Yingcheng's mother was killed by Shanggong, who revealed this matter to Yingcheng?

In front of Zhongli, Ying Zheng spit out a name: Hu Hai.

Hearing this answer, the people in the big tent looked at each other, and Zhongli was even more surprised, and he couldn't calm down anymore.

How could it be Huhai? How old is Hu Haicai, how could he know about the events of the year?

Zhongli remembered very well that tonight, in front of her, Shang Gong described in detail the counteroffensive plan of the year, and now only Shang Gong and Ying Ran know about it.

It is impossible for Shang Gong to publicize the family scandal to the outside world, let alone tell a prince who has lost power, so there is only one possibility, it must be Ying Ran to tell Hu Hai, and then let Ying Cheng know. In this matter, Hu Hai was just a pawn of Ying Ran, and he deliberately revealed the matter to Ying Cheng, causing an assassination, and the person Ying Ran wanted to kill was Ying Cheng.

Zhongli could think that when Ying Cheng first heard about his mother's murder, he would be annoyed and angry, and immediately rushed to the Zongren Mansion to inquire about Shang Gong. In this process, it was impossible for Yingcheng to lead troops into the city, and he was easily besieged by assassins when he was alone. And things are the same, Yingcheng was besieged and killed by many dead soldiers, if Zhongli didn't rush there, Yingcheng might really die.

Assuming that Yingcheng really dies and the commander dies outside, the generals will inevitably be in danger, and it will be difficult for the military camp not to mess up. Under the premise of unifying the Central Plains, Xianyang must not be chaotic, so Ying Zheng instructed Zhongli to sit in charge in person. In this way, he happened to save Yingcheng's life, although his life was unharmed, but he could not lead the armies with injuries. Zhongli also had no choice, so he promoted Li Xin to temporarily stabilize the generals of all parties.

Zhongli said in wonder: "You said that anyone can do it, but only Hu Hai, how is that possible?" Hu Hai's little guy was grounded in Lishan Afang Palace, no one dared to release him, even if he did this, it would be impossible for him to summon you. ”

Ying Chengyan said: "Hu Hai naturally did not send the news to me in person, but told me the news through the Mo family. I've already asked beforehand, and it's really Hu Hai. Hu Hai is the child of Princess Hu Ji, even if the palace people don't want to see him anymore, he is still my Ying family's descendant, plus Princess Hu Ji's status as a giant of the Mo family, spread the news, the Mo family is still okay. ”

Zhongli nodded, and Hu Ji didn't want to see Hu Hai, but the people below didn't know at all. For the Mo family, Hu Hai is the child of the leader, even if the royal family confines him in Afang Palace, what does it have to do with them? They only care about the interests of the Mo family, maybe one day Hu Ji will retire, and Hu Hai will become the new giant of the Mo family. At this point, he can't even say anything about Lige, after all, there are so many Mo families, and his prestige is not enough.

Zhong Liyan said: "Li Xin, you go to the Xianyang Academy Palace immediately and call Lige and the five brothers for me." In this matter, we must ask clearly, who summoned Hu Hai, and I will investigate to the end. Those who dare to kill me must be prepared to be killed, if this matter is really done by Hu Hai, then no wonder I am ruthless. ”

Li Xin listened to the order and rushed to Xianyang City. Li Xin didn't dare to listen to the battles between those upper-class figures, and no matter how much power he was given now, he didn't dare to make any more mistakes.

