Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1574

Qiufu.

Lined up with white flags fluttering slowly with the morning breeze, the sound of chime music in the mansion, lingering incense candles, and bursts of weeping can be heard from time to time.

Li Yuanjing, king of Jing, was in front, and Xue Wanche, the great general of Youwuwei, came to the Qiu Mansion to express his condolences.

Li Yuanjing, who was usually dressed in brocade clothes, wore a plain scribe silk shirt today, greeted each other with Qiu Xinggong who came to welcome the guests, and then held Qiu Xinggong's hand with a sad face, and said warmly: "People have life and death, brother Qiu mourns. "

Qiu Xinggong's face was wrinkled, he sighed and remained silent.

Xue Wanche stared at the bull's eye and said loudly: "Your Majesty's words are wrong! As generals, we pay attention to grievances and grievances in horse leather shrouds. If there is revenge, there is resentment and resentment. Is it possible that my son has to be a turtle when he dies? No matter who the murderer of nephew Shenji is, as long as you, brother Qiu, yell, a certain Xue Wanche will follow you with a knife in hand, and I will seek justice for you!"

"Wan Che, be careful!"

Li Yuanjing hurriedly grabbed Xue Wanche, fearing that he would continue to speak out, and complained: "There are so many people here, how can they talk nonsense? If Fang Jun and the others make any mistakes, wouldn't they all be suspected of General Qiu ?”

The implication is that Qiu Shenji was already determined to be killed by Fang Jun...

Qiu Xinggong looked gloomy and remained silent, but bowed slightly, and asked Li Yuanjing and others to go to the mourning hall to express his condolences.

In the mourning hall, incense candles are lingering, and the atmosphere is overwhelming.

Li Yuanjing endured the tiredness in his heart, burned a stick of incense, and pushed out the door.

As the head of the family, Qiu Xinggong naturally couldn't let Li Yuanjing leave after offering incense, so he invited him to the side hall and ordered someone to serve tea and entertain him.

Li Yuanjing took a sip of tea, looked up at Qiu Xinggong, and asked, "What is General Qiu's plan?"

Qiu Xinggong said dumbly: "Your Majesty has decreed that the case should be heard by the Sanju Judiciary. I think the real culprit will be found out in a few days, and I will take revenge on my son."

Li Yuanjing smiled inwardly.

This is... a lie.

The murderer was able to kill Qiu Shenji in Xijindu without anyone noticing. If he could be found out, the criminal department would have found out when they rushed to the scene immediately after the crime.At that time, the identity of the real culprit was not found out. Now that things have changed, how can we find out?
If the real culprit is Fang Jun, the only explanation for hiding Qiu Shenji's body on the boat is an attempt to distract people's sight and fish in troubled waters. Today, people have a feeling of "why do I put someone on my own boat after I killed someone?" Own.

If the real culprit wasn't Fang Jun, who could hide the body on the navy ship after killing Qiu Shenji... Such a person simply has the power to reach the heavens and the earth, how can we investigate?

In fact, everyone now understands that there is only one ending that can be found out, and that is to clear Fang Jun of the suspicion...

Xue Wanche looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he leaned forward and moved closer to Qiu Xinggong's side, with a ferocious expression on his face, he said, "Brother Qiu, can't you see clearly? The backer behind Fang Jun is as good as the sky. If there is no real evidence, who would dare to say for sure?" The crime? That bastard looks like a stick, but he is actually extremely cunning and treacherous. How could he leave a clue for what he did? So the Sanfa Division is just putting on a show. If Brother Qiu wants revenge, he can only mobilize people secretly... ..."

Having said that, he severed his left hand and made a "kill" gesture.

In fact, what he said was true, whether it was Fang Xuanling's influence, or the emperor's favor for Fang Jun, or even the power Fang Jun himself controlled, in the end it could only end like this...

Li Yuanjing sighed, with a troubled look on his face, he struggled a bit, and said: "Although the relationship between my king and General Qiu is still shallow, I have always admired the general's upright, brave and brave style, so I have attracted him as a confidant. If General Qiu really wants to be a god Nephew Ji Xian takes revenge... This king will give up this title, and he will also contact the righteous members of the royal family to seek His Majesty's forgiveness for the general! The day is clear, if the murderer is allowed to go unpunished, and the morality of the court is demoralized, our hearts will be broken. How can people with righteous spirits sleep peacefully? Only by eradicating these evil people can we stand up and be ashamed!"

Xue Wanche nodded fiercely: "That's exactly the reason!"

The two sang together, but Qiu Xinggong kept his eyebrows drooping, indifferent.

Seeing that Qiu Xinggong didn't speak, Li Yuanjing patted Qiu Xinggong's shoulder and said softly: "This king is not greedy for something, but I just can't bear to see General Qiu come and lose his son and refuse, but the real culprit is still at large and lawless." ...In short, no matter what General Qiu does, I will stand behind you and fully support you."

