Chapter Seventy-Seven
Wei Hu immediately knelt down in front of Gongsun Shangshu and said, "You deserve to die. I hope Lord Shangshu will save my life. I am a great kindness and will never be forgotten."
Gongsun Shangshu said in a deep voice: "In your situation, you and your father have reached the point where you and your father cannot coexist. If your father comes back, you will die! If your father does not come back, you will live! You must be one of the two, there is no third rule.
There is still a way to go, think about it, is this the case?
Let me tell you another piece of news. Your brother Wei Jie and stepmother Huang Ziqiong are living well now and are waiting for your father to come back. They are really looking forward to being reunited and sharing the happiness of family."
Wei Hu's face was extremely ugly, and a sinister look flashed across his eyes.
Wei Hu: "Please give me some advice, Master Shangshu. As long as you let the villain survive this disaster, even if you are unable to repay your kindness in this life, you will still be able to repay your kindness in the next life."
Gongsun Yuan asked seriously: "Are you telling the truth?"
Wei Hu: "If you don't mean what you say, the sky will strike like lightning!"
Gongsun Yuan: "Well, let me give you an idea. If you provide a piece of evidence that your father is a collaborator, your father will be in jail and will never come back. Your stepmother and brother will also be unable to
Reunited with him."
Wei Hu was shocked: "This...if Emperor Wei knows about it, what should he do?"
Gongsun Yuan: "Don't worry, the emperor will soon become the Supreme Emperor, and the eldest prince will ascend the throne. At that time, I will have the final say. What you do is my idea, what else can I do to you? Not only can I not
If I blame you, I will give you the hereditary title of general."
Wei Hu's heart moved. Shangshu wanted to force the emperor to abdicate and let the eldest prince take the throne. To successfully accomplish this, of course, he had to get rid of the important officials around Emperor Wei. Wei Feng was a die-hard subordinate of Emperor Wei and had a high level of cultivation.
, became the first person that the First Prince’s faction had to deal with.
To deal with such powerful people, collaborating with the enemy is the best choice and the only effective way.
Wei Hu was very entangled. He falsely accused his father. There might not be such a son in the world, but if he didn't do this, there was only one way to die. He could only let Wei Jie and his son go to the Wei family to reunite and share family happiness, and he had no choice but to go to the Wei family.
Go to the underworld and experience the pain of hell with your biological mother.
Wei Hu said to Gongsun Yuan: "This matter is important. Please allow me to think about it carefully and get back to you tomorrow, okay?"
Of course Gongsun Yuan believed that haste makes waste, so he smiled lightly and said meaningfully: "Okay, I will come tomorrow to hear your right choice!"
As soon as Gongsun Yuan left, Wei Hu called Gongshu Mou over for discussion. Wei Hu told Gongshu Mou what Gongsun Yuan said without missing a word.
Uncle Gongshu thought for a long time and then said: "This time your decision is a gamble. If you win the gamble, you will rise to great heights.
If you lose the bet, your body and soul will disappear, and you will die forever.
And this gamble is not your choice, you have to gamble.
If you don't agree to cooperate with Shangshu, he can kill you for any crime you want. For example, in the case of your treatment of Wei Jie's mother and son, after killing you, your father will thank Gongsun Shangshu and say that he did a good job.
.So this matter seems to be a dead end with no solution!
However, on the other hand, it was also an opportunity: the eldest prince was born to the queen and was the eldest son, so his accession to the throne was justifiable.
Gongsun Yuan has power in both the government and the public, and Marshal Zou Chiping is his man. If he wants to force the palace, he has an 80% success rate.
What you are most worried about is that the world will say that you falsely accused your father and be scolded by the world. But then again, if the eldest prince ascends the throne, you will be a loyal minister.
Since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. When there is a conflict between loyalty and filial piety, there is nothing wrong with choosing loyalty to the emperor.
So I think that if you want to survive, cooperating with Gongsun Shangshu is the only option."
Wei Hu walked back and forth a few times in thought, then gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Okay, cooperate with them."
The next day Gongsun Shangshu came to the general's mansion and took away the private correspondence between Wei Feng and Dayan Kingdom from Wei Hu.
Next, Commander Zou came to the General's Mansion as a matter of course, and told Wei Hu: "Commander Wei Tong rushed out of the border town with fifty people to the capital to file a complaint and redress Wei Feng's grievances. I killed fifty people, but the leader
Wei Tong escaped. As soon as he arrives in the capital, he will definitely come to you. I will wait for him at your house. When the time comes, you will cooperate with me to capture him!"
