Rebirth of a Star General

Chapter 235 The truth

On the high seat, the emperor looked at the letter presented in the hands of the palace servants, without saying a word.

He Rufei's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, which made him feel distressed. At this point, he can be quite sure that the person who entered the He family at night and stole the letter in the exquisite box was Xiao Jue. It's just... how did Xiao Jue know how the Linglong Box was opened? Entering and leaving He's family is like no one, if there is no traitor to tip off, could it be... He looked at He Yan, and remembered the "big brother" that she called him when he was fighting swords with this woman just now.

It contains thousands of emotions, like a ghost who came to ask for debts.

Is she really...

"The real General Feihong was a classmate with Wei Chen in Xianchang Hall," Xiao Jue said, "After the First World War in Huayuan, I found that General He's identity was suspicious. After returning to Beijing, he once went to Xianchang Hall. The bookstore of the Xianchang Museum was set on fire in an attempt to burn General Feihong's old handwritten notes." Xiao Jue said solemnly: "Fortunately, the arson failed. I have compared the handwritten notes of the Xianchang Hall with the military books that General Feihong had read, and the handwriting is the same. There is no resemblance to the handwriting.”

"On this point alone, how can we prove the identity of General Feihong?" Xu Jingfu spoke slowly, staring at Xiao Jue's unfathomable eyes, "People's handwriting will not remain the same forever, and with the passage of time, it is not that it may change. impossible."

He never thought that Xiao Jue was going around in such a big circle, and he was actually talking about this matter, which sounded ridiculous to the point of laughter.

He Rufei's cousin is the real Feihong general, and He Rufei is just a fake who leads the meritorious deeds and occupies the magpie's nest? How is this possible? No one knows the name of He Rufei's cousin, let alone a woman, how could she have such great ability?

He thought that Xiao Huaijin was just joking, but when he saw He Rufei's face, he was shocked.

In an instant, many things that I didn't understand in the past suddenly came to an end. He Rufei is quite famous among military generals, and he does not rely on him as a civil official. Even if he wants to participate in the battle for the succession, he is not in a hurry. .

Although Xu Jingfu once suspected it, but the result of the investigation was nothing, so the doubt was dispelled for the time being. Now it seems that what Xiao Jue said is probably true. Although I don't understand how Xiao Jue knew these secrets, He Rufei really had an accident, which was harmful to him. Thinking of this, no matter how unwilling he is, at this juncture, Xu Jingfu can only help He Rufei speak.

"This is just one of the evidences." Xiao Jue said calmly, "Bring witnesses."

Someone was taken to the square by the guards. It was a woman. She was very timid. As soon as she arrived at the square and saw so many people, she was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.

"Ms. Qin," Xiao Jue said, "in front of the emperor, tell me everything you know."

Xu Zhiheng's face was as pale as paper, and he was shaky. He has been looking for the whereabouts of Qin mama, and he had already heard the signs before, but the people who sent it out came to nothing. Later, because of Fuwang, he thought that Mother Qin was found by He Rufei, and He Rufei planned to use Mother Qin to blackmail him, but he never thought that Mother Qin was found by Xiao Jue.

When Qin mama saw the emperor, she was so frightened that she kept kowtowing, and tears almost fell: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Min women really don't know anything. Min women serve the aunt of the Xu family. Killing the eldest grandmother is the meaning of the uncle... The women only dared to watch from a distance. They pressed the eldest grandmother into the water and suffocated to death. The women heard the aunt calling the eldest grandma General He... The eyes of the eldest grandmother They were also blinded by them, the women didn't do anything, and the women really didn't know anything!"

"Oh my God! What does this woman mean? The drowned grandmother Xu was the real General Feihong. They killed people to silence them?"

"So, Mr. Xu also knows about this? Isn't Mr. Xu deeply in love with his deceased wife?"

"What kind of love is this, it's just creepy!"

Lin Shuanghe murmured, "Brother He... Is that Grandma Xu?"

Yan He couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes and wondered if he was dreaming.

Wei Xuanzhang was pushed by his colleagues, "Mr. Wei, it turns out that the General He in your academy was actually a daughter? Didn't you find out?"

