central prison

The captured General Wan Yang was imprisoned in a secret prison.It was Qi You's order to send Qingfeng to the barracks to capture the general alive.There is only one thing Qi You wants to know, and that is how Wan Yang got the first-hand information about Nan Xia. He must find out the secret work hidden in Nan Xia.

After splashing water on the man's face, the man came to his senses and guessed that the man in front of him was the emperor of Nanxia.

"It's very strange. You obviously took poison and should have died on the road, but you were brought here alive."

This is what Qi You had expected.When he asked Qingfeng to go to the east, he left behind a grain of "Hundred Poison Relief", which Qi You and Wen Hao wanted at the beginning, and it can cure most of the world's poisons.He was ordered to feed him when he was first captured to prevent him from committing suicide.

It's just that the chief general's mouth was tight and ruthless, and the inquiries after several days were fruitless, so Qi You had no choice but to use torture.

"Don't worry, I will never let you lose a piece of skin or a piece of meat." Qi You clearly said this with a smile, but it made people shudder.

Qi You ordered someone to pry off his fingernails and toenails. The people in the prison screamed, but they never asked for mercy.

"No rush, I have plenty of time, and you have plenty of time too."

When the new nails are about to grow, all ten fingers and toes are pink and itchy. At this time, honey is sprinkled on them to attract ants to bite them. Repeat this to prevent the new nails from growing. come out.

This method really didn't make Wan Yang lose a piece of skin or a piece of flesh, it was just a long-term torture, grinding one's will.

On this day, Qi You personally came to oversee the work, watching the ants greedily nibble on the tender meat dipped in honey,

"My lord, if you are gnawed down by ants like this again, be careful that your finger bones will be gnawed away, and you will become a useless person with all ten fingers broken."

The bone-biting pain of thousands of ants made the man gasp in pain.

"Scholars can be killed but not humiliated!"

"Hahahahaha!" Qi You laughed heartily, these words are useless to Qi You, it's up to him to kill or humiliate him.

"Wan Yang's commander really has a lot of backbone, okay, let's wait until the bones of the fingers are finished, and then think about whether your backbone will be gnawed away."

Qi You left, and the prison door was locked.

In the dead of night, the prison was gloomy. Someone came to the secret prison with cat's footsteps, and secretly broke open the lock.

"Who?" General Wan Yang opened his eyes, his eyes became cloudy due to the torture of his body, but the vigilance and will of the general remained in the pupils.

It seemed to him that he was completely dressed in black, with his face covered, and he couldn't tell which faction he belonged to, whether he was an enemy or a friend.

"Don't shout, I'm here to let you die as you wish."

The general guessed who it was, and he nodded. Death was his only relief.

The man in black made a quick move, wiped his knife across his neck, and sent him on his way.The general really didn't make a sound, and didn't even blink his eyes.What a strong man, the man in black covered his unsightly eyes, kowtowed respectfully and then left.

On the second day, when he saw the dead person in the secret prison, the only clue was broken like this, the emperor was furious.Specially send Qingfeng and a series of shadows to find out who is so rampant and dares to kill people under the eyes of the emperor.

Qingfeng has investigated the secret prison, this person is good at using poison, but he did not poison a single soldier to death, which shows that this person has a clear goal and does not kill innocent people; seeing blood seals his throat, he kills him with a single knife, he is a well-trained killer; He went all the way to the secret prison but did not attract much fighting. This person has done a lot of research on the structure of the prison and the deployment of soldiers; he was able to escape from the heavy siege of the central prison, which is very good at light work.

It can be seen that he is a quack killer with excellent tactics and excellent martial arts. Qingfeng came to the above conclusion.

However, there were other gains. When Qingfeng inspected the eaves of the prison, he found bloodstains. The killer also made a mistake and was hit by the mechanism on the roof.

Taoman has nothing to do now, instead he often visits Mo Changsheng to play, and he is a regular visitor in and out of the General's Mansion.

General Mo also saw it. He thought he was a barbarian who knocked out his son's teeth, but this battle of Wanyang made General Mo look at him with admiration. He expected that Taoman would have a bright future.

"General Huaihua."

General Mo couldn't stand the sound of Tao Man, he didn't know whether he should kneel down and salute or something,

"General Mo, please don't call me that. You can call me Taoman. In my heart, you are a mountain in Nanxia. No one deserves to be called a general in front of you."

Taoman's words are suspected of being flattering, but they are also full of truth. General Mo is indeed his role model for Taoman.

"Hahahaha, you boy can really talk."

General Mo was very happy with what he said, and he invited Taoman to visit the Mo family's military library, the Mo family's Art of War library, Tao Man was also very interested, and had a good chat with General Mo.

Mo Changsheng was left behind reluctantly, and he had never seen his father get along with him like this.

Mo Changsheng deliberately raised his voice: "Taoman, don't look, we agreed to go out to play."

General Mo raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes when he turned his head. This brat completely displeased him.

After Mo Changsheng's reminder, Taoman also understood that he was unhappy, so he found an excuse to say goodbye to General Mo.

General Mo looked at Mo Changsheng and Taoman who left from the corridor, they were so young and frivolous, accompanied by such a confidant, it reminded him of himself when he was young.

After walking out of the general's mansion, Mo Changsheng's anger subsided a little, and he chatted with Taoman.

"Taoman, why don't you live in the mansion that the emperor granted you, instead of living in the dilapidated house in the west of the city."

"Mo Changsheng, it's not a shabby household. Man Ye, I'd like to live there."

"Oh."

The two were walking, and Taoman saw that the figure of the person in front of him was somewhat familiar, but the way he walked was a bit strange.

