Mrs. Zuo just nodded in agreement, Zuo Lingyu was careful, ordered someone to take a pen and paper to write them down, and asked, "Grandmother, are there other people?"

Mrs. Zuo was very relieved to see that her granddaughter could still remain calm in the chaos, and she thought about it carefully, but there were other people, but she found that she couldn't count them.

After a group of newcomers such as Wang Heng and Liang Xinming emerged, Wang Heng killed a group of officials in Jiangnan, which greatly damaged the strength of the left prime minister, and the Zuo family was not as good as before. In the past, the Manchu Dynasty was full of disciples, protégés, relatives and friends, but now only a dozen or so have been found, and some of them are still neutral, and it is unreliable to expect them to help Zuo Duanyang, so they can only use Liang Xinming's behavior of cutting first and then playing a prelude to arouse their disgust, and say a fair word for Zuo Duanyang.

The old lady said sadly: "That's all. Tell someone to go. ”

Zuo Lingyu said: "Grandmother rest assured. The granddaughter will help her mother with the arrangements. ”

The left prime minister's mansion quickly came out and rushed to all sides.

In the imperial study, Emperor Jing Kang received a notice from Shen Qi.

"Liang Xinming interrogated the left minister?" he asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Liang Xinming held the dragon pattern order in his hand and ordered the dragon guards to detain Zuo Xiang and go to the government office, where he was about to be tried. Shen Qi replied.

"Got it. Stand down. Strengthen the guards in the city, so as not to be exploited by the thieves. Emperor Jing Kang said in a deep voice. His face was ugly, and he didn't expect that it would really involve Zuo Xiang. He didn't dare to think about the inside story, let alone the consequences.

Seeing this, Fang Wushi was busy glancing at Shen Qi.

Shen Qi didn't retreat, and he stopped talking.

Emperor Jing Kang frowned and said, "What else do you have to do?"

Shen Qi played: "Zuo Xiang is worried that Liang Xinming will be bold and reckless, so he will kill him first and then kill him to vent his anger. Weichen thought that Zuo Xiang had always been relied on by the emperor, and whether he was guilty or not, I am afraid that the emperor would have to deal with it, so he went back and forth to the emperor. ”

Emperor Jing Kang was taken aback, and the unhappiness caused by Zuo Xiang's involvement in the case temporarily disappeared, and he instead imagined the possibility of Liang Xinming cutting first and then playing. He gave Liang Xinming the dragon pattern order, which gave her enough rights to facilitate her trial of the case, she is in the capital right now, and there will be no such situation as "the emperor will not be subject to the foreign monarch's order", if it is clear that Zuo Xiang murdered King Cheng, how should he give him a reply before he can be judged and disposed of.

Will Liang Xinming cut first and then play?

He shook his head and said, "Liang Aiqing will not be so reckless. "The tone is firm.

Fang Wushi hurriedly said: "Weichen also thinks that Lord Liang will not be so reckless. ”

Liang Xinming gave him a very calm feeling, how could he give such a big handle to someone? If she killed Zuo Xiang first and then played, it would be a lot of trouble.

Shen Qi opened his mouth and closed it again. The emperor and the Marquis of Zhongyi seemed to know Liang Xinming's appearance very well, but how did he feel that Zuo Xiang was more than lucky? He didn't know how to express the premonition in his heart, so he could only let Zuo Xiang ask for more blessings.

Seeing that Shen Qi was not retreating, Emperor Jing Kang suddenly understood that he was here to intercede for Zuo Xiang. He put his face down and said majestically: "When I gave Liang Aiqing the dragon pattern order, I asked him to let go of the investigation, and he would not tolerate it regardless of whether it involved the emperor's relatives and relatives." If Zuo Xiangruo is implicated, he is naturally no exception!"

Shen Qi's heart sank, and he didn't dare to speak.

Later, he respectfully retired.

After going out, I thought to myself: The emperor's determination is very firm, and he can't interfere in this matter anymore, don't offend Liang Xinming again, Zuo Xiang...... Let's look at creation.

Not long after Shen Qi retired, Jin Shangshu asked to see him.

Emperor Jing Kang said: "Xuan him in." ”

The chamberlain went out to preach people.

