1. Where did the traitor come from?

The emperor stood up and looked over sharply with a pair of eyes, and the courtiers in the palace lowered their heads one after another.

There was a night of trouble outside, and the emperor's forbidden army went around to catch the Qingwang Party, but they didn't expect to pounce, and the Qingwang Party not only did not besiege the palace, but took people out of Beijing.

Why did King Qing give up such a good opportunity and choose to flee without a fight?

Everyone couldn't help but talk about it, and after inquiring about each other, they heard a piece of news.

Rongguo Gong of Northern Xinjiang sent a war report to Beijing overnight, and the scouts of the Jin State frequently appeared in the frontier, and it was really determined that these days experienced more than a dozen wars, large and small, although the Great Qi had won, but the Jin State was just a test, if the Great Qi did not strengthen the defense, it would definitely be defeated.

The most important thing is that Rong Guogong caught the scouts of the Jin Kingdom in northern Xinjiang, and found the map of Daqi and the deployment of defenses in various parts of the capital on the scouts.

Such news had to panic everyone.

If the emperor only cares about dealing with King Qing and King Ning, ignores the strong enemy, and lets the Jin State go south to besiege the capital, the result will be unimaginable.

On the way to the court this morning, everyone gathered together and whispered, the changes in the capital overnight were even more anxious than the previous rebellion of King Ning and his attempt to launch a palace change.

"Your Majesty," King Lao Shou finally said, "Is it true that he has sent back the war report?"

Everyone in the hall held their breath and waited for the results.

The emperor frowned, he hadn't even read Rong Guogong's battle report, but King Shou asked.

Before the emperor could speak, King Lao Shou continued: "It is rumored outside that there are spies in the capital in the Jin State. King Shou told the rumors.

Hearing the word spy, Liu Jingchen's breath couldn't help but stagnate, could it be that someone had revealed the news. Did the people who let Jin Guo pass the news back and forth really fell into the hands of Han Zhang.

Will those people reveal his identity.

Liu Jingchen felt a chill on his neck, and cold sweat had already flowed down the collar.

The traitor is the spy of the Jin Kingdom.

The emperor's anger immediately turned into surprise, and he turned his head to look at Chang Ankang, who immediately handed over the battle report to the emperor.

After reading the battle report hastily, the emperor slapped it on the imperial case with a "snap": "It's nonsense, obviously Han Zhang is unwilling to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but he is afraid of falling into the Jin people's lure plan." ”

The emperor said with a pale face: "Why didn't Rong Guogong send a war report for so long, but waited until King Qing rebelled before sending news to Beijing, taking this opportunity to spread rumors in the capital, his heart can be punished." ”

The emperor's eyes widened: "I asked him to go to Beijing to rescue him, but he stayed in Zhending, and then I should have let people capture him and enter Beijing." ”

"I should have seen a long time ago that Rong Guogong is the Qingwang Party, who else," the emperor sneered and looked at the officials in the main hall, "Who else is the Qingwang Party." ”

King Shou couldn't help but be shocked, at this time, the emperor's eyes were still on King Qing, he really shouldn't have entered the palace today, he should have given up like the queen mother.

Give up the emperor in front of you.

"Oh," the cry came, "lightly, you all lightly, what do you drag me to do, I haven't made a mistake, I'm not in good clothes, I can't face you." ”

King Shou raised his eyes, turned his head, and he heard King Shu's voice.

After the death of the crown prince, everyone forgot about this useless King Shu.

The door of the main hall opened, Zhao Liao stepped forward to say goodbye, and then the two guards put King Shu into the main hall.

King Shu kept kicking his feet, trying to break free from the guards' grip, and when he saw the emperor and the others, he had to give up and knelt on the ground like a puddle of mud.

Everyone looked at King Shu in the main hall curiously, he was dressed in rags and looked like a beggar on the street, if it wasn't for King Shu speaking in advance, no one would believe that this person was actually the prince of Daqi.

King Shu knelt down on the main hall: "Your Majesty, Weichen is guilty, Weichen is guilty of failing to protect the prince." As he spoke, he kept bowing, and as soon as he kowtowed twice, something rolled out of his arms.

It's a yellow gold cake.

King Shu hurriedly stretched out his hand and kicked the golden cake into his arms again, pretending that nothing had happened.

"Your Majesty," Zhao Liao said, "Prince Shu was about to escape from the city, but he was hit by Wei Chen, and I heard from the herald that Prince Shu was entrusted by the Duke of Rongguo to bring the war situation in the north back to the capital." ”

As soon as Zhao Liao's words fell, King Shu immediately retorted: "No, no, I don't know that...... I'm not familiar with that Han Zhang...... How can I spread any war situation, no...... There really isn't...... I was just...... I just heard about King Ning...... Escaped...... Yes, I am going to join the army to avenge the crown prince. ”

It was clear that he wanted to flee when he saw that the situation was bad, but he used such a ridiculous excuse.

King Shu's face was greedy for life and afraid of death, which made the emperor's heart full of anger.

"The crown prince was killed by King Ning, where did you go?" the emperor said, "What about the rest of the Shu Palace?

Zhao Liao said: "Princess Shu has already left Beijing with people. ”

There was another commotion around.

This time, even King Shou frowned, and his face was angry: "What the hell is going on? Rong Guogong can ask someone to send news back to Beijing?"

King Shu also lowered his head: "Rong Guogong asked Weichen to send it, but Weichen heard that the emperor arrested the Qingwang Party, then Rongguo Gong is the righteous brother of Princess Qing, and he must also be the Qingwang Party...... It's useless, and maybe it will also be regarded as a Qingwang party because of this, so it's better to ...... It's not as good as ......."

King Shou shouted: "Confused, as a relative of the emperor, you are so ...... Overwhelmed ......"

King Shu looked aggrieved: "Weichen didn't have a ...... Leave...... Weichen also wrote a secret letter to the Ministry of Officials, asking him to report to the emperor on behalf of the ministers, who knew that the Ministry of Officials and Shangshu fled overnight," Speaking of this, he raised his head, swallowed, and moistened his throat, "We have a spy of the Jin State in Daqi, and the Duke of Rongguo received news as early as a few days ago that King Qing will be jealous of the emperor after returning to Beijing, and when the emperor begins to arrest King Qing, there will be civil strife in Beijing, and the forbidden army and the two princes will be defeated, which is the best time for the Jin Kingdom to go south." ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned in horror.

A few days ago, the emperor had not ordered the arrest of King Qing.

Even King Qing has not yet entered Beijing, but the news has already reached the northern fortress.

There must be a spy from the Jin Kingdom, otherwise there would be no such news, and this spy is in a high position, at least he knows the emperor's mind very well.

If there is such a person in the Great Qi court, it is the biggest disaster.

"Your Majesty, this matter must be investigated. ”

There are already officials who can't hold back.

"Your Majesty, this disaster is worse than King Qing, and it must be prevented immediately. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Jin Kingdom should not be underestimated, when they kidnapped the crown prince, they had ill intentions. ”

A buzzing sound resounded in the emperor's ears, and he never thought that there would be a spy of the Jin Kingdom around him. Whether King Shu's words are true or false, he can't tell what the situation will be now, now that the capital is empty, and the people of the Jin Kingdom are really attacking the city in the south, what will be the situation.

The emperor suddenly regretted that he shouldn't have attacked King Qing first.
