A traitor
Chapter 134
What Chen Muhai said was extremely brief, but Mei Liusheng already knew the ins and outs of it.
Back then, Xie Yu and Su Qinglang were thrown into the sky prison. Seeing that the group of four was about to be wiped out, due to some reasons, Su Qinglang had a chance to escape.
So, being as smart as Xie Yu, they quickly thought of a way, and made a decision that was extremely cruel to Su Qinglang.
Let Su Qinglang turn his back on the battlefield in court, betray his classmates, save the lives of himself and his family, and push them to death.
Afterwards, in order for Su Qinglang to gain Qin Jian's trust, he even made him an official to supervise and execute those who were extremely important to him.
After that incident, Qin Jian really entrusted Su Qinglang with a heavy responsibility, and since then, Su Qinglang has put on a mask and sang bad faces, doing things that hurt nature and reason on the surface, but in fact he is desperate to help his classmates His best friend was rehabilitated, and Kuang Fu Nan Tang's precarious country.
He didn't know what kind of mood Xie Yu had at the beginning to make this decision.
I don't know how heartbroken Su Qinglang was to agree to such a plan.
The so-called life is better than death, roughly so.
Obviously he can't forget it, and he is obviously guilty, but he has to do those things against his will.
No one understands, no one supports him, this road is too hard for him, but he has to force himself to go on.
Hundreds of human lives weighed heavily on his shoulders, each of which was a blood debt that he could not repay in his entire life, going round and round, tormented day and night, smart as him, trapped in such a demon, but never been out.
Maybe he can pretend that he has never heard of others' accusations and abuse, but how can he erase what is in his heart?
Although he had doubts before, when he really heard such a thing, Mei Liusheng still couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
He thought, that Xie Yu must be the most cruel person in the world.
Everyone cherishes their own reputation, even Xie Yu himself left a Su Qinglang before his death to clear his name.
However, has Xie Yu ever thought about Su Qinglang, after this matter is completed, their stigma will be washed away, but what kind of situation will Su Qinglang face?
Even if people in the world can understand and know that this is their helpless choice.However, can Su Qinglang forgive himself?
He still remembers that his hands were once covered with blood, so whenever he saw a bloody scene, he would be frightened and panicked, and even fell ill.
Putting such a heavy plan on him, was Xie Yu too cruel, or did he simply overestimate Su Qinglang's ability, thinking that he could calm down and let go?
Mei Liusheng stood there, wanting to turn around and look at Su Qinglang again.However, he just stood, with heavy steps, using the greatest concentration.
He thought, if he were Xie Yu, he would definitely not do such a thing, and would rather let Su Qinglang die with him than let him live so hard.
However, he is not Xie Yu after all...
A person who has suffered a huge humiliation, even if he abandons his dignity and kneels down to beg for mercy, he still has to save his life to complete that matter.
That's how Su Qinglang loved Xie Yu, so much that he forgot that he was such an arrogant person.
But Su Qinglang, what will he do for him, how far he can go for him, even if he has a little bit of him in his heart...
Mei Liusheng found that even such a thing made him extremely jealous.
Such a mood is ridiculous, after all, he is still alive, Su Qinglang is still alive, and that Xie Yu is already dead.
He was in a daze for a moment, then looked at Chen Muhai and said, "Does anyone else know about this?"
Chen Muhai shook his head: "Master Su only mentioned it to the last general."
He paused: "At that time... the situation was critical, Mr. Su thought he was dying..."
Mei Liusheng hummed, and then heard him ask: "Do you want to talk to General Cheng and the others about this?"
"No need for now." Mei Liusheng continued: "Since he has kept the secret up to now, he has his own reasons. There are many people with mixed opinions. If it is leaked out, wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted?"
"But……"
Chen Muhai couldn't bear it, looked at the direction of Su Qinglang's room, and then lowered his head: "To be honest, the general felt uncomfortable after learning about such a thing, especially when he saw those people misunderstood Mr. Su, he felt even more sad. , Just now, I almost stood up and said, you all misunderstood Master Su.
He is not such a person, but now, we know it clearly, but we can only watch helplessly and cannot bear half of it for him. "
Mei Liusheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Qinglang is much stronger than you imagined, and your understanding of him is the greatest support for him."
Chen Muhai nodded, and said again: "The last general is incompetent, but Master Mei is a person who does great things. If you can help Master Su in the future, please be sure to stay by his side."
As he spoke, he gave a wry smile: "The last general has fought for so many years, and the most tormenting thing is that he loses his support, and it's time for him to fight alone."
Mei Liusheng nodded in affirmation, and then said with emotion: "For him, what he wants to do most now is to uncover the truth of the past."
Chen Muhai followed suit with a sigh: "I just hope that day will come sooner, so Master Su can be relieved, don't work so hard."
However, Mei Liusheng felt even more heavy in his words.
If that day really comes, can Su Qinglang really be freed from being scolded by others?
