Chapter 1571: Inspiring Generals

Qiu Mansion.

The white flags fluttering slowly in the morning breeze, the sound of chimes and incense candles in the mansion, and bursts of crying can be heard from time to time.

King Jing Li Yuanjing was in front, General Xue Wanche of Youwu Guard was behind, and they came to Qiu Mansion to express their condolences.

Li Yuanjing, who usually wears rich brocade clothes, wore a plain scholar's silk shirt today. He exchanged greetings with Qiu Xinggong, who came to greet the guests. Then he held Qiu Xinggong's hand with a sad face and said warmly: "People have life and death, Brother Qiu expresses my condolences. ”

Qiu Xinggong's face was covered with wrinkles. He sighed and remained silent.

Xue Wanche glared at him and said loudly: "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong! As military generals, what we pay attention to is that we should be happy and grudges, and we should avenge and retaliate. Is it possible that after the death of my son, I still have to be a tortoise?" No matter who is the murderer of the nephew of Shenji, as long as your brother Qiu shouts, a certain Xue Wanche will follow you with a knife, and he must seek justice for you!"

"Wan Che, be careful what you say!"

Li Yuanjing hurriedly grabbed Xue Wanche, fearing that he would continue to speak nonsense, and complained: "There are so many people here, how can we talk nonsense? If anything happens to Fang Jun and others, wouldn't they all be suspected of General Qiu?" ?”

The implication is that it has been determined that Qiu Shenji was killed by Fang Jun...

Qiu Xinggong looked gloomy and remained silent. He only bowed slightly and asked Li Yuanjing and others to go to the mourning hall to express their condolences.

The mourning hall was filled with incense and candles, and the gloomy atmosphere was overwhelming.

Li Yuanjing endured the nausea in his heart, burned a stick of incense, and pushed out the door.

As the master of the house, Qiu Xinggong naturally couldn't let Li Yuanjing leave immediately after offering the incense. He invited him to a side hall and ordered someone to serve tea and entertain him.

Li Yuanjing took a sip of tea, looked up at Qiu Xinggong, and asked, "What are General Qiu's plans?"

Qiu Xinggong said dullly: "Your Majesty has already decreed that the case will be heard by the Three Law Divisions. I believe that the real culprit will be found out soon and my son will be avenged."

Li Yuanjing laughed in his heart.

This... is a lie.

The murderer was able to kill Qiu Shenji in Xijin without anyone noticing. If it could be found out, the Criminal Department would have found it out when they rushed to the scene immediately after the incident. The identity of the real murderer was not found out at that time. Now that things have changed, how can we find out?

If the real culprit is Fang Jun, the only explanation for hiding Qiu Shenji's body on the boat is an attempt to disturb the view and fish in troubled waters. Today, people are confused as to "Why did I kill someone and put it on my boat?", to clear it up. Own.

If the real culprit is not Fang Jun, he can kill Qiu Shenji and then hide his body on the navy ship... Such a person simply has the power to reach heaven and earth. How can we investigate?

In fact, everyone now understands that after the three-law investigation, there is only one outcome that can be found, and that is to clear Fang Jun's suspicion...

Xue Wanche looked to see that there was no one around, then he moved forward and came to Qiu Xinggong's side. He said with a ferocious expression: "Brother Qiu, can't you see clearly? The backer behind Fang Jun is astounding. If there is no real evidence, who can be sure?" What's the crime? Look at that bastard. He looks like a stick, but he is actually extremely cunning and cunning. How can he leave any evidence for what he is doing? So the Sanfa Division is just showing off. If Brother Qiu wants to take revenge, he can only mobilize people secretly..."

At this point, he cut off his left hand severely and made a "kill" gesture.

In fact, what he said is true. Whether it is Fang Xuanling's influence, the emperor's favor for Fang Jun, or even the power controlled by Fang Jun himself, this can only be the end...


Li Yuanjing sighed, with a troubled look on his face, and struggled for a while, saying: "Although my relationship with General Qiu is not very close, I have always admired the general's upright and courageous style, so I take him as a confidant. If General Qiu really wants to be a god Nephew Jixian takes revenge... This king gave up this title, We will also contact the righteous members of the royal family to seek His Majesty’s forgiveness for the general! The sun is shining brightly, if the murderer is allowed to go unpunished and the morals of the government decline, how can we, the righteous people, be able to eradicate such evil? Only then can we look up to you without any shame!”

Xue Wanche nodded fiercely: "That's exactly the reason!"

The two sang together, but Qiu Xinggong kept his eyebrows drooped, indifferent.

When Li Yuanjing saw that Qiu Xinggong was silent, he didn't say much. He patted Qiu Xinggong on the shoulder and said warmly: "I am not greedy for anything. I just can't bear to see General Qiu grow old and lose his son. He refuses in grief, but the real murderer is still at large and lawless." ...In short, no matter what General Qiu does, I will stand behind you and give my full support.”

