Chapter 52: The Emperor's Black Hand
"Yes...... It is the thing of the eight sons-in-law of the minister. "You Xiao is still afraid of losing face at this time, his head is going to be gone, so naturally it is most important to save his life first," Weichen was worried about the emperor's birthday ceremony, and he wanted the emperor to be happy and relieve the worries of working hard every day on state affairs. The eight daughters of the minister saw it in their eyes, and they were also anxious. Coincidentally, she saw that her husband had such a thing, and she was afraid that her husband would not cut her love, so she hid it from her uncle and sent it to Weichen. Weichen was speechless, the ghost was confused, not only accepted this thing, but also took the valuables without telling his son-in-law, it was really ...... It's really because of a love for the king. He poured beans into a bamboo tube and said everything.
"Which is your eighth aunt?" Xiao Zuo asked.
"One of the two generals of the Shenwu Army, Guo Younian."
Xiao Zuo didn't remember who Guo Younian was for a while, but he quickly remembered. The Shenwu Army is composed of rotating border troops, Guo Younian used to belong to the Huo Family Army, and was Huo Honglian's henchman. However, he was Wen Ningzhi's guarantee to enter the Shenwu Army, which shows that he has made great efforts in the matter of cutting down the grass and eradicating the roots of the Huo Family's army.
Such a person, why does he have that dragon head and dragon body with four chisel poppies? Could it be that this has something to do with Huo Honglian's secret that she refused to reveal until she died? Doesn't that mean that Guo Younian also knows that secret? Well, he deserves to die too!
Xiao's left pupils shrank sharply, and this possibility seemed to be a knife that cut the scar on his heart. If it weren't for that secret, why would he have to die for Red Lotus. And the woman he loves is dead, how can this secret be revealed?
That's right, he let the palace eunuchs in Hong Changzhi's hands release the news and lay poison bait. said that he liked the four chisels of the dragon, but in fact, he just wanted to see if there were any remnants that had not died. But he didn't expect it. There really is!
"You Xiao, are you telling the truth?" Xiao Zuo pondered for a moment and asked.
"What Wei Chen said is true. Don't dare to lie or deceive the emperor. You Xiao kowtowed like garlic, for fear that the emperor would not believe it.
Xiao Zuo's eyes swept down, looking at his important ministers condescendingly, his eyes were so cold that there was no temperature at all, as if he was looking at a person who was going to die. He was suspicious and cautious by nature, and he thought that he could get to this point in the bloody storm because he never took any risk, even if it was well worth the risk. For people or things that threaten him. He is also absolutely the first to strike, strangling the danger in the cradle. He was like this to Red Lotus at the beginning, and he won't change it now.
So......
"You Aiqing, you go home first." Xiao Zuo softened his voice, "However, I have to do a big thing. In order to avoid suspicion, you temporarily closed the Huainan Hou Mansion and don't come out yet. ”
"Minister's order, thank you, Lord Longen." Yu Xiao's obedient bow. but the heart is cold.
That thing is really the root and seedling of trouble, but I am afraid that not only him, but the entire Huainan Hou Mansion will be implicated. The emperor said it nicely, avoid suspicion and close the house? It's obviously house arrest. If he dares not to hear. Or if the yang is disobeyed, there will be no scum left in the run. Just listen to the tone of the emperor, you can know that the monarch and the minister have been for many years. Does he know that the more gentle the emperor is on the surface, the more angry he is in his heart?
But. He didn't dare to plead or discern because he didn't know what was wrong with the birthday gift. What big things is the emperor going to do? At this time, it is wrong to say too much, but it is better to be still and see the situation. In the end, the emperor can't kill him if he says kill him. He is a powerful minister in charge of the naval army, and there must be a reason for killing or degrading. But if he really causes a catastrophe, who will he turn to for help? In the flowery city of Tokyo, there is a lot of information among the powerful, hello, hello, everyone. But when something goes bad, no one can help. He had already seen through this.
