Chapter 135: The Dust Has Settled

Leng Yiwei was annoyed in his heart, but he had to think about how to clear Su Jingyao's suspicion of framing, after all, he didn't want to lose Su Jingyao's chess piece, and it was indeed not easy to find such a person who also hated Leng Yixiu.

He had just been thinking in his mind, when he heard the woman say again: "Your Majesty, please also make the decision for the people's wife!" Call the shots for parents who have lost their children! ”

As soon as she said this, everyone was shocked and closed their mouths one after another, and Leng Yiwei opened his eyes, he vaguely felt that this time the matter seemed to be much more complicated than he imagined.

"This is natural," the emperor nodded, his face was solemn, it involved the lives of the people, the people's aspirations, he couldn't be sloppy, he turned his head to look at Leng Yixiu, his eyes had already recovered the temperature of the past, "Xiu'er, this time...... It's hard for you, I want to leave this matter to you to investigate, what do you think? ”

Leng Yixiu stepped forward and saluted: "Father, the minister has already found out about this matter, and those missing children have been rescued by someone." ”

"Huh!" Everyone's eyes are on Leng Yixiu, King Ning, who is deeply hidden, King Ning who has been silent, only then did he really show his edge, the general who had been on the battlefield was really more calm than ordinary people, he could even see life and death, what else could not be suppressed?

The fifth prince rolled his eyelids a little unwillingly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of the fourth prince's mouth, look...... The third brother is really waiting for the most powerful blow!

Leng Yiwei closed his eyes slightly again, and stood there with his head down, like an outsider, he knew in his heart that this time, he would not be able to protect Su Jingyao.

"Oh?" The Emperor's eyes lit up, "Where are those children?" ”

"Far away in front of you," Leng Yixiu smiled, "It's in Lord Su's garden!" ”

"You...... You are talking nonsense! Su Jingyao screamed, his beard trembled, and his old eyes widened, and he forgot even the most basic titles.

"What is this king talking about?" Leng Yixiu's tone was cold, and two cold lights burst out of his eyes, "Then let those people come up and talk about it!" He suddenly turned to the emperor and saluted: "Father, my son, please ask for your permission, those bitter lords come to the palace!" ”

"Father...... Isn't that wrong? The fifth prince came out and said: "Although the third brother has been wronged, this is the Jinluan Palace after all, if you let those ordinary people come up casually......"

"Fifth Prince, don't forget! The people are the foundation of the country, it is true that this is the Jinluan Palace, and it is true that it is the center of power, but this is also the will of the people, and this is their heaven! Let them see the face of heaven and know that the emperor has them in his heart, and let them be more loyal to the monarch and patriotism is the most correct way! Grass people are like water, they can carry boats and capsize boats! The five princes should not fall into the ranks of the faint monarchs! Rong Xi reprimanded angrily, and his words were loud, and for a while, there was no sound in the hall, only the suppressed breathing of hundreds of officials.

Leng Yixiu's heart was also shocked, he didn't expect Rong Xi to be able to say such a thing, this is not something that a young lady who has been raised in the boudoir can say, after the shock, there is a huge joy, his princess! His Rongxi is really different!

The emperor's expression changed when he sat on it, his heart was not untouched, on the contrary, it was very deeply touched, like a reef collapsing in his heart, in fact, at the beginning his thoughts were almost the same as the five princes, how could those grass people set foot here lightly? They only deserve to look up!

However, Rong Xi's words seemed to be a slap in the face, although they were harsh, but he could hear that he was really thinking about him from his standpoint, and those words were said by countless officials who did not dare to say it in front of him, but the young man in front of him said it angrily, like a warrior who defended his dignity.

His heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, he couldn't be a faint king! He waved his sleeves, and the five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on the cuffs seemed to break out of his sleeves, "Someone!" Declare them to the temple! ”

The fifth prince retreated stupidly, the emperor's order undoubtedly gave him a resounding slap in the face, he gritted his teeth and glanced at Rong Xi hatefully.

Rong Xi is not afraid of him, if his eyes can kill, he would have died countless times, and it would not be his turn to stare at him five princes to death.

More than a dozen figures of all sizes appeared on the high steps outside the hall, supporting each other, staggering and cowardly, walking into the hall one after another, kneeling down from afar, and bowing to the ground one after another. ”

"Who are you waiting for?" The Emperor's voice came from afar, as if from a distant horizon.

An old man led by "I'll wait for ......" bowed again, and said with a trembling voice: "It's a villager in the western suburbs of the city, who suddenly lost a child in his family a few days ago, and was rescued yesterday, and the whole family was reunited." ”

"Where did you find your children?" The Emperor asked.

"Back to His Majesty, it was at the back door of a separate garden, and the little old man had turned to the front and secretly glanced at it, and he only recognized one Su character in the word on it."