"Xiao Yan—"

"The villain has met General Huaihua, and General Changsheng." Xiao Yan said, showing that perfect smile with exquisite faces.

No matter what, Taoman felt the shock of being called by him,

"Xiao Meiren, what's wrong with you? I think you're not walking right."

When asked by Taoman, Xiao Yan was embarrassed,

"Hmm... the gold master played too much."

"Eh..." The atmosphere was a bit delicate for a while, Tao Man originally wanted to ridicule Xiao Yan, but felt that he was a bit pitiful,

"Well, making money is the most important thing, and the body also needs to eat it. Don't turn around and waste your life."

"General Xie Huaihua is concerned, don't disturb the two of you, Xiao Yan is going to get the medicine first."

"Taoman, what kind of benefactor? What kind of fun? Why can't I understand."

Tao Man thought that this Young Master Mo was still innocent,

"Pull it down if you don't understand."

"Oh... who is he, your friend?"

"No, it's my master's deadly enemy."

"Oh."

……

After the Battle of Wanyang, Nanxia can be regarded as restored to peace.

Winter goes to spring, one year later.

Today, General Mo made a special trip to the palace.

"Does the emperor still remember the request made by the old minister?"

"I remember." Qi You said, and he helped General Mo get up and take his seat. In front of this loyal and loyal veteran of the three dynasties, he, a junior, was absolutely respectful and did not put on airs of the emperor.

Back when Qi You asked General Mo to unite with King Ye, General Mo only put forward one condition, but he asked for a good marriage for his only daughter.

"General Mo, do you want your daughter to enter the palace?"

General Mo shook his head. Once he entered the imperial city, it was as deep as the sea. He didn't want his daughter to be involved in the harem battle.

"My daughter may not have this blessing to accept Long's favor. I just ask the emperor to find a good man for my daughter in the court. I don't need a high official and rich salary, but I want to be of good conduct and protect them for life. The old minister will be satisfied."

"I will definitely find a good marriage for Mo Qianjin."

"The old minister thanked the emperor."

General Mo wanted to get up again to salute. He was really old, and Mo Changsheng was still young, so there was no rush for marriage.His wife left early, and his daughter was reluctant to get married in order to be by his side. Seeing that it was delayed year after year, he was afraid that he would die one day, and he didn't even see his daughter getting married.

On another day, the emperor specially invited Lord Yushi to enter the palace.

Wenjun woke up in the morning and felt that his eyelids were twitching violently, and now he was face-to-face with orders, and he felt that nothing good would happen.

"I have seen the emperor."

"Aiqing is free."

"How much does Wen Aiqing know about the Mo family?"

"Wen Jun is superficial and knows very little."

"Do you still remember that Mo Jiang helped me that day?"

"remember."

"How do you know how many loyal soldiers he has under his command? Why didn't the soldiers he brought to attack Yunjiang when King Ye failed to break into the Qiankun Palace back then?" Qi You approached Wenjun and patted him on the shoulder, "Because Two-thirds of our Nanxia troops are from his Mo family army."

Wen Jun really doesn't know this, he cares more about court affairs, but only knows a little bit about national defense and force.

"Also, think about how old Mo Changsheng is, how old is General Mo?"

Mo Changsheng, that heroic young general Wen Jun still has a little impression. After the emperor said this, he realized that there is indeed a big age difference between Young Master Mo and General Mo.

"He is the fourth son of General Mo. The other three died in battle. The blood of his Mo family has been shed for Nanxia for generations. I say that the land and mountains of Nanxia are piled up with flesh and blood by generations of Mo family children. Yes, not exaggerating at all."

Wen Jun was also in awe when he heard this.

"By the way, General Mo also mentioned you to me. He spoke highly of our censor who is in charge of the country. He said that you are a dragon and phoenix among men, and he wanted me to be a matchmaker for him."

"Your Majesty, you are joking."

"Hahahahaha..."

Then Qi You said something else to him, and didn't bring up this topic again.But Wen Jun was confused, and his heart was fluctuating.

In a few days, a marriage decree was announced to the world.

Wen Jun knew that the emperor was not joking with him.The imperial decree was sent to Yushifu, and after the father-in-law read it out, Wen Jun knelt down for a long time and did not pick it up. The scene was embarrassing for a while, and the soldiers who came with him all clenched their sword handles.

The father-in-law just thought that the censor was too happy to react, so he had to press his throat again:

"My lord, please accept the order!"

The servant next to him was anxious, and whispered: "Master, you accept the order, are you going to resist the order?"

Only then did Wenjun slowly raise his hand, and the imperial decree was handed over to him, as if he was holding a fast-burning iron, and his hand hurt so much.

"My minister leads the decree, thank you Lord Long En."

The sky has been fine for the past few days, but today it is raining heavily, pouring down like splashing water.

Incense wafted in the imperial study room, Qi You casually played with the string of red sandalwood willows, distinguishing the footsteps of the breeze from the sound of rain.

"What is the reaction of Lord Yushi?"

From the moment the imperial decree was sent out, Qingfeng was ordered to follow it all the time.

"Back to the emperor, Lord Yushi has accepted the imperial edict, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that Lord Yushi was willing to be drenched in the rain after receiving the imperial edict, and couldn't kneel down for a long time." It seemed like he was protesting to someone.

Qingfeng didn't understand, the emperor clearly knew that Master Yushi only had the one in the west of the city in his heart, but he still gave him the marriage, so he couldn't help but say something more,

"Your Majesty, a twisted melon is not sweet."

Qi You ignored Qingfeng, he didn't care if the melon was sweet or not, he was happy when he twisted it off.
