Chapter 651: Capturing the Queen

Chapter 651: Capturing the Empress

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Dou Hongxian coughed and struggled to get up from a pile of thatched wood chips, just now, the entire restaurant had been pulled down with iron cables from all sides. If they hadn't pulled it from all sides, the roof was a makeshift wooden hut made of thatch, and they were on the top floor, they would have been buried in the rubble.

Before he had time to pat off the dust on his body, Dou Hongxian, who had just gotten up, had already seen the sergeants around the collapsed restaurant, who had surrounded several layers of joy inside and out. The flickering torch shone on her eyes.

She already recognized at a glance that it was Chen Pojun's soldiers who were surrounded by water outside, but who didn't say a word.

"This girl, just said goodbye to the General's Mansion, and we met again in a blink of an eye, we are really fateful." Chen Kefu rode on the back of the majestic purple dew horse, and looked at the unforgettable young woman in front of him with a playful smile.

As soon as the banquet ended, Chen Kefu had already sent people to keep an eye on this woman. At the banquet, she attracted Chen Kefu's attention several times, and she had already become suspicious of her. Especially the time when she knocked over the poisoned wine, she was obviously helping Li Shimin cover up.

The man sent to follow him lived up to his expectations, and soon followed her to the restaurant.

The people of the Secret Service Department are no strangers to this restaurant, and the last time they monitored Li Shimin, Li Shimin had entered this restaurant. Although they didn't find any further information at the time, the restaurant had already registered with them. Now that the suspicious woman had entered the restaurant again, the spy immediately sent someone to report to King Chen.

After hearing the secret agent's report, Chen Kefu immediately led his troops to arrive. He hadn't caught her red-handed at the banquet before, firstly, to prevent her from potentially telling the Li family's father and son's plot in public. Second, it is also to follow the vine and find out the other people.

In the information that the eldest grandson Shunde told him, it only mentioned that Li Yuan and his son had formed an alliance with the envoys of Wei and Yan, but did not mention that it was an alliance with Dou Hongxian, the empress of Yan State, and Xuanzao, Li Mi's confidant of Wei State. Such a secret high-level information, Li Yuan's father and son did not announce it.

However, Chen Kefu will not let go of this opportunity, if he can capture the envoys of Wei and Yan in one fell swoop, it will undoubtedly be able to interrogate a lot of information about Wei and the two countries, especially their current alliance, and some military plans of the two countries, which is very important information.

Dou Hongxian knew Chen Kefu, but Chen Kefu didn't know Dou Honghong.

Dou Hongxian glared at Chen Kefu hatefully, turned her head a little depressedly, she had just been buried in the thatch, and she even lost the knife. Now that I am in a reset, it is impossible to pull a cushion back, so I have no choice but to do it.

Chen Kefu never thought that this very unique woman would be the daughter of Dou Jiande, and he didn't expect that she was still the queen of Wei Dao'er, the current emperor of Yan State. According to common sense, no one would have imagined this possibility. At best, he just regarded her as a female spy of Wei and Yan.

"Ahem, ahem!!" Several more voices came from the rubble, and gray-faced men and women struggled to crawl out from underneath. Two of them seemed to be slightly injured, holding their legs and moaning softly.

The appearance of one of them made Chen Kefu's eyes light up.

"Come on, bring them all." Chen Kefu pointed forward with his horsewhip. Suddenly, dozens of soldiers rushed forward, and the spear blade was pointed in front of Dou Hongxian and the others, and they were escorted to Chen Kefu one by one.

Before the people got closer, Chen Kefu finally saw Fang Xuanzao's appearance clearly and determined his identity. couldn't help laughing, "The house is in charge, don't come to it for years, don't come to harm." The head of the house came to Mengjin, why didn't he meet at the king's place, this is not to take our brotherhood to heart. Looking at the house's dress, are you the envoy of Wei this time? ”…,

Fang Xuanzao's face was complicated, and he was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect Chen Ke to come back so quickly, nor did he expect that he actually knew that he was an envoy of Wei. That has clearly shown that Chen Kefu had already known about the alliance between the three families of Wei Yan and Tang, no wonder Li Shimin would fail, he had already known everything. But he knew, but he kept pretending not to know, and it was really a good means to get rid of Wang Shichong with Li Shimin's hand at tonight's banquet.

He snorted coldly, turned his head away, and did not answer. When two countries fight, each is its own master, and being captured does not necessarily mean death. But Chen Pojun married Zhai Rang's daughter, and Zhai Rang died under his strategy, and now that it has fallen into their hands, how can he still live. It's better to be more simple and save some humiliation.

Seeing Fang Xuanzao's reaction like this, Chen Kefu was not angry. Fang Xuanzao, although he has not been with him for a long time, he has long known that although he is a talented person, he is narrow-minded and has no room for others. It's okay to be a prefectural order and a taishou. But let him serve as a state assassin, central prime minister and other high positions, but he does not have that ability. Such a person, whether it can be used or not, the key still depends on his own attitude. Since he didn't want to surrender, there was no need to bother begging him.

looked at the group of people in front of him, but it was Dou Hongxian who interested him the most. It's not that she covets her beauty, but her reaction after being caught. Seeing that after she was captured, not only was she not afraid at all, but she was calm as usual, you can see that this woman is not simple.

