The fifty-eighth to fifty-ninth chapters lead to slaughter (1)
Chapters 58 to 59: Induce the Killing (I)
In February, another snow fell, which was considered spring snow.
Yu Zhao and his party, with five servants, crossed the river and headed to Taisu County. At noon, they arrived in Taisu County. Yu Zhao looked at the village without a voice and felt very moved.
After the last battle, there were tens of thousands of dead. Taisu County is almost empty now, which is really chilling.
When I arrived at Taisu County, I went straight to the county government office. I saw that it was different after all. A row of yamen stood there, each of them was fierce. This was a good thing, but Yu Zhao frowned.
When Yu Zhao arrived at the door, he ordered his followers: "Tell me a post."
"Yes!" One person responded and went up to hand over the post. In a few minutes, Li Cunyi came to greet him and smiled before he could speak: "Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Yu. He wanted to come to ask for advice, but after a big battle in the county, Bai Su, thousands of households, couldn't get out of her body. Today, he was finally able to listen to the teachings."
This is right, but Yu Zhao looked grim and said, "Mr. Li, today I will not go to the Three Treasures Palace without any trouble, but I have something to ask about."
Li Cunyi was stunned. He had just received the news that he had contacted Du Gongzhen and had obtained the alliance covenant. Why did someone come up with such a close look of guilt?
Did you find something?
Li Cunyi still had a smile on his face: "Oh, Mr. I must have taught me this day. I am not knowledgeable and willing to listen - Mr. Yu, please sit down!"
"You know the mysterious cave that was killed by the general last time, do you know?" Yu Zhao asked with a serious expression.
"I don't know very well, but I did hear that, what's wrong?"
"Hmph, this person deceived the general and said that he wanted to point a good acupoint for the general. However, he was discovered by someone but he was evil. He wanted to frame the general with this, but he was chopped with one knife."
"Oh?" Li Cunyi felt a little regretful, but said with a smile: "This kind of demon should indeed be killed, General Shengming!"
Yu Zhao smiled coldly and said, "Afterwards, the general investigated his accomplices and killed some demons. As a result, he found out that the demon of Xuandong actually had contact with one of your disciples!"
These words immediately shocked Li Cunyi. Could it be that he was asking for guilt?
But only Yu Zhao came, but he didn't look like him. After suppressing his thoughts, he quickly stood up and bowed deeply: "I am guilty, but I don't know who this guest is? I immediately arrested and apologized."
This attitude satisfied Yu Zhao. His expression eased a little, and he said, "This guest is Zhou Zhu. His adoptive father is Tian Ji, who was killed by the old general. He is obviously dissatisfied with colluding with demons and using this kind of treacherous conspiracy of Feng Shui to disrupt politics... You can see these letters!"
After taking out some letters, Li Cunyi thanked him, stepped forward and looked carefully, and the more he looked, the more he became, the more he became solemn.
Like Yu Zhao, he knew something about the inside story, but he didn't expect that the general would deliberately frame the Li family. Although these letters were obscure, the implicit meanings in it could be figured out after thinking about it, and he was immediately furious.
Zhou Zhu came here this time. Because he was young, he was not able to practice his skills and was not taken seriously by Li Cunyi. The correspondence made him even more angry - how could I trust such mediocre talents who were not successful and had enough trouble?
Especially at this moment, if Wang Hongyi is alert, wouldn’t it be a big deal?
After reading a few letters, Li Cunyi's face turned pale and he knelt in the direction of Wenyang Mansion: "The matter involves the general and the general killed him well, but I really don't know that this is a traitor. If I leave this to the Li family and do such a illegitimate thing, I am guilty of!"
As he said that, he kowtowed repeatedly, and his forehead was covered with black green.
When Yu Zhao saw this, his expression was even gentle: "Mr. Li doesn't have to do this, and the general doesn't believe it either. If he believed it, how could I come?"
"The general means that since there is such a crazy villain who is ill-behaved, he should be killed. However, the punishment should not be clear, so as not to be shocked and think that there is a big problem in my town... The general is full of love, and your Li family will solve it yourself. Just give this villain's head!"
If it were Li Chengye, he might hesitate, but for Li Cunyi, Zhou Zhu was not successful enough and had enough trouble. If he killed him, he would kill him. If he could paralyze Wang Hongyi at this moment, he might be a blessing in disguise.
Think about it, Wang Hongyi was unwilling to understand Xing Zhengdian, so he naturally trusted the Li family. The marriage was well-established. Now he killed Zhou Zhu immediately, for fear that Wang Hongyi would trust him more, which would naturally be beneficial to Daye. Thinking of this, Li Cunyi's eyes lit up and said suddenly: "I understand, I will kill such villains immediately."
Yu Zhao was even more satisfied and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is indeed loyal, but there are two things left."
"Please tell me, Mr. Yu."
"First of all, the general also heard about Tian Ji and was very sad about it. The general wanted to go back to the city overnight to plead with his father and commander, but he had already been killed. Since he still had a son, why should he hide it? The general has already saved him from being innocent and asked him to return to his hometown. The land should have been sent back."
Li Cunyi nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
"As for Zhou Zhu, he is really crazy and cannot be forgiven. Of course, he must be killed. It is said that he is a noble son's disciple. The noble son can be killed in person to prove his innocence. I believe the general will be very happy."
Li Cunyi nodded again and said, "That's true. My son is young and neglects to prevent and approach such villains. He should behead him personally and apologize to the general."
