Qin Xiaodao: "Without the Wutuo people behind, how can Fan Ziqi dare to murder the general?" After a pause, he finally asked: "Who is Li Tuo?"
"He claims to be the Prince of Tang Dynasty." Yuwen Chengchao put away the knife: "But if he is really the prince, how could he live among the people for more than 20 years? I would never believe it." His brows frowned and said: "But the double dragon jade pendant in his hand is not fake."
"Shuanglong jade pendant?" Qin Xiao didn't see Li Tuo take out the jade pendant at the birthday banquet, a little confused.
Yuwen Chengchao said: "The double dragon jade pendant is a thing of the inner palace. It is the jade pendant worn by His Majesty the emperor. In the world, only the emperor is qualified to wear the double dragon jade pendant." Now he said to the double dragon jade pendant and Li Tuo. He explained his life experience in more detail, and finally said: "So if it weren't bestowed by the first emperor, that jade pendant would never fall into the hands of others."
"The eldest son is sure that the double dragon jade pendant is real?" Qin Xiao was also very puzzled.
Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said: "It's true. In order to make me loyal to him, Li Tuo made clear to me and took out the double dragon jade pendant as evidence. I personally touched the double dragon jade pendant at that time. The workmanship is indeed not something that the folks can create, and it must be something from the palace."
Qin Xiao heard that Yuwen Chengchao confirmed that the double dragon jade pendant was real, and no longer doubted it.
Yuwen Chengchao comes from the Yuwen family, and is considered to be a person born with a golden soup spoon. There are many rare and exotic treasures. A jade pendant in the eyes of Yuwen Chengchao can naturally be distinguished from the true and false. Since Yuwen Chengchao affirms that The jade pendant is real, so naturally you won't miss it.
"If it is really a thing in the palace and the jade pendant worn by the first emperor, how could it fall into the hands of Li Tuo?" Qin Xiao asked suspiciously.
Yuwen Chengchao also raised his eyebrows and was silent for a while before he said: "Maybe he is really the blood of the first emperor in Xiling."
Qin Xiao frowned and said: "According to this, he is really qualified to inherit the throne?"
Yuwen Chengchao clenched his fist, the blue veins on the back of his hand burst, but soon his fist was loosened, a little helpless said: "If his blood is true, from the pedigree, he is indeed more qualified than today's saints. Inherit the throne." His eyes became cold and fierce: "But he used despicable means to murder the general, and he did nothing to achieve his goal. Of course, he must have the courage and skill that ordinary people do not have, but if such a person really becomes a climate, he can only It is the Mingjun who harms the world, not the benefit of the world."
"If nothing happens, Yuwen County and Zhen County must have deployed their people." Qin Xiao said: "On New Year's Eve, when Fan County initiates a rebellion, the other two places should also take action. ."
Yu Wen Chengchao nodded slightly. After he calmed down, his thinking became sharp, and he slowly said: "You are right. They have been preparing for this conspiracy for many years. Fan Ziqi and Bai Jingzhai are both sinister and cunning people, thinking Zhou Mi. The Yuwen family moved into the pass from Yuwen County. It was when the group of dragons had no head, Yao Duhu also left Fenggan Mansion. It was a time of emptiness. The Fan family took the opportunity to send people into the city. The city was almost defenseless, and it was easy to get caught. Control. The situation in Zhen County will not be any better."
Qin Xiao immediately thought of Han Yunong.
On the side of Zhenjun Turtle City, there are only two powers that are truly powerful. One is naturally the Zhenhou Mansion, and the other is the Captain Mansion under Han Yunong. In fact, the strength of the Captain Mansion is far from Zhen Hou Mansion is on par.
Zhenhou Mansion can be located in Zhen County, except
With the intertwined connections in Zhen County and the power accumulated over the past century, the most important thing is to always hold the wolf cavalry in his hands.
Now the wolf cavalry has long been transferred to Fanjun and is under the control of the Fan family. On Zhenjun's side, only Han Yunong’s captain’s mansion is left, and there is also a force that is even neglected. Zhenjun County guard Du Hongsheng.
Du Hongsheng County's guard mansion is very limited. In addition to the defense of the various gates of Guicheng, only a few soldiers and horses protect the county guard mansion.
In recent years, including the Captain Mansion, the food for the soldiers was dependent on the local family. Du Hongsheng nominally has the command of the Guicheng City Defense Force, but the soldiers and horses guarding the city have always only followed the Zhen family's dispatch. Du Hongjian There are only dozens of soldiers and horses capable of wisdom.
The captain's mansion, including the handyman jailer, is no more than the number six or seventy. Without the wolf cavalry, it is not difficult for the Fan family to send someone to capture the turtle city.
"Since Li Tuo has claimed to be the prince, then he will play this banner with great fanfare." Yu Wencheng said: "Many families in Xiling were not at the same mind as the court. Now the Fan family is following Li Tuo to cause chaos. The aristocratic family will inevitably follow the Fan family. If the imperial court cannot send troops immediately, then it will not be long before the entire Xiling will raise the Li Tuo's great king flag everywhere."
Qin Xiaoxin knows what Yuwen Chengchao said is true.