And after You Xiao left, Xiao Zuo sank his face. Hong Changzhi stood aside, and he didn't even dare to come out. Because, this is the first time since Huo Honglian's death that the emperor's face has been so ugly.
"Send three groups out." After a while, Xiao Zuo said, "The first batch to stare at the Huainan Hou Mansion, if there is any movement, they will report it immediately." The second group lurked near Guo Younian's house, and they didn't have to show up, they were only surrounded, and they were allowed to enter but not to go out. The third batch ...... No, you go in person and bring Wen Ningzhi to me, I have something for him to do. ”
"The slave obeys." Hong Changzhi hurriedly responded, secretly relieved in his heart.
He didn't want to face the emperor alone at this juncture. This one seems to be benevolent, and he also has the name of benevolence among the people, but in fact...... Tsk, those who go along are prosperous, those who are against them die, and they are still dead either justifiably, quietly, or without doubt. As for Ning Anhou? He does everything that is inconvenient for the emperor to come forward, so let him sit on the wax. Who would have thought? The model of the world's scholars, the moral model among the powerful, is actually the emperor's black hand.
Hong Changzhi sneered in his heart, but he did not delay him to complete the task assigned by the emperor quickly. The reason why those who were sent did not use the holy decree to mobilize, but gave him a secret message, was because it was the emperor's personal guard he was responsible for liaison, and he was more confidant than Yulin Jun and his personal guards, but he was absolutely disgraceful.
In less than an hour, Wen Ningzhi slipped into the palace overnight. And when he listened to the emperor's orders, he couldn't help but be stunned in surprise. He thought that after Honglian's death, there would be no news from there, who would have thought that Guo Younian would die like this?
"Your Majesty, if Guo Younian is an insider, he will naturally not make this thing public." Wen Ningzhi thought of a suspicious point.
He didn't want Guo Younian to have something to do, not because the two had a relationship, but because they did evil together back then, and they were purely grasshoppers on a rope. If Guo Younian falls, he also has a sense of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
"That's because the porcelain of the former Yan court was stolen by Guo Younian's wife and given to her father." Xiao Zuodao seemed to understand Wen Ningzhi's thoughts, and comforted, "Don't worry, I trust you, and I won't suspect you of being a conspirator just because you and Guo Younian have worked together." At the beginning, he was just a knife for you to borrow, and everything had nothing to do with you. You take it upon yourself to interrogate him in an open fire, and everyone knows about the trouble, and you are not afraid. Just be careful not to let him talk around with his mouth open. ”
Whoever is in a position of authority needs someone to do what he can't do. Wen Ningzhi is the best knife, easy to control, and the appearance is flawless. It can deceive the obedient people. Xiao Zuo was very satisfied with Wen Ningzhi, knowing that he would not resist with the chains. That's why I kept him. Spoil him, and give him all the glory and riches he wants. Even if you have a dog that bites. You have to give enough water, don't you?
Wen Ningzhi heard Xiao Zuo say this, and immediately let go of his heart, which had no temperament, and raided General Guo's mansion overnight.
Guo Younian was dreaming of taking lime as a concubine, and when he saw that he was about to enter the cave room, he even took off his clothes, and the whole person was picked up, and his body was cold and swishing. In his ears, there was a short exclamation from You's ears. Obviously, You Shi woke up. was immediately stunned.
"Who dares to break into the General's Mansion at night?" In front of him, there were torches all over the place, Guo Younian's shoulders were buckled, twisted backwards, and he was forced to kneel on the ground. However, he is a military general, and there is a little anger and resistance.
"The emperor has decreed that this marquis will be judged by you at night." The cool voice of Wen Ning came.
Guo Younian struggled to raise his head and widen his eyes. It took a long time to see the situation in his bedroom. The doors and windows were wide open, and there was silence in the courtyard, indicating that the servants were all under control. There were seven or eight people in the room. They all wore the pure black costumes of the Dark Guards, held torches, and looked as if everyone was wearing the same mask. His unconscious wife. Dressed in a middle coat, he fainted very unsightly. And the only table in the room. sat Ning Anhou, who had been in cahoots with him.
