Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 161 159 - Shoot and kill
When Hu Changyong found out about this, he didn't believe it at first, but when he saw the serious faces of the sergeants who came to him for questioning, their faces turned pale from shock.

He just had a drink with Zhen Wu a few days ago, why did something happen?

Hu Changyong scolded the enraged sergeant, and went to find Xue Lu in a hurry. Xue Lu is now one of their [-] households, and Zhang Wu brought other [-] households. His own horse turned on his back and took Hu Changyong straight to Zhen Wu's house.

When they arrived at Zhen Wu's house, seeing the closed door of Zhen Wu's house, the hearts of both of them sank, and they couldn't help being worried to death.

But they didn't know what to do. They wanted to knock on the door and go in to see Zhen Wu, but they felt that it was useless. They wanted to make Zhen Wu unhappy. After thinking about it, Xue Lu gritted his teeth and turned his horse back to the barracks to find Tan Wu Yuan and others.

When Xue Lu and others who didn't know the truth were running around like headless chickens for Zhen Wu, Zhen Wu was more relaxed. He leaned on the chair, put his feet on the table, and read "The Art of War" carefully study.

"In the past, those who were good fighters were invincible first, and waited for the enemy to be victorious. The invincible lies in oneself, and the victory lies in the enemy."

In the past, how could Zhen Wu have the heart to study this kind of thing, but looking at it now, how could this book be a simple military book?Be invincible first, and wait for the enemy to be victorious. As long as you protect yourself impeccably, wait for the enemy's flaws, and then seize the flaws, that is the way to win. Therefore, the invincibility lies in oneself, and the victory lies in the enemy.

Now that Zhen Wu was hooked as a bait, Meng Ju and the others had already exposed their flaws, so how could the Yan Palace be invincible?

Zhen Wu just had to wait.

this day.

Liang Fang came to report, saying that it was someone from Yan Wangfu.

Zhen Wu came out and saw that he had never seen him before, and his brows frowned immediately. Seeing this, Yang Jing took out King Yan's token, and whispered in Zhen Wu's ear: "Your Highness, let me come here to discuss a secret matter. .”

Zhen Wu was taken aback for a moment, then led Yang Jing into his study.

After entering the study, after Zhen Wu asked Yang Jing to sit down, he didn't speak immediately, but looked at Yang Jing frowning and thinking.

Yang Jing smiled and said: "Zhen Qianhu doesn't have to be like this. I'm in charge of some secret affairs in the Yan Palace. It's normal that you haven't seen it, but I have been friends with Zhen Qianhu for a long time."

Zhen Wu shook his head.

"I'm not doubting your identity. Not everyone can get His Royal Highness's token. I'm just thinking, His Highness suddenly sent someone to look for me. Could it be that things are not going well?"

Yang Jing was a little surprised, but then he was relieved. Zhen Wu is a smart person, and it is very easy to talk to smart people. He can start to think about the following problems in advance from your casual move.

"You can say that, but it's not entirely true."

Afterwards, Yang Jing briefly explained the matter to Zhen Wu, and the list of members of the Mengju party was found out, but the case of the third brother's manslaughter was in trouble.

Zhen Wu frowned.

Yang Jing said: "His Royal Highness means to directly fabricate evidence to cleanse your brother and convict Mengju at the same time."

Zhen Wu frowned even deeper.

There is a possibility of being exposed if it is fabricated, although the power of King Yan is available, coupled with the cooperation of relevant personnel, the possibility of being exposed is very small.

But the problem is that now that Zhu Biao's blue jade tool is here, and Meng Ju is dying to fight back, he might not be afraid of King Yan's power. died.

And just now Yang Jing also said that Meng Ju has been a prosecutor for many years, and he is very good at this kind of criminal cases.

While thinking about it, Zhen Wu picked up the jade pendant that had been on the table, and gently twirled it in his hand. From time to time, following his thoughts, he held the jade pendant in his hand and tapped the table twice.

Yang Jing didn't bother Zhen Wu, thinking that Zhen Wu was thinking about how to fabricate evidence, so he also lowered his eyes to think, but thinking about it, his eyes casually glanced at the jade pendant in Zhen Wu's hand.

At first glance, Yang Jing didn't care. When many people think, there will be some small movements on their hands.

But when Zhen Wu pinched the jade pendant and stopped turning it, Yang Jing's expression changed when he saw the shape of the jade pendant, and he interrupted Zhen Wu's thoughts directly.

"Zhen Qianhu, may I have a look at the jade pendant in your hand?"

