The crow flew away and disappeared, as if it was deeply immersed in the dark night, and immediately merged into one, no matter how the naked eye saw it, there was no trace of it.
Ji Yunshu raised his head slightly and let out a long sigh.
The weather is not as hot as it used to be recently. The early autumn season has gradually turned cooler. The breeze brushed against my face, soft and powerful, but very comfortable.
She tucked her cold hands into the placket, clenched her fists a few times, groaned again, and stood in the yard for a while.
I carefully combed the matter of Hou Ye's sneaking from beginning to end.
Bloody handprints on plaques
A few entangled trees at the entrance to the palace
A rockery that was deliberately pried down
Coupled with Cai Da's suicide by biting his tongue, did he really commit suicide because he killed his mother by mistake
And the child's voice, if it was a fake, it would be unreasonable that Jing Rong couldn't even notice it when he was in the ancestral hall!
What is hidden behind this incident
In other words, how many people were involved in the Hou Mansion
After thinking about the incident one by one, she rushed into the air and called out "Zi Jin".
Shi Zijin's figure fell quickly and stood beside her, "What are your orders, sir?"
Although she knew that Ji Yunshu was a woman, she still called out "Sir" habitually.
Ji Yunshu sternly instructed, "Wait a minute, go and see in secret in the Hou's Mansion to see if there are any suspicious people or suspicious things. If there is any situation, hurry up and let me know."
"Yes." Answer.
Just as he was going to investigate, he was stopped by Ji Yunshu again.
"Zi Jin."
"What else do you want sir?"
"Actually, you don't have to stay by my side all the time. If I have nothing to do, you should pay more attention to rest."
"Sir, don't worry about me. It is a great honor for me to be appointed by the prince to protect the gentleman. Moreover, the prince said that the Hou residence is not peaceful, so I should always stay by the gentleman's side to protect him and not leave."
very serious.
Ji Yunshu said to her, "This is Hou's mansion, and there are mansion soldiers watching outside. It will be alright. You are always like this, what should you do if you are exhausted?"
"But the lord has an order, and you must not disobey. In comparison, the safety of Mr. is more important."
"Why didn't I realize you were so stubborn before." Ji Yunshu humiliated her.
This martial artist is rigid, not to mention Shi Zijin, who is taciturn.
Shi Zijin did not refute her words, but remained silent.
That face is obviously a woman, but it is a little less gentle and more cold-blooded, always cold and unsmiling, especially those eyes, once they are cold, they have a strong murderous aura, which makes people uncomfortable Dare to look directly, perhaps, it was because she was full of scars on the Shura field since she was a child, and she fought desperately to survive, that she cultivated her tough but loyal temperament.
How can such a person not be admired by Ji Yunshu
but-
Like Jing Rong, they are more stubborn.
What a stubborn little wolf.
Ji Yunshu sighed and had to say, "Okay, go check it out first."
"Yes."
Shi Zijin cupped his hands and disappeared, just like the crow before, disappeared without a trace.
"Iron Lady."
Ji Yunshu spoke into the air with a faint smile on his lips, and entered the room.
On the other side, Jing Rong just turned back to his courtyard.
Lang Bo handed him a letter with a solemn expression.
"From Yicheng."
"when?"
"just."
Jing Rong took the letter and hurriedly entered the room before opening the letter. It was densely filled with words, and the handwriting could not be described as neat, so it could be seen that it was not from the hands of literati.
As he watched, Lang Bo said, "Since the death of Empress Lastshu, almost all of the Kong family have dispersed to the capital. Although Kong Qu, the former pioneer of the army, went to Yicheng, which is far northwest, although it is far away from the capital, it is still suitable for The city is the fortress of Huyi's entry into the pass, and it plays an important role. Now Kong Qu is the lord of the city, and he can live in peace in the northwest. Moreover, when Kong Qu was in Beijing, he was a proud person. This time, the prince wanted to borrow his soldiers. To prepare for the resistance against King Yi in the future, I'm afraid... a little difficult."
It's true!
Since the death of Empress Lastshu, the power of the Kong family has long since declined, and the few remaining useful ones have all dispersed to the capital. Kong Qu is stubborn and arrogant. The party competed for the throne, so I invited Ying to Yicheng after the death of Empress Lastshu. I never set foot in the capital again. I lived a life of leisure on the frontier all day, raising horses and training soldiers. , I don't know how refreshing the days are, but now Jing Rong's secret letter has been delivered, and he wants to borrow his troops and horses, and Kong Qu will naturally not agree.
However, in the letter that Jing Rong sent to Kong Qu, he also mentioned the death of Prince Jing Hua.
One of the letters sent reads: "If General Kong wants to know the truth about the prince's encirclement and murder of the monarch, he will allow him to borrow troops, and the truth will be revealed."
Jing Rong did not directly state that it was Jing Yi who secretly sent someone to incite Jing Hua to rebel.
And Kong Qu also knew that the prince was a scumbag and would not be so easy to surround the palace and kill the monarch, but he did not think about it carefully. It passed like this, but when he saw the letter sent by Jingrong, his heart began to start. tangled up.
On the one hand, he guards the border fortress in Yicheng. As long as Hu Yi is safe, he will be free and unrestrained, and he really does not want to go back to Beijing to participate in the party struggle!
On the other hand, I really want to know what is the truth behind the Prince's Palace? After all, the prince is the son of Empress Lastshu, and he is a relative of the family.
so-
He struggled for a long time.
But in the end, it was rejected on the grounds that "there was no recommendation letter", and the content of the rejection was all written on the letter sent at this moment.
Finished reading!
Jing Rong placed the letter lightly by his hand, tickled the corner of his lips, and said, "The result was unexpected."
Lang Bo was surprised, bowed his head and said, "If you said that, the lord already knew it?"
"This king borrowed troops from him this time, and mentioned the matter of the prince in the letter, but I just wanted to remind him, Kong Qu, not to be sick in Yicheng after leaving the capital. After that letter, he will definitely not be able to live in peace."
"My subordinates don't understand what the lord means."
Jing Rong raised his hands and stopped in front of the door, saying, "Prince is the son of Empress Lastshu, so it is natural for the Confucius family to serve the prince, but the prince surrounded the palace to kill the monarch and committed suicide in the East Palace. Although Kong Qu was a military general, But he was able to take the initiative to go to Yicheng after the death of Empress Lastshu, and successfully escaped the treacherousness of the capital. Based on this, he knew that he was a smart man. Since he was a smart man, how could he not have thought of the clue of the Prince's encirclement of the palace? Plus now that this king mentioned it in the letter he sent to him, he must be confused and think about the cause and effect of this matter. The people of the Kong family would never know that something was wrong with the Prince's encirclement of the palace, but they continued to idle in Yicheng, so the letter sent by this king was both a reminder and a distraction. I rejected it, but I am afraid that I have already made a decision in my heart, as long as the decision is made, I will send troops for the king."
