Chapter 168: Thoughts in the Eye Waves
"Back to the emperor, after the minister found a slanderous letter in Yan's mansion that day, which was exactly the same as the one the emperor saw, he put Yan Qi and his wife in prison for careful interrogation, so he learned some hidden secrets, as well as about General Yan's innocence." Mo Yu said.
"Then you can say it." The emperor raised his hand and said.
"Your Majesty, after examination, Yan Qi finally pleaded guilty, he has admitted that the letter was made by himself, he arranged everything, and disrupted the order of the tablets in the ancestral hall of Yanfu, in order to cover his ears and steal the bell, so that people can understand that it is really the envelope that he inadvertently found in the process of wiping, and it happened to be seen by Yuanshou Gonggong, so it was logical to slander it to the general."
"Not only that, but he also cleared his suspicions, and did not open the envelope, but after opening it by Yuanshou's father-in-law, he pretended not to know anything, and then it was what the emperor knew." Mo Yu said briefly.
"Yan Qi really said that?" The emperor asked.
"Yes, and Na Yanqi himself admitted the matter, and said that he did it alone, and hoped that the emperor would spare his wife and son, and said that the most sorry person was the general." Mo Yu replied.
"It's ridiculous, an illegitimate son of the Yan family dares to slander my general, and he doesn't want to live." The emperor said.
"Your Majesty, you can't just listen to what Yan Qi said, what if you were forced to say it after being tortured." Liu Duhu said dissatisfied.
"Liu Duhu, you are too unreasonable, what Yan Qi said was credible at the beginning, but what Yan Qi said today is not believed, what kind of statement is this?" Xia Shangshu said.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister will not tell lies, nor will he let the prisoners tell lies, Dali Temple is under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, if the emperor is not at ease, he can go directly to check it out, and there is no need for the minister to explain here." Mo Yu said.
"Liu Duhu, you step back first, otherwise something will go wrong in this court." The emperor said impatiently.
'Your Majesty, the ministers talk a lot, but the ministers don't say anything, don't say it. Liu Duhu hurriedly knelt down and said.
"Shut up if you want to stay here." The emperor said.
Nangong Li looked at the angry emperor above and couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, thinking that it was impossible to lock Ah Rong in the palace anymore.
"Your Majesty, Yan Qi also said that there are not only these two envelopes, but he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he forged a number of envelopes, which have not been destroyed until now, and the ministers also went to check them, it is indeed true, and the rest of the envelopes are all found in the ancestral hall of Yan's mansion, please see it." After Mo Yu finished speaking, he ordered someone to present it.
"Therefore, it has now been determined that this matter was committed by Yan Qi, and it has nothing to do with Yan Jing and Yan Rong." The emperor asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Mo Yu replied.
"Your Majesty, should Yan Qi come out on the spot for certification before he can clear Yan Rong's charges?" Xia Shangshu said.
"Your Majesty, since the results have come out, then you must severely punish Yan Qi and slander the officials of our court, and it stands to reason that you should be punished." The prime minister also said.
"Prime Minister, what are you doing in such a hurry, if you don't summon Yan Qi up, and don't ask why you want to frame the Yan family without asking about the situation, this matter will not be over." Nangong Li said.
"Your Majesty, General Yan is no longer in prison now, which means that the emperor already believes in General Yan in his heart, and now he will correct the false prisoner on the spot, so as to show the emperor's best explanation to the Yan family." Cheng said to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, don't you want to know why Yan Qi wants to frame the Yan family, or is it that someone is behind Yan Qi's control, you know, no matter how capable he Yan Qi is, it is impossible to directly harm the people of his own family, besides, the person who framed him is still the protector general of Daqi, so if something is pulled out, will it be unfavorable to the emperor and Daqi." Nangong Li also said.
"Father, what Xiao Li said is reasonable, and just simply executing that Yan Qi can't get back the suffering that Yan Rong has suffered in the past few days." Nangong Yu also said.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Rong are both sons of the emperor, so the emperor must have listened to what he said." Su Ji also said on the side.
"Bring Yan Qi up, by the way, call Yan Rong again." Above the lobby, they had already made the emperor uneasy with every word, Nangong Cheng never thought that Nangong Li would come regardless of it, you must know that he had avoided these things before. Coming here today, although he didn't show anything, it already made Nangong Qian feel uncomfortable.
"The minister's face greets the emperor." Yan Rong came quickly, and he was neatly dressed, holding the Kunwu sword in his hand, wearing armor, and stepped forward step by step, every step was so resolute, all of them were so ruthless.
Nangong Cheng looked at Yan Rong's eyes and always felt that Yan Rong was going to stand up and kill himself in the next second, as if he saw that person's eyes again, and it was like this, which made him feel cold.
"Get up, why are you dressed like this?" Nangong Qian retracted his gaze and said.
"Your Majesty, the minister was originally a military general, and the court wore court clothes, and this armor was found by Xia Niangniang to help the minister, and the minister naturally couldn't be undressed when he came to this hall." Yan Rong said without humility or arrogance.
