Chapter XXXVII

"Is Your Highness indifferent to any of this? Just want to end this life in peace? ”

Hearing these words, King Rui only felt that his throat suddenly tightened, his heartbeat seemed to pause, and a thousand thoughts poured into his heart. How could he be indifferent? Just now on Fengshan, he asked Wei Ming those words with confidence, and now he asked himself, can he stand by and watch with peace of mind? Those loud and bold words, is he really willing to go to waste?

Liang Yinhuan lowered his head and was silent for a while, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes flashed with determination. "What are you going to do?"

The woman played with the hem of her skirt for a long time, and the corners of her mouth curled even more. "This matter is not in a hurry, His Highness has just moved into the old mansion, and there must be a lot of things to do. However, today's rescue of Lord Wei by His Highness is a good start. ”

"You want me to win over Wei Ming? This person is upright, and he is a stubborn temper who would rather bend than bend, I'm afraid it's not so easy to envelop. King Rui frowned and pondered.

The woman laughed heartlessly, and said nonchalantly: "How can something that is not difficult show the vast power of my Lingshan Gang?" Wei Ming, we will send someone to infiltrate slowly, His Royal Highness does not need to be burdened, he will be treated as he should be, too deliberately, it will make the old man suspicious. ”

"Good! Since we want to cooperate, then the king will first say the ugly things first, and this king has also said this to Qiu Feng. Rui Wang Zhengse said, "No matter what the reason, I will not do anything that hurts heaven and reason, and harms people's lives." Although the atmosphere in the court is corrupt, there is no shortage of loyal and good ministers like Wei Ming, and this king will not use them to deceive these people. It's like today's Maple Mountain!"

The woman still looked calm, and said indifferently: "Today's incident is deliberately hidden from His Highness, His Highness did not know in advance, and the rescue was out of his own heart, not His Highness's deception of Lord Wei." ”

Liang Yinhuan's expression froze, and there was a resoluteness in his tone that could not help but refute. This is the second rule that this king will make with you. In the future, if you have any action, you must prophetically meet this king, and you are never allowed to cut it first and then play, I am not a puppet at the mercy of others! ”

"What His Highness said today, the people should remember it." The woman smiled calmly and said respectfully.

Liang Yinhuan loosened his thin lips and promised: "If I can really occupy a place in the court, and you can keep your duty in the future, then the king will definitely protect your Lingshan Gang." ”

The woman filled her glass again and drank it all in one gulp to show her sincerity. "Good! The agreement between you and me today will not be broken in the future! ”

"It's a deal." King Rui raised the wine glass to his lips, and suddenly paused, and a dark light flashed in his eyes. "There is another thing, this matter is not in the agreement between you and me today, it's just... It's just that this king wants you to do you a favor. ”

Seeing that the other party suddenly swallowed, the woman replied cheerfully: "Why should Your Highness be so polite, it is also a blessing for us to be able to help Your Highness." Your Highness wants us to kill Huo Pei'an? ”

King Rui shook his head, "No, that treacherous person will cover the sky with one hand, and he will definitely suffer the consequences in the future." What's more, the law of the king of Tianli still exists, even if he wants to be punished, it should be corrected by the emperor and the criminal department of Dali Temple, how can there be a reason to use lynching. If so, is there a difference between this king and the adulterer? ”

The woman smiled and said, "Could it be Your Highness's private matter?" ”

King Rui's eyelashes flickered, as if he had mustered up enough courage, Fang said, "Your Lingshan Gang has all over the world, and even the secret case of the Ministry of War has been investigated by you, so this king wants to use your power to find out the case of the former Prime Minister Yun Xu's rebellion." ”

The woman was slightly shocked, and hurriedly lowered her head, and asked softly, "This is an old case from the early years." This case has already been closed, why does His Highness want to review it? ”

"This matter is another important reason why I returned to the court, if I don't find out this matter, it will be meaningless for me to do this." Liang Yinhuan stared at a slight distraction.

The woman only felt a sour feeling welling up on the tip of her nose, and she forcibly restrained herself, pretending to be unfazed and asked, "Why does Your Highness care so much about the old case from seven years ago?" You must know that His Royal Highness was affected by this incident back then, and finally fell here. If the old case is reopened, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to His Highness. ”

King Rui glanced at the woman sharply, and asked, "Do you have to weigh the pros and cons of everything?" Can't it be for the sake of justice, for the sake of the truth? ”

The woman sneered: "Justice? The truth? Why is His Highness so sure that it is an unjust case? After all, Yun Xu personally admitted that he had rebelled against the army, and he believed that His Highness had also read the blood letter. Moreover, the first emperor even suspected that His Royal Highness and Yun Xu conspired together to deceive the monarch, and almost investigated His Highness together. Fortunately, that Yunxu still has a little conscience, after all, people are dying, and their words are good, and admitting that this matter is his own work has nothing to do with His Highness. Although His Royal Highness is upright, it is a pity that the first emperor doubted His Highness because of this matter, and in the end, the position of the crown prince who should have been in his hands could only be handed over. His Royal Highness was miserable by that Yun Xu, why did he have to overturn the case for a dead man? ”

King Rui's expression was stunned, and he said strangely: "You have inquired about this matter clearly. ”

"This incident was a sensation back then, and it was difficult not to know." A moment of panic flashed on the woman's face, but fortunately, the room was dim, so Liang Yinhuan didn't notice anything unusual.

"The king has indeed seen the bloody letter. But... Yun Xiang is the most frank and benevolent person this king has ever seen, and he will never do such a rebellious thing. What's more, the Yun family is loyal and good, and its son Yun Duchen is the best friend of this king when he was a child, and his daughter Yun Changyan..." ”

The woman got up slowly and stood with her back to King Rui for a long time. It looks like contemplation, but in fact, it is hidden in the dark and wipes the crystal from the corners of the eyes without a trace.

Seeing this, Liang Yinhuan just wanted to say something more, but at this moment, Qiu Feng, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interjected. "Your Highness, rest assured, my Lingshan Gang will do its best to handle this matter. However, after all, there have been so many years in this case, and presumably the human and physical evidence of that year is no longer there, and it may take some time to investigate. ”

King Rui stood up and said, "I understand, then I will have to work for you." ”

Qiu Feng returned the salute and said, "Your Highness is polite. ”

After speaking, Qiu Feng took King Rui out of the dark room. Before leaving, King Rui turned his head to stare at the woman in the room for a moment, and always felt a strange accumulation in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out all of a sudden, and finally had to give up.

After Liang Yinhuan left, Qiu Feng returned to the dark room again. I saw the woman sitting quietly on the ground, as if she had condensed into a statue, and only the tears on her face showed a trace of popularity. The woman's soft voice was like silk. "Gang Master Qiu, I'm sorry."
