Jin Yi Kill - Chapter 131

Now, she is only willing to call him the Marquis of Zhenyuan from a distance. Fu Tingzhou looked at Wang Yanqing and Lu Heng again, still frowning and said, “Naughty, there are serious criminals in the imperial court here, do you know how dangerous it is?”

“I know.” This time it was Wang Yanqing who answered the call. She clasped her hands, stood quietly, and said, “It’s a little damp here, I’m not comfortable staying here. Can you start soon?”

The two men were dumbfounded together. Fu Tingzhou heard that she was uncomfortable, and was about to say to send her out, but Lu Heng suddenly opened his mouth and forcibly suppressed Fu Tingzhou’s words: “Bring the brazier to ward off the cold for Madam.”

Mrs. Lu Heng’s words were like an invisible thorn, which made Fu Tingzhou’s heart throb, and the rest of the words could no longer be uttered. In what name does he **** her now? She already has a husband, and he is also marrying a new person. If it is reasonable, Fu Tingzhou should avoid suspicion.

Fu Tingzhou was silent, and Lu Heng took the opportunity to change the arrangement of the dungeon. Immediately after moving the brazier, the dungeon became much brighter, and the lingering moisture seemed to subside. Wang Yanqing had no intention of wasting time with these two men, and asked directly, “Where is Wu Sheng’s cell?”

Lu Heng pointed to the innermost room, Wang Yanqing walked over without waiting for anyone to accompany him. Lu Heng quickly caught up, and Fu Tingzhou couldn’t help but follow.

Fu Tingzhou’s face was as cold as ice, and he asked Lu Heng in a low voice, “How did you act like a husband to let her come to such a place?”

I don’t know where this sentence hit Lu Heng, but he also endured his anger and replied coldly: “Marquis Zhenyuan, I will remind you again, I have the final say on how to interrogate. I am her husband, of course I am. Get to know her.”

Lu Heng’s words seemed to contain a lot of information that he didn’t know. Fu Tingzhou was surprised that Lu Heng had already surpassed him and quickly chased after Wang Yanqing. Fu Tingzhou made up his mind and decided to stay put for the time being and follow him first.

After Wang Yanqing entered the cell, as soon as he looked up, he saw a filthy man with chains on his hands and feet, tattered clothes, and dark brown blood condensed in some places.

Fu Tingzhou came in at the back, and he frowned constantly when he saw Wu Sheng’s appearance. He often goes in and out of the cell, and has long been accustomed to this scene, and even Wu Sheng will become like this, which has nothing to do with him. However, how could Wang Yanqing see such a **** and dirty scene?

She should wear brocade clothes, burn incense and read books in a warm room. She only sees spring flowers and autumn moon, poems and songs in her eyes, and she will never see the darkness of this world in her life.

Instead of appearing in a cold dungeon. Ordinary men will feel uncomfortable when they see the prison scene, so women’s relatives can’t have nightmares?

Fu Tingzhou was about to have someone move a screen to block the blood, but Wang Yanqing had already lifted the fence and looked at the scene calmly. The **** smell in the cell couldn’t be dissipated, but she didn’t even frown.

She put away the curtain and handed it to the side naturally. Lu Heng took it calmly, helping Wang Yanqing to hold things like a sidekick, and stood quietly beside him.

Fu Tingzhou glanced at Lu Heng from the corner of his eyes, not sure what water got in his mind. Wang Yanqing walked towards Wu Sheng and said hello politely: “Wu Da is in charge, I have long admired him.”

Wu Sheng lifted his eyelids and glanced at Wang Yanqing, still leaning against the wall listlessly, ignoring a woman at all. Wang Yanqing said to the jailer next to him, “I’m talking to the head of Wu, how can I let the guests wear chains? Open the lock on the head of the head.”

The jailer was surprised and looked at the door reflexively. Lu Heng nodded slightly, but Fu Tingzhou didn’t move. The jailer had no choice but to try to open the lock on Wu Sheng’s hand, but he still did not dare to loosen his anklet.

