Chapter 77 Begging for mercy(1/2)

When Tuxlo's saber was pressed against King Qi's throat, King Qi's expression suddenly changed from triumphant to horrified, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead and he was at a loss.

The guards who were about to take action opened their mouths wide when they saw this scene, and hurriedly raised their weapons and shouted loudly.

"Jiang Mingyu, you traitor, let go of His Highness King Qi."

"We have surrounded you. If you don't let them go, you will die."

"Why are you still standing there? Let him go quickly."

"..."

Seeing this, hundreds of soldiers from the city defense camp who finally came to their senses quickly drew out their swords from their waists, raised them in the air, and glared: "You still won't put down your weapons?"

Jiang Mingyu smiled calmly and joked to King Qi, who had a pale face: "Your Highness, your ability to train your men is really good. In the blink of an eye, I turned from an imperial envoy to a rebel. This script writer

It’s really wonderful."

After a brief period of nervousness, King Qi also regained some consciousness: "Script? What are you talking nonsense about, Jiang Mingyu, don't be so arrogant."

"You are so blatantly coercing me, and you still say that you are not a rebel? Haha, how ridiculous!?"

"You have also seen that brothers share the same hatred. Even if you kill me, you will not be able to leave alive."

"If we don't put down our weapons, then we'll wait until later. Once all the brothers attack together, they will all be destroyed."

Having said this, King Qi's eyes revealed a hint of murderous intent, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

Jiang Mingyu sneered and said: "Your Highness, King Qi, I can't help but admire your ability to be calm and adaptable. You really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve!"

King Qi also sneered and retorted: "A spy who collaborates with the enemy and treason has the nerve to say sarcastic words? Kneel down and be bound as soon as you know the truth. I can show my noble hand and let you die quickly!"

"If you dare to be so unscrupulous again, I will let you know that even thinking about death is a luxury."

Jiang Mingyu glanced indifferently at the hundreds of swords in front of him that reflected the cold light, and said with a smile: "Brothers from the city defense camp, do you still remember that the Japanese military pay was withheld some time ago?"

"That was all done by your Highness, Prince Qi. He put the silver you worked so hard for, and even the pensions of your fallen comrades, into his own pocket. Do you know this?"

"The evidence is here, you can take a look at it."

After speaking, he took out an account book he had prepared from his arms and threw it in front of the soldiers.

The account book was quickly picked up, and the face turning over the account book slowly changed color.

Jiang Mingyu continued: "Not only that, he also relied on false reports of military numbers to take advantage of the imperial court's free pay, and used the name of your fallen comrades to seek personal gain for himself. Do you know these?"

"The military pay I just sent is sitting in the hall. You will know what is going on when you take a look."

Seeing that what he said was reasonable and well-founded, the sergeants became quiet, and King Qi's face suddenly turned ashen.

Jiang Mingyu didn't mean to finish his sentence: "It is even more nonsense to say that I am having an affair with a foreigner."

"After killing so many foreigners, they have already hated our county. If we have an affair with them, it would be better for our county to just commit suicide."

As soon as he finished speaking, several sergeants who were flipping through the account books immediately asked loudly.

"Your Highness King Qi, is this true?"

"Why is this so unreasonable? This is the only thing? It must have been done by Madefak, and I have no idea about it!"

"As a prince, do I still need to embezzle your military salary? This is simply ridiculous!"

When the King of Qi saw this, he immediately put the blame on the dead Madefak, claiming that he was dead without evidence.

"He embezzled the military pay we exchanged for his life, but he is still not a human being. We have to dig up his grave. Such a heartless person cannot give him the whole body."

"Yes, His Highness King Qi, you single-handedly promoted him, you must give us an explanation!"

"..."

Hundreds of pairs of eyes gushing with hatred and murderous intent made King Qi, who was covered in cold sweat, understand that he had to give an explanation to the vast number of border soldiers, otherwise it might cause a military rebellion! Even if he was a relative of the emperor,

You may not be able to save your own life.

"Don't worry, I...I will definitely give you an explanation!" King Qi said tremblingly.

But there were hundreds of thousands of grass and mud horses galloping in his heart, and he didn't know how to explain it, so he had no choice but to turn to Jiang Mingyu for help, hoping that he would let him go.

"Mr. Jiang, I am a relative of the emperor. You cannot kill me. Please let me go first. I have something to say to you."

Jiang Mingyu was silent for a moment and said: "Tukesluo, please let King Qi go first."

After Tuxlow listened to the order, he slowly lowered the saber in his hand from King Qi's neck.

King Qi walked up to Jiang Mingyu and whispered in a low voice: "Master Jiang, I admit my defeat. Only you can help me now. If you help me, I promise that today's matter will be forgotten, and I will never have anything to do with you in the future."

