Li Heng was also taken aback, and stood stupidly for a long time before he defended himself a little confused: "I, I didn't mean that......"

The emperor ignored him: "Li Heng, now Si Tian Jian Zheng He Guangjia and Deputy Prison Yi Yuan have accused you of deliberately misleading the calculation of the celestial phenomena, so that the fire in Fengxian Hall was not prevented in time, can you be guilty?"

No matter how stupid Li Heng was, he knew that this crime could not be endured, so he immediately jumped to his feet and said: "I don't know the crime, I don't know the crime! Obviously, there is no thunder and fire in the sky, but the sky is about to fall on fire, this is the same as my mother wants to get married, how can I do anything? How can it be pushed on my head? Obviously, these two old things who don't learn and don't know how to deliberately slander me! Yes! It's just a lie!"

The emperor looked at the two ministers of the Qin Heavenly Prison: "King Kangjun said that you deliberately falsely accused him?"

The two adults of Qin Tianjian immediately cried and cried out for injustice.

The two sides insisted on their own words, and they almost fought on the spot.

The emperor looked at it coldly for a long time, then turned his head to the waiter and said, "Xuan Ningyi." ”

As soon as the name Ning Yi was said by the emperor, everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

Many people know that in the past four years, the emperor has a very favored chamberlain by his side, and this chamberlain looks like one in a million and has an outstanding demeanor, which is very incomparable. But what made him famous was not his good looks, but his cold-blooded and cruel methods.

Four years ago, Ning Yi was appreciated by the emperor for his meritorious service in saving the driver and was promoted to the Department of Criminal Prisons, in order to find out the various eyeliners and dark piles in the hidden palace, Ning Yi began to serve in the palace with the support of the emperor, the palace maid. Even the guards carried out a three-year purge, and finally cleaned up the people in the palace with their bloody means.

There are many people in this palace who hate him, but there are even more who are afraid of him, and everyone changes color when they hear the name Ning Yi. But because of this, Ning Yi gradually became a very useful blade in the emperor's hand, and was reused by the emperor.

When Ning Yi, who was dressed in a red inner uniform, walked into the main hall, the air seemed to be filled with a sticky smell of blood, and the ministers looked down on people like Ning Yi, but no one dared to provoke him, so they all lowered their heads and looked at the square inch in front of them.

Li Heng glanced back at Ning Yi. I couldn't help but pout.

Li Heng recognized Ning Yi. At the beginning, in order to save face in front of He Linwan, Li Heng also humiliated Ning Yi with his words, and later Ning Yi rose all the way to the top, and his identity rose sharply. Li Heng didn't take him to heart either. Not to mention being afraid of him.

Ning Yi had someone tell him what had happened in the hall before he came in. So the emperor said directly: "You have always been good at judging cases, so let you decide this matter." ”

Li Heng was the first to disagree when he heard this: "Your Majesty, what case can he judge as a eunuch? And judging by his appearance, he is not a serious person." You might as well hand me over to the Criminal Department or Dali Temple!"

Ning Yi ignored Li Heng, and just said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, are you taking it to the prison for interrogation?"

The head office knew that the Criminal Prison Department was a place where you didn't want to come out intact if you entered, and everyone couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Li Heng. Everyone knew that the emperor had a lot of tolerance for Li Heng in the past, but this time Li Heng violated the emperor's taboo, I am afraid that he will really be unlucky.

At this time, an old voice said softly: "Your Majesty! As an imperial prince, King Kangjun is afraid that going to a place like the Criminal Prison Division will damage the royal face." ”

As soon as Li Heng turned around, he found that the person who spoke for him was the old Master Zhang who had fought crickets with him, and he couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude.

Old Master Zhang was silent after saying this, but some old ministers still echoed him.

The Emperor glanced at them and said, "I also don't think it's appropriate to go to the Prison Division. ”

Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief, and just wanted to smile flatteringly at the emperor, but the emperor continued: "Then let Ning Yi take him to the prison of the Criminal Department for interrogation." ”

Or let Ning Yi interrogate, what is the difference between going to the prison of the Criminal Department and going to the Criminal Prison Division?

Old Lord Zhang opened his mouth and wanted to say more, but the prince said: "Lord Zhang, I have received the excerpt that you want to return to your hometown to raise Rongyang, and you are ready to return to your hometown after the early dynasty, depending on your physical condition, it seems that it is not suitable to work for state affairs." ”

Old Master Zhang paused, and then knelt down tremblingly to thank him.

Li Heng looked at Old Master Zhang blankly, but Old Master Zhang couldn't get up for a long time when he knelt down.

Ning Yi's eyes without human feelings looked at Li Heng, Li Heng swallowed his saliva and realized that he was afraid that he was going to have bad luck today.

At this time, a chamberlain hurriedly came in and whispered a few words in the ear of the emperor's personal eunuch, and the eunuch thought about it and walked to the emperor's side to report: "Your Majesty, the prince of Jin is asking to see you outside." ”

Li Heng's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to immediately step on the heads of these ministers who were obstructing his vision and fly out to hide behind his brother. Ning Yi also raised his eyelids.

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "What is he here for?"

The chamberlain bowed his head and said, "The prince of Jin said that he had something important to tell. ”

The prince thought for a moment: "Let him in." ”

Not long after, Li Yu walked into the palace under the leadership of an attendant and saluted the emperor.

