Chapter 195: For Whom
"Your Majesty! The concubine (Weichen) is wronged! Concubine Xue and Liu Yang spoke in unison, and then Concubine Xue preemptively said: "Your Majesty, the concubine has long been removed from the slavery for Yanxiang, where would she have thought that she would suddenly come to find the concubine, only said that she was bullied by Liu's father-in-law, and the concubine was in the old love, originally wanted to persuade her to settle the matter, but I didn't expect that the girl was stubborn, and insisted on going her own way, the concubine really took pity on her, after all, Yanxiang has been with the concubine for many years, this matter is the concubine's fault, and please ask the emperor for forgiveness!" ”
"What about Liu Yisi?" The emperor didn't pay attention to Concubine Xue, but instead looked at Liu Yang and asked coldly: "Could it be that Yanxiang had already looked for you before going to find Concubine Xue, so you appeared here to speak for Yanxiang?" ”
"Weichen didn't dare, Weichen only saw Yanxiang after receiving the news from Concubine Xue's mother." Liu Yang hurriedly explained: "Weichen didn't expect Yanxiang to be so bold and dare to slander Gonggong Liu, and ask the emperor for forgiveness. ”
"Your Majesty!" At this moment, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, who had just taken Yan Xiang away, walked in and said to the emperor respectfully: "Yan Xiang has already confessed that she has suffered a lot because she has a grudge against Gonggong Liu's words back then, so she wants to take revenge on Gonggong Liu." ”
's words made the framing of Father-in-law Liu seem to be settled.
Whether you want to let it go or not is always up to the Son of Heaven to decide.
"Concubine Xue, I remember that you seem to be still grounded?" The emperor waved his hand and motioned for the Praetorian Guards to go down, then looked at Concubine Xue and said, "The rules of the Yuanguo Mansion really don't seem to be very good, do you want to invite the Duchess of Yuanguo into the palace to teach you the rules?" ”
"The concubine knew her mistake, and the concubine immediately went back to the palace to reflect." When Concubine Xue heard the emperor say this, she knew that the emperor was planning to let herself go, but would Liu Yang come out of herself?
The current situation no longer allowed her to think too much, so after hearing the emperor's cold snort, she immediately withdrew from the imperial study.
"Niangniang, does the emperor suspect you?" Walking out of the imperial study, Liu Zhucai, who was beside Concubine Xue, asked in a low voice, "Will you be angry with Niangniang?" ”
"No, it won't." Concubine Xue has regained her former calm, "Since the emperor let the palace come out, then he will no longer worry about the palace, you also know that the palace has been in front of the emperor all these years, and she is a woman who is very easy to be deceived, so this time the emperor probably feels that the palace has been deceived by others." ”
"What if Liu Yang confesses his mother?" Liu Zhu said worriedly: "Then what can't Liu Yang do to protect himself?" ”
"What can he say about Hongu?" Concubine Xue sneered, stopped, stretched out her hand and snapped the branch in front of her, and said mockingly: "That is, he thought that Yan Xiang was the person who found out that Yan Xiang was the person from the palace, and he even wanted to threaten the palace, did he really think that the palace didn't know what he wanted to do?" ”
"Fortunately, Niangniang told Gonggong Liu the news in advance, otherwise, it would be difficult for us to get out." Liuzhu was also relieved when he thought of this.
"I just don't know what the master wants to do? Is it planning to give up Liu Yang's chess piece? Xue Fei muttered a few words in a low voice, and looked in the direction of the imperial study.
In fact, she thought that Liu Yang's plan to use Yanxiang to deal with Liu Gonggong was too obvious, and she seemed to be able to find flaws when she asked casually, but she didn't know why the master agreed.
Just when Yanxiang came with the news of success, Concubine Xue received a message from her master, asking her to tell Liu Yang and Yanxiang's plan to Liu Gonggong.
Although she was also very surprised at the time, no matter what, she didn't dare not listen to what her master ordered, so in the hall today, it was just the emperor and Gonggong Liu accompanying Liu Yang and Yanxiang to perform a scene, but Concubine Xue also knew in her heart that this time Liu Yang was only afraid that she would be in the catastrophe.
"Little Liuzi, this time I was careless." In the imperial study, the emperor glanced at Gonggong Liu and said calmly: "But you are not afraid of being wronged, just take it back from that person." ”
"Your Majesty, the slave wants to sue Liu Yisi!" As soon as the emperor's words fell, Gonggong Liu was already kneeling on the ground, took out a letterhead from his sleeve, raised it above his head and said: "There is enough evidence in this letterhead to prove that Liu Yisi accepted bribes, deliberately confused Fengxing's identity, and deceived the emperor!" ”
"Grandpa Liu! You don't want to spew blood! Of course Liu Yang refused to admit it, he confirmed that Feng Xing just hoped that he could become the chief ceremonial secretary, so he went to the Yun family, he had a very close relationship with Yun Yi, how could he accept bribes?
"Your Majesty, the slave didn't spew blood, Liu Yang hated Lord Chen Lichen, so he once secretly attacked Lord Chen, but Lord Chen's life was saved, although Liu Yisi didn't show up at that time, but Lord Chen had already figured out who did it!" Gonggong Liu glanced at Liu Yang coldly, and his gaze seemed to be looking at a dead person.
Liu Yang chuckled in his heart, but he still stubbornly explained: "Your Majesty, Weichen is really wronged, even if Qin Tianjian has great ability, it is impossible to deduce any murderer......