Wei Xuanzhang didn't speak, his mind was full of disbelief. He didn't like He Rufei very much back then. If it wasn't for the teacher's intercession, he would not have allowed He Rufei to enter the academy in the first place. The young man was diligent and eager to learn, but unfortunately, he had no talent in terms of academics, and he was not outstanding in terms of martial arts. The Xianchang Hall trains all the talents of the future of the Great Wei Dynasty. For such ordinary people, it would be good to go to an ordinary school.

It was only later that He Rufei led the Fuyue Army to attack the Xiqiang people, which made him look at him with admiration. Those who can protect the family and the country are good sons.

Now that I think about it, when He Rufei was in the Xianchang Pavilion, he already showed a different side from other teenagers. For example, wearing a mask all day long is always alone. The gentlemen had always thought that he was inferior because of his ugliness, but now he understood it all.

It turned out that the boy who was always clumsy and hardworking was a girl, afraid of being discovered by others, so she was always alone.

He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. Wei Xuanzhang always believed that women should be at home with their husbands and children, and should not show their faces. All women have long hair and short knowledge, but now, it is difficult to say a harsh word. I only think that the dead General Feihong is respectable and pitiful.

The fifth prince Guangji quietly pulled Guang Shuo by his side: "Fourth brother, why don't I understand what they said, what happened to General Feihong?"

Guang Shuo suppressed the surprise in his heart and said, "It's nothing." Seeing He Rufei kneeling in front of the emperor, he felt sighed in his heart.

He remembered He Rufei. At first, He Rufei became famous in the Fuyue Army. Later, he found out that he was the eldest son of the He family, and was praised by everyone in the court. It is always a matter of courage for a son of a well-born family to go to war. Besides, there are many legends about General Feihong's heroic appearance among his subordinates, and he also admires it. But now Xiao Jue has revealed the truth of the matter. The brave general who rushed to kill on the battlefield regardless of his own life, was originally a weak daughter under the armor.

And after winning the battle, the merits are not hers, the praise is not hers, and even the identity is not hers. In the end, he died under the conspiracy of his own family. Listening to it, it makes people feel that God is cruel.

The emperor's eyes were heavy, and he looked at the civil servants, "Xu Zhiheng, are you aware of this?"

"No...no...the minister was wronged!" Xu Zhiheng's legs softened and he fell to his knees, "It's this bitch who slandered me! I don't have...her master! Her master He Wanru and The madam was jealous, and secretly harmed the madam, causing the madam to drown. After the minister knew about this, he had already killed He Wanru to avenge the madam, but the minister never knew that the madam was General Feihong! The minister really did not know!"

He burst into tears, and he spoke with great sincerity. Anyone who looked at him thought that this person was innocent? He Yan stared coldly at Xu Zhiheng's sullen expression, and suddenly felt that the man in front of him was no longer the same as the youth in Tsing Yi he met under the hunting grounds.

The prince couldn't help but said: "Dudu Xiao, wouldn't it be possible to convict General He with just a few notes and a few words from a servant. This is General Feihong of the Great Wei, and what's more, what is in your mouth? Isn't the truth said a bit too bizarre? Is a woman so powerful?"

Guangyan and He Rufei have no contact, but know that He Rufei seems to have some relationship with Xu Xiang. At this moment, speaking for He Rufei, not for He Rufei, nor for Xu Xiang, but to block Xiao Jue's mouth. After all, Xiao Jue is an enemy rather than a friend to him.

"On the basis of these alone, it is of course impossible to convict He Da Gongzi. Besides," he sneered, "He Da Gongzi's sins are not limited to this."

Guang Yan was stunned for a moment, Xu Jingfu secretly thought that it was not good. I just heard Xiao Jue say: "He Rufei is not collaborating with the enemy and treason, in order to avoid the identity being exposed, Huayuan fought secretly with the Uto people, and he did not hesitate to use the innocent life of my sergeant Wei in exchange for the Uto people's network. one side."

Manimbu was watching a good show on the wall, but he never expected that the fire would suddenly burn in front of him, and his face changed slightly in shock.

No one spoke.

The cold wind on the square, whistling through the flying flags, like the souls of dead grievances on the battlefield, finally arrived at the desk of grievances.

"He Rufei," Xiao Jue sneered, "you are so cowardly."

