After accidentally having a cub with the prince of the enemy country

Chen Qi followed the steward and entered Duan Hou's mansion.

Today, he has braved the cold wind and waited for a day outside this magnificent mansion.

Although the gate of Duanhou's mansion is high, the layout of the mansion is elegant. Through those pavilions, one can vaguely see the master's taste. Along the way, no matter the servants and guards, they all walked silently, obviously the rules are extremely strict.

The steward directly led Chen Qi to the front of the main hall, and said, "Master Hou is waiting for you inside."

Chen Qi looked up and saw the words "Juyingtang" written on the plaque.

Juying Hall is the place where Duan Hou discusses his affairs on a daily basis, and those who come in and out every day are all important officials in the court of Qi State.Chen Qi had learned about these details in advance from his old friend.

In any case, the first step was successfully taken.

Chen Qi thanked the steward, straightened his robe sleeves that were messed up by the wind, and went into the hall.

The hall was brightly lit like daylight, and Duan Hou was dressed in luxurious black clothes in front of the independent lamp stand, with half of his face hidden in the dimness, and the gold silk pattern on the cuffs gleamed glaringly under the candlelight.

Chen Qi only had a quick glance, and felt a cold deterrent force.

It is rare for him to see a person who can have such a cold and breath-taking aura like the snow on a high mountain or the moon in the nine-day sky.

Duan Hou Duan Xiyue is not only a high-ranking Duan Hou in Qi State, but also a master of contemporary music.

Two completely different identities are perfectly integrated in the same person.

"Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" created by him when he was young is still regarded as a treasure by countless music masters, and he studies it every day, and some people even go crazy because they are addicted to this song.

However, it was this pair of hands playing the qin that entered the capital of Qi and was appreciated by the king of Qi. With the help of thunder, they beheaded a large number of nobles of Qi capital, and their hands were covered with the blood of the nobles of Qi capital.

When the nobles of Qidu mentioned Duan Xiyue's name, they were as afraid and fearful as if they saw the evil ghost of Shura.

Chen Qi traveled all the way and purposely inquired about the deeds of this Marquis Duan, knowing that the other party is a very cunning and ruthless person, even the Prime Minister Tian Yu would be in awe of him, not daring to hold the slightest contempt in his heart However, rumors are rumors after all, and it was not until now that he actually stood in this Juying Hall, in front of this high-ranking Marquis Duan, that Chen Qi truly understood the fear of the nobles in Qidu.

Chen Qi did not dare to look up at the other party, but made a big gift first.

Duan Hou held his sleeves behind him, and said flatly: "Chen Qi, the second son of Chen Guo, is now serving as the right Sima in the Sui Kingdom."

"You came all the way to Qidu just to tell this Marquis about the secret of Prince Jiang's life experience?"

"What secret do you have?"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Qi felt as if there was an invisible cold blade across his neck.

Chen Qi had no way out, and knelt down directly.

Seriously said: "To tell you the truth, I am no longer serving in Sui State. This time, I came to Qidu to serve under the command of Lord Hou and serve Qi State."

"It is true that I have unintentionally grasped an important secret about Prince Jiang's life experience. As long as this secret is made public, Prince Jiang will be ruined."

"Your Majesty and the King can destroy Jiang Guo without a single soldier."

Duan Hou asked: "Have you lost your reputation?"

"Yes."

Before entering Duanhou's mansion, Chen Qi was still unsure about Duanhou's attitude towards Jiang, but this time when Jiang and Sui fought, Qi did not remain neutral, but sent troops to help Sui attack Jiang. The country is actually equivalent to an indirect enmity.And the secret in his hands can just become an important tool for Qi State to attack Jiang State.

But today Duan Houken met him late at night, and it was really because of that secret.

Chen Qi became more confident.

Dao: "This secret involves both Jiang and Qi."

"It can even be proved that Jiang Rongyu, the current prince of the Jiang Kingdom, is not the real Jiang Rongyu at all, but someone else pretending to be."