He didn't continue the topic, turned around, and said: "Let's bury the general first."
"Really let the general rest here?" The three night crows have all stood up.
Qin Xiao asked: "Do you have any concerns?"
"The body of the general has been escorted out by us." A night crow thought for a moment, then said: "Can we find a way to bring him back to the customs? This matter is reported to the Ming court, and the saint will decide the general's funeral. ."
Although Qin Xiao is the youngest among these people, he seems the most calm, and said: "I know what you want. The general is gone. He is famous and has countless battles. He is well known to all the soldiers and citizens of Tang Dynasty. If the empire’s famous generals were buried here hastily, it would look very shabby, does that mean?"
"This is of course one of the reasons." A night crow said: "The imperial civil servants and generals will have funeral ceremonies that fit his identity after his death. The generals have made great military exploits for the empire during his lifetime. There should be a decent funeral."
Yuwenchengchao finally said: "Qin Xiao, what they said is not wrong. The general was killed, and soon it became known to the world. The people of the Tang Dynasty have always admired the general, and the court must also come with a grand funeral. An explanation to the people of the world. Although the general hopes to remain in Xiling after his death, it is really inappropriate to be buried here hastily."
This is a deserted deep forest.
A famous empire who is powerful in the world is buried here, and it is indeed strange in common sense.
Qin Xiao was silent for a while, and finally said: "You really don't understand what I mean?"
Several people looked at Qin Xiao, and Qin Xiao calmly said: "As you said, the general is a hero of the empire and was murdered by the rebels. In any case, the court should give the general a decent and solemn funeral. We. Bring the body back. Of course, the court will hold a funeral for the general. It can also give an explanation to the soldiers and civilians of the world. Then? Can you guarantee that after the general is buried, the court will dispatch troops and generals to go out and settle Xilingzhi
Chaos? "
Yuwen Chengchao frowned and said, "Will the court turn a deaf ear to such a big event?"
"Grand Prince, it has been seventeen years since the Wutuo Rebellion." Qin Xiaodao: "In the past seventeen years, although the general has worked hard and wanted to return to Xiling, has the court ever made any actions? There are many officials in the guardian who are still loyal to the imperial court. They only receive salaries from the Xiling family. In seventeen years, the imperial court has not spent a single coin in Xiling." After a pause, he said, "I'm not saying that the imperial court abandoned In Xiling, at least for the past seventeen years, the imperial court has not focused on Xiling. In fact, you all know this very well."
Yuwencheng couldn’t help but nodded slightly, and a night crow was also very candid: “Yes, if it weren’t for the general’s insistence, almost no one in the court mentioned Xiling. The general actually wrote to Xiling many times, hoping that the court could tell Xiling as soon as possible. They formulated a recovery strategy, but few people in the DPRK and China paid attention to them. Their reasons are very simple. Except for the treasury’s inability to support the war in the west, the most important thing is that before the suppression of southern Xinjiang, it must not be easily caused by Xiling. National war."
"In the eyes of most courtiers, the previous situation is actually the best situation." Another Ye Crow said: "Let Xiling people guard Xiling, Xiling three counties as a buffer between Datang and Wutuo In the region, as long as Xiling does not move, Datang does not need to act rashly."
Qin Xiao sighed: "So I now doubt very much that even if Xiling has undergone such a big change, the general will be murdered, the court may not really put down the rebellion in Xiling with all its strength, at least there are still many people in the DPRK who oppose the easy general The empire’s strategic focus shifted to the northwest. They may not adjust the empire’s strategy quickly because of the general’s death.” He glanced at the general’s body covered by the black cloth, a trace of sadness crossed his eyes, and then continued: “If We returned the body of the general. The court just organized a grand funeral for the general. The more grand the funeral, the more the grief and anger in the hearts of the people of Datang will be relieved."
After all, Yuwen Chengchao was shrewd and understood what Qin Xiao meant, and said: "You mean, we want to let the general stay in Xiling on purpose?"
"Yes." Qin Xiao said: "Xiling rebellion, if even the body of the general cannot be returned to the Tang Dynasty, there is no need to talk about funerals. In this way, the court will not be able to explain to the world's soldiers and civilians. Dignified imperial generals, remains Even the saint’s face is not good-looking if he can’t return to the Tang Dynasty. In this way, whether it is for the court’s face or to give the world’s soldiers and civilians an explanation, the court will dispatch troops out of the customs, otherwise the court will not even want its own face. "
Several people suddenly understood.
Yu Wencheng was silent and did not say any more. He picked up the body of the general and walked deeper into the forest. The three Ye Crows looked at each other and finally understood Qin Xiao's good intentions.
They were a little surprised.
Of course they already knew that the general had accepted Qin Xiao as a righteous son. Although compared to Qin Xiao, their years of following the general were far from being comparable to those of young people like Qin Xiao, but since Qin Xiao and the general have the name of father and son, From a certain perspective, Qin Xiao is more qualified than them to decide the fate of the general.
To their surprise, although the young man looked like a naive face, his worries were far more profound than they wanted.
Leaving the body of the general in Xiling forced the court to send troops. This is of course their common goal now.