Yingcheng said in distress: "Teacher, do you really want to kill Hu Hai?" ”

The corners of Zhongli's mouth twitched, revealing an evil sneer, and said, "How can a mere prince be compared to my Great Qin soldiers?" I don't know how to go into battle to kill the enemy, I only know how to fight in the nest, if I really want to find out that it was Hu Hai's idea, I will not spare him. Even Orchid didn't dare to break my rules, just his little prince, who dared to harm the military, was looking for death. ”

At the same time, he looked at Yingcheng and said: "You have to be careful, the other party dares to make a move, killing once is killing, killing twice is also killing." From now on, all the guards around me will be replaced by Praetorian Guards, and I want to see how the other side makes a move. ”

Ying Cheng asked, "What is the purpose of the person who called the Mo family?" It's impossible for them to reveal anything about Hu Hai to us. ”

Zhongli said coldly: "Yingcheng, you have to remember one thing clearly, the current prince is Fusu, and Hu Hai is just a grounded prince. No matter who is standing behind Hu Hai, he should be our enemy. If the Mo family is not clear about this matter, the assassination of you will be borne by the Mo family. ”

"In front of me, forgive them for not daring to play any tricks. By the way, I took advantage of this incident to suppress those people in the Mo family and let them understand whose territory Xianyang is. In front of me, if someone dares to assassinate you, that is, they will not give me face. ”

After saying this, everyone in the big tent understood. According to Qin's annexation plan, it is expected to unify the Central Plains within a few years, and it is especially crucial to suppress those civil forces when that day comes.

Don't look at the three families who have people by Yingzheng's side, they all look to Yingzheng as the leader, but the people below may not be able to see this aspect, those people still go their own way, and they are still some unruly people in the rivers and lakes. Especially the Mo family, there are too many Mo families, and if you want all the Mo people to listen to Yingzheng's orders, you can't do it at all.

What's more, Hu Ji is pregnant and waiting to give birth in Zhongnan Mountain, so she can't take care of this aspect at all. Such a thing can only be done by Zhongli, and daring to stop Yingzheng's footsteps is her enemy.

It didn't take long for Lige to take the five brothers into the big tent, and after saluting, he was about to sit down, but was stopped by Zhongli and said, "Brother Lige, don't sit down yet, the lord of this hall has something to ask you." ”

Hearing this, Lige and the five brothers were stunned for a moment. Zhongli called them here so secretly, it should be related to the Mo family, looking at this situation, is it going to be unfavorable to the Mo family? He could only look at Zhongli with an inquiring gaze.

Zhongli said lightly: "The Mo family is in trouble, let's not talk about Hu Ji, she can't come to Zhongnan Mountain, I only ask you." Do you think that if I were to kill you, would the six of you be able to escape? ”

A few people looked bitter, this is the garrison barracks, Xianyang is Zhongli's lair, not to mention them, even if there are a few peak powerhouses, Zhongli can kill them, let alone them.

Du Qiu, the eldest of the five brothers, asked, "Why did the Zhongli Hall Lord kill us?" ”

Zhongli pointed to Yingcheng, who was lying next to him, and said, "Boss Du, in the early hours of the morning, my Yingcheng kid was besieged and killed outside the city. Those were dead soldiers, not Qin people. And the reason why Yingcheng appeared there was because the Mo family sent him a message that if I wasn't there at the time, he might have died a long time ago. You say, should this account be counted on the head of the Mo family? ”

A few people gasped when they heard this, how did they know about this? Zhongli obviously smashed a black cauldron on their heads, how could they admit it.

Lige said on the spot: "That's impossible, although my Mo family has a large number of people, but under the leadership of Hu Er, each has its own duties, and no one dares to mess around in Xianyang." Yingcheng is the commander of the garrison and has the responsibility of guarding Xianyang, which we all know. Even if the Mo family has some young people, they don't dare to carry out such an assassination near Xianyang, so please ask the hall master Zhongli to find out the facts and give us justice. ”

Zhong Li said: "The news will not be wrong, it is the news delivered by the Mo family." Not long ago, Hu Hai of Afang Palace sent a message to Yingcheng, which allowed Yingcheng to walk out of the barracks and fall into the trap of the assassins. Little Brother Feihe, the person who came to the barracks is your subordinate, and now he has gone back to report to Hu Hai. ”

"You just have to answer me if you have been in contact with Hu Hai recently. You can know this matter by looking into it casually, don't lie in front of me, you all know the consequences. ”