“Let go.” Wang Yanqing said, “Master Wu is suffering from gout. Even without the anklet, he can’t walk.”

Everyone in the cell was shocked. Wu Sheng suddenly raised his head and stared at her fiercely: “You investigate me?”

“No matter how powerful Jinyiwei is, he can’t detect people who are not in Daming’s territory.” Wang Yanqing smiled, “The pain on the face of the big boss is very obvious. No intelligence is needed, and you can see it with your eyes.”

The jailer has a subtle expression on his face, isn’t it? Why didn’t they see it?

Fu Tingzhou has not let go of his brows since he came in. He looked at Lu Heng, not knowing what tricks they were playing. Lu Heng shook his head invisibly, signaling everyone not to disturb him.

After Wu Sheng said that, he lowered his head again, as if you could say whatever you want. Many braziers were added outside the corridor, and the light in the cell was also much brighter. Wang Yanqing looked at Wu Sheng and said, “Master Wu has been on the sea for more than 20 years, and the time he stayed overseas may be longer than the time he stepped on the ground, but he is still angry because I said you are not from Ming Dynasty. ?”

When Wu Sheng originally saw them bring a woman over, he laughed at the poor skills of the imperial court. Could it be that they plan to use a beauty trick? But now, Wu Sheng knew why they sent this woman.

Demon girl, there is indeed some evil spirit in her body.

Wu Sheng’s face was still lowered, and he couldn’t see any fluctuations in his expression, but the twitching of his muscles and the direction of his lines all fell into Wang Yanqing’s eyes.

Wang Yanqing looked at him and said slowly, “Although the eldest master and the second master are brothers, their personalities are completely different.”

The flesh on Wu Sheng’s cheeks twitched quickly, his teeth stretched, and he was obviously patient. Wang Yanqing continued: “I have seen the second master once, and the second master speaks a good Japanese language. Even if he is a Japanese, no one will doubt it. The second master also seems to be closer to the things in the East, and he has no doubts about Daming. No emotion. But the big boss is the opposite. I’m really curious. The big boss raised his younger brother like a son, but watched him forget the words of his ancestors, forget his hometown, and even don’t recognize the blood on his body. What are you thinking about these?”

Wu Sheng finally couldn’t bear it anymore, raised his eyelids, and scolded: “Go away.”

“The big boss doesn’t want to listen, but I want to tell you, if you don’t stop the rebellion of the Japanese pirates and let them occupy the coast, in the future, there will be countless children who forget their ancestors like the second boss, and can’t wait to peel off their own skins and become others. Master, is this what you want to see?”

Wu Sheng snorted coldly and said, “What does it have to do with me? I’m just one of the countless people who have been cornered by the sea ban. I can only leave my hometown and earn some money to support myself. Those emperors killed their brothers and killed their fathers, but let the common people kill them. Being loyal, benevolent and filial to him, being loyal and filial to him, can it be eaten as a meal?”

It can be seen that Wu Sheng is very clear-headed and has a strong self-awareness. Wang Yanqing did not argue with him, but changed his direction: “What about those innocent old and young girls along the coast, what did they do wrong, and they want to be your money-maker? Sacrifice?”

Sure enough, after throwing this topic, Wu Sheng stopped talking. To deal with this kind of people who value the loyalty of the rivers and lakes the most, it is necessary to use the old and the weak to attack the heart. Wang Yanqing said: “Master, you may feel that you are worthy of brothers and friends in your life, but those old people and women who have no self-protection ability, but because of your loyalty, they will never have the opportunity to reunite with their families. Jintai Island has been defeated, You don’t have to be responsible for anyone anymore. During the water battle, a group of Japanese people took advantage of the chaos to escape by boat, where did they go?”

Wu Sheng did not answer with a tense face. Wang Yanqing stared at him carefully and said slowly, “Changguo County, Beiji, Nanji…”

Wang Yanqing stopped and said clearly: “It looks like they are going to Nanji. Will they bring rescuers?”

