The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 387 Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided

Everyone was terrified and dared not speak.

Qin Ci's expression was ugly, and it came from the bottom of his heart. He was struggling to let Wang Min go, caught in the middle.

At this point, facing the furious Qin Yun, he had nothing to say, and knelt down and said, "Brother, please calm down."

Qin Yun snorted coldly: "Eleventh brother, you disappoint me so much!"

"This matter is of great importance. I cannot be partial to anyone or commit corruption!"

"For your crime, you should be beheaded!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the dozen or so senior generals who were kneeling turned pale and they all felt a chill.

"Your Majesty, please don't!"

"You can't blame the prince for this. We were indeed following orders."

"Who knows if Wang Min has any secrets?"

Qin Yun yelled angrily: "Get lost!"

"Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided!"

"Everyone, get out of here and receive 100 military sticks. Your salaries will be cut in half, and you will wait for the follow-up investigation!"

The senior official of Youzhou looked dissatisfied and was about to say something.

But he was glared back by King Shunxun Qin Ci.

He took the initiative to cup his hands and said, "Brother Emperor, I plead guilty!"

"You will be punished immediately and you will be dismissed from your military duties and will be investigated."

"I'm sorry, I failed to live up to your expectations."

After saying this, he walked in front with his horse and golden sword, and calmly went to the side courtyard to receive the military weapons.

Those senior generals of Youzhou had no choice but to follow.

From a distance, King Shunxun’s voice was heard.

"When you carry out the execution, you must not let anyone off the hook!"

"I have made a grave mistake. Fight all 100 soldiers to death!"

Hear this voice.

Qin Yun covered his forehead and sighed to the sky!

King Shunxun was such a steady and capable person, why did he let Wang Min escape silently?

Mr. Feng came closer.

Youyou said: "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with Gu Zhahe!"

Qin Yun didn't say anything.

Old Feng narrowed his eyes and continued, "According to the spy's report, Wang Min must have fled to Guzha River. With tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Youzhou and the ability of King Shunxun, how could more than 200 people disappear without a trace?"

"That's not two people!"

Qin Yun pinched his brows.

"Then Mr. Feng, do you think there is something wrong with King Shunxun?"

"To be honest, from a personal perspective, I don't want to believe it."

"I can see from my eleventh brother that he has a straight bone structure and is definitely not someone with evil intentions."

Old Feng frowned and said in embarrassment: "This..."

"It's hard for me to say, but this matter is very strange and must be investigated thoroughly."

Qin Yun nodded: "We must conduct a thorough investigation."

"But I can't let my eleventh brother down. If anything goes wrong, I am also responsible."

"How's the investigation going on for the last time I asked you to send someone to investigate?"

Mr. Feng said, “I found it!”

"The marriage between Prince Shunxun and Lady Situ is undoubtedly a family marriage."

"Before this, he had a childhood sweetheart who was said to have committed suicide. The Royal Guards found her grave, by a stream somewhere in Youzhou City."

"Prince Shunxun values ​​friendship and loyalty, so he built a hut there and would occasionally stay there."

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes, and a light flashed.

died?

The childhood sweetheart died? This is too much of a coincidence.

Suddenly he asked, "Is it possible that Eleventh Brother resents me because of this matter?"

Mr. Feng's old face was covered with wrinkles. He spoke after hesitating for a moment.

"A prince shouldn't be so tolerant, right? And it's been so many years."

Qin Yun smiled bitterly: "Mr. Feng, you don't understand my eleventh brother."

"He is a passionate man."

Mr. Feng was silent.

At this time, the imperial guards came to report.

"Your Majesty, General Mu Le and Li Mu, the commander of the Jiangnan Army, are here to see you."

Qin Yun had no choice but to say, "Let them come to the hall to see me."

After saying that, he stopped talking and went to change his clothes with heavy steps.

Then come to the lobby.

The two generals, dusty and with their armor stained with blood, have already taken their positions.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

"My son, I am late in rescuing you."

"I am late to your rescue."

Qin Yun stepped forward to help the two of them up, forcing a smile: "What do you mean by late rescue? You are all great. You have held back all the troops of Xiliang."

"I haven't rewarded you yet."

The two of them did not dare to accept the reward and were very serious.

Because when he came, he saw King Lian Shunxun being punished with military weapons.

"Tell me, how is the battle going? Is there any major action in Xiliang?" Qin Yun asked as he sat down.

Mu Le bowed and said, "Foster father, I killed 3,000 enemies, but I didn't dare to pursue them further, so I didn't gain much."

Li Mu also said: "Your Majesty, I killed 2,000 enemies. I also received your order. I chased them for a while and robbed some baggage, but then I stopped chasing."

"As for Xiliang, no more troops were sent out."

"The battle at Hangu Pass made them a little scared and they were on high alert."

Qin Yun nodded; "Well, well done."

"General Li, take this contract and go to Xiliang City to collect the debt!"

Li Mu was stunned. Collecting debts?

He took it and looked at it, and was immediately surprised. The war had become so bad, and Wang Min still owed His Majesty 30,000 war horses?

"Remember, if Xiliang doesn't give me these 30,000 war horses, I will curse them under the city wall until they are covered in blood and their ancestors' graves smoke up!"

"It would be best if the Xiliang army could not help but come out of the city to fight!"

"Once you're out of town, we'll fight!"

Li Mu nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, I understand. I will go and collect the debt right away."

He walked quickly and energetically.

The grassland battle was just a feint and was not even a real battle.

But perhaps, with the breakdown of the peace talks at Hangu Pass, a full-scale war is about to break out.

"Godfather, where is I?" Mu Le asked with shining eyes.

"Why not let me lead the Shenji Camp to launch another surprise attack on Xiliang and first break through their gateway Pancheng. Without Wang Min, they will lose their backbone!"

Looking at him who was belligerent, Qin Yun smiled helplessly.

"Wang Min ran away."

Mu Le's eyes widened and he asked in surprise: "Run away?"

"How did she run away? Could it be that there were troops to rescue her?"

Qin Yun sighed: "It has disappeared, I will investigate."

"Just follow me for now, don't run around. The border of Xiliang is being watched by the Jiangnan government soldiers and the Zhenbei Army, so nothing will happen."

Mu Le nodded, and then suddenly reacted.

I couldn't help but shudder. Could it be that King Shunxun was punished for this?

"Then foster father...will Xiliang still fight?" he asked tentatively.

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, let me finish investigating Wang Min's strange escape."

"By the way, let's see what Wang Min will do next."

"Just now, the Zazahar tribe also sent a letter, saying that the nine tribes have been in turmoil recently!"

He said with deep meaning: "I want to recover Xiliang. It is not just a matter of two sides. There are too many interests involved."

Mu Le seemed to understand and nodded.

……

More than an hour later.

Qin Yun arrived at King Shunxun's residence.

Even a strong man could not withstand the blows of a hundred battles. Qin Ci was beaten to pieces and was carried back to the room.

Mrs. Situ is applying medicine to him.

Seeing Qin Yun coming, everyone knelt down and saluted.

Shunxun King Qin Ci also struggled to climb down, but was stopped by Qin Yun: "Okay, you don't have to salute if you are injured."

Qin Ci's face turned pale and he smiled bitterly: "Thank you, my royal brother."

Then he looked at his close ministers and family members in the room.

"Everyone go down, Your Majesty wants to see me. There is something important to discuss."

The people in the room left one after another.

Qin Yun took a deep look at Situ. She did not cry or make a fuss about Qin Ci being punished, and she did everything a wife should do, but that was all.

seem……

The four words "appearance together, but spirit apart" apply to their marriage.
