Chapter 262 A sudden storm
This sleep can only be described as a "miserable" word. Qin Mubai never knew that "sleeping" could be so painful.
Complete loss of consciousness, absolute coma!
When he woke up leisurely, he hardly had the strength to open his eyes. Lie down and can't move, and his limbs are sore and numb as soft as cotton. It's like being crushed by a ghost on the bed. I really want to turn over, but I don't have any strength.
"You are in good health and tenacious. You wake up several hours earlier than expected." A man's voice came from next to him, low and quiet, with a faint trace of pride in his voice.
Qin Mubai's heart tightened and suddenly woke up a lot. He opened his eyes with difficulty and saw that he was lying on a simple and rough bed, surrounded by the kind of spring decorations of ordinary people in ordinary houses.
He moved his eyes and saw Yin Hongzhi standing next to him.
Qin Mubai wanted to speak, but he felt that his throat was dry like a fire. He struggled to slide his throat joint, but he still couldn't make a sound.
"Come on, serve General Qin with soup." Yin Hongzhi spoke.
Two men and two women came in from the door. The men knew Zan Junmo and Liang Mengbiao. The two women's beautiful faces are hot and quite young. They both look like Jianghu characters, and there is a sense of evil between their eyebrows. Obviously, they are not good.
"I've wronged you, General Qin." Yin Hongzhi smiled and said, "These four people are specially sent by Your Highness to protect and serve you. You don't have to be polite to them. If you have any requirements, just let me know. Zan Junmo, Liang Mengbiao, General Qin has woken up. You two must not neglect your duties, let alone neglect General Qin.
"Yes, sir." The two of them hugged their fists and glanced at the two women.
The second woman nodded, brought a food box, took out the steaming food and soup from it, and then walked to Qin Mubai's bed and said, "I'll wait for the general to eat."
"Put it down." Qin Mubai still lay still and couldn't move, so he simply closed his eyes to refresh himself.
The current situation is too clear - he has been placed under house arrest!
This is not what he is most worried about. Anyway, Li You has no reason to harm himself. What worried him was - "Li You so boldly put me under house arrest, what does he want to do!"
It's almost reflexive. Qin Mubai thought of the prince!
At present, when the prince came to Xiangzhou, Li You suddenly made such a strange and bold move. Isn't it aimed at him?
"General Qin is really a calm person. It's not in vain that His Highness is so respectful and noble to you." Yin Hongzhi said with a strange smile and said, "You must be guessing now. Your Highness is doing this, right?"
"Yes." Qin Mubai did not deny it. He was weak, and he simply spit out this word.
"You are such a smart person, you should have guessed!" Yin Hongzhi smiled proudly, sat down on a chair, and drank tea slowly.
Qin Mubai closed his eyes and meditated for a while. Suddenly, he was slightly shocked and asked, "How long have I been in a coma? What time is it now?"
"It's not too long. We expect you won't wake up until noon, but we didn't expect you to wake up at least four hours earlier. Yin Hongzhi said lazily, "Now, the West River Trough should be lively, preparing for the sacrifice of Emperor Yang's Mausoleum."
Qin Mubai cried bitterly in his heart: It seems that the worst is going to happen! This ecze is so bad that I was in a coma for a day and two nights!
"What did you guess, right?" Yin Hongzhi smiled gloomfully and proudly.
"You are going to assassinate the prince." Qin Mubai still closed his eyes and the words popped out of his teeth.
"Ouch! Qin Mubai really lives up to his reputation. It's awesome, awesome!" Yin Hongzhi said in surprise, "No wonder Your Highness said that if you want to succeed, you must do something on Qin Mubai. In Xiangzhou, you are our only fear. So Your Highness said, either you come to help us, but this is unlikely. So..."
"So you dragged me into the water, right?" Qin Mubai said.
"Yes, that's right. You are so smart, hey hey!" Yin Hongzhi smiled more and more proudly.
Speaking of this, Qin Mubai finally understood.
Li You and Yin Hongzhi designed a conspiracy to assassinate the prince in Xiangzhou. Whether their assassination is successful or not, it will cause an uproar.
If it succeeds, the prince will die. As the landlord of Xiangzhou, Li Ke, the king of Wu, and I, Qin Mubai, can't escape implicated, at least it is a crime of dereliction of duty; if they fail, they can blame! At the same time, I, the person who should be the most present at the ceremony, disappeared for no reason, which can't be doubtful. If they use some more tricks to drag me into the water, it won't be difficult.
An extremely despicable conspiracy!
"The king of Qi can't think of such a vicious and insidious scheme. You must have made him." Qin Mubai said.
"I'm very proud of you." Instead, Yin Hongzhi smiled proudly and said lazily, "Didn't you scold very much yesterday? Yi Zheng said that he was awe-inspiring and generous, with the face of a loyal minister. I just want to see what kind of expression you will have when you are wronged and forced to become a traitor. Don't worry, my strategy is absolutely seamless. Whether the assassination is successful or not, Li You's enemies will be hit hard, and you will have no choice but to stand with us from now on.