"You talk nonsense!" Su Jingyao almost jumped up, gritted his teeth and twisted his eyebrows, his face was as hideous as a ghost.

"Your Majesty, little old man doesn't dare to talk nonsense!" The old man trembled and bowed again.

"Whether it's nonsense or not, you'll find out when you check it." The emperor waved his hand, and the left and right guards led the order, "Go, check the Su family's annex, I believe that if this matter is true, there will be some traces left." ”

"Yes!" The guards took the order, their armor rattling, and the sound of the iron striking shook people's hearts.

Time is difficult, the hall is silent, most of the people are hanging their eyelids, not daring to look around, today's things are too weird, King Ning was originally at a disadvantage, and suddenly there were witnesses and evidence wave after wave, and Su Jingyao, who was originally righteous and awe-inspiring, was forced into a dead end step by step, seeing that his life was not guaranteed today.

The sunlight outside the main hall was warm, shining on the white jade steps and railings, flashing with a strange light, shaking people's eyes painfully, and finally ......

The sound of footsteps sounded on the steps, and the sound of the guards' iron armor was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears, and everyone's breathing couldn't help but tighten again.

"Back to Your Majesty!" The leader of the guards gave a salute in the hall, and the sound resounded through the hall like a bell, "A child's shoes and a few pieces of rags were found in a firewood room in the palace of Lord Su. ”

Leng Yiwei closed his eyes, Su Jingyao was completely finished.

As soon as Su Jingyao heard this, he instantly collapsed to the ground, he really didn't know how this matter suddenly became like this, obviously the child was dead, obviously he was buried in the grove near Ningwang Villa, how did it become his own villa?

He knew in his heart that no matter how this matter turned out to be like this, the result was already like this, he couldn't argue, and he would only end up with one end left, which was a dead end, unless......

He turned his head to look at Leng Yiwei who was standing in the queue as if asking for help, knelt down and crawled a few steps, the beard under his mouth trembled vigorously, "Lord Wang......"

Leng Yiwei's heart jumped, his eyes opened instantly, he really wanted to rush up and kick this old guy to death, his head fainted? What do you do with yourself in this kind of moment? Even if you want to save it, you are not on the cusp of this storm, that will only make you passive!

He gritted his teeth and said before Su Jingyao could speak: "Father, the ministers think that Lord Su's crime is conclusive, and for the sake of fairness, please leave it to the third division to decide." ”

"You!" Su Jingyao's head was empty, and his eyes felt dark, he never thought that at such a critical time, King Qi would abandon him and leave!

King Qi's cold eyes swept over, and his eyes clearly warned him, if he talked nonsense again, he framed King Ning first, and then bit King Qi, these two points alone were enough to condemn him to death!

"Oh?" Leng Yixiu smiled faintly, "Why does Eighth Brother think it's more fair to hand him over to the Third Division?" ”

"Naturally," Leng Yiwei nodded and said, "At least we have to find out why he framed the third brother?" He didn't frame so many people, why did he frame the third brother? Doesn't the third brother want to know? ”

"Brother Wei wants to know, but I'm afraid that the third division won't be able to ask." Leng Yixiu made a pun, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a sarcastic arc.

The emperor waved his hand, "I also want to know what the reason for this incident is, and I must also give an explanation to the people for the case of the lost child that has made a lot of noise, just as the eighth said, it will be handled by the third division, and a result must be tried." ”

He paused, and then said to Leng Yixiu: "Xiu'er, recently the Admiral of Jiumen has been on sick leave, and the security in the capital needs to be properly managed, you take over his position first, so that the people can see the determination of the imperial court." ”

All the ministers gasped, this is to empower King Ning, Admiral of the Nine Commanders! Take charge of the security of the capital! Is this the emperor's consolation for King Ning being wronged this time?

Leng Yixiu hurriedly bent down to salute, showing his determination to govern, while Leng Yiwei clenched his hands tightly into a fist, and his face was pale and bloodless with anger.

Rong Xi suddenly walked up to him and asked nervously, "Ah, what's wrong with His Royal Highness King Qi?" Are you feeling unwell? The old problem again? I still know a little bit about the art of Qihuang, why don't I show you? ”

"Not necessarily!" King Qi flicked his sleeves, and there was a hint of disgust in his drooping eyes, he really didn't have a good impression of this Ning Xi who suddenly appeared.

"Your Highness, don't shy away from the doctor, I will conclude that if you are not treated this time, you may be sick for a while." There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Rong Xi's mouth, but this smile was a little meaningful in Leng Yiwei's eyes, warm and ambiguous, but he was in an irritable mood at the moment, and he couldn't think of anything for a while.

The emperor announced his retirement from the court, and the ministers walked out of the hall with their own thoughts, only to feel that the two days were strange, and they became really fast, and the inside and outside of the hall seemed to be two heavens, and the situation had changed so much between one out and one in.
