"Ah!" Princess Dehui screamed, threw the head in her hand, and fell to the ground.
But even so, the blood on his hands still couldn't be wiped clean.
It’s not like Weng Dehui has never killed anyone. The harem of King Liang is not a kind place. There are intrigues and frame-ups. Over the past twenty years, she has taken more than one or two lives in her hands.
But those were all clandestine methods, and nothing so bloody, with flesh and blood separated, had ever been placed in front of her.
Especially that one who is her backer and her hope for prosperity and wealth for the rest of her life.
After being stunned for a moment, Lord Dehui finally realized what happened: "Your Majesty... how is this possible..."
She suddenly turned around and looked around, but she saw that the banquet was arranged on the left and right, and the envoys from various states were sitting neatly, as if nothing had happened. The person sitting on the main seat should be the little girl.
Princess Dehui turned around and looked again. On both sides of the throne, the guards of King Liang were standing with swords in their hands, looking upright and solemn as usual.
But this is abnormal! How could Prince Liang’s guards allow that girl to sit on the throne!
"Du Ming!" She pointed at the leader of the guards, her eyes seemed to be spitting fire, "You betrayed the king!"
Otherwise, how could this girl named Xu be able to kill someone!
The leader of the guards glanced at her, lowered his head and said nothing.
On the throne, Xu Yin took the wet handkerchief handed by the maid, slowly wiped the blood on his hands, and said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, General Du did not betray your siblings. It was Wu Zijing who killed the queen and lost his master.
Surrender to me."
Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Tian Zhi for her information. In order to please her and obtain the antidote for the poisonous insects, he shook everyone around Wu Zijing to pieces.
There are three important people around Wu Zijing. The first is Lady Dehui, without whom Wu Zijing would not be able to enter Da Liang. The second is Du Ming. He is Wu Zijing's personal general and once served in the army.
He was framed by Shang Feng and fled.
This experience sounds the same as Wu Zijing's. The difference is that Wu Zijing's experience was caused by his failure to fight for power, and he had actually done evil things. Although the conviction was a false accusation, it was not unjust. Du Ming's experience was caused by his wife being coveted.
Disaster, I have never done anything illegal.
Because of the same experience, Wu Zijing recruited Du Ming. But he was suspicious and didn't trust anyone, so their friendship was limited. Du Ming also had nowhere to go, so he stayed by his side.
When Xu Yin asked him if he wanted to return to the Central Plains, Du Ming hesitated.
Xu Yin said: "General Du, if you never return to the Central Plains for the rest of your life, or continue to defend Wu Zijing for evil, then the charges in your early years will not be cleared. Presumably the commander who framed you back then will be so happy that he can't sleep. Look,
Just say that there is something wrong with this guy, and now he has become a traitor."
Hearing these words, Du Ming's hands began to shake. Since entering the Great Liang, Wu Zijing always thought that the two people had similar experiences and would say some words of resentment and revenge to him, but that was not what Du Ming thought at all.
He doesn't want to seize any throne, create any foundation, and he doesn't want to return to the Central Plains to take revenge on those people back then. If he did this, wouldn't it just verify Shangfeng's frame-up?
He wanted to clear his name, return to his hometown in a dignified manner, and let those people know that he had done no evil. But what could he do? There was no one to help him, and there was nothing he could do.
After so many years, he originally thought that he would continue to fight and kill in a muddle-headed way for the rest of his life, but he didn't expect to hear such words from others.
"How can you help me?" he asked hoarsely.
Xu Yin smiled. She always felt that the name Du Ming was familiar, but later she remembered that he had defected to Dongjiang in his previous life. Unfortunately, the King of Dongjiang still failed him and made him die there.
This time he is lucky, so he can help him if he encounters him.
"This matter is difficult for Wu Zijing, but it is not difficult for my father. Today Wu Zijing died, and you have made great contributions to suppressing the rebellion. When the time is right, and you stand in front of the world, you can retrieve the files and re-trial. Although my father is just
He is a governor, but his reputation is well known to everyone, so you can consider whether to trust him."
Du Ming's eyes moved slightly. Xu Huan, the governor of Nanyuan, was not an unknown person. Looking at these people, they all expected Nanyuan to take the lead against Wu Zijing, and you knew how popular he was.
If it were him, it would really be possible...
Du Ming was finally convinced.
If Wu Zijing had not died, he would probably not have rebelled because of the kindness of taking him in. But after Wu Zijing died, and the love was not that great, Xu Yin agreed to rehabilitate him, and Du Ming really had no reason not to agree - he
He was not willing to be a traitor general, he always wanted to return to the Central Plains.
However, Lord Deokhye didn’t want to understand the whole story, nor did she believe it at all.
If Du Ming didn't betray, how could this girl kill someone?
But Xu Yin didn't want to discuss this issue with her. Wu Zijing was dead, and now that Dehui was in charge, Great Liang had nothing to fear.
She waved her hand and said in a casual tone: "The chief culprit Wu Zijing has been executed. Lord Dehui, do you admit your guilt?"
The glory and wealth she had spent in the rest of her life were shattered like this. Princess Deok-hye hated her to the core at this moment, but she was not so afraid anymore and replied coldly: "What crime am I guilty of?"
Xu Yin said: "As a concubine of the King of Liang, you led a wolf into the house and helped others seize the throne of Daliang. This is against the will of the great ancestor. The royal family of Daliang was almost slaughtered by your brothers and sisters. You can't escape the charge of indiscriminate killing."
Won’t you drop it?”
Lord Dehui snorted coldly, with the utmost disdain: "Succeed as king and lose as bandit, that's all. What's more, it's not your turn to judge me. Your father is just a governor, how can he be qualified to take care of the affairs of Great Liang."
Xu Yin smiled: "If you don't leave Da Liang, of course we can't care about you, but who told you to insist on seizing Yongcheng? Don't forget the late emperor's order of diligence."
Princess Dehui was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered.
King Qin's order! Twenty years ago, the Green Forest Army caused trouble and almost occupied the capital. The late emperor issued the King's order Qin for this purpose, ordering all localities to recruit troops to serve the king. Since then, the local troops have respected themselves, and the imperial court has been unable to control them.
——These are all old things. In short, King Qin’s order clearly states that bandits are a disaster and the state governments can eliminate them on their own. They sent troops to occupy Yongcheng without any reason. They are bandits and they should be eliminated.
Xu Yin no longer wanted to talk to her, so he turned around and ordered: "The Wu family killed the Daliang royal family and led the bandits to capture Yongcheng. The crime should be punished and killed!"
Princess Dehui didn't expect that she would kill her immediately. When she saw Du Ming walking in front of her in response, she couldn't help but move back and shouted: "Du Ming! Since you didn't betray the king, why did you do this to me?"
knife?"
Du Ming said calmly: "My lord, I'm overthinking this. Your Majesty still cares about me. What's your relationship with me?"
Princess Deokhye was shocked: "You, you can't...ah!"
After the screams, another fresh human head was placed on the case.
There was silence in the hall.
Wu Zijing is dead and Weng Dehui was tricked and killed. This crisis has been solved and they no longer have to worry about being coerced.
But looking at the young girl admiring the head in the main seat, the envoys couldn't help but shudder in their hearts.
Wu Zijing is gone, but what about the Xu family? Will they also be asked to surrender?
Xu Huan's daughter is so fierce! How can such a little girl be so cruel?