“Who are the people on Nanji Island, Japanese, Westerners, or pirates? What is his strength? Are there more people than you?”

Wu Sheng didn’t want to say it, but even if he didn’t say a word, the woman could read his heart accurately, which was extremely evil. In the end, Wu Sheng could only close his eyes and control himself to think about other things. As long as he doesn’t want to listen, there’s nothing this woman can do.

Wu Sheng forcibly blocked his ears, and Wang Yanqing really had no choice. This method is only suitable for attacking his unpreparedness. The more unexpected he is, the richer the information on his face. After a long time, the other party developed a defensive heart, and it was difficult for Wang Yanqing to obtain accurate information.

However, this information is enough. Wang Yanqing turned around, but before he could speak, Lu Heng had already stepped forward, carefully helped her to bring the curtains, and then held her hand to keep warm: “Is it cold?”

“A bit.”

“Then let’s go out.”

Lu Heng escorted Wang Yanqing out, and Fu Tingzhou followed. He didn’t say a word on the way, his brows were furrowed tightly, and he looked up from time to time, looking at Wang Yanqing’s back before he could say anything.

When he finally got out of the dungeon, Wang Yanqing came into contact with the sun and sighed comfortably.

She really didn’t like the gloomy and desperate environment underground, as if even the seams of her bones were entangled with death. Wang Yanqing wanted to go back to change clothes quickly, and asked across the curtain: “You have heard what you just said, don’t I need to repeat it again?”

Lu Heng said, “I’ve worked hard for you today, I’ll take you back.”

“Wait.” Fu Tingzhou suddenly called out and stopped them both. Fu Tingzhou looked complicated and asked, “How do you explain what happened just now?”

Lu Heng turned back and glanced at him coolly: “Why should I explain to you about my wife?”

Lu Heng’s tone was not good, but Fu Tingzhou was not pushed back by Lu Heng’s stab, but asked aggressively, “She can read words and expressions, so that she can understand the prisoner’s thoughts without speaking?”

After all, he was his younger sister who had been with him for ten years. Fu Tingzhou knew that Wang Yanqing was very considerate, and sometimes he had a close relationship with him, and they could reach a tacit understanding without saying clearly. Today he watched her interrogate Wu Zhang with ease, and the gentleness and gentleness forced the pirate head across the sea to collapse, and Fu Tingzhou suddenly realized that perhaps, it was not that she and he had a good relationship, but that she could understand his thoughts and deliberately Follow him.

Fu Tingzhou suddenly shuddered when he thought of the past ten years. Has she been catering to him? That Chen family and Hou’s servants were ostracizing her, and she had been watching it all the time?

She has been in the Fu family for ten years, has she really never been happy?

Fu Tingzhou stared at her scorchingly, looking through the curtain wall and looking into her eyes persistently. Wang Yanqing did not answer through the layers of white gauze. Lu Heng was angry, he grabbed Wang Yanqing’s wrist, pulled her behind him, and blocked Fu Tingzhou in an absolutely possessive posture: “Marquis Zhenyuan, this is my wife, you have no right to question her.”

Lu Heng stood in front, and Fu Tingzhou could only see her white gauze fluttering in the wind. Fu Tingzhou especially wanted to hold Wang Yanqing, lift her veil, and ask to understand, but he knew he couldn’t, she was married and was no longer his sister.

Fu Tingzhou could only endure the bleeding heart, and tried his best to show an emotionless attitude: “This is a battlefield, and any operation involves the lives of tens of thousands of people. It can’t be a joke. I have to determine whether the information is right or wrong.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yanqing chuckled, “Believe it or not.”

After she finished speaking, she ignored the two men, turned around and left.

The breeze blew, and the white gauze undulated with the wind, like a misty soft mist in the sun. Lu Heng and Fu Tingzhou both followed the white fence, but neither one moved.

After Wang Yanqing stepped out of the speaking range, Fu Tingzhou asked, “If you had divine help in solving the case a few times before, did you rely on her to force him to find out the truth?”

