Chen Ming is in such a hurry, something really happened. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhao Pingtong is gone.

Qiping Palace

Chen Wang, Chen Ming, and Chen Jin sat with solemn faces.

"As you said, someone has been sent to keep an eye on him, and he shouldn't have a chance to get out of the city." Chen Wang asked.

"Erchen has sent someone to look for him along the road to Xinling. He also quickly informed the post stations and the border guards. Lu Jin also led troops to search in the city. Chen Ming replied.

Zhao Pingtong is just a deputy envoy, but although his position is small, he is Wei Wuyu's cronies. Wang Shengmiao's death in Chen Guo is a big crime, even if it is really a recurrence of the old disease, it is a fact that Lu Yu beat Wang Shengmiao. If Zhao Pingtong returned to Xinling at this time, wouldn't he let him talk nonsense in front of the emperor?!

"He may still be in the high canal, it is better to block the four gates and search from house to house!" Chen Jindao.

King Chen shook his head, "If the city is closed for investigation, disturbing the people is only one of them. Such a rash search for envoys, how should Xinling be explained. And it's not clear if he's in the city. ”

Chen Jindao, "Father! The adults in the south are all pampered, and it is impossible for him to leave alone in such weather, and I am eighty percent sure that he is still in Gaoqu. ”

King Chen looked at Chen Ming.

Chen Ming said, "Brother Jin is right, if it were Zhao Pingtong himself, it would never be possible to leave Gaoqu." ”

Where did Zhao Pingtong go?

Zhao Pingtong has been uneasy since Qiheng left, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Before Qi Heng left, the tables, chairs and benches in the entire hall became empty furnishings, and no one dared to sit down. Fortunately, his injuries have not yet healed, and he can only sleep on his stomach, and it is useless to ask for a chair.

Zhao Pingtong wanted to escape, but he was guarded all day long. That day, Zhao Pingtong heard that Su Ling was going to reply to Xinling, his eyes turned and he had an idea, and wrote a long letter overnight, asking Su Ling to forward it to his family, and cried that he had been away from home for a long time, and he was worried about it. Su Ling didn't take it to heart, but just said that it was a gesture of effort, so he accepted it.

Su Ling's reply to Xinling was naturally all the way. Let's say that Su Ling handed over Zhao Pingtong's so-called family letter to Zhao Pingtong's brother Zhao Pingwei.

Zhao Pingwei opened the letter, and when he read the words in the letter, he thought that Zhao Pingtong really missed such a family. When I saw the middle, I found a line of small letters, 'Give the envelope to Master Wei'. Zhao Pingwei went to look at the envelope again, only to find that the envelope seemed to be thicker than usual, and there were words written on the inside of the envelope. It turned out that this Zhao Pingtong wanted Su Ling to deliver the letter, but he was afraid that he would open it halfway. When Zhao Pingwei saw this, he threw the rest of the letter into the brazier and took the envelope to find Wei Wuyu.

In addition to stating the matter, the letter added fuel to the fire, saying, 'King Chen indulged his son Chen Xiu and Chen Guo's woman Lu Yu beat Wang Yi to death, and played favoritism. His Royal Highness Qiheng actually helped, and designed to deceive me, saying that Lord Wang's death was an attack of an old disease. Xia Guan wrote this letter with a small life, thinking about how to tell the Lord Wang about the wrongful death, and it can be regarded as worthy of the friendship of being an official in the same dynasty as Lord Wang. ’

Wei Wuyu looked funny, how could he not see how true these words were and how false they were. Suddenly thought of a plan, and said in his heart that this bullshit was still useful, so he asked Shen Xun to explain, and then prepared a horse and hurried to the palace.

Wei Wufu entered the Splendid Palace, and when he saw that Yunshang was choosing pearl flowers, he immediately changed his distressed appearance and shouted, "Your nobleman, can you shield the left and right." ”

A few maids looked at Yunshang, and Yunshang nodded in acquiescence.

Yunshang got up and said, "There is no one here, brother doesn't have to be polite." ”

Before Yunshang entered the palace, she recognized Wei Wuyu as her righteous brother, at that time she had no identity at all, and she didn't dare to speak out, and she was able to enter the palace thanks to Wei Wuyu.

Wei Wuyu sighed first and said, "Qiheng is in Chen State, and it can be said that there will be endless troubles in the future. There are also many people inside and outside the government and the opposition who support the former prince Qiheng. Those old ministers are pedantic and bite the eldest son to inherit. He added, "Although the current emperor has appointed His Royal Highness Xin as the crown prince, there are still people in the court who support the queen and Qiheng. ”

When Yunshang heard this, she put down the bead flower, secretly calculated, and said hurriedly, "What should I do?" ”

"Now only by completely abandoning the idea of civil and military officials can we be firm."

Yun Sheng didn't understand for a while, Wei Wuyu put his hand on his neck, and Yun Sheng immediately understood.

