Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 483 I Will Not Betray Her
This night, the two were lingering like crazy.

Feng Jin was obviously very tired, but he still refused to let go of Wuming, and tried his best to pester him.

Wuming hugged her tightly in silence, sinking and going crazy together with her, only wishing that time would go slower and dawn would come later.

However, time will never stop for anyone. Finally, after the night passed, the first rays of light shone in through the window screen, and fell on Feng Jin's crystal clear and delicate skin, with a little bit of moving luster, and the sweat beads on the skin shimmering.

On Wuming's indistinctly strong chest, there were a few beads of sweat, flowing on the strong and distinct texture, forming thin waterlines. Wuming hugged Feng Jin in his arms, and kissed her sweaty hair , "A Jin, I should go."

Feng Jin snuggled into his arms, without saying a word for a long time, Wuming hugged her in silence, the room was silent.

The palace people already knew the news, it was quiet outside, they even walked more carefully than usual, for fear of disturbing the empress and the emperor.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Jin finally raised her head and smiled at Wuming with a gentle and calm smile, "Go ahead, be careful all the way."

When Wuming got dressed, Feng Jin called softly, "Fu Yu, go ask Aunt Zhong to bring Yao'er here."

The thoughtful Aunt Zhong had been waiting for a long time, and carried Yao'er into the house.

Maybe because she knew her father was going to leave, Yao'er woke up very early today, staring at Wuming with her round eyes, babbling words that no one understood.

Wuming took Yao'er from Aunt Zhong's arms, and lovingly kissed his immature and beautiful cheeks, Yao'er suddenly stretched out her hand, tightly grasping Wuming's fingers, as if telling him not to leave.

"Yao'er should obediently listen to mother's words and wait for daddy to come back. During the days when daddy is away, Yao'er should be obedient and don't let mother worry about it. Instead of daddy, she should stay with mother and make mother happy."

Yao'er shook his fingers and babbled, as if agreeing to Wuming's words.

Wuming's eyes were slightly red, and he kissed Yao'er's cheek, hair, forehead, and little hands with nostalgia.

Yao'er's [-]-day ceremony is one month away, and he might not be able to make it back.

As for the wedding between him and Ah Jin, after half a month, he will not be able to come back. This time, the Ministry of Rites suggested that the wedding should be postponed until the matter of King Jiangdong is resolved before re-negotiating a better date. He and Ah Jin agreed up.

In times of war, what can we do if we don't agree?The war cannot be delayed because of the marriage of the two.

Besides, he wanted to give Ah Jin a grand and grand wedding that the whole country celebrated together. During times of war, people were panicked, so even if they held a wedding, they had to keep everything simple, and worrying about state affairs would compromise their joy.

The sky was already fully lit, the sun was rising, and the golden-red sunlight fell on the floor. It was golden and very beautiful. Feng Jin came over to pick up Yao'er, and smiled slightly at Wuming, "Go, go early and return early."

Wuming hugged her vigorously, "Ajin, wait for me to come back!"

"Okay! I will wait here for your return. I will guard the imperial capital and your rear so that you can go to the battlefield without any worries!"

Feng Jin said softly but firmly, with a firm look on her face. Now she is firmer, calmer and calmer than she was when Yu Jia personally conquered her. She not only wants to protect the country and the people of the world, but also protects her well. husband, her child.

She will stay in the imperial capital like a sea god needle, stabilize people's hearts, maintain the court situation, and wait for her man to return in triumph.

Wuming's eyes were flushed, he suddenly held Feng Jin's face, and kissed her lips fiercely, after a deep and forceful kiss, he immediately let go and left without looking back, afraid that if there was a slight pause, he would never be able to bear it leave.

Feng Jin did not look at his back unblinkingly like every time he left before, until his figure disappeared behind many palace gates, but hugged Yao'er, and gently kissed Yao'er on the cheek.

It's not that they don't want him, they think about it when they leave, it's not that they don't want to keep him, but they know that there are more important things that need their protection.

No name is there, her fragility and helplessness must be put away, and she will use her weak shoulders to prop up a piece of sky for the people of the world and the child in her arms.