"Hey, the report will be coming this month. Why not let the noble master take his head and go there, so he will naturally be happy."
Li Cunyi hesitated a little, but then he thought that he had only five or six hundred soldiers. If Wang Hongyi really discovered the rebellion, he didn't have to cheat him. He agreed immediately: "What the boss said is."
"I came here, just to say that this matter has come true now, and I am very pleased!"
"The elders are drinking tea here, so I will do it now. I believe it will take less than an hour to complete it." Li Cunyi said, and with a deep courtesy, he stepped out.
After leaving the living room, Li Cunyi's face turned pale. At this time, a servant stepped forward and said, "Sir, where are you going?"
"Bring a fire man, oh, where is my son?"
"...It seems that he is talking in Mr. Zhou's yard, and Fan Yingzheng is also there."
Speaking of Fan Liuhai, Li Cunyi couldn't help but snorted coldly, feeling a little unhappy. This man was indeed a talented man, but for some reason, he only recognized Li Chengye as the main person. Although he was polite to him, the actual master of the Li family, he did not obey orders.
There is also this Zhou Zhu fanning the flames!
If Wang Hongyi was present, he would think of a case on Earth when Li Tang was founded - the Liu Wenjing case.
Liu Wenjing and Li Yuan were close, but were closer to Li Shimin. Li Shimin and Liu Wenjing were secretly planning in prison and preparing to get up at the right time.
Later, Liu Wenjing continued to make contributions, but because he was too close to Li Shimin, he was distant and suspicious by Li Yuan. He killed Liu Wenjing and his brother Liu Wenqi and confiscated his property. This was actually a reduction of Li Shimin's wings and had the intention of hitting Li Shimin.
In fact, Li Cunyi's mentality at this time was somewhat similar.
Li Chengye's past life was brilliant all the time, but Li Cunyi could not explode. Now Li Chengye is so mediocre and incompetent, and has caused a few troubles, so he has the intention of striking it.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to kill Zhou Zhu at all.
Then a group of people left the west gate, went east, walked through a corridor, and came to a courtyard. Although the yard was small, it was small and unique, and laughter came from the room.
Li Cunyi went to the door with a blue face, stopped again, and only listened to his son talking inside.
"Mr. Zhou, you are really a scheming calculation. If this matter is done, I believe my father will be very happy."
A young man said in a voice: "Lord, this is what I should do. Unfortunately, the last time the Xuandong incident was dealt with, and the warriors who came here were also killed. If the warriors were there, wouldn't it be even better to assassinate Wang Hongyi at the critical moment?"
At this time, a calm voice said: "I don't agree with Mr. Zhou's words. Assassination is a minor trick. But lord, as long as you give me five hundred soldiers, I will be sure to kill Wang Hongyi at the critical moment. He can't take thousands of people with him at all times!"
"Haha, that's right!" What came was the laughter of his son Shuanglang. For some reason, when he heard Shuanglang's laughter, Li Cunyi came up with a ball of evil fire, kicked the door, and stepped in.
This sound immediately woke up the people inside. When they turned around, they saw that it was Li Cunyi, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Father?" Li Chengye was shocked and woke up first and saluted.
The two of them also gave a hurry to salute. Li Chengye gritted his teeth, glanced at everyone, stared for a moment, and then said angrily: "Ye'er, you have done a good thing, you have invited a good person!"
"Father, if something happens, the child makes a mistake. Even if he is punished, please calm down his anger." Li Chengye said for some reason.
"Punishment? How dare I punish you? You did a good thing and sent someone to a point of a bad hole. But when someone discovered it, the general was furious and killed it. It would be fine if he was killed. There were still so many traces left. He was found here. Today, Yu Zhao came to the door to ask for guilt. What do you think we should do now?" Li Cunyi said with a gritted teeth and sneered, with a sharp and mean tone.
When Zhou Zhu heard this, her face turned pale and Xiangfei Zhu's fan fell to the ground.
"I always think that you are the hope of the Li family. I usually take care of you. Even if you risk scouting the family and exterminate the clan, I will prepare for you all the way. I don't want you to betray such a rebellious son, who will not be able to do anything more than to cause such a big disaster. If Wang Hongyi was not young after all and was still thinking about love, he would be beheaded just by instructing the demon to trap the old commander in a bad place."
"Even if you are concerned about love and make such a mistake at this critical moment, if Wang Hongyi has some questions and has precautions, wouldn't it be a big mess?"
"I worked diligently and worked hard to do it, but unexpectedly, I will lose to you. Do you think that being a father is in trouble? If this is the case, I will hang myself and let you do it." Li Cunyi couldn't stop crying and crying.
Li Chengye couldn't bear the charge and kowtowed repeatedly: "How dare your son, how dare your son!"
Li Cunyi wiped his tears and said, "If you have great ambitions, you will kill me this villain who is not successful and has enough failure."
As he said that, he pulled out the sword of a servant and threw it on the ground.
Although this crisp sound is small, it sounds like thunder to everyone.
Zhou Zhu knelt on the ground, and the moment the sword fell, he was shaking, his throat sweetened, and a mouthful of blood reached his mouth, but he swallowed it.
Li Chengye was stunned for a moment, with a pale face and looked at his strange father in disbelief.
Fan Liuhai's eyes also tightened and he clenched his fists.
Chapter completed!