After hearing this, Lu Heng chuckled: “Marquis Zhenyuan himself is a waste, don’t think that everyone else is the same as you. I, Lu Heng, live in the world and never need external force.”

Lu Heng would probably be uncomfortable talking to him. He would step on Fu Tingzhou even to boast, insinuating that he used his marriage to help his career. Fu Tingzhou didn’t want to entangle this topic with Lu Heng anymore, he asked coldly, “Then dare you say that you didn’t use her to achieve your goals?”

“I explained it clearly to her in advance, and she is willing to participate after listening, why not?” Lu Heng said, “Our husband and wife are like-minded and have the same goal, unlike you. Don’t misinterpret us with your marriage situation.”

“She was not good at rejecting people since she was a child. In order to make others happy, she would rather wrong herself. Is she really willing instead of obeying you?”

“Then according to you, is her performance today to please me, or does she like it?”

Fu Tingzhou was at a loss for words, but Wang Yanqing’s appearance today is very different from the quiet Qingqing in his memory. Are those bright eyes and firm aura just to please a man?

Fu Tingzhou was silent, Lu Heng felt that he and Fu Tingzhou had nothing to talk about, and said, “She is naturally delicate and sensitive, and she had to observe her words and expressions in order to survive when she was young, and this is how she developed her ability to observe far beyond ordinary people. Although I feel sorry for what she suffered when she was a child. Sin, but since she has this ability, she shouldn’t be buried in the inner house to please her mother-in-law and husband. The emperor also knew that she would be involved in some confidential cases by default. If you really want her to be good, don’t mention her in the future. Name. And, hold yourself back and keep your distance from her in public.”

Lu Heng glanced at him, his eyes cold and sharp: “Don’t forget, you are already married, the nephew and son-in-law of Marquis Wuding.”

·

Wang Yanqing walked alone for a while, when footsteps quickly followed. Lu Heng held her hand and was avoided by her, but Lu Heng refused to let go, and resolutely picked up her hand and intertwined her fingers. Wang Yanqing couldn’t make it, so he gave up.

Lu Heng said slowly: “Qingqing, you can’t blame me if you’re angry with him, right?”

“No.”

“Not angry, or not angry with me?”

Wang Yanqing didn’t speak, and Lu Heng said, “Qingqing, I won’t doubt you, as long as it’s the news you give, I’ll do as you say. But Fu Tingzhou is a small-bellied, stubborn, arrogant, self-righteous…”

Lu Heng scolded Fu Tingzhou without blinking his eyes and wanted to avenge his personal revenge. Wang Yanqing couldn’t hold back and smiled softly.

She is not angry that she is kind and helpful, but others don’t believe her. She just saw that Fu Tingzhou was so surprised, and she was not worth it for herself. In the past ten years, he found out that she was different today. If Wang Yanqing hadn’t fallen off a cliff or lost his memory, would he have taken it for granted all his life?

Compassionate, gentle and sensible, Jie Yuhua… ah.

Wang Yanqing was in a low mood, and when she saw Lu Heng, she couldn’t immediately warm up. But Lu Heng ran on Fu Tingzhou in front of her, and dared to use any words to belittle Fu Tingzhou, she suddenly felt that it didn’t matter.

All kinds of things in the past, such as yesterday’s death. Now that her husband is Lu Heng, do you still care what he did before?

Wang Yanqing said: “Okay, I don’t mind you doubting me. He is the coach, and all the merits and demerits are counted on him. He suddenly heard the deployment of the opponent’s troops, and it is understandable to want to confirm again.”

Halfway through she said, she felt Lu Heng’s fingers locked, and the base of her fingers hurt. Lu Heng was confused and asked, “Qingqing, are you speaking for him?”

“I didn’t, just to be fair.”

Very good, Lu Heng was originally afraid that Wang Yanqing would be unhappy, but now that Wang Yanqing is fine, he is extremely unhappy!

