Hua Tian returned to the Zhenguo Mansion and happened to meet Zhong Liche, who was also returning home.

"The sage announced to the world that this year's Spring and Autumn Birthday will be held and the princes from all walks of life will be ordered to enter Beijing." Zhong Li Che told Hua Tian that he had gotten the news from the palace.

Hua Tian's face suddenly became solemn, "Is it because of King Zhao?" ”

King Zhao has been in the fief for many years, and now it is rumored that Concubine Li and he are aspiring to the throne, and the sage must suspect that he is far away in the fief to support his own army. This time, it is certainly not easy to order the princes to go to Beijing to celebrate their birthdays.

Zhong Liche nodded, and then laughed again, "Because of this, I don't have to go to the northwest this year." ”

Hua Tian was curious, "Shouldn't you go to the northwest and guard the barracks?" ”

There are not many generals in the hands of the saint, leaving Zhong Liche in the capital, who can help guard the northwest?

"Back then, I angrily beheaded two generals, and the saint pushed a person up, and I pushed a person up, and I could hold it down." Zhongli Toru laughed.

I see, Hua Tian nodded, and was a little worried that Zhong Liche's role would become smaller, and the saint would have bad intentions.

"The people and horses stationed outside the capital are now under my command, and you can walk sideways in this capital in the future." Zhongli saw Hua Tian's brows frowning slightly, so he joked with her.

Hua Tian laughed when he heard this, "Okay, I'll wait to go sideways, whoever provokes me, I'll tell him that my husband is General Zhongli, and if he has the courage to let the horse come." ”

The two talked and laughed all the way, returned to the room and changed clothes, then ordered Laiyi to make tea and sit in the study and talk.

"I got news from the palace that the body in the tomb outside the city is really not Concubine Li's. The real corpse of Concubine Li was whipped by an old eunuch for a long time. Zhong Li Che whispered the secret he had heard.

Hua Tian's face changed. Is it too vicious to whip a corpse?

"Was it a saint's order?" Hua Tian asked in a low voice.

Zhong Li Che shook his head, "I'm not sure, I just know that it must be someone from the palace." It's too secretive, and I don't dare to investigate too deeply. ”

If it weren't for the deep hatred, he would definitely not have whipped the corpse after death. Hua Tian thought about it, although Concubine Li deceived the old sage, it was not enough to have a deep hatred.

In the end, perhaps, it should be the queen. The harem competes for favor, and it is normal for the queen to hate any concubine. In addition, Concubine Li counterattacked and killed the queen and a palace maid before she died. It also scared the queen enough. It makes sense that the queen wants to take revenge.

However, these are just speculations, and Hua Tian is not sure that it is the queen.

She thought for a moment and looked at Zhong Li Che. "Did my eldest brother and second brother tell the saint about Luofeng?"

Luo Feng is the only surviving heir of the eldest princess. It can be big or small. According to the old sage's guilt towards the eldest princess now, after finding Luofeng, there will definitely be more compensation.

But now Luofeng has married into the Hua family. It is highly likely that the saint thinks too much. Then a chance may eventually turn into a killing machine.

"It's already been said, 1510, when will I know Luofeng's identity clearly." Zhong Li Che said.

Hua Tian was surprised, "The saint left you there to listen together?" ”

After speaking, his face became solemn, and he looked at Zhong Liche motionlessly.

Zhong Li Che nodded, his face was also a little solemn, but soon he laughed again,

"It's such a coincidence, it's normal for him to be suspicious, and we really have a clear conscience in this matter, but we are not afraid of him. And Luo Feng was exiled in Shanyang Town, Qingzhou, and was accepted as a handmaid by you, and there are traces to follow, he found it out, and our suspicion is gone. ”

Hua Tian knew that these words were very much to comfort himself, so he smiled and didn't say anything more.

I'm afraid that Zhong Liche won't have to go to the northwest this year, and it's also because of the old sage's suspicions. The two new generals, although they are also capable people, are they better than Zhong Liche, who has been guarding for many years?

It's just that now the old sage is suspicious and suspicious of Zhong Liche, so he took the risk of keeping Zhong Liche in the capital and letting other generals guard the northwest.

It was only when Concubine Li's incident happened that the old saint had many suspicions.

Concubine Li's reputation was so good back then, she had nothing else to do, she devoted herself to the heart of the old sage, did not compete for favor, did not fight for status, and was born an elegant camellia.

But what happened in the end? has become a man-eating flower that fights for everything, or a man-eating flower that plays with the world's supreme old saint in the palm of his hand.

No wonder the old sage's suspicions suddenly became bigger, but I am afraid that he is even doubting now that the matter of Concubine Li will be jointly promoted by the Hua family and the Zhenguo Mansion.

