Chapter 170, frowning
[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, April 19, Weishi, Tsing Yi Wei, Bei'an Ping Division Secret Room]
Nangong was silent, just between three words, and the torture instrument in his hand was just for show, as he expected, he was so slightly frightened, and Kang Youren spit out all the secret and illegal things he knew about King Jin to Nangong.
However, after all, Kang Youren has not had much time under the command of King Jin, and the secrets he knows about King Jin are extremely limited, except that King Jin once received 50,000 taels of bribes from Princess Han, which was what King Jin had ordered him to deal with Xu Ke.
When Nangong heard silently, King Jin once sent Kang Youren to secretly monitor the entire Xu Mansion, and bribed Dong Laifu, the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, so that the Dong housekeeper would report everything that happened in the Xu Mansion to him in detail around the clock. Nangong couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and said in his heart, Brother Xian, Brother Xian, what kind of housekeeper did you invite? For the sake of some silver taels, you were willing to do other people's eyeliner! No wonder you are busy outside, and your every move in the house has long been known!
Subsequently, Kang Youren told Nangong that the King of Jin had always suspected that there were demons hidden in Xu's mansion, and the reason why King Jin was able to tell the emperor about Xu Ke's crime of "fornicating with demons" was mostly based on his secret inquiry. After Nangong Qianhu heard this, he was immediately furious, and scolded, you are a vicious villain, not only bought the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion and secretly peeped into the privacy of others, but also aided the abuse, fabricated charges, and deliberately framed Xu Qianhu!
At that time, Nangong was silent, couldn't help but open the wooden box, took out the hammer and nails, and wanted to give Kang Youren's feet a few "slender nails".
Kang Youren did not dare to hide it, and in order to avoid being punished, he even prepared everything he knew.
When Nangong was silent and heard that Kang Youren had also given King Jin a "sleeping flower pill" to poison Xu Ke in the edict prison, he suddenly felt anxious in his heart. He hurriedly asked, has the King of Jin ever bought the inside line of Tsing Yi Wei? That "Sleeping Flower Pill", who does the King of Jin plan to borrow and send to the Imperial Prison?
However, when Li Xi instructed Song Jinhua to contact Shen Huan, Kang Youren had already left the Jin Palace, so Kang Youren did not know that the Jin King's inner line in Tsing Yiwei was Shen Huan, although Nangong asked him many times, Kang Youren only shook his head and didn't know.
Nangong was silent and suddenly thought of something, and asked Kang Youren again, have you ever known a person named "Pei Caibao"? Kang Youren thought hard about it, then nodded and said, It seems that he has heard the King of Jin say this name, but I don't know why the King of Jin would talk about this person.
Nangong was silent and immediately thought that it was no wonder that his subordinates could not catch Pei Caibao, it seemed that Pei Caibao had already fallen into the hands of King Jin.
Thinking back to earlier today, Shen Huan had asked him earnestly for someone, and after Nangong was silent and thought for a while, he had already guessed the reason.
It seems that Shen Huan has really fallen into the arms of King Jin completely. Not only did he help King Jin secretly capture Pei Caibao, but it is also very likely that the "Sleeping Flower Pill" that King Jin used to poison Xu Ke is now in Shen Huan's hands.
Nangong couldn't help but be deeply worried about Xu Ke in the edict prison, although he had ordered his subordinates to take close care of Xu Ke, and ensure that Xu Ke's food and drink were provided by a special person and not handled by others, however, Shen Huan was the governor in charge of the entire Tsing Yi Guard after all, if Shen Huan really wanted to poison a prisoner, there was always a way for him!
Thinking of this, Nangong couldn't sit still.
Xu Ke is not only a prisoner in the imperial prison, but also his brother. Whether in public or private, he didn't want Xu Ke to die suddenly in prison. If Xu Ke really had an accident, he, as the supreme official of the Northern Division, would naturally not be able to escape the punishment of the Son of Heaven, and at the same time, King Zhao and King Wei would not be able to spare him!
At this time, Kang Youren was still chattering about the trivial things he knew, including how Li Ciping, the king of Jin, lived a luxurious life and spent a lot of money, how he was lustful and dissolute, how he liked to travel in micro-clothes, and how to mess with flowers and grass everywhere, etc., Speaking of later, Kang Youren even confessed to the secret and illegal things he helped Li Zhi, the king of Chu, to do earlier......
For the extravagance and profligacy, arrogance and debauchery in the ordinary life of the King of Jin, Nangong Buyu was not very interested in listening, which prince was not like this?
Nangong was silent and then waved his hand, ordering Kang Youren not to say much about those trivial things, only to talk about what illegal actions the King of Jin had, for example, did the King of Jin ever think about supporting the army to rebel and ascend to the throne?
Although Kang Youren was dull in his mind, he also heard the weight of Nangong's words, he immediately shook his head like a rattle, and said in a loud voice, no, no!
At that moment, Nangong was silent and didn't ask any more, so he personally picked up the pen and wrote a confession by hand, roughly recording all kinds of illegal deeds of King Jin, and asked Kang Youren to sign and draw on the confession.
