Chapter 6 — The Street They Live in Nhan Hoi Quan
Who to investigate, how many people to kill, it's all up to him to decide. Trieu Khac laughed coldly: "The food warehouse was burned by your people, the assassins are also your people." "Deputy General Trieu said there must be evidence." I ordered someone to carry the bodies of Hong Tu and Thanh Hoa up. He also brought the mandarin's uniform stolen from the good service, the fire signal and pieces of jade with phoenix patterns displayed on the top of the citadel. "The evidence is here." Tu eunuch glanced over. "The dead person does not know how to speak. The green lady randomly found two corpses and yet still dared to slander Huyen Giap royal guard?" "They were the palace maids next to the queen, everyone at Phuong Nghi Palace recognized them." "Why did the palace maids burn the food warehouse, plotting to harm the queen?" "This is a story." I have to ask Tieu Tan." Eunuch Tu's face darkened. "Call directly, your crime will increase by one level." "Today's crimes are many, please remember to write them down carefully for me, don't miss them." A soldier on top of the citadel couldn't help but laugh softly. Eunuch Tu raised his eyes and memorized that person's location. "After an hour, if the city gate is still not opened, Your Majesty will consider Nhan Hoi Quan as a traitor." I pulled seven envelopes from my sleeve. "Your Highness also helps me bring a word." "The love letter the lady wrote for Your Majesty, I have posted it on the wall. When the nearby military town and the Royal Guard arrive, I will invite them to read it together." Eunuch Tu's face finally changed. "The letter What?" "The Duke stood far away and couldn't see clearly." I ordered the soldiers to open the first envelope. On the giant white silk sheet, it was enlarged and copied according to the original text. "The governor of Sung Chau was greedy for money, the army was lax in defending the city, and he could use the name of searching for the queen to besiege the city." The words were written extremely large. From three miles away, you may not be able to see clearly, but Tu eunuch can definitely see clearly. He suddenly stood up. "Forged letter from the queen, enough to banish the nine clans!" "Is it true, your highness is right here." I handed the white silk to Co Thinh Loan. "Please say publicly that all of these letters are fake." Co Thinh Loan stared at the white silk. The wind blew her hair up, pasting her pale face. Up and down the city, thousands of pairs of eyes were waiting. When she opened her mouth, her voice was very soft. "The letter was written by me." Eunuch Tu shouted loudly: "Niang Niang!" Co Thinh Loan seemed to be awakened by this call and immediately added: "But the content is not my wish." Eunuch Tu raised his head to look at her, his eyes were cold. "The lady is frightened, her mind is not alert. The servant will immediately report to His Majesty, asking the doctor to follow the army to treat her." He climbed onto the carriage and quickly left. Co Thinh Loan looked at the carriage running towards the Huyen Giap army camp, and suddenly grabbed my hand. "Tieu Tan will hate him." "Cong Cong Tu has followed him for twenty years." "People who know too much will not live long." When she said this, there was no worry in her eyes. It's more like confirming some familiar rule. Trieu Khac looked at me. "How long until the border patrol will arrive?" "The fastest is tomorrow noon." "What about the three nearby towns?" "Tran Binh Xuyen agreed to come, the remaining two towns have not responded yet." Trieu Khac's face was heavy. The Huyen Giap army has twelve thousand people. The troops guarding Nhan Hoi Quan currently number less than two thousand, and one-third of the food warehouse was burned. Even if you can keep it for one day, you may not be able to keep it for the second day. Co Thinh Loan said in a low voice: "Let me go see him." I let go of her hand. "Just now, you said he would kill people who know too many people." "He won't kill me." She answered very quickly. Trieu Khac looked at her. Co Ting Loan seemed to realize something was wrong, her voice softened. "As long as I return, he will no longer have a reason to attack the city." "Eunuch Tu has just given three reasons." "I will beg him." The wind on the city wall was very strong. The sentence “I will pray
please" was blown lightly by the wind. Trieu Khac's face became even more unsightly. Perhaps he remembered the six citadels in the military report. I asked Co Ting Loan: "How do you intend to beg?" "I will tell him that the letter was written by me, and the fire signal was also left by me. Everything has nothing to do with Nhan Hoi Quan." "What happens after that?" "I'll let him handle it." "What if he asks to hand over my father's military amulet?" Co Tinh Loan paused for a moment. "Why is a military amulet as important as a person's life?" Trieu Khac suddenly turned his head. She continued to say: "Tieu Tan is suspicious. General Luc has been guarding Nhan Hoi Quan for many years, holding heavy troops in his hands, but he is still not at ease. Temporarily surrender the troops, wait for the storm to pass, and Your Majesty will naturally return it." Trieu Khac was so angry that he burst out laughing. “Nguyen Hoi Quan, Miss Gu, stopped Ho's cavalry from Bac Canh. The battle is over, who will mobilize the 120,000 border troops?" "Your Majesty will send a suitable person to take over." "People from the Huyen Giap army?" Co Ting Loan pursed his lips. "Deputy General Trieu, why do you need to think things are that bad? Tieu Tan has a hot temper, but he is the emperor, he will not make fun of the country." Trieu Khac looked at her for a long time then turned and left.
