Dali Temple Small Dining Room

  Chapter 87 Mung bean cake (3)

  There is nothing wrong with traveling in the mountains and rivers, but it is unreasonable to choose a remote trail with no scenery to play.

Lin Fei took out a booklet from his bosom, pointed to the red seal on the lower right corner of the cover of the booklet, and said: "Yesterday, someone set fire to the storeroom of the Jingzhao Mansion Guardhouse, and the files in the storehouse Most of them were burned. However, the laws of nature are clear, and they are not leaked. Even though more than half of the warehouse files were burned, this file that should be burned the most remained."

  Looking at the pale faces of Li Zhao and the others, Lin Fei said, "You guys say, is this something that has its own number of days?"

   It was the evidence found in the warehouse of the Jingzhao Prefecture Guardhouse! Zhao Mengzhuo was stunned, and his face was full of shame: last night, he was the minister of Dali Temple, not to mention how soundly he slept, and he didn't know so many things happened in the city.

   It turned out that apart from someone in the city chasing and killing his Dali Temple officials, the Jingzhao Mansion Guardhouse outside the city was also on fire.

  Zhao Mengzhuo stretched his neck and looked at the booklet in Lin Fei's hand, but before he could see clearly what was written in the booklet, Lin Fei closed the booklet in his hand and began to speak.

"As a citizen of Great Glory, a member of the Li clan, rich and powerful, you can get everything at your fingertips, but colluding with those Japanese rogues pretending to be rogues, are you so greedy in Huaishan Prince's Mansion?" Lin Fei looked at Li Zhao Waiting for someone, said.

The king of Huaishan County, who was asked, turned pale, reached out and patted Li Zhao on the shoulder who stood up, walked to the front of the family, and said, "Really speaking of this matter, I am also the victim!" Said With a wry smile, "I don't have a choice about where I came from!"

   This aggrieved look made Liu Yuan feel disgusted. If Lin Fei hadn't been standing in front of him and was asking questions, he couldn't help but speak out.

  No choice in origin? With the surname "Li", his Huaishan county king's family was born as a clan, and they can enjoy all the wealth and honor in the world without making contributions.

  Is it aggrieved to have such a background without a choice? If this background should be called grievance, what are Hu Chengzu, Ma Sanci, Fuzi and others?

  Lin Fei didn't sneer, but looked at the Huaishan County King in front of him, paused for a moment, and asked again: "Why did the old County King come here?"

  Hearing Lin Fei's question, the last trace of luck in Huaishan County King's heart was completely shattered, and he said sadly: "My father...he refuses to accept it!"

  Since ancient times, the royal family has been fighting for power, and brotherhood is not a joke. In the end, there is never only one person who can take that seat.

  As soon as these words came out, it reminded Zhao Mengzhuo and others: the first emperor did not ascend the throne as a prince. The first emperor Jing had no children, and finally the first emperor was selected from among the descendants of the clan to inherit the Datong.

   As for Emperor Xian... To be honest, his abilities and talents are mediocre. Apart from being the number one in the number of concubines in the harem, compared with the previous majesties, he is really inferior.

   At that time, he was also a child of the clan, and the old Huaishan County King was indeed far superior to the former emperor in terms of ability and virtue.

   Zhao Mengzhuo put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If he were the old king of Huaishan County, he would really be a little dissatisfied.

   It is understandable to be dissatisfied, but it is incomprehensible to collude with the Japanese because of dissatisfaction.

  But twenty-five years ago, the first emperor had ascended the throne, and the old king of Huaishan County had passed away at that time. Why did his family take the risk to find the Japanese?

"My father was one step short back then, and he hoped to use the hands of the Japanese to eradicate the late emperor before he ascended the throne." Huaishan County King said with a wry smile, "The late emperor escaped by accident, but it was my father who, by accident, Occasionally, I felt the wind and cold, but I couldn't get sick because of it, so I left soon."

  Originally, this was just a matter that rotted in the stomach of Huaishan County King's family. I thought that the old Huaishan County King would take this matter away, but I didn't expect...

"The Japanese held a letter in which my father cooperated with them in murdering the late emperor. Twenty-five years ago, the late emperor had just ascended the throne, so they found my family through the letter." Huaishan County King said, "So, my family had to Take a trip to Salt Lake City."

  In just a few words, I have already outlined the whole story of what happened back then.

  The Huaishan county king's family is not stupid, they obviously know that such a matter must be resolved in a timely manner. Therefore, when they went to Salt Lake City, their goal was to eradicate the bandits pretending to be Japanese.

   This also clarifies why the Huaishan County King’s family did not inform the local officials of their identities at that time. They must have known that there was something wrong with those officials.

  In the plan of Huaishan County King's family, they also arranged for "those who escaped" early to notify the people in time and attract the army to suppress the rogues.

  What happened back then, after unraveling the truth, is actually not complicated at all.

   What the Huaishan County King wanted to hide was the fact that the old Huaishan County King colluded with the Japanese and attempted to murder the late emperor. Once this matter is exposed, not to mention being demoted to the ranks of the common people, his family may not have enough heads to be chopped off.

"Your family has planned everything, and you knew that the Japanese would take you away, so you asked your subordinates to replace you and be taken hostage by the Japanese." Lin Fei said, paused, and suddenly looked at the people in front of him. The youngest of Huaishan County Wang's family. Whether it is the old servant Song Guanshi who has served loyally for many years, or the group of dead men who fought hard to resist last night, the Huaishan Duke family has never shown any sadness before what happened to these people. It was not until the moment the truth was revealed 25 years ago that his family began to mourn.

  Looking at the Huaishan County King in front of him, Lin Fei couldn't help frowning, "How much genuine concern does your family have for those who died for you?"

  The gentle expression on Huaishan County King's face has long since disappeared, and his calm face looked a little inexplicably gloomy at this moment. He said lightly: "My father said that the easiest people to win over are the little people."

   A casual word of concern can make him be grateful and sacrifice his own son to replace his son.

  Hearing this, Zhao Mengzhuo at the side suddenly felt that there was some reason for the previous Emperor Jing not to choose the old Huaishan County King with outstanding ability and virtue. If such a person sits on the throne of God... that is not a blessing for the common people!

   "Since you have prepared everything before you go to Salt Lake City, why is there no one to replace your mother?" Zhao Mengzhuo couldn't help asking.

   "I think... It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't." Lin Fei said.

  A person who can calmly say things like "little people are always the easiest to win over", how can he let go of an old servant who can replace the old lady for no reason?

  The king of Huaishan County nodded and confirmed his words: "They have seen my mother and cannot replace her."

  Originally, all of this would be completely buried in the bloodshed of Salt Lake City following the suppression of the army back then, but it didn’t happen…

   "When the barracks came to suppress people, a small army sneaked into the city first and witnessed my mother discussing with the Japanese." Huaishan County King said.

  The general who was originally intended to completely solve the hidden danger has become their biggest hidden danger at this time.
