When Li Hui left the Taiji Palace, night had already fallen, and a cold moon rose in the sky. Before you know it, it's early autumn. The cool night breeze was blowing, his clothes fluttered in the wind, and the young man's thin and slender body seemed to be able to go with the wind in the next moment. When he walked outside the palace gate, he suddenly looked back, and the Taiji Palace behind him was like a giant beast lurking in the shadows, watching him silently.

This behemoth seems

Thinking of this, his gaze became more and more dazed.

Empress Du's words of persuasion seemed to sound in his ears: "Xuan Qi, the case of rebellion is a serious matter, and it is definitely not something that a few people can control. After the trial of the Yue Wangfu case begins, there will inevitably be forces from all sides vying to appear. And you children are the weakest, and getting involved in this case will only give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of. I understand that you want to do your best to save the Yue Palace, but now the most important thing is to save the Pu Palace. If the Pu Wangfu is accidentally implicated, the situation can no longer be controlled. ”

At that time, he didn't dare to ask in detail, and now he doesn't want to think about it anymore - all forces are vying to appear, could it be that in addition to Princess An Xing and her henchmen, there are also many people who also want the Yue Wangfu to fall completely? For them, what benefits will the collapse of the Yue Wangfu bring to them? Uncle...... Does my uncle want that too? So his uncle, who knew his mind best, specially reminded him early?

Oh, sure enough, he's still too naïve.

Yes, in the previous life, the Yue Wangfu was also slandered and rebelled, and finally the Yue King Li Heng was hanged, the Yue Princess Wang committed suicide by poisoning, and all the sons were exiled to Lingnan. It is said that at that time, his uncle also interceded for the second father, but as a result, Qin An, the Duke of Wu who was the left servant of Shangshu Province at the time, insisted on punishing him by law. Later, it was rumored that Qin An, the Duke of Wu, was not angry that the first emperor wanted to establish Li Heng, the king of Yue, as the crown prince, so he took revenge on him and designed to kill him. However, a few years later, the Duke of Wu was destroyed, and his descendants were also exiled to Lingnan, and everyone applauded, believing that this was karma.

But why did no one ever think that Qin An would kill Li Heng by mistake, who was it for? The biggest beneficiary of this matter is by no means the Duke of Wu - perhaps there is the eldest princess of An Xing and her henchmen, or there may be the Yang family who is secretly plotting against her. And what about the uncle who wept bitterly and pleaded for his brother? -- The ruling power became more and more secure, and there were no more capable brothers who threatened his throne, and he gained a reputation for filial piety, and he also got an excuse to get rid of the Qin family in the future, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop.

It is true that the uncle in the previous life and the uncle of the present life can never be exactly the same, and the political situation in the previous life is not consistent with the current situation where the enemy is clearly distinguished. But this does not mean that my uncle is not afraid of Yue Wangfu and Pu Wangfu, and he will not have the mind of "following the trend". If there is an opportunity to preserve his reputation and gain real profit, how can he not hold on to it?

Even if the eldest princess of Qinghe is still alive, Qin An, the duke of Wu, said that he was sick and did not interfere in the affairs of the court, and it was impossible to bear the charge of "framing" the king of Yue. But, isn't there still Princess Anxing and her henchmen? They are the enemy, and this game is what they set up, and it is only natural that the charges will be carried out in the future. And King Jing and Gong Xu Ye of Jian Guo, who tried the case this time, must also be able to share the role of "advising the saint to enforce the law impartially".

Li Hui couldn't help but feel a chill rise in his heart. Perhaps, in the case that many people hope that the Yue Wangfu will be overturned, under the "human evidence" of the king of Langling County and the carefully built "physical evidence", the Yue Wangfu really has no chance to turn over. However, he couldn't watch his second father, Li Heng, die unjustly like in his previous life, and the second mother, Wang, then committed suicide.

Even if he is single and weak, there must be something he can do!!

After returning to King Pu's mansion, Li Hui and Wang Zixian had an evening meal together. Because of the heavy mind and the fact that the things of his previous life are not suitable to be told all at the moment, he is always a little absent-minded. After eating some food tastelessly, he put down the jade chopstick, frowned and instructed the maid, "Put some ice in the study, I must think carefully about the countermeasures tonight." ”

The prince glanced at him: "Xuanqi, do you want to think of countermeasures alone in the study?" Why don't you talk about the situation of today's confrontation, and I will help you think about it carefully? In addition, the troops sent to Nanshan have returned, saying that Zimu, He Cheng, Luo Niang and Xiang Niang, as well as all the monks of Yincia Temple, seem to have been taken to Zongzheng Temple by Jin Wuwei. In this way, they could not say that they were involved in the case in a vague way, and they don't know what they all saw. ”

"Soshoji Temple?" Li Hui finally came back to his senses, and his face immediately changed, "Where is the Cicada Temple located?" Is it closer to the Nanshan Palace, or closer to the Taoist temple where the prince returned to the county under house arrest? ”

Wang Zixian did not answer, but led him to the soft couch: I don't know when, he had drawn a detailed map of Nanshan. If you look closely, the mountain peaks are meandering, dozens of temples are dotted among them, and the royal palace and the family manor at the foot of the mountain are still eye-catching.

