Rebirth of the Golden Bastard

That night, Xia Yunqing and Pu Mingze went to Yingyou's residence together.Yingyou lives in the General's Mansion in the city. The house is nothing more than an ordinary courtyard, neither luxurious nor grand. There is an old mother in Yingyou's home. When the two of them came to disturb her, the old mother had already fallen asleep, so it was inconvenient to say hello.

At this time, Yingyou was sitting under the lamp oil wearing a long gown under the underwear and looked at the two, "Is there something urgent at this late?"

When he spoke, he naturally looked at Xia Yunqing, Xia Yunqing was his most proud apprentice.He is also a quick teacher, honest and honest, not impetuous or arrogant, Yingyou treats him like a parent and child, and his face is much gentler.

Xia Yunqing told what happened in the afternoon and what he did when he visited Fang Xing at night, and also told Park Mingze's thoughts.

Yingyou was silent after hearing this, and looked at Park Mingze after a while, "Before these things, I would like to know what Mr. Park's intention is in pretending not to speak Chinese?"

Pu Mingze said: "I used to live in Yilan for a few years, and it's not uncommon to be able to speak Chinese."

Both Xia Yunqing and Yingyou looked at him, "Have you lived in Yilan?"

Park Mingze also knows that if he wants to find someone to cooperate with, he must first tell the truth about himself.He said: "When I was young, I lived with my grandmother in a small village near the sea. My mother was originally from Yilan, and my father was from Jinzhang."

It was rare for Yingyou to show some surprise.You must know that Yilan and Jinzhang fought repeatedly in the past few years, and Yilan people would never stay with Jinzhang people. Even if there are people in love, they will inevitably be separated due to the surrounding pressure.It is conceivable that Pu Mingze never had a good life when he was young.

Pu Mingze also knew what they were thinking, and said mockingly: "I'm a bastard. Yilan doesn't accept it, and Jinzhang doesn't want it either. I live with my grandmother, and my parents died early due to the war. My grandmother also passed away when I was six years old. I drifted back to Jinzhang alone, pretended to be a lost child who was involved in the war, and was taken into Jinzhang Kingdom, where I spent a period of begging in Sheng’an, the capital of Jinzhang.”

Park Mingze recalled that time, with a bit of embarrassment on his face, "At first, I passed by ghosts several times, but fortunately, General Jin Zhang Li Zhengren rescued me and recruited me into the army. Later, I learned to read and write. The strength won the love of General Lee."

Yingyou and Jin Zhang have been fighting for many years, and they are very clear about Jin Zhang's generals.He thought for a while and said, "Li Zhengren should have passed away."

Park Mingze nodded, "He was old and died of tuberculosis. Now his eldest son Li Chengji holds the military power."

Xia Yunqing also said: "Li Chengji is a violent general. It is said that his military law is extremely strict, and the punishment for defectors is also terrible."

Pu Mingze nodded, "The Major General's behavior is too harsh, his younger brother Li Chengming and younger sister Li Zhen'er can't stand it."

Yingyou felt that Park Mingze was going to get to the point, so he raised an eyebrow, "Jinzhang civil turmoil?"

Park Mingze's face changed.In fact, things like civil strife should not be known to foreign countries, let alone an enemy country?But now he came to discuss peace under the order of King Jinzhang, because he wanted to ask Jinzhang for help to quell the civil strife.Now Li Chengji is in power, King Jinzhang is old and weak, the crown prince is not yet an adult, and the rest of the princes are peeking at the throne.Disagreeing with Yilan at this time is just suicidal.

"Originally we blocked the news and wanted to put all our eggs in one basket. But Xia Cangqiao completely disrupted the plan. I have received a new order from King Jinzhang, and everything will be left to the Emperor Ren. As long as the civil strife in Jinzhang can be quelled, King Jinzhang has decided to live for 50 years. Shout out to Yilan."

As soon as these words came out, Yingyou and Xia Yunqing were both stunned.For Yilan, recuperating for 50 years is the best thing, presumably by then their navy will be fully equipped.King Jinzhang's willingness to become a minister is simply a pie that fell from the sky.

Yingyou looked at him, "You can tell the emperor about this matter when you go to court, why do you have to talk about it alone?"