"The real prince of Jiang Guo probably died five years ago."

This statement is too surprising.

The hall fell into dead silence, the cold wind came through the hall, and a candle near the door shook violently and was almost extinguished.

Chen Qi knelt on the ground and heard footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of black clothes embroidered with silver thread appeared in his eyes.

"Looked up."

Humane above.

The tone is not high, but not angry.

Chen Qi raised his head according to his words, saw the face of the person above him clearly, and was slightly taken aback.

It was a very tall and handsome man, dressed in luxurious black clothes, the cuffs and the hem of the clothes were embroidered with orchid patterns with gold and silver threads, and the gold and silver were intertwined, just like his noble demeanor.

It is rare for Chen Qi to see a person of high position and authority, who can still have this kind of demeanor.

Duan Hou asked: "Do you know what crime it is to speak falsely about the blood of a prince of a great country?"

There seems to be a blizzard weighing down on the top of the head.

A wisp of sweat dripped from the corner of Chen Qi's forehead.

Withstood the immense pressure, he said: "I am not talking nonsense, but have solid evidence."

Duan Hou's gaze was still, as if frozen.

Chen Qi quickly took out a letter from his bosom, and presented it with both hands: "This is written by Zheng Xian, the late Jiang country official, before his death. It provides important evidence of the blood shame of the prince of Jiang country. Please check it out."

It was a letter with a yellowed skin, full of stale atmosphere, and the cover was blank with no words.

Duan Hou was silent, took the letter, and read it.

Chen Qi said: "According to what is said in the letter, when the prince of Jiang Kingdom was 11 years old, he followed the Emperor Jiang into the mountains to hunt and encountered an assassin. The Emperor Jiang favored the King of Chu. When the assassin attacked, he concentrated all his forces to rescue the King of Chu. The prince of Jiang country was kidnapped by assassins and disappeared for three years. In the past three years, Emperor Jiang announced that the prince was sick. In fact, the prince of Jiang country was not in the palace at all, but——he entered Qingque Terrace! Zheng Xianti It turned out that he was in the Jiang Palace, and accidentally saw that there was a seal with the word slave on the back waist of the Prince of Jiang, which was a mark that only Lord Qingquetai Kun had."

"There are only two possibilities for this matter, either, the prince of Jiang country who returned to Jiang country three years later was a counterfeit of Qingquetai Kunjun, or the prince of Jiangguo really entered Qingquetai and became Lord Kun, and once He was trained as a child molestor for three years."

"No matter which one it is, the identity of Jiang Rongyu and Qingquetai Kunjun is beyond doubt."

After Chen Qi finished his statement, Duan Hou also finished reading the letter.

Duan Hou's figure swayed slightly, and the hand holding the letter trembled almost imperceptibly.

He didn't show his face, and asked, "Are you sure about the contents of the letter?"

"It's true, it's absolutely true."

Duan Hou went to the desk and raised his hand.

Several armored soldiers rushed in quickly and took Chen Qi into custody.

Chen Qi was shocked and said in puzzlement, "Why is Hou Ye like this!"

Duan Hou turned his back to him, held the letter, and said in a bone-chilling voice, "You know, this letter alone is enough for this Marquis to cut you into pieces."

Chen Qi was taken aback.

There was a buzzing in my head, and I didn't understand where things went wrong.

Such a big mystery, why did Duan Hou react in such a way when he saw it?Could it be that there is any entanglement in it that he doesn't know about?Could it be that Qi State has secretly formed an alliance with Jiang State?

Chen Qi finally showed panic.

"Lord Hou—"

"Press it down."

The guards of Duanhou Mansion did not give Chen Qi another chance to speak.

The old servant had been guarding the corridor anxiously, and when he saw Chen Qi being dragged out, he rushed into the hall immediately, saw Duan Hou standing there supporting the case, with an obviously strange figure, and worriedly asked, "What's wrong, Lord Hou?"