On the day Wuming left, the palace was very peaceful.

Wuming sends back letters from Feige every day, which are divided into two parts, one part is for her alone, which is all trivial things, and the other part is all kinds of intelligence and news. The army fought a few small battles. The army of Dazhou was transferred from the nearest military guard. There were only 1 people. They did not dare to confront Jiangdong's [-] troops head-on. The pace of the Jiangdong army.

On the tenth day, Wuming came back with the most definite news that Qi Che was still alive and was in the hands of King Jiangdong, who was trying his best to persuade him to surrender. Qi Che was young and promising, brave and good at fighting, and had a strategy. If King Jiangdong got him , which is equivalent to winning a fierce general.

First, the beauties in gold and silver took turns to fight, but Qi Che refused, and then they were tortured. In less than ten days, Qi Che had been tortured beyond recognition.

This news was given to Feng Jin privately by Wuming. Feng Jin hesitated for a long time, but finally did not tell others, especially Qi Heng.

No. On the 15th, Qi Che was already on the verge of death, and his life was hanging by a thread. Feng Jin thought for a while, and sent a message to Wuming, giving an order.

This command was in Wuming's hands, and Wuming looked at the three simple and clear words: Kill Qi Che, a pair of thick black eyebrows tightened, what does Ah Jin mean?
Could it be that Qi Che knew too many military secrets, and Ajin was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the torture of King Jiangdong, and wanted to kill him to silence him?
Wuming thought for a while, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he finally understood Ajin's intentions.

He has already found out where Qi Che is being held, and he can rescue Qi Che at any time. A small captain of the secret guard came without a name, and ordered in a low voice, "Take a few people to the Jiangdong Palace tonight..."

At this very moment, in an extremely secret dungeon in the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion, the Jiangdong King was trying to persuade him to surrender and was beaten to pieces. Qi Che, who couldn't distinguish between humans and ghosts, said, "Qi Che, think about it, what can you gain by following the Queen? The Queen With the emperor and Li Yi in your hand, even if you trust you, can you go past them? But it’s different if you follow this king. You are the founding general and the founding father. Tiger Talisman! I will give you the title of King and Marquis again!"

Qi Che spat out a mouthful of blood, spat it on Jiangdong Wang's face, and growled, "You're dreaming! I will never betray Her Majesty the Empress!"

The lieutenant next to him immediately lashed Qi Che's back with a whip, drawing out a bloodstain, the flesh and blood rolled up. Seeing it was shocking, the lieutenant cursed while whipping, "What the hell? How shameless you are? This is our prince. Wait for the prince! What are you, dare to spit on our prince?"

King Jiangdong waved his hands, pretending to be a good old man, and said with a smile, "Young people are just full of vigor, it's nothing, there is no need to use punishment, General Qi is a brave general, if he is wounded and disabled, that's fine." That would be such a pity."

Qi Che sneered, and turned his face away impatiently, as if he couldn't see the hypocrisy of King Jiangdong.

A cold light flashed in King Jiangdong's eyes, he slowly wiped off the blood and saliva on his face, and continued, "Don't think that this king is nagging, this king also cherishes talents. Qi Che, think about it, empress She is a woman who cares about every detail, always pays back every grievance, and has a very small mind. She doesn't trust anyone, so she trusts her man. Do you think how many people she killed? Zhong Mo made great achievements in driving away the Huns back then. Killed all of Zhong's family, and King Zhongshan, that's her own uncle, kill as soon as you say."

"Zhong Mo raised an army to rebel, His Majesty left his whole body, it's already very powerful! And Zhongshan King, who took too much happy medicine, died immediately, what's the matter with His Majesty? Don't slander Your Majesty!"

Qi Che said loudly, and King Jiangdong sneered, "Qi Che, you know how to fight, but you just don't understand imperial power struggles! After Zhong Mo fell, it is a fact that King Zhongshan neglected his concubine, and it is also a fact that he was a bit greedy, but he took too much medicine Immediate wind? Are you kidding me! This kind of unreasonable thing is to deceive an ignorant child like you, but you can't deceive me!"

