Chapter 711: Speculation
looked at Li Deshun and hung in a breath.
Li Deshun said: "When the military supplies were just distributed, there was a small-scale commotion, but it was quickly resolved by the Hou Ye, and when the minister returned, those soldiers ...... Those soldiers fought bloodily in single clothes, without the slightest resentment, and all of them were in high spirits. ”
When the emperor heard this, the high-hanging breath of Panasonic only became more and more angry as the worry gradually dissipated!
Those are his people's soldiers! Fighting for him......
In such weather, Kyoto is so cold that they are wearing single clothes......
Li Deshun said goodbye, seeing the anger between the emperor's eyebrows, Gu Yuqing pretended to be shocked on his face, and looked at Li Deshun, "Didn't you send cotton clothes over? Those soldiers, why do they wear single clothes to fight, such weather, in Liaodong, don't say that the army is marching and fighting, just standing there, wearing single clothes, they will be frozen to death, what about cotton clothes, why don't they wear cotton clothes?"
Li Deshun turned his face slightly, did not look directly at Gu Yuqing, and replied: "The materials we sent, the filling in the cotton clothes is not cotton wool, but reed flowers. In order to calm the anger of the public, the Hou Ye temporarily detained the clothes and found a way to raise cotton to replace the reed flowers. ”
Saying that, Li Deshun sighed, "It's just that kind of place, and I don't know how Master Hou wants to think of a way." On the day I went, it was snowing heavily, and the snow was up to my knees, and I was cold in my thick cotton clothes, and those soldiers ......"
Speaking of this, Li Deshun choked up a little and couldn't continue, pinned his head to the side, and pursed his lips.
Gu Yuqing watched Xiao Yi's reaction quietly.
After Li De's words fell, Xiao Yi's eyes, which had always been full of gloom, dissipated his emotions for a moment, and he opened his mouth and said, "Who is so mad that he actually uses his hands and feet on military supplies, it should be cut with a thousand knives!" he said angrily.
When the emperor heard this, he looked at Xiao Yi's eyes, and couldn't help but be a little gloomy.
Although Gu Zhen's letter did not mention who did the military supplies, he did mention that the Liaodong Imperial Court had a correspondence with an unknown minister of our dynasty, which seemed to have reached some kind of reciprocal interests.
Feng Ning is very tight, and secretly exchanging military supplies, this kind of thing is definitely not something that ordinary officials can do.
Who will it be...... Involuntarily, the emperor's eyes flashed on Xiao Yi and Gongsun Mu.
Just when Xiao Yi's words fell and the emperor was pondering, Gu Yuqing opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, the cotton clothes are replaced by reed flowers, not to mention that such an act will greatly weaken the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of our dynasty, I am afraid that if it is not for the father of the courtiers to take the opportunity to deal with it properly, a riot in the army will inevitably set off." ”
"Since someone deliberately secretly exchanged military supplies, what his intentions were, the courtiers didn't know, but just now, these fake letters from the hands of the Third Highness were directly aimed at the courtier's father collaborating with the enemy, these two incidents are too coincidental. ”
The courtiers suspected that it was the Third Highness who deliberately murdered and framed the courtier's father in order to eradicate dissidents, and at this time, the courtiers also suspected that these military supplies were the handiwork of the Third Highness. ”
was poked out by Gu Yuqing, how could Xiao Yi tolerate it, and immediately said angrily: "You are talking nonsense......"
However, his words were interrupted by the emperor, "Let her finish!"
Gu Yuqing ignored Xiao Yi, the emperor said, and continued: "The courtiers make an assumption, Your Majesty will listen to whether it is reasonable. ”
"You say!"
"If, as early as August 16, before the departure of the team escorting military supplies, His Royal Highness the Third Prince began to plot to frame the father of the courtier, he first quietly changed the cotton clothes from the eyes and ears of the people, and then when Li Deshun set off, he began to search for calligraphy talents, imitate the handwriting of the courtier's father, and make these many forged letters of collaboration with the enemy. ”
"Presumably, in the Liaodong camp, beside my father, there are people who respond to the three highnesses, cotton clothes are delivered, there is a riot, that person is anxious, before his father can suppress the riot, he eagerly sent a message to the three highnesses, and the three highnesses got the news in Beijing, so they bribed Wang Daosheng, a transcriber of the military department, to threaten his wife and daughter, asking him to cooperate with his actions, and I don't know when, he made these perjuries he made, and secretly put them in my Chinan Hou Mansion. ”
"If it weren't for the fact that the courtiers found something strange in these fake letters and punctured them, I am afraid that the tricks of the Third Highness have already succeeded. After all, collaborating with the enemy is a major matter, and even if Your Majesty trusts the father of the courtier, it is inevitable that he will not be suspicious and send someone to investigate, and when the time comes, His Royal Highness will once again buy this person who went to visit. ”
"As long as this person beheads the father of the courtier's daughter first and then plays it on the battlefield in Liaodong, and when he returns to Beijing, he will return according to the words agreed between him and the Third Highness, then the whole plan will be regarded as ......"
What Gu Yuqing said was all true, so from beginning to end, Xiao Yi listened, every word was like a drumstick hitting his heart, and when he listened, he only felt that the blood was rushing backwards.
Before Gu Yuqing finished speaking, he couldn't help but roar again, "Enough, this is just your guess, this king has said it, Wang Daosheng's matter was not instigated by this king at all, as for why he said so, this king doesn't know, this king is also a victim!"
Gu Yuqing ignored Xiao Yi, and only said to the emperor: "These are all speculations by the courtiers according to everything that happened in front of them, although there is not full evidence, but it is not impossible, I hope Your Majesty can make a reference and return the courtier's father to an innocence." ”
As he spoke, Gu Yuqing suddenly remembered something, and said: "Also, if everything is as the courtiers just said, then the Third Highness will harm the courtier's father, I am afraid that it will be secondary, and his main target should be the Fourth Highness." ”
"After all, in those forged letters, it is mentioned that the Fourth Highness collaborated with the father of the courtier. ”
Xiao Yu is the emperor's favorite prince, and when it comes to Xiao Yu, the emperor's attitude is very different.
"You want to talk arbitrarily, this king can't stop you, anyway, the commander of the forbidden army has gone to the king's mansion to search, and there will be results soon, the clear person will clear himself, whatever you say, this king is not afraid of crooked shadows!"
Xiao Yi put on a posture that real gold is not afraid of fire.
Gu Yuqing sneered, "The Qing is indeed self-purifying! I hope Your Highness is innocent, so that it will not hurt Your Majesty's heart, you are a dignified prince, and the Fourth Highness is a flesh and blood brother, if the means are so despicable and dirty, I am really worried about Your Majesty, if it turns out that everything is done by you, Your Majesty will not faint with anger." ”
Xiao Yi clenched his fists hatefully, and his heart became more and more remorseful.
As he spoke, the wooden door of the imperial study was pushed open again, this time, it was not the chamberlain who returned, but the commander of the forbidden army who entered directly, and behind him, followed by a woman and a girl who was only about two years old, she was tightly held in her arms.