As the old servant approached, he saw a large mouthful of black blood splattered on the light blue brocade-covered surface.

Duan Hou's face was pale, and the fingers supporting the case were pale.

The old servant was shocked: "Master Hou!"

Duan Hou closed his eyes, his face was as white as the frost of the cold night, and he said: "In my life, Duan Xiyue, I have no shame in heaven, earth, and Linguo. , is God’s greatest punishment to me.”

The old servant saw the letter that Duan Hou could barely hold in his palm.

He took it, and after looking at it, his face suddenly changed, and he couldn't believe it: "Impossible, how is this possible..."

He suddenly thought of something.

"Five years ago, five years ago, was it that time, how could it be possible."

Duan Hou opened his eyes and looked at him sharply: "Which time?"

The old servant knelt down, choked with sobs and said, "It was five years ago that several counties on the edge of the capital suffered from a famine, and many refugees flooded into Qidu. Lord Hou took the young master together and set up a porridge shed in the city to give porridge to the refugees. , One evening, the old slave, the old slave saw the child among the refugees queuing up."

"That child is so similar to Lord Hou when he was young. Old slave, this old slave thought that he had found Qidu and wanted to recognize him. Master Hou managed to establish a foothold in Qidu with great difficulty. After living a stable life and forgetting those painful past events, this old servant was worried that his arrival would bring danger to Lord Hou, so he kept this matter a secret."

"The old slave really doesn't know that he escaped from that place. If the old slave knew, he would definitely not hide it from Lord Hou and make decisions privately..."

The old servant burst into tears and choked up.

"This is all the old slave's fault."

"I'm sorry, Master Hou."

Duan Hou was startled.

"You are confused! You are extremely confused!"

"No matter how good you are for Ben Hou, you can't, you shouldn't treat him like that."

"But it's just your fault."

Duan Hou laughed, the desolate laughter echoed in the empty hall.

"This Marquis implements the order of balance, judges the law, and distinguishes right from wrong. How can I not even be able to distinguish right from wrong."

"You have made a mistake, and the source of the mistake lies with this Marquis after all."

Duan Hou's chest throbbed with pain, and he spit out a second mouthful of blood.

The old servant turned pale with fright, hurriedly supported Duan Hou, and wanted to call the medical officer.Duan Hou raised his hand to stop him, and said: "Let Duan Qi come here."

**

Muyunguan was also in a hurry.

Liu Gong stood anxiously on the side, watching Meng Hui's pulse, and kept asking: "How is your Majesty?"

Since last night, the Crown Prince of the Sui Kingdom came over and talked with His Majesty in the room for less than a moment, His Majesty was stimulated by the other party, so he vomited blood and fell into a coma, and he still hasn't woken up.

After Meng Hui checked his pulse, he said that he was angry.

As for the source of this anger, no one knows except the arrogant Sui Crown Prince.

Meng Hui withdrew his hand and said, "I'll prescribe two more prescriptions, and I'll pour it into His Majesty every other hour tonight."

Mr. Liu should be.

At this time, the palace man said outside: "His Royal Highness."

Dressed in a golden shirt, Jiang Yun walked in and asked, "How is Father?"

Liu Gong said the situation.

Jiang Yun stood by the bed, looking at the bed tent, Jiang Di's comatose face still struggling with pain, after a while, he said, "Just do what Doctor Meng said."

"Yes."

Liu Gong hurriedly went to tell the palace people.

Jiang Yun didn't stay in the room for long, returned to the palace room where he lived, and waited until midnight, but still saw no movement outside the curtain, thinking deeply.

Jiang Yun called Gongsun Yang to come in, and said: "Go to the Sui army camp across the street, find General Xu Qiao, and just say, I have something important to see him."

Gongsun Yang suspected that he heard it wrong: "Xu Qiao?"

"Just go straight there, he will understand what Gu means."

Gongsun Yang didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he took the order to retreat.

