Liu Qian felt that her life seemed extremely happy, with her family reunited and a happy life. As long as it was what she wanted, Chen Cheng would try his best to achieve it. From time to time, she could hear new songs and read new poems. Such a life
, has exceeded the best situation she had ever imagined as a child.
But there are not so good things. She put on her clothes and walked up to the lobby a little unhappy. She thought to herself: "Why don't Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and those people just stay still? This way, Master doesn't have to go out to fight often."
!”
She sat down on the chair and talked about girls with Zi Jiaer who came in later, and she felt better again. At this time, Chen Cheng also walked in, sat next to them, and said with a smile: "
What are you talking about?"
Zi Jiaer replied: "I am talking to the princess about matching clothes."
Well, girls always like these gorgeous things, no matter what era they are in. After a while, Diao Chan and the other girls were ready, and walked up to them, prostrated themselves on the ground, and said together
: "Meet the general and meet the princess!"
Liu Qian glanced at Chen Cheng, pointed at Diao Chan who was bowing down to Yingying, and said, "I feel pity for Miss Wang, wouldn't Master be moved?"
"My heart is always moving, otherwise wouldn't I be a dead person?"
Liu Qian curled her lips and said to Zi Jia'er, "Okay, let's go dance together."
Zi Jia'er stood up, bowed to Chen Cheng once more, and then retreated to Diao Chan's side with light steps. Both of them were one-of-a-kind beauties, with skin as white as snow, and they were young and beautiful. Standing together, they formed the perfect
The effect is not additive, but magnified many times.
When beautiful things are put together, not only do they not cover up each other's beauty, but they seem to have the effect of promoting and strengthening each other. When people see them, they just feel relaxed and happy, and their mood becomes better.
With the sound of strings and bamboos, the girls let go of their voices, and the crisp and soft singing resounded in the lobby. However, the next moment, heavy footsteps sounded at the edge of the lobby. Guards and soldiers wearing heavy armor hurried over.
, ignoring the girls who were singing and dancing, walked to Chen Cheng's side and whispered something.
When the guard came over, Liu Qian's attention shifted from Zi Jia'er and Diao Chan to the other side. At this time, Chen Cheng's expression became solemn, and she stretched out her hand and grabbed it.
Chen Cheng held up his palm and asked, "What happened?"
Chen Cheng replied in a low voice: "Yang Qiu, Minister of the Ministry of War, was assassinated in the office just now!"
"Ah?" Liu Qian was startled and asked: "Who did it? Is Yang Qiu's injury serious?"
Chen Cheng shook his head, held down Liu Qian who was about to stand up, and said, "It's rare for Diao Chan and Zi Jia'er to perform a dance together. You can stay here with them. I'll go to the office to have a look."
He leaned down, kissed Liu Qian on the forehead, and said, "Sorry, I wanted to stay with you for the whole day, but now there is an emergency."
Liu Qian frowned slightly, then relaxed it, and said with a smile: "Master, just come back soon. I will leave Zi Jia'er and Diao Chan to spend the night together."
Chen Cheng nodded, shook his head, and then hurried out with the guards. Zi Jiaer and Diao Chan, who were stretching their bodies, caught a glimpse from the corner of their eyes, and couldn't help but stop. Liu Qian, who was sitting above, knocked on the table.
, said loudly: "Stop for what? Keep dancing!"
"Yes, princess!"
The singing and dancing paused for a moment, and then resumed. But at this time, all the girls were in the hall, and the atmosphere seemed not as good as before.
Chen Cheng rushed to the office from the General's Mansion on horseback and saw that the outside was heavily surrounded by soldiers. He grabbed his horse, jumped off, and strode inside. As he walked, he asked Pound who was following him, "
What happened? How did the assassin enter the office?"
Pang De replied: "It was Huang Hai, the cavalry general under General Cheng Yi. He came to the Ministry of War on official business and took the opportunity to stab Yang Shangshu to death."
Chen Cheng paused, "Yang Qiu is dead?"
"Yes, he was stabbed in the heart and neck. By the time the soldiers rushed in, Yang Shangshu had already died."
"Damn it! Huang Hai, that bastard," Chen Cheng said angrily, "I want to ask him why he did this!"
Yang Qiu sat in the position of Minister of War for four or five years. He worked hard and was in charge of all armed forces except Yabing. Although his position was not as high as that of Yan Zhong and Jia Xu, he was still an important minister who could decide the court's policies. Chen Cheng was still there.
I was considering whether to send him out to serve as a state pastor or to move him up a level, but I didn't expect that he would die like this.
He also knew that Huang Hai was a general under Cheng Yi. During the battle with the Huns at the foot of Helan Mountain, Huang Hai once led the cavalry to launch a side attack against the Huns. This man could be regarded as a general who was good at fighting, and Chen Cheng was prepared to reuse him.
.
Pang De said, "After Huang Hai killed Yang Shangshu, he committed suicide with his sword."
"What?" Chen Cheng stopped, his face uncertain, "He committed suicide?"
"Yes, the body is next to Yang Shangshu."
"Damn it, bastard! You lost two of my generals in one fell swoop!"
Chen Cheng strode to the office of the Ministry of War. There were soldiers guarding the lobby outside, and many officials were pointing around. Yan Zhong was already waiting inside. He was originally going to discuss the allocation of ordnance and war horses with Yang Qiu.