Someone went back and forth: "Wu Shangshu asked to see him." ”

Emperor Jing Kang was slightly puzzled and said, "Xuan." ”

Then he replied: "Prince Yu asks to see the emperor." ”

Jing Kangdi and Fang Wushi looked at each other......

followed by Su Xiang and Wang Ji and others.

Not only will the Zuo family find someone to help, but Liang Xinming will also find someone. As soon as Zuo Xiang stepped into the gate of the Kyoto Mansion, Zhao Ziyi sent people to Su Xiang's Mansion and the palace to report the news, as well as Cui Yuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, etc., all of which were transmitted.

Therefore, the important ministers all entered the palace.

When Emperor Jing Kangdi heard that Zuo Xiang was suspected of murdering King Cheng, he was already in a bad mood, and he was even worse when he was troubled by these people--The case has not yet been tried, what are these people busy with? He looked at Jin Shangshu and the others, who should have come to plead for mercy; as for Wang Ji and Su Xiang, they should have come to fall into the ground.

Jing Kangdi felt very irritable.

He asked coldly: "What is the reason for the Zhongqing family to enter the palace?"

Everyone also noticed that the emperor was in a bad mood, but the matter was too big, and they couldn't help but say what they should admonish, so Prince Yu spoke first.

Prince Yu has a fiery temper and resolutely opposes Liang Xinming's first cut and then play, it is inappropriate for the emperor to grant such a big power to a young official!

Emperor Jing Kang asked angrily: "Liang Xinming cut first and then played?"

Prince Yu said: "It's too late for her to kill Zuo Xiang!"

Jin Shangshu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the case of King Cheng is not trivial, for the sake of prudence, this case should be handed over to the three divisions for trial." Liang Xinming is now the prefect of Kyoto, and if he disposes of the left minister, I am afraid that if he disobeys the public, he will also affect the emperor. ”

Emperor Jing Kangdi said coldly: "The three divisions will be tried? It's not that they haven't tried before, who can judge the truth?"

Everyone had nothing to say.

Jin Shangshu was about to answer, but the emperor spoke again.

He asked Jin Shangshu again: "How can it affect me?"

Jin Shangshu hurriedly said: "Who in the world does not know that the emperor ascended the throne with the support of the left minister? If the left minister is killed, it is inevitable that no one will suspect that the emperor killed his brother and seized the throne, and the emperor will be speechless. This is really detrimental to the emperor's virtue. Please Emperor Mingjian!"

His words hinted to Emperor Jing Kang: Even if Zuo Xiangzhen plotted to kill King Cheng, he must suppress it for the sake of the emperor's reputation, and he must not be openly convicted and beheaded.

These words pierced Emperor Jingkang's heart, isn't he worried about this? His face was pale, and his hand resting on the imperial case was clenched tightly.

Su Xiche and Wang Ji stepped forward at the same time.

Su Xiche said loudly: "Ridiculous! If Zuo Xiang really plotted to kill King Cheng, does he want the emperor to bear the consequences for him and conceal it? King Cheng and the emperor are siblings, and if they can't seek justice for their siblings, the emperor's reputation will be good? If the emperor protects Zuo Xiang, then it is not clear, and it proves that the emperor killed his brother and seized the throne!"

He opened his mouth and reversed the meaning of Jin Shangshu - the left minister should be killed, and if he does not kill, the emperor will bear the notoriety of killing his brother and seizing the throne.

Wang admonished: "Exactly! Zuo Xiangruo plotted to kill King Cheng, and he should punish the nine clans!"

Jin Shangshu hurriedly said: "This official does not want the emperor to protect the left minister. Whether Zuo Xiang plotted to kill King Cheng is uncertain. For the sake of prudence, Weichen suggested: After Liang Xinming finds out the facts of the case, it can be handed over to the three divisions for trial, and Liang Xinming should not be sentenced to the left minister. ”

Wang admonished: "Jin Shangshu's words don't make sense. Since Liang Xinming is investigating the case, Liang Xinming should be on trial; if others intervene, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?"

The crowd began to argue.

……

In Kunning Palace, Zuo Linglong knelt in front of Queen Chen, and cried on his back: "Queen Mother, please save your concubine and grandfather, Liang Xinming wants to kill her grandfather......"

Overnight, her world turned upside down.

If her grandfather, who she relied on, fell, she would not have a good life in the future, and she didn't need to be taught this, so she cried desperately for the queen.
