Chapter Seventy-One: The Worst Sin
The carriage was on the official road in the low mountain plains, and the speed was no longer as fast as when it went to Xuanzhou. The boring road and cold weather made the trip very dull.
And Jiangning Chengxin Hall is already noisy.
The first letter presented to Li Yu's case was a plea for Li Congyi's poor protection of the envoys, and it did not mention the identity of the assassin.
Li Yu said angrily: "How can bandits be rampant in my world, don't they have any compassion? The envoy had just left the capital, and he had not even been able to meet the assassin in less than half a day. ”
Xu Liao said comfortingly: "The official family is angry, His Royal Highness King Deng has sent someone to investigate, and I believe that it will soon be revealed, and it will be captured." ”
Zhang Xunpi said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Deng mentioned in the report that the Qin delegation was assassinated on the Shuiyang River and almost died, if it weren't for General Deng's strong martial arts and quick response, maybe the loss would have been even greater. "Zuo Chuan" cloud: one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion. The voice of the inspector of the mission died down as soon as the drum was drummed, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to continue after that! ”
"This ......" Li Yu hesitated a little, believing in karma, he even doubted whether there was any cause for such a result at this time.
Xu You saw the clue, and said lightly at this time: "Don't worry, this matter happened in the territory of His Royal Highness King Deng, he immediately went to the guilty chapter, and he must be anxious to investigate, and General Deng has not yet submitted a report, so it is better to wait and see." ”
As soon as the words fell, the second letter was presented by Xu Yuanyu, a member of the staff, and walked quickly. Everyone has read the first one, but this one is different, I don't know what happened, I can only look at the expression on Li Yu's face with anticrisy to speculate and judge.
Li Yu smiled brightly at first, but soon turned sometimes crimson, sometimes angry, and finally slapped the case: "This assassin is so rampant!" ”
Li Yu threw down the concerto, Xu You and the other three gathered together to watch it at a glance and ten lines, this concerto made him so frightened, originally said that he had caught the assassin with a trick, and the pen turned to the assassin was the head of Deng Wangfu, and one of the intentions of a long-planned and behind-the-scenes action was to make the court think that Deng Wangfu sent someone to assassinate the envoy and provoke a struggle between the two. Even if there is no mention of the enclosure of Deng Wangfu and who is the instigator behind the scenes, it is shocking enough.
"My twenty-sixth brother, the shepherd guards Xuanzhou is already in such a miserable place, I don't know if food and clothing are enough, and there are still people who want to use him to set off treacherous disputes in the court, it is really a crime that deserves death."
Xu Liao said in a sympathetic tone: "What the official family said is that His Royal Highness King Deng is pure filial piety and shares worries for the country. The people behind the scenes are so hateful that they want to use His Royal Highness King Deng as a target to provoke trouble. ”
Xu You said: "Now that the truth has been ascertained, the assassination has nothing to do with His Royal Highness King Deng, it is a great fortune that someone instructed the head of the palace to commit murder." The most important thing at the moment is how to deal with the murderer and find out what the intentions of the people behind the scenes are. ”
Zhang Xun said very decisively: "The intention is obvious. Knowing that His Royal Highness King Deng is the younger brother of the official family, he has a deep brotherhood, brother and brother, once he provokes an incident, the court will be in chaos, and the official family and His Royal Highness will be greatly harmed. ”
"It seems that I killed the twenty-sixth brother and also harmed the landing, isn't it in the name of a 'patrol official voice', who revealed it, and how did it cause such a disaster?"
Zhang Xun hurriedly said: "Official, this also shows that the official reputation of the inspector is not appropriate, the world itself is stable, there is no need to inspect like this, and it is like what happened to His Royal Highness King Deng, it is easy to attract the conspiracy of people with a heart." Even if this matter is settled, what will happen in the future? In the long run, the court will not be at peace. ”
This sentence can be regarded as speaking to Li Yu's heart. Just when Li Yu was about to approve, Xu You spoke up: "Does the official family still remember Han Feizi's 'Bian Que sees Cai Huangong', in which there is a sentence 'Jun has a disease in his stomach, and if he is not cured, he will be afraid of the deep'?" ”
Everyone looked at Xu You in wonder, as if they had guessed what Xu You wanted to say, and they all nodded. When Bian Que saw Cai Huangong's article, he said that Cai Huangong was obsessed with illness and avoided medical treatment, and finally fell ill to the bone marrow and died of physical pain, which is to warn the people of the world, especially those in power, to face up to reality, face personal disasters and social crises, and take rescue measures as soon as possible.
Xu You said with a smile: "At this moment, the state-owned disease is in the gut, and if it is not treated, it will be deep." The problem of the Tang Kingdom is that the enemy is trying to disturb the heart of our Tang Kingdom, and he has always sent people to lurk in various places, and the price of salt can be seen. Can we cure it? Wouldn't it be better if we could find these people? This is the prevention of disease, the credit is small and the effect is long-term. Imagine that if the task of the head of the palace is not to assassinate the envoy, but to assassinate His Royal Highness King Deng, although the chaos that can be set off is weaker, but the damage to the officials and the country is also huge. Such a person is more than one stone more, and there may be. We don't know where they are. Moreover, Landing and Zhen Feng were both wise and brave, and they captured the assassin in less than a day, and so many details were interrogated, which shows that they are very capable, so it is better to take this opportunity to lure the snake out of the hole. ”
Xu You's attitude was clear this time, because he knew that Zhang Xun's opposition came from landing on the "Inspector Voice", and the power of the Governor who had already been in his hands had been greatly discounted, and even Zhang Xun suspected that the "Inspector Voice" was here to suppress him, and Zhang Xun was somewhat blinded by power. But the soaring price of salt is still counting on Zhen Feng, and it is also very good to be able to get rid of some troubles, which can not be compared to one's own selfishness.
Zhang Xun really glanced at Xu You meaningfully in private, but also accepted this point of view. It's really good for the country to have a pathfinder to solve these problems. Still, he raised some concerns.
After discussing for a while, Li Yu asked, "How did that assassin arrange it?" ”
Xu Liao replied: "General Deng said that he carried it with him. ”
Li Yu laughed angrily: "An assassin is not a thing, how can you carry it with you." ”
"Yes, it was Weichen who didn't make it clear. General Deng thought that whether he was sent to Jiangning or stayed in King Deng's mansion, it would be easy to sink the truth behind the scenes, and he could change his tricks at any time for interrogation. ”
"Hmph, King Deng's Mansion may be short of manpower, but Jiangning is full of talents, so doesn't General Deng look down on people?" Zhang Xun wasted no time in making up for it.
"Shi is too worried, General Deng may be worried that it will not be safe on the way to the capital, General Deng is strong in martial arts, and he can ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Just when the discussion in Chengxin Hall was intense, Xu Yuanyu came over again in broken steps, and Zhang Xun transferred his dissatisfaction with the Xu family to Xu Yuanyu: "Yuanyu, what else is urgent, the official family is discussing the affairs of His Royal Highness King Deng at the moment, and other matters will be held off for the time being." ”
Xu Yuanyu shook deeply towards Li Yu, holding the chapter with both hands, and said: "Official, this is His Royal Highness King Deng's request for sin, and Weichen does not dare to delay, so he disturbs the official family." ”
Li Yu smiled happily: "Excuse me, didn't you already ask for guilt just now?" Later, I found out when I landed, and I already knew that the sin was not his, so why bother asking for sin. ”
Xu Yuanyu trembled slightly, and didn't know how to respond, so he said: "Official, His Royal Highness King Deng mentioned in the recital that he ...... He was guilty of great evil. Please read the Imperial Chapter. ”
