When those people left, Feng Yong shook her head helplessly, thinking of when the Fengwang Mansion was rehabilitated.
"Little prince, after the Holy Majesty knew that he had wronged the old prince, he felt deeply guilty. After being reminded by His Highness the Seventh Prince, he found out that the young prince was here to cultivate. The Holy Majesty decided to restore the title of Lord Feng to you, and he also rewarded you with ten thousand taels of gold. One, a box of jewelry, I hope the little prince will not be too sad, inherit the old prince's last wish, and live a good life."
"Everyone is dead, so it's up to you. All right, all right, let's put the things away. Lord Lao, go back and help Feng Yong to thank the sage for his kindness. Feng Yong is injured and can't get up, so I won't greet you. Wait until I feel better now, I will definitely invite my lord to drink, I hope my lord will not refuse when the time comes."
"The little prince is joking, you invite the little one to drink, how can the little one refuse? Then the little one will go back first, so that the little prince can rest. When you feel better, move to the new mansion as soon as possible. Servant, I will take good care of you."
"Thank you, my lord. It's just that the doctor said that this injury is not suitable for moving. We should wait until Feng Yong's illness recovers before going."
"Heh, everyone is dead, so leave me alone. Are you going to put me under house arrest because you're afraid of leaving someone to talk about? Then you will be disappointed. I'm not the soft persimmon in your eyes."
"What's wrong? Didn't His Majesty rehabilitate the prince? Why are you so angry?"
"Rehabilitation? In your opinion, it is, but it is not at all! The case of the Bai family can be regarded as a big rebellion, right? It took three months to finalize it! But what about the Fengwang Mansion? In just a few days, all the families have been copied and executed. If it wasn’t for Meng Tongfu’s letter! I’m afraid that I’m still being chased and killed incognito! Now I’m afraid of being exposed and attracting people’s attention, so I want to find an excuse to put me under house arrest? Dreaming! If it’s so easy, then those of us Don't people die in vain? Want to leave me alone? Don't even think about it!"
"Drink some water and take a rest. Whatever they want to do, they have to wait until the wound is healed. You don't have to think about that. Heal the injury first. This is the top priority."
"You don't have to worry. I know my body. It's fine. You go and show me the title deed of the reward house, and I'll see where it is."
"Little prince... the young one is standing side by side with the palace. The prince has something to ask the young prince. Ask the young one to come over and see how the young prince's injury is. Let's make an appointment."
"I'm fine. If the old prince has time, he can come to the door at any time. I also deeply regret the death of the young prince. If the old prince has anything to ask, I must know everything. It's just my body. It is not suitable for moving, so I can only ask the old prince to condescend."
"Then I want to ask you carefully. I hope you can really tell me everything you know."
"It turns out that the old prince played a trick on me. It's okay, if you have any questions, just ask."
"Do you have any explanation for Qing'er's death?"
"There is nothing to explain. The little prince died because of me. I must be responsible. No matter how much you say, in your heart, I'm afraid it's just a sophistry."
"You admit it quickly, but if someone dies with you, what are you going to do? Is it okay to let Qing'er die in ignorance like this?"
"Hey, the little prince died to save me. Do you want to risk my life? I really want to find out who it is, but it takes time to find out. You can't let me, who just woke up, Let me tell you who is the mastermind behind the scenes? If you want to know who killed it, I can tell you directly, but what's the point of being caught? Anyone who dares to do such a thing is most likely a dead man. , I’m afraid you won’t be able to ask anything, right? When the time comes to startle the snake, you might even blame me. I’m sure I can’t do such unclear things, don’t you think?”
"You're very quick-talking! But how are you going to investigate? You tell me! How are you going to investigate?"
"My lord is thinking in his heart, this person in front of him has no official position, no connections, and lack of influence, how can he be found out, isn't that right?"
"Oh, am I wrong?"
