Chapter 189: The Past of the Li Family(2/2)
I heard another voice inside say first: "Young master is young, but he is experienced in dealing with things. If he doesn't make a name for himself, he will make a big splash and have a very good demeanor. In time, he may become more popular than his predecessor."
The young master laughed and said modestly, "The general is praised. After all, I am still favored by the general. Otherwise, how can I take on this overall situation with my own strength? I have thanked the general here."
General? Dijon's generals are quite a lot, and Lutuga is one of them, but I don't know which general he is. However, if you can see this young master, you will probably not be able to have a lower status.
As he spoke, he seemed to have really worshipped him. Li Qianfan heard a series of "no use" behind the wall, and sneered in his heart.
Some people are born with two faces, and their ability to play is really the origin of family learning. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes today, they would probably not be able to see the true face hidden in the dark in the end.
Who would have thought that a lustful and erotic man who lingers in a place where he can achieve nothing and only cares about his appearance is a "capable man" who is active in his heart and neat in his means to help his father betray his lord?
Wen Yugui, it seems that this person can marry the princess, the princess whom the empress dowager is the most beloved princess, which is not as unreliable as it looks. His father was attracting attention openly, and his son contacted each other secretly. In addition to the empress dowager, there were also princesses involved. I wonder if there were anyone else involved, intending to get involved in the beautiful mountains and rivers in Zhongzhou.
After a few greetings back and forth, the two finally got to the point.
"Ling Zun is brave and resourceful, and has both virtue and talent. Although he is above ten thousand people in recent years, he has finally fallen below one person. In addition, with Marquis Li being there, he is really sorry that he cannot perform his talents. Fortunately, Marquis Li is able to wait and endure. Marquis Li has been eliminated in our plan. Now, we are finally going to take the second step."
Wen Yugui agreed quite well, "I haven't thanked the general well yet. When Marquis Li was there, my father was hindering everywhere, and even Wenqu star in the sky came to earth to do something. Fortunately, the general secretly helped him. The literati named Li Qing had excellent skills. Even Marquis Li himself could not see that the letters were actually written by someone else. He decided that they were written by Mrs. Zhu and he would deal with them without saying a word. My father and I originally thought Marquis Li would take into account the relationship between husband and wife and tolerate and shelter them. Fortunately, he put in some effort, but he didn't expect it to be so simple, hahaha."
Li Qianfan stood there and felt like his body fell into an ice cellar. When his elder brother's mother had an accident, he was outside, but after he returned, Mrs. Zhu was no longer alive. The people in the mansion and his father were all secretive about this matter. He later learned intermittently that Mrs. Zhu had letters with people outside, and his words were ambiguous and obscure. He was discovered by his father. The evidence was as strong as a mountain to argue, so he executed him in anger.
He also heard about Mrs. Zhu's origin. He heard that when he was young, he was just an ordinary woman in the martial arts world and had good martial arts skills. Later, for some reason, Mrs. Zhu got into the enemy's family. In order to avoid the enemy's pursuit, she hid in the Pingluoguan military camp in panic. At that time, her father was leading the battle to retreat to the enemy. The enemy was large and we were few. My father failed to suppress it several times. After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu volunteered to offer a brilliant plan, and her father really defeated the enemy. Later, Mrs. Zhu was able to stay and the woman could not go to the battlefield, so Mrs. Zhu always planned and proposed plans for her father. Over time, the two fell in love on the battlefield and naturally became a marriage.
When Li Qianfan heard that Mrs. Zhu had an affair with an outsider, she was shocked and had a hint of suspicion. She was well-manager in the Hou Mansion, and was humble and kind to the superiors and subordinates. She really loved him and taught him with all her strength that she never treated him harshly because she was not his own. He almost treated her as his mother. How could such a person have an affair with an outsider?
My father was also silent about what happened back then. He thought it was such a family scandal that his father had no shame to mention it. Today, he finally understood that all this was actually done by Wen Jingliang!
What a literary figure, in order to overwhelm his father, he actually attacked the innocent woman! Li Qianfan's face looked like snow falling on the winter night, and suddenly became cold.
But there is one thing he doesn't understand. It's his father who is hindering Wen Jingliang everywhere. Why did he attack Mrs. Zhu? Soon, the two people behind the wall gave him the answer.
"General, I have another question to say, I hope the general can solve my doubts."
"Please speak, please."
"At that time, Mrs. Zhu had already been sentenced to death, and Marquis Li used almost all the forces to suffocate the letters and other evidence. My father and I didn't expect that he had such ability. When the general knew about it, he immediately notified his father to interrupt the original plan. Why is this?"
"The young master doesn't know that those ambiguous words that believe that Mrs. Zhu had an affair with outsiders actually have other secrets. That is my secret method of Dijon. If you soak it in water for a while, the hidden words in the letter will be revealed again, and every word and sentence directly points to the enemy and treason. At that time, I didn't know if Marquis Li saw these, so I could only let the Lord keep his troops in order to avoid causing trouble."
So that's it... They actually made this forged evidence become true through the hands of Mrs. Zhu! If the matter is successful, Marquis Li's crime will be confirmed and he will be punished for his death. If the matter fails, the reputation of a woman who has nothing to do with them will be destroyed. Slay two birds with one stone. No matter which ends, they can completely discard themselves!