Moreover, Hua Tian thought of the queen, when Concubine Li died, she provoked the queen. Maybe the queen also told the old sage what Concubine Li said, which led to the old sage's unprecedented distrust of the Hua family and Zhong Li.

"Rest assured, even if the saint is suspicious, he will not do anything to us. What's more, there is no more faithful person in the world than us, he doubted it for a few days, and after figuring it out, everything was fine. Zhong Liche comforted Hua Tian by the side.

Hua Tian nodded, they had no choice but to wait for the old sage to figure it out for himself.

"But we still have to be careful at all times, and don't let people take advantage of it and slander us in front of the saints." She said with a frown.

Zhong Liche said with a smile, "Don't worry, after the incident with Concubine Li, Li Shangshu's Mansion was suppressed, and now the officialdom is in chaos." The Taishi Mansion and the Right Prime Minister's Mansion made a big mistake before, and it was difficult to protect themselves, and they didn't have the strength to do anything. As for Prime Minister Lin, he is dedicated to assisting the crown prince, and he will definitely not do anything to us. ”

Hua Tian thought about it, the rest of the people were powerless, and she also believed in Prime Minister Lin's personality. And Prime Minister Lin Cheng is Hua Heng and Hua Ke's mentor when they enter the officialdom, and he will definitely not kill them all. Besides, Prime Minister Lin's next generation is withering, maybe he will ask the Hua family more, and he will definitely not break this affection.

Thinking of this, she swept away the gloom on her face and said of Old Man Du, "He can't live with Mother Lan, but he has also waited for fifty years, and I don't know if I want to help him with this......"

Zhong Li Che was about to say something, when he suddenly stood up and shouted, "Come out—"

Hua Tian's face changed suddenly, and she stood up and looked around.

When Laiyi Fennel and the others heard Zhong Liche's shouting, they all quickly walked over and stayed outside the house with Hua Tian and Zhong Liche.

A figure flashed, and a middle-aged scribe appeared in the garden. Looking in from the window, he said slowly, "General Zhenguo is really profound, I noticed it when I just came in." ”

Hua Tian looked at it and was stunned.

This person turned out to be Concubine Li's younger brother, Li Xianzhe of Li Shangshu's Mansion. That year, he was admitted to the top of the Yang Taishi faction and became the champion, and everyone praised him.

However, it was also this person, when Hua Tian's three siblings were young. sent someone to Shanyang Town to let Shen Jinyu raise and abolish Hua Tian's three brothers and sisters. Later, the waste maintenance plan failed. Directly ask for a kill.

Later, Hua Tian's three brothers and sisters entered Beijing, and this person was no different, a gentle and elegant gentleman.

The saint founded the Hallym Temple. Lee Hyun-chul followed him into the Hanlin Temple. Become a Hanlin. is a gentleman in many people's mouths. Even Hua Heng and Hua Ke, who have hatred, are full of praise for their people.

"It turned out to be Li Hanlin. I don't know what happened to sneak in? Zhongli Cheol looked at Li Xianzhe, but there was murderous aura in his eyes.

This person, when Hua Tian was young, tried to erase her. If he succeeded, he would not have met Hua Tian at all.

Li Xianzhe didn't seem to see Zhong Liche's murderous gaze, he glanced at the maids around him, "I also ask General Zhenguo to take a step to speak." ”

Zhong Li Che glanced at Hua Tian, and then with a wave of his hand, he sent Yi and Fennel and the others away, and let Li Xianzhe in.

After Li Xianzhe came in, he looked at Hua Tian, "I gave Miss Hua Liu a killing order back then, and I never had a chance to apologize, but now I finally waited for the opportunity." After speaking, he earnestly bowed to Hua Tian and apologized.

Hua Tian was stunned, she couldn't have imagined that Li Xianzhe would be so simple, she looked at Li Xianzhe and wanted to ask something.

"I'm poisoned now, and my life is short, so I won't talk nonsense." Li Xianzhe's breathing became rapid, and his lips were slightly purple.

Hua Tian and Zhong Li Che were taken aback, looked at Li Xianzhe's appearance, and saw that he was indeed much more decadent in an instant.

Li Xianzhe saw the surprise on Hua Tian and Zhong Li's faces, and smiled bitterly, "Someone wanted to kill me and hide the events of the year, but I was unwilling, so I came to the door." ”

"What are you going to tell us?" Hua Tian held Zhong Liche's hand and asked Li Xianzhe.

Li Xianzhe clenched his fists, "It was my sister Concubine Li who gave me an order to kill you back then." But as far as I know, my sister is just being provoked, and the person who provoked her is the concubine. ”

Hua Tian's heart was shocked, and what Old Man Du said in his mouth was also Concubine Shu.

But suddenly adopted two princes, and all of them framed the eldest princess's mansion were Concubine Li. The person who has lived a lifetime longer and has seen the development of the future tense is also Concubine Li. How could it be a concubine who provoked it?

