116 Suddenly wake up from a dream and participate in the business, and then set off the wind and clouds and the sun is shining
In the past five years, Li Hongyi, as the first person in the military, has firmly sat in the position of privy envoy. However, since Xi'ou had retreated at this time, and the Turks were currently on good terms with our Korea, Li Hongyi had no chance of going on an expedition. There was no war outside, no turmoil inside, Li Hongyi finally married Wu Huiming as his wife, and the young couple lived a peaceful and peaceful life. However, when he was empty, he always inexplicably thought of Shao An, who had returned to the mountains and forests, and didn't know how he was doing.
At this time, Li Hongyi's position in the DPRK and China was already stable, and Feng Che's provocation stirred up a thousand waves. Even Prime Minister Sun Yi did not agree and did not seconded Feng Che's dismissal. However, Feng Che was a stubborn tendon, and after being dismissed, he continued to write and continue to fold. Over and over again, endlessly, the emperor was annoyed and had to agree.
But the emperor agreed, but he asked the three divisions to interrogate in order to seek justice. Even so, the military was still not convinced, and asked for several observer places, so a shocking trial of ghosts and gods began.
On the day of the triage of the three divisions, the lobby was full of powerful people. The Criminal Department, the Yushitai, and the Dali Temple were tried. In addition, the military's Song father and son, Li Honghui, Xu Lei and other military generals, as well as Zhang San, Xu Qi and other hidden guards of the Guards Division, sat under the stage to hear the trial.
At the opening of a big scene, Feng Che sat in the main seat, slapped the shocking wood, and said loudly: "With a suspect." ”
This time, Li Hongyi was not admitted to the prison of the Criminal Department, nor did he wear prison uniforms. Just confined at home, wearing a civilian's coarse cloth black shirt, calmly walked into the lobby.
Li Hongyi felt that he was not afraid of shadows, and in addition to Shao An's testimony five years ago, he was not afraid.
However, Feng Che deserves to be a master of case solving, he did not ask Li Hongyi whether he shot Shao An, but asked him from another angle, starting from a question that everyone had long ignored.
I only heard Feng Che say: "General Li, on the day of the hunt, why did you leave the crowd and go to a remote forest with no prey?" ”
Li Hongyi: "......"
This question poked at Li Hongyi's life and made him unable to answer. However, Feng Che was not as easy to fool as Pei Shaojun, and Li Hongyi let him go if he didn't answer. He asked again, "Then the officer asked again, why did General Li go to the grove?" ”
"Someone...... Flying arrows passed the book, and tricked me to go. Li Hongyi would not deceive people, so he had to answer honestly.
Feng Che confirmed again: "That is to say, someone deliberately led you there." ”
"Yes."
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar. They didn't expect that there was such a hidden story behind this case. The old general Song Qi couldn't help it at first, and scolded: "What a villain, he dares to deceive General Li." ”
In addition, some civil officials of the Criminal Department remembered a rumor back then, and they all whispered that Shao An had tricked Li Hongyi into going to the woods, and then set up a bitter plan to put Li Hongyi to death.
But some people wondered why Shao An later testified in court to clarify the facts. Could it be that he couldn't pretend anymore, so he came forward to pretend to be a good person and clear up the suspicions?
Feng Che ignored the criticism of the people below and continued to ask, "What is written in that person's letter?" How did he trick you into going to the woods? ”
"He wrote in the letter, saying that he knew Shao Xiang's secret." Li Hongyi recalled the past and said slowly, "Then let me go to the grove, there is a box in the forest, and the secret is hidden in it." ”
The word secret aroused everyone's conjecture, and everyone's eyes were full of curiosity. What will be Shao An's secret, is it corruption and bribery, and conspiracy against the enemy?
At this time, only Li Honghui, Zhang San, Xu Qi, and the hidden guards who received them knew the inside story, and their eyes met, and they seemed to notice the difference in this trial.
"What's in the box?" Feng Che induces step by step.
"......" is a matter of Li Honghui, and Li Hongyi still chose to remain silent in the end.
At such a critical moment, Li Hongyi was silent. Even if Feng Che is not in a hurry, those curious people below will also be in a hurry. Old General Song Qi was the first to jump out and interject, and he said eagerly: "General Li, say it quickly." ”
"yes, say it quickly." Xu Lei also urged. He couldn't understand why Li Hongyi wanted to keep Shao An's secret?
"General Li, please answer truthfully." Feng Che asked unhurriedly and very calmly.
Li Hongyi really hesitated. He turned his head to look at his younger brother Li Honghui, and then at Xu Lei, not knowing whether to say it or not. However, when Pei Shaojun saw Li Hongyi's anxious appearance, he immediately thought about it, and guessed: "Is there any important minister involved, it is inconvenient to say?" ”
Pei Shaojun was afraid that Shao An had violated some law and involved a certain official sitting there. So he euphemistically said that he could say it privately.
However, Li Hongyi, who was stunned, naturally couldn't hear Pei Shaojun's implied meaning, and shook his head very bluntly: "No." ”
Pei Shaojun: "......"
"Did Shao An do something that hurt heaven and reason and violated the law of the country, and the general couldn't bear to say it?" Said the Imperial Doctor who was interrogated together.