Difficult."

"Your Highness had known this, why did he do it in the first place?"

"Master Jiang, I beg you, if I ask you to stay here, it will definitely cause a mutiny. When the time comes, foreigners will invade if they know about it. When the time comes, there will be no leader, and everyone will be in ruins. This is not what you want to see!"

Jiang Mingyu thought about it and realized that indeed, if something happened to King Qi, it would be hard for him to explain it. When the border is in chaos, the entire Dafeng people would be implicated.

"Your Highness, it's not impossible to ask your subordinates to help you, but..."

"But what, whatever request you have, I will agree to it."

"Okay, in that case, I will reluctantly help you once. Then, wait, whatever I say, His Highness King Qi, you must nod and agree."

"Okay, it's a deal." King Qi knew that the matter had come to this, so he could only grit his teeth and nod in agreement.

"Brothers from the city defense camp, please be patient. Please listen to what I have to say. I know something about this matter. It should be that Madefak had filled his own pockets and embezzled the military salaries of the soldiers. The King of Qi should not be involved.

Affection."

"I have just discussed with His Highness the King of Qi that Madefak had embezzled military pay. His Highness the King of Qi said that in order to find out in time, His Highness the King of Qi was at fault. His Highness the King of Qi will make up for the military pay owed and distribute it to the soldiers.

They."

"In addition, His Royal Highness the King of Qi also said that I will temporarily act as the military affairs officer of the city defense camp. I guarantee that the subsequent payment of salary will be open and transparent, and this situation will never happen again."

After Jiang Mingyu finished speaking, the officers and soldiers suddenly became speechless. You looked at me, and I looked at you in disbelief.

"Your Highness, is this true?" the third son asked tremblingly. He really couldn't believe that King Qi would compromise, and that the position of captain he had just obtained would now be handed over to others.

King Qi was already gnashing his teeth in his heart. Jiang Mingyu had allowed him to rob him of money again and lost part of his military power. But now that he was riding a tiger, he could only nod his head and said.

"Yes, everything will be done as Mr. Jiang said."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" After hearing King Qi's promise, all the soldiers were very happy.

At this time, Jiang Mingyu waved his hand and said: "Tuxuo Luo, salary silver..."

After stabilizing the city defense camp and making relevant arrangements, Jiang Mingyu returned to the city and continued to supervise the construction of houses.

Tukesluo also rushed to Qinglong Village, and then taught the people kung fu and riding skills, and everything returned to peace.

At night, the entire Shangmu County fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, the man with a mustache and a bamboo pole in the inn was also dressed for the night and was ready.

The two looked at each other silently, and the man with the bamboo pole said solemnly: "Let's go, we will kill Jiang Mingyu tonight."

The two of them had already figured out the terrain of Shangmu County during the day, and soon arrived in front of the county government office.

Just as the two were about to climb over the wall, another thin man in black suddenly appeared.

The man looked around quietly and saw that there was no movement, then he climbed over the wall very lightly.

The mustache hiding in the dark was startled, and his voice was very low: "What's going on? He is also coming towards Jiang Mingyu?"

But the man with the bamboo pole shook his head: "Looking at this man's movements, he looks like an ordinary thief. He may be here to steal."

The mustache was a little confused: "Then what should we do?"

The man with the bamboo pole facing the cold wind thought for a while: "The situation has changed, let's wait first."

"If this person alarms Jiang Mingyu, we will be in trouble if we rush in."

"When this person comes out, we will capture him first and find out what's going on inside before we take action."

The mustache didn't say anything else, he just folded his clothes and nodded silently.

The thin man in black, obviously very familiar with the layout of the county government office, climbed over the wall and went straight to the bedroom.

Looking at the empty bedroom, the man in black looked around, and finally the thin man in black smiled: "It's you."

"As long as I take you back, I will definitely be rewarded heavily. With the money, I will be happy for a while."

This person was sent by the third son. Jiang Mingyu took away his power as captain. He held a grudge. King Qi had promised Jiang Mingyu that he would not touch him, but that did not mean that the third son did not dare.

The imperial envoy lost the token given by the emperor. What kind of crime is this? As a person, he knows that once discovered, Jiang Mingyu will only die.

As long as Jiang Mingyu dies, the mistress will have the confidence to get back everything she has lost.

The man in black who took the token didn't stay any longer and went back the way he came and climbed over the wall.

But as soon as his feet landed, a cold dagger pressed against the back of his neck: "Don't move."

The sudden change almost made the thin man in black almost pee in fear. He said tremblingly: "I won't move, and you don't move either."

"You two also came to the county government office to make a fortune, so we can be considered fellow-minded. Don't you want to take advantage of others?"

The bamboo pole man smiled kindly: "Don't be nervous, we are not interested in your things. How is the situation inside?"