"Real? You are so capable that you can only count your relatives or those who trust you. Qin Mubai smiled coldly and said, "How can the ghost trick shake the heavenly power? I advise you to stop as soon as possible. It's not too late. If it becomes a bitter drama, it will be too late to repent!"
"Young man, you don't need to teach me how to do things. You are too conceited." Yin Hongzhi snorted coldly and said, "If you saw your whole family being cut off, how would you feel? I admit that I have selfishness and I want revenge. But isn't Youer also selfish? As the saying goes, you can't slap him. Do you think he is really so stupid and willing to become a fellow with me?
"You didn't instigate it." Qin Mubai said, "He was born in the royal family, and he enjoys endless glory for a lifetime. What's wrong with being a prince of peace?"
"People have their own aspirations, and you don't understand that." Yin Hongzhi smiled and said, "When a person is hungry, he is always eager to eat a full stomach; when he is full, he will also want clothes that covers his body; when he has food and clothing, he will also think about his wife's house; with these, he will also think of Tian Qing's concubine, and he will want to get rich. People's desires are always inflated and will not be satisfied. You ask yourself, have you been willing to become mediocre and mediocre since you were not an official?
"So you took advantage of Li You's weakness and constantly instigate him to get everything you need through unconventional means, right?" Qin Mubai said.
"Within my instigation, he has never been willing to do it." Yin Hongzhi said, "Although I am his uncle, the two of us are the Lord and the minister. Can the people who are ministers really influence the Lord? You don't understand such a simple truth. At most, I'm just adding fuel to the flames, and it's he who really makes the decision. In fact, if you were Li You, you may not have today's thoughts and actions.
"Ghost!" Qin Mubai sneered, "No matter how ambitious I am, I won't think of killing my brother, harming my own country, and disobeying my father!"
"Oh, how high-sounding!" Yin Hongzhi sneered indifferently and said, "Let me make an example, General Qin. I know you are also the son of a concubine. If your father and brother never treat you as a family member, only treat you as a bastard, and don't bother to look at you, what about you? Moreover, your mother's family still has a deep blood grudge against your father's family. Can they not care about it and treat you differently? Then, your father neglects your mother and sister. Can you put up with this breath and continue to live in this family at ease?
"You are sophistry, looking for absurd excuses for your absurd deeds." Qin Mubai was too lazy to argue with him and said, "I just want to say that you will be defeated, and there will be no other ending!"
"Real? Then let's wait and see!" Yin Hongzhi was not angry. He picked up the cup and slowly drank the tea and said, "What are you still doing? Help the general up and feed the soup!" Don't worry, General Qin, there will never be any more ecze in these tea and rice. It's very safe here. No one will find it, and you will never escape. Therefore, it's better to save some energy, eat, drink and rest. Let's wait for Your Highness to come back with me and listen to the good information!"
The two women came forward at the order, and one of them climbed to **. They worked together to help Qin Mubai up, stuffed a round ball cotton back pillow behind him, delayed the soup and fed him with a spoon.
Qin Mubai didn't say much, so he stretched out his mouth and ate. Even if there is still ecze in this tea and rice, there is no choice. The current situation is that if you don't eat, you will starve to death. Moreover, if you don't eat enough, you can think about the countermeasures, and where does it come from the strength to escape?
At present, this hut is quiet, but there is a shocking conspiracy about to be staged in the tomb of Emperor Yang in the West River Trough!
If you don't find a way to stop it, the consequences are absolutely unimaginable!
A woman who fed the soup saw Qin Mubai drinking foreign broth and frowned slightly. She couldn't help smiling and said gently, "The general is really handsome and well-deserved. My two sisters are predestined to serve the general, which is also a blessing from their previous lives. But General, I also want to put the ugly words ahead. If you stay here at ease, my two sisters will listen to the general. But if the general is thinking about escaping, the two of us will also be very unreasonable.
Qin Mubai couldn't help but be a little stunned and looked at the two women. They are all in their twenties, and they really look like twins. Judging from their words and behavior, although they are young, they must be old. They all know how to look at their faces.
At this time, Zan Junmo and Liang Mengbiao next to him laughed and said, "Good girl, don't scare General Qin. By the means of the two of you, how can a fierce man escape from your hands? General Qin, please forgive the villain for talking too much, but we must tell you the truth. This pair of sisters are famous Shura Yasha. Although they are watery and graceful, they are gentle, virtuous and generous, but they are really murderous. Moreover, the killing skill is simply ridiculously exquisite.
"In short, they are all top-class killers in the world." Yin Hongzhi said briefly and said with a smile, "Because we know that General Qin is both literary and martial arts. In addition to his extreme intelligence, he also has a good martial arts skill. I'm afraid that we ordinary people can't keep the generals alone, so we have come up with this bad strategy. If there is any unreasonable offending, I hope the general will forgive you!"
Qin Mubai couldn't help but feel nervous: it seems that most of what they said is true. When I first looked at these two women, they reminded me of Su Lianqing. Moreover, their eyes were more "gruring" than Su Lianqing's. Most of them were really cruel people. There are five people "serving" for a person who has been turned upside down, which shows that their plans are detailed and rigorous!
It seems that this time, it's really troublesome!