Zhen Wu handed the jade pendant to Yang Jing suspiciously.

Yang Jing looked at it carefully, especially when he saw the engraving on the jade pendant, his eyes suddenly shrank.

"Where did you get this jade pendant?" Yang Jing was instantly moved, his voice full of disbelief.

"You know him?" Zhen Wu asked.

"Tell me first, where did this jade pendant come from?"

"I found it in my third child's clothes, but it shouldn't belong to my third child. I think the name on it looks familiar, so it has been kept here for me."

"Come on, let's go to the palace now and ask your brother where did this jade pendant come from."

Zhen Wu frowned, grabbed the excited Yang Jing and said, "I'm at a loss now, can you explain to me the origin of this jade pendant first, and you are so excited, if it falls into the eyes of caring people, it will not be beautiful."

Yang Jing was held back by Zhen Wu, and immediately came back to his senses. He also knew that what Zhen Wu said was reasonable. After taking a few deep breaths, he calmed down, and after taking a deep look at Zhen Wu, he uttered a name.

"Yu Feng."

Yang Jing continued: "Do you know Yu Feng?"

This sentence was like a flash of lightning in Zhen Wu's mind, and then, the information about Meng Ju in Zhen Wu's mind flipped quickly.

Many years ago, when Mengju was still under the tent of Jingning Hou Yesheng, he had a good friend named Yu Feng, and Yu Feng had a child named Yu Yun.

In the 13th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang killed Hu Weiyong's nine clans for the crime of "conspiracy".

This jade pendant turned out to belong to a dead person.

No.

Maybe not dead.

Zhen Wu's eyes flashed, and Meng Ju's nephew Wang Yun suddenly came to mind. When Yu Feng's family was killed, his son Yu Yun was seven years old. Now nearly ten years have passed, isn't it the age of sixteen or seventeen? Similar age.

Zhen Wu suddenly felt the corners of his mouth dry, and he said hoarsely, "Mengju's nephew Wang Yun is sixteen or seventeen years old."

Yang Jing was shocked.

"You mean..."

Zhen Wu nodded and said: "Very likely, I have never seen the third child with this jade pendant before. A few days ago, the third child had an accident and found this jade pendant that night, and someone tried to break into my house late at night. I think It is very likely that the third brother accidentally tore it off when he was fighting with Nephew Mengju, and then somehow hung it on the third brother's sleeve or waist."

After saying this, the two looked at each other and sat down in shock.

At this time, there is no rush for anything, this matter is too big, and everyone is digesting the news.

for a while.

Zhen Wu came back to his senses and asked Yang Jing: "Are you sure this jade pendant belongs to Yu Yun, the son of Yu Feng?"

Yang Jing nodded solemnly and said, "I'm very sure."

Zhen Wu frowned and looked at Yang Jing suspiciously, this matter cannot be joked, Zhen Wu wanted to know how Yang Jing was sure.

Yang Jing's lips trembled, but then he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not going to hide anything from Zhen Qianhu until now. I was Yang Jing, Marquis of Yingyang. In 15 years, I was in charge of farming in Beiping, but I was climbed by Yu Feng and others. Biting as a Hu party, fortunately His Highness rescued him at that time, and he feigned death to save his life."

I fuck.

Zhen Wu stood up abruptly, and looked at Yang Jing even more surprised, his eyes widened.

what is it today?
Two consecutive Hu parties who should have died have reappeared alive.

This world, how many secrets it has kept, is unknown.

Hu party.

The case of Hu Weiyong killed more than 3 people one after another.

Sticking is death.

Yang Jing smiled wryly and said: "I had a good relationship with Yu Feng back then. I gave Yu Feng the raw material for this jade pendant. After he spent a lot of money to carve it, he let me see it, so I definitely recognized it. "

There was silence in the room.

After a while.

Zhen Wu stabilized his mind before he said, "You don't need to tell me about this."

Yang Jing waved his hand and said: "I have been with His Highness for a long time, I know whether Zhen Qianhu is worthy of trust, and I tell you, I also ask for things, I have been like this all my life, but I have a son named Yang Hong , now 11 years old, because I don’t accompany you often, and I am very naughty, His Highness promised me before, let my son serve as your subordinate after two or three years, saying that you are good at training people.”

Speaking of this, Yang Jing continued with a smile: "Although this matter is arranged by His Highness, I will inevitably accept your kindness in the future. I have friendship with you in my real identity, and I also want you to take care of me when the time comes."