"Of course, now that it's like this, no matter who you call, you won't believe it, but I sometimes convince you. I know that the prince must want to know who is behind the scenes, and then avenge the little prince, but the prince Have you ever thought that this menacing person is not aimed at the little prince at all? Not to mention anything else, as far as your power and status in the court are concerned, is there anyone who is blind and dares to touch your child? We all know that the young prince is the only child of your family, not only inheriting your position, but also making good friends with His Highness the Crown Prince, as brothers, who would make a move? Isn't this move obviously against you and His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Hmph, a bunch of nonsense! Then you tell me, who did it? You said a lot, and every word is on point!"
"Don't be angry, my lord. Listen to me slowly. In fact, the one who killed the little lord that night should have come to assassinate me."
"What a joke! Who would come to assassinate you like you are! What's the benefit of assassinating you? Don't think too highly of yourself!"
"The prince has a high position, so it's normal for him to look down on soldiers like me. However, in fact, I was really assassinated, and I don't know why... I also feel that I am nothing, but my second I was assassinated once and almost died. I lay in bed for a long time. The second assassination, if it hadn't been for the young prince, I might be drinking tea with the prince of hell now..."
"Then you have said so much, but tell me who killed you! Even if, well, even if someone wants to assassinate you, who would it be? What enemies do you have? You should know this, right?"
"Old prince, I just don't know. If I knew, I would have told you a long time ago. You said that I am powerless. Come to someone who can avenge me. Do you think I can push it out? I It’s just that I don’t know... You said that the person who came was from the fourth prince, but you also know the fourth prince, why did the fourth prince kill me? Besides, everyone knows that I am a useless young master, if you don’t learn Wushu, she was so angry that she became a beauty, and now even my father has... so what's the use of killing me? Besides... my father is alive... When did I suffer such humiliation?"
"What? Wei Huaqing's man? Just him? Still have the guts to kill people? Just tease me!"
"Isn't that true... Even you think so... let alone me... Everyone knows the fourth prince regardless of world affairs, so how can he kill someone? Even if he kills someone, he should kill someone who can help him. ...What's the use of killing me? Are you right, Your Majesty? And no matter how stupid the Fourth Prince is, he won't send the same person to kill me twice, right? I think the first thing I want to do is to find out this person. Who is it, instead of checking something else, are you right?"
"That's true...then do you know who this person is?"
"Before the fourth prince went to Wenzhou, I asked the fourth prince to bring a letter to a friend. You know, my lord, that the fourth prince is gentle, so he would naturally agree. Later, when the fourth prince arrived in Wenzhou, he asked someone to bring a letter, and I said the letter had already been delivered, and the person who delivered the letter at that time was the one who assassinated me. You said, even if the fourth prince is so stupid, he would not send someone I have seen to assassinate me, right? And, at that time, the fourth prince When the prince brought the letter, he once vaguely mentioned to me that there are other people around him. On his way to Wenzhou, there were countless hardships and difficulties. There should be one of the four princes."
"What? Someone assassinated the prince? Is this true?"
"Of course, at that time, I couldn't help it. I thought, the fourth prince was so righteous, and I definitely couldn't just leave him alone. I even asked His Royal Highness the seventh prince to send someone to save the fourth prince! Unexpectedly, the seventh prince is also a A benevolent person actually agreed!"
"Nonsense! According to what you said, His Highness the Crown Prince wants to assassinate the Prince? His Highness the Crown Prince is already below one person and above ten thousand people, so why would he have such thoughts? Besides...the Crown Prince and Qing'er... "
"My lord... there is something... I don't know whether to say it or not..."
"Speak! There is no one else at the moment! You tell me, can I still kill you?"
"Actually... the little prince was ordered by His Royal Highness to assassinate the fourth prince when he went out for a long time... but he didn't succeed... and after the little prince came back, he has always had something on his mind... I don't know. Does it have anything to do with the assassination...Old prince, you also know that the little prince has been in contact with me...Maybe the person who came here is to assassinate the little prince..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?! Let me tell you, I heard it today. If someone else hears it, let alone your life, everyone around you will be buried with you! Be careful! Don't think that Fengwang Mansion After the matter is over, you can speak without restraint!"