Qi Che snorted heavily from his nose, making it clear that he didn't believe King Jiangdong's words.

King Jiangdong smiled with a good temper, "Don't believe it, I checked it out, and the beauty who appeared out of nowhere and caused King Zhongshan to die on horseback, and killed herself immediately afterward, came from the Shen family in the south of the Yangtze River. .”

Qi Che's face changed slightly, Jiangdong Wang saw his change of expression, and continued, "It seems that you also know who the Shen family obeys, tell me, this beauty from the Shen family appeared in Zhongshan King's backyard , what is the purpose?"

Qi Che's eyes were flickering, and finally he said coldly, "Do you have evidence? If you don't have evidence, don't talk nonsense!"

"Although there is no direct evidence to prove that the woman is really from the Shen family, do you know? Jiangnan beauties are a great weapon of the Jiangnan gentry. Do you know how many high-ranking officials and nobles have Jiangnan beauties in their backyards and private houses? How many ministers are there? Every move is seen by these beauties? All these news have been in the hands of Shen Wenqing, and then Shen Wenqing will select the most important ones and present them to Her Majesty the Empress. Shen Wenqing is the eyes of the empress! You may not be able to tell the Qi family In my backyard, there is also such a pair of eyes that are as gentle as water, full of affection, and make people unable to help themselves."

Qi Che's expression kept changing, and finally he said coldly, "Her Majesty is in that position, and she has to do some things as a last resort. If there is no ghost in her heart, why should she be afraid of this?"

"That's really nice! Are you willing to be stared at like this? This shows that the empress doesn't trust your Qi family at all, and she doesn't trust your grandfather. But you are still working hard for her, loyal, and don't feel uncomfortable ?"

Qi Che's face was a little ugly, he avoided Jiangdong Wang's staring eyes at him, and said in a low voice, "This is all your one-sided words, I don't believe you!"

"Believe it or not, anyway, Zhong Mo is dead, King Zhongshan is dead, next, King Xicheng, King Qing'an, and this king will all die! The empress is ruthless, and when all these unsightly people are dead, the power will be in her hands , your Qi family, especially your grandfather will not live long."

"As long as the Qi family is upright and loyal, His Majesty will not touch the Qi family!"

"It's so naive! How embarrassing is it that the queen was trapped in the harem and became Pei Xiu's puppet? At that time, all the ministers, including your grandfather, stood by and watched. Do you think this woman doesn't remember it? And, even if she doesn't Think for yourself, but also for her son, these old ministers are all old foxes, and they are too old to be used anymore, she has to pick a group of young and capable ones for her son."

Jiangdong Wang said, the corners of his thin lips raised slightly, showing a smile that was not a smile, "You Qi family knows too much about her, do you understand?"

Qi Che remained silent, Jiangdong Wang smiled inscrutablely, got up and left.

After leaving the door of the dungeon, the deputy general came over and said in a low voice, "My lord, if this Qi Che refuses to obey, what should I do?"

Jiangdong Wang smiled coldly, "Didn't you see it? He has been shaken, and he will give in in five days at most."

The lieutenant gave a thumbs up, "The lord is powerful, then Qi Che is just a brat, how can he beat the lord?"

"He is indeed talented in fighting. A natural general is rare. I don't have any generals who are capable of fighting. It's a pity that he is a fool who knows nothing about the battle for imperial power."

"Then... When he succumbs and spits out the secrets of the Great Zhou army, is the prince going to kill him?"

"kill?"

The expression on Jiangdong Wang's face was a bit strange. His unfathomable eyes swept over the lieutenant general, and said with a half-smile, "You will know when the time comes."

After walking a few steps, King Jiangdong stopped again, and warned, "Keep an eye on the dungeon, don't let anyone rescue Qi Che. I heard that the emperor hasn't been to court for more than ten days. It's the Empress."

"It's rare that he fell out of favor?"

The lieutenant general said with great interest, and Jiangdong Wang sneered, "Falling out of favor? Falling out of favor is unlikely, I'm afraid he has already sneaked into Jiangdong, trying every means to find out where Qi Che is being held."

