Lei Yue Longmen

At this moment, Cheng Gongjiang turned his head and stared at Meng Ran intently.Suddenly he asked with great interest, "Why did I add this general to my command?" Zhou Xiaoshan's heart was about to explode, but Meng Ran didn't change his face, and turned around and said, "The humble job is Gong Yi? The general's subordinate is Yu Liang."

Cheng Gongjiang: "Yu Liang? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Meng Ran: "Humble year? Just joined the army at the beginning of the year. Before that, he had been escorting food and grass with the army. Later, because he helped General Gong tame a strong horse, he was promoted to be a centurion. Because the commander resigned, he temporarily acted as the commander."

Chenggong Jiang suddenly realized, "Oh, so it's you!" Then his eyes showed admiration, "I heard that there was such a person in the barracks before, but I have never seen it? It turned out to be you." He smiled to the left and right, " Is this Gongyi? Not righteous? Ah! Such a treasure is hidden under his command, and he doesn’t show it to others.”

Although none of the crowd recognized him, they all laughed in unison with the general.

Cheng Gongjiang suddenly became serious, and commented: "Such a good talent, given time, can be a great general!"

Meng Ran clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your praise!"

This Chenggong Jiang has always been a lover of talents, he stroked the beautiful beard under his chin, and shook his head with a smile.He intends to promote him, "Mingjin withdraws troops later, and the garrison of this Marquis will be guarded by General Yu Liang, how about it!"

"Thank you, Lord Hou, for your love, I will definitely fulfill my mission in the end!"

"Then the old man can sleep peacefully tonight? No worries. Hahahaha..."

Zhou Xiaoshan was completely dumbfounded. How could he know that this Meng Ran looked simple and honest, but he was actually a delicate heart with eyes and ears listening to all directions. When he met the West? A conversation between two people in the team? Listen to it.One of them was Yu Liang, a bragging madman. He talked about how he saved Gong Yi. The general was in distress when he fell from a horse, and he said that General Gong had given him a letter of approval. He will definitely recommend him as a general in front of Cheng Gongjiang.He doesn't know who Yu Liang is, but the story of saving Gong Yi must not be a fiction.Using such half-truths and half-false facts to make a bad news is a technique he learned from someone many years ago.This trick is effective for both high-level generals and low-level soldiers, and it has been tried and tested.Because half of the so-called "facts" are provided by oneself, and half are made up by the other party's imagination. People often believe in what they "reasonably infer" based on "facts".Including himself is also unavoidable.

Cheng Gongjiang has now established a complete set of impressions of him in his heart, and he will always believe in it until the insider reveals it.But Zhou Xiaoshan didn't know what was going on, and when he glanced at Cheng Gongjiang's enthusiastic appearance like a treasure, goosebumps jumped up.I think Meng Ran must have given this old guy some kind of talisman, otherwise why would he be so "stupid".

The fighting in front of and behind the mountain quickly subsided.All the northern Xinjiang soldiers surrendered. When counting the prisoners of war, they found that they had left Tu Yuanshan.Cheng Gongjiang wanted to send a cavalry to hunt him down.At this time, King Cheng took the initiative to invite Ying to lead the Shenwu army to attack.Cheng Gongjiang nodded, besides that, he allocated an extra battalion of soldiers and horses to assist him in capturing the thief.

"Did Hou Ye let Tu Yuanshan go on purpose? Okay? Let King Cheng have a chance to take this credit?" On the way back to the army, Meng Ran suddenly said.Cheng Gong Jiang stroked his beard when he heard the words, and laughed loudly: "The one who knows me is Yu Liang!"

He did not deny it: "This 15-year-old hairy doll is eager to make contributions. If you don't let him attack, he blames you for not giving him a chance. If you give him a chance, he can't grasp it himself. Isn't it hard for us? , pull out the thorn first, and let him wield the spear and stick as he pleases."

Meng Ran said, "Not seen at the age of 15? Is it so useless?"

Cheng Gongjiang glanced at him, seeming to be interested in what he said, and said: "That's natural, and people are different. The nine sons of a dragon are different. Whoever's turn is his, this is fate." , beyond human intervention.”

"Master Cheng, why do you express your emotion?"

When Cheng Gongjiang heard this voice, his neck felt a chill, and he stopped immediately, "Who is it? How dare you play tricks?"

There is no one around.He suddenly noticed that the mountain-shaped outlines around him were no longer the path he took at first.Immediately shouted: "Liang Qu! Liang Qu!"

Liang Qu was his personal bodyguard, and Meng Ran had already found a way to control him.Of course there will be no response.

"Marquis Dingnan, Liang Qu is behind."

"Call him here!"

Meng Ran didn't move, but got closer and closer.Cheng Gongjiang realized something, suddenly turned the horse's head, slammed the horse's belly, and was about to flee up the mountain.However, just a few steps away, a pistol was fired rapidly, and the horse's head fell to the ground, and Cheng Gongjiang fell heavily and snatched away.The helmet fell off, and the armor rolled on the cold and hard ground with a rattling sound.When the pain came to an end, several blades were already on his neck?

