Chapter 197: The Difficulty of the Heavy Ear Party (2)

After the funeral, Hu Tu planned to visit a few old acquaintances in Quwo City. He drove slowly in a carriage, and when he was still a few miles away from Quwo, the clear and windless weather suddenly changed: the wind suddenly rose, and the rolling dark clouds suddenly covered the sky, and the sky suddenly darkened, and the surrounding was filled with a thick fog, and all the pedestrians disappeared inexplicably.

The fox suddenly saw Shen Sheng driving alone from oncoming from the oncoming side. Shen Sheng stopped, asked Hutu to board his car, and handed him the reins. The fox was full of joy and sorrow, and he couldn't figure out whether he was dead or Shen Sheng appeared, or if Shen Sheng didn't commit suicide at all, but just found a place to hide.

Shen Sheng's entire body was wrapped in a cloak and he didn't say a word. Fox didn't dare to look at him squarely, for fear of discovering that the inside of the cloak was just a dry bone. With tears in his eyes, he nagged: "If the prince can really come back, he will stay and not go again." Your enemies are dead, and the governance of the country needs your participation. ”

But Shen Sheng said, "Yiwu is really rude! He has done all the evil things, but he still wants to deceive his reputation. I have already accuse him to God, and God has promised to give the Kingdom of Jin to the State of Qin, and the people of the State of Qin will sacrifice my ghost. ”

Knowing that he had just bumped into a ghost, he wiped his tears and said, "I heard that ghosts cannot enjoy sacrifices that are not of their race, so people will not sacrifice to ghosts and gods of other races. In this case, I am afraid that your sacrifice will be cut off! Besides, if the monarch is guilty, why should the people of the country be affected? It's better to reconsider your request! ”

Shen Sheng said: "I have heard your opinion, I want to send a new request to the Emperor of Heaven, in seven days in the west of Quwo City, there will be a wizard to send a message to my uncle on my behalf. With that, he disappeared suddenly.

The fox suddenly rose in horror and realized that he had just dreamed a demon dream. But the reality of the dream and the curiosity of humans made him decide to find out.

In the early morning of the seventh day, Hutu came to the west of Quwo City, where there was a bustling market. He walked from south to north along the wall, and suddenly he saw a man curled up at the base of the wall, wrapped in a black cloak, which he had seen in his dreams.

The man in the cloak stretched out his cane and knocked on the ground, and the fox walked over and crouched down. The sorcerer said, "The prince wants me to tell my master that the Emperor of Heaven will not let the Jin Kingdom perish, but will cause the Jin army to suffer a crushing defeat in Hanyuan." ”

In winter, the envoy of the Qin State, Ling Zhi, was ordered to pay a return visit to the Jin State. In addition to making a high-sounding diplomatic speech, Ling Zhi also emphatically praised the outstanding merits of Hao Rui, Lu nephew, and Xin Cheng. He said that Qin Mugong hoped to marry from generation to generation, and invited the three of them to Qin to discuss the marriage, and gave them valuable gifts.

However, the Qin people were inherently unsuitable for intrigues, and their intentions were too obvious, and they were immediately suspected by the trio. The three said, "Are the gifts and the flattering words to lure us into the bait?" ”

In order to find out the facts, Lu Nephew invited him to a banquet with him the night before Ling Zhi returned to China, and designed a trap. Nephew Lu went to the left and right of the banquet, and then sat next to the Qin envoy and said, "The situation has changed, didn't Doctor Pi tell you?" After ascending the throne, the new king not only did not honor anyone's reward, but did many despicable and bad things. Now the heavens have issued a curse to cause the Jin army to suffer a crushing defeat in Korea, and the people of the country have become disgusted with the new king. Now that the upper army and the lower army are united, preparations have begun to be made for the expulsion of the new monarch and the establishment of Chong'er, so the previous plans have been canceled. ”

Lu Nephew kept looking at Ling Zhi's expression as he spoke. Ling Zhi's face froze for a moment, his eyes trembled slightly, and he categorically denied knowing what the plan was. But at this moment of lightning, Nephew Lu confirmed his suspicions.

After Ling Zhi left, Lu nephew reported the situation to Jin Huigong, who was stunned and had no idea at all. Nephew Lu said: "The matter has come to this point, it is better to plan it." The prince took precautions, and the three of us led a team to envoy according to what the Qin envoy said. If Pi Zheng makes trouble, he can be corrected on the spot. ”

Jin Huigong said: "Why bother, just catch it and talk about it." ”

Lu nephew said: "If you arrest people first, you will become guilty if you are not guilty!" ”

Jin Huigong said: "That's right, even if he is not guilty, he can save 700,000 acres of land." ”

Si Kou was ordered to arrest Pi Zheng and his fellow party Qi Ju and the Seven Doctors, and found a large number of weapons and armor in their homes. The suspect was righteous and awe-inspiring, and very readily admitted the charge, so the charges were settled. The only one who slipped through the net was Gonghua, who happened to be outside the city at the time.

His friends found him and advised him to flee as soon as possible, but Gonghua said: "Dr. Pi Zheng listened to my words before returning to China, and if he had escaped at that time, what would have happened to him would not have happened." I killed the Master, and if I don't go back to die, how can I be worthy of the Master? ”

He sent his entourage to Qin, and he himself was surrounded by some dead soldiers into the capital. Pi Zheng, Qi Ju, and the Seven Doctors were convicted of "treason" and killed.

At this point, all the backbone forces of the Heavy Ear Party have been cleared, and Jin Huigong can finally sleep peacefully.

Pi Zheng's son, Pi Bao, escaped to Qin, and he cursed Jin Huigong as a dehumanized tyrant, saying that Huigong had completely lost the hearts of the people because he killed half of the ministers; He asked the Qin State to immediately send troops to attack and expel the tyrant.

But Qin Mugong thought that the best time had been missed, and he said: "How can the Marquis of Jin kill people if he loses his heart? The new king ascends the throne and purge dissidents, which country does not have? The Marquis of Jin was not losing power, but strengthening it. Now that he has complete control of the country, it is impossible for the Qin State to have a chance of winning. But good fortune and misfortune will turn into each other, so please wait for the right time! ”