Yunshang has won the favor of heaven, but she can't compare to the queen in terms of position, so she is naturally jealous. And those ministers above the court talk about restoring the former crown prince every day, because they feel that Qiheng's mother and son are really a threat. If this hidden danger is not completely eradicated, she will never be able to sleep well. Hearing Wei Wuyu say this, he was even more worried, and he only hated to let Qiheng get to Chen safely, but he couldn't kill him at that time.

After thinking about it again, he became worried, "I was thrown into the water by that Qiheng, and Your Majesty couldn't do it!" ”

"What if there is no Chen Guo?" Wei Wuyu said, "If Chen Guo disappears, the queen and Qiheng will naturally have nothing to rely on." If Qiheng died, the queen would have no hope. As for the solution...... As long as you are willing to do something, there is nothing that cannot be done. ”

"It's easy to say, but how can Chen Guo say that it's gone? Qiheng is in Gaoqu, and it is difficult to kill him. ”

"Noble! Why is it so difficult to do this? Wei Wuyu said again, "The emperor crusaded against the Chen State, and the Chen State was naturally gone." When the time comes, there will be chaos on the battlefield, and the death of a person will be an accident or deliberate, who can say clearly? ”

"How could His Majesty listen to me about the war?"

Wei Wufu said, "Your Majesty dislikes others to disobey and resist the decree the most, is most afraid of the princes committing rebellion, and hates people the most for disrespecting the Son of Heaven." After a pause, he added, "Lu Yan died on Huadao Mountain, others don't know what the reason is, you should know it?" This is Chen Wang's anti-decree. That Chen Guo killed the envoy of the Son of Heaven, this is disrespectful to the Son of Heaven. According to the regulations of our dynasty, although a vassal country can have soldiers, it must not exceed 50,000. The state of Chen is located in the north and is at the junction with Rong, so the first king allowed him 100,000. And now, Na Chen has 200,000 soldiers in the north, and his unsubdued heart is clearly revealed. These are all crimes...... As for the rest, it is all up to the nobles. ”

Yun Sheng was overjoyed when she heard this, and wondered, "What's the matter with this Chen Guo killing the envoy?" I haven't heard of it. ”

Wei Wuyu said, "This report has arrived a few days ago, but the emperor is afraid that he hasn't read it yet." ”

Yunshang was puzzled, "Newspaper? Since Chen Guo dares to report it, there must be rhetorical quibbles in it! ”

Wei Wu said with a smile, "The nobles just go to see the emperor, and I have my own plans for the rest." ”

——

In the past few days, Wei Qiong, the son of the patriotic country, came to the tomb to ask for help, saying that the country was gathering troops on the eastern border of the patriotic country. When the emperor saw this, he refused to send troops. Wei Qiong also knew the world, and brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry to meet the ministers of Xinling, hoping that they could ask for reinforcements for Wei Guo in front of the emperor.

The emperor said, "The Eclipse Kingdom is just a group of uncivilized southern barbarians, and the first emperor allowed him to seal the land and establish a state, and he only made an earl." Defending the country can't even be defeated by them? What are they doing with the land of the king?! ”

Those ministers received Wei Qiong's money and advised in front of the emperor every day, and the emperor was tired of listening to it on this day, and went directly back to the apse when he was going to the court, leaving a group of ministers who didn't know what to do.

Let's say that the emperor quit the court, lay on the couch in a distraught, fell asleep in a trance, and had a dream. In the dream, I don't know why, he was standing alone on the wall of Xinling, and suddenly a black shadow fell from the sky, pecking his blind eyes, and he fell from the city wall.

The emperor woke up suddenly, and saw Yun Sheng holding his hand anxiously, "Your Majesty is having a nightmare?" ”

In this cold winter, I was sweating all over. Seeing Yunsheng, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I dreamed of a black eagle, and I pecked the widow's eyes blind. ”

Yunshang comforted, "It's just a dream." Your Majesty must have been too busy these days. After that, he sat obediently and skillfully, bowing his head and not speaking.

The emperor saw that she frowned and stopped talking, knowing that she had something hidden in her heart, so he naturally asked.

"Your Majesty just had a nightmare, and Yunshang doesn't dare to worry Your Majesty anymore." Yunshang pretended to be sad, covered her heart and said, "My aunt sent me a letter, saying that she misses her son, and asked me to ask Your Majesty when I can let my cousin come back." ”

"I didn't know you had a cousin?"