The night was so dark that you could hardly see your fingers. Around this day, a cavalry soldier who was lying around at night also secretly arrived at Yongcheng on the border of Qi State.

These cavalry unified Qi Bing Bing Jia.

The guards of Yongcheng were very confused. During the day, they did not monitor any troops approaching. Where did this cavalry come from?

"It's us."

A leading general drove forward and showed the token in his hand.

The guard saw the person's face clearly, and was a little surprised: "General Tian Ying?"

"Ah."

Tian Ying sullenly said, "Now that the North and the South are talking about peace, the Sui Kingdom does not need reinforcements. Tian Ye and I will lead the troops back and return to the king."

The guard didn't know the situation of the battle at Muyun Pass, but he knew that the king asked two generals, Tian Ye and Tian Ying, to bring [-] elite troops to aid the Sui Kingdom.

Now the number of this cavalry is about three thousand, and Tian Ying has a clearance token in his hand.Tian Ying is the nephew of Prime Minister Tian Que. The guard dared not offend him. After asking a few routine questions, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to open the city gate and let him go.

Three thousand cavalrymen swaggered into the border of Qi State.

After entering the pass, the guards came down to greet him, the scimitar across Tian Ying's neck was moved away, and it quietly touched the back of his heart.

Tian Ying didn't dare to act rashly, so he casually said a few words to the guard, and said that he was in a hurry and didn't stay in the pass, but went directly to the direction of Qidu.

The guard smiled and agreed, and when the group had gone far away, Fang wondered: "It's really strange, this Tian Ying is always proud because he is Tian Xiang's nephew, why is he always sweating when talking to me today?"

The confidant said: "I heard that these two people originally hoped to take advantage of the Sui Kingdom to attack Muyunguan and come back with great achievements. Now that the two countries have suddenly ceased war and negotiated a peace, the credit cannot be reaped. He came back after a white walk. He is naturally guilty. .”

The guard sneered and didn't think much about it. After ordering to close the city gate, he went to sleep in the guard's room, but when it was almost dawn, he was woken up again by his confidants.

"what happened?"

The confidant said anxiously: "It's not good, general, a Sui cavalry came to the pass, claiming that there were traitors of the Sui state, and fled to the Qi state. They want us to open the city gate and search inside the pass."

The guard frowned: "Without proof or certificate, how can I let the Sui soldiers enter the city casually? Who is it?"

The confidant said: "The other party claims that he is under the command of the crown prince of the Sui Kingdom, the general of the Qinglang Camp, Yang Yang."

"Blue Wolf Camp?"

The guard looked dignified again.

This is the direct descendant of the Crown Prince of Sui, so it is not easy to offend.

He pondered for a moment, and said: "Tell them, to find someone, they need a pass token. Let them try to negotiate with Prime Minister Tian or Duan Hou first. I can't be such a big master."

After receiving the message from Gongsun Yang, Xu Qiao bit the bullet and came to see Mu Yunguan and Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun invited him to drink tea, Xu Qiao didn't think about how to speak, but heard the young prince on the opposite side saying: "He went to fight Qi?"

Xu Qiao took a sip of tea and almost didn't spit it out.

Coughing twice, he tried to maintain his composure and said, "No, it's nothing, the little emperor's antlers are not enough. His Highness heard that a white elk appeared in a mountain outside the pass recently, so he took people to hunt for the little emperor's antlers. "

Jiang Yun said: "You don't have to lie to Gu, everyone already knows."

Xu Qiao could only put down the tea bowl with a guilty conscience.

"Your Highness is also afraid of Rong and Your Highness is worried..."

Jiang Yun took a deep breath: "Is he really going to fight Qi?"

Xu Qiao was taken aback.

"You just—"

Xu Qiao stopped abruptly, only then did he realize that he had been fooled, and immediately patted his head in frustration.

Jiang Yun got up and looked out the window at the twilight. After a while, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth and said, "This lunatic!"