Pu Mingze said: "The general knows, whose subordinate is General Tang Ben?"

Xia Yunqing came to her senses, "Could it be Li Chengji's subordinate?"

"No, it's the younger brother of the major general, Li Chengming, who is now in charge of the chief of the Forbidden Army in the border town. And their younger sister, Li Zhen'er, is the wife that the second prince will marry next month."

Xia Yunqing said: "Could it be that your connection with King Jinzhang is still hidden from Tang Ben?"

Pu Mingze nodded, "Exactly. I can now be said to be the only one who rescued the Jinzhang Dynasty. It's hard to get off a tiger."

Yingyou looked at him, "How can I trust you?"

Pu Mingze took out something from his arms, "General Ying should recognize this thing."

Yingyou took a look, and said with a stern expression: "That's right, it's Zhanghe, the royal family crest of King Jinzhang, known as the Little Jade Seal."

What is Zhanghe?It has the same appearance as the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, but it is much smaller, and it is not as big as a ring finger in the palm of your hand.At the bottom are engraved the words Jinzhang Wangzhao.

With this thing in hand, even if you see King Jinzhang, you also have the power to deal with the affairs of officials other than internal officials at will.

Park Mingze said: "At first I didn't express my intention to come here, but I just wanted to see if Yilan could become a country that would allow my king to become a vassal. Now it seems that Yilan has a large number of talents, and the ability of Master Xia is what we urgently need. Of course, Yilan's left and right generals Strength is also essential."

Yingyou nodded, and returned Zhanghe to Park Mingze.Xia Yunqing said again: "Since Tang Ben is Li Chengming's confidant, they support the second prince to become king?"

Pu Mingze nodded, "Major General Li Chengji supports the tenth prince. The tenth prince is only seven years old now. He simply wants the prince to be a puppet king."

Yingyou nodded, "Jin Zhang's orthodox crown prince should be the fifth prince, Jin Dali. But it is said that he is not over sixteen."

Pu Mingze nodded, "The fifth prince was born to the queen, but the queen's family is being persecuted by the Li family now. If the second prince is enthroned, the power will fall to the Li family. If the tenth prince is enthroned, the effect will be the same. But Li Chengji will definitely cover the sky with one hand."

Yingyou shook his head and looked at him, "You, Jin Zhang, are really like a tiger before you and a wolf behind you."

Pu Mingze smiled wryly, "Who said it wasn't?"

Yingyou stood up with his hands behind his back, paced back and forth in the room, and after two circles, he said: "I have my own discretion in this matter, you go back for now. Yunqing, you are tired tomorrow, go to the palace to find your senior brother Nine princes."

Xia Yunqing stood up and said yes.Pu Mingze also bowed his hands, "On behalf of King Jin Zhang, I am grateful!"

The two left Yingyou's mansion, it was almost dawn at this time, Xia Yunqing was exhausted, but her heart was still thinking about Cang Qiao in the cell.I don't know if he slept well or not.

Pu Mingze saw his appearance, and said, "Second young master, don't worry, the eldest young master actually has his own ideas, which are far beyond what you and I can think of."

Xia Yunqing was helpless, did not answer, bid farewell to Pu Mingze, and the two were on the road separately.

……

At noon the next day, another person entered the cell with a food box.Cang Qiao was eating peanuts and drinking wine at the wooden table, when she saw someone coming, she clapped her hands and stood up, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, Feng Yasong."

It was Murong Ya who came, he rolled his eyes and the yamen guard beside him had already opened the cell door.

"My lord, you have some time to burn incense." With the same words, Murong Ya nodded and bowed into the prison door.

He looked around and put the food box on the table.

"This place is nice, quiet and quiet."

Cang Qiao looked at him, "Are you going to move in?"

Murong Ya lifted her robe and sat down, and said without answering, "Fang Xing is gone."

Cang Qiao didn't seem surprised, opened the food box to look, and pursed his mouth, "There are no grilled chicken wings."

Murong Ya glared at him, Cang Qiao shrugged and sat down, "What's so special about this? Once the goal is achieved, naturally I won't be a living target again."

"You know?" Murong Ya looked at him, "Then do you know who he is?"

