Chapter 518: Dingwu is not angry
After the incident in the Ming Palace, Zhang Bangli did not come to see Dingwu, but as soon as he got the news, he immediately took a few attendants and chased after him directly.
However, he knew very well that if such a big event happened, His Majesty must have gotten up at this moment, so after entering the palace, he didn't need to ask, so he came directly to the imperial study.
Sure enough, as soon as I arrived at the door of the imperial study, I saw that the room was already brightly lit, and His Majesty's guards were guarding all around.
Standing at the gate of the courtyard, he tidied up his appearance, took a deep breath, and then raised his feet to enter.
As soon as he was about to make a report, he saw that an attendant had already greeted him and invited him in.
"Your Majesty, how is your ...... mood at the moment" Zhang Bangli lowered his voice and inquired about the situation with the inner attendant.
When the waiter heard the sound, the corners of his mouth moved, but he just shook his head slightly, and walked in with his head down.
Seeing this, Zhang Bangli's heart tightened, and he didn't ask any more, and followed lightly.
When he came to the door of the inner room, Zhang Bangli's footsteps paused slightly, and his eyes quickly glanced into the room, but he saw Emperor Dingwu sitting quietly behind the desk, his eyes slightly closed, and one hand rubbing his temples lightly, looking as if he was pretending to sleep, without any signs of thunder and anger.
Zhang Bangli didn't dare to relax, and quickly glanced at the two waiters who were waiting in the room.
I saw that these two people were motionless, with their heads down, and they didn't even dare to breathe, and they could see the fear in their hearts at a glance.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhang is here!" At this time, the attendant who greeted him entered lightly, and his voice was cautious.
Emperor Dingwu rubbed his temple lightly, then slowly opened his eyes, looked directly at the door, saw Zhang Bangli's figure, but did not speak immediately, but after a pause, he waved his hand at the waiter.
Seeing this, the chamberlain hurriedly beckoned to the other two chamberlains, and the three of them bowed down and quickly exited the study.
Zhang Bangli settled down in his heart, and after the three attendants withdrew, he quickly stepped inside, and was about to bow down.
But I only heard the voice of Emperor Dingwu: "Excuse me." ”
Zhang Bangli had no choice but to give up, raised his eyes to look at Dingwu, only to see that Dingwu's eyes were fixed on him, he didn't dare to look at Dingwu, and hurriedly lowered his head and waited for the inquiry.
"You're going to chase it?" Emperor Dingwu's voice sounded for a while, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.
When Zhang Bangli heard this, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "Yes, after the minister learned that the Ming Wangfu broke the curfew at night, he was worried about the expansion of the situation, so he rushed immediately, but he was finally a step late, and when he arrived at the gate of the city, His Royal Highness had already forced open the city gate and went out of the city. ”
After a question and an answer, the study was quiet again.
Zhang Bangli waited for a while before he heard Emperor Dingwu speak again: "I know." ”
Hearing Emperor Dingwu's words so calm, Zhang Bangli was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Emperor Dingwu, but saw that he closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with one hand, his expression was still so calm.
Seeing this, Zhang Bangli couldn't help but wonder in his heart, according to his estimate, His Majesty has always been wary of King Ming, knowing that he dared to break into the curfew at night, and even broke into the city, the reaction was absolutely impossible.
He had already prepared in advance for the possibility of facing His Majesty's various reactions, but he didn't expect His Majesty to be like this, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
But fortunately, Emperor Dingwu was not silent for too long, so he spoke up again: "The sixth man suddenly made such a big move, what do you think?" ”
Zhang Bangli raised his head slightly, and looked at His Majesty's already calm expression, he became more and more suspicious in his heart, but this thought was pressed in his heart, and he hurriedly responded: "According to the patrol battalion report, the Ming Wangfu's nighttime curfew was caused by the attack on the princess and the anger of the Ming King. Zhang Bangli said in a deep voice.
Dingwu was silent when he heard this, but he suddenly opened his eyes and made a contemplative gesture.
Seeing this, Zhang Bangli continued: "It is reported that when the black-clothed guards were assembled, they directly unsheathed their long knives, and the killing intent was boiling. Then His Highness himself appeared, and although he did not say a word, he did not say a word, and went straight to action. The internal guards were even more face-to-face, and they were injured by His Highness's heavy hand. According to Neiwei, the momentum of His Royal Highness at that time was already cold and murderous. They had no doubt that if they had been forcibly blocked at that time, Mingfu Street would have been bloodied tonight. I saw with my own eyes that the guards were blood-stained and pale, and they didn't seem to be fake. ”
In the end, he still said good things for those internal guards, not because he was protective, but because he didn't want to add to His Majesty's anger and cause more trouble.
In today's situation, there are really not many people available to the country, that is, they don't do their best, but they can't help it, and it makes a big fuss, Your Majesty can vent his anger, but it is not good for the overall situation.
After looking at His Majesty's reaction and not seeing what he said, he continued: "After injuring the internal guard, His Highness didn't stop for half a minute, so he directly left the black-clothed guard and went to the city alone. Based on all this, we can see the anger and urgency of His Highness at that time. His Majesty felt that if something really happened to the princess, it would indeed be able to explain Her Highness's reaction at that time. However, the incident happened suddenly, and he didn't dare to judge what was going on, and his subordinates had already sent someone to investigate immediately. ”
After listening to this, Emperor Dingwu nodded, and suddenly picked up a document from the desktop and handed it to Zhang Bangli: "Look at this!" ”
Zhang Bangli took it with some doubts, and after opening it, he found that it was a secret report, which recorded the situation on the side of the six statues of Daomen.
