"It's not that I don't believe it." His eyes were a little misty, "I just don't need to believe it." ”

Hearing this, he smiled slightly and nodded, no longer speaking.

On the battlefield of men, it is enough for her to have a heart.

The next morning, King Huai woke up the people who were still asleep early. Diexi was full of displeasure, squinted at King Huai, who was already dressed, and asked suspiciously, "Is the ninth master going back?" ”

King Huai nodded, stretched out his hand to comb her messy hair, and expressed his deep affection, "Xi'er, I have wronged you in the end of this year, and I will come back soon." ”

Diexi shook his head slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry, it's important." ”

There was still a trace of tiredness on her face, but it became a smile in the eyes of King Huai. Pulling her into his arms again, he said with a heavy nostalgia in his voice: "Xi'er, call my name." ”

Diexi's little hand was on his back and patted it gently, and his voice was soft and glutinous, "Han." ”

King Huai had some feelings, and he wanted to go out of this peach blossom paradise, thinking about it, he only felt reluctant, so he hugged her for a long time before he was willing to leave.

It's just that he didn't know that the Jingshi not far away had been covered by dark clouds, and the situation had already changed.

At the end of the year, the Daning Dynasty was immersed in a jubilant atmosphere, not to mention the Beijing Division, even in the tense battle situation in the far south, everyone took time to eat a steaming Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

It's just that some people in the army have long been puzzled, and the Anzhi army is pressing the border, why General Xuanwu, who is stationed in the south, has not been able to lead the army for a long time. The army was most afraid of people's instability, and General Xie's 800-mile urgent petition was submitted to the imperial court, which set off waves in the court.

Before the first month of the new year, the drum in front of the Shuntian Mansion was beaten, and the people on duty in the mansion were still lazy and didn't want to pay attention to it, and the hall that had been waiting for a long time to rise was also lifeless.

But it was not even two days before the grievances shouted by such a small grass people had been sent to the Holy Lord. Emperor Yongjia looked at the folds presented in his hand, although he couldn't see much turmoil on his face, but Zhang Ying, the secretary of the criminal department standing in front of him, had already clenched a lot of cold sweat in his palm.

It is also strange to say, it has been more than two months since Princess Rui died in an accident, and no one in Beijing knows how sad King Rui was when he helped the coffin out of the funeral.

But when she died, the extremely sad King Rui was not good everywhere. Not to mention how much he received in front of the prime minister, even the emperor did not get a word of comfort here, and he was not allowed to have any slackness in the affairs of the court, and the ministers who did not have good relations with King Rui were also a little unhappy.

During that time, King Rui's face in the court was also not good, and he couldn't tell how much affection he was forbearing, but he felt that the whole person seemed to be extremely suppressed, and it was dull.

In those days, Cao Zhen went in and out of the emperor's heart palace more and more frequently, and every time he went in and out, King Rui had to be reproached in front of the emperor. Everyone in the court vaguely felt that there seemed to be some dislike between Cao Zhen and King Rui, but on such a day, shouldn't Lord Cao support King Rui?

He didn't understand, he only knew that the criminal army was not effective in the matter of Shenwei, and said that he had found out something from the Qingyi guard, but he wanted to ask, and he was immediately pushed back by the Qingyi guard.

The court situation is like this, whoever has merit has the right to speak, the criminal army is not in a good position, and it is already a great reward for the emperor not to give a good face, where do you dare to care about anything.

It is said that the light guards are only loyal to the imperial power and never participate in party struggles, so they are proud to stand at the head of the twenty-six personal guards, but those private interactions between Cao Zhen and King Rui can be hidden from anyone's eyes.

It's just that the situation is changing rapidly, and only two months have passed, and there is suddenly no movement on the side of the light guard, saying that King Rui is pressing and not allowing him to act, but this set of rhetoric makes Zhang Shangshu extremely disdainful. Qingyiwei has always been resolute in doing things, where would he really not act because King Rui was not allowed to say a word.

But things are so strange, Qingyiwei really didn't do anything this time, rumors spread in the court, saying that Cao Zhen was loyal to the imperial power, and he had already surrendered to King Rui in private, and this time he let it go, just to show King Rui.

Saying that, the rumors are really interesting, and now Daning is still full of lights and festive, but such an ugly thing has been poked out.

Originally, I thought that the grass man was just talking nonsense, saying that he was a widow who died and his daughter was in a sad time, but someone from the Rui Wang's mansion wanted to buy her daughter's body, but the good settlement had not yet arrived, so he had to beat the drum of grievances to state his grievances.

Whenever the matter involves the inner workings of the imperial family, the emperor is categorically unwilling to make it public. The officials of Shuntian Mansion knew each other, and when they heard that they were coming for King Rui, they immediately gave it to Fu Yin, and Shuntian Mansion Yin was also a Beijing official of the third grade, and as soon as he took over and turned his head, he came to the Criminal Department.

Zhang Ying looked at the statement, and couldn't help but be surprised, the body looked like she was twenty or thirty years old, and Princess Kerui was obviously only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, so it was better to start the emperor as soon as possible.

The emperor looked at Zhang Ying in front of him, and he had already guessed the general idea of the matter in his heart. King Rui, King Rui, at that time, the plan of fake death was already dangerous, and he only thought that this child would be useless in the future, so he didn't want to delve into it, but look, there are many people in the court who want to hold on.

Cao Zhen had already come to him and secretly mentioned it a few times, saying that the light clothes guard had made some gains, but he was stopped by King Rui. But every time he found Feng Xiuyun, he was righteous, saying that he was in control.

The emperor sighed secretly in his heart and said to Zhang Ying: "Have you carefully investigated this matter?" ”

"Back to the emperor." Zhang Ying raised his hand and waved his hand in a salute and replied: "The minister has verified that the woman is indeed a widow, and the child died the day before Princess Rui died, and the child is indeed more than twenty years old. The minister asked about the work of the corpse of Princess Rui at that time, and said that although the corpse was burned to charcoal, the muscles and bones were strong, and it was indeed not as weak as Princess Rui. It's just that Princess Rui's status is precious, and King Rui was too sad at the time, so he didn't dare to say a word or two, so he could only hide. ”

While listening, the emperor tapped the table with his fingers intentionally or unintentionally, thought for a while, and suddenly slapped the table with anger, and a layer of coldness appeared on his face, "It's ridiculous that a pariah's false accusations are going to make trouble in front of the emperor, I don't want to hear a word about this matter anymore, go down." ”

When Zhang Ying heard this, he immediately knelt down, buried his head deeply, and shouted: "The minister asks the emperor to forgive the sin, and the minister will do it." ”

Seeing the back of Zhang Ying leaving, Tong Guan, who was next to the emperor, coldly ordered, "Go and find King Rui." ”