"Jiangdong Palace is heavily guarded, he wants to save people from here? Dreaming!"

King Jiangdong was not as optimistic as the lieutenant general, "Send more people, and be careful."

The deputy general responded respectfully, and the two figures left one after the other.

The night was dark, midnight had passed, and it was already the middle of the night. When people reached the middle of the night, it was the most sleepy time, and the prison guard who guarded the dungeon had already started to yawn.

A few black shadows sneaked into the dungeon without a sound, and the gleaming dagger touched the necks of the prison bosses and jailers, and more than a dozen prison bosses and jailers fell one by one.

The black shadow sneaked towards Qi Che's cell like a snake. Qi Che was not asleep. When these people killed the cell boss and the jailer, he already knew about it and didn't make a sound, observing secretly.

The black shadow stopped at the door of Qi Che's cell, and the leader called out in a low voice, "General Qi."

Qi Che immediately opened his eyes, looked at the clothes of these people, and looked familiar, "Who are you?"

"General Qi, we were sent by Her Majesty the Queen to rescue you, and we are the hidden guards."

The leader of the dark guard cut off the lock of the cell door with a sword, and the two dark guards entered the cell door, helping Qi Che to stand up.

"Your Majesty really sent you to rescue me?"

Qi Che still couldn't believe it, the leader of the dark guards nodded and said, "Yes, Dijun has arrived in Jiangdong. He just found out your whereabouts and immediately sent us to rescue you. Dijun told his subordinates to tell the general that he will definitely rescue the general. The gentian silver gun lost by the general has been found, but the barrel of the gun is bent a little, and the emperor has replaced it with a new one for the general. Although it was not given by Her Majesty the Queen, it is also extremely valuable. I hope the general will not dislike it."

The leader of the dark guard took a deep look at Qi Che, his eyes sparkled, Qi Che's heart moved, and he answered carefully, "The emperor has a heart, and I won't dislike it."

After the leader finished speaking, he stopped talking and asked Qi Che to help him go outside. The journey was extremely smooth. Everyone showed ecstatic expressions on their faces, but Qi Che was very disturbed in his heart.

He didn't know where this was, but King Jiangdong's dungeon wouldn't be so easy to get in and out of.

"Where is this?"

The leader of the dark guard replied, "This is the dungeon of the Jiangdong Palace, and the Jiangdong King hid you in the Jiangdong Palace."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Qi Che's mind, and he grabbed the leader's hand suddenly, "This must be a fraud! Jiangdong Palace's defenses cannot be so lax!"

The leader smiled, said nothing, and continued to walk out. Qi Che didn't understand, so he held his hand again, "Didn't you understand? There must be deceit here!"

"Don't worry, the general. Jiangdong Palace is just like that. It's not a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. It's not that scary."

There was a light in the leader's eyes that Qi Che couldn't understand, and Qi Che couldn't help frowning. The Queen's hidden guards are the most cautious, it is impossible to underestimate the enemy so much!
The leader stopped talking to him and continued to lead him out.

A group of people went out of the dungeon smoothly. As soon as they walked out of the gate of the dungeon, they saw densely packed people standing in the courtyard. King Jiangdong stood at the front, and there were archers on the wall, with sharp arrow feathers aimed at the hidden guards. Che's heart sank, sure enough!
He looked at the leader of the dark guard, but saw that the other party was very calm, as if he had expected it, and Qi Che was even more confused.

"Everyone opens the way for me and General Qi, I want to take General Qi away!"

When the leader gave an order, the ten hidden guards he brought rushed up immediately, but how could King Jiangdong let them go.

In the courtyard, swords, swords and arrows rained down like rain. Soon, the hidden guards fell down one by one.

The leader led Qi Che desperately trying to break out of the encirclement, but was blocked again and again. When all the hidden guards fell down, the leader showed a hint of ruthlessness on his face, and he stabbed with his sword, but not at the enemy, but at the enemy. To Qi Che's chest.

Qi Che was stunned, unable to dodge in time, he fixedly stared at the leader's eyes, which flashed with complicated and unspeakable light.