"Lord Liu! If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can find Lord Chen and ask! Father-in-law Liu seems to be deliberately going against Liu Yang, and he is going against him every word.
The emperor was thoughtful when he heard Gonggong Liu's sentence of calculating the killer, and immediately nodded and said, "Spread Chen Li to the imperial study to see me." ”
"Your Majesty!" Chen Li arrived in the imperial study, even if he noticed that Liu Yang was here, he didn't say much.
"Gonggong Liu said that you can deduce the murderer, is this true?" The emperor also seemed to have things in mind, so he opened his mouth bluntly.
"If you go back to the emperor, Weichen can indeed do it." Chen Li didn't mean to deny it at all, but readily admitted it.
"In that case, you go to the Shen Criminal Division to meet King Xuan!" The emperor seemed to be very suspicious of Ouyang Haoxuan's poisoning of Xue Guifei, and even put Liu Yang's matter aside, but instead arranged for Chen Li to go directly to the Shen Criminal Division!
"Yes!" Chen Li responded, and the emperor seemed to be pondering, so he didn't see that Gonggong Liu's still nervous face was slightly relaxed, as if he had completed something on his mind.
Beijing, Prudent Criminal Division.
The Penal Division is located in the most prosperous area of the capital, and not far from the surrounding is the residence of the official family.
In fact, this is also a way for the emperor to deter the military officials, in order to naturally make them honest and honest officials, otherwise they will eventually fall into the Shen Criminal Division and suffer.
Chen Lihe and Yun Yuexi, who were pretending to be little eunuchs, had just gotten off the carriage in front of the Shenxing Division, when they were stopped by the jailers guarding the door, "Who dares to trespass on the Shenxing Division!" ”
"The emperor has an order, and Chief Chen Yisi came to interrogate Ouyang Haoxuan." Yun Yuexi held the token that the emperor originally gave Chen Li in his hand and spoke in a deep voice.
Although the sky was already slightly bright, the light was still dim, and Yun Yuexi had changed her appearance before she came, so she was not worried that the other party would be suspicious.
Sure enough, when the jailer guarding the door heard Chen Li's name, he immediately apologized and said, "Please wait a while, and the little one will go and report it." ”
Chen Li and Yun Yuexi didn't wait long, and saw a young man hurrying over with someone from a distance, and after seeing Chen Li, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I didn't expect Lord Chen to come over at this time, I missed the distance, and I ask Lord Chen for forgiveness." ”
"Lord Feng is serious." Chen Li heard the voice of the visitor, and hurriedly said with a smile: "If it weren't for the emperor's order, I wouldn't have bothered Lord Feng at this time, and I hope Lord Feng won't be weird." ”
"No, no, no!" Feng Hao subconsciously glanced at Yun Yuexi beside Chen Li, although the little eunuch had been standing aside with his eyebrows lowered, he always felt a little weird, turned his head and said awe-inspiring to the person behind him: "There's nothing to do with you here, go down!" ”
When everyone had retreated, Feng Hao said tentatively: "Lord Chen, the two adults sent by the emperor have been drunk by me, do you want to see His Royal Highness King Xuan now?" ”
"Thank you, Lord Feng." In fact, according to Zhu Qiguo's official position, the Shen Criminal Division has always been outside the officialdom, just like Ouyang Haoxuan's meaning to the emperor is similar, they are both sharp blades in the hands of the emperor, but Chen Li and Feng Hao both understand each other's identities, and naturally respect each other very much.
Yun Yuexi has been looking at Feng Hao, although she knows that Feng Hao is Ouyang Haoxuan's person, but she is suspicious of anyone, but seeing the dark green in Feng Hao's eyes and the appearance of a little hangover, her heart is slightly relieved, it seems that this Feng Hao is indeed loyal enough.
When Feng Hao took Chen Li and Yun Yuexi to approach the Tianzi cell of the Shen Penal Division, Ouyang Haoxuan was standing in front of the only small window and was distracted, when he heard the sound of the door opening, he turned his head to look at the person who came, Ouyang Haoxuan saw Yun Yuexi beside Chen Li at a glance, although that person's appearance did not resemble Yun Yuexi, but those eyes Ouyang Haoxuan would definitely not admit his mistake.
Chen Li seemed to sense something, and suddenly stopped Feng Hao, and said in a low voice: "Lord Feng, take a step to speak!" ”
Feng Hao was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Ouyang Haoxuan looking at the little eunuch brought by Chen Li, he was shocked, and instantly guessed the identity of the other party.
In the entire Zhu Qiguo, the only person who can make His Royal Highness King Xuan stop and be moved, that is Yun Yuexi!
"Xi'er, you're disobedient again." Ouyang Haoxuan waited until there was no one else here, he couldn't help but sigh, strode up to Yun Yuexi, held her in his arms and whispered, "I'm sorry for worrying you." ”
"I thought you should have told me everything." Yun Yuexi snorted, buried her face in Ouyang Haoxuan's chest, her voice was muffled, and she said a little unhappily: "Do you think I'm not qualified to stand by your side?" ”
"What the hell are you talking about, silly girl?" Ouyang Haoxuan laughed, stroked her hair and said, "For me, you are the best one and only in the world, I just don't want you to worry." ”
"The first time you came here, it was because of me." Yun Yuexi raised her head from Ouyang Haoxuan's arms and looked at the surrounding environment, "It's pretty clean, but who is it for this time?" ”