"Dudu Xiao, there are some things that are not clear, so don't make false statements." Xu Jingfu said.

Xiao Jue was unmoved, and only ordered his subordinates to present evidence in the hands of the emperor.

"Master He's house was stolen, saying that it was theft of antiques and cultural relics, and the wealth outside the area made the He family panic, and the whole city was chasing the people who stole the money." Xiao Jue said lightly, "Why is this, because Master He I also know that once the stolen items are made public, he will definitely lose his reputation."

He Rufei gritted his teeth and said, "You..."

"Three letters," the young man had already turned to the emperor, "two letters are for dealings with the Uto people, one letter," he glanced at Xu Jingfu, the corners of his lips curved, "because of Xu Xiang."

Emperor Wenxuan raised his eyes sharply.

If it is said that the previous He Rufei incident only shocked and inconceivable to him, but Xiao Jue's last sentence made him feel a sense of anger and a huge sense of betrayal.

Xu Jingfu...and the Uto people?

He is a mediocre emperor. He likes to be a hands-off shopkeeper, but it does not mean that he likes others to play with him in applause. This tramples on the dignity of the heavenly family. How can he bear it?

Xu Jingfu was stunned for a moment, knelt down subconsciously, and opened his mouth to say: "Your Majesty, this old minister has no two hearts. I don't know where Dudu Xiao has forged the letter, so he slandered the old minister so much. The heart of the old minister for His Majesty can be learned from heaven and earth. !"

He didn't know where Xiao Jue got the letter, nor when He Rufei hid the letter. For He Rufei, he didn't use too much brains, a tyrannical general, not worth bothering about. But it was his carelessness that he pushed himself into the fire pit, and He Rufei actually kept a hand. He kept a letter from somewhere and did not destroy it. And it was discovered by Xiao Jue!

Emperor Wenxuan looked at the letter in his hand, and the more he looked, the darker his face became. In the end, there was no expression at all.

Whether the letter is true or not, he already knew in his heart. For so many years, Xu Jingfu was by his side, and he turned one eye and closed the other, just thinking about the assistance of Xu Jingfu when he first ascended the throne. He thinks he is a human emperor, different from the previous emperors, but now it seems that the affection between the monarch and his ministers is not worth mentioning in the eyes of some people. He gave Xu Jingfu power and status, but the other party was still not satisfied.

As soon as the four words of collaborating with the enemy and treason came out, he looked at Xu Jingfu's eyes, and he no longer had any affection from the past.

"Captain Xiao," among the generals, Yan He suddenly asked loudly, "If He Rufei really abandoned the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers in the Huayuan battle for his own selfish desires?"

Xiao Jue didn't speak and looked at him calmly.

Yan He's eyes suddenly turned red.

The generals are different from the literati. They go to the battlefield and carry knives and guns. The brothers and comrades who are born and die on the battlefield have different emotions from others. When military generals fight, they wish they could save one more person. What they hate the most is unnecessary sacrifice, but there are such beasts who sell their own people and watch them go to death. One life.

Yan He took a deep breath, stood up, and knelt down in front of Emperor Wenxuan: "Please, Your Majesty, punish He Rufei! Avenge the innocent soldiers who died in the first battle of Huayuan!"

The generals were stunned at first, then fell silent. Finally, they unloaded their swords and spears and knelt down, "Please, Your Majesty, severely punish He Rufei and avenge the innocent soldiers who died in the first battle of Huayuan!"

The shouting was so loud that Maningbu secretly thought that it was not good. When he looked at Emperor Wenxuan again, his expression was also shaken.

Xiao Jue said in a cold voice, "The Uto people secretly colluded with the officials of the DPRK and China, causing the Huayuan World War I to ruin life and soldiers. Now they pretend to seek peace, but in fact they hide evil intentions, Your Majesty," Xiao Jue leaned over and saluted, "The Uto people's wolf ambitions, If it is obvious, please ask Your Majesty to take back the matter of seeking peace. As for the establishment of a judiciary in the Great Wei Dynasty, it is even more unreal. The most urgent task now is to eliminate which officials in the Qing Dynasty are in cahoots with the Utuo people."

Xu Jingfu reprimanded: "Xiao Huaijin, you are spitting blood!"

