Chapter 563: The coffin was opened
Sun Yanguan looked at the three words on the plaque and was stunned.
The two men in the shadows smiled deeply, and sure enough......
Sun Yanguan was stunned for a moment, the door suddenly opened, and a person walked out of it, not holding a lantern in his hand, but a pair of eyes were brighter than a lantern, and said in a low voice: "Who is coming?" ”
When Sun Yanguan heard that question, his body shook, he almost fell off the horse, holding the horse's neck with both hands, turned over and jumped off, the pain in his buttocks made him grin, but he didn't care about pumping, and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Xiaguan...... Sun Chengqiang came to see the prince. ”
The man seemed to smile slightly, but his smile was cold, and when he heard that it was Sun Chengqiang, he was not surprised at all, and said lightly: "It turned out to be Lord Sun, I originally thought that you should have come a long time ago, but I didn't think about it...... I just saw it today, but I'm worried about your unborn little son? ”
Sun Yanguan was confused when he heard the words in front, but when he heard the words behind him, he thought of what Guanyin said, and instantly understood what Guanyin meant by pointing him here, and he immediately stepped forward.
The two people in the black shadow watched him walk into the Qi Palace, jumped into the distance, and retreated silently.
It wasn't until they had crossed a few streets that the two stopped, and one of them muttered, "What a fool every year, and this year there are a lot of them." ”
"Huh?" Another raised eyebrows.
"I mean, pretending to be a magic stick is always the best magic weapon to deceive people." The speaker's eyebrows were reflected in the moonlight, revealing a pair of crystal eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, which was a sly smile.
Princess Ning, Rongxi.
"Ghosts and gods have always been afraid of mortals, and some inexplicable things can be explained when they meet the gods, and people are willing to believe in some unreasonable existence." Leng Yixiu said with a cold smile.
"That makes sense," Rong Xi nodded in agreement, "Next, Leng Yiwei can imagine what Sun Yanguan will do, and he can't do it if he doesn't want to, because there are immortals behind him." ”
Hearing the ridicule in her tone, Leng Yixiu also smiled faintly, "Then ...... We'll see tomorrow. ”
The night passed quickly, the morning sun jumped out of the horizon, the sun shone on the earth again, and the light like broken gold spilled into the main hall, and the emperor sat on the dragon chair with a gloomy face, which formed an opposite contrast to the sunny and beautiful weather outside the hall.
The hall was silent, even a needle could be heard, the wind outside had stopped, and the air in the hall seemed to be getting more and more viscous, making it a little difficult for people to breathe.
Sun Yanguan knelt in the middle, hung his head slightly, and closed his mouth, he had already said something amazing just now, which shocked everyone in the Manchu Dynasty.
The emperor was naturally also shocked, he stared, looked at Sun Yanguan below, and asked word by word, "What you said is true?" ”
"If you return to your majesty, Weichen will not dare to bully the king." Sun Yanguan bowed again.
"Lord Sun's words are really fresh," Leng Yixiu said slowly, his face seemed to be smiling, and the light in his slightly squinted eyes was like electricity, "You don't dare to bully the king, does this mean that this king has deceived the king?" ”
Sun Yanguan naturally knew that as soon as he said this, he would inevitably offend King Ning, but at this point, he had no other way, let alone ...... Some things are indeed seen with your own eyes.
"Lord Wang, Xiaguan is just to tell the truth, at that time on Xinghua Street, Xiaguan did see a woman who was very similar to Miss Lan, because Miss Lan was a meritorious person of my Dazhao, so Xiaguan was particularly impressed by her, and Xiaguan was also very shocked at that time, and after thinking about it all night, he finally decided to play the emperor." Sun Yanguan kowtowed upward, although the words were said to Leng Yixiu, but he always said it to the emperor.
Leng Yixiu's eyebrows were lightly raised, he slowly raised his hand, and the armor on his body made a slight sound, "Lord Sun, this king doesn't understand, how could you appear on Xinghua Road at that hour?" ”
"This ......" Sun Yanguan pursed his lips, "There is something going over there for the lower officials, it's just ...... I just happened to pass by and saw it. ”
"It's really a coincidence," Leng Yixiu said with a slight cold snort.
Sun Yanguan didn't dare to say more, he didn't dare to say that he was instructed by Guanyin to find Leng Yiwei, Leng Yiwei is still confined in the mansion now, and he didn't even go to the early dynasty, how dare he mention Leng Yiwei now?
When the emperor heard Leng Yixiu's question, his gaze at Sun Yanguan was also slightly cold, "Are you really sure that the woman you saw is Lan Shuyu?" ”
"Back to the emperor," Sun Yanguan pressed his head against the jade ground, cold to the bone, "The minister dares to be sure." ”
"Good!" The emperor's hand hit the dragon chair, and the hundred officials below couldn't help but hang their heads again, and they didn't dare to make a sound.
Leng Yixiu also lowered his head slightly, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneering smile.
