56. Handling
"Father! Woowoo woo ......"
Medea threw herself into the king's arms, and did not say anything, just sobbing vigorously, and her petite body trembled violently, as if she had experienced the most horrific thing in the mortal world.
Of course, she doesn't need to say anything, but anyone with a little bit of brains can see what happened after watching the scene.
"Yi! Pander to! Surname! ”
The king glared at Iason, like an angry lion, "The Golden Fleece is the treasure of my country, if the rest of the people asked me for it, I would have killed it a long time ago, but I thought that you are the grandson of my old friend, I have endured you many times, I never expected that you would dare to do such a unconscionable thing!" ”
"No...... I didn't...... I'm not ......" Iazon shook his head and waved his hand, trying to answer.
But the king sharply interrupted, "Could it be that my eyes are blind!" ”
"I'm ......" Iason looked at the angry king, at the girl trembling in his arms, at the warriors behind them, and at the warriors around them...... Suddenly, he felt like he was in the middle of a great conspiracy.
"Since you don't have anything to say, come on, take down Iasong for me!"
With a wave of the king's hand, the warriors stepped forward.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Huang Zheng stepped forward, stood in front of the warriors, and said to the king: "I have been with Yi Song for a long time, and I think that he is not a person who would do such a thing, which is a bit of a misunderstanding, I wonder if the king can give him a chance to answer, Siegfried is grateful!" ”
Although the status of the woman in front of the society is low, but in someone else's country, the princess of the country attempted to be violent, and was caught, this can't be washed away, if you are invincible, it's just that, but if you can't even compare to the other party, then even if you are killed on the spot, there is no problem, yes, in this environment, even close friends who have been friends with Yi Asong for many years dare not say anything.
Therefore, when he saw Huang Zheng standing alone in front of the soldiers, trying to plead for Yi Asong, everyone's eyes looking at him were filled with surprise.
The king looked at him coldly, "Misunderstanding? Could it be that what I see with my own eyes is also a misunderstanding? ”
Huang Zheng bowed slightly, and said without arrogance: "King, please listen to me first...... We are all warriors of the Argot ship, who have gone through many hardships to come to your country, and have even sacrificed several companions along the way, just to obtain the Golden Fleece and become famous in Greece, for which we do not hesitate to put life and death on the line. And Iason has even greater ambitions and ideas, he is expected to regain his homeland, and he is even more inspired to fight his country into a country without fighting, and now everything is ready, only to complete the final trial, how can he be stupid enough to risk being beheaded to humiliate Princess Medea in such a situation? This is a matter of disagreement. ”
As soon as he reminded him, the warriors also thought that this matter was something new, in their eyes, Iason was not such a brainless person, and not long ago, he had planned to reply to the king's request, how could he come here and still want to commit violence against Medea?
Therefore, all the warriors followed the example of Huang Zheng and begged the king to find out.
The king was very unhappy in his heart, he didn't care if he saw that it was true, and he could take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of Iason, he was most happy, but the warriors were all gathering firewood and the flames were high, and the army he brought with the flower garden would definitely not be enough, and if these people were completely desperate to save Iason, things would be even more complicated.
After pondering in his mind for a while, the king said in a deep voice, "Well, I would like to hear what he has to say...... Iason, you live in the guest room in the front hall, and the flower garden is in the back hall, why do you find it here? ”
Finding that things were improving, Yi Asong calmed down a little, glanced at Huang Zheng gratefully, and immediately replied: "King, it's not that I want to come, but Princess Medea sent me here." ”
"What did you say?" The king looked down.
Medea didn't speak, but shook her head in his arms, and sometimes there was a sound of sobbing.
"Believe me, King!" Seeing the other party's expression become more gloomy, Yi Asong could only struggle sickly, "I don't know why Princess Medea suddenly repented, but it was indeed her maid who enveloped me and said that I should come to the flower garden to see her...... I've got a picture of what she gave me, please see it. ”
"Bring it." The king shouted to the warrior beside him, who immediately stepped forward to take the skin of Iason, and handed it to the king, who only let go of it and looked at it, and then threw it to the ground in anger.
