Chapter 1501 The Sudden Change in Suzhou - Emergency
"Brother Tang, you!" Xiang Yuanhong turned around, looked at Tang Jingyu with wide eyes, and shouted.
"Don't blame the elder brother. The elder brother was forced to have no choice but to borrow your head!" Tang Jingyu said as he stepped forward and stabbed his heart with a knife. Xiang Yuanhong immediately died with his eyes wide open.
.
"Brother Tang!" What happened just now happened in an instant. Xiang Yuanhong was already dead before Mo Li could wake up. When Tang Jingyu pulled out the knife from Xiang Yuanhong's chest, Mo Li finally realized what he was doing.
He took out the sword from the scabbard and held it across his chest, shouting at the same time.
"Mo Li, you don't have to be so guarded against me. I won't kill you." Tang Jingyu casually threw the knife aside and said to him.
Seeing Tang Jingyu throw the knife out, Li Li asked in surprise: "Brother Tang, what are you going to do? Why did you kill Xiang Yuanhong?"
"In order to keep my wife and children alive!" Tang Jingyu said: "You just heard what Xiang Yuanhong said. He didn't tell lies, but he ignored one situation: as long as we abandon the White Lotus Sect, our wife and children can survive
Stay alive!"
"Your Majesty is very kind today. He has never implicated any of the nine tribes since he came to the throne. The most severe punishment was to ban the distant branches of the Yan family from serving as officials or taking the imperial examinations. However, he did not kill them all, nor did he
Exile. This shows that His Majesty will not execute people easily today."
"In this case, as long as I betray the White Lotus Sect and still perform meritorious service, even if I inevitably die, my wife and children will probably survive. Especially since I have no sons, even if His Majesty remarries my wife, He Miao, to someone else, and marries Sai'er to someone else at will.
People who cannot die will always survive. As long as you are alive, there is hope, which is better than death!"
"So I want to kill Xiang Yuanhong and perform meritorious service. Even if I am executed in the end, I will let my wife and children live."
"Aren't you afraid that your family will have no heirs?" Li Li asked back. Tang Jingyu didn't have a son, but he had a brother who was also a White Lotus sect. Why did Tang Jingyu betray the White Lotus sect, and the altar master and hall master executed his brothers and nephews in anger?
manage?
"Haha, I used to care about passing on incense and what will never be extinct, but I don't care anymore. If there are heaven and hell described in religion, and my family has believed in Mingzun for several generations, why do my ancestors need descendants to offer incense? I have it.
Fairies serve; if the religion is all lies and people are gone when they die, why do they care about having descendants? I just want my daughter to live a healthy life, at least to survive!" Tang Jingyu said.
Seeing that Mo Li was still hesitant, he added: "I know you are thinking about the children in your hometown. But don't you think about the children in the capital? I remember that your favorite son is in the capital, not in your hometown.
."
"Moreover," Tang Jingyu paused, walked to him with his hands raised, and said softly: "Do you think what Cao Ziyu did just now is a little strange?"
"I used the cold as an excuse to find someone to replace him. It was normal for him not to doubt it. But when he came to see me just now, the expressions of the three of us were not normal, and my hands were also unusually cold. Cao Ziyu is such a delicate person.
How could people not notice it? But he didn’t ask a word. And in the end, he specifically mentioned my family in Beijing. Don’t you think it’s strange?”
"You mean?"
"Cao Ziyu already knows our identities!" Tang Jingyu said: "I just figured it out. He must have already known our identities to do this! Believe it or not, as long as the two of us walked out of this room, we would have
If you hold a knife, you will be captured or killed immediately."
With a "clang", Mo Li's sword also fell to the ground. He took off the scabbard and said to Tang Jingyu: "Brother Tang, I understand. Let's go to Cao Ziyu immediately, plead guilty to His Highness, and make meritorious service."
"There should be no need to look for him." Tang Jingyu whispered again, then walked to the door and opened it. He immediately saw three guards standing in front of the door holding Zhuge Liannu in their hands, and Cao Ziyu stood aside.
Tang Jingyu immediately knelt down and said: "Guard Cao, I know that my crime deserves death, but at this time His Royal Highness Prince An is in danger of his life, and all the officials in the city are also in danger. I beg you to plead guilty and meritorious service!"
"This villain knows that he deserves to die for his crime, but he just wants to be punished by meritorious deeds!" Mo Li also knelt down and said.
"Your Highness, King An, is in fear of his life?" Cao Ziyu sneered: "It is precisely because of the three of you that His Highness is in fear of his life. Now one of the three of you has died in a fight, and the other two have been captured without mercy. Your Highness
Why are you still worried about your life?"
"You guys, tie them two up!" He ordered again. According to his thoughts, he wanted to chop Tang Jingyu and Mo Li on the spot. But according to He Yuan, the Suzhou Jinyi Guard Qianhu, they went to the Zhou Palace to do it.
The guards were arranged by His Majesty himself. His rash execution of these two men might offend His Majesty, so he could only suppress his anger and order someone to tie them up.
'Even if I can't kill you two, nor can I severely punish you, I will still punish you two and let you know my methods!' he thought.
"Guard Cao, His Highness's life is not only in danger because of us, but also because of the Dan family in the city!" Tang Jingyu said before the guard who came up to tie them up blocked his mouth.
"Slow down!" Upon hearing this, Cao Ziyu quickly ordered them not to shut up Tang Jingyu and Li Moli, and asked: "Dan family? What is the Dan family going to do?"
"May I ask Guard Cao, just over an hour ago, His Highness summoned Suzhou Jinyiwei Qianhu and other officials and ordered them to search the Dan family tonight?"
"Indeed." Cao Ziyu thought for a while and felt that Cao Ziyu and Mo Li would be under the strictest surveillance in the future, and he seemed to have known about it in advance, so he nodded. Of course, Zhu Ying's arrangement was not to raid Dan's house tonight.
Small mistakes like this will never be corrected.
"The Dan family had a hidden secret in the Jinyi Guards in Suzhou. After learning about this matter, they passed the news to the Dan family through various means. The Dan family decided to send people to attack the government offices in the city and the mansion where His Highness lived, and captured the Suzhou officials and His Highness alive, and then held them hostage.
His Highness and others went to the seaside, hoping to defraud the Donghai Navy Squadron and flee overseas! They also sent a few loyal servants to protect their youngest son and eldest grandson and flee to other places, so that they could leave their flesh and blood after the failure of the previous plan.
"
"It's almost time for Dan Mo to agree that we should cooperate inside and outside to capture His Highness alive!" Tang Jingyu said urgently and quickly.
"What you said is true!" Cao Ziyu grabbed his collar and asked loudly.
"There are absolutely no lies! If I have any lies, five thunders will strike from heaven!" Tang Jingyu said.
"Quick, go and tell His Highness about this, and then send someone to tell the Suzhou magistrate, Jin Yiwei Qianhu and others, quick!" Cao Ziyu said immediately.
But these few people agreed, and before they had time to send the message, they heard a "bang bang bang" sound coming from outside!