"You... who are you?"

Zhou Xiaoshan picked him up, dragged him back, and dragged him in front of Meng Ran.At this moment, the shadow hidden behind Meng Ran's tall body lightly knocked on the horse's belly, and walked around in front of him.He took off his cloak, and said with a half-smile, "Uncle Cheng Biao, don't come here for nothing!"

Cheng Gongjiang stared at his eyes, confirmed repeatedly, and suddenly realized, "It turned out to be you, and you didn't die! All this is your plan."

The man smiled, "I disappointed my cousin."

Cheng Gongjiang gasped for breath, pondered for a while, and immediately expressed his attitude: "Since Your Highness is safe and sound, the court is naturally..."

Li Jingchen didn't wait for him to finish, and said: "No one can take what is mine? So don't bother my cousin to worry about it."

"Your Highness!" Cheng Gongjiang struggled a bit, "The veteran did not do anything harmful to the East Palace beforehand. It's just a matter of urgent power and helplessness."

Zhou Xiaoshan secretly despised this old guy, and even said that he was so humiliated by taking advantage of his fate.

"Cousin don't need to express your heart in a hurry. Gu is not an unreasonable person. If you want to collect debts, you will definitely not ask for it on your cousin."

"then you……"

"Gu just wants to borrow my cousin's handsome seal and soldier talisman!"

Cheng Gong Jiang was stunned when he heard the words, Zhou Xiaoshan immediately stripped him all over, and took out a Xi?South commander seal wrapped in blue cloth, and a soldier talisman in the shape of a lying leopard.

Li Jingchen got the commander's seal and the soldier's talisman and took a photo with the firelight. After confirming that they were correct, they handed them over to Meng Ran.

"It is said that the general of Xi? Nan Ding Nanhou will lead [-] soldiers and horses, surround the Shenwu army, and capture King Cheng alive!"

"promise!"

Cheng Gongjiang's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt his knees go limp, as if a ghost came out of the ground, grabbed his feet, and dragged him desperately into hell.

"His Royal Highness is so blatantly dragging the west to the south into the water, to trap the minister in injustice, to sink the west to the south into a desperate situation! The old minister vows to die!"

After all, he wanted to take the knife and kill himself.

"If my cousin wants to die, no one will stop you. However, I forgot to tell my cousin that my aunt and a few cousins ​​are currently in the hands of my aunt. My cousin will take care of their lives. "

After all, he threw him a handkerchief, on which was a distress letter written by Mrs. Cheng Du Ruozhu in blood.

"you!!!"

Li Jingchen sneered and said: "When my cousin was begging for thieves, I sent someone to go to my cousin's old lair, and brought my aunt to reunite with my cousin. If my cousin knows the current affairs, he should obey the destiny, it's okay Keep the husband and wife safe, and the whole family reunite. Otherwise," she turned around, pointed at Meng Ran and said, "There is a general who is alone, and within three years, he will lead the army to flatten the west and south, and smash you to the tomb of your ancestors! At that time, my cousin won't be able to talk anymore!"

Cheng Gongjiang subconsciously looked at Meng Ran. His eyes, which he felt so familiar with when he first saw him, were staring at him like a fierce tiger, as if they were about to pounce on him in the next moment and bite off his neck.

"You... who are you?"

Li Jingchen turned around and left in disdain, and said to Meng Ran when they crossed paths: "Tell him, let him give up completely."

"promise!"

Meng Ran jumped off the horse, passed his ear, and said a name in a voice that only two people could hear.

Cheng Gongjiang looked at him dumbfounded, strode away, and turned on his horse.His expression looked like he had seen a ghost.Zhou Xiaoshan couldn't help being curious, "What did he say?" Cheng Gongjiang didn't say anything, but he did cooperate a lot after that.

Two hours later, Cheng Wang was caught in a panic, and looked at Cheng Gongjiang who was sitting at the front of the table.He yelled: "Shameless old thief, you dare to hurt someone in the back and plan to harm me! If the emperor knows, he will definitely tear you to pieces!"

Cheng Gongjiang didn't say anything, but a clerk next to him spoke up, "His Royal Highness, please be patient, this is a confession letter, please sign it first."

King Cheng was furious, "What plea? What nonsense are you talking about?"

The clerk unhurriedly spread the confession form on the ground in front of him? With the pen and ink beside him, he squatted in front of him and said:

"When the empress dowager was still in power, Prince Cheng's House and Pan Suiyong formed a private party, using power for profit, in an attempt to overthrow the East Palace and seek the crown prince. Among them, the staff of Prince Cheng's House made rebellious remarks in the house many times. Every day This is the first one. Second, when the empress dowager was trapped in northern Xinjiang, Pan Suiyong secretly contacted the private party and fabricated charges to frame the two generals Zhu Yu'an and Mu Yunzhong, causing them to resign. , Prince Cheng took the opportunity to push one of his own people to the throne, in an attempt to control the capital's military force, and conspired to force the palace. Third, when Mrs. Tan Fu resigned, he ordered the palaces to stop accepting filial piety from lower officials. He did not restrain himself, but used the collected money to overhaul the Literature Museum, to feed guests, and to seek profit for himself. There are other crimes, so I won’t go into details here, on paper? Remember clearly, King Cheng, please sign and pledge!”

