Assassin Truth
"Since the prince doesn't treat me as an outsider, I have a few words in Zhongtian today, and I dare to ask." Chi Zhongtian said.
The King nodded and said, "Okay, just ask." ”
"Lord Wang, what are you doing here?" Chi Zhongtian suddenly asked.
Hearing this thoughtless sentence, King Zun was stunned for a moment, and then asked as if he was a little puzzled: "Zhongtian, what do you mean by this?
"Lord Wang, you are planning to kill King Qing, what is Weishenme?" Chi Zhongtian said lightly.
"Ahh
When King Venerable heard Chi Zhongtian's words, he first stayed for a moment, and then exclaimed.
"Actually, I have long felt that something is wrong, when I came out of Lijiang City, you let the soldiers divide into two ways, but you didn't let King Qing go too fast, this doesn't seem to make sense, after arriving in Chongqing Mansion, you said you were sick, but I found that you should have eaten something to cause this to happen. ”
After Chi Zhongtian finished speaking, he quietly looked at King Zun, wanting to see what he would say.
By this time, the King had already risen from his chair, and his gray beard seemed to tremble.
"Zhongtian, are you too tired, why do you always talk nonsense?" said the king.
"Lord Wang, whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know better than me in your heart. Chi Zhongtian replied with a smile.
Without waiting for King Zun to answer, Chi Zhongtian continued: "Lord Wang, since I learned that you are sick, I have a vague premonition, so I sent someone to inform you overnight, and asked people to take King Qing back to Beijing along the path first, and then let people pretend to be King Qing to sit in the carriage, sure enough, I soon learned the news that King Qing was killed, and you suddenly fell ill, which caused me to be unable to fight King Qing as soon as possible, so that I gave others a chance to start, Lord Wang, do you not know this?"
"Zhongtian, you misunderstood. The King slowly regained his expression and said.
"Lord Wang, did I misunderstand, it doesn't matter, the route that King Qing walked is top secret, except for you and me, no one knows, even the guide, after walking a distance, I sent someone to inform, then you say, how did the assassin know where King Qing is?"
"Moreover, just now in the court, I made an observation, and when you saw that King Qing was not dead, the eyes revealed were not surprise, but incredible. ”
"Jomtien!"
Just as Chi Zhongtian was about to finish his sentence, King Zun interrupted him impatiently.
"Don't talk nonsense. The King continued.
"Lord Wang, you don't have to hide it from me, let's talk about it again, those assassins you sent are now in my hands. Chi Zhongtian said with a smile.
"What!"
"Don't panic, I have already set a trap, and their actions that night were the trick, and after they left, the sergeant of Shenwu Long Yangwei followed, and I don't know where they were, so I took them all. ”
After Chi Zhongtian finished speaking, King Zun's face immediately changed greatly.
"Lord Wang, do you want me to bring people here?" Chi Zhongtian asked.
"You!"
"Zhongtian, don't be nosy!"
It took a long time for the king to squeeze out such a sentence from between his teeth.
"Lord Wang, those assassins you sent have fallen into the hands of the emperor. Chi Zhongtian said.
"What!"
The king was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "You did it!"
"Lord Wang, at first I wasn't sure that it was your subordinate, I just handed over the person who intended to murder King Qing to the emperor according to common sense. "You, you, you!" The king was so angry that he said three of you in a row, and it seemed that he was really angry.
"Lord Wang, I have always respected you, but I didn't expect you to act like this, do you know how much we paid in order to rescue King Qing? Not to mention the ten cities, Lord Zhang Yunzhi lost his life, and the sergeants of the Shenwu Dragon Yang Wei are so much less, Lord Wang, think about it, are you willing to let these people die without turning a blind eye?" As soon as Chi Zhongtian mentioned these people, the mouth that was about to open closed again.
"Lord Wang, Zhongtian does not participate in the affairs of the imperial court, let alone any party disputes, I am just a general who leads the troops out, begging the prince, don't let our heroes die in vain. After saying that, Chi Zhongtian knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then turned to leave.
After Chi Zhongtian left, the king sat down weakly on the ground.
In fact, what Chi Zhongtian said was not wrong at all, those assassins were indeed sent by the king.
From the time he went, he had been arranging for people to follow him, and on several occasions, he had quietly slipped out to meet with the people he had arranged, and it was customary to wear a black cloak so as not to let people see his face.
That illness was indeed as Chi Zhongtian said, and he pretended to be himself.
It's just that Chi Zhongtian is so shrewd, even if the king pretends, he was still found by Chi Zhongtian in the end.
In fact, he already knew that the assassins he had captured were undoubtedly sent by the king.
In order not to tear his face, in order to be able to walk back and forth in the future, Chi Zhongtian didn't say it so much, anyway, just point to the end.
That night, after dinner, the emperor summoned King Qing in his bedroom.
King Qing's biological mother, Concubine Jin, has now fallen out of favor, so when he learned that King Qing was captured by thieves, he was also anxious every day and couldn't sleep at night.
"Son, see your father!" King Qing knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
The emperor was half-lying on the bed reading at this time, and when he heard the voice, he put the book on the bed, and then said: "Ten cities, in exchange for your life, your life is really valuable." The Emperor said.
"Father, the son is guilty, the son is guilty!" King Qing already knew about the emperor's throne, and he was very angry, so he didn't dare to fight back.
"What did you do every day when you were in Lijiang City?" the emperor suddenly asked.
"If you return to your father's words, your sons will inspect the military camp every day, and will send people to patrol the city, so as to be fully prepared to fight against thieves. "Oh, didn't you go out to play?" the Emperor asked.
"Back to his father's words, the son has no heart to play. King Qing replied unashamedly.
"Oh...... Then I want to ask you, how did you go to war?" the Emperor then asked.
At this time, King Qing didn't know how to answer.
If you tell the truth, it seems that you are too selfless, but if you don't tell the truth, if the emperor already knows in advance, then you are not looking for trouble?