When Li Yu got up, Li Heng immediately wanted to run over, but was stopped by Li Yu's faint look.

Li Yu and Ning Yi stood in front of the emperor, one was handsome and unparalleled, and the other had a compelling complexion, this superb beauty seemed to make the entire hall a little brighter, but these two people didn't even give each other a look, and at a glance, they knew that they were extremely disagreeing with each other.

The emperor asked Li Yu, "What do you have to tell you?"

Li Yu said: "Your Majesty, I heard that half of the Fengxian Hall was burned by thunder and fire last night. ”

The emperor glanced at him: "The ancestors' rankings have been burned, do you know now?"

Li Yu glanced at Li Heng: "The minister heard the news last night, and he took Li Heng into the palace early this morning just to see what the ministers could do." I didn't want Li Heng to be brought to the court by His Majesty. ”

Li Heng immediately pointed at Si Tianjian's two people with a face full of grievances and complained: "The two of them shamelessly actually counted the account of the fire in Fengxian Hall on my head! Yesterday, there was obviously no thunder fire! Where is the miscalculation!"

Li Yu ignored Li Heng, and just said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, there should really be no thunder and fire yesterday, the few adults of Si Tianjian did not miscalculate, I have already consulted Mr. Qiu and Master Jiu Chen, the priest of Guozi, although they are not in Si Tianjian, they are famous celestial masters in Huaguo, and they should not make mistakes at the same time." ”

The emperor squinted slightly, and said meaningfully: "So, you also agree that it was my actions that angered the ancestors, so that the ancestors deliberately sent down a warning?"

Li Yu seemed stunned when he heard this, and then denied it: "During His Majesty's reign, he worked hard, worked diligently and loved the people, and everything he did was in accordance with the mandate of heaven, so how can he say a warning?"

The emperor's face looked a little better: "Oh? Then what do you mean by this? Could it be that someone still lit this fire? There were quite a few people who heard thunder last night." ”

Li Yu said: "Your Majesty, last night's thunder is probably this thunder and not the thunder!" Saying that, Li Yu took out a square handkerchief from his cuff and presented it to the emperor, who looked down at the powder on the square handkerchief and couldn't help but be taken aback.

"It's ......"

Li Yu looked at Ning Yi: "Lord Ning, you are well-informed, you may recognize what is in this handkerchief?"

Under the emperor's gaze, Ning Yi glanced at his face, and then said with thin lips: "Gunpowder." ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers of the palace couldn't help but be in an uproar.

"Where did you find this?" the emperor asked his chamberlain to take the handkerchief in Li Yu's hand and show it to him.

Li Yu said: "Your Majesty, I found it in the Fengxian Palace. The minister thinks that the fire in the Fengxian Hall is definitely not a natural disaster, nor is it a heavenly punishment, but a man-made disaster!"

The emperor's face became serious when he saw it: "You mean that someone deliberately used gunpowder explosions to disguise them as thunder fire?"

Li Yu nodded: "When I was playing with fireworks before, I heard the craftsman mention that gunpowder made according to a certain proportion can be disguised as thunder fire. Therefore, the residue of gunpowder has just been found in the Fengxian Temple, so there is suspicion. However, Chenbi is a layman after all, and His Majesty can send someone to Fengxian Hall to investigate carefully. ”

The prince frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Ning Yi: "Didn't you say that those people in the palace with ill intentions have been cleaned up? Who brought these gunpowder into the palace? You didn't even notice it? They blew up my ancestral tablet yesterday, will they be able to up tomorrow? You are limited to find out about this matter within three days!"

In the face of the emperor's anger and tasks, Ning Yi just responded indifferently.

Li Heng finally had the opportunity, pointed to his nose and interjected pitifully: "Then I, I, I, I'm fine, right?"

The Emperor snorted coldly.

Things have developed to this point, and the emperor did not say anything anymore, and directly announced his retreat from the dynasty.

In the imperial study, there were only two people, the emperor and Ning Yi.

The emperor said: "What do you think of Li Heng and Li Yu?"

Ning Yi lowered his eyes and said: "One is really stupid, and the other is afraid of ......" Although Ning Yi did not finish his words, the emperor understood what Ning Yi meant.

"If he really pretended all these years, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep him. Speaking of this, the emperor smiled coldly, "Don't look at Zhang Ying's old ministers who look deferential and mediocre on weekdays, as soon as I said today that I was going to hand over Li Heng to the Criminal Prison Division, they couldn't hold their breath and jumped out one by one to stop them." ”

Ning Yi did not express an opinion.

The emperor was not angry because of Ning Yi's silence, he changed his words and muttered: "Although the assassin four years ago was found to be related to the remnants of the Zhao clan, there must be other forces involved, what you expected should be not bad, who else in the Jin Palace's mansion would want me to die so much?"

Ning Yi's eyes flashed.

The emperor didn't notice Ning Yi: "This time the burning of the Fengxian Hall is obviously aimed at me, they want to make the world doubt the legitimacy of my succession to the throne! In this way, it is the Zhao family and the Jin Wangfu who will benefit! Which side will do it this time? Or will they all participate?"

Typos will be corrected tomorrow.

Good night~^_^.