King Cheng only glanced at the black and white paper, grabbed it and threw it on his face. "You want to wipe out Prince Cheng's mansion, and wipe out everyone who supports this king! Say, who sent you here, didn't you?" King Dun?!!!"

The man closed his eyes and received the falling ball of paper, and he was not annoyed. He went to the table and took a new one, and spread it in front of him again, "Don't worry, there are more here." King Cheng wanted to tear it up again, but was The two people beside him clamped their arms and couldn't move.

Cheng Gongjiang still say a word? Don't say it.King Cheng's bones were cracked, but he still gritted his teeth and resisted. "You don't want me to sign it! I would rather die than sign it."

The clerk said: "The result is the same whether you sign or not. Because this is what Donggong means."

At that moment, King Cheng suddenly raised his head and looked at them in disbelief.Cheng Gongjiang's refusal to make a statement is already a statement.The people on the left and right obviously felt that his arm was loose, as if he lost all his strength in an instant, and the solid thing in his eyes began to collapse and collapse gradually, as if he had been sentenced to death.Until the eyes filled with tears.

Hearing that King Cheng refused to be pledged and refused to eat, Li Jingchen just took it as a trivial incident that had nothing to do with him and turned a deaf ear to it.The guard in custody probably guessed that she was blaming herself for not being able to do things well, and she wanted to show it. After going back, she thought of a way, found a tube from the doctor, and ordered four or five people to hold him still. Insert it into his stomach and force him to eat liquid food like a patient.King Cheng couldn't bear the humiliation and touched the wall with his head, but because of timely rescue, he failed to die.

"Are you disobedient? Next time, I'll insert you through the door of the buttocks! But the doctor said, you can't die if you 'eat' like this." Li Jingnan had a bulging vein on his forehead, wishing he could tear this person to pieces. part.But the sunken eyes could not stare with any power.

"However? Speaking of which, it would be better if you died. If you die your mother who is a concubine, you will be thrown into a mass grave after a hundred years, and buried in a random hole. No one dies, No one is filial, and lonely souls and wild ghosts are gone. Even that Concubine Pei will end up better than her? You are suffering in life, so why not hurry up and die, lest you dirty Donggong's hands!" After speaking, he gave him a face-to-face palm.

King Cheng was beaten to the point of drooling, and when he looked at him, his eyes were red with murderous intent.But after that, he began to eat obediently. Although he would spit out most of the food every time he ate, he began to tell himself secretly in his heart that he must live and get out of here alive.

It lasted like this for nearly ten days, and every day the escorts took pleasure in torturing and humiliating him. Seeing that he didn't resist, he swung his fists harder, and the more he hit, the more addicted he was.Once he couldn't stand the beating, he lay down on the ground and begged for mercy, saying: "I'm betting! I'm begging!" When those? More vicious beatings.

Even later, he began to wonder why he persisted, and what was the point of doing so? Why not just die.

This morning? For the first time in history, those military officers did not come to harass him.But he didn't come to deliver food to himself.At night, he was so hungry that he fell asleep early. In his dream, he saw his mother, anxiously looking for himself.Waking up with tears in my eyes.I found myself curled up in a corner in the corner, because I had no strength in my body due to hunger.Suddenly I heard those military envoys discussing outside the house, "In the past few days? Your Highness suddenly started to care about this guy. This morning? He even asked about his food. I just made a perfunctory sentence. This little boy Jin Zunyu Expensive, food? Some? Picky, she said it might be acclimatization, and I will ask a doctor to take a look. If the doctor comes, he may find some injuries on his body. If His Highness asks, I am afraid it will be wrong Okay? Deal with it. How about? Let's set a fire and burn this place down, pretending that this little guy wanted to kill himself and set the house on fire while the guards weren't paying attention. If His Highness asks at that time, we can explain it. "The atmosphere was suddenly silent: "It's a good idea, but what if the little boy screams? If it disturbs people and doesn't die, it's not a bad thing." ? Didn’t feed that little boy, he can’t even lift his arms now, how can he have the strength to scream!” “My buddy is thoughtful, so let’s do it this way!”

Hearing the sound of thatch being laid outside, King Cheng trembled violently. He never knew that people's hearts could be so dangerous. Just because they were afraid of being held accountable afterwards, these people wanted to take his sex. Life.

The will to survive forced him to get up tremblingly, rushed to the door, shook the door violently, and found that the doors and windows had been sealed.Green smoke came in from the crack in the door, and he was choked to tears, he couldn't say a word in a hoarse voice, but kept knocking on the door, opening his mouth in despair: "Father, mother, help me!" !"