Huang Zheng picked up the animal skin carefully, and after looking at it, his expression changed, "This ...... There is no map. ”
"How about not?" Yi Asong immediately rushed forward and snatched the map from Huang Zheng's hand, and then no matter how he turned it, he couldn't find the previous map, it was just an ordinary animal skin.
"Hmph, what do you have to say now?" The king laughed.
Yi Asong's heart was in turmoil, and the too abrupt unfolding made him not know what to do, and at this time, Huang Zheng once again stood in front of him, loyally guarding him, "King, I have something to say." ”
That's a lot of words!
The king glared at him and said, "You say." ”
Huang Zheng immediately said: "This animal skin alone is not enough to show that Yi Ah Song is lying, if someone wants to slander him, use tricks and the like to erase the map on the animal skin and condemn it...... Of course, I'm not questioning Princess Medea, but it's hard to guarantee that someone secretly used Princess Medea to make the relationship between the two of us, in my opinion, it is better to check the maid first. ”
When the king thought about it, he also had some reason, so he nodded and said, "Come, go and find all the princess's maids." ”
After a while, the guards arrived at the flower garden with six maids-in-waiting, all of whom belonged to Medea's personal maids, who usually looked after her usual daily life and occasionally helped with the props of the trick.
"Iason, can the person who sent you a message be among them?" The king asked, pointing to the row of maids.
Yi Ah Song pricked up his eyes, looked at the six maids seriously, looked at them one by one, and gradually became frightened and hopeless from the initial expectation, and said, "They, all ...... Neither. ”
"Well, of course not, because you're lying!"
"No, I didn't!" Yi Ah Song shook his head violently, his eyes looked at Medea, his eyes were filled with sadness, "Princess Medea, I don't know where Yi Ah Song blamed you for wanting you to hurt me so much, but there is one thing that can confirm my purity ......"
As he spoke, he took out a bottle full of potions from his pocket, "This is the magic medicine you made with tricks, saying that if you apply it to your body, you will be invulnerable, and water and fire will not invade, and I will not be able to play tricks, I will never be able to make this medicine, please King Mingjian." ”
"Let me do it." This time, without waiting for the king's order, Huang Zheng took the initiative to take Yi Asong's magic medicine, then turned around and walked to the king and handed it respectfully.
The king had a smile on his face, he no longer believed in Iason's nonsense, but it was better to take a look, took the bottle and opened it gently, and then a unique fragrance emanated from the mouth of the bottle, just a few sips, he sensed a raging fire in his body, and immediately smashed the bottle to the ground in anger.
"Iason, you're killing yourself!"
"Huh?" Iason's face was dazed, and he didn't know why the king was so angry.
At this time, Huang Zheng squatted down, put his fingers on the potion on the ground and sniffed it to his nose, and the next moment, his expression became extremely complicated, and his gaze at Yi Ah Song was a little more questioning.
"Siegfried, what is that, do you know?" Immediately, a warrior asked him.
Huang Zheng raised his head, with an expression that was difficult to speak, and hesitated for a while before finally saying, "This is not a miracle medicine, but a ...... Tricks. ”
"Huh?!"
In an instant, everyone froze.
Huang Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The medicinal properties of this kitsch medicine are very strong, if a man applies it, it will increase the eternal strength by several times at most, but if it is applied to a woman...... No matter how chaste the martyr is, it will be instantaneous. And the most nervous thing is that if you overdose on this kind of coquettishness, the woman's will will gradually collapse, which will eventually lead to a ...... that is close to the man's ears Well, it's a very vicious drug. ”
Hearing this, the minds of all the people suddenly showed such a plot: knowing that he could not complete the king's two trials, Iason devised a trick to get this coquettish medicine out of nowhere, and tried to use it on Medea, so that she would cause a woman who bowed down to her, and then used her status and tricks to obtain the Golden Fleece.
If you win, you will not only get the Golden Fleece, but you will also be able to harvest a beautiful princess.