"Brother Fang is the envoy of the Wei State, so this girl seems to be the envoy of the Yan State, I don't know the girl's name, I don't know if I can tell it." Chen Kefu asked with a smile.

Dou Hongxian didn't take Chen Kefu in his heart at all, just glanced at him contemptuously, snorted coldly and turned his head. There was a feeling of sacrificing one's life for righteousness, and Chen Kefu was more and more surprised.

"Chen Lei, except for Brother Fang and this young lady, take all the others down for interrogation separately, and then check the confession. The king wanted to know everything about them in the shortest possible time, including the young lady. ”

"Yes." Chen Kefu bowed in response, and with a wave of his hand, dozens of guards stepped forward and dragged everyone except Dou Hongxian and Fang Xuanzao down.

Several guards took a table from the restaurant next to them, and a small couch, and by the way, brought Chen Kefu a pot of good tea. Chen Kefu was in front of the army, drinking tea leisurely, while secretly observing the expressions of the two people.

Although Fang Xuanzao was still holding on, his face was pale, and his face was like white paper. Even his shoulders, hands and feet were shaking slightly, obviously very frightened in his heart. And the woman, although she turned her back to herself, could not see the expression on her face, but she stood as straight as a pine, facing the wind blowing on the river, her clothes fluttering, and her long hair flying, you could see the firmness in her heart.

But after a cup of tea, Chen Lei had already walked back quickly with a stack of papers.

"Your Highness, you have been preliminarily interrogated, and everyone has confessed something. The subordinates will confess the content of each person, and then cross-corroborate the confession with others, most of which are false. Some of them are right, and at present, there are more than a dozen confessions that have corroborated each other. One of them was initially confessed by only one person, but later his subordinates had him interrogate him harshly, and half of them were able to confess, but several others denied it. ”

As he spoke, Chen Lei handed over the stack of confessions to Chen Kefu, and according to what he said, all those who had confirmed each other drew a circle at the back. And those that have not been mutually corroborated have a cross in the back. And one of them, followed by a question mark, is obviously the question he said that only half of the people have confirmed.

He hurriedly browsed and read the confirmed breath, and felt very satisfied, but when he saw the confession with a question mark, he couldn't help but sigh in surprise. This confession describes that the unique girl is the daughter of Dou Jiande, the king of Hejian in the Yan Kingdom, the concubine of Wang Suba, the former emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom, and the emperor Dou Hongxian of the current emperor Wei Dao'er. …,

When he first saw this news, he was surprised, but he thought it was fake. Even the Great Yan Kingdom of Hebei is just a group of bandits occupying four or five counties, a separatist force. But no matter what, the queen of this country is also quite noble. At present, although the Yan Kingdom is gradually surrounded, there are still 400,000 soldiers and horses, no matter how rabble there is, it is impossible for a queen to run to be a messenger, or what kind of dangerous messengers.

In particular, this queen is also Wei Dao'er's favorite queen, according to the information he has, the reason why Yan Guo has internal strife is because Wei Dao'er and Wang Xuba are competing for this Dou red line. Of course, this is only the reason for the legends outside. The real reason will definitely not be as simple as competing for a woman, this can only be an inducement. But in any case, this also shows that this queen is very favored.

But when Chen Kefu looked up at Dou Hongxian's figure, there were some unexplained reasons in his heart, which made him very reluctant to choose to believe that this woman was the queen of the Yan Kingdom.

After being silent for a long time, Chen Kefu looked at her background and said slowly, "This king and Queen Dou are old neighbors of Hebei, who have been famous in the past but have never met, I didn't expect that we would meet here, it's really a blessing, a blessing." ”

When Dou Hongxian heard this, he didn't feel the slightest surprise or panic, but just reached out and put his hand together the green silk that was blown by the night breeze blowing in the river, full of a woman's charm and tenderness. She turned slowly, her eyes full of heroism.

"King Chen's name is in Hebei, and the little woman is like thunder, and when I see it today, it is really better to be famous than to be famous, and I have admired it for a long time."

Chen Kefu couldn't help but smile, this Dou Hongxian is worthy of being born at the bottom, and has been in the peasant army for many years. The little doubt that I still had in my heart turned into smoke and dust and went away with the wind.

looked at Dou Hongxian, and then turned his head to look at Fang Xuanzao, it really makes people sigh that every time a hero slaughters more dogs, he is a scholar, and there is another sentence, that is, chivalrous women always come out of the dust. Although Dou Hongxian is not a woman in the dust, she has been in the peasant army for many years, and she can be regarded as a strange woman in the red dust.

A queen of Yan and an envoy of Wei were all in their hands at this time, looking at these two people, Chen Kefu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.
