Chapter 249: After Zhongliang

Chu Feifei raised his hand behind his back and said leisurely: "Have Lord Zhang and that Wanrou known each other for a long time?" ”

Zhang Yi hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Chu Feifei smiled slightly, and said, "That cousin Pearl of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not your cousin?" ”

Zhang Yi looked suspicious and nodded again.

The corners of Chu Fei's mouth curled, and his bright and moist eyes glanced at the curtain at the corner of the hall, and said slowly: "Have you talked secretly with Wanrou today?" ”

Zhang Yi glared at Chu Feifei, excited, and whining in his mouth, but he didn't nod or shake his head.

Chu Feifei sighed: "Lord Zhang, as an official of the imperial history, you should take loyalty as your clothes and letters, do you really want to be a palace maid and throw away the foundation of your original speech?" ”

Zhang Yi was so anxious that his eyes rolled, his face flushed, and he shook his head and nodded.

Chu Feifei deliberately said: "Lord Zhang, do you agree with my words or not?" Feifei hadn't read a book for a few days, but he also listened to what the market woman on the street said. Master Zhang, are you willing to be a villain? ”

Zhang Yi shook his head desperately.

The corners of Chu Fei's mouth curled, and finally asked: "Lord Zhang, the palace maid Wanrou is going to deal with me today, but you already know about it?" ”

Zhang Yi glared at Chu Feifei with red eyes, and finally nodded.

Chu Feifei turned around and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you have also heard it, this imperial history Zhang Yi and the palace maid Wanrou have known each other for a long time, and what the palace maid Wanrou did today, then the imperial history Zhang Yi has long known, and today's events were originally planned by them to deal with me." Now the truth is revealed. ”

The emperor hesitated for a moment, this conclusion was made a little quickly, but this was not the time to be serious with this girl, and the emperor was about to nod.

But Xu Shijian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, stood up at this time: "Boss Shao said that the truth was revealed, but it was too early. The old man is in charge of the criminal department, so he can't ignore it. Boss Shao said that this Zhang Yi and Wanrou plotted against you, is there any evidence? ”

Chu Feifei smiled slightly: "My girl who eavesdropped on the corner is a witness." ”

Xu Shijian stroked his long hair: "Okay, if there is a witness, can there be a motive?" Those two are so dignified, why did they frame Boss Shao? And also use such a tragic means as hitting the pillar? ”

That's right, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are also full of question marks at this time. Shao Feifei asked a question just now. It seems that every sentence refers to Zhang Yi and Wanrou conspiring, and finally quickly came to a conclusion. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were also led by Chu Feifei's fast pace for a while, and they didn't even have time to stop and think. At this moment, Xu Shijian stood up and mentioned it, and everyone came back to their senses, yes, even if the conspiracy between the two was true. But how did a palace maid in the deep palace and a royal historian form a mortal enmity with Shao Fei. And you want to frame him with your life?

Chu Feifei sighed: "This matter, in fact, Feifei is also confused, but speaking of it, it is inseparable from Miss Pearl of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Then. Standing in the forefront of civil officials, Xia Xiangguo, who had been silent, had to speak: "What Boss Shao said is, the pearl who lives in the courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion outside my city? ”

Chu Feifei nodded: "Not bad." Precisely. ”

Xia Xiangguo frowned and said, "That pearl made a mistake and was punished by the prime minister to think about it in another courtyard." Usually you can't even see outsiders, so how can you have anything to do with it? ”

Chu Feifei smiled lightly: "How does Miss Pearl Table pass the news to the outside world, I think as long as Xiang Ye is willing to check, he will definitely find out, Xiang Ye has raised Miss Pearl Table for more than ten years, I'm afraid I don't know that this Miss Pearl Table also has a cousin in Tiandu City, right?" ”

Xia Xiangguo shook his head slowly, when Zhang Qingshan and Vice General Zhang fought a bloody battle outside the city, the rebels tied up his family and forced him to surrender, Zhang Qingshan did not fight to the death from the blood, and the old and young of the mansion also returned to heaven together, only a young girl, because she went to play at the neighbor's house, escaped a catastrophe.

Xia Guotao managed to find the young girl afterwards and took her back to the house to raise her, which can be regarded as comforting the soul of the martyrs in the sky.

As for the cousin, Zhang Qingshan had a younger sister at that time, who was married to Wang Qingyan, the imperial historian at that time. The rebels attacked the main hall, the first emperor and the first queen both committed suicide, and Wang Qingyan was the first to hit the pillar and die and die, and he was also a loyal and loyal minister. Zhang Qingshan, who got the news afterwards, sent his sister out of the city in advance in order to prevent the rebels from retaliating, but he didn't have time to settle his family, which was taken by the rebels, causing the tragedy of the Zhang family's loyalty.

Xia Xiangguo looked at Zhang Yi, who was kneeling in the main hall in a blood-red imperial official uniform. Although he describes a wolf at this moment, his fierce bearing really has a bit of Wang Yushi's demeanor.

Could it be that this Zhang Yi turned out to be the widow of Wang Qingyan and Wang Yushi?

When Xia Guotao thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little agitated, and looked at Zhang Yi and didn't speak.

Chu Feifei naturally didn't know the reason for this, and thought that Xia Xiangguo, the old fox, was thinking about something, and he was also vigilant in his heart and waited for the call.

At this time, the emperor above spoke: "Miss Pearl Table of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the little girl adopted by Xia Xiangguo at the beginning?" ”

Xia Xiangguo was slightly shocked in his heart, the emperor actually knew about pearls? And also know that it was adopted?

Without waiting for Xiangguo to answer, the emperor continued: "If I remember correctly, then the pearl seems to be the daughter of Zhang Qingshan."

As soon as these words came out, most of the old ministers in the court changed color. Zhang Qingshan, this is a famous general of the previous dynasty, and he died extremely tragically in the end. Zhang Qingshan was in the hearts of the old ministers of the former dynasty, and he was a first-class loyal minister. At this time, I heard that Zhang Qingshan and a daughter were adopted by Xiangguo, and I felt a little comforted, but this matter was known to the emperor again, I am afraid that the pearl will not escape today.

Who doesn't know that the most taboo thing for the emperor is the remnants of the previous dynasty, not to mention the generals who were the first to defeat the rebels, destroy countless rebels, and would rather die than surrender.

There are also young people in this court, who are newly promoted by the emperor, although they have not seen Zhang Qingshan, but they have also heard of the loyal general, and they are also a little embarrassed at this time.

Xia Xiangguo's heart sank, it turned out that the emperor had been secretly investigating him for a long time, since he knew about the pearl, then the jade bead, did the emperor already know? Xia Xiangguo had thousands of thoughts in his heart in an instant, but he didn't show it on the surface, he just walked quickly to the hall and knelt down: "Please forgive the emperor, the emperor knows it, it's not that the old minister intends to hide it."

The emperor waved his hand lightly and said: "Xia Xiangguo doesn't need to ask for guilt, Zhang Qingshan is a loyal minister of the previous dynasty, and I also admire it, but it's a pity that such a loyal minister and good general can't be used by our dynasty." Since it is the blood of loyal ministers, adopt it, and there is no need to ask for guilt. ”

The emperor looked at Zhang Yi at this time and said: "Since Zhang Pearl is Zhang Qingshan's daughter, then Zhang Yi and Zhang Pearl are cousins, this Zhang Yi is afraid of his mother's surname, right?" "To be continued