According to the trilogy, the temple, palace and manor of Nanshan should be located like this. You see, the Cicada Temple is here. ”

Li Hui's eyes fell on the Cicada Temple, and then he realized that it was actually built on top of the cliff in the sky: "Although the cliff here seems to be not far from the palace, it is impossible to see the Nanshan fire due to the limited field of vision." And the temples on the mountainside of these several mountains, on the contrary, can see the palace from afar. ”

On several hills on the outskirts of the palace, no temples have been built. After all, the emperor's concubine lives in the summer, and it is impossible to allow people to snoop at will. And this also makes the palace somewhat isolated from the world, and even if something suddenly happens, it is difficult to teach people to notice. However, the raging fire was deliberately aimed at attracting the attention of others - perhaps at the right time, so that people could "discover" the "hidden" armor and the corpses of the dead guards.

"Under the cliff where the cicada temple is located, there is also a small Taoist temple that is not well known." The prince said, "Perhaps the king of Guizheng County was under house arrest here before, guarded by the Taoist priests inside. I think what Zimu and what they saw should be the scene of the so-called 'disappearance' of the king of the returned county. Perhaps, they also met with those who 'robbed' the prince of the county. After all, if you want to go to the Taoist temple at the bottom of the cliff, there is no other way, you must pass near the Cicada Temple, there is a rugged and difficult path. ”

"Perhaps, they just heard or saw something strange that night." Li Hui groaned slightly, and said in confusion, "Otherwise, if they meet, they will record the appearance and figure of those people." Those murderers knew that they would be difficult to hide their traces if they let go of the people in the Cicada Temple, so why didn't they cut down the grass and eradicate the roots? ”

"If they go all the way, they only need to follow the Nanshan Mountains into the Qinling Mountains, and no one can find a trace. Therefore, even if the appearance and body shape are remembered, it should not hurt. Or, they deliberately did it, leaving behind the people of the Cicada Temple, revealing clues, and attracting the investigators to continue to track down. In the end, however, all they found was the evidence they had prepared. ”

"According to you, even if you track them down, it will only prove that they are the Second Father's people. In this way, it can prove what the king of Langling said, and at the same time completely confirm other relevant evidence? "When there is a purpose or prejudice in his heart, as long as some of the testimony of the king of Langling is proved to be "true," then his other testimony is very likely to be "true" even if there is no direct evidence - the person who tried the case may be convinced: if he said these things to be true, how can other words be false?

Li Hui had to admit that this game was really cleverly done. The layout of Princess Anxing's party is a real "one-hit hit", leaving no room for the Yue Palace. Even if many people know in their hearts that 10% of this case of rebellion is a game, and all kinds of evidence are false. Even so, they couldn't find any loopholes to break the situation. And many people who were originally unrelated also chose to simply enter the bureau and tear off another piece of flesh and blood from the Yue Wangfu.

For a moment, he felt that his feelings were like surging waves, sometimes angry, sometimes regretful, sometimes helpless, sometimes dazed, sometimes painful.

Why didn't he notice anything when he got caught in the game? Obviously, in his previous life, he had heard about the case of Yue Wangfu being framed for rebellion, why did he think that the second father was vigilant enough, so he could rest assured that he would not repeat the mistakes of the past? If only he could have reminded him a few more words, if he could have been more sensitive......

"Xuanqi." Wang Zixian noticed that his feelings were changing very quickly, and he was completely immersed in it, so he couldn't help but call him, "This matter is not your fault, why do you have to take all the current experience of the Yue Wangfu to yourself?" Not to mention the culprits, it is Princess An Xing, King Peng and the traitors who are secretly colluding with them. Even if you want to blame, you can only blame Yue Wangfu for being too negligent. ”

Hearing this, Li Hui's eyes were slightly red: "What are you referring to, the king of Guizheng County and the king of Langling County?" Perhaps in their previous lives, these two also defected to Princess Anxing and sued their father for rebellion. But he was far away in Junzhou, he didn't know the truth at all, and he never thought that there would be such disloyal, unfilial and unfilial people in Yue Wangfu!!

"The King of Guizheng County and the King of Langling County served the enemy and wanted to put their parents and brothers to death, and their hearts were indeed very rare." The prince said, "But how can His Royal Highness King Yue and Princess Yue not be at fault?" The two of them are the elders of the Yue Wangfu, but they don't know that the people in the family are not aligned, and the estrangement between father and son, mother and son, and brothers has reached the point of hatred. The house is restless, and they never realize it, this is their mistake. ”

"Even so, I can't watch them be framed and die-"

"The case has just begun, so why are you in a hurry? If you think about it, you will definitely be able to find a solution. ”

"How can you not be in a hurry? If my uncle has a heart, this case can be closed in just ten days!! ”

"Why should a saint be like this?"

Li Hui fell silent. The saint's mind did not reveal half of it, and what he had thought before was just speculation. And this kind of dark speculation is not suitable as evidence at all.

Wang Zixian took him into his arms and whispered, "I understand your worries right now. However, don't get too emotional at the moment. When you're calmed down, we'll talk about what to do. ”
