Bai Yujing squinted his eyes slightly. He specially disguised himself as Xiao Junlan. He knew that he would gain something today. Unexpectedly, this harvest was really amazing.
Liu Chengyu obviously didn't realize that the person in front of him was not a wise king. Instead, he felt that he was weighing the chips in his hand.
"When General Xia was leading the army in battle, I happened to be hiding in Songshan Ridge and bumped into him accidentally. The military situation was urgent at that time, so he specially handed over a secret letter asking for help to me."
Liu Chengyu seemed to want the person opposite to clearly remember what happened at that time, so he talked to himself.
"I opened the secret letter. It turned out that General Xia discovered that someone was planting poisonous weeds in Songshan Ridge. He realized that something was wrong, so he planned to report it to the court and ask the emperor to send someone to investigate thoroughly. As a result, Cheng Yu was killed by the prince before he could send the letter. Someone stopped me."
It was at that time that he met the wise princess Cen Yurong.
Later, he learned that not long after he left, General Xia was ambushed, and the letter asking for help never saw the light of day again.
But King Xian and Princess Xian must have never imagined that Liu Chengyu had something to offer.
He just gave them one of the letters given by General Xia, which only recorded the poisonous weed incident, while he kept the other one, which revealed that there was a traitor in the army and that he was colluding with the enemy.
"General Xia must be surprised how his son-in-law, who was supposed to die in battle, could appear in that place." Bai Yujing said in a teasing tone. He had already guessed what would happen next.
In order to win over Liu Chengyu, Cen Yurong casually fabricated a military exploit for him, making him a brave and resourceful hero instead of a deserter.
This allowed Liu Chengyu to return to Beijing openly and without having to worry about being intimidated every day.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to laugh at Cheng Yu, we are in the same boat."
"You think too highly of yourself. You are the one who withheld General Xia's secret letter. What does this have to do with me? You said that I planted poisonous weeds to create epidemics. You want to convict me of this crime based on these thin black and white words. It is too hasty! "
deny?
"Okay, so the prince used the epidemic to ask the government to allocate grain, but in the end he colluded with the local government to secretly store grain and grass. Can the prince be convicted?"
"..." Unexpectedly, Liu Chengyu knew quite a lot.
Seeing that the man opposite him was silent again, Liu Chengyu had long known that the other man would not submit obediently, but he also believed that the wise king would not let his plan go wrong because of such a small role.
"Cheng Yu has a small life, but is the prince willing to risk his great career?"
He took out the letter from his sleeve, but only half of it was said, "The other half is hidden by me in a safe place. As long as the prince agrees to Cheng Yu's conditions, Cheng Yu can guarantee that this thing will never appear in front of others." .”
Bai Yujing read the contents of the letter and already understood the truth of that year.
General Xia entrusted him to an unworthy person, but perhaps he also wanted Liu Chengyu to be able to offset his merits.
"You are so courageous. Aren't you afraid that I will kill someone and silence you?"
"Cheng Yu's current situation means he can only make dangerous moves." Otherwise, he wouldn't have to wait until now to take out this thing. "My lord, have you thought it through?"
Unexpectedly, Bai Yujing suddenly tore these letters in half. Liu Chengyu was shocked. Before he could react, he received a slap on his chest!
"you……"
The severe pain instantly made him fall to the ground in embarrassment, but the man in front of him had a strange expression, and even his voice changed, "Do you think Xiao Junlan can believe this kind of forged letter?"
What? !
Liu Chengyu was horrified, "Aren't you a wise king?"
"Your handwriting is indeed very good, and you are careful, but you are still too stupid." The handwriting can be imitated, but the watermark on the secret letter cannot be imitated.
The more important the matter, all secret letters will have marks that only acquaintances will know, so that they can be proven to be written by themselves, but there are no such marks on Liu Chengyu's letters.
"Xiaowu, I leave it to you."
Bai Yujing said a word, a gust of cold wind blew by, and a tall figure appeared in front of him.
Xiao Wu geared up and looked at Liu Chengyu, who was already seriously injured on the ground, "My subordinates have been thinking about dealing with him for a long time."
"You, you are..."
Liu Chengyu only felt that this person was extremely familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere, right!
Isn't he the guard sent by Prince Pingnan to protect Xia Yunxian? !
"I am your uncle!" Xiao Wu shouted angrily, and his hard fist fell on Liu Chengyu's face...
At this time, Bai Yujing had retreated outside the ruined temple and casually tore off the human skin mask on his face.
Create an epidemic?
Xiao Junlan really opened his eyes.
How long did this game of chess take to be planned?
First, they created an epidemic, then incited local unrest, forcing the central government to open warehouses to release grain, and then colluded with local governments to embezzle disaster relief grain, and even came up with the idea of making plans for artillery.
He is such a virtuous king who accumulates virtues and does good deeds, but who is the rebellious minister?
"Your Majesty? My God, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
The guards who followed Liu Chengyu had been controlled by Bai Yujing's people. Now they were free and rushed into the ruined temple.
The man on the ground was covered in blood, as if his hand and hamstrings had been severed, but he was still breathing.
"Bastard, bastard..."
Liu Chengyu's bloodshot eyes stared at the dilapidated temple beams. They actually disabled his martial arts!
"Your Majesty, my subordinates will help you go back, huh?!"
Unexpectedly, one of the guards stepped forward to help Liu Chengyu up from the ground, but a dagger was stabbed into his chest!
The rest of the people looked horrified, and saw Liu Chengyu laughing maniacally, "Are you all here to see my prince's joke? Haha, hahaha, I will never admit defeat. As long as I am still breathing, you can't even think about it. …”
He spat out blood with a loud sound, rolled his eyes and passed out.
…
"Have you heard? Prince Liu of the Yongding Marquis Mansion was hunted down by his enemies and lost his martial arts. Now he is so crazy that he has disowned all his relatives!"
"It's so tragic. Not long ago, the young master of the Liu family also had his hands and feet broken in the flower house, and Miss Liu, a good little girl, died tragically in the palace!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, evil, really evil."
The common people now look at the solemn gate of the Hou Mansion and avoid it, for fear of being contaminated with unclean things.
"Are you satisfied with this result?" Bai Yujing went to Xia Mansion with this news. Xia Yunxian's expression was indifferent, and then she went back to the house and took out the letter she had stolen from Liu Chengyu's study. .
"The real letter was originally with you?"
Bai Yujing suddenly understood why Xia Yunxian burned down the Hou Mansion that night, and then resolutely left the place where she suffered so much.
"I have stolen the production plans you hid in the Bai Mansion and sent them to Xiao Junlan today."
Bai Yujing raised his eyebrows. He just dealt with Liu Chengyu, but she took the time to do business?
"What a coincidence? Xiao Junlan also sent someone to kidnap the production plans I sent to the border."
Xiao Junlan asked Xia Yunxian to steal it, it was just a false shot, and he also wanted to test whether Xia Yunxian could be used by him.
Naturally, he didn't believe that Bai Yujing would put such an important thing in a place where others could easily take it away, so he secretly ordered someone to keep an eye on him. When he found someone leaving the Bai Mansion secretly, he followed him, and as expected, he robbed Bai Yujing's special gift for him. The production drawings he prepared.
Both copies are actually fake.
The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding that the suspicious person had gradually fallen into their trap.
