Seeing his decisive admission, Emperor Wei rushed to his throat with a faint anger in his chest, and he snorted coldly: "You admit it very quickly? ”

Jiang Chengyi folded his hands, straightened his waist, looked at the Son of Heaven, and replied, "Your Majesty, the minister has mentioned it to you." The courtier's sister sneaked into Guangxin in order to obtain evidence of Song Zong's smuggling law. And why the Marquis of Huaiyin appeared in Guangxin remains to be studied. The minister's sister had already mentioned this matter in the letter sent to the minister's family before April.

According to the letter, the situation that night was dangerous and frightening. If it weren't for the fact that the Marquis of Huaiyin happened to appear in Guangxin and saved the life of the minister's sister, the minister would probably not be able to see the little sister now. At the time of the incident, the minister believed that the Marquis of Huaiyin had a life-saving grace for the little sister, so the minister did not mention this matter to Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, if it weren't for admiring Your Majesty's fame, you would never have come to Luoyang with General Chengda. Because of the minister's decision, the courtier's sister fell into the trap set by the Marquis of Huaiyin and was forced to marry into his mansion, which was already heartbroken. And because of the ministers, they agreed to go to the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion to inquire about the news for the ministers and His Majesty.

She was originally a woman, if she hadn't entered Luoyang with her ministers, she would have married a good family early at this time, taught her husband and children, and lived a quiet and peaceful life.

If Your Majesty now blames her for not being able to find out useful news for the past year, or is suspicious of the minister.

Then the ministers are not willing to defend anything. It's just that in such a frightened day and need to be explained again and again, the minister is not willing to settle. If Your Majesty allows it, the ministers are willing to return all your Majesty's gifts, strip off the brocade clothes, and then return them to the rivers and lakes. ”

Jiang Chengyi had no fear, he knew that although Emperor Wei was now afraid of guarding against him, he had long been inseparable from the power of the Water Pavilion, and he would never dismiss him because of this.

He said it so confidently that Emperor Wei could not refute it.

This young man wearing a dragon robe with a pattern of Xuanyi had a very bad face.

He stared at Jiang Chengyi's face, and suddenly laughed: "Jiang Mengzhi, you really dare to speak." Do you think that if you threaten you with dismissal, I will be able to spare you for not reporting it? If so, you told me earlier. Maybe things weren't as hard to fix as they are now. The Marquis of Huaiyin manipulated the momentum of the Jing Governor and Guard, which was originally a crime. If I had known earlier, I could have sent someone to investigate earlier, and if I had grasped this handle, the Huai Wangfu would have been more restrained. But now, because things have been delayed again and again, it is difficult to find empirical evidence. I have missed such an opportunity in vain, can't I question you? ”

Jiang Chengyi retorted: "Your Majesty, don't you know... King Huai is strict with the Marquis of Huaiyin? He's more afraid of the Elite Guard than you. If this incident occurred in the same month, not only would King Huai not prevent His Majesty from going to investigate, but he might even facilitate the matter and profit from it, turning Jingduwei into his own use. If the minister did not tell His Majesty about this matter, he was unwilling to let King Huai take advantage of this loophole without conclusive evidence. Nowadays, whether it is Linhe or Guangxin, there is no evidence that the Marquis of Huaiyin collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, and there is no evidence that can directly prove that this matter is related to King Huai. If you only bring down one Huaiyin Marquis, it will be of no use to your Majesty. And at this time, the Jing Du Wei is in the hands of the Marquis of Huaiyin, and the King of Huai will have some scruples, if one day, the power of the Jing Du Wei will be transferred to the hands of the Marquis of Changshan or the King of Ming. Your Majesty, your situation... It's going to be tougher. ”

Emperor Wei was irrefutable.

The relationship between Ning Zheng and Ning Nan is not good, this is a fact that everyone from the nobles to the commoners of the Great Wei is aware of.

Although now, Ning Zheng is fighting for Ning Nan above the court and arguing fiercely with Deng Fu, but only because now whether it is the Song Zong case or the battle of Linhe is inseparable from Huaiguo, he will defend it.

How bad is the relationship between the two of them?

The streets and alleys of the capital will be commented on by the word Qinglou Tavern: water and fire are incompatible.

Huai Wang Ning Zheng scolded Ning Nan for being worried. Huaiguo should be in affairs, and Ning Nanwu has never had a chance to touch it. It can be said that there is no real power.

The Son of Heaven was silent for a long time, and said with a blue face: "If you continue to argue, I am afraid that in the next hour, I can only let you kneel in the hall to discuss matters." ”

Emperor Wei himself knew in his heart that what Jiang Chengyi said was true.

Ning Nanwei has no real power in his hands, and he has almost no right to participate in the secrets of the Huai Wangfu. Jiang Chengjia is in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, even if he uses beauty to confuse people, he can't get any useful news.

Jiang Chengyi listened to his words and knew that Emperor Wei himself had figured out this matter, so he let go of his hanging heart.

The young man in front of him brushed his sleeves and left, walking quickly towards the hall.

Jiang Chengyi hurriedly got up from the ground and followed closely.

When I entered the inner hall, I saw the prince and Dou Yueqian standing on top of the hall, staring at the forbidden door.

Jiang Chengyi entered, then saluted the prince, and bowed slightly to Dou Yueqi.

