The truth came out, a truth that made everyone present sigh.
Ma Rulong lay on the ground, closed his eyes in pain, and burst into tears.
At that time, the Ma family had no plans to rebel, no plan to send private troops to rescue him, and no intention of participating in any attempt to seize the throne.
The Ma family only wanted to protect themselves. They were once emperor and courtiers. Ma Rulong was the popular person in front of the former emperor and the most favored person by the former emperor. There were even many times when the former emperor treated Ma Rulong brothers in front of his ministers. , Ma Rulong, who had no official position and no position, also led several soldiers and prevented several popular uprisings and mutinies for the former emperor.
The Ma family knew that they would be liquidated by the new king. After discussion among the family elders, they decided to hand Ma Rulong over in order to keep their wealth, even if everything they had was given to them by Ma Rulong.
At that time, Ma Rulong was not in Beidi at all.
At that time, Ma Rufeng was in the north.
After Ma Rufeng learned about it, he couldn't bear to see Ma Rulong being betrayed, and he couldn't bear to be ashamed of the incompetence and cold-bloodedness of the elders in the clan, so he planned all this and killed people with borrowed knives.
The Ma family has a large territory in the north, and almost all the core children live together. Ma Rufeng sent people to inform Wen Yong one by one about the Ma family's defense plan and defense situation, and secretly planned to gather all the core children together. Together.
Ma Rufeng also met Wen Yong in person and said that he supported Zhou Ke and that it was his Ma family who voted for Zhou Ke. The Ma family wanted to rebel and wanted to send troops to King Qin in Beijing to rescue him.
Wen Yong didn't fully believe it, so he finally made a bold move. He divided his troops into two groups and sent another group of men and horses to pretend to attack Zhu's family. Everyone was destroyed.
If the troops had not been divided into two groups, Wen Yong would have been 100% sure that he would raid the Ma family, kill all his core children, and then escape unscathed.
But if you do this, you won't be able to stop the private armies of the Zhu family and other aristocratic families.
So Wen Yong, with the determination to die, led the private armies of the aristocratic families to the territory of the Ma family. Even if his entire army was wiped out, the Ma family would be beaten to death by the private armies of the Zhu family and other aristocratic families, and they would have no time to go to Beijing again. Zhou Ke was ruined.
But there is a drawback to doing this, that is, Wen Yong will die and will never be able to escape.
Even so, Wen Yong did it without hesitation, risking his own life in order to wish Zhou Ke to ascend the throne.
Ma Rufeng's abacus crackled and half failed.
The elders of the family were all dead, and even the younger ones were wiped out. The first wealthy family in the North had about a hundred core disciples. Only Ma Rufeng, who had taken Ma Fenghou into hiding in advance, and Ma Rufeng, who had not come back yet, were left. The horse is like a dragon.
This means that if Ma Rufeng had not planned all this, the children of the Ma family would not have died. At most, only one Ma Rulong would have died.
In fact, Zhou Ke would not kill Ma Rulong at all after he ascended the throne, because the Ma family had no intention of rebelling, and the same was true for Ma Rulong.
According to Zhou Ke's plan back then, it was to send Wen Yong to stop the private soldiers in the North. Without the participation of the Ma family, what kind of trouble could the Zhu family and other aristocratic families make?
But Ma Rufeng was too ambitious. He wanted to take sole control of the Ma family and become the king of the North. This eventually led to the tragedy of annihilation of the family, which made his younger brother Ma Rulong regret his life and always hate Zhou Ke.
Ma Rufeng is still ambitious and has been secretly communicating with Zhou Tianfeng.
Ma Rulong knew about this, otherwise he would not have betrayed Zhou Tianfeng some time ago, saying that Zhou Tianfeng had been to Beijing.
Ma Rufeng didn't seem to want to see chaos in the world when he saw Ma Rulong, and has been hiding the truth from Ma Rulong since then. Zhou Tianfeng came to Ma Rufeng before to plan to send dead soldiers to the capital. If he could kill the emperor, he would kill him. If he couldn't, he would kill the court ministers. Let the court have no time to take care of the Southland and see if Zhou Tianfeng can establish himself as king in the Southland.
As long as the emperor is killed and chaos breaks out in the capital, Ma Rufeng will take advantage of the opportunity. He takes Ma Rulong and Ma Fenghou and immediately returns to the north, joins the Zhu family and other aristocratic families to wait and see what happens, and even wants to bribe the border troops in a whimsical way to complete the project. His illusory dream of the "King of the North".
