betrayal. As for framing Liu Xunyi...... Even the lord of the mansion said that he would make a final conclusion after a thorough investigation, so how could he judge that she had been framed today? Moreover, after Xun Qin entered the mansion of the virtuous king, she had repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and even if she had made a mistake, the lord of the mansion should not punish her with the death penalty. ”
Luo Tianjin turned a deaf ear to Xie Xuan's proposal, and instead turned his eyes to Liu Xunyi with great interest, and asked: "Xun Qin said that you are a spy sent by the imperial court, and you almost hurt you to get into the oil pot, but now you can't come up with conclusive evidence. In your opinion, does she deserve to die?"
"This ......" Liu Xunyi had just escaped death, and he couldn't guess Luo Tianjin's mind at this time, so he naturally didn't dare to speculate.
"It's better than this!" Seeing Liu Xunyi spitting out, Luo Tianjin waved his hand and said freely, "The person Xun Qin is targeting is you, and now I will leave her life and death to you." You can repay her with virtue and let her go. You can also return it with a tooth for a tooth and throw it down the pan. How?"
Hearing this, the next three disciples came out one after another to instigate him, hoping that Liu Xunyi would throw Xun Qin into the oil pot to vent his shame and anger.
However, Xun Qin, who was in the center of the whirlpool, was neither humble nor arrogant, looking at Liu Xunyi who was frowning without squinting, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It seems to be ridiculed, it is contemptuous, it is like a bitter smile, it is like a miserable laugh......
At this moment, Liu Xunyi's heart was extremely entangled. After all, killing Xun Qin is definitely the best time to turn things around.
As long as Xun Qin is killed, the relationship between the King of Shaoqin and Luo Tianjin will be destroyed, and it will be beneficial to the Great Song Dynasty. Having said that, no matter how Ren Liu Xunyi paralyzed himself and how ruthless he was, he was never able to pass the hurdle in his heart.
He knew that not killing Xun Qin meant missing the best opportunity to stop Luo Tianjin's rebellion.
He knows that saving Xunqin's life today may cost more lives in the future.
Liu Xunyi didn't know if such a choice was worth it, but he knew that if he killed Xun Qin, Liu Xunyi would no longer be Liu Xunyi.
In the end, Liu Xunyi's eyes were ruthless, and he came to Xun Qin with a knife. Under the expectant and nervous gaze of the surroundings, he picked open the rope on Xun Qin's body with a knife, and while letting her go, he muttered, "You and I are clear." ”
