Chapter 519 His Highness the Prince's Sharpshooting
"Why?" Shen Xihe asked.

Geng Liangcheng was Shen Yun'an's martial arts enlightenment teacher. Shen Xihe vaguely remembered that when she was young, the Turks wanted to take advantage of the eunuch chaos in the court to occupy the Northwest. government.

Geng Liangcheng and Mrs. Geng cared for them both, except for a little more respect, they were no different from their parents.

"Because of Geng Zhongji." Shen Yueshan said.

Geng Zhongji?Shen Xihe felt strange for a moment, but she quickly realized that this was the only child of Geng Liangcheng and his wife.

Geng Zhongji was actually several years older than Shen Yun'an, but he was separated during the war and was found five years ago. He was a rascal and idler at that time.

Bullying the market, accepting bribes along the street, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, Geng Liangcheng also beat and scolded cruelly, and threw him into the barracks to hone his skills, but Geng Zhongji never changed. He knew clearly that Geng Liangcheng and his wife would not put him Even if he was beaten to death, he was thick-skinned and thick-skinned without pain or itching. After the beating, he remained the same.

Later, she went to her uncle's house, and she didn't know what happened. After she came back, Geng Zhongji was executed by father.

When she came back, she also asked about it. Everyone kept secrets and didn't want to talk to her. She didn't have a good impression of Geng Zhongji, so she didn't ask.

"Why did he die?" Shen Xihe asked again.

So much so that Geng Liangcheng wanted to rebel because of him.

"He committed a serious crime, and the sufferer came before me. When I interrogated him, he confessed without hesitation, and he had nothing to fear..." Shen Yueshan said very simply.

Shen Xihe didn't ask in detail, and Shen Yueshan was obviously unwilling to tell her the details.

"When I came back that year, I heard about Geng Zhongji and went to visit Uncle Geng and Second Aunt. They treated me the same as before." Geng Liangcheng went for the second time, and Shen Xihe called his wife Second Aunt.

Shen Yueshan is the only son, and the Shen family actually did not have many children. Shen Xihe's grandfather once had three brothers, but they all died in the war without leaving a son and a half daughter. The grandfather had four children, and only the father survived. The dissolute inaction caused the Northwest to be constantly under the chaos of war. During the war, how many families of Northwest generals withered?

"In these years, we haven't mentioned this matter, and the husband and wife have never been unfamiliar with me and your brothers and sisters..." There was a bitterness in Shen Yueshan's eyes, "Now that I think about it, how can I have no grievances? It is reasonable to have a grudge, and it is deeply hidden if there is no grudge."

"How much did Uncle Geng know, and how much did he tell His Majesty?" Shen Xihe was more concerned about this.

Geng Liangcheng has gained Shen Yueshan's trust too much, and he has never hidden anything from Geng Liangcheng in the Northwest these years, Shen Yueshan can be said to be confidant to him.

"Fortunately, I don't have ambitions for my father." Shen Yueshan glanced at Xiao Huayong, who began to serve soup, "What he knows is not afraid of being known by His Majesty, at most, he can tell His Majesty that the prosperity of the Northwest these years has been greatly reduced by our Shen family. nothing but wealth."

As for the military strength in the northwest and the strength of the Shen family army, it would be better for His Majesty to know, so he would not dare to act rashly.

More about the defense of the Northwest, Geng Liangcheng is not a fool, even if he is very selfish, he will not sacrifice so many innocent people in the Northwest, and he knows that if he reveals everything to His Majesty, he will lose his use value .

"Does he want his father-in-law's life, or his power?" Xiao Huayong handed the first bowl of soup to Shen Yueshan.

Shen Yueshan took it, and took a deep look at Xiao Huayong: "What's the difference?"

"If it's the former, he will still care about the people in the northwest; if it's the latter..." Xiao Huayong handed the second bowl to Shen Xihe.

People will be blinded by hatred, but it may not necessarily annihilate their humanity because of hatred; however, the desire for power can easily change a person beyond recognition and become a slave driven by power.

Shen Yueshan took a sip of the soup, and the warm current flowed down his throat to his intestines and stomach. Obviously his hands and feet were not cold, but at this moment he could feel a warmth enveloping his limbs. He breathed a long sigh of relief: "I can't be sure at this moment whether he is Betray because of hate, or maybe hate is just the reason for rebellion."

The brother who used to talk about everything has finally come to this point, he can't see clearly, it's hard to say.

"If the father-in-law believes in the son-in-law, the son-in-law asserts that he must be the latter." Xiao Huayong also sat down with a bowl of soup.

Shen Xihe and Shen Yueshan looked at him together, and Shen Yueshan asked: "Why are you so sure?"

"It's just because he was exposed in front of his father-in-law." Xiao Huayong smiled, "I don't know about this general, but I know His Majesty. My father-in-law disappeared suddenly, and I couldn't find it for a long time. With the ability of my father-in-law, it really shouldn't be like this. His Majesty must have suspected that the disappearance of his father-in-law was a trick arranged by his father-in-law.

Why did the father-in-law set up a situation like this?How to get around it, you have to know that the father-in-law has a heavy responsibility, disappeared for no reason, and did not report to the court, it is reasonable for His Majesty to use this to punish the father-in-law.

His Majesty recalled what reason could make his father-in-law do this, and he was confident that he would pursue it afterwards.

In this way, what is more reasonable than finding out the rebels in the Northwest? "

No one would believe the scene of Shen Yueshan's disappearance. The main reason was just to let Shen Xihe watch his only brother get married in a logical manner. .

They no longer have pure family affection in their eyes, and they will see extremely complicated actions of high-ranking and powerful people.

Xiao Huayong's words were unanimously approved by Shen Xi and his father and daughter.

"Since Your Majesty has thought of this, it is natural to order his men not to act rashly." Xiao Huayong concluded, "With His Majesty's order, he still moved, which aroused the suspicion of his father-in-law, which means...he has no respect for his father-in-law. Missing this opportunity was so exciting that I ignored His Majesty's instructions."

If he just purely hated Shen Yueshan, he shouldn't have made any changes at this time, and sometimes he went to assassinate Shen Yueshan in the name of looking for Shen Yueshan.How could he start jumping up and down among the Northwest army?

Shen Yueshan squeezed the rough porcelain bowl tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulged, he lowered his head and drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp, raised his hand and smashed the empty bowl on the ground.

The broken teacup is Shen Yueshan's mood at the moment.

Before that, Shen Yueshan's betrayal of Geng Liangcheng was painful, melancholy and complicated.

That's why he got very drunk, and when Xiao Huayong put this ugly fact in front of him, he was heartbroken and furious.

Didn't Shen Yueshan think that Geng Liangcheng wanted to be the next Northwest King?
He definitely wanted it, but he didn't want to believe it. Those were brothers who were born and died, fought bloody battles, and guarded one side together!

How could he be blinded by the desire for power?
