"When Concubine Ai said this, I remembered the case of the killing of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee in the past few years, and there is a lot of *** related to him." Under Tuoba Tao's association, the whole thing gradually revealed its clues.

"Then Your Majesty should be careful with him!" Feng Zhaoyi kindly reminded Tuoba Tao.

"I know, don't worry, concubine!" After saying that, he patted Feng Zhaoyi's hand and went to the morning court.

At night, Tuoba Tao summoned Tuoba Han, the king of Dongping, to discuss secretly in the Taihua Palace.

Tuoba Han, the third son of Tuoba Tao, worshiped together with Genga as the general of the forbidden army of the outer court. Tuoba Han was loyal, noble, and upright, and was treated with great respect by the officials. Before, he received the grace of Gao Yun in the school, and later his style of action was to promote the style of Gao Yun.

"My father came to you to ask how the prince's poisoning case was going." Tuoba Tao gets straight to the point.

"Back to my father, my son's ministers found out that the case of the poisoning of the imperial brother may be related to the Imperial Physician Qiu of the Imperial Physician's Office and the Gongzong Ai of Qinjun." Tobahan will report the results of the investigation truthfully.

"What basis do you have?" Tuoba Tao can't believe the groundless news now, afraid that he will be wrong again and again.

"Back to my father, the poisoning of this imperial brother was caused by the gangster's use of the principle of medicine and jealousy, which proved that the murderer understood medicine, so Erchen began to investigate from the Tai Doctor of the Tai Doctor Department, and among these Tai Doctors, Erchen found that only Qiu Tai Yi's whereabouts were unknown, and he was often sneaky, so Erchen sent someone to follow him, and it turned out that he had a private relationship with Zong Ai. Later, Erchen visited the ministers again, and some officials said that they had seen the two quietly plotting something at the group banquet on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Erchen knew that the imperial brother had a long-standing grudge with Zong Ai, so it was inferred that the case of the imperial brother's poisoning must have a great connection with them. "Tuoba Khan has been meticulous in every detail of the case and has been able to investigate it with ease.

"If it is really according to what you said, your imperial brother has repeatedly asked me to impeach Zongai, is it because he really has any handle for Zongai in his hands?" Tuoba Tao also pushed the boat down the river and thought it through.

"Quite possibly! It is precisely because the imperial brother has the evidence of Zong Ai's crime that Zong Ai and Imperial Physician Qiu can't wait to poison the imperial brother and kill people. After listening to Tuoba Tao's words, Tuoba Han must have done it.

The more Tuoba Tao thought about it, the more frightened he became, and felt that if this was the case, wouldn't the traitors he had killed before all be loyal ministers? Thinking of this, Tuoba Tao was annoyed, regretted, and hated Zongai in his heart.

Suddenly, Qi Daode panicked and broke into the hall with a lantern, tripped over himself, fell heavily to the ground, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and his mouth trembled: "Your Majesty, the prince...... Prince ......"

"What's wrong with the prince?" Tuoba Tao and the two hurriedly approached and hurriedly asked.

"Prince...... Prince...... Not...... Finish. As soon as Qi Daode finished speaking, his face was full of dragon bells.

"What!" Tuoba Tao felt that his eyes were suddenly dark, his feet seemed to be stepping on floating clouds, and his body fell to the side flutteringly.

Tuoba Han grabbed Tuoba Tao, and helped Tuoba Tao back to the dragon collapse to rest.

Tuoba Tao came to his senses, couldn't stop grieving, and said to himself: "It's all because I hurt the prince!"

"The emperor's brother is deceased, don't be too sad for your father! Now, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with the aftermath of the imperial brother first! "Compared with Tuoba Tao, Tuoba Han is much more stable.

"You're right! This matter of love, let's put it aside for now, and wait for the prince to come out of the funeral! You go and arrange the funeral for your imperial brother, you must be grand and decent, you know? Tuoba Tao was saddened, and there was no longer enough energy to spend with them.

"The retainers obey!"

Tuoba Han received the emperor's order and turned to leave.

The next day, there was a great funeral in the palace, and the whole palace was white.

Taihua Palace.

Gao Yun sobbed and saw him with tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty, please see you!" Qi Daode replied.

"What is he here for?" Gao Yun repeatedly advised him to die rather than die, which made Tuoba Tao inexplicably afraid.

"I don't know why, I saw him crying silently, waiting outside the main hall."

"Call him in!"

When Tuoba Tao heard this, he already had a rough idea in his heart.

Gao Yun couldn't help but kneel on the ground when he saw Tuoba Tao, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty" cried loudly, and didn't say anything else, just raised the things in his hand high and got up and put them on the dragon case, and then knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times in a row, and shook out of the door tremblingly.

Tuoba Tao didn't blame, nor did he speak, but his expression was solemn.

Seeing this situation, Qi Daode didn't know what dumb riddle the two were playing, so he asked strangely: "Your Majesty, why didn't Lord Gao enter the hall and just cry bitterly, and Your Majesty was saddened by it?"

Tuoba Tao sighed and said carefully: "In the case of Cui Haoxiu's "National History" that day, this Gao Yun should be executed together, but it was only the prince of the East Palace who pleaded for him to avoid death. Today, the prince passed away, and Gao Yun thought of yesterday's events when he saw me, and his heart was naturally very sad! ”

"I see! What a loyal man this tall man is! Qi Daode is also sincerely emotional.

Tuoba Tao picked up the things handed over by Gao Yun, which turned out to be the account books and letters that the prince asked Tuoba Tao to hand over. Tuoba Tao flipped through a few pages, hurriedly opened a few letters, and found that between the lines were all kinds of ironclad evidence of Zongai's crimes, and in his heart it was overturned, beyond words, and he regretted his past. Suddenly, Tuoba Tao twisted the letter in his hand and threw it out, kicked over the dragon case in front of him again, and shouted through gritted teeth: "I must break Zongai into ten thousand pieces!" I must kill him with my own hands~ ”

The folds, scrolls, pen and ink were scattered all over the place, and the morality did not move at all, so he could only get angry with Tuoba Tao.

Tuoba Tao raised his back to the sky and roared: "Huang'er, my father can't stand you!"

A loud bang alarmed Jia Zhou, who was inspecting the Taihua Palace.

"What sound? It came from His Majesty's room! Check it out! Immediately, Jia Zhou led more than a dozen forbidden troops from the inner court to feel the door of the main hall.

(The forbidden army of the Northern Wei Dynasty is divided into the forbidden army of the inner court and the forbidden army of the outer court, and the forbidden army of the outer court is more than the forbidden army of the inner court)

In front of the main hall, several warriors did not look unusual, and Jia Zhou was also relieved. Walking forward, he asked in a low voice, "What was the sound just now?" What's going on inside? ”

Jia Zhou probed his brain and glanced at the hall a few more times, only to see that the dragon case was overturned on the ground, and the ground was in a mess, and he already had some meaning in his heart.

"General Hui, just now it was just the sound of His Majesty getting angry and turning over the table, and there is nothing wrong with the others!" The samurai replied.

"Why do you hear that?" Jia Zhou asked with concern.

"It seems to be because of Qin Jungong, and it seems to be because of the prince. It was too far away to hear clearly, but he only knew that Lord Gao Yungao had just met him and presented something to His Majesty, and His Majesty was angry and set off the Dragon Case. The samurai's words were blurred, and Jia Zhou became more and more suspicious.

"Qin Jungong? Prince? …… Don't? Jia Zhou's mouth kept chattering, and suddenly he suddenly realized, turned around and left in a hurry.