Sure enough, as Commander Zou expected, Wei Tong came to the capital and went to the general's mansion to find Wei Hu. However, Wei Tong never dreamed that while he was complaining about Wei Hu's father, Wei Hu would conspire with others to take his life.
Commander Zou also did not expect that Wei Tong's cultivation level suddenly improved so much, from being three levels below him to one level above him. Moreover, since he was practicing both Qi and Body training, his combat power actually overwhelmed him.
If he hadn't been in the General's Mansion, he would have died as a commander.
Wei Hu told Gong Shumou about this strange incident, and Gong Shumou said: "Wei Tong must have met the same person who killed Yin Tu.
The person who killed Yin Tu had a lower level of cultivation than Yin Tu, but because he was a strong man of dual cultivation who could refine his energy and body, his combat power was even more powerful than that of Yin Tu. Killing Yin Tu was not difficult at all, and also destroyed the entire Dark Night Gate
The killers killed them all.
But this is fine, the land deed and the land deed given to Dark Night Gate are useless, the field is still your field, the land is still your land, and you will lose more than 100,000 taels of silver."
Wei Hu: "But cultivation is a matter of long-term practice, and it will come naturally. How come he rose to four levels in two months?"
Gong Shumou: "It's just a coincidence. There are many things in the world that cannot be explained clearly."
Wei Hu: "Is there any news about Niu Ben and Gou Qi?"
Gong Shumou: "There is news. They are living in seclusion in a small fishing village by the sea. The two families are together. I have sent them a letter asking them to come back. They have lived a very hard life in Xiaoyu Village and have wanted to come back for a long time.
I was just afraid of someone who wanted to kill someone, so I stayed on the beach all the time.
I told him that the person who killed Yin Tu had a personal grudge against Yin Tu. The reason why he killed other people was because the others thought that this person was at the end of his strength after a long battle and wanted to kill the tiger by a pack of wolves and snatch what he got from Yin Tu.
The ring he got on his hand made him angry, so he killed the other killers together."
Wei Hu: "Okay! When the two of them come, we will rebuild the Dark Night Gate, strengthen our power, and expand our family business. It will be hard to live with such a tight schedule!"
Gong Shumou: "Yes, if the Wei family and the Anye Sect had united long ago, how could Wei Jie, mother and son survive until now."
These two people still don't know that Wei Jie killed Yin Tu and Wei Jie destroyed the Dark Night Gate. They only thought it was done by one of Yin Tu's enemies.
Just as Wei Jie imagined, Wei Feng after his disguise was not recognized along the way, and people looking for Wei Feng were everywhere. In every city he passed along the way, there were portraits of wanted Wei Feng at every gate.
The closer we get to the capital, the more intense the atmosphere is to arrest Wei Feng. Once we get to the capital, the interrogation of those entering the city becomes even stricter.
A middle-aged soldier guarding the city gate saw something wrong with Wei Feng and his party, and said to the other soldiers: "That woman seems to be Wei Feng's woman. Do you want to keep her and report to Commander Wang?"
Another soldier said: "You are wrong. Wei Feng's woman escaped from the general's palace with her son more than ten years ago and disappeared without a trace. How could she appear here? She is not afraid that Wei Hu will kill her. She herself
Delivered to your door?”
At this time, General Wang who was guarding the gate came. The soldier who recognized Huang Ziqiong pointed at Huang Ziqiong and said, "The woman I recognize is Wei Feng's wife Xu Xian. Do you want to arrest her for questioning?"
Commander Wang was startled and immediately identified the group of five people and five cavalry carefully. His heart was beating wildly with shock. He immediately suppressed his excitement and said to the five of them: "Please come to my Commander-in-Chief Mansion to sit for a while. I have something to do."
Ask."
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, the General bowed his head to Wei Feng. Wei Feng quickly stopped and said, "General, what do you mean?"
The commander-in-chief hurriedly introduced himself: "The villain Wang Qiang is a subordinate of Admiral Huang. The admiral secretly told me that the general may come to the city in the next few days, and ordered me to carefully check the people entering the city. Once I find the general, I will
Leave the general behind and inform him."
Wen Qian asked suspiciously: "You are Admiral Huang's subordinate, so do you recognize me?"
Wang Qiang: "I have been to the admiral's house several times, and of course I saw Miss Wen Qian. And I saw that all five of your horses are royal horses. I also saw that the general had disguised himself, and his subordinates recognized him.