The world is changing and people's hearts are complicated. Even if they can understand Su Qinglang, who can guarantee that other people will not have other ideas?
After bidding farewell to Chen Muhai, he went to find Cheng Qi. At this time, Cheng Qi was furious about Cheng Ying's affairs. When he saw Mei Liusheng approaching, he rushed to greet him.
After pushing away the people in the hall, he saluted Mei Liusheng: "See Your Highness."
Mei Liusheng was still thinking about Su Qinglang's matter, so he just responded vaguely, then looked at Cheng Qi and said, "General Cheng, please get up."
Seeing Cheng Qi straighten his waist, he said: "Today's matter, thanks to General Cheng and all the generals, otherwise I might fall into the hands of those gangsters."
Cheng Qi replied: "This matter is all due to my daughter's fault, what's more, it is the duty of the minister to protect His Highness, and His Highness's behavior makes the minister even more ashamed."
Because of the injuries on his body and the fact that he was really tired after traveling all day, Mei Liusheng didn't want to chat with him.
Go straight to the topic and say: "Today, this king was in a hurry and leaked his identity. I don't know about that..."
Cheng Qi replied again: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already explained it, no one will talk nonsense, it's just..."
He paused, a little worried: "That Mr. Cai..."
Mei Liusheng had already thought about Cai Jun's place, but because of his previous friendship and his status as a minister, it was not good to do anything to him.
So I only let Chengying watch in secret for the time being, to see how his attitude towards this matter is. If he is willing to submit to himself, it is a good thing, if he is not willing...
We can only find a way to make him "disappear" for a period of time, at least in a short period of time, so that he cannot communicate with Chang'an, and has the opportunity to reveal his identity. In the future, when the overall situation is settled and the event has been accomplished, he will be released again. That's it.
So, he said seriously: "Master Cai, you don't have to worry, I have other arrangements."
Cheng Qi nodded. He obviously had something on his mind and wanted to say something to Mei Liusheng, but he kept hesitating.
Mei Liusheng knew what he was going to say, but he remained calm, waiting for him to speak.
Sure enough, after a while, Cheng Qi hesitated and said: "Your Highness, there is one more thing..."
As he said that, he knelt down in front of Mei Liusheng, and wept bitterly on the ground: "I know that my little girl has committed a lot of crimes, but... Please Your Highness save her life..."
Mei Liusheng pretended to be taken aback, and hurriedly said: "General Cheng, what are you doing, just say what you have to say."
Cheng Qi raised his head with tears streaming down his face, and said: "Today's matter is all due to the incompetence of this minister. She has committed such a big mistake, and she should not beg His Highness for forgiveness anymore. However... this minister is only one girl. When my wife passed away, I promised her to take good care of my daughter, I am willing to shoulder the responsibility of my daughter, and I also ask His Highness to save my daughter's life."
Thinking of Cheng Ying's mistakes and what she did to Su Qinglang before, Mei Liusheng really didn't want to, but the current situation doesn't allow him to be arrogant.
So, he put on a embarrassed look and said: "If it's possible, with the friendship between you and me, General Cheng, why doesn't this king want to save Ling'ai, but..."
He sighed: "You also heard that Su Qinglang kept saying that he would investigate to the end. I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Cheng Qi knew that he was testing his attitude and wanted a guarantee from him.However, when the words came to his lips, his heart was disturbed, but he couldn't say anything.
Then I heard Mei Liusheng say: "I have thought of a way here. However, I need to make my love suffer."
Cheng Qi raised his head immediately: "Please speak, Your Highness."
Mei Liusheng turned around, took a few steps forward, and said with his hands behind his back: "Since ancient times, the Criminal Department's Dali Temple has tried criminal cases. It is necessary to question witnesses and criminals. If at this time, Ling Ai is injured and her life is in danger, the trial has to be postponed." The schedule of the case will not proceed until Ling Ai recovers."
He said, looking sideways at Cheng Qi: "Just wait until the king's affairs are completed, and then the king will have real power in his hands. General Cheng will find another death row prisoner, and there will be plenty of opportunities to save your love. "
Cheng Qi fell silent. Mei Liusheng's words were obviously intended to directly link Cheng Ying's life with his great cause.
How many days can this kind of thing be delayed by procrastination alone?If he wanted to save Cheng Ying, he had to help him achieve his wish as soon as possible.
He lowered his head, thought for a long time, and then said: "My little girl made such a big mistake, she should suffer a little bit, and I have to thank Your Highness for this matter."
After a pause, he said again: "Your Highness is very kind, I am grateful, and I will definitely tie a grass ring to repay Your Highness's kindness."
Back then, Xie Yu and Su Qinglang were thrown into the sky prison. Seeing that the group of four was about to be wiped out, due to some reasons, Su Qinglang had a chance to escape.
So, being as smart as Xie Yu, they quickly thought of a way, and made a decision that was extremely cruel to Su Qinglang.