How reasonable.
How ripe.
How in line with a man's ambitions.
As for why Iasong would take out this medicine to death, it was no longer nervous, there was a reasonable answer, and no one cared about the rest.
"Yi Asong, you ......" Huang Zheng looked at Yi Asong, his face filled with a disappointing expression, "I used to believe in you continuously, because of your philosophy, because of your ambition, it is worth our efforts for you, but I never expected that you would really do such a thing, you are really ...... It's so disappointing for me. ”
"No, it's not!" When Yi Ah Song found that the only person who helped him to beg for mercy no longer believed in him, he immediately panicked, and quickly rushed forward to grab Huang Zheng's arms, and said loudly, "Siegfei, you believe me, you believe me!" It's really not me who did it, I'm wronged, it's her...... It's this woman who slanders me! ”
Huang Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Until now, you really still say such things...... Princess Medea has no grievances with you, what reason does she have to slander you? Do you want to say that the king, in order to prevent you from getting the Golden Fleece, united his own daughter to slander you? But this is Colchis, and the Golden Fleece is Colchis's national treasure, and if the king really doesn't want to give it away, he can just kick us out, why bother so much, and let his daughter suffer such a loss. ”
"Humph!" The king snorted coldly, as if he thought it was true, but he didn't bother to confess.
But he thought to himself: I want to get rid of you all, but you are not so stupid if you are not the most famous warriors, or the princes of a certain country, or even the sons of demigods, who represent almost all of Greece.
But then again, how did I not think of such a good method? But there was no need for Medea to come forward, so she randomly found a maid to ask the concubine in the palace to go down to Yi Asong, and the melon was ripe and exploded...... Tsk, this Siegfried is a miracle casually, his brain is much better than those civil officials, and he is also quite courageous, if he can stay and help me.
Thinking of this, the king glanced at Medea.
At the same time, Huang Zheng turned back to the king and said, "The matter is clear at this point, and I haven't said anything more, but for the sake of Yiasong's first attempt, I ask you to spare his life, and don't blame the warriors, they don't know anything about this matter, if you are angry in your heart, let Siegfried be punished on your behalf." ”
As soon as Huang Zheng's words came out, the warriors present were all surprised, of course they knew that no matter what happened to this matter, Yi Asong's reputation would be ruined, and they, the crew of the Argo ship, would also be inevitably involved, but Siegfried was really expected to bear all the faults on his shoulders, this kind of energy was indeed ...... The warriors looked at him, their eyes were filled with admiration, and some of the people's anger was surging, and they almost shouted that they wanted to cooperate with Huang Zheng to bear the punishment.
Only Atta snorted and looked up at the sky.
She didn't know what was going on, but no matter how she said it, she had lived with Huang Zheng for a month, and she also inquired a little about Huang Zheng's style of acting, and the current Huang Zheng had no resemblance to the usual one except for his face, no matter how she looked at it, there was fraud in it.
It's not what you did, what will I punish you for!
Listening to Huang Zheng's words, the king instinctively thought, but when he thought of Huang Zheng's ability, he suddenly had a new idea, and said in a deep voice: "Nian is the grandson of my old friend, and my daughter is only a little frightened, I will not kill him, I can let him leave Colchis, as for you...... You have repeatedly offended me, and since you are going to be punished, let me punish you as my slave and stay in Colchis forever. ”
"What!" All the warriors were suddenly shocked, and their hearts were full of fire, this punishment was indeed a hundred times heavier than Yi Asong, how could it be so.
At this time, due to Huang Zheng's dedication and energy, the warriors already admired him, and they were very dissatisfied with such a heavy punishment, and they were about to step forward to theorize.
"Father, you wouldn't do that!" At this moment, Medea got out of the king's arms, wiped the tears from her face, and said, "Master Siegfried is not at fault, although he spoke against you, but because of the arrogance in his heart, he is not really disrespectful to you. Ia Song Shicai...... It made me think that these Greek warriors were not good people, but after listening to the words of Master Siegfried, I realized that there may be warriors in this world, Siegfried is righteous and courageous, and he also likes to bear the sins of those around him, he is a truly respectable warrior, how can you punish him as a slave. ”
Daughter, I said that I punished him so that he could stay and help me, and as for being a minister or a slave, it is not a matter of my words, why are you so much to do...... The king was upset, but he was not able to say it.
