MTL - Back Off, Let Me Come-Chapter 19 0: Shame (Part 2)

  Chapter 19 019: Shame (Part 2)

  Shen Tang almost choked on the unswallowed tea.

"Ahem—Yuan, so this is the truth about Gong's family being ransacked and exterminated?" Looking at what Qishan said, Shen Tang felt that Gong's was really not upright and innocent, "Knowing that Zheng Qiao is a traitor, he let the tiger go back to the mountain." , never thought that there would be a day of revenge by him?"

  Not everyone in this world will repay their kindness.

   What happened to Zheng Qiao in Xin Guo was completely a shame and a great humiliation. At that time, he was weak and had to make compromises. Now that he is the lord of the Geng Kingdom, once he has developed and gained strength, the hatred in his heart is like a volcanic eruption, and the black history has become an existence that needs to be wiped out.

  Qi Shan said: "Well, I don't know."

  Shen Tang teased: "I thought Mr. knew everything."

  Although it is a crossing at the beginning of the difficulty of hell, Qishan, the "guiding NPC", is very conscientious, five-star praise!

  Qi Shan pretended to be surprised, and pretended to say: "I am honored to be so highly regarded by Mr. Shen Xiaolang."

  Shen Tang: "..."

  In terms of skin, she was inferior to Qi Yuanliang, so she bowed her head and ate tea tactically, but Qi Shan secretly observed Shen Tang's reaction while drinking tea—he was always curious, what is the relationship between Mr. Shen Xiaolang and Mrs. Gong? He just heard that Zheng Qiao's revenge was the source of Gong's extermination, Mr. Shen Xiaolang was neither indignant nor disgusted, just flat, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

   But how could this be irrelevant?

  If Xiaolang Shen is said to be cold and ruthless, how could he run around in the rainy night last night for a fool who met only once?

  This person's reaction is completely beyond common sense and logic.

  Because the Geng soldiers hadn't left yet, Shen Tang didn't want to go out to attract attention at this time, so he asked the owner of the tea shop to refill a pot of tea, and the two continued to stay in the tea shop to pass the time, and inquired about the identity of the prisoner on the prison car.

  The shopkeeper looked back timidly, peeked at the soldiers outside the teahouse, and said in a low voice, "It is said that it is Yushi Zhongcheng..."

   Shen Tang murmured puzzled and looked at Qishan again: "Censor Zhongcheng?"

   Don't blame her for being illiterate, as a person with amnesia, I really don't know.

  Pray for goodness: "The imperial censor Zhongcheng said by the store is named 'Tian'?"

"It seems that the surname is 'Tian'? Those military masters are still cursing about 'an old man surnamed Tian', 'What about Yushi Zhongcheng' and so on." The old soldiers at the city gate could easily kill these ordinary people. He added a pot of tea to Shen Tang, and sighed, "Don't be curious, you two, so as not to die!"

The people of Xin and Geng were at war, and the people of the two countries were the most affected. The people of Geng were a little bit better, except that the tax was half as high as before, which oppressed them so much that they couldn't breathe, but at least they couldn't die of hunger, and the people of Xin were miserable. up.

  The main battlefield of the two countries is in the country of Xin.

  The people of Xin State not only have to drain their blood to provide military supplies and food for Xin State to fight, but also face the burning, killing and looting of Geng State soldiers.

  I thought it would calm down for a while after the war, but who knew that the Lord of the Geng Kingdom adhered to the principle of "don't lose money to your brothers" and allowed his subordinates who fought against him to do evil everywhere.

  The people trembled when they saw the Geng soldiers.

  The shopkeeper saw that the two gentlemen were good-looking and handsome, so he couldn't help but remind them, lest the two juniors lose their lives recklessly.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, we have a sense of proportion." Qishan smiled and accepted the shopkeeper's kindness, and when the shopkeeper went to other places to be busy, the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a gloomy expression, "Yushi Zhongcheng is the chief of Yushitai. Gongqing Zhangzou, picket officials."

  Shen Tang had a tacit understanding: "So that Yushi Zhongcheng impeached Zheng Qiao a lot? I guess he offended people enough..."