"Weapons are not allowed in the court, what are you doing with the Kunwu sword?" Nangong asked again.
"Your Majesty, the Kunwu sword has long been no longer the weapon of the minister, it is a symbol of our Yan family, and it also represents the harmony between the Yan family and the Nangong family, the emperor, the minister's father and brother have all passed away, and only the minister and this Kunwu sword can represent the Yan family, therefore, it must be here." Yan Rong said.
"Your Majesty, Yan Rong is right, this sword will take longer than anyone here." Xia Linfeng also said, and all the ministers also sighed one after another, the legend of this sword.
"Yan Rong, I called you here today to clear up the previous misunderstanding, Yan Qi has already pleaded guilty, it was he who framed Yan Mansion and wrote the envelope in imitation of your father's handwriting, so you and your father are not guilty." Nangong Cheng said.
"Your Majesty, the minister has long said that this matter has nothing to do with the Yan family." Yan Rong said with a smile as if he had already known the news.
"I didn't mean that I didn't trust you when I locked you in prison, it was precisely because I trusted you and trusted Yan Jiajun that I locked you up, and then explained to the world after finding evidence, otherwise the people would not accept that their protector general was a traitor." Nangong Qian explained.
"The ministers said by the emperor all understand, and the ministers are willing to bow down and listen to the emperor's dispatch." Yan Rong now understands that only by bowing his head can he meet the will of the above, what to clear up the grievances, in order not to give himself a deep blow.
"The person who knows the times is Junjie, Yanrong, you are a person who knows how to advance and retreat, you must also understand what I mean, above this court, there are colleagues who are older than you, you have the ability to stand here at a young age, but you may also be arrogant, and because of this, you must also be careful." Nangong Cheng said it, and as for whether Yan Rong listened to it, he said something else.
"Obey." The face is just a salute and obeys.
For a while, there was silence in the lobby, no one spoke, and there was nothing to say, Yan Rong's eyes, face and body could only stand tightly in place, not daring to deviate a step, Yan Rong knew that behind him was Zili, that was the Zili in his heart, but he couldn't look back, this was the hall, hold back himself.
Nangong Li's heart doesn't have to be anxious, the back in front of him is so familiar and so distant, he doesn't like the appearance of Yan Rong wearing armor, because then he feels that Ah Rong will leave him immediately and go to the battlefield, he still likes Ah Rong to wear that light purple and light white dress, that is his wife, it is his own Ah Rong.
Xia Linfeng looked at these two people and endured very uncomfortable, and sighed in his heart, one wanted to step forward, the other wanted to turn back, but they couldn't do it, the prison has separated a young couple in the past few days, who looks at it.
"Your Majesty, the criminal Yan Qi has arrived." Suddenly, a voice sounded outside the door, which finally broke the silence, and also gave Yan Rong a chance to turn his head.
Yan Rong's eyes did not drift outside, but stared at Nangong Li, what made Yan Rong feel a sour nose was that everyone turned around, only he was still standing in place, staring at himself stubbornly, and a thousand words were stuck in his throat, and the eyes of the two people met, as if they had just separated yesterday, and their thoughts and love immediately came to their mouths, as if there was no one else around.
I thought that my thoughts about you were just simple thoughts, but I didn't expect that it had reached the bones, in my mind, and I couldn't get rid of it, and I couldn't get rid of it.
"Zili." Yan Rong couldn't stay too long, but said a silent name with trembling lips, a person who was not afraid of prison, but now he was full of tears.
The same is true for Nangong Li, what is in front of her is Ah Rong, who has not thought about tea and dinner in the past few days, but she can't say a word, she saw the name that Ah Rong shouted, her eyes were full of bitterness, she was not doing well, at least in her own opinion, her cheeks became thinner, and her expression was not so bright.
"Bring it on." The emperor said.
No one saw the eye waves between the two, only slowly converged between them, Yan Rong turned his head with patience, and happened to meet Su Qi's gaze again, he really didn't see it, Su Qi was also here, and he was still standing next to Nangong Yu, yes, I felt that someone was staring at me just now, but now I realized that that person was Nangong Yu, I don't know when, my heart was only filled by one person.
Everything has been prepared, Yan Qi has been severely punished at this time, and he was dragged forward, and the emperor said that it seems true that Yan Rong was treated well, otherwise Yan Rong was unharmed, and this Yan Qi would have only half a life left.
"Yan Qi, are you guilty?" The emperor asked.
"Grass People..... The grass people know their guilt, accept the guilt, the emperor, all of them are the fault of the grass people, the fault of the grass people...... "Yan Qi has no wounds on his whole face, and the rest are full of devastation, it seems that Dali Temple is really ruthless."
"I ask you, why did you frame the Yan family, frame Yan Jing, and frame my minister." Nangong Cheng asked.
"Back to the emperor, the grass people are just confused, they want to get the Yan family's property, and they want to become the master of the Yan family, so they will think of this method, but I didn't expect that the grass people thought it was too simple." Yan Qi said.
"Nonsense, you want to get the property? You want to be the master of the Yan family, you are delusional, you won't do this, who is it, who made you do this? ”
