Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 584 242. The princes question the crime (the Shangguan princes went to Nanxiang to raise troops to question the crime)

On this day, the Shangguan princes suddenly arrived in Nanxiang. After a long journey, they first settled in the post house where their younger brother was stationed.

On this day, Marquis Shangguan was watching Situ Lan's stunning performance of the opera "Ambush from Flying Daggers" under the stage of He Yiguan——

At this time, Dongfang Shuo came in from the side door of the theater, raised his fists with his hands, and saluted him.

Fascinated by the sight, Marquis Shangguan waved his hand, and Dongfang Shuo came up to the house and whispered: "Your Majesty, the eldest young master is here——"

Hearing this, Shangguan Marquis curled up the corner of his mouth slightly, snorted slightly, raised a mysterious smile on his face, and nodded slightly.

"I understand, follow the plan, go down -"

Dongfang Shuo stood up straight, lowered his head and bowed, slowly took two steps back, turned around and walked towards the door.

Marquis Shangguan was in a good mood, looking at the stage where a good play was being performed——

"House of Flying Daggers" tells the story:
  Liu Bang's Han army and Xiang Yu's Chu army launched a struggle to conquer the Central Plains and dominate the world. The Chu and Han sides had been engaged in a war for several years. By the time of the decisive battle at Gaixia, Liu Bang surrounded Xiang Yu's 100,000 men with an absolute superiority of 300,000 troops. Late at night, Zhang Liang played the flute and the soldiers sang Chu songs, which made the Chu army feel desperate and forced Xiang Yu to break out with 800 cavalry overnight. The Han army pursued with 5,000 cavalry, and finally a duel began by the Wu River. Xiang Yu drew his sword and committed suicide because he was outnumbered. , the Han army achieved a brilliant victory.

When two tigers fight, one will be injured. Even in the powerful Xiang Yu, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. In the end, he can only become a generation of heroes in the long history...

I don't know why, but today's Marquis Shangguan, the moment when he saw Yu Ji, played by Situ Lan, commit suicide and bid farewell to the overlord Xiang Yu, had a special flavor.

At this time, Dongfang Shuo hurriedly led the Shangguan princes and a group of soldiers behind the princes and princes.

The faces of the Shangguan princes were slightly frightened and angry, clearly indicating that they had tried their best to suppress the situation and not have an attack.

Shangguan Marquis is quite stable in his formation. Seeing that the mighty Qinglong Army and his entourage have surrounded the entire theater, he is as stable as a mountain and has a calm temperament.

The Marquis of Shangguan pretended to be in his old posture, staring intently at the top of the stage. Situ Lan's performance of Yu Ji was lifelike, with every frown, smile, nudge and sneer, it can be said that the performance was superb - it is no wonder that the Marquis of Shangguan is particularly partial sometimes. This Situ Lan, this kid's attainments in opera are indeed extraordinary.

It is rare for a Shangguan prince to have such a suppressed temper, and his face is about to explode. Such an expression is the first time Shangguan Marquis has ever seen it. Sure enough, this incident has touched his reverse scale.

The Shangguan princes looked at their younger brother, who looked calm and composed, completely immersed in the stage. Even though his heart was in turmoil, his face was still calm. He took a breath slowly, waved his sleeves with one hand, and walked away behind him. of soldiers and mercenaries.

The mercenaries did not withdraw, but closely observed the movements of their master not far away.

The Shangguan princes descended slowly, sat side by side with the Shangguan Marquis, and said calmly - "Second brother, this is really interesting. Which show are you watching?"

Shangguan Marquis pretended to be in his usual posture and said with a smile: "Haha, eldest brother is in such a good mood today. Why did he suddenly come to the land of Nanxiang without informing him in advance? My second brother should be well prepared and make preparations for the arrival." Ichiban.”

The Shangguan princes snorted and said: "I don't dare. The second brother is now very capable. There are some things that you don't need to ask the elder brother's opinion. You can kill them first and then report them later? Since the second brother is like this, I, the elder brother, will not see you like this when I suddenly make a surprise attack." Isn’t it?"

The Marquis of Shangguan had already known the purpose of the Shangguan princes' visit, but he was still used to acting. After hearing these words, he looked slightly surprised. He slowly looked back, observing his words and expressions, his face was even more frowning, and he hesitated and panicked -

"Brother...what do you mean by that? Did the second brother do something to make you unhappy?"

Why don't the Shangguan princes know the nature of his second brother? On the surface, he looks strong and full of strength, but his inner thoughts may not be much simpler than that of an old fox like himself.

The Shangguan princes glanced sideways, and with a good tone, they came to question the crime: "Second brother, you destroyed Huang Shiliang without making a sound. Shouldn't you at least inform me and the king's father? Although you are the supervisor of the black market, but the black market The relationship is complicated and inconspicuous, but it is the link between Nanxiang and Dongcang. It is true that you have the power to kill the traitors in the black market, but regarding Huang Shiliang, the second brother - you are rude! Now the royal father is very angry, you see How will you explain it when you go back?"

Marquis Shangguan knew exactly why the king's father was angry - it was probably because his evil brother, the king, complained first and added fuel and jealousy to provoke the king's father's anger.

And when he came in front of him, he showed another hypocritical face, pretending to be powerful and preaching imperial edicts. The Marquis of Shangguan had already learned this method from Shangguan princes many years ago.

The Marquis of Shangguan would not refute the Shangguan princes face to face, but chose to cooperate with the acting, so he said in great horror——

"Brother! What's going on? I'm just handling this matter impartially. Why did it suddenly reach the ears of the king's father? Brother! You have to help the second brother! Otherwise, the second brother What should I do when I go back?"

The Shangguan princes were expressionless and said with a stern look: "Now you know how to ask for help from me, your elder brother? Why did you go there earlier? Do you know that Huang Shiliang was the censor appointed by the king's father and specially sent to Nanxiang to lurk in the land of Nanxiang? The black market is in charge. I have also seen your twists and turns. The most serious crime mentioned above is that Huang Shiliang deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates, stole the Tianmen spirit girl, kept it for personal use, and mixed the witch blood into high positions in the wealthy family. Did you know The king's father has long known these things, and the Tianmen spirit girl who was betrayed was also the king's father's order, because it was previously found that these three Tianmen women were all undercover spies that the Tianmen wanted to place in our wealthy clan. Huang Shiliang Acting according to the order, I just detained the female cultivator of Tianmen!"

After hearing this, Marquis Shangguan's temperament suddenly changed. He shouted and stopped Situ Lan's drama: "Stop! That's it for today's "House of Flying Daggers". You all go down first. I have something to say to the eldest son alone!" Dongfang Shuo, hurry up and make a pot of good tea and bring it over quickly."

When Situ Lan saw the solemn expression on Marquis Shangguan's face, he stopped singing with a wink, waved his hand, and left the stage quickly with his troupe.

After Shangguan Marquis waited for everyone to evacuate, Dongfang Shuo was very smart and watched the theater door.

At this point, Shangguan Marquis just took off all his disguises, and begged with a pitiful look on his face: "Brother! Second brother, it was really unintentional. I didn't mean to kill Huang Shiliang. I didn't want Dongfang Shuo to do it." He and Situ Lan arrested him, but for some unknown reason, female cultivators from Tianmen and Taoist priests got in. That Huang Shiliang died at the hands of a man named Mishi Orphan. You also know that swords have no eyes on the battlefield. This Huang Shiliang is not in the hands of our Qinglong Army, you can’t blame me!!! Please also have a nice word with my father, the second brother is wronged!!!"