"Those who are interested in me have only heard of Hanyue Palace and Orchid Pie."

Murong Ya also picked up a few peanuts and threw them into her mouth, "The titan has left the city to help inquire about the Hanyue Palace."

"What about you?" Cang Qiao looked at him with a smile, "You're not just here to bring me food, are you?"

"Since you guessed that I would come, couldn't you guess why I came?"

"There are three situations." Cang Qiao held up three fingers, and Murong Ya nodded with a look of listening attentively.

"First! Send food!"

Murong Ya rolled her eyes.

"Second! Look at my embarrassment!"

Murong Ya was delighted, "It's quite serious."

"Third..." Cang Qiao raised the corners of her lips, "This morning, the emperor asked you to take over and thoroughly investigate this matter."

Murong Ya raised her brows, "It's a good guess, but it's just a little bit off."

"Oh?"

"It is the Ninth Prince who made the suggestion, and the Emperor is just pushing the boat along."

Cang Qiao rubbed his chin, "Speaking of which, I have never been able to understand Sikong Shen. What exactly does he want?"

Murong Ya looked at him, "Can the Ninth Prince's name be called whatever you want?"

Cang Qiao smiled, "Heaven knows and the earth knows you and I know."

Murong Ya shook her head, "Tomorrow we will have a retrial, do you think Fang Xing will show up?"

Cang Qiao shook her head, "I don't know."

Murong Ya was surprised, "You don't know?"

"Because there is a possibility." Cang Qiao said quietly: "Do you know when Fang Xing disappeared?"

Murong Ya was taken aback, "I don't know."

"Then what did he do, do you know?"

Murong Ya frowned, "You mean, what did he do while you were away?"

Cang Qiao shook her head, "Is there any major festival or event in the capital recently?"

"No." Murong Ya thought about it carefully, "There is only the scientific examination three days later."

Cang Qiao paused, and something suddenly flashed through his mind.He looked at Murong Ya, hesitant to speak.Murong Ya was baffled by him, and asked: "What's wrong?"

Cang Qiao was silent for a while, but finally said: "No, it's nothing."

While the two were talking, another person came outside.Cang Qiao raised her head and was not surprised to see Xia Yunqing standing outside the cell door.In fact, Xia Yunqing came much later than he had calculated. Originally, he thought that this kid would come in the morning, but he didn't expect it to be after noon.

I feel a little upset.

The yamen servant opened the cell door, as the old saying goes.Xia Yunqing thanked her and got into the door, looking around, it seemed that it was not the same as the deserted and damp as imagined, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Cang Qiao saw that his eyes were calm and tired, and the previous unhappiness disappeared.In fact, you don't need to think about it, you will know that this honest brother must have stayed up all night, and he must be running around for his own affairs during the day.Displeasure turned into guilt again, he stood up and tugged on La Xia Yunqing's sleeve, "You don't need to fight so hard."

Xia Yunqing raised the corners of her mouth, smiled briefly, and then said calmly, "Fang Xing is from the Cold Moon Palace."

This actually finalized the choice in Cang Qiao's heart, he frowned, "How do you know?"

Xia Yunqing said: "He told me himself."

Cang Qiao was taken aback for a moment, then grabbed Xia Yunqing's shoulder and looked him up and down, "Did he take advantage of you?"

Murong Ya was a little puzzled, "Fang Xing took advantage of Yunqing? How is it possible?"

Cang Qiao said viciously: "Of course it is possible!"

Xia Yunqing was not good at talking nonsense, and her face was a little embarrassed when she heard this.How clever Cang Qiao is, you can see it at a glance.He jumped angrily and almost flipped the dining table.

"Dare to belittle my younger brother! Kill him!"

Xia Yunqing held back the furious man, but she couldn't hide a smile in her eyes, "I'll pay back and go back, it doesn't matter."

Cang Qiao suddenly realized, "Oh, that's good...you bastard!" Cang Qiao pinched Xia Yunqing's cheek and twisted hard, "What are you repaying? Ah? What are you repaying?!"

Murong Ya couldn't help shaking her head, "You're still in good spirits." He yawned as he spoke, "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

As he said that, he walked out of the prison door, thinking about letting the two brothers get together.