"The Qing people are self-cleaning, why should Xu Xiang be excited." Xiao Jue gave him a stingy look, looked directly at Emperor Wen Xuan, and said, "Please take back your life."

Emperor Wen Xuan suddenly felt tired.

He has been an emperor for so many years, and there are not many relaxing days. Most of the time, he is tired, but there has never been a time like today that made him feel really old. The old man even sat in this position. It feels too high and too cold.

"Father," the fourth prince Guang Shuo, who had not spoken for a long time, finally stood up and said to Emperor Wen Xuan, "Whether what Governor Xiao said is true or false, at this moment, the friendship with Utuo Kingdom must be Re-negotiation. As for Young Master He and Lord Xu... Until the truth is revealed, we cannot let it go. The matter of General Feihong is no trivial matter. If what Governor Xiao said is true, all those involved in this matter will have nothing to do with it."

In these words, Xu Jingfu was also included.

Xu Jingfu's throat was sweet, but he felt a breath of air in his chest, which made him want to vomit blood. The fourth prince, Guang Shuo, has always behaved well. Although he supports the crown prince Guangyan and is wary of Guangshuo, in Xu Jingfu's heart, Guangshuo never has the courage to fight for the throne. If there was, it would not have been delayed until now. Guang Shuo's temperament resembles that of Emperor Wen Xuan, with a bit of the useless kindness of the emperor's family, so he is destined to be inferior to Guang Yan.

At this moment, Guang Shuo's opening will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Sure enough, Emperor Wen Xuan glanced at Guang Shuo. At this juncture, he did not dislike Guang Shuo's meddling in political affairs, but felt that Guang Shuo's words seemed to provide a solution to the situation in front of him, which made him wake up from the evil feeling of being betrayed.

Xu Jingfu looked at Emperor Wenxuan's face, and his heart was not good. If Emperor Wenxuan opened his mouth at this moment and accepted Guangshuo's words, then He Rufei would have no chance to turn around. He Rufei didn't have a chance to turn around, and that letter would be the evidence of his crucifixion. He couldn't be here. He was taken away at this time, leaving only one extension outside. That idiot, there was no way to kill him. Fishing it out, and Xiao Huaijin will not let this opportunity pass, once today is over, he will have no chance of making a comeback!

"Your Majesty..." Xu Jingfu burst into tears, "The old minister has been wronged, and the old minister thinks that there is no truth in what Governor Xiao said, and it is all fabricated nonsense. It is said that General Feihong and General Feng Yun have always been at odds, but now it seems that It's true. It's just that the old minister doesn't know how General He provokes Dudu Xiao, so he makes Dudu Xiao do such a cruel thing!"

Even at this time, he still didn't give up.

"Dudu Xiao didn't lie!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded, sharp and piercing.

He Yan was startled, and when he looked back, he saw a woman stumbling over in the crowd. The woman's clothes were dirty. The hair is also disheveled, but the appearance is beautiful.

It turned out to be Mrs. He Er.

He Yan was stunned, and wanted to step forward, but he was afraid of being discovered, so he had to stand in place.

Xiao Jue was also surprised, He Rufei's expression was shocked, but Mrs. He didn't even look at the crowd, she jumped to the sky below the Tianxing stage, facing Emperor Wenxuan's body, and said loudly: "The minister's wife can testify, Your Majesty, this minister Women can testify. He Rufei is not a general Feihong at all, he is a fake. When He Rufei was born with my daughter, he was very weak. The doctor asserted that He Rufei would not live to be three years old. , then let my daughter He Yan disguise herself as a man and exchange identities with He Rufei."

He Yan's hands were shaking slightly.

Mrs. He took two steps forward, "My daughter went to the battlefield at the age of sixteen, and she was lucky enough to get military exploits. When she returned to Beijing, He Rufei's body had recovered. Everyone. It's nothing at all," she gasped and pointed at He Rufei, who was not far away, "but they are crazy! In order to fear that their identity will be revealed, they fed my daughter poison, which blinded her first. eyes, and drowned her in the pond."

"Dudu Xiao did not lie to you, Your Majesty," Mrs. He shouted, "My daughter He Yan is the real General Feihong!"