  Thinking of the swearing just now that was full of anger and made people fully appreciate the charm of language art, how could Zheng Qiao let this one go?

  Qi Shan sighed: "It's not just as simple as offending..."

   "What else did that Tian Yushi Zhongcheng do?"

"I heard that Yu Shi Zhongcheng has an upright character, obeys the law, scouts, and avoids everything. It doesn't matter whether you are a public official or someone else, if you are caught by him, you will be impeached. Naturally, Zheng Qiao will not be missed. Since Zheng Qiao became the foreign favorite of Xin Guoguo, and this Yushi Zhongcheng was the most scolded among all the officials, and once blocked Zheng Qiao's way to go to court with a horse, and cursed in front of the people."

  Shen Tang said: "Don't you give me any face?"

Qishan: "No. After that, from all the officials in the capital to the common people, who doesn't know what superior Zheng Qiao is relying on? When Zheng Qiao returns to the country, Yu Shi Zhongcheng is also the most opposed. He asserts that if this son is allowed to return to the country , that is, the tiger returns to the mountain, and there will be endless troubles, and the nineteen recitals in a row are all begging the Lord Xin to execute Zheng Qiao."

  Hearing this, Shen Tang already guessed the end of Yushi Zhongcheng's family, she said: "Once Zheng Qiao turns over, Yushi Zhongcheng's family... no, the whole family will have a hard time..."

  Ms. Gong had helped Zheng Qiao anyway, but she ended up with a deadly death and a distribution, let alone Yushi Zhongcheng.

  Qi Shan said: "Not only."

   "Any other grudges?"

"Before Zheng Qiao returned to the country, Yushi Zhongcheng called on his disciples and family members who were officials in the court to play together and begged the Lord Xin to execute Zheng Qiao, and the Lord was under pressure and...he also had opinions on Zheng Qiao, and he had a murderous intention. ..."

   I heard that the imperial order has been written and is just waiting to be issued.

   It's just that Zheng Qiaoqi got the information in advance, and managed to eliminate the crisis invisible, and fled back to Geng Kingdom overnight.

  If he received the news later, he would be dead.

  Shen Tang: "..."

   What should I say?

   "This story tells us that when we cut the weeds, we must get rid of the roots. We should take advantage of the disease to kill us, and start early to avoid long nights and dreams."

  Qi Shan listened to Shen Tang solemnly "learn a lesson", the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Just took a sip of tea, but heard the prisoner crying like blood from outside the tea shop, followed by the prisoner yelling in tears: "You are too much of a bully! You are too much of a bully! Zheng Qiao, you are so rich! How dare you do that—how dare you!"

  Shen Tang turned his head and looked outside the tea shop.

   "What happened again?"

  Qi Shan got up and walked to the door of the tea shop to inquire in a low voice, and came back with a cold face after a while, and the aura around him was chilling: "Zheng Qiao ordered the Lord Xin to lead the old ministers to formally surrender..."

  Shen Tang was surprised: "I thought I had already surrendered..."

   "There is still a ceremony, Zheng Qiao values ​​this most."

"But if you lose, you will surrender. Isn't this normal? Xin Guo has been destroyed and the overall situation has been settled. Why is the prisoner's emotional reaction so strong? The prisoner was beaten to death, and he didn't beg for mercy or cry. Such a certainty That's how it all started crying..."

  There must be something hidden in it.

  Qi Shan clenched his hands hanging by his sides, his throat rolled, and his voice trembled imperceptibly. He closed his eyes tightly and opened them again, calmly said: "The imperial seal has been missing for a long time, Zheng Qiao was furious, and forced the king of Xin to give the throne to the only concubine under his knee..."

  Shen Tang asked with his eyes: "Then?"

   It was the humiliation of changing the name to "Chongtai" again, and it was forcing people to give up their position to Wang Ji. Zheng Qiao is a fox, and there are a lot of coquettish operations.

  Qi Shan looked complicated, and continued: "...then, Wang Ji, perform the ceremony of binding the title and bi, bare [body] and reveal [body], and lead all the officials to surrender and surrender..."

  Shen Tang: "..."

   Face-tied and title-bi refers to the ritual of surrender with hands tied behind their backs and jasper in the mouth.