Yun Sheng sneered, "It's a relative of the distant family." ”

The emperor is beautiful in his arms, how can he disagree, and said with a smile, "What is his name, is he at the border or in prison?" ”

Yun Sheng said angrily, "My cousin is dedicated to the country, how could Your Majesty Shengming let someone who is dedicated to the country go to prison?" His name is Wang Shengluo, and the emperor let him go to Chen State half a year ago. ”

The emperor recalled for a long time, and then suddenly smiled, "It's just for you to smile a lot, no matter how big the matter, I have to send a decree to let him come back tomorrow!" ”

Yunshang was overjoyed, pouted and smiled, rubbed against the emperor's face, jumped away again, and said happily, "Don't delay national events." ”

The emperor laughed, "What is the state matter? I don't know why it's been so long. I'm going to forget. ”

Yun Sheng walked to the table, looked at the thick stack of folds, and rummaged around at will, "Has Chen Guo come over there for so long?" Is there any cousin news? ”

The emperor had a headache when he saw those songs, "It's all messy nonsense, don't look at it." ”

Yunshang flipped over by herself, and after a while, she said happily, "Isn't this it?" As he spoke, he handed it to the emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty will help the concubines and tell me if there is any news of my cousin." ”

The emperor frowned when he saw it, Yunshang pretended not to know, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The emperor naturally saw the news of Wang Shengmiao's death, and his tone softened, "I said that you don't want to be sad." Your cousin can't come back. ”

Yunshang took it and immediately cried. "What crime did my cousin commit?" cried again, "The concubine lost her mother when she was young, and the whole family only loved her aunt. Now that Wang's cousin has died in a foreign country, how can his aunt stand it! Your Majesty will find out the murderer and give my aunt an explanation! ”

The emperor knocked on the square table in a sullen voice, and called out to his attendants for a while, "Go and call Wei Wuyu to me!" “

——

"Why did Wang Shengming die?!"

Wei Wufu pretended to be shocked, "The minister received a secret letter yesterday, and it was also said that the minister Wang Shengluo died in Chen State, but there were some reasons in it. ”

The emperor said, "Show it to me." ”

Wei Wuyu naturally handed over the secret letter, and made a puzzled expression, "This is the envelope of the deputy envoy Zhao Pingtong's family letter, and the little marquis of Tuosu brought it back." I read that this letter said that the daughter of Lu Yan, the general of Chen Guoxunnan, colluded with Chen Gongzi to seriously injure Wang Yan to death, and used His Royal Highness to coerce Zhao Pingtong, so that he did not dare to tell the truth. Zhao Pingtong also said that he was imprisoned by King Chen and could not report it, thinking about the injustice of Wang Yan's death, so he brought this letter in his family letter to tell his subordinates, hoping to give Wang Yan justice. I didn't believe it at first, but I only said that it was slander, and that when he returned, he would be punished for slander. I don't want Wang Shengming to really die. ”

After saying these words, the emperor also finished reading the letter, and immediately put the envelope on the table in anger, and said angrily, "It's really presumptuous!" Although Heng'er doesn't know the severity, he is not a nonsense person. How dare he resentful and slander the prince! ”

"This Zhao Pingtong is really hateful, and he actually pushed the matter on His Highness." His previous words were clever, saying that Qiheng was being 'used', and at this time, the emperor was angry and only pushed the matter on Zhao Pingtong. He added, "I heard that Wang Yi is also a cousin of Yun Meiren's distant family. His Royal Highness was newly deposed as the crown prince, and King Chen saw it...... I don't know, but it has something to do with it? Will King Chen be ...... for the queen?"

Yun Sheng took over, "Your Majesty still remembers the Black Eagle in your dream?" Chen Guo has many eagles, and that black eagle must be Chen Guo. ”

The emperor also understood the meaning of Wei Wu's nonsense, and heard that Yunshang actually said that the black eagle was referring to Chen Guo, and turned his face to scold, "You are also presumptuous!" King Chen has always been cautious, and he is also the eldest brother of the queen, how could he do such a thing. ”

"What did my brother do?"

When the queen got the news, she rushed over, heard that Wei Wuyu was there, and broke in directly without letting people report it, and heard the emperor reprimand Wei Wuyu.

The queen saluted and turned to stare at Wei Wuyu, "What did my brother do?" ”

Wei Wuyu turned to the emperor and bowed his head, "Your Majesty is angry!" What Zhao Pingtong said may not be all true, but now it seems that Wang Yi is dead. If Your Majesty wants to know the truth, you need to send someone to Gaoqu to take a look. If Zhao Pingtong is talking nonsense, he will be severely punished. ”

The queen stared at Yun Sheng again and said, "What do you say is the matter with Chen Guo and Black Eagle?" ”

The Emperor recounted the dream of that day.

The queen said coldly, "Chen Guoduo is not an eagle, but a leopard. Besides, it's just a dream, and it's too far-fetched to be involved with Jiangshan Sheji! ”

The emperor was displeased to hear it, although it was a nightmare, but now that he thought about it, he was still frightened, but he didn't want to refute it.

Yun Sheng choked up and said, "Your Majesty, my cousin died in Chen Guo for no reason, this is absolutely true." ”

The queen said, "It is true that Lord Wang died in Chen State, but I don't know if it is 'for no reason'. I believe in my brother. If Your Majesty wants to know what is going on, you might as well ask Lord Xu to go to Gaoqu to investigate. ”

The emperor thought for a moment, "Then let Xu Changji go to Gaoqu." I'd like to see what happened! ”

Wei Wuyu bowed his head and said, "Lord Xu is loyal, if he goes forward with great fanfare and is moved by someone with a heart, he can't know the truth." ”

The Emperor said, "Then let him go in disguise!" Don't alarm others! ”