"I don't believe it." Hua Tian said categorically.

"It's true, at this moment, why should I lie to you? If no one provoked it, how could my sister do so much? If she was really vicious, how could she pretend to be so many years? Li Xianzhe saw that Hua Tian didn't believe it, and he was a little anxious.

Hua Tian shook his head, "If you want to pretend, you can pretend for a lifetime, what is it in just a few decades?" ”

When she said this, she looked at Zhong Liche with some hesitation.

Zhong Liche didn't know why Hua Tian suddenly looked at herself, guessing that she might be suspicious and indecided, so he smiled back at her, saying that he was always on her side.

"My sister is not such a person, she, she ......" Li Xianzhe seemed to be embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and said, "The order I got back then was to kill your three brothers and sisters, but I couldn't bear it, so I only let your aunt raise you...... Why should I lie to you? ”

Hua Tian sneered, your plan is to raise us, in your last life, you did succeed. We were raised, and it didn't fit the power of Shen Jinyu's move, and it wasn't a tragic death?

Seeing Hua Tian's sneer, Li Xianzhe frowned, as if he was a little embarrassed.

He turned to Zhong Liche, "Doesn't General Zhenguo believe me either?" ”

"Does it matter if we believe you or not?" Zhong Li Che asked.

Hua Tian was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that Li Xianzhe suddenly came and told them these things, no matter how she looked at it, it didn't look like she was just to tell them about it.

He must have other plans.

Li Xianzhe was stunned for a moment, with a little misery on his face, "I came here to exchange this news in the hope that General Zhenguo can respond to my matter." ”

Zhong Li Che and Hua Tian looked at him and did not speak.

Li Xianzhe breathed rapidly, as if the poison on his body was attacking, he said quickly, "I know that the tomb outside the city is not my sister Concubine Li, I am here today just to beg General Zhenguo to help me recapture my sister's body so that she can be buried." ”

She was unfortunate when she was young, was divorced, and later entered the palace, had no children for life, and dedicated everything for the Li family. I don't want her to die in a miserable situation. She has not had a good life in this life, and I hope that at least, she will be buried after her death and receive some incense from the Li family. ”

Lee Hyun-chul said it sadly and desolately.

However, Hua Tian remembered that in that life, Hua Ke died tragically as a teenager and never had a chance to grow up. Hua Heng was beaten to death, she carried Hua Tian's body outside the city, dug a pit with her bare hands, and buried Hua Heng in the cold rain. After that, she entered Washington alone, set fire to it, and died with Shen Jinyu.

She still remembers how cold the rain fell on her body and how painful the fire burned on her body.

"If she is not a rebel and thief, she can enter the imperial mausoleum, and she will enjoy inexhaustible blessings after death." Hua Tian said coldly.

Concubine Li is miserable, but she is concerned about Li Xianzhe's younger brother. What about her last life? She and her two brothers all died tragically, who cares? After his death, he was instructed and slandered by the fathers and elders of Shanyang Town, and the entire Hua family was annihilated.

"She was just being used, and it was Concubine Shu who took advantage of her. Nothing was her intention......" Li Xianzhe listened to Hua Tian's words and said hurriedly.

Hua Tian was unmoved, no matter what, the tragedy was caused by Concubine Li.

"Back then, I didn't let people kill you immediately, but I had compassion. Can't Miss Hua Liu look at my idea of compassion and help me? Li Xianzhe's tone was almost pleading.

He never begged, and he never spoke to anyone in such a low voice.

But now for the sake of his sister, who will be whipped after death, he has to beg for someone and has to keep his voice down.

"How did you know that Concubine Li's body was humiliated?" Zhong Li Che asked.

Li Xianzhe's face flashed with murderous aura, "The palace maid in the palace told me that my sister was deceived by the concubine, but she was not a fool, and she also put nails in the palace of the concubine. ”

Zhong Li Che nodded and did not speak again.

If Hua Tian has no opinion, he doesn't mind helping a gang and then getting more secrets out of Li Xianzhe. As the heir of Li Shangshufu, he must know a lot.

But Hua Tian had already made it obvious that she would never help Concubine Li, and he didn't plan to go against Hua Tian, so he didn't make any promises.

Li Xianzhe looked at the indifferent two and was extremely disappointed. He pressed the poison down with his inner strength, and despair gradually welled up in his heart.

Between the Hua family and the Zhenguo Mansion, he chose to come to the Zhenguo Mansion. Because there are not only Zhenguo General Zhong Liche here, but also Hua Liuniang. Coming here, if it can be said to be moving, it is the help of the two forces.

But he couldn't have imagined that Hua Liuniang would refuse, and he didn't believe his words at all. (To be continued......)
