Chapter 649: Another false alarm
The middle door of Chen's mansion was wide open, Qin Jin was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Chen Xilie, the old guy, still had some responsibility, and he didn't be a turtle with a shrunken head. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I saw Chen Xilie staggering in front of everyone with the support of the slave.
The guards in the forbidden middle school who surrounded the gate of the mansion were unsheathed, and they were eyeing each other, as if they could rush up at any time to tear this ancient old man to pieces.
"Doctor Qin and the old man expected that they were still one night late!"
Without waiting for Qin Jin to speak, Li Fuguo sneered again and again and scolded:
"The old immortal, if you don't obediently tie your hands and catch it, why is it making noise here?"
On the way here, Qin Jin had already told Li Fuguo about the secret ins and outs of this matter, and Li Fuguo was also so shocked that he inhaled cold air, and he didn't expect that Fang Xuan was involved, which shows the sinister intentions of the people behind the scenes.
"Chen Xianggong, the Son of Heaven treats you well, so why bother?"
Chen Xilie's old eyes gradually dimmed, but there was no remorse on his face.
"Hah...... Ha ha...... Ha ha...... The old man has no regrets in this life!"
Suddenly, Qin Jin had a premonition that something was wrong, and hurriedly rushed forward, but it was too late, but he saw Chen Xilie's body crumbling, and then pounced. Qin Jin was still a step late, and when he picked up Chen Xilie's thin body, all he felt was a trembling like defeat.
A trace of dark red blood overflowed from the corners of Chen Xilie's mouth, and a trace of cunning and smugness burst out of his already godless eyes, and then dimmed again. When Li Fuguo reacted, he saw that Chen Xilie's body had softened, and seeing that he couldn't be saved, he kicked him indiscriminately.
"Old thing, suicide in fear of sin, suicide in fear of sin!"
Indeed, Chen Xilie committed suicide by taking poison as soon as Qin Jin arrived.
venting the anger in his chest, Li Fuguo was a little panicked.
"Chen Xilie's death has no proof, then, isn't that the prime minister ......?"
As soon as the thought jumped out of his head, he was so shocked that he even stammered. If you can't torture the truth from Chen Xilie's mouth, won't you never be able to confirm Fang Xuan's innocence?
Qin Jin was not as worried as Li Fuguo.
"Loot the mansion first!"
Soon, in less than a quarter of an hour, all the hundreds and ten people in Chen Xilie's mansion were driven out, but his two sons were missing. Li Fuguo's anger did not subside, and the slave who tortured the Chen Mansion finally asked what happened. It turned out that Chen Xilie's two sons had not appeared in the mansion seven days earlier, and no one knew when they left or where they went.
Where is Li Fuguo willing to believe, beat several of Chen Xilie's personal servants to death, and still found nothing. In the end, Qin Jin had to stop Li Fuguo's violence.
"General, it seems that they really don't know, now the key is to find evidence of Chen Xilie's collusion with thieves!"
Li Fuguo said angrily:
"Chen Xilie is cunning like a fox, how can this kind of handle still be left?"
At this time, a servant in the house suddenly asked:
"What the general is looking for, but is it a letter?"
When Qin Jin heard this, he went to see the slave, but it was a younger one in the courtier's mansion.
"Show it to me, and if it is worthy, it will forgive you from your sins!"
Chen Xilie's charges have been confirmed, the fate of these people can only be exiled for thousands of miles, if the Son of Heaven refuses to be gracious, then none of them can survive this autumn. When the servant heard that he could save his life and escape, he immediately smiled flatteringly, but his laughter was worse than crying.
Li Fuguo went up and kicked him.
"Where did you get all this nonsense, and you don't want to get it?"
After a while, the servant pulled out a letter from his bedroom that had been burned nearly three-quarters of it, but fortunately most of its contents had been preserved.
"This, this is from the unburned paper ashes of the head of the house, the slave maid thinks, thinks it may be useful, so, stay!"
Li Fuguo also glanced at the letter in Qin Jin's hand a few times, and the names involved made his brows furrow, and then he laughed and pointed at the servant.
"You guy, you have a backbone in the back of your head, and you have the intention of betraying your master from the beginning, you really damn it!"
The slave was frightened by Li Fuguo's words, and knelt on the ground, kowtowing like a chicken pecking rice, begging for mercy again and again.
"The general spares his life, spares his life, hasn't he already promised the slave maid, but can he be exempted......"
Li Fuguo said sharply:
"It was Dr. Qin who promised you, not Li, Dr. Qin spared you, how could Li spare you...... Li hates this kind of bastard who eats inside and crawls outside the most in his life......"
Qin Jin's face was solemn, he felt that the letterhead in his hand was heavier than a thousand catties, and the names involved in it were the leading figures in the An'an rebel army, such as Yan Zhuang, the prime minister under An Lushan, who planned the riot in the city this time, and its purpose was obvious.
When this letter appeared on the imperial case of Li Heng, the Son of Heaven, it was already half an hour later.
Li Heng's brows tightened, and his body trembled unconsciously, and he didn't know whether it was because of anger or disappointment.
"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with Fang Xianggong, and the solemn planning of this matter is nothing more than to separate my Tang monarchs and ministers, so as to delay the time for the imperial court to send troops!"