And Huang Zheng had a grateful expression, "Princess Medea, you are so kind, an innocent and kind girl like you should not be in any danger, but the people around me are ...... I rejoice in the punishment for what I have done wrong......"
"No, Master Siegfried, don't say that." Medea came to Huang Zheng and said sincerely, "You are the most upright warrior, if even people like you are to be punished, then what justice can be said in this mortal world?" ”
"But if I am not punished, how can I fill the danger against you?"
"I didn't take it to heart, and my father has promised to spare Yi Asong's life, why should you ......"
"But I can't be ashamed."
"No, your integrity is worthy of the gods of the universe."
"No, I'm not as big as you say."
The two blamed each other while talking, Medea wanted to stop Huang Zheng and prevent him from being punished, while Huang Zheng wanted to get rid of Medea and didn't accept her plea, pushing and shoving, it looked like they were quarreling.
The people around were all moved by the integrity and kindness of the two, but Atta and Hercules were embarrassed not to do too much, the former knew a lot, and almost understood this routine, although the latter knew a little less, but had been taught by the clever goddess Athena, seeing this, he felt more and more guilty.
The two were thinking about when Huang Zheng was going to play this play, and Medea exclaimed, but in the process of pushing each other, Huang Zheng didn't control his strength, and simply pushed the girl out far away, and the direction where she was behind was Yi Asong.
When he failed Huang Zheng's trust and realized what the outcome would be, Yi Ah Song was a little discouraged, and it was not until this time that someone approached him, and he instinctively looked up...... He saw Medea, who had made him think that the girl who was like an angel was the hope of his future, but it was this hope that suddenly turned into a demon and pushed him into a hopeless cliff.
At this moment, he thought of the country that was snatched away by his uncle, of his huge ambitions, of the helplessness and majesty in front of the sail, and even more of ...... If he is driven out of Colchis like this, he will never be able to get back the Golden Fleece, and he will always lose hope of regaining his homeland, and he will be burdened with all the infamy, and he will completely become a fish that has slipped through the net.
Unwilling!
He is reluctant to end here, he has a fantasy that is not finished, he will not fall down, he still has to ......
"Don't even move!" Suddenly, Iason grabbed Medea, strangled her neck with one hand, and pointed at everyone with the other, as if it had become rampant, and shouted with red eyes, "Don't come here!" Thy daughter, king, is in my hands, and if you want her to live, give her the Golden Fleece in exchange, or I will kill her!" ”
If what Iason did in the past was only to disappoint the warriors, then the moment he held Medea hostage was completely indignant. Iason's honest confession that they were only driven out of Karsky at best, but if Medea died by something, the angry king would never let them go.
Faced with the power of an entire country, what do they have to fight dozens of people?
When life and death were in danger, they could no longer calm down and roared one after another.
It's easier than you imagined that the restraints between people can be broken through so idlely...... Huang Zheng looked at the scene in front of him and thought to himself.
Regarding the terrain directed by himself, he does not have a special sense of achievement, because of the limited period, the human beings in this world are mostly bent and obscurantist, and their fixed thinking makes them only believe in the facts they see in front of them most of the time, and lack of thinking and explanation, so even if the play he directed actually has too many loopholes, and even many ways to handle it, they can't see it.
Huang Zheng inquired about the characteristics of these warriors, knew about the character flaws of Iason, and also learned a few of her father's actions and thoughts from Medea's mouth, and then went through an easy arrangement to connect all the people's clarity into a line, and finally pulled this line to control all of them in the palm of their hands.
Manipulating the people's morale is actually Huang Zheng's best fighting method. Baidu's latest chapter of "Pushing 100,000 Masterpieces of Literature" is free to read for the first time.