·

After Lu Heng killed two high-ranking officials in a row, no one in Nanzhili dared to confront the Governor again. Fu Tingzhou’s great victory on Jintai Island was like a booster shot into the hearts of everyone. The morale of the army was greatly boosted, and no one in the official circles said anything about being discouraged.

Maybe not. Officials with masters and intentions passed away due to accidents one after another, and everyone was not a fool. Look at those who died, and then look at Lu Heng, who was in Nanjing with his sweet wife, who would dare to sing the opposite.

After Lu Heng knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger, the official atmosphere was cleared. There was no support at the top, and the army quickly settled down. What he was afraid of on the battlefield was not failure, but the instability of the army. Fu Tingzhou took the opportunity to break up the original team, regrouped, and recruited militiamen who were good at fighting among the people.

Don’t underestimate the common people, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are many hills, some mountain villages are closed and united, and the fight between the two villages is much more fierce than the battlefield.

Professionals can’t beat those who get money, and those who get money can’t beat those who are born to like them. Fu Tingzhou recruited these people and formed a separate formation, which immediately greatly improved their combat effectiveness against Japanese.

After that, the Ming army fought against Japanese pirates several times, and many outstanding generals emerged in the actual combat, such as Hu Zongxian, who was a jinshi who learned the art of war by himself, Qi Jiguang, who was born in a family of military generals in Dengzhou, and Yu Dayou and Lu Tong, who were former members of Zhu Wan…

Tomorrow, the army will besiege Xu Hai, one of the biggest Japanese pirates on the coast. Now the Japanese pirates are probably divided into two forces, one is Xu Hai and the other is Wang Zhi.

Now that the war with the Japanese pirates has reached a critical stage, they are no longer facing a small group of scattered pirates, but a truly organized and disciplined armed force. If they can defeat Xu Hai and then go all out to deal with Wang Zhi, the court’s chances of winning will immediately increase a lot. If the battle fails tomorrow… Then Xu Hai and Wang Zhi cooperate with each other and drag them to fight on two fronts. Hard to win.

Therefore, tomorrow’s battle is crucial.

On the eve of the war, Wang Yanqing and Lu Heng went out of the city, climbed the hillside, and looked out at the vast expanse of the sea.

The sea is blue and mysterious, the waves lapping on the shore, and the continuous sound of the tide is soothing. Wang Yanqing sighed: “I really don’t want to imagine that tomorrow, this place will be dyed red by artillery fire and corpses, and it will no longer be as peaceful and beautiful as it is now.”

Lu Heng said: “Nature is ruthless. It hasn’t changed for anyone for thousands of years. In a day, the ocean will return to its original shape, and only people can’t go back.”

The two stood on the hill, with the lights of thousands of houses behind them, and the vast ocean in front of them. The sea breeze was blowing from all directions, and the two people’s shirts squeaked. Wang Yanqing suppressed her hair that was flying around and asked, “Will the war end?”

can you? This time, Lu Heng did not weave a beautiful dream for her, but said, “I don’t know.”

Human greed is endless, as long as there is profit, there will be struggle. As long as people’s greed does not stop, the war will never end.

Lu Heng asked, “Do you know why there are Japanese pirates?”

“Because of the civil strife in Dongying, the people were struggling, and many Japanese fled.”

“no.”

“Because Westerners have built big ships and can travel across the ocean to our coast, so some people are driven by interests and do business with Westerners?”

“No.” Lu Heng said, “these are mostly external factors. How many Japanese people can escape? The coastline is here, and there will be other people if not Westerners. If they don’t build ships, there will be no struggle along the coast. The root cause of the Japanese pirates is actually the sea ban.”

“why?”

“The coast is different from the inland. There are many people here, and the land is not enough for farming. Since the Song Dynasty, many people in Zhejiang and Fujian have relied on doing business to make a living. After the court ordered the sea ban, they cut off their livelihoods and could only move around, quietly transporting goods, trying to find ways to make a living. Avoiding the pursuit of officers and soldiers, it gradually evolved into a pirate. If the conflict between people and land is not resolved, even if this group of Japanese pirates is quelled, in a few decades, new problems will develop.”