Things were unexpected. As soon as I came here, I found that something big had happened here.
"Junhou," Yan Zhong said with a solemn expression, "Yang Qiu and the assassin Huang Hai are both dead."
"I already know, how could something like this happen? What is the deep hatred between Huang Hai and Yang Qiu? So much so that they want to kill someone first and then commit suicide?"
"This..." Yan Zhong hesitated for a moment and looked at the soldiers following him on both sides. Chen Cheng knew what he meant, so he turned around and ordered: "Go wait outside and tell the officials to disperse!"
"promise!"
After everyone exited, Chen Cheng smelled the smell of blood in the lobby and looked at the two corpses on the ground, feeling increasingly agitated. He calmed down and asked, "Did Huang Hai be bribed by someone? He actually did it.
What happened to the dead soldiers?"
"It wasn't that he was bribed," Yan Zhong smiled bitterly, then sighed and said, "He was so angry that he killed Yang Qiu."
"Why?"
Yan Zhong said: "Do you know that Huang Hai's wife Li is a clansman of General Li Kan?"
"Heard a little bit."
"Li's name is Tiantian, and she is very beautiful. She originally had many suitors, and later she married Huang Hai. At that time, the relationship between the powerful people in Lingzhou and Yang Qiu was tense. This move may not have been possible without the help of Cheng Yi's power to compete with Yang Qiu.
the meaning of."
"so what?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down and listen to me." Yan Zhong said unhurriedly: "Ms. Li is very beautiful. After marrying Huang Hai, the two of them lived a happy life. Later, Mrs. Li returned home.
I went home to visit my family, and met my old sweetheart again. The two flirted with each other, and they hooked up and became an adulterer when Huang Hai was away."
Chen Cheng said angrily: "Are you going to tell me that your former best friend and later adulterer was Yang Qiu?"
"...Exactly!"
Chen Cheng looked at the sky speechlessly. After a while, he said: "The word "sex" has a knife on its head. Gambling is close to robbery, and rape is close to killing! Why doesn't Yang Qiu understand this truth? The Li family is already married. He
Why are you still getting involved with others? Are all the women in this world dead?"
"Bet is close to robbers, rape is close to killing," Yan Zhong thought for a moment and said, "This sentence makes sense. What the emperor didn't know is that Li is very sweet, and she lives up to the name Tiantian. Yang Qiu
After capturing Beidi, they fell in love at first sight, and the two soon began to have an affair. If the Li family and Yang Qiu were not in the same boat, Li would have married Yang Qiu."
Chen Cheng turned his head sideways, with a strange expression on his face, "How do you know so clearly, Bo Dao?"
Yan Zhong said: "I may not know much about other places, but things about Liangzhou are just like the lines on my palms. There is nothing unclear about them."
"Humph, since you already knew it, why didn't you remind Yang Qiu?"
Yan Zhong sighed and said: "How did I know that after so many years, Yang Qiu still misses Li? After Huang Hai was transferred to Chang'an, Yang Qiu and the others soon rekindled their old relationship. Yang Qiu was the Minister of the Ministry of War, and often sent Huang Hai to
When she went out on business, Mrs. Li couldn't stand being lonely, and then..."
Having said this, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Did Mrs. Li bring it?"
"I've ordered people to be detained next door. Do you want to go take a look?"
Chen Cheng said angrily: "What are you looking at? Don't hold her, let her take Huang Hai's body back and bury it!"
Yan Zhong was stunned and asked: "Forget it?"
"What else can we do? Do we have to spread the word all over the world? These two people..."
Chen Cheng pointed to the two corpses in the pool of blood and said: "These two are either important ministers of the imperial court or generals in the army. If such a scandal is caused, how do you want others to see us?"
Yan Zhong said: "But there may be a hidden secret in it."
"For example?"
"How did Huang Hai know that Li and Yang Qiu were hooking up again? His wife had an affair with someone else and divorced him. Why would a man worry about not having a wife? How could Huang Hai think of killing Yang Qiu? I'm afraid someone was instigating it.
!”
The two people who died in the hall were both members of the Liangzhou sect, forgetting Huang Hai. Although such brave generals were superb in martial arts and extremely courageous (otherwise they wouldn't have committed murder first and then committed suicide), there were still many in Liangzhou who could be caught.
A lot of them. Yang Qiu is different. He is an extremely important figure in the government now. He is in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops. He can be said to be the small group of people closest to the center of power.
Now that Yang Qiu is dead, the position of Minister of the Ministry of War is vacant. Yan Zhong wondered if someone deliberately instigated Huang Hai to do something after learning about Li's affairs. Those people also knew that Huang Hai was a strong man and would kill people.
I will definitely not be waiting to be thrown into jail. I will definitely commit suicide as a general, so I won’t worry about being traced.
Chen Cheng is well aware of the filming struggle below. Xiliang people occupy most of the important positions and want more. Guanzhong people are not willing to be outdone and have been working hard to perform. In terms of being brave and good at fighting, Xiliang people
The heroes are stronger than the people in Guanzhong. But when it comes to the research and study of "Chen Xue", the people of Xiliang can't catch up even if they are trying to catch up.
The fight between the two sides started from the court to the local area. If it weren't for Chen Cheng's pressure from above, many things would have happened long ago.
He shook his head and said to Yan Zhong: "That's the end of the matter. Let's just say that the two fell from their horses and died of serious injuries. Don't mention anything else."