There was a look of grief on his face, which seemed to be sincere.

Xue Wanche slapped the coffee table fiercely, glared at Qiu Xinggong, and said: "Brother Qiu used to kill and eat people's hearts and livers, and he never frowned. Why is he getting old, but even the bloody courage of the year has withered away?" ? The revenge of killing a son is irreconcilable, and you can even bear this?"

Qiu Xinggong gritted his teeth, the muscles on his cheeks squirmed, but he still sat peacefully like a mountain, not speaking.

Li Yuanjing glanced at Qiu Xinggong, and reprimanded Xue Wanche severely: "Wanche, shut up! How many times has General Qiu waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood? In fact, you are such a cowardly and cowardly person? No more nonsense like this Mention, quickly apologize to General Qiu!"

Xue Wanche snorted, kept silent, and looked contemptuous.

Li Yuanjing was a little embarrassed, and said: "This person has always had such a sticky temper. If he offended him, I will apologize to him. General Qiu, don't blame him..."

Seeing Qiu Xinggong still not saying a word, he could only get up and said: "Then I will take my leave first, and I will have a free time in the future, and I am talking with General Qiu."

Qiu Xinggong also got up and saluted, "Family respects filial piety, so forgive me for not being able to send you far away."

"It's okay, it's okay, stay, stay."

After sending the two of them away, Qiu Xinggong turned around and went back to the side hall to sit quietly, thinking carefully about Li Yuanjing's words.

He is not stupid, how could he fail to see Li Yuanjing's strategy of instigation?
But these are not the main points, what he thinks is if he really kills Fang Jun brazenly, whether Li Yuanjing can unite with members of the royal family to stand up and support him as he said now...

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't think of a clue.

Qiu Xinggong got up, pushed open a door on the side hall, and walked in.

This is a small room with a small area. According to the direction, it is just behind the mourning hall, separated by a wall.

There was no window in the room, and the light was dim. A candle was lit near the corner of the wall. A person was thrown on the ground like a rice dumpling, and two strong men in black were guarding one on the left and the other on the right.

Seeing Qiu Xinggong come in, two strong men in black knelt down on one knee and said, "I've seen you, Commander!"

Qiu Xinggong gave a "hmm" and took two steps forward with his hands behind his back. Then, in the light of the candlelight, he bent down and looked at the "zongzi" on the ground...

"woooooo"

"Zongzi" was not only tied tightly with his hands and feet, but also stuffed a piece of rag into his mouth. Seeing Qiu Xinggong's appearance clearly, he quickly twisted and shouted, struggling desperately, but he could only squirm like a maggot, with a spitting sound coming out of his mouth. The sound of woo woo woo.

Qiu Xinggong waved his hand, and a strong man in black came over and took off the rag from Zongzi's mouth.

"Uncle forgive me... ah!"

As soon as his mouth was loose, "Zongzi" begged for mercy, but was kicked by Qiu Xinggong on the mouth, and suddenly he groaned, swallowing all the words back into his throat, and then opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood with a "poof". With a mouthful of teeth...

"Don't dare to yell loudly, believe it or not, I peeled your skin and cramped your tendons?"

Qiu Xinggong said something darkly.

"I, I, I... dare not..."

"Zongzi" groaned, curled up in fright, and kept wriggling backwards, as if wanting to stay away from Qiu Xinggong. The devil in front of him has eaten people's hearts, what can't he do?

Qiu Xinggong stared at "Zongzi" and said slowly: "Zhou Xing, you and Shenji are brothers and sisters, and Shenji has always treated you kindly. Now that he has been wronged and died tragically, don't you want to take revenge for it?"

"I...I would like to..."

Zhou Xing had been tortured until he lost his human form, his teeth were all gone, his eyes were lax and trembling, and he said intermittently: "Shen Ji treats me well, am I a ruthless person? If I can avenge Shen Ji , even if it costs me my life, I will never hesitate!"

No matter what you think in your heart that the Qiu family will die as soon as possible, you still have to say something nice, otherwise the devil in front of you will really be able to skin him and cramp him in a fit of anger, and then feed all the bits and pieces to the dogs... …

Qiu Xinggong nodded slowly, and asked: "I don't need you to avenge Shenji, you just need to tell me honestly, how did you know that Shenji's body was on the navy's boat?"

Zhou Xing hurriedly said: "The junior has already said that someone threw a letter to the junior's house at night, saying that the corpse of Shenji was on the navy ship, and the junior also gave the letter to my uncle. There is absolutely no falsehood in this statement, woo, uncle For the sake of this junior's friendship with Shenji, please forgive me..."

He's completely remorseful now.

If I had known that the water here is so deep, I would have stayed far away, so why bother to bring myself in just to please Qiu Xinggong for a few rewards?