Zhen Wu took a deep look at Yang Jing. He had already boarded Zhu Di's boat, and he had to accept many things if he didn't want to. Zhen Wu closed his eyes again and took a breath, and when he opened his eyes again, he was determined.

"It doesn't have to be like this. If you enter my subordinates, I will treat you as my own. However, since you are honest with each other, I, Zhen Wu, also swear here. If you break this oath, you will be destroyed by heaven and earth."

Yang Jing smiled again, then straightened her expression, looked at Yu Pei and said, "Let's discuss how to make a decision on this matter."

Zhen Wu straightened his expression and looked at Yu Pei as well.

He thought for a while and said: "Now is the critical period, I should not go to the palace. If Nephew Mengju's nephew is really Yu Feng's son, you can't startle the snake, you take my seal back to the palace, first confirm with my brother whether the jade pendant is Mengju's nephew Yes, once it is confirmed, we only need to investigate a little bit, and we have a lot to do in this matter."

The situation of Yang Jing and nephew Meng Ju's is still different. Yang Jing is guilty of feigning death and escaping in advance, and there is no clear crime. But if Meng Ju's nephew is really Yu Feng's son, then this matter will be serious.

Yang Jing thought about it seriously, and approved Zhen Wu's words. Afterwards, the two talked in detail for a while, and Yang Jing quietly left with the jade pendant and Zhen Wu's seal, and returned to the palace.

After arriving at the palace, Yang Jing went to the place where Zhen Yong was imprisoned first, and made inquiries. After showing Zhen Wu's seal, Zhen Yong knew everything. Soon, Yang Jing confirmed that the jade pendant belonged to Meng Ju's nephew.

Then, he hurriedly reported to Zhu Di.

No one knew exactly what the two of them talked about, except that Yang Jing led people to go straight to Mengju's wife's hometown at night.

For five consecutive days.

Every day after eating, Zhen Wu stood in the yard with a heavy heart, looking at the sky outside.

He could clearly feel that the vortex surging in the dark of Beiping City was about to erupt.

Once it erupts, it must be astonishingly powerful.

In the afternoon of the sixth day.

The closed door of Zhen Wu's house was finally opened. Wang Yan came to ask Zhen Wu to go to the palace.

Zhen Wu followed Wang Yan and went straight into Zhu Di's study. He understood that this matter was finally coming to an end.

As soon as he entered the study, there were three people inside, Dao Yan, Yang Jing and Zhu Di.

Zhu Di pouted his chin, and Yang Jing understood, and quickly whispered in Zhen Wu's ear: "I went to Mengju's wife's hometown in the past few days. Mengju's wife does have a younger brother, and she does have a nephew of the same age. On the surface, it was said that he was sent to Beiping City to be raised by Mengju, but after a secret investigation, his nephew died of illness ten years ago. I dug the grave myself and saw the bones with my own eyes, so now I can be sure that nephew Mengju Absolutely not me, adding this jade pendant to testify now is enough to convict Meng Ju of deceiving the emperor."

Speaking of this, the old monk Daoyan suddenly smiled: "You don't need to be so troublesome, just beat Meng Ju and others together into the gangsters, so that we can catch them all in one go."

Zhen Wu was a little surprised, and labeled it Hu Dang, simply four words.

But between the lines is a dead word.

Zhu Di seemed to have already discussed with Dao Yan and made up his mind.

At this time, he suddenly raised his head to look at Zhen Wu, and said: "Before, you were told to close the gate tightly, and there were rumors everywhere in the city that I was going to cut off your head. This time, I will let you lead the soldiers to show up, and you will give me the momentum of thunder. Take down all the members of the Mengju Party, dig three feet at the same time, and also check out all the secret letters they exchanged with each other."

Zhen Wu took the order immediately.

Zhu Di looked at Yang Jing again: "Mengju Party members have been spreading rumors before, is there a way to reverse the public opinion?"

Yang Jing said: "This matter is simple. Find a few storytellers and tell the stories we gave for a few days. Not only can the reputation be reversed, but also the two brothers Zhen Qianhu can be turned into heroes who fight against traitors for the country."

"Then let's do this. The Zhenwu brothers have been criticized for this matter. I let them be heroes, and it should be so."

At this moment, Zhen Wu suddenly asked Zhu Di: "When arresting, if you encounter resistance, please show me how to choose, Your Highness."

"Kill or kill."

Zhu Di's murderous aura was overflowing, and his bloody words floated in the study, as if even the summer temperature had cooled down a bit.

……

　How is the amount today?uh-huh!
