The king behind the empress

Chapter 123 An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
On the sentry post, after Qiu Wuping relayed Chen Jiu's death-minded words, Mo Zizai was silent for a moment.

He can understand that Chen Jiu betrayed his brother for the sake of his family, and he can also understand that Chen Jiu gave up his family again for the sake of loyalty, but understanding does not mean that he can accept it.

He could understand it all because of his strong comprehension ability, but in his opinion, Chen Jiu's operation was simply mentally retarded.

First, because the family abandoned loyalty and brothers, and now because of loyalty and guilt, the family is also abandoned. You have gone back and forth in a big circle, and you have tossed everything away. What are you trying to do?

Jumping back and forth repeatedly, is it to send all relatives and friends away?

"His love is merciful, but his crime is unforgivable."

Mo Zizai said this sentence in a rather complicated tone. The tragic consequences were largely due to Chen Jiu's indecision. Now that he has gone through all this, Chen Jiu has become decisive, but it is too late .

Zhou Qi's face on the side was very ugly. He didn't know what to say. Chen Jiu's betrayal was a fact, but the main reason was because Yu Zhisi had been suppressed in the past few years. He didn't do enough to protect his subordinates, otherwise he wouldn't This happened.

"My lord, I cannot shirk my responsibility for this matter."

"What does it have to do with you?"

Mo Zizai waved his hand. He knew that Zhou Qi blamed himself and felt that it was his ineffective leadership, but he couldn't be blamed for it.

The Yuzhi Division has not been established for many years, and the strongest among them is Zhou Qi, a warrior in the shadow realm. The reason why the Yuzhi Division was able to arrest the court officials without any scruples and made all the officials panic is completely dependent on the late emperor It's just the power and influence.

In short, what they are afraid of is not Yu Zhiji, but Mo Congyi behind Yu Zhisi.

So after Mo Congyi's death, most of the officials in the court couldn't wait to start targeting Yu Zhisi.

On the surface and in the dark, all kinds of methods emerged one after another, and even when it developed to the worst, someone actually attacked and killed Yu Zhisi's personnel in the street.

Under the circumstances at that time, not to mention that Zhou Qiren was in the imperial tomb, even the capital was useless.

That's why Zhou Qi, who was forced to do nothing, gave the order to disperse Yu Zhisi directly and let them turn from light to dark. In this way, there was a lot less targeting, and only two thousand Yu Zhiwei barely survived.

Therefore, this situation cannot be blamed on Zhou Qi at all, it can only be blamed on the adult behind Hu Wei.

Thinking of this, Mo Zizai's face became very cold, and he said murderously: "I would like to know who is the adult behind Hu Wei."

"Threatening someone with the life of his whole family is really cruel. I want to see what choice he will make if someone threatens him with his whole family."

Because of the memory of his previous life, Mo Zizai has become much more civilized now. For example, he seldom does implicated things now. Even those who ransacked his house before, most of them just killed the main criminal and exiled the whole family. .

But now he really wants to kill that adult's whole family, to let him know what an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth are.

……

In Zheng Anmin's courtyard, Chen Jiu bowed to Zheng Anmin and said: "Master Zheng, Chen Jiu has no intention of living, but Chen Jiu dare not hide who is the person who is secretly targeting me, Yu Zhisi."

"Behind me, the person who threatened me with the lives of my whole family is the current servant of the household department, Hu Xiaosheng."

When talking about Hu Xiaosheng, there was a trace of hatred in Chen Jiu's eyes, but it quickly vanished, because he knew that, in his capacity, it was simply unrealistic to want to take revenge on a third grader who was in charge of practical affairs.

"I also hope that Mr. Zheng can tell the boss the identity of this person, so that the boss must be careful about this person."

"Wait..."

Hearing the name Chen Jiu mentioned, Zheng Anmin couldn't help being stunned, "Who did you just mention?"

"The left servant of the household department, Hu Xiaosheng."

Seeing Zheng Anmin's expression, Chen Jiu thought that Zheng Anmin didn't believe him. After repeating it, he said: "The person who often meets us is the priest Yuanwailang. He said that behind him is Hu Xiaosheng, the left servant of the household department. After checking for a long time, it is confirmed that he is telling the truth, and the person behind him is indeed Hu Xiaosheng, the left servant of the household department."

"If Mr. Zheng doesn't believe it, you can break open the beams of my old house later. I have hidden evidence in the beams."

After confirming that the Hu Xiaosheng Chen Jiu mentioned was the Hu Xiaosheng he knew, Zheng Anmin couldn't help but feel a little weird. They ordinary Yuzhiwei had no information and didn't know anything, but this didn't mean that he, the commander, knew nothing Know.

"No need, your evidence is no longer needed, let's keep the beams from your family."

Hearing what Zheng Anmin said, Chen Jiu misunderstood Zheng Anmin's meaning, his eyes dimmed slightly, but he didn't say anything, "Subordinate, I understand."

Seeing Chen Jiu's expression, Zheng Anming knew that he had misunderstood, and explained, "You think too much. The reason why I said that your evidence is useless is because Hu Xiaosheng has already been killed by the boss."

"It's been dead for several days. Now, the grass on the grave must have grown."

"Dead... dead?"

Chen Jiu's eyes were originally Gujing Wubo, but after hearing the news, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he looked at Zheng Anmin in shock.

As for the other surviving member of the trio, he was also dumbfounded after hearing the news, "What's the matter, the 'adult' is gone?"

"Zheng... Zheng Tongzhi, is what you said true?"

This person is starting to doubt his life now. He looked at Zheng Anmin with some broken eyes, and his heart was full of expectations. He wanted to hear Zheng Anmin tell him that it was a lie.

"It's true."

Zheng Anmin controlled the movement of shrugging his shoulders, and said lightly: "Hu Xiaosheng gave too little gift to the chief, and the chief killed him himself in a fit of anger, and ransacked his house, totaling more than 1000 million copies. Two denarii."

"If there is no copy of the money, the boss will not have the money to give you monthly bonuses."

"This...how is this possible."

The man saw that Zheng Anmin showed no signs of lying, and was instantly defeated. If Hu Xiaosheng was already dead, then what were they doing here today?

"No, no, no, no, you must be lying to me. How could a third-rank official be killed so casually? You must be lying to me... You must be lying to me..."

Unlike the man who was already on the verge of collapse, Chen Jiu quickly accepted the fact after a short period of doubt, because Zheng Anmin now has no need to lie to him.

"I didn't expect that he would die before me."

Chen Jiu had mixed feelings in his mind now. The target he thought he would never be able to take revenge on, ended up dying in front of him, and was beheaded by the current head of Yuzhisi himself.

I don't know if this counts as karma.