The letter vaguely mentioned the words that implicated Fang Xuan, although there were only a few sentences, but under the evidence, it also cleared Fang Xuan's suspicion.
According to Qin Jin's expectations, the most appropriate thing for Li Heng to deal with now is to sort out these things at the moment and send them to Fang Xuan, one to calm his heart, and the other to persuade him, to inform the Son of Heaven that his trust in him is unwavering.
In this way, the impact of this time can be minimized. However, Li Heng didn't do this for a long time, and he didn't even ask Qin Jin's opinion, only saying that he was a little tired and wanted to rest for a while.
This was already an obvious eviction, and Qin Jin had no choice but to retreat with interest.
Out of the hall, Li Yu, Li Fuguo, and Cui Guangyuan were waiting anxiously outside the hall. Qin Jin saw that Cui Guangyuan had also arrived, so he asked:
"How, but there's still something to gain?"
Cui Guangyuan was ashamed and said:
"Those thieves have very hard mouths, and they are sure that it is Fang Xianggong!"
Qin Jin nodded.
"The confessions of those thieves are no longer important, and the suspicion of Fang Xianggong has been cleared!"
Only Li Fuguo looked at Qin Jin thoughtfully, and he asked himself if he and Qin Jin changed places, he would definitely make a big fuss about this matter, and then replace it with the Shenwu Army, and the credit for overcoming the Eastern Capital would also belong to him! It's a pity, it's a pity!
Thinking of this, he smiled again:
"Actually, it's not necessarily a good thing!"
Li Yu and Cui Guangyuan were very strange when they heard this.
"How so?"
Li Fuguo said again:
"After this incident, it shows that the thief is afraid of the court and the donkey's skills are poor!"
The two of them were stunned, but they always felt that there was something wrong with Li Fuguo's statement.
Just as the three of them were looking at each other, Fang Xuan, who was in the whirlpool, arrived. When Qin Jin saw him, he was still a little surprised, it should be that the news had already reached this person's ears.
Li Fuguo took the first step to greet him, with a strange face, and said in a strange manner:
"Fang Xianggong is a step late, and he missed the show!"
Fang Xuan snorted casually, he had never had a good impression of eunuchs, especially Li Fuguo's pampering and playing with power in front of the Son of Heaven, and he even sneered at them.
Li Fuguo touched his nose, but he didn't care, he only restrained his smile and looked coldly at how Fang Xuan should explain to the Son of Heaven.
Fang Xuan's footsteps landed soundly, and when he came to Qin Jin, a pair of eyes shot out of a fierce flame, and a sentence was squeezed out of his mouth.
"Good done!"
Then, he strode towards the palace of the Son of Heaven, and then a gust of wind rolled up on Qin Jin's side, and although his anger did not erupt, it was imposing.
In Qin Jin's impression, although Fang Xuan was a little cold, he had never been as strong and fierce as today, which showed that he was really angry in his heart.
Stunned, Cui Guangyuan said:
"It seems that Fang Xianggong put this account on Dr. Qin's body!"
"I don't know what is good or bad! Doctor Qin is also wronged enough, the slave and maid saw it in person, Doctor Qin really tried his best to clear the suspicion of this smelly and hard stone, if it was changed to ......"
Qin Jin didn't care if he was wronged, if he really did what Li Fuguo assumed, wouldn't he become the person he hated the most?
However, Fang Xuan was able to take the initiative to come, which also made Qin Jin feel relieved. Li Heng, the son of heaven, is a passive person by nature, and he is unwilling to take the initiative to do many things, if Fang Xuan can take the initiative to explain clearly, he believes that the last doubt in Li Heng's heart will also be dissipated.
"Fortunately, there was a false alarm, Fang Xianggong is also a reasonable person, I believe he will make fair judgments!"
Cui Guangyuan slandered: Fang Xuan will definitely have judgments, but he may not be fair, this person's loyalty to the court is undoubted, but he is not a pedantic and humble gentleman. However, if Qin Jin really took advantage of this matter to fall into the trap, he would definitely look down on Qin Jin, after all, how different is this kind of villainous behavior that ignores the overall situation from betraying the country? It is not much different from Yang Guozhong and Li Linfu's generation!
The group of people left the Taiji Palace, the sun had already hung high above their heads, roasting the earth hotly, and now they actually had the taste of summer.
Qin Jin intuitively felt that his body was stuffy, so he pulled the collar that was tightly tied, trying to let the heat in his clothes dissipate some of it, from yesterday to today, it seemed to be a hasty and nervous dream, when it came to the end, he didn't think much about it, now he was relaxed, but he felt tired, he just wanted to fall asleep and sleep him heartily.
However, the facts do not allow him to indulge himself so much, there are still too many things waiting for him to decide, although this Chang'an City seems to have restored the prosperity and peace of the past, in fact, crises exist from time to time, and a little relaxation may be taken advantage of by someone with a heart.
For example, Chen Xilie's matter, if it wasn't for the hasty handover between the Shenwu Army and the Left Guard Army, how could it happen easily?
"Doctor?"
Qin Jin suddenly heard that someone was calling him, and looked at the place where the voice came from, but he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the person coming clearly!
