Chapter Forty-Nine: Court Questioning

………………

"Hmph."

In the deserted palace, the flickering candlelight on both sides, blowing slightly with the wind, as if a spring had passed, swinging over the pillars that ran out, and the golden Huilong pillar that shone in the circle and as big as a hundred-year-old tree, fell on the kneeling on the ground three or two, bowing their heads in horror, clenching their teeth, and their lips sometimes met and sometimes opened.

The cold armor, some dark official robes, but at the moment there is no divine power of the animals flying on the official robes, a little fallen leaves falling on the majestic giant mountain, flying in the endless sky, unable to find the fall home, the candlelight illuminates the panic in their hearts, and they dare not raise their heads.

"That's what you said to me? A good flower party, in Chang'an City, the imperial capital of my Heavenly Dynasty, there is such a major event, and there is an assassination of the imperial court officials at the foot of the Great Dynasty, what are you Yulin Army and Jin Wuwei doing to eat? Watching those killers swagger away, you're slashing your face. ”

Thunder and rage, the voice shook the palace, cold and echoed in the heart, unable to eliminate the panic in his heart, Sima Long was at a loss, kneeling down, the armor pressed on his body, and his eyes were aimed at the dead fat man beside him, it was all this damn fat man, such a big thing, you actually let those thieves leave, isn't this a slap in the face of His Majesty?

Moreover, you bastard, this kind of big thing, you also want to hide from the world, thinking that you can get rid of the past with money, and once you get rid of it, I don't know how you, a dead fat man, sat in this position, don't think that your official position is low, and you can rest assured that you have someone above to support you, hum, I don't know whether you live or die.

"Your Majesty is angry, I think they don't want to either, Your Majesty, your body is more important, the Imperial Doctor told Your Majesty to take care of your body, you can't get angry easily, Your Majesty, you can rest a little."

Stretched out his hand beside him, gently touched his Li Zhi's chest, rubbed it, kneaded it slowly, without any melody, without any blame, and did not pretend to the people kneeling below, worried about Li Zhi's cough.

Li Zhou's angry look saw this person, his angry red eyes suddenly dimmed slightly, and his tenderness gradually revealed, and he sighed while coughing: "What Mei Niang said is that I am not angry, I am not angry." ”

Saying that, her eyes glared at the people below, Wu Meiniang smiled and soothed Li Zhi's heart, and said lightly: "Tell me what happened at that time?" ”

The words did not ask too much, and there was no sense of blame, that is, the hearts of the following people twisted, their bodies trembled, and they did not dare to be dissatisfied, Liu Renliang beside the fat man sorted out his clothes, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty!" The old minister can't stand you, the old minister ....... ”

The crying came spontaneously, people in their seventies and eighties, still crying, Wu Meiniang's face was still cold, full of smiles, the autumn color between her eyebrows flashed a little light, and then listened to them quietly, Li Zhi couldn't see this scene, and the coughing continued for a while, not saying why, not saying whether you are guilty or not, waiting for them to reply.

Liu Renliang cried and said: "Your Majesty, at that time, the old minister was announcing the start of the flower party, and the flower meeting came as scheduled, without any abnormality, as in previous years, the old minister thought that there was no major event, so he didn't care about it anymore, but just when the old minister thought that the flower meeting was about to end, the old minister saw a person ....... ”

The voice said the back, gradually trembling, I don't know if it was deliberate, or if it was the case, Sima Long's eyes beside him were purring, his eyes were round, and he glanced at the old man fiercely, and the fat-headed and big-eared Huang Daonan beside him looked vaguely at himself, an adult who was very embarrassed, was thrown off his horse, covered in mud, and there was still some residual evidence in his hair.

The man? Who is it? How did I not know that there was such a person, wasn't it just those assassins? Who else? Except for the chief envoy who was present at that time, he was the biggest, who would appear and make this chief envoy's face turn cold?

"Who?"

"Old minister...... The old minister ....... ”

Bite one's tongue.

The voice above became even colder, glaring at him, and said gloomily: "Who?" ”

The smile on Wu Meiniang's face next to her was even brighter, her glow flickered, and a few strands of hair fell out, without losing her charm.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's three...... His Royal Highness the Third Prince? ”

Liu Renliang looked at the faces of the two people above, and his heart was constantly worried and entangled.

Sure enough, Li Zhi paused for a while, his hand movements slowed down a little, Wu Meiniang's smile stiffened on her face, she was stunned for a while, and quickly returned to her original state, with a smile on her mouth, red lips and white teeth, as if that person had nothing to do with herself.

"Zhe'er? He's also there? Shen muttered, the voice was very small, the people below, the people around him heard it clearly, quietly waiting for an answer, but the people above were silent for a long time, and Liu Renliang's heart became more and more cold, anxious, panicked, and pinched.