"Wen Ningzhi, what do you mean?" Guo Younian asked angrily. I woke up, and my brain was not very clear.
"What's the meaning of Benhou? Everything is the emperor's will. "Wen Ningzhi is still in good shape. In terms of possibility, no one in Quan Da Zhao is his opponent.
Guo Younian was stunned, and his first reaction was: The emperor regretted killing Miss Huo, so he came to settle accounts after the autumn. But when he chose to do this, he was mentally prepared to be angry afterwards, so he said with a stiff neck, "What does the emperor mean?" The Great Zhao State has the Great Zhao Law, even if I am punished for my crimes, there must be a reason. Otherwise, aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the generals on the side? ”
"So, the emperor wants Benhou to interrogate you. Otherwise, wouldn't it be pleasant to click a knife directly? You see, how wise and powerful is the emperor? Wen Ningzhi's smile was elegant and ruthless, in fact, it was the face of some villains, "But, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, do you dare to ask the reason?" ”
"What have I sinned?" Guo Younian had a brain teaser and decided to cooperate first, and then figure out other methods.
"Let me ask you, where did you get that Panlong human head and dragon body four chisel poppies?"
Guo Younian was shocked, and he didn't know how Wen Ningzhi knew about it. But since he asked like this, he naturally showed his traces. Instinctively, he didn't want to let go of this treasure, so he said, "How do you know I have that?" It's my family's ancestral, isn't it? ”
Wen Ningzhi laughed, "The elites of the Huo family army are all orphans, and everyone in the world knows about it, you come to tell me now that your family still has an ancestor?" ”
Guo Younian was choked, but he retorted unconvinced, "Orphans are also raised by their parents." I have a surname, so naturally I have a family. Can't I inherit something from my elders before I wander the streets? The identity and background of all members of the Huo family army are no longer examinable, so he said it blatantly. But I don't know that the more I say that things are my own, the closer I get to the death penalty.
"Are you sure that the baby is yours?" Wen Ningzhi narrowed his eyes and asked intentionally.
"I'm sure." Guo Younian took another step towards the grave.
"Do you know what that baby is?"
Regarding this point, Guo Younian couldn't lie, so he said, "It is the famous porcelain of Qianyan's palace, and later Qianyan was destroyed by my Great Zhao, and the palace was burned for a long time, and many treasures were gone, but some of them fell to the people." My family's ancestral heirloom was left around that time. ”

Thank you. (To be continued......)
PS: I was grateful and moved to see everyone's speeches in the book review area. To tell the truth, 66 wants to rest very, very much, and hates not to write anything every day. But if that's the case, 66 can't get over it in his heart. This book is not particularly popular, because my books have always been relatively niche and do not like to follow the trend. However, the results are also very good, which is inseparable from your support from beginning to end. It was the first in the monthly ticket list of the new book issue, and it also entered the top 10 last month. So, unless I can't get up, I hope it will be constantly changing, which is my only reward to the reader. To put it bluntly, everyone praised this book to this achievement, and I picked it halfway, which is not like words.
However, the hospital was different from what I thought (this was the first hospitalization in 66's life), and the time was not arranged by me. For example, I infused two 500CC liquids today, because there are anti-inflammatory ingredients, it can't be fast, otherwise it will hurt very much. So from nine o'clock in the morning to four o'clock in the afternoon, I lay alive for a day and couldn't move, and I was tired to death. Moreover, I have been afraid of injections and pains since I was a child, but in the past few days, I feel that I have suffered so many years of injections. Today, I also committed low blood sugar, and the value after the meal was only more than three o'clock, which made me tremble all over, and it was very uncomfortable. But don't worry, friends, my illness is not serious, I just have to be admitted to the hospital for recuperation.
In other words, did you guess how Liuli used the Panlong Four Chisel Poppy to frame Guo Younian who couldn't survive and die?
