Chapter 87 Mung Bean Cake (3)

There is nothing wrong with enjoying the mountains and rivers with adults and children at the bottom, but it is unreasonable to deliberately choose a remote trail with no sights to enjoy.

Lin Fei took out a booklet from his arms, pointed to the red seal of the Jingzhao Mansion Health Office in the lower right corner of the cover, and said: "Yesterday, someone set fire to the warehouse of the Jingzhao Mansion Health Office. The files in the warehouse

Most of them were burned. But the laws of heaven are clear and there are no omissions. Even though more than half of the files in the warehouse were burned, the files that deserved to be burned the most were kept."

Looking at the pale faces of Li Zhao and others, Lin Fei said: "Do you think this is something that has its own destiny?"

It turned out to be evidence found from the warehouse of the Jingzhao Mansion Guard! Zhao Mengzhuo suddenly realized, his face full of shame: He, the Minister of Dali Temple, slept so well last night, not to mention how sweet he was. He had no idea that so many things happened in the city.

thing.

It turned out that in addition to the officials of Dali Temple who were being hunted in the city, the Jingzhao Prefecture 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 started talking.

"As a citizen of Da Rong, a member of the Li family, rich and powerful, with everything at your fingertips, yet you collude with those Japanese bandits pretending to be Japanese. Are you, the Prince of Huaishan County, so insatiable?" Lin Fei looked at Li Zhao.

Waiting for someone, said.

The Prince of Huaishan County who was asked about this turned pale. He reached out and patted the shoulder of Li Zhao who stood up. He walked to the front of the family and said, "Really, we are also the victims of this matter!"

He smiled bitterly and said, "You don't have a choice in where you come from!"

The aggrieved look on Liu Yuanda's face turned him off. If Lin Fei hadn't been standing in front of him, asking questions, he would have been unable to hold back his words.

Having no choice in origin? With the surname "Li", the Huaishan County Prince and his family were born to be clansmen. They could enjoy all the wealth and honor in the world without having to make any achievements.

Is it unfair to be born without a choice? If this background is called a grievance, what do Hu Chengzu, Ma Sanci, Fuzi and others mean?

Lin Fei did not utter any words of ridicule, but just looked at the Prince of Huaishan in front of him, paused for a moment, and asked again: "Why did the old Prince come to this?"

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

Since ancient times, the royal family has been fighting for the throne, and fratricide is no joke. In the end, there is only one person who can sit in that position.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Mengzhuo and others were reminded that the late emperor did not ascend the throne as a prince. The first Emperor Jing had no children, and in the end it was the late emperor who was selected from among the descendants of the clan to inherit the throne.

As for the late Emperor... To be honest, his abilities and talents were mediocre. Apart from being the best in terms of the number of concubines in the harem, he was really incompetent compared to the previous majesties.

At that time, they were both descendants of the clan, and the old Huaishan Prince was indeed far superior to the late emperor in terms of ability and virtue.

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

It's understandable that he doesn't accept it, but it's not understandable that he colludes with the Japanese because of his dissatisfaction.

However, twenty-five years ago, the late emperor had ascended the throne, and the old Huaishan County Prince had also passed away at that time. Why did his family take such a desperate risk to find the Japanese?

"My father was one step off the mark at the time, hoping to use the help of the Japanese to eradicate the late emperor before he ascended the throne." The king of Huaishan County said with a bitter smile, "The late emperor escaped by mistake, but it was my father who, due to an accident, died.

I occasionally caught wind and cold, but I couldn't get sick because of it and left soon after."

Originally, this was just a matter that lingered in the minds of Prince Huaishan’s family. I thought that when the old Prince Huaishan left, he would also take this matter away, but I didn’t expect...

"The Japanese have letters in their hands that my father collaborated with them to murder the late emperor. Twenty-five years ago, when the late emperor had just ascended the throne, they used the letters to find my family." The King of Huaishan County said, "So my family had to

Take a trip to Salt Lake City.”

In just a few words, the whole story of what happened that year has been sketched out.

The Prince of Huaishan County and his family are not stupid. They obviously know that they must work tirelessly to solve the problem in a timely manner. Therefore, when they went to Salt Lake City, their purpose was to eradicate the Japanese bandits disguised as rogues.

This also explains why the Huaishan County Prince and his family did not inform local officials of their identities at that time. They must have known that there was something wrong with those officials.

In the plan of the Huaishan County Prince and his family, "escaped persons" were arranged early to inform the people in time and attract the army to suppress the rogue bandits.

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

What the King of Huaishan County wanted to hide was the fact that the old King of Huaishan County colluded with the Japanese and attempted to murder the late emperor. Once this matter was exposed, not to mention being demoted to common people, the whole family would probably have more heads than they could chop off.

.

"Your family has planned everything, and they knew that the Japanese would definitely take you away, so they asked their subordinates to take your place and be taken hostage by the Japanese." Lin Fei said, paused, and suddenly looked at the people in front of him.

The family of the Prince of Huaishan County. Whether it was the old servant Song Guanshi who had served him loyally for many years, or the group of dead soldiers who fought hard last night, the Prince of Huaishan County, his family, and his family had never shown any sadness before.

It was not until the truth about twenty-five years ago was revealed that his family began to grieve.

Lin Fei looked at the Prince of Huaishan County in front of him and couldn't help but frown, "How much sincere concern does your family have for the people below who sacrificed their lives for you?"

The gentle look on Prince Huaishan's face had long since disappeared, and his calm expression now looked a little inexplicably gloomy. 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 feel grateful and sacrifice his own son in place of his son.

Hearing this, Zhao Mengzhuo on the side suddenly felt that the old Huaishan County King who was the first Emperor Jing not to select talents and whose virtues were very outstanding had some truth. If such a person sat on the throne of God... that would not be a blessing to the people!

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

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

How could someone who could calmly say such words as "little people are always the easiest to win over" let go of an old servant who could replace the old lady for no reason?

Prince Huaishan nodded and confirmed what he said: "They have seen my mother and cannot replace her."

Originally, all of this would be completely buried in the bloodshed of Salt Lake City with the suppression of the army, but unexpectedly...

"When the military camp came to suppress the situation, a small group of troops sneaked into the city first and witnessed the discussion between my mother and the Japanese," said the King of Huaishan County.

The soldiers who were originally intended to completely solve the hidden dangers have become their biggest hidden danger at this time.
