Chapter 506: Precarious

"What my father said is right, the third brother has the world in his heart, and he has always been loyal to his father, and he will never do such a rebellious thing, you are clearly instructed by others and maliciously framed!"

If it is said that among the ministers, who does not believe what Liang Sheng said at this moment, and who is most willing to take risks to prove his innocence for him, it is naturally Gao Xun who has been looking forward to Gao Heng since he was a child.

Although he was shocked in his heart at this time, he quickly realized that all this must have been framed by the crown prince and Empress Zhao behind his back.

It's just that recently, except for Gao Heng's sudden expedition to the northwest, this period of time has been relatively calm, and he didn't expect that behind this calm, it turned out to be a storm that had been quietly brewing.

His cheeks tensed, his fists clenched, and he shouted in the hall with emotional indignation, never before in such excitement.

If it weren't for Cen Feng, who had always been calm and reasonable, to stop him in time, he would have almost rushed forward and knocked Liang Shengyan to the ground.

Although Cen Feng was silent at this time, and he couldn't see any joy, anger and sorrow in his eyes, in fact, deep in his heart, he also felt a deep worry about Gao Heng's crisis this time.

Thinking of the two pieces of paper that Cheng Jinzhi had placed in front of him, his heart suddenly tightened, and he finally suddenly realized.

They obviously misunderstood those shocking words.

Moreover, since the prince dared to inflict such a serious crime on Gao Heng this time, he must have arranged every step after the plan, and he would not have a chance to turn over easily.

In fact, Gao Xun didn't know how to argue hoarsely for Gao Heng at the moment, but he also knew that he was soft-spoken in the eyes of Emperor Zhou, and he had a close relationship with Gao Heng on weekdays.

"Your Majesty is angry, this matter is very important, if you are not worried about Your Majesty's safety, the villain will not violate the military law and leave the team without authorization. The villain just ate the gall of the ambitious leopard, and he didn't dare to commit this big crime of bullying the king, everything he said is true, and please let Your Majesty know it!"

In the face of Gao Xun's loud condemnation, Liang Sheng's eyes flickered and his eyebrows trembled, and he hurriedly leaned down to defend again and again, and even a fine bead of sweat oozed from his forehead.

"What is true! Who made you dare to spew blood in front of your father! Is it the crown prince's ......?"

"Shut up!"

Before Gao Xun finished speaking, Emperor Zhou, who was already furious, suddenly shouted, and the hall that was originally whispering suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere became more frozen and tense for a while.

Emperor Zhou's heart was a complete mess at the moment, and before he could calm down and think about whether Liang Sheng's words were credible, Gao Xun suddenly mentioned the crown prince at this time, which made his emotions even more fluctuating.

After such a short, death-like silence, I saw King Qi, who was standing among the ministers with a strange expression, put away the smile on the corner of his lips, and then slowly raised his head and said in a quiet tone.

"Xun'er, who in this court doesn't know that you and His Royal Highness King Yan are the closest, whether what this Liang Counselor General said is true, it is not yet known, at this time, the emperor advises you to say less. ”

Listening to King Qi's yin and yang strange persuasion, Gao Xun snorted coldly in his heart, and did not pay attention to him, but continued to persist.

"Father, the son dares to guarantee with his life, the third brother must be innocent! He has no disobedience to his father!"

Seeing that Gao Xun was so fearless in proving his brother's innocence, several other ministers who supported Gao Heng also began to come forward.

It's just that most of them are still afraid of getting into trouble and don't dare to step forward, so they only dare to talk to each other among the ministers and wait and see what happens.

Seeing that Emperor Zhou's face was becoming more and more ugly, he saw Cen Feng, who had been silent for a long time, tighten his pupils with a stern expression, and then raised his eyes.

It's just that he didn't plead with Emperor Zhou like other ministers, but looked at Liang Sheng who was kneeling on the ground with sharp eyes.

"General Liang, since you keep saying that you heard that His Royal Highness King Yan and the prince of Southern Chu were intending to rebel in the barracks tent, then I want to know, what exactly did they say? Why did such a confidential matter be heard by you so coincidentally?"

Facing Cen Feng's sudden questioning voice, Liang Sheng, who was already restless, trembled his eyes and hesitated for a moment, only then did he tremble a little and wanted to speak, but was interrupted by King Qi, who seemed to be smiling on the side.

"Why is it so coincidental? I can only say that there is no impermeable wall in this world. However, Cen Changsi is worthy of being a master of investigating the case, and listening to your tone, it seems that he does not believe what this Liang Counselor said. ”

"The prince has won the award, rebellion and rebellion are extremely evil, and I have to bear the felony of infamy, although I don't want to let go of a bad person, but I don't want to wronged any good person. ”

Cen Feng knew King Qi's position, so he just snorted meaningfully, and then moved his gaze back to Liang Sheng's body.

"General Liang, you haven't answered my question yet. ”

"The prince is right, there is no impermeable wall in this world, it must be that God has eyes and does not want me to be in turmoil in the Great Zhou, so I heard this. Liang Sheng said and glanced at the King of Qi in front of him with twinkling eyes, "I was too nervous at that time, and I only heard that the prince of Nanchu said that he was willing to help His Royal Highness King Yan raise troops and coerce His Majesty to abdicate... I was afraid that they would find out, so I hurried away. ”

"He's really... Do you really say that?"

When Emperor Zhou heard this, his pupils suddenly contracted violently, and he changed his previous excited state, and spit out a few words in a bit of distraction.

"Your Majesty, according to Weichen's understanding, His Royal Highness King Yan is a very thoughtful person, and everyone knows the capital, there are soldiers coming and going everywhere in the military camp, patrolling in batches, if they really have such a disobedient heart, they will not dare to say so. Moreover, the team of the night patrol has always been composed of dozens of people, but only General Liang heard these words, which was too strange. Therefore, Weichen believes that his words alone should not be easily believed. ”

Cen Feng said solemnly, but he couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart, Cheng Jinzhi, who was still in the palace at the moment, was completely ignorant of the situation.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Cen Changsi said is very true, this matter is very important, and His Royal Highness King Yan has not returned to Beijing at the moment, so it is reasonable to investigate this matter thoroughly and find out the real evidence. ”

At this time, Cui Lingfei, the head of the Criminal Department, who had always had a personal relationship with Gao Heng, also followed. However, as soon as his words fell, he heard someone among the ministers suddenly say something meaningful.

"I haven't returned to Beijing yet... I'm afraid that if I come back, the whole capital will really change dramatically. ”

Although the man deliberately lowered his voice, his words still flowed into the eardrums of many ministers, and there was another exchange of words among the ministers.

At the same time, I saw that the corners of Lin Kang's lips, who had been silent, raised slightly, and then walked out of the team with a swagger.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if His Royal Highness King Yan really colludes with Nan Chu, send someone to search the Yan Palace, and always find some clues. ”
