19, the dark guard was ambushed
"Shang Fang's sword?" King Mu was a little confused, Cangbei has not had such a thing since the founding of the country, and he said puzzledly: "Your Majesty, what is this Shangfang sword?" ”
Mu Jianwolf smiled lightly, thinking that when Mu Bai mentioned it to him yesterday, he was also confused, and later he also listened to Mu Bai's explanation, only to know how it was useful, but what he didn't expect was that this idea was not from Mu Bai, but from Nalan Bing, who was acting strangely.
"It has been mentioned in the holy book of the Four Kingdoms "Governing the Country" that the ancient things are still the will, and they can be the sword or it, and they can do it on behalf of the king's order.
This is similar to the Shang Fang sword, this Shang Fang sword, on the fight against the king, down to fight the gluttony, in case of emergency, can be cut first and then played.
The third prince Mu Bai, take the sword! ”
"Sons obey orders!"
Mu Bai took Shang Fang's sword, lightly opened the scabbard, pulled out the sword, and the cold light was everywhere, and the ministers who were kneeling on the ground were shocked into a cold sweat.
"Good sword." Mu Bai couldn't help but praise.
"After your Taizu founded the country, he ordered skilled craftsmen to use the unique Tianmagnetic Xuaniron in southern Xinjiang to create it, and cut the iron like clay.
In the future, you will use this sword to govern the Southern Privy Council well, and do not disappoint me and your ancestors. ”
"The son will not be dishonored."
Mu Jianwolf nodded with satisfaction, once Mu Bai completely took over the entire Southern Privy Council, it was time to clear the Yelu clan, and he looked condescendingly at the ministers who were still kneeling on the ground, "How do you think about it?" Do you want to return to your hometown, or continue to serve the court? ”
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all glanced at Yelu Zongtu.
Yelu Zongtu shook his head secretly, and everyone said that it was an impulse just now, and they believed that the emperor would make a fair decision and was willing to continue to serve the court.
Mu Jian Wolf knew that they were only temporarily subservient, if the matter between Yan Yong and Bao Zhilin could not be satisfactorily resolved, this dispute would not subside, and Mu Bai would not be able to truly take over the Southern Privy Council.
"I said that after the death of Lord Yan, I will definitely find out, and you have no jokes."
As soon as Mu Jianwolf's words fell, someone from outside the hall reported, "Report, Your Majesty, the son of Lord Wan Yan Yong, Wan Yan Changkong asked to see him, saying that he had caught the real murderer who killed his father." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and it seemed that there was something wrong with Wan Yan Yong's death.
Especially Mu Jianwolf, everything that happened before, except for Wan Yan Yong's death, was basically expected by him and Mu Bai, and now that he said that he had found the murderer who killed Wan Yan Yong, he suddenly had a feeling that he was not very good.
But now, he can only take one step at a time, so he said: "Xuan! ”
"After announcing Yan Changkong, I'll see you."
"After announcing Yan Changkong, I'll see you."
Wan Yan Changkong was about twenty-two years old, dressed in a white brocade robe, his hair was tied up with a hosta, his eyebrows were clear, and he was followed by two entourages, escorting a person into the main hall slowly.
"After the minister, Yan Changkong has seen the emperor." Wanyan Changkong served as a privy councillor of the Southern Privy Council, equivalent to the secretary of the entire Privy Council, and although the official position was only five grades, it was an important position.
"I heard that you caught the murderer of Lord Wanyan? Didn't Lord Wanyan die of illness? Mu Jianwolf looked at the person who was escorted to the hall behind him, who was not his person, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"My father came back to the house yesterday, and after seeing the leg injury and drinking the medicine, he had a fever, and he kept saying that he was not feeling well, and we invited the witch doctor, and the witch doctor did not see anything wrong.
As a result, early this morning, when my mother woke my father to get up, my father said that he had a stomachache, and then I fell unconscious, and by the time the witch doctor arrived, my father had already died.
At that time, the witch doctor said that his father may have died of inflammation caused by a leg injury, so he reported to the emperor that his father died of illness.
But then the minister found this strange man behind him in the backyard of the house, he looked panicked, behaved treacherously, and his behavior was very suspicious, so he took advantage of his unpreparedness, and grabbed him with the guard, and received a white porcelain vase on his body.
The witch doctor confirmed that the porcelain vase was a crane top red, and the father was also confirmed to have died not of inflammation, but of poisoning, and the person behind him was most likely the murderer.
The most important thing is that it has been confirmed that the murderer is the secret guard in the palace of the three princes, and the stakes are very high, and the minister has to press the murderer to the main hall and ask the emperor to decide. Wan Yan Changkong knelt on top of the main hall and told the facts plainly, even when it came to his father's death, there was not much emotional fluctuation.
For his reaction, Mu Bai frowned lightly.
After Yan Changkong's words, it was like a boulder breaking the lake that had just calmed, and all the ministers were discussing, and many people cast questioning glances at Mu Bai.
Mu Jianwolf looked at Yelu Zongtu, and knew in his heart that this matter must have nothing to do with him, no wonder he agreed to Mu Xiu so calmly just now, that is, he didn't react much to Mu Bai's takeover of the Southern Privy Council, originally he had arranged this step.
used Huang Zhutao and Bao Zhilin to trap Nalan Bing, and then used Yan Yong's death to tie Mu Bai, he was really scheming.
"Mu Bai, is that person indeed the secret guard of your mansion?" Mu Jianwolf said coldly.
Mu Bai still calmly looked at the person behind Yan Changkong, slowly walked to his side, and untied the rope on his body for him.
"Third Prince, who are you?" Wan Yan Changkong asked coldly.
"Back to my father, he is indeed the secret guard in my house.
Yesterday, Lord Wanyan agreed to testify against Lord Yelu, and Erchen was worried about Lord Wanyan's safety, so he specially sent secret guards to protect Lord Wanyan.
As for the crane top red in his arms, all the dark guards around me will have a bottle on them, not to poison others, but to kill themselves as a last resort.
There must be an inside story in this matter, and you can't just listen to the words of the privy councillor to determine right and wrong, but also listen to how Mei Jian explains. ”
Mu Bai turned to look at the dark guard, "Mei Jian, what's going on?" I ordered you to protect Lord Wanyan, why would the privy councillor say that you poisoned Lord Wanyan. ”
Mei Jian first kowtowed to the emperor to say goodbye, and then said slowly: "Yesterday, the prince ordered his subordinates to go to protect Lord Wanyan, which was originally very smooth, and his subordinates have been latent in Lord Wanyan's room.
But later, not long after Lord Wanyan's second lady gave a bowl of medicine to Lord Wanyan, for some reason, his subordinates suddenly lost consciousness, and they didn't wake up until this morning, only to find that they were no longer in Lord Wanyan's room, but in the backyard of Wanyan's mansion.
The subordinates wanted to find out the situation of Lord Yan, but they were tied up by the Nan Privy Counsellor who couldn't help but say, saying that his subordinates were the murderers who poisoned Lord Yan, and then they were pressed here. ”
"It's just nonsense, has the world changed today?
The murderer turned into a secret guard to protect the victim, this is completely his own statement, and there is no evidence at all.
However, the privy councillor received the poison that poisoned Lord Wanyan on him, and the evidence was conclusive, so he asked the emperor to order the execution of the secret guard Mei Jian, and then deal with the three princes according to the law to show justice. As soon as Mei Jian's words fell, a minister said righteously.
