Chapter 218: Questioning and Forcing Ambush
Xie Chongming didn't know how to get to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Only when he raised his head, the bright and compelling yellow, tiger-eyeing dragon head, as if it was a demon hovering overhead, frightened him into dizziness, and a sharp cry came from the hazy ears that shook his deafening ears, "Prince, you are so bold." ”
Xie Chongming only felt that his mouth was dry, and he caught a glimpse of the purple python robe on the side, and the owner of that body was looking at him with dark eyes, and suddenly remembered that some time ago, when he was doing the thing of the prince and wanted to promote the second governor of Jiang Guang, he looked at Xie Chongxuan like this.
Now that the building is crumbling, it has changed its identity in an instant.
The thoughts were cloudy, but in fact, it was only a moment, Xie Chongming knew that his deeds were lost, and he did not turn around, so he bowed and bowed, "Father, calm your anger, and your sons know their mistakes." ”
gathered together, there were Shen Qiyuan, Cui Qu and others, and Xie Chongming was ambushed at this time, thinking about father and son, just to make the emperor soft-hearted.
Sure enough, the emperor Tie Qing's face was slightly sad, but after a while, the emperor grabbed the music in his hand and threw it at him, the first one hit Xie Chongming's chest, and then the next few books were on his face and shoulder.
Xie Chongming was still kneeling, silently picking up this chapter with his hand and spreading it out to see, all the clouds on it were all promoted by officials, and the other one was impeached by Jing'an Division, and the content was not Lin Huaisheng's responsibility.
Xie Chongming's heart was calm, and his cheeks ached as if they had been brushed.
Before he could speak, the emperor shouted again, "Do you know the mistake? ”
Since Cui Qu's sentence 'The emperor is invited', Xie Chongming's heart has been cold, and he does not argue and refute it, only puts the recital book for the time being, and blindly bows his head and confesses, "The son is tempted for a while, and he also asks his father to forgive him." ”
"Momentarily distracted?"
The emperor is well ill, and there is still a plague on his face, this cold snort came out, and he took a breath before slowly saying: "You are afraid that it is not for a while, but slowly Tuzhi, I expected that you and you were just smashed by those notebooks for a while, and you didn't look closely, so I pointed out for you, and read the book of Jing'an Division on your left." ”
Xie Chongming chuckled in his heart, although Shen Qiyuan said that Lin Huaisheng was all recruited, but he had already taken poison with him before that, but if he made a mistake or missed, his life would be lost.
Therefore, he only assumed that Lin Huaisheng had confessed his crimes in his palace, and did not say anything else.
Shen Qiyuan saw that Xie Chongming was stunned, the corners of his mouth slightly raised a sneer, and he clenched his fists and bowed his head: "Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to eat and wash clothes today, and the case is very dizzy, Rong Weichen skimmed a book or two for him." ”
Xie Chongming snorted coldly when he heard this, "The important affairs of the country are all on the performance, you are just a general who protects the country, how can you go beyond your authority and read such secret things?" ”
Shen Qiyuan smiled and said nothing, but the emperor sitting on it slowed down, "You read it for him." ”
Xie Chongming was shocked, worried that the emperor was so biased, didn't he know......
Before he could think about it, Shen Qiyuan picked up the music on the ground, and discarded the aforementioned "sinner Lin was lying in the East Palace day and night, and he was worried about his actions inside and outside the palace, and his heart was anxious", and he only picked up those important things and talked about them eloquently, "The prince is in a high position and does not do business, violates filial piety, colludes with the Dayue clan, first causes Shen Hou to die, and then uses witchcraft to bring disaster to the holy body, intending to frame ......"
Before he finished reading, Xie Chongming stood up and refuted, "Nonsense, nonsense, a bunch of nonsense, father, son, the son remembered that the sinner Lin had befriended since childhood, and only then did he save him with evil intentions, how could he dare to be so nonsense!" ”
"Nonsense?"
