Wei Donglai was guessed by the prince-consort before he could speak. He was shocked and stumbled for a while, but finally he could only answer honestly: "Yes."

"I'm still wondering if you will come, but I didn't expect you to come - tell me, who is Qin Kaishan you?"

Wei Donglai heard the son-in-law's tone of bad words, but now that things have come to this point, he has no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "It's the sworn brother who was once in the army."

"He has done a lot of evil deeds and committed the crime of death. You don't know what you have to do to plead for him?" Zhou Shixian asked thoughtfully, "Do you think that you have made some contributions this time and I am using people, so you must buy your face, so you will definitely let go of your sworn brother?"

This was a heart-killing question. Wei Donglai's body was shocked and his face turned pale.

"I dare not." He said with a hoarse throat.

"You already dared." Zhou Shixian said lightly, "This morning, Liu Jinhai came down from the tree and said that he saw the other party having a cannon. What did you ask?"

"I asked him what kind of cannon it is," Wei Donglai murmured, "Is it a tiger squat?"

"Okay, when you know that it is two tiger squatting cannons, why do you look unscrupulous?"

"Bid it...Bid it..." Wei Donglai's head hung down.

"Let me tell you," Zhou Shixian said calmly, "Qin Kaishan likes tiger squatting the most and is good at tiger squatting the best. You have already guessed that the leader of Xingning Palace is Qin Kaishan, right?"

Wei Donglai was irrefutable and lowered his head and said, "Yes."

"According to reason, you should have reported to me immediately, what is he good at, what is his weakness, whether he is cruel or cunning, so that I can avoid his strengths and attack his weaknesses! But you kept silent and just avoided it. Are you afraid that you will not be able to deal with it if you meet Qin Kaishan?"

This is another question of heart-killing. Where can Wei Donglai have something to say?

"Now I want to kill Qin Kaishan, you are coming." Zhou Shixian's voice was not high, but every word he said was as sharp as a knife. "Do you know that I was hit by an arrow and stone today? If Gu Shiba had not sacrificed his life to save him, the prince consort in front of you would have died under Qin Kaishan's cannon!"

"I really don't know!" Wei Donglai raised his head and said in horror.

"The two armies set up a formation, with clear barriers, and there is no vagueness in the middle! It is not a crime to be sworn in with him, and pleading for him cannot be considered a crime. However, if you are on the battlefield, you know that if you don't raise your comrades and put your comrades in a dangerous place, that is a crime. I can set up a marching law to kill you, do you understand?"

Wei Donglai was sweating profusely, leaned down on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Wei Donglai, I pity you as a talent," Zhou Shixian slowed down and said gently, "Do you know that since the establishment of the Tenth Prince's Mansion, I have always regarded you as my right-hand man and leaned you as my confidant?"

"High-minded position...humble-minded position..." Wei Donglai's eyes turned red, his lips trembled, and he could no longer say anything.

Zhou Shixian just stared at him quietly and stopped talking.

Wei Donglai finally couldn't hold on anymore, so he held the ground with both hands, bowed his head and cried bitterly, "I'm wrong with my job, I'm guilty of being a crime!"

Zhou Shixian knew that the warriors in the late Ming Dynasty had a habit of accumulating things. If you could not use your power to win over him by relying on humble words and generous coins, he would often think that you could not live without him, and he would become more arrogant and proud.

My subordinates must not have such habits! Zhou Shixian made up his mind to take this opportunity to hit Wei Donglai.

"Who will plead for Qin Kaishan, who will plead for those elders who died at his hands, those women who were humiliated like animals, and those babies who were killed on the ground, who will plead for them?"

"It's a humble job!" Wei Donglai said tremblingly, "Large was a fool for a moment. I thought that Qin Kaishan was a good firearm and was also very capable of leading troops. Although he made a big mistake, if the prince-consort could take him to his own use, he would definitely be able to serve well and make meritorious service."

"Wei Donglai, you still don't understand. Some mistakes can be made, and some cannot." Zhou Shixian sighed, "Do you want to hear a story?"

Story? Wei Donglai raised his head and looked at the prince-consort in confusion.

"Once upon a time, Shandong Governor Sun Yuanhua had an officer under his command who had learned a good firearm. Unfortunately, he fought with Dengzhou soldiers after drinking and killed two people in a row. He knew that he had committed a law and caused a big disaster, so he escaped from Dengzhou overnight and wandered around."

Wei Donglai's face became paler and his hands trembled.

"Later, by chance, he came to the capital. Because he had no other director, he could only join the army. So he changed his name and threw himself into the Shenji Camp. He gradually accumulated merit and was promoted to the garrison of the Central Military Bian Battalion. Everyone thought that his name was taken from "Purple Qi Donglai", but he didn't know that the word Donglai actually meant to escape from the east."

"Haughty job..."

"There are not many people in the army who have a pure life experience as innocent as paper. There are inevitably some old things from the past. I will definitely tolerate anything that can be tolerated. This is the so-called mistake that can be made."

"Donglai thanks the prince-consort for his kindness." Wei Donglai whispered.

"But even though Qin Kaishan did something that he would never forgive him, once he did such a thing, he would never turn back. People were no longer humans, but pigs, dogs, and beasts who did not enter the cycle of reincarnation!" Zhou Shixian stared at Wei Donglai, "What should a beast talk about making meritorious service?"

"Yes! I understand! I understand!"

"One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, there is no way to be misfortune and good fortune, only people will take it." Zhou Shixian leaned back on the rattan chair and said coldly, "You did not leave the capital with Li Jiantai, but followed me. This is your blessing, wealth and other things! But if there is something happening today, can I really not kill you Wei Shoujie?"

As if it was echoing Zhou Shixian's words, suddenly there was a continuous loud noise from behind the mountain, with dense gunfire sounds, followed by shouts and screams. It lasted for a long time before gradually disappearing.

Wei Donglai knew that the mountain was shooting and killing people. Thinking about what he said just now, he was covered in cold sweat and finally convinced the prince-consort.

After a while, Gu Shiba ran into the hall and bowed and said, "Mr. Prince Consort, everything below is done."

"Happy, today I will avenge those evil spirits!" Zhou Shixian smiled at the corner of his mouth and ordered: "Tell everyone that the whole team is here, I'll come down now, let's go back!"

Gu Shiba agreed to go, and before leaving, he looked at Wei Donglai who was kneeling on the ground and was crying. He thought to himself that he didn't know why Wei Shouge had offended the prince-consort and was scolded so pitiful.

Wei Donglai knew that he was going to start, so he couldn't help but kowtowed again and asked for a last question.

"I dare not ask my son-in-law," he whispered, "why can you know what happened to me in the past?"

"Why do you know?"

With a thud, a sheathed knife stood up in front of Wei Donglai. Wei Dong looked at the unique pattern of gold-plated silver on the sheath and suddenly understood.

"Embroidered Uniform Guard..."