Hearing that Kang Youren was still the eldest young man of the Kangmen in Shuzhong, Nangong took matters into his own hands without saying a word, and with a simple search, he found more than a dozen packets of medicinal powder and pills from Kang Youren's body, looking at these poisons and poisonous powders that frightened everyone in the rivers and lakes, Nangong couldn't help frowning when he saw it.
Just in case, Nangong asked Kang Youren silently, is there an antidote to the "Sleeping Flower Poison Pill"?
Kang Youren was so frightened by Nangong's silence that the three souls lost one soul at this time, where did he dare to hide half a sentence? He hurriedly replied, the antidote is there, but only in the Kangmen General Altar, only because of this kind of poison attacks extremely quickly, often between breaths, the person who takes the poison has already died, so even if there is an antidote, it is often not used, so he did not bring it.
Nangong was silent and immediately snorted coldly, if he Xu Xian's brother has three long and two short, this first person to accompany the funeral is you, the eldest young master of the Kang family, who immediately bowed his head again and again, begging for mercy......
After saying that, Nangong left the secret room without saying a word and went back to his thousand-household office.
After that, he didn't embarrass Kang Youren again, but just ordered Ding Chunqiu to send someone to take care of him, and not to let anyone approach.
Nangong Buyu wanted to go to visit Xu Ke in the edict prison in person, and by the way, he once again told the guards there to strictly check Xu Ke's diet. However, after thinking about it, he ordered someone to call his subordinates, the chief Baihu Gu Xiang, who was in charge of the edict.
After seeing the ancient material incense, Nangong Qianhu didn't say much, went straight to the point, and only explained one thing about Gu Baihu:
Someone wants to poison Xu Ke, the prisoner in the Imperial Prison, and order you to guard it day and night, and keep an eye on it carefully
When Gu Caixiang heard that someone was going to poison Xu Ke secretly, his face changed dramatically at that time, and he had doubts in his heart, but when he saw that the face of the thousand households was like frost, he hurriedly bowed his head and responded to the order.
Looking at Gu Caixiang's back in the distance, Nangong couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
After the order was completed, Nangong was silent and did not delay any longer, and immediately went out and personally sent Kang Youren's confession to the palace of King Wei.
......
......
When Nangong returned to Tsing Yi Wei without saying a word, it was already the end of the Shen time, and the first time of the unitary time was coming, and Tsing Yi Wei had already reached the time when he was about to go down.
Almost at the same time, in the study room in the palace of the King of Jin, Li Ci, the king of Jin, sat with Song Jinhua again.
The two had been discussing for a long time, but the expressions on their faces were still sad.
Song Jinhua asked, "Did he really say that?"
Li Ci sighed and said: "The original words of the 'old thing' say, 'Don't fight with the fourth child!' According to the emperor's will, this big world will still be given to the fourth '...... in the future."
Song Jinhua was a little disappointed in his heart, and said a little angrily:
"What kind of is this! Now, the urgent matter in front of us is that Kang Youren has been arrested by the people of King Wei, how can we save people?
Li Ci shook his head and said dejectedly:
"Nothing else!"
Song Jinhua said: "However, we didn't fight with King Wei either!"
Li Ci said: "I dealt with Xu Ke before, it seems that I angered the fourth brother, I didn't expect that the fourth brother would fight back so quickly this time, and it would be ...... It's so awesome!"
Song Jinhua was extremely anxious and said, "That'...... Your Highness, even the 'old thing' won't help, now, what should we do?"
Li Ci sighed again:
"Ahem...... Right now, I have to go to King Wei's Mansion in person!"
Song Jinhua hurriedly asked, "Does Your Highness want to go to King Wei's Mansion in person to make amends to King Wei?"
Li Xi nodded.
Song Jinhua hurriedly said: "Your Highness, with the respect of the Prince of Qizhu, why is it like this?! Let's think of a way, maybe there is another way......
Li Ci smiled bitterly and said: "What Prince Qizhu, if Xiaokang really confesses to the king's private affairs, not to mention anything else, just Princess Han's 50,000 taels of silver can make my father wipe out the seven royal beads on my head in one go!"
Song Jinhua said worriedly: "But the King of Wei has always been a man of deep and straightforward nature, and I heard that he is not very broad-minded, even if His Royal Highness is willing to condescend to his dignity and personally come to the door to make amends to him, can he accept your feelings......?
Li Ci waved his hand and interrupted: "Jinhua, you can savor the two sentences of 'old things' again......"
Song Jinhua thought for a while, and then said:
"The 'old thing' said, 'Don't fight with the fourth child!' According to the emperor's will, this big world will still be given to the fourth child in the future.......' The meaning of these two sentences is to let you directly dissect your heart to the King of Wei, saying that you have no intention of taking the throne, and in the future, you will definitely support the King of Wei to ascend the throne?"
"Exactly!" Li Ci nodded frequently.
"Ahem......" Song Jinhua couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