The emperor's beard is gray, earlier than the age of the sixtieth year, and because of the irrigation of the decoction over time, his body is not as strong as before, but his spirit is still strong, and his eyes are more awe-inspiring, "Are you old and foolish?" ”
Xie Chongming didn't dare.
The emperor glanced at his eyes lightly, hiding a trace of sadness in his eyes, "Since as you said, you saved this person because of your kindness, then you should let him go and not lock him in the East Palace, right?" ”
As soon as the word was over, the emperor withdrew his gaze and looked at Xie Chongming closely, "You imprisoned him in the East Palace, nothing more than to transfer troops with Shen Qiyuan, and then, colluded with his relatives, fell into a sick state, and then enveloped the ministers, the upper sparse was unknown, and the contradiction pointed directly at Shen Qing, and used the matter of harmony to force him to bow to you, he did not surrender, so you used Shen San's girl as a threat, forced him to send troops, and imposed the crime of Lin absconding on him, saying that this was his treason, and he took the opportunity to kill the king, ascended the throne, and enjoyed the worship of foreign ministers"
The emperor said a few words, Fang paused, his anger was like a thread, and Shen Qiyuan called out worriedly, "Emperor." ”
The serving eunuch hurriedly mixed tea, but the emperor waved his hand and retreated, got up and approached Xie Chongming, bowed his head and pointed afar, "So far, you still don't recruit?"
Sentence by sentence, as if a group of soldiers were forcing Xie Chongming into a dilemma with a long knife and sharp blade, and he couldn't advance or retreat.
Xie Chongming chuckled lowly, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and muttered to himself, "Becoming a king is defeated, becoming a king is defeated." ”
He turned his eyes to Shen Qiyuan, and suddenly remembered what Shen Qiyuan said when he was in front of the palace.
It turned out that he had been strategizing for a long time, but he was just a joke with a cold eye.
Thinking of this, a shallow smile flashed in his mind, and Xie Chongming mocked, "I thought that the general was iron-blooded and tender, but I didn't expect it to be the mistake of this palace, I am used to seeing the swords and swords on the battlefield, and I have experienced many life and death battles, how can I have affection, love, it is just a weakness that you pretend." ”
After speaking, Xie Chongming raised his head in a trance and looked up at the emperor's solemn face, "Minister, admit the guilt." ”
The emperor's always cold and hard face finally showed a trace of fragility and heartache, he opened his mouth as if he was talking, turned to the bookcase with his back hand, sat down on the dragon chair that was full of blood and tears of his predecessors from afar, and gave a long sigh and a heavy order.
"The crown prince is in charge of plotting to usurp the throne, inciting his relatives, forming private parties, until the army and the people are killed or injured, and framing good ministers, the crime is unforgivable, and the prince is immediately abolished, demoted to a concubine, and imprisoned in Changchun Palace for life, and must not step out of the palace gate."
As soon as these words came out, a woman in a brocade dress jumped out from the side, crying and grabbing the ground, "The emperor can't, the prince is the future prince, the future of the country, is the child you look forward to and hope for, you can't ......."
The emperor had long been upset, but now that he saw the empress, he thought that half of the credit for her and her family was on the song, so he waved his hand in disgust and ordered the eunuch to pull her down, "Imprisoned in Changchun Palace." ”
The queen refused, threatening like a madwoman, "You eunuchs, dare to touch this palace, this palace is a dignified queen, the mother of a country......."
This remark was very exciting, and the emperor shouted, "Abolish the queen, put her mother's family in a deep prison, and even the nine clans, and the crime is to seek the throne and frame Zhongliang." ”
The queen mourned, she was dignified and luxurious before she saw it again, crawling forward and begging for mercy, climbing Xie Chongming, whose face was like ashes, "Prince, you persuade your father, you persuade him to ......"
Xie Chongming turned his gaze from the dead silence and moved in a trance, "Queen...... Queen, where did you go to such a big fire in the palace? ”
