Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 721 Disaster
"What? The Duke's Mansion was harassed and insulted by unknown thieves? He even threatened to abduct the two children?" Que Tu put down the letter, feeling agitated.

"Master, do we want to go back to Beijing?" the guard asked.

"Who else is on duty at Shuilongguan now?" Que Tu asked in panic.

"Grandpa, only General An Tong is left here, and he said he must take care of the Duke." The guard replied.

"An Tong?" Qu Tu couldn't help but sighed.

"Ju Tu, hurry back to Luoyang, this family cannot live without you, Jiang Caibing and Xinyue have already suffered a lot, and the two children are so young, they haven't been named yet, as a father, shouldn't you go back and support this family? What should you do?" At this time, Bao Si lightly walked up to Qu Tu and gently persuaded Qu Tu.

"Si'er, if I go back by myself, won't there be no one to protect you and the little princess?" Jutu said with deep eyes.

"Ju Tu, I am the Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is very good to be able to guard this Shuilong Pass. After all, it can keep out the wind and rain, and your Duke's Mansion will collapse without you. Besides, Fang Yunhe Ma Yan and these traitors will not let you go easily, they will definitely use their poisonous schemes to torture your family, you must go back!" Bao Si smiled and covered her face.

"However, I also have thousands of reasons to stay here. I can't leave you and your child alone in this dangerous border area. I just can't do it!" Chu Tu's eyes became more and more anxious.

"Ju Tu, if you don't want to go back, then I will write to the court to deport you back, you can choose yourself!" Bao Si said very stubbornly.

A gratified smile appeared on the corner of Jutu's mouth, and he suddenly said cheerfully: "Si'er, then I will keep An Tong, you must take care of yourself!"

In this night, in a dark place, a bay red horse galloped into the bright moonlight.

In the Hall of Shuilong Shuren, Cheng Rong calmly handed over the talisman that commanded the army. The initial repair was very gratifying, and Cheng Rong was made Cheng Guogong on the spot, and many treasures were awarded. It made people like Ma Yan and Tuo Sheng burst into flames.

"Damn it, just relying on a few victories, you can become the Duke of the state, but our brothers are standing on the sidelines and drinking the northwest wind. In my opinion, we can't condone Dug Tu and Cheng Rong's party like this. Sooner or later, we must torture them well Let's go!" In Fang Yun's mansion, Tu Sheng and Ma Yan cursed endlessly, working hand in hand.

"Taiwei, I don't think our strategy has failed. We have reported carefully that Qutu has returned to the capital in secret. Let's take this opportunity to set up a trick to let him get into our net!" Ma Yan smiled strangely and offered a plan cunningly.

"What should it be?" Fang Yun asked.

"Let's try to spread a rumor while King Jin is still in Beijing, saying that Jug Tu secretly returned to Beijing to contact King Jin and prepare for rebellion. Dig Tu was smart all his life and married a fool Jiang Caibing. Let's find a way to get Jiang Caibing accepted by Jin The king's letter of treason, when the time comes, that boy Qutu will not be able to hide even if he wants to!" Tuosheng said viciously.

"Okay, it's pretty sure, but Jiang Caibing, how should we trick her?" Fang Yun asked.

"Jiang Caibing is spoiled and spoiled. Doesn't she have a few ladies and girlfriends who have been in close contact with each other? It just so happens that the wife of Xue Ju, Duke of Yue, is my wife's younger sister. As long as I use her, I can set the blame on her!" Ma Yan smiled sinisterly. Follow the plan.

A few days later, Mrs. Yue Guogong heard that Zheng Guogong's mansion was attacked by rumors and became the object of the capital's spurning, so she pretended to be sympathetic and came to visit Jiang Caibing. Sure enough, Jiang Caibing was full of complaints, and Yue Guogong's wife immediately provoked Jiang Caibing said: "Ma'am, those royal relatives are too snobbish, isn't it just that your country's father-in-law Jutu is guarding a childhood sweetheart queen mother in Shuilong Pass? Is there such a topic? I think we should find a way to deal with them." , I heard that the King of Jin has a batch of disaster relief money to distribute to the local government. This matter will be presided over by that royal relative, Prince Yu. Why don't we secretly hide these money in your Zheng Guogong's mansion so that he can't deal with the emperor. Wouldn't it be time for Madam to subdue you and beg for mercy?"

"Not bad! What a good idea! Let's do it like this!" Jiang Caibing said triumphantly.