There was a trace of sadness on his face, which seemed to be sincere.

Xue Wanche slapped the coffee table hard, looked at Qiu Xinggong angrily, and said: "Brother Qiu used to go to war to kill and eat people's hearts and livers, and he never frowned. How come he is getting old, but even the bravery he once had has withered. ? The hatred of killing a son is irreconcilable. Can you even tolerate this? ”

Qiu Xinggong gritted his teeth and the muscles on his cheeks squirmed, but he still sat calmly and said nothing.

Li Yuanjing glanced at Qiu Xinggong and reprimanded Xue Wanche severely: "Wanche, shut up! How many times has General Qiu been through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but is he actually as wretched and cowardly as you say? Stop talking like this again. Mention, apologize to General Qiu quickly!”

Xue Wanche snorted and kept silent, looking contemptuous.

Li Yuanjing was a little embarrassed and said: "This man has always had such a bad temper. If he offends me, I will apologize to him. Don't blame General Qiu..."

Seeing that Qiu Xinggong remained silent, he had no choice but to stand up and say, "I will take my leave first. When I have time the next day, I will have a chat with General Qiu."

Qiu Xinggong also stood up and saluted: "My family has a strong sense of filial piety, so I apologize for not being able to send you far away."

"No problem, no problem, stay, stay."

After they were sent away, Qiu Xinggong walked around in a circle and returned to the side hall to sit quietly and think carefully about Li Yuanjing's words.

He is not stupid, how could he not see Li Yuanjing's plan to incite the general?

But these are not the main point. What he is thinking about is if he really kills Fang Jun brazenly, whether Li Yuanjing can unite the royal family to stand up and support him as he said now...

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't come up with a clue.

Qiu Xinggong stood up, opened a door on the side of the side hall, and walked in.

This is a sandwich room with a small area. Judging from the direction, it is right behind the mourning hall and separated by a wall.

There were no windows in the cubicle, and the light was dim. A candle was lit against the corner. A man was tied up like a rice dumpling and thrown to the ground. Two strong men in black were guarding him on the left and right.

Seeing Qiu Xinggong come in, two strong men in black knelt down on one knee and said, "I've seen the handsome man before!"

Qiu Xinggong said "hmm", took two steps forward with his hands behind his back, and then leaned over to look at the "zongzi" on the ground in the light of the candle...

"Woo woo woo"

"Zongzi" not only had his hands and feet tied tightly, but also had a piece of rag stuffed into his mouth. After seeing Qiu Xinggong's appearance clearly, he squirmed and screamed, struggling desperately, but he could only squirm like a maggot, and his mouth uttered The sound of whining.

Qiu Xinggong waved his hand, and a strong man in black came over and took off the rag from Zongzi's mouth.

"Uncle, spare me...ah!"

As soon as his mouth relaxed, he begged for mercy, but Qiu Xinggong flew up and kicked him in the mouth. He immediately groaned, swallowed all the words back in his throat, then opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, along with With a mouth full of teeth...

"If you dare to shout louder again, do you believe that I will peel off your skin and cramp your tendons?"

Qiu Xinggong said quietly.

"I, I, I... don't dare anymore..."

"Zongzi" groaned, curled up in fright, and kept squirming backwards, as if he wanted to stay away from Qiu Xinggong. The devil in front of him had eaten people's hearts and livers. Is there anything he couldn't do?

Qiu Xinggong stared at the "Zongzi" and said slowly: "Zhou Xing, you and Shenji are brothers and sisters. Shenji has always treated you well. Now that he has been wronged and died miserably, don't you want to take revenge?"

"I...I am willing..."

Zhou Xing had been tortured until he lost his human form, and all the teeth in his mouth fell out. His eyes were scattered and trembling, and he said intermittently: "Shenji is good to me, how can I be a ruthless and unjust person? If I can avenge Shenji , even if it costs me my life, I will never hesitate!”

No matter what you think in your heart that the Qiu family will die as soon as possible, you still have to say something nice, otherwise the devil in front of you will really peel off his skin and cramps in his anger, and then feed all the bits and pieces to the dogs... …

Qiu Xinggong nodded slowly and asked: "I don't need you to avenge Shenji. You just need to tell me honestly, how did you know that Shenji's body was on the navy ship?"

Zhou Xing hurriedly said: "Junior has already said that someone threw a letter at the junior's home at night, saying that the body of the divine achievement was on the navy ship. The junior also gave the letter to my uncle. This statement is definitely not false. Wow, uncle , for the sake of my friendship with Shenji, please spare me..."

He is regretful now. If I had known that the water here was so deep, I would have just stayed away. Why did I have to bring myself in just to please Qiu Xinggong for a few rewards?