That year, the lintel of Li's mansion was pointed by thousands of people, and blood flowed into a river of ups and downs of the imperial capital. The palace gate square where the heads were beheaded was dazzling. Ten years have passed, and the remaining dark red blood can still be seen in the cracks of bricks at the corners. The mass graves outside the city are piled up like mountains, and they have not been cleaned up for three days and three nights. The summer is hot, and the corpses are rotten and smelly, attracting countless snakes, ants, mosquitoes, and he can only watch the headless corpses bitten into dead bones. He can never forget that among these people, his uncles, uncles, grandmothers and aunts, they all hugged themselves when they were young. There were 189 people from the Li clan, and only he and his brother survived.
Li Qianfan hid in the darkness, his heart became colder and colder, his face was as deep as a ghost, and his brown eyes were rolling with a huge amount of hatred. I don’t know how much concentration it took to resist the urge to kill these two people.
OK. OK. Today is a coincidence. Since he heard it, even if he blocks his life, he will definitely make them pay a heavy price!
The faint voice of the man came again, and a chilling air was brought with him.
Wen Yu asked: "How did the general make those letters circulate again later?"
Speaking of this, the man opposite him also had some questions, "I'm going to tell you that this matter was not done by me, and I'm also full of doubts."
"It was not done by the general, so who else can there be?" Wen Yugui murmured softly.
"This matter has been over for a long time. You don't have to worry too much. But you should pay too much attention to what's happening right now."
Wen Yugui nodded in agreement, "Indeed, the Queen Mother is seriously ill now, and I'm afraid she can't hold on for a long time. My father is preparing for it. Without Marquis Li in Zhongzhou, even the strongest army will have to be discounted. Just wait until we get the military talisman from the Queen Mother one step earlier than Emperor Xiao, we can rest assured. I wonder what the situation in Tianji is now?"
The general smiled, "Dijon's weapons have been exported to various vassal states. The two princes of Tianji are now evenly matched and have no military power. The only emperor who can order thousands of troops is seriously ill and cannot issue orders. Just wait for the death period of the country, the vassal states are concerned about dividing Tianji and will definitely go to war with him. When both of them are injured, the general will then let the general soldiers conquer them in one fell swoop. At that time, Zhongzhou will be left with only empty shells. We will kill two birds with one stone and divide the world equally!"
"It's so great. Next year's day must be the day when you and I will always unite the Qin and Jin dynasties, hahaha!" A crisp clinking sounded throughout the stone chamber. The general suddenly sneered, his eyes looked like lightning in the direction of the stone wall, and a slightly gloomy voice floated slowly.
"Your Excellency has heard this for so long, and the confusion in your heart can be eliminated?"
After this sentence, the air in the stone chamber suddenly solidified, and the needle fell to the ground. The fire light flashed on the wall, and the shadows that were stretched and enlarged were projected on the ground, and the stone figures remained motionless.
Li Qianfan's heart sank, and then returned to normal. His handsome face was calm and quiet, and he flashed out of the gap.
Some things cannot be avoided all the time. If he goes all the way to this day, he will at least be able to move forward bravely.
Without the obstruction of the stone wall, the fire in the stone chamber on the other side was magnificent, reflecting the wide underground chamber as bright as daytime. More than a dozen masked guards were placed at the door of the chamber, wearing long swords, and motionless. Without the orders of the master, they did not even blink.
Two people sat opposite each other in the center of the meeting hall. Wen Yugui saw Li Qianfan as if he saw a ghost. The blood and smile on his face faded instantly. He suddenly stood up, stared at him with his eyes and said incredibly: "You, you are, why... how could it be you!"
Li Qianfan was so happy that he smiled and stared at him, "I haven't seen you for many years, Mr. Wen is fine?"
Wen Yugui was trembling all over. Li Qianfan stood beside the torch, half of his face was pale, while the other half was hidden in the black shadow. His brown eyes were cold and sharp, with a cold feeling. A vague and strange smile appeared on the corners of his red lips, as if he was from a ghost underground.
Wen Yugui was so scared that his face was gone. He couldn't help but take two steps back, and his voice changed, "Li Qianfan, you are not dead!"
"What? You were watching from the side when I died." Li Qianfan's voice suddenly became low and he said slowly, "Didn't my head roll to your feet? It's right there..." He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Wen Yugui's feet. The latter screamed and jumped up immediately.
At this time, the general who had been sitting with his back to Li Qianfan suddenly spoke, with jokes and disdain in his tone, "The sky is blue and white, why should you scare people?"
Li Qianfan frowned, his face changed back to normal, and he sneered, with a faint mockery between his eyebrows, "Li never frightens people." He deliberately emphasized the last word, meaning that Wen Yugui is not a human being.
"Mr. Wen, there is a fish that has escaped the net in the Li family. It seems that Ling Zun needs to check it out."
Wen Yugui recovered at this time, with a hint of viciousness on his face, staring at Li Qianfan tightly, his voice almost squeezed out from his teeth, "It's time to check it out."
Li Qianfan turned his gaze and landed on the general who had been sitting with his back to him, "General Qiang Ye, are you so stingy to see him?"
The man smiled, "Young Master Li came from Zhongzhou and was dormant in Dijon alone. He also found my base camp. After hearing a few words, he guessed my identity. He was indeed smart. But there is a saying, I don't know if the young master has heard it."
Li Qianfan didn't say anything, looked at the man slowly getting up, and turned around while talking, "That sentence is that God is jealous of talent."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiang Ye's face happened to appear in front of Li Qianfan.
Li Qianfan's pupils shrank, and the indifference on his face faded a little, "It's you?"

The trailer for the next chapter: The man in front of him was lying in bed not long ago unconscious. Now he is standing here, pale and thin, old and even looks a little embarrassed because of his old illness. But he just glanced lightly, his eyes were sharp and cold, and the innate dragon power immediately forced people to surrender.
