Qin Huaidao was indifferent and silent, but his heart was filled with anger.
The East Palace Token makes things complicated. If it is a certain aristocratic family, just lead troops to attack it, and you can make new achievements, but the prince is the heir apparent, which is no small matter.
Yu Chigong looked at Qin Huaidao with complicated eyes, and said in a low voice: "My dear nephew, maybe someone framed me and framed the fault. I believe that the Holy One will definitely give you an explanation."
Qin Huaidao also thought about this problem and asked: "Who would be most beneficial if someone framed the crime?"
When Yuchi Gong heard these words, he immediately took a breath and became even more confused. If it was really framed, the one who would benefit the most was the King of Wei. Everyone knew about the dispute between the King of Wei and the Crown Prince, and he was also the most suspected.
It's bigger and more complex.
Thinking of some possibility, Yu Chigong said uncertainly: "Could it be that the Wang family or the Cui family deliberately framed you and provoked a conflict between you and the prince, thus triggering a confrontation between Wu Xun and the East Palace and causing turmoil in the court."
Qin Huaidao asked coldly: "Who is benefiting from the same sentence?"
Yuchi Gong couldn't take it anymore. If the court was in turmoil, Li Er would definitely not sit idly by and remove the prince. The most favored King Wei would benefit. In other words, even if the Wang family or Cui family framed it, it was all to support Wei King Li Tai.
, Yuchi Gong hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Maybe the King of Wei doesn't know about it, and someone has planned it."
"This reason is not valid." Qin Huaidao said coldly: "General, if it were you, would you dare to do this without King Wei's instructions? Aren't you afraid of being abandoned by King Wei if the matter is revealed? Aren't you afraid that King Wei will deliberately hand you over to recruit martial arts support?
?Aren’t you afraid that the King of Wei will be jealous after ascending to Dabao in the future and kill him to silence him?”
After asking three questions in a row, Yu Chigong was speechless and couldn't say a word for a long time.
In my heart, I was also a little shaken.
Thinking about it from his perspective, if it were him, even if he dared to assassinate Qin Huaidao, he would not dare to frame the prince and leave the case to the king of Wei, who would be liquidated afterwards.
In fact, Qin Huaidao also suspected that King Wei had put the blame on the East Palace, but he could not find a reason to convince himself, because King Wei was more risky in doing so. Once exposed, everything would be lost, but there was not enough evidence to draw a conclusion.
Was it the King of Wei who framed him?
Or is Dong Gong using a bitter trick?
Things get confusing.
Qin Huaidao gradually calmed down and made a decision in his heart. No matter who it was, he only needed to go to the East Palace and force the prince to prove his innocence. The prince would definitely investigate thoroughly. If it was the prince who did it, the prince would have to find a scapegoat. In this way, even if the prince
If you escape a disaster, the people around you will also be in danger. No one dares to do anything to you again, lest you become the second abandoned child. You will be completely incompatible with the East Palace, and you don't have to worry about being involved in the disputes over the country in the future.
If it wasn't Donggong who did it, the prince would fight back crazily to prove his innocence and dig out the real culprit at all costs.
Therefore, regardless of whether it was the prince who did it or not, he must go to the door and make the matter bigger!
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qin Huaidao made a decision and said coldly: "General, I'm going to see who it is."
If it were someone else, Yu Chigong would definitely object. After all, the matter concerned the prince and was too involved to take risks. However, the two families were family friends and had a strong military reputation, so it was difficult to stop him. Yuchi Gong nodded in acquiescence.
Qin Huaidao immediately went to find Yuchi Baoqi and explained his purpose of coming. Yuchi Baoqi also felt that Qin Huaidao was not worthy of his visit. He was angry in his heart and did not object. He led him to a courtyard, which was considered the best room in the village.
The yard was full of corpses. One of them was wearing brocade clothes and stood out from the crowd. Yuchi Baoqi pointed at the corpse and said: "This is the man. He is a master of swordsmanship. The besieging soldiers said that he could withstand the siege of five Yulin troops and was shot."