Sure enough, the emperor's will came from above, "Since you ...... In this way, then it is okay, let's open the coffin for an autopsy, before Liang Jingyao of the Liang Mansion ordered to open the coffin for an autopsy, today I will make another will, this afternoon, I will open Lan Shuyu's coffin again. ”
At the decree, the hearts of the people were in an uproar, but the temple was quieter.
Everyone knows that Lan Shuyu's death was determined in Suming Villa, and at that time, Ning Wangfu was in charge of the funeral, and it was also a grand funeral, and now, what does it mean to open the coffin again?
Needless to say?
As soon as the emperor's words fell, someone immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice...... Miss Lan's death, when she was in Suming Villa, many people witnessed it with their own eyes, and the funeral was also handled by King Ning and Princess Ning. ”
"Lord Liu's words are wrong, if Miss Lan is not dead, then why is the deceased a freshman? And how can you go into the earth and be safe? Someone immediately retorted.
"What? Are you questioning what you saw with your own eyes at Ceming Villa? ”
"He who believes is also in his eyes, but his eyes are still not credible!"
"Hmph, you're talking cheerfully now, why didn't you say it in the first place? Don't forget, after the Blue Girl died, she was injured! ”
One sentence made everyone's debate stop abruptly.
Yes, it was tested once at that time, and besides, the person was sent by the emperor, and the result was also approved by the emperor, if it is said that it was false at that time, and there are discrepancies in the test, then ......
Everyone pursed their lips and said no more.
The emperor's gaze slid over everyone's body heavily, like a knife, cutting skin and scraping bones, and everyone's breath couldn't help but stagnate slightly with the ups and downs of his gaze.
His gaze finally fell on Leng Yixiu's body.
"Xiu'er, what do you say?" The Emperor's voice came from afar, like the wind blowing from the top of a snowy mountain, cold and cold.
Leng Yixiu sneered in his heart, he walked out of the queue, came to the middle of the hall, knelt down in front of Sun Chengqiang, his voice was loud, like a pearl falling crisply, "Back to my father, my son thinks that any possibility cannot be let go, since my father has issued an order just now, then arrange for someone to open the coffin, if it is...... Miss Lan really didn't die, and the minister there was willing to accept the crime of dereliction of duty and misinvestigation, and he would be really happy for me Dazhao, because the day after tomorrow, Miss Lan can still go into battle and win glory for the country. ”
He said it frankly, and everyone couldn't help but be slightly stunned, everyone understood what the significance of the emperor's order to open the coffin for an autopsy was to represent the suspicion of King Ning's previous funeral, and the emperor's reconsideration of him, and now, not only did he not defend himself, but even said so!
The people of Leng Yiwei's faction are secretly happy in their hearts, King Ning is cold and strong, and he can't be excited, and now the emperor says that he wants to open the coffin, he can't stand this kind of distrust, and he wants to use this to show his innocence.
And the people of the Leng Yixiu faction pinched a cold sweat in their hearts, although they didn't believe that King Ning would be so imprudent, but Sun Chengqiang kept saying that he didn't bully the king, he really saw Lan Shuyu, there must be something strange in this, and before he figured it out, he dared to agree to open the coffin......
Only Leng Yixiu understood in his heart that the emperor's determination to open the coffin had been decided, and he was not in the mood to care about any big competition at this time, what he cared about most was whether Lan Shuyu was dead or alive.
If Lan Shuyu hadn't died...... Then, he could quickly think of what her fake death at the beginning represented, and what she was evading from, the emperor's selfishness, he knew it, and Leng Yixiu also knew it.
Therefore, the emperor must figure out this matter.
Instead of confessing himself, it is better to let him investigate frankly, Leng Yixiu's mind has already been decided.
"Very good," after a long time, the emperor's voice came from above, the beaded curtain on his forehead blocked his flickering gaze, and the brilliance was fierce, and he only felt a sharp sweep, "Then, as I just said, open the coffin." ”
"Yes." Leng Yixiu bowed his hand.
"Your Majesty," Prime Minister Wang Cheng said, "This matter is very important, I don't know who to send to handle this?" ”
"What do you think?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.
"The minister thinks that for the sake of fairness, we should find someone who has nothing to do with this matter, so as to ensure fairness and justice."
"That's reasonable, I don't know if there is a suitable candidate?"
"The minister thinks that although Boss Liang has withdrawn from the court, he still has a patriotic heart and still cares about Dabi's affairs, Lan Shuyu was also an important player in Dabi before, and he won't shirk if he thinks about it."
"It's okay, then I will make an order and let Master Liang preside over this matter."
Leng Yixiu lowered his eyes slightly, a smile flashed in his eyes, and Lord Liang's attention to this matter was indeed very high.
The officials went down to the court, Prime Minister Wang Cheng and Leng Yixiu glanced at each other, and left separately without saying a word, Sun Chengqiang walked behind, his steps were a little heavy, he hung his head, looked at the tips of his shoes, and suddenly felt that he couldn't see the road under his feet clearly, and the dark lines on the black satin boots made him a little dizzy.
Caught off guard, he hurriedly raised his head, only to find that he had bumped into a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle.