Lige, Du Qiu, Yunfeng, Tietou and others all looked at Feihe, and Yezhu even asked, "Fourth brother, do you still have a connection with Hu Hai?" ”

Feihe didn't look at his brother, raised his eyes to Zhongli, and asked, "Is it really a message from my little son?" ”

Zhongli nodded and said, "That's right, it's Hu Hai, you admit that you are still in contact with Hu Hai." ”

Feihe smiled bitterly: "Hu Er has long said that we are not allowed to have any contact with the little boy. Others may obey, but I can't get past myself. The little boy was raised by me, and his feelings are deeper than anyone else's, maybe he does things a little nonsense, but isn't this the case for any prince? It seems to me that it's just that we lack care about him, and sooner or later his personality will change back. ”

Lige, Du Qiu and others were silent, it seems that what Zhongli said is right, and it is really related to the Mo family. This made them feel very uncomfortable, and when Hu Ji left, he clearly told them not to have any dealings with Hu Hai, that was a test for Hu Hai.

But who could have known that his brother was still quietly dating Hu Hai. It's just that if there is nothing to do, now something has happened, and it has even led to Zhongli, the great evil star. Looking at Yingcheng lying next to him, he was injured all over his body, and it was estimated that he would not recover within a few months, no wonder Zhongli would intervene.

Without waiting for Zhongli to reply, Lige quickly cleared his mind and hurriedly said: "The fourth brother did something wrong, we shouldn't have any more relationships with Hai'er, even if we want to have a relationship, we have to wait until Hu'er is angry." Since Hu Er said it was a test, if you still help him, it will only make Hu Er more disgusted with Hai'er, in the troubled times, you can't even endure a little hardship, where will you achieve anything? ”

At the same time, Lige bowed respectfully to Zhongli and said: "Please Zhongli Hall Master to find out in detail, the Yingcheng brother was assassinated, and the matter involved the Mo family, then it has something to do with us, we will all bear the responsibility, and we can't escape it." ”

"But I also want to be fair, Hai'er is young, although he has done some ridiculous things, but he still doesn't dare to assassinate his own royal family. It seems to me that there must have been people who whispered something in his ear and encouraged him to do so, and he could tell the difference between right and wrong. ”

"The assassination of the Ying Cheng brothers must have hidden a huge conspiracy, which should be aimed at the Ying Zheng brothers. Since Brother Yingcheng is fine, I think this matter has been revealed for the time being, and when we tell Hu Er what happened here, we will definitely give Brother Yingcheng justice. During this period, whatever the hall master of Zhongli wants us to do, we will all obey the order and will not leave the school palace without permission, do you think this will be done? ”

Lige is also very helpless, it is the Mo family who is wronged, and now that he is being caught, he must always have an explanation. Then let's put on this posture, everything is up to you, you can't really kill us.

Zhongli sighed bitterly: "Brother Lige, the Mo family is at fault, the fault lies with Hu Hai, your relationship with Gongzi really makes it difficult for me, I can't really kill you." ”

"But there is one thing you think wrong, you are bent on protecting Hu Hai, so will Hu Hai protect you? Hu Hai's little guy is a big ghost, and he often does some absurd things. He has been fighting for power with Fusu, and when he failed to fight for power, it was natural for him to think of taking over the Mo family. ”

"The threat in front of him, that is, you and the five brothers, if you are eliminated, the next leader of the Mo family is likely to fall on him. You also said that there are masters behind Hu Hai, dare to assassinate Yingcheng this time, will you dare to kill you next time? ”

"Don't see him as a child, in my eyes, the royal family does not have a good stubble, the morality on the rivers and lakes is not a fart in the eyes of the royal family, and only you and Gongzi are still abiding by it. With Hu Hai's ghost spirit, can't he really see it? ”

"Go back and think about it clearly, and by the way, think about how to explain it to Childe, maybe Orchid also wants to hear your explanation."

Zhongli waved his hand and sent someone to send Lige and the five brothers out of the barracks, and continued to sit in the big tent to settle the emotions of the soldiers.
