Chapter 93: Betrayal
This is a show of goodwill and win over, but it is also a naked threat. There is no free lunch in the world, and the other party will not hesitate to kill his enemies completely, so what they want will definitely get more.
Looking at the two men opposite, the scissors fell silent. He didn't know what value he had in the eyes of the other party.
"Deputy Commander Duan, do you know the truth about the destruction of the Western Frontier Army?" Xin Jianli raised the wine pot on the table and asked with a smile while pouring wine for the scissors.
The scissors suddenly shook, and the entire western border army was destroyed. It seemed to be an incredible thing to the death camp. It was not hundreds or thousands of people, but a total of 60,000 border troops, but none of them escaped and were wiped out in the Luoying Mountains.
Defeating a war is not a rare thing, and the death camp was not beaten to escape in one go, but in their opinion, the situation of being encircled and annihilated like this was simply a day of heaven and night, how could it happen in front of them alive?
At that time, Qin Feng asserted to them that something was wrong with the court. But what was wrong with it was not something that they and the little people could understand.
What Xin Jianli said was nothing about was the problem that the Death Camp was thinking hard but could not solve. The Death Camp was a member of the Western Frontier Army. Although it was usually excluded and regarded as an alien, it was also their robes on the battlefield. Brothers fought side by side more than once, and Death Camp rescued them, and other border troops also rescued the Death Camp.
"Someone has betrayed the Western Frontier Army." Scissors stared at Xin Jianli. He realized that a huge secret would unfold in front of him. The old man who was not astonishingly handsome now was holding a golden waist card that only the high-ranking inside could hold.
"Yes, it is true that a senior official of the imperial court betrayed the western border army, which led to the destruction of Zuo Lixing's entire army. But you probably wouldn't have thought of who was the one who betrayed Zuo Lixing." Xin Jianli said indifferently.
The scissors stared at Xin Jianli without asking questions. He knew very well that the other party would tell him this secret when he brought him here.
"It's Your Highness the Crown Prince!" The words spit out of Xin Jianli's mouth made the scissors jump up directly from the chair. With the clicking sound, the wine glass in his hand was crushed to pieces, and the wine splashed everywhere. He looked at Xin Jianli with disbelief on his face.
"Is it incredible?" Xin Jianli didn't think anything was different about the shock of the scissors. He slowly picked up the towel and gently wiped the wine splashed on his face. "I feel incredible."
"Why does Your Highness the Crown Prince do this?" Scissors said hoarsely.
"Why?" Xin Jianli laughed, "Of course it's for that dragon throne. This is the highest level of our Great Chu struggle. You are just a small deputy lieutenant, so naturally I can't believe it."
"Sixty thousand people!" Scissors sat down dejectedly, "In order to attack the Second Prince, His Highness the Crown Prince actually sent 60,000 people to death?"
"What's the point!" Xin Jianli smiled, "In the eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince, the 60,000 people are just a cold number in the military list, rather than a living, flesh-and-blooded person. He only needs to ruin the 60,000 border troops to make his reserve stable as Mount Tai, which is worth it in his opinion. But he obviously forgot what kind of wise man our Emperor is, so he has backfired. I think you also know that His Royal Highness is imprisoned in the East Palace now, right?"
"I have heard that he is erratic and unfilial in his work." Scissors roared in a low voice: "Why not publish his crimes in the world and punish them in the Ming Zhengpao?"
Xin Jianli and Yang Yi looked at each other and laughed.
"Brother Duan Xuan, you are too naive." Yang Yi shook his head and smiled, "Who is that? That is His Royal Highness, the crown prince, the world's once recognized crown prince. If it is announced like this, how can you let the court have a face? How can you let His Majesty deal with him? Will His Majesty have to bear such a stain after his death?"
"It is worthy of destroying relatives for justice, and it should be remembered in history." Scissors said fiercely.
"That's what ordinary people think." Xin Jianli shook his head and said, "The royal family cannot bear such a blow, which will cause a fatal blow to the royal family's prestige. Your Majesty has been alive for a while, and you will not eat your son. Your Majesty cannot be cruel and order to kill His Highness the Crown Prince. After all, Your Majesty has only two sons."
"Is it just let him escape from justice like this? Did he let 60,000 border troops fall into the Yingshan Mountains with unjust explanation? He didn't explain to the people of the world and wanted to escape by this. Will it not damage the prestige of the court and the royal face?" Scissors said authentically.
"For someone like His Royal Highness, he deprived him of the power to inherit the throne. In this life, he could only imprison himself in a small courtyard, which would make him more painful than killing him. As for what you said, you should give the world an explanation, the court will naturally have an explanation." Xin Jianli said slowly.
"How do you explain?" asked the scissors.
Xin Jianli smiled but said nothing.
Yang Yi stood up, walked behind the scissors, held his shoulders with both hands, leaned over in his ear, and whispered: "This is why Lord Xin came to find you."
The scissors looked at Xin Jianli in confusion at first, but then they reacted, their eyebrows stood up, and they slapped the table with a slap, shaking the dishes on the table with a loud noise. They wanted to stand up, but when their shoulders tightened, they were pressed tightly by Yang Yi. Yang Yi is a level seven master, and he is much more skillful than the scissors. When Yang Yi holds it down, the scissors cannot move.
"So you want the Death Camp to act as this scapegoat? Don't think about it. Do you still have a conscience? Have your conscience been eaten by dogs? Over the years, Death Camp has fought bloody battles. Over the years, how many people died on the front line. When they are about to come, you will even place such a crime on us."
"So what?" Xin Jianli leaned back, "No matter how much credit the Death Camp made, it was just a prisoner of guilt. Compared with His Royal Highness, who is of noble status, what is worth pity? Can the Death Camp compare with the royal face? Can it be with the royal prestige?"
The scissors struggled angrily, "The death camp is just a few numbers in front of you, but for me, it is also a life of life."
Xin Jianli looked at the struggled scissors coldly, "Yang Yi, let him go."
As soon as Yang Yi let go of his hand, the scissors jumped in. When he touched his hand in the boot, a sharp short knife appeared in his hand, raised high, but condensed in the air.
Xin Jianli stared at the other party with a chuckle.
"Deputy Commander Duan, you have to think clearly." He slowly took out a letter from his arms and placed it flat on the table. "There is a blank letter of appointment here. As I fill it in, you can write your Duan Xuan's name here, and of course you can also write other people's."
The scissors looked at the other person with a heavy breath, suddenly turned around and walked out.
Yang Yi touched the handle of the knife around his waist, but Xin Jianli shook his head and allowed the scissors to walk out.
"Master Xin!" Yang Yi looked at the back of the scissors disappearing at the door and said anxiously: "If he is allowed to leave, if the death camp gets the news, it will be a big mess. You can't let him go!"
Xin Jianli laughed, "General Yang, come and sit down and have a good drink with me."
Looking at the old god Xin Jianli, Yang Yi was in a mess and reluctantly sat down, but he was feeling like he was sitting there. This matter was related to his future glory, wealth, wealth, life, and if he couldn't handle it well, he would be finished.
"Come on, drink." Xin Jianli raised his glass and raised his glass to Yang Yi. "Some things need to be figured out by himself, otherwise it will not be done."
When the wine was drunk, it was tasteless. Yang Yi chewed Xin Jianli's words carefully, but he didn't know what to understand.
When Xin Jianli raised the second glass of wine, the closed door was pushed open with a snap, and the figure of scissors appeared beside the door.
Xin Jianli raised his glass of wine towards the gate, "Deputy Commander Duan, your wine is still there, come in and have a drink."