Sima Longtou is even more, His Royal Highness the Third Prince Li Zhe, he is also here, and you old bastard, even if he is here, you old boy can't say it, do you kid want to die?

His Royal Highness the Third Prince is also there, and there is also an assassination there, if he has three long and two short, Liu Renliang your kid is hanging in the skin, and this dead fat man, so he can't die and meet this old bastard, I really don't know if you are lucky or not.

Of course, these are none of my Yu Linwei's affairs, you Jin Wuwei is annoying, when I meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince, it will be no good thing, the scar man thing, but it has made his brain hurt for a long time, if it weren't for Brother Di Renjie's help, he, I'm afraid he would be dismissed.

As for you, take care of it yourself.

The silent, deserted palace became even more deserted and somewhat depressing.

I didn't dare to breathe, for fear that making a little noise would disturb His Majesty's thinking, and every minute would be a major U-turn.

"What's wrong with Tetsu'er?"

After being silent for a long time, and finally had a voice, Liu Renliang took a deep breath and replied respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Third Prince is fine, he has returned to the Zhou Palace, please rest assured, Your Majesty." ”

"Yes."

…………

was silent again, Wu Meiniang's eyes looked at Li Zhi beside her from time to time, she didn't interject, she didn't speak, she didn't express her attitude, she laughed slightly, and waited for Liu Renliang below to be unlucky, and it was best to die.

"Do you know where those thieves came from?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the lower officials don't know, those thieves came and went in a hurry, nothing was left, the lower officials couldn't find a trace, and there was no way to know where these thieves came from and where they went."

Frightened, trembling and trembling, sweat wet his back, a big bead dripped from his forehead, snapped, echoed in the palace, the fat head and big ears choked a few mouthfuls, lowered his head, and muttered: "It's none of my business, it's none of my business, you can't see me, you can't see me;." ”

"Oh."

"This person is ...... again."

"Back to Your Majesty, this person is the organizer of this flower party, Huang Daonan, the envoy of Jin Wuwei Right Street." Liu Renliang told the truth, didn't dare to hide anything, sold this dead fat pig that he hated so much in a few words, dared not to save me, and pushed the official out to die, hum, dead fat pig, the old man doesn't kill you, the old man is your son.

The dead fat man's crimes against him are too numerous to mention, if he doesn't take revenge, if he doesn't kill this dead fat pig, how can he Liu Renliang still mix up in Chang'an.

"Oh, it turned out to be you."

Li Zhi nodded suddenly, his eyes looked at him with a deep meaning, as if he could see through his details at a glance, all the evil deeds, those dirty things in the past, suddenly appeared, the fat head and big ears Huang Daonan choked up, a pair of thighs much bigger than a pig kept trembling, and the urine was surging, and he almost couldn't help it.

"Back to Your Majesty, the lower official is really."

Huang Daonan didn't dare to hide it, and quickly replied, Li Zhi glanced at him and didn't say anything, he knew something about this person, he was the source of the assassination case, and those thieves were so crazy to kill him at the Chang'an Flower Meeting, fortunately, no one died, but this person could not escape the blame.

"Sima Long."

A cold call frightened Sima Long, who was kneeling outside the world, suddenly sobered up, and didn't have time to tidy up his clothes, and responded loudly: "The lower official is here, Your Majesty." ”

Li Zhi glanced at the three of them seriously, waved his hand weakly, and said, "This matter will be handed over to you Yu Linwei, as for Jin Wuwei, hum." ”

"The subordinate obeys." Sima Long's face was a little bitter, he always had to come when he shouldn't come, why did all the bad things fall on me, can you let me enjoy it.

After Sima Long was appointed, Liu Renliang wiped the sweat on his forehead, some legs were weak and withdrew, Huang Daolong followed behind him in fright, not daring to look around, after going out, Huang Daolong exhaled deeply, and looked at Liu Renliang with cold eyes, it was all this person, and he threw me out at a critical time, didn't this let me die? Hmph, dead old man, don't think that you are the prince's person, I am afraid of you, the dog will jump the wall when it is in a hurry, and the rabbit will bite when it is in a hurry, I am in a hurry, and I am not finished with you.

He seemed to have completely forgotten what he had done before, Liu Renliang glared at him fiercely, waved his big hand, the wind was whistling, he didn't say a word, and left the palace, leaving Sima Long staring at the fat head and big ears, and jokingly: "Lord Huang, are you going to be miserable now?" ”

"Master Sima, how can you say he can be like this? I'm ...... anyway. ”

"I know, I understand, Lord Huang doesn't need to say more, let's go back." Sima Long doesn't want to have anything to do with this person, anyway, an abandoned chess piece has no effect, so I'd better do my thing.

Huang Daolong looked at them in the distance, why did he say this, go back? Where to go back?

I couldn't figure it out, and Huang Daolong disappeared into the palace with the night.

Half a month later, Huang Daolong was demoted to Bazhou, far away, and left Chang'an on the same day.