"My lord, when did you become so careful? Standing shoulder to shoulder, king, are you also afraid of this? When did you generals who are so powerful on the battlefield and make the enemy fearful, you are afraid of getting into such a small trouble... ...My lord...If I hadn't been known to you for a long time, I would definitely not tell my lord these things today...It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. No wonder, now we can only use these vulgar things to soothe our cold hearts... Sigh..."
"you……"
"My lord, I know what you are afraid of, so I just told you that I will not ask you to investigate this matter. If you investigate this matter, I am afraid that the end will be the same as that of Fengwang Mansion. I don't want to drag you down. I Just to let you know the cause and effect. There are three most painful things in the world, bereavement of a father in childhood, loss of a wife in a young age, loss of a son in old age, I know, the old lord, you have all of them... So I can't let the little lord die unknown Not in vain... Please believe me... Although I am nothing now..."
"My lord, there are some things that can be resolved without your stepping back. The sage is suspicious, everyone knows that, let alone a hero, even a brother, he will not let it go... something happened to the little lord, you can't do it again." Something happened, if you trust me, you will leave this matter to me, I will definitely not let the little prince die in an unexplained way. But, you have to lend me a few people... This person must be someone you trust There can be fewer people, but it cannot be uncertain..."
"I understand this, but if you are like this, what can you find out? If you could find out, the Feng Prince's Mansion wouldn't be where it is today, right?"
"My lord, you will understand even if I don't tell you about the matter of the Feng Wang Mansion, but please believe me about the matter of the little lord. If I am arrested, I will become a traitor again. If you are arrested, this matter will be settled. I'm old, although you are alone now, but if something happens to you, who will avenge the little prince? I don't ask you to give me much help, I just ask you to protect yourself in this matter , you can only avenge the little prince if you protect yourself, and you won't let the little prince suffer innocent injustice."
"I'm very grateful that you think so. It's just that if this matter is as you said, it must involve a lot. I'm afraid you don't have that ability..."
"Don't worry, my lord. Some things can only be found out with a humble identity. Moreover, only I know the appearance of the assassin. If you ask others to investigate, you must also bring me. What is the difference between that and my own investigation? You Just believe me once, if I can't find anything, you will have time to go out. As you said, this matter involves a lot. Even if you investigate, it is impossible to find clues all at once. Why don't you let me, a grassroots Try it, if you can find something, it will be regarded as worthy of your trust. The little prince treats me like a younger brother, how can I do anything that is not good for you? If I am arrested, it is nothing more than thinking that I am a rebellious minister It’s just a thief. If you are arrested, I’m afraid it will cause turmoil in the government and the public, right? If one of your former subordinates, close friends over the years, speaks for you, I’m afraid that a big family will be implicated. This matter, just leave it to me, if I need someone, I will go to Wang Ye."
"Okay then. What's the matter with you, you just ask someone to come to your door, no one will check anything, but, you have to pay attention, don't be followed by someone, I will send someone over to give you some news regularly, If it is inconvenient for you to ask someone to go, just give the information to this person. In order to verify your identity, you keep half of it. If the person who comes can't take out the other half, you just kill him. I will take care of the rest If you can catch it and keep it alive, that would be the best, but I look at your body, if you want someone to live and tell the truth, I'm afraid it will be harder than death, so don't force it. Remember, be careful in everything You and I are well aware of the matter of the Fengwang Mansion, and I feel guilty for not saying a word at that time, but please understand my difficulties, I want to protect, not only me, not only Qinger, but also my brother. Big group of old comrades-in-arms, it is impossible for me to say anything, if you hate me because of this, then hate me, I have nothing to say, but this matter, you must be careful!"