You must know that Zhou Ke had nine sons in total. Except for You Wang Zhou Yan, who was in the capital, the other princes' palaces were in the capital, but their people were not there. Most of them were practicing in the military or local affairs in various places, and they had never established a prince.
If Boss Zhou dies, at least half of these princes will jump out to grab the throne. There is no time to estimate the north and south. Zhou Tianfeng will establish himself as king in the south. The most capable northern and southern frontier troops will not be able to intervene. We need to guard against foreign enemies. .
It is worth mentioning that when Zhou Tianfeng sent the dead soldiers over, he warned them not to hurt the Han family and his son unless forced. If Han Bairen could be won over, it would not matter even if he did not kill the emperor.
Maybe it was cause and effect, or maybe it was God's will. Zhong Yin and others encountered a dead mouse and were about to kill the emperor. Ma Rulong appeared. Just to play happily in Four Seasons Villa in the future, he immediately chose to save him. The emperor also saved all the people and prevented the world from falling into chaos.
At that time, Ma Rufeng thought he had saved Ma Rulong, but he didn't know that Zhou Ke had never thought of killing Ma Rulong.
Now, Ma Rulong ruined Ma Rufeng's important matter and saved Zhou Ke's life.
God's will plays tricks on people, but that's all.
Han You ordered people to take Zhong Yin down, and the emperor would be angry after he woke up.
Zhong Yin yelled, saying that Han You didn't keep his words and promised to give him a happy one.
Han You shook his head. He didn't care if he broke his promise to an assassin. What Zhong Yin said was of great importance, not only the grudge between Ma Rulong and Boss Zhou, but also the truth about Wen Yong's invasion of the Ma family in the North despite military orders.
It is worth mentioning that Zhong Yin also mentioned Yu Qi, saying that he did not want Yu Qi's life. Even though Yu Qi kept resisting and refused to betray Four Seasons Villa, he still did not kill Han You's "forbidden wife". Look, In this situation, I hope Han You will give him a happy one.
"Second Master." Han You came to Ma Rulong and called him "Second Master" for the first time.
This "Second Master" did not make anyone present feel uncomfortable.
First, Ma Rulong came to the rescue.
Secondly, Ma Rulong never thought of rebellion back then.
Han You could afford to call "Second Master" when dealing with a sick horse or rescuing a horse, but it was just this time. Rebellion would punish the nine tribes.
"I promise you that I will protect Ma Fenghou. If you can't ask for mercy, I will send someone to send him away. He can leave the capital, go to the grasslands, or wherever he goes. He can live a life of anonymity and freedom. However, I can't just protect one person. I also want to protect him. Kill one person, if you want Ma Fenghou to live a happy life, don't tell him that it was me who did it!"
Ma Rulong pressed his head tightly against the ground, choking silently.
"Also, I have to keep you locked up forever. Please feel aggrieved."
Han You stood up and nodded towards Ji Ying: "Including Ma Rulong, there are a total of twenty-one people. They will all be locked up and kept separately. Let's serve them well."
Just after the explanation, a banker ran in.
"Master, the emperor's servant Eunuch Wen has woken up."
Han You rolled his eyes. There was no use for the eunuch to wake up, and it was not the emperor who woke up.
"Master, Eunuch Wen said...said...said he wanted women, the more the better."
"What do you want?"
Han You almost spat out a mouthful of old blood: "Father-in-law, do you want a woman?"
The banker nodded repeatedly, but he didn't understand, so he just told the truth.
Han You had a question mark on his head.
Zhong Yin just said that the poison was originally meant to be administered separately, but for some reason it was all poured into the wine. It was for this reason that everyone had different symptoms.
Those with diarrhea, those who are in coma, those who are talking nonsense, and those who are sore and weak are all medicinal powders made by the barbarian tribes in Nanguan. They have all kinds of effects, and some of them may cause adverse reactions.
This adverse reaction should be reflected in Wen Wu.
The problem was that Wen Wu was an eunuch, which puzzled Han You.
The dealer said that Wenwu's eyes were all red.
Han You suddenly remembered that Boss Zhou had carried Wen Wu on his back and said that he had promised someone that he would not let the Wen family die.
As for the Wen family, there were only Wen Yong and Wen Wu. Wen Yong died in battle, and Wen Wu was a eunuch...
Han You didn't know what he was thinking of, so he said directly: "Didn't there be an old lady among the assassins before? She broke her arm, removed the leg joint, and sent it to Wenwu."
Wang Hai's eyes shone: "Master, I'll go in person, don't make any mistakes."
"Yeah." Han You nodded repeatedly: "Remember to come back and tell me the details."