He decided to commit suicide after his thigh, and would rather die than surrender."
Qin Huaidao got off his horse and stepped forward to check.
"Bring the torch." Yuchi Baoqi shouted.
Soon, several soldiers of the Yulin Army came over holding torches. Qin Huaidao used the light of the torch to find that the other party was about thirty years old. He looked like a scholar, but his palms were very thick, there were calluses on his palms, and there was a gap on his neck. It was indeed...
After committing suicide, Qin Huaidao stood up and walked towards the back room.
Yuchi Baoqi felt the killing intent in Qin Huaidao, like a ferocious beast that could burst out and bite people at any time. He quickly followed him. When he saw Qin Huaidao rummaging around, he reacted and shouted: "You two, come here and search carefully!"
"Here!" Several soldiers came in to help.
After a search, nothing of value was found. The room was extremely simple and plain, and there was no place to hide anything. Qin Huaidao continued to search uneasily, not letting go of any details, but still couldn't find any clues. He said without giving up: "Let's
Everyone, please help search other places and arrange for someone to notify the Jingyang County Magistrate to come over."
"Understood!" Yuchi Baoqi hurried out, just as Yuchi Gong came over, he told Qin Huaidao what he meant, looked around, and added in a low voice: "Dad, this matter is too relevant, are we?"
Yuchi Gong lowered his voice knowingly and warned: "Don't think too much, just follow it, the Qin family and our family are life-and-death friends, and we must share weal and woe, otherwise it will be him today and you tomorrow."
"My child understands." Yuchi Baoqi hurriedly went to deliver the order.
"I'm not worried today." Yu Chigong looked at the moonlight, feeling extremely depressed.
After standing in the yard and waiting for a while, he saw Qin Huaidao coming out and asked in a low voice: "Is there anything gained?"
Qin Huaidao shook his head and remained silent.
"Huai Dao, don't worry. No matter what, I will be behind you, and those old guys will be behind you too." Yuchi Gong said in a low voice, with a firm tone.
Qin Huaidao nodded gratefully and looked at the night sky without saying a word.
Yuchi Gong was bold and forthright, and did not know how to comfort people. He hesitated to speak, and finally turned into a sigh. There was no good way to deal with the prince. After thinking for a while, Yuchi Gong said in a low voice: "Go back to the pharmacist and ask.
Scheming, he is the strongest among us old guys, so he should have a way."
"It doesn't matter, I know it well." Qin Huaidao said indifferently.
"We don't want to cause trouble." Yu Chigong became nervous.
Qin Huaidao didn't want to explain, he just had to do some things by himself, at worst, he might die, and he might be able to go back. Everyone else had to take care of their families, so it was good for him and he couldn't drag him down.
Yu Chigong could see that Qin Huaidao had made a decision in his heart, but he refused to say it. He was too anxious and asked a few questions but still didn't speak. He had to give up and made up his mind to discuss it with the old guys when he got back. He couldn't let his younger generations suffer.
, fell from the majesty of martial arts.
The two of them had their own thoughts and remained silent.
After a while, three captains came over to report the situation. A total of 367 people were killed, 300 crossbows, more than 400 knives, countless crossbow arrows, and more than 3,000 taels of silver were seized. Yuchi Gong asked someone to register
Registered and sealed, they are all evidence and must be escorted back to Chang'an.
It was getting too late and it was inconvenient to go back, so Yu Chigong went to make arrangements for setting up defenses, lighting a fire and keeping warm.
Qin Huaidao stood still in the courtyard, worried.
About an hour later, Yuchi Baoqi led the Jingyang County Magistrate, County Magistrate, County Lieutenant and others in a hurry and introduced them one by one. Upon hearing Qin Huaidao's identity, everyone bowed and saluted.
Qin Huaidao returned the gift, stared at the county magistrate and asked bluntly: "Whose property is here?"