"No, Shao Xiang didn't do anything illegal." Li Hongyi was a little angry, why did Yushitai always target Shao An, he left Beijing, and he still held on.
The old general Song Qi was about to go crazy by Li Hongyi's spitting appearance, he patted the table and said: "Shao Xiang, whether he has done anything illegal, General Li, you must say it, so that everyone can know." ”
On one side is Shao An, and on the other side is Li Honghui. If you want to return Shao An's innocence, it will definitely make my brother's heart ache. Li Hongyi thought about it for a long time, and decided that he still wanted to return Shao An's innocence and temporarily wronged his younger brother.
Li Hongyi turned his head, glanced at Li Honghui worriedly, then faced Feng Che, gritted his teeth and said: "There is a note in the box, which says that Li Honghui is not my younger brother." ”
The change came so suddenly, just now I said Shao An, but it turned out to be Li Honghui again. Everyone looked at Li Honghui sitting in the audience in surprise. Li Honghui was only pale, but he did not say a word of rebuttal.
Some people have developed rich imaginations and began to speculate whether Li Honghui coveted Li Hongyi's property status and deliberately pretended to be in order to soar to prominence? As a result, there were already several generals in the hall, who cast a contemptuous look at Li Honghui. Even Xu Lei looked at his best friend for many years beside him in disbelief.
Zhang San and Xu Qi exchanged glances quickly, what is the situation, who assassinated Shao An, is it also someone who knows the inside story?
"Silence." Feng Che was shocked and said to Li Hongyi, "General, please continue." ”
"I believe that Li Honghui is my younger brother. The note lied to me. Li Hongyi tried his best to defend his younger brother, "So, I didn't believe the words in the box at all, and I didn't tell anyone." ”
Seeing that Li Hongyi had deviated from the topic, Feng Che had no choice but to interrupt him and asked, "What happened later?" How did Shao Xiang get hit by the arrow? ”
"I don't know about this." Li Hongyi thought about it for a while and said truthfully, "At that time, I didn't even know that Shao Xiang was also nearby, and I only found out after he was hit by an arrow." ”
"So, how did you find out that Shao Xiang was hit by an arrow?"
He called out to me. Li Hongyi suddenly remembered the scene back then, "At that time, he suddenly called my name. ”
"And then?"
Then I turned around...... And he was struck by an arrow and fell to the ground. ”
Feng Che's eyes widened suddenly, he felt as if he had touched the truth that had plagued him for many years, he stared at Li Hongyi with blazing eyes, and confirmed again: "That is to say, Shao Xiang called your name first, and then he was shot." ”
"Yes." Li Hongyi said firmly.
Sure enough, so it was, it turned out to be ...... So! Feng Che closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief. Now, all the clues have finally been strung together. Shao An, Li Hongyi, Xiang Party, Cardinal Party. Why have the two parties struggled for many years, but they did not distinguish between victory and defeat? And Shao An, as the leader of the Xiang Party, is always suddenly abnormal at critical moments, and he can never put the cardinal party to death. Moreover, no matter how fierce the struggle between the party and the cardinal party was, Li Hongyi was inexplicable and became the biggest beneficiary.
Now, the anomaly of all this has finally been explained in the most reasonable way. Feng Che looked at the ignorant Li Hongyi in the hall with sadness and heartache, but he had to reveal the bloody truth and give Shao An justice.
"General Lee." Feng Che said slowly, word by word, "Have you ever thought that maybe it was such a possibility: back then, someone sent a book to trick you into a remote grove, and then used the news in the box to make you feel confused. Then, take the opportunity to shoot you. If it weren't for Shao'an, you might have been shot with an arrow. Even if they don't die immediately, they will be abandoned in the grove and left unnoticed, and eventually, they will die of blood loss. ”
Everyone in the hall stared at Feng Che dumbfounded, this analysis was simply unprecedented, and there was no one in the future. The imagination is bold, unexpected, yet reasonable. Only the second monk Li Hongyi was puzzled and wondered: "However, that arrow was shot at Shao An." ”
"yes." Feng Che showed a wry smile, "Because at that time, Shao Xiang exposed himself in order to remind you. ”
"So...... So......" Li Hongyi was stunned and could figure out the cause and effect, and he said in disbelief, "You mean, Shao An...... He saved me? ”
This stunned man finally figured it out, and Feng Che showed an emotional smile for Shao An. Shao Xiang, the person you sacrificed your life to save, he finally knew.
If everyone still discussed in a low voice the first few times, the lobby at this time exploded instantly. Who can believe that the two people, who have always been incompatible and incompatible, will actually save each other at a critical moment. Back then, Li Hongyi's rescue of Shao An was a matter of course in the eyes of everyone. However, today, I was told that it was not Li Hongyi who saved Shao An, but Shao An, who saved Li Hongyi!
I thought I was an enemy, but I was a friend; thought it was harmless, but it was a hidden enemy.
I thought it was accidental, but it was premeditated; I thought it was the cause, but it was the effect!
How can people believe this, how dare they believe it?! A question arose in everyone's hearts at the same time, why, did Shao An save a political enemy who had been hostile to him for many years, Li Hongyi, the leader of the cardinal party?