After half a month, Que Tu rushed back to Zheng Guogong's mansion, but only dismounted in front of the mansion, and did not inform the court. Xinyue was taking care of the two children, and suddenly saw Que Tu standing warmly in her eyes, and she was overjoyed .

"Master Guo, you are finally back!" Xinyue said with a smile like a flower.

"Xinyue, you are so thin. These days are really hard for you. Jiang Caibing is a rich lady, she only knows how to pamper you, and you can handle everything by yourself. I am so sorry for you!" Jue Tu wiped Xinyue's moisture Eyelids, could not help feeling ashamed.

"By the way, my lord, why didn't you report to the imperial court this time when you returned to Beijing, even if you wrote a letter to tell the emperor!" Xinyue suddenly became worried, and quickly reminded Qu Tu.

"Don't worry about that, I'll go to the Shuilong Shuren Hall to meet the emperor right away." Jue Tu comforted Xinyue with a smile, and was about to lead the horse when suddenly a large group of imperial guards surrounded Xue Ju, Duke of Yue. Brazenly rushed into the gate of Zheng Guogong's mansion.

"Search for me!" Xue Ju smirked, and with a wave of his hand, a large group of wolves and tigers immediately ransacked Zheng's mansion. Qu Tu suddenly became furious, grabbed Xue Ju by the collar and cursed. : "Xue Ju, you dare to break into your country's mansion without authorization, so presumptuous, what do you want to do?"

Xue Ju immediately sneered and said, "Ku Tu, someone accused you of embezzling two or hundreds of thousands of relief funds, the emperor was furious, and sent an official to search your mansion, this is the emperor's order!"

"You bastard, I am a clean and honest official, how could I embezzle such a huge sum of money for no reason?" Que Tu said angrily.

"Ju Tu, after a while, I will prove that I didn't intend to frame you!" Xue Ju slyly showed the face of a villain.

"Report to the Duke of the country. In Mrs. Zheng's wing, 30 taels of silver was found in stolen money. It is indeed disaster relief money from the treasury." After a while, the imperial guards stepped forward to report the truth. Bring all the stolen money over.

More than a dozen imperial guards carried the heavy red lacquered box and placed it carefully in front of Qutu, almost making Qutu vomit blood and faint.

"Jiang Caibing, you come out, what's going on here?" Jue Tu shouted furiously, after a while, Jiang Caibing and her maid Ming'er came out tremblingly, seeing the big box in front of them, they were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground .

"Mr. Yue, I understand. This is all a trap set by you. You are trying to frame our family's Qutu. You are so vile and shameless!" Jiang Caibing suddenly came to her senses, pointing at Xue Ju and scolding loudly.

"What a tricky woman, come here, arrest Di Tu and bring him to justice immediately, and bring him to the emperor!" Xue Ju blew, and several imperial guards immediately detained Di Tu, and for a while, Zheng Guogong's mansion was in a state of turmoil.

"Qutu, you are so courageous. You dare to collude secretly with Jin Wang Shuijian, embezzle the imperial court's disaster relief money, and conspire to rebel. You really deserve death!" Suddenly, Longyan was furious and furious.

"Your Majesty, Qu Tu came back only for some family affairs in the mansion, how could he conspire to rebel? This matter has nothing to do with King Jin!" Qu Tu straightened his back and said calmly and bluntly.

"Ju Tu, don't act any more. Your mansion has found a secret letter from the King of Jin to you. It really wants you to return to Luoyang secretly. The two colluded to rebel and supported the King of Jin as the emperor. It is really rebellious. You But decapitation is a felony!" At this time, Tai Wei Fang Yun pointed at Qu Tu with a grim face and slandered loudly.

"Ju Tu, you really have violated my trust. I believe in you, so I allowed you not to return to Beijing for the time being. I didn't expect you to be ambitious and want to collude with the prince and murder my life. Tell me, how can I indulge you?" You?" Chu Xiu immediately scolded angrily.

"Your Majesty, I'm not guilty, it's because some villain deliberately spread rumors in an attempt to frame Zhongliang!" Jue Tu insisted.

"Hmph! Qutu, don't think that the queen mother can save you. If you go back to Beijing without authorization, the queen mother is also inseparable. If you find out, maybe the queen mother will also be sentenced to death!" Qutu scolded.

"You scum, shut up, beginners, let me tell you, I will bear the crime of treason alone, if you dare to kill the queen mother, I will never spare you!" Que Tu shouted angrily.
