Chapter 50: Xiao Chen

Wang Jian's brows furrowed. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he stepped forward and pinched Xin Yi's jaw, so strong that he could hear the creaking of the woman's jaw bones.

"A mere five-grade concubine, why should I believe your words?" Wang Jian's eyes were full of anger, and a murderous intent smashed Xin Yi on the head.

Xin Yi looked directly at Wang Jian without fear, and smiled sarcastically: "People are divided into nine grades, but the truth is never divided." At that time, there were only Wang Lu's second daughter, and me, a five-grade concubine. Lord Wang had to believe me. ”

The last half of the sentence is categorical, with the arrogance of winning the ticket. smashed Wang Jian a few steps back, he didn't know whether he was angry or shocked, he stared and didn't speak.

Xin Yi tilted his head slightly and glanced at Xin Fang. Xin Fang has been left to dry for a long time, but the Wang Lu dispute in his heart has already been pulled into by Xin Yi, causing a shocking wave. But although she is angry, she is not stupid, at this moment the two have the same surname Xin, they are grasshoppers on a rope, and she has no extra choice.

"The people's daughter is the fifth product of Lang Xinqi's eldest daughter Xin Fang, and she has the courage to return to the emperor, the great Sikong, and the general. Xin Fangying bowed down, and the sound was like a bell, "This is indeed the case." My sister felt the righteousness of Miss Wang Lu, closed the door for a few days, fasted and recited the Buddha, prayed to the Buddha every day to wish the merits of the two young ladies, and prayed that the Buddha blessed the two young ladies with good people and good returns, and lived a long life. ”

Xin Fang, as a fourth person who has nothing to do with this matter, what came out of her mouth, even if it was with the surname Xin, made people believe it a lot. Zichen Hall fell silent, everyone was pondering, but Xin Yi was slightly amused.

What prayed to the Buddha, she just fell into the water and caused a cold, and rested on the couch for a few days. Although Xin Fang is usually virtuous and meticulous, at the critical moment, this nonsense is still the way she looks, but she is not disgusted.

Seeing that there was silence in the hall for a long time, Xin Yi bowed down again: "Return to the emperor." Wang Lu and the two ladies are both famous ladies, and they know the general trend. How can they grudge because of a small suspicion, and even go so far as to poison others? Saving the people's daughters and being merciful is a great virtue. Shouldn't the emperor and the other lords be well rewarded? On the contrary, they were involved in other unjust matters, which ruined the good name of the two young ladies. ”

Even so, the second daughter did not hold a grudge. But Wen Luan did die from the poison of the alder. And alder incense is unique to Lu Jin. Wang Jian groaned with a gloomy face, "How can this be explained?"

"What does Wang Sikong mean by this?" Lu Huan shouted in a rough voice without showing weakness, "Why did my son Ah Jin poison Wang Wenluan for no reason? ”

"How does the old man know about these boudoir matters?" Wang Jian's fists clenched, and the anger in his voice became thicker, "Maybe the second daughter has a grudge on other occasions." As the only young lady, Lu Jin has a high heart. It is rumored that when the Lu family's carriage and horses passed through the downtown area, a beggar accidentally fell, and his dirty hands touched Lu Jin's sedan curtain. Such femme fatales ......"

"Wang Jian's old husband! Are you really an old man, are you dizzy! My son Ah Jin has a noble status, how can it be that the Wang family's dirty water can be splashed!" Lu Huan was so angry that his face and neck turned red, he rolled up his sleeves, and was about to step forward and beat Wang Jian directly.

The court becomes the street, and it will be a mess in an instant. Emperor Li He sighed secretly, barely put on a soothing smile, and said softly: "The two Aiqing are angry, angry." Wang Defang and Lu are not insidious and vicious. Maybe there's something else going on here. ”

The emperor spoke, and Wang Jian and Lu Huan had no choice but to give up. But there was no more squeak in the temple. Because as Wang Jian said, Wang Wenluan did die from alder incense, and alder incense Lu Jin is unique.