Just when the point of the sword pierced Qi Che's clothes and pierced the skin of his chest, when he was about to stab through with the sword, a sharp arrow shot through the leader's chest, the leader's body swayed, and he fell down little by little. She stared at Qi Che intently, as if she wanted to tell him something.

Qi Che stared straight at the dead leader, his face was pale, Jiang Dong Wang came over with an iron bow, "Are you okay?"

Qi Che was stunned for a long time before muttering, "Why did he kill me? Didn't he come to save me?"

"I knew I couldn't save him, so I killed him. Who told you to know too many military secrets and arrangements?"

Jiangdong Wang said calmly, Qi Che's thick eyebrows were tightened, "What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand? The purpose of these hidden guards is twofold. One is to save you, and the other is to kill you if the rescue fails. The empress is really ruthless."

Qi Che staggered back, his face full of disbelief, his eyes were absent-minded, he kept shaking his head, and muttered, "It can't be His Majesty, Your Majesty won't kill me, it must be someone else's own decision, it can't be Your Majesty, Your Majesty promoted me, praised me, trusted me, and even personally gave me the silver gun of gentian..."

Qi Che's heart shuddered, and the silver gun was shining on the gentian?
The leader said: "The gentian silver gun lost by the general has been found, but the gun barrel is bent a little. The emperor has replaced a new gun barrel for the general. Although it was not given by the queen, it is also very valuable. I hope the general Don't be disgusted."

The barrel of the gun was bent, and Dijun replaced it with a new one...

Not from Her Majesty the Queen...but it is also extremely valuable...

Got a new... new barrel?
A flash of inspiration flashed in Qi Che's mind, and a bold conjecture came up. Could it be that the barrel of the gun mentioned by the emperor did not refer to the barrel of the gun, but something else... such as a person?

Seeing that Qi Che was speechless, Jiangdong Wang patted him on the shoulder affectionately, "You still don't believe what you saw with your own eyes?"

Qi Che lowered his head, his face was pale, and he couldn't speak a word.

"Think about it for yourself, that woman has always been a ruthless character."

King Jiangdong said, and ordered the deputy general to take Qi Che back to the prison.

The night was dark, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air. Qi Che leaned against the dirty wall of the cell, his face was pale, his eyes were lifeless, it seemed that all the energy in his body had been drained, and he maintained a single posture throughout the night , motionless, did not speak a word.

When Jiang Dong Wang heard the news, he smiled all over his face. He said to the lieutenant general, "Feng Jin is a woman who is ruthless but has no brains. Just wait, Qi Che will give in after a few days."

The lieutenant general was puzzled, "My lord is so confident?"

"Qi Che is only in his early twenties, young and vigorous, and loyal to the empress. Do you know what foundation his loyalty is based on?"

"Please tell me more, my lord."

"This king has already found out that he likes that woman, and he almost entered the palace back then. Tell me, how uncomfortable was he when he was swayed by a woman he likes? The other side of love is hatred, Qi Che Too young and easily impulsive, especially when it comes to feelings, he can't tolerate such disappointment and scheming. Feng Jin was clever this time but was mistaken by her cleverness, and shot herself in the foot. If she didn't do this, Qi Che It might survive.”

King Jiangdong laughed and seemed to be in a very good mood as he spoke, and the lieutenant boasted, "This is God's help for the prince! The prince's action this time must be a success in one fell swoop! The dragon chair in the Imperial Palace is waiting for the prince to sit on it."

King Jiangdong laughed loudly, "This is my king's dragon chair. It has been sat on by a yellow-haired girl for so many years, so I should return it."

The story of the failure to save lives quickly reached Wuming's ears. Wuming was writing a letter to Feng Jin. Hearing this, the pen in his hand paused slightly, leaving a big ball of ink, "How many people were lost?"

"It's all discounted."

Wuming was silent, "Find their corpses and bury them properly."

"I'm afraid it can't be done. Jiangdong King threw the corpses of the hidden guards to the mastiff dogs. There are no bones left."

Wuming was silent for a long time before softly saying, "I understand, let's back down."

The hidden guard did not back down, but asked hesitantly, "Dijun, will Qi Che rebel?"