Zhang Bangli naturally would not be surprised by His Majesty's special monitoring of the six Daomen Venerables, although he was also in charge of intelligence for the National Dynasty, but he knew that the intelligence line in His Majesty's hands was by no means relying on him alone.
Without thinking too much, he looked carefully, but only to see that what was reported was that this night, Yuqing, Taiqing, and the four people had changed to varying degrees.
"Those few people have all convened a secret meeting of their important personnel tonight, could it be that the attack on the princess has something to do with the Daomen?" After reading this secret report, Zhang Bangli's eyes suddenly flashed with suspicion.
With his wisdom, he naturally quickly sensed that what this secret report said should be deeply related to today's changes in the Ming Palace.
It's just that there is still little information, and he can't judge whether the attack on the princess is related to those families, thinking of this, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly looked at Dingwu, and his voice was cautious: "Your Majesty, if the princess is attacked, if it is really related to those families of Daomen, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the dynasty must prepare early." ”
At the time when the joint treaty had just been signed, if Daomen and Ming Wangfu fought a big battle, it would definitely affect the next flag battle policy.
However, just in an instant, a thought flashed in his mind, and he paused slightly, frowned, and said, "That's not right! Your Majesty, even if the attack on the princess is true, it should not be the work of those people from the Daomen, otherwise why would His Highness break out of the capital directly, instead of going directly to those people? ”
When Ding Wu heard this, he didn't speak, but his eyes were slightly thoughtful, and he nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Zhang Bangli's words, he picked up a document on the table again and handed it over, and said, "You look at this again." ”
Zhang Bangli didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took it, opened it and took a look, only to see that it was still about the information on the Daomen.
But the next moment, he suddenly shook in his heart, raised his head and glanced at His Majesty, Dingwu didn't look at him, but his eyes were slightly condensed, as if he was thinking about other things.
Zhang Bangli had to suppress his shock and continue to watch.
It turned out that this secret report was a supplement to the previous one, and he could think that His Majesty would definitely attach great importance to it when he learned that there was a change in the Ming Palace, and the six statues of the Daomen were different at the same time, and strictly ordered to find out the situation.
I don't know if the important chess pieces that were ambushed on the side of the Daomen were activated again, and this information came so timely, and what was recorded in it was the reason for the sudden movement of those people in the Daomen.
I saw that it was mentioned that this night, I suddenly received an urgent report from Shangqingshan and the princess, the princess was attacked in Shangqingshan, and she was in first aid, but I am afraid that the fetus in the womb will be difficult to protect and the situation is very critical!
The princess was attacked while pregnant, and Prince Ming was in trouble......
Zhang Bangli's hand holding the secret report trembled slightly, raised his head to look at Dingwu, and saw that Dingwu had come back to his senses and was silent.
It was also at this moment that Zhang Bangli knew why His Majesty was not furious at the Ming Wangfu for breaking the curfew at night and leaving Beijing today.
Regardless of whether the princess is a daughter of the Lin family or not, if she is pregnant, the fetus in her womb is Your Majesty's own grandson after all, and if the grandson is in trouble, Your Majesty will no longer like King Ming, but she will choose to forgive his forbidden behavior at this time.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Your Majesty believes that the little prince will definitely be able to be auspicious and turn evil into good fortune!" Zhang Bangli bowed.
"The little prince?" When Ding Wu heard this, he muttered softly at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes softened for a moment, but then he regained his depth, slowly stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, and said softly: "I don't think it was done by the Daomen, they are still in the capital, and they don't dare to attack my children and grandchildren." And depending on the situation, the princess's side should have temporarily stabilized the situation, and the Daomen side was also caught off guard by this, so who would do it? What is the purpose of attacking her? ”
When Zhang Bangli heard this, he also put his mind on this, and also frowned: "Princess Ming is from the Lin family, and the joint anti-barbarian incident was first used as an opportunity for the Ming family to take the opportunity to bring up the proposal of the warlord and the dynasty to join forces to resist the enemy. Before the treaty was reached, the existence of Princess Ming was indeed of great significance, as long as she was there, the warlords such as the Guo Dynasty and the Lin family, there would be an excuse for buffering. Before the treaty was reached, the purpose of those who wanted to attack the princess was nothing more than to disrupt the situation and destroy the union. However, now, it is obviously too late to move Princess Ming to interfere with the general trend. The general trend has been decided, and it is no longer up to Princess Ming's life and death to be controlled. ”
Emperor Dingwu's eyes flickered a few times, but he suddenly said, "Did you say it was done by a forest thief?" ”
Zhang Bangli was stunned when he heard this, and opened his mouth wide, but he was choked by these words, and said after a while: "This ...... His Majesty suspects that it was the Lin family? ”
In the end, Zhang Bangli still didn't know what to say, so he could only say a word of nonsense.
Emperor Dingwu glanced at him, as if he knew that he didn't approve, but he ignored him, his eyes narrowed slightly: "This thief is the most cunning, don't you still think that he has any blood and blood family affection, when he fled the capital, how many family members were not abandoned by him?" A shameless person who doesn't even care about his parents' spiritual position, what despicable thing can't be done? I think that the more no one thinks it is him, but he is the most likely to do it. As you said, the joint treaty has been reached, and the life and death of Princess Ming are irrelevant, so he dares to move Lin Suyin, as for the motive, it is very likely to frame others, such as planting Daomen, and provoking the relationship between the sixth child and Daomen. It may also be to frame me, as we all know, I don't like Lin Suyin, now that the negotiations are over, I don't need to endure it anymore, and it's not strange to kill her to vent my anger. In this way, it not only destroys my reputation, but also provokes me and the sixth child. In short, no matter who framed it, and whether there was evidence or not, it would always be good for the forest thief to make the sixth man suspect some people more and make enemies with some people. ”