“If that’s the case, why not let go of the sea ban?”

Lu Heng shook his head: “Governing the country is a simple multiple-choice question. The emperors of the previous dynasties loosened the sea ban and set up a city and shipping department along the coast. There are fewer Japanese pirates, but it also involves the occupation of land, government and businessmen. Collusion and other issues. When the emperor first ascended the throne, the two shogunate delegations from Dongying met at the Ship Division of Ningbo City. Many civilians and officers and soldiers. After this incident, the emperor closed the shipping divisions in Zhejiang and Fujian, refusing to allow the Japanese to land. The official channel was closed, and they could only collude with private individuals, which gradually turned into a disaster for Japanese pirates.”

During this period of time in the south of the Yangtze River, Wang Yanqing saw all kinds of people, and she realized that those pirates who were robbers on the sea were not necessarily born bad. Wu Sheng actually said something right, people can’t live anymore, what about He Zhong, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness?

Wang Yanqing asked sincerely, “Is the sea ban really correct?”

“I don’t know.” Lu Heng turned back and looked at her with a smile, “This is something that the emperor should consider, how do I know? In such a big country, if you control it, you will die, and if you let it go, there will be chaos. There are so many heroes in the history books. They all sigh that it is easy to conquer the world and it is difficult to rule the world, how can I answer this kind of question?”

Wang Yanqing’s mind was very confused, she couldn’t think of an answer, she stood silently beside Lu Heng, and looked at the vast sea with him.

This is a **** era, with fierce party disputes and wars, and officials are involved in the court battle and die every day. But this is also an era of bright stars. Zhu Wan, Qi Jiguang, Hu Zongxian, Yu Dayou, there are emperors, Xia Wenjin, Zhang Jingong in the capital, and perhaps Fu Tingzhou and Lu Heng should be added.

The emergence of talents in large numbers is one of the important symbols of prosperity. Each of them are top smart people, gathered on the same stage, cherishing each other and killing each other. She was fortunate enough to live in this era and to witness the rise and fall of these geniuses with her own eyes.

Wang Yanqing asked Lu Heng: “The Japanese-Japanese war has far-reaching effects, and it will definitely be a highlight in the history books in the future. However, the history books will only describe Hu Zongxian as governor of Zhejiang, clever tricks to capture thieves, Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou to protect the family and defend the country, and heroic generals. Won’t mention you. Wouldn’t you be unhappy?”

Lu Heng laughed: “I don’t even know how to live my life for decades. What do I care about my reputation? To the commander of Jin Yiwei, being famous is not a good thing. I wish everyone would not remember me.”

“Do you really care?”

Lu Heng looked at the distant sea level, the sea and the sky were a line, and the splendid galaxy seemed to be poured into the sea. The world is so vast, how small are people?

Lu Heng said: “Now that the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment, that’s enough.”

Some people are shining bright and famous for eternity, and there are people who stand in the dark and move forward with a heavy load. The prosperous world is not only bright and beautiful, but more places are hidden in the mud, festering and producing maggots. Someone needs to remove the carrion inside and carry it forward.

But what everyone can remember in the future is always that glorious and powerful prosperous world.

The sea breeze is getting colder and colder, and the city gate will be closed after waiting. Lu Heng and Wang Yanqing walked down the mountain together, their horses were grazing on a tree, and when they saw them coming back, they chirped excitedly.

Lu Heng first untied Wang Yanqing’s horse and handed her the reins. Wang Yanqing skillfully turned on his horse, and after she sat down, Lu Heng also came up. The two of them didn’t need to say more, Lu Heng gave a soft drink, and the horse galloped with its hooves immediately, and Wang Yanqing immediately followed.

They didn’t call the guards, and ran towards the city gate one after the other.

The crescent moon in the back is like a hook, the cold wind is blowing, and the nine-layered city tower in front is full of lights.

At this moment, it was only the two of them.