Even if there is no reason to harm others, this is undeniable.

Xin Yi's eyes flashed. Now it's time for her to appear. However, unexpectedly, someone rushed ahead of her.

"It turns out that the Hu man said 'Alder is strangely fragrant, killing two birds with one stone' is what it means......

The voice of his voice was not high, but it was heard by everyone in the silent temple.

Everyone looked for prestige, and it was a middle-aged man in the military attache queue. The man has an ordinary appearance, a burly figure, and a green shirt and official robe are ranked in the lower four grades.

Although the fourth grade is barely a role in Beijing, the official system of the Great Wei Dynasty is divided into upper, middle and lower grades. The lower fourth grade is already next to the edge of the fifth grade, so there is an embarrassment that the feet do not touch the ground and the head does not touch the sky.

"Xiao Chengming, what do you mean by this?" the emperor's eyes lit up slightly, and he shouted suddenly. The eyes of all the people in the temple were also full of meaning. When it comes to alders, as well as the Hu people, it is impossible to ignore it.

Xiao Chengming trembled and fell straight to the ground in fear. He covered his mouth with one hand and waved his hand again and again in panic. It seems that what he just said is nothing more than his words.

However, the more he did this, the more curious the people in the temple became. Even Wang Jian and Lu Huan looked uplifted, staring at the man with fierce eyes.

If there is anything else hidden in this matter, tell the truth, and the old man will be rewarded. Wang Jian glanced at the official in a slightly seductive tone.

The official is only the fourth grade. If it weren't for his leakage today, I am afraid that Wang Jian, an important minister of the country, would not know that there is such a person in the court.

"Back to the words of the Great Sikong. The official's heart was horizontal, and he had the courage to go out of the ranks, and tended to bow down in the hall, "The lower official is Xiao Chengming, the commander of the lower four grades of the Zhongfu. ”

"The Xiao family's is not the Xiao family left over from the previous dynasty? Now you are still breathing, and it is not easy to have no glory. Lu Huan smiled contemptuously, looking at Xiao Chengming's gaze with more and more disdain, "Since it's only the fourth grade, you should know your duty." What should be hidden, what should be reported. Don't be confused, let this family that has been left until today be cut off. ”

Civilian and military officials burst into snickering laughter. Xiao Chengming's face turned a little paler, and his twin strands standing in the hall began to tremble. Obviously, on weekdays, he relies on the surname Xiao, barely mixing up with the rank of military attachΓ©, begging for food, and as for making a list of admonitions, he has never thought about making plans for the country.

"If there is a secret, just tell it. In the name of the Son of Heaven, I am not guilty. Emperor Li He smiled and comforted Xiao Chengming in a gentle voice.

After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Chengming shuddered and spoke: "Back to the emperor, Weichen recently got the permission of the Holy Will to hold a lotus appreciation festival in Qujiang Pond. The natural flow of people is like weaving, and the south and the north are goods, and even attracted many barbarians from the Western Regions. Wei Chen happened to hear the discussion of the merchants of the Western Regions, 'Alder is strange and fragrant, killing two birds with one stone'. At that time, the group only said these eight words, and I don't know why, and Weichen didn't take it to heart. But when I thought about it today, I realized that there was a big mystery. β€œ

There was silence in the hall. The eyebrows of the civil and military officials furrowed, and they carefully considered the connection between the two. No one doubted Xiao Chengming's words, not even Wang Jian and Lu Huan.

First, Xiao Chengming held a lotus festival, and there was nothing wrong with seeing visitors from all over the world and listening to the words of the eight directions. Second, Xiao Chengming is a fourth-grade district, and there is no reason or courage to say half a fake word.

Suddenly, Wang Jian's eyes lit up, and he said with a grim face: "Xiao Chengming, how do the merchants of the Western Regions dress up?"

Xiao Chengming was frightened again, and said in a trembling voice: "Braids, brown eyes, a satin robe with a golden flower lapel, and a golden eagle pendant." ”