Emperor Wei spoke at this time: "The extra number of etiquette will be waived." I have summoned the three of you today to discuss a thorough investigation of Linhe and Guangxin. ”

The crown prince, Dou Yueqi, and Jiang Chengyi turned around at the same time to look at Emperor Wei. Fly Lu

Recently, the court has been talking about this matter. I have been talking about it for four or five days, but there is no result. As soon as the courtiers' recitals passed through the hands of my imperial uncle, and when they arrived at me, they were left with the remarks of his party. I have not seen a single sheet of the recitals that support a thorough investigation. I know that it will be fruitless to discuss this matter any longer, so I summoned you here to let the three of you come up with a decision. ”

Dou Yueqian arched his fist and reported, and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, now that the regent Huai Wang and his party do not want Zongzheng to go to Linhe to investigate, why might Your Majesty order the ministers and others to go to the secret investigation of the affairs of the command palace and the details of the battle of Linhe on the grounds of thoroughly investigating Song Zongguangxin Jishitang?" ”

He knew that Emperor Wei would summon all three of them to the council hall today, and he intended to order the three of them to go to the border of Jingzhou.

Emperor Wei said with a gloomy face: "I do have this intention, if Qing and others are willing to resist the opinions of the ministers, after the case is concluded, I will be rewarded." ”

Jiang Chengyi and Dou Yueqian stepped forward at the same time and said, "The ministers are willing to serve Your Majesty, and they will definitely investigate this case!" ”

Emperor Wei nodded his head and said: "On this trip to Jingzhou, I want to order the prince to preside over the trial, and order him to investigate and examine the case carefully. Prince, would you like to go? ”

Ning Wuheng on the side had been waiting for Emperor Wei's words for a long time, and when he heard it at this moment, he immediately stepped forward and replied: "Erchen is naturally willing to share his father's worries!" ”

The three of them responded without hesitation, and Wei Diqi's face finally eased, and he said with satisfaction: "In this case, Qing and the others will take advantage of the early spring to set off for Linhe immediately, so as not to waste any more time." The more this matter drags on, the more difficult it is to investigate. ”

Jiang Chengyi didn't expect Emperor Wei to be so anxious, and he was even more worried about Ning Nan in his heart.

Dou Yueqian is not a person who is easy to fool, and he has a stubborn and upright temperament, if he really finds any clues from the battle of Linhe, he will definitely not let it go easily.

Seeing Emperor Wei's posture, it seemed that he was determined to grab Ning Zheng's handle from Ning Nanwei, not only wanted to take away the control of Jing Duwei, but also took this opportunity to give King Huai a heavy blow.

Emperor Wei explained this matter to them over and over again.

Half an hour later, when the three of them came out of Nangong, their faces were a little pale and colorless, and their expressions were solemn and anxious.

When Jiang Chengyi and the prince walked from the palace corridor to the outer hall, they saw that the Nanling army was patrolling all over the palace, and they were extremely vigilant.

Walking to the apse of the South Palace, the prince somehow pulled him to the corner with a solemn and serious face, and dismissed the attendants who followed him and walked under the corridor.

Jiang Chengyi asked: "Does Your Highness have important matters to discuss privately with your ministers?" ”

The prince nodded, and wanted to speak, but he didn't know where to start, and he hesitated.

Jiang Chengyi frowned, and said, "If Your Highness is confused, or thinks that what you say is inappropriate, you can be silent." ”

The prince shook his head and sighed lightly, his expression became heavy: "Teacher... It's not that students don't think it's appropriate, it's that they don't know where to start. I wonder if you've ever heard of the name partridge? ”

Jiang Chengyi paused, his eyes fell on the young man's immature face, and said, "Partridge spy between China and North Korea? ”

Ning Wuheng nodded and said, "Exactly." This Chinese and North Korean spy has been lurking in our country for several years, and his whereabouts are ghostly. His father sent several spies to investigate, but he was never found.

However, recently, a secret music was presented in the western border of Guangzhou, which said that a corpse was found in a village near the border between China and North Korea and Wei, and this person was equipped with a jade pendant symbolizing the status of the Chinese and Korean royal family. The death was extremely tragic. This man bears a striking resemblance to the rumored Partridge, and has many secret letters on him, making it almost certain that he is the unpredictable Partridge.

is such a person who came and went without a trace, and now he died in the west of Guangzhou. ”

Jiang Chengyi was surprised: "Partridge? He's dead? ”

Ning Wuheng nodded solemnly and said seriously: "When the students heard about this today, they were also full of horror. This person is treacherous, clever and cunning, and the Great Wei royal family once sent the top secret agents to investigate and capture him, and he also lost contact. Now he died in the west of Guangzhou, and it happened to be an incident when the Meng disaster mission went to Nanxiang, which is really terrifying. ”

Jiang Chengyi was silent for a moment and asked, "For this matter... What does His Highness think? ”

Ning Wuheng replied: "The occupation of Linhe by Meng Disaster, the former Wuhu King, is quite strange. When he was a year, Lord Linga told the students the causes of many riots in Ringa in late autumn last year. The students learned that not only Chinese and North Korean people were involved in those riots, but also Wuhu people. The students wondered if the riots were a conspiracy between China and North Korea and Wuhu, was the later occupation of Linhe also a joint plot by the two? It was only because of a dispute between the two that the partridge died in the west of Guangzhou. ”

Before the words fell, Ning Wuheng hesitated again: "It's just... This person's identity has not been confirmed. Although he had many secret letters on him, the jade pendant, which symbolized the identity of the Chinese and Korean royal family, made the spies investigating the case in Guangzhou suspicious. The identity of the partridge is not as much as the Chinese and Korean royal family..."
