Chapter 405 405. Deceive
Duke Wei Guo originally planned to resettle him, but he didn't expect to receive a message from Liang Quanbin.
Zhu Hong?
He had no impression of this man before.
After all, he was just a small steward in the Thirteenth Water Transport Department, and in the eyes of Duke Wei, he was naturally as small as dust.
But Liang Quanbin's letter stated that this person was an important witness who could bring down the eldest prince, so he had to miss the night to come for interrogation.
Are you Zhu Hong?
Dont change your name when youre walking, dont change your surname when youre sitting down.
He is quite well-educated.
It doesnt matter if you have a seed, but what if you dont have a seed. Now Zhus family has been ruined and his descendants have been cut off. Its useless to have any seed.
Zhu Hong came here with the determination to die. Although Liang Quanbin was the one who harmed him, without the support of Duke Wei, he did not dare to be so presumptuous, so he recorded the blood feud on Duke Wei.
This time he coaxed Liang Quanbin into sending him to the eastern capital in order to drag Duke Wei to die with him.
Hence, the intention to assassinate him was hidden under his eyes, but it was not revealed on his face.
Looking at Zhu Hong like this, Duke Wei Guo kept thinking in his mind, could this man in front of him really bring down the eldest prince?
Given that he has been dealing with the eldest prince's party for so many years, if he really buried Zhu Hong in Jinling City, I'm afraid it would be more to collect evidence that he used the Thirteenth Water Transport Department to corrupt officials. After all, the two sides are mortal enemies, and the big prince The prince never understood what hibernation meant, and **** with one move.
"What evidence do you have in your hand? Just tell me. If the evidence is true, I will spare your life!"
Zhu Hong looked around cautiously. He was surrounded by guards. He was the only one. It was too difficult to attack openly.
So he lowered his voice and said.
"real?"
I have been an official in the court for so many years, so I naturally mean what I say.
Then I want to talk to you alone, no one else is allowed to be present!
Duke Wei frowned. Before he could speak, the person next to him said something.
Do you want to meet the Duke alone if you want to? I think you are toasting me with wine instead of eating as a fine. I have to go through eighteen kinds of torture. I wonder if you will say anything!
What a joke, Im all alone now. If you want to torture me, just do it, otherwise well both die together. Dont even think of getting any evidence out of me!
"you!"
Duke Wei took action to stop the people around him, and then spoke.
Step back, I will have a detailed discussion with him alone.
The people glanced at Zhu Hong one after another, and then retreated outside the door. They were not too far away, but if they whispered, they couldn't hear clearly.
Hes gone, just tell me.
Zhu Hong laughed sadly, thinking about the prosperity and decline of his Zhu family in the past few decades, he felt a little bitter for a moment.
If I had not embarked on this path because of greed, perhaps my family would not be so ruined today.
Unfortunately, it was too late to regret everything. Now the only idea is to drag Wei Guogong to die together, so that the forces behind him can counterattack Liang Quanbin and avenge him.
I have only one line of contact with the eldest prince. There is actually a reason why I have been hiding in Jinling City for so many years.
"what reason?"
"The shipping business in the hands of the Chi family is a hot commodity. The eldest prince has long been prepared to join. Unfortunately, the Chi family doesn't know what to do, so I had to secretly arrange manpower for the Chi family. This marriage with the Chi family is also based on this idea. in."
There was no flaw in his words. When Duke Wei heard about shipping, he became interested.
In fact, not only the eldest prince, he also coveted the fat man of the Chi family.
So, what is the evidence in your hand?
"The evidence in my hand is..." Zhu Hong waved to Duke Wei, intending to whisper to him.
When Wei Guogong went forward to bow his head, he saw that the silver light in Zhu Hong's mouth flashed, and a silver needle sprayed directly from his mouth and took the life door.
It was too late and then it was too late. The angle of the silver needle was fast and tricky. Seeing that he could not avoid it, Duke Wei could only turn his head away. By coincidence, the silver needle went straight into his eye. After screaming, blood flowed down his face. It flowed down the palm of my hand.
The guards heard the noise and ran over immediately.
Step forward and break all Zhu Hong's limbs, fearing that he would make any strange move again.
Left eye, it was the left eye that Wei Guogong was stabbed.
Now that the silver needle has gone in, he does not dare to move and can only cover it. When he looks at Zhu Hong with his right eye, he is full of killing intent.
So you have no evidence at all, and you came today just to kill me?
"Hahahaha, you are smarter than that idiot Liang Quanbin! Old man! Since I dare to kill you, I am not afraid of your revenge. Anyway, there is no one in my Zhu family who can make you take revenge. Whether or not you die today is mine. Mistake. Under Jiuquan, even if I am a ghost, I will not let go of the Wei family and the Liang family, so just wait!"
After saying this, he immediately bit his tongue and committed suicide.
By the time the person next to him reacted and grabbed his mouth, blood was already flowing all over his mouth, and he soon lost his breath.
The Zhu family, one of the four major families in Jinling City, except for Huo Chong who fell into the hands of King Ding, can be said to be dead.
Gong Wei Guo really hated Liang Quanbin in his heart.
I thought he was a smart man, but he didn't expect to send such a thing. If he hadn't dodged in time, more than one eye would have been injured, and he would have been killed on the spot.
So he said with anger in his tone.
Chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs!
"yes!"
After Duke Wei said this, he was supported by his servants and sent back to the study. The doctor who came in a hurry immediately went to see his injuries.
Taken away his palm, a silver needle has been driven deeply into his eye.
The doctor's face has never been so nervous. He usually only sees minor illnesses and pains, but he has seen such a big scene there.
So he knelt down tremblingly and said.
My lord, this silver needle is stuck too deep and I cant take it out. Im afraid I need to ask the palace doctor to take a look. Maybe I can save my eye.
As soon as he heard this, Duke Wei became angry.
Quick, go find the doctor. Just over here, Ive been assassinated.
The people below are all good people, and they will understand what to do as soon as they hear this.
So he arranged for the quick-footed ones to go out in a hurry to find the imperial doctor, while the rest at home beat gongs and drums and started shouting to catch the assassin.
Some people even pretended to be assassins and ran outside.
The arrangements were made flawlessly, and it turned out that he was someone who had worked under Duke Wei for many years.
So, not long after Emperor Qi fell asleep in the palace, he was woken up again.
Duke Wei was also assassinated?
Emperor Qi was shocked. When he heard about this, he walked out of the palace without even putting on any clothes.
There was darkness outside the city, except for the palace of the important ministers, which was brightly lit.
How are people now?
I heard that the assassin was very cruel and the Duke hurt his eyes.
The wedding of the Ninth Prince was about to take place, but Duke Wei was assassinated at this time. No matter from which angle he looked at it, Emperor Qi felt that there was some possibility of directing and acting on his own.
